Everyone can't be Oscar De La Hoya.
As U.S. fans have watched five boxers in a row exit the games, two in the round of 32 and now three in the round of 16, they can easily recall the Gold Medalists of years past. We have had only three since 1992.
Yes, it's been 20 years since Oscar De La Hoya won Gold in Barcelona and became a star. David Reid would join the fraternity in 1996 and Andre Ward would follow suit in 2004. Pickings have otherwise been slim, a smattering of podium appearances.
After a 4-0 start through the first two days of the London Games, the U.S. suffered defeat at Light Heavyweight (Marcus Browne) and Light Welterweight (Jamel Herring) on days three and four. Wednesday, the U.S. team went from seven medal hopefuls to four, the round of 16 still underway.
Wednesday started with 19-year old Bantamweight Joseph Diaz Jr. of El Monte, California, falling to Cuba's 21-year old Lavaro Alvarez in a fight that should have been closer than it was going into the third and final round. Diaz ultimately fell by the score of 21-15, but one can wonder how the action might have unfolded differently had Diaz been credited for what appeared to be more than four scoring blows.
Diaz started off pressing while Alvarez, relaxed, moved about the ring, stopping to plant for flurries. To his credit, Diaz kept his guard tight and blocked well, Diaz in position to hook the body. The battle of southpaws favored Diaz just inside the halfway mark, a combination rocking Alvarez back on his heels. Alvarez found his balance and landed a nice right and then a left just inside a minute to go. Alvarez closed with a landing right to the head, Diaz answering with a hook downstairs. Alvarez led by one, 7-6, after the first.
Diaz landed a big left in the first thirty seconds, Alvarez playing at steadily moving hands. Alvarez clinched, Diaz digging to the ribs, and then Diaz landed a nice counter hook. Alvarez landed a nice right to the body and then left over the top, Diaz coming back with a shot upstairs. Alvarez landed two lefts while Diaz pursued him to the ropes and Diaz answered with a short shot to the head. Alvarez received three cautions in the round for holding but was given no official warning. The round appeared closer than the score of 7-4 in favor of Alvarez, but did nothing to aid Diaz who was down four points.
With a lead to play with, Alvarez had no reason not to keep tying up and wisely used movement to hold serve. Diaz landed two lead rights and then a stiff jab, Alvarez catching him shortly after with a lead right as Diaz pursued. Diaz landed a hammering left as Alvarez went to the corner. Alvarez, out of a clinch, nailed Diaz with a lead right. Diaz landed another nice left at about the thirty-second mark and applied what is best described as a headlock late to freeze Diaz. It was a competitive affair, but it did not appear Diaz had done enough to erase the lead. The final score proved that true at a mark of 21-15.
Diaz, to no surprise, was all class in assessing his performance. "Yeah, I thought the fight was closer. Don't get me wrong. Alvarez is a hell of a fighter…It wasn't God's plan for me to get a Gold Medal. God has other plans for me." Diaz indicated he'll likely be heading to the pro ranks and will be a marketable presence in the paid ranks.
Diaz would be joined in defeat by 24-year old Heavyweight Michael Hunter of Las Vegas, Nevada. Hunter took a lead into the third round but 27-year old Russian Artur Beterbiev tied the score at 10-10 and emerged victorious on a countback tiebreaker.
Hunter blocked a right to start and went to work with the jab after a quick scuffle. Beterbiev landed a nice right and Hunter replied with one moments later. Beterbiev blocked a right but took one before the round was half done. The fight got awkward, both men sort of falling over each other, Beterbiev landing a right in close. Beterbiev landed the last scoring blow, a right slightly blocked by the shoulder. Hunter led 4-3.
Hunter opened the second with a glancing left and then another quick lead left as he circled away. With Hunter on the ropes, Beterbiev pressed and landed a left uppercut. Hunter would land two rights at center ring, and a sliding left just past the halfway mark. They traded shots between clinches in the final minute and it ended even at 4-4. Beterbiev was unlucky to have not been further rewarded and appeared to do the better work in the second.
Hunter's one point lead wasn't much of a cushion and would not last. In a round marked by far too much clinching, much of it initiated by a fatiguing Hunter who suffered a bloody nose in close, the Russian was managing to sneak in some stiff jabs and short shots. Neither man landed anything of note in the final thirty seconds of an ugly fight. Beterbiev took the round at 3-2 and forced the tiebreaker.
By all appearances, the Russian had done enough to win anyways and Hunter, who played the game and clinch and pray, had no one to blame but himself. He'd fought hard early but ultimately outsmarted himself in trying to protect, rather than expand, his lead. Hunter took credit for the loss. "I feel like my legs was a little tired early. No excuses. I just didn't follow the game plan." Hunter said he'd had "fun while it lasted," even if he wished it had gone longer. He spoke to his father being proud looking down on him and surely any father would be proud that their son was an Olympian. Hunter is the son of late former Heavyweight contender Mike "The Bounty" Hunter.
The third defeat of the day was no surprise. 26-year old Super Heavyweight Dominic Breazeale Of Alhambra, California, entered the Games a work in progress, spending most of his athletic life playing football. 22-year old Magomed Omarov rocked Breazeale and outclassed him, sending him back to continue his learning somewhere other than the Olympics by a score of 19-8.
Breazeale gave his best from the start, coming out with a hard left and trying a big right. Omarov began to time rights inside as Breazeale swung wide and Breazeale was given a standing eight. Breazeale was fine to go on but struggled to land. Omarov landed a nice southpaw lead right hook and, in the final minute, forced Breazeale to the ropes and landed a right over the top. The round ended with the Russian up 5-0.
Omarov got a caution early in the second for rabbit punching and Breazeale tried to find his jab, landing a right but then getting walloped and having to hold. Another right landed for the American and a nice left to the body. Omarov stayed close, landing a right lead out of the clinch. Breazeale kept plugging away, with some success downstairs, but Omarov landed another wicked straight left late and built his lead. Omarov won the second 8-4.
Omarov opened the third with a landing hook. Breazeale landed a thudding right but the Russian ducked away and covered before anything could follow up. Breazeale continued to plug forward, looking for a prayerful right and never quit but it was Omarov landing enough to expand his lead and secure victory. To Breazeale's credit, he got better as the fight went on, losing the third 6-4 for his best round of the fight.
Breazeale stated fairly after the fight, "I gotta' get more experience." There was much to recommend Breazeale for the future even in defeat. He'll need sure fine-tuning, but a careful build in the professional ranks could give him that. He showed heart and enough athleticism to make him worthy of continued effort in developing him as a fighter.
Now, hope for Gold turns to Rau'shee Warren (Flyweight), Jose Ramirez (Lightweight), Errol Spence (Welterweight), and Terrell Gausha (Middleweight). The talent remains to top the anemic medal count of 2008, a Bronze for Heavyweight Deontay Wilder being the lone moment of U.S. glory. Spence appears to have the toughest draw prior to the quarterfinals, but Gausha is matched tough as well.
None of it means the end for the members of the U.S. squad. Twenty years is a long time, but it doesn't feel long and we turn again to the De La Hoya year. While he was the only Gold Medalist, the team picked up medals at Flyweight (Bronze, Tim Austin) and Middleweight (Silver, Chris Byrd). Both fighters would go on to notable careers and titles at Bantamweight and Heavyweight respectively.
Three fighters who did not reach the medal rounds found professional gold as well. The late Vernon Forrest (Light Welterweight) was the consensus 2002 Fighter of the Year when he bested Shane Mosley for the lineal Welterweight king. Raul Marquez (Light Middleweight) won a belt at 154 lbs. Memorably, Montell Griffin (Light Heavyweight) picked up the first win over Roy Jones Jr. on a 1997 disqualification, winning the WBC 175 lb. title, and was a steady contender for years.
History says the Olympics need only be a beginning. What Wednesday's defeated men do from here will determine whether London was a brief highlight in their fistic lives or a launching pad to something greater.
We root for the men who remain to win Gold. We root for them all in whatever they do once the London flame is extinguished.
Win or lose, they're our guys.

