Help Buyers Fall in Love with Your Home for Sale
Love is not just for Valentines Day! When prospective home buyers go looking for a home, they are looking for more than just a "house" – they are looking for a "home". This home, this "nest", is a place for family and friends, for memories to be made, for a new beginning or a new chapter in their life's story. It is an emotional purchase, not just a logical or financial purchase. You can help sell your home by creating an atmosphere for "love' to happen!
We think many home sellers underestimate the value of "staging" a home so that your buyer will fall in love. It doesn't mean spending a lot of money. It's the simple things that can make a big difference.
It's hard to know exactly what will trigger that feeling for a buyer, but there certainly are easy steps you can take to help welcome your buyer, and let them "move in" emotionally.
First, clear a path. From the front door into each and every room, make it easy for the buyer to walk through your home, to stop in each room and appreciate the room.
Second, open the window coverings and look outside. What is the home buyer seeing? Sometimes adding some "wall art" to an exterior fence or wall can put a smile on the buyer's face and create a more appealing visual look. Maybe a trellis with a vine growing on it would be better to look at than a fence or wall. And – remember to leave the window coverings open when you have a showing so that the buyer will appreciate the views and light that the windows offer.
Third – light and bright sells homes! Make sure rooms are well lit, leaving lights on if necessary. Sometimes we suggest leaving a light or lights on timers to help in dark rooms, or during times of the day when there is less natural light coming into a room.
Then, is your home comfortable? Soft music, a comfortable temperature and fresh flowers set the stage for the "oohs" and "aahs" from your home buyer. Fresh baked cookies? Sure! That wonderful, homey smell of fresh baked cookies can be very homey and relaxing to a buyer. You want the buyer to love your home – and to want to make it their home. They will – if you help them!
Finally, when a potential buyer is coming to see the house, we suggest that you leave and let the home buyer view the property with their agent. Buyers don't feel comfortable when the seller is also in the house. Let the buyer have a chance to relax, to vision themselves living in the home – their home.
So now you have the tools for a great love affair – between the home buyer and your home. Let the romance begin!

Pricing Factors of Production & Economic Rent
Three machines are employed in an isolated area. They each produce 2,000 units of output per month, the first requiring $20,000 in raw materials, the second $25,000, and the third $28,000.

Sharing the spirit
CHRISTMAS has always been a complicated affair for Megan Towns.
Growing up in a separated family, she had to wait until the age of nine before her first experience of spending Christmas with both birth parents.
"It was when I was nine that we started making everyone come to Christmas... there was no ifs, no buts - everyone had to make it," Ms Towns said.
While the family Christmas ideal might be a picture perfect family sitting down to share a meal, the modern reality is not so simple.
With roughly 20% of families on the Northern Rivers listed as single-parented in the 2011 Census, Christmas can be painful and confusing - or at the very least chaotic.
But for Ms Towns, Christmas is all about family seeing family - whatever the emotional and practical complications.
Now that she is also separated from the father of her two teenage sons, Brodie and Jayden, Christmas can include up to five separate family branches all coming together over 24 hours.
But the family somehow makes it work. "Over the years it's blending a lot better," Ms Towns said.
"If there is a bit of awkwardness or if someone's not talking to someone else, it all just fits in the one lounge room," she smiled.
"It's all about making sure the kids get to see both their parents."
Family law expert Heather McKinnon said the first holiday season after a separation or divorce was often difficult and families needed to plan ahead with the best interests of the children in mind.
"Parents often feel guilty that they can't lavish their children with expensive gifts because of post-separation financial pressures, but what we see from our clients is that children care much more about time with both their parents than money."
Make sure your holiday plans are clear and agreed to by both parents - write them down if necessary.
Separate any feelings of guilt and loss from the child's need to see their other parent.
Seek counselling if you are feeling emotionally overwhelmed. Review any court orders to make sure your plans comply.
CHRISTMAS is a time for celebration, but it's also famous for excess.
We all know the frenzy of the festive season and the surplus consumption it brings.
Australians are predicted to spend more than $10 billion on food in December, yet 35% of what we send to landfill is food waste.
Recycling advocate Planet Ark's website report revealed that within Lismore City Council alone last December, searches for food scrap recycling advice soared by 686%.
To reduce waste this Christmas and think clearly about consumption, here are some festive tips:
- Buy good quality decorations that can be re-used - or make your own.
- Give low-impact gifts such as experiences or practical, durable items that meet a need.
- Use paper wrapping (rather than foil or plastic) then re-use or recycle it.
- Prevent food wastage - only open what you need, serve smaller portions, store and use left-overs.
- Compost or worm farm your unavoidable food scraps.
- Flatten aluminium cans, and boxes to save space in your recycling bin.
- Recycle old mobile phones, TVs, computers or printer cartridges.
- Give a recharger pack with any battery-operated gifts - it'll save money and reduce the gift's impact.
CHRISTMAS is meant to be a very merry time of year for everyone, so don't let beloved pets slip your mind.
Richmond Valley Council's general manager John Walker said it was important that dog owners ensure pets are securely confined to their property or on a leash when in public as wandering animals maybe become lost, injured, or become the cause of another accident.
He said if not micro-chipped, a wandering dog may find itself spending Christmas at the pound.
"It's also the time of year for puppies and kittens to make perfect gifts for family and friends," he said.
"If you do wish to gift an animal, please think of the Casino Pound, where many dogs and cats, puppies, kittens and adults are waiting. "And of course, ensure that the recipient of the gift is ready to take on the responsibility of pet ownership.
"It's a sad reality that at this time of year, along with all animal welfare groups resources being stretched, too many animals are accommodated at the Casino Pound.
"If homes can't be found for these animals, council has no other option but to consider euthanasia for long-term stayers."

