We love summer–and so does pretty much every single pop star. Summer is sexy; there’s bikinis, beach side bronzing, pool parties, and lots of clothing optional fun. Summer is sultry; everyone is feeling hot and looking for a good time. Summer is sublime; the sun doesn’t go down until, like, 8pm and you can get up to a lot of fun/bad things. That’s the premise of most of these sexy summer-themed videos. Fun, bad things in the sun! Let us know if we missed out on your favorite summer themed video!

The Amarillo Animal Management & Welfare Department concentrates its efforts on reducing nuisances and dangers associated with stray animals, health-related hazards of animals, and insuring proper care of pets. These efforts focus on education programs, training of personnel, patrolling the City, and responding to concerned citizens. Amarillo Animal Management & Welfare Department personnel are subject to extensive professional training and college level courses on animals and animal care, investigations, management, public relations and criminal justice.

Amarillo Shelter Assesment Complete

Amarillo, TX – An assessment of Amarillo’s animal shelter facility and operations was recently completed by Target Zero Institute (TZI), the third-party retained by the City of Amarillo earlier this summer. In addition to complimenting the City Council and administration for its attention to change and improvement, as well as its long-standing partnership with the Panhandle Humane Society, the assessment provides recommendations in more than 11 areas, ranging from facility improvements to public/private partnerships.
The assessment, led by a veterinarian specializing in shelter medicine, evaluated the shelter against best practices and standards of care in animal shelters established by the Association of Shelter Veterinarians. The assessment includes a series of priority recommendations that should receive the most urgent attention.

Areas of highest priority improvement include securing shelter management software, operation of the shelter as a single entity involving both partners, and improved feline housing.

“A review with outside expertise yielded valuable insights into our top priorities,” says Scott McDonald, interim director of Animal Management & Welfare. “While some of the recommendations may take quite some time to implement, others, such as changing out the food dispensers, are things we are already acting on.”

The assessment complements other ongoing efforts at enhancing the operations of Amarillo’s Department of Animal Management & Welfare, including continued administrative and operations improvements, policy enhancements, and the search for new, permanent leadership.

“The assessment provides us with a great tool as we continue to make improvements at the shelter and in our operations to ensure we continue to protect the public’s health and provide quality care for the animals in our possession,” says Assistant City Manager Bob Cowell.

The assessment was prepared in consultation with local partners, stakeholders and interested parties and will continue to be reviewed by staff to prioritize actions. The assessment and its recommendations will be presented to the Animal Management & Welfare Board at their September 15 meeting and to Amarillo City Council at their September 16 meeting. The full assessment and its recommendations may be viewed on the City’s website at

10 Billion Android Market Downloads and Counting

[This post is by Eric Chu, Android Developer Ecosystem. —Dirk Dougherty]

One billion is a pretty big number by any measurement. However, when it’s describing the speed at which something is growing, it’s simply amazing. This past weekend, thanks to Android users around the world, Android Market exceeded 10 billion app downloads—with a growth rate of one billion app downloads per month. We can’t wait to see where this accelerating growth takes us in 2012.

To celebrate this milestone, we partnered with some of the Android developers who contributed to this milestone to make a bunch of great Android apps available at an amazing price. Starting today for the next 10 days, we’ll have a new set of awesome apps available each day for only 10 cents each. Today, we are starting with Asphalt 6 HD, Color & Draw for Kids, Endomondo Sports Tracker Pro, Fieldrunners HD, Great Little War Game, Minecraft, Paper Camera, Sketchbook Mobile, Soundhound Infinity and Swiftkey X.

Of course, none of these apps would have existed if it weren’t for the developers who created them. Every day, these developers continue to push the limits on what’s possible and delight us in the process. For that, we thank them.

Please join us in this 10-day celebration and check in every day to see what new apps our developer partners are making available on Android Market—for only a dime.

