HowToRent in The Press
The New York Times, Examiner.com & Channel 11 News Rental Expert
Channel 11 News: Rental Expert for "Help Me Howard" (video upon request)
Finding an apartment in New York is possible. Just do your homework.
We spoke with Alicia Schwartz, she's the director of the rental resource www.HowToRentInNYC.com.
The following is her advice.
Think about hiring a broker. If your time is limited or you've been looking but haven't found the apartment of your dreams, a broker could make the difference. They may end up showing you an apartment you could have found yourself. But keep in mind they can show you places you would never have had access to. But if the thought of paying one really puts you off; usually you pay the equivalent of one month's rent for their services and remember that will be on top of your first and last month's rent and security that you pay upfront. If you're going to be in the apartment for awhile..paying out that money feels less painful.
New York Times: 9/18/09 THE HUNT
A friend mentioned HowToRentInNYC.com, where Miss Movahedi learned she could circumvent brokers and avoid a fee by dealing directly with management companies, "which I never even though of as an option," she said. "It was kind of a relief."
The Web site included lists of management companies. She ventured farther north to check out a one-bedroom, for $1,850, on East 21st Street. "It was like police village over there, with a million cop cars," she said, so she didn't worry about security. (The New York City Police Academy is across the street.) The problem was the lack of a real kitchen - the apartment had just a kitchenette in the living room.
Examiner.com, We are their rental expert, 1/11/09- to present
NY Rentals Examiner Alicia Schwartz, director of the popular rental resource www.HowToRentInNYC.com and the career tool www.TheCareerProject.org, will post about New York City apartment rental deals and news, as well as answer questions about how to rent an apartment in New York City. Email email@example.com with your questions!
MSNBC.com "How To Hit Up Your Landlord for Cheaper Rents" 1/13/09
Tip No. 6: Be a sleuth. You need to do your homework. Call up and find out what the vacancy rate is in your building, and in other buildings owned by your landlord. How much did that guy pay who just rented a similar place above you? What are the discounts down the street for similar-sized apartments? How to get this info? Most larger buildings in larger cities are managed by "management companies" and not small landlords. "This is helpful in that most management companies have taken to the Web to post their listings on their Web sites or other online sources," says Alicia Schwartz, founder and owner of HowtoRentinNYC.com .
"To get the management companies' information, you can literally look inside the building's entryway and there is always a plaque with their information on there. Call them - usually you are talking to a secretary or assistant who has their listings," she says. Also, peruse their Web sites, along with the sites of companies like Schwartz's.

New York Times, Real Estate Section Front Page! "Finding Your First Apartment" 4/20/2008
Alicia Schwartz, a former Citi Habitats agent and director of howtorentinnyc.com, said that trolling the Internet for no-fee apartments had become easier in recent years. The Web site Craigslist, for example, offers no-fee listings by owners, no-fee broker listings where the landlord will pay the broker's commission and fee-based broker listings.
There are also listing services that charge a fee for providing no-fee listings. Ms. Schwartz said, though, that those Web sites can be outdated. "At the height of the rental season, landlord listings change from hour to hour," she said. "And the only ones who talk to landlords hour to hour are brokers, not listing services."

After professing my girl crush on Amanda Seyfried, the lovelies at Teen Vogue sent over lots of pics and info on this month's cover girl (merci, darlings!). I love the 1950's retro-glam beach shots and now want a ruffly polka-dot bathing suit, not to mention those incredible Miu Miu shoes. Are you listening, wishlist?
Further proof that one-pieces have just as much appeal as bikinis. And Kelly Ripa was right recently when she noted that Amanda Seyfried does look like a young Michelle Pfeiffer. Can you see it? Do you also adore her coral-red lipstick too? It's Maybelline ColorSensational Lipcolor in Are You Red-dy. I think I am.
After Mamma Mia!, the small Greek island of Skopelos suddenly became a vacation destination (it was the first spot on our European adventure last summer/fall, though we had chosen it before ever seeing the movie — and to be honest, the locals didn't exactly seem to love the newfound attention). I wonder if Verona, Italy is ready for the onslaught of new romantics who will be traveling there to write and deliver their Letters to Juliet… Which, by the way, was a really charming movie.
For more with Amanda, check out this cute little video (above) shot in Verona, Italy. To read her June-July Teen Vogue cover story, click here (or pick up a copy on stands May 25th).

With the holidays approaching, I decided this was the ideal time to freshen up on my casserole creating. To be a pioneer you would be likened to a member of an infantry group going with or ahead of an army or regiment to prepare the roads or terrain for the main body of troops. Most of these damaging Walmart testimonials have been met by a pretty prompt response from Pioneer Woman" consumer service like the a single below. Yup, I guess it is accurate that there are many who operate as tough at advertising themselves as they do in coming up with recipes.
Due to the fact the Pioneer Woman's housewifery is distinctly rural, it is exotic to her readers, a lot of of whom log on from suburban or urban locales. She sounds like just the kind of woman who can attract a dazzling cowboy, modify her life fully, and by no means forget every thing she ever knew that could aid her create a fabulous profession of her personal. The Pioneer Woman Ree Drummond and Dr. Oz make an iced coffee concentrate you can make at residence if you do not reside close to your preferred coffee shop.
I do not genuinely cook if I can aid it so I never have any of the Pioneer Woman's books. My family and I have been watching her television show for the last handful of years and have created numerous of her dishes. Once again, most department retailers have gorgeous sets of fall dishes with Thanksgiving type themes, but I like these plain colored dishes that leave a lot of flexibility on other table/kitchen decorations. On April 22, 1930, Pioneer Woman was dedicated at its permanent site in Ponca City. Meanwhile, I have baked Pioneer Woman's sheet cake and brownies and scones I have cooked her meatloaf and pizza and steak sandwich.
The biggest selling point for the molded plastic dinnerware was that the dishes have been indeed unbreakable. Ree Drummond is a bestselling author and blogger – her blog, The Pioneer Woman" (exactly where she shares recipes, stories, and photos of her family) is wildly well-known. Excellent luck and thank you to Land Lakes® Butter and The Pioneer Woman for generously sponsoring this giveaway! Uncover Pioneer Woman kitchen tools that are versatile and designed to function for your life.

