The map of the hostilities continues to change in favour of the Army of the South-East, as the Militia continues to win local and positional battles. The battles in Novorossiya, especially in Lugansk and Donetsk, are becoming more and more violent. The Ukrainian army initiated military operations on all the battlefronts on August 20th. The cities of Novorossiya have been exposed to massive artillery strikes. Ukrainian units reported part of Lugansk taken over; however, a successful Militia counterattack proved these reports to be premature. A similar situation took place in the suburb of Donetsk – Yasinovataya, where the enemy was thrown back, incurring serious losses. Unsuccessful attempts to take over Ilovaisk led to the same consequences. Meanwhile, intensive artillery and aviation bombardments of Donetsk and Lugansk have continued.
Target: to demolish the cities' infrastructure (including water supply, gas pipelines, substations taken out of commission), which would lead to panic and demoralization among the people, thus reducing their ability actively to resist.
Methods: multiple rocket launcher (MRL): "Grad", "Smerch", "Uragan", artillery, aviation bombardments and high activity by a few raiding parties in suburbs, conducting subversive operations and mortar firing, while constantly changing their sites.
Donetsk as well as Makeyevka, Mospino were massively bombarded. School #151 burnt down, multiple instances of destruction are present in uptown Donetsk. There are up to ten casualties among Makeevka civilians, number of injured has not been reported. Railway station building damaged. Water filtering station in Olkhovka disabled on purpose, thereby part of Khartsyzsk and Zugres were cut of water supply.
Khanjenkovo was attacked. Strikes were reported at the railway station, the water reservoir, and the court building. Trudovskaya mining village in Petrovsky district of Donetsk was subjected to gunfire. The Army of Novorossiya conducted shelling of Saur-Mogila and organized the firing encirclement of the enemy near Amvrosievka. Artillery and mortar strikes were inflicted on the enemy positions in the area of Luzhki-Petrovskoye-Kuteinikovo. Exchange of weapons fire took place near the Blagodatnoe village.
Main events unfolded at the south-east from Donetsk, in the settlement of Ilovaisk. As a result of these battles, the Ukrainian forces here constituted out of a composite group and the units of Battalions Donbass and Dnepr-1 unit was surrounded and exposed to massive shelling by the Army of Novorossiya. Spare Ukrainian army units were rushed through there, in particular – Battalions Azov and Shakhtersk, as well as ZSU units (17th Tank and 93rd Mechanized Brigades). As a result of fierce fighting, a tank company of the 17th Tank Brigade, the aim of which was to break the Ukrainian troops in the suburbs of Ilovaisk out of encirclement, was mostly destroyed, and the composite company of the 93rd brigade was encircled in the town with the rest of Battalion Donbass. Three BMP companies of the 51st Brigade – were mostly destroyed and scattered. Nothing is known about the fate of the 5th company of Battalion Dnepr-1 and the 2nd platoon of Battalion Azov.
By the end of the day, Ilovaisk was almost entirely liberated from the Ukrainian forces and controlled by the Militia. Motorola's unit captured many battle trophies. Ilovaisk is an important center of resistance for the DRP.
Ukrainian army target: to "hack through" the eastern line of defence from Donetsk and siege the city by encircling as much of the surrounding area as possible. Cut the supply lines and transporting connections among the neighboring cities.
During the day the Ukrainian military continued shelling the suburbs of Lugansk. Over a period of 18 days people have been forced to live without electricity, water supply, mobile and landline phone network. According to citizens' reports, apartment buildings at Lenin and Gradusov streets suffered damage caused by artillery shelling. The enemy concentrated major forces on holding its positions in the area of Cheluskinets, Khryashchevatoye, and Novosvetlovka settlements. The airport remains encircled. Positional battles are taking place. LPR forces began assaulting Slavyanoserbsk, Lutugino, Veselaya gora and Krasniy Yar settlements. The Novosvetlovka battle is going on. Militia is also holding the defense of Stanitsa Luganskaya and Vergunki.
Ukrainian military target: to take the control over the supply line, traffic artery connecting Lugansk and Izvarino check-point, which is to be used for humanitarian supplies transportation.
The Militia had the most intense fights in the Georgievka area. Su-25 strike aircraft and Ukraine air force Mi-24 helicopter were shot down using MANPADS. Another Mi-24 helicopter was disabled.
Other issues:
Humanitarian supplies for Donbass were confirmed by the Red Cross and by Kiev.
In 40 days Ukrainian thermal power stations will run out of coal, according to RIA News, quoting American CNBC channel. The reason is railways malfunction, disabling coal supply to Ukrainian power stations.
"Odessa authorities will not provide help for Donbass combat zone refugees" – stated region governor Igor Palitsa. "There are no funds in the local budget to help refugees, unfortunately. Even if they become available, I will suggest that the region's legislative body spend it on our army, our guys who are fighting, not on the refugees. "
Novorossiya Military Briefing – 10:00 (UKR) – August 21, 2014

