A prominent downtown Nashville honky-tonk owner is part of a group moving forward to buy Old Hickory Country Club with substantial improvement plans that could include a public restaurant.
Steve Smith, his wife Leah Smith and Al Ross are part of the partnership group now doing "due diligence," on the private membership club. Closing is scheduled July 25, Steve Smith said.
Tootsie's Orchid Lounge, Rippy's Bar & Grill, Honky Tonk Central and The Diner Nashville are among businesses Steve Smith has an ownership stake in.
Old Hickory Country Club is owned as a member-equity club, which voted favorably by an approximate 90 percent margin to sell to the Smiths and Ross, Club President Ron Graham said.
The club on Old Hickory Boulevard in the heart of Old Hickory has seen a decline in membership over recent years.
"We've done some golf course investment, but the rest of the infrastructure is dated," Graham said. "Nice, but dated. Younger customers are looking for those facilities that are more modern … To attract younger members we need some of those things.
The public restaurant being considered would involve renovation of the ballroom facility within the clubhouse, Graham said. Plans for the rest of Old Hickory Country Club would be to remain as a private membership entity, according to Smith.
Old Hickory Country Club has around 325 members, about 200 less than 20 years ago, club members said. Smith is an Old Hickory Country Club member, Graham said.
The public restaurant can help offset operation and renovation costs and attract customers onsite that could potentially lead to more membership, Graham said.
Old Hickory Country Club was founded in 1926 by the DuPont Company for their employees, according to the website. The Old Hickory community has several redevelopment and revitalization projects in the works.
"Mr. Smith has been successful at everything else he's done, I have no doubt he'll be successful in this too," area Metro Councilman Larry Hagar said.


sexual harassment of court employees.
Several female court staff complained of sexual harassment and inappropriate behavior at the hands of Errol the Perv. In one instance, Errol engaged in the following colloquy with one of his victims.
As a consequence of his misconduct, the cheerleaders sitting on the Justices of the Peace Review Council punished Errol by gifting him with a complimentary censure.
As a consequence of his misconduct, the cheerleaders sitting on the Justices of the Peace Review Council have yet to mete out any punishment to Errol the Perv. However, given its sad record, at most Errol will receive a 30-day suspension.
As we speak (January 2015), Errol continues to sit as a Justice of the Peace in the Central East Region in Toronto, Canada.

Holidays are supposed to be a festive time of year, but with all the political divisiveness, natural disasters and even terrorism in downtown Manhattan yet again, it has become difficult to maintain a sense of calm or contentment. The endless news cycles and social media frenzies have us outraged, but at the same time, desensitized us to the horrors that occur in the world. How do we set aside the screens, and engage in productive and constructive conversations with our family and friends when we are so divided? And, how can we find peace and happiness in such stressful times?
Focusing on things we can agree on, make it easier to come to an understanding on the issues in which we don't see eye to eye. Everything is not black and white; there are plenty of grey areas. The idea is to find those areas where you may overlap. If you ask good questions, you will discover common values. Don't approach the dialogue as being all or nothing; you don't have to be "with someone" or "against them." Don't think us versus them. Have an open mind.
Mindfulness can help by increasing our awareness of how stress affects us. When we are stressed, we become reactive and quick to respond, especially with our families. Take time to pause when you are triggered by something or someone; then focus on the thoughts that accompany those feelings. Ask yourself: am I putting my own judgments on top of this experience? Am I making assumptions or jumping to conclusions? Drop into your body and notice where you are feeling the stress, anxiety or anger. Is it in your chest, throat, or belly? If you get out of your head and into your body, the feeling will shift. Pause before you respond. Give yourself some space.
My famous line is that we are all doing the best we can. Some friends give me a lot of grief for that line, but I truly believe we are doing our best with the information and experience we have. When others act out with anger and hurtful behavior, it usually comes from a place of pain. What did that person experience to make them act a certain way? Rarely is it personal. You don't need to condone the hurtful behavior, but at least try and understand from where it is coming. When our anger turns to compassion and understanding, we become more peaceful. We actually can empathize with their pain, and realize it's not about us.
Another way to build your empathy muscle is to try and send positive thoughts to those you don't particularly care for, or with whom you are angry. This is not an easy task, but will also cultivate compassionate and allow you to become a more peaceful person. After all, if they suffer less, so will you. This does not mean we don't fight for what we believe, and allow others to walk all over us, we are just in a better place to be able to respond appropriately.
The holiday season can be busy and stressful, but take time to find the joy. See the good in people. We are all inextricably connected, and have moments of shared joy and shared pain, which unite us. Many of us felt the collective pain after Hillary lost the election, but also participated in the shared, fun experiences at the various community events in town. The way people helped each other around the country after the hurricanes regardless of political beliefs was incredible, and the way we rally around people in need in this community is just as heartening.
Just scroll through Chappaqua Moms, to see the compassion of the community helping those in need, (despite some of the other posts on there). Noticing moments like this bring us together as a nation and as a community, regardless of political beliefs and election results. So, this holiday season, whether you're shopping at ICD or Squires, eating lunch at Le Jardin du Roi or having coffee at Tazza; look up from your phone and really notice the people around you. See the good, and have faith in humanity. Even though we may disagree, we are still very much connected.