If you dislike your full time job and having to work under another person, you might dream of one day being able to be your own boss and being able to start your own business. Most young people dream of being able to have their own business but they are usually not sure where to start and they are often too afraid to give up their full time jobs and take the risk of starting a business that may and may not work out. However, we live in the age of internet which means that you can now start your own business online from the comfort of your own home without having to give up the financial security of your full time job which makes your business is essentially risk free. You can continue working at your fulltime job and work on your business during your free time after you have returned home from work or during your weekend which will bring extra money to help you and even in cases when no money does come in from your business you can be assured in knowing that you still have a fixed salary coming in at the end of the month.
The roles that you will have to play
Starting a small home business means that you will have to play many roles in your business from accountant to stock taker and many more. If, for example, you are starting a small home bakery you will not only have to do your own advertising, take in your orders, maintain your calendar, do the baking but you will also have to deliver the cakes to your customers playing the role of a delivery boy as well as the role of an accountant after that. Link here http://www.stock-taker.com.au/our-branches/ can offer a high standard service that can cover your needs.
As your business develops, you will have to hire a stocktaking services company to maintain your stocks for you as you may not always have the time with your full time job and the rising number of orders and customers coming in.With any business it is vital that you maintain strict accounts because you will be liable to show these accounts to the government if they are requested and you will also be liable for paying taxes as your business increases.
Of course, you do not need to worry too much about having to pay taxes because in many countries you will be given a tax free allowance and only be expected to pay taxes after you have passed that threshold which may take some time. This said however, you will be liable to prove to your government that you have not passed this threshold and that you are still earning a small amount of profit and therefore are not tax liable.

I was very impressed after speaking to Dundrum GIY group in the Goat, Goatstown, recently, to then be brought by local GIY Champion, Shane Maher, to see a famous school garden in Stillorgan nearby. Teacher Caroline Jolly has been the inspirational driving force behind developing this educational oasis. Caroline is a protégé of Marino Institute of Education lecturer, Paddy Madden, author of 'Go Wild at School'.
The grown-up community helps the students, especially during the school holidays in keeping St. Brigid's School Garden looking great all year round. Daily attention is needed also for the hens. Food and water for the hens is one responsibility, but so is protecting poultry from the increasingly brazen foxes in this suburban environment. Amazingly, a honeybee brood box was set up empty and after a few months a swarm took up residence in the midst of the wildflower meadow. Seeds for this wildlife oasis came from www.irishseedsavers.ie in Scariff, Co. Clare.
It is important to also appreciate the legacy of fertility which underpins the thriving nature of this school garden. The site was before now part of the Rectory garden for St. Brigid's Church of Ireland in Stillorgan. A previous Rector kept a couple of donkeys there in years gone by. Geoff, Caroline's uncle and godfather and Patsy who also works in the school garden, expressed their appreciation for all the fertility which the donkeys bequeathed to the present generation of young horticulturalists. Good fertility and soil structure is being maintained now by a fine three bay composting system which decomposes a diverse mixture of plant matter and poultry poo.
My sincere thanks to Caroline and crew for the very kind bottle of elderflower champagne, old coffee grinds for deterring slugs and the finest of St. Brigid's hens' eggs. One of the bigger eggs had a delicious double yoke. Congratulations to Shane and all at Dundrum GIY for all their work in lending a hand whenever required in this wonderfully inspirational outdoor living classroom.

Archaean granite-greenstone evolution
The aims of the project are: (i) to determine the relationship between mafic and felsic volcanism, (ii) to test whether greenstones can be correlated across terrane boundaries, and (iii) to develop a model for the evolution of 2.7 Ga granite-greenstone terranes in the light of the new dates and geochemical data, and if possible, their relationship to gold mineralization.
The centrepiece of the project will be the production of the first ultra-high precision dates of zircons and baddeleyites extracted from Archaean greenstones of the Yilgarn craton, Western Australia. The expected precision is better than ± 0.5 Myr compared with ±5 Myr current available through SHRIMP. The speed at which the crust evolved we can be used to test hypothesis for evolution of granite-greenstone terranes.
The project will also involve Hf isotopes in zircon by LA-ICP-MS, oxygen isotope analysis of zircons by SHRIMP, Nd and Sr isotope analyses of rocks and minerals, and trace element analyses.
The project is funded by ARC and forms part of a larger Monash-ANU project.
The student will carry out ultra-high precision dating and isotopic analyses. This will require high level of laboratory aptitude, and sufficient knowledge of geochemistry for interpretation of geochronological and isotopic data. The project will also involve working in the field at several different mining camps in Western Australia, mainly with diamond drill core, so you will need to be a good observer.

