While it may seem like a luxury, you will soon find that having power reclining furniture and its customized position capability is a necessity for your home. Customized motion means that you can stop the recliner seat and back with simultaneous movement at whatever position best suits you, whether you need to soothe back pain or sit up and eat a snack while you watch TV. Gentle, power motion is suitable for all levels of mobility, and is as easy to use as a single touch.
Use the built-in console to store remotes, chargers, and other small items that could easily get lost in the depths of cushions.
Keep your drink within reach as you enjoy a movie or a sporting event. Having built in cup holders also helps eliminate spills and stains.
Open a hidden, velcro-sealed flap in the seat back and you can adjust the amount of premium cushioning fiber for better comfort. The wear and tear of aging furniture is no longer a problem when you can renew the cushion's plushness by adding more polyester fiber fill.
Unlike recliners that are built with a two- or three-piece seat and leg rest cushion, this recliner has a single chaise cushion that extends from the seat to the feet. This style offers a fuller comfort and support for your legs, as well as eliminating the open gap that toddlers can get fingers or toys stuck in.
This brand was tested to have a softer, plusher seat feel than even the big name brands. High density polyurethane foam is wrapped in high-loft polyester fiber, creating a soft but durable cushion. These cushions will provide you with years of that brand-new feel.
This power reclining home theater group is the epitome of class and comfort with plush pillow arms, smooth lines, and detailing stitching. This reclining group features over 700 customizable fabric options, and multiple different reclining options to ensure that your leisure is made a priority, and that every thing in line with your design tastes. With built-in drink holders and two storage consoles, you can easily enjoy your favorite snacks in a setting that's way comfier than the costly public theaters.

Liberty News
Johnnie Moore gives message on making the right decisions
The Bible teaches us that God uses the underdogs of life to accomplish great and mighty things for His glory. One of the greatest examples of this is King David. Speaking to thousands of students during Wednesday's convocation, Liberty University Campus Pastor Johnnie Moore used David's account to teach a valuable life lesson.
"There was no more of an unexpected leader than this nomad shepherd boy, who was never meant or believed to be king," Moore said emphatically. "Never in all of history has there been someone, who God has lifted from such a low place and exalted to such prominence."
At the pinnacle of his prominence, David's kingdom flourished. Having everything he needed, he became blindsided by his wealth and failed to foresee the potential danger ahead of him.
"Sometimes in your highest successes you are most vulnerable to your greatest failures," Moore stated.
Second Samuel 11 notes David's stumbling and the choices he made leading up to his affair with Bathsheba. During a time when kings go to war, David chose to remain in his palace. From his roof, he spotted a woman glowing with physical beauty. Allowing his desires to take control, David sent for her.
When Bathsheba became pregnant by the king, he immediately attempted to mask his mistake, resulting in a downward spiral of poor choices.
"I'm not saying that every bad decision is going to have such a severe domino effect, but what I am saying is you never know," Moore said. "There is always a path that leads to the place you never expected."
After noting David's errors, Moore urged students in the midst of a challenging semester to take their time at Liberty seriously and proceed with caution when making decisions, even those that seem harmless.
"If you keep Jesus in the center and you don't make the mistakes of David … then you won't suffer. You can just move ahead. God will help you with your decisions."

Spain has many guitar makers producing some of the best Classical guitars.
Our travels around Spain, visiting luthiers, allowed Selina and I to experience the varied ideas makers have towards this wonderful instrument.
As musicians we have our own preferences for how a guitar should sing and perform just as each Spanish luthier has a preference towards a style of guitar construction.
In selecting the Spanish guitar makers for Stafford Guitar we looked for a family tradition and a history for success in the world of music, for innovation in design and most importantly a love for the instrument.
The Classical guitar is also known as the Spanish guitar and this is due in part to the many years of dedication this country's luthier's have given to the guitar.
Alhambra started as a small workshop making student guitars and now has a range of classical and flamenco guitars to suit every need.
Madrid maker Bernabe is a 2nd generation luthier from a family who became World famous for designing wonderfully expressive and innovative concert guitars.
Sanchez whose innovation in design has produced a style of guitar with a unique sound.
Alhambra was founded in 1965 from an original small guitar workshop located in the town of Muro De Alcoy.
From the beginning it was always the policy to combine the highest standard of craftsmanship with the latest technology to produce the finest quality instruments.View Maker
We lived on the upper floor of the workshop, and I had the luck that ever since I was very small I watched as my father worked with the wood, selecting it carefully and treating it with love and respect.View Maker
Antonio Sanchez
In 1984 after many years of study Spanish Luthier Antonio Sánchez opened his own workshop in Valencia, Spain. Now producing traditional guitars as well as guitars of more modern construction.View Maker

First impressions are that SA don't seem to have much in the way of bowling prospects.
None of the backup seamers to Steyn and Morkel strike strike me as particularly promising.
Mbhalati and Tstotsobe are pretty average. Langeveldt is past it IMO .Parnell still feeling his way back from injury.
Needless to say, the spinners are pretty poor.
Reckon Tahir should be looked at by the SA selectors now that he is available.
Can't see SA winning it. THe lack of all round bowling strength, the fact that it is in the subcontinent and the fact there are three knockout games in a row doesn't bode well for their prospects.

