July 2014 News
We're still working on our 2014 site revamp, moving to a fully responsive and PageSpeed optimized platform (up to speed of 97 destkop, 91 mobile for new pages as of 7/17/14!). During the remodeling please bear with us a bit longer, as some things are a bit messy at this point as we continue to suffer the dregs of the 2009/11 website. :-)
What's New:
As of March 1, we have retired our "Extended" level plans in favor of NEW "Premium" plans. New plans include promoted social media marketing campaign ($99 value) with click-tracking. We have also brought back the econo online post plan for $49, by popular request.

In the plan features, below, put mouse pointer over this icon for additional info and/or example about a service feature.
Press Release Writing since 1983
Trust our professional writing staff to do it right!
Since many small businesses don't have the budget to hire a professional public relations (PR) firm or have the expertise to compose their own news release in-house Send2Press offers press release writing services that are affordable and effectively target the message you wish to convey to the media. We can also edit/review an existing release you've written to polish and/or edit for length.
Send2Press is the only online press release service whose staff is entirely comprised of PR professionals, working journalists, and published authors. Our highly skilled and accredited team members are active members of professional trade groups including the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA), the Public Relations Association of Western North Carolina, and the National Writers' Union (NWU), among others.
How long does press release writing take?
We ask for two (2) to three (3) full working days to complete a full press release writing plan. We ask for at least one (1) full working day to perform a revision/rewrite service plan, and this can take longer if we're busy, or depending on how long it takes you to respond to queries from the editor. If trying to meet a specific deadline, please inquire in advance all writing services will always take at least one working day. Press release writing/editing service pricing does not include distribution of the press release to the media or online.
Full Press Release Writing: In Detail
Full Writing Service: $199
*May be ordered alone, or with a distribution plan.
After "Checkout" in our Secure Order Center, you fill out a simple information form with various questions related to what you want to announce as news, your dateline for release, and industry targets (i.e., "food" and "books" for a cookbook). We assign one of our writers based on content, then we call you for a brief (no more then 10 minutes) interview. We also provide an overview of the process with tips on what to look for and how the writing process works.
From this, a first "sketch" draft is composed and sent by email. Changes, corrections and additions can be made (all changes must be provided in writing), then a second draft is provided to refine the message. A polish draft can be done, if needed. Any additional corrections are made and then the final is provided. Release can be up to 800 words (400-600 typical), or will match the length of the news distribution plan ordered at same time (standard length of "Extended" distribution plans is 400 words).
Allow 2-3 working days (typical) for project completion, depending on your own availability for approvals.
Once the final is done, you may specify date/time for release to go out. We provide you with both a MS Word final version of your release for your own use. (Other formats can be provided on request like .rtf, .pdf, and plain text.)
You own the final press release and may publish, post, or disseminate it in any way you wish; you own all rights to the final work.

Revision/Rewrite Service: In Detail
One Draft: $89
Two Drafts: $169
(WR-2DRFT). *May only be ordered with distrib. plan.
If you've written your own press release but feel it might need one more polish — and/or if it's far longer than needed (or longer than the length limit of the news plan you've chosen) — one of our professional staff writers can rewrite/revise your release to make it more readable and more effective.
When you order a news distribution plan, also choose this add-on option: #WR-1DRFT ($89) or #WR-2DRFT ($169).
Then after "Checkout," submit your news release on our Information Form where you also specify who you're targeting the distribution to (MS Word or RTF format, no PDFs).
We then assign a staff writer to review and revise your release. Allow at least one full working day for completion.
A second editor on our staff will double-check it, then e-mail you "our version" of your news release with a checklist of things to look for like spelling of CEO name, site URLs, etc. If you order an "Extended" level distribution plan, the revision will be trimmed to the 400 word base length limit unless you have ordered the additional words add-on option at same time.
You may then edit further, and send us your "final, " or you can approve as-is. You may choose the distribution date/time once the draft is approved.
You own the final version.
(NOTE: can only be ordered at same time as a distribution plan. This option cannot be ordered alone.)
View example releases we've written
IMPORTANT NOTE: for the revision service you must provide a proper press release to start from; we cannot "convert" an article, promo flier, or Web page, into a press release with this service. If you don't have an actual press release to start from, you must use the "full writing service," and not the revision service.

Our "Standard" (formerly Silver) plans, have a base word length limit of 800 words.

FAQ: How fast can my news go out - what is the deadline?
We can normally get any project out within about two hours (sometimes longer on Mondays, or last couple days of the month) of when it's submitted during our normal business hours of 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. PST/PDT Mon.-Fri (California time). For projects to be scheduled for "early next morning" (such as 7 a.m. EST/EDT), we need to have the project in prior to the previous day close of business. We obviously cannot set-up projects to push to media prior to when we're open the next day, if you submit after we close the prior working day.
Click here to learn more about daily cutoff and deadlines
FAQ: What are the format and minimum requirements?
We generally follow Associated Press (A.P.) style, and so each release must have headline, dateline, body of release, and contact info so that media can follow up. We prefer MS Word file for release (or .rtf), and images can be any format; we cannot use PDFs, MS Works, or Apple Pages files. All releases must have proper "attribution" in headline or first paragraph (company or person name of WHO is announcing the news). See the following link for step-by-step examples and some issues to be aware of related to content and Google News. Sub-heads (secondary headlines or "decks" are not supported on most Web sites.

