San Francisco Cable Car History
The San Francisco Cable Car system is the last working system of its kind worldwide. The cable cars move by gripping a below ground cable television that remains in continuous movement, powered by an engine situated in a central giant. The "grasp male" on board the cable car is accountable for operating the grip as well as ringing the bell. The car also has a conductor or assistant that takes the price and helps keep an eye on every little thing for the grasp guy.
The cable car system in San Francisco was built in 1873. Regional legend has it that Andrew Hallidie was influenced to develop the cable car system when he saw some wagon horses fall to their deaths due to the steepness of Jackson Street. By 1890 it had almost 2 lots lines running to obtain people all over the city. This system functioned as a design for similar systems in cities all over the world. Nonetheless, the system was short lived since electric trams were created towards the end of the nineteenth century as well as gave a more effective and cost-efficient system of getting around. The final nail in the initial cable car system was the 1906 quake, which damaged so much of the city's existing facilities.
By 1912 just 3 cable car lines continued to be (and those only because they can rise the steepest roads that the electric streetcars could not navigate). By the 1920s there were likewise buses as options to these lines. However, some individuals did wish to maintain the historic cable cars running as well as there was a great deal of dispute about how to do so. Adjustments have been made to the lines in time yet today the three main lines do continue to run. Learn more on cable car history right here!
Enjoyable Reality: The cable cars are the only mobile National Monolith on the planet, as well as are provided on the National Register of Historic Places.

Lynette Lochausen joined the Steamboat Springs Writer's Group in 2018. Raised in Texas, she completed her undergraduate degree in French and Home Economics there, married and had three daughters. Years later, she obtained a graduate degree in school counseling in Florida and moved to Steamboat Springs with three teenagers in 1986. Four unique seasons with great outdoor adventures available in each appealed to them, as did the excellent schools.
Lynette is now retired as a k-12 school counselor and part-time college tutor. With her daughters educated and independent, she and her second husband of 25 years enjoy travel, volunteering, and evenings reading by the fire.
In her career, her previous writing experience consisted of many letters to college admissions on behalf of students and a few righteous letters to the editor of the local paper. Now, however, she writes for personal creative pleasure with hopes of leaving family members a group of stories and memories by which to remember some very good times.

A Saturday with minimal activity offered little hope that the congressional deficit supercommittee would be able to stave off an embarrassing failure to accomplish its assigned task.
The 12-member panel has just five days to approve at least $1.2 trillion in budget savings, but the flurry of meetings and "shuttle diplomacy" among members of the committee slowed to a near-stop on Saturday. No face-to-face meetings were held, aides in both parties said, while Republican members convened a single conference call in the morning.
One Democratic member who has been among the most active in the talks, Rep. Chris Van Hollen (Md.), attended a Thanksgiving parade in his district and planned to go to a high school soccer game, an aide said.
The lack of outward urgency suggested that members in both parties were resigning themselves to the likelihood that the panel will not be able to reach an agreement by its Nov. 23 deadline. The committee would by law need to deliver proposals to the Congressional Budget Office by Monday night in order for a vote to occur on Wednesday.
With hopes dim for a broad deal that meets or exceeds the $1.2 trillion charge, Republicans this week made a $643 billion fallback offer that would lock in agreed-upon spending cuts and soften the across-the-board reductions that would be triggered if the committee fails. Democrats rejected the bid, however, calling it "laughable."
A spokesman for Speaker John BoehnerJohn Andrew BoehnerTrump appears alongside Ocasio-Cortez on Time 100 list Resurrecting deliberative bodies Trump's decision on health care law puts spotlight on Mulvaney MORE (R-Ohio) said he remained in "close contact" with GOP members of the panel throughout the day.
Rumors swirling Washington hinted the panel might throw in the towel Saturday, but Republican and Democratic aides said they did not expect the committee to issue a statement announcing it could not reach an agreement. With several members scheduled to appear on talk shows Sunday morning, an aide suggested both sides were laying low until those programs aired. The shows could devolve into an all-out blame fest.
Both parties got a head start on Saturday. The author of a main GOP supercommittee proposal, Sen. Pat Toomey (Pa.), defended the offer in the Republican weekly address, citing "intense Democratic opposition" as an obstacle to a far-reaching deficit accord.
"Surely our Democratic colleagues can agree that a bloated federal government that has grown by about 25 percent in the last few years can tighten its belt by 2 percent over the next 10 years," Toomey said.
Hours later, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee sent out a fund-raising missive from House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) that sought to shift the blame to the GOP.
"The clock is ticking toward the Super Committee's November 23rd deadline," Pelosi wrote. "Republicans are insisting on eliminating the Medicare guarantee while cutting taxes for millionaires and refusing to include a robust jobs plan. That's not fair."
A Democratic aide familiar with the talks added: "Democrats have put serious and painful compromises on the table when it comes to spending and entitlements, and the single issue holding up movement right now is Republicans' insistence on protecting the wealthiest Americans from paying their fair share. Democrats remain hopeful that Republicans will move off of their hard-line position and come back to the table with the kind of real revenue that could lead to a balanced and bipartisan deal."