Bracelet Giveaway & {r}evolution apparel - 20 Looks in One: The Versalette! #clothing #women
|The Versalette being worn as a shirt and a dress and a scarf
Over the last few years, my blog has moved from writing, poetry and writers, into art, artists, and creativity.
Smart people doing smart things and the only thing better to me than smart people doing smart things, is smart women doing smart things.
I want this blog to be a place where I can share with you my favorite things, as well as people who are doing cool things in the world.
I learned about these women through Kickstarter, they were raising money to create this item, The Versalette, which is a skirt, a shirt, a dress, a scarf, a bag, a hood as well as a few more looks which you can see below:
I purchased mine early on and watched the process unfold as these two women figured out how to make this (and in the USA) and ship it out to their customers. It was pretty wonderful learning about a company and a product early on and seeing it come to be.
I believe in paying more for a product and company I believe in. These women are not like Donald Trump, whose ties are made in China, but created a fantastic product that is made here in the USA--all parts of it.
What I love is how open and detailed these women are in letting you know where they get their items and who does what.
Here are the details--
100% recycled fabric (50% recycled cotton, 50% recycled water bottles) made entirely in the USA, from recycling to knitting.
Buttons manufactured in Brooklyn, New York using wood grown in Rutland, Vermont.
Hand-dyed drawstrings made in the USA with GOTS-certified organic cotton (origin: Turkey), dyed by hand in Raleigh, North Carolina using fiberactive dyes.
Labels made in the USA with GOTS-certified organic cotton (origin: Turkey), embroidered in Austin, Texas.
|Me in my Versalette at my writing residency
I wore my Versalette throughout my writing residency. It was not only comfy, but on the one day I actually left our cabin to visit Habitat for Humanity and purchase this cool Frida painting I had my eye on, I actually looked cute and stylish-- something unusual for me on a writing retreat!
I will say my first attempt was wearing the Versalette was a hilarious. I had the thing wrapped around my head, completely dorky, like the issues I had when I bought a sarong in Hawaii, I was that girl all over again. I watched the video they made on how to wear it and things got easier.
Anyway, I love mine and have even used it as a pillow case... I kid you not. And I've washed it several time and it still looks good.
They sell for $80 each, so they are pricey, but if you get used to wearing it in the many ways you can, it's worth the money for all you get.
One thing to know, they aren't fitted, it's one-size-for-all (there are strings and ways to adjust it to your size), but if you like a more tailored look, this may not be your thing. For me, who likes more loosely fitting clothes, it's perfect.
Now for the giveaway, because my order came later than they had hoped, they sent me a couple extras, these bracelets, that I'm going to pass on to you. Just leave me your name and a way to get ahold of you in the comment section of this post, and I'll get back to you.
I'll do a drawing for these bracelets on November 17th. So leave me a comment before then!

MIDDLETON – Two additional arrests have been made by the Middleton Police Department in a reported road rage case from earlier this month.
Justin Barnes, 22, and James Hartford, who is 17 according to WMUR, both of Farmington, have been arrested and each charged with one count conspiracy to commit criminal threatening, a Class B felony, for a bizarre incident reported on Jan. 17.
Police allege Barnes and Hartford engaged in vehicular pursuit, chasing two other men, after an argument started in Farmington. The chase was reported later by the alleged victims in the case who said they drove through Middleton to evade the men they say were trying to drive them off the road. They also allege Barnes and Hartford used a long pole with a knife attached to the end to pull along side their vehicle and break out their windows.
Both suspects were arraigned on their charges in Rochester Circuit Court this morning via video feed from the Strafford County House of Corrections.
Judge Daniel Cappiello upheld the Strafford County attorney office's recommendations to set bail for both men at $5,000 cash, to convert to personal recognizance bail with Community Corrections programs supervision and GPS bracelet monitoring. Barnes was also ordered to seek a mental health referral.
Barnes and Hartford have also been ordered to possess no firearms or weapons, to not drink to excess or use illicit drugs, to sign a waiver of extradition and to not go within 100 yards or have contact with seven people, including the alleged male victim in the case and Joshua Hussey, 21, of 22 Winter St., Dover.
Hussey was arrested and charged with reckless conduct and criminal liability for conduct toward another on Jan. 23 for allegedly driving the motor vehicle Barnes and Hartford were riding in at the time they allegedly terrorized the victims in this case.
Middleton Police Sgt. Tim Brown said he could not confirm WMUR's reports that chainsaws were also used in this incident to terrorize the victims, stating the matter is still under investigation. He noted additional charges in this case may be forthcoming.
A probable cause hearing has been set for Barnes and Hartford for Feb. 8. The Rochester courtroom was filled with friends and family of the suspects who left when the video arraignment ended.
More information will be posted as it becomes available.
Two more arrests in road rage case