What is the exact difference between user and eng binaries for a phone (mobile device)? These are two of the build variants. I want to know the exact difference between them.

share|improve this question
What is this user and eng binaries you are talking about? Do you have a link to the site where we could download them? –  geffchang Mar 4 '13 at 12:45
I would like to know the difference between the two build_flavor's,i.e. eng and user build in android. –  user29492 Mar 5 '13 at 3:50

1 Answer 1

"Eng" is short for engineering AKA developer build. Those builds have various logging facilities enabled which you do not see on regular "production" builds. Normally you do not want to flash such builds on to your phone.

share|improve this answer
Thanks but want to know the things in detail,what all logging facilities are enabled which you are talking about engineering AKA developer build.Can you please enlighten me. –  user29492 Mar 5 '13 at 3:54
the exact configuration of the "eng" build depends on the manufacturer/model. this is just a build used internally by manufacturer while developing a product. it even can change for the same product. –  user23414 Mar 5 '13 at 4:24

    DROID 3 is definitely a good replacement. I love mine so much. Probably upgrading to DROID 4 when it comes out.

    Its gna have the same cons as the razr u understand that correct? Locked boot loader built in battery ect
  3. imnotmikal

    imnotmikal Well-Known Member Developer

    Locked bootloader = Doesn't really matter, it still gets root and roms. I'm running ICS on my locked bootloader phone right now.

    Non-removable battery = Doesn't matter either. A power cycle is easily done with a button combination that bypasses the software entirely. It works even when the entire phone is locked up

    Well my ally is currently activated, but tomorrow i will be deactivating it as soon as my newly ordered droid razr maxx comes in the mail from verizon. I will say imma miss this community, as well as the great roms and things that have made this phone very fun and made rooting clear to me as to what it was. To all the devs, thanks for the great rom support because it was fun flashing many many roms. I will be testing velocity 1.2.2 beta 18 as my last rom with this phone activated, but i am pretty sure i will be open to test further roms or what not with this once im done. Ill check around every so often and leave feedback. Thanks.

    And a general question to anyone, unless i should post elsewhere, but will roms for the razr work on the razr maxx? And all the time? Thanks again.
  5. imnotmikal

    imnotmikal Well-Known Member Developer

    Yep, all RAZR roms work on the MAXX. They're the same exact phone, just one has a larger battery. They run the same software versions.

But so thatll be very convenient so for everything i can go do the razr thread. Thanks

    I have mine as does my wife. I've rooted with Velocity. I am about to root the wife's. Great phone. The keyboard comes in handy with or without Swype and/or Speech to text. I don't see a reasonable replacement for the price yet. We got ours free for a two year agreement with Verizon over a year ago.

    I've upgraded a line of service to a Moto D4. Been using it for about 5 days so far.

    It's not perfect, but neither was the Ally. Overall I think its a very comparable replacement. I will probably upgrade the other lines of service soon. I prefer to remain on a single handset at a time...

    mine is still activated.upgrade coming in july.just got a new battery for it and running velocity 1.2.....its been a great first android.been lookin at the htc rezound or a droid bionic but still have some time to hoping i can keep my old alltel unlimited plan.

    I deactivated my Ally on Friday and switched the the Razr Maxx! I had a good run with the Ally, but I wanted to do more with my phone, and I wasn't able to due to the Ally's limitations. So, the day I could upgrade, I did.
  15. swc2001

    I came from the Ally to the Bionic as well. Where did you get cm9? I would really like to have it. Is it fully functional? What update do you have to be on? Thanks in advance.

    I still have two Ally phones active on my Verizon account; one is being used by my wife. There are two more I know of being used by in-laws. The day the warranty expired on all four of them is the day they were loaded with the Velocity ROM. Will keep them activated as long as they keep working.

    i switched to a moto x a few weeks ago. but right after i did i found a work around for cm7 on the ally. loaded it up just to see what its like and i must say ive thought about changing back just because im not too happy about having a locked boot loader. thank god for 2nd int roms. droid x is running cm9. gotta love ics

    2 here. Due in July. Thought I want an actual keyboard, but now that I am kind of getting used to the touchscreen, doesn't seem to mather much. Was thinking about keeping it, but with all the "SD card removed" issue lately, guess it is time to change.

    x-amp Well-Known Member

    upgrade to the LG spectrum at the beginning of February. Didn't have much a choice, Ally front screen blacked out and inside was already gone. It was a nicked ribbon :-(.
    New phones a beast though.

