The Jets have recalled Logan Shaw from Manitoba (AHL).
Shaw has registered three goals and two assists (five points) in eight games with the Moose this season. He comes up to replace Mason Appleton, who was placed on IR with a broken foot. Shaw has 31 points (12G / 18A) in 180 career NHL games with the Panthers, Ducks and Canadiens.
The Jets have signed Logan Shaw to one-year, two-way contract.
Shaw spent the entire season in the AHL, where led the Manitoba Moose in goals (27) and was second in points (46). The former third-round pick has now been with a handful of different franchises since being drafted by the Panthers in 2011 but will stick with the Jets for at least one more season. Shaw has 12 goals and 19 assists (31 points) in 180 career NHL games with the Panthers, Ducks and Canadiens.
The Jets have assigned Logan Shaw to Manitoba (AHL).
Shaw was signed to a two-way contract on Sunday and heads to Manitoba to start his Jets career. Shaw was originally with the Ducks on a PTO, picking up five points (2G / 3A) in seven games with San Diego (AHL) before signing in Winnipeg.
The Jets have signed Logan Shaw to a two-way contract.
The Canadiens have claimed Logan Shaw off of waivers from the Ducks.
Shaw was a healthy scratch in Los Angeles on Saturday and was placed on waivers on Sunday after the Ducks claimed J.T. Brown from the Lightning. Shaw has just two goals and six assists (eight points) in 42 games with the Ducks.
The Ducks have signed Logan Shaw to a one-year deal worth $650K.

Grants Office, LLC
Tuesday, June 15, 2010
By Susannah Mayhall
June 2010 (GO Know)
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 infused an unprecedented sum of public funding into the struggling American economy, making over $700 billion available for education, healthcare, public safety, and more. The Recovery Act bolstered support for new initiatives such as broadband infrastructure and energy efficiency. These massive amounts of funding produced a flurry of interest from various private sector industries, all hoping to become involved and receive their share of the stimulus.
Over a year later, some of the excitement seems to have dwindled; many ARRA grant programs have come and gone, some are winding down, and only a small pocket of funding has yet to be released. For many of us, the apparent end of the Recovery Act programs leaves questions hovering in the grant funding world: Where will we go from here? Is the stimulus over? Will any of these programs receive continued support, or were they truly one-off opportunities? Will there be a second Recovery Act?
While a full-fledged "second Recovery Act" is not expected in the near future, we have already seen encouraging signs that the opportunities crafted by the ARRA will find a home in the annual funding distributed by the twenty-six federal grant-making agencies. Beyond outlining trends for future federal grant funding practices, the Recovery Act's reach has begun to manifest itself in the annual grants landscape.
In the field of education, the historic Race to the Top program has been targeted for renewal in 2011. Additionally, the $650 million Investing in Innovation (i3) program has inspired the collaboration of 12 private foundations, bringing an additional $500 million to the program's efforts to improve our public schools and encourage innovative educational models. This unprecedented public/private partnership may be the start of a funding trend in years to come. In healthcare, the Primary Care Training and Enhancement Program, a medical training program initially authorized by the Recovery Act, has been reinstituted through 2014 by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) of 2010. These case studies serve as examples of the ways in which the influence of the Recovery Act will continue long after the last dollar appropriated through its legislation has been distributed.
In addition to introducing new programs that have now been reauthorized for annual budgets, the Recovery Act also animated existing programs that lacked funding prior to the ARRA but will likely be continued in the future. One such example is the Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) Program. Although authorized in 2007, the program did not receive funding until the 2009 Recovery Act. However, now that wide-reaching energy efficiency grant programs have been successfully implemented on the federal level, we anticipate this field to continue to grow as a funding priority over the next few years.
These small but significant signs of new life serve to corroborate the assertion that the Recovery Act's influence will continue in future years. Although much of the $787 billion stimulus monolith has already been doled out, now is the time to continue riding the momentum created by the Recovery Act by actively tracking and pursuing the $400 billion-plus reality of annual grant program funding.

I have a question!
(2282 hits)
Now, usually when I ask a question, it is never really answered. Most respond expresses some type of emotional anger towards me. Others say that I worship White people. While others say, I put down Black people. Neither sentiment is the case. However, I am sincerely looking for intelligent answers, because I know within those answers it should turn on a light bulb in the minds of Black Americans, hopefully speaking.
Now here is the question. From a scientific point of view, it would be safe to say that God created dark skinned people before Caucasian people appeared since the genes of dark skinned people are dominant to that of Caucasian people.
This concept would translate into that dark skinned people were in existence hundreds of thousands of years before Caucasian people carve their mark in humanity.
Now, I am going to extract one type of Caucasian people and that is the American White people as an example of what I will say further.
Now, it is obvious to all races of people that the American White people, for the most part, are dealing with and overcoming all the different worlds in God's universe known at the moment.
For instance, White American people have engineered submarines to explore some of the deepest oceans on this earth while Black Americans leaders and people do not think in these technological terms, why it is that way?
Black Americans complains and whines all the time, and spend their mental energy on righteousness and religion rather than the thinking in terms of becoming a sovereign people to accomplish some of these daring things White Americans are engaged in, why it is that way?
Hence, is it true that White Americans are better thinkers than Black Americans are?
In other words, why it is that Black Americans are so far behind?
What say you?