Cliff's Notes… Good for AIBA in deciding to overturn the horrendous outcome in the Shimizu fight. The Japanese battler scored what should have been a stoppage and was robbed in the scoring. One of these days, someone in the pros is going to have the balls to do the same thing for an egregious outcome. It hasn't happened yet, and the Vegas books would melt down, but it would send a powerful message. Boxing needs an enema.

|Marantz Announces the Flagship SR7005 Receiver
|Home Theater News AV Receiver News
|Thursday, 08 July 2010
Of course, you're not buying a receiver just for the looks. The SR7005 sports a 400Mhz, 32-bit Sharc DSP from Analog Devices that handles all the audio decoding in addition to a wide array of features from Audyssey, like Dynamic EQ and MultEQ XT PRO. It's also got Dolby ProLogic IIz for vertical surrounds.
The 7005 has a total of six HDMI 1.4 inputs, including one in the front for those temporary hookups. Thanks to Anchor Bay's ABT2015 chipset, everything that goes into the SR7005 comes out in 1080p. The current feedback amplifier circuit in the 7005 was originally created for SACD playback, so it's no stranger to lossless audio. It's made of Marantz's own HDAMs and an oversized low-impedance transformer.
There's also a built-in digital media player, which allows you to grab music from networked PCs or NAS drives for playback on your receiver. And of course, an iPod compatible USB drive sits right on the front, ready for playback. The SR7005 will be arriving this August at a price of $1,599.

If you can't be there in person, what's the best way to watch a Blackhawks game?
In the third person. At least that's what Jimmy thinks.
Sitting in the lap of Luxury, who's currently touring local gentleman's clubs.
Much like Zac Efron, I'll be covered in face paint.
This question would've been harder back when they weren't on TV.
At Jimmy's place ... he's got bourbon to drink and hookers for intermissions.
What song would you have played over the PA when you scored a hockey goal?
"The Thermos Song."
Well, I was saving this for my funeral, but "Baby Got Back."
"Olde Tyme Hardcore" by Slapshot. Who doesn't love puck rock?
The Spice Girls, "Spice Up Your Life." Imagine hockey fans singing along -- see? Funny.
"Just My Imagination" by The Temptations. No explanation needed.
The White Sox play one of baseball's best in Toronto this weekend. How will that go?
It's baseball, anything can happen. But this is an awful White Sox team, so it won't.
The older Sox will defect to Canada for the health-care benefits.
It'll be hard for the Sox to overcome the power of B-Jays.
Not well. The Hawks already claimed Chicago's win over Canadians.
If a couple of the players can find some slump-busters, they will do just fine.
With the Cubs near the same record as last year, what reason do fans have to panic?
Aramis hurt, Big Z hurt, bullpen blows, bench is thin, rotation disappointing, Cards and Brewers playing great ... .
How about two pitchers have higher batting averages than Derrek Lee and Milton Bradley?
I'm sorry, I don't curse in print.
I think we can all figure this out.
They're Cub fans, what reason DON'T they have to panic?
What happens during Bump Day at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway?
I lose my virginity, and Tracy begins a lifelong addiction to cocaine.
It's held at a racetrack in Indiana, so are you sure it's not Bum Day?
Congenital birth defects.
All I can picture now is people chest-bumping in the stands ... hehe.
Danica Patrick tries to pick fights with the other drivers.

It goes without saying that the job search can be a frustrating, time-consuming process. As a prospective candidate, you'll most likely be tailoring each resume to the position, making yourself look as attractive as possible. Therefore, you don't want to hold yourself back with elementary mistakes. If you've been sending out applications without any success, you may want to re-evaluate your job searching methods. The following are examples of mistakes that, while common, can deteriorate your chances for success:
1). Relying Solely on Job Postings
If your job search has been fueled solely by listings and announced openings, then you may be searching for quite a while. Hundreds to even thousands of applicants are competing for a single job, increasing the chances that your resume will be lost in the mix. Instead, try to use a more direct approach when it comes to job searching, whether it be through networking or contacting the job poster directly. Be as proactive as possible to ensure that your resume is seen by the right eyes.
2). Failure to Customize
Are you sending the same resume and cover letter to every applicant in order to save time? If so, this is a big mistake – the failure to customize will give your resume a static look, making it easy to ignore. Instead, read as much on the company as you can and address your interest in your cover letter. Tailor your experience and skills according to the position details, in order to demonstrate your qualifications.
3). Not Keeping Communications Professional
Job seekers often compose hundreds of emails and cover letters throughout their search. It's likely that a typo or error will fall in the mix: however, the little details can be the deciding factor in whether your email is read or not. One important tip is to ensure that you're using a professional email address. Instead of a vanity name, use a variation of your first and last names with a Gmail account. In addition, avoid common faux pas such as mixing up the gender of the manager, as this can result in your emails being sent to the trash bin.
4). Not Using your Time Wisely
While job hunting is a full-time job in itself, there are a number of ways to break up the monotony. If you find yourself with a wealth of free time, try to use this opportunity to bolster your resume. For example, if you're looking for a position as a web developer, making samples of websites can be a great way to practice your skills. In addition, community managers can bolster their experience by joining forums and taking part in a niche group. From volunteer opportunities to classes, there are an endless number of ways to make the most of your time. Use your free time to learn and enhance your skills, making yourself a more attractive candidate.
5). Not Following Up
If you've just come out of an interview, or met a contact at a networking event, make sure you don't forget to follow up! Following the meeting, you should send them an email or note, thanking them for allowing the opportunity to meet with you. However, avoid sending them constant messages or soliciting for favors, as this will make you seem needy. This practice will leave a favorable impression, increasing the likelihood that they'll keep you in mind for the future.