No trick, just jump.;) Hopefully I'm not insulting your intelligence, but walk to the edge of the bridge and tap backwards. Now hold forwards and immediately press the jump button. While in the air, press and hold the action button to hang on the the ledge.
I know. I have been doing that for the last 10 times...I keep killing her.
Don't grab too early when you're in the air, otherwise Lara will miss the other side of the bridge.
C'mon now! That's an easy jump. You can do it.
You just need a bit of encouragement!


This packet includes five days of activities to be used in a high school chemistry class. These activities should accompany a 2-3 week long unit on acid base chemistry.
Rainbow Connection Demonstration- Introduces acids and bases in a visual way. Students will observe indicators and their response to changes in pH. They will also observe how pH change can be a reversible process. This could be the first day beginning a unit a acid base chemistry.
Measuring pH of Household Chemicals- This two day activity should follow several days of instruction on acids and bases. The pH scale should also be introduced in terms of concentration of H+ and OH- ions. The second part of this experiment is dependent on the availability of computer interfaced probes. The procedure of this part should be expanded or supplemented accordingly. If probes are unavailable the second day may be omitted.
How Does a Buffer Affect pH?- This experiment should follow a discussion of buffer solutions in terms of H+ cations, OH- anions, and disassociation of weak and strong bases. Students should also be able to recognize the acid and base components of conjugate acid/base pairs.
Microscale Titration-This activity uses phenolphthalein to indicate when an acidic acid has been titrated with a NaOH solution. By knowing the normality of the NaOH solution and the amount of drops used to titrate the acidic acid solution, the normality of an acidic acid solution can be calculated. This experiment should follow several lectures on the normality of solutions. Students should also be familiar with different measures of concentrations including molarity and molality.
This demonstration will be an introduction to a weeks worth of activities exploring acid/base chemistry. Several different ph indicators will be used to produce a wide array of colors. These indicators will be colorless under acidic conditions, but when a base is added, they will produce the three primary colors. By carefully mixing the indicators, all the colors of the rainbow will be produced. Six beakers are filled with the same "mystery" liquids. Each glass beaker takes on a different color of the rainbow, despite the fact that the same liquids were added to each. These solutions can be used several times and have a good shelf life.
Shows the dramatic color change of solutions containing indicators at different pH levels.
Demonstrates the reversibility of indicator color changes.
Get students thinking about how H+ and OH- ions interact.
This demonstration could be used in both junior and high school when covering acids bases and indicators. Class size can vary considerably. It could even be given to a large audience given the proportions are increase to increase visibility.
This is a vivid exercise that should hold the student's interest.
The idea that you are performing magic using 'mystery' solutions can be used to increase their interest.
This demonstration makes a great introduction to acid/base chemistry.
Assign the students the readings in their textbooks that begin with acid base chemistry. Be sure to include readings on pH indicators. Students then should have some understanding about how this lab was executed.
Students will not be handling solutions so it should be safe if they don't wear safety glasses. This would also depend on school policy.
Beakers should be visible to the entire audience.
Demonstration should be tested before presenting.
The solutions in this demonstration should be prepared at least a day before the presentation.
Some thought should be given on how this demonstration should be given.
The following recipes are for the six different indicator solutions. Each recipe will produce 15 mL of solution. These solutions should be made at least one day in advance to allow the solutes to fully dissolve into solution. Use 15 mL of 95% ethanol as the solvent for all six solutions.
Mix 250 mL 0.05 M aqueous sulfuric acid with 250 mL 95% ethanol. Transfer into a large pitcher.
Prepare 1200 mL of 0.012 M NaOH solution transfer into a large pitcher. Make sure you know which pitcher is the acid and which is the base.
Prepare 100 mL of 0.2 M NaOH solution and transfer into a dropper bottle.
Dissolve 10 mL of 18 M H2SO4 in 20 mL of glycerol. Transfer into a dropper bottle.
Let the indicator solution dry on the bottom of the glass. This should take about 30 minutes.

Millions of Red Crabs Have Overrun a Tiny Island on Their Annual Migration
The crabs are on the move for their yearly trip to the sea to mate. It's quite a scene.