Very interesting concept(s), Mr. Watley.
Saturday, July 25th 2009 at 1:30PM
As you say blacks were here before whites. Now why the whites developed technology first, who knows? But as to the supremacy of technology, first, it's not true it belongs to whites. Second, maybe it's better to have heart, technology is easily abused.
Saturday, July 25th 2009 at 2:00PM
Steve Williams
White Americans don't hold the patten to technology. Yes they have developed many things but they have also taken others ideas and made them their own. There are to many black inventors who have helped developed the technology we have today.
Saturday, July 25th 2009 at 2:30PM
Janice Kelley
....."In other words, why it is that Black Americans are so far behind? " Mr. Watley, could it be the fullfillment of the "Willie Lynch" doctrine, that is so prevalent amongst BIA?
Saturday, July 25th 2009 at 2:38PM
By definition, technology is the practical application of knowledge especially in a particular area. I think that the ability to use what you have when you have it is more incredible than pushing a button on a remote. With the proper schooling, anything can be done if the intellectual capacity exists.
What you seem to be missing are the developments of those African cultures using only their minds and manual tools. Did you know that we developed the first numeration system? Or that we were the first to navigate the oceans in ships made of reeds? Not to mention the architecture of empires. And yes, viewing and studying the stars and building flying machines.
Saturday, July 25th 2009 at 3:26PM
George Milliken
There is no one obvious answer to your question(s). That being said, I do think Blacks should challenge themselves and those around them to accomplish things outside of the scriptures. If it is not written in the scriptures, Blacks don't seem interested in pursuit. I wish the scriptures specifically called the believers to intellectual advance -- like Judaism, for example.
But on a different note. Why is it that we still struggle with simple Engrish? And I don't mean jut spelling but simple sentence structure and subject/verb unions? How can we attain to higher accomplishments when we still can't get beyond first grade Engrish???
Saturday, July 25th 2009 at 3:36PM
Mr. Watley. Perhaps my answer will share some light on your questions..."Why is it that Black Americans are so far behind?"......&......."Is it true that White Americans are better thinkers than Black Americans"
First, White Americans are not better thinkers. However, they do think, whereas Black Americans do not, as a whole. Ex....look at the responses you get whenever you post a blog. In logic Mr. Watley, there are three categories of informal fallacies.
1. Fallacies of Relevance.
2. Fallacies of Weak Induction
3. Fallacies of Presumption.
I will give you an example from each category:
A) Fallacies of Presumption.
Complex question: Multiple questions are concealed in a single question.
B) Fallacies of Weak Induction
Appeal to unqualified authority: Arguer cites untrustworthy authority.
Appeal to ignorance: Premises report that nothing is known or proved, and then a conclusion is drawn.
C) Fallacies of Relevance
Straw man: Arguer distorts opponent's argument and then attacks the distorted argument.
Argument against the person(abusive): Arguer verbally abuses the other arguer.
Now Mr. Watley, these rules of logic apply to respondents on your blog(s) as well. When you read their responses, you are in a reverse role. You are the audience/listener.
What say you my friend, Mr. Harry Watley.
Saturday, July 25th 2009 at 5:30PM
Oops...Mr. Watley. I omitted 2 other categories. And they are: Fallacies of Ambiguity and Fallacies of Grammatical Analogy. Harry, I will leave you with this final comment, from me anyways. Reasoning is itself a special kind of thinking. Check this out Harry, I will give you 5 examples of thinking.
1. "I was wondering whether I would get a job."
2. "I was trying to remember what book I had to buy for the course."
3. "I was hesitating whether to wait any longer."
4. "I really can't say-I suppose I was just wool-gathering."
5. "My younger brother asked me this morning how a heavy-airplane could float in
air-I was trying to figure out the answer.
All of these people are thinking, but only the last was engaged in reasoning.
My friend Mr. Harry Watley what say you? You are engaged in reasoning Harry. Is your audience/readers engaged in the same mental activity as you?
Saturday, July 25th 2009 at 5:54PM
Hello to All,
Hello Earl,
Of your examples, # 5 requires you to coherently and logically reason, since there is a definite answer and not just a maybe or guess-working. The answer is based on the knowledge of aerodynamics. I agree with you. What say you?
Hello, Mr. Williams,
I disagree with you on a feud thinks. Firstly, I believe that Whites developed technology first because of their tremendous appetite to know about any thing in God's universe. Furthermore, I never said that technology belongs to Whites.
Secondly, choosing heart over technology will stop the mental growth of man, which is unacceptable to God. Am I right or am I wrong? What say you?
Hello, Janice Kelley,
There is no such thing as any race of people having a pattern on technology. Man's greatest resource is his brain. Now, if I develop something and you are able to take it from me and catapult yourself in front of me, then you are using your brain better than I have used mines. Am I right or am I wrong? What say you?
Hello George,
I agree with your definition that technology is the practical application of knowledge, and that is as far as go. I believe that what you are doing is comparing how it used to be and you and I know that does not count. What counts is how things are today. Am I right or am I wrong? Therefore, my question is why are Black Americans so far behind? What say you?
Hello, Amos,
Firstly, I apologize for my bad English. I do use my grandma check, and I will try to do better as the time passes.
Secondly, there are two obvious answers to my question. [A] slavery, and [B] pure mental laziness. Dark skinned people were in existence for hundreds of thousands of years and did absolutely nothing to advance the quality of life, which was unacceptable to God, big time. God's safety net (evolution) kicked in and brought forth the different races, which ended with the Caucasian race to do what we would not do, when we had the opportunity.
We should have been blessed with the crown as good stewards of the earth. However, Caucasian people as that crown today.
The law of nature is that if you do not use it, you will lose it and the Native American Indians have lost this continent to the Caucasian people. Am I right or am I wrong? What say you?
Saturday, July 25th 2009 at 9:31PM
Harry Watley
Harry, I have to disagree with your statment....."and the Native American Indians have lost this continent to the Caucasian people." The lost/defeat of the Native Americans.....Was not due [for/ too] lack of heart, spirit, or intelligence of self. Their demise can be solely attributed to....."Lack of Technology." No Guns.
Sunday, July 26th 2009 at 4:30AM
Irma, we were taught about Eli Whitney. I don't understand what you mean about the light bulb though, we were taught it was Thomas Edison. I'll try to be more precise about what I'm saying. I meant that there was something about European development which led to the colonizing of America and future technological development. Once the technology was introduced, all races contributed to its development. But why did the Europeans achieve technological superiority in the first place? Was it something about their nature or their environment? But we know it wasn't because of their intelligence, which is equal among all races.
Harry, hopefully that addresses the first part of your question. As to the other, I've always been interested in technology, believed we'd be on the moon by now, for instance. But the space race was political and thus achieved early success but was not followed through on when the political reason disappeared. Likewise I was a developer behind the internet since 1983, but refer to the census results for 2007: 69% of white households have internet access, only 51% of black households. So technology by itself doesn't bring benefit - how are we going to address this discrepancy?
Sunday, July 26th 2009 at 9:42AM
Steve Williams
Hello Ms. Irma,
You are straying too far from the question of my blog. The question has to do with technology and why Black Americans are so far behind White Americans. Now, technology is the discipline dealing with the art or science of applying scientific knowledge to practical problems.
Now, my question was why are White Americans so far in front of Black Americans and other races? I believe the answer is that Caucasian people has an insatiable appetite for knowledge while Black Americans do not. White Americans are scientifically hundreds of years advanced than Black Americans are why it is that way. What say you?
Hello Earl,
I do not know what made you think that I thought the Native American Indians lost this continent to White Americans because of a lack of heart and spirit. The Native American Indians succumbed to White America's technology; bow and arrow had no advantages over the guns of White America. Therefore, I think that we are saying the same thing. However, the question is why is White America hundreds of years, advanced than Black Americans are in life? What say you?
Hello Steve,
In my way of thinking, technology is not an object hidden under a rock that whatever race finds it first gives that race an advantage over other races. Technology is the scientific knowledge applied to resolve practical and difficult problems. For instance, the crane represents scientific technology to lift objects that other wise man could not move. Having said this you could see that the technology of the crane would have greatly helped the Egyptians when they built the pyramids, if it was possible to merge yesterday with today.
You are closer than anyone is about an answer as to why European people achieve technical advantage over the other races. Inborn in their nature is an unquenchable appetite to know about things, scientifically speaking and to know translates into advancement in life over the other races. What say you?
Sunday, July 26th 2009 at 12:44PM
Harry Watley
Hello Irma,
I am not disagreeing with you about the things that Blacks came up with, even though I did not specifically know about burning the cottonseed for light.
However, what I am saying is that since the slaves belonged to White people anything the slaves came up with, belonged to White people. Once you understand this point of mines, you should understand how relevant the concept of sovereignty is for Black Americans, who are descendents of slaves.
What say you?
Sunday, July 26th 2009 at 2:24PM
Harry Watley
Hello Ms. Irma,
Irma, why is it that you do not understand anything? I am going to tell you the one more time, and then I am going to leave it alone, because I see you cannot learn.
This is the statement you need to comment on and nothing else.
I said this, "However, what I am saying is that since the slaves belonged to White people anything the slaves came up with, belonged to White people. Once you understand this point of mines, you should understand how relevant the concept of sovereignty is for Black Americans, who are descendents of slaves".
What do you think about my statement? If it is too difficult for you to answer, then just tell me that you do not know the answer. I will then help you develop the right answer.
What say you?