Chicken Nugget Recall 2014: Applegate Nuggets Recalled For Plastic Contamination [PHOTO]
A potential contamination with plastic particles has resulted in the recall of over 15,000 pounds of Applegate's fully cooked and frozen chicken nuggets, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety Inspection Service (FSIS) announced Tuesday.
Applegate Naturals Chicken Nuggets in 8-ounce boxes with the "best before" date of Feb. 5, 2015, bearing the establishment number "P2617," are reportedly at risk of potentially containing "extraneous materials," FSIS reports. Approximately 15,306 pounds of the potentially defective product, produced in Perdue's Gainsville, Georgia, establishment, were shipped and sold via retail outlets nationwide.
"The problem was discovered after the firm received consumer complaints that small pieces of plastic were found in the products," FSIS confirmed in a press release.
"The raw chicken for our nuggets is stored in plastic containers prior to being put through a grinder. A piece of plastic from one of the containers became dislodged and commingled with the raw chicken," Applegate said of the contamination's cause. "This was an isolated issue and did not impact any other products."
Despite classifying the voluntary recall as a class II, a potential health hazard, no injuries have been reported in connection to the recalled items. Consumers concerned about a potential injury or illness are being advised to contact a health care provider.
Customers affected by the recall can return any defective items to their original place of purchase for a full refund. For more information, contact Applegate online at email@example.com, or by calling (866) 587-5858.

Mr. Lacrosse winner Jake Heppner scored twice and added an assist -- all in the first quarter -- as Eastview took a lead it would never relinquish as the Lightning knocked off Eden Prairie 10-4 to win their first state championship in the program's history and the first boys championship in any sport in the school's 16-year existence.
The Lightning struck early and with a vengeance, jumping out to a four-goal advantage and leading 7-2 at the half on Thursday, June 7, at Chanhassen High School in Chanhassen.
Eden Prairie was much more competitive in the second half, but the Eagles didn't play well enough to muster a comeback.
The Eagles attacked the net and displayed great passing but Eastview goaltender Andrew Koenen stuffed them time and time again, stifling the high-powered offense and allowing four goals.
Koenen who made 16 saves, stopping a sterling 80 percent of shots faced.
Star attackman Ryan McNamara had a goal and an assist and had two shots while senior Erik Gage had a goal and three assists.
Junior Jake Woodring led Eden Prairie with three points (two goals, one assist) while midfielder Nic Bentz scored once and dished an assist.
Eagles' goaltender Anthony Perkins only mustered three saves while allowing ten goals.
-- Walker Orenstein, MN Lax Hub staff
1. Jake Heppner, Eastview
What a finish for the Mr. Lacrosse winner. Last game, senior year, state championship game, and he comes up with a game-high four points on two goals and two assists. He was dominant early, and that was all the Lightning needed to capture the title.
2. Andrew Koenen, Eastview
Koenen was nothing short of fantastic, making 16 saves on 20 shots. Every time Eden Prairie would get rolling with long possessions and momentum, the senior goalie would come up with a save to bail Eastview out. Allowing one goal per quarter to the Eden Prairie's typically dynamic offense is quite the accomplishment.
3. Jake Woodring, Eden Prairie
The junior had a nice game for the Eagles and was the only one who found any success against Eastview's defense and Koenen's goaltending. He finished the night with two goals and an assist while firing 14 shots, two of which slammed into goalposts.

This year those closest to us are giving back to reduce the financial concerns that Olin students may have and to ensure that the physical shape of campus adapts to meet the changing needs of the Olin Community. Below you will find how our alumni and trustees are making a difference with their philanthropy by starting four new funds.
Two groups of alumni have started the Alumni Merit Scholarship Fund and the Charlie Nolan Candidate Endowment Fund. Through the generosity of two of our trustees, we now have the Charlie Nolan International Student Fund and the Library Reinvention Fund.
Update: Thanks to your donations, the leadership of Matt Colyer '07, Yrinee Michaelidis '07 and Brendan Quinlivan '14, and the 2014's class gift, the Alumni Merit Scholarship Endowed Fund exceeded its goals for FY16. The endowed fund continues to grow and has a value of nearly $200,000 as of July 31, 2016. Again this year, each of the seniors in their eighth semester will receive an award of $75 in the fall or spring. This is an important step toward the Fund's goal of helping to reduce students' debt upon graduation. Your ongoing support now will increase the rate at which the endowment fund grows and the impact of future awards. To contribute to this fund, please click HERE. Thanks again for your continued investment!
The Charlie Nolan International Student Fund was set up by a generous member of Olin's Board of Trustees in honor of Charlie Nolan's retirement as Vice President and Dean of Admission. The Charlie Nolan International Student Fund provides need-based financial aid to incoming international students who live outside the United States with the objective of attracting high quality international students and enhancing the diversity of the overall student experience at Olin. To contribute to this fund, please click HERE.
Charlie Nolan's innovative and creative approach to college admissions at Olin College is unmatched. Olin College will forever be shaped by his efforts to build an exceptional student body that is truly and distinctively Olin. While we are sad to see him leave our campus, we are happy that he will be embracing the opportunities that retirement holds and we will cherish his lasting legacy at Olin. Through his years at Olin, Charlie has given his time, expertise, personal financial support and, most importantly, his individualized interest in the well-being of every student. In Charlie's honor, a group of dedicated alumni have created the Charlie Nolan Candidate Endowment Fund to ensure that no qualified candidate is denied the opportunity to attend Candidates' Weekend. Please read more HERE or contribute to this fund HERE.
The entire Olin Community has been calling for reimagining the library space as the vibrant heart of the campus. This is a natural outgrowth of both the development of a distinctive learning culture at Olin and also the continuous improvement of the college as an educational laboratory. Students, faculty, alumni and staff are now excitedly developing plans to transform the library into a vibrant environment for self-directed, innovative learning, an incubator for ideas, and a home for tools for the rapid prototyping of those ideas. For more information about the conceptual plan of the overall Library Reinvention, contact Jeff Goldenson and/or Aaron Hoover.
We are happy to announce that we have met our targeted goal for funding of the Library Reading Room, and construction is underway!
Please consider a gift to the Library Reinvention Fund today to help support the next stage in the transformation process by donating HERE.

Speculation abounds as Wilmington gets ready for 'Iron Man 3'
WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — There's a lot of buzz in the entertainment world about "Iron Man." Robert Downey Jr. stars as the super hero in "The Avengers," which opens next month. Meanwhile, the Port City is getting ready for "Iron Man 3," one of the biggest motion pictures in North Carolina history, to start shooting this spring.
Many entertainment publications say the film is code named "Caged Heat," but the Wilmington Regional Film Commission could not confirm any connection. All they could say is that "Caged Heat" is in production in Wilmington, but no information on "Iron Man 3" can be released at this time.
Other sources have new information on the production.
"Variety" reports that Oscar-winner Ben Kingsley is in final talks to be the villain in "Iron Man 3," but Marvel has not confirmed that. The trade publication says Downey, Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle and Scarlett Johansson have all signed on to reprise their roles.
Open casting calls for extras for "Caged Heat" have circulated on websites like comicbooknews.com with the first this weekend in Raleigh and another next weekend right here in Wilmington.
We tried to confirm this information, but the "Iron Man 3" office at Screen Gems says a publicist has not started yet, but as soon as they do, the casting information will officially be released.
For now though, it seems everyone is staying tight-lipped and top secret about all things Stark Industries.
We called Fincannon and Associates to find out if they knew anything about the casting calls. They said they were not casting the film. Instead another casting agency is handling extras.
The talent search in Raleigh this weekend on Saturday will be held at Crabtree Valley Mall from 10 am to 1 pm. No details have been released yet on the Wilmington casting call.