In 1911, Amy Archer-Gilligan was known to her neighbors in Windsor, Connecticut as "Sister Amy." Seemingly a kind, devoutly Christian woman, she took the frail and elderly into her home to live out the rest of their days. In reality, "Sister Amy" was a calculating murderer who poisoned her residents (and two husbands) with a brew of lemonade and arsenic. She is believed to have murdered sixty-six residents during the early twentieth century. M. William Phelps details the story of Amy's greed and deception, which led to her becoming America's most deadly female serial killer. This shocking true tale inspired the play and film Arsenic and Old Lace. Check catalog for availability.

The Independent
North Greenville University's volleyball program is on the rise, and third-year head coach Greg Mosely gives a lot of credit to junior Rebekah Mayes.
One of Mosely's first recruits, Mayes already owns several school records as a hitter as well as earning high praise for her versatility on the court.
"We got a great player in Rebekah," Mosely said of the former Rose Hill Christian School standout. "She may have been flying under the radar because she played at a small Christian school in Kentucky."
NGU, enrollment 2,400, is in Tigerville, S.C., just outside Greenville.
An outside hitter, Mayes broke the single-season record with 426 kills as a freshman. That year, the Crusaders posted their first winning season (19-17) in more than a decade since becoming a four-year university and Division II member.
Mayes added the school's single-game record last season by pounding out 23 kills. Midway through her junior season, Mayes took over the career mark. Her total stood at 1,137 after a Conference Carolinas win over King College of Bristol, Tenn., last week.
"Rebekah has been a mainstay for us on the outside," Mosely said. "We're a young team (only one senior) and have continued to improve our recruiting. We are hoping her senior year will be a breakout year for us."
Mayes, a team captain, is enjoying her key role as the Crusaders assemble a winning program.
"This season, we have a better team than the last three years," she said. "We brought in six freshmen that are already good. Next year, we should be better."
Currently, North Greenville is making a push to earn a spot in the Conference Carolinas tournament.
Mayes supplied 14 kills in the Crusaders' 3-1 win over King College. The night before, she contributed 17 digs as NGU swept Mount Olive College 3-0.
The two conference victories moved North Greenville into a tie for third in the West Division at 6-6. The top four teams from each of two divisions advance to the league tournament.
"Our goal is to make the conference tournament," Mosely said. "We are hoping to get a fifth or sixth seed."
Mayes continues to do her part. She's 5-foot-8, not tall for a collegiate hitter, but jumps well and consistently finds ways to rack up big kill numbers on a nightly basis.
"You come to college, the girls on the other side are 6-foot or 6-2," Mayes said. "You have to learn to play smarter. I have to use different angles, different shots and just be more creative. That's something I didn't have to do in high school."
A former All-Area Player of the Year at Rose Hill, Mayes said playing club volleyball for the Huntington-based River Cities Thunder did much to prepare her for the next level.
"College is a quicker game," she said. "It's something you have to adapt to. The coaches I had in club were really good."
The daughter of Rose Hill Baptist Church pastor Ronnie Mayes and wife Jena ranks among Conference Carolinas leaders with 3.51 kills per game, and her average is 3.67 in league play.
The old NGU career record of 1,047 kills belonged to Kaitlyn Pierce, who played alongside Mayes the past two seasons before graduating.
"Kaitlyn was a really good hitter, with a great work ethic," Mayes said. "She's someone I looked up to when I got here."
Along with attacking skills, Mayes helps the Crusaders all over the court. She averages better than three digs per game and leads the team in service aces.
"We all had to step up our defense this year," Mayes said. "The girls he brought in are as talented as anybody."
Mosely said Mayes came into the program and has been a leader on and off the court.
"Rebekah isn't a loud, boisterous player but will speak up and address things," Mosely said. "Her school and community back home can be very proud with her effort in building this program."
Mayes is majoring in Elementary Education.

I used the find your shade application to find this concealer. At first I thought it would be to dark (according to the pic) but i got what the app recommened. Worked perfectly! Glad I didnt try and choose myself or it would have been to light. Covers under eye circles great!!5
I love this concealer! was so excited when I got it in the mail and started playing right away. My daughter and some friends were over getting dressed to go out. One of her friends had some slight acne, and discoloration. So I pulled out the BOI-ING, and we started in. When we were done you should of seen the smile on her face! She kept looking at herself and saying how she felt so much better and confident going out now that her acne and discolorations had disapeared in front of her eyes. Her smile and happiness literally brought tears to my eyes5
I have tried numerous concealers to try and hid my Italian dark eye circles. They have all fallen short. I tried this one after reading the reviews here and on other sites. I found that this product covers the darkness and doesn't cake throughout the day! It is a new staple in my bag.5
I used this concealer for a particularly bad skin phase that lasted a couple years, and I don't think anyone else knew I had a bad skin phase! Even when I look through photos, I can't see the blotches because I was wearing Boi-ing :) I keep some on hand nowadays and it's good to know it'll do it's job. It doesn't cake up and has great coverage.5