Steve, would you say that the cotton gin and the light bulb is thec, that actually helped put America in the paths to become a #1 nation...do you have any idea who invented both of them...I will give you a big hit,I bet you did not read any of this in any school that had an African-American history department now did you?!?(smile)
We still believe that slaves could not read or write, correct?
I will give you anothe hint...the south was built on rice not cotton, but it has not been taught in your history books in White history books because to do so would have you not being able to give SLAVES credit for making it possible for the south to exist as #1 in richness in this nation, right?(smile)
Thursday, April 10th 2014 at 6:47PM
...the thec used to do all of this deep sea diving, was actually invented by the CHINESE...
Thursday, April 10th 2014 at 6:47PM
Brother Harry, if you go to my profile you will see that I am not only Black, but have a college degree in our history that wa taught by our truth not the White man's truths.
Eli Whitney as Thomas Edison learned the what and the how toos just like Ben franklin and took full advantage of this knowing they could get away with it. but, as I said this illusion will only continue as long as WE continue to believe that slaves could not read and write and werelazy and stupid.
Eddison got the idea fro the light bulb as the biggest problem was trying to keep the feliment in the bulb burning. He learned this from Black cotton workers on how they kept lights burning by using cotton seeds(smile)
This is all taught in African-America history taught from the African-Centered view point and not from the European -centet and this is why you will never see this part of BIA on the CNN BIA specials(smile)
Steve, there is always a different side to all tings...night , day...but they all have a part to play...the energy in that atomic bomb that killed so many, can when used another way can make the electric bill in our homes much, much cheaper...
(*the Chinese created this 1000s and 1000s of years ago!!!!!!!!)
Thursday, April 10th 2014 at 6:47PM
...so sorry, the Blacks had a special way of burning the cotton seed under a glass jar to get light to shine at night and it lasted a long time...
Thursday, April 10th 2014 at 6:47PM
my people, my people, why do we insist on giving the White people credit for having done any thing but:rape, rob, kill and steal every thing they have ever done...why oh, why do we keep doing this to ourselves....I am so glad that some of us have taken the time to learn who and what we are and starting from...Africa had city states and law, long before they took it to europe!!!!!!All it takes is throwing away too things...believing that you will go to hell for using your own unlimited powers and study some truths about mankind. It will take a lot of effort and actually a commitment to throw away this MIND CONTROL that keeps us not doing this....if not us then for our people in the next century. This is the least we can do as even the blacks in slavery left a history of their lives and it sure is not what you have been taught, This I promise you,,,If you are interested go to your nearest College and pick up a book or attend any class in the Black history department any class that you choose......(smile)

The Holocaust Memorial Center (HMC) in Farmington Hills hosted an award ceremony May 17 for the second annual Kappy Family Anne Frank Art & Writing Competition.
The competition is presented with support from the Kappy family. Garry Kappy was born in Opatow, Poland. He was imprisoned in different labor camps when he was 15 years old and survived the horrors of the Buchenwald and Auschwitz concentration camps. While Kappy recognizes the importance of memorializing Holocaust victims, he felt it was crucial to find a way to engage and educate young adults to combat hatred and help prevent future genocides. This inspiration led to the competition.
The award ceremony was attended by student winners, their families and teachers as well as the Kappy family and HMC leadership and staff. For many of the students, this was their first time meeting a Holocaust survivor and was a truly humbling experience.
This year's theme was "The Power of Hope." The competition, open to students in grades 9-12 in Oakland and Macomb counties, drew submissions from more than two dozen high schools as well as homeschooled students who created written and artistic responses to a quote by Anne Frank: "Where there's hope, there's life. It fills us with fresh courage and makes us strong again."
The winning art and writing submissions are on display at the HMC through Aug. 24.

EuropaCorp was France's top film exporter in 2017 in terms of the international box office achieved by French majority and minority French productions on its slate, the country's cinema export agency UniFrance has revealed.
According to a report by the body looking at preliminary figures for the 2017 international box office, titles on the EuropaCorp sales slate - led by Luc Besson's sci-fi tale Valerian And The City Of A Thousand Planets - achieved some 31.4m admissions worldwide in 2017.
EuropaCorp also topped the international box office chart for majority French productions as well as for the best performing producers.
In the backdrop, however, the Unifrance figures come amid a difficult time for the company as it retrenches due to the overall poor performance of the big budget Valerian And The City Of A Thousand Planets in relation to its past English-language productions aimed at global audiences such as Lucy and Taken 3, which drew some 54 million and 43.6 million spectators respectively.
Gaumont, SND take second and third place
In the chart combining majority and minority productions, Gaumont came in second with 14.02m entries, generated mainly by family animation Ballerina, World War Two drama A Bag Of Marbles and Olivier Nakache and Eric Toledano's wedding reception comedy C'est La Vie!.
SND Group followed with 6.83 international admissions, thanks in large part to Omar Sy-starring comedy drama Two Is A Family and children's animation The Jungle Bunch: The Movie.
Auteur cinema
Wild Bunch held on to its traditional position of top sales agent for independent auteur fare in terms of international box office, with its titles – led by Ken Loach's I, Daniel Blake, breakout genre hit Raw and feature animation The Red Turtle – generating 2.6m admissions.
The other top sales agent for auteur cinema was Playtime (formerly Films Distribution) which saw its recent slate – led by François Ozon's World War One drama Frantz and erotic thriller Amant Double as well as Raoul Peck's political costume drama The Young Karl Marx - draw 1.7m spectators internationally in 2017.
UniFrance released the top 10 charts as a teaser for its full report on the international box office for French cinema in 2017 which will be unveiled on Jan 19 during the upcoming Rendez-vous With French Cinema in Paris (18-22).
On the basis of these preliminary figures, covering the period up to Dec 15, French productions appear to have done better internationally in 2017 than in 2016, which saw the international box office slump by some 70% to 34m admissions, against 111m in 2015.
Top 10 Exporters – majority and minority French productions (company, admissions, top titles)
1. EuropaCorp, 31.4m (Valerian And The City Of A Thousand Planets, Miss Sloane)
2. Gaumont, 14.02m (Ballerina, A Bag Of Marbles, C'est La Vie!)
3. SND, 6.83m (Two Is A Family, The Jungle Bunch: The Movie, A Bras Ouverts)
4. Wild Bunch, 2.6m (I, Daniel Blake, Raw, The Red Turtle)
5. Kinology, 1.88m (Overdrive, Mune, Planetarium)
6. Playtime (formerly Films Distribution), 1.70m (Frantz, Amant Double, The Young Karl Marx)