-Indiana's POV-
I finally had the house to myself for the night. My parents had to pull an all-nighter on their jobs. So, I was just chilling around in my boy shorts waiting for Prince to come over. Ten minutes later, my doorbell rang and Prince smiled at me, holding a bag from the Louis Vuittion store. I wrapped my arms around his neck and hugged him.
"Hey Baby. I got you something " He smiled widely.
"Really?" I squealed.
I let him inside and closed the door behind him. I sat on the couch and he handed me the gift. I opened it and found a Louie V backpack. I grinned from ear to ear. How did he know I wanted this?!?!?
"Ahhh thank you SO much babe! !" I walked over to him and kissed him.
The kissing went from cute little pecks, to long lustful lingering kisses. We moved from the middle of the living room to my room upstairs. Never breaking the kiss, Prince gently laid me down on the bed. He stopped kissing my lips and began kissing my neck. My legs trembled as he found my weak spot. He left a wet kiss there, and then began sucking on it. I arched my back in pleasure and let out a moan. I could feel he's
smiling, because his teeth began nibbling at my neck. My neck tingled as he kept sucking on my neck until there was a large hickey there. He traced his tongue around the hickey and started down to my earlobe. He nibbled on it for a little while, and then started kissing my shoulders.
He looked up at me with those beautiful caramel eyes and I nodded. He lifted the shirt over my head and stopped to admire me. He kissed me again. First. He cupped my breast. Then, the made his way to the back of my bra and unhooked it. I smiled and began taking off his shirt. He licked his lips and stared directly at my boobs. I bit my lip and winked at him.
He laid down on top of me and kissed me with more passion, more love, more .... romance. We wrestled with eachother, but Prince always ended on top. However, it gave me the advantage of taking off his jeans. He smiled as I gasped at the bulge forming outside of his Polo boxers.
"Love me like you doooo. Love me like you spool. Like you do. Hold me tight and don't let go...." my phone sang.
I got up, put on my top and answered it.
"IM MOVING BITCHES!" Shouted an ecstatic Ray.
I put him on speakerphone and Prince and I laughed as he fangirled. Ray had wanted to move from South Central for a long time.
"Where? " Prince asked, fully dressed.
"Lakefield County!!!"
"YESSSS!" I squealed.
I knew exactly where Ray was gonna live. I can't believe his family was buying the "party house" in Lakefield County.
The party house is where most movie directors shoot party scenes. Its because the house is so big and has so many beautiful features that they shoot them all there.
"Haha. So we'll be neighbors? "
"Pretty much." I giggled.
"I'm gonna miss Roc tho." Ray said a bit sad.
"Yeah...y'all got really close over the past couple months. I'm glad y'all worked stuff out." Prince said.
"Same. But, anyway, I gotta go for dinner. My dad's home from Iraq."
"Oh, wow. That's amazing Ray! Well, Imma let you go to dinner."
"Actually, I wanted to know if everyone could come over so y'all could meet my family."
I looked at Prince and he nodded. "Alright. We'll be there in 20."
"Okay, bye y'all "
"BYEE " We heard a high-pitched voice in the background.
Prince laughed, "Aye, Chres "
"Wassuhh? " Roc said.
"I can't. See y'all in a few." I giggled.
I hung up the phone and laughed with Prince.
"They are too silly!" I giggled.
"Word." He replied.
He then scooted close to my ear, "We'll finish this later" he nibbled on my earlobe once more and walked out my room

Tyler threw a fry at me.
"What the heck?" I asked, throwing it back at him.
"You're being really spacey," Tyler said, taking a bite of his burger.
"Sorry, I was just thinkin'," I shrugged, a smile on my face.
"About what?" He asked, his dark eyes watching me.
"This and that. What are you thinking about?"
"The end of my community service," he answered.
I choked on my shake. The end? Would he be leaving the forgotten network? After all, he wasn't with us by choice. I wanted to believe that he liked helping, liked working with the team, but, in reality, I could never guess with Tyler.
"I can hear the wheels turning in your head." Tyler grinned wildly at me, "giving your hamster a workout?"
"For your information, it's a gerbil," I teased back. "And what you said just-"
"Started you on a crazy Candace train of thought?" Tyler suggested.
I gave him a look, but sighed. "Something like that."
"Do you want to tell me?"
"Not really," I answered, finishing my meal and pushing it to the side like Tyler had.
"Can I guess?" He asked, raising his eyebrows mischievously.
"Knock yourself out," I encouraged.
Tyler thought for a second, twirling a ketchup packet between his fingers. Then he looked up at me. "To answer your question, no, I'm not leaving the network, I will continue to show up and bug you all every single day, well, almost every day, hopefully we don't have that many dead people."
I stared, mouth hanging open. "How did you . . . ?"
He shrugged, not sharing in my amazement. "You're predictable."
I've been called a lot of things in my life, but predictable has never been on of them. Until now, that is. "I'm not!" I protested.
"You're as predictable as the sun, don't try to deny it. You always eat the same thing for lunch, for example. You skip work as much as possible, at least once a day you complain about your job, usually to me. Every Thursday you drag either me or Lindsey to get burgers," he waved at the remains of our supper, "and every Friday you doll up Lindsey and take her out to the bars. How is that not predictable?" He smiled.
I drew only one thing from his mini-speech: Tyler Davies knew me to well, which really wasn't fair, since I couldn't predict his every move like he seemed to be able to do to me. "And you aren't predictable?" I raised my eyebrows, disbelieving.
"Nope, not in the least," Tyler said, sounding confident.
"Prove it," I challenged, not sure how he would do it, but interest to see what he would do.
"All right," he agreed, letting out a breath. He leaned over the table and kissed me for a few perfect seconds. Then he pulled away. His taste still lingering on my lips. "How predictable was that?"
"About as predictable as this," I muttered, pulling him down for another kiss.
I originally planned for this to be different, but I like the end resault, what about you? I don't own The Forgotten.