    Deactivated my Ally Monday and went to the Bionic with a extended battery. Yes the Razr and Razr Maxx are the latest and greatest but the Bionic is right behind them and CHEAP!
    I seriously considered the Razr, but cheap is the main reason I went with Ally in the first place, and the Bionic is going to be a good enough replacement for the next two years.

    i guess im a collector lol. i got three still activated on my accounts. not due for an upgrade until June. so little time to go i actually decided to root and install a custom ROM. was hard since a lot of the links are now dead and there's not much support. got enough ROMs to keep me occupied until then. Some of the newer ROMS make a world of difference! :D
  24. jhcii

    I still have mine. Still using it daily and I think I'm stuck with it till Sept, but not sure. I also have one that's not activated and just using it as a "mini tablet".......
  25. jeb_hoge

    jeb_hoge Active Member

    Still using mine, although today it got its first real damage when I dropped onto some sidewalk concrete. Tiny crack in the screen just in the black by the Search icon. I'm thinking that come June, when my contract truly ends, we're going to revamp our entire mobile phone philosophy and switch over to prepaid. I'll get a good unlocked something or other from and put a $30/mo T-Mobile plan on it, and when I do, I'll have to decide what to do with the Ally.

Plot Synopsis

In the year 1563 or something like that (I don't think that's actually when he lived) Oda Nobunaga is leading his unholy demon armies across Japan to take it over. He has destroyed the three ninja clans: Kasumi, Hyuga, and Hagakure. Possessing one of the three mystic swords of sorcery, Ayame leaves to find the people who possess the other two swords: Sakon from Hyuga and Ryoga from Hagakure. Together they go off to destroy Oda Nobunaga and avenge their clans. However, things heat up when the demons attempt to merge the underworld with the human world... Can our brave heroes rescue us?

Reader Review

Wrath of the Ninja: the Yotoden movie was the first thing I ever saw where Oda Nobunaga was the bad guy. Ever since, there have been plenty of things like that, and even more anime about ninjas who go off to fight demons. If you're a die hard fan of Ninja Scroll, you might want to see this. The story is definitely not original. It borrows too much from anime tradition. Myself, I'm not a big fan of superviolent blood infested anime. On another story note, the subtitle "The Yotoden Movie" comes from the fact that this is based off a three part OAV called Yotoden: Chronicle of the Warlord Period. In a move almost as stupid as those made by American TV networks trying to edit Hokuto no Ken for five year olds, they hacked the story portions out of the OAV, slapped it on a DVD, and called it Wrath of the Ninja.

The story may not be original, but at least the Yotoden OAV had one. This hacked DVD has the parts of the movie that involved both fountains of blood and story, but anything to do with the story that didn't involve fountains of blood was hacked. Most of the story goes completely unexplained. To make things worse, the idiots stopped producing subtitled VHS OAV with the complete story. Unfortunately, this was the first US Manga Corps release I saw, and subsequent release's terrible dubbing did nothing to make me think better of them. Which brings me to the sound. The subtitled version has okay acting and the voices fit the characters quite well, especially the oboro ninja's freakish high voices. The three main characters also had good voices in the sub. The dub was terrible. Voices were flat and emotionless, oftentimes not fitting the characters at all. The oboro ninja's great freakish high voices from the sub were changed to men who sounded like they were begging for money on the streets. The background music fit the movie, but most of it didn't catch my ear at all. The ending song sounds like it should be in a ball room or something. The translation from sub to dub was fairly faithful. I only speak two words of Japanese, though I'd like to learn more, so I can't speak for the translation from Japanese to English.