Translated from Russian by O.C.
First let us consider the situation from the "bird's eye view". The Junta's attack has completely lost all sense. The last attacks on Ilovaysk resembled random convulsions rather than a part of a sensible plan. Taking control of Ilovaisk would have made sense if it had been coordinated with a blow to the north of Donetsk. But the blow in the north had already been parried three days before that, so the frontal attack on Ilovaysk made no sense. We can say the same about the Junta's other operation to the south of Lugansk. It would have made sense "to surround" Lugansk before the Southern Cauldron was defeated (at the beginning of August). And all the forces used in this operation were available at that time as well. However … we can only shrug quizzically. As Strelkov said, "the decisions of the Ukrainian command can nonplus anyone" (there almost no other explanation for their actions other than obvious sabotage).
It seems that there is a decisive battle being played out now to the south of Donetsk (Ilovaysk-Saur-Amvrosiyevka-Uspenka). The winner gets the initiative and operational freedom. The Junta has sent to the fight its last reserves in this area (the 28th brigade), as well as the reserves received during a realignment of the forces (parts of the 51st and the 93rd brigades). Dispatching to the battlefront divisions poorly composed of mishmash platoons and different companies gathered from all around the front line (Ilovaysk) rather than sending entire brigades (with the exception of the 28th Brigade that was entered into battle a little earlier) indicates the lack of operational reserves. In other words, there are no reserves in the south (not including the territorial battalions, because they only serve to instil chaos and panic, rather than benefit the operations). If, as a result of this fighting, the Junta's southern group is broken (and that is where it seems to be going), they will have nothing to cover the gap in the defence after being defeated until the reserve units are made available by the third wave of mobilization (not earlier than in 2-3 weeks), and then fortifying Mariupol becomes a good alternative.
Near Lugansk, the situation for the Junta is also quickly coming to a catastrophe. The plan for the close envelopment of Lugansk failed. As a result of multiple days of fighting, the grouping of the 80th brigade, having circumvented the city along the border, and after crossing the Severskiy Donets river, was cut off (just as it was done with the Southern Cauldron). The Militia immediately took advantage of the weakening of the enemy forces to the north of Lugansk. The aim of the counteroffensive is to push the Junta's troops over the line of the Seversky Donets river, and then to defeat a set of cauldrons around Lugansk, using the freed-up reserves for the purpose. Yesterday's combat for Slavyanoserbsk and Vesyolaya Gora has shown that this operation is going well. An enemy armored group made a breakthrough in the direction of Krasniy Luch (Malonikolaevka) this morning. This may also be an attempt to get out of the encirclement by breaking through to the Debaltsevo area, getting the last battalion of the 30th Division out of the pocket along the way. However, it can be a separate operation as well, but, in this case, it is even more idiotic than the previous breakthrough of a few battalions into this very area, which lead to their complete defeat.
In the area of Gorlovka-Debaltsevo there is an operational pause. The Militia is trying to deal a final blow to the units of the 30th Brigade encircled near Fashchevka and to liquidate the consequences of the last breakthrough of the 95th Brigade to the area of Zhdanovka-Yasinovatay-Nizhnyaya Krynka. The Junta's forces are simply trying to hold their positions because of lack of reserves.
The prospects. The suicidal attacks of the Ukrainian military intended to achieve a victory by August 24th foreseeably have resulted in enormous losses in manpower and military hardware. Having chosen the tactics of strategic defence, the Militia have almost exsanguinated the enemy units and therefore now have fairly good chance to take over the initiative. In the south there might be an offensive aimed at liberating Amvrosievka and Starobeshevo. Further operations will be planned in accordance with the evolving operational environment (it is too early to plan yet). In the north of Lugansk the line of the Seversky Donets river should be reached and all the cauldrons will then be purged. Then …We will see.
The Junta's available forces. I believe that after my overview we have reasons to consider the 25th and the 51st Brigades almost completely defeated. The 28th Brigade was engaged in the fight near Saur and has already sustained large losses, while the 80th Brigade is carrying on heavy fighting in the south of Lugansk. The 95th Brigade sustained further losses near Gorlovka. The 128th Brigade (without the mountain rifle battalion that was swiftly sent to the Transcapathia) and the 92th Brigade (one of its battalions is surely near Kharkov; there is no information about the others) are relatively new. Why do I consider only regular units of the Ukrainian military forces? Because all the rest (other than maybe Battalion Aidar) are second-rate units which have no capacity either for attack or for persistent defence (only punitive sweep operations are within their depth). Therefore, I do not assess the manpower of the Militia and the Junta as others do. When calculating the Junta's "forces" I do not take into account the units of the Ministry of the Interior (all the investigation officers, patrol units, traffic police inspectors – they are not proper military units) together with all the territorial defence battalions. As we can see, in practice, they can do absolutely nothing. What we should take into account are the units of the Ukrainian military and the "volunteer" battalions, and this calculation shows that the Junta has hardly any manpower advantage anymore, let alone advantage in troop morale …
The communication lines. I would like to highlight the fighting over the lines of communication, which both parties have been actively carrying on. Recently a radical turn has also become obvious in this regard. As a result of the various cauldrons and breakthrough being "cleansed", the Militia has almost won back its lines of communications (other than near Lugansk). As a result, they have been able to manoeuvre their forces more efficiently by taking the advantages of the interior operational lines. Since last week there has been a real breakdown at the Junta's rear. An obvious case was the recent capture of the chief officer of the 8th Army Corps reconnaissance party. Another example showing their rear to have gaps is the defeat of an artillery fortified area by one of Bezler's saboteur-reconnaisance groups ("SRG"), as a result of which the Militia secured MLRS "Uragan" and 240-mm mortars "Tulpan" trophies (and even managed to take them out). In other words, the Junta's front line is collapsing in front of our eyes. I do not even take into account the southern SRG raids to Uspenka, Amvrosievka, Kuteynikovo and many other areas. Storming garrisons deep in the rear twice per week with perfect impunity (to wit, the "Uspenka" border-crossing checkpoint) is already significant.

DeKalb School District, county government close on exchange of three properties
After two years of discussions, the DeKalb County School District (DCSD) and DeKalb County government completed the process to exchange properties at three locations, paving the way for the construction of a new elementary school and parks.
"We are pleased to work out a deal that's beneficial to all residents of DeKalb County," said Superintendent R. Stephen Green. "The school district receives land upon which it can build a first-class campus for students, and the citizens receive new park land. Cooperation and collaboration will always lead to great results, and this exchange is proof of that."
The organizations concluded the following swap:
DCSD purchased 7.35 acres of Pleasantdale Park, 3686 Pleasantdale Road, Atlanta, for $3.227 million. The purchase will allow the district to tear down the current Pleasantdale Elementary School and build a new $23.6 million campus on site without moving students in the area.
The school district sold a 2.44-acre portion of the Margaret Harris property for $250,000 to the county for the purpose of a new park. The land is located at 1634 Knob Hill Drive NE in Atlanta.
DCSD also sold the 2.84-acre Rehoboth Park property to DeKalb County for $280,000. The property is located at 3105 Tolbert Drive in Decatur.
The exchanges were approved by the DeKalb County Board of Education at its monthly meeting on March 19.
"Providing more parkland and property for a new school in underserved areas has a direct impact on improving the quality of life for all our citizens. This land transfer and acquisition is a great example of the partnership between DeKalb County Schools and DeKalb County Government," said DeKalb CEO Michael Thurmond.

