Piquionne hopeful on fitness
West Ham striker Frederic Piquionne is determined to return from injury against Man Utd this weekend.
Last Updated: 28/03/11 5:06pm
West Ham striker Frederic Piquionne is determined to return from injury against Manchester United this weekend.
Piquionne sustained a foot problem during the FA Cup defeat to Stoke earlier this month and sat out the goalless draw at Tottenham.
However, he has not had to miss any more games due to the international break and hopes to put himself in contention for Saturday's clash with the Red Devils.
Having stepped up his recovery sessions in the gym, Piquionne is pleased with the improvement in his condition.
"I am recovering well," said the 32-year-old. "The physio and I are hoping this week I can train with the first team.
"My right toes were injured, it was really painful. It was a shame because I started the Stoke game slowly, but I was able to score.
"I needed to come off and it was a shame for the rest of the game. I think I could have scored again and we might have won the game."
Piquionne hopes to hit the ground running after an extended break, saying: "It has been good for me.
"I have two weeks to come back. I have extra time to prepare for the big game against Man Utd and I hope I can be back."
A four-game unbeaten run has seen Avram Grant's men climb out of the bottom three and Piquionne is confident the Hammers can pick up what would be a morale-boosting third straight home win against Manchester United.
"It is time to take points now because there are just eight games until the end of the season. We need to stay in the Premier League," he told West Ham TV.
"Confidence is high. In the Premier League we have had some good results against Stoke and Liverpool at home and we need to keep this confidence against Manchester United. Maybe we can win the game.
"The supporters are very good and we need them for the rest of the season. I hope we stay in the Premier League and the team will do the maximum for that.
"For that I need to stay cool to help my team and I need to train hard to get back into the team."

Foiled long ago in its plan to raise money by replacing its landmark community house with a 59-story office tower, St. Bartholomew's Episcopal Church on Park Avenue is now passing the plate among the very neighbors whose views would have been sliced by the skyscraper.
And the plate is coming back with hundreds of thousands of dollars in it.
Corporate neighbors to the north, south, east and west have all responded to St. Bartholomew's $30 million capital campaign. The goals are to repair the failing exterior mosaic tiles of its colorful dome, to fix faulty drains that have led to major water damage, to better light the sacred space, to restore the terrace, and to create a new entrance serving both the church and the adjoining community house, the future of which is secure.
The church is appealing for help to New York as a whole, arguing that its presence in Midtown — its cafe, its social services, its cultural programs, its artistic patrimony and the breathing room it creates in the canyon of Park Avenue — is a civic resource.
"We don't belong here, taking up space, unless we're open to the city and useful," said the Rev. William McD. Tully, the rector.
This approach contrasts with a bitter landmark battle in the 1980s and early '90s, when St. Bartholomew's sought to redevelop the community house site, saying that the income from leasing its land would further its ministry. The Landmarks Preservation Commission said no. The fight went to the Supreme Court, which refused to hear the church's constitutional challenge to its landmark designation.Continue reading the main story
The outcome was seen as a victory for historic preservation, but the episode drained and divided the congregation. And the church itself, between 50th and 51st Streets, suffered from years of inattention.
That is why the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation has given $1 million toward the restoration of the dome, on behalf of the Waldorf-Astoria, immediately to the south.
"If you don't fix it now, then it's going to be either extremely expensive to repair in the future or it could get to the point where you couldn't salvage what's there," said Steven M. Hilton, president and chief executive of the foundation.
Conceding that such a gift seemed to be outside the foundation's central humanitarian mission, Mr. Hilton nevertheless found a link.
"St. Bart's is more than a church," he said. "They serve something close to 80,000 meals a year to the homeless, and they have a 10-bed shelter. So you'd say, indirectly, the things St. Bart's is doing touch on one of our key interests."
Rudin Management Company, the owner of office buildings north and west of the church, recognizes St. Bartholomew's as an important institution and wants to be a "good neighbor," said John J. Gilbert III, the chief operating officer. He declined to specify the amount given.
From the opposite side of Park Avenue, contributions have also come from the Colgate-Palmolive Company, with headquarters at No. 300, and the Mutual of America Life Insurance Company, at No. 320. Most recently, the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation gave $200,000 to help restore the dome.
Mr. Tully arrived as rector in 1994, after the landmark debacle had played out. His first priority, he said, was to rebuild church membership. Attendance at Sunday services has increased to 800 or 900, he said, from 150 or so in the mid-90s.
Now, the rector is focused on rehabilitating the 1918 main church, designed by Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue, and the 1928 community house.
Murphy Burnham & Buttrick Architects prepared a master plan for the church in 2004 that identified about $100 million worth of needed work. Then the architects winnowed the menu down to the more urgent items.
Slightly more than $17 million has been raised since the capital campaign was announced in October, Mr. Tully said. Most of the money has come from within the parish. He added that St. Bartholomew's still had to struggle against its image as a wealthy congregation, earned during the days when Vanderbilts worshiped there. The current endowment, about $6 million, is one-third of what it was before the landmark fight, he said.
Mr. Tully said the opening of Café St. Bart's in 1995 — a year after contingency plans were developed to close the ailing church — drew employees from the companies that are now supporting the renovation. "The cafe, in a single stroke, projected to the street a sense of life," he said.
For the future, Mr. Tully envisions a place that would act as a forum for public debate and as a 24-hour-a-day sanctuary, for people of any faith or no faith. "If you can't get in anywhere else," he said, "there's some place you can always get in. And there's always a light on."Continue reading the main story

If we were to mention Kitsch fashion, you'd probably have no idea what we were talking about, unless of course, you're a fashionista of course.
You may have seen this trending in Vogue's Snapchat story…
Kitsch fashion has been going on since the 1970's, remember tye dye?
Or maybe you've got a totally rad photo of your mom in the 80's rocking the Madonna look! Then in the 90's, it's kind of hard to forget body glitter, and those butterfly hair clips we thought were so cool! All of that is making a comeback believe it or not. So what is Kitsch exactly?
According to Vogue, Kitschy fashion is: clothes and accessories that purposely look excessive and cheap on purpose. Somehow, it's all the rage.
The same way glitter butts, and even that Ikea bag became fashion statements, it just happened.
We're not sure what to think of it yet, but it's trending!
Rihanna just shines.
Of course, the look is much more embellished on the runway, but we look forward to seeing how Kitsch's comeback holds up!

