Therapeutic Change
Determining the primary mechanisms contributing to therapeutic change is a central topic within marriage and family therapy (MFT), and psychotherapy literature. The MFT concept of therapeutic change is the transition from a pathological to a functional family system through the therapist's interventions. Research studies show virtually every type of psychotherapy, including MFT, has proven to be more effective than no treatment. Efficacy research demonstrates that although MFT works, we know little about why it is effective.
In the current era of accountability, an adequate explanation of the process and mechanisms that contribute to the complex process of change is particularly relevant. A main component of accountability in MFT practice is unification within the field on the fundamental question of how the therapy MFTs provide leads to client change. Determining a common set of factors to explain successful therapy would be a major breakthrough; serving to simplify and focus practice, training and research. Identifying common ingredients to explain the complexity of MFT practice holds potential to unify competing theoretical schools.

Dead or Alive 5 Ultimate director hints at possible next-gen console port
- Posted June 18th, 2013 at 17:42 EDT by Ernest Lin
Last week at E3 2013, I had the opportunity to speak with Dead or Alive 5 director Yohei Shimbori of Team Ninja about the upcoming iteration of his game, DOA5 Ultimate. When I asked him about a port of the game to the upcoming next-generation consoles, he hinted at such a possibility.
"So looking at the specs and the hardware capabilities, we're highly interested in that possibility," said Shimbori. "But at this point, we haven't done any work on it."
Would you like to see a port or a completely new DOA on your PS4? Let us know in the comments and keep it right here on PSU for breaking news.

2013 Mutual Theme
A notice dated August 21, 2012, announced the 2013 Mutual theme: "Stand ye in holy places, and be not moved, until the day of the Lord come; for behold, it cometh quickly, saith the Lord" (Doctrine and Covenants 87:8). Leaders are encouraged to use the theme to enrich Mutual opening exercises, as a topic for sacrament meeting talks by youth, and to provide focus for youth activities such as camp, youth conference, and devotionals. It may also be used to focus youth on temple worthiness, temple attendance, and family history. The annual DVD, Strength of Youth Media 2013: Stand Ye in Holy Places, will be available online at the end of the year. These brief video segments may be used to supplement quorum meetings, classes, youth conference, and other youth activities throughout the year. Additional resource material in support of the theme will be available in the New Era and Liahona magazines and on LDS.org at the beginning of 2013.

I had two ideas for birthday gifts for young women's next year. Seeing as the theme is stand in holy places both are temple centered. One being temple recommend holders with the nearest temple pictured on it, and second is a temple passport (more expensive but very fun). (Idea shared by Lacie Jensen / ga12062012)

We are thinking of ordering the Temple Ensign and giving that to them along with a page with the testimony our Presidency. (Idea by Jill Brown)
We were a year ahead of the theme. Our birthday gift for 2012 has been two pairs of fun socks with a very cute tag that said "Stand in Holy Places" and included a quote from Pres. Monson's 2011 General Conference talk by the same name. Between the girls we currently have and the new Beehives we have gained this year, we needed socks for 40. I found some online and bought 84 pair for $60. (Idea shared by Kathie Cude)
We bought some Bath and Body works lotions and body wash when they were on clearance and putting that with the handkerchief with something like "Keep your hands and heart clean and pure so you can attend the temple". (Idea by Beth Adams)
We discussed birthday gifts in our meeting last week and one of our counselors said that her favorite gift from when she was in YW was a card that had a girl drawn on it and a hankerchief that comes through a slit to look like it is the girl's dress. It is meant to be a keepsake for the YW to take to the temple when the time comes and a reminder to keep that a goal. (Idea shared by Jamie)

Beverly writes, "I was looking at all the cute ideas you have for 2013. While watching the temple video you have posted I thought it would be awesome if the girls had a temple calendar! This would have to be a Christmas gift OR a very early New Beginnings gift. My thought also was to incorporate photo's of the girls parents at the temple or ward members. I have only 4 girls in my ward so this will have to include leaders, ward members and family members photos. Not sure of the cost of having it printed at Kinko's or Staples. But homemade calendars work just as well. I also thought sayings on each month which I lifted from the song and other ideas... starting off with Stand Ye in Holy Places, Keep your eye on the temple, keep your hands and heart clean and pure to enter the temple, Keep inspired by the temple spires, live your life higher, keep your heart on the temple, Be worth of the temple blessings, I'm going there someday, I love to see the temple, families are forever, live a CTR life (current temple recommend), repeat Stand Ye in Holy Places."