PAGE 106 – February 2011
February 1, 2011 by Carl Arendt
H O T I D E A S F O R S M A L L R A I L R O A D S
Haston—Fall colours arrive at a classic shelf switcher
Moorside—Figures, vehicles enliven a small display
Trödel & Sohn—Details make the difference at farm tramway
Karakuri Mine RR—A two level jack-in-the-box layout
Wingett's Recycling—Exhibition line promotes small railroads
Mabey Works—Smallest layout gets lots of attention
Lazy River—Venerable pike expands scenery, operations
Walmington Pier—Famliar exhibition line gets a facelift
Black Rock, Buffalo—Final touches send new line out for exhibition
Here's another of those perennially popular topics for web pages—a collection of new developments on layouts we've seen before. It's a great source of information, updating, and inspirational ideas for us all. Encore!
HASTON 'GOES AUTUMNAL' FOR RECENT EXHIBITIONS
Haston Nomad has experienced several additions since we visited early last year. Chris Gilbert, from the West Midlands of England, moved the US-prototype setting from Wisconsin to Vermont, added a blaze of Fall color, and is tacking on an extra foot at each end of the shelf to extend the sidings and improve operations. The New England trees are particularly striking, as seen in these photos—and he's thinking about adding an extra couple inches to the platform depth to accommodate even more trees. Note that Chris has done an excellent job with the often-forgotten chore of adding a carpet of bright-colored fallen leaves to the ground cover!
Plans are also in the works to convert the Midwest-style grain elevator to a feed mill, more appropriate for New England. The updated layout is scheduled to appear at Model Rail Scotland in Glasgow from 25-27 February 2011.
MOORSIDE SHOWS HOW FIGURES, VEHICLES ADD LIFE TO A LAYOUT
Each year Richard Glover and a few of his colleagues from the Greenwich and District Narrow Gauge Railway Society take some small layouts to the big French exhibition, RailExpo, in November. In 2010 Richard took along Moorside Station, which we last saw in 2008. Feeling that the layout needed a little more lively look, Richard painted and added some human figures and a few period vehicles. The results were immediate and dramatic… compare these scenes with the similar ones in Scrapbook #78.
An intriguing feature of the Moorside layout design is its "plain-sight" fiddle yard which rolls out from behind a building (at the right rear, see our previous visit) and shows its last few inches of length as a sleepy storage yard where a few wagons can be parked from time to time. This capability perks up operations in addition to allowing normal "fiddle" maneuvers to be performed.
FARM SUPPLIES TRAMWAY 'GETS REAL' WITH ADDED DETAILS
Nearly a year ago we saw an under-construction version of Landhandel Traugott Trödel & Sohn (Traugott Trödel & Son Farm Supplies), a Gn15 layout by Dr. Michael Giersberg, from Stülow, Germany. Now it's approaching completion with many new details to examine. Michael also sent along a track plan (below), which was missing from our previous report.
Many new photos have also been added to the layout's thread in the Buntbahn.de forum.
KARAKURI II ADDS SECOND LEVEL TO JACK-IN-THE-BOX LAYOUT
We first met Yutaka Nakai (nicknamed Yuta), from Kyoto, Japan, in Scrapbook #102a, where he presented his Karakuri Layout, a display-in-a-box design. Now he's carried the theme one more step, producing a two-level Karakuri II mining layout—including separate electrical controls for each level—that rises and falls when the box lid is raised or lowered.
There's more English-language information at Yuta's website, and he's produced a YouTube video to demonstrate both the layout and his battery-powered control system. Yuta also added a portable battery system to his Kisakae Layout (featured in #104), and illustrated it in a YouTube video and a web page (way down at the bottom).
WINGETT'S RECYCLING SPREADS THE WORD IN MINNESOTA AND BEYOND
These two photos by Jim Ramnes
While many of us (justifiably) complain about the model media's lack of attention to minimum-space layouts, Ian Holmes, from Princeton, Minnesota USA, is doing something about it. At the end of last year he attended his second World's Greatest Hobby show (this time in Saint Paul, Minnesota) bringing a micro layout with him! This one was Wingett's Recycling, first seen here in Scrapbook #94.
Jim Ramnes from Wadena, Minnesota, covered the exhibition photographically for his blog, and graciously allowed us to reproduce a couple of his shots (above). At left are Lorrie and Ian Holmes, looming over the displayed layout, whose polished, English-style presentation opened a lot of eyes among show visitors. There are virtually no minimum-space layouts at most WGH shows, so such a well-turned out small exhibit was a double surprise that attracted lots of attention. Lorrie is a fully-trained operator who conducts her shifts "on the layout" with charm and poise.
To add to his pleasure, Ian was approached by a representative of a national modeling magazine who was interested in possibly covering the layout in his publication. How's that for getting attention? Ian's adventures at the show are described, along with details of the layout and tales of other exhibitions, in his entertaining blog.
MABEY WORKS, SMALLEST LAYOUT ON DISPLAY, GOT LOTS OF ATTENTION
We first glanced at Robert Forde's little OO industrial switching layout in Scrapbook #91a, to note its unusual platform—a 22x14in (56x36cm) computer monitor stand. Now Robert, who lives in Clevedon, in southwest England (near Bristol), has "filled in the blanks" and sent along some photos of his scenery.
Robert explains, "The line represents the tail end of one of the small industrial lines which could be found in rural areas and small towns in Britain up until the early 1960s… I recently exhibited it at the Nailsea Model Railway Club's Open Day (December 2010), where it attracted a great deal of attention although it was by far the smallest layout in the show. Perhaps for this reason, lots of people wanted to stop and talk about it. I named it Mabey Works, although in fact it kept going very well all day." Robert points out, though, that the 6in radius curves impose limitations on the locomotives and rolling stock that can be used; for this reason, he's planning his next micro layout to be a little larger.
NEW BASEBOARD ADDS INDUSTRIES AND MORE OPERATION TO LAZY RIVER
Three years ago, when we first toured Giles Barnabe's Lazy River exhibition layout, it was a simple kickback track plan measuring 48x15in (120x38cm). Recent changes have added some bustle to its operations… the area to the left, originally designed as a three-road traverser, has been replaced by a scenic 40in (102cm) baseboard which completes the runaround loop (passing siding) and adds several new industries. Giles, who lives in London, announced the changes in Scrapbook #96a, and now has them ready for the spring 2011 exhibition scene, bringing the layout's length to a little over 7ft (2.2m). Photos show the new board which still lacks some weathering and detailing.
WALMINGTON PIER GETS A 'REBRANDING' FACE-LIFT
AFTER ten years attending over 50 exhibitions, Dave Carson, from Stowmarket, Suffolk, England, has refurbished his venerable Edwardian pier layout and rechristened it New Walmington Pier for the 2011 season. This layout first appeared in our original Micro Layout Design Gallery!
NEARLY FINISHED BLACK ROCK, BUFFALO HITS THE EXHIBITION CIRCUIT
Black Rock, Buffalo was introduced to these pages while still under construction by Steve Grantham, from Bubwith, North Yorkshire, England (see Scrapbook #101 for details and a track plan). Now nearly complete, the little US-prototype HO layout made its debut in November at the train show sponsored by Steve's club, the Hull Miniature Railway Society. Here are a couple photos taken at the show.