The animation was actually pretty good IMO, even though it was made circa 1989. The textures look realistic. Backgrounds were rather dull, but everything moving was quite fluidly and realistically animated. Even blood was well animated. The characters are a little questionable. Ayame and Sakon have definite personalities, and even a little romance (Ayame is a girl, in case ya didn't know. Ayame is a girl's name) but the problem lies in the other characters. Ryoga in particular has no personality whatsoever, and every side character was around long enough to say a few words and then they were dead. So many people died that after a while I got confused whether I was watching an anime or some kind of demented documentary about how they kill cows in slaughterhouses. In the end, it seemed that everyone within the entire country of Japan was dead except Ayame. The character designs were pretty good, with everyone having a unique look. The oboro ninja especially were well designed. In one scene, it looks like one of the oboro ninja is gearing up for a tentacle rape scene like in some hentai anime. Luckily, this is only suggested, not shown.

I really can't think of anything more to say. If you want extreme amounts of blood not hindered by a story, I'd say get it. If you like a dash of story and a little less blood, get something like Cyber City Oedo 808 or something.

Have something to say about this anime? Join our newly-resurrected forums and speak your mind.

Notes and Trivia

The movie is a theatrical version of the three-episode OAV series Sengoku Kitan Youtouden (戦国奇譚 妖刀伝; Mysterious Story of a Civil War - Legend of the Mysterious Blade). The OAVs were cut together and shortened by about 40 minutes to make a theatrical movie. Note that this was not done by US Manga Corps, but for release in Japan.

The real-life Oda Nobunaga rose from a relatively lowly position to conquer most of Japan between about 1560 and 1582, when he was killed in a coup. He is famed for his military tactics, and frequently shows up in anime and video games, often as an exaggerated villain.

US DVD Review

Was originally available on a bilingual DVD as only the movie, which was recently re-released in an "anime 101" edition. Also available in a 2-disc "Collector's Edition" that includes both the movie version and the 3-episode OAV series it's composed of. The Collector's Edition, in addition to Japanese and English dialogue and English subtitles, features historical and cultural notes and an art gallery.

Parental Guide

Appropriately rated 16-up by USM.

Violence: 4 - Enough blood for a whole war.

Nudity: 1 - A few panty shots.

Sex/Mature Themes: 2 - Suggested tentacle rape; nothing shown.

Language: 1 - Nothing of note.

Available in North America from US Manga Corps on bilingual DVD, both alone in an "anime 101" re-release and as part of a "Collector's Edition" 2-disc set that also includes the OAV series that it's made from. Was previously available on bilingual DVD and dubbed VHS.

Played Lately: World of Warcraft

  • I'm splitting this post in two, because it's already way too long. Look for more World of Warcraft blogging (imagine that!) in a day or two. On with the news.

  • I joined my guild, Chaotic, for our guild-first kill of Nalorakk, the bear boss of Zul'Aman. We wiped six times trying to take him down and had to reclear trash once in the middle of that. In spite of all that, the seventh try saw us take him down pretty handily. A lot of things have to go just right to get through that fight, so it won't be an easy feat to repeat. But it was a great moment to revel in. It's not often you get to enjoy real raid progression. If only we could have taken down a second boss that night.

  • This is the place where I would normally say that I'm looking forward to future raid progression. Only it turns out that the guild blew up over the weekend and was disbanded. It turns out the guild leader thought the guild had hit a brick wall on progression and that the best thing to do was to set everyone free. At least that's the happy face on what happened. I got whispers from both factions of the fight immediately upon logging in Sunday. The former guild leader told me I was a shoe in to be invited to the raiding guild he just joined. I was also quickly invited to join a guild by my two good friends in their unfortunately named guild "Show Us Your Crits." /sigh. I went with my friends because that is the real reason I play the game, but the whole business has soured me on playing my mage.

  • On the Alliance side, my shadow priest finally won the Stranglethorn Vale Fishing Extravaganza after four weeks of trying. I was literally shaking in my chair in anticipation as I counted up toward 40 Tastyfish. A quick hearth to Booty Bay and a frantic run to the finish line later and I was announced the winner, with my brand new Arcanite Fishing Pole in hand. It is pretty silly how worked up I can get over a video games, especially a weak simulation of fishing. But the competitiveness and need to excel hit me in weird places. I may not be good at much, but by goodness, I can win an online fishing tournament.

