|The CORNISH project is the highest resolution radio continuum survey of the Galactic plane to date. It is the 5 GHz radio continuum part of a series of multi-wavelength surveys that focus on the northern GLIMPSE region (10° < l < 65°), observed by the Spitzer satellite in the mid-infrared. Observations with the Very Large Array in B and BnA configurations have yielded a 1.″5 resolution Stokes I map with a root mean square noise level better than 0.4 mJy beam-1. Here we describe the data-processing methods and data characteristics, and present a new, uniform catalog of compact radio emission. This includes an implementation of automatic deconvolution that provides much more reliable imaging than standard CLEANing. A rigorous investigation of the noise characteristics and reliability of source detection has been carried out. We show that the survey is optimized to detect emission on size scales up to 14″ and for unresolved sources the catalog is more than 90% complete at a flux density of 3.9 mJy. We have detected 3062 sources above a 7σ detection limit and present their ensemble properties. The catalog is highly reliable away from regions containing poorly sampled extended emission, which comprise less than 2% of the survey area. Imaging problems have been mitigated by down-weighting the shortest spacings and potential artifacts flagged via a rigorous manual inspection with reference to the Spitzer infrared data. We present images of the most common source types found: H II regions, planetary nebulae, and radio galaxies. The CORNISH data and catalog are available online at http://cornish.leeds.ac.uk. © 2013.

Call to Order: PresidentTom Heinrich called the meeting to order.
Devotions: Tom Heinrich read opening devotions that were prepared by Mary Gilleshammer relating to inviting all into a relationship with Jesus.

Reports of Officers:
Treasurer's Report: November receipts nearly $12,000 below budget. Disbursements were almost $26,000 over receipts. Nearly half of the overage in receipts were due to payment for Pastor Chad's move that was covered by the I'm In funds. The Building/Mortgage Fund was $855 below what is needed for the month. So the remaining funds from the Contingency Fund of $1,000 were transferred to the Building/Mortgage Fund.
A motion was made to accept the Treasurer's Report by Chuck Krych and seconded by Marian Hutchens. Motion approved.

On Tuesday, November 15, 2011 Thrivent for Lutherans planned a program entitled "Life Events" unfortunately no members attended.
Pastor's Report:
Pastor Chad: Pastor Chad submitted a written report which will be attached to the official minutes. In summary Pastor Chad reported that his second full month of ministry at Prince of Peace has been full and rewarding. He has continued to attend as many of the ministry and committee team meetings as possible, both to provide input and also as a great way to get to know people. He is looking into the possibility of creating other opportunities for him to spend some quality time with members of the congregation in small group settings. He is thinking about a series of "fireside chats" maybe early in 2012 with some dessert and coffee on Sunday nights where he could spend some time with members in a small group setting.
He is pleased with the positive energy and feedback he has been getting related to the worship experience on Sunday mornings. He is looking forward to the Christmas Eve services as an opportunity to celebrate the presence of Christ among us in a way that moves us forward filled with enthusiasm as we approach a new year of mission and ministry.
He has been spending considerable time developing a vision for filling out our vacant staff positions as well as redefining some of our current staffing configuration to support the mission of our congregation.
Pastor Jim: Pastor Jim submitted a written report which will be attached to the official minutes. In summary Pastor Jim has started two adult Bible studies this month. On Monday nights he has been doing a "No Experience Necessary" class focusing on ways that God wants us as partners in our everyday life to be in mission. The Wednesday evening class "Readers Digest Version of the Bible" will meet for one more week. It has had a smaller attendance of 7 people.
He is looking at two or three more studies for the future. One on forgiveness during Lent and another on "Being a Good Samaritan" Pastor Jim has also been approached to partner with Dan Ficken for a study called "Love Wins"
Pastor Hal: Pastor Hal reported that the Stewardship Committee has met and is generally pleased with this year's program that provided a great message and thanked the lay speakers for their solid and well planned messages. Follow-up letters will be sent.
Pastor Hal reported that he would no longer be heading the Giving Ministries. He is turning this over to Pastor Chad. Pastor Hal reported that he was pleased that our new Senior Pastor would be leading the Stewardship Committee and stated that this is a testament to Pastor Chad's interest in the wellbeing of the Church. The Council thanked Pastor Hal for his service to Prince of Peace and wished him the very best in the future. Pastor Hal will remain involved in the Giving Ministries of Prince of Peace as a member of the congregation.
Staff Report: Katie Rykal the Director of Children and Family Ministry submitted a written report that will be attached to the official minutes. In summary she reported; this year there are 235 kids in Sunday School. The Christmas Program, A Piece of Christmas was a lot of work, but also a lot of fun. There has been great feedback on the program. This year the PreK-K classes have learned the stories of Joseph and Moses, as well as had an Advent Celebration. The 1st-6th have done their Catechism Studies (each grade covered a different topic) and learned the story of Moses. The Sunday School offering has been good this year (better than previous years).