Folks living on Christmas Island, an Australian territory in the Indian Ocean, were greeted with a familiar but bizarre sight this week: thousands of bright red crabs scuttling en masse down roads, across yards, and over special bridges set up for them to cross busy streets.
These crabs (species name Gecarcoidea natalis) live only on Christmas Island, which has an estimated 120 million of them. (That gives the crabs a more than 91,000-to-1 ratio with the island's human inhabitants.) This week, they're making their annual journey to the coastline for the start of the mating season.
"This year's migration has just been absolutely epic," Christmas Island National Park natural resource manager Brendan Tiernan told Reuters. "The roads have been a seething mass of red crabs. It's caused traffic jams on this small island and people having to get out of their cars and rake them out the way."
That Crabs Are Taking a Yearly Trip
The crabs migrate every year, in tandem with the start of the rainy season, which usually begins in October or November but can lag to December or even January. Around 40 to 50 million of the island's crabs trek across the island to reach the shoreline for mating season. While most people associate crabs with the ocean, Christmas Island is home to several terrestrial crab species that live in the lush rainforests of the 52-square-mile (135-square-kilometer) island, including the red crabs.
The crabs actually set their biological clocks for this migration to coincide with a very specific set of environmental circumstances as well as the lunar calendar. After the first rain of the rainy season, the crabs know that their optimal time for mating is during the last quarter of the moon, before dawn as the tide is going out. According to Parks Australia, this timing can change the makeup of the trip; if rains come close to the ideal spawning date, the crabs will rush across the island, but they'll take a more leisurely road trip if they know they have some time.
A Dangerous Journey for Crustaceans
Crabs walking over a crab bridge.
The journey to the shore can be perilous. Crabs are forced to migrate across large stretches of human infrastructure, including roads and highways. The island has built special "crab bridges" to help the critters cross the busiest stretches of road.
Christmas Island also has an invasive ant population, known as the "yellow crazy ant," or Anoplolepis gracilipes. These ants were accidentally brought to the island between 1915 and 1930 and contain an acid that can blind the crabs. Researchers estimate that the ants may have killed tens of millions of red crabs since their arrival on the island.
Climate change could also pose a threat to the crabs. Because the crabs' migration is so delicately balanced between lunar cycles and the start of the rainy season, research has shown that delays in rain or otherwise erratic rainfall precipitated by changing weather patterns and climate change could have a real impact on the crabs' migration. During one particularly dry season, researchers found, the crabs didn't migrate at all.
Mating And Spawning in the Ocean
When they get to the ocean, after taking a little swim to get some of their moisture back, the male crabs will dig burrows on the shoreline, often fighting with each other for the best spots. They'll then invite the females over to mate in or around the burrows.
After the migration, the male crabs will pop back to the forest, while females will stay in the ocean for another two weeks to produce eggs. Each female can carry up to 100,000 eggs, which she holds in a brood pouch for those two weeks. Over the course of five or six days during the last quarter phase of the moon, before sunrise, the females will release their eggs into the water.
Tiny larvae will hatch out of the eggs, and the petite hatchlings will make their own journey back to the forest where their parents came from. Crabs can live for more than 12 years, so these younger crabs will make their own migration to the shore around the ages of four to five.
Some People Are Getting 'Covered in Crabs' (Willingly)
Members of the public and Parks Australia staff rack away thousands of red crabs off a road.
Australia's Parks division says the crab migration is the island's biggest tourist attraction. The island closes some roads to make crab passage safer, while information posted on notice boards and local radio stations give updates during the migration.
"Some people were quite freaked out by the fact that they're surrounded by millions of crawling arthropods, whereas other people are just immersed—basically [they] do a little red crab angel," Tiernan said. "They'll lie on [the] ground and let themselves get covered in red crabs."

You've likely driven by it, coming from the DVP to the Gardner, or the Eastern street overpass, or while getting to the Distillery District. Acres of land–a former industrial area–sitting vacant in downtown Toronto, next to some of Toronto's most vibrant areas: South Riverdale, Leslieville, Cherry Beach, the Distillery District, Cabbagetown and St Lawrence Market. The West Don Lands.
In 2015 the Pan Am Games are coming to Toronto, and with it the redevelopment of the West Don Lands and Toronto's eastern waterfront. Under the guidance of Waterfront Toronto, an entire area is being conceived. A completely new neighbourhood, built from scratch. It kind of reminds me of what Liberty Village was 10 years ago, except much better planned and more central to downtown.
The area has spawned a number of new developments, including River City and Canary District. River City is perhaps the crown jewel of the new lands, a multi-phase development that won Best High Rise Building Design award from BILD in 2010 for its phase one design. And if phase one impressed, phase two is sure to wow. It's comprised of three side-by-side white glass mini-towers, each 12-stories, that are connected by glass bridges. The 12 penthouses each have a private rooftop garden, some over 1,000 square feet, which include a green roof feature. Cool stuff.
When the 2015 Pan Am games hit, this area is going to be an amazing example of urban planning, with all the amenitites and access that downtown provides…without being right downtown.