Data Collection For Email Marketing
Any organisation needs a customer database. Even if you are the owner of a small coffee shop and remember all your customers just by seeing their faces that's already a data collection. But larger the business the more responsibly you should work on a customer database.
Existing consumers are the most valuable assets that are by many underestimated. Sit down and do a statistical calculation and try to count, how much income does your current customers brings you? If you are not the owner of a funeral service company, soon you will realize that more than a half of your incomes brings customers that shopped or used your services more than once.
By investing huge amount of money on expensive advertising business owners can forget that they already have constant consumers that requires stable communication in the first place. In average new customer will cost 5-7 times more, than retention of existing, and how much time and energy it takes?
Email marketing is one of the cheapest and most comfortable way to connect your customers. Mailing isn't dependable on external factors, emails are delivered in the matters of minutes and on the set time. What is more important Email is a personal channel of communication. The 'message' is send to a particular person and it will be red only by him! Can you send a personal 'message' by TV ad? So that no Other could see it?
However not all emails will work the same well…. Only with the correct work with mailing list and segmentation you will be able to increase not only sells but also a customer loyalty.
Before deepening down in to segmentation, first of all you need data!
Few generally unexpansive ways of Data Collection for your Email Marketing Campaign:
- Point of Sale
Works well with brick-and-mortar locations. If you have a retail location, you can collect emails when customers purchase or visit the store. Employee training and in-store signage promoting your program can effectively support this effort.
- Web site
Optimize each page for data capture to increase the number of sign ups. Provide a preview of what your email communications might look like so subscribers can more easily see the value.
- Social Media
Add a sign-up form to your Facebook/Twitter page, or include a link to your hosted opt-in form and write a status to your fans/follower every now and again, asking them to join your email list. Also you can run a ''share and sign in'' competition on Facebook, Twitter or Pinterest by offering a prize to a random winner.
- Collect business cards and add emails from them
Every time you get a business card, add it to your mailing list.
- Advertise On Everything You Print
Whether it's your business card, a brown paper bag or a receipt, a physical reminder of your website could be the push for someone to visit your site and fill out your web form.
- Offer!
Nothing is more inviting to a potential customer than a free product or a glance at a service that they don't have.
If a customer had subscribed to your newsletter, it doesn't mean that it will exactly match his interests. Some companies do not consider the fact that needs and interests of their customers can vary. If you are selling sports clothing and want to deliver information about the updates, ask yourself whether your male customers are interested in your new line for women? Or does the teenager want to know more about products for kids?
Segmentation is the process of dividing your audience into groups according to a common characteristics and needs.
4 Basic Ways of Email Marketing Segmentation:
1. Geographic segmentation
Depending on the customer's location, you can create your email so as to provide the appropriate product / service at the right time and in a format convenient for him. Roughly speaking, the inhabitants of the far north are unlikely to need the beach flip-flops, and southerners – boots. If your company works on international level It is logical to assume that communication with customers should be in a different language.
Geographic variables such as:
- Regions
- Climate
- Population Density
- Population growth rate
- City size
2. Demographic Segmentation
Demographic segmentation always plays a big role in a segmentation. Market is divided into small segments based on demographic variables like:
- Age
- Gender
- Income
- Occupation
- Education
- Social Class
- Generation
- Family size
- Family life cycle
- Home Ownership
- Religion
- Ethnic group/Race
- Nationality
3. Psychographic Segmentation
Division of a market on basis of consumers lifestyle and personality. It gives a clearer picture of customers needs, wants, hobbies and buying behavior.
Psychographic variables include:
- Interests
- Opinions
- Personality
- Self Image
- Activities
- Values
- Attitudes
4. Behavioral Segmentation
The complexity of such a distribution is a need of a proper analytical work. Behavioral segmentation allows you to provide the most relevant information and avoid a repetitive emails. For example, if your customer had already tried one of your product, you do not ask them that again. You need to know enough about your customer behavior on the site and the degree of familiarity with the offered services / products.
Behavioral variables include:
- Usage Rate
- Product benefits
- Brand Loyalty
- Price Consciousness
- Occasions
- User Status
Start your segmentation gradually. Look at the people in your audience, and pay attention to whether there is an exceptional or a natural differences between them. Even a slight division can improve the results of your email campaign.