The Emotional Quotient Inventory (EQ-i 2.0®) is the first scientifically validated assessment tool for emotional intelligence skills.
The EQ-i 2.0 is the most widely used, best selling, most flexible, most studied, cost effective measure ofEQ competencies in the world.
High EQ is directly linked with performance
To be a highly effective person is to demonstrate the competencies measured by the EQ-i 2.0. These competencies are highly correlated with the ability to provide inspirational leadership; the ability to provide outstanding customer service; the ability to be an excellent team member; and the ability to be a leading salesperson – all the elements of business that are based on human interaction. Why not just say "people skills"? We could, but we now know so much more than that, but if you're more comfortable with "people skills" – then we won't stop you. However, we now know that each and every one of the competencies related to demonstrating highly effective people skills is related to one's ability with emotions – one's own and the emotions of others.
The Bar-On Model of EQ, as measured by the EQ-i 2.0, consists of 15 EQ Competencies.
15 competencies
Self-Regard – respecting oneself; confidence
Self-Actualization – pursuit of meaning; self-improvement
Emotional Self-Awareness – understanding own emotions
Emotional Expression – constructive expression of emotions
Assertiveness – communicating feelings, beliefs; non-offensive
Independence – self-directed; free from emotional dependency
Interpersonal Relationships – mutually satisfying relationships
Empathy – understanding, appreciating how others feel
Social Responsibility – social consciousness; helpful
Problem Solving – find solutions when emotions are involved
Reality Testing – objective; see things as they really are
Impulse Control – resist or delay impulse to act
Flexibility – adapting emotions, thoughts and behaviors
Stress Tolerance – coping with stressful situations
Optimism – positive attitude and outlook on life
Level B assessment tool
The EQ-i 2.0 is a Level 'B' psychometric and, as such, requires that one meet the academic requirements to use a Level 'B' assessment tool OR that they take the EQ-i 2.0 Certification Course. I have met people who were using the EQ-i 2.0 as a result of meeting the academic requirements and, unfortunately, they were not adequately prepared to leverage some of the more sophisticated aspects of the EQ-i 2.0.
We offer the EQ-i 2.0 Certification Course in a number of cities as an open enrollment course and is regularly invited to deliver custom, in-house courses which saves organizations on travel and accommodation expenses and ensures that an organization's unique needs are met.

With the start of training camp just a few short weeks away, I will examine the Notre Dame roster, position-by-position, over the next several weeks leading up to the start of the regular season on the first Saturday in September.
First up will be the quarterbacks, which was a position that had a lot of turnover during Brian Kelly's first season at the helm in South Bend. By only the second game of the season in 2011, Kelly had already used three quarterbacks due to an injury to his starter and poor play from one his backups.
This group may be short on game experience, but it is one of the most talented units on the Notre Dame roster. Lets take a look at the position shall we?
Dayne Crist: 2010 was suppose to be the season where Crist showed why he was so highly thought of by coaches when he came out of high school. He was finally the starter after spending his first two seasons behind Jimmy Clausen backing up the now Carolina Panther. All of it ended up being was a season of disappointment.
The now senior QB only managed to play in nine games after suffering a season ending knee injury in the game against Tulsa. Crist suffered a serious knee injury the year previous in a game against Washington State on the turf in San Antonio.
The injuries don't end there for him. Crist suffered an eye injury in the Michigan game, which made him miss significant time in the first half against the Wolverines. If the quarterback would have stayed healthy, there probably have been a much different result in the game and instead of starting the season off at .500, the Irish would have been 2-0.
Despite the injuries and the complaints from many fans of his inconsistent play, Crist had a pretty solid season in his first season as the team's starter under center. Remind you, he was playing n a new system that he has never played in before. Kelly's spread system needs a quarterback to make quick reads and adjust to defenses quickly. Crist struggled early on, but he got better as the season went on.
Even though his season ended in the Tulsa game, Crist finished up the year with some good numbers throwing 15 touchdowns and seven interceptions. His best game came on the road against Michigan State where he threw for 369 yards and four TD's with only a lone pick. Sadly for Crist and his teammates, the Irish would lose on a last second fake field goal that went for a TD.
From all indications, Crist appears to be 100 percent ready for the start of training game slated for the first week of August. He was actually ahead of schedule coming off the surgery all the way back in the beginning of the season. That is a testament to his work ethic and the drive he has to be this team's starter going forward.
Final 2010 Stats: 2,033 Yards, 59.2 Percent Completion Percentage, 15 TD's, 7 INT's
Tommy Rees: After Crist went down with the knee injury during the Tulsa game, things were looking pretty bleak for Kelly and company going forward the rest of the season. After Crist on the depth chart, the remaining Irish QB's had zero game experience, which was clear in the Michigan game
Rees was one of thee guys who saw action in that game, but was taken out quickly after throwing two incomplete passes. He saw some action in garbage time against Navy a few weeks later, completing six of his seven passes for 79 yards, but it was the Tulsa game where we really saw what the then freshman could do under center.
In his first meaningful time at the collegiate level, Rees would go on to throw an eye-popping 54 passes in that game against Tulsa. He would complete 33 of them and also threw for four scores, but Rees also forced many passes, three of which were picked off by Tulsa defenders. That would be the last time we would really see Rees struggle the rest of the season.
After the Tulsa loss, the new freshman starter would go on to lead his team to four straight wins to close out the season, which included a huge win on the road against Southern Cal and a blowout bowl win against Miami in the Hyundai Sun Bowl in El Paso.
Over those four wins, we really learned what Rees was made of. Not highly recruited coming out of high school, Rees didnt feature a big arm and he didn't have great speed or height. Heck, it is hard to find one thing that Rees did tremendously well, but the kid proved he is a winner and one of the smarter players on the entire roster.
Those are two of the big things you ask for out of your starting quarterback and Rees certainly showed that he has both of those features.
Final 2010 Stats: 1,106 Yards, 61 Percent Completion Percentage, 12 TD's, 8 INT's
Andrew Hendrix: Hendrix is actually the complete opposite of Rees in every way possible. He was one of the most highly recruited quarterbacks in the country two recruiting seasons ago, he has ideal height for a QB at 6'3″ and he has very good arm strength and good enough speed in and out the pocket to cause some teams problems.
Unlike Rees though, Hendrix didn't get to see any time on the field in 2010, despite the clamoring of many Irish fans for him to do so.
That doesn't mean he won't see any meaningful minutes during his sophomore season though. Most would agree that Hendrix is probably the best fit for Kelly's system out of the first four quarterbacks on the depth chart because of his size, his very good athleticism and his knowledge of the spread system.
Only time will tell, however, if Hendrix can skip over two guys on the depth chart to become this team's starter for the season opener. Most oddsmakers would bet against it.
Final 2010 Stats: No Stats
Everett Golson: There wasn't a more talked recruit from Irish fans in 2011 class than Mr. Golson. Listed at about 6-foot, but actually around 5'11", Golson showed during the Blue-Gold Game in March what Notre Dame has for the future at the position going forward.
Even though he may be short in stature, Golson more than makes up for it with his presence in the huddle. Despite only going to be a true freshman, several of his teammates have already said how great of a leader that Golson is when he calls plays in the huddle.
Golson is also a freakish athlete as well. In the snaps that he received during the spring game, the young QB showed how explosive he can be whenever he gets out of the pocket. Golson had a number of beautiful runs, juking out defenders to grab extra yardage.
Along with his athleticism and his speed getting out of the pocket, Golson has underrated arm strength as well. When he wasn't scrambling for a first down in the game, the first-year collegiate player showed zip on passes and solid accuracy when he needed to do so.
The Irish haven't had a quarterback like Golson in years with his mixture of athleticism and arm strength. He may not see the field in his first season under center, but don't be surprised to see Kelly get him involved in the offense in some way throughout parts of the 2011 campaign.
Final 2010 Stats: High School Senior
Final Predictions for 2011 Season: Despite fans wanting to see Hendrix and Golson under center for 2011, I highly doubt we will see either this season, unless of course injuries happen to both Crist and Rees. Hendrix and Golson are the future, Crist and Rees are the two who should be given starting consideration now.
Mr. Kelly has a better feel for his quarterbacks than me though and I trust his judgment whatever his decision ends up being.
I am high on Rees, especially when you get the opinions of the majority of Irish fans. I think he has tools that you need out of your quarterback, but I see Crist being this team's starter when the season opens up in September. At the very least, he deserves to be this team's starter with all the work that he has put in to get back from yet another knee injury.
Year Two in Kelly's offense will do wonders for Crist on so many levels. We saw him make tremendous strides in the latter half of the season, but the unfortunate knee injury cut his season short again. If he wouldn't have suffered that injury, he would be this team's unquestioned guy under center at the moment.
The injury may have been bad for Crist and of course the Irish at the moment, but it could do wonders for them if Crist were to go down once again in 2011.
Just imagine if Crist would have played in every single minute last season and he suffered an injury at some point this year? Rees wouldn't have that experience he got last season. The Irish season would suddenly be jeopardy if Crist were out for an extended period of time.
That wouldn't be the case now. Rees has the experience and the record to back it up. Can anyone actually remember the last time an Irish QB finished off the season with four straight wins, including a bowl win? You have to go back a couple of decades to find the answer to that question.
The quarterback position will be the biggest question for many critics of this Irish team heading into the season, but if Crist is 100 percent and plays like he is capable of playing, Kelly and company could very well be celebrating a BCS bowl victory in early January.