  • I've also been playing my paladin a lot more. It feels a little strange since I'd pretty much given up on the poor girl for newer, flashier characters. But Mesia, my friend from the days when I was exclusively Alliance, convinced me to join his guild and so we could hang out more. I'm on a two week trial with The Venerated and not entirely sure it's a good idea. But with all the guild drama for my mage, this might just be the in-game home I need.

  1. HEY!!! My freind and I also play World FO warcraft!!! What server is you horde on? We are also horde! Check out my blog, or, wow chars are Mazzaroth 33 tauren Druid and Malthazar 19 undead Rogue twink

  2. I also have a comic book collection, my favorite is a 1964 Daredevil where he gets captured by Dr. Doom. Have you ever read Legend of The Drizzt or Usagi Yojimbo>?

Abatacept for People with Active Rheumatoid Arthritis FREE

[+] Article, Author, and Disclosure Information

The summary below is from the full report titled “Effects of Abatacept in Patients with Methotrexate-Resistant Active Rheumatoid Arthritis. A Randomized Trial.” It is in the 20 June 2006 issue of Annals of Internal Medicine (volume 144, pages 865-876). The authors are J.M. Kremer, H.K. Genant, L.W. Moreland, A.S. Russell, P. Emery, C. Abud-Mendoza, J. Szechinski, T. Li, Z. Ge, J.-C. Becker, and R. Westhovens.

Ann Intern Med. 2006;144(12):I-18. doi:10.7326/0003-4819-144-12-200606200-00001
Text Size: A A A

What is the problem and what is known about it so far?

Rheumatoid arthritis is joint pain and stiffness caused by an immune reaction to joint tissue linings. It damages the joints and can even destroy them. Rheumatoid arthritis usually affects the hands, feet, knees, shoulders, and wrists, but it can develop in any joint. There is no cure, but treatment improves signs and symptoms and slows joint damage. Treatment is with drugs that alter the body's immune reactions. Abatacept is a new drug that targets specific components of the immune system. Abatacept inhibits the specific immune cells that cause rheumatoid arthritis and has been shown to improve symptoms in people with rheumatoid arthritis. It has not been directly compared with drugs that are commonly used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, such as methotrexate.

Why did the researchers do this particular study?

To compare the ability of abatacept and methotrexate to improve symptoms and slow joint damage in people with rheumatoid arthritis.

Who was studied?

652 adults with painful rheumatoid arthritis despite taking methotrexate for at least 3 months.

How was the study done?

The researchers assessed participants' symptoms and signs, ability to perform everyday activities, and quality of life before starting the study. They also looked at disease activity by measuring joint damage in x-rays. The researchers then randomly assigned participants to receive abatacept or placebo for 1 year. Abatacept was given intravenously twice in the first month, then once a month for 11 more months. Participants in both groups continued taking methotrexate. The researchers repeated their measurements every month to assess improvement.

What did the researchers find?

Participants taking abatacept improved more in all measures than participants taking placebo. Their symptoms and signs, everyday activities, and quality of life improved. Joint damage also progressed at half the rate. Participants in the 2 groups experienced similar adverse events. More participants taking abatacept experienced side effects, and they tended to develop infections more often. However, more participants taking placebo left the study prematurely because their symptoms and signs of rheumatoid arthritis did not improve.

What were the limitations of the study?

The study included participants who had had rheumatoid arthritis for more than a year and whose condition had not improved with methotrexate treatment. The findings may not apply to people with newer disease or to those who responded to methotrexate. The study lasted only a year. The benefits and risks of abatacept for longer periods require study.

What are the implications of the study?

Abatacept seems to be safe and effective for people with rheumatoid arthritis who do not respond to methotrexate treatment. The benefits and risks of taking abatacept for more than a year require more study. The role of the drug for different people at different stages of rheumatoid arthritis and its benefits and risks compared with other rheumatoid arthritis drugs also require further study.