Jeremy came home from work yesterday to tell me that they were informed there was going to be an "announcement" made on Friday. The company he works for makes parts for another local company, TK, who has already laid off 30 people, and just announced earlier this week their plans for laying off another 70. TK had ordered 120 parts, but when only 30 were completed, they said not to make any more. So yeah, we're nervous.
Snow is coming tonight, and lots of it. We're supposed to be getting anywhere from 6"-12", which means we probably won't be leaving the house for a couple of days. So, I decided to be smart and go to town for groceries this morning - before the snow and before everybody within 20 miles from Hastings shows up at the store after work.
The plan was to get our groceries then pick up a couple of Papa Murphy's heart-shaped pizzas for supper Saturday night. Since we ended up having about 30 minutes to kill before the pizza place opened, I decided to stop at a few places that always put a smile on my face. We made stopped at a local store to pick up a little fabric, my favorite bookstore for the 7th AoGG book, and my favorite beading store for a few supplies to help keep me busy while we're snowed in. We then picked up the pizza, and were about to head home when I remembered that we still needed a digital converter box. So off we went to KMart. What happened there made me smile even more.
I saw D. D has been my older brother's best friend for 25 years, and I have loved this guy since the day I met him (what began as me having a massive crush on him has grown into a friendship that almost resembles a brother/sister relationship). Most people who meet him don't like him. They think he's a loser and can't understand why I adore him. If I had met him at a different time in my life, I'm sure I'd probably think the same thing. D is far, far from perfect. He was a fairly good kid until high school. The doctors started experimenting with his ADD medication, and he didn't always make very good decisions. His senior year, he got his girlfriend pregnant. So, he dropped out of school to find a full-time job so he could take care of his new family.
One night, D was home alone with his baby girl, and he invited another friend, J, over to hang out. At one point, J went in to peek on the baby and noticed something wasn't right. He called for D, and it was he who saw his baby girl in her bed, not breathing. The drive to the hospital from his house should have taken at least 10 minutes. When they got in the car, there was a song on the radio (I can't remember now what song it was, but he can tell you the song and the exact words), and he got to the hospital before the song was over. Everything was done that could be done, but SIDS took her anyway. That was the turning point in his life, and not for the better.
D has had more downs than ups in his life since then, most are of his own doing, and to name them all would take a long, long time. The last time I saw him was almost 8 years ago, when Taylor was only a few months old. He had just started taking his life in a direction that was not good for me to be around, and I tried my hardest to convince him to do otherwise. In the end, all I could do was to let him know that I love him, won't judge him, and am here if he needs/wants the kind of help I'm willing to give. I've heard bits and pieces from mutual friends, and there have been times within these last 8 years that I have cried for him. He is one of the most intelligent people I know with the biggest heart, but he does his best to ignore these wonderful qualities.
I saw D today, and I got tears in my eyes again. He moved back in with his parents for now. He has a job. It's not the most glamorous (most 33-year-old men wouldn't choose to be a KMart stock boy), but it's legal. It has been almost one year (next month) that he has stayed out of jail. And, he's in rehab. One thing that I have always loved about D is that he never makes excuses for himself. He has always taken responsibility for his actions, no matter how big the mistake has been. He is also probably the most loyal friend anyone could possibly have. I pray for D every night because he has the potential to go so far in life and to bring so much goodness.
I apologize...I didn't mean to babble so much about D. It just made me happy to see him in a good place.
If Jeremy is going to be home for the next few days, I doubt if I'll be on much. I hope you all have a Happy Valentine's Day, and for those of you who are about to get hit with all this snow - stay warm and safe!

Now that we've got you convinced that roulette is the game for you. And Roulette Rebel is the place to learn, we'll walk you through wheels of fortune and lead you to the winner's circle. Well that's if Lady Luck decides that it's to be. Because she is your only true opponent once the wheel begins to turn.
Many people choose online roulette numbers because they hold a special meaning. They could be a birthday, an anniversary or a lucky number but if you happen to be a James Bond fan then you'll probably choose 17. It's the most frequently played single number after a game of roulette featured in a Bond blockbuster movie. Plus it's the number in the middle of the board.
Roulette is solely a game of chance and this is evident even in its creation. Back in the 17th century Blaise Pascal was attempting to create a perpetual motion machine but he accidentally designed the first roulette wheel in the world. Online roulette is one of the most exciting games to play and it's popular because the rules are simple to learn and the betting options are easy to understand. At Roulette Rebel we love playing all versions of the game and we provide you with the basic rules, what the table layout consists of, the different bets that are available and the famous and infamous betting strategies.
Test yourself against fate by placing your bet, crossing your fingers, spinning the wheel and seeing if fortune favours the brave.

This week is National Psoriasis Awareness week and I have been posting about this condition on my Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/HerbsForHealthAndWellbeingLtd as well as tweeting lifestyle tips and techniques on my Twitter account: https://twitter.com/GrimsbyHerbalUK
I would like to write about this condition in a bit more detail. Herbal medicine is effective at managing psoriasis which is where skin completes its cycle in a few days instead of taking a month and therefore scales or plaques of skin occur usually around the elbows, ears, knees, legs, scalp and lower back. The skin condition is usually symmetrical in appearance and can also affect finger nails causing them to be pitted and cracked. Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition where the bodies inflammatory response doesn't resolve naturally. There is a hereditary link with 10-30% of family members having psoriasis, sufferers may have had an emotional event prior to psoriasis occurring and there is also a possible link to allergies or intolerances which may trigger a psoriasis outbreak. Doctors do not know why people experience this skin condition.
Modern medicine approaches treatment by giving anti-inflammatories including steroids, as a herbalist this condition is approached in a radically different way treating each person individually as their events, symptoms and there effects on their life will be completely different despite the condition being the same. A consultation investigates possible immunological issues as well as looks for links between the skin symptoms and events deep in the body.
Skin diseases can be seen as signals of inner toxicity and indicate the need to cleanse the body and assess which toxins may have been aggravating the situation. If it is deemed that the immune system is a factor in psoriasis then the digestive system should be closely assessed and several elimination diets completed to determine which foods cause an inflammatory response in the person.
People who suffer with psoriasis may have low levels of the mineral bromine and should also look at their levels of Vitamin A, Vitamin E, Selenium and Zinc. As a herbalist I can offer a quick and easy zinc test to determine if you are deficient.
There has been success reducing itching and redness of psoriasis by having regular oat baths. Take a cup full of rolled oats and place in a muslin bag or an old pair of tights and when running your bath allow the water to run into the oats to create a sumptuous milky bath similar to Cleopatra's in her day 🙂 When taking these baths on a regular basis the psoriasis can even reduce or clear up.
When looking at diet it would be worthwhile reducing (and even excluding) the levels of sugar, yeast containing foods and all refined carbohydrates as these usually aggravate psoriasis and contribute to inflammatory states. Excluding dairy would also be worthwhile trialling for at least a month to see if the condition improves. Introduce more oily fish, pumpkin seeds and apple cider vinegar to your diet. Why not try dandelion root coffee – a bitter caffeine free drink which helps to support the body especially in cases of psoriasis?
Try to reduce the amount of fried food you consume, reduce sweets and pastries, sausages, alcohol, caffeine and foods containing artificial colours and preservatives. A study found that psoriasis flare ups can be caused by artificially coloured or flavoured foods.
If you have any questions about this condition or how herbal medicine can help to support you in managing your psoriasis please do not hesitate to contact me on: http://www.herbsforhealthandwellbeing.co.uk/how-to-contact-a-herbalist-in-grimsby.html