Simple Soldering Tips
Soldering Tips
As I do lots of mods on my Syma S107 Heli and RC planes,there is always a need to solder wires together,like doing Dales Battery Mod So have found a few videos on soldering that might help some beginners to lose some fear of soldering small wires together and really some neat soldering techniques.
You will need a few tools for soldering.
I have found two sites that might help Amazon and HobbyKing – below are a list of tools and equipment you require:
(1) Soldering Iron:
Now there are some cheap ones out there that are ok to start off with,like a 25 watt is doable. Links below click to view.
Amazon: This is a 25 watt for around $15
Hobbyking: This is 80watt for $4 plus postage,depending where you live might need plug adapter.
(2) Heat Shrink:
You need this to cover your solder joints.
Amazon: This is a starter 48 piece set for around $6
Hobbyking: This link is just to one size but they have heaps from $0.25c upward.
(3) Helping Hand Magnifier w/LED Light.
These little tools come with alligator clips magnifying glass and really help to hold wires for soldering.
Amazon: Prices start from $7 this one has a light as well for around $10 plus postage.
Hobbyking: This one is around $3 – they sell out of them quickly, just put in wish list they will email you when in stock.
(4) Wire Strippers
You need this tool as cuts off wire plastic coating with ease.
Amazon: Automatic Wire Stripper with Cutter around $10
Hobbyking: Wire Strippers & cutter 2in1.
(5) Of course some solder
To me do not get the unleaded just not as good,if you are worried about small fumes use a fan near you or a paper mask.
Amazon: Around $7 or buy from local hardware store.
Some extra Soldering Help:
Liquid Electric Insulating Tape: Not as good as heat shrink but easy to use.
Solder Sucker: de-soldering pump.
That really is your starter kit to kick off soldering your Syma helicopters, planes or rc cars and rc boats for less than $85 plus postage you are good to go.

Are you more afraid of success — or failure? Hard call, even for the most evolved. So scroll down for words of wisdom on the pros and cons of both approaches. Then tell us, where do you fall? • Illustration by Michael Gibbs
Defining Success
1. "Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts." — Winston Churchill

5. "Always be yourself, express yourself, have faith in yourself, do not go out and look for a successful personality and duplicate it." — Bruce Lee
6. "No man succeeds without a good woman behind him. Wife or mother, if it is both, he is twice blessed indeed." — Godfrey Winn
7. "Success makes so many people hate you. I wish it wasn't that way. It would be wonderful to enjoy success without seeing envy in the eyes of those around you." — Marilyn Monroe
8. "It had long since come to my attention that people of accomplishment rarely sat back and let things happen to them. They went out and happened to things." — Leonardo da Vinci
9. "Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value." — Albert Einstein