The roofing system is easily the most essential component of a manufactured home's structure. Single and double-wide home roofs endure snowfall, rainfall, heat, hail storms, ice, trees, wind storms, hurricanes. twisters, and let us not over look pests. Your roof doesn't only offer protection to the structure below. It also provides a safe house for your loved ones, which is the roofs most important function. Mobile homes can be equipped with a few different types of roofing material. Most mobile home roofs will be built with asphalt shingles or metal. Asphalt shingles are the best type of roof material to use when the home has a high slope. This is also known as a high slope roof. Most mobile home roofing systems in the past were made with flat roofs or low slope roofs. Today homeowners are opting to go with roofs with a steeper incline for numerous reasons. Flat roofs do not drain water away from the house like high slope roofs. Flat roofs also have a shorter life cycle for this reason. Rain has the potential to pool up on a flat roof. This can lead to roof leaks and also accelerate the need for a roof over. There is also cosmetic reasons to go with a high slope roof. This type of roof will give your mobile home a more modern look while still providing exceptional protection for the rest of the house. Often times your roof is the culprit when it comes to your house not being energy efficient. A house that is not properly insulated will cost you a lot more in heating oil, electricity, and energy bills. This starts with the roof. Heat rises to the top. If your roof is not insulated, you will always find yourself raising the temperature in your house to keep it warm. Most mobile home roofs are insulated with fiberglass or spray foam. Here are some things to keep in mind when it comes to making decisions about your mobile home roof.
Before you go for a total roof over, you need to check to see its possible to repair your mobile home roof. Usually membrane roofs like TPO and EPDM may be repaired. Most mobile home roofs in The United States are designed with a metal or rubber roof. We will begin by discussing metal roofs first. When roofers refer to metal roofs, they usually are referring to using aluminum. Aluminum is a popular building material because of its versatility. It can accommodate roofs of high and low slopes. Aluminum is light-weight and very resilient. Most standing seam roof structures are constructed out of aluminum. Aluminum roofs usually carry long manufacturer's warranties. They are easy for a contractor to install and require little servicing. When you are re-roofing your mobile home, you can also install insulation at places that need it. If you are installing a metal roof over your existing roof, it is common practice for roofing contractors to add insulation in between your original and new roof. This saves money down the road, because the new insulation will help prevent drafts and help you maintain the temperature in your home. Adding insulation to your metal or asphalt roof is also important to reduce ice damming. Ice damming is when layers of ice form in the gap between your gutter system and your roofing shingles. Ice damming results in water accumulating on your roof; because of the waters failure to drain efficiently in to your gutters.
With new technology advances, it is encouraged to avoid using flat roofs on your manufactured home. Flat mobile home roofs are synonomous with roof leaks. They are more susceptible to having problems. One of the problems with flat roofs is inadequate water drainage. Rain has the tendency to gather and pool on flat surface areas. On a roofing surface like shingles or metal, this can result in a roofs early degeneration. Flat roofs also have a larger surface area that is exposed to the sun's heat. That is why you should opt for a component like TPO that has strong reflective properties. Rubber asphalt roofs also tend to blister as a result of the heat. This can lead to roof leaks and ripples in the roofs exterior lining requiring repair.
Most newer mobile homes are designed with pitched roof systems. The premier roof components of choice today are metal or asphalt roof shingles. Shingles have become the roof replacement material of choice for most home applications. Shingles are relatively easy to install, they can last 25-30 years, and they add an aesthetic beauty to your home improvement project. A shingle roof can have more than just one layer. Your home may not require a whole new roof over. If you presently have asphalt shingles. It is feasible to add an additional layer of shingles to your original roof. This is commonly done to repair leaks when asphalt roofs near the end of their useful life. TPO is one more option. TPO is a roofing membrane that is used on both high and low slope roofs. It is reflective, reasonably priced, and easy for a roofer to install. It is commonly referred to as rubber roofing. Usually you will have two roofing options. Either repair your roof or replace your roof. The installation costs of the roof will vary depending upon materials used, the roofing contractor, and the style and size of the roof. Although roof cost is important, it is not advisable to cut costs here. A roof improperly installed can lead to a constant demand for roof repair. This is why we do not recommend rolled rubber roofing for your mobile home.
Manufactured home rubber roof coatings are an easy way to keep your mobile home cool. This process entails adding a elastomeric coating to your roof to reflect the suns heat. This will help you with air conditioning costs. This also helps keep your roof from suffering from roof leaks because this material will adhere to the existing roof surface to keep water out. When this liquid rubber is applied around protrusions like manufactured home roof vents and chimneys, it will perform like flashing. It is customarily put on with a brush. This is a necessity for mobile homes with flat roofs. Most roof coatings are asphalt based. An additional roof coating alternative is latex. Latex has shown to be a more reflective coating roof material than asphalt. Latex will require the use of a primer prior to applying the actual coating. It is advised that you reapply a roof coating to your flat roof every couple of years to preserve its integrity.
Any type of roofing system that you select for your manufactured home will need a regular maintenance plan. You need to talk to your roofing company and learn about your roofing choices. It is not suggested to do a roof over yourself. Whether or not you should use asphalt shingles, rubber roofing, or metal roofing on your manufactured home will most likely depend on your surrounding climate conditions, the quality and experience of your roofer, and how much money you are looking to spend. This resource should be able to give you some assistance.

2016 to be Todd Blackadder's final year as BNZ Crusaders Head Coach
- Details
- Published: 24 November 2015
The BNZ Crusaders have today announced that Todd Blackadder will step aside as Head Coach at the conclusion of the 2016 Investec Super Rugby season.
"This will be my 8th season coaching the Crusaders, and every minute in the role has been a privilege. But moving on at the end of the 2016 season is the right thing for me and the right thing for the team," Blackadder said. "I have been so fortunate to be able to do my dream job for all of these years, but 8 years is a relatively long time in coaching and I feel that the time is right for someone else to take the reins and lead the team in their own direction in the future.
"One of the important things to come out of our 2015 season review is that distractions were a problem for us last season, so that is why I was keen to make my intentions clear before the season begins to avoid my future becoming a distraction for the team during the 2016 season," Blackadder said.
Blackadder took over from Robbie Deans as Head Coach of the Crusaders in 2009. He has coached the team to four Super Rugby semi-finals and two finals so far, and the final against the Waratahs in 2014 marked his 100th game as Crusaders Head Coach.
BNZ Crusaders CEO Hamish Riach said Blackadder had been a huge part of the fabric of the Crusaders since playing in the inaugural team in 1996.
"Toddy is one of the original Crusaders and he has shown a consummate commitment to this team since day one. His leadership qualities were immediately apparent as a player so it was no surprise that he went on to captain the Crusaders team for five seasons, as well as becoming the Canterbury and All Blacks captain. It also seemed almost inevitable that he would return as a coach one day, as he did in 2009.
"He has a kind of cult hero status around these parts, and that's because of the incredible passion and loyalty that he has always displayed for this team. He has given everything to the BNZ Crusaders and we have been incredibly lucky to have him, as both a player and a coach," Mr Riach said. "While his tenure as Head Coach will finish at the end of this season, I know that Toddy will continue to have plenty to offer this team beyond that. For now, we will enjoy having him lead the 2016 team and hope it is a memorable season for him and all of us."
Blackadder said he has no firm plans yet beyond the 2016 season and is in no hurry to make any.
"I am thinking no further ahead than the season that is in front of me. I am incredibly excited about the 2016 season and what happens beyond that is immaterial right now. There have been some big changes in the BNZ Crusaders with some significant players moving on and a number of new, younger players coming into the mix, and I think that signals some really exciting times ahead.
"I want the 2016 BNZ Crusaders team to be the best yet. My goals for this season are to have this team playing for each other, to improve our home record, and to have this community feeling proud of their team. I can't honestly say that we achieved that last year, so this is my last chance to get that right.
"I can't wait to work with this season's squad and my ultimate goal is to leave the team in good heart at the end of the season so that it can continue to be the proud and successful team it always has been."
An open and contestable process to appoint a new BNZ Crusaders Head Coach will begin at the conclusion of the 2016 Investec Super Rugby season.