ACCOUNTING TEXTBOOKS IN SEVENTEENTH CENTURY ENGLAND - Chiefly About Collins' Work -*
In Accounting in England and Scotland: 1543-1800, Professor B. S. Yamey writes, "In the 1630s there was a spurt in the publication of works on accounting: Carpenter's Excellent Instruction came in 1632; in the next year the third (and earliest known) edition of Ralph Handson's broadside, Analysis of Merchants Accompts, was issued; and in 1635 came the first edition of Richard Dafforne's Merchants Mirrour,.... They mark the high point of Dutch influence on English writing in our field; after this group of publications, direct Dutch influence becomes progressively attenuated." (p. 167) He continues, "After Dafforne, books on accounting appeared in in-creasing numbers .... between 1641 and 1740, over 30 new authors contributed books on accounting .... It is difficult to trace foreign influence on the books in English published after Dafforne and his immediate successors. The principal treatises of the last quarter of the seventeenth and the whole of the eighteenth century were es-sentially home-grown, with a preponderance of the best works be-ing published in Scotland, or in England by Scottish authors." (p. 170) He refers to Robert Colinson's Idea Rationaria, 1683, as the first book on accounting published in Scotland. In Richard Brown's A History of Accounting and Accountants, 1905, J. Row Fogo says that Dafforne was succeeded by John Collins and Abraham Liset, "who both gave their instructions perfectly competently, but not in a manner which calls for particular notice." (p. 155)
John Collins' An Introduction To Merchants Accounts was pub-lished in London in 1653. The second edition was published under the title An Introduction to Merchant-Accompts in 1674 in London. This article will examine Collins' textbooks to consider the influence of merchants' current trading activities upon the accounting texts of those times.
•Based upon a paper delivered at the Second World Congress of Accounting Historians.

Development organizations face a long list of challenges from personnel reductions, tight budgets, rising costs, increasing security risks and ever-increasing competition for funding. As varied as they are, however, those challenges all point to one fundamental development imperative - improve project impact.
To deliver impact, a project team has to do much more than just "work harder", it has to increase the way it solves new problems by rapidly introducing new management processes and technologies; learn new skills and tasks quickly; and increase efficiency to continuously reduce operating costs. At the same time, the organization must be able to manage and support the same level of efficiency across all projects.
PM4DEV understands that such efficiency is the result of many complex, interrelated factors, ranging from technology and processes to culture and incentive and reward systems. To drive efficiency, development organizations must address those factors in a holistic fashion. And they must ensure that those factors come together at all three levels of the organization; from the organizations top management to the project team and the individual, in order o create a complete efficiency-enhancing environment.
The success of every project depends on the ability of organizations to build a project management culture, organizations need to identify the functional and technological gaps and develop the solutions to achieving those goals. The primary focus of our consulting services is to partner with you to gather information, explore options and identify solutions that will make an impact at your organization.
- Organizational Performance Development
- Project Management Methodology
- Learning and Talent Development
- Project Review and Recovery
Organizational Performance Development
Our consulting services provide a holistic approach to improve the performance of project management in your organization. Using our assessment tools we identify the opportunities for your organization to improve your current project management practices. We know that organizations that can apply the appropriate processes and structures will manage initiatives more effectively.
PM4DEV Consulting Services can help your organization improve project performance with time-tested approaches that have been implemented in hundreds of organizations.
- Project Management Maturity Assessment
- Performance Measurement
- Culture & Change Management
- Project Management Office
- Project Portfolio Management
With the use of a proprietary assessment tool PM4DEV can measure the performance of your organization's practices to evaluate their effectiveness and demonstrate strategic impact. The assessment provides you with the information necessary to understand the performance of your project management processes, your tools, your training initiatives, or even your overall strategies to make intelligent decisions to choose the best options to obtain performance improvements.
Learning and Talent Development