Compton-Dominguez High School engineering duo crowned national champions
COMPTON (MNS)— Two Manuel Dominguez High School students have been crowned winners in the national Mathematics Engineering Science Achievement's (MESA) engineering design competition for 2015, the second such honor in eight years for a school
COMPTON (MNS)— Two Manuel Dominguez High School students have been crowned winners in the national Mathematics Engineering Science Achievement's (MESA) engineering design competition for 2015, the second such honor in eight years for a school in the Compton Unified School District.
The award-winning duo of Azucena Castro and Jennifer Barrientos, took top honors for the most affordable and efficient design of a prosthetic arm at this year's competition held at Weber University in Ogden, Utah, June 17-20.
In 2007, Compton's Franklin D. Roosevelt Middle School won the national title.
Dominguez's UC-bound MESA engineers competed against teams from 10 states. Their winning entry was fashioned using a mailing tube, duct tape, rubber bands, synthetic belt, a claw, and eraser. The budget for the arm was only $25, well below budget restrictions for the competition.
MESA advisor Emmanuel Ikeokonta expressed pride for his students' success.
"This is the very first time Dominguez has gone to the national competition for high schools. It means the world to me," Ikeokonta said. "I've watched these students grow over the years. They are not just students to me. They are my children."
Bound for the University of California at Berkeley, Castro, who will pursue a major in computer science, expressed hope that her triumph will inspire other Compton students to reach high in their academic conquests.
"I hope we can influence other [students] to do the same," she said. "I was in shock when we won. The other teams were very good, but we are an example of how Compton students can succeed."
For Jennifer Barrientos, who will enter U.C. Irvine in the fall in pursuit of a biomedical engineering degree, said she hoped the honor of a national title will send a message "that our city can do anything.
"It was an amazing experience and I'm glad I participated in the MESA program," she said.
Micah Ali, president of CUSD's Governing Board of Trustees, said Dominguez's national title is further proof of the ongoing academic turnaround taking place in Compton schools.
"This historic win is the result of Compton Unified's embrace of STEM into our science curriculum," Ali said. "Without question, STEM is a vital avenue through which our students acquire math and science skills needed to succeed in college and career. This is a prime example of how our students can compete and succeed at the highest level."

Joao Plata had two goals, Juan Manuel Martinez scored on a deflection in the 94th minute and Real Salt Lake tied the Los Angeles Galaxy 3-3 on Wednesday night to remain undefeated at home this season.
Manuel Martinez raced up the sideline in transition, took five touches to get to the corner of the 18-yard box and sent a deflected shot under goalkeeper Brian Rowe.
Real Salt Lake (12-8-8) and Los Angeles (10-4-14) are tied for second place in the Western Conference — seven points behind FC Dallas (15-7-6).
Giovani dos Santos had two goals and an assist to help Los Angeles build a 3-1 lead by the 64th minute. But three minutes later, Plata scored to pull RSL to 3-2. Yura Movsisyan gathered a cross inside the box, drew two defenders and tapped it to an open Plata for a shot into the upper corner.
In the sixth minute, Dos Santos rolled a long through ball and Emmanuel Boateng beat his defender to slot it home for a 1-0 Los Angeles lead. In the 57th, Baggio Husidic chipped a free kick from near midfield and dos Santos powered it off the right hand of Nick Rimando for a 2-1 lead. Dos Santos made it 3-1 in the 64th when Jeff Larentowicz redirected a header off the crossbar and dos Santos sent in the rebound.
RSL midfielder Kyle Beckerman made his 400th MLS appearance to become the only field player in league history to accomplish the feat.

AN ADORABLE & SWEET FELLOW: 11 years old / 60 lbs. Mostly Mutts adoption center is open Mon-Sat. 11-4pm. Some of us are in foster homes so please call 770-272-6888 1st to find out if I'm available to meet during the week. I'm a sweet boy who loves chin scratches & enjoys being petted for as long as you like, & just hanging out near you. I liked the other two dogs in my former foster home that were about my size, & I've also liked the smaller dogs I've met too, so if you have a nice dog at home, let's meet & see if we can be friends. I also met a kitty at the MM facility & did very well with her. I'm an older guy, so I have some hind leg weakness & shouldn't live in a home with too many stairs, & I do best on carpeted areas or hard floors that have rugs. I have a little mischievous side which is kind of cute given my age. I once took a fork from the dishwasher & I sometimes like socks that may be laying around. LOL Please keep a close eye on me if I do get a hold of a sock or around any plush/stuffed dog toys as I tend to confuse them for snacks & may eat them, which will make me very sick. I haven't gotten on the furniture, due to my leg weakness, but I'm perfectly happy in a nice comfy dog bed near you. I crated well in my former foster home, but after a while I no longer needed it. I have done well with my potty manners on a good schedule, but I'm not sure I could hold it all day. Sometimes I have #2 accidents in my sleep because I think I have lost a little feeling back there, but they are easy to pick up. I also had some #2 accidents during the day in my former foster home, sometimes I don't realize I have to go until it's too late. It's best I'm let out frequently, & a doggie door may be a good option for me (though it's not required). Since I'm an older fellow, I have some diminished eye sight, but it's not too bad, just be careful when giving me treats from your hand as I LOVE treats and have accidentally gobbled at hands holding treats. Oops, I didn't mean to! I seem to have some seasonal allergies that cause my eyes to get a little goopy, so I use eye drops as needed. I take a Glucosamine supplement for joint health & fish oil to keep my coat looking nice as I tend to have dry skin & sometimes a little dandruff. I also take a medication called Rimadyl as needed to help with pain & inflammation in my hips & back legs. You can throw the pills right in my bowl & I'll chomp them down with my dog food, yum! I get anxious during thunderstorms sometimes, but I wore a Thunder shirt in my former foster home & that seemed to comfort me a little. I love being outside in my yard with my people or another nice dog for a little while, sniffing around & enjoying the sun & a gentle breeze on warmer days. I get little burst of energy when I'm outside too, & I enjoy short walks. I'm very good on the leash, I don't pull at all & I love a nice, slow pace. I ride well in the car once I'm situated, & I use a ramp to get in & out. I also use a sling as needed to support my back end when I need a little help standing up or on slippery surfaces, so just ask about that. Older kids would be best for me due to my size & that I take treats a bit roughly. Check out my Instagram page (Granger @mostly_granger) for more pictures of this GrAngelic face! Energy level: 2-4. Sadly, I wasn't kept on Heart Worm prevention in my previous home, but I'll easily be treated for that at home with a specific heart worm monthly treat. I'm current on vaccinations, micro-chipped, neutered, and my adoption fee is $100.00 which also includes an engraved name tag, Martingale collar and leash.