Overall, residential insured losses for all the fires totaled just over $3.1 billion as well as commercial losses represented nearly $137 million. Auto losses exceeded $28 million as well as farm/agriculture losses through the fires exceeded $4.5 million, with most of the item in Sonoma County although also some losses in Napa County.
The wine country wildfires damaged or destroyed more than 14,700 homes, 728 businesses, as well as more than 3,0 private cars, commercial vehicles, farm equipment as well as watercraft.
At least 43 people died as a result of the devastating fires, including a firefighter.
The series of wildfires, which started out the evening of Oct. 8, destroyed entire neighborhoods inside the city of Santa Rosa. At least 5 percent of the housing stock in Sonoma County was destroyed inside the fires.
The residential property insured losses in Sonoma County exceeded $2.6 billion, according to the state insurance commissioner. of which number will be likely to up as insurance adjusters process more claims for the hard-hit area.
As of Tuesday, all of the original wine country wildfires were 99 percent contained. The fires remain under investigation by Cal Fire. More than two dozen wineries were damaged or destroyed inside the recent fires.
In Napa County, the residential property insured losses totaled more than $266 million as well as commercial losses exceeded $3.2 million. Mendocino County residential losses exceeded $115 million as well as Yuba as well as Lake counties had more than $48.5 million each in residential losses.
"These numbers are based on actual claims filed with the insurance companies," Jones said. "They are not an estimate, they are actual claimed insured losses."
Added Jones, "Of course in a disaster of of which magnitude, there are also uninsured losses — infrastructure, schools, community centers, parks … as well as to those who did not have insurance or were under-insured."
Jones said he will be concerned of which the fires could represent a brand new normal. "We've seen greater frequency, greater unpredictability as well as greater severity of fires recently," he said.
The state official said increasing dry conditions in parts of the state are contributing to the fire risk. He also blamed the changing global climate.
"The wildfires in Santa Rosa destroyed neighborhoods of which had been previously understood to have be at lower risk," he said. "of which fire jumped over a four-lane highway, which the item was thought might function as a fire break. of which didn't occur."
The state official said the policy change maybe needed since California continues "to develop in areas where there's significant change of fire. We continue not to have adequate local fire protection resources to fight those fires as well as we shift those costs onto Cal Fire as well as the state."

Title: Fluctuation Relation beyond Linear Response Theory
The Fluctuation Relation (FR) is an asymptotic result on the distribution of certain observables averaged over time intervals $\t$ as $\t\to\io$ and it is a generalization of the fluctuation--dissipation theorem to far from equilibrium systems in a steady state which reduces to the usual Green--Kubo (GK) relation in the limit of small external non conservative forces. FR is a theorem for smooth uniformly hyperbolic systems, and it is assumed to be true in all dissipative ``chaotic enough'' systems in a steady state. In this paper we develop a theory of finite time corrections to FR, needed to compare the asymptotic prediction of FR with numerical observations, which necessarily involve fluctuations of observables averaged over finite time intervals $\t$. We perform a numerical test of FR in two cases in which non Gaussian fluctuations are observable while GK does not apply and we get a non trivial verification of FR that is {\it independent of} and {\it different from} linear response theory. Our results are compatible with the theory of finite time corrections to FR, while FR would be {\it observably violated}, well within the precision of our experiments, if such corrections were neglected.

N.b. Pickles and Potter has now closed its shop in Leeds, however, they now deliver and are operating online.
Having an independent sandwich shop in Leeds that offers excellent quality in terms of both food and service should be treasured and that is why I am unashamedly going to promote and rave about Pickles and Potter: an institution that benefits the Leeds food scene no end. So, apologies for the slightly biased review!
Located in a rather hidden away part of the Queens Arcade in Leeds, it nevertheless has an appealing exterior that fits in beautifully within the arcade's way of clinging to the past and all the positive aesthetic connotations that come with this traditional feel.
In fact, this is the case to such an extent that it proves Leeds can retain some of the majestic beauty that has been ruined by some of the more recent developments (e.g. Bridgewater Place!)
Once you have made your way inside (be warned you will be queuing to sit down if you are there around lunchtime) your choices are plentiful. That said, the real choice from my point of view is really only what kind of cheese to enjoy with the roast beef sandwich that simply equates to a flavour bomb in your mouth!
With so many awful restaurants overcooking beef and ruining the most tender of meat cuts this is a welcome change (only Weetons in Harrogate occasionally treat beef properly that I know of). The properly cooked beef makes the sandwich what it should be even before you throw in the crunch of the carrots, the spice of the chilli cheddar and the freshness of the rocket and tomato salad that in combination provide you with that lovely peppery taste that otherwise has to be dragged into the party – and far too often takes over.
With excellent vegetarian options available (and even a lovely vegan sandwich that is a real beauty) this is not just a place for meat fiends and there are lovely salads on offer for those who suffer from gluten intolerance.
If you choose to enjoy a lovely cup of tea (brewed on site) you can really watch the hours pass by as the tea and treats keep coming. Just watch the pennies as this is not Greggs or some other fast food place: you pay more and you get more as a result.
Next time you fancy that lunchtime treat – whether on the hoof or for a sit down lunch – there really is no better sandwich shop in the middle of Leeds.

The March Of Mobile Money
The Future of Lifestyle Management
No Comments | Write Review
₹ 399.00
Extent: 248 pages
The man behind India's telecom revolution brings us the future – and it's on our cellphones. Sometime in the early 1990s, as Sam Pitroda watched his wife write cheques for numerous bills, he came up with the revolutionary idea of a digital or mobile wallet – an electronic version of the leather wallet. Pitroda registered his first patent on the mobile wallet in 1994, and since then he and his colleague, Mehul Desai, have been traversing the world, taking this technology forward. Initially resistant to the idea of mobile money, the three stakeholders in mobile telephony – telecom companies, banks and merchants – are now realizing that it is crucial to their growth. All of them are now reinventing themselves for our mobile phones, and competing with each other to manage our lifestyles. For telecom companies, it is no longer about connectivity but about delivering personalized and secure services. For banks, it is no longer about deposits and lending but about the convergence of financial products and services; and for merchants, it is no longer about goods but goods bundled with services. For India, which has more mobile phone subscribers (over 470 million, with over ten million being added every month) than bank account holders, mobile money can be an engine for growth. It can also be a life-transforming technology for social good, empowering those at the bottom of the pyramid. Once again, India can show the way to the world.
SAM PITRODA is an internationally respected development thinker, telecom inventor and entrepreneur. He is credited with having laid the foundation for and ushering in India's technology and telecommunications revolution in the 1980s, when he headed six technology missions. He was the founder and first chairman of India's Telecom Commission, as also the chairman of India's National Knowledge Commission (2005-09). He is currently advisor to the prime minister of India on public information infrastructure and innovations.

