Saturn Lineup Could Grow to Eight Models by 2011
Analysts are still pouring over data released by the United Auto Workers as part their negotiated deal with General Motors.
Among information provided to workers was a vehicle production schedule for 16 U.S. plants through the year 2012. Based on pieces of the cryptic information released, some reporters believe that Saturn's lineup could grow to as large as eight models by the year 2011. In addition to the Astra, Aura, Outlook, Sky, and Vue, Saturn may add a subcompact, a small minivan, and possibly a small rear-wheel-drive (RWD) sedan to its stable.
- GM will begin building a product internally known as "Delta MPV 7," at its Deroit-Hamtramck plant. This seven-passenger vehicle is believed to be a version of the next-generation Opel Zafira compact minivan. The Zafira is "one of GM's leading European models," says the Detroit Free Press. "Saturn is almost certain to get a version, and Chevrolet could, too."
- A subcompact "Gamma" 4-door notchback will go into production beginning in 2010. The Tribune Chronicle writes that Joe Langley, senior market analyst for CSM Worldwide in Northville, Michigan, believes that GM will "add Saturn to the Gamma line." The Saturn Gamma (likely co-developed with Opel as the next-generation Corsa) would compete with the Toyota Yaris and Honda Fit. The so-called B-cars are a "big market, a growing market," according the Langley, largely due to rising fuel costs. However, he told the newspaper that total Gamma production would only reach 100,000 to 150,000 vehicle each year, which would not be enough to sustain Lordstown alone. "But when you add the Alpha, then you start opening a lot of opportunity," he added.
- According to documents, the aforementioned RWD "Alpha" architecture will be also built in Lordstown, Ohio beginning in 2011. Alpha-based vehicles will be upscale (but affordable) RWD models, designed to compete with the BMW 3-Series. To date, GM has not yet publically shown an Alpha-based concept or prototype. The Tribune Chronicle reports "Langley said GM might add a Chevrolet or Saturn – even an entry-level Cadillac model – to the Alpha lineup."

Low commercial vacancy in Boyle
The commercial vacancy rate in Boyle for the last quarter of 2016 has emerged as one of the lowest in Connacht.
That's according to information provided by GeoView which shows the commercial vacancy rate in Boyle for the period at 16.1%
While the Connacht average was 15.7% Boyle at 16.1% was the third lowest in the province.
Westport showed the lowest rate of vacancy at 13.5% and Carrick on Shannon next at 14.3% followed by Boyle.
Boyle's vacancy rate for the same period in 2015 was 14.3%
Eight areas were surveyed – Distribution, Health and Social, Services, Industry, Construction, Education, Financial and Public Admin.
Nationwaide, counties Sligo, Leitrim, Donegal, Mayo, Galway and Limerick have the six highest vacancy rates in the country.
GeoDirectory was jointly established by An Post and Ordnance Survey Ireland (OSi) to create and manage Ireland's only complete database of commercial and residential buildings.
These figures are recorded through a combination of the An Post network of 5,600 delivery staff working with OSi.
The report, published on a bi- annual basis, relies solely on the GeoDirectory database of commercial address points for its information. The database distinguishes between 'an address point' which is a unit as opposed to a 'building' which can comprise one or more units. The term 'address point' is used in this report as a proxy for each unit.

This post has an accompanying Bayesian Learning Demo. See here!
In this post, we will build intuitions behind Bayes theory via an interactive visualization and then realize certain properties of such a probabilistic formulation of Machine Learning. It turns of that most advanced approaches in fact run on top of these very simple foundational concepts and help us model problems quite beautifully.
Probability theory is ubiquitous in Machine Learning and perhaps will be the most important tools for future breakthroughs. By the end of this post, the hope is that you will have gained just enough insight into the Bayesian world-view.
In itself, the idea of "learning" is not well defined. But like any physical system, we have a mathematical model around how "learning" should be quantified. As you might already imagine, there cannot possibly exist a deterministic view of "learning" given the subjective nature of matter. In light of this uncertainty, it is quite obvious that we turn to probability theory to seek answers to our questions.
In learning theory, a "concept" is something that we wish to learn given some data. "Concept" is not concretely realizable and instead we wish to learn something from a big collection of concepts called a "concept" class. For instance, imagine I provide you a list of numbers and ask you what "concept" do these numbers represent. You'd make educated guesses from a certain list of concepts you had in mind, for instance even/odd numbers, multiples of 3 or more complicated ones like odd powers of 2. The possibilities are endless which actually makes the realization of every concept pretty much impossible. Instead, we work around this complication and arrive at a mutually agreed upon set of "concepts" to form the "Hypothesis" set. While the size of this set may be infinite as well, ideally its nature tends to be more approachable and computationally tractable.
For the more mathematically inclined, it is fruitful to view hypotheses as just any other function which when fed with data provides meaningful inference. For instance, to distinguish cats and dogs, let us say you chose to build an SVM classifier. In essence, you have implicitly arrived at a choice of your hypothesis set - The set of all hyperplanes that separate the data under (relaxed) margin constraints.
Our hope is that this hypothesis set is a "close" enough representation of the true concept class so as to minimize the "generalization error" on unseen data. The true nature of "close" and "generalization error" is out of scope for this post. But to make things concrete, I would like to present a very simple yet powerful result in learning theory
\[ \underset{S \sim D^m}{P}[R(h) \leq \epsilon] \geq 1 - \delta \]
In plain words, the probability that "true risk" \( R(h) \) will be within the limits of a fixed positive constant \( \epsilon \) with a confidence of at least \( 1-\delta \). Risk in simple words measures how inaccurate was your learning with respect to new unseen data.
The above equation is dense with knowledge and has various other forms under relaxed constraints. But, for the sake of brevity I will defer that discussion, perhaps for another day. The takeaway here is that we do have a concrete quantification of both the risk and the uncertainty in that risk.
In hindsight, Bayes rule (discussed later) fits quite naturally when modelling human cognition. To motivate the intuition, imagine how a child's "concept" of classifying objects based on earlier observations gets strengthened every time the objects are observed.
I will put it out right away that like all modelled physical systems, theory doesn't always lead to tractable solutions and only under reasonable assumptions do we solve the learning problem. Nevertheless, the bayesian approach is theoretically well-motivated. More importantly, it works!
Let us take a look at the Bayes equation which I'm sure is nothing new. In machine learning, this factorization is a boon for the theorists and occasionally a bane for the practitioners.
\[ P(A | B) = \frac{P(B|A)P(A)}{P(B)} \]
I will defer the explanation and instead invite you to play the number game.