Do you really need variable wattage when there are many variable voltage mods available? There are loads of spinner-type devices like the VaporFi Rocket, Halo Triton, and Vision Spinner: won't those do the trick? There's more to a variable voltage/wattage device than this minimal level of control (which only gives you less than 5 volts anyway).
Weighing up the Facts
Considering the number of devices that are being upgraded to offer both variable voltage and wattage, I would say yes: you need the option to do either, but even if your device can be adjusted either way, you can't adjust both.
Remember that you select one function. If you vary wattage, voltage will automatically be adjusted by the chip in your device.
Some people understand the correlation between correct voltage and ohms better than they do wattage. With prices coming down for this kind of technology, it will not be a stretch to supply yourself with a mod that does both.
A Look at Some of the Best
The following is a list and description of just some mods, tube and box-shaped, that users and vendors consider the best. There are actually quite a lot of good devices available in both shapes but their prices can become excessive and the power they offer might be too much for you.
Not everyone is a cloud chaser and a maximum wattage of 15 or 30 watts might be ample for what you need. Sub-ohms compatibility is another factor which some consumers consider optional and others search for assiduously. Decide for yourself what matters when you start your research. The mods considered in this article will be the following:
• LavaTube 2.5 by Volcano
• Tesla
• Vamo
• iTaste SVD
Also, as far as the shape of your device goes, this is meaningless regarding power or function. Choosing a box mod or a tube mod is a matter of preference. Some people find the tube more cigar-like or sleek; others like the way a box reminds them of an iPod, Zippo lighter, or a radio.
LavaTube 2.5
Volcano's sleek advanced device is made from aluminum alloy and coated in a variety of colors so as to look heavy but feel light. You might recognize the three-button display which is a departure from the usual one-button setup. Use the big button to turn your device on and off. Two smaller buttons adjust voltage or wattage up or down respectively.
A blue LCD display shows you ohms and voltage. This is a 510-threaded device that will work beautifully with Volcano LavaTube tanks but also various other devices. Two vent holes protect the LavaTube from overheating while other protective features prevent damage caused by reversed battery, overcharging, and other potential dangers which would ruin a lesser product.
The Tesla
First off, make sure you get yourself a genuine Tesla. The way to tell if you are looking at a fake, before anything else, is to examine the price (that goes for virtually any advanced vaporizer). A $30 Tesla is probably not the real deal even though, with the markup, many top-notch items should only cost that much. Remember that some high-priced packages contain more than the tube but also include a battery and possibly a tank.
The Tesla is available in chrome or black and looks like it was made to work. The chip controls amps, creates a consistent temperature, and allows you to set it to a maximum of 15 watts. This internal chip also protects your Tesla against reverse battery goofs. It has a vented body to prevent overheating, and the aluminum alloy build is light so it won't feel like a rock in your pocket. 510/eGo connection makes this a highly compatible tube mod: it should work with just about any tank. The OLED display is bright and easy to read.
Innokin iTaste SVD
Trust Innokin to deliver the goods at any level of vaping, from beginner e cigs to advanced devices. Their iTaste SVD commonly features on e-tail websites because it does not let consumers down, so finding one won't be a challenge.
Just be sure to see the name "Innokin" on a company's website to be sure it's the real deal. Like the Tesla, this is a VV/VW mod and highly compatible with multiple tanks and clearomizers. Use an 18350 battery, which is probably not included.
The chip in your iTaste SVD box mod will check and report battery life, voltage, wattage, ohms, and warn you if there is a low voltage situation. It also provides battery protection. Select up to 15 watts by 0.5-watt increments.
Vamo V5
Version 5 of the Vamo continues to do its maker proud. A sturdy build and lovely bright screen are just eye candy, but this simple metal tube mod is more than good looking: it has power.
Install an 18650 or 18350 battery. Wattage, like the device above, can be adjusted from 3 to 15 watts by 0.5-watt increments. Attach any 510/eGo tank/clearo/atomizer. Your blue screen displays the voltage and wattage.
An internal chip protects against low resistance, too little or too much current, and over-heating (an automatic cut-off feature shuts down the Vamo if a user depresses the button for too long). When you set wattage, the Vamo will automatically adjust to the ideal voltage.
How Much for Variable Wattage
You are looking at a cost of around $100 for any decent Variable Wattage device, but the exact price will depend on how crazy you go. As mentioned above there are serious VW box mods that go up to 100 watts and cost around $200. Remember to always factor the price of buying a battery and tank into the overall cost of your mod unless you have an atomizer you think will fit. In this case, just be sure threading is compatible.