Penicillamine therapy was discontinued for a period of 200 days in a patient with Wilson's disease. Copper reaccumulated in the body at the rate of about 0.43 mg/day. Urinary copper remained normal for 180 days and then increased rapidly. Simultaneously with the onset of hypercupriuria serum copper, ceruloplasmin, and erythrocyte copper increased, and hemolytic anemia associated with the formation of Heinz bodies on exposure to acetylphenylhydrazine developed. Addition of copper to normal erythrocytes led to increased autohemolysis, thermolability of hemoglobin, increased sensitivity to acetylphenylhydrazine, decreased erythrocyte glutathione, decreased glutathione stability, and inhibition of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and glutathione reductase. The hemolytic anemia was due to increased oxidative stress on the erythrocytes as a consequence of the accumulation of copper within the cells.

Leif Elias

When Elias entered her mother's business, she brought in more clothing. It's aimed at younger women, with form-fitting skirts and pants in contrast to one-size-fits-all skirts and ponchos. Though most items still come from the developing world, some are made in America, and recently she had a few pocketbooks for sale from China (though she generally doesn't like buying Chinese products because she can't easily monitor production conditions there). Last summer, she opened a new store in Lansing, called La Bodega, patterned after the warehouse. She'd like to open other stores.

Carved wooden Buddhas displayed on shelves and the sweet smells of jasmine and incense heighten Orchid Lane's exotic quality. But many customers shop for practical items. Elias welcomes the holiday season, because some of her best- sellers are winter accessories-wool, fleece-lined hats and mittens made in Nepal. A close second: reversible silk skirts made from recycled Indian saris.

A fiercely independent only child and Huron High grad, Elias attended college at Vanderbilt University, where she majored in math and computer science engineering. The school's old- fashioned traditions startled her.

Pestana Convento do Carmo

The Pestana Convento do Carmo, originally built in 1586 as a convent, has now been carefully restored into the first luxury hotel in Brazil. There is a peacefulness to the corridors, a safety behind the stone walls. The outdoor living spaces, with their mix of antiques and art, made you never want to leave this timeless atmosphere. Each of the rooms, or apartments as they call them, have the original window seats that look over the center courtyard of the property, a view of history, nature and modern comfort.

Hotel Villa Bahia

EH9A9643 It comes as no surprise a city as magical as Salvador da Bahia would have a boutique hotel just as enchanting in the heart of the old city. Two colonial homes, one from the 17th century and the other from the 18th, have been carefully renovated into the 17 room experience of Hotel Villa Bahia with two garden courtyards, plunge pool, panoramic terrace and one of the best restaurants I have ever been to. Each room unique in decor, each detail as romantic as the last. If I were a novelist, it is here where I would stay to write as I felt nothing but inspiration between these walls….

Meet Christina Graci

Today is the last installment of our inspiring women series with Pandora Jewelry. From San Francisco with Courtney Klein to Charleston with Helen Rice, this has been an incredible experience for me, being personally inspired by these amazing women all over the country.  I feel so lucky that our roles as women have become so open to any of our hearts’ desires and I have truly loved seeing what these women have chosen to do with their lives. What has been truly meaningful as well is to see the choices each of these women make within the Pandora Essence Collection, selecting charms that are chic and stylish, but also representative of their core tenets. Speaking to them about what beliefs they hold dear has told me so much about each woman, and I have treasured the friendships made through this lovely collection. And so here we are now with the beautiful Christina Graci

Christina is a native of New Orleans, Louisiana. She studied in Baton Rouge and abroad in Denmark, worked for two major interior design firms in New York City, and then came back to New Orleans to live and work. What makes this the city to be in?

“New Orleans has a special place in my heart.  The city is so rich in history and culture that you don’t find everywhere.  It’s such a diverse city that is so full of life.  The people here are also truly unique.  Never a dull moment in this city to say the least!”

With her brother Chad, Christina runs Graci Interiors, an interior design firm known for having exquisite and classic tastes, mixing vintage and modern styles with ease. Christina said her passion for interior design showed before she even knew it could be a job: “Growing up my mother and I would re-decorate my bedroom yearly.  We would get new draperies, bedding, change the wall color, etc.  It was so much fun doing that with her that I guess it just grew on me.  It wasn’t until I went off to college that I had the epiphany that I could do that for a living!”