We are all aware of how rapidly networks are expanding, and the impact that this is having on the attack surface. Anyone paying close attention to digital transformation, however, has also seen that networks aren't just expanding. They are also converging. And the challenge from a security standpoint is that the vast majority of the security solutions we have in place were simply never designed to meet the security requirements of a hyperconverged network. And for the most part, it's our fault.
Business drivers are forcing rapid network evolution. The majority of organizations now have a multi-cloud solution in place, often with more than one IaaS provider in addition to multiple SaaS providers. They are replacing their traditional WAN connections with SD-WAN solutions that runs over public networks. Billions of IoT devices are being added at a breakneck pace. 5G and edge networking is about to completely decentralize and redistribute things like data centers. And remote users using mobile devices that combine business and private data are now the rule rather than the exception. And this doesn't even include things like Shadow IT.
But rather than networks being comprised of a disparate and distributed set of individual networking components, they are being woven together into a single, hypermeshed fabric. 5G, SD-WAN, Edge computing, the cloud, and IoT devices are now being blended together to allow workflows, applications, and other transactions to flow through and between each of these ecosystems.
Complicating the issue further, these complex private IT networks are being blended with other networks, such as OT, public infrastructures, and even competing/complementary entities in order to accelerate response time and to deliver a complete solution to customers. This emerging hyperconnected digital environment raises the stakes for security teams even higher.
Complicating matters further, most of traditional security tools and platforms that organizations have in place—or that are still being offered by the vast majority of security vendors—operate in isolation. They have a limited span of control and a shockingly primitive inability to share and correlate intelligence with, or especially, coordinate a systemic response to any detected threat with other devices or platforms—especially those from other vendors. And with the emergence of multi-vector malware, even if a security system is able to identify a new threat and shut it down in one part of the network, it may still be able to break through and wreak havoc in another.
One result of using a fragmented security strategy to secure a complex and evolving network is that threats slip through the gaps, giving them more time to engage in malicious activity. One recent threat report shows that in Q4 of 2018, botnets that were able to penetrate perimeter defenses have been able to extend their dwell time by 15%, which means they now enjoy nearly 12 uninterrupted days to scout for other devices to infect, compromise systems, and exfiltrate data back to their C2 servers.
As a result, 6 of the top 12 exploits identified by researchers in Q4 were IoT related, with 4 of the top 12 related to IP-enabled cameras. Access to IoT IP cameras could allow cybercriminals to snoop on private interactions, initiate malicious onsite activities, and gain entry into cyber systems where they can access launch DDoS attacks, steal proprietary information, initiate a ransomware attack, and more. This is a direct result of the convergence between physical and cyber security that has not only created an expanded attack surface, but that has introduced critical gaps in our security deployments.
1. Replace isolated security tools with ones that can see and share information with others. This means more than deploying several devices or platforms from a single vendor. Different tools—from NGFWs and IPS systems to WAFs and email to anti-virus, anti-malware, and Advanced Threat Protection—need to be able to collaborate and coordinate to respond to threats. This includes leveraging Open APIs and open standards to communicate between solutions from different vendors.
2. Tools need to operate consistently and natively in every environment in which they are deployed. This means that if your vendor doesn't have an equivalent solution for physical, virtual, and a variety of cloud environments, it's time to look for a new vendor.
3. Security needs to be connected together using a common set of threat intelligence and a centralized management and orchestration tool to analyze data, push consistent policies out to every networked domain, and ensure consistent policy enforcement.
4. Segmentation is not only essential, it also needs to be able to extend across multiple domains in order to provide real-time protection for workflows, applications, and transactions that move between a variety of connected resources.
5. This integrated and collaborative solution also needs to perform a digital speed in every single place they are deployed.
6. And finally, they need to be able to dynamically adapt to changes to the network as well as to the threat landscape. This requires tools that can not only be highly automated, but that leverage AI and machine learning to improve security processes, reduce false positives, respond to and even anticipate threats, and be mapped to specific automation protocols in place inside the network.
While many organizations are struggling to secure their diverse, complex, and rapidly expanding networks, they are now facing a new challenge created by convergence. Organizations that fail to begin now to rethink and retool their security solutions and strategies will not survive the next wave of digital transformation just around the corner.

Munkie didn't make it out to the meetings - it's not really his bag. He did make it for a photo op with the Franco Harris statue in the airport - there was also a life sized statue of George Washington there, too.

In floating catalyst chemical vapor deposition (FC-CVD), tuning chirality distribution and obtaining narrow chirality distribution of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is challenging. Herein, by introducing various amount of CO2 in FC-CVD using CO as a carbon source, we have succeeded in directly synthesizing SWCNT films with tunable chirality distribution as well as tunable colors. In particular, with 0.25 and 0.37 volume percent of CO2, the SWCNT films display green and brown colors, respectively. We ascribed various colors to suitable diameter and narrow chirality distribution of SWCNTs. Additionally, by optimizing reactor temperature, we achieved much narrower (n,m) distribution clustered around (11,9) with extremely narrow diameter range (>98% between 1.2 and 1.5 nm). We propose that CO2 may affect CO disproportionation and nucleation modes of SWCNTs, resulting in SWCNTs' various diameter ranges. Our work could provide a new route for high-yield and direct synthesis of SWCNTs with narrow chirality distribution and offer potential applications in electronics, such as touch sensors or transistors.