Luton St Patrick's Festival
Irish singer-songwriter Lee Matthews will headline this month's St Patrick's Festival in Luton which starts on Saturday 12 March.
It will take place in the UK Carnival Arts Centre with live entertainment from Maeve Farrell, The Brooks Academy of Irish Dance and The Connemaras from 8pm. Festivities will begin with a pre-parade mass by Sean O Riada, sung in at 9.30am in the Our Lady Help of Christians Church led by the Luton Irish Forum Choir, followed by entertainment in Luton's Market Hill.
From 10am to 4pm, Lee Matthews (pictured) will be on the main stage, performing some of his most famous hits alongside London-based Irish musicians, The Good, The Bad and The Ginger, award winning traditional musicians John, Joe and Caz Devine with Eugene Teevan and The Cunningham Family Dancers, launching the St Patrick's Parade.
The Parade will start at 11am, with the Luton Irish Forum Emerald Pipe Band leading the way through the streets of Luton, concluding at Market Hill with the annual presentation of shamrock.
The celebrations will continue inside in 'The Mall' with music from Clara Byrne and the Leagrave Comhaltas traditional musicians with Irish dancing from the Brooks Academy of Irish Dancing and many more.
Festival Committee Volunteer at Luton Irish Forum, Noreen Kellett MBE said: "At the beginning it was a very small parade, we had one band and a small audience, but the St Patrick's Festival has come a long way towards uniting the Irish Community in Luton.
The Festival has always made an effort to embrace the Luton community in all of its diversity, with local people from all cultures and beliefs eager to dress up and walk in the parade every year." St Patrick's Day itself will mark the end of the Festival, with St Patrick's Day celebrations held at the Luton Irish Forum from 11am with entertainment from Spectrum Radio's Gerry Byrne and the Finbarr Conway Academy of Irish Dancing as well as music from The Wilsons and Sean Furey (of the Skivers).
Luton Mayor Councillor Dave Taylor said: "The St Patrick's Day Festival has made an immense impact on the way in which different cultures within Luton unite.
The Festival gives the Irish community the opportunity to show off their culture and heritage through traditional music and dance, encouraging people from all backgrounds and communities to take part in the celebrations."

|Amnesty for Foreign Bank Accounts Nets €450m for the Treasury
Six thousand people with illicit savings accounts in foreign banks have registered a total of €3bn in assets with the Dutch tax authorities since September.
This has generated €450m for the treasury, junior finance minister Eric Wiebes is quoted as saying by Nos television. On average, people had €500,000 in their foreign savings accounts, of which €75,000 went to the treasury.
The finance ministry is currently running an amnesty for people with illicit cash abroad. From July they will be fined 30% of their foreign cash for tax evasion and from July 2015, 60%.
The amnesty has been so successful because countries such as Luxemburg and Switzerland are revising their bank secrecy laws. Liechtenstein is also planning to make changes, Nos television said.

For those attending SIGGRAPH, whether for the first time or the 38th time, you can expect to experience a banquet of innovation, inspiration, creativity, education, and community.
Vancouver was a top choice as a host city for SIGGRAPH because it has a strong base in the primary SIGGRAPH communities: artists, academics, film production, gaming, VFX, research, and more. It is both an international and an entrepreneurial city that creatively blends urban and natural environments. Besides the concentration of our various communities here, we also have a very active professional chapter based in Vancouver that has served as a valuable partner. But regardless of what city we are in, for our community, SIGGRAPH is home.
Interestingly, the theme of "Make It Home" came from a 2011 conference committee member last year who stated that the discussions about what the conference meant to us reminded her of a picture of the Earth taken from Apollo 17 (the famous Blue Marble photo). Directly under the photo was one word: Home. This idea resonated with everyone in the room. It didn't matter WHERE the conference was. It only mattered WHO made up the conference. We would be home no matter where we were.
I'm also very excited about how content is shaping up. We saw a 47 percent increase in completed submissions over last year's numbers. We saw significant increases in Technical Papers, Games Papers, Art, and Art Papers submissions. While numbers don't directly correlate to quality, I feel very comfortable that our jury process will ensure that SIGGRAPH 2011 will continue its prestigious tradition of excellence. Additionally, our exhibition hall is growing, particularly with new vendors from overseas.
I believe that each of you should expect to be fully engaged and inspired by the conference as well as by the amazing natural beauty you will encounter both inside and outside the convention center.
See you at Home!

Among the most controversial issues roiling fin-de-siècle Vienna was "Die Frauenfrage," or "the woman question." As they were doing in many other cities and nations of Europe and North America, women were challenging a patriarchal society that judged them unworthy of the rights customarily accorded to men.
You would hope that "Klimt and the Women of Vienna's Golden Age, 1900-1918," at the Neue Galerie, would delve widely, deeply and fearlessly into this complex topic. But while scholarly essays in the hefty, 320-page catalog do just that, the show itself only partly and obliquely brings out the most interesting issues relating to women and the art of Gustav Klimt.

International Down Syndrome Coalition/
Have you heard of IDSC for Life? Check them out!!!
Here is their Mission Statement (taken directly from their website):
IDSC for Life is dedicated to serving individuals with Down syndrome from conception throughout their lives. We will achieve this by supporting families who have been given a prenatal diagnosis of Down syndrome. We direct families to accurate and up-to-date information about Down syndrome. We extend our heartfelt compassion, and hope and healing to parents who who were pressured to terminate, and ended their pregnancy because of a Down syndrome diagnosis and later regret that decision.
Here are only a few of the services that they offer. Not to mention the adorable pictures that they post all the time!!! This organization is very active in promoting knowledge and awareness about those living with Down syndrome.
1) Offer support to parents who are new to the Down syndrome diagnosis.
2) Create awareness about the current trend by professionals, friends and family, who pressure women to terminate a pregnancy when Down syndrome is diagnosed for their pre born baby.
3) Connect to the Down syndrome associations as a resource to them and their members
4) Connect to the national Down syndrome organizations as a resource to them and their members
In honour of Down Syndrome Awareness month, we volunteered to have IDSC for life feature our family on their website and Facebook page. They are running a campaign called "Real Families, Real Stories." This campaign aims to highlight how loving someone with Down Syndrome has changed their lives.
We are proud to share that our story was chosen to lead off the campaign. You can view it here on the IDSC website. Don't forget to like their Facebook page!!!