The hotel had history and it's the reason we booked there.
I really like how the personnel responded to my complaint about the room. We were assigned another one immediately, no questions asked.
We requested a better room and after one night they put us in a slightly better room.
Rooms were comfortable and well kept. Shame they only left 1 cup in a room for 2 people. Breakfast was very good.
No complaints . The room and bedding were perfect and even had a cooling and heating system that you can adjust for your own comfort. Also , the hotel had a restaurant which was very convenient and also affordable .
Very clean, great refurbishment & the rooms designed beautifully. The bed also was absolutely great, big, with 4 pillows. It also was very decently cleaned & tidied up daily. The reception & bar area also was very nice.

i've been using it with canon 28/1.8 here on a shots with dancing girl and couple of other: and it did pretty well, also totally ok for photo. Although i have a minor glitch before i updated firmware to latest version.
konica 40/1.8 and cheap noname speedbooster (and a little of machining work). most probably highest iso is 1600 (since i dont do post nr), maybe 3200 in one or two shots.
what a bs to ask a regular people to judge artistic instrument which bokeh is. people care about content and what an idiotic ( and impotent ) thing to let them decide which tool is better for creator.
of course if its some big scenario case then its always good to have alexa-on-ronin setup. but when u had skill u can scale it on any production and needs. and here some more xt2/crane/18mm combination ( now with ibis stabilized x-h1/55mm): and with 4k60 and better rs there's even easier to get stabilized results. crane/xt3 is stuning combo in terms of possibilities/$ btw does anyone knows if xt3 output 1080/120 in 10bit over hdmi or not?
im sure - the store where im looking at dc power supply is on official fuji site. and as you can see CP-W126 itself have 9V marking.
output of an original dc power supply is 9V 2A. maybe there is converter inside original dummy battery.

Our site only has 5 pages, why do I keep getting the upgrade message when I try to publish?
I have looked at your site and you have a file in your file manager called HIPS_Newsletter.html. Any .html files will count as a page, so this is considered the 6th page on the account.
I appreciate the feedback, and the fast response.
Well, I removed that link and it still is giving me the same error message. Any Ideas?
You would need to remove the file out of the file manager. Removing something off the page doesn't delete the file, just takes if off the page itself. This is the same for old images and unused documents.
Well, that worked! Thanks for the info.

Uniform or vintage look? Brown jeans enable both!
The brown jeans should not be missing in a well-stocked wardrobe: it is easy to combine and therefore fits many occasions. In leisure time in combination with flat ballerinas or elegant with high heels for a glamorous appearance – brown jeans complete the outfit. In the color of the shoes numerous combinations are possible. If you like it consistently, you can, for example, orient yourself to the color of the top when choosing the right shoes: a pair of brown jeans with chic black shoes and a classy black T-shirt are enough to make a statement in the office or at the party. Who wears his top in his pants, can complement the look with a belt. He relaxes the overall picture and draws his attention to the brown pants. The warm color brown goes well with gold or silver tones. Even more shades of brown, which may be darker or lighter than the pants, are reflected in matching tops and pockets. Carriers of the vintage style of clothing, for example, choose a dark blue denim shirt or a beige bag for the jeans in brown, thereby enhancing the color of the trousers even more. Pants with a wash in the so-called "used look" are well suited for this style. They look deliberately used and old, which makes them so trendy.
At celebrations, the brown jeans is also wearable. In this case, women choose a tight skinny jeans in a slim cut and combine the brown jeans with elegant accessories. For shoes, pumps or strappy heels with heels are suitable. The top should look noble, for example, by a lace ornament. A transparent tunic is also stylish. When it comes to jewelery you have a free hand: The simpler the clothing, the more spectacular it may fail. So you make a good figure as a woman – even without cocktail or evening dress. Brown jeans are also good for men: There are also numerous combination options to wear the brown jeans in the noble look. The brown jeans go out with a black jacket and elegant leather shoes. If you prefer a more rustic feel or are ready to party, you can combine the brown jeans with suede boots and a leather belt. A blue, beige or white shirt complete the overall picture.

Baroness Cohen Returns to Jack Hunt School
On Tuesday 15 January 2013, Jack Hunt School welcomed the return of Baroness Cohen of Pimlico, a member of the House of Lords who attended the school to encourage students to engage more with the political and parliamentary process. Baroness Cohen met with around one hundred, Year 13 students for an hour to talk about the work and role of the House of Lords.
This was followed by a question and answer session on various aspects of the parliamentary process and life at Westminster generally which included questions on House of Lords reform, the potential European Union referendum, how to enter into publishing and her thoughts on the Communications Bill passing through the House of Lords currently. Her visit was arranged as part of the "Peers in School's" Outreach programme, arranged in conjunction with the Lord Speaker of the House of Lords Office following a successful visit last year.
Miss Morgan, said "Once again, this was a fantastic and unique opportunity for our students to interact with someone who knows the parliamentary system inside out, as it can sometimes seem far removed from our daily lives yet decisions that are made there, affect our everyday lives. A number of Year 13 students are taking AS level Citizenship and Politics A level and this has really helped them to understand a key aspect of their courses in preparation for taking their final exams."
Last year, Baroness Cohen made a donation to support three Year 13 students (Georgia Evans, Lucy Johnstone and Tess Gee) who performed at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival who returned to say thank you. They had the pleasure of meeting her when she visited Jack Hunt School to speak to last year's A Level students.


It is said that moving is the third most stressful event in life, first being death and second being divorce.. Its something all of us have to do from time to time. Do you agree that its that stressful? Have you experienced a move that nearly killed you?
I recently went through the third most stressful event in life and to be honest, a few times during our move I would of gladly chosen death.
Here are some tips I gathered whilst moving all my material possessions to a bigger piece of material possession to keep all my material possessions inside.
1. For the love of all that is holy NUMBER your boxes. We didn't. We paid the price for this when we started unpacking in the new house.
2. If you are using a moving company make sure they are loading your furniture with care. I don't feel like you should have to do this because you are paying for a service, but in our case we didn't supervise our movers and ended up with damages on almost everything they touched.
3. Take this time to donate any unwanted clothes or anything else you don't need. When you are sorting through your hoarded house give back to the people who might need it more than you. Besides you get to move less stuff this way.
4. Pick the right day to move. In our case it was raining, needless to say moving in the rain isn't pleasant at all. We didn't really have a choice on our moving day tho but if you do, try and pick a sunny one.
5. Get your boxes from local liquor stores or grocery markets. We got all our moving boxes from our local grocer, just ask them as they dump them anyway.
6. Put heavy things in small boxes. You don't want to be carrying a huge box that weighs a ton. Something I had to do on numerous occasions.
7. When you move your bed into your new house set it up immediately. You are gonna need a good nights rest after your move.
Those are my personal tips I put together after our move. Below is a vlog I did of the day, you can check out our new spot. Be sure to subscribe on youtube and follow me here on steam.
Yea dude, moving is STRESSFUL.