Our Learning and Talent Development Services are designed to help you and your organization identify the key project management competencies and create the development activities that will assist in building your organizational project management talent.
A competent project manager needs to be able to analyze a situation within different contexts and create different action routes. Regardless of formal training, the competencies grow with experience and the degree of flexibility to learning and adapting.
Our learning and Talent development services include the following:
- Competency Assessments and Development
- Project Management Career Path Development
- Targeted Training Plans
- Course Customization
- Post-Course Mentoring
- Outsourced Training Administration
We can help your organization to move beyond the perception that project management is a skill and that it is just for project managers. The reality is that project management is an organizational competency. If the organizational strategy implies strategic changes and those changes are executed as projects, project management must be an organizational capability rather than a job skill. If project management is an organizational competency, it is required to define a training program within the organization to develop everyone's project management knowledge and abilities.
Project Review and Recovery
Our consulting services are designed to provide with the best advice to help your organization or project. Our consulting approach includes an assessment designed to discover the root cause problems and device a range of appropriate solutions:
- Assessment and Analysis. Our consultants can help you identify the root causes for your project management problems, we help identify the real problem beyond the symptoms and effects that people usually complain. By identifying root causes we work with your team to analyze the problem from different perspectives and chart the desired level of practices, operations and capabilities under a project management maturity framework your organization should achieve.
- Recommendations and Solutions. We help you identify potential approaches to solve problems, we have a participative approach for the creation of ideas designed to build ownership of the solution; we recommend, based on our extensive practice, the best approach to implement the chose solution. We help you develop a long term strategy that will incorporate a roadmap and key milestones to monitor your progress and achieve the expected benefits; supplemented by the identification of short-term opportunities and quick wins to help alleviate the most pressing issues and challenges that need immediate attention.
- Support and Implementation. We can help your organization implement the identified solutions, develop a customized methodology that fits your organizational culture and allows for growth and flexibility. Supporting the implementation of the recommendations includes the services of training and coaching your staff on the new methodologies and processes designed for your organization. Rather than using generic course material, we customize our training content to fit your environment, including policies, forms and tools required for your teams to start applying their new skills immediately.
Project Management Methodology
Our services also include the development of customized methodologies; by working with your organization we will assist you through the development of a customized project management manual that can be used as a guide to establish a common framework for all the projects. The result is a handbook which has your logo, your terminology, your tools, and other items unique to your organization. The benefits of your own project management manual include:
- Supports effective planning and control of projects.
- Documents your customized project management approach. Adapts to unique and general organizational needs.
- Establishes a process for communicating learning experiences.
- Enables continuous improvement of the project process. Establishes a process for maximum use of project resources.
PM4DEV provides the expertise and framework within which your guide is developed. Development of the project management guide is designed to leave the PM4DEV expertise with you. This service also ensures that responsibility for the process and its continuous improvement has been transferred to internal management.
The intent is for your organization to be self-supporting at the end of the process. The services include development of project management job descriptions and roles and responsibilities for project staff. The result is efficiency and effectiveness of project management, which drives the organizational behavior and enables more effective change management.
Our approach is to guide the development of the methodology and let your team make the critical decisions. This approach ensures there will be ownership of the final deliverables, a strategy that will make the implementation and adoption of the methodology a success.