I was so worried all yesterday and today about what would be my first post of the year. I was convinced that since it was the first in this 365 series it was going to have to be very important. I wanted my first post to set a tone. To describe me and my life. I wanted a picture which spoke 1,000 words. Well, I got one.
I have seen film footage of lion prides devouring a kill, mercilessly shredding it to bits, leaving no part of it intact. They've got nothin' on a one-year-old with a birthday cake.
My niece, Addyson Olivia Jackson, was born on New Year's Eve last year. So, yes, her birthday was technically yesterday. But because of various scheduling reasons, her first birthday party was held here (at Mima's — which is 'Grandma' in Addyson-speak) tonight. And I swear, for most of the cake killing she looked like she thought she was getting away with something.
It was as if she knew there was something wrong with all of this goodness in one place at one time. Though, she looked like she absolutely loved all of the attention.
And she seemed to have something to teach the adults present about unadulterated gluttony. Yeah, she definitely knew there was something about which to celebrate.
While, for some of the evening, she may have resembled a ravenous animal, mostly she was a perfect little angel.


text: There is one element that provides a car with a unique identity. It is called the VIN or Vehicle Identification Number. This unique code, made up of letters and numbers too, acts as a key for all of those who have access to it. With the VIN, you can find out about a car's history, including any accidents that it may have suffered. And all of this can be done with the right online services, which are easily found. Thus, there is no arguing the importance and the power of a VIN number in the state of Alabama. It can be invaluable when you are buying a car and when you are selling one.

Calgary's Walkscore Contenders: The Future Of Walkability In Calgary
Posted by Krista Kehoe on Thursday, October 2nd, 2014 at 9:32am.
Calgary has long been considered a car-dependent city, and in most neighbourhoods this still rings true. But a new renewed effort to promote walkability has taken the downtown communities by storm.
What these three neighbourhoods have in common is their proclivity for a walkable lifestyle and continued development in that direction.
Legend: WS=Walk Score & TS=Transit Score
Eau Claire (WS 91 & TS 81)
Many Calgarians have been making trips to Eau Claire market since they were kids, exploring the boutiques, eating treats, and watching IMAX movies. Eau Claire residents chose the convenient proximity to shopping and work, which is how the area merited its high walkcore.
Prince's Island Park is quite literally a stone's throw away. Here, Eau Claire residents and visitors alike enjoy the wide green fields and annual events, including Folkfest. Just west of the island is the Peace Bridge, which connects Eau Claire to Kensington.
Over the next few years, Eau Claire will see a dramatic redevelopment, with new mixed-use planning coming into place. The revitalization of one of Calgary's favourite shopping areas will be comprised of condo development, new commercial spaces, and a greater draw for economic activity.
Downtown East Village (WS 90 & TS 83)
This inner-city Calgary community was constructed with walkability in mind, sky rocketing it to the top walkscore communities in the city in just a few short years. The project broke ground in 2007, and some $180 million has already been invested into the existing infrastructure. Since last year, the WS has increased by 4 points, and we're willing to bet that it will continue to grow.
What makes this community so walkable? Smart planning for mixed-use development has created a village within a bustling city. The developers wisely reinvest into the community, and the project isn't even close to completion, leading us to believe that new endeavours and increased popularity will continue to boost the walk score.
RiverWalk, one of the walkable lifestyle initiatives, is an in-progress four kilometer walking and biking path along the Bow River. This project plays into the overall goals of sustainability, with the first phase seeing a major river clean up.
Hillhurst/Sunnyside (WS 85/85 & TS 71/72)
Another stalwart staple to the city's list of trendy communities, Kensington has been a walkable community since its inaugural days as a working-class community. This heritage has continued to influence its development, maintaining a relaxed lifestyle for residents near the BRZ. Today, Kensington is a popular shopping district that comprises the communities of Hillhurst and Sunnyside.
A number of new condo developments are underway, each of which is lauding the walk scores of these two communities. This increase in high-density residential space will spur economic activity, and the Kensington BRZ is fully prepared to embrace these new condos yet preserve the small-town feel of the area. In fact, this September they were awarded with the Downtown Merit Award for the redevelopment planned aimed at walkability in a bustling downtown community.
Not only is the community easily accessible by foot, but it's also a central point for accessing the LRT. Sunnyside Station connects residents to the core, as well as to the NW line. From there they can easily transfer to other lines and communities. Whether commuting for work or play, Hillhurst and Sunnyside residents are just a hop, skip, and a jump away from their final destination.