We did this for New Beginnings, but it could easly be adapted for a Wednesday night activity. Our theme was "Shoes" Where You Will Stand, based on the "Stand in Holy Places" theme for 2013. We had some high heeled shoe shapes cut out of thin plywood and then used Mod Podge to adhere decorative paper to the front of the shape. The girls then decorated them with rhinestones, buttons, flowers, feathers etc. On the back of their shoe the girls wrote a goal that will help them stand in a holy place, such as: I "shoes" to pray every day, I "shoes" to read the Book of Mormon, I "shoes" to treat my sister with greater kindness... At our New Beginnings the girls all came to the front to show their shoe and explain their goal, and they took them home so they could look at them everyday to help them remember what they had promised to do. It was so fun, the girls were so creative with their shoe designs and they had a great time showing them off! Hope this is as fun and meaningful for others as it was for us.

Sunday's My Turn column in The Daily Item by Dawn Rohland regarding the state pension plan was a well written, timely discourse on the matter. Being a fellow state employee I have a vested interest (pardon the pun) in whatever the governor and his minions decide is the solution to fund the increased pension payouts. So far, the governor seems to have only the solution mentioned in the column: get rid of state workers.
An out-of-state or foreign company would take over the Pennsylvania Lottery not only taking great sums of money from the state's take of the lottery proceeds but costing more than a thousand jobs.
In addition, the governor wants to sell off the liquor store system which would cut another 4,000 jobs. I am an employee of this system and can tell you that of that group many of us are in our 50s and are very low on the reemployment food chain, so Mr. Corbett ought to explain how this would help anybody. This system costs the state nothing and only returns $500 million a year to the general fund.
Finally, let us keep this in mind when thinking about the pension system: the legislature voted for the present setup and payout schedules and rates. They also enacted a law that gives them a 3.25 percent increase in salary yearly. How many of us receive that kind of increase? We, in the state store system, received our first raise in two years and it was 1 percent. Many in the legislature will tell you they don't accept this increase but, guess what, that is extremely disingenuous -- their pension is figured on the salary so moving the money around is all that is accomplished.
Who is really costing the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania more, the employees or our elected officials? Thank you Dawn Rohland for providing information that the governor, legislature and the media should have supplied.
Harry Prentiss,

Elvis Costello clicked with the Roots so well during his various appearances on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon that a collaboration with them snowballed from one song to an entire album that seems like it will be ready for Record Store Day on April 20th.
Roots drummer Questlove recently talked with NYU Local about jamming with Costello in the Roots' dressing room studio at Fallon and the album they made together. "After Elvis Costello's third appearance, we liked him so much we were like, 'Hey why don't we make a record?'" said Questlove. "What went from being one song to be released on Record Store Day became 'Why don't we try four songs?' Now we have a brilliant album."
Photos: Jeep Heroes Tailgate With the Roots
Questlove says he's more than pleased with the nearly finished album, the title of which Costello wants to keep under wraps for now. "In the whole history of the Roots, I have never bragged on an album first, but I actually love this record," Questlove said.
The drummer also said the Roots will start working with Al Green on his next album, and that he's going to team with comedian Amy Schumer on a special. He's teaching a course at NYU this semester called "Classic Albums," and is currently working on D'Angelo's long-awaited new album.

When I was working at a feed store at sunny St. George Utah. I had the chance to buy my very first pair of Justin boots. I had been looking at the George Strait line for a long time. So I tried on the first pair I grabbed, and it was love at first fit. The boots fit me like a glove, and are one of the most comfortable boots I own. Rain, snow, mud, or heat. They have never let me down. I will always buy Justin boots, for many years to come. God bless you boot makers, you make all the difference.
I was yard sellin in El Paso. A pair of boots caught my eyes. The lady asked for $2. I gave her $5 because of the soles.
They were comfortable. However a friend found them more comfortable. He resoled them for me.
When i get on my bike my $2 boots are on.
Great boots from a big name company. $2 attracted me to continue to purchase from Justin.
I bought my first pair of ropers while staying in North Carolina a few decades ago. It was an accident really as up to that time I never had boots in that style.
Man, I have never looked back. I wear these babies all year round and in any climate. They are comfortable and stylish. Over the years I have bought several pairs even though with good care they last a few years each.
I have been overseas for a decade now with no end in sight, living in a forgotten third world country but every time I need a pair I have my sister order one and then ship it to me. Sometimes I pay more for the import taxes than the cost of the boots but it is so worth it.
If you are even thinking about a pair and never tried one do it! You will not be sorry. (Did I mention they are more comfortable than you could possibly imagine?)
Justin, you got me for life!
I bought my first pair of Justin work boots two weeks ago. I have worn them everyday for 12+ hours a day and these are the most comfortable work boots I have ever worn hands down. I won\'t wear anything else now. I hope that Justin doesn\'t every stop making these boots.
I was at my friends house hanging out in the backyard. In southern CA because of college. we saw some smoke coming from the street and a tire was on fire under my truck and I ran out there and kicked that tire while it was burning at least a 4 foot flame and I remember telling the guys it was alright because I has boots on. the tire got caught around my boot I got it off into the middle of the street. I remember saying, man my boot is done.... couple weeks went by, i just started wearing them again and the burn mark just added character. Nothing can beat the quality that these boots have. Made proudly in The good ole USA.