It's a feeling…
Londolozi's powerful combination of geography and wildlife creates the famous atmosphere that returning guests call the 'Londolozi feeling'.
Londolozi is situated on the Sand River in the very heart of the Sabi Sand Game Reserve. This reserve forms part of the Greater Limpopo Transfrontier Park, a vast and growing area that currently covers six million acres and incorporates the famous Kruger National Park. Wild animals move freely across this vast space, offering spectacular game viewing and a true wilderness experience.
Breeding herds of elephant and buffalo roam throughout Londolozi, while white rhino and lion concentrations are among the highest recorded on the African continent.
Yet it's the leopards of Londolozi that make us world famous for wildlife, and lie at the heart of the Londolozi feeling. Over the course of three decades, a unique relationship has developed between our rangers and trackers and generations of wild leopards. Intimate leopard sightings are frequent here, an experience that our guests agree is a pinnacle life experience.
We believe in safari as a journey that delights the senses and enlivens the spirit. To have an encounter with wild animals in the African bush is to discover an essential truth about ourselves and our world. For all of us who live the Londolozi feeling, our deepest wish is to give you the chance to experience this singular and magical encounter.
Our Values
The Varty family values infuse every aspect of Londolozi's service: our personal approach, commitment to conservation, the ambience of simplicity and elegance, and the warm welcome guests receive on arrival.
We are a socially, economically and environmentally responsible business. Londolozi is a privately owned game reserve built on solid foundations and almost a century of family history: exploring new frontiers, exceeding expectations, and welcoming all who cross our threshold.
True to its name, Londolozi has become a place that kindles the aspiration for a better collective future. It represents the dream of a planet abounding in open spaces, where wild animals and people live together in dignity and harmony.
The Londolozi Intentions
The Londolozi values are apparent in its development as a social enterprise supporting the Good Work Foundation (GWF). The GWF has established a number of Digital Learning Centres in rural South Africa, offering a world-class education to thousands of young adults and children. Other Londolozi social enterprises include the maintenance of safe havens for rhino in the reserve and advancing the green frontiers by placing more land under wildlife in partnership with the neighbouring communities.
We firmly believe that our reserve is part of a larger movement towards a global village mentality, towards human integration with the natural world, and towards the creation of new systems of living. It is our values and our vision that make Londolozi unlike any other game lodge in the world.
As Londolozi evolves into becoming a social enterprize its intentions are:
- Redefine the essence of safari in Africa
- Pursue a greater commitment to our rivers from our country's leaders
- Be of service
- To create a bushveld home where people can reconnect with nature, their families, friends and themselves.
- Pioneer a blueprint for new systems for living in harmony with each other and the earth.
- Maintain Londolozi as a safe haven for rhino and all other wild life.
- Continue to support the Good Work Foundation, of which Londolozi is a founder sponsor. The GWF is advancing digital, environmental, emotional and english literacy across rural South Africa.

Med Seeks to Sign on to UT Clinic — Proposed Building Would Be Profit Source
By Daniel Connolly
The Regional Medical Center at Memphis plans to ask the University of Tennessee Health Science Center about participating in its plan to build a new clinical office on Union that would attract paying patients.The Med's interest in the project reflects its desire to earn money and turn around a projected $14.4 million operating loss this fiscal year.
Hospital board chairman Gene Holcomb said Thursday that he wants The Med's new interim CEO, Claude Watts Jr., to approach UT executives about working together.
The Med runs large outpatient clinics, and Holcomb said he doesn't want the organizations to compete against each other, unless it's clear that this is what both sides want.
UT Health Science Center chief of staff Kennard D. Brown said the university works with many hospitals and other health care organizations.
"We will be glad to discuss additional opportunities to extend these partnerships and better serve the greater Memphis community and the region," he said.
The Med is losing money because it offers expensive services such as trauma and burn care and treats many patients who lack health insurance.
In August, only 6 percent of its patients had insurance through commercial providers such as BlueCross BlueShield of Tennessee, which pay at relatively high rates and can help offset the cost of charity care.
UT officials first mentioned the construction plans Tuesday at a meeting with hospital leaders and state legislators.
The university plans to tear down an unused building near the intersection of Union and Dunlap and replace it with a new building where patients could visit dentists, doctors, nurse practitioners and pharmacists affiliated with UT. Students would also practice there.
Currently, UT offers such services at buildings scattered throughout its campus. A new building could help draw paying patients, UT Health Science Center chancellor Dr. Pat Wall said earlier this week.
The university would use patient revenues to fund the project, which would cost an estimated $40 million.
The new clinical building would be part of a package of university construction and renovations that would cost roughly $250 million over the next five years, Wall said.
The state budget is tight, and the university plans to raise much of the money itself through donations and grants for scientific research.
Many details of the construction plan are still tentative, university leaders said earlier this week.
At a hospital finance committee meeting Thursday, Holcomb expressed frustration that he hadn't known about UT's plans until he read them in The Commercial Appeal.
University spokeswoman Sheila Champlin wouldn't comment.
UT and The Med are a short distance apart from one another in the medical district and work together extensively. For example, many of the doctors and other staffers who work at The Med have faculty appointments at UT.
Also Thursday, hospital board member Darrell Thomas called for The Med to place more of its cash reserves at , a black-owned organization. He said The Med should support minority-owned businesses.
After some discussion, Holcomb told Thomas to approach the bank and see if owners would offer an interest rate comparable to what it's getting in a money market account at First Tennessee Bank, part of publicly traded First Horizon National Corp. If so, The Med might move roughly $5 million to the bank, he said.
- Daniel Connolly: 529-5296
New construction plans at UT
Build a $50 million laboratory research building. Support from organizations such as the National Institutes of Health would pay for it.
Raise $10 million in private donations to remodel the Dunn Dental Building.
Improve the General Education Building using $3million in state funding already in hand.
Convert the old Nash and Crowe research buildings into office space in a project that would start years from now.

File Synchronization with Unison
On this blog, I previously covered file synchronization with rsync. The benefit of rsync is that it allows for incremental synchronization of files and directories and is very fast and secure over local and remote connections. The drawback of rsync is that it only syncs files one way or the other. In other words, the file that was last modified takes precedence and overwrites the older file.
In some situations, however, you may have two unique servers with files that are regularly modified on both ends. In such a case, having one file overwrite the other, would erase the data from the other file. Unison is a file synchronizer that takes the changes from each file and copies or merges them. This is useful for backups, synching, and server clusters.
To sync two directories containing files, simply enter from the command line:
unison /path/to/files /path/to/otherfiles
The output will look like
Contacting server…
Connected [//home-computer//path/to/files -> //home-computer//path/to/otherfiles]

I have a situation that has happened before and is happening lately that I have not sought an answer till now. Take for instance the following post:
Major celebrity in the Taiwanese POP culture so understandably pictures like these get downloaded and rehosted across all their fan sites. The question I have involves images that are stored on wordpress.com servers. When someone links to the one or more of the images there such as
would that count as one hit or page view each time someone clicks on that page? Coz, despite clearly stating conditions in which the images can be linked, these fans who are often clueless about the IP crimes there commit continue to rehost them on their forums thinking and I lose traffic. So, IP matters aside, I would like to know if it makes any difference to my traffic whether or not an image is hotlinked or otherwise before I attempt to contact the parties involved?