Prosthetic eyes have many benefits for individuals who wear them. In fact, artificial eyes have changed the lives of many people all over the world. The technological advances that have developed in regards to prosthetic eyes over the years have made them incredibly natural and very difficult to recognize by those who are unaware the wearer has been fitted with a prosthetic eye. There are many personal benefits provided by artificial eyes, however the following are some benefits most all wearers of prosthetic eyes will experience.
Self Esteem
Many individuals who have lost an eye, or both, suffer from self esteem issues. Having a prosthetic eye that appears exactly like the other eye really increases an individual s self esteem because they no longer appear to have a disability . Additionally, having an artificial eye that looks real will truly complete a person s appearance so they look just like everyone else. Hiding one s disability with an artificial eye makes people feel comfortable in their own skin and truly helps them feel attractive. Any individual that has had a prosthetic eye fitted will immediately feel "whole" again and experience a major boost in self confidence.
Physical Appearance
Many individuals choose to have a prosthetic eye custom made and fitted in order to improve their appearance and make them look like the rest of the world. Having a disability is difficult, especially one that is vision related. Few individuals feel comfortable displaying their disability to the public simply because of the stares and rude questions strangers ask. However, people who are missing an eye or both don t feel comfortable always wearing a patch. Beyond that, there are not many options for people with this disability unless they choose a prosthetic eye. Fortunately, individuals may have prosthetic eyes custom made by an ocularist that specializes in making artificial eyes. Prosthetic eyes are manufactured and composed of acrylic. In the process of creation, the iris is hand-painted and based on the existing eye of new owner. The custom artificial eyes can be created to very closely match and therefore improve an individual s physical appearance while giving them the confidence they deserve.
Proper Facial Function
Another benefit of a prosthetic eye is that it allows the body to function properly. For example, after the loss of an eye if a prosthetic eye is not soon fitted then the eye socket will begin to close in on itself and the eyelid will droop and not function properly. Having a prosthetic eye in place allows the eye socket to retain its proper shape and size. It also allows the eyelid to function correctly. Because of this the prosthetic eye is not just a way to complete one s appearance but it is also a way to ensure the eye socket and rest of the eye anatomy function properly. These are just a few of the benefits provided by prosthetic eyes. Each individual may experience other benefits based on their personal circumstances. Overall, those who are missing an eye or both will benefit significantly with an artificial eye.

Welcome to Copenhagen, Denmark!
Four countries, twelve days, 114 miles walking, and 2,039 driving! We couldn't have asked for a better way to start and end our big Scandinavian adventure other than in the lovely city of Copenhagen. Although we were jet-lagged with bloodshot eyes upon our arrival, we were rearing to start exploring as soon as we got off the plane. It was my first time in a foreign country and I was overwhelmed with wonderment. As we drove through the city in our rental car, I almost gave myself whiplash craning my neck so hard to see all of the beautiful sights. Quite a few of the buildings had turquoise spirals that jutted above the city sky-line. I was amazed by the little differences that come with being in a foreign country and I couldn't help but gasp or point when I saw them. The layout of the streets were small and narrow and even the streetlights were strange, turning yellow after red. There were more bikes than pedestrians and cars combined, and they zipped through the streets even in the poor rainy weather we had arrived in. My excitement mixed with the spirit of Copenhagen made the feeling of the cozy, quaint city almost tangible. Copenhagen surely welcomed us with the traditional Danish "hygge"; a feeling I will never forget.
After the initial shock and awe of being in Copenhagen started to settle, Zen and I decided to find some food. We had been traveling for 18 hours, squished in full cabins on every flight and only fed the measly microwave dinner food they serve on the planes. We were famished and our bodies were screaming for real food. We made our way to Nyhavn to find Færgrekro, a restaurant I had found during research on the city. We climbed down into this little basement restaurant, ducking out of the rain. Once inside, we were warmly welcomed by one of the servers. We clearly looked like American tourists because he only ever spoke English to us, even before we said anything ourselves. We were seated in the back corner of the restaurant right next to a warm fire as the friendly server patiently helped translate the menu. We decided on a couple of smørrebrød (fish on bread) dishes. My meal was the best, of course. I chose smoked salmon with cheese and capers on bread. Zen ordered a shrimp pasta on bread as well as Swedish meatballs on bread. Everything about the atmosphere and food was authentic. We enjoyed our meals by candlelight and discussed the beautiful little city while we waited for the rain to lighten up.
The iconic canal street of Nyhavn was one of our favorite parts of our whole trip. The buildings on the North side were colored and scrunched together. Since we were no longer focused on fueling ourselves, we were able to absorb the beauty of the painted houses and restaurants. The former red-light district was bright and alive! Old sailboats were docked along the canal, there was a street performer playing the accordion and people laughed and conversed on the heated porches of restaurants. The colorful background created perfect photo opportunities both for portrait and landscape pictures. We enjoyed this little strip of Copenhagen so much that we came back and visited it a couple more times during our trip.
We made our way through the city knocking out all of the top tourist attractions since we only had a little time left before calling it a day. At the top of our list was The Little Mermaid. When we stumbled upon her, we were quite unimpressed. The iconic statue was underwhelming and deflating after all the hype. She was small and placed in front of power plants, making it an unsightly view. We snapped a couple of quick shots just for the memories, and then moved on. Luckily, our next stop compensated for our disappointment. The sun was setting which made the colors and light dance behind the Gefion Fountain. The statues were beautifully carved and the fountain was spectacular next to an old church.
After the sun had set and the streets started to clear, we decided to take refuge at our hostel. We were beat and utterly exhausted. Sleep in Heaven was accurately named for how well we slept that night.

A couple of days ago a friend of mine sent me some pictures of a bike he saw on his commute.
There are so many classic (read: vintage) feature here...
- Brightly colored plastic beads on the spokes.
- The stamped tin(?) basket that looks substantial but can't really hold anything heavier than a sweatshirt.
- The vinyl couch of a saddle. With springs!
- Metal fenders, all class for sure.
Note the clips to hold the cable housing to the frame tubes. And yes, that housing does run end-to-end for damn sure. Back then it was just another way to cheap out the product, now companies try to tell you it's to increase performance and keep out the gunk.
Nothing could be more classic than the bandana wrapped around the handlebar or holding up the kickstand. And somehow purple seems an appropriate color.
Back when this bike was sold by Sears and Roebuck it was billed as affordable. And I guess the name was supposed to inspire 'freedom' and 'wind in your hair' and all that I-am-an-American-who-eats-freedom-fries-and-no-one-can-tell-me-what-to-do stuff. When I worked in bike shops about many years ago we called this kind of bike disposable. Invariably it would cost more to properly fix than it would to buy a new one. Hell, half the time fixing it was not even an option. Now I'm seeing them advertised for over two hundred dollars! Ouch.