William Madgett, mayor of Hastings and recognized as one of the prominent representatives of the republican
party in Nebraska, has been well known in the business circles of his city for a number of years as a prominent
real estate dealer, handling important property interests. He is a native son of New York, his birth having occurred
in Broome county on the 9th of July, 1878, his parents being James and Mary Madgett, of whom mention is made elsewhere
in this work. During his youthful days he was brought to the west and he supplemented his district school training
by further study in the schools of Hastings. He began earning his living by selling papers on the streets and,
like many another self made man, has risen to prominence, becoming a leader of public thought and action. When
his school days were over he became identified with banking interests and for nine years occupied the position
of accountant. He then went to Holstein, Nebraska, where he organized the Holstein Bank, which he conducted for
a brief period. He then returned to Hastings and opened a real estate office in connection with his brother. Since
that time he has continuously operated in the real estate field here, has become the owner of valuable property,
including one of the finet buildings in the city, and has negotiated many important realty transfers. His plans
are well formulated, his enterprise is unfaltering and his enthusiasm is contagious.
Mr. Madgett was married in 1899 to Miss Pauline E. Nance and they have a little daughter who bears the mother's
name. Their religious faith is that of the Episcopal church, while in fraternal relations Mr. Madgett is well known
as a Consistory Mason, a Mystic Shriner and a member of the Knights of Pythias. He has given his political allegiance
to the republican party since age conferred upon him the right of franchise and has taken a more and more active
part in politics as he has been aroused to the needs and demands of the hour. In 1915 he was elected mayor of Hastings
and is giving to the city a businesslike, progressive administration based upon his thorough knowledge of municipal
conditions and problems problems for which he finds a ready and correct solution. On account of friends urging
him to do so he has become a candidate for the republican nomination for governor. His position is never an equivocal
one. He stands loyally for a cause in which he believes and he advocates woman suffrage; conservation of the state's
natural resources, such as rivers, streams and lakes for water power and irrigation purposes; loan of state school
money on Nebraska farm mortgages; a more thorough and uniform system of public accounting, so the different offices
will have a check on each other; a commission to pass upon the constitutionality and validity of proposed bills
before they are enacted into law by the legislature; and a good roads law requiring more and better work done upon
our public highways and providing that convict labor and the proceeds shall be appropriated by the state for such
purposes. Mr. Madgett regards a public office as a public trust and his loyalty and progressiveness in the office
of mayor indicate the course which he would follow should he become the state's chief executive.

picture this…
well, i've been doing okay supporting local businesses. i've gone to a place called hong kong city garden for sushi…and let me tell you…yum, yum, yummy. best sushi around here by far. i've got my nails done twice since the last update. been to my favorite local ice cream place with my baby nephew. i went to a new restaurant (which I think I already wrote a little about) and and a new bar called the belmont. below are two picture from a restaurant/bar called rogers that my friend holly works at. she's always bugging me to come down, and because i am an awful friend, i always forget to stop by. but i finally did! and i had a great time 🙂
21 Jul
one more…

and here are more…
#39 work on making my own wine cork board:

