Starting today, I am going to try and lay off the D60 and try restricting myself to the iPhone's camera for somewhile. I may still upload pictures I took earlier, but my focus is to try and push this camera to it's limits.

It's a bad time to be in Puerto Rico... an explosive time. An extremely unpopular governor who promised change and won by a landslide has followed through on his change. Unfortunately he didn't say what change he intended, and instead has had to lay off tens of thousands of government employees or face a government shutdown. This combined with the increasingly socially-conservative/puritanical policies enacted be his legislative cohorts have caused this (among countless other protests).
I'll stay neutral when my camera is near me, lest I end up with a broken camera. However, when the camera is put away, I wear my heart on my sleeve.
While I see the point behind the layoffs, I feel the government was too rash in executing them. I feel not enough thought was put into the self-sufficiency of the affected agencies, I feel not enough thought was put into privatization of some government services, and I feel no thought was put into doing this less than 2 months before the holidays.
I digress though. This isn't the forum to rant.

Taken 3/4/12 (Make up for 3/5/12)
On Monday (Day 65), I had a terrible case of allergies. Why? Because of this little guy. My cat. I can honestly say that before I got him I was never allergic to cats. Actually, that statement is still somewhat true being that the only cat I seem to be allergic to is him. But that's ok, I'll live. I do feel however that I am posting way too many pictures of him for this project. I try to take pictures of my two dogs, but one for some strange reason doesn't like cameras (she runs away every time you point one at her), and the other just moves around way too much. Scotty, my cat, is the only one that stays still long enough for me to grab a good shot. I think I'm going to try to lay off of the cat pics for a while though. I need some variety in this thing.

After the ‘90s, there were about 45,000 coal miners working in the Jiu Valley. That is no longer the case today. As it is no longer profitable to extract coal, the European Commission recently proposed to closed most of them down and lay off the miners.

Pictures taken at the Deva Stadium during the Chester City v Darlington match in the Vanarama National League North.
Sigh. Sorry there are so few pictures but Darlo were crap and I got a bit angry.
The game finished n a 3-1 home win via debut hat trick for Akwasi Asante, who will never have an easier afternoon. This weas despite the Seals playing with 10 mne for nearly an hour
His first came on 27 minutes when he won the ball on the nearside touchline, laid it off and then charged into the Quakers' box where he got on the end of a pinpoint cross and powered a header beyond Maddison in the Darlo goal.
The second came on 49 minutes. Mahon, who ran tirelessly all afternoon, began the move after robbing a darlo defender before passing to the Dutchman who turned brilliantly leaving a defender in his wake and placing a lovely finish past on the onrushing Maddison.
Somehow Darlo managed to score on 56 minutes with Darlington's first real foray forward producing an unlikely goal as Josef Wheately picked up a lose ball 25 yards before placing a powerful shot past a stunned Grant Shenton.
However on on 69 minutes Dudley ran at the Darlo defence before laying off to Asante who cut inside and lashed a right foot curling shot beyond Maddison to complete his hat trick with the best of the lot
Want to know the best thing I took out of the day: The stadium is known to be on the border between England and Wales as the border runs along the rear of the east stand (the main stand). The address of the ground is officially classed as England, due to the main entrance of the building being in England

Once employing over 400 workers, in December 2008 and laying off and closing, now sits uninhabited. The locals called it Elkin Furniture. It was owned by Vaughan Bassett in Galax Va but is now vanished. Probably a result of imports and free trade agreements.

Originally named Cima by the Spanish traders who passed through in the late 1700s, the Sante Fe Railroad Company started a town here in 1878 as a railroad stop and a place to house workers. In 1906, the Colorado Fuel and Iron Company(CF&I) took over the location and built the town.
CF&I excavated a mine shaft and coal was the subject of the mine. The mine produced over 600 tons of coal per day and by the time the mine closed, over 11 million tons of coal had been extracted. The coal would then be loaded up onto a train and shipped up to Pueblo to be processed.
At it's peak in the 1920s, Morley had over 600 residents, a post office, a school and a church(the St. Aloysius). By 1949, CF&I had begun considering closing the mine, as it had dropped to less than half it's peak production and operating costs were getting too strenuous. They began laying off workers in 1950, and by 1955, only about two dozen remained. The mine was finally closed in 1956. CF&I then demolished all the buildings in the town except for the St. Aloysius church, which is still standing in fair condition today.
Many, many, many foundations can be found today. The townsite is enourmous and gives a great sense of what it was like to live in the town. An absolutely amazing place.
Here's me on a cold Friday morning waiting for the bus to take us into town. It's my lay off day so I'm going to pay some bills and no doubt end up going for a coffee. It is really cold and they say this weekend and into next week we are going to get some really cold weather.
Cultivator Teeth are durable powder coated teeth feature a narrow throat and a wide foot for thorough cultivation under the soil surface. One tooth can be used on the toolbar for laying off rows or as many as five for more intense cultivation. Another excellent feature is that they will work on Planet Jr. Wheel Hoe.
Sweeps can be used for weeding and shallow cultivation. These are easily mounted on the tool bar for working between rows. The 8” sweep blades can be adjusted on the tool bar for working with different width rows. The blades are designed to cultivate close to the plant without damaging the roots. The durable steel blades and cast iron are powder coated.

Yesterday was the trial of three union leaders charged with instigating an attack on a German consular official during a German - Greek conference on local authority governance. The trial was once again postponed till 28th November after key prosecution witnesses failed to turn up.
The charges are widely seen by Greek trade unions and political activist as an attempt to intimidate local authority employees who have have been waging a campaign of resistance against the first in a series of planned lay offs in town and county councils across Greece. The cuts in jobs and salaries are being demanded by the country's creditors in return for the release of the next tranche of bailout funds.
However, whether Athens will be able to impose its will on recalcitrant public sector workers is moot as just 25 of the Greece's 340 councils have submitted the names of employees to the laid off. In addition over 200 town and county council halls are currently under occupation.

Marion, AL (Perry County)
Founded on March 4, 1822, the city of Marion was originally known as Muckle's Ridge. By 1817, Michael Muckle had cleared an acre of land from a dense forest and constructed a cabin on the present site of the Perry County Jail (structure #79). Muckle later sold his improvements to Anderson West, then sheriff of Perry County. At the suggestion of Joseph Evans, a South Carolinian, the county commissioners, charged with finding a suitable location for the county seat of Perry County, changed the name of the town from Muckle's Ridge to Marion, honoring General Francis Marion, the "Swamp Fox" of Revolutionary War fame. After laying off the courthouse square and the surveying of streets, on May 22,1822, lots were sold at public auction but due to heavy rains, prices for prime lots remained quite low. The early sale of lots included those adjacent to the courthouse square. (1)