Mom note: Scott seemed to have some technical difficulties this week. We received the start of a message, and then received a reply to that email that seemed to start again, and not finish the partial sentence from the other. I decided to include both here, with a short note between them. Hopefully he will find a computer that he can send pictures from next week. Since it gives it "flavor", I decided to leave the typos.
Let me start off by apologizing for any spelling mistakes. I am writing on a french keyboard and I am trying to go fast still.
My companion is Elder Onyeabor (own-yeah-bore) and he is from Salt Lake. He actually is from Salt Lake/Oregon, but he just says Salt Lake! I will be including a lot of exclaimation marks because it is easier to type than periods. He has been out here a long time, and President Adams is not a fan of the mission lingo so he has put his foot down. He is my trainer, not my dad. We will be together for a minimum of 12 weeks as that is the training programs these days. Then after who knows what is going to happen. He is pretty sure that he is going to leave, and in September when my training ends there are 15 new Elders coming and so he thinks that I might have to train. Talk about a unreal experience!
I was going to start sending pictures, but this computer is from the stone ages and I dont think has any accessible usb ports. When I say stone ages, I mean it has a floppy drive reader.
FOOD!!! Let us talk about food. So As you know I am a rather picky eater. So here is the situation. On p-day we shop at ShopRite and can get some food. The food is a little pricy, and not American quality. However I can get things like peanut butter. All milk comes in boxes and on the shelf, not in the fridge. I think it tastes horrible, but I put up with it for cereal in the morning. Cereal tastes pretty weird as well. The older elders say that there is one type that is actually quite good, but it is never in stock. The staple of missionaries is of course Sedap. Sedap is like Ramam. I make my Sedap to taste almost exactly like Chicken Raman. We have been told to not eat at the hotely's and the street vendors. We are being pretty obedient to that one. I wouldn't want to anyways because it is all Malagasy food and I have not acquired a taste yet for that. We can get meat and stuff at ShopRite as well. Sometimes we go out to eat at Restaurants because we can! :) We do buy stuff from epeceries on the street like bread and things. A delicious loaf of bread is 300 ariary which is the equivalent of 15 cents. I love buying pasteries because they are way cheap and good. At members homes and the restaurants I have had some interesting things. At one we ate root, I forget the malagasy term for it. It is kinda like a potato, but not really. They are just these big roots that grow in the ground. The main meal of malagasies is rice and lok, and I had that a someones house. The lok is just a topping and it changes all the time for every meal. This one was green beans and sasuage... I ate it, but wasn't in love. I am craving american food. The pizza here is thin crust and not the same. If you have any really simple recipies I would love to have some. I found some in my apartment and I think I am going to go buy the ingredients today for some sweets:) But as far as for a package, american candy is expensive here, and things like boxed brownie mixes, things like that I would enjoy. I am also going to look today for like drink mixes, but if you want to throw those in I would be happy. I have already lost weight I can tell, but I didn't go to the office this morning so I don't know how much I have lost.
Enough on food, I am starving now. So supposedly Tana is like the 2nd dirtiest cities in the world I have heard, but my area is not too bad. The worst area is 67, pronounced soixante sept, which is supposedly the dirtiest place in the world that missionaries work in. I am not there, and kinda glad. The hills kill me though. Supposedly the area I am in is average, but we are always climbing hills. Up and down all day long. I crossed a couple of rice paddies already, and I kinda slipped into one of them. The thin path gave way and my foot slipped in. Didn't feel to good.
Our apartment has a shower with hot water, a washer and dryer, missionaries are among the elite who have them here in Mada, we have a toilet, and so far I have been really good about timing myself to only have to go when I am at home! We have a small kitchen, our stove is run off of gas in a container, we have a filter on our sink for drinking water when we want it, and then we have a big room with 4 beds and 4 desks a tqble, couch, and fireplace. They have before had 6 elders living there and there are rumors of going back to that, which would make it slightly cramped in there.
A few things that bother the heck out of me, and the missionaries eventually get used it, but it bothers me right now. People stare..... A white person means stare at them. Everyone just looks. I get called Vazaha every like 2 minutes zhich meand white foreigner. And since I am a Vazaha that means I speak french. So they say bonjour Vazaha, and then I respond in malagasy, and they still speak french to me most of the time. Vazaha isnt mean, its just what they do. Some people are mean though and say mean things to me, but my companion yells at them, but he wont tell me what they are saying.
Some people asked me what my favorite part is, and it has to be the kids. The kids here are amazing and they love running up to us and giving us Dona's. A dona is a fist bump, and the kids run up to us and climb all over us. I am going to enjoy the kids because this is something you don't get in the US.
So happy belated birthday mom!!! And happy belated 4th!! Both of those days I was a bit trunky. People here have so little, and I have realized how blessed the United States is. I already knew it was, but now it is amazing to me.
Feel free to ask more questions, otherwise I do not always know what to write about!
I love you so so so so so much! I love the United States and the opportunities that we have there.