Our series finished up yesterday, after 11 days of racing (only 2 cancelled on account of rain). You can check out yesterday's results here, with the Overall standings updated here.
Over the 11 races, with 7 different categories (Kids, Juniors, Women's A and B, and Men's A, B and C), there ended up being 44 different people winning at least one race, and 90 different racers found their way on to the podium. So there was always some intense action at our races, wins were never guaranteed. Consistently good performance seemed to be the name of the game for our series winners. A big congratulations goes out to our series winners:
Kids: Oliver Hart
Juniors: Jack Tanner
Women B: Deidre Garvey
Women A: Erin Huck
Men C: Ken Kreidl
Men B: Rick Emerson
Men A: Bryan Alders
Bryan Alders and Erin Huck tied for the most number of wins this summer, with 6 each. The A categories had some fierce competitions, as both Alders and Huck won the series by less than 200 points. For the Women B category, attendance and consistancy mattered more than winning. Deidre Garvey never got the victory, but she was usually in the top 4 of every race. Her persistance and reliability resulted in the Summer Series Overall victory, which is an even more sweet reward.
We are happy to see so many kids interested in mountain biking. Over the course of the series, 55 different children competed.
The Short Track Series is a huge fundraiser for the CU Cycling team, so we REALLY appreciate everyone who came out. We want to thank Full Cycle as well for supplying the truck to post results on, and even moreso for the hot dogs and burgers they graceously supply week after week. It's been a fun summer. We'll see you again next summer!

First of all, it is well photographed and the historical text is amazing. It would be a good book to teach ages 10 to 12 about the Civil War and what led up to it. The quilt blocks are striking which is what, I think, got my client interested in having a quilt just like it. It's the directions that make my brain hurt. Some of these pieces are to be cut at 16ths of an inch. As someone I was recently talking to pointed out, that's a scissor width. Even with our rotary cutters and fabulous rulers, that is a pain in the ass to cut out - especially since most quilting rulers only go down to 1/8 inch. I have spent a great deal of time redrafting all of the blocks I've stitched so far to eliminate that fussy cutting. That's time I may or may not get paid for since I've already committed myself to an estimate which I cannot exceed by more than 10%. Kinda sucks. So, anyway, be warned. If you are looking for a challenge, by all means, this might be the book for you. If not, move on to something with directions that are more well written.
The first block I did was by-the-book. The block is called North and South; two pieces were to be cut to 16ths. And I did that. The block ended up being smaller than the 9.5 called for. I left the corner pieces off (I later realized). Probably because my mind was so numb from trying to piece this thing - there are 41 pieces in the block. Nuf said. I added "cheddar" around the outside which will blend in with the sashing and hopefully the block will not stand out like a sore thumb because then I will have to stitch it again.
Next came Bow Tie which was fairly straight forward.
Then Ohio Star. Generally the directions in this book tell you to cut triangles. There is none of that "save time by"... kind of sewing in this book. So I used Fons & Porter's method for making half square triangles and modified it to make the Ohio Star block. They say if you want a bunch of half square trianges, you take 2 times the finished size of the square you need and then add 1.75 inches. So, basically you take a big block - I think that this one ended up being about 8 inches and you mark it up and sew this way and that like this . . . .
Then I pressed the square and then I cut on all the marked lines. Ended up with these:
Which are triangles in two colors. Then all I needed to do was stitch them together into square patches that looked like these:
Spot the difference? Patches are placed wrong. This one will have to be taken apart and reunited again.
Then I moved on to the Crossways block. Used the Fons & Porter half triangle square method for these and it was a breeze.
Next up is 1832 and that was started off with the Devil's Claw block.
I really love this block. I like the graphic image and I also really like the fabric combination. I did not love putting it together. There are five rows and the instructions were to cut squares, rectangles and triangles. And I'm sitting there looking at it going, those are flying geese! So, had to figure out an easy method for flying geese. I could not find an easy math method in any of my Fons and Porter back issues. I am not completely incapable of figuring out math myself - it's just that it makes my head hurt. I did finally come up with a flying geese pattern in a magazine and calculated the ratio of the square to the rectangle and how to resize the square to go with any size rectangle. Once that was accomplished, I cut out squares and rectangles and had at sewing them together. Now, the instructions said that the patches with the white background blocks in the middle were supposed to be four blue triangles sewn around a white square. I chose to change that and used two flying goose units sewn together. If I were to do it again, I'd use the square and triangles because the two flying geese together left a seam that I had to deal with by snipping on the back - and a lot of pressing. Hopefully my quilter will not hate me later. In the end, though, I got a really nice looking block.
This current chapter has four fairly simple blocks left in it that I hope to tackle today. By the end of the weekend I'm hoping to have at least this chapter and another done.
Here are all the blocks (so far) together out in the noon sun the other day -
Here's an update on Opus Magnusson. You can now see the outer border that I'm going to give it. Stitching this border is mind-numbingly boring. I keep wanting to stop and work on something else. So, that means I have to keep slogging away; 'cause if I stop, I know it'll be difficult to go back to.
Hope you enjoyed!