Pauls Valley Democrat
Pauls Valley, Oklahoma — One of the absolute truths people of any nation can count on is a certain segment will always fear what the guys who don't like us will do if they get mad enough. Being the historically meddlesome kids we are, the United States has no shortage of enemies who would prefer we either did not exist or just leave them the heck alone. The original movie with this title was perfect for those of us old enough to at least remember paranoia from part of the cold war, but with that political climate slightly different, we needed someone to slap in there in order to justify a remake. Thankfully for those wishing for blockbuster gluttony, communism is still sort of out there and though fearing it has become no more than a corny pastime, it works at least well enough for a couple hours of giggles. "Red Dawn," while not 100 percent an impossible transition to reality, is nothing more than a harmless popcorn flick and will entertain with properly lowered expectations. Set in Spokane Washington, the story begins as US Marine Jed Eckhert (Chris Hemsworth) returns to his hometown after serving his latest tour overseas. Things aren't so good with the family who has not seen much of him since he bailed after his mother passed, the biggest rift apparent with his high school football star of a younger brother Matt Eckhert (Josh Peck). Unfortunately there's not much time to smoothly patch up the relationship as they quickly discover the country is being invaded and taken over by North Korea. As they attempt to evade their foreign captors, including the enemy leader Captain Cho (Will Yun Lee), they are forced to decide if their home is worth fighting for and what it means to sacrifice for the group as a whole. The pace is pretty decent even if there seems to be pretty big gaps in the story outside of the one skirmish after another and as long as you don't want to know what's going on with the bigger picture it's not too hard to follow. However, for all the information one has to juggle with a project of this magnitude, it is at least worth checking out for those desperate for a classic action flick. I wouldn't recommend this so much for the youngest kids, but those teenage and up might actually find it tame set up next to the latest Call of Duty or "Halo 4." The characters are decently chosen for their respective age groups and even the heroes one may not like are easy enough to root for by the time it is over. I suppose the only thing that would have made it even better is if Thor had shown up and hammered the bad guys to their makers. As a result, I'd say "Red Dawn" deserves three out of five Jong-Uns.

Katherine Jackson Is Safe At Home With Family After Being Reported As "Missing" By Nephew
Posted on Sun Jul 22, 2012 01:30 PM PDT
Jackson family matriarch Katherine Jackson is safe at home, after a missing persons report was filed on Saturday night when family members were unable to reach her, CNN reports.
Apparently the 82-year-old had been MIA for the past week, and the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department said in a statement on Sunday:
- "Katherine Jackson is reportedly with family members. Late Saturday night, a different family member reported that he was unable to speak to her and is concerned for her well-being. Deputies are continuing to make efforts to reach her and ask that she contact the Malibu/Lost Hills Sheriff's Station."
Michael's 14-year-old daughter Paris Jackson Tweeted her concern for her grandmother early Sunday morning, expressing: "Yes, my grandmother is missing. I haven't spoken with her in a week [and] I want her home now."
Jackson's lawyer, Sandra Ribera, told CNN Katherine flew from Calabasas, Calif. to Albuquerque, New Mexico July 15 to attend a Jackson brothers concert with her eldest daughter, Rebbie, but her family "haven't been able to reach her for almost a week."
"They are told she's unavailable . . . I'm concerned that she's not safe," said Ribera, adding that Katherine "has never gone 24 hours without talking to her kids."
In other news, a doctor with ties to Dr. Conrad Murray reportedly tricked Katherine into believing he was treating her on behalf of her regular physician in the moments before she disappeared.
"Last weekend Katherine Jackson was getting ready to leave for a much anticipated road trip in the RV her son Michael bought for her to watch her sons perform," Katherine's lawyer revealed to Celebuzz.
"Prior to her departure, a doctor was brought to her home and represented that he had been sent from the office of her longtime physician. Based on this representation, Mrs. Jackson agreed to meet with the doctor who subsequently ordered her to fly rather than drive to her sons' concerts. Mrs. Jackson followed what she believed to be her doctor's instructions," she said, adding: "Katherine Jackson's longtime physician recently confirmed that his office did not send a doctor to Mrs. Jackson's home last weekend before she left on her trip. It has further been discovered that the doctor that Katherine Jackson last saw has been publicly reprimanded by the California Medical Board for fraudulent activities and has ties to Dr. Conrad Murray."
It's been a dramatic week for the Jackson family, who publicly criticized the executors of the late Michael's will, John Branca and John McClain, who they claim have been taking advantage of their mother and defrauding the family.