Executive Team: No Report
Spiritual Development: No Report

I let the cat out of the bag this weekend on Twitter that I won't be livestreaming New York Fashion Week this year.
Honestly, it's heartbreaking.
I've worked really hard to stay on the cutting edge of coverage for the event so that I could hopefully expand my reach and show people the reality inside the tents.
When I began this endeavor with Julia in 2007, I was the only one posting blurry iphone pics live from the front row so our readers could feel like they were sitting with us. We had a great approach: I posted the shots live and she snapped clear pictures with her Canon to post that night. Soon, other bloggers and publications picked up on the concept, so I knew I had to find another angle.
When the Nokia N95 came out with live streaming capabilities, I attempted to use it to catch a few seconds of the models on the catwalk. Unfortunately, cell service and wifi in the tents was minimal so I reverted back to still shots.
In early 2008, Livestream was testing a unit called LiveU that harnessed 8 cellular networks so if say AT&T failed, they could jump to Verizon seamlessly. Our first attempt wasn't successful because the unit was too fragile to be totally mobile.
For the Spring/Summer 2010 shows (which was in September of 2009), Otto and I finally pulled it together to offer the world (not that they were all watching) the first continuous coverage of NYFW. We didn't turn off the camera between shows, we just kept rolling so you could see EVERYTHING as it happened in 4 hour chunks (on average). It was truly a unique experience if only because of the technology and exposure we were bringing to fashion. Think about it. What other coverage have you seen that was truly uncensored?
Last season in February, we had the process down, the image quality improved, and added scheduling and audience interaction via chat and twitter. Plus, I let viewers in on how I navigated the event, including passes for backstage, dealing with angry publicists, and sitting front row. It wasn't always pretty, but it was real. And I was able to answer questions as you wrote them in.
The Huffington Post embedded our feed permanently on the top of their fashion page, and it was open for any other outlet to do the same. Trust me when I tell you, NO ONE else offered this coverage. Mostly because the technology was expensive and exclusive to Livestream.
For some shows, we had over 500 people viewing live and interacting with me. We truly felt like it was a success.
All of that being said, I was unable to secure a sponsor the coverage this September. We did it last year for free to prove it worked and could get an audience. At this point, the continuous, uncensored stream (as in not only shooting the show but keeping the camera on for everything in between), is still unique. No one else is doing it. This opportunity would give brands a new and entertaining way to engage with their customers, offer them something that interests them, and reach out to new potential customers. And. AND! The integration is more dynamic and cheaper than tv ads, not to mention the ROI is more quantifiable.
I can't explain it. I don't understand it. I've gotten over being upset, but I do count this journey as a unsuccessful. Valiant and courageous, but unsuccessful when I assess my goals. I tried and did not succeed at establishing the value for this coverage.
So for those of you who did enjoy the stream in February and were looking forward to seeing the action live at NYFW's new home in Lincoln Center, I apologize for not having the means to bring it to you.
This ends a pretty big chapter in my life. I have to say I would love to attend a show just to enjoy the clothes, but I know I would grab for my phone without hesitation to snap a pic and share it with you. Our NYFW dynamic has been truly satisfying for me. Your comments and feedback showed me you enjoyed it too. Thanks for coming along with me.Tweet this!

(Adds background on Direct Line)
By Pamela Barbaglia and Anjuli Davies
LONDON, July 11 (Reuters) - British insurer Direct Line is in advanced talks with several industry players to sell its operations in Germany and Italy, two sources close to the deal said.
At least four suitors have submitted non-binding bids for both of the units, which sell motor insurance through the Direct Line brand, said one of the sources who cannot be named because the talks are private.
The combined value of Direct Line's German and Italian business stands at around $500 million, said the second source.
Goldman Sachs has been hired as an adviser to Direct Line. The sale will involve another round of binding bids before a final buyer is selected in late September, the sources said.
Direct Line, which has a market capitalisation of 4.13 billion pounds ($7.03 billion), was not available for immediate comment. Goldman Sachs declined to comment.
Deal activity in the insurance sector has ramped up this year, helped by the stock market listing of Dutch insurer NN Group, Europe's biggest initial public offering (IPO) of 2014.
A sale of its Italian and German businesses would leave Direct Line with a presence only in Britain.
The company, whose brands also include Churchill, Privilege and the Green Flag roadside recovery service, was spun off from Royal Bank of Scotland in an IPO last year.
The company gets more than 40 percent of its revenue from motor insurance and about 25 percent from home insurance. It also offers travel and pet cover.
Direct Line, which has been active in Germany and Italy for more than 10 years, increased its overall annual group pretax profit to 424 million pounds in 2013 from 249 million pounds in 2012.