IPL & Laser Hair Removal Treatments
- Achieve 90% removal & long lasting results*
- IPL & RevLite Laser available to treat all hair types
- Virtually no downtime and no time off work required
- 15 Years' experience delivering IPL & laser hair removal
For permanent reduction of hair growth this is good for large areas or needing to reduce a bulk of hair in a fairly short space of time. Several treatments are needed, approximately 6 to 8 on the body and 8 to 12 on the face. This will achieve a good clearance of around 80 – 90%.
*Results may vary from person to person.
What's the difference between IPL and Laser hair removal?
IPL (Intense Pulse Light) and laser are two different technologies, although they are both used either separately or in conjunction for hair removal treatments as they both disrupt the growth cycle of hair follicles.
IPL devices are not a laser, they are effectively a light bulb in the sense that they produce a broad spectrum of wavelengths as opposed to one. These wavelengths are effective for treating superficial pigmentation, fine blood vessels and markings on the skin, and IPL can also be used for a variety of hair removal treatments – it's especially effective for thick and coarse hair removal.
The Revlite is different in that it has a short pulse and although is quite gentle at 1064nm wavelength, it is aimed at fine hair as it doesn't really penetrate deep enough to really damage the strong coarse hair.
At Andrea Catton, we may use RevLite treatments for fine hair and IPL treatments for coarse/thick hair to ensure a safer procedure and better long-term hair removal results. We also take your preferences into account to deliver a treatment that's right for you.
What body parts can be treated?
We are able to treat clients on the following body parts: Arms, underarm, legs, chest, hands, feet, shoulders, back, face (lower, chin, cheeks), throat or neck, upper lip, between the eyebrows, abdomen, bikini lines and any other body parts that IPL and laser treatments can reach safely.
What results can you expect?
Depending on the size of the are being treated, treatments can take anywhere between 5 minutes and 90 minutes (full legs). IPL and laser hair removal treatments tend to require 6 to 8 treatments on the body and 8 to 12 treatments on the face. Our experience has shown that 80-90 percent hair clearance is realistic after this level of treatment. Some patients report noticing a difference after just 2-3 treatments, however the full results will only be known after a full treatment course has been performed.
Is hair permanently removed?
While IPL and lasers are an effective treatment for hair removal, due to the natural hair regrowth cycle, hair may grow back over time.
When a hair follicle is destroyed it has gone forever but the body can trigger the growth of a completely new hair follicle. We refer to this as permanent reduction as there should remain less hair than before.
IPL and laser only affects actively growing hairs and so you may require more than one course of treatment to get that hair-free look you are after. The good news is that with a carefully planned treatment structure, these technologies are effective and everybody can benefit from IPL and laser hair treatments.
How much does it cost?
For a full list of our prices please visit our pricing page by clicking here.
All consultations & treatments require a £50 refundable deposit to secure the appointment.
48 hour notice is required to move or cancel an appointment or the deposit is forfeited at our discretion.
IPL & Laser Hair Removal FAQs
Is IPL and laser hair removal suitable for everyone?
We cannot treat clients with an active tan as there is a risk of hyper or hypopigmentation. There are also certain medical conditions or medicines which mean we are unable to treat you with this method, but before all of our treatments we offer a full consultation so that you receive the correct treatment for you. We also perform a patch test in which a small area is treated to see how your skin responds to treatment. You must be a minimum of 18 years for IPL or laser hair removal treatments.
Can IPL or Laser treatments be used for other skin blemishes?
We can use our systems for the treatment of thread veins, skin rejuvenation, pigmentation, stretch marks and acne scarring.
What are the aftercare instructions?
It's always important to avoid sun exposure whilst having IPL or Laser treatments as this may result in a reaction. Always use a sunscreen of a minimum SPF30 on exposed areas.

Toyota might hire 750, produce new vehicle as part of Georgetown expansion
FRANKFORT — Toyota is planning an ambitious new project for its flagship Georgetown plant that might see it producing a new vehicle and adding 750 jobs.
The news came Wednesday when the Kentucky Economic Development Finance Authority gave preliminary approval to $146.5 million in tax incentives for the project, which is shrouded in mystery.
Toyota spokesman Rick Hesterberg declined to comment on the project other than to say, "We continue to look for opportunities to localize production and build where we sell. However, we have nothing to announce at this time." Toyota later announced a Friday morning press conference with the governor.
Katie Smith of the state's Cabinet for Economic Development told the KEDFA board that the project is a vehicle model that is new to the plant, which would produce 50,000 of them annually beginning in fall 2015. She declined to name the vehicle model.
The Georgetown plant "is competing with other Toyota plants for the opportunity to build this new model in North America and incentives are essential for the project to occur in Scott County," Smith said.
The model's annual production of 50,000 would be a small addition for the factory, which produced 462,080 vehicles in 2012. The majority of those were the Camry (300,186 produced). Others were the Camry Hybrid (59,646), Venza (59,806), Avalon (40,337) and Avalon Hybrid (2,105).
With the latest generation of the Camry selling well, the plant is on track to potentially have one of its largest years ever in 2013, Hesterberg has said.
The new project will cost $531.2 million, with $326 million of that focused on equipment. The remainder would be for building expansions and improvements, as well as tooling. No new land is being acquired as part of the project.
The 750 jobs to be created include temporary and contract workers. The state documents suggested 570 of the 750 new jobs would be full-time employees. Their average hourly compensation would be $26. That's significantly below the average of $44.12 in compensation paid to existing employees, many of whom have been with the plant since its opening in the 1980s.
The new employees would bring Toyota's full-time employment to 6,739, according to state records.
Michelle Krebs, a senior analyst for automotive information service Edmunds.com, speculated the project's price tag and employment numbers indicate it's likely to be the expansion of production of a model that Toyota is already producing. She said it could also be a variant or model change of an existing vehicle, such as the Camry, rather than "building a brand-new model from the ground up," she said.
"They redo a vehicle every four years," she said. "It could be a redesign of the Camry, and they're expecting more production. It could be something like that."
Krebs also pointed to the possibility of Toyota building a vehicle from its luxury Lexus line in Georgetown. "There has long been talk about building a Lexus vehicle in the United States," she said.
"That has always been mentioned as a possibility."
Almost all Lexus models are produced in Japan; the RX sport-utility vehicle is also being manufactured in Canada.
She said such an action by Toyota would follow moves by other automakers to build luxury vehicles in the United States.
"Toyota has been saying for some time that it's going to produce more vehicles and more parts in the United States," she said.
The state tax incentives offered to Toyota are part of the Kentucky Jobs Retention Act program, which was initially designed to convince Ford to keep production at its Louisville plants. The program was modified last year to apply to other automakers and certain other facilities.
As part of the program, previous incentives approved for Toyota would be consolidated into this project.
"The beauty of this particular incentive program is it allows a company to have the flexibility for future growth," said Mandy Lambert, spokeswoman for the state Cabinet for Economic Development. "So if, for instance, a company has a project that is approved under this incentive program and then in the future additional investments were to be made, they can be rolled into the agreement and renegotiated."

I have some questions for Lancaster County Water and Sewer District (LCWSD).
LCWSD wants its money, but its service stinks.
We're told to restrict our water usage. So, if we are to restrict our water usage just how is it going to supply water to Haile Gold Mine.