MARANA, Ariz. Steve Stricker, once a strong supporter of banning the stroke used for long putters, shed some insight into the PGA Tour's position Tuesday when he said he would not be surprised to see the tour ignore the United States Golf Association if the ban is adopted.
The PGA Tour is drafting a response to the USGA's proposal to outlaw any stroke that is anchored to the body, which is aimed at belly putters and broom-handle putters. Three of the past five major champions used a belly putter.
PGA Tour Commissioner Tim Finchem had a conference call with his 16-member Player Advisory Council on Monday, followed by a call with the policy board.
Stricker, regarded among the best putters in golf, said he could see the tour adopting a local rule that would allow anchored putters.
"I don't know if that's going to happen; don't even know if the USGA is going to go ahead with the rule change," said Stricker, one of the players on the policy board. "But I can see the tour adopting the rule saying that it's OK for players to use a long putter. And we have probably a couple other rules out here on our hard card that are different from USGA rules, too. And that wouldn't be any different."
A hard card is what sometimes is referred to as "conditions of competition." For example, the tour often will allow players to lift, clean and replace the golf ball in the fairway during wet conditions. The USGA does not allow for such preferred lies.
Tiger Woods also went from a strong position in favor of the ban to a more balanced view that keeps him out of the debate. "I understand if we go either way," he said. "We put in local rules every week."
The USGA and Royal & Ancient Golf Club announced the proposed rule Nov. 28, and then allowed for a 90-day comment period because of the sensitive nature of long putters. The USGA sets the rules for the United States and Mexico, while the R&A is in charge of golf rules for the rest of the world.
The comment period is over after the Match Play Championship. The proposed rule, if adopted, would not be effective until 2016.
For all the chatter, the debate effectively won't get started until the USGA and R&A announce whether they will adopt the new rule. Then it would be up to the PGA Tour to decide which direction it wants to go.
For the tour to move away from the USGA on such a matter could lead to chaos at a time when USGA President Glen Nager is among those preaching unification. It could mean that a player could use a belly putter on the PGA Tour, but he would not be able to compete in at least two majors (U.S. Open and British Open) with the same putter.
Also unknown is the response from the European Tour. Ernie Els, who won the British Open last summer using a belly putter, is a member of both tours. If the PGA Tour does not go along with the proposed rule, there could be a case where Els can use a belly putter at the Memorial but not at the Dubai Classic.
"That is a concern," Stricker said.
Joe Ogilvie, a member of the Player Advisory Council, described Monday's call with Finchem as "very brief" and a chance for players to give the commissioner their thoughts.
"It wasn't unanimous, but I would say a vast majority were not in favor of the ban," Ogilvie said.
Jim Furyk, another player on the board, told Golfweek magazine that he disagrees with the rule, though going away from the USGA would open "a whole new can of worms in the world of golf."
"Every sport that I can think of has different sets of rules for different abilities and different styles, and I realize that's not what the USGA wants to do," Furyk said.
Stricker said things he's learned over the last few months have changed his view. He still doesn't like anchored putters but doesn't like the idea of a rule not after the long putters have been allowed for 40 years.
Match Play weather Woods had a one-liner ready when asked about the weather forecast that includes the possibility of snow at the Match Play Championship, saying: "We won't be able to work on our suntans."
Play was set to open today at Dove Mountain in Marana with temperatures in the low 40s and a predicted high of 47. Strong wind was expected in the afternoon with showers that could change from rain to snow on the cactus-lined High Sonoran Desert course.

The Herald Bulletin
ANDERSON, Ind. —
You might have seen them determinedly walking the streets of Anderson, or riding their bicycles — two clean-cut young men wearing suits and ties with nicely pressed white shirts.
That air of calm determination they display is exactly what it seems. These two are on a mission.
Elder Jacob Bighorse and Elder Troy Gajdos are missionaries of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They are two of about 63,000 young people serving as LDS missionaries worldwide. They're here in Madison County to serve and to win souls. It's part of a two-year stint each one of the men is serving in the Midwest mission field.
"Monday through Sunday they are full-time service. For two years they are here to serve the Lord and offer the Gospel of Christ," said Kyle Morey, director of public affairs for the 400-member Anderson LDS church that has embraced the missionaries during their 6- to 12-week stay here. There are 650 LDS members in total in Madison County, with two congregations, in Anderson and Elwood.
Morey, who is CEO of Anderson's Chamber of Commerce, knows the drill. He served his own LDS mission in southern France in 1995-97. He said the mission starts with three weeks of intense training.
"They come out with the knowledge of the Gospel and how to teach it," said Morey.
Elder Bighorse, 21, hails from Flagstaff, Arizona. Elders are men 18 years or older who have been ordained to teach and perform other LDS functions. Bighorse landed in Anderson about a month ago, 15 months into his mission.
He served in Hoosier places such as Bedford, Plymouth, and Indianapolis prior to his arrival here. Bighorse said that he took up the mission with gratitude.
"I can bring the happiness (God) has brought me to other people. ... This is what God wanted me to do."
Elder Troy Gajdos, 20, from Alpine, Utah, has been in Anderson for two months, 14 months into his mission time. He has also served in Muncie and Beech Grove.
"You have a lot of fun — seeing the change in people. When you see that change in someone — seeing the happiness," said Gajdos.
That's not to say it's an easy task for the youthful duo.
Both young men will have little contact with their families while serving their missions. Although they both have several siblings and parents, they're only allowed to call home twice a year — on Mother's Day and Christmas. They can email family on Mondays.
There's no dating. The two share one cellphone. They mostly walk or ride bicycles to local destinations. Each are allowed a budget of $140 a month to cover food and miscellaneous expenses.
"Being on a budget is what's tough, making sure we live frugally, cooking for myself," Bighorse said. "Even though it's simple stuff, I still mess it up." Luckily, his cooking skills are only put to the test for breakfast and lunch, as members of the Anderson LDS congregation arrange dinners.
For Gajdos, the tough part is "overcoming natural man desires" like sleeping late, riding a dirt bike or going to the movies.
For all that, no one's complaining.
"As we really dedicate ourselves — we come to love the mission," said Gajdos.
"It goes by fast when you don't think about it," said Bighorse. And neither one has much time to think about it. They spend every day busily engaging members of the community and of the church. They serve any which way they can – anything from helping someone move, doing lawn work for an elderly couple, teaching, cooking and serving up lunch at The Christian Center, to working with people to help them overcome addictions.
The two are enjoying their stay in Anderson.
"I think it's a wonderful place. ... There's a lot of humble people here, so abiding," said Gajdos. "I like the city — the classic city feel, the history."
"It's very historic. I definitely love the courthouse," agreed Bighorse. "I definitely love the people, they're very humble. They do have a strong belief in God and Jesus Christ."
At the end of their two-year missions, the men will return to their home turf. Bighorse plans to attend school to study architecture. "I love to build things."
Gajdos wants to go to Utah State University for mechanical engineering. Restoring classic cars is high on his list of priorities.
For now, though, both of the young missionaries share firm convictions about their choice to go on a mission.
"It's been the best decision," said Gajdos.