It really doesn't seem like it's been three years since the news of former UFC middleweight champion Evan Tanner's sudden and tragic passing while out on a solo camping excursion to the desert west of Palo Verde, California sent shockwaves through the MMA community.
Tanner, who was open about his fights with alcohol abuse and his personal demons is said to have called his manager, John Hayner to let him know that his dirt bike had run out of gas a few miles from his camp and that his trip was going well besides the mishap. When he failed to answer calls from friends the next day, police were dispatched and after a brief aerial search, located Tanner's camp and his remains a few miles away from his abandoned motorcycle.
Hayner told us at the time that the troubled 37-year-old had turned his life around thanks to a move to Oceanside and the rebirth of his career in the UFC where he recently re-signed. Tanner was hoping that the desert trip, which he planned for months and did hours of research for, would leave him feeling rejuvenated and ready to build on the mistakes he made in his last bout — a hard-fought split-decision loss to Kendall Grove at the TUF 7 finale that June.
"He was in a real positive state of mind, he wasn't having any drinking problems or any of those types of problems. He was really feeling good about his life," Hayner told CagePotato.com. Here was a famous UFC fighter who didn't have enough food to eat at times. I'd call him just to make sure he had food in his fridge, but he never let it get him down. Starting over was kind of a theme in his life. He hardly ever lived in the same place more than six months," Hayner said. "He moved out to Vegas and then found it too shallow for him, so he moved out to Oceanside and had a great place, he was learning to surf, and he was really enjoying his day-to-day life."
In an eerie bit of foreshadowing, Tanner spoke about the fact that he may not return from the trip in one SPIKE TV blog post before rebuking the opinions of reporters and fans who thought his planned expedition was reckless and dangerous in another.
"I've been gathering my gear for this adventure for over a month, not a long time by most standards, but far too long for my impatient nature. Being a minimalist by nature, wanting to carry only the essentials, and being extremely particular, it has been a little difficult to find just the right equipment," he wrote. "I plan on going so deep into the desert, that any failure of my equipment, could cost me my life. I've been doing a great deal of research and study. I want to know all I can about where I'm going, and I want to make sure I have the best equipment."
(Video courtesy of YouTube/onceiwasachampion)
"It seems some MMA websites have reported on the story, posting up that I might die out in the desert, or that it might be my greatest opponent yet, etc. Come on, guys. It's really common down in Southern California to go out to the off-road recreation areas in the desert about an hour away from LA and San Diego," Tanner later explained. "So my plan is to go out to the desert, do some camping, ride the motorcycle, and shoot some guns. Sounds like a lot of fun to me. A lot of people do it. This isn't a version of 'Into the Wild.'"
Unfortunately it turned out to be exactly that.
RIP Evan Tanner. Believe in the power of one.

Abington Memorial - Dixon School of Nursing???
Anyone know anything about the program? I have sent off for information, and I am trying to make an appt to get info, but I haven't heard anything yet.
So I thought I'd reach out to you...also, would it make since to to RN program there, then do part-time RN to BSN program elsewhere?
About BelleRN2B
Joined: Aug '06; Posts: 13Sep 21, '06I just started the RN program at Abington in August. It's a hard program to get into because they get so many applications and only have 60 seats for the day program and 60 for the evening program. However, it is a wonderful school and I love it so far. If you have any specific questions please feel free to PM me.Aug 7, '07I'm working at Abington Hospital right now while I'm in nursing school (not at Abington) and I have seen signs around the hospital advertising that for the class of 2006 they had 100% first time pass rate on the NCLEX which is very impressive!Aug 9, '07Hi there;
I live five minutes fro the school, but decided for the lenght of time the program is and all of the pre-reqs they require, i will be attending the program at Montgomery Community College for my ADN. That will put me closer to a BSN if I wanted to go further with my education.
Good luck.:spin:Aug 10, '07I currently work at Abington...graduated from Mont CO. Both are great programs I picked Mont Co becuase they had summer clinicals and I would have been done sooner (and they are alot cheaper)
Either one is a great choiceSep 15, '07I graduated from Abington in May of 2007~ they way the tuition works, is that it's about $7,000/year for two years, but if you work at the hospital for two years after graduation, you're tuition is forgiven and you don't owe anything. You pretty much go to nursing school for free!
I loved it, by the way. You get very close to the staff since the class sizes are so small, and in 2006, they had a 100% pass rate on the NCLEX for both the day and evening/weekend programs.
If anyone has any questions about Abington's nursing school, feel free to ask me!