I just want to take a moment to thank the most recent batch of site supporters for sending in their donations.
Running this Web site has been a labor of love since I started it back in 1999. I spend my time and money and use my computer resources to make it possible. But as many of you may know, I'm not as "in love" with Wickenburg these days as I've been in the past. Changes to the town that I don't think will benefit the town have really gotten me down, making it tough to write positive things. Whenever I write something that's the least bit unfavorable, I get blasted by a few people who seem to have forgotten the good things I've said in the past.
Donations from supporters help us add new features. For example, I'm currently trying to find a home for two new Webcams and am working with partners to add more interesting features like podcasts and live broadcasts. They also help cover the cost of hosting the Web site. This is extremely important after someone blasts me for voicing an opinion or telling the truth about something and I wonder why I'm wasting my time providing this service.
It must not be a waste of time when generous supporters open their wallets to help me cover the site's costs.
Thank you. It's an honor and pleasure to serve you all.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|4 nights
My apartment and the property suffered no damage from either hurricane Irma or Maria and I recently had granite counter tops installed. I am ready to go for the winter of 2017/2018.
Located 3 Miles west of the City of Puerto Plata in quiet Costambar. Nicely furnished 2 bedroom, one bath unit on the second floor. One minute walk to beach. Daily maid, casinos nearby. Good base for exploring the North Coast of the DR. Much to see and do.
Check out the Puerto Plata report and specifically, Costambar Monthly,for tons of info on Costambar and Puerto Plata.
Nice coral protected beach which is great for children. At a low tide you can walk way out and there is lots of sealife to investigate. Be careful when walking because openings in the coral can go 50 feet deep. Great for snorkeling or diving. Locals fish and snorkle with spearguns and sell their catch, the more spanish you speak the less you pay.
Wifi, Cable TV, daily maid. Maid will do your laundry for a reasonable fee. Towels and linens supplied. Maid cleans floors, and empties the trash, you are responsible for everything else. The towels are changed every 3rd day and sheets once a week. No Phone , no air-conditioning. We have a generator that runs on a schedule for maintenance and a battery backup for fans,lights and fridge as emergency backup. Deposit and signed rental agreement necessary for reservation. I answer e-mails promptly on weekdays.
Keywords: affordable caribbean
I bought my apartment in 1989 when I lived in Rhode Island. I always enjoyed being away from the telephone and the pressures of life at home. Winter vacations are not as important since I moved to Clearwater, Florida but I still like getting away from the USA and enjoying the Puerto Plata attitude to everything, 'No Problem'. I am a retired mailman.
Thomas Cambra purchased this condo in 1989
I bought it in 1989 because for me it was the affordable Caribbean. Puerto Plata is a charming town, the people are very friendly and the weather is reliably warm in the winter.
Florida in the winter is not a reliable beach vacation. It seemed as though everytime we vacationed in Florida we caught a cold front. Not the case in Puerto Plata. The water is 80 degrees in the winter and 85 in the summer.
My unit is on a short street, Calle Padre Bilini, that ends at the beach. There is a green area behind the complex. The mountain in the background is Mt Isabela which has the Caribbeans only cable car. I always enjoy getting away from the hustle and bustle of life in the USA.
My unit is in a small 18 unit complex called Seabreeze Suites which is located in Costambar a community 3 miles west of the City of Puerto Plata. Costambar is rural and the DR is third world. My place is nice but it is for experienced travelers. The DR is not the US. You will know you have been on vacation out of the US. The people are very nice and it is safe to go wherever you want taking the precautions you would take anywhere else.
I can recommend a Spanish tutor for those of you that have an interest in learning a little Espanol or want someone to work with your children. She could also serve as a guide and her rates are very reasonable. She will come to your apartment. If you don't speak spanish and haven't been to Puerto Plata before she would save you money.
Rental cars are cheaper in the DR than here in Flordia. I've stayed in the Playa Dorado complex several times and the rooms there weren't impressive in relation to my unit. So the difference in renting my place from a hotel is that you are on your own.
The benefit of being able to cook your own food is two fold, it is cheaper and you don't get sick.
Very comfortable apartment. Very close to the golf course, short walk to the beach. I was a little surprised that there was no electrical plug in the bathroom. Area was very clean and well maintained. When I found a problem it was rectified immediately. The couch does need to be replaced as you sink into it. People who maintain the apartment are very nice and helpful.
This has nothing to do with the owner or place but the road leading to the beach was a disaster area when it rained. The community was working on the road as I was leaving so hopefully that has been fixed as the area did get unusual heavy rain this past season.
We stayed at Tom's condo for the months of Jan. and Feb. The condo had everything we needed to make our stay great. The beds were comfortable and the bedding was changed every Friday. The housekeeper Marian kept the condo clean and the groundskeeper kept the pools sparkling. Lodi, who managed the condos, was fantastic. If any little thing went wrong she had it rectified immediately. She answered all our questions concerning our stay and even suggested sites to visit. She is definitely irreplaceable. I would recommend this condo to anyone. My only suggestion is that Tom, the owner, should consider replacing some of the pots and dishes although they were certainly usable for the time that we were there. I hopeing to rent this condo again in the future.
Nous sommes demeuré 4 semaines. Dans le condo il y a toutes les facilitées. Balcon intime alors nous avons pris tout nos repas sur le balcon. Le condo est à une minute de marche de la plage. La plage est bien. Nous avons passé des moments très agréable à la piscine en compagnie des autres locataires sur le site. Plusieurs bon restaurants à Costambar donc pas besoin d'automobile......
We stayed here in 2012 for a month. This year (2014) we returned for another month. It was a comfortable, clean apartment in 2012 and this year it was even better with the improvements that Tom, the owner, has done. We enjoy our time on the beach...only minutes away...and our time in the pool.
The numerous restaurants and bars in Costambar are excellent serving Dominican, Canadian, Italian and German fare at reasonable prices. We ate most breakfasts and some dinners at the apartment but eating out is so reasonable we took advantage of being spoiled. The kitchen is very well stocked with cooking equipment and the local corner store is very accommodating if you choose to eat all of your meals in.
The apartment and property is very clean and well maintained by Myrium and management.
The owner explains his place and surrounding area perfectly, that is all you need to read!
Renting this condo from Tom made our trip to Puerto Plata accommodating, affordable, relaxing, and most of all, enjoyable. Our condo was clean and well stocked with everything we could possible need for our 11 day stay. Many days we lounged in the clean pool for hours at a time. It was such a nice quiet atmosphere. We had such a great time in Costambar. Many meals and piña coladas were had at Pauls (restaurant on the beach a block away). We had the opportunity of meeting so many lovely and cheerful people there from all over the world. The beach which is only steps away from the condo was clean and maintained. In the area are lots of services as well, such as taxi, groceries, pharmacy, restaurants, etc.
I can't wait to back again soon as I will definitely be staying here again.

The Scopus Scholarship
The Scopus Scholarship creates opportunities for deserving students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. It is available to students at all stages of study.
The University's student body is economically and socially diverse. 70% of Israeli students at the University come from outside Jerusalem, and so must factor high housing costs into their expenses.
Most students are older than their peers in the UK, only beginning their studies after completing army service. Many have family members to support.
Your scholarship will benefit an individual student at the University. You will receive an annual report detailing his or her progress and achievements after the end of their academic year.
Open the door for a student whose economic situation makes it impossible to study.
To get involved please call Gill Benson on 020 8349 5733 or email email@example.com

Once again I present to you some "Before & After" photos. These are the rotors from a Paxman French horn that came into the shop last week. The first photo shows the rotors from a double horn and as you can see there is a significant amount of bluish/green buildup on both the four rotors and the back bearings which are the pieces directly above the rotors. In the second photo, abracadabra, like magic the rotors and back bearings are clean as a whistle. Actually it's far from magic. The rotors were scoured using a dremel with a small brass brush then they were put into a de-greaser to remove all unwanted sludge & grit and finally they go into a chemical cleaner designed to clean brass parts. The same procedure was also done to the rotor casings which are attached to the French horn itself. Next, I wipe everything down with denatured alcohol and then reassemble the horn. Nothing to it, a piece of cake, etc., etc., etc. The majority of French horns that come into my shop need this same procedure.
Paxman horns are British made and seem to be nice instruments. They are not as common in this country but they do pop up now and then.

I am in the process of stripping my kitchen cabinets and have given them the first coat of stain. I need advice on how much sanding is necessary between the coats of stain and whether to use sandpaper or steel wool. (Does the same procedure apply to varnish?) I'm also wondering if there are any varnish products without the high gloss or similar products that would protect the wood and maintain the matte finish?