ESPN analyst Mel Kiper liked the Bills' draft. He gave it a grade of B. Only nine teams got a higher grade. He says fourth-round pick Chris Hairston is the one guy who could make the Bills' draft an A-plus.
On why Kiper gave the Bills a B: "It wasn't so much the quarterback, it was the offensive line. You can only do so much. The offensive line saw a big drop off after the top group. So that's why I think the key guy is going to be Chris Hairston. Chris Hairston has a lot of ability. He has a lot of potential and ability. I think he's not yet where he needs to be. But any time you get a kid who's 6-6 1-4, 325 pounds and is a pretty good athlete and is very, very strong in the upper body. I mean he has incredibly long arms. This kid's a talent. I think the outside pass rushers, how much trouble they give him, he's got to get quicker out of his stance do a better job of maintaining his frame between the defensive end and the quarterback and all that. But that will come with coaching. The offensive line coach there is going to be critical to Hairston because he needs some coahcing. The offensive line coach has to develop this kid. If they do they could have a very good pick there."

Sun Tran and Teamsters Local 104 have officially reached a two-year agreement, and union membership ratified the contract on Sunday with a vote of 250 to 76. Acceptance of this new contract ends a seven-day walkout and restores regularly scheduled bus service to the Tucson region on Monday.
Sun Tran GM Katrina Heineking and Teamsters 104 Principal Executive Officer Andy Marshall each expressed appreciation and relief that vital transportation services will return in full service. Heineking and Marshall also extended sincere gratitude to the customers, employees and the general public for their patience during the strike.
Under the terms of the offer, the Teamsters bargaining unit employees will receive no wage increases, but will continue to have their health and welfare costs completely covered over the two-year term. The contract includes new language that requires Sun Tran and union representatives to re-enter negotiations in the event that bargaining unit layoffs become necessary. The Teamsters would have the option of terminating the labor agreement at that point if an alternate agreement cannot be reached within five days.
The cost to the City of Tucson for the increases in health and welfare expenses is approximately $1.2 million over the two-year contract.
Sun Tran is operated by Professional Transit Management Ltd. (PTM) under a contract with the City of Tucson. The Teamsters Local 104 represents approximately 525 employees, including drivers, mechanics, service island attendants and others.

B8-1932-4545-100 CircuitMedic BGA Rework Stencil
CircuitMedic Stencils are self-sticking solder paste stencils. These laser cut, polymer stencils use a full-release, residue-free adhesive similar to sticky notes. The self-sticking adhesive on the bottom of the stencil seals around each BGA pad to ensure that solder paste will not bleed under the stencil when the paste is applied. Disposable CircuitMedic Stencils are easy to use and will not leave any residue on the board surface.
If you currently use metal stencils you need to fixture them or tape them in position to hold them in place. Metal stencils can warp, and if the circuit board has undulations in the board surface, the metal stencil will not sit flat. Since there is no gasket-like seal, solder paste can easily bleed under metal stencils when paste is applied with a squeegee. Also solder paste can spill out over the sides of flat stencils contaminating the circuit board surface.

Presidential candidate Romney's recent comments show he is out of touch with reality in the lives of the working class of the U.S. I don't consider myself, nor most of the people from my part of the country, deadbeats expecting handouts from the federal government.
I am an 83-year-old disabled Korean War veteran, and my wife and I have many health problems. We are able to get by and get health care and medicines with the help of our Social Security (not the maximum), the VA allowance and medicines, Medicare, and our small retirements from years of hard work.
Many others we know are not as fortunate. Most of the people we know have worked hard all their lives, often like me, starting as even pre-teenagers. I picked berries and sold them, and caught grasshoppers for fishermen before I was 10. I mowed lawns all over town with a push mower at 12. I painted houses and all kinds of other jobs while a teenager. I joined the National Guard in high school, was mobilized and sent to Korea during that war. Afterwards I used the GI Bill and worked to support a family while getting degrees in college. I worked hard until I was able to retire on Social Security and a small retirement from my company.
My wife and most people we know have similar stories. The hard part is seeing many older people, especially women, simply not getting enough even for medicines and health care. Until the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) disparagingly called "Obamacare," too many people were barred from this care because of "pre-existing conditions." Being ill and missing work for a few days got them fired from their usually minimum-wage jobs. In reading PPACA carefully one finds other things it corrects even though it may not be perfect. I consider one other important condition it did eliminate. That is it eliminated the additional charge that insurance companies selling private health plans were charging for women, about $100 extra for being a woman.

Government Employees Get No Respect?
- By Dana Grinshpan
- March 28, 2013
- Leave a comment
In the midst of the largest study Government Executive has ever conducted, on the subject of federal employee engagement, some interesting findings have been emerging. More than 21,000 federal employees have responded so far. Here's what they've told us:
- About half say they receive the recognition they deserve for a job well done.
- Almost three-fourths say that their colleagues respect their opinions.
- Less than one-third say they hang out with their colleagues outside of work.
These results are not final yet. We still need to meet certain goals to generalize the results to all federal employees. If you're one of the people who have already participated in the survey, thank you. If you're not, we'd greatly appreciate your help. It only takes five minutes.