From Huntsville, Alabama, USA:
My 11 year old daughter is very thin, 30th percentile for weight and 80th for height. I had noticed this summer that whenever she ate sugar, she got extremely nauseous and stayed this way for about an hour afterwards. My friend's daughter has type 1 diabetes. While they were over swimming at our pool, I asked my friend to check my daughter's blood sugar. I was shocked to see it was 217 mg/dl [12.1 mmol/L]. We had eaten about an hour and a half earlier. We waited another hour and rechecked; it was 130 mg/dl [7.2 mmol/L]. I called my pediatrician to run it by him and he wanted to see her that afternoon. When we got there, her blood sugar was normal and she had no ketones or sugar in her urine. He sent us home and had us continue to monitor her sugars. The next day she was 122 mg/dl [6.8 mmol/L] fasting and 196 mg/dl [10.9 mmol/L] after breakfast. I called him back and he immediately contacted a pediatric endocrinologist.
I took my daughter to the pediatric endocrinologist two days later. They did an oral glucose tolerance test which came back normal. So, in the meantime we are testing her only after fasting overnight. Her readings have been as follows 110 mg/dl [6.1 mmol/L], 115 mg/dl [6.4 mmol/L], 128 mg/dl [7.1 mmol/L], 120 mg/dl [6.7 mmol/L], 119 mg/dl [6.7 mmol/L], 113 mg/dl [6.3 mmol/L], 118 mg/dl [6.6 mmol/L] and 117 mg/dl [6.5 mmol/L]. The doctor said to call only if we had a couple of readings over 126 mg/dl [7.0 mmol/L] and, as you can see, we have only had one, but, from everything I've read, anything over 110 mg/dl [6.1 mmol/L] is a little too high.
Do you think it's possible that this could be the early stages of type 1 and it will further progress with time? Or, do you think she could be on the road to type 2 even though she is very thin and active? Or, that this is absolutely nothing at all to worry about?
You are correct to be concerned. Your pediatrician and the pediatric endocrinologist responded correctly and quickly. The values you report are definitely not normal, but they do not require medication or insulin at this moment. Whether or not this will progress is not so clear. Under such circumstances, it may be wise to get antibody tests such as islet cell and GAD-65 antibodies to see if there is already evidence of islet inflammation. If positive, this would portend eventual beta cell demise and need for insulin. If negative, this is not so helpful since antibodies are only positive about 60 to 80% of the time even in type 1 diabetes. Or, a negative set of antibodies could indicate type 2 diabetes, MODY, etc. There are some new genetic tests available, particularly if there is a strong family history of diabetes in several generations. I think that it is wise to continue to watch blood glucose levels closely and would encourage you to stay in contact with the diabetes team so that they can help you/them figure out what else might need to be done. Avoiding simple and concentrated sugar foods/drinks would certainly be prudent at this point as well.

Blizzard probably uses the character model to generate NPCs for the outdoor world, same thing we've seen with the Lightforged Draenei on Argus before they have been added as an Allied Race.

The fall season of 2018's Arena World Championship is bringing two new BfA arenas to the table, Mugambala and Hook Point, set in Zandalar and Boralus, respectively. 6 cups await this season, with each bringing a $10,000 prize pool and a whole bunch of AWC points, so check out the full schedule and requirements to join in the competition:
Arena Fall Season (source)
The Arena World Championship is a 3v3 tournament that takes place in the iconic battlegrounds of Azeroth. In this Fall Season, we are introducing Mugambala and Hook Point, two asymmetrical arenas which were released in the Battle for Azeroth expansion.
Mugambala is set in Zandalar, a region that was once a part of ancient Kalimdor and the birthplace of troll civilization. This arena features an upper level, and a lower level with a large pillar in the middle. Hook Point is an area in Boralus, where only the bravest battle for the right to call themselves true Kul Tirans! It features four pillars for players to dance around—one with a shark hanging from it—and two smaller pillars. This season, there are six Cups up for grabs—three in North American and three in Europe—each with a prize pool of $10,000 and an increased amount of AWC points on offer, more than any season this year!
No Arena ranking is required for teams of three to four people to sign up. Once you are deemed eligible to compete, you will have access to the Tournament Realm, where you and your teammates will have the ability to create whatever class, talent, and gear combinations you see fit, to practice taking down all who oppose you! If you think you have what it takes, sign up here, and check out the table below for the cutoff times for each of the Fall Season Cups.
Remember, the top three point-earners of the year from North America and Europe will earn a spot at the Arena World Championship Global Finals at BlizzCon, where they will fight on the biggest WoW esports stage of the year for their share of the $280,000 prize pool.
If you're coming back to World of Warcraft for Battle for Azeroth and want to see how the pros handle the new PvP talent system, join us! The Top 8 from each Cup in North America and Europe will be broadcast live on Twitch. Watch as the greatest heroes from across North America and Europe adapt to the changes—it might give you some tips and tricks for your own Arena adventures!

Today's roundup of blue posts covers Allied Race boosting through Recruit-a-Friend, the Azerite system, Flight Master's Whistle working in Legion zones & more.
Allied Race Recruit-a-Friend Boost
If your play an Allied Race and your friend grants you levels through RaF, you will be ineligible to receive Heritage Armor.
Blizzard (Source)
Receiving granted levels from Recruit A Friend would make the character ineligible for the heritage armor set.
If your friend grants levels to one of your Allied Race characters, it makes your character ineligible to receive the Heritage Armor.
If you grant levels to one of your friend's characters, that won't effect your eligibility for the armor.
But only the recruited player accumulates levels that can be granted, so that would be your friend. If they were to grant any of those levels onto your Void Elf, that would make your Void Elf ineligible for the armor.
Azerite System Underwhelming
It's too early to consider the Azerite system underwhelming. Quest gear only contains generic traits and Azerite Armor from raids has better traits.
Blizzard (Source)
Surely im not the only one who feels this way? The azerite gear is essentially the netherlight crucible. Most traits are passive and boring. Does it get better as the xpac goes on or..?
Some of the default Azerite items from questing don't have a lot of variety because you're still leveling up. Once you're at 120 and getting them from vendors, WQs, and dungeons you start seeing a lot more variety and some pretty neat stuff.
Like there's one for Ret that reduces the cooldown of Divine Steed and it gives a speed buff to your entire raid when you use it. Which I thought was pretty rad.
It's definitely early, but I'm eager to see how it plays out and how this system shapes up as well as what else we might do with it. It has potential, and I'm pretty excited about that alone as a player.
Unintended Conquest Cap
A bug in the Battle for Azeroth pre-patch caused players to receive Conquest from certain PvP activities, but that was never intended outside of Seasons.
Blizzard (Source)
With the Battle for Azeroth Pre-Patch, we incurred a bug that caused some PvP activities to reward Conquest. Conquest was never intended to be accessible while the season is not active, and while Conquest did appear for some players on their Character Currency tab, it wasn't useable. There aren't any items that can be exchanged for it in-game right now.
We'll be deploying a hotfix soon that will change any activities that are currently awarding Conquest to award Honor instead.
When BFA Season 1 begins, players will start earning Conquest as planned. At the same time, we'll convert any unintended Conquest that players earned during the post-season to Honor or gold.
Additionally, new one-time PvP quests will get reset when BFA Season 1 begins. We want to make sure you can complete those quests to earn Conquest from them as intended. These quests are located in the same place where you turn in Conquest quests, so they should be easy to spot.
We apologize for any confusion this may have caused, and we're working to make the fixes and conversions as seamless as possible.
We look forward to everyone engaging with the new Conquest System upcoming in Season 1 of Battle for Azeroth! Click here to learn more.
Thank you! Flight Master's Whistle
Flight Master's Whistle will be upgraded to work in BfA zones when you unlock world quests. If you didn't play Legion or destroyed your whistle, you'll receive a new one that will work in Legion zones as well.
Blizzard (Source)
When you unlock Battle for Azeroth world quests, your Flight Master's Whistle gains the ability to work in the new lands. if you didn't play Legion or destroyed your whistle, you will receive a Flight Master's Whistle that works in Legion and Battle for Azeroth zones.