The game is very simple. I will give you a set of numbers and a universe of concepts where these numbers could be coming from. Your job is to guess which concept do these numbers belong to. We also have our "Bayesian" friend playing this game along with us.
For the sake of this game, I will limit all numbers between 1 and 100 and the universe of concepts consists of the following
In total, you have just 32 concepts in this universe of numbers. I call this \( \mathcal{H} \).
I give you \( \mathcal{D} = [16] \). Well, you'd tell me that this could be anything, an even number, a perfect square, a number ending in 6 and so on. And you are right, our Bayesian friend would be just as confused as you are. This is quantified by the fact that when that friend tells us the predictions for each class, it turns out the uncertainty is quite high given that many hypotheses tend to have high probabilities.
In this trial, we will quantify the "likelihood" that a dataset comes from a given hypothesis as
\[ P(\mathcal{D} | h) = \frac{1}{|h|} \]
We read this as the "likelihood" of the dataset given hypothesis \( h \). This quantifies the conditional dependency of having generated the dataset given a hypothesis.
To keep things simple, I've defined is as the probability of picking a number from the complete set of numbers uniform. For instance,
\[ P(\mathcal{D} | h_{even}) = \frac{1}{50} \]
is the likelihood of picking up a single number from the set of 50 even numbers between 1 and 100 (our universe of numbers defined earlier). Extending this to a dataset of \( m \) even numbers, since each choice is independent of the other, we simply have
\[ P(\mathcal{D}^m | h_{even}) = \left( \frac{1}{50} \right)^m \]
Let us compare this to say the likelihood of \( \mathcal{D} \) being from a power of four set,
\[ P(\mathcal{D} | h_{\text{power of 4}}) = \frac{1}{3} \]
This equation tells us that the likelihood of 16 being from a the set of powers of 4 is considerably larger than it being from a set of even numbers. If we augment the dataset as \( \mathcal{D}^\prime = [4,16] \), it leads to a likelihood choice between \( \frac{1}{50^2} \) and \( \frac{1}{3^2} \). Those odds escalated quickly!
This is in fact attributed to a principle known as the Occam's Razor which can be paraphrased as - given everything else same, a simpler (in this case the smaller) explanation is often the better one.
Coming back to our original data, we were confused among different competing hypothesis. How do we solve this? Prior knowledge is the key. You prior experience with numbers would tell you that it is more often that you've seen even numbers than numbers as specific as powers of 4. However, somebody else might have had an opposite experience so far and would have different "priors".
To accommodate those experiences, we use a product of the "likelihood" and the "prior" to form the "posterior".
\[ posterior \propto likelihood \times prior \]
In this context,
\[ P(h | \mathcal{D}) \propto P(\mathcal{D} | h) \times P(h) \]
The probability that the concept is \( h \) "given" that we have seen data \( \mathcal{D} \) is proportional to the likelihood of the data conditional on belonging to that hypothesis \( h \) scaled by a prior factor. The proportionality is removed by a normalization constant composing of the "evidence".
Let us say the prior for even numbers is \( P(h_{even}) = 0.5 \) and \( P(h_{\text{power of 4}}) = 0.2 \), our posterior probabilities would now be reported as \( P(h_{even} | \mathcal{D}) = 0.01 \) and \( P(h_{\text{power of 4}} | \mathcal{D}) = 0.067 \). I guess I'd be better off choosing the power of 4 set as my concept that the set of even numbers. It should be easy to see that changing the values of the prior would lead me to different results.
The subjective nature of the distribution of likelihoods and priors is in fact where we encode our underlying assumptions about the concept. To play with different data and probability configurations, head over to the Interactive Bayesian Learning Demo. Note how adding more data makes our "Bayesian" friend more confident about the concept just like you would be.
Having set our intuition right, it is time we delve into certain equations and realize some properties of the Bayesian approach. We will complete our Bayes rule for this problem
\[ P(h | \mathcal{D}) = \frac{P(\mathcal{D}|h)P(h)}{\sum_{f \in \mathcal{H}} P(\mathcal{D}|f)P(f)} \]
where \( P(\mathcal{D}|h) = \mathbb{I}(\mathcal{D} \in \mathcal{E}(h)) / |h|^m \). \( \mathbb{I} \) is an indicator function which is \( 0 \) if there exists some number in \( \mathcal{D} \) not satisfied by \( h \) and \( 1 \) otherwise. The remaining term is the same as the discussed earlier. This comes from a fairly natural intuition that if a number in the dataset does not satisfy the hypothesis \( h \), then the likelihood of the data coming from that hypothesis should be zero.
For the priors \( P(h) \), I've chosen the standard odd/even numbers to have a high prior, sets of multiples and ending numbers a moderate prior and the more "unnatural" sets in the end to have a very low prior. This again is a natural choice under the knowledge of the problem setup.
Note that the choice of these likelihoods and priors are what will affect the solution which is why I invite you to try out different custom/preset distributions at the demo page.
It turns out that with "sufficient" amount of data (the term has relevant definitions which I defer to another discussion), the posterior tends to peak at one single hypothesis which is called the "maximum a posteriori" or "MAP estimate" and tends to push down all other probabilities to zero. It is compactly written in literature using the Dirac Measure which is a binary valued function parametrized over a set. In this case it gives 1 when \( h = \hat{h}^\text{MAP} \) and 0 otherwise.
\[ P(h|\mathcal{D}) \to \delta_{\hat{h}^\text{MAP}}(h) \]
The MAP estimate is written in a more familiar form as
\[ \hat{h}^\text{MAP} = \underset{h \in \mathcal{H}}{\text{argmax}} P(\mathcal{D}|h)P(h) \]
It is more convenient to write this as the "Log-likelihood"
\[ \hat{h}^\text{MAP} = \underset{h \in \mathcal{H}}{\text{argmax}} \left[ \text{log}(P(\mathcal{D}|h)) + \text{log}(P(h)) \right] \]
Given that the prior stays constant, with enough data, the likelihood term starts dominating. The MAP estimate then starts converging towards maximum likelihood estimate or "MLE".
\[ \hat{h}^\text{MLE} = \underset{h \in \mathcal{H}}{\text{argmax}} \text{log}(P(\mathcal{D}|h)) \]
The takeaway here is that data overwhelms the prior. In retrospect, this is quite intuitive. To observe, in the experiment trial above, put \( \mathcal{D} = [4,8,16,32] \) and see how suddenly the MAP estimate peaks at just a single hypothesis. Theoretically, we claim that the "truth is recoverable in the limit of infinite data". This in fact forms the foundations of most machine learning solutions.