Giants pass receiver states that the racist graffiti scrawled over his team-mate Nikita Whitlocks house throughout a break-in is unsurprising in modern America
New York Giants pass receiver Victor Cruz states that the racist graffiti scrawled over his team-mate Nikita Whitlocks house throughout a theft is unsurprising in contemporary America.
Whitlocks house was gotten into for the 2nd time in a month on Tuesday night and graffiti consisting of a swastika, the n-word, KKK and Trump was left on the walls. Whitlock was required to cover a few of the mottos in sheets to secure his 2 kids. The burglary is being dealt with as a hate criminal activity, inning accordance with the Record .
I believe its absolutely a direct reflection of how this nation is being run and how this nation is responding possibly to a few of the choices and a few of the manner ins which this nation is being run and the important things that are being stated by the individuals at the helm of this nation and at the helm of our daily lives, stated Cruz.
From social networks all the method approximately the White House, these are things that are being mentioned and discussed daily, the great and the bad more so the bad at this moment today since thats all we need to deal with. Its simply a regrettable circumstance that were going through today.
Cruz has actually been important of President-elect Donald Trump in the past and stated the event was a sign of the method a few of his fans believe. I believe theres a particular frame of mind that includes supporting a man like Donald Trump and supporting exactly what he represents, and theres a particular kind of individual that includes that, stated Cruz, who included that other Trump fans were encouraged not by bias however by a desire for modification. Im unsure that individual is constantly a positive-minded individual, if you understand exactly what I imply. Youve simply got to take care.
As a minority, you need to beware, as an individual of impact you need to beware and youve simply got to ensure your household is safe and provide the understanding that they have to remain safe in this world.
Cruz matured in Paterson, New Jersey, near the website of the break in and stated that had it had actually impacted him on an individual level. Definitely. Thats exactly what is most stunning to me about this particular event with Nikita Whitlock, Cruz stated. Its simply 20 minutes from where I matured. This might have quickly taken place in Paterson. It might have quickly taken place in Clifton or Passaic or Lyndhurst even for that matter. This might have occurred anywhere.
To see something like that occur around here and to take place the manner in which it did: getting into a house, the vandalism … Nikita has kids. Hes got to discuss that to his kids. Not ideal now. 5 years from now, 10 years from now when they ask, Hey, Dad, keep in mind when that occurred? They need to address those concerns. He needs to respond to those concerns to his kids. Its regrettable. Nobody ought to need to go through that.
Cruz, who has actually bet the Giants his whole profession, stated he was not fretted about any unfavorable response to his remarks. Thats great with me, he stated. Im comfy with that. Im comfy with individuals responses to that. Thats my viewpoint, thats my frame of mind, thats the method I believe, so Im not disturbed at anyone else that believes otherwise.

Portland Cocktail Week 2012 has officially come to a close. Bartenders from across the country will be fleeing the city back to their home bars as quickly as their hangovers will allow, leaving only the lingering smell of Chartreuse and an excess of JÄgermeister swag behind. It was a good time, to say the least. A homecoming dance kicked off the festivities, Black Joe Lewis played a private show, the closing party was appropriately superior, and, of course, the drinks were phenomenal.
A highlight of the activities that were open to the public—and definitely the most productive party I've ever enjoyed—was the Pig & Punch, hosted by a travelling company of bartenders called the Bon Vivants who recruit volunteers in different cities to fix up a part of the community for a day and follow with a giant party centered around what you might imagine: roasted pigs and enough punch to drown a small elephant. $30 admission was a ridiculous deal for such offerings, and included as much incredibly well-prepared pig, sides, desserts, punch, beer, and live music as you could handle. And a t-shirt. The food was delicious, with the pork coming off a custom-built spit and supervised to perfection.
The party also featured a dunk tank, which possibly raised more than ticket sales considering these bartenders get pretty competitive—especially when they're dunking each other in a cold parking lot—and overall, the event raised over $4,000 from the attending industry and brought out 46 volunteers to renovate LEP High, a local leadership and entrepreneurship charter school. This is going to be an annual event, folks, so mark your calendars for next year—you won't want to miss it again.

POTTAWATOMIE COUNTY, Kan. (KSNT) – Pottawatomie County could be replacing speed limit signs to a lower speed limit. County commissioners are in the process of making the decision as a way to keep everyone who lives there safer.
Roads that will be impacted by the possible speed limit reductions in Pottawatomie County include: residential areas down to 20 mph and dirt roads in the rural part of the county would go down to 30 mph.
Pottawatomie County Commissioner Dee McKee says the reason for the change is because some of the speeds are just too fast, especially in residential areas.
"In some places up to 30 miles per hour faster than what is necessary for people living in housing districts where the houses 150 feet apart," Commissioner Dee McKee said.
These higher speeds have caused safety concerns for the county.
"I get a lot of emails and phone calls about speeds like why can't we slow these cars down," McKee said. "When we don't have any rules the sheriff can do nothing,"
However, adding the new speed limit signs would mean replacing current ones, or adding signs that don't already have any. The county has estimated it will be around 330 new speed limit signs. The cost for all those signs would drive the price to around $85,000. McKee says these signs are well worth the price.
"One child not being killed is well worth it," McKee said.
McKee also says the county will make the money back in savings.
"We will save enough on road maintenance because of that and safety factor of not having accidents that saving will be across the entire county," McKee said.
The county commissioners will be deciding on whether or not to approve the speed limit changes within the next few weeks.

Last week, I found myself sitting down and looking at the next couple of months…. my sister is getting married, which means there are lots of fun festivities in the very near future… we just had Easter… we have our Cabo trip and a few fun weekend getaways planned… and then there's Mother's Day. All that to say, there is some celebrating and dressing up to do. More so than I've had in a while (I promise I'm not boring…). So, I took inventory of my closet and decided that adding a few dresses here and there, to wear to said events, was in line….
When I'm picking out a dress, I tend to opt for flowy and bohemian like patterns and styles (with solid whites and blacks thrown in there…)…. I don't usually opt for anything tight (although I do own this dress… bought it when I was pregnant, and still love it….) and typically don't have a preference for length. With that being said, my sister and I sat down on Saturday, on-line perused together, and found some pretty fun dresses that I thought I'd share with you too…. just in case you find yourself looking for something fun to toss on….
I loved this floral dress the minute I saw it on-line. At such an excellent price point, it was too good to pass up. The print isn't too bold, and I love the smocked top. It's lined, which means no slip is necessary. I bought these studded sandals for spring, and wore them with this slip dress this past weekend, but I love them with today's dress too….This dress is easily appropriate for a shower (likely more baby than bridal) or brunch… and can easily be dressed down with a denim jacket and flat sandals for a casual everyday look. A few other dresses I would consider for this type of occasion include this blush embroidered off the shoulder dress, this gauze maxi floral dress, adorable off the shoulder dress (comes in so many gorgeous colors), this light blue floral and lace insert dress is absolutely gorgeous (and such a great price), and this cute polka dot flutter sleeve dress.
Something I had to think a little more about was my sister's bachelorette party… it's been a few years since I've been on one (#GettingOld #HopeICanHang) and I had to remind myself of appropriate attire. She decided on this adorable short dress (I told her to get this white romper too #KnockOut)… and I'm debating between this plunging neckline dress and this exposed back floral dress (which I could easily make work again by wearing flat sandals and a denim jacket).
For Cabo, I couldn't help but consider this gorgeous lace overlay dress (it comes in a mustard and ivory color….) as well as this ombré blush flowy dress (so gorgeous)….. they're both pretty much perfect for margarita sipping….
So, while dresses don't make their way into my shopping back often… when I have fun festivities to look forward to, they're often my favorite go-to's.