a few of…
21 Jun
huge update. are you ready for this?
and then yesterday i went to another RI restaurant. J.D.'s, a "hole in the wall", aka a family restaurant…amy, sa and i got breakfast there the morning after the new kids on the block concert. i really enjoyed it there as well. the french toast was the best.
#twenty eight: i did a pretty good job supporting local artists. in haiti, i got a bunch of local artwork. statues and masks for the most part. i don't have any pictures now, so i will try to take some. in jamaica i got some nice jamaican coffee. i also went to watch a friend's band : dancing nancys at a bar in bristol one night.
#twenty nine: i guess for may i will chose 11th street diner as my independent business for the month of may because it was my favorite place. for the month of june, my independent business was that cute family restaurant J.D.'s.#thirty four: i've got quite a few pictures to add to my urban alphabet. some on the cruise and some in the countries we visited. and i think there are a few since i have been home. i'm going to put these pics in a separate post because this one is already going to be too long!
#thirty five: i also have more pictures to add to my 100 pictures project. i'm just going to include them on a separate post too.
#thirty nine: i am adding to my cork collection that i will use to make my cork frame. two of the new corks i got on my cruise when amy and i dined and had our favorite waiters, ivan and parag. the other is from friday night at the NKOTB concert.
#forty three: take a picture at least once every two weeks. gosh i have teaken quite a few so far. which is surprising, usually i take one of myself, but it was nice to have a few taken by others.
this picture was taken in mexico on june 4th. we were re-re-routed there. originally we were supposed to go to mexico, but we were re-routed to the bahamas. then we didn't find out about it being changed back to being mexico until we were on the cruise. so i was so excited because i really wanted to swim with the dolphins there…and i got to!
this one was after the dolphin swimming same day.
this picture also taken on june 4th. i love it because the whole time i was being photographed by the people at the dolphin cove, my eyes were closed or i was making crazy faces because i was paying so much attention to the dolphins…so in the moment that i paid no mind to them!
hmm, i like the casino. this was on june 5th the night before the cruise ended.
this picture was taken by The Bestie as i slept on the plane ride home!
#fifty seven: here is a picture of my pretty new passport! goal complete!
#sixty three: this week will be my 25th weekly entry. i'm totally loving that i am sticking firmly to this writing weekly schedule. its become more of a habit now. and i did a pretty good job writing in my journal during my cruise. at least for the first few days! haha.
#sixty six: yesterday i completed my 101st grace in small things entry. i am so excited about this. i cannot believe i have done so many of these entries. i feel like this is such a big accomplishment. i wonder what one complete year will feel like.
#sixty nine: my plan on vacation was to write letters to some of my friends on my cruise. i failed that one miserably! ha. didn't write any. but that is okay because i know i have one sobby letter to write to my lovely "wife" who is moving with her fiance Cornmuffin to the DC area. i have the feeling that this letter will get me started on writing a few more!
#seventy: i read another of my books which i purchased and never read (i think i have a total of 194 or something like that books to go) i read jodi picoult's new book which SHE AUTOGRAPHED WHEN I MET HER!
#seventy four: so the goal is to attend 20 more red sox games (before the end of the 1001 days…trust me i would like to attend many more than 20 in my life) i've already done two this year (yes, i know i owe you pictures from the second game i went to) i'm going to go down to baltimore at the end of july to travel and visit My Wife and Cornmuffin and i am definitely going to watch the sox play baltimore when i am there. holla! so that will be my third game of the year. i've got tickets for three more games at the end of the season too!
#eighty three: i know i finished this one already, but i added some vitamins to my daily routine. i worked on this goal by taking vitamin D which i am still taking. now i am taking vitamins C and E as well.
#eighty eight: still working hard on this one. the cruise definitely set me back much more than i thought, but i am going to think positive. i was doing an excellent job at this and i will continue to do an excellent job. there is no way i am going to let a negative attitude weigh me down in debt.
#ninety: still downloading all budget stuff into my spreadsheet.
so here goes
here is where i have eaten:
11th street dinner in south beach, miami. this place is absolute HEAVEN! if you go to miami then i recommend this place as a must see! everything tasted perfect and they had such a wide variety of food- and healthy food too. i actually went there twice in my 1.5 days of being there. got a turkey burger, fries and fruit on my first day and french toast, eggs and fruit on the second meal. yummy in my tummy.
30 Apr
howdy folks.
i've got an update for you. i'm doing big things!
#4- send flowers for no reason
i actually did not send anyone flowers since the last update. the reason i am writing about this is because i was actually going to send flowers to someone, but then i realized i had a REASON to send flowers to them. think about it. when sending flowers, there is always a reason. even if you only send them because you happen to be thinking about someone, that is still a reason!!! anyway, next time i think i will be a little easier on myself in regards to sending flowers "for no reason."
#6- donate 10 bags of clothing, etc to charity
well, i tried to get some spring cleaning done, so as of right now, i've got three large trash bags filled with clothing to bring to salvation army. i haven't brought them because i am thinking i might have one or two bags, and i figured it would be much easier just bringing them all together.
#9- i'm still working on organizing my bills.
not complete because i can only do a little at a time since i am so busy with school, but it is getting there!
#28- support local restaurants, businesses, etc.
well, i brought my niece to newport creamery to get some ice cream. she was having a sleep over at my house, so i did her makeup, let her play with my jewelry and then took her on a date. she loved it!
also, i went with my friends to a restaurant called paragon and a bar called spats. we've been to them before, but i am including them because they are still indep. restaurants.
i also got my nails done again, so i supported my nail tech. lol. expensive, expensive, expensive!
#35- i do not have any new pictures for the 100 pics project, but i do actually have a few ideas of pics i would like to take, so i will get started on that soon.
#43- i believe it is definitely time for my bimonthly pictures of myself.
this one above was taken at the red sox game on 4/17/09this one above was taken on 4/25/09 i was in a cleaning fit. def. a spring cleaning moment!
this one was taken today on 4/30/09 at work. thats why i look a mess!
#57- i've actually completed another item.
i applied for my passport. i actually had to pay double to expedite my passport, but whatever. i haven't gotten it in the mail yet, but my check has been cashed and i don't have any type of criminal record, so i think i will be A okay 🙂
#62- i tried but i failed!
i did do one of my five nablopomos i wanted to do, but i failed because i missed a day. oh well, i tried. 4 more to go. lets see if i can actually pull off a real completed one before this ends!
#63- i am doing an excellent keeping up with my weekly journal writings. totally getting into a groove, and i can really appreciate looking back and seeing how much i have written. i usually write in a journal for a month or two then a whole year will go by and so many major parts of my life have not been written about. so this weekly thing is keeping me on point!
#66- grace in small things is moving along well.
today i actually wrote the 50th gist out of 365 🙂
#74- i went to a red sox game! yay! it was my first game of the season and i loved every single second of it. fenway park is like a second home to me. i feel so good when i am there. and i am going again next week! my brother and i are bringing our mother and other brother to a game on may 8th for their birthday presents. (my mom's bday is actually the day of the game)
#83- i have completed my 30 straight days of vitamins challenge. so this goal is actually complete as well! i'm still taking the vitamin D until i go get my blood drawn and see the results in a few weeks. so we will see what comes of that!
#88- pay off my credit cards.
well this one is difficult. i actually didn't get the interest rate i wanted on the loan i applied for, so i decided to just forgo the loan and pay down my cards myself. it was a limited time offer from the bank, and i guess i didn't submit the application in time, so whatever! but since the last post, i have been doing great paying my loans off. i see a bright future ahead when it comes to getting out of debt. i think it will actually be sooner than i thought if i stick to my budget. the only thing that is screwing me is this cruise. because if you add up all the costs including excursions, miami overnight, booze, shopping, etc. i think i might spend between 1,500 and 2,000. my theory is that i'm not going on this cruise and pinching pennies. i want to go on all the excursions i possibly can…even if they are expensive. it isn't everyday i get to climb a 600ft waterfall or helmet dive with sting rays. so if i rack up a bill, then so be it. i'm only young once. i just need to stay dedicated to this budget and i'll have that paid off in no time. plus, i already have about 500 to go towards the trip, so i think i am in good shape 😉
#90- i am doing great keeping up with my spreadsheet for bills and my budget. it is really keeping me on track. so thanks fabulously broke! its working. y'all should check her out.
#91- pay off my car loan
i wanted to introduce this item into my posts, because i am in fact paying my car off every month in this project. i get it payment automatically deducted from y bank account so i'm on track with this item. i was thinking of paying it off quicker by making extra payments, but i won't do that until i eliminate my debt and save a large emergency fund. the interest rate is so low that i'm not worried about it at all.
and thats all folks! aren't you so glad you know all these random facts 😉