Now finally, to make our predictions on a new test data point \( \hat{x} \), we run it via the Posterior Predictive Distribution. In this problem we get
\[ P(\hat{x}|\mathcal{D}) = \sum_{h \in \mathcal{H}} P(y=1|\hat{x},h) P(h|\mathcal{D}) \]
which is just a simple Bayes Model Averaging to predict whether the new number \( \hat{x} \) belongs to the learned concept or not.
Whatever we've learned so far stays at the core of any probabilistic model. But there are a handful of further concerns we still have not addressed. I note down a few without going into further details yet.
Modelling our assumptions into the likelihood and prior distributions are crucial. One concern arises when distributions are based on "frequency counts". Beta distributions tend to take a nice form in such situations to make sure previously unseen classes (priors amounting to zero) don't always get nullified.
In a variety of high dimensional scenarios, problem generally tends to be intractable. This is where factorization into conditionally independent factors becomes imperative. (Factor graphs)
It might happen that MAP/MLE objective cannot be expressed in a closed form. This is where a variety of solutions from convex optimization literature are invoked like the stochastic gradient descent.
Most data in practice tends to allude to some inherent structure. Bayesian Modelling is a fairly powerful approach to model those relationships via a paradigm of approaches known as Probabilistic Graphical Models. We've barely scratched the surface here but this opens up avenues to understand a variety of fairly popular methods like Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) and Conditional Random Fields (CRFs). The references are highly recommended.
As an interesting side note, Bayesians have a strong tendency to reason anything and everything from the lens of Bayes theorem. It shouldn't be surprising now to model perhaps everything within reasonable limits of this model and is an interesting line of thought to consider.

The measles outbreak in California has hit 63 cases since it surfaced in Disneyland this past December, and several new cases have now surfaced in three Bay Area counties, resulting in a potential new spread of the highly-contagious disease there.
Low vaccination in both adults and children has health officials pushing for measles intervention and urging everyone who has not already done so to receive the MMR (measles, mumps rubella) vaccine shot.
Alameda (five cases), Santa Clara (one case), and San Mateo (one case) counties have seven confirmed cases so far, according to NBC News in the Bay Area. As a precaution and attempt to generate more awareness about the importance of vaccinations to thwart the measles spread, several schools in the South Bay will send notices out to address questions parents have about the infectious illness.
Of 63 confirmed cases statewide, 42 have been linked to the world-renowned, Anaheim-based Disneyland amusement park directly. Five Disney employees are among the infected. State health officials determined that 34 of the infected measles patients were unvaccinated, and that just one had received one dose of the MMR vaccine, while five had received two or more doses of it, NBC notes.
The Measles epidemic had been completely eradicated from the United States in 2000. After 2004, when the number of cases hit a record low of just 37 cases nationwide annually, that figure has risen to new heights nearly every subsequent year. In 2014, there was over 640 measles cases nationwide.
A simple measles vaccine can prevent the disease and its dramatic spread. Measles is highly contagious and can remain active for up to two hours in the air after an infected person coughs or sneezes. Last year, the lack of vaccinations against whooping cough (pertussis) resulted in the worst outbreak in 70 years, with nearly 10,000 people diagnosed with the bacterial disease.

text: Thank you very much. We're here today to launch the first-ever, U.S. government-wide initiative focused on economic empowerment for women in developing countries. A lot of people have worked very hard, especially some of the people behind me. I want to thank Ivanka for the incredible job that she's done in leading this initiative. Thanks, also, to Secretary Mike Pompeo, Secretary Wilbur Ross, Secretary Steve Mnuchin, Acting Secretary Patrick Shanahan, Ambassador John Bolton, Ambassador Mark Green, and Peace Corps Director Jody Olsen. I want to thank you all very much. I know how hard you've all worked. And thank you. Great job. So important. I also want to thank Senator Chris Coons, who's -- we just left. We had a wonderful prayer breakfast this morning, which was a tremendous gathering of a lot of great people. Along with Representatives Mark Meadows and Michael McCaul for being here. Thank you all very much. We're thrilled to have so many government and private sector leaders with us. As my National Security Strategy says, investing in women helps achieve greater peace and prosperity for nations -- not only our nations; this is all nations all over the world. We're getting together. We've developed a lot of really tremendous relationships because of what we're doing right here. American women demonstrate every day that when women are free to thrive and prosper, they create jobs, strengthen our communities, and bring greater peace and prosperity to our nation and all over the world. Today, we're here to take a historic step to achieve this goal. In just a few moments, I will sign the National Security Presidential Memorandum to establish the Women's Global Development and Prosperity Initiative, also known as the W-GDP. It's a good name. [Applause] That's one you should remember. Through this initiative, our goal is to reach 50 million women, and maybe more. And it looks like it is probably going to be substantially more than that -- substantially more than 50 million women in the developing world. And that will be done, Ivanka, by 2025, they say. The W-GDP will coordinate efforts. It's sort of interesting -- GDP -- I'm thinking about "gross domestic product," but that's okay because that's what we -- That's why. [Laughs] -- you're actually increasing gross domestic product -- That's why. Exactly right. -- when you do this well. The W-GDP will coordinate efforts across the federal government and work with other nations, organizations, and private-sector partners to help women in developing countries fully and freely participate in their local economics. So this is a tremendous step for women. Other leaders of other countries have asked to get involved and do it. And through the people standing behind me, largely, that group has done something that a lot of people thought could not be done. I've directed the USAID to allocate an initial $50 million for a new W-GDP fund, which will implement our strategy of making smarter, metrics-based investments that catalyze private-sector dollars. This initiative will be prioritized in the upcoming future and in upcoming future budgets. Our goal is to empower women to help their home countries become self-reliant and to allow a lot families -- millions of families throughout the world -- to become self-reliant, and also in the United States, very importantly. Today, we are honored to welcome women from many different countries -- and I'm going to have them say a few words -- who are already benefitting from U.S. government programs and who are achieving in their own countries, and elsewhere, some really incredible things. Some amazing stories. I'd like to ask Ivanka to say a few words, introduce a few of the folks. And, Ivanka, if you'd start off, maybe you could start right now and then we'll do a signing when we're all finished. Yeah, absolutely. Good. Well, thank you for your tremendous leadership on this effort. And I want to thank everyone who's in this room for their contribution over the past year, through the interagency process. As the President said, this is the first U.S. government, all-of-government approach to empowering women in the developing world. And we're incredibly excited. We will hit 50 million women by 2025 through one of three pillars. The first is women prospering in the workforce -- so helping with vocational applications that will enable them to secure jobs; giving them access to technology, which will enhance the productivity at the work that they're already doing. The second is helping women entrepreneurs gain access to finance and capital that enable them to scale and grow their businesses. This will create