I usually sim my characters to get the best possible results. I enjoy the process quite a lot and since I reached 120, I wanted to find out the best build of the spec. (Note, I didn't want to find out what to play, but rather how my own build fares in comarison.) I rarely mind a 1-2% difference. If it goes above 2%, I really mind a change. What this thread is about is mainly to bring something in the attention of those who help making the class guides, especially the talent choices. To my surprise, I was awed to find out that certain talents outperform previous "Standard" choices in the endgame, probably due to the stat squish.
The Frost go-to build (top dps) would probably be along the lines of <Icy Talons / Cold Heart - Runic Attenuation - Frozen Pulse - Gathering Storm - Breath of Sindragosa>. What I found out primarily was that after the removal of legendaries, Cold Heart severely underperforms at most given situations resulting in a major dps drop due to the low mastery. Gathering Storm also suffers from the same problem and most of the times, Frostwyrm's Fury is better overall. The biggest surprise of them all, however, was that Inexorable Assault overperforms quite a lot, and is the first reason why I made the topic. I then started simming with the above in mind and I came across a build that some would not consider on par with top dog builds around the meta, which is the use of Horn of Winter which overperforms both its other two options when using the Breath build. Talent Sim can be seen here. Another intresting thing, which I loved, was that the 2nd best build uses Obliteration as a lvl 100 talent and no other build surpassed it (Other than the first one, obviously). So, I encourage frost players out there to give their other, less common talents a try. To the class guide author(s), I believe that the two "underdog" talents will earn their spot in the class guides.
Thank you for your time reading this.

Norwich, VT (PRWEB) July 11, 2007
Maponics, LLC - a mapping provider to 20% of the Fortune 500™ - announced today the full release of Maponics Neighborhood Boundaries™, a neighborhood map polygon database with the potential to significantly improve the way businesses offer local search. Now companies in local search, social marketing, real estate, and related Web 2.0 industries will be able to offer search filtering and mapping based upon the most user-friendly city geography unit - the neighborhood.
Socially and culturally, people think of city geography in terms of neighborhoods. Until now, the lack of affordable and accurate neighborhood map data has forced sites offering local search to filter searches by city name or ZIP Code™. For major cities, this has meant poorly targeted results spanning too broad or granular a geographic area. The result has been unsatisfied users and lost ad revenue. By offering the opportunity to search by neighborhood, websites will now be able to provide more intuitive, relevant results.
Covering hundreds of the top US cities, the Maponics Neighborhood Boundaries database includes all latitude and longitude coordinates for each neighborhood polygon. It is specifically designed for easy integration into Google™, Yahoo!®, or Microsoft® map mash-ups or into back-end data analysis applications. Unique features include:
- Hand-drawn neighborhood map polygons, not aggregations of ZIP Codes or Census Tracts
- Neighborhood boundaries validated by over 1000 real estate agents
- Continuous city neighborhood data maintenance
- Ongoing addition of new cities
- Delivery in shapefile, ASCII, or other formats for easy integration
- Many auxiliary tables relating neighborhood maps data to ZIP Codes, school districts, and more
A real estate site with Maponics Neighborhood Boundaries integrated - and properties tagged with neighborhood names - lets users filter results to see only those in the neighborhoods they care about. Combine this with neighborhood analytics for the "best" neighborhoods and a powerful value magnet has been created, one that draws users to the site again and again.
In the mobile world, imagine that a couple walking through SoHo in New York City gets a sudden craving for Indian food. With a mobile service backed by Maponics Neighborhood Boundaries, a search for restaurants in SoHo provides all the nearest SoHo options in an instant.
Maponics Neighborhood Boundaries offers several advantages over alternatives, including:
- Flexible licensing terms, to accommodate a wide variety of neighborhood map data applications
- Neighborhood boundaries that are based upon in-the-field analysis - not a statistical representation
- Commitment to excellence - Maponics is a full-service mapping company with a focus on providing high quality mapping and data
The result is far more accurate and much less work than compiling your own city neighborhood data in-house.
For more information about Maponics Neighborhood Boundaries, contact Maponics at 800-762-5158 or visit maponics.com.
Maponics, LLC
America's largest corporations entrust Maponics with their mapping and data needs - including 20% of the Fortune 500. Maponics is located in Norwich, Vermont, with customers throughout the U.S. and Canada.