How to Use the World Clock on Your iPhone
Your iPhone's World Clock lets you display the time in numerous cities around the globe. Tap World Clock (inside the Clock application) to activate it.
Tap the + symbol at the upper-right corner of the screen and start typing a city name with the virtual keyboard.
The moment you type the first letter, in fact, the iPhone displays a list of cities or countries that begin with that letter. So typing V will bring up both, Vancouver, Canada and Caracas, Venezuela, among myriad other possibilities. You can create clocks for as many cities as you like, though the times in only four cities appear in a single screen. To see times in other cities, scroll up or down.
To remove a city from the list, tap Edit, and then tap the red circle with the white horizontal line in it to the left of the city you want to drop. Then tap Delete.
You can also rearrange the order of the cities displaying the time. Press your finger against the symbol with three horizontal lines to the right of the city you want to move up or down in the list and then drag it to its new spot.

This morning the Washington Post reports that Navy SEALs carried out an overnight raid on the Somali seaside home of a leader of the al-Qaeda-linked group al-Shabab, U.S. officials said Saturday. A U.S. official said the aim of the raid, which took place Friday, was to take a "high-value" al-Shabab militant into custody, but the militant was not seized.
The AP report on the Somalia raid adds:
A resident of Barawe who gave his name as Mohamed Bile said militants in Barawe closed down the town in the hours after the assault, and that all traffic and movements have been restricted. Militants were carrying out house-to-house searches, likely to find evidence that a spy had given intelligence to a foreign power used to launch the attack, he said.
"We woke up to find al-Shabab fighters had sealed off the area and their hospital is also inaccessible," Bile told The Associated Press by phone. "The town is in a tense mood."
Al-Shabab later posted pictures on the Internet of what it said was U.S. military gear left behind in the raid. Two former U.S. military officers identified the gear as the kind U.S. troops carry. Pictures showed items including bullets, an ammunition magazine, a military GPS device and a smoke and flash-bang grenade used to clear rooms. The officials could not confirm if those items had come from the raid.
In Kenya, military spokesman Maj. Emmanuel Chirchir on Saturday gave the names of four fighters implicated in the Westgate Mall attack as Abu Baara al-Sudani, Omar Nabhan, Khattab al-Kene and Umayr, names that were first broadcast by a local Kenyan television station.
Matt Bryden, the former head of the U.N. Monitoring Group on Somalia and Eritrea, said via email that al-Kene and Umayr are known members of al-Hijra, the Kenyan arm of al-Shabab. He added that Nabhan may be a relative of Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan, the target of the 2009 Navy SEALs raid in Barawe.
The Washington Post report continues with news of an operation in Libya:
Separately, another U.S. official confirmed that the United States was involved in an operation in Libya on Saturday to capture a member of al-Qaeda who is suspected of involvement in the 1998 U.S. embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania. Nazih Abdul-Hamed al-Ruqai, a Libyan known by the alias Anas al-Libi, was detained in Tripoli. A second American official said Washington intends to bring Ruqai to the United States to stand trial.
Pentagon press secretary George Little said Saturday night that Ruqai is "currently lawfully detained by the U.S. military in a secure location outside Libya."
The United States has had a $5,000,000 bounty on Ruqai's head. The Post notes that he has been indicted in the Southern District of New York for his alleged role in the bombing of U.S. embassies in Dar es Salaam and Nairobi on Aug. 7, 1998. And this: "Saturday's operation in Tripoli appeared to represent a coup for U.S. intelligence agencies in a country struggling to establish a civilian government after decades of authoritarian rule and a short civil war in 2011 that gave rise to powerful militias." Other than the Benghazi assault/murders, we haven't heard much about developments in Libya since the overthrow of the late dictator engineered by the president's leadership from behind.
The AP report includes some additional information of interest. It notes that al Libi/Ruqai is believed to have returned to Libya during the 2011 civil war that led to the ouster and killing of Libyan dictator Moammar Gadhafi. His brother said al-Libi was parking outside his house early Saturday after dawn prayers when three vehicles encircled him, smashed the car's window and seized his gun before grabbing him and taking him away. The brother said al-Libi's wife saw the kidnapping from her window and described the abductors as foreign-looking armed "commandos."
The perpetrators of the Benghazi assault/murders remain at large, but you have to think their time is coming.
UPDATE: The New York Times account of the raids here is also must reading. It gives the name of the Libyan al Qaeda leader as Abu Anas, which appears elsewhere as Abu Anas al Libi.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences really doesn't like to rock the boat. Sure, they'll slip a couple surprises into their Oscar nominations, but for winners they're generally more comfortable going with the broadly-appealing, safe, consensus picks.
This means that if you're betting on the Oscars this year, you need to pull your picks from a sample of voters just as unwilling to stray from the flock. I'd recommend SportsNation, a branch of ESPN's media empire where us(!), the fans, get to make our voices heard. Because if there's one place that can generate some real consensus, it's a voting forum for people who spend all their time reading the exact same website, which itself is really not trying to rock any boats nowadays.
Here are SportsNation's picks for the "Big Six" Oscars this year. These are just the early results, we'll keep you updated on any major changes as they come in:
Best Picture
And so it begins. Strong plurality here for Lincoln, a very good, safe movie about one of America's most famous people, directed by one of America's most famous directors, and starring a crazy person (who's one of the world's most famous actors).
Exception: Over 50% of Idahoans own guns, including some people who took the Second Amendment really seriously and actually formed militias. The state is going with military thriller Zero Dark Thirty.
Best Actor
In a landslide vote, SportsNation chooses an unhyphenated "Daniel Day Lewis" from Lincoln.
Exception: After 75 years of Mount Rushmore, South Dakota is apparently tired of seeing Abraham Lincoln's face. The state shows heavy voting for Denzel Washington from Flight.
Best Actress
Take that Lincoln! Speilberg's film had no leading woman, so SportsNation is forced to split its vote between CIA badass Jessica Chastain in Zero Dark Thirty and somewhat sports-aware firecracker Jennifer Lawrence in Silver Linings Playbook.
Exception: In 2012, the coast of Mississippi got smacked with its first hurricane since Katrina. The state is going with Naomi Watts from tsunami disaster-epic The Impossible.
Best Supporting Actor
So close, but Christoph Waltz from Django Unchained is narrowly losing out to Tommy Lee Jones from, yes, Lincoln. It was a banner year for white people disapproving of slavery.
Exception: DC, which is actually a three-way split that also includes Robert de Niro from Silver Lining Playbook. DC lives and breathes politics, dammit. It goes to the movies to relax, not watch a film that builds up to a dramatic senate amendment vote.
Best Supporting Actress
Lincoln falls! Sally Fields, who gave maybe the best Oscar speech of all time, is losing out to Anne Hathaway from Les Miserables. Girl's got pipes!
Exception(s): Vermont, West Virginia, Mississippi, Arkansas, New Mexico, and Alaska don't care about pipes. Also, they like Sally Field. They really do like her.
Best Director
Exceptions: None.