When Metta Health Care opened in 1999, I wanted to offer clients an option to use herbs, vitamins and homeopathies as well as conventional medicine.
Since then, we have branched out to study a variety of complementary services and therapies which have been proven to enhance health. This allows us to tackle almost any medical condition successfully.
What I love about working here is I have fantastic people working with me and I have patients that are motivated to change.
We like to laugh here; it is after all the best medicine!
Some of the things I like to do in my spare time are gardening, traveling and riding dirt bikes.

Premenstrual syndrome (PMS), the onslaught of physical and emotional symptoms that plague an estimated 40 percent of all women during the last one or two weeks of their menstrual cycles, may have met its match.
A new study published in the Archives of Internal Medicine found that a combination of calcium and vitamin D not only reduces the risk of PMS symptoms, but they may be able to prevent them all together. The study compared the diets and supplement use of 1,057 women with PMS (aged 27 to 44) to 1,968 women with no PMS for a span of over 10 years.
Researchers found that women who ate four servings or more a day of a dairy product were less likely to develop PMS symptoms including anxiety, loneliness, irritability, tearfulness and tension.
"It seems that women who eat more foods high in calcium and vitamin D have less risk of experiencing PMS," said Dr. Elizabeth Bertone-Johnson of the University of Massachusetts, the study's lead author. "It's very exciting, and could end up being good news for many women out there."

JOSH MAGENNIS likes straight talking.
He admires Kilmarnock manager Kenny Shiels for speaking his mind when he feels the need to.
But with Shiels and No2 Jimmy Nicholl in the same dressing room, Aberdeen defender Magennis reckons Killie's players must have to rely on their MUMS for a confidence boost.
Magennis is full of admiration for the way Shiels shoots from the lip and he reckons his fellow Northern Irishman has brightened up Scottish football with his forthright opinions.
The Dons right-back said: "I remember Kenny from coaching the young Northern Ireland teams.
"I didn't work with him, but I remember him being about, doing the young teams for the Victory Shield. He's always been a bit outspoken — I think all Northern Irish people are!
"If he's got an opinion, he'll tell you and he says his piece. He won't keep something behind closed doors if he thinks it should be said.
"Some people like it. They prefer to hear straight talking, while others will want to beat around the bush.
"Kenny isn't one who does that. He's up front and he tells people what he thinks.
"I prefer someone who speaks their mind. I think that's why I get on well with Archie Knox.
"You have the manager on one hand trying to keep you upbeat, but on the other there's Archie, who will just tell you straight if you've been rubbish.
"If you need a boost the gaffer will do it, but when you need a rocket up your bum, Archie delivers that.
"With Killie having Kenny and Jimmy Nicholl there, if you need some confidence you'd better ring your mum or something!
"I think they are a good partnership because they've taken on what Mixu Paatelainen started there and kept it going. They have a very good style of play — but hopefully ours will be better this weekend."
Magennis has been reinvented as a full-back after boss Craig Brown shifted the striker into defence. His lack of goals meant he was heading for the Pittodrie exit until the change of position reinvigorated his career. Ironically, he's scoring more freely now than he ever did up front and he puts it down to being more at ease defending his own box rather than scavenging in the opposition's.
Magennis, who is out of contract at the end of the season, said: "I was told I wouldn't be kept on as a striker because there were other players scoring more than I was.
"You can't argue with that as a striker because that's your job.
"But I got a lifeline when I went to right-back and hopefully I have been able to do enough to get another deal.
"It's not really on my mind. We all know if you play well the contracts will come.
"I've been scoring more goals playing at the back, which is ironic. I think I'm more relaxed. In the past I felt I had 60 minutes to score or I was getting hooked and that makes you try too hard. When you're not relaxed, things don't come off for you.
"Now I'm just going with the flow and I feel I'm progressing as a defender. I'm more chilled, I'm not uptight any more.
"Having been a striker helps as a defender because you know where the striker wants to go and what sort of areas they like to get into.
"When you understand that, it makes it a bit easier to guess what they're going to do.
"People like Russell Anderson read the game brilliantly. It's natural to him. But for me, I'd definitely say being a striker is beneficial."
With numerous Northern Irish influences in the SPL now, Magennis reckons people back home are waking up to the fact there's more than just the Old Firm in Scottish football.
He said: "There is a big Northern Irish influence in the league just now.
"With more coverage on TV, people back home are starting to notice the other clubs.
"There's always been interest in the Old Firm, but now people are maybe looking at the other Northern Irish players and managers more closely.
"The profile of the SPL is getting better. People say social media is a bad thing, but it's given more of a profile to clubs and players."
Aberdeen beat Motherwell in midweek to get through to the fifth round of the Scottish Cup and Magennis believes that replay win can be the catalyst for the remainder of their season.
He said: "It was great to get through in the Cup because it was massive for our season.
"Motherwell are a very good side, so it was a confidence-booster to get through and have the Cup to look forward to next year.
"Having the Cup and the league to look forward to is great because they can feed off each other. We want to build momentum and keep winning."

It wasn't long ago that I hit bottom. I was deeply discouraged. I was disappointed in myself. I felt stuck…with no way out. And what little hope I had was fading. I've been there before, but this was a new low.
It's hard for me to even say those things, because I like to have my act together. I like to be the guy who helps others, not the guy who needs help. Even though it's the seasons of suffering and brokenness that qualify me to help others, I'd still rather not go through them.
A number of years ago, I made the mistake of being angry with God and feeling disappointed with Him when things seemed to be falling down around me. I've said it before, but that led me down a dark road. And it took a number of years to find my way back.
Having learned my lesson…although I hesitate to say I've "learned" anything. Let's say just say I'm "learning." So I'm learning not to blame God when things go wrong and difficulties come. But that led me to make another serious mistake.
Rather than blaming God for my troubles, I blamed the only person who could be responsible…me. I was no longer pointing a finger at God, but at myself. I doubted myself. I felt ashamed and embarrassed. I could no longer see the light.
Maybe you can relate. Maybe you're in a season like that now. It could be your health. Your finances. Your job. Your marriage or a relationship with a child. Whatever it is…it feels like nothing is working.
I have to believe the man in John 5 who'd been paralyzed for 38 years could relate.
Afterward Jesus returned to Jerusalem for one of the Jewish holy days. Inside the city, near the Sheep Gate, was the pool of Bethesda, with five covered porches. Crowds of sick people—blind, lame, or paralyzed—lay on the porches. One of the men lying there had been sick for thirty-eight years. When Jesus saw him and knew he had been ill for a long time, he asked him, "Would you like to get well?"
"I can't, sir," the sick man said, "for I have no one to put me into the pool when the water bubbles up. Someone else always gets there ahead of me."
Jesus told him, "Stand up, pick up your mat, and walk!"
Instantly, the man was healed! He rolled up his sleeping mat and began walking!
When you've been paralyzed for 38 years, I imagine you give up hoping you'll actually ever be well. I don't know what it's like to be paralyzed for almost four decades, but I know what it's like to have a chronic condition for more than four decades.
I've had psoriasis since I was around 10-years-old. It's a condition that causes red, scaly patches on my skin. Even after all these years, it still makes me self-conscious. I used to hope and pray it would go away, but I don't any more. It's something I will always live with.
That had to be what the paralyzed man was thinking. Even when Jesus asked him if he wanted to get well, he said, "I can't…" Getting well was up to him and he couldn't even see the possibility of being healed and his life getting better.
I think it's interesting that Jesus doesn't repeat the question, doesn't correct him and doesn't rebuke him for his lack of faith. There are other instances where Jesus heals someone in response to their faith, but not this time. He simply heals a man who maybe had no faith left and could no longer see the light.
If your faith is failing and the light is dim, all I can do is encourage you to not give up. In my next post, I'll share what happened in me that gave me the hope to keep going…

