I like to have a lot of black colored clothes in my wardrobe, but after a few washings, the clothes start fading out. This also happens with other darker colors, but black is worse. If anyone knows of a way to lock the color into clothes, please let me know.

40 hunters bag 32 deer in Montco
He was one of 40 hunters who helped cull an outsized herd of more than 300 deer that Pennsylvania Game Commission officials say wreaks havoc on the greenery at the suburban park off busy Germantown Pike in Montgomery County. The one-day hunt was particularly unusual because the park is surrounded by dense development, including Norristown State Hospital and Norristown Area High School. Police patrolled the perimeter and allowed only preregistered hunters onto the grounds. "We have probably 700 acres of property here," said Chris Heil, a state wildlife conservation officer who was patrolling the area. The ideal ratio is about seven deer per square mile, he said. Since the park is about a square mile, it is "way, way over the carrying capacity of this small area." The occasional pop of gunfire punctuated the air.

"The new relationship with local authorities in Scotland is being replicated by Labour in London and applauded by local authorities of all persuasions. "The only people who won't work constructively with local government are Labour's Scottish Parliament leadership. "It seems the isolation of Wendy Alexander is spreading - she is at odds with the UK Government, with Scottish Labour MPs and with Scotland's local authorities. "Let's hope the New Year brings a more constructive approach to Scotland's new politics from Ms Alexander and her parliamentary friends." But Andy Kerr, Labour's Shadow Secretary for Public Services, insisted the previous executive's policy had guaranteed funding for vital projects.