Repurposing Our Lives
Are we repurposing our life?
Or do we feel like we are useful for only one thing?
There are only so more days left when I can snuggle on the couch with my children in the morning. The day is coming when my son no longer looks at me and says, "Daddy can we do something together?" Even more realistic is how I have learned to tell my daughter she looks so pretty and at ANY given moment nothing is more important than stopping to help my 3 year old to put on his shoes. And so it is …….I still am finding ways to "RE-PURPOSE" my life at all times.
Believe it or not, this is not a blog about practicing, or creativity, or even the arts. In fact it is something that I have been thinking about writing for several months now. Recently I have seen an amazing trend for reinventing things in ways that they get "repurposed" for another use. From making furniture out of wood pallets to people living in amazing homes built from old box cars. These unique risks that are taken to find an alternative purpose for something amazes me!
So I began asking the question Why do so many people find their lives paved in stone for them? I mean this happens as early on as the age of 7. Can you believe that! Having one thing that we are supposed to be or do or feel as early as the 2nd grade. We are told we won't change or that we are developed and DONE developing. Nah….. that just can not be right? Well, unfortunately here are a few examples:
- THE MEDIA So much of the media is painting a gloomy its all over just throw it way and be done with it picture. I see this from signs on the road side that say DIVORCE for $200 to well almost everything on the news. I mean why should someone continue to want to be a journalist these days when the goal is to get a negative reaction from someone? The Media though at times does repurpose itself in a time of true humanistic need. However, this is not their main purpose. It just seems more of an effort for ratings.
- Children are taught that being busy is their purpose. Remember when you would just leave your house early in the morning on your bike and ride and ride until it was dinner time? You knew coming home for dinner was what you needed to do or mom or dad came looking for you and revoked your freedom of riding your bike in the wide open space of a safe neighborhood. Today, children are busier than ever with their social and extra activities and being told they need to be prepared for the 21st century in Kindergarten! When did elementary school turn into "not-so elementary?"
- The act of being "out of the box" is too often thought of as a mental illness. I have been involved in so many conversations where the person with exciting and new ideas that are fresh and innovative just get ignored. This is mostly attributed to fear of taking risks and the ego of the rest of the room taking charge and stomping all over any kind of creative thought. In these situations I find myself hearing a few things 1) The Rocky Theme 2) No risk No reward. 3) Oh — and recently I SING the song "say something" by great big world. MAN that is a good one!
- Being miserable is someone else's fault I simply have found that it is great to follow your heart but only if you take your brain with you! All of us have taken some kind of risk in our lives and failed. It is hard for us though to own up to it and redirect ourselves to take another risk. Instead, we say things like "That was my bosses fault" or "A colleague or MY DAD did that to me."
Living in the Past is FEAR – Living in the Future is ANXIETY– But living in the Moment is PEACE.
Repurposing is about finding things that are curveballs in my life that make me dance or make me feel filled up! Taking risks are simple….. if we practice taking them or better yet practice rebounding from the failure that we may experience. I know …… this is easier said than done.
Repurposing at it's finest is when you cannot predict it!
- I love landing on that pinterest page (yes I love pinterest and I am not ashamed:) where I see someone use something in a way I never would have thought of.
- I Love when one of my friends that I think I know so well shows me how he rebuilt a car from nothing when all I thought was that he was a music teacher.
- I Love when I find out that a mother of 4 is capable of running a fortune 500 company from a laptop.
- I Love seeing someone who I think never cares for anything or anyone reach out in a way that makes me cry.
- I Love seeing a group of mountain men brothers completely have no fear on the dance floor.
- I Love listening to someone tell their story and the entire time I am thinking 'yeah me too."
- I love being wrong because being wrong is a form of repurposing our lives at the highest level.
I truly believe that the act of repurposing our lives is a gift that is given to us by simply having courage to try again. Or to look at something with a different perspective…… or to simply watch a sun set or NEVER stop noticing the breeze.