Stepping Forward for Strays in Romania and the EU
by the World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA)
Our thanks to WSPA for permission to republish this post, which appeared on their site on May 15, 2014.
The number of stray dogs in Romania is overwhelmingly high. But with your support, we are working to develop long-term, humane solutions to the problem.
Beginning in May we will be sponsoring a mobile veterinary clinic managed by our partner, Save the Dogs, in the region of Constanta where the stray dog population is especially high. Services provided by the clinic will include the neutering of owned dogs, vaccinations and surgery, as well as educational materials and equipment to help promote responsible pet ownership.
WSPA in discussions with Romanian government
We are in discussions with the government and partners to advise on how best Romania can manage the dog population without going down the route of culling dogs. We have over 30 years' experience in the field of dog population management across the world and are confident that Romania can develop more effective methods to manage stray dogs.
In April, we went to Bucharest to meet with a member of the Romanian Parliament, and representatives from the National Sanitary Veterinary and Food Safety Authority (ANSVSA). We left with a clearer understanding of the reasons for overpopulation and the current strategies in place to deal with the situation.
Currently we are the only international charity communicating with the Romanian government at this level. As a result, the Romanian government has requested our support in developing a national plan of action on dog population management.
First steps towards EU guidelines
We are actively monitoring the situation in Brussels, where the European Commission has been asked by European Parliament to draw up guidelines on the management of stray animals. While this is not legally binding, it does send a strong message to the Commission about their current "lack of mandate" on stray animals.

UPDATE: A 20-year-old college tennis player from Queens was killed when his speeding vehicle slammed into the Camp Merritt Memorial Monument in Cresskill and burst into flames before dawn Saturday, authorities told Daily Voice.
Video from a gas station at the circle shows the crash and explosion, which tore off the front of the 2016 Infiniti Q50, split the rest in two and hurled Christian Gloria about 75 feet just before 4:30 a.m.
Gloria played tennis in high school and was listed on the ASA College team in Manhattan.
"Any factors such as impairment are all still under investigation," Detective Sergeant Jason Lanzilotti told Daily Voice.
DPW workers needed hours to clean up debris scattered in all directions -- including the vehicle's battery, which landed near a diner on the other side of the rotary.
The entire intersection remained closed until about 2 p.m. A quarter remained closed while Bergen County Hazmat and the state DEP conducted soil sampling and ensured no environmental hazards existed.
Lanzilotti said Gloria's speed hadn't yet been conclusively determined but that the vehicle clearly was traveling well in excess of the posted 35mph limit.
The Infinity was headed north on Knickerbocker Road when it barreled onto the island at the circle at Madison Avenue near the Dumont border and struck a huge rock in front of the monument.
The Bergen County Prosecutor's Fatal Accident Investigations Unit joined Cresskill police in probing the crash. The county sheriff's Bureau of Criminal Identification collected evidence.
The monument wasn't damaged.
Designed to look like the Washington Monument, the 66-foot tall obelisk was dedicated in 1924 in honor of 563 men and women who died in a 1918 flu epidemic while stationed at Camp Merritt, an embarkation camp that stretched over 770 acres.
Made of Stony Creek granite, it features a carved relief sculpted by Robert Ingersoll Aitken portraying a World War I doughboy with an eagle above him.
An inscription on the south side says the monument "marks the center of the camp and faces the highway over which more than a million American soldiers passed on their way to and from the World War, 1917–1919."
The dedication was made in front of nearly 20,000 people on Memorial Day 1924 by General John Joseph "Black Jack" Pershing, who led the American forces to victory in World War I.

As part of the bond measure overwhelmingly passed by the voters in November 2000, the San Francisco Public Library is renovating the Park Branch Library. Plans include new accessible restrooms, more defined areas for children, teens, and adults, new and restored furniture, increased capacity for books and other materials, a children's area with interactive early learning features, more functional & ergonomic staff work areas, reconfigured program room with state of the art audio visual equipment, additional computers, new heating system, upgraded electrical & data systems, and much more.
The Park Branch was seismically upgraded and made accessible in the early 1990s. The upcoming renovation will concentrate on complying with current code requirements and remodeling the interior while preserving the historic character of the building.
The Friends of the San Francisco Public Library are raising funds from private donations to pay for new furniture, fixtures, and equipment for the branch libraries.