a multiplier effect, lifting up communities. And the third is the enabling environments, and creating the conditions for women to thrive. We know that there is a very strong correlation between women's empowerment and peace. That's been well established. And thank you, Acting Secretary Shanahan, for your great work through this process to get us to today's PM. We also know that women, as 50 percent of the population, are absolutely critical to each country's prosperity. And we want to further incentivize and fuel that, but make sure to have it be metric-driven and outcome-based. So we have rigorous metrics. Our goal is to transform all the recipient countries from receivers of foreign aid and development assistance to self-reliant and, ultimately, trading partners with the United States. So I think some of the best examples of this are right here in this room, under programs launched under this administration. So perhaps Nino, from Georgia, if you could say a few words about your experience and how the U.S. government has helped support you and the effect it has had on your home community. Thank you, Mr. President, Ivanka. First of all, I would like to thank you for this great initiative, and take the opportunity and thank the U.S. taxpayers because they have to know that they are changing the lives of every single person all over the world for the better. I'm a grantee of Millennium Challenge Corporation, and I was the one who thought that the women in Georgia had no future. But the breaking point was when Millennium Challenge gave me the opportunity to overcome the challenge. I started with two cows and I become one of the biggest farmer of Georgia in reality, and now am supporting my community in the terms of access to finance, education, and their prosperity. So, Mr. President, with your leadership, Georgian relationship with the U.S. flourished. And each and every Georgian citizen feels that. And I would like to thank for that. And the cultural [Inaudible], with your support and with the projects the U.S. government does in Georgia, really has been tremendous because women have future of Georgia. You have thousands [Inaudible] all over the world who cannot come here and could not say it. So on behalf of the beneficiaries of U.S. project, I would like to thank you again. Thank you very much. I appreciate it. [Applause] Thank you very much. Beautifully said. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, please? And I'd just like to add: This is an important project; State Department is fully behind it. The women at the State Department are a central part of what we do. And we will be -- through multiple programs -- we've got scholars here, from Fulbright, a long history. And this will be an important addition to America's efforts to empower women all across the world. We're proud to be a part of this, and we look forward to working on it in the days and weeks ahead. That's great. Thank you very much, Mike. John Bolton, please. Well, Mr. President, this National Security Presidential Memorandum that you're about to sign is founded in your National Security Strategy. The ideas that Ivanka has been pursuing here are critical, we think, to some of the central pillars of that strategy -- very important for the United States to see this development around the world. And it's very exciting. It really is a whole-of-government approach. And everybody is behind it. Thank you, John, very much. Great job. Senator? Please. Thank you, Mr. President. Thank you, Ivanka. It's been great to work with you and to be here to help celebrate your signing of this next step in this critical women's growth and prosperity and development initiative. It dovetails nicely with the BUILD Act bipartisan bill you signed into law; with the WEEE Act, which recognizes this as a critical strategy. In my limited experience in Africa, every extra development dollar the United States invests in women, they invest in skills, in creating jobs, in building employment, and in their children and the future. And in societies where women's entrepreneurship is strong, there is peace. So I think this is a tremendous initiative. Thank you, Mr. President. Thank you very much. I appreciate it. Mark Meadows? I see you're back there, Mark, and you were so instrumental. [Laughter] Mr. President, thank you for your leadership. And, Ivanka, thank you for your role. But more importantly, thank you to all the people here in the room for your leadership on this issue. But it's the stories that'll be told, Mr. President, that you'll never hear in this Oval Office -- the lives that will be changed, the people that will be empowered -- that will be a lasting legacy of this effort today. And I want to thank you. Thank you, Mark, very much. And, Wilbur, Commerce has a lot to do with what's going on right now. And this is a big part of Commerce. What do you think? Well, it certainly is. If this goal is achieved, it'll add $12 trillion to the world GDP in 2025. That would be like creating another China, but without the trade deficit. [Laughter] And we won't have that for too long. Would anybody like to like to say anything? Michael? Anybody? Please. Yeah, thank you, Mr. President. I just want to thank Ivanka for her tremendous leadership on this issue. And the WEEE was incredible to pass that. As the father of four girls, women rule my house. [Laughter] And this will impact 15 million women across the globe. That's very significant. And, Ambassador Bolton and Secretary, thank you for making this a part of your National Security Strategy, Mr. President, because it is a national security issue, and I appreciate that. Thank you very much. Would anyone like to say anything? Acting Secretary Shanahan, would you -- Sure. Maybe just a couple quick words. Economic stability is good defense policy. The seeds of flawed ideology are born from the absence of economic security. I'm hoping, Ivanka, your initiative will put me out of business. [Laughter] Thank you. Very good. Yes, please. My name is Ella Zande, from Budala village, southern Malawi. Right. I am a founder and chairwoman of the Budala Women's Group. I started a group in 2010 with 10 women. Today, we have 65 women in three villages. Over the past eight years, we had four Peace Corps volunteers who taught us many things, like we have businesses. We are [Inaudible]. So now I am happy to be here in America. [Laughter] I am very proud and happy to be here on behalf of my group and my Malawi women. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Beautifully said. [Applause] And one of the components of this initiative as well is the importance of catalyzing the private sector to achieve our shared goals. So we'll be announcing today a partnership with UPS to help women entrepreneurs gain access to markets through their services, as well as a partnership with Pepsi, a co-investment with USAID. So we really want to lean on the private sector to help us achieve these goals. And the CEO of Deloitte, Cathy, is with us today, and has done tremendous work in this space. Good. Would you like to say something? Yes. Good. Thank you so much. Well, obviously, the benefits are well documented. The barriers are well documented. And we look forward to the bold strategy that's ahead of us. So we're really looking forward to it. Thank you so much. We appreciate what you did. Thank you. Let's sign. Right? Let's sign. [The memorandum is signed] [Applause] Okay, who would like this pen? Who would like this? I think I know who I'm giving it to. I'm giving it to her. [Applause] We have plenty for everybody. Everybody gets a pen. ' So here it is, folks. This is a lot of -- a lot of very hard work. I think this is something very, very special, and very special people. Thank you all very much. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Would you accept a compromise from the congressional committee? There could be. I hear they're working on something. We'll see what happens. But I certainly hear that they're working on something. And both sides are moving along. We'll see what happens. We need border security. We have to have it. It's not an option. Let's see what happens. Should Matt Whitaker testify tomorrow, Mr. President? He's an outstanding person. I would say, if he did testify, he'd do very well. He's an outstanding person. A very, very fine man. Thank you all very much. He says he may [Inaudible]. That, I don't know. No meeting with Xi in the next month or so? Not yet. Maybe. Probably too soon. Probably too soon. Not before the deadline, though, right? No.