Johns brilliance troubles Dragons
Page Tools
No longer a threat ... Trent Barrett tackles Andrew Johns of Newcastle, whose season ends with the wooden spoon despite their late-season surge.
Photo: Craig Golding
There was genuine relief in the St George Illawarra dressing room after yesterday's win over Newcastle, and not just because the Dragons had hung on to record their seventh successive win and secure a second chance in the finals series.
"Thankfully we're not going to come up against another Andrew Johns in the finals," said St George Illawarra captain Trent Barrett.
On recent form, only three teams appear capable of winning the play-offs - and one of them won't be there after the Knights finished the season with the wooden spoon. But they did provide the Dragons with the perfect warm-up.
Prop Jason Ryles later admitted he had feared looking "like a goose" after performing two push-ups in the in-goal, after crashing over for a second-half try, as a pre-meditated joke about the hotel incident that last week caused Barrett to be fined $2000.
Realising the game would go down to the wire, Barrett was too focused to notice but said he enjoyed the fan who ran onto the field at full-time and began doing the same thing in his underwear until security removed him.
"I'm just happy that game is out of the road," Barrett said. "It got close at the end and they've been playing well, so first against last could have been dangerous for us.
"We've got big things to come, I think, we've got Cronulla next week, so we've just got to totally forget about that game now; it's a new comp now."
After winning just one of their first six games this season, Barrett described the joint-venture team's fightback to finish second to Parramatta as a great effort and said the next month represented St George Illawarra's best chance at premiership glory.
Following the disappointment of last year, when the fifth-placed Dragons were eliminated after an opening round of finals upsets, the Nathan Brown-coached outfit is now determined to beat the Sharks at WIN Stadium to be just one win away from the grand final.
"There was a lot of criticism and a lot of heat on the coach, the captain and the players at the start of the season, and we've gone from dead last to equal first," Barrett said.
"It's the highest finish we've ever had and the next month is going to be exciting. Finishing one and two is an advantage providing we win next week. It was important for us to finish top two and we've done that."
Ahead 22-6 after a first half described by Knights coach Michael Hagan as probably the Dragons' best 40 minutes of the season, the premiership favourites had to withstand a fightback inspired by Johns's brave decision to defy an early shin injury.
Due to fly to England today to begin his well-publicised Super League stint with Warrington, Johns began hobbling after a seventh-minute tackle on Shaun Timmins and was clearly troubled by the injury but remained on the field.
Despite declining to take a conversion attempt of the 45th-minute George Carmont try he helped set up, Johns was instrumental in Brad Tighe scoring six minutes later and slotted the goal from the sideline to suddenly reduce the home side's lead to 22-16.
A Michael Ennis penalty goal gave St George Illawarra an eight-point buffer but when NSW Origin captain Danny Buderus put Blues teammate Steve Simpson over for his second try in the 61st minute, an upset was brewing.
Ryles again gave the Dragons breathing space when he crossed six minutes later, but when Tighe grabbed his second try in the 71st minute the match hung in the balance until Wes Naiqama scored just before full-time.
"I think Joey is the greatest ever player to have played so to not have him there [in the finals] is going to be good for a lot of teams," Brown said. "But all the sides that are in there have got good players in key spots so it's still going to be tough it's just that he's the best of them."
Brown said centre Matt Cooper would return against Cronulla after missing two games with a hamstring injury.

After having several strange issues with my Leapfrog Creatr Dual, my printer suddenly started loosing his location during the print. This happened several times with different setting, so I eventually had to stop every print.
I was told that the firmware needs to be reset or updated in order to fix this.
Does anyone know how to do that and which software to use exactly? I tried to find something on this homepage, but I seems that everything was removed. I also tried to find alternative instructions and software on other sites, but they all lead me back here eventually, where I got the message that the page does not exist any more.
I am really desperate right now, can anybody help me please?
Thank you very much,
It seems unlikely that a firmware problem would cause this.
Make sure that the set screws (grub screws) on the pulleys on the X and Y axis stepper motors are tight.
Also check that the clamps on the Y axis belts are tight.
Home the print head and then see if you it you can move it with your hand. It should be difficult to move.
Then disable the motors and make sure the print head moves easily. You may need to clean and oil the bearing rods.
To update the firmware you need to get the latest version from Leapfrog by putting in a support ticket. (The version of firmware depends on your specific build.)
The instructions for uploading the firmware are in the User Manual. There are links to the manual on the index page of this forum.
A couple more thoughts:
A loose wire or bad end stop switch could cause this problem (The little switches that are used to home the print head.) These switches are normally "closed" so a loose connection or bad switch will cause the printer to lose it's place. It will also generate an end stop hit error in the log file of the host software but if you have verbose mode turned on (the default) it will scroll of the top of the screen before you see it. Copy and paste the log into notepad so that you can look for errors, or turn off verbose mode so that only errors are shown on the screen.
A loose stepper motor wire might cause this also.
Print a large hollow cylinder and start moving the wires while it's printing to see if you can make the problem happen.
Thank you very much!
All the screws are tight and I experienced just what you said when I tried to move the Print head.
I already got the Firmware and finished my first print, which was really ok.
However, I experienced something strange after the print was finished. I could not control the movement in the X-axis any more. The print head would only move to the right side, but not back again. The other axis seem to work fine. The same Thing occurs when I stop midprint. As soon as I reconnect the Printer, everything is fine again,.
What could be the reason for this?
I will also try to find out, if the wires caused a Problem.
If that is the reason, how can it be fixed?
Thank you so much for your help!
Ok, so does that mean, that the print will continue without Troubles after pausing it? Because I would like to print something very large and I will definitely have to Change the Filament. Or is it better if I fill both Extruders and activate the second as soon as the first runs out of Filament?
Ok, thank you!
I will report as soon as I get (or don't get) results...
I started printing yesterday and everything seemed to be ok so far, although the printer lost the y-postition again, but only during the first layer.
During the second layer, the filament did not stick on the first layer correctly, but since there was a knot in the material, I supposed that this caused the tensions. Or could there be another reason for this? I had the same problem with a completely different filament and different settings, but there was also a knot in it.
Furthermore the surface got 'bubbles'. I experienced that on a few other prints before, also with different settings and filaments (btw I use PLA). I used to think that the filament might have been wet, but since it occured with different new filaments...
I continued the print nontheless, since it seemend to get better after five layers or so, but during the nighttime, the print suddenly broke from the bed. At some point the
filament appearently stopped flowing, and the printer continued empty.
Furthermore it appeared that the support material was only generated
after about six or seven layers. Is this a slicing mistake?
I did not think all of this this would be a serious problem, but then I discovered that I lost control over all the axis. It is not even possible to send the printer back to the home position.
What shall I do now? Shall I upload the firmware again? Or is there something seriously damaged?
Thank you,
Hi Jeff!
Thank you for your reply and sorry for my late answer!
I already tried to print with different Settings, but it seemed, that the printer head was not stable. It seemed that it somehow slipped, if that is the correct word.
Leapfrog replaced the Motherboard of my Printer, so maybe that was part of the Problem. So far I can not say much about that, because I have not been able to test the new Motherboard yet. But to be honest, I am not sure, if that was really the Problem..,.
However, I will definitely try your Suggestion and Report as soon as I get results.
Thank you for your help!
were you able to test the new motherboard, I have similar problem with my HS now
Do you want an honest answer? Well... I am about to return the Printer to my reseller. Since more and more Troubles appeared, theyargeed to take the Printer back and give me a different model in return.
But to answer your quesion: The Motherboard helped a Little, but not a lot. Eventually I could regain control of the y- and z-axis, but the x-axis never worked correctly again. The Quality of the prints did not get better as well. Do you have Pictures or videos of the prints? They might be helpful!
Sorry, that I can not help you more!
Best wishes and good luck with the Printer - You will Need it!
Dear Alexandra,
actually I solved the problem , it was exactly the X axis grab holder problem. (for my problem )
for video :
I heard that creatr was very problematic, since the extruder completely changed seems problems "changed" not disappeared.
I can not recommend you to purchase creatr hs because it has other design issues (for example new fan design under the extruders is very very bad idea. It melts after first print ).