A farmer in Nebraska was just trying to transfer some corn from one place to another when he accidentally stepped into a hole, the hole happened to be a grain auger.
Kurtis Kaser, 63, knew he had to act quick as his leg was getting pulled into the machine.
"I didn't know what to do and I didn't know how long I would keep my consciousness either, I about gave up but then I remembered I had my pocket knife," Kaser told CNN.
Kaser was at the farm by himself in Pender, located near the Iowa border, about three and a half weeks ago, when he had to make the split decision to cut off his leg.
"I didn't have a phone on me, I didn't know where it had gone, so I just started cutting with the knife," he said. "I knew I was done cutting because I felt a funny feeling, maybe it was a tendon I cut."
The farmer said shortly after, he proceeded to crawl towards his house using his elbows so he could reach a phone to call for help.
"I stopped for a little bit but I didn't want to stop for long in case I passed out, there was no way for me to get help, everyone was gone at the time, I just did what I had to do and they (first responders) got me in a helicopter," he said.
He was rushed to Bryan Medical Center and stayed there for about a week before transferring to Madonna Rehabilitation Center, where he underwent physical therapy.
"I was 45 minutes away from home when this happened, they were flying him away as I was arriving and I didn't get to see how he was doing before that," his wife, Lori, told CNN. "I am just glad he's here with us."
This isn't the first time Kaser has had a scare like this on the farm.
"These accidents happen all the time, when I was a sixth grader my other leg got stuck in a tractor, only my skin suffered that time," he said. "We're kind of used to this around here."
Kaser said he doesn't remember how long the whole ordeal lasted but when he returned home from the rehabilitation hospital on Friday, he was shocked to realize how far he had crawled.
"Everyone asks me why I am so calm about the situation and the truth is, when I was in Madonna (the rehabilitation hospital), I saw so many people who will probably never be able to walk again and I know I will be able to walk mildly normal, I'm fortunate."
His wife said they are now adjusting to the new lifestyle and within time they know everything will be back to normal. Once his leg is finished healing, he'll be fitted for a prosthetic and Kaser told CNN affiliate KETV that he'll be back to farming in no time.

Will Murray Is Wrong -- Right?
Early in the, Howard took Will to task for using the word, "broadcasted," in the pre-interview notes he wrote on Al Roker: "You have the highest IQ right?"
Robin thought Will was right: "It's a verb the way he's using it."
So Howard backed down: "Maybe you're right--when I read it last night, it seemed really bizarre...you're right, I'm wrong."
Will knew to apologize anyway: "I'm sorry." Howard laughed: "Don't be sorry."

HOW Art Museum presents first exhibition in 2015 – "Moving Studios". The exhibition seeks to analyze the reasons of massive popularity of residency programs, as well as to see how artists at the forefront of their generation are responding to a highly globalized world.
Having been living and working in artist residencies in Shanghai or Seoul, nine artists from eight different countries participate in the exhibition – Alexandre & John Gailla, Alyona Larionova, Anthony & Phillip Reed, Linda Havenstein, Marc Oosting, Nika Oblak & Primoz Novak, Ralph Kistler, Sandro del Pistoia, and Sofia Ortiz. They experienced the communal atmosphere of the residency, and it would be interesting to know their interpretations and ideas on the issue of assimilation and dissimilation in different cultures. Trough a wide array of works, this exhibition will explore whether artist-in residence programs can provide a truly immersion into another culture and create a positive interaction between local community and foreign guests. Members of art community, like the world itself, are largely 'globalized'. Artists, curators, critics, and managers travel and spend most of their time exploring cultural and economic realities of those cities where art flourishes: New York, Miami, Hong Kong, Shanghai, Seoul, Tokyo, etc. 'Nomadism' and expanding network are distinguishing characteristics of contemporary art life. French art critic and writer Nicolas Bourriaud states that "contemporary culture can no longer be seen as a single totality, but as an interrelated network – described as an archipelago. It is both unified and separated: an example of the relationship between one and many. Islands of thoughts and forms are clustered together, yet they may not have a total 'continental' definition." "Islands of thoughts and forms clustered together" – this depiction expresses exactly the essence of residency programs whose aim is to gather creative people and involve them in thinking process and discourse formation. As for artist-in-residence programs, they similarly attempt to revitalize international exchanges and enable artists to move from their usual environment to new places. They allow exploring life in different counties, meeting new people, establishing relationship within another community. Moreover, they focus on incubating emerging artists and encouraging their innovation and experiment in art. The exhibition explores this idea of portable studios and art inspired during relocation.
"Moving Studios" lasts until June 6th, 2015.

Mother's anger as Limerick man who murdered four is up for parole review
Abina Ring speaks out after her daughter's murderer is up for parole after seven years.
A WOMAN whose daughter and two grandchildren were killed in a shocking quadruple murder case in Limerick has expressed her outrage after learning her daughter's killer is up for a parole hearing after serving seven years of his sentence.
Abina Ring, whose daughter Sarah Hines was murdered with her children, five-month-old Amy and three-year-old Reece by her former partner John Geary, 42, of Meadow Court, Newcastle West in November 2010, has received a letter notifying her that his is set to have his first parole board review in the near future.
Mr Geary, who also murdered Ms Hynes' friend Alicia Brough, was sentenced to four concurrent life sentences by Mr Justice Paul Carney on July 8, 2013, after pleading guilty to all four murders.
"It was like dragging it out and going over it all again, just as I was starting to get my head together," Ms Ring, who suffered a heart attack soon after finding out the details of the case, said.
"I got the letter just before Christmas, I didn't think he would be entitled to parole for at least 14 years, that's what I got told," she said.
"I was pulling my hair out, I couldn't believe it, couldn't believe that they would even think about it.
Ms Ring said she believes it is important the public know what kind of "monster" Geary is, in case he ever gets his freedom.
Using a screwdriver and a number of knives Geary inflicted 21 wounds on his ex-partner's face, neck, and chest.
Geary also inflicted nine stab wounds on his baby daughter Amy, using a screwdriver and a further 15 wounds on three-year-old Reece.
A pathologist found Sarah Hines had struggled to defend herself but would have collapsed once she sustained knife wounds to her heart and lungs. The postmortem findings suggested Amy Hines and Reece Hines died rapidly.
The family is now terrified Mr Geary will be released on a technicality and the letter itself has caused the family heartache, she added.
"It's going to take a lot more than seven years to feel that Sarah Reece and Amy got any justice."
"They're the ones who are not breathing, who are not getting justice, and he might be in prison, but he's still living," she said.
The grieving mother said that her family have never fully come to terms with what has happened, and says receiving this news has reopened old wounds.
"'Till the day I die, I'm going to fight to make sure a monster like that never gets out of prison and does to another family what he did to mine," Ms Ring said.

- Address:1/F No. 3 Building of Juzhen International, No.515, Yuhangtang Road
Letan specializes in dishes from the southern parts of the United States and is run by an overseas returnee wanting to share his authentic American food culture with the people of Hangzhou city. This American style restaurant with its high ceilings and crisp layout also has a number of separate zones for watching sport and drinking beer.

Letan is not only known for its flavors but for its portions too - take the BBQ platter for example, on which various types of grilled meat are piled high, cooked by different methods and accompanied by a variety of sauces.
Home-made Sausages, another specialty, are a must-order for every customer as are the fire-cured pork ribs which, woody in fragrance, are both spicy and tender to taste.