Made proudly in The good ole USA.
My husband and I took a trip to Gatlinburg several years ago. Of course we were shopping and I was looking for that "just right" pair of boots. We FINALLY found them after several stops and lots of stores. The best fitting most comfortable boots were your Gypsy Cowgirl Coral Cow boots. I loved them! I even received a pair of Ariat boots same size and everything and do not like to wear the Ariats. They were not the comfortable fit as my Justin's.
Then we got a dog.....a black lab. My most favorite pet ( a black lab, Abby) died in our house fire several years ago and my husband and I got another one, Stella 4 years ago. Stella was a chewer. We had to put everything up so that we would have a house left when we returned from work each day! Stella apparently decided my boots were next. She managed to only chew the very front of the left boot, not even touching the right boot! I am so disappointed that I have lost my pair of boots, but I am keeping Stella! She is a great dog now that she no longer chews!!!! I kept my boots and lovingly pull them out once in a while thinking why did I not put them up where Stella could not get them?! Oh well, she is a great dog and I have long ago forgiven her for messing up my favorite pair of boots. I even left my Ariats sitting out one day and she never even touched them. So , see, even my dogs prefer Justin over any others. Just wish I knew someone that has a left boot size 9B in the Gypsy Cowgirl Coarl boot!!!! Do you guys know where I could find just the left boot?
I purchased a pair of deerskin Justins a number of years ago, and they are my "go to" boots whenever I want something really comfortable for walking around OR the barn! I'm unable to ride any longer, and tie hiking boots never have been really comfortable for me, but I will never give up my Justins (or my old horse). I just brush them off, and I'm ready to go- to the barn, walking, or hiking- everyone always comments on how comfy they look. I only wish I could find another pair just like them, "justin" case anything ever happens to these.....
me and my wife where on our way to the store when a drunk driver ran a red light and t boned us on my side of the car I was driving. Even though they had to cut my boots off my feet they saved my ankles from being crushed during the impact of the crash. thank you all so much for the great product.
My name is Rylie. I'm a Australian Shepard border collie. I proudly wear my Justin scarf that my family picked up for me in Texas. If you ever need a non speaking part or someone to model your clothing line..I'm a doggone good guy!
Greetings from Finland!
Back in the late '80's my dad brought me a pair of Justin boots from his trip in the US. From that day on, I've been wearing boots everyday. In the icy winters and hot summers, good quality boots have been my shoe of choice.
Today, I passed on my first pair of boots to my son. Justins. I've taken care of them for over 20 years just waiting for this day. And my son fell in love with them.
I bought my first pair of Justin Boots from the P&K Western Store in Zip City Al, outside FLorence Al. Mrs Keeton has now sold Justin boots for 48 years. The Crepe soals are just great and whether I am Driving Trucks, working on the farm or hunting, I am comfortable in my Justin Boots
About 11 years ago , I purchased my western Justins in Bend , Oregon. They are a little scuffed up , and have a crack or two. I have never had a pair of shoes ,that have outlasted my Justins ! Thank you for putting so much quality and workmanship in my boots . My next pair will be Justins also !
I have been wearing safety toe boots for 30+ years. The first time I put on a pair of Justin Worker II Wyoming Boot I was hooked. As an Alaskan Miner I walk 2000 to 3000 steps a 12 hr shift wearing my new Justins it felt like I had been wearing them for months. Zero break in time, simply said Outstanding. The most comfortable boot I have ever worn, Hands Down. My Feet Thank You!!
After visiting the store in Justin, TX found the most beautiful pair of snake skin boots or should I say only 1 of them for the staff could not locate the mate to the boots I wanted to take home. So, I left my name, address and phone number so that when the mate was located they could let me know and I could return to bring them home. Months went by but I did not give up. After continually checking in with the staff, I kept getting the same response - we are still looking but haven't found the mate to the one boot yet. I'm sure most people would have given up and moved on but I wanted that pair. As with all the staff they were extremely friendly, definitely remembered me and didn't mind my continuing to follow up on this one pair of boots. Almost a year had passed but I hadn't given up yet, and I made my monthly call to check on my Justin snake boots - and I got the answer I had been waiting on - the mate was found. I immediately ran up there and picked up "my" pair of black snake skin boots that had been waiting to come home with me. Even though I have other cowboy boots to wear (is there any other type of shoe??) these have been and are still my most favorite even though they've seen better days. Most of the time if you see me, these are still what are on my feet. I LOVE these boots and they were definitely more than worth the wait. :)
Remember the movie Urban Cowboy? Once upon a time on the East Coast, a single suburban 20-something Virginia girl got hooked on all things western after watching that movie. When I visited my friend in Fort Worth back around 1980/81 and made a visit to Billy Bob's, I learned to 2-step and bought me some eel-skin boots, size 7-1/2. Fast-forward to 30 years of marriage, 3 grown children, a few repairs here and there (to the boots though I probably could use a few myself) and feet now size 9! And guess what, I can still wear them! Yes, one of my toes is coming through one side, but they stretched with me and still fit like a glove! I won't give them up without a fight!
Today while searching some of my deceased father's old things I found his old 1940 college yearbook. Upon opening the old yearbook and sandwiched in between some of the pages was this old photo of the employees of October 1941. To my knowledge, my father never worked there but did live a short distance from the location. Perhaps someone will know of a friend or family member who did.
I have a narrow foot B width. I wear my work boots all day long, so I need a comfortable boot and my Justin work boots are. Thank you for producing a quality boot. Best work boot I have found.