Finding the right mortgage lender involves more than getting a good interest rate for your mortgage loan. You would feel great when you work with a mortgage company that has been staffed with professionals who will ensure that you are guided very well in the process. Here we have discussed main tips that you need to consider when you are choosing a mortgage lender when you are buying a new home. Take time to focus on the credit score as it outlines all the critical details that you have for your mortgage processing as this is very essential for you. To be approved, you need to ensure that your reports have accurate and do not have any errors as these may be a threat to the kind of procedure that is suitable for you.
You should be aware of the lending landscape that would work for you. With the market has a high number of people, it can be complicated for you to get a lender who is right, you will need to ensure that you have the right strategies to help you out. As the high number of people can be confusing, you need to look at ways that you can be able to filter the number by looking through various licensing companies. You can also consider reviews by companies and sites like BBB, it will be very important for you.
Comparing the rates of the different mortgage lenders is important if you wish to settle with the right mortgage. Although it is going to be a lot of work for you, the fruits and results are going to be worth your efforts. Every lender out there is searching for that lender who will offer mortgage at lower costs instead of the ones with very high ones. For you to get the best rates, you only need to play your cards well and do as you are asked to do about research and a great comparison. Again, you might get confused about deciding which lender to deal with now that you can get a mortgage from; neighborhood banks, commercial banks and also from online lenders.
Finally, you may want to know you are asking the kind of questions asked to lenders and this is the reason you need good research as well. You all know how tricky it is to pick the right broker or lender, right? It becomes easier when you use these questions to eliminate other lenders from your list now that your work of choosing the right one becomes easier. Also, you can consult your family and friends so that you be certain of the lender you are about to deal with.
Those who are thinking of buying their own homes might be extremely excited about it, as they have finally arrived at a time in their lives that they have always looked forward to. One might already seen the dream house that he or she wants to buy, but feel disappointed because its price is so much higher than the standard limit for home mortgages and loans. One will be happy to know that he or she does not have to give up on owning this dream house, as it is possible to get a jumbo home loan from the right company. If you find an excellent company that offers jumbo home loans, then, and you decide to apply for a loan there for the house that you really want, you can be sure that you will be able to gain a lot of benefits through it.
There are many benefits to getting a jumbo home loan, and one of the biggest and most obvious of them is the chance to get enough money for a luxury dream house. Those who have found the house that they want might feel discouraged when they apply for standard loans and find that the amount they can get falls far short of its price. Those who really want to buy their dream house, then, and know that they can afford it, should get a jumbo home loan.
One who decides to get a jumbo home loan will also be glad about it, as through it, he or she will be able to enjoy convenience. One might be thinking of getting two different home loans from separate companies if one's dream house is too expensive to be covered by just one home loan. However, this is something that can take a lot of time and a lot of energy, and it is therefore so much easier and so much more convenient for one to go for a jumbo home loan instead, as it is one large loan paid off at only once source.
Finding the best company offering jumbo home loans is also a good idea, as when you do so, you can be sure that the plan that you get will be very flexible. They can work closely with the company in order to get the plan with the right amount, fixed or adjustable rates, and so on, finding something that is perfect for them.

Philippe Méaille (* 27. April 1973 in Enghien-les-Bains) ist ein französischer Schriftsteller und Kunstsammler. Er ist Gründer und Präsident des Schlosses Montsoreau – Museum für zeitgenössische Kunst. Derzeit besitzt Méaille die weltweit größte Sammlung von Art & Language-Werken.

Werdegang
Nach seinem Abschluss am Lycée Vauban in Pontoise wurde Méaille an der Pariser Universität Descartes aufgenommen, wo er Pharmazie studierte. Méaille begann seine Kunstsammlung aufzubauen, als er als Student in Paris ankam. 1994 begann Méaille, Verbindungen zu Künstlern der Art & Language aufzubauen, darunter den Galeristen Eric Fabre. Méaille erwarb 1996 eine große Anzahl von Werken von der Schweizer Rothschild Bank. Diese Werke waren 1972 vom Schweizer Galeristen Bruno Bischofberger erworben worden.

Méaille hat seitdem die weltweit größte Sammlung von Art & Language Werken zusammengestellt.

Im Jahr 2000 installierte Méaille seine Sammlung im Château de la Bainerie, einem ehemaligen Sommerlager der Stadt Argenteuil.
Die Sammlung von Art & Language werken erstreckt sich über eine Fläche von 50.000 Quadratmetern des Schlosses. 2006 organisierte Méaille eine öffentliche Ausstellung mit der Beaux-Arts-Schule in Nantes. 2011 kündigte Méaille dem MACBA eine langfristige Leihgabe von 800 Art & Language werken an. 2014 wurde Jill Silverman van Coenegrachts zur Kuratorin der Méaille-Kollektion.

Im Jahr 2014 veranstaltete der MACBA eine große Retrospektive der Gruppe Art & Language, deren Titel Art & Language Unvollendet: Die Philippe Méaille Collection. Die Retrospektive enthielt von Méaille entliehene Werke.

2015 unterzeichnete Méaille einen Pachtvertrag über eine Dauer von 25 Jahren für das Schloss Montsoreau, eine Burg im Loire-Tal. Im selben Jahr gründete Méaille das Schloss Montsoreau – Museum für zeitgenössische Kunst, in dem rund 80 Werke seiner Sammlung ständig ausgestellt sind.

2017 beschloss Méaille, seinen Leihvertrag mit dem MACBA nicht zu verlängern. Stattdessen entschied er sich, seine gesamte Sammlung in das Schloss Montsoreau – Museum für zeitgenössische Kunst zu bringen. Er erklärte, der Hauptgrund für diese Entscheidung sei die politische Instabilität in Katalonien.