By SHELLEY TERRY - firstname.lastname@example.com
Star Beacon
ASHTABULA — A police officer, who was fired for insubordination in February 2011, will be back in Municipal Court Jan. 29 for his second pretrial.
Former Patrolman Robert Wolford, 41, appeared for a pretrial late last month, but after his attorney, Thomas M. Hanculak of Cleveland, and City Solicitor Michael Franklin met behind closed doors, they asked the court to schedule a second pretrial in 45 days to allow Franklin more time for "supplemental discovery."
Municipal Court Judge Albert Camplese granted the request.
The second pretrial is set for 1:45 p.m. Jan. 29, court officials said.
Wolford is charged with falsification and obstructing official business, court records show.
Police reports show Wolford was shot in the arm with his own gun in August 2010, but later, city officials said he refused to take a polygraph test about the incident.
"The account of the shooting has been determined to be false," Franklin said.
Consequently, Wolford has been charged with two counts of falsification and two counts of obstructing official business, Municipal Court records show. He pleaded not guilty to all counts and is free on a $4,500 personal bond, court records show.
After Wolford was terminated by the city, he took the matter to arbitration and the arbitrator ruled that, while the city had the right to require a polygraph test, and while the city stipulated in writing the results would not be used in any criminal proceedings, the form the lie detector examiner at Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation asked Wolford to sign created an ambiguity and justified him in refusing to take the examination.
The city's position was that under prevailing Ohio law, a lie detector test is never admissible in a criminal proceeding unless the prosecutor and the defense attorney stipulate in advance that it will be admissible, so any ambiguity in the form was immaterial and irrelevant.
The arbitrator was selected by the police union and the city.
Franklin said the city is appealing the ruling in Common Pleas Court.
On Aug. 21, 2010, Wolford said he was shot at 3:52 a.m. near West 38th Street along a section of railroad tracks while chasing two fleeing suspects, police reports said.
At the time, Wolford said he suspected the men were burglars and a struggle with one of the suspects resulted in his gun discharging, according to police reports.
In a Feb. 2, 2011 letter, Police Chief Robert Stell and former Lt. John Koski warned Wolford about alleged non compliance with police department orders and procedures, including not honoring subpoenas and not showing up for a grand jury.
Wolford is no longer a city employee.

SAN ANSELMO, CA - NOVEMBER 16: An announcement of The Beatles coming to iTunes appears on the Apple website November 16, 2010 in San Anselmo, California. Apple has struck a deal with the record label EMI and the Beatles' company Apple Corps to sell digital downloads of the legendary rock band's music on iTunes. (Photo Illustration by Justin Sullivan/Getty Images)
When Apple computers and Apple records finally ended their legal fight, allowing Beatles songs to flow through iTunes, well ... it was the biggest no-brainer in the history of no-brainers.
The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed that more than 5 million Beatles songs were purchased in only two months. That includes 1 million full albums that were consumed, too.
All 13 studio albums are available at $12.99 each. Songs are priced at $1.29.
The most popular song? "Here Comes the Sun" from Abbey Road -- coincidentally, the most popular album downloaded, too.

Sarah Lane once again fills in the cruising Leo Laporte, and talks iPhone 5s rumors, the future of the iOS Home screen (Springboard), HTC and Apple's patent deal, and more, with Andy Ihnatko, Jason Snell, and yours truly.
My pick of the week was Clear for Mac.

@Rene: First off, I have to say that Rene Richie's addition to Macbreak Weekly has reinvigorated my interest in the show. Leo Laporte became an android apologist years ago, Andy Inhatko has joined Leo and gets more and more critical of Apple every show, and Alex Lindsay is barely on the show anymore. This is an Apple show, and Rene has balanced things out so that it isn't just a bash apple hour. I hope you are a permanent addition to the show!
That said, I couldn't help wonder what you meant when you coyly said "there are big changes coming to Springboard...I'll leave it at that." Do you know something or am I reading too deeply into this?

A Diamond Bar man was arrested today after being indicted Wednesday by a federal grand jury on charges of conspiracy, bribery, and making false statements to investigating agents with the Department of Homeland Security.
Sam Herbert Allen, 51, works as a U.S. Customs and Border Protection supervisory officer. He faces charges of accepting bribes to allow others, including his former wife, so sneak goods into the United States so that they wouldn't have to pay duties and taxes, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.
According to the five-count indictment, Allen served as a supervisory officer assigned to oversee the examination and release of cargo entering the United States. After he was transferred to other duties within CBP, Allen convinced his ex-wife to operate an importing business that would avoid paying duties on shipments coming from the People's Republic of China.
The importing business - technically a "foreign trade zone" - would falsely claim that the shipments from China were not imported, but were instead immediately sent to Mexico. The indictment alleges that Allen promised to make the shipments appear to CBP as if they had been exported to Mexico, this in exchange for bribe payments of $2,000 per shipment.
During the course the scheme, which operated from at least September 2009 until March 2010, Allen allegedly received more than $100,000 in bribe payments.
The indictment alleges that the scheme caused the United States to suffer a loss of at least $781,632.59 in unpaid customs duties and taxes.
"When public servants break the law, it leaves behind an indelible stain," said United States Attorney André Birotte Jr. "Here, Officer Allen violated the public trust by allegedly using his position in a government agency to line his pockets and deprive the United States of legitimate taxes owed in the normal course of business. The indictment against Allen vindicates the interests of the United States and should also provide relief to citizens who expect the government to operate without corruption."
The indictment goes on to allege that Allen encouraged his ex-wife to lie - and that Allen himself lied - to federal law enforcement personnel investigating and prosecuting this scheme. Allen is also charged with lying to investigators when he denied discussing a separate scheme to smuggle cocaine into the United States from Mexico.
An indictment contains allegations that a defendant has committed crimes. Every defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty.
Allen is expected to be arraigned on the indictment today in United States District Court in Los Angeles.
If he is convicted of the five counts in the indictment, Allen would face a statutory maximum penalty of 35 years in federal prison.
The investigation into Allen was conducted by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) Office of Professional Responsibility, ICE's Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), and U.S. Customs and Border Protection Office of Internal Affairs. Allen's ex-wife, Wei Lai, was charged with crimes related to her role in the smuggling scheme in July 2011. She has pleaded not guilty to the charges and is scheduled to go to trial with another defendant on February 19, 2013.