FOXBORO — There were many times during Shalrie Joseph's 91â"2-year spell with the Revolution when he would play against a few of his teammates during a training session.
Not a single one of those instances prepared the Revs for the task that awaits them this evening.
Joseph likely will take the field for Chivas USA tonight (8, CSN) in his first outing against his former club since the Revolution shipped him to Southern California on Aug. 1.

Mass. ranks at the bottom for minority homeownership
Massachusetts ranks at the bottom compared to other states in the rate of homeownership by people of color, according to data recently released by a think tank in Washington.
Among homes that were owned in Massachusetts in 2011, 32 percent were owned by households of color compared to 69 percent that were owned by whites, according to the Corporation for Enterprise Development.
The gap between minority homeowners and white homeowners puts the state at the bottom of the national pack. In Massachusetts, that ratio of white homeowners to minority homeowners is 2.15 compared to, say, New Mexico, where the ratio is the smallest in the nation at 1.11.
Only New York ranks lower than Massachusetts, with just 28.5 percent of its homes owned by people of color and a 2.32 ratio between white homeownership and minority homeownership.
While the report that CFED issued on Jan. 30 is the most recent assessment of this disparity in Massachusetts, previous reports have shown similar gaps.
"It's a really sad reflection of the overall racial wealth gap in Massachusetts," said Margaret Miley, executive director of the Midas Collaborative in Allston, a local partner for the CFED's report. "We've got a lot of segregation. We've got communities of color where people are not gaining these assets."
The situation has only grown worse for people of color since 2004, when minorities owned 38.7 of owner-occupied homes in Massachusetts compared to the 32 percent in 2011.
Affordable housing advocates say there are a number of factors at work, including the high cost of housing in Massachusetts and the state's large rental housing stock. Other factors, they said, include a historic lack of access to credit, discriminatory mortgage practices, and the fact that minorities generally have less financial support from their families.
The total rate of homeownership in Massachusetts has fallen since 2005, a trend that complicates the problem, said Kasey Wiedrich, a CFED researcher. The total rate of homeownership in Massachusetts fell to 62.1 percent in 2011 from 64 percent in 2005, according to CFED, making the state among the lowest 10 states for homeownership rates.
And Massachusetts is also among the nation's least affordable places, Wiedrich said. In 2011, Massachusetts was the third most expensive state in which to buy a home, beaten only by Hawaii and California.
"If I went to Atlanta and bought a house for what I'd pay for a condo in Boston, I'd probably be sitting on five acres and you'd think I'm the governor," said Darnell Williams, president of the Urban League of Eastern Massachusetts.
Minorities have a much harder time accumulating wealth without homeownership as a foundation, Williams said. A study released in February by Brandeis University showed that the number of years that families have owned their homes is a major contributor to the gap in wealth between whites and minorities.
"We receive less inheritance and less money for the down payment on a home," Williams said. "So we end up in the renting category and the buying category."
This becomes an even bigger concern, Williams said, as minorities reach retirement age and are on a fixed income, when they have less money coming in but continue to pay the same rent.
This problem may not be new, Miley said, but it is still discouraging.
"The acuteness of the racial wealth divide has been around for a while," Miley said. "It's dispiriting to see it's still there."

Reviews of A is for Alibi (1982)
Review by tollbaby (2005-04-28)
I really like the fact that the Kinsey Millhone books are written in first person, like the old detective stories. She's a very human, very likable character. A is for Alibi is our introduction to Kinsey, and it's a darn good one.
I was a bit disappointed by the fact that already, in the first book in the series, Grafton alludes to all kinds of past events and insider info... I felt sort of like I'd missed something. But apparently as the series wears on, more of this background gets filled in.
Innumerable plot twists and characters you love to hate at every turn don't keep this mystery from being a bit predictible, but it was a good, fast-paced read, and there was an element of surprise. The dénouement was a bit anti-climactic though (all that action leading up to.... what?) The narration picks up again later on and explains what happened, but I wasn't satisfied.
Not my favorite Grafton novel, by any means, but an okay start to the series. My liking for the main character probably colored my rating somewhat, but to be perfectly honest, if this had been my first foray into this series, I wouldn't have continued.
Review by hulabob (2004-07-22)
For me it was time for a new series. Boredom over the summer led me to the used bookstore, and to 'A is for Alibi.' It's okay. Will I read B is for Whatever? Probably. Will I keep reading to Z? Probably not. The writing is just predictable enough that investing a whole lot of time and excitement isn't worth it. I enjoyed it, but I think my copy will find its way back to the used bookstore fairly soon.
After struggling to find other passable crime fiction, I've settled on the idea that Grafton's novels are really pretty good. While my copy of 'A is for Alibi' did go back to the used bookstore, 'F is for Fugitive' and 'G is for Gumshoe' are currently on my shelf. Grafton does a good job of somehow not falling into the absolutely frustrating contrived plots that so many other authors in her genre do.

Fasting Your Way to Glory
Full Product Description
Fasting Your Way to Glory talks about the why and how of biblical fasting, the right and wrong ways of fasting, and the many physical and spiritual benefits you derive from making fasting a lifestyle. The author shares her personal experiences on how fasting influenced her life from teenager to adulthood. She says, "Eating constantly for a whole week or month exposes you to the danger of contracting one disease or another. The stomach does not have time to rest and clean up or renew itself. The cells are not renewed, so they continue to wear out. It may be challenging to change your eating habits all of a sudden, but once you succeed through progressive fasting, you will live longer, happier, and healthier." About the Author: Nigerian author and publisher Stella Okoronkwo has 14 books to her credit in both English and French. A missionary and woman of God in her own right, she is into sustainable development and capacity building, and she fights against poverty, hunger, unemployment, and disease. She has two master's degrees from Wheaton Graduate School in Illinois, and Malmo University in Sweden. The youngest child of the late Alfred and Priscilla Okoro, exemplary educators and missionaries, the author teaches about hard work, divine healing, restoration, God's presence, and the importance of applying God's word to our lives. A former university lecturer, she has become a resource person in international publishing and development, and has used her training to impact people in several countries. She resides in Cote d'Ivoire, where she and her husband, Gilbert, reach out to the whole world through electronic, print media, and development programs.