This is BRILLIANT, Kurry! Just the medicine of mind I have been needing for such a long time (and didn't know where to look!). I'd love to get together for some collaboration sometime, be it artistically or purposefully. I would love to know more about your Purpose On message (which is what brought me to the site today in the first place). Great job!
kurry – (cue The Phantom of the Opera music) You are simply awesome. I have always admired your ability to get the most out of a situation (practice session, musical analysis, steel and, fatherhood) but this post is so spot on that it should be required reading. Thank you for a great morning read and for taking the time to validate creativity not only in music, but in life! And, the fact that you are still using the word "purpose" makes my brain smile out loud!


text: bbowens 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2007 Hi, I've been experimenting with an omnidirectional boundary mic (PZM) so I can record meetings directly to my laptop. The mic I've tried is from Radio Shack (33-3041), but it doesn't appear to be compatible. It has a 1/8" mono jack, and it works fine with a cassette recorder, but not with the laptop. I've tried a usb preamp device (iMic from Griffin Technology) but that setup is not working either; I've also tried a mono-to-stereo adapter, with no luck. A lapel-type mic is working fine with all these components (it has a stereo jack). So, I know that all the individual pieces are working, I just can't figure out how to make them work together (PZM to Laptop). I've been told that Crown's Sound Grabber II is made for this type of application, but since it also has a mono jack, I'm hesitant to invest in another similar mic. Can someone set me straight on what I'm trying to do? thanks, brad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Injury #2 happened when I was in high school. So, I lasted pretty good from 2nd grade all the way to being a sophomore in high school. That seems to be about 8 years. Now, i'm not including like the really, really low impact injuries. My friend Ed (who owns http://www.akronautotowing.com) says those injuries should count too. I told him it would be too much to write, haha.
Some of those like sprained ankles, hurt fingers, head injuries, you know, the low impact stuff. Actually, just thinking about it, i did get stitches too. I don't remember when it was, but it didn't feel good.
We, my family, were at my aunt's house. They live about a mile away so it was like we were always down there. My brothers and I had bikes, so half the time we would just get on our bikes and ride down there. We always liked to play outside so it was cool. Down by their house they had a crick which ran by a field we had. Then it curved around and ran under the road. What was cool is that it had like two big tunnels for under the road. We were always looking for snakes and running back and forth. The crick wasn't that deep and only one tunnel had any water in it. Actually now I think it might be a little higher than it used to be.
So anyways, back to the story. Down on the bank of the crick were about 1000 bricks. It used to be like an old brick maker location. We would grab the bricks and throw them in the crick. Yes, there was no nintendo, xbox, or playstation at this time so that is what us country folk did. Then it happened, I went down to grab a few bricks and my brother tossed one right on my head. I really have no clue why he threw it or what I was doing down there but that sucker drilled me right on the head. Blood started gushing and I had to go to the ER to get some stitches. It really didn't hurt, I have a feeling it was a small little rock, otherwise it would have really made me bleed!
Guess next update will have to be about my high school update!

January 16, 2013, 12:01 PM ESTLaw360, New York (January 16, 2013, 12:01 PM EST) -- The False Claims Act has been the government's primary fraud enforcement and recovery tool since the statute was substantially broadened in 1986. Each passing year has seen ever increasing recoveries, and 2012 was no different. Indeed, at the close of the 2012 government fiscal year, the United States had recovered some $4.9 billion in settlements and judgments, which included a number of single recoveries in excess of $1 billion each. A recap of some of the significant judicial decisions from 2012 illustrates that this trend will...

Pirates want to put emphasis on their defense
By GREG AUMAN, Times Staff Writer
DADE CITY -- In football the prevailing logic is that offense wins games and defense wins titles.
Pasco will test the theorem on the baseball field this season: A year after dominating locally with a stacked lineup but losing in the first round of the playoffs, the Pirates will try again, this time relying on three quality pitchers.
The county's top three hitters have graduated, but Pasco has lefties Chris Nyman and Matt Prowant and right-hander Matt Smith, perhaps three of the county's top five pitchers. And if the bats come together, Pasco could repeat as conference champion.
"This is the best staff we've had," said 10th-year coach Ricky Giles, more confident entering this season than he was before last year's 23-6 campaign. "I think we're better off right now. I think we'll play better defense, and the pitching is smarter, so now I think we can hold people down."
The three pitchers went a combined 20-4 last season with more than 200 strikeouts and could improve on those numbers. Smith has signed with Saint Leo, and Nyman and Prowant aren't far behind.
Nyman, whose 104 strikeouts ranked second in the county last season, throws a little bit of everything, with a nice breaking ball, good mix of speeds and the occasional knuckler.
Prowant, who will bat second and carried a .427 batting average last season, the county's top returning mark, has a strong curve to go with his fastball. He'll also play center, showing good range after four seasons with the Pirates soccer team. Smith, who will play shortstop when he's not pitching, might have the best arm of the lot with a fastball that reaches 88-89 mph.
"They're ready," Giles said. "We just have to get some hits now."
That wasn't a problem last season, when the Pirates scored so many runs they had seven players with 19 or more RBIs. Lee Cruz, Anton Standifer and Orlando Rosales, who combined for 122 hits as seniors, will be sorely missed, but Giles is working in a new cast atop the lineup.
Second baseman Sonny Glover, a transfer from private school who played for Wesley Chapel as a freshman, will lead off. Nyman and catcher Juan Lopez, who drove in 28 runs last season, will hit in the 3-4 slots. Even the bottom of the lineup should be strong, with Smith likely batting ninth, giving Giles a preleadoff hitter with speed.
Giles also finds encouragement in an improved defense, which he said could be the difference for the Pirates, who committed two errors in the final inning of their district championship loss to Bartow.
"We had all the bats, but we were error-prone," Giles said. "That took us out of a lot of things, and now ... we can come into a close ballgame and stay in it."