WASHINGTON- Consumer prices rose modestly in January, propelled by higher energy costs, but economists said they remain more concerned about the threat of price declines throughout the economy.
That's because even with last month's increase in consumer prices, inflation has been flat over the past year, the lowest reading in more than a half-century.
The Labor Department said Friday that consumer prices rose by 0.3 percent last month, which was the first increase since prices were up 0.7 percent in July. Prices were flat in August and September, and then posted huge declines in the fourth quarter of last year.
The November plunge of 1.7 percent was the largest on government records going back 61 years. Prices fell by 0.8 percent in both December and October, the government said Friday, slightly revising lower the original estimates.
While falling prices appeal to consumers, the Federal Reserve is on alert about the possibility of deflation, which can make a recession even worse by dragging down Americans' wages, and clobbering already-stricken home and stock prices. Dropping prices already are hurting businesses' profits, forcing them to slice capital investments and lay off workers.
Even with the 0.3 percent January increase, which was in line with economists' expectations, inflation for the 12 months ending in January was zero. That's the lowest reading since prices actually fell by 0.4 percent for a 12-month period ending in August 1955.
Core inflation, which excludes energy and food, showed a modest increase of 0.2 percent, slightly higher than the 0.1 percent gain economists expected. Over the past 12 months, core inflation rose 1.7 percent, the lowest reading since a similar increase for the 12 months ending in August 2004.
The last period of deflation in the U.S. occurred during the Great Depression in the 1930s, although Japan battled deflation during its "lost" decade of the 1990s.
Economists have grown more concerned about deflation in recent months as the severity of the recession, already the longest in a quarter-century, intensifies.
"We are having a massive asset-price deflation in terms of falling home prices and falling stock prices," said Nigel Gault, chief U.S. economist at IHS Global Insight. "The Federal Reserve's worry should definitely still be deflation."

Whatever happened to the female emcee? Or more appropriately, whatever happened to the female emcee with mic skills?
It's kinda sad that the role of the woman in hip-hop has devalued over the years from Queen Latifah and MC Lyte to Nicki fuckin' Minaj.
There's no template for a successful female rapper that can not only compete with guy emcees, but can do so while keeping their clothes on. Post-Kim and Foxy, every successful femcee has stressed the power of the cooch over the power of their verses. Even talented emcees like Da Brat, Rah Digga and Eve allowed their images to become more sex-based over time. Not that I'm necessarily complaining, mind you-but you've gotta shake your heads at the fact that these talented women sold out a little bit.
Anyway, one femcee who never quite got her proper shine was Heather B. This Jersey girl was one of the highlights of the first season of "The Real World", back when it was an interesting social experiment and not a forum for pretty drunk people to make asses of themselves. Actually, the folks on that first season cast were not only interesting personalities, but they also went on to be quite successful independently (as evidenced by Heather, Kevin Powell and Eric Nies). Heather was certified rugged, Boogie Down Productions endorsed, and was more than capable of wiping out cats in a freestyle cipher. She never had a big pop hit (I guess MTV can only get you so far), but there were some bangers on her debut album, including "All Glocks Down" (which utilized a sick sample of the bassline from "People Make the World Go Round" by The Stylistics) and "If Headz Only Knew". Check out the video and remember a point in time when there were actually lyrically proficient female emcees out there who DIDN'T rely on guys to write their rhymes.

When it comes to attracting traffic to your site, a SEO company can offer you several ways of ensuring that. Among the various choices you will get, two are of greatest importance: search engine optimization and social media. Sometimes, convincing people that these two are the best options one can avail becomes a problem while at times which one to choose between the two becomes an issue.
In this blog, we shall be discussing about both media so that you can analyze the pros and cons of each, and opt for your suitable medium for marketing. Let's get started now.
How is traditional SEO better than Social Media?
Even today the majority uses Search to get information
To understand this, you need to look at yourself. What do you do when you need to buy a mobile phone or join a yoga class? You invariably go to one of the popular search engines to look for the required information. So, it can be assumed that other people like you do the same as well. In fact, studies show that about 61% people use Google to find the products and services they are looking for. This means that it is definitely a profitable place to be in, where ranking well with target keywords can get you a whole lot of traffic.
Know what people are looking for
Search engines often have useful tools that can be used to find out what people are currently searching for. You can begin with Google AdWords Keyword Tool which is very effective. With it, you may not be able to determine exactly how many searches "dog foods" gets a month but you can at least find out that it is quite popular in the search engine and gets you much more clicks than the term "dog food".
Buy your way into results
Your hired SEO company will always advise you to use Google AdWords to buy your place in the sponsored links section, if you do not manage to reach the top position in a search engine. This feature comes with a bonus, which is that you can get your appearance customized in the SERPs.
How is Social Media better than Search?
Peer recommendations on social networks
Social network is popular with young adults who have been found to use social networking sites for product research. The best thing about these sites is that if you like a brand page, your connections can get to know about it, thereby helping you reach out to many more people.
Respond to criticism in real-time
One of the negative points about search engine results, apart from not getting a place in it at all, is that often negative things come up in it. This is the reason why online reputation management is so popular these days. However, in social media, you get a chance to respond to criticism in real-time.
Buy your place right in front of your target audience
With Facebooks ads, Promoted Tweets, StumbleUpon Ads etc., you can place your brand right in front of your target audience. This is a fabulous way of boosting traffic to your site, visibility of your messages on social networking sites and fans for your Facebook page.
Now that both media have been discussed, choose the one that is favourable for you and instruct your SEO company accordingly.