Installing and using better brakes to go faster
The phenomenon is fairly common in circle track racing. A racer will spend his last penny on his engine or a new set of tires, while ignoring his brake system. Good braking just isn't as sexy as fire-breathing power, or a handling package that makes the car feel like it is riding on rails. In truth, the braking system–and its ability to stop the car quickly, consistently, and without upsetting the suspension–is vital to getting around the track quickly. This ain't drag racing after all. Unless you are racing Daytona or Talladega, you are probably using the brakes at least twice every lap to keep from wadding your car into the wall.
Racers need to consider the braking systems used by professional teams. In many cases, the higher initial cost pays for itself in short order.
Mark Davis, owner of the Carolina Motorsports Tech Center in Conover, North Carolina, recently upgraded the brakes on his Hooters ProCup car. The racing team, known as Carolina Team Concept, is made up of students from the CMTC, but the car is funded just like every other race operation. The goal at the track, just like every other team, is to win.
"We don't have the budget some of the other cars do," Davis says. "But we try to make sure we always do what it takes to win. I know a lot of guys will pinch pennies and think that as long as the brakes don't outright fail, they've done their job. That doesn't address the performance aspect of how the right brake package can help you get around the track: how light they are, how well they resist fading, how stable the calipers are. Things that help you go as fast in the last 10 laps as you did in the first 10. In my opinion, if a part can help you make the move from a Top-5 finish to a win, then it's worth some extra money."
Don Everhart of North American Race Parts provided technical support for this project. Everhart regularly advises race teams at every level on pad/rotor/caliper combinations that best suit their needs. It may sound odd, but hardware choices are actually harder for the Saturday night racer than for the Winston Cup guys. For the regular guy, outright performance and total weight aren't the only determining factors, there's also money and longevity to consider. For our needs, racing the Northern Division of the ProCup Series (Busch-type cars on short tracks), Everhart pointed us toward Alcon six-groove rotors, which are light, at just 11.9 pounds each, but should last the greater part of a season under hard use. For calipers, we chose Alcon B-Type units for the front, which are high-end pieces, but weigh in at just 6.3 pounds each. Even lighter H-Type units (4.5 pounds) were selected for the rear wheels. Performance Friction pads will do the dirty work.
"This isn't an overpowering brake system," Davis says. "But that's OK because we don't want to be hauling a bunch of weight around the track on the wheels. If the brake system is installed correctly and cooled properly, you don't need as much. That's the trick."
Both Davis and Everhart agree that the best thing you can do to ensure dependable stoppers during a long race is to put in the time beforehand. That means regular rebuilds (every four or five races), which include replacing all the seals, as well as changing the brake fluid every week. You need to keep a close watch on fluid temperatures. If you are spiking into the boiling point every week, you need to rethink your cooling system. Recirculators probably aren't necessary, but make sure your ductwork is as straight as possible and unclogged. Just like airflow to the combustion chambers, you want to provide air to cool the brakes in as straight a shot as possible.

Police Seize Eight Dogs After Fatal Mauling Of California Woman
LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- A day after a Southern California woman was fatally mauled by a pack of pit bulls, police were trying to determine on Friday whether any of the eight dogs they seized from a nearby home were involved in the attack, law enforcement officials said.
Homicide detectives serving a search warrant at a home in the unincorporated community of Littlerock, in the high desert about 65 miles east of Los Angeles, took eight dogs from the property, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Captain Mike Parker said.
Six of the canines were pit bulls and the other two were mixed breeds, Parker said.
Police who conducted an exhaustive daylong search for the dogs using helicopters and assisted by Los Angeles Animal Care and Control officers, were led to the house by tips from local residents, Parker said.
A "marijuana grow" operation was found on the property and a 29-year-old man was arrested there on suspicion of pot cultivation. He was not immediately identified by authorities and has not been charged in connection with the dog attack.
Authorities said a driver called police on Thursday morning to report that four pit bulls were mauling a woman by the side of a road in Littlerock.
When a sheriff's deputy arrived on the scene minutes later he found the woman being attacked by a single pit bull, who moved aggressively toward him. The deputy fired twice at the dog, who ran off into the desert apparently unharmed.
The 63-year-old woman died while being rushed to a nearby hospital. An autopsy will be conducted as early as Friday to establish a cause of death in the case, Los Angeles County Coroner's spokesman Ed Winter said.
Winter said the woman's name was being withheld pending notification of next of kin.
Sheriff's deputies warned residents in the area not to approach the dogs, which were described as tan in color, and said that people walking alone should carry a cell phone or whistle in case they were approached by aggressive animals.

Only two weeks after the first overall win for the SLS AMG GT3 at Nurburgring 24 Hours, the German powerhouse has done it again. Setting a Nurburgring Nordschleife (north loop) record, the SLS AMG Coupe Electric Drive broke all past records for the north loop and even made a first for an all-electric vehicle.
Setting a time of 7:56.234, the SLS is the first to make it around in less than eight minutes. With 715 available horsepower and letting out zero emissions this Benz is setting the bar for all other electrically powered supercar companies.
This four-motor car implements AMG Torque Dynamics, which gives individual control to each of the electric motors allowing for optimal performance. AMG Torque Dynamics offers further variability by offering three different driving modes including Comfort, Sport, and Sport Plus. Additionally the energy and power efficiency used in the SLS was derived from the experts behind the Formula 1 KERS technology.
Mercedes-Benz is not only celebrating its incredible record breaking success with the SLS AMG Coupe Electric Drive, but also the official sales launch this month.