GIRARD, Ill. -- Wayne Sennett drove 22 hours from Delaware to get here. He's a bulldog of a man, 63 years old, a welder with a look suggesting a certain truth to his jacket's embroidered words "Bad to the Bone." He'll tell you he lives in Ellendale Swamp, which is infamous as an 18th century refuge for blackguards, miscreants and other extraordinary creatures. The more Wayne Sennett talks, the more you believe he fits right in. Listen to what he said.
He said it after hauling his air cannon 958 miles. He said it after towing the great machine behind his welding truck from the swamp to the cornfields of central Illinois. When somebody told him the annual Punkin Chuckin contest in the village of Morton had been called off -- too much rain, the field a quagmire -- here's what he said.
Well, we can't print that.
He also said, "After that, I told the folks in Morton, 'You want to see a grown man cry?' I didn't come all this way to sit on my [keister]."
He said nothing would stop a similar event in Delaware, home since 1986 to the sport's world championships. "Neither rain nor snow nor blow stops us," Sennett said. "Mud everywhere, we'd get every John Deere tractor around and pull them guns where they need to go."
So the Morton folks got in touch with the Girard folks, who had staged their own punkin chuckin event the week before, and Wayne Sennett drove another couple hours to set up his "Sky Buster" cannon on the Girard firing grounds.
What did he expect of the day?
"Win," he said.
"We didn't come here for [scatological reference] and giggles," he said, laughing if not giggling. "We come to play."
Could Sky Buster defeat Morton's giant Aludium Q-36 Pumpkin Modulator?
"Talk to me about 4 o'clock," he said with a wink.
The idea of punkin chuckin is to see whose machine can throw a pumpkin the farthest. Though the sport's origins have been lost in the mists of time, it's safe to bet that a 13th-century boy, with the family catapult sitting idle, thought to himself, "Hmm, what would happen if I launched a pumpkin onto Mary Jo's roof?" Most punkin chuckin competitions around America now include catapults, slingshots, centrifugals and trebuchets of medieval design. One expert's summary: "Punkin chuckin -- where agriculture meets physics."
Contest pumpkins can weigh no more than 10 pounds and be no larger than nine inches in diameter. The firmer they are, the better to withstand the air pressure that shoves them up the barrel. Those that disintegrate on launch are spoken of as "pumpkin soup" and "pumpkin pie in the sky." A Girard aficionado, Courtney Klaus, remembered a good ol' boy loading in a bowling ball, just to see, y'know. "It landed in a woman's yard," she said, "and that's why we're over here now." Over here being a field that once was a city dump with the nearest house a mile and a half away, over the cornfield, beyond even the bean field.
To see the air cannons lined up at Girard was to imagine artillery guns trained on enemy aircraft. The biggest gun was Morton's Q-36, its name borrowed from an old movie and TV cartoon series, "Marvin the Martian." Marvin was obsessed with destroying Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and the planet Earth. His weapon: the Illudium PU-36 Explosive Space Modulator.
Today's real thing, the Q-36, weighs 18 tons. Its barrel is 110 feet long. It's painted in the military's dark olive green. "On the Interstates, the law gives us fewer problem if they think we're military," Matt Parker said. His company, Parker Fabrications, built the gun in 1996 for maybe $1,800 with community-wide donations of material and labor. As to what it might cost to replicate the gun now, Parker said, "Conservatively, $250,000."
The Q-36's longest throw is 4,859 feet, 421 feet short of a mile. On such a throw, the pumpkin may leave the muzzle near the speed of sound -- about 750 mph -- and reach an altitude of 1,000 feet. Air compressed to 100 pounds per square inch and released through the barrel produces a rising whoosh that ends in ear-quivering thunder when the pumpkin rockets into the sky. The world-record throw is 5,545.43 feet, done by a Delaware gun, "Big 10 Inch." Parker says that throw is at least partly the result of setting the gun on a rise above the landing field, in effect shooting downhill.
The Q-36 remains the only punkin chucker ever to appear on the David Letterman show. "Dave wanted us to shoot at New Jersey," Parker said. New Jersey's shore is only about 2,000 feet across the Hudson River from Manhattan's west side. "So we had to back up or we'd have hit buildings over there."
On this day in Girard, the Q-36's first of three throws traveled 3,748.8 feet.
Two guns later, Sky Buster's first sailed 3,537.6.
Game on.
Q-36 cranked it up to 4,118.4.
Sky Buster's second was 3,643.2.
When Q-36 reached 4,120.4 feet on its last shot, Sky Buster could only match its previous throw.
It was, by then, past 4 o'clock and time to talk with Wayne Sennett.
"Not a good day," he said. He was taking down the gun, packing up, ready to get back on the road to Ellendale Swamp. As he hitched the Sky Buster to his welding truck, he said he had enjoyed the day despite it all.
"When that pumpkin gets its wings, I'm telling you, climbing and climbing, flying like it does, it's like I'm riding it …"
An image: Slim Pickens riding an atomic bomb in "Dr. Strangelove." Like that.
"And I'm looking down from up there," Sennett said, "and I'm seeing the fields and the railroad tracks and all the people down below. When I watch that pumpkin fly, I'm free."
So it's not the NFL and it's not the World Series. It's punkin chuckin. Still. Name another game that can turn a welder into a poet.