Election Day is Tuesday, November 8th – just over a month away. Here's a comparison of where the two major candidates stand on the issues, produced by a Christian organization that studies the publicly-available information:
Faith and Freedom Coalition 2016 Voter Guide
[Editorial note, November 22, 2016: This voter guide is no longer being maintained, so I had to disable the link.]
Since babies in the womb are not eligible to vote, and since the Bible tells us to look out not merely for our own interests but for the interests of others (Philippians 2:3-4), especially when they are weaker than we are (Romans 15:1), I can't help my attention being drawn to the issue that is listed first on this voter guide: abortion.
Personally, I wish we had two other people from whom to choose the next president…but we don't. Nevertheless, it is clear to me that one of these two people, especially when Supreme Court appointments are taken into consideration, will surely keep children in the womb vulnerable to legal abortion-on-demand for the next 30-40 years. The other might not. Therefore, it's clear to me for whom I should vote – if I follow Jesus' instructions to put first the interest of those weaker than myself.

Dealer Selection Receive your free dealer pricing information by completing your contact information! Let this serve as notice that the Detroit Three are not unique in their propensity for bad timing. Toyota fails here, too. The long-awaited, long-overdue real full-size Tundra pickup launched just as the housing market was putting the kibosh on full-size pickup sales. The Sequoia launches a year later, having been developed when full-size, truck-based SUV sales were beginning to slide from 800,000 per year to 500,000 per year (Toyota's numbers).If you think of Toyota as being smug, though (an image that the Prius and its owners foster), well, then the World's Most Fantastic Number One automaker can continue to be smug. The Tundra is meeting Toyota's conservative sales projections. Toyota says it hopes the new Sequoia can claw its way back to a peak of about 65,000 sales per year, roughly twice calendar year '06 numbers, and that seems reasonable, even in the current market.Like Tundra, Sequoia is vastly improved and should grab a larger share of its shrinking segment. Tundra's aluminum 5.7-liter V-8 is optional on SR5 and Limited and standard on the new Lexus-like Platinum. The old 4.7 iron block remains the base engine until a new smaller V-8 derivative of the 5.7 is ready.Tundra's familiar dash makes it into the Sequoia, but the horse-collar grille is toned down a bit, as if to say, "I'm not really so massive." The dash is still disappointing in its plastic-ness, and looks better in photos than in the flesh. But the days of making an SUV by slapping a station wagon body onto a pickup truck are long gone, and here, Toyota doesn't disappoint. The Sequoia gets an independent rear suspension, replacing the old Sequoia's live rear axle, and re-tuned steering. The steering is "for females," and that's according to chief engineer Motoharu Araya, so direct your emails about male chauvinism elsewhere. Toyota boasts a 39-foot turning diameter, which happens to equal that of the Chevy Tahoe and GMC Yukon.As for the IRS, which the Ford Expedition has but the Tahoe doesn't, it gives the Sequoia two advantages over the Tahoe; a low, fold-flat cargo area and better third-row space. It's good enough for average-sized adults on short trips, but not as good as third-row space in the new breed of large, crossover SUVs, most notably Saturn Outlook and GMC Acadia. Those crossovers can't match the Sequoia's 10,000-pound towing capacity, though.A false floor under the third row serves as cubby space. And Limited and Platinum trim levels have a standard power folding/reclining third row. The Platinum is a new variant, with a Lexus-like list of features, including P275/55R-20 tires on alloys, heated second-row bucket seats, power memory package, heated and cooled front driver and passenger seats, navigation system with backup camera and 14-speaker JBL hi-fi, sunroof, headlamp cleaners and adjustable suspension.Toyota expects the Sequoia Platinum to take 10 percent of the mix, with 55-percent of buyers choosing the base SR5 and 35-percent choosing the well equipped Limited variant.All Sequoias get a fully boxed frame, six-speed automatic with tow-haul shift mode (five-speed automatic with the 4.7) and an aluminum driveshaft. The optional multi-mode four-wheel-drive system includes a torque-sensing limited slip differential and it's operated via a rotary control on the dash.On the road, nothing negative or positive makes it stand out much versus the class-leading Tahoe. Ride is cushy for comfort and confidence, not handling. The feminine steering and carlike turning radius has its psychological effects; Sequoia feels smaller than Tundra, and than it is, except in its fuel economy. That's where bad timing can really hurt. 2008 Toyota Sequoia Base Price $34,000 (est.)