I was 10 years old and he was 8 and the people that owned him wanted to sell him the the slaughter house, because they thought that he was wild and un-ridable, so i fell in love with him and knew that i could change him and make him an amazing horse. so my gram bought him for me, and we immediately bonded so close, we were inseparable. a year or two later i started to do barrels and poles with him, and that year we won grand champion for both. i could do anything with him, and i loved him and he loved me. But unfortunately, our relationship had to come to an end. Sundance was diagnosed with a cancer that had no treatment, and even if the vet did remove it, they said it would come back twice as bad and the quality of life is very poor. so instead of making him suffer, we put him to sleep and out of pain. i know that he's with me in my heart, but its heartbreaking to go to the barn and to not see him in his stall or greeting me every time i walk into the barn. i love him with all my heart. i love u sundance, please don't forget me..

The taxable valuation of property was a hot topic at the Lincoln County Commissioner's meeting Monday, as Maxwell resident Shirley Hubbard presented complaints.
"I would like to know if you recognize these documents," she said. "I would assume you do, since you signed them. I have been here before on this matter—this is not the first time, we did this before a few years ago to get the value back to where it belongs and now I am still at it, because this isn't right."
The documents compared the county assessor and the referee's recommendations.
She noted that the referee recommended lowering her valuation.
"And when I came to the board before, you said you were very surprised at what the referee had recommended," Hubbard said.
"We only do about 700 of them," Commissioner Duane Deterding said. "So, I don't remember every one of them."
Hubbard wanted to know how the board decided on her valuation.
"Oh my, we would have to go back through and restudy it, Shirley, to honestly give a legitimate answer. That would be a little hard to do here," Commissioner Bill Henry said.
"It would have to be in the proper setting before the board of equalization," Commissioner Joe Hewgley said. "But you are welcome to say anything you want to us, within reason, and you can probably call us anything you want to, within reason, but there is really nothing right now that we can do. It is just a time for you to give us your information."
Hubbard read the decision from the document:
"After testimony by the assessor and referee, I move to lower the valuation to the referee's recommendations."
"The assessor's recommendation is higher; the referee's is lower. So how did you get that?" she asked.
Deputy County Attorney Joe Wright spoke up.
"This is not a question-and-answer session. If you want to express your concerns, just go for it, but as far as the case, it is tried and is over and we are moving on."
"You're moving on, I am not," Hubbard replied.
"The case is over, if you want to express concerns and why you are upset and so forth, go ahead and do it, but they don't have to answer any of your questions," Wright said.
Hubbard said she had wanted to talk to the commissioners rather than have a referee. But "they" would not let her.
"Stop right there. Who told you that?" Hewgley asked.
"Someone in the assessor's office," Hubbard said.
Hewgley asked County Assessor Julie Stenger to explain what happened. She said that the assessor's office does not schedule those type of meetings.
Hubbard said she did not know who to talk to.
"We tell every taxpayer when they file their protest, that it is all done at the clerk's office," Stenger said.
After more discussion, Hewgley learned that this protest was about last year's valuation, rather than this year's.
Even so, Hubbard continued to question why her valuation was not lowered.
Stenger gave her an explanation.
"If you look, we did lower it, not to the referee's, but it was lower than what it was originally," Stenger said.
"For the future, maybe you now understand what you need to do," Wright said. "That is why I kept stopping you talking about the past. As far as regards to the future, make sure there is an understanding that you want to be in front of the board."
"I won't forget that," Hubbard said.
"That's all you can do. What's past is past. Next time through, you will understand what you need to do, for now you just have to pay what the clerk says," Wright said.
"I know that. I was there," she said. "So, in the meantime, I have to pay what it says?"
"Why would you ask that question if you know it and said you were there?" Hewgley asked.
Hubbard paused, "Maybe because I am just upset."
"I accept that and appreciate that," Hewgley said.
"I know I won't get an answer about how you came to your conclusions, so I will be back next year. Because this is not right," Hubbard said.
The commissioners said they would welcome her back.
Preliminary budget
In other business, the commissioners looked over the preliminary Lincoln County 2017-18 budget, presented by Certified Public Accountant Susan Maline.
The preliminary budget calls for $12,626,000 in property taxes, which is slightly less than the $12,740,869 this year. The proposed property tax levy is .256776, which is slightly lower than the .259112 this year, Maline said.
"This is just a preliminary calculation. We don't have all the evaluations yet, and they won't be finalized until Aug. 20," she said.
Maline there would be some areas that might need "tweaked," but "usually this is pretty close."
The commissioner's thanked her for her work.
"We appreciate what you do," Deterding said.
Also, the board:
• Adopted a resolution directing the County Treasurer to issue tax sale certificates to Lincoln County on parcels which are two years delinquent on real estate taxes or assessments.
• Issued certificates of correction as submitted by the county assessor to two stores that recently closed -- JC Penney's in the amount of $894. 26 and U-Save for $6,491.74.
• Signed an agreement with Union Pacific Railroad and the Nebraska Department of Roads for repairs and addition of new crossing arms on the Maxwell Pine (main) St. UPRR crossing.
• Approved a special liquor permit for Sculleys LLC for a reception Aug. 26 at the Lincoln County Fairgrounds.
• Reappointed Deputy County Clerk Terry Heessel to the Lincoln County Safety Committee for a three-year term.

text: 2014 5-ounce .999 fine silver bullion quarter dollar coin sales by United States Mint down Below 2013 levels, but in line with 2012 releases By Paul Gilkes , Coin World Published : 07/02/14 Print Text Size A A The latest 5-ounce silver bullion quarter dollar to be released under the America the Beautiful program is the 2014-dated coin honoring Arches National Park in Utah. Images courtesy of U.S. Mint. Sales by the United States Mint for the first three America the Beautiful 5-ounce silver bullion quarter dollars are below those for the 2013 issues but in line with 2012 releases. The U.S. Mint website reports that through June 22, the authorized purchasers ordered 23,000 of the 2014 Great Smoky Mountains National Park 5-ounce silver bullion coins, 20,000 of the 2014 Shenandoah National Park bullion coins, and 18,300 of the 2014 Arches National Park bullion coins. The Schuler coinage press dedicated to the production of the 3-inch .999 fine silver bullion coins at the Philadelphia Mint returned to replenishing the U.S. Mint's inventory of the Shenandoah National Park bullion coins after officials announced June 23 the available supply was depleted. Sales had reached the 20,000-coin level at the time of the announcement. The 5-ounce silver bullion coins are authorized under provisions of America's Beautiful National Parks Quarter Dollar Coin Act of 2008, Public Law 110-456. The coins are 5-ounce silver versions of the 24.3-millimeter quarter dollars struck for circulation and numismatic sets. In addition to the bullion pieces, Uncirculated 5-ounce silver numismatic versions bearing the Philadelphia Mint's P Mint mark are sold by the U.S. Mint directly to the public. The bullion versions offered through the authorized purchasers bear no Mint mark. Both the bullion and Uncirculated Mint-marked coins are struck on the same dedicated press at the Philadelphia Mint. The highest sales thus far for the bullion issues have been recorded for the 2011 Gettysburg National Military Park and Glacier National Park issues with 126,700 coins each. Sales off to rough start in 2010 Sales for the inaugural five 2010 bullion releases, all of which sold out, were limited to 33,000 coins each, because production was being split between the bullion and Uncirculated versions. advertisement Subscribe to our Newsletters advertisement You are signed in as:null Older Comments (1)