I work outside for a living. In the summers it is near 100 degrees and in the winter it can get to -30. I live in my Justin (Gaucho #4440) boots, from the 5 am to 11 pm I wear these boots. In the rain, snow, mud and dirt I wear these boots. I have had these for two and half years now, I am wearing holes on all side but these are still the most comfortable and longest lasting boot I have every worn.
Thanks Justin for making a boot That will hold up to my punishment and look good doing it.
I purchased my Justin standard work boots in January 2001 in El Paso, TX, size 10 while I was stationed there in the military. In the past 4,750 days I have owned these amazing boots I have worn them at least 2,500 days. They have tilled, plowed, hunted, fished, flown airplanes, held me up at the bar, road Harley Davidson's, and generally thrilled men and women throughout the world.
I now work as a contract pilot overseas and wear them on a daily basis. They have been to Iraq, Afghanistan, Jordan and even horseback riding in the foothills of the Himalayan Mountains of Kyrgyztan. They even started on fire at a fire pit in Kabul. They provided my feet with extreme comfort at every opportunity.
They have dressed up with me and they have dressed down with me; work or casual is a no small feat for these footwear. I always took the appropriate care of saddle soap and mink oil, like new every time. I swear I could run a marathon in these boots and have often thought of doing this. I loved them, they loved me. Fit my foot like a well fitted glove.
Sadly, after 13 years of dedicated service time grew the better of them. The soles were worn to the core and finally the entire tread separated from the boot.
I immediately conducted surgery on them with the use of "Shoe Goop" to adhere the sole back to the boot and a vice grip; it was horrible to watch and there was a tough several days when I didn't know what would become of them.
Sadly, they didn't make it.
I buried them on a sunny Tuesday afternoon on my property, the ceremony was glorious. I check the gravesite everyday, flowers, spilt beer like the old days. I know deep inside that they are watching over me.
I have many photos of me in my boots that I will forever treasure; and someday we will be together again.
Thank you Justin
James Kottsick
Over the years I have had many "nice" looking pairs of boots, but I will never have a pair that is as beautiful and as durable as my Justin full sea turtle boots! After 40 plus years of wear, and many sets of soles, they are still a beautiful pair of boots that have aged well....better than the owner has! I have had a lot of boots come and go through the years, but I can't imagine ever getting rid of my Justin sea turtle's!
I don't ride a horse I ride a steel horse..a Harley Davidson Iron. I have 15 pairs of boots all different colors, I match whatever I am wearing. My favs are the Caliente line I love color.
I go to a small work college, and bought my first pair of Justin�s to protect my feet while doing construction on campus. Little did I know, that a year later, they would serve as a barrier between my feet and a whole host of ghastly things lurking on the forest floors and city streets of Madagascar. During my time abroad I encountered: nipping feral dogs, 4 inch cactus spines, leeches falling from trees, the all too frequent pile of human feces, and the dreaded parasy (a parasite that burrows, and lays eggs in the tips of human toes). While the feet of my Chaco-wearing friends succumbed to these horrors, mine remained safely laced in my steel toed Justin�s. It was not my intention to wear my boots every day I was there, but my sandals fell apart one week into the trip and I had no means of replacing them. My Justin�s held up remarkably well for four months of being dragged on rocky trails, subjected to tropical humidity and frequently submerged in salt water. By the end of the trip, my feet were calloused and blistered, but nothing made its home in my skin and my boots seemed remarkably unscathed.
Now, almost two years later I have walked holes through the soles of both of my boots and am looking for a place to send them for repairs. Please let me know if you have any suggestions, I would love to have them fixed for my next tropical adventure.
Thanks for reading, and JB, keep up the good work.
PS- Please don�t judge me based on the length of my shorts, it was really damn hot.
Well for starters, I never thoughtdI'd be posting a story about my boots, but these boots are different. For the last few years I've been wearing a pair of workboots covered in tape. A) because I couldnt afford a decent pair and B) when I did finally order a pair 400 $ later only to recieve them and realize they were made overseas. By a well named company I might add, that rymes with banner. To much disappointment I contacted said company over craftsmanship only to basically be laughed at. Needless to say I shipped them back and went back to my trusty taped up boots. Im a female construction worker and have a hard time finding good boots in my size. Much to my suprise santa left a pair of Justin boots for me under the tree for xmas...aged bark gortex, I'd never owned a pair of Justin boots and only knew them in the cowboy sense. After placing them on my feet and taking several steps around my livingroom I quickly realized why the cowboys and girls praise the Justin name. These are the most comfy boot I've owned to date and although I don't have a horse or wear a cowboy hat, I feel like a cowgirl in workboots and couldnt be happier. Thank you to Jeremiah who worked hard on craftsmanship and everyone else at Justin for the hardwork in the U.S.A . I love my boots
I bought my wife a pair of Justin boots to slip on real quick while she was letting our dogs outside. Wrapped nicely under our tree 4 days ago. And Christmas Eve night while we were gone our house caught fire and destroyed everything. I was able to find part of the boots and showed her. She was so thankful even though they were beyond wearable. I know it's not the type of story you're looking for on here but it made her happy and in turn put a smile on both our faces. We took a picture of it so we can have at least one good memory of us on Christmas.
Since 1879 people have shared their boot stories with us. They shared them in person, by telegram, by letter and lately, by email. Now, you can share them here. Every boot has a story. We want to hear yours.