Are the Throttle locks the same weight as the weights?
Yes, to a few grams. You will never notice the difference.
Do the throttle locks look like the weights?
To about ten thousandths of an inch, except for the seam between the two main parts of the throttle lock, and the inboard surface.
Are the throttle locks compatible with handguards?
Only the kind that is not supported from the outboard side. So V-Strom and Buell OEM guards are right out. But if you take off the guards, we can fit your bike.
Do I have to order the sides seperately?
No, every weight or throttle lock kit sold on this site has parts enough for the whole installation.
Can I have my throttle lock in Black?
Yes. Our Throttle Lock is available in Blackout finish. The powdercoat was carefully masked to keep it out of the workings, which are precision-machined. The weight side is normal steel, but the Throttle lock side remains Stainless, because any rustproof coating is bound to come off.
Does the throttle lock let the throttle move?
Yes. It is always possible to overpower the holding force of the throttle lock, to adjust the throttle.
Does the throttle lock hold the throttle securely?
If properly installed, with suitable grips, yes. But if your grips are not secure on the throttle sleeve, or are made of the wrong stuff (see that FAQ), the throttle will migrate closed, and you will start to notice in seconds to minutes, depending.
How does the throttle lock disengage?
Pull your right hand off the grip entirely, and hold the collar, rotating it in the throttle-off direction as you pull outboard. The grip will rotate closed. If you do not want to slow down, you need to learn to pull in the clutch just after you have disengaged the lock. Once the lock is disengaged and your hand is back on the grip, spin the motor up again and let the clutch out.
Will the throttle locks work on scooters or automatictransmissions?
Does the throttle lock ever trip accidentally?
Yes. It can trip if your glove or palm rubs against the collar as you operate the bike. If this happens to you, you can rotate the collar about 1/4 turn in the throttle-off direction, and tighten it in the unlocked position. It is less convenient to engage from there, but it will stay put. To prevent this situation it helps to have longer grips and throttle sleeves, so your hands have room to work without touching the collar.
What are the signs that my bike will not fit your throttlelocks?
I will first point out that most of these factors can be corrected, with enough effort. KuryAkyn or any other plastic or metallic grip will not work. Grips with no flange at the outboard side may slip more than you like, but usually work fine. The collar must engage soft, grippy rubber. Handguards that attach between the weight and the grip are right out. Some old Piaggio scooters, which have no handlebar inside their throttle sleeves, cannot be fit with our throttle locks.
How do you compare to Throttlemeister?
Can lock the throttle so it really can't be moved.
User needs to choose holding tension with every use.
Is difficult to set up with a usable tension range which includes both no tension and enough tension.
Mechanism has 24 parts, 19 of which are moving parts!
Mechanism is internally lubricated and sealed with rubber, which deteriortes over time and eventually leaks.
Cannot prevent you from closing the throttle, unless you installed it so tight you can't even start out.
Set and forget, on or off, no fiddling with tension on the road.
Mechanism has four parts, two of which are moving parts. Simple as a rock, yet easier to use!
Designed to run dry- no lubrication to attract dirt, no seals to leak.
Imperfect setups will have the grip migrating slowly closed.
The feel of the mechanism is not as smooth as Throttlemeister.
How do you compare to Vista Cruise and other flip-leverclamp-action inboard throttle locks?
easy, easy engagement and disengagement.
Even the nicest ones have a busy, jerry-rigged look.
Soooo pretty! Almost invisible, they look like bar ends.
Very reliable once you set them up.
Cost almost as much as Throttlemeister. Almost.
A bit less convenient to use than a flip-lever unit.
I have aftermarket "HotGrip" heated grips. I currently need toreplace them (due to age/wear) and would like to add Salamanderends. I am assuming installation will require cutting ends of gripsopen. Do you forsee an issue with these particular grips (theyrequire epoxy onto handle bar and throttle sleeve)?
You can cut a hole in the ends of Hot GripsTM grip heaters no problem. Just don't cut off the end. Generally, any heated grip with an inboard power feed (that doesn't feed out the end of the handlebar) is fine with our products.
Hot GripsTM have been available for several years with open ends, and those are ideal for our products.

Kindness is never a flaw. But not everyone can be kind and sincere. Some people are ready to give the last thing to help people in need, while others won't give a single dime. Sad to say, but there are many evil people in the world who just do not have the same moral values as other people. Most of them take great satisfaction in trapping people in relationships to bully and abuse them.
Luckily, there are some methods that that can help you identify if the man you are dating is not good enough. We would like to draw your attention to these sixteen signs that that can help you understand that you are in a relationship with an evil person. Scroll down to read them right now.
#1. It's not enough for him to control his own life, as he's trying to control your life too. That's the first sign.
#2. He enjoys and laughs watching YouTube videos of someone falling off of their bicycle while having a ride. It means he likes when someone feels pain.
#3. He's lying all the time, because he always acts in that way.
#4. You feel that something is wrong. Your instincts say that you should stay away from him.
#5. The way he treats his friends and family, you understand that he is a cruel person.
#6. He's trying to mislead you to show that he controls you.
#7. No matter how much he hurts you, he cannot show remorse.
#8. People keep telling you that you should stay away from him. Believe us, it means something.
#9. He blames you for everything.
#10. He changes his masks, as he acts different with you, with his friends and with his family.
#11. He doesn't admit his own mistakes and he tends to judge every person he meets in his life.
#12. He doesn't care about you when you need him the most.
#13. He criticizes and belittles people around him.
#14. He is trying to get you to do what he wants.
#15. He likes to create new conflicts and fights in your relationship.
#16. He blatantly crosses boundaries in your relationship.
You should understand that a relationship with an evil person is not healthy and toxic. If your partner is an evil person, It's time to leave him for good.

Has anyone ever heard of this instrument? (I've also heard it called Choirchimes or simply Chimes) I recently took leadership of a Youth choir for playing the Handchimes at my church in Hagerstown, Maryland.
I would appreciate if anyone can direct me to seminars, books, or videos that directly relate to leading such a group. Also, does anyone have any tricks for teaching some basic theory as related to playing the chimes, especially considering that my group comprises players from 11-19 years old at this point and they are of various levels musically speaking - I don't want to go too fast for the newer musicians but don't want to bore the ones who ask for challenges. Any ideas?

Iowa women's basketball to retire Megan Gustafson's No. 10
Iowa women's Elite Eight bound
IOWA CITY, Iowa — The University of Iowa women's basketball team will retire Megan Gustafson's No. 10, the Henry B. and Patricia B. Tippie Director of Athletics Chair Gary Barta announced Wednesday at the team's season-end celebration in Carver-Hawkeye Arena.
An official retirement ceremony will take place at a later date. Gustafson is the second Iowa women's basketball student-athlete to have her number retired. Iowa retired Michelle Edwards' No. 30 in 1988.