7 men pose as tourists at temple to take upskirt photos of girlsBy Mason White 3:24 AM December 18, 2015
|Woman with short skirt illustration
By: Wayne Morin
Police arrested seven men on a charge of indecent assault after allegedly taking upskirt photos of girls who came to visit a temple, police in Japan said.
Kyoto police said that they have arrested the seven men, who were not identified, after being accused of posing as tourists at the Kiyomizu Temple, where they took upskirt photos of numerous women and girls without their consent.
The men are between 31 and 52 years old.
According to the police investigation, the men chose the famous tourist destination to take pictures of the unsuspecting women as there are lots of people with cameras.
They also took photos of girls who visited the temple on school trips.
During questioning, the suspects told investigators that it was pretty easy to take upskirt photos because of the numerous stairs at the temple.
The incident came to light after several men posted the upskirt photos on the Internet, where they went viral.

Yaşar Anter/ Muğla, Sep 7 () – In Bodrum district in Aegean province of Muğla, migrants keep flocking to beaches to cross into Greek islands despite recent tragedies occurred off Aegean waters.
Despite the security measures, 80 migrants left in five different boats on late Sep. 6, then got caught by the storm facing death risk after 1.5 miles to Akyarlar beach while heading to Greek island of Kos.
Tens of thousands of Syrians have descended on Turkey's Aegean waters this summer, in attempt to board boats to Greece to flee the civil war in Syria, through their gateway to the European Union. Recently, two boat disasters have killed 12 people includign 8 children and the images sparked an outrage across the globe.
Security measures have been boosted in the region, as in Turgutreis, Bitez, Akyarlar and Ortakent-Yahşi neighbourhoods the gendarmerie took control over-land, while coast guard teams extended inspections by sea.
Dogan News Agency reporters' camera captured the moments where some of the migrants had to cross into Kos by clinging on the boat and swimming, due to lack of capacity for them. While a group reached the shore of Kos, another group was noticed while preparing for the journey in Aspat region of Bodrum.

GARDEN CITY - Two men are in the hospital after a crash along Chinden Boulevard.
Police responded to the crash at 9:19 p.m. Friday.
The Garden City Police Department says that, based on witness accounts, Christopher Abbott, 55, of Garden City, was exiting a parking lot near East 44th Street in his 1993 Buick Regal when a 1997 Dodge pickup truck heading west on Chinden struck Abbott's car on the passenger side.
The force of the collision caused Abbott to be thrown out of his car and onto the roadway.
Police say Timothy Garrett of Placerville was driving the pickup. Ada County Paramedics treated him at the scene.
Abbott and a man who was riding with him, 50-year-old Laurel McKenzie, were transported to Saint Alphonsus.
As of Saturday morning, Abbott was listed in critical condition, and McKenzie was listed as stable.
Because of the extent of the injuries suffered in the accident and evidence found at the scene, the Ada County crash reconstruction team responded to investigate.
Officers say drugs or alcohol may have been a factor in the cause of the accident.
The investigation continues, and no charges have been filed yet.

Thank you for MHO :)
Have an opinion?
I think it is fine, it's just a last name! I never really considered my husband just because of his last name. I once met a girl whose husband's last name was butt and they were considering changing it to GREY just because, it wasn't even a family name or close to one. I thought that was funny as heck. then my husband and I secretly joked about calling the BUTTS over for dinner... lol
I went to school with a bunch of kids with the last name love. They were really good at baseball and softball.
It's a nice last name.
Its a last name, it doesn't really matter to me that much...

text: Hello All, Had - yet again - some rather severe bucking (fuel cutoff I presume??) under full boost (~1.7bar)/throttle. Checked for codes & found a 2224 which is an overboost condition. Any immediate thoughts on causes? WGFV perhaps? Further data: after this occurs, if I start to again get into the throttle, I'll get a similar cutout while only achieving maybe 1.3bar and seems to even get progressively worse until I operate at more a steady-state condition for a mile or two... Any input is appreciated; no crisis as I don't demand full boost all that frequently but would like to sort it out... TIA. Chris Hemberger Amston, CT

Narrating the Training Video
Written by Ed Nowicki
0 Comments
This is the final installment in this multi-part series of articles on producing a law enforcement training video, from start to finish. You will finally be able to put the many pieces of the puzzle together.
The training video will probably contain interviews with experts, "live" video and re-enactments. However, no matter what basic format is used, some parts of the video will need to be narrated.
Proper narrating is an art. See if you can get a local radio or TV personality to do the narration. The pros know when to pause and what words to stress during narration. If you can't get a pro narrator, see if you can "volunteer" the chief, sheriff, another officer or someone's spouse with a professional sounding voice.
A narrator narrates from a specific script and the video shots and on-screen graphics are assembled over the narration. It's much easier to lay down a narrator's audio track in your editing program, and then trim the video without its audio or a very reduced audio level to fit the narrator's audio. It's almost impossible to put a video track into your editing program, and then try to pace the narration to exactly fit the video track. Narrate the audio first, then place the various video clips on the video track to exactly meet the audio track.
If getting a narrator fails, be prepared to be the narrator yourself. You'll need to write a script for what needs to be said. Write the script for the listener in words that are clear and easily understood. Slow down and think about how fast you are speaking. A slower pace with a pause can be very dramatic, just as a faster pace can add energy or intensity. An emphasis on certain words or phrases can be powerful. A long pause can be deafening during a dramatic incident, and so can an increase in the volume of accompanying music.
As you assemble your video program, you need to keep in mind the use of on-screen graphics to stress a major point. Understand that the graphics stress the point in just a few words. Use a clearly readably font which should stay on the screen from five to 10 seconds, but gravitate toward five seconds. Be aware of the color of the background, the font color and the contrast.
Remember, almost anyone in law enforcement today is acclimated to seeing broadcast quality productions, and not boring "talking head" droning. You'll need to keep the video's pace, the variety of topics, and the intensity in mind when editing.
When editing a video for the first time, it's awfully tempting to use some special transitions between scenes like page peels, overlaps, scale downs and others. Avoid these since they are the mark of an amateur, music videos aside. Simply use a regular cut or a cross dissolve from one scene to the next.
Don't try to emulate Hollywood productions. Try to focus the video so that learning takes place. If you miss an important scene, you may be able to shoot it again or look to use narration with an on-screen graphic, a still photo or a piece of relevant stock video.
Make sure your video flows and is easy to understand. Look at the video closely when completed and objectively look at it, although this isn't an easy task. You may want to ask a few others to also look at it. Don't have a "Yes" person initially review the video or an officer who complains about everything either. Chances are, you'll know if it's really good or not.
Strive for perfection, but don't expect it. If there are obvious mistakes or mistakes that send a wrong message, you'll need to make the changes. Changes are easy on the computer. Don't nitpick your review either. You'll probably see a few minor things that no one else will see.
Once you've completed the video editing, you should show the video to your supervisor before showing it to the officers. Eventually, the head of the agency and maybe a corporation counsel or legal advisor should approve the video for viewing.
You should take your video editing serious, but have some fun and enjoy the learning process. Feel proud of what you accomplished. After all, you've just done something that most officers haven't done. You produced a professional law enforcement training video. Congratulations!