One advantage of SMS marketing is that you can make a meaningful impression on your broadcast list every single day.
One disadvantage of mobile marketing is that you have to come up with a meaningful impression every single day.
This can be a challenge for professional copywriters – people whose job it is to come up with effective ad copy. As a small business owner, you have many other things on your plate. Your passion for your business – and your need to pay the bills – will help you come up with some compelling copy. But sometimes you need more inspiration. When that happens, you can look to these resources for help.
The Calendar
You'd be amazed at the sheer number of commemorative days, weeks and months that exist. You can even add local community celebrations and anniversaries for your business to the list – all of which can serve as springboards for your daily marketing message.
The News
Paging through your local newspaper can yield dozens of ideas, events, and facts that can turn into a relevant marketing message. A new business in town could turn into a coupon for people who show you a receipt from a visit. A local hero could inspire a new menu item. Whatever you imagine, spread it via your mobile campaign.
Your Customers
Listen to your customers when they tell you what they like most about your shop, your people, your product and you. Use your mobile marketing to bring those to the front of their minds at every opportunity. Messages with an inherent call to action help you listen to customers even when they're not in the store.
Your Employees
When in doubt, ask an employee. They're "in the trenches," talking with customers in a way you might not be. Some of them have also been thinking about your mobile message, and have been waiting for you to ask their opinion. Their suggestions can help you get started and keep you going.
Your Competition
If your competition dropped a marketing message you wish you'd thought of, there's no reason not to use it anyway. Improving on it, tweaking it, making it your own, is a fair and effective marketing technique. Also, don't limit yourself to your direct competition – "borrow" from any message that catches your eye.
Your History
Keep track of the kind of response you get from your mobile messages. The best performing pieces should be in your mind as you design every broadcast – but you can also repeat particularly popular pieces.

Budleigh men victorious in Captains Invitation
PUBLISHED: 10:16 29 March 2018
There was a welcome result for the Budleigh men in the annual match against the ladies at Cricket Field Lane on Sunday, as they took the spoils in the Captains Invitation match, writes David Roberts.
The last two matches had seen the ladies walking tall with consecutive wins so this result was well overdue!
In saying that, the rinks were shared, but the men won overall by eleven shots at 32-21.
The ladies of Eileen Burston, Lilian Grainger, Di Lowe, Ann Vincent and Mo Bond were taken to task by the men of Tony Lim, Peter Burch, Don Huish, Bill Barber and Gerry Roberts as the men took an early advantage racing to a 16-3 lead after eight ends and never looked back!
On the other rink, it was a much closer affair with the ladies of Melissa Camp, Hilary Medley, Joan Cowing and Joan Shaw keeping their noses in front to run out winners 12-9 against Gerard McCarthy, Mike Shaw, Leighton Burston and Brian Evans. Thanks are due to Ann Vincent and Mo Bond for providing a sumptuous cream tea to end a very enjoyable afternoon.
A vice president's match earlier in the week held at home against Honiton saw a convincing win for the men of Peter Burch, Bob Gooch, Gerry Roberts and skip Leighton Burston, as they took total control of their rink winning 30-6. After the two successes for the men, fortunes were reversed as they took on South Hams in the last of the season's Interclub matches, losing overall by 95 shots to 52. Congratulations, to Richard Cooper, Peter Nicholls, Peter Burch and skip Gerry Roberts as they won away from home fighting off a late comeback from their opponents to register the only rink to win 19-17. In the Tuesday Triples League there were wins for Eileen Burston, Reg and Margaret Ringsell for team Beech and for Margaret Avery, Mike Clark and Lilian Grainger for team Willow. This week sees the last of the matches with everything to play for in this very popular competition well organised by John Dill. The indoor competitions are now well advanced and the men's competitions are now at the semi-final stages. Brian Crook, Leighton Burston, John Dill and David Roberts are through to the last four in the two wood.In the 106 competition, Don Huish is already through to the final after just pipping Leighton Burston and will play either John Dill or David Roberts. In the four wood competition, Paul Griffin will play John Dill and Gerry Roberts will play the winner of the match between Leighton Burston and Peter Burch. The Budleigh finals weekend is scheduled for April 14 and 15.
Over the next week the Les Thwaite final will be contested by the Exonia Eagles and Maderia Robins whilst the Budleigh Buzzards play the last of the Evening League matches against the Maderia Robins, who are chasing down third position.
The ladies entertain Honiton in a friendly match at home as the club prepares for the forthcoming outdoor season, one that is scheduled to commence on Saturday, April 21.

Freight shipping from Wisconsin to Alaska is easier than ever with FreightCenter. Our simple quoting and booking process will enable you to get instant freight rates from all the top shipping companies and start booking your freight shipments in a few short minutes. FreightCenter makes it affordable to ship freight from Wisconsin to Alaska by LTL, Truckload, Rail, or Intermodal with our guaranteed competitive freight rates.
Wisconsin is a Midwestern state located on the Great Lakes. A large part of the state is made up of flat plains, and agriculture is an important part of the economy. Dairy products are an especially important part of Wisconsin's economy and culture. Wisconsin has a low population density and therefore a low volume of goods moving through the state. Wisconsin freight shipping can be found for the best prices in the more industrial areas. More remote areas will have higher prices, and freight shipping may be hard to find. Wisconsin freight also moves by rail and by water over the great lakes, but demand for shipping is fairly low. LTL freight is least expensive in the industrial centers.
Alaska is a large and relatively remote area that may require some unique freight shipping solutions. Alaska is separated from the rest of the continental United States by approximately 500 miles, and some of the roads typically used by freight trucks are seasonal. Several regions are not accessible by road, making Alaska shipping by air and sea important options to consider. Although shipping out of the state is normally associated with lower prices than shipping into the state, LTL prices are often higher than air shipping for the same weight. Low prices on Alaska freight shipping into the western regions can be difficult to find.

Relative Thinking Theory
28 Pages Posted: 11 Apr 2005
Date Written: February 2005
The article presents a theory that I denote "Relative Thinking Theory," which claims that people consider relative differences and not only absolute differences when making various economics decisions, even in those cases where the rational model dictates that people should consider only absolute differences. The article reviews experimental evidence for this behavior, summarizing briefly several experiments I conducted, as well as some earlier related literature. It then discusses how we can think about relative thinking and formalize this behavior. Later, the article addresses several related questions: why do people exhibit relative thinking, whether it is beneficial to do so, and whether experience and education can change relative thinking. Finally, the article explains why firms seem to respond to relative thinking of consumers, and raises additional implications of relative thinking for economics and management.
Keywords: Relative thinking, relative differences, behavioral decision making, behavioral economics, psychological economics, percentages, ratios, absolute differences, Weber's law