ATLANTA - Hispanics in various parts of Georgia used Friday to voice their opposition to legislation that would clamp down on their access to tax-paid state services and to demonstrate their contributions to the state economy.
A work stoppage was called by Alianza 17 de Marzo de Georgia, or The March 17 Alliance, a coalition of religious, civic, business, political and other Latino community groups, dubbing the event a "Day of Dignity." The alliance asked Latinos to stay out of work and not to buy anything to make their economic impact felt.
"It was way beyond what we expected because of the short time we had to organize it," said spokesman Julian Herrera. He estimated 80,000 Hispanics participated, and a few sympathetic non-Hispanics.
Organizers spread the word through Spanish-language newspapers and radio stations. They timed it for a day after the House passed its version of Senate Bill 529. While many stayed home, others decided to be more visible.
A crowd of more than 100 people showed up outside the state Capitol, chanting "529 Đ. It's not right," and "We want justice."
The legislation, which passed the House on Thursday and the Senate earlier this month, would prohibit adults from getting most state services except for emergency medical treatment or prenatal care. It also would require police to verify the nationality of anyone jailed for a felony or drunken-driving charges. Plus, it would penalize employers who knowingly hire them.
It would not keep the children of illegal immigrants from attending school. Nor would it empower local police officers to conduct raids, rounding up suspected aliens, despite the rumors that generated much of the interest in Friday's protest.
Now the House and Senate must work out differences between the two versions of the bill before sending it to Gov. Sonny Perdue for his signature.
Carlos Esquer, a warehouse supervisor in Norcross, called the legislation "cruel and inhumane."
"A large percentage of these people are people that really want to be doing honest work," said Esquer, an illegal immigrant from Mexico who moved to Georgia in 1997.
Rep. Pedro Marin, D-Duluth, one of three Latino legislators, and other Hispanic civic leaders urged political activity instead. Groups like the Georgia Association of Latino Elected Officials, GALEO, asked Hispanics to call and write Perdue and legislators.
Perdue's office got a heavy volume of calls Friday, but his staff would only tell callers the governor hasn't announced if he will sign the legislation or not.
Around the state, many Hispanic-owned stores closed. But some stores with Hispanic-sounding names that are owned by non-Hispanics didn't close, giving the appearance of disunity.
In Southeast Georgia, however, it was business as usual. Suleiman Solomon, the owner of Adam's Market in an increasingly Hispanic neighborhood in Brunswick's South End, said business was about normal for a Friday payday. People were coming in, cashing their paychecks and handing some of the cash right back for Mexican long-distance calling cards.
On the other hand, in the Athens area where the number of Hispanics is greater, more were seen in solidarity with the Day of Dignity. More than 20 employees from two local Mexican restaurants mixed it up Friday afternoon in a spirited game of soccer.
Rafael Aragon, a Guatemalan-American who manages one of the LaCazuela shops that closed for the day showed up for work. Yet, he said he felt solidarity with those who observed the Day of Dignity.
"I feel it's unfair (legislators) are picking just on the Hispanics," he said. "Everybody in this country comes from somewhere else. They didn't do it to the Irish or the Italians when they came."