— Iowa On BTN (@IowaOnBTN) April 25, 2019
"I was not expecting that," Gustafson said. "It's super special to celebrate my team and what we've been able to accomplish this year. This is something I'll never forget for the rest of my life. But again, I have to thank my teammates and my coaches. They have made me into the player and the person that I am."
GUSTAFSON: Iowa star wins Naismith Player of the Year Award
Gustafson, the first consensus national player of the year in Big Ten women's basketball history, ended her career as the most decorated Hawkeye in program history. She owns 16 Iowa records, including career marks for points (2,804) and rebounds (1,460). This season, Gustafson netted 1,001 points to become just the fourth Division I female student-athlete, and the only post player, to eclipse 1,000 points in a single season.
A native of Port Wing, Wisconsin, Gustafson led the nation in five categories, including points per game (27.8), field goal percentage (69.6), total points (1,001), field goals made (412), and double-doubles (33).
There will never be another Megan Gustafson and no one will ever wear the No. 10.

Sybille Van Kempen's Next Act
By Zachary Weiss
Sybille van Kempen is sharing her secret recipes behind her Loaves & Fishes success.
The owner of two beloved Hamptons institutions, The Bridgehampton Inn and Loaves & Fishes, is starting a new chapter, celebrating the 25th anniversary of her hotel and the release of her own cookbook, "The Bridgehampton Inn Look + Cook Book." Here, we sit down with van Kempen to reflect on her years as a local luminary of food.
Tell us how you got your start. We imagine you were far ahead of the curve 25 years ago?
My first job in the business was as manager of Ina Garten's Barefoot Contessa in Westhampton Beach, almost 40 years ago. After that summer I went to cooking school, cooked at The Royale Fish in Amagansett for a year, and then joined my mother Anna Pump at Loaves & Fishes Food Store in Sagaponack as both chef and catering manager.
In 1994, Mom and I purchased the property in Bridgehampton and renovated to create what is now our inn. We operated as a six-room B&B with a cooking school and private event space for 20 years, and five years ago I added six more rooms, created the restaurant, and built our Loaves & Fishes Cookshop space with my husband Gerrit.
What kind of lessons were you able to take away from your time with Ina Garten?
Ina shared with me her list of dos and don'ts. Such as, to be sure to make products that you can consistently supply, and to often walk through the front door, to assess the experience
we were presenting to our customers.
When did you realize you had a hit on your hands with The Bridgehampton Inn? Were there any OMG moments?
It was on May 1, 2015, when we added the additional six rooms, the restaurant, and the Cookshop spaces. Amazingly, they were all ready two weeks ahead of construction schedule. We had made it on time and the reservations were pouring in, so a bigger season was destined!
Who inspires your recipes?
My inspiration comes from travel, other chefs, my customers, all of my employees, and our community of farmers.
In addition to your 25th anniversary of The Bridgehampton Inn, you also have a cookbook coming out. What will we find inside?
The restaurant has been "the best-kept secret" to allow it to grow organically through word of mouth with loyal employees. I think we're now ready to share this special historical jewel with a larger audience through my book, which is coauthored with executive chef Brian Szostak and my son, our mixologist and bar manager Kyle Fengler.
How will you be celebrating 25 years in business?
Our 25-year celebration begins with a community book party on Tuesday, June 18, from 4 to 6 PM at the Inn. All are welcome to share our joy.

IWBS Conference: Hope. Rethinking with Benjamin (Deadline: June 15)
Dept. I
Maria Teresa Costa
There is no moment, writes Walter Benjamin, which cannot become revolutionary and does not have "the chance for a completely new solution to a completely new problem." This wording describes revolution less as a rupture in the continuity between past and present, but as an arising possibility for a (different) future. Revolution, for Benjamin, presents radical new challenges, and yet it is also permanent, omnipresent, and miniscule in aspiration and effect. That is, revolution does not only manifest itself in a radical break, as any solution or response—and truly any moment—can take on a revolutionary character.
Such thoughts challenge our familiar image of Benjamin as a melancholic and skeptic and show him as a pragmatic and practical thinker, constantly on the lookout for new ways and means of intervention. His radicality, then, is less the product of an apocalyptic vision of the future, but can rather be attributed to a clear-sighted engagement with the here and now. Benjamin's source of hope is not grounded in an unspecified time to come, but in a critical energy aimed at the "completely new problem."
When viewed from this perspective, Benjamin's works allow us to think about hope—even and especially today, in the face of challenges that were impossible to foresee. Hope raises a number of questions: What is hope, and where is it situated? With whom or what is hope associated? How can we think of hope, and when thinking it with Benjamin, what can we hope to achieve? To what extent does Benjamin's notion of hope diverge from both the model of gradual development and from those of radical rupture? What are the political, epistemological, or moral implications of moments of crisis which cannot be understood in the context of the grand narratives of progress or revolution? And finally, how can Benjamin's "rescuing impulse" open up new modes of thinking and acting? What new ways of thinking about time—about pasts, presents, and futures—does this impulse introduce? Crucially, Benjamin's notion of "the new"—of new challenges and solutions—does not only refer to the present, the future, or an extratemporal utopia. It also manifests itself as the revolutionary power of the current moment to unlock "a quite distinct chamber of the past, one which up to this point has been closed and locked." Such a process recalls Benjamin's historical work, where he hopes to "fan the spark of hope contained within the past." If hope, according to the phrase initially quoted, opens up the present moment towards its inherent possibilities, we should not abandon it.
Abstracts (ca. 250 words with reference to one or two panels) for presentations (twenty minutes) are to be submitted until June 15, 2021 to iwbs.2021@gmail.com, we will confirm acceptance by the end of June. For the moment we hope to meet in person. If restrictions for meeting or travel should still persist, we will organize an alternative hybrid or online-Format. Informations will follow.
For any further questions please contact: Maria Teresa Costa.
The 2021 Conference of the International Walter Benjamin Society, on November 4–6, 2021, is organized by Maria Teresa Costa (MPIWG), Pola Groß (ZfL, Berlin), Ursula Marx (Walter Benjamin Archiv, AdK) und Daniel Weidner (Universität Halle).