It's possible to get or download caterpillar-wiring diagram from several websites. If you take a close look at the diagram you will observe the circuit includes the battery, relay, temperature sensor, wire, and a control, normally the engine control module. With an extensive collection of electronic symbols and components, it's been used among the most completed, easy and useful wiring diagram drawing program. M38a1 Electrical System Diagram. The wiring diagram on the opposite hand is particularly beneficial to an outside electrician. Sometimes wiring diagram may also refer to the architectural wiring program. The simplest approach to read a home wiring diagram is to begin at the source, or the major power supply. Basically, the home wiring diagram is simply utilized to reveal the DIYer where the wires are.
If you can't locate the information, get in touch with the manufacturer. The info in the diagram doesn't indicate a power or ground supply. The intention of the fuse is to safeguard the wiring and electrical components on its circuit. A typical watch's basic objective is to tell you the good time of day. When selecting the best type of computer cable to fulfill your requirements, it is very important to consider your upcoming technology plans.
Installing a tachometer on your Vehicles can assist in preventing critical repair problems, however. You might have a weak ground issue. The way the brain learns is a subject that still requires a good deal of study. How it learns can be associated by how it is able to create memories.
In a parallel circuit, each unit is directly linked to the power supply, so each system gets the exact voltage. There are 3 basic sorts of standard light switches. The circuit needs to be checked with a volt tester whatsoever points. M38a1 Electrical System Diagram. Each circuit displays a distinctive voltage condition. You are able to easily step up the voltage to the necessary level utilizing an inexpensive buck-boost transformer and steer clear of such issues. The voltage is the sum of electrical power produced by the battery. Be sure that the new fuse isn't blown, and carries the very same amperage.
Each fuse is going to have a suitable amp rating for those devices it's protecting. The wiring is merely a bit complicated. Our automotive wiring diagrams permit you to relish your new mobile electronics in place of spend countless hours attempting to work out which wires goes to which Ford part or component. Overall the wiring is really straight forward. There's a lot wiring that you've got to tie into your truck's wiring harness, but it's much easier to do than it seems. A ground wire offers short circuit protection and there's no neutral wire used. There's one particular wire leading from the distributor which may be used for the tachometer.
When you have just a single cable going into the box, you're at the close of the run, and you've got the simplest scenario possible. All trailer plugs and sockets are extremely easy to wire. The adapter has the essential crosslinks between the signals. Wiring a 7-pin plug on your truck can be a bit intimidating when you're looking at it from beyond the box.
The control box may have over three terminals. After you have the correct size box and have fed the cable to it, you're almost prepared to permit the wiring begin. Then there's also a fuse box that's for the body controls that is situated under the dash. M38a1 Electrical System Diagram. You will find that every circuit has to have a load and every load has to have a power side and a ground side. Make certain that the transformer nameplate power is enough to supply the load that you're connecting.
The bulb has to be in its socket. Your light can be wired to the receiver and don't require supply additional capacity to light as it can get power from receiver. In the event the brake lights aren't working, a police officer may block the vehicle and issue a warning to create the repair within a particular time limit.

Remote distance is left up to 500m. You may use a superior engine ground. The second, that's the most frequently encountered problem, is a weak ground in the computer system. Diagnosing an electrical short can be extremely tough and costly.

Usually, Oscar Sunday finds me in a friend's living room, eating takeout, and talking smack to the television set as we dissect the speeches, the fashions, the flubs, and, of course, the jewels at the Academy Awards. It's a ritual I enjoy and (obviously) don't take too seriously.
This year, however, was different. I realized my Oscar night was getting an upgrade about two weeks ago, when the lovely Prerna Balani, senior manager of public relations for Chopard USA, extended an invite for me and a plus one to attend Elton John's 22nd annual Academy Awards Viewing Party, a 500-person shindig in West Hollywood that benefits the Elton John AIDS Foundation. The Swiss jeweler is a longtime sponsor of the event; Elton himself gives the brand frequent shout-outs.
When it came to choosing a partner in crime, my twin sister, Julia, was, of course, my first choice, which is how, instead of eating Thai food on a friend's couch, we found ourselves at table 64, beneath the most luxurious tent I've ever seen, eating chef Gordon Ramsay's cuisine and watching the Oscars on giant screens as countless celebrities (Neil Patrick Harris! Petra Nemcova! Steven Tyler!) swirled around us.
That's me and Jul, all dressed up with somewhere to go!
Now, I've been to enough Hollywood events to know that the novelty of seeing celebrities in person wears off quickly when you realize that just because you're standing within whispering distance from them doesn't mean they're going to talk to you. Still, it's pretty exciting to be surrounded by so many beautiful people—all the more so when it's Tinseltown's biggest night and they're dressed in their finest beaded gowns and white tuxes and everyone's drinking from bottomless glasses of Champagne (or bourbon, in my case).
Speaking of bourbon, it's late, and I'll be on a flight to Hong Kong by the time you read this, so let's just cut to the chase:
Cate Blanchett's opal earrings—by none other than Chopard. If you thought they were diamonds at first, you're forgiven. I did too. Then she ascended the stage to accept her Best Actress Oscar, for her incredible performance in Blue Jasmine, and I caught the play of color in those 33 cts. of Australian opals, and I immediately thought, well done. Well done, Ms. Blanchett—for your performance, your well-deserved award, your poise, your old- Hollywood glamour, your sixth sense for fashion, and, last but not least, your unconventional but totally you choice in gemstones.
Cate Blanchett's earrings (featuring 33 cts. t.w. Australian opals) belong to Chopard's 2014 Red Carpet collection, which will be on display at BaselWorld.
And well done, Chopard. After 11 consecutive years of adorning Oscar winners—starting with Charlize Theron, who won best actress in 2004 for her performance in Monster, to last year's belle of the ball, Jennifer Lawrence, and now, Great Cate—the brand is an indisputable lucky charm on Oscar night.
I know some people will want to talk about the wheeling and dealing that goes on between jewelers vying for a big-time placement during the Oscars, but I'm going to bypass that conversation for lack of evidence. Instead, let's just appreciate the fact that Caroline Scheufele, co-owner of Chopard, has a crazy talent for picking winners.Follow JCK on Instagram: @jckmagazine

Gleision disaster: Mine manager charged over four deaths
Police have charged a man with manslaughter as they investigate the deaths of four miners in the Gleision colliery disaster.
David Powell, 50, Charles Breslin, 62, Philip Hill, 44, and Garry Jenkins, 39, died in the Swansea Valley mine on 15 September 2011.
Mine manager Malcolm Fyfield has been charged with four counts of gross negligence manslaughter.
The 57-year-old will appear at Neath Magistrates Court on 1 February.