Progress staff reports
Jacksonville Daily Progress
A major accident in south Bullard Monday afternoon sent four people to the hospital and closed lanesof traffic in both directions for several hours.
About 12:30 p.m., a trash truck from D S Disposal and an East Texas Support Services minivan collided at the intersection of Highway 69 and Cherokee CR 3801, pinning the occupants in the minivan.

- Health Notes
The Lowdown on Energy DrinksThe Lowdown on Energy DrinksThe amount of caffeine in energy drinks isn't regulated as it is in sodasEnergy drinks and energy shots suddenly seem to be everywhere. While you probably don't want to rely on an energy drink in place of a good night's sleep, these beverages may provide the occasional boost you need to enhance your workout, improve your mental clarity, or carry you through that midafternoon energy slump.
What's in them?
Here are some of the most common energy drink ingredients and their effects:
A stimulant that acts on the central nervous system to increase alertness, caffiene also enhances exercise performance when consumed before a workout, and reduces post-exercise muscle pain when ingested after. The caffeine in energy drinks may be synthetically derived or it may come from green tea extract, raw green coffee beans, or guarana. Energy drinks vary widely in their caffeine content, with estimates ranging from about 150 mg to 500 mg per serving. For reference, a cup of regular coffee contains about 100 mg of caffeine.
Drawbacks: Caffeine can become addictive and excessive use may cause anxiety, irritability, heart palpitations, insomnia, vomiting, seizures, and even death. In some cases, it can bring on new problems or make existing conditions worse, like panic disorder and high blood pressure.
This evergreen vine from the Amazon basin contains caffeine and caffeine-related compounds purported to enhance physical stamina and mental function. It doesn't seem to possess any other therapeutically useful constituents. Adding guarana to energy drinks is essentially another way to increase the caffeine content of the beverages.
Drawbacks: Guarana may share the same risk of toxicity as caffeine. Since it's not widely recognized as a caffeine source, some people may not realize how much they are ingesting.
Sugar-as sucrose, glucose, fructose, high fructose corn syrup, or agave-is a main ingredient in many popular energy drinks. Sugar provides an immediate spike in energy, followed by an inevitable crash some hours later. Some energy drinks contain upwards of 62 grams of sugar per serving. It's recommended that women consume no more than 24 grams of added sugar per day. Men shouldn't have more than 36 grams.
Drawbacks: Sugar-sweetened beverages can contribute to overweight, obesity, and dental cavities. People who drink a lot of sweetened soda are at increased for heart disease and diabetes, so it follows that excessive energy drinks consumption carries the same risk.
B vitamins
B vitamins, including vitamin B3, B6, and B12, are popular additions to many energy drinks, due to their role in energy metabolism and red blood cell formation in the body. For people with low levels of these nutrients from dietary lack or absorption problems, B vitamins may help improve energy but, for nearly everyone else, the mega doses of these vitamins found in energy drinks won't boost energy or brain or exercise performance.
Drawbacks: Taking more than 500 mg per day of vitamin B6 can cause neurological problems. Large doses of vitamin B3 (niacin) can cause skin flushing, reactivation of healed peptic ulcers, and blood sugar fluctuations in people with diabetes.
A common energy drink ingredient, ginseng is prized for its ability to fight fatigue and stress, which might make it a good addition to energy drinks designed for these purposes. However, early trials suggesting it might aid exercise performance have not been replicated.
Drawbacks: Ginseng is generally safe for most people, but taking it with caffeine can lead to overstimulation and gastrointestinal upset. The most common side effect is insomnia, but other reactions have been reported, including allergy, breast tenderness in women, liver damage, menstrual problems, and headache. People with autoimmune diseases such as lupus and those with uncontrolled high blood pressure shouldn't use ginseng.
An amino acid found in meat and fish, the body also makes it from other amino acids, so deficiencies are rare. Taurine concentrates in heart muscle and helps regulate the heartbeat. It has been reported to enhance endurance exercise performance and increase fat burning, and is often added to energy drinks for these effects.
Drawbacks: Taurine is generally well-tolerated but one serious allergic reaction has been reported in the literature.
Ginkgo biloba
Ginkgo is the oldest living species of tree on the planet. Studies have shown that extracts of the leaf may increase circulation to the brain and act as a powerful antioxidant. It is sometimes added to energy drinks to help improve memory and brain function.
Drawbacks: Ginkgo may cause headache or stomach upset and may affect bleeding time in some people.
Do they really work?
It was once thought that the sugars in energy drinks provided fuel to exercising muscles, enhancing exercise performance. But some studies have pointed out that merely swishing and spitting a mouthful of energy drink can boost exercise performance. So is it the body's anticipation of more sugar that drives this improvement in function?
Researchers from the University of Birmingham in the UK showed that it's not really that, either, as artificially sweetened energy drinks don't seem to have the same effect. Instead, it looks like there are some as-yet unidentified receptors in the mouth that signal the brain directly to enhance exercise performance. "The results suggest that the improvement in exercise performance that is observed when carbohydrate is present in the mouth may be due to the activation of brain regions believed to be involved in reward and motor control," explained Dr. Ed Chambers in an article in the Journal of Physiology.
A 2012 review of popular energy drink ingredients found only caffeine contributes to physical or cognitive performance enhancement. Another study found that some individual ingredients may have a benefit but combination products haven't been studied sufficiently.
Whether it's the caffeine, sugar, other ingredients, or some combination of these, many endurance athletes (like marathon runners, distance swimmers, road bike racers, and triathletes) swear by energy drinks to improve their performance during events. "Says long distance runner, Todd Mros in Portland, Oregon, "In a marathon I use an energy drink with electrolytes, complex sugars, and caffeine. It doesn't fully replenish you but it can give just that little extra help at the end of a race. "
A word of caution
The amount of caffeine in energy drinks isn't regulated as it is in sodas, and the amount listed on the label may or may not be the actual amount in the drink. Energy drinks and alcohol can form a particularly dangerous mix, worsening side effects such as insomnia, increased heart rate, anxiety, and high blood pressure. They can also team up to increase risk-taking, such as drunk driving and risky sexual behavior, and make people feel less drunk than they actually are, potentially leading to more drinking.
As stated by the International Society of Sports Nutrition, "Indiscriminant use of energy drinks or energy shots, especially if more than one serving per day is consumed, may lead to adverse events and harmful side effects." The group warned that people with diabetes or cardiovascular, metabolic, neurologic, hepatic (liver), or renal (kidney) disease who are taking medications that may be affected by high glycemic foods, caffeine or other stimulants should avoid use of these products unless approved by their doctor.
Energize naturally
Before reaching for a liquid energy shot the next time you feel zapped, try these tips first.
Kimberly Beauchamp, ND, received her doctoral degree from Bastyr University, the nation's premier academic institution for science-based natural medicine. She co-founded South County Naturopaths in Wakefield, RI, where she practiced whole family care with an emphasis on nutritional counseling, herbal medicine, detoxification, and food allergy identification and treatment. Her blog, Eat Happy, helps take the drama out of healthy eating with real food recipes and nutrition news that you can use. Dr. Beauchamp is a regular contributor to Healthnotes Newswire.
- Get moving. Exercise is a terrific energy- and mood-booster. Studies have shown aerobic exercise enhances brain function and information processing.
- Balance your bites. Eat protein throughout the day to keep your blood sugar levels-and your energy-stable. If you're going to eat something high in carbs, eat some fat with it to help keep blood sugar levels from rising too high (preventing the subsequent sugar crash) and to make you feel fuller, longer.
- Stay hydrated. One study showed that women who were dehydrated experienced depressed mood, increased perception of task difficulty, headache, and difficulty concentrating. What if a glass of water could revive your energy as well as an energy drink?
- Get your sleep. Overcoming daytime fatigue could be as simple as trading in that online chat time for an extra hour of sleep. Most adults should get at least eight hours of sleep per night.