Water Gardens & Features Q & A
Q: What's the difference between a decorative pond and a large pond or lake? – Laura in Maryland
A: A pond is a pond, right? Maybe not. Decorative ponds and large ponds or lakes do share several similarities. They're both bodies of water, habitats for fish and wildlife, and they both require upkeep to maintain their pristine beauty. But that's where their similarities end. Upon closer look, decorative ponds and large ponds or lakes differ quite a bit.
Size Matters
A decorative pond fits nicely in a back yard – a suburban back yard, that is. Rarely larger than a 1/8th acre, the decorative pond provides homeowners with a tranquil retreat where they can tend their aquatic plants, care for their fish and relax with a cold drink in hand. They are also usually no more than a few feet in depth.
A large pond or lake, on the other hand, typically takes up an acre or more of space. Rather than decorating a back yard, a lake is often part of a larger landscape and serves some sort of function, whether it be a water element on a golf course, a holding pond for a watershed or a stocked fishing spot. Depths can be 10' or deeper.
Planned Inhabitants
Though wildlife is drawn to decorative ponds, the majority of the critters living there are introduced into the environment. Pond owners fill their features with koi, goldfish, shubunkin and oranda – fish not typically found in the wild in the United States – and they care for them as they would a pet, feeding them and keeping them healthy.
Many decorative ponds also feature potted and planted aquatic plants, like water lilies, bog plants or lotus. Pond owners sculpt and develop their waterscapes with plants, décor and fountains just as they would develop their landscapes.
A large pond or lake is a different story. It's typically stocked with game fish like bass, catfish or trout, and although lake owners can feed the fish and provide habitats for them, the fish can fend for themselves. Plants and landscaping surrounding a large pond or lake also tend to require minimal human intervention – other than controlling invasive weeds or rampant algae blooms.
Clean, Oxygenated Water
Because they're closed systems, decorative ponds require filtration systems to keep the water clean. As biological pollutants, like plant matter and fish waste break down, the mechanical and biological filtration systems remove the pollutants to create an ideal environment for aquatic life.
Many lakes or large ponds, however, are open systems fed by steams or springs that continually refresh the water. The water quality self-regulates, thanks to wild aquatic plants that naturally remove pollutants. Plus, the large bodies of water can be too large (and expensive) to mechanically filter.
Both decorative ponds and large ponds or lakes can benefit from aeration systems that pump oxygen into the water, but the methods differ. Decorative ponds can be aerated with air stones or small diffusers, like the KoiAir™ Aeration System. Larger ponds or lakes can be aerated with fountain aerators, high volume surface aerators, or larger underwater diffuser systems like the Airmax® Aeration System.

John Dunn's '56 Ford F-100
There is much to be said about personal style. Some try and succeed and some fail miserably-at least you could say they never failed to try. Anyone can judge a vehicle on what he or she would change: this part, that part, or those wheels. It happens a lot at shows. Most people walk away from the vehicle and never think about it again. John Dunn is not like most people, and one truck stuck in his mind long after the show was over.
John first fell in love with this truck at a show (Show-Me F-100) in Branson, Missouri, in 2003. The following year he became friends with the owner and had the truck in the back of his mind until 2007 when the deal was struck. Now John was in possession of the orange beast and thought it needed "Dunn's Personal Touch." So the transformation began.
This was not John's first experience with a '56 Ford. There was always an Effie in the works or nearby to enjoy. While driving the new truck home his wheels started spinning as he was trying to decide what parts he would replace first. So first up was moving the front bumper back for a cleaner look. He followed this with a new shiny chrome grille to replace the old damaged unit. John did not want to stop there so he replaced the seat with a custom bench from Interior Supply Services. Outside the doors, newer running boards were in order to make exiting much more assuring. Wanting to remove the smell and the stock fuel tank out of the cab, he replaced it with a 19-gallon tank from Mid Fifty F-100 Parts that mounted under the bed. TCI rear lowering springs were installed and U-bolted to a rebuilt GM 10-bolt rearend with 3.08 gears. John was not happy with the overpowering exhaust noise so he drove the truck to S&S Mufflers of Denison, Texas, where Gaylon installed new headers from Sanderson connected by 21/4-inch plumbing. To help tame the aggressive note from Chevy 350 HO engine, John went with a set of Turbo Oval mufflers.
As mentioned before, there was some previous customizing done to the truck before John got his hands on it. The Ford frame was boxed in for strength to help fit a Fatman Fabrications Mustang II kit. Upgraded stopping power came along with the IFS in the form of a set of five-lug disc brakes, and for the back the stock rear drums were kept. Because of the classic style the Torq-Thrust wheels and BFGoodrich tires are a standard go-to for most truck enthusiasts.
John's F-100 is no trailer queen; he drives it weekly. John jumped in the truck last year and boogied to the F-100 Super Nationals in Knoxville, Tennessee, where he won Top 35 in the '53-56 class. For John it was like winning an Oscar, but then again this is the second truck of his to grace the pages of CLASSIC TRUCKS. Welcome back!