On Friday, I talked about my affection for Pinterest inspired menu planning. Today, I am taking on one of my least favorite part of the Pinterest experience– the Thinspo motivation. Not familiar with Thinspo? It's short for Thin inspiration and while I am all for Healthspo (health inspiration; a term I just coined at this moment), Thinspo and Healthspo are not the same thing. Mostly, I've escaped seeing the Thinspo-related stuff, because Pinterest is a playground for me and I don't really feel like getting Professional Rosie all fired up while I am playing in my creative playground. I don't search it out and the folks I follow aren't looking for Thinspiration. Anyway, the other night, I came across this pinned Kate Moss photo and quote from a Women's Wear Daily interview years ago, and, well, I decided that I just had to share these thoughts because I happen to think that the message isn't just irresponsible; it's dangerous. Here we go.
~ ~~
Oh, Kate. Sit down, honey. Have a Krispy Kreme doughnut. Or a salad. Or something. Anything that will keep you quiet for a minute and let you focus on what I am going to say. Asked by Women's Wear Daily what sayings she keeps in the forefront of her mind to help her achieve success, Kate Moss, the supermodel with many an extra career available for the list, shared this nugget, "Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels."
Cue the guttural sound that escaped my lips when I first read this 'news.'
"Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels" is just the sort of mantra that women in leg warmers and side ponytails taped to their refrigerators in the 1980s. And it is just the kind of mantra that did no one any good. Something that pithy doesn't remind you at your core who you are. It doesn't inspire you to be your best self. It doesn't bring you calm in the storm. It simply taunts you, makes you feel less than, wondering when and how and if you can ever reach the promised, undefined land of skinny. You can get here, it seems to tell us, as long as you taste nothing.
And we've had just about enough of that kind of message, don't you think? Today, one out of every 100 women is anorexic. Eighty percent of American women are dissatisfied with their appearance. Seventy-four percent of all girls – yes, even elementary school girls- say they feel pressure to please everyone. And, yet, this promising insight: 65% of women say that if they could go back in time, they wouldn't make themselves any skinnier. They would change the way they felt about themselves. And that is exactly the choice that we can make today.
Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels, Moss might say. But isn't life itself about tasting? Not just food or drink, but adventure and promise and hope and whimsy and joy. Isn't taste really just a metaphor for experiencing, for doing, for feeling? Doesn't taste go beyond just being to feeling?
And when we taste life, when we have adventures and experience hope, promise, whimsy, joy, and, yes, even pain, when we challenge ourselves, when we improve, when we face our fears, isn't that really when we grow, when we become our best selves, when we shine? When we engage in something bigger than ourselves and our reflection, don't we begin to change the way we think and feel about ourselves? And isn't the promise of that shining moment— the one that should be at the forefront of our mind as we set out to achieve the success of our imagining?
It's a new year. People have made resolutions that they are in the throws of keeping or breaking. Maybe you resolved to have this be the year that your collarbone rivals Kate Moss's in its angles, maybe with that thinness you think you'll finally be happy. But, here's the truth. Achieving happiness is not about standing in front of the bathroom mirror assessing your collarbone. It is about stepping away from the bathroom mirror and into a life that is so expansive and meaningful that you recognize that the length of your hair, the width of your nose, the curve of your calves are not that significant in the grander scheme of things. Changing your mind so you begin to understand that what matters is how you engage the world, not the way you look doing it, is one of the most important things you can do on your quest to personal and even professional success. Turn a deaf ear to advice that will only make you feel less than, and, instead, step into the life of your imagining. Nothing looks as good as confidence feels.

Park Co. prepares for rising Yellowstone River
LIVINGSTON, Mont. - The city manager in Livingston has declared a State of Emergency because of the potential flooding of the Yellowstone River, according to the city's Facebook page. On Wednesday, we found Park County disaster and emergency crews working with several agencies to sandbag property near the Yellowstone River, off Island Drive. Greg Coleman with Park County Disaster and Emergency Services says it's a good idea to stock up on sandbags as water levels continue to rise. He also has a warning for curious people passing by. "Our biggest public safety concern right now are people coming to see the high water in the river. They don't understand or realize that the current can undercut the bank and destabilize it. There is also critter dens, and other thing that can create an unsafe situation where the bank can give way at anytime," said Coleman. Wednesday afternoon we were told the Park County Public Works director was also coming to assess the property along the river, to see if any added measures were needed.

text: I was so happy to join the Carly club before my Carly arrived. My husband bought me a Large Chocolate Cotton Carly for my bday off eBay. It was supposed to be brand new & with tags.Well it arrived the tag looked like it had been threw the mill ,but it was attached with a small zap strap.Not the one's Coach use. The bag was badly soiled from a lot of use.I was on the phone asap, she swore that the bag wasn't used because the tag was still on it. She refunded the money - the postage after i send it back my cost. So it cost us about$48.00 in postage......... So ladies be careful buying from e-bay.......After seeing how dirty the Cotton can get, I ordered the Large Carly in khaki & saddle from the coach store in Lynnwood Wa..We are going down this weekend to get it. The Vancouver coach store's are sold out......The bag itself was so nice I loved the size it hung so nice on my shoulder. Thanks for letting me vent..........Joanne

The Portland athletic giant got its start making running shoes. A waffle iron and billions of dollars later, Nike is the worldwide leader in making, marketing, and selling running shoes (among other athletic products). In fact, the current CEO of Nike got his start designing Nike's most popular running shoe: the Air Zoom Pegasus. Over the years, Nike has continued to perfect its popular running line, developing shoes for every stride, every budget, and every style.
Neutral runners tend to have their arches ever so slightly collapse inward when they run. Their arches are neither flat nor high, but somewhere in between. They require neither stability nor much cushion. What these neutral runners do need, however, is a shoe designed for them. They key is a lack of medial support on neutral running shoes: with such support, neutral runners would be pushed too far outward, leading to injuries. Luckily, every major running brand makes (at least a few) neutral shoes, which can be used from the track to the trail.
Reviewers say the best thing about this shoe is:
Reviewers rate this shoe as being helpful for those with runner's knee/patellar tendinitis and shin splints.