Bakers keep pretty rigorous schedules and it isn't always easy to get us out of our own kitchens, let alone together for a whole weekend of baking. So when I was asked to keynote the 12th annual Kneading Conference in Skowhegan, Maine in July, I enthusiastically (albeit nervously) responded yes!
The conference was initiated as an approach to restoring local grain economies in the state of Maine but has grown significantly to include participants from other states and Canada as well. Even one of my favorite Florida bakers who also happens to be an heirloom dent corn farmer and organic cane syrup maker flew up to volunteer and participate!
Interests have expanded beyond baking and a diverse audience was in attendance including brewers, maltsters, wheat researchers, farmers, wood-fired bakers and oven builders, and even heirloom corn preservationists.
Excited for an audience that might geek out on the complexities of baking and leavening with natural ingredients, I asked my good friend Susannah Gebhart (owner of OWL Bakery in Asheville, NC) to co-teach a class together. Susannah and I met over a pile of chanterelle mushrooms a number of years ago and have reconnected every summer since to celebrate the beauty and culinary inspiration of the natural world.
Her pastry prowess is infinitely inspiring and I was so grateful for another opportunity to collaborate in the serenely wild state of Maine!
Of course we heard the siren call of the mushroom again and our collective luck fed us heartily for several meals and sent us home packing with a bounty of delicious fungus!
Our class included creating and using a yeast water made from foraged botanicals such as wild carrot, a technique not unlike the one I describe in Sourdough to create a sourdough starter.
Susannah taught us the infinite possibilities of foraged nuts including hickory nut pastry cream and acorn flour profiteroles!
There were a number of other classes I poked my head into every spare minute, including a track led by Sharon Burns Leader of Bread Alone Bakery, a no-waste bread recipe course by Stephanie Swane (publisher of Modernist Cuisine), wood-fired baking with Blair Marvin of Elmore Mountain Bread and Stefan Senders of Wide Awake Bakery, and all things rye with the Rye Baker himself (and last year's keynote) Stanley Ginsberg.
Although my nerves might have gotten the best of me on the keynote stage, it was incredibly inspiring to have met so many people who are motivated by the need to address growing grains as an important cornerstone in the local food movement. The conference ended with a tour of Main Grains where I have been sourcing flour this year, a decision I made to support a regional community of northeast farmers and millers.
To celebrate the conference and invite locals into the activities, a Bread Fair finished off the weekend with delightful offerings from Maine bakers, culinary artisans, and demonstration booths.
A sincere thank you to the Maine Grain Alliance, conference organizers, volunteers, and our hosts for memorable summer weekend of baking!

Q: Automatically set DateTime in new record Automatically updating the dateTime in edit view when saved - this works fine. I have used the following code to acheive this...
@Html.HiddenFor(model => model.Posted, Model.Posted = DateTime.Now)

the poblem lies with the create new record. I am trying to implement automatic datetime entry however the code above does not work?
The error which is being displayed is:

NullReferenceException was unhandled by user code (object reference
  not set to an instance of an object

the following code is from the controller:
    //
    // GET: /cars/Create

    public ActionResult Create()
    {
        return View();
    }

    // POST: /cars/Create

    [HttpPost]
    [ValidateInput(false)]

    public ActionResult Create(cars newsitem)
    {
        try
        {
            using (var db = new carsNewsEntities())
            {
                db.cars.Add(cars);
                db.SaveChanges();
            }
            return RedirectToAction("Index");
        }
        catch
        {
            return View();
        }
    }

A: Instead of putting the responsibility of knowing how to initialize a new object on the view, I would suggest setting that date time in either 1) a static factory create method that your services would know to call or 2) the empty constructor of your model object.
public MyModelObject()
{
    Posted = DateTime.Now;
}

Btw, I think you're getting the null reference exception because your "Posted" property is likely not nullable... If my guess is right, you may be able to still get your way to work by making it nullable (but you loose the non-null enforcement)...

A: Try passing a new object to your view:
//
// GET: /News/Create

public ActionResult Create()
{
    return View(new NewsItem ());
}

Though I would set that field in the controller:
//
// GET: /News/Create

public ActionResult Create()
{
    var viewModel = new NewsItem { Posted = DateTime.Now };
    return View(viewModel);
}

A: Even though above solution worked  but If you have different columns as CreatedDate and ModifiedDate then above solution is not working.
It is setting createdDate null after updating record.
to overcome that I tried below line in Edit View and It worked.
@Html.HiddenFor(model => model.EntryDateTimeStamp, Model.EntryDateTimeStamp = Model.EntryDateTimeStamp)
@Html.HiddenFor(model => model.ModifiedDateTime, Model.ModifiedDateTime = DateTime.Now)

and similarly in Create View I did similar thing
@Html.HiddenFor(model => model.EntryDateTimeStamp, Model.EntryDateTimeStamp = DateTime.Now)

and pass new object in controller like above mentioned answer.
 return View(new NewsItem ());