Reg Grundy died in Bermuda (his place of domicile) on 6 May 2016, aged 93 years, leaving a will dated 21 January 2011 and sufficient property in NSW to ground the jurisdiction of the Court to admit the will to probate.
In 2015, Reg's wealth was estimated as being $809 million, a figure largely stemming from the $320 million sale of Grundy's company to Pearson Television in 1995.
Reg had one a daughter from his first marriage. She changed her name by deed poll in 2000, to her present name, Viola La Valette. She has been known as Robin Grundy.
Joy Chambers-Grundy is Reg's widow, executor and, having survived him by 30 days, takes "the remainder" (the residue) of his estate after provision of a lifetime annuity of $US250000 granted in favour of Viola and payment of his just debts, funeral and testamentary expenses.
The limited provision made for his daughter in his will may be due to his disappointment with Viola's treatment of him and his belief that she was unreliable in her handling of property and in need of protection.
In April 2017 Viola applied, for a grant of family provision relief in respect of the estate, or notional estate, of the deceased.
Generally speaking a Family Provision Claim is made in a jurisdiction where the deceased lived at the date of their death, or owned assets in that jurisdiction, or both.
The Court takes a number of factors into account: the applicant's financial position, relationship with the deceased, the size of the estate and the deceased's relationship with other persons who are eligible to make a claim.
(c) we do not now have, and nor will we be seeking, any instructions to accept service of any misconceived proceedings that your client should care to issue in New South Wales.
Viola's solicitors noted the Bermuda lawyers' statement and invited them to address the question of notional estate, both generally and by specific reference to particular items of property located in New South Wales, which they contend constitutes the notional estate.
Notional estate orders are orders issued by the Court which are intended to make available for family provision orders assets that are no longer part of the estate of a deceased person as they have been distributed either before or after the deceased's death (either with or without the intention of defeating applications for family provision).
Notional estate provisions brought to the forefront the distinction of 'estate versus notional estate' that had been implicit in the decisions using the legislation prior to the introduction of the Family Provision Act 1982(NSW). The legislation ensures that 'estate' and 'notional estate' were different. Things subject to contracts (like mutual wills) were not within the definition of 'estate'. To bring such property within the legislation required the application of complex procedures and definitions of 'notional estate'. This requires a particular kind of transaction, an absence of relevant consideration, a defined time frame in which the transaction took effect and a range of other matters to be considered before property can be designated as notional estate and made the subject of an order for family provision under the Act.
Joy submitted that if the case were hashed out in open court, it would cause embarrassment, resentment and prurient media attention, which her husband never wanted and specifically avoided. Similarly the exact size of the estate shouldn't be of relevance to the case.
However the court disagreed, and gave Viola leave to determine the wealth of her father included granting access to her father's will and NSW properties for the purposes of valuing them.

The New Republic Staff/ July 16, 2007
Not Really Withdrawal
Newsweek has a piece on the Senate Republicans who are grumbling about Iraq. But what are they going to do about it? This here looks like a crucial caveat:
[Susan Collins] introduced a bipartisan amendment to immediately wind down combat operations and instead have troops focus on counterterrorism, border security and training Iraqi troops. Collins believes her plan--broadly similar to others floating around Congress--will result in a "significant drawdown of our troops."
Maybe. But military experts whom NEWSWEEK interviewed (among them senior officers serving in Iraq) suggest that for such a combination of missions to be done effectively, there would be little allowance for any reduction in troops. Given political realities, of course, adding troops is a nonstarter.
It's also not clear that "counterterrorism, border security and training" are things that actually should get greater emphasis: "Training" could just end up bolstering the various militias and making future sectarian warfare worse; it's not obvious that "border security" would significantly reduce the level of violence in Iraq (although it could increase the risk of a shooting incident with Iranian troops), and "counterterrorism" sounds like a license to carry on as usual, since presumably pretty much any operation can be considered "counterterrorism."
But this approach has the most support in Congress right now: Beyond Collins' amendment and the Iraq Study Group bill, even the Levin-Reed bill would shift troops to "counterterrorism, border security, and training" as a prelude to (perhaps) eventual withdrawal.

MANILA, Philippines — The Philippines anti-monopoly agency on Monday said it will review if Uber's sale of its business to rival Grab would lessen competition, a move that follows scrutiny by counterpart offices in other Southeast Asian nations.
According to the Philippine Competition Commission, Grab's acquisition of Uber would have a "far-reaching impact" on the country's riding public and transportation services.
"A merger or acquisition review using competition lens will determine whether the merger of two players in the ride-sharing market will substantially lessen competition," the commission said in a statement.
Specifically, the PCC said that it would probe into whether the deal would result in price increases, deterioration of ride-sharing services, fewer options for passengers and would hinder the possible entry of other transport network companies into the market.
If approved, the deal will leave Grab with a virtual monopoly of the market although the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board have said that at least three companies are interested in entering the market.
"The Grab-Uber acquisition is likely to have a far-reaching impact on the riding public and the transportation services. As such, the PCC is looking at the deal closely," PCC said.
Uber's decision to sell its Southeast Asia business is part of its strategy to stanch its losses and provide it with financial muscle to compete in other markets.
However, the decision of the PCC could pose a risk to Uber's strategy.
Grab and Uber would not be allowed to finalize the deal without PCC approval if the transaction is notifiable — or above the P2-billion threshold.
However, the PCC said the two parties should allow a voluntary review before signing the deal to minimize issues if anti-competition concerns were eventually discovered.
The PCC met with the representatives of Grab and Uber on Monday, the statement said.
"Should anti-competitive concerns arise out of the transaction review, the parties may propose commitments to remedy, mitigate, or prevent the negative effects to competition in the market after the acquisition," the PCC said.
If the two parties would not submit themselves voluntarily, the PCC could launch a review or file a case that would disentangle them or block the deal.
"PCC is committed to ensuring that Grab's acquisition of Uber in the Philippines will not harm the interest of the riding public," it said.
Aside from the Philippines, Malaysia and Singapore are also reviewing the deal on similar anti-competition concerns.
EasyCall Communications Philippines Inc. is pushing through with its plan to shift its focus toward data-centric technologies following a profitable 2018.