Wither "It's a Wonderful Life"?
'Tis the season, as they say. Lots of folks are elbowing their way into the stores to buy stuff for themselves, oh, and some gifts, too, on the side.
Welcome to the United States of Appliances, where "It's a wonderful life" = "Made in China."
People sure do seem to want to express their thanks to Jesus and their love for their relatives with gifts that use batteries or plug into the wall. And most of it made in China. I often wonder what the Chinese think of making all this stuff, putting it in boxes and sending it by the shipload to America.
"Dear, I love you so much, I got you this portable TV/DVD player for the bathroom. And the kids won't ever have to complain about having to look out the window of the Suburban again because I got them portable DVD players for the back seat of their very own so each can watch their own movie. We won't have them figeting or having to share anymore. This'll solve that. No more driving us crazy. This is going to be a great year."
Seeing the ads and the stuff stacked up in stores, you'd think Americans didn't have enough clothes to go a season or two without a few new armloads, and it seems most are currently absolutely starved for appliances. Me, I'm not feeling too appliance deprived. Don't think I'm needing a bathroom TV or a pantini oven or a heated towel rack or a cork screw that weighs five pounds and has over a dozen moving parts. Neither am I sure which kid has been nice enough to deserve another computer game so that they won't ever get bored with killing cartoon figures in the same old ways. Parents are falling for this stuff - joining the NEW and IMPROVED Mayhem-a-Month Club. And is it any wonder we're not making leaps and bounds with our childrens' civic virtues? It seems only a minority realize that almost every video or computer game actually punishes their children.
Sure, there is the beauty in giving beautiful and even lavish things, but the glut of lavishness, so much so that we seem enslaved to quantity over elegant simplicity, just spoils the show. Entertainment center envy is not a good reason to keep up with the Joneses. I'm sure some gift exchanges are lovely and graceful, but the glut of stuff is what we see.
A conscientious minority have been pointing out the absurdity of Christmas for decades. And yet a few of the seven deadly sins seem to run the Christmas charade more than do the humbler virtues. The last two months of the year become a capitalist orgy of sales and cash registers ringing angels into a heavily financed heaven and returns - don't forget the returns afterwards, some happy, some downright argumentative and even fraudulent - keep your receipts! Gotta do a spreadsheet on the holidays.
The movie "It's a Wonderful Life" remains a Christmas classic because it is entertaining nostalgia for what now seem like some obsolete values, such as whimsy, community and humility. "It's a Wonderful Life" is about a lot of things, but the crux of the story is an attempted suicide, let's not forget, and it's lessons are the same as those espoused in the lovely and even humbler "Charlie Brown Christmas," with it's tiny tree losing its needles at every jostle.
What would a truly Christian nation do for Christmas? Perhaps give loaves of bread, bottles of wine, spices, fresh fruit, food, firewood, notes, time, candles, a feast, simple things, small and graceful things, support for the poor, the sick, the despondent, the lonely, even continuing attention through January and the rest of the year.
That is what a Christian nation would do. That is what Linus reminds us. And if not through miracles or prayers or saviors then at least through a renewed appreciation for small and humble and simple things, like a little tree, some songs and company, a security blanket we don't want to let go of. This time of year, we see the barrage of ads for luxuries and appliances, and yet some of the rational recoil, suffering consumption backlash and not expecting a star to guide us. (December and early January are high times for suicide - for some the glimmering gaiety is a mirage.) Some of us may even feel outcast and downcast, wanting to clutch our security blankets, wishing not merely but profoundly and fervently, for the warmth of a fire, a manger, a home, and in that flickering, fleeting and fragile candlelight, in a face or the faces we adore, in the shadows and earthen tones and human forms, a gaze of love, a long and tender gaze that sticks with us and which we hold dear.

From there, vehicle drivers can update to the TRD Sporting Activity ($ 30,700), which boasts keyless accessibility with push-button beginning, an off-road suspension, Toyota's excellent Crawl Control system, an electronic securing rear differential, LED daytime running lights, 17-in alloy wheels, a cordless phone charger, an auto-dimming mirror, back vehicle parking sensors as well as a 7-in touchscreen including Toyota's Entune Application Suite and a navigating system. Crew taxicabs consist of a power back window. TRD Sport designs likewise come common with the V6.

Topping the variety is the Minimal ($ 35,900), which is only offered in staff taxicab (Double Cab) semblance. The Tacoma Limited sheds some of the TRD versions' off-road equipment, however includes 18-in alloy wheels, leather furniture, warmed pole positions, rear car parking sensors, a power sunroof, dual-zone climate control, an unseen area monitoring system as well as rear cross-traffic alert.

2007 Toyota Tacoma Review
Upgraded in 2005, the compact Tacoma pick-up continues for 2007 with only minor tweaks-- including larger, upgraded seats, two-toned scale panel, and chrome trim. Also, the optional Vehicle Security Control (VSC) system can currently be shut off by the motorist. The basic 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine produces 159 horse power while the optional 4.0-liter V-6 is available in at 236 horse power. Both engines appear downrated compared with the '06 versions, however the differences only reflect changes in the way horsepower is determined and also reported.
2006 Toyota Tacoma Review
Upgraded in 2015, the portable Tacoma pick-up continues for 2006 with only minor tweaks, that includes a recently standard tire-pressure screen. Eighteen version setups are readily available, based upon three cab types: Regular Cab, prolonged Accessibility Cab with dual rear access doors and tumble flat rear seats, and the four-door Dual Taxicab. The common powerplant is a 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine that utilizes Variable Shutoff Timing with intelligence (VVT-i) to produce 164 horse power as well as 183 lb-ft of torque; it provides a selection in between a five-speed handbook and a four-speed transmission. Additionally available is a 4.0-liter VVT-i V-6 that produces 245 horsepower as well as 282 lb-ft of torque that can be mated to a six-speed handbook or a five-speed automatic transmission. Anti-lock brakes with Digital Brakeforce Circulation and Brake Help are standard, with side-curtain airbags as well as Automobile Stability Control optional. An AccessCab set up X-Runner variation uses a longer wheelbase, a larger track and also reduced ride elevation, as well as comes powered by the V-6 as well as six-speed manual. An offered Toyota Competing Advancement supercharger boosts this powerplant's result by around 60 even more horses.