ATHENS, Ala. (WHNT) - Tennessee Valley weather can be both beautiful and deadly.
While WHNT News 19 encourages you all to stay inside when tornado warnings sound. Safety is a top priority in emergency situations.
But there are always the few who take the opportunity to witness the force of mother nature.
"I got home from work, the storms were starting to get bad, and y'know the first thing to do is look outside," said Michael Mayer, an Athens resident.
Mayer took to his backyard with his camera, rolling just as the first tornado touched down in Athens.
In the video above you can see how close it was to his home. Once they could see debris flying through the air in the distance, he and his son took cover in their home's laundry room.
Mayer's home did not sustain any damage from the storm.

Supes seek funding for Cane Creek bridge repairs
Another closed Clay County bridge could be on the state's replacement list by early next year, but no one can say when money might be available to actually replace it.
County supervisors Thursday officially closed the 320-foot-long Cane Creek Bridge on Houston-Starkville Road after a federally-mandated inspection found it didn't meet new safety standards.
The center span is the biggest problem and that would cost about $300,000 to replace, County Engineer Bob Calvert told the Board of Supervisors. Replacing the entire bridge will cost $2 million or more, he said.
"We don't have the money, the state doesn't have the money. If we go ahead and it get it programmed, it will be 100 percent funding. When it will be funded is another issue. So many bridges have been closed in the state, funding is on a first-come, first-serve basis. We need to get our plans down there and on the shelf," the veteran engineer continued.
The timber bridge, which serves one mobile home in District 4, was inspected two weeks ago. It doesn't meet a variety of new safety standards, including being able to withstand an earthquake, Calvert told board members.
It is the third bridge closed in District 4 under the beefed up federal inspections. The others were on Lake Grove Road and Gilreath Road. Work on the $1.2 million replacement on Lake Grove Road is finishing up, and Supervisor Shelton Deanes was able to detour a much smaller bridge on Gilreath Road.
Supervisors shook heir heads as Calvert explained the crux of what have been statewide complaints about the inspections, which the Federal Highway Administration forced on the state because the federal agency determined Mississippi was dragging its feet on safety concerning the state's 2,300 wooden bridges.
"There is $31 million in the program and it's all going to inspections. They are paying these engineers $13,000 a bridge for inspections and paying us (local county engineers) $300 a bridge. I don't know where this is all going or how we can survive it," Calvert said, noting the job is easier for the federal inspectors because the local governments already have compiled the list of bridges and noted potential safety issues during previous inspections.
Supervisors also agreed to spend as much as $69,000 remaining in the county's fund with the Tennessee River Valley Water Management District for materials to repair Caradine Bridge. on Caradine Road just off Highway 47 in western Clay County.
Calvert said the the materials would cost between $50,000 and $70,000 and plans call for the concrete slabs to be removed, holes drilled into the limestone creek bed and new pilings installed and the slabs returned.
It's the same process used to repair the bridge on Main Street in West Point just east of Highway 45 Alternate, the engineer said.
The city completed a similar bridge for under $70,000, Calvert added.
The county lowered the weight limit on the bridge to be able to keep it open but must have it repaired by Dec. 21, under an order from the state. The county is spending $15,000 to build a short detour connecting Caradine Road to Highway 47 while the bridge work is being done.

A Cut Above AKA Gross Anatomy
Director: Thom Eberhardt
Screenwriter: Ron Nyswaner, Mark Spragg
Starring: Matthew Modine, Christine Lahti, Daphne Zuniga, Todd Field, Alice Carter
Release details: Touchstone Pictures, USA 1989, 105mins
Full detail: IMDb
Genre: Medical comedy
Rating: 3 out of 10
I'm a fan of medical films and TV series. I have even persevered with ER, against my own better judgement. And I liked Chicago Hope from the beginning, even before they made the very sensible move of adding Christine Lahti to their cast. I enjoyed Vital Signs, a medical comedy-drama based around the lives of med students, released around the same time as A Cut Above (known as Gross Anatomy in the US). But I didn't like this film.
A Cut Above follows Joe Slovak (Matthew Modine) through his first year at medical school. Joe is a coaster and a scam artist: he's smart enough to get by in life while doing the bare minimum and covering his shortcomings through telling people what they want to hear. I guess we're meant to find Joe charming, devil-may-care or unconventional, but the biggest problem with A Cut Above is that they've built the whole film around him. Joe is so thoroughly unlikeable, so completely smug, self-obsessed and self-deluded, that you want to put him in traction by jumping up and down on him (and not in a good way).
Daphne Zuniga's character, meanwhile, is the same character with the same character arc that she played in The Sure Thing (a vastly superior movie): uptight priss who cares more about work and order than anything else. Frankly, she's the only character apart from Christine Lahti that I'd be happy to have tend to me when I was in hospital. You know what? Medical school is serious. People's lives will literally depend on your knowledge one day. I would much prefer my doctors had paid attention in school.
Although the film is meant to explore the lives of several medical students, you don't learn enough about any of them to care. There's Joe's roommate who can't cope and turns to drugs, the married woman who has to choose between her family and her career and other people with problems that came straight out of the "how to make a college movie" handbook that I can't force myself to remember. You've seen these characters played before and better, possibly by people you've actually heard of.
I don't mind a film that draws on stock characters and stock situations. I could care less if a film has no star names. But this film is just so tired. The script is awful and the actors know it; even the walk-on talent look like they wish they were on some other movie. It's sold as a comedy, but you're hard pushed to ever raise a smile, and the 'drama' falls between trite and condescendingly preaching. There's virtually no direction. The film just plods along, devoid of interest or tension.
As is often the case, Lahti is the one bright spot in the movie, transcending both dimensions of her character, as written, as the hard-nosed Professor, respected by everyone else, but Joe's nemesis. If I were her, I'd have had him thrown out of my class for being an ignorant layabout, but that would have been a much shorter film. Although, that wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing.