No matter what point you're at in your career, standing out as a top employee should be at the top of your list of goals. If you're just getting started, it's the best way to help yourself climb the corporate ladder and if you've been in your career for a while, you're in a position to mentor and exemplify how to be the best. From going that extra mile, to having the best attitude around, here are eight ways to stand out as the best in a sea of employees.
You're excited to learn. No matter if you've been in a job for one week or ten years, you should always be willing and excited to learn new things – that's how you continually grow and evolve – and it's a top priority for employers.
You make attention to detail a top priority. There's nothing worse than sending off an email or submitting a project for approval that hasn't been properly reviewed and edited. Attention to detail means you really care about your work and the way your work represents you as an employee.
You have confidence, but you're not overbearing. It's essential to have confidence in the workplace – that's exactly how you get things done. But, your approach to and with the rest of the team also reflects a sense of collaboration – and that's why people really love working with you.
You know how to figure it out. Sometimes work projects can feel like insurmountable mountains, with so many details to figure out along the way. But you're resourceful and you know just how to get the job done.
You're excited to be there. This is huge because enthusiasm is one of those things that can be felt by everyone around you. When you're emitting positive vibes, the energy is contagious and everyone loves that.
You show up on time, every day and you're ready to go. Being reliable is an excellent trait to have – it makes employers feel great to know they can trust someone with a project or responsibilities that are crucial to the success of their business.
You're always ready for that next step. Rather than simply being content with status quo, presenting yourself as an employee who has a mind for growth is one of the best qualities you can bring to the table. Employers and leaders want to know that they're working with people who are committed to developing a career. If you've been working in the same place with the same position for a while – that's great too – when you're ready to grow into a mentor and a leader, your value will become extremely apparent.
You have a smile on your face. When you're happy in your position, people can tell. Your energy will spread like wildfire to your team, customers, clients and supervisors – and, it's a welcome vibe. So put that smile on, get excited and head to the office ready to blow everyone away each and every day.
So, what do you think? Are these achievable goals to ensure your position as a top employee?

Stephen Turley
I Supply Company/Parisi Transportation
PROFESSIONAL TRUCK DRIVER'S PROFESSIONALISM SHINES THROUGH
The Truckload Carriers Association (TCA) is proud to recognize Stephen Turley of Huber Heights, Ohio, who drives for I Supply Company/Parisi Transportation of Fairborn, Ohio.
On October 5, 2012, an anonymous woman called I Supply Company stating that she had been driving behind Turley's truck when he stopped at a red light. Because she was distracted, the woman had nearly hit Turley. The extremely close call was too much for the woman, who was so shaken up that she had to pull over to compose herself. Turley stopped, got out of his truck, and asked if the woman was okay. He expressed sincere concern for her well-being and made sure she was okay before moving on.
The woman wanted the company to know how grateful she was for Turley's conduct. She stated that most drivers would have just kept on going, and she was appreciative of Turley's professionalism and efforts to check up on her.
Shawn Rehs, transportation lead supervisor at I Supply Company/Parisi Transportation and the person who nominated Turley as a Highway Angel, said, "Though it is rare to receive a call from an anonymous person stating such favorable comments, it is not a surprise that it would involve Steve Turley. Steve continues to be an outstanding employee and delivery driver with over 16 years of dedication to [our company]."
For his efforts to help the woman, Turley has received a Highway Angel lapel pin, certificate, and patch. I Supply Company/Parisi Transportation also received a certificate acknowledging that one of its drivers is a Highway Angel.
The Highway Angel program is sponsored for TCA by Internet Truckstop. Since the program's inception in August 1997, hundreds of drivers have been recognized as Highway Angels for the unusual kindness, courtesy, and courage they have shown others while on the job. TCA has received letters and e-mails from people across North America nominating truck drivers for the program.

Palmer Mills, Stockport were cotton spinning mills in Portwood, Stockport, Greater Manchester. Built in the late 19th century, It was taken over by the Lancashire Cotton Corporation in the 1930s and sold on. Renamed the Stockport Paper Mill they survived into the 21st century when they were demolished to be replaced by modern businesses.

Location
It lies on elevated ground on the River Mersey at the confluence of the rivers Goyt and Tame,  southeast of the city of Manchester. Stockport is the largest settlement of the Metropolitan Borough of Stockport.

Historically a part of Cheshire, Stockport in the 16th century was a small town entirely on the southbank of the Mersey, and known for the cultivation of hemp and rope manufacture and in the 18th century the town had one of the first mechanised silk factories in the United Kingdom. However, Stockport's predominant industries of the 19th century were the cotton and allied industries. The Stockport Branch of the Ashton Canal terminated at the top of Lancashire Hill, in Heaton Norris, but Stockport was rich in railway connections. The Cheshire Lines Committee built their viaduct across the River Mersey and ran the Stockport, Timperley and Altrincham Junction Railway which serviced Portwood and Stockport Tiviot Dale railway station.

Palmer Mill was on Mersey St reflecting the view at the time that the River Mersey started upstream at the confluence of the Goyt and the River Etherow.

History
The industry peaked in 1912 when it produced 8 billion yards of cloth. The Great War of 1914–1918 halted the supply of raw cotton, and the British government encouraged its colonies to build mills to spin and weave cotton. The war over, Lancashire never regained its markets. The independent mills were struggling. The Bank of England set up the Lancashire Cotton Corporation in 1929 to attempt to rationalise and save the industry. Palmer Mills, Stockport was one of 104 mills bought by the LCC. It was sold on and became Stockport Paper Mills. It was finally demolished about 2002.

Architecture
This was a five-storey brick built mill . There were ornamental lintels over the top storey lintels. The water tower at the north west corner and another tower at the northeast, there were corner turrets at the other two corners. The detached engine house survived the demolition of the mill. There was a subsidiary two-storey building to the east.

Power
Horizontal engine

Equipment
There were 167,000 spindles recorded in 1891, and 180,000 in 1920.