The company which owns the colliery, MNS Mining Ltd, has been summonsed for four counts of corporate manslaughter and will also appear at court.
Their families and community leaders were updated with news of the charges earlier on Friday.
Det Chf Inspector Dorian Lloyd, of the South Wales Police specialist crime investigations team, said the aim of the investigation was to establish a full understanding of the events that led to "such devastating loss of life".
Watched and waited
"Upon completion of the investigation and following consultation with the Crown Prosecution Service, the mine manager, Malcolm Fyfield has today been charged with four counts of gross negligence manslaughter," he said.
"In addition, a prosecution for four offences of corporate manslaughter against the owners of the mine, MNS Mining Ltd, is proceeding.
"I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude to all members of the local community for their continued support and understanding throughout this process.
"In particular I would personally like to thank the families involved for their unwavering patience and courage and request that their privacy is respected at this very difficult time."
The disaster unfolded on a hillside above the village of Godregraig and drew nationwide attention while rescuers tried to reach the four trapped men - all experienced miners.
Their families gathered at the nearby Rhos community centre where a team of liaison officers from South Wales Police kept them updated.
Mr Fyfield was seriously injured in the incident but escaped through an old mine shaft.
Two other miners, including Mr Powell's son, escaped and helped raise the alarm.

What is the purpose of SW-846?
Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste, Physical/Chemical Methods, also known as (SW-846), provides a unified, up-to-date source of information on sampling and analysis related to compliance with Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) regulations. It brings together into one reference all sampling and testing methodologies approved by the Office of Resource Conservation and Recovery (ORCR) for use in implementing the RCRA regulatory program. The manual provides methodologies for collecting and testing representative samples of waste and other materials to be monitored. Aspects of sampling and testing in SW-846 include quality control, sampling plan development and implementation, analysis of inorganic and organic constituents, the estimation of intrinsic physical properties, and the appraisal of waste characteristics.
The procedures described in this manual are meant to be comprehensive and detailed, coupled with the realization that the problems encountered in sampling and analytical situations require a certain amount of flexibility. The solutions to these problems will depend, in part, on the skill, training, and experience of the analyst. For some situations, it is possible to use this manual in rote fashion. In other situations, it will require a combination of technical abilities, using the manual as guidance rather than in a step-by-step, word-by-word fashion.

REVIEW: This critic has an admission to make about 'The 39 Steps' at Actor's Theatre
The three words a critic least likes to utter – "I was wrong" – came out of my reluctant mouth Wednesday night after "The 39 Steps" opened at Actor's Theatre of Charlotte.
I saw the play almost a decade ago and thought, "Meh. Why isn't this more like John Buchan's espionage novel, or at least like Alfred Hitchcock's fairly respectful film version? It's like watching Monty Python or the Goon Show deconstruct a spy story. What's the point?"
But that is the point. This isn't meant to be a tense narrative, just madcap cleverness for its own sake. Even if you're a fan of the Richard Hannay novels Buchan wrote over 21 years, beginning with "Steps" in 1915 – and I own all five – the author can stand an elbow in the ribs every so often. In fact, every 60 seconds, as this silly spectacle at Hadley Theater proves.
Hannay (Jeremy DeCarlos) remains the nominal hero of the tale, which still follows his attempts to prevent a criminal from taking a military secret out of Britain just prior to World War II. A German double agent (Lisa Schacher) gets knifed in his apartment after asking him to help foil the plan. When he runs from the police, he ends up handcuffed to a woman he met on a train (Schacher again). Meanwhile, two guys listed in the program as "Clowns" (Rob Addison and Chip Decker) play dozens of other characters of all ages and both genders.
Patrick Barlow's 2005 script adapts a play written 10 years earlier by Simon Corble and Nobby Dimon. It got nominated for a 2008 Best Play Tony after coming over from England, probably because voters were dazzled by the speed of the show: Costumes, wigs and props fly on and off bodies and the stage. (It lost to the heavyweight "August: Osage County.")
Director Ann Marie Costa, who was assisted by Matt Hunter, gives the goofiness full rein. Decker and Hallie Gray respectively designed the crucial sound and lighting effects, and Vikki Thomas and Philip Wessler do heroic work making those effects succeed – or fail intentionally – at precise moments. In my favorite scene, a window descends with excruciating slowness as Hannay fidgets to escape; after he steps through, it rises just in time to catch the cop climbing after him in the groin.
DeCarlos, an ATC regular, shows physical comedy skills he seldom gets to display; Schacher matches him tumble for tumble and grimace for grimace. The Clowns, adopting and sometimes dropping countless accents – maybe that's intentional, too – fully embrace the low humor. The Marlene Dietrich-style agent in Hannay's apartment warns him, "Zese men vill shtick at nothing." Actually, zese men vill throw shtick at everything, and that's a pretty good idea.
'The 39 Steps'
WHEN: Through June 23 at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday-Thursday, 8 p.m. Friday-Saturday, 2:30 p.m. Sunday.
WHERE: Hadley Theatre at Queens University, 2132 Radcliffe Avenue.
RUNNING TIME: 135 minutes, including one intermission.

The caption label that the website optimizes a the mainest factor is a website (Title Tag) , how to take a good website title? Yuan achieve think, the charming to the user caption that cuts with is again appropriate nevertheless. Telling a search engine the website is main so do this, website content also spreads out around this caption.
Talk below about website caption issue of a few sides:
1, website name avoids keyword of load one's writing with fancy phrases,
2, website name alters brought harm
3, website name is right the importance of sale- – brand effect
4, company website name is installed
5, with keyword of what symbol space.
1, keyword accumulation caption
Website caption should have enough appeal to the user. When the user is searched through searching engine, which website should be clicked in judgement, depend on greatly of your mark inscribe how?
Whats have even if do not have a key, the title that webpage caption is like a person is same, if you saw imprint on a piece of calling card,ten build are held, you can distain this individual very much, and to such webpage, search engine to also do not like. So, your webpage should use a main keyword to be written into caption only, if a meaning has many expression, can list a few appropriately. It is possible that for instance plan of operation of website of website operation _ downloads such returning. Searching engine also is a basis website caption and website content decide your website basically writes yes what, be about what property, decide you are in the weight of which industry.
Website caption key word is unfavorable and overmuch, it is OK to become 32 key words, through searching the participial technology of engine, can have the effect of many key word again. Be like little game of transhipment of through cargo | Free little game downloads, pass a participle, in search transhipment of through cargo little game little game downloads transhipment of through cargo to download little game to download a few keywords such as download of free little game. Do good keyword to optimize, can have good rank.