In his column on Aug. 28, Phil Noble praises President Jimmy Carter and says that "but in the end Carter's presidency was overshadowed by the taking of 52 American hostages by Iran radicals.
His time in office wasn't overshadowed by this, but his gas lines, high interest rates, high unemployment and a stagnant econo0my.
We all need to pray for all the men and women with law enforcement.
My son was Deputy James Brent McCants. Brent was murdered Sept. 25, 1992. He was 23 years old. Brent was a deputy with the York County Sheriff's Department.
This year, it'll be 23 years later. Brent would be 46 years old.
Thousands of our men and women are killed trying to protect even the thugs every year. They try to protect us all.
Please pray for these men and women – they are fighting a war here.
If they stop, what would happen to us all?
I woke up April 3 of this year and realized I turned 71 that day. Where did the time go?
Life flies faster than any car, train or airplane.
Suddenly, I realize I'm one of those "old" people we always referred to when we were younger. You realize it when you run into someone you've known for a long time and you can't remember his or her name. And, of course, he or she gives me that poor-old-thing look.
A large issue in the 2016 presidential election trail is the raising of the minimum wage. The biggest supporter of this raise is Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders, who wants the minimum wage up to $15 an hour.
What many fail to realize is, well for one thing Mr. Sanders is a very rich man, and also, raising the minimum wage would mean the inflation of all other goods.
In his article "Lancaster no better than Rhode Island," John Lage gives us a laundry list of useless information as to why he left his previous blue state and threatens to move again.
His article took up quite a bit of the opinion page; however, my response will not.
Good-bye, Mr. Lage. Your venom won't be missed by this reader.

Lauren Kornegay, project coordinator for the Lancaster County Outreach Project, gave an impressive presentation at the Indian Land Democratic Club meeting on Aug. 27.
Kornegay's mission is to raise awareness about the Outreach Project and to enhance the lives of abused and neglected children and adults served through the Department of Social Services of Lancaster in building a comfortable lifestyle that meets their needs.
I gotta admit all the praise for the appearance of the Sheriff's Office is well-deserved.
A nice building with a fleet of new, clean patrol cars speaks well of a law enforcement facility.
There is really no comparison to former departments. Not only is this a credit to the sheriff and his staff, but to changing times and situations.
Maybe it's because I remember the past when my father, W.B. Evans Sr. assumed office on Dec. 1, 1944.
I read with interest Brian Endres' column concerning the Lancaster County school board.
I'm not sure why it was a sign of disrespect that the board sent one member to the Indian Land Action Council meeting, rather than the entire membership.
To be honest, it seems disrespectful to James Brooks, who did appear, to say "only District 1 board member James Brooks showed up."
I read Sen. Greg Gregory's column about roads in the Sept. 2 edition of The Lancaster News. I am glad some of these roads around here are getting a makeover.
While this is a paltry start – it is something. The thing is we need not only our county roads fixed we need the whole state's road system fixed.
Gregory and his colleagues know what needs to be done to fix this problem and it's a huge problem.
Legislators have to stop sweeping it under the rug. The road problem is not going away.

|Sighting Report
|Occurred : 7/1/1993 22:00 (Entered as : 07-1993 22:00)
Reported: 10/1/2007 4:47:30 PM 16:47
Posted: 10/8/2007
Location: Oakdale, CA
Shape: Triangle
Duration:15 minutes
|triangle slowly moving object with "lightning" emitting from the front of it
Years ago, I believe it was the summer of 1993 my wife and myself were headed out to my favorite camping place (Woodward Reservoir in Oakdale Ca.) to meet my parents who were already there. We pulled into the campground around 10 p.m. and proceeded to try to find my parents.
As we were trying to find them, we both noticed a large aircraft over the water near the 28-mile Road Bridge. It was triangle in shape, and very large, maybe 200 ft wide. It had no sound, was maybe 100 ft off of the water, and moved very slow (10-15 mph). There were white lights at each corner of the aircraft, the lights were not particularly bright, nor were they dull. They had a warm fuzzy "glow" about them. As if this wasn't amazing enough for us, there was what appeared to be lightning bolts shooting out of the front of it. This lightning came in pulses lasting about 5 seconds each, and maybe 10 seconds in-between each.
We watched this for 15 to 20 minutes before we were both so freaked out that we went into town to get a hotel room for the night. It is important to realize that both of us seen this thing. Neither of us was drinking, or on any drugs, and even 14 yrs later our individual accounts of what we seen that night are the same.
I have searched for similar accounts online, but have so far not been able to find anything.
((NUFORC Note: Witness indicates that the date of the incident is approximate. PD))

One person has been taken to hospital following a rescue operation in bad weather on the north coast this afternoon.
The casualty was rescued from Torr Head between Ballycastle and Cushendun after falling.
Coastguard cliff rescue teams were dispatched from Ballycastle with a Fast Response Paramedic from the NIAS and an ambulance.
The casualty was assessed by the paramedic before being transferred to the ambulance by the Coastguard where they were transferred to the Causeway Hospital in Coleraine.
At this stage it is not known what the exact injuries are.
The area has been battered by high winds from Storm Frank this afternoon with a landslide causing the closure of Bishops Road near Limavady this morning.
A spokesman for the Coastguard said they had been called in by paramedics to help with a patient who had fallen and was suffering from a suspected broken ankle.
Paramedics asked for the help in moving the casualty down to the ambulance as it could not access the track where he was located.

United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change
Part of the The Statesman's Yearbook book series (SYBK)
The convention was produced at the 1992 UN Conference on Environment and Development with the stated aim of reducing global greenhouse gas emissions to 'a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic (human induced) interference with the climate system'. Signatories agreed to take account of climate change in their domestic policy and to develop national programmes that would slow its progress. However, no mandatory targets were established for the reduction of emissions so the treaty remained legally non-binding. Instead it operates as a 'framework' document, with provisions for regular updates and amendments.