Michael Schur Discusses Paul Schneider's Parks and Recreation DepartureEric Hochberger at . Comments
As you probably have heard by now, there's going to be some major shakes in the Parks and Recreation cast as we end the second season and go into the third. Crazy enough, Rob Lowe and Adam Scott will be joining the show soon.
Unfortunately, that means the shows will have to remove some cast members to make some room and that includes series regular, Paul Schenider, who plays Mark. In an interview with the LA Times, series creator Michael Schur discusses why the star is leaving:
When we first cast Paul, we told him that the idea would be Mark would leave and then ideally he would come back in a different capacity working for a different company. And then he would leave again and come back, and so on… It's not something you usually do on TV shows but we thought it was a good way to illustrate both the positive and negative aspects of working for a government. It was one of the first things we talked about with him.
So, in the end, it was a combination of us always knowing that the character would always leave some day, the timing of [Bright Star], and then sort of feeling like, well, the way the character's gone…we were all on the same page here and we decided to write the character out.
But the goal and the aim is to have him come back as soon as his schedule permits and as soon as the arcs we're writing call for it. We very much want him back and he has told us he very much wants to come back in the future.
Eric Hochberger is the programmer of TV Fanatic, so please forgive his mediocre writing. His programming is far better. Follow him on Twitter and/or email him. Just don't request threaded comments. They're coming.

MMA fighter Francis Ngannou chats to KweséESPN about his rise up the UFC heavyweight rankings, his ambitions, and which member of his family back home in Cameroon refuses to watch his fights.
What led to your decision to move permanently from Paris [to where he moved in his mid-20s] to Las Vegas in May?
Everything is easier than in Paris for me, a heavyweight. In France we don't have more heavyweights. I needed to improve my English; in France it was more difficult than here and here I have a good training camp. I have a new performance institute. It's something that is very good for me too.
Were you able to bring your old coaches with you to Vegas or do you have new coaches now?
I would like to [have brought them] but you know everyone has their own life. They're still there with their family, their business, but I needed to go so I moved by myself. We still work together.
Are you now settled in Vegas? Is it home now?
Yes, everything is okay because when I moved here I made people help me a lot. UFC and friends. People helped me to set up and now it's good.
Do you still have family in Cameroon and do they watch your fights?
Mothers, brothers, sisters ... all of them are in Cameroon. Some of them watch and some don't watch. My mom doesn't watch until I win the fight, but when I win the fight she can watch the video after.
Have you considered holding MMA camps in Cameroon to grow the sport there?
In the future; it's not set up yet but we are working on it. Right now we are putting in some equipment for some gyms. We're going to start with a little gym before growing bigger.
Do you believe that there are other potential MMA fighters in Cameroon just waiting to be discovered and provided with the right training?
Yes, there are more talents [there] but the thing that I think about most is people. Someone who has a good motivation like me, who needs that 'thing'. Who wants, desires, that thing like I was before. I think if we have two or three people who have the same thing that I had before, it will be a good thing to do that for them. To give someone that chance that no-one gave me. I can give it back to someone.
Are you a follower of the Indomitable Lions and their achievements on the soccer pitch?
I don't really watch but I try to get any information because I have some friends in the team like Adolphe Teikeu. He's from my village too so we talk on the phone. He gives me the news [like] when they won the Africa Cup of Nations.
Were there any UFC fighters that you enjoyed watching or learning from when you started out in MMA?
Every fighter has something to bring to you. Even now I watch the fights, I watch the flyweights, the middleweights, and I still learn something. You understand better and you try to set up something with the base of what you saw. I learn about everyone. All fighters in the UFC are professional, everyone has something to bring to you.
With your initially scheduled fight versus Brazilian Junior Dos Santos cancelled because of a doping violation, who would you like to fight next?
Honestly the fighter that I want is Stipe [Miocic]. We'll see what will happen. If the UFC doesn't give me Stipe and maybe want me to fight [Alistair] Overeem I will do, it but I want Stipe.
What do you think of Stipe as a fighter?
Stipe is a good fighter. He proved himself by his wins and becoming the champ and defending the title, but I believe I am best.
As you mentioned earlier, there's talk of you possibly fighting Overeem next; what are your impressions of Overeem in the Octagon?
Overeem too is a good fighter. Since two years ago, Overeem definitely changed his style and then he started to make very smart fights. Moving away, change [tactics more] than before. So Overeem is a good fighter, a good match-up. A lot of experience and he too keeps winning fights so a good thing for me too.
What are your long-term goals in the sport of MMA?
Of course I want longevity, I want to hold that belt. It's not just about the belt but to hold the belt is something. That will be my next goal.