Christina describes her personal style as “classic traditional but fresh and modern.  Keeping with traditional interiors is important to me but bringing it into our era and how we live today makes is so interesting and fun.”

When I first heard this, I knew Christina and Pandora Jewelry made the perfect pair…classic jewelry with a fresh and modern perspective on the inspiring woman who wears it!

Christina on what her Pandora Essence Charms mean to her ~

Hope and Confidence – I chose these because they primarily have a lot of meaning to me in reference to my career.  I’ve had to have a lot of hope in my career along the way in order to keep moving forward.  Also, in my career you’ve got to have confidence in yourself and in your work to be successful.
Health – A healthy lifestyle is so important to me.  Being healthy is living life to the fullest for me – mind, body, and soul.
LoyaltyStability, and Love – These all relate to me personally in my relationships with friends and family.  I feel as though all three are interwoven.  You can’t have one without the other and vice versa.

The Singular

I love traveling the world, seeing all the places I dreamed of as a child. All my life I have wanted to adventure down to South America, but nothing could have prepared me for the natural beauty I was to find in Chile’s Patagonia. Way down south, the furthest I have ever been in the world, lies The Singular Patagonia, a stunning piece of living history.

Recently restored as a luxury hotel, the complex had previously been a cold storage plant built in the early twentieth century. The owners, descendants of the families who built their lives in this area, recognized the importance of the structure and made the decision to keep it alive. Now the Singular boasts not only one of the most sustainable five-star hotels in Chile, but also a private collection of machines, engines, and other artifacts from the original factory.

It was so fascinating to walk the grounds and see how the hotel and factory merged together, how wood and steel shipped over from England many years ago became something brand new. Come along on our tour, see what can be found #onlyinsouthamerica

Citrine Jewelry: Fall Gemstones Part 2

Posted By Beverly A. Guy On October 7, 2013 @ 9:06 pm In Gemstone Jewelry,Gemstone Rings | No Comments

Criss-Cross Pave Diamond and Citrine Halo RingLooking for a piece with a golden glow that captures the beauty of an autumn sunset or one of the vivid hues of the falling leaves? Look no further than citrine jewelry! With their saturated golden sparkle, these pieces seem to glow from within, making them ideal picks for fall.

The warm dazzle of citrine is due to the presence of iron, but it would be easy to believe that this bold color comes courtesy of captured sunshine. The rich yellow glitter of this stone is reflected in its name: derived from the French word for lemon, “citrine” is a fitting term for this vibrant gem.

The warm, lively sparkle of citrine makes pieces that feature it excellent picks for the time of year when the days grow short and we miss the sunshine. This bright glitter is enhanced when this gem is accented by diamonds, a combination that contrasts the yellow hue of citrine with colorless dazzle.

Trillion-Cut Citrine and Diamond RingThis striking pairing is gorgeously demonstrated in the Criss-Cross Pave Diamond and Citrine Halo Ring, a unique twist on a timeless style. The focal point of this eye-catching style is an 8mm round citrine, and it’s surrounded by a frame of glittering accent diamonds. Two slender bands embellished with additional pave diamonds criss-cross directly beneath the center stone and at the back of the wearer’s finger, creating a look that calls to mind golden rays radiating from the autumn sun.

For a look that’s modern and that takes full advantage of citrine’s daring good looks, try the Trillion-Cut Citrine and Diamond Ring. A 6mm trillion-cut citrine, a triangular-shaped gemstone with slightly rounded sides, is the star of this ring, and it’s accented in asymmetrical fashion with four diamonds, three on the left and one on the right. Set in gleaming 14K white gold, this is a contemporary look that perfectly combines warm glimmer and cool shine.