2001 Toyota Tacoma Review
Toyota's small pickups are easy to take for given. Owners seem to think they could lug silly tons and proceed running without routine upkeep so they load them up like semis and also drive them until the crankcase oil turns to taffy. Toyota dealers seem to look upon them as an annuity, frequently offering well with very little promotion and also absolutely no initiative. And considering that they have not transformed much because the intro of the latest generation and its Tacoma name in 1995, there's rarely much information for the press to get delighted about.
For 2001 nonetheless, there's something new in Tacomaville, with upgrading throughout the line, and also the enhancement of four-door Dual Cab and also S-Runner road efficiency models.
Following year we'll be back overlooking the Tacoma again, no question.

1999 Toyota Tacoma Review
We could not assist but think of a scene from the end of the 1980s motion picture standard, Back to the Future when we were driving the 1999 Toyota Tacoma 4x4. "Marty, I ended up waxing your truck - and also I placed three layers of wax on this time," Biff stated with a smile, as he handed Marty McFly the tricks to his four-wheel drive Toyota pick-up.
Although Toyota's portable vehicle wasn't actually christened Tacoma till 1995, spiritually the Tacoma coincides as the black truck utilized in Back to the Future. Just as Marty's Toyota 4x4 looked like it was greater than qualified off-road, our vehicle, geared up with the $1,660 Toyota Competing Advancement (TRD) off-road bundle, appeared to have similar abilities.
And also with off road tuned suspension, black wheel arc moldings, 15-inch alloy wheels rolling on 31-inch tires as well as a locking back differential, the Tacoma we checked most definitely had the equipment required to take on severe off-road situations.

(Recasts, updates numbers, adds details)
ISTANBUL, Sept 12 (Reuters) - The Turkish lira firmed on Wednesday as investors assessed prospects for Thursday's central bank rate-setting meeting, where policymakers are expected to raise interest rates to underpin the ailing currency.
The currency has lost more than 40 percent of its value against the dollar this year on worries over President Tayyip Erdogan's grip on monetary policy and, more recently, over a diplomatic spat between Ankara and Washington.
Having remained mostly flat earlier in the week, the lira made gains on Wednesday, firming as far as 6.3425 to its strongest level since Aug. 29.
The lira stood at 6.3525 against the dollar at 1250 GMT, firming one percent from Tuesday's close of 6.4225.
The central bank did not raise rates at its last meeting in July, confounding expectations. Since then, the lira has lost some 25 percent of its value and data last week showed annual inflation surged to 17.9 percent in August.
Investors expect the central bank to deliver a rate hike in Thursday's meeting but analyst forecasts for the scale of the increase vary widely as the bank balances concerns over lira weakness with worries about an economic slowdown.
Rate hike predictions ranged between 225 to 725 basis points. (Reporting by Ali Kucukgocmen; Editing by Daren Butler)

Her mother had episodes of grandiosity and forced Maria to wear expensive dresses that were too big so that she could not go outside and play with the other children. There was never a lemonade stand and rarely were there balloons.
She sang for her lost childhood. She mourned for the birds. After spending so many years walking down dark hallways she sought the light; even as fractured as the light is. How many costumes can one person wear in a lifetime without losing their identity?
[Wounded birds flew from nest to nest seeking comfort]
Maria Callas suffered from myopia, which is why she wore welder's goggles while sunbathing. She wrapped her neck in towels of warm lemon water. She wrapped her dreams in rags.
From a young age she imagined what love might taste like. She eventually settled on orange. The first time she felt the sting of love prick her soft petals she was overwhelmed by such a sudden sadness of loss that she remained bedridden for three days. Even the birds stopped singing.
When she sang she could feel herself falling back into herself. Only her voice had wings.
Older now and love was an illusion that often visited her on holidays. Alone, ever as ever, she began to design her death. She plucked the tar from her feathers and buried the notes from her final performance in a box with a blue velvet lining. She stepped outside on the balcony of her apartment to feel the heat of the sun on her dying face and she cried beautifully, as only she could do. A butterfly landed on her cheek and drank her tears before it fluttered away.
[Death is a dream. Who cannot live with honor must die with honor]
She curled among her sleeping things and fluttered away.

Cloud of Bats, for Vivid Sydney
Artists Ruth McDermott and Ben Baxter's installation at Observatory Hill, The Rocks, evoked memories of the nightly bat migration that has existed in areas of Australia for thousands of years, while the sandstone reminded them of the amazing natural landscape on which Sydney exists. The 18 meter long installation used netting to support the bat cloud. The colours of sunset were used to wash across the magnificent sandstone wall to act as a fitting backdrop for these creatures of the night as they farewell the day.

Players weren't the only things freezing during Cowboys-Bears game
Just how cold was it in Chicago on Monday night?
Cold enough that heaters were needed to unfreeze the water in the Gatorade bottles on the field.
While the game didn't have the snow in seen in many parts of the country yesterday like Philadelphia, the kickoff temperature of 8 degrees did make it the coldest game in Dallas Cowboys history.
And that's saying something, considering one of their most famous games in franchise history was the Ice Bowl.

Having analyzed simplified wave form migration structures in a three dimensional boundary such as flagellum and deoxyribonucleic acid, we found potential application of vortices to explain wave duality and/or redundant kinetic oscillation in a membrane.
Efficient hovering at shallow elevations should be accomplished by intermittent oscillations and not static resistance; a gradual ascent and consequential decent building kinetic discharge.