Event Details | Event Overview | Session Details | Speaker Profile
Date: February 25-26, 2012
Venue: Bangalore, India
At the Information Excellence 2012-Spring Summit with the theme DATA DYNAMICS, experts elaborate on the changing face of data.
The last decade has seen a rapid change in demand and need for data collection, integration, transformation, analysis; discovery, dissemination, presentation, and visualization. The context and landscape of data is expanding to include unstructured text, documents, web content. It is further expanding to include images, voice, speech, video, and streaming. The summit panel focuses on these changes and its implications, along with call for action to Business Leaders, Industries, Information Professionals, and Academia. Experts share their thoughts, guidelines, best practices and potential opportunities.
Deepak Swamy, Head - Corporate Product Strategy, Infosys, presents a session at the Summit.
Topic: Personalization and Self-Care Imperatives for Enterprises
Date: February 25, 2012
Time: 12:10-12:45 IST
Speaker: Deepak Swamy, Head-Corporate Product Strategy, Infosys
Session Description
While global enterprises have evolved from a "one size fits all" model to a "segment-conscious" model, the emphasis remains on packaging the offerings of an enterprise in new ways to meet the needs of various consumer segments. However, in the digital era, the socially-connected consumer is in the "driver's seat". He wants to assemble, customize and consume the products of his choice. This represents a fundamental shift for enterprises as they ponder the uses of big data-from recommending products to a world where consumers have the tools at their disposal to configure and buy the products they need. The talk will include industry examples and practical insights based on Infosys research.
Deepak has over 22 years of global experience in telecom, software and communication innovation within IT, consulting and VC-backed startups. He has significant experience in leading product management and strategy in communication and Cloud companies. Deepak has also been a speaker at several industry forums and has been quoted by publications like ITU Telecom, Global Communications Magazine and Communications International amongst others.

Why I Will Never, Ever, EVER Get a Tattoo
Would I have to start planning outfits around the tattoo like I plan for weather?
I have a sneaking suspicion that people who are really, really good on Instagram are actually kind of boring to be around (and also probably stand on chairs at brunch a lot to get those ubiquitous overhead table shots). Snapchat, on the other hand, is messy and fun, which is my general aesthetic. I like that you can't manipulate your life on it to quite the same extent you can on Instagram, and I also like that I can cover my zits with a sparkle emoji when I'm sending dumb selfies.
This is all just to say that I'm very excited to launch our Snapchat channel, even despite this warning from familyshare.com.
When Dan and I talked about the best way to introduce the account, the focus was always on our contributors, which is why, for the next few weeks, we'll be handing the account over to some of your favorite xoJane editors and writers.
They'll answer burning questions like: Does Tynan take off his makeup before bed? Is Claire's bar as insanely well-stocked as we think? Who on the xo staff has the cutest pet? Of course, if there's something specific you want to know, you can always ask them.
You can search for xojanedotcom in the app (or click that link on your mobile device), or take a snap of the code below. If there's anything in particular you want to see on our Snapchat in the future, you can tell me about it in the comments, or send me a snap at heycvh. I'll send you my best Time Inc. Office Selfie in return.

What is Spiritual Direction?
In their book The Practice of Spiritual Direction, William A. Barry, SJ, and William J. Connolly, SJ, define spiritual direction as "help given by one Christian to another which enables that person to pay attention to God's personal communication to him or her, to respond to this personally communicating God, to grow in intimacy with this God, and to live out the consequences of the relationship" (William A. Barry and William J. Connolly, The Practice of Spiritual Direction, San Francisco: Harper San Francisco, 1982).
While spiritual direction is found in most religious traditions, Ignatian spiritual direction is distinctly rooted in Ignatian spirituality and the Spiritual Exercises of Ignatius of Loyola.
The website Ignatianspirituality.com offers a comprehensive discussion of Ignatian spiritual direction. For more information, click here.
Our Mission at OIS
Developing and supporting spiritual direction in the Ignatian tradition is at the heart of our mission. We aim to connect those seeking spiritual direction with trained directors. We also work to provide resources, networking opportunities, and training to the community of Ignatian spiritual directors in the Northeast.
One of the primary means of achieving these goals is the new OIS Catalog of Spiritual Directors.
The Catalog is an important means to achieving our goal of supporting spiritual direction in the Ignatian tradition within the two Northeast provinces. The Catalog will enable us to:
For Spiritual Directors

If you have questions about the OIS Catalog of Spiritual Directors or other programs related to Ignatian spiritual direction, contact Kevin O'Brien, Director of Ignatian Partners, at firstname.lastname@example.com, or Lisa Hastings, Director of Formation Programs, at email@example.com.

I purchased some zero coupon bonds for my daughter some years ago. It seems the price doesn't move linearly, (there was a major hiccup in the price in April) and since I'm a new Fool with nary a financial brain in my head I am not sure why. However the price has now recovered and I'm wondering if I should sell before maturity and get into something else? Is it true that the yield varies with interest rates and if so would one expect a spike in the price if the Feds lower rates? I can't find anything online about these things. They mature in Aug 04 and Nov 05.