2, website name alters brought harm
Mix in Internet long, often hear newspaper of a few stationmaster to complain, because changed title (key word) , bring about website rank to drop.
The station that Baidu alters to caption is very sensitive, light person fall authority, k of the person that weigh stands. Analytic reason, when Baidu is collecting a station, affirmative meeting undertakes to this station one is evaluated, if this station is of dry what, what is its main keyword, what is his domain name, his link category what, what is his server IP, what is his service content, updating frequency is how long, weight is much more advanced wait. Baidu can be in these information records advocate in the watch, the content in this watch is having crucial effect to whole website. Also be Baidu assess the main basis of a certain station. General this advocate the content in the watch won't change. Although change, also should wait very long very long, when be being updated greatly for instance, the assessment that it can stand this to you, authority re-act is updated, or rise or fall.
Once alter artificially,become us caption (home page caption, baidu vigilance is highest) when, baidu can allow to was the content that you stand this to produce major change. The rank reinstate that can stand to yours temporarily rank, the rank drops unavoidable, but also won't drop too far. This are very good understanding, e.g. you it is the station that makes a novel, you change your title suddenly into SEO site, the family is searched, the user experiences good difference. So, this kind of course of action of Baidu also can understand. Analyse accordingly, such circumstance, wait for Baidu to be updated afresh, maintain you afresh after this station, the rank can restore, but because Baidu thinks you often alter, whole station is in not steady state, can drop station K, so Baidu K station also is to have stated reason, have a principle, not be for no reason at all.
Still having a kind of case is stationmaster when making a station, if duplicate,imitate well-known trademark, or imitate the website name that has filed brand, that can want caution, one day perhaps your station is done big, because copyright issue searchs,can come to come, offer a piece of advice here so broad stationmaster, the sort of having is not done to contend for the station name of different when making station name later. After waiting for oneself to became famous, alter very troublesome, rare alter collect or the rank can disappear.
3, website name is right the importance of sale- – brand effect
Stationmaster people the word that when giving a name to the website, likes to use industry sex, regional comes the name as the website, and did not join oneself peculiar word to come as the name, this can bring about a large number of homonymic website generation. We with Xiamen secondhand the net is in light of the exemple, xiamen is searched in Baidu secondhand net, before the rank ten call Xiamen secondhand net! ! If you are among them the stationmaster of a website, the website that tells a client you is Xiamen secondhand net, when the client is searching the search on engine, face so many Xiamen secondhand how should net client choose? Can be the client done again why impressions? Twin admits quite hard, more never mention it one page has 8 homonymic websites. If be sunshine secondhand net or carp are secondhand the net won't be put in such problem, because they have their brand!
We manage the brand that the website is managing us actually namely, do not let the brand that our work laboriously manages and someone else share, because,also do not want of website name duplicate should let a client remember that grows long domain name.
4, setting of company website name
When browsing a webpage, passing the blue of browser top to show an occurrence information is webpage caption. In webpage HTML code, webpage caption is located in between label.
Webpage caption is wraparound to the height of a webpage, generally speaking, the caption of website home page is the official name of the website, and the title that the caption of page of content of website Chinese chapter is an article, the caption of column home page is column name normally. Of course this kind of general principle is not changeless, there may be constant change in real work, but change anyhow, still meet on the whole comply with this kind of rule.
For example, the home page headline that can see a lot of websites now is longer, besides website name (company name) besides, still have a website the keyword of relevant business and so on, rank advantage is gained in the result and this basically considers, also belong to normal search engine to optimize a method. Because of common company name (or brand name) in the keyword that does not include core business possibly, when retrieve so when the user through core business, if there is such keyword in website caption, as a result in the search rank lieutenant general is in adverse position.
Such general website caption is OK writing
1, name of website of _ of core product name.
2, produce the name of an article to call name of _ product channel _ website name.
Still have website of a few enterprises, government kind there is a caption not to discuss only in website caption.
5, with keyword of what symbol space
In above give typical examples, you should be OK see I chose to come with _ disjunctive keyword, actually this is not exclusive use, for instance – and | Wait to be able to make separator bugle call. The standard that did not come from search engine government says that sign is better, I just index according to search the usage that props up my and the usage of a few big websites will learn. I can use Chinese website _ , because you see him Baidu, watch sina network, it is so use. And English station is used – , because him Google is mixed,Yahoo is so with.
Caption has installed the premise that does Seo, home page is to single out yourself to think the keyword related to your website, ability continues you next the job.

Roller Retractable Banner Stands
Roller retractable banner stands offer the quickest, easiest set-up of any banner stand style because the banner graphic is already concealed in the base of the unit and you simply roll it up for display. These stands are sometimes called roll-up stands, standing banners, pop up banners, or stand up banners. Whatever you call them, they are generally the easiest bannerstands to set up and slightly more costly than most spring back or telescopic models.
These banner stands can have a wide range in price. Generally with lower end economy roller-retractable banner stands you'll get:
• thinner aluminum which can have more flex resulting in a stand that leans forward and tips over more easily
• lower quality roller mechanism and hardware with short warranty and no replacement parts availability
• limited ease of use features
• thin carrying bag with no padding
Premium roller retractable banner stands usually have:
• thicker, stronger grade of aluminum housing and support poles producing a more stable stand that's less likely to tip over
• higher quality roller mechanism and hardware, longer warranty and often with replacement parts available
• ease of use features like user changeable banners (for changing content), telescopic support pole (so you can raise the banner easily), tension adjustment (so you can increase the tension if over time it needs it)
• more durable carrying bag either molded or with padding for extra protection

Thanks to Ben
Ben bought me a bouquet of one of my favorite flowers yesterday for my bday (tulips). And the card he gave me had a painting of poppies on it (my other favorite flower).
Thanks Ben for making me feel special yesterday and for the fun evening and super fun weekend.
I love you!
We went shopping and I finally bought me bke jeans and some cute new tops.
I am still searching for a new pocket camera.
I am looking at a fujifilm camera that the boutwells use
or a canon pocket camera-a few to choose from.
The cool thing about the fujifilm is that it has video games on it and it has a 3" LCD screen, but it only has 5.1 mp.
I'll be prayin' about it and let you know what I end up choosing.
Thanks Ben ahead of time for my new bday camera. muah!