Victorian Floral Oval Citrine Ring in .925 Sterling SilverIf a look that’s inspired by the past is more your taste, the Victorian Floral Oval Citrine Ring in .925 Sterling Silver is an excellent pick! This outgoing yet feminine style showcases an oval-shaped citrine, 10mm high and 8mm wide, in a meticulously-carved setting that calls to mind the patterns of a more romantic era. With elegantly carved flowers and leaves, this ring has a beauty that’s distinctly ladylike yet never stuffy.

Whether on their own or paired with a citrine ring, Citrine Stud Earrings in 14K White Gold are a lovely way to add a pop of golden glimmer to your look. This pairs comes with one of three sizes of gemstones: 6mm (1.70 carats total), 7mm (2.50 carats total) or 8mm (4.00 carats total), allowing you to choose just how much warm sparkle you want to wear. You also have your choice of push backs or screw backs, so you can customize a pair that suits your style.

Citrine Stud Earrings, 14K White GoldAs a semiprecious gemstone, citrine is not only an eye-catching pick; it’s also a relatively affordable one! Citrine rings, pendants and earrings are both daring and wallet-friendly, and they’re pieces with style that you’ll want to wear autumn after autumn.

Blount County May Consider Alcohol Vote

Oneonta, AL – Blount County voters may get the opportunity to vote on whether to legalize liquor and alcohol sales. A petition is moving through the county seeking signatures from registered voters. Supporters must get signatures from at least 25 percent of the voters from the last election to place the issue on a ballot. That's about four-thousand people. Blount County Commissioners R-C Smith and Tom Ryan say voters should decide the issue. Smith says the county is losing hundreds of thousands of dollars because alcohol and liquor sales are prohibited. He says allowing alcohol sales would put money into dwindling county coffers.

Justin Bieber and girlfriend Selena Gomez standing on stage during the 2011 MuchMusic Video Awards in Toronto on June 19, 2011. / Darren Calabrese, AP

NEW YORK (AP) - Justin Bieber is no longer Selena Gomez's 'boyfriend,' a source confirms to the Associated Press.

The split happened last week, and distance and their busy schedules were a contributing factor.

Eighteen-year-old Bieber is touring to promote his latest album, while 20-year-old Gomez is filming a Wizards of Waverly Place reunion for Disney Channel called The Wizards Return: Alex versus Alex, that will air next year.

The pair first stepped up publicly in February 2011 at the Vanity Fair Oscar party.

E! News was the first to report the split.

Bieber seems to be doing OK, at least publicly. On the red carpet of Wednesday's Victoria's Secret fashion show he said, "I'd rather be here than anywhere in the world."

The New Bedford Harbor Superfund site encompasses 18,000 acres of urban estuary stretching from the upper Acushnet River into Buzzards Bay.  In 2009, EPA announced that $25-35 million in new Recovery Act funding would be used to accelerate the hazardous waste clean-up already underway at the site.  The swift allocation of Recovery Act funds has helped spur new jobs and economic opportunities in Massachusetts and is accelerating the pace of the harbor cleanup that was scheduled to take almost four decades.  The Recovery Act funding could more than triple the amount of PCB-contaminated sediment removed compared to recent years. The progress anticipated this year will significantly expedite the timetable to return a clean harbor back to the community.  More than 100,000 people, individuals and families, live in the area and will directly benefit from the project acceleration.  This project has created more than 80 jobs.

Welcoming Development in a Cleaned Up Industrial Park - South Plainfield, N.J. - $30 million

The Cornell Dubilier Electronics site in South Plainfield, New Jersey received $30 million in Recovery Act funding to accelerate the cleanup of contaminated soil and debris.  During its years of operation at the site, Cornell Dubilier Electronics, Inc. manufactured electronic parts and components, including capacitors. The soil is contaminated with semi-volatile organic compounds, metals, and PCBs and is being treated on-site using low temperature thermal desorption or transported off-site for disposal. Addressing the contaminated soils will allow redevelopment to begin at the industrial park, which is part of a Borough of South Plainfield approved redevelopment plan. Approximately 68 jobs have been created and has resulted in more than 41,000 tons of soil being treated. Projected completion is expected in Spring 2011.