Comments about LIVING ESSENTIALS Chaser® 5-Hour Energy™:
I work at a bakery which means getting up at 3am! When I first started (before I was used to the schedule), I drank a 5 hr energy right before going into work. Less than a half hour later I felt like a million bucks: Energy, happy mood, and felt strong. It literally works for exactly 5 hours and works great. No crash. No jitters like when I drink coffee. Now I take it some days when I need a pick up and it's exactly what I need and more. If you're still unsure, JUST TRY IT.

8 Questions from the Community
Can this piece be used with an existing delta showerhead or does it need its own separate installation in the shower wall?
A. Thank you for your question. The Delta 56613 Classic Single Function Hand Shower can be installed into the existing shower arm with a shower arm diverter. You will need to put up some type of wall mount or a diverter that has a place to hold the hand shower. This particular model comes with a shower mount which would attach directly to a shower arm so I strongly recommending going with another product. What you'd probably be happier with would be a hand shower that comes with a standard wall mount & buying a diverter so you can utilize your existing shower arm. Hope this helps!
Can I get a shorter chrome hose for this model? Something around 3-4 feet would be o.k.
Is the angle of the showerhead adjustable on Delta 56613 or Delta 54613? What is difference in the two models?
Can the showerhead on delta 56613 swivel for different angle? If not, do you have a model that does swivel?
Does the Delta 56613 swivel only up and down or sideways as well? Also does the spray turn off only on the shower head or is there a separate feature on the arm?
can i get a longer hose with this unit
A. Thank you for your question. That is the longest hose that Delta offers, if you are just getting chrome though you should be able to get another brand such as Kohler or Hansgrohe who make 72" long hoses. If you need further assistance I would be more than happy to help. Feel free to email me back contact me at 1.800.375.3403 ext. 762. Thanks!
do i need arm diverter for 54613
what does ABS stand for behind material?
A. ABS stands for acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, a plastic compound used in several household appliances. Because metal over time breaks down, and faucet companies are offering "life time" warranty, moving parts and parts that are in direct contact with water are using ABS material. Keep in mind they are under a lifetime warranty.