Rarely do I state here that I am thankful it's Friday and that the work week is done. Mostly this is because I feel that this is stating the obvious. Of course everyone's thankful for the end of a work week and the promise of two days of rest. But that's not what Thankful Friday entries are for. These entries are a reminder to stop and take the time to verbally be grateful for the good in my week, which is sometimes difficult. When I have hard weeks, I have to look really hard for the good things to be grateful for. But because I'm devoted to these entries, I look. I look and then I see that yes, there is good stuff in those bad weeks. Earlier in the week my blog (and Misti's) went down. At first I thought it was just a routine maintenance thing, but then I started to worry. I emailed Todd in a panic and while waiting to hear back from him, I tried to hack into our hosting account. Then I was pretty sure I'd messed up the password and by the time I forced myself to just stop, I was convinced that I'd lost the blogs. I was convinced that I'd destroyed everything, doom, gloom, kablamy. I slept fitfully that night, tossing and turning and then I heard from Todd and of course it was all an easy fix. Todd told me what to do, for which I am extremely thankful, and all blogs were back up as if nothing had ever happened.
That moment between broken and fixed was just a moment, but it sent me into panic overdrive because of the thought of losing this space. The very thought of being without the blog made me understand just how grateful I am to have this space. I have never thought of myself as a writer or even very creative, but this space is a practice to help cultivate creativity. It's another practice like my 365 Days of Happy where I take a picture every day of something that has made me happy or Love Thursdays and even Thankful Fridays. This space is my place to spill the crazy randomness of my brain, to promote kindness and understanding. It's a home that I've worked on and cultivated for more than ten years. I may have bought my first house just last year, but this is truly my first home. And I'm more than thankful to have it.
Have a wonderful weekend and very Thankful Friday.

William Hageman revisits a favourite haunt and is relieved to find its character has endured a recent spruce-up.
Before a recent trip to Britain, I checked on the status of a favourite stop, The Ten Bells, at Spitalfields, in London's East End.
The Ten Bells has always been on my London itineraries, originally because of its link to Jack the Ripper but more recently because of its charm, lack of pretence and cheap beer. It was a welcoming dive bar.
During my pre-trip research, however, a red flag popped up. A story referred to The Ten Bells as "trendy".
Trendy. The kiss of death. Seldom compatible with charming, unpretentious and cheap.
A little history: The Ten Bells has been around for 250 years in some form, the last 160 or so at its current location on Commercial Street. The place became a draw because that's supposedly where Jack picked up two victims.
Does that subject still come up?
"All the time," bartender Wanderson Fernandez says, especially because of a Ripper movie showing the bar.
Though Spitalfields has recently undergone a stunning rebirth, The Ten Bells, thankfully, has been upgraded only slightly.
The ripped sofas are gone, the bathrooms are far less frightening, and the bar has been moved to the centre of the room. But its character endures. And beer's still cheap.
Fernandez has been tending bar there for four years, before the pub put on a fresh face and the upscale restaurant Upstairs At The Ten Bells opened one floor above.
"This is one of the most traditional streets in London," he says.
"Some people still live the life of Victorian times, like it's 200 years ago.
"Working in this bar is really special. There's a lot of history, and just being part of it is great."
• The Ten Bells is at 84 Commercial Street, London E1.

Meet the Editorial Board for Modern American History: Q&A with Madeline Hsu
As part of our ongoing blog series introducing the board members of the new Cambridge University Press journal, Modern American History, Madeline Y. Hsu offers her own thoughts on how she came to American history and the future of the field.
Madeline Hsu is professor of history at UT Austin, and former director of the Center for Asian American Studies. Her first monograph, Dreaming of Gold, Dreaming of Home: Transnationalism and Migration Between the United States and South China, 1882-1943 (Stanford University Press, 2000) received the 2002 Association for Asian American Studies History Book Award. Her second monograph The Good Immigrants: How the Yellow Peril Became the Model Minority was published in 2015 by Princeton University Press and has won the 2016 Robert H. Ferrell Book Prize; the 2015 Theodore J. Saloutos Book Award; the 2014-2015 Asian Pacific American Librarians Association Adult Non-Fiction Honor Book, and the 2015 Chinese American Librarians Association Award for non-fiction.
Why do you study modern American history and not something else?
Actually, I am trained in Chinese history with a subfield in US immigration. I have "migrated" intellectually because my research projects are transnational in scope as I track the pathways of the Chinese Americans who are the focus of interests in migration as a human experience. In this field, it is vital to integrate a deep understanding of the local into global processes—hence my immersion into U.S. sources related to immigration and now international history. Most immigration historians, regardless of historical period, are deeply concerned with policy issues, an issue that has become even more pressing with heightened politicization of immigration and immigrants politically. My most recent projects are concerned with the Cold War as an era that I think is insufficiently understood and yet foregrounded many conditions for migration in the 21st century.
What are some of the challenges facing the field today? In what new directions might the field go?
Although it has always factored into various political positions and assertions, the teaching of history has become increasingly subject to politicized interference and reduction of resources of access. Our profession has to cope with systemic challenges to what is taught in classrooms, what kinds of analytical and interpretive models are taught, and training students with critical thinking skills. At the same time, technologies have vastly expanded our capacities to democratize access to information and resources. In addition, as a profession, historians must be more acknowledging of and proactive how history is not simply the study of "the past" but a powerful political agent with high levels of relevance for contemporary events and conditions. Working in Texas, I have first-hand experience of how politically-driven educational "reforms" have undermined K-12 educational access and curriculum, and are threatening educational integrity at the level of higher education.
If you could have been present in any "room where it happened," what would you have witnessed?
Between 1954 and 1956, the U.S. consulate in Hong Kong was juggling competing priorities in processing Chinese applications for immigration to the US. Many did so as close relatives of U.S. citizens, under the shadow of the fraudulent paper son immigration schemes, while a newer influx did so as refugees under the 1953 Refugee Relief Program which was intended to demonstrate US concern for political allies around the world. Consular staff struggled to maintain vigilant, even paranoic, scrutiny over the family reunification applications which drew upon decades of illegal immigration and was seen as a potential channel for communist spies, even as they bent over backwards to admit political refugees—particularly those with compelling life stories which could be used to publicize US international, cross-racial alliances.
These conditions highlight the ways in which inequalities in legal immigration and citizenship were increasingly implemented through the administrative handling of immigration cases, which serves to obscure racial preferences and profiling practices. This attention to institutions for immigration control highlights contemporary realities of inequitable access to mobility and legal settlement.