Just like the many MANY other customers, HughesNet also took an unauthorized payment from me. I canceled the very slow and terrible service when a serviceman came out to see what was wrong with my equipmentment and told me HughesNet does not work well for streaming Netflix. I told him that's all I wanted it for, I was misinformed and take the equipment because I don't want service. He told me that he would put in my cancellation but they would mail a box for equipment. Almost 2 months later I received a box in the mail and the next day HughesNet took $408 out of my checking account without my permission. I never said ok to automatic payments. I never do with any of my bills. I was NEVER told that I was agreeing to automatic payments upfront and that I had to call later to request a paper bill. I heard that for the first time today on the phone with HughesNet, months after I'd started service. That's their scam. And $408?! They said it was "tokens". I had to google what a token even was! I never called and ordered tokens, they told me I did it from my account online, but I've never even used my account online!! It's a scam and it's sad. I am a single mom with 4 little boys, I worked so hard to save that money to buy them Christmas gifts and the exact same day I had money put in my account, HughesNet took it out! 10 days before Christmas! I talked to 4 different people on the phone. Got no where. I was waiting for my final bill to come in the mail and planned to pay for it with a different card, not my kids Christmas money! I still never got a bill in the mail!! I hope HughesNet is happy that they stole Christmas from 4 little boys. They could've at least waited a couple weeks to steal my money! That would've sat better with me than doing it with my kids Christmas money!!
I'm disgusted with HughesNet for taking money out of my account without ever asking my permission and I'm disgusted after reading how many other people this has happened to. I will be sure to post this on several different sites so that hopefully others don't get screwed over the way I did.
Thank you for reaching out. I am very sorry to hear that this has happened to you. I have reviewed your billing, and I am going to have the issue escalated. Your cooperation, patience, and understanding are much appreciated.
What do you mean escalated? One person I talked to told me over and over that he was on the escalation department which is the highest department there is. Then after 10 more min of repeating himself he told me he spoke with his manager (thought he was highest up?) and his manager would call me back in 30 min. That was 6 hours ago.
The reps here are corporate based reps. If they say they're going to escalate it, they will do so and will stay on top of it until they get an answer to give to you.
That would be great because everyone I talked to on the phone sounded like they were repeating a written script. One man on the phone told me they may be able to figure out a refund on December 24! What?! Christmas Eve?!?! That's too late. I just want my money back so I can buy my kids Christmas gifts and pay HughesNet the way I intended to with the card I intended to. Not the money out of my account that I did not authorize them to use.
That would be great because everyone I talked to on the phone sounded like they were repeating a written script.
That's because they are repeating a written script.
Not to sound flippant, but I'm pretty sure the skillset required for Tier I telephone help is to be able to read/write American English and have a pulse.
I agree, they are just reading the same thing and sometimes their script doesn't even match the question asked. So they just repeat themselves.
Officially 24 hours since HughesNet took payment out of my account without authorization from me and I started calling and emailing. No resolution at all. Does being patient mean waiting until after Christmas to get my kids Christmas money back?
The Hughesnet reps on this site don't work weekends. Check back Monday after 9 am.


Sisters in Zion, Freshaire Designs: dinoFOUR!
We kept it simple. He's four. He likes dinosaurs. He likes his friends. Simple.
Here's my birthday boy, enjoying his simple yellow cake, topped with dinosaur toys and four candles. Easy to please. Love him!
His guests were greeted by his new favorite dinosaur, T-Rex!
My daughters read the children dinosaur stories while we waited for everyone to arrive.
Robbie set up his very own Dinosaur Museum. :) The one and only exhibit included his personal collection of dinosaurs. He was excited to show his friends!
Gradually add water until the mixture holds together.
Shape a handful of dough around one of the small toys and form into an egg shape.
Place the eggs onto a cookie sheet covered with foil.
Let them sit in a dry place until they are dry (about 4 days).
In a rush, I have also placed them into a warm oven to speed up the drying process.
Robbie's guests all went home with their own exploration bag (a small garden tool tote found at the 99cent store). We tucked surprises into every pocket: dinosaur toys, sweet treats and there was even room for their new dino terrarium.

Canucks' Hamhuis takes stick to the face, leaves briefly for repairs
By Cam TuckerOct 17, 2014, 11:21 PM EDT
Dan Hamhuis took a stick to the face and was cut open, with blood dripping on the ice as he went to the dressing room during the second period of Friday's game between the Vancouver Canucks and Edmonton Oilers.
There was no call on the play, as an Oilers' player lost their balance and caught Hamhuis around the nose.
Hamhuis went to the dressing room for repairs but returned before the end of the period, wearing a full face mask. Hamhuis was then called for delay of game for shooting the puck over the glass in his first shift back.
The Canucks were briefly down to four defenseman for a time in the second period. Hamhuis left temporarily, and Ryan Stanton left the game for good with what is believed to be a lower-body injury.

Freedom Solar launches new rebate program for rural solar customers
March 1, 2017 by Chris Crowell
Texas-based Freedom Solar announced a substantial new incentive for homeowners serviced in rural electric cooperatives (outside of Austin and San Antonio) to install solar on their homes.
"Our commitment as a company is to increase solar adoption across all areas of Texas, especially to the 75 rural electric cooperatives that serve more than 3 million residents but do not offer any economic incentives for solar generation," says Kyle Frazier, director of sales.
Freedom Solar is offering qualifying homeowners an up-front rebate of 15 cents per watt, up to $3,000. A qualifying homeowner is anyone who lives in a utility territory that does not currently offer a rebate for solar.
The discount represents the value of renewable energy credits generated by the residential solar system, which Freedom Solar will purchase from the customer and retire as part of the company's commitment to building a more sustainable future for generations to come.
Freedom Solar started utilizing the policy of purchasing renewable energy credits to offset the carbon footprint associated with its operations last year, and hopes to become entirely carbon-neutral by 2018.
Bret Biggart, managing director, says: "Over the past decade we've seen solar prices decrease and solar efficiency increase dramatically; however, the upfront cost of solar installations often makes it impossible for rural Texas residents to transition to renewable energy because they don't have access to the same substantial solar rebates offered by municipal city utilities. We've introduced this new program to change that and make solar accessible to all Texans."
Freedom Solar's innovative rural rebate program is made possible by their partnership with SunPower as a master dealer, the only company with that distinction in Texas. Freedom Solar will be able to provide 40 homeowners with this incentive to per quarter, for a total of 160 budgeted per year.

Geneva Bible
Bible, Geneva Bible, Book of Common Prayer, psalter
[Printed in London] The first edition of the Geneva was published in 1560 in Europe by English Reformationists who had fled there from England. This version was the Bible of the Puritans and the Pilgrims. This black letter copy is a quarto printing, with a 19th century binding. Also bound in the volume are two concordances, a 1609 Psalter, and a 1608 Book of Common Prayer.
The first edition of the Geneva Bible was published in 1560 in Europe, after many of the English reformationists fled to Geneva, Switzerland, because public reading of the Bible had been prohibited in England. John Calvin was a primary mover behind the translation and publication of this important protestant Bible. Although never officially adopted in England, for three generations the Geneva Bible was the most popular of all English versions, 140 editions being published between 1560 and 1640. This version was read by Shakespeare and John Bunyan and was of cardinal importance for its influence on English language, literature, and thought. The Geneva Bible was also the Bible of the Puritans and the Pilgrims, who fled to the religious freedom of the New World.