Yes. Though I don't like the model's expression- it's kind of deer in the headlights, I like almost everything else about it. The model's lingerie outfit is sexy, nice warm color scheme, and lovely background, model's body looks amazing as does her hair. Pose is decent- a little arch of the back would've made it even better.

Abso-freaking-lutely! The lighting, the movement, the emotion, the models, the styling... It all comes together to create an amazing capture. Plus, you've got this all happening on an iconic Manhattan street- Makes for a great backdrop. The models are simply lovely- I love the look of the male model and that muscled upper body. The female model is posed beautifully and I love the black wrap flowing from her arm. Both have very emotive expressions too. Inspired!

I would say maybe. The image isn't of very high quality, but you have a lovely look. I really like those high cheekbones, milky smooth skin, pale brown hair with those dark eyes. There's a sense of mystery and intrigue in them, though the expression could be more engaged.

Maybe. The expression is a little harsh and the body language/ pose is a little stiff especially in the arms. The pose of your body is decent.

Excellent Service Award
Excellent Service Award
Over the 20 years that we have been operating as a surf school in North Devon, one of the things that we are most proud of is the family atmosphere that we have been able to create with all our employees and coaches. Over the last decade, we have established a core group of senior instructors that have been overseeing our operations at both our Croyde and Saunton surf centers.
With the experience our senior coaches have gained over the years coaching both here and abroad, we have been able to become a training center for Surfing GB and the RLSS. This has allowed us to train all our new instructors to the highest standards and allow us to retain a high percentage of coaches each season who are highly qualified and experienced at teaching surfing.
Over the last few years we have started to receive more and more reviews on Trip Advisor from Customers that have had surf lessons with us. It is always great to receive feedback about the service and experience we provide. We really appreciate everyone taking the time to post comments on the site. We were absolutely delighted to recently receive a certificate of excellence from Trip Advisor, which is awarded for consistently receiving positive reviews on the site.
We are so stoked to receive this recognition and can't wait to continue to strive to achieve the highest standards for all our customers that come surfing with us both in the UK and abroad in the future.

Anyone in the UK who wants to get Cameron to climb down over the infamous pasty tax? Here's the Sun's petition, halfway down this article:http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/ne … 228682.ece
I wonder how much of that pasty Boy George threw in the bin - he doesn't look too impressed with it! Maybe it was made 5 years ago on Leeds Station like the imaginary one that Call Me Dave supposedly ate
A virtual pasty, perhaps?
In my Marie Antoinette mode "Let them eat pasties!" Tax the whole lot of them! In fact double tax on them!PS In case you think I've gone mad- I am allergic to them!!
There never seems to be any suggestions to tax mung beans or organic goat's cheese
I think that's cos no one eats them!
You've never lived in Islington!
That's true, its all pork pies and mushy peas up here !
You're lucky! The one thing that is really hard to get in the London area is good fish and chips, and around here in the hinterland it is all chicken take aways that make KFC look classy!
When I lived and worked in London back in the 80s, there was this fantastic fish & chip cafe on Theobalds Road in Holborn. It served the best fish & chips I have ever tasted, and was run by Italians. I and my colleagues used to go there on Friday lunchtime and stagger back to the office. Not much work got done at my office on Friday afternoons

Brain Teasers
What Happened?
Fun: (3.09) Difficulty: (1.94) Puzzle ID: #26682
Submitted By: fishmed
Submitted By: fishmed
Situation Situation puzzles (sometimes called lateral thinking puzzles) are ones where you need to ask lots of yes or no questions to figure out what happened in the situation. These are good puzzles for groups where one person knows the puzzle and answers the questions.
Tom and his wife went to a local club to have dinner and see a show. They had been eating their meal and watching the show when Tom started losing voluntary control over most of his body. His legs, arms, back and chest became tense. His facial muscles squeezed upwards. His stomach muscles and diaphragm began to spasm. His heart began to race and his blood pressure rose quickly. Yet nobody did anything for him and no medical attention was given. Why not?
HintWhat kind of club was it?
Were others experiencing the same?
AnswerHe and his wife were at a comedy club and the symptoms are the description of what happens to someone who is laughing.