The book is based on his This American Life story.
Imagine finding yourself on a train platform in India. A train is just pulling away, you have no ticket, and you have no idea who you are. You'd probably pinch yourself and hope you'd woke up. But when MacLean found himself in this situation in 2002, it wasn't a dream.
Steve Scher talks with University of Washington professor Leilani Nishime about her book, "Undercover Asian: Multiracial Asian Americans in Visual Culture," and about how media portray the demographic.
Steve Scher talks with Megan McArdle about why she thinks it's OK to fail as long as you learn from the experience. She also discusses what she learned about human failure while writing her book, "The Up Side of Down: Why Failing Well Is the Key to Success."
Ross Reynolds sits down with actor, stand-up comedian and screenwriter B.J. Novak. The 34-year-old Harvard grad, known for his role in the TV show "The Office," has also appeared in movies like Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds" and most recently, "Saving Mr. Banks."

David Hyde talks with journalist and author Annie Jacobsen's latest book "Operation Paperclip: The Secret Intelligence Program that Brought Nazi Scientists to America." The book is the account of more than a dozen German scientists recruited by the U.S. government after WWII.
Why does the U.S. spend much more on health care than other nations, yet lag behind in key measures of wellness? KUOW's Ross Reynolds spoke with author and scholar Lauren Taylor about her research on this perennial question.
"We spend exorbitantly on health care in this country," she said. "We're up above $8,000 per person per year, whereas the average industrialized country is able to spend less than $4,000 per year on health and attains many better outcomes in terms of maternal mortality, life expectancy and infant mortality."
Marcie Sillman talks with G. Willow Wilson, the creator of the new Ms. Marvel series. The comic book stars Kamala Khan, a Muslim-American teen superhero.
You don't have to know much about San Francisco to be a fan of Armistead Maupin's long-running series, "Tales of the City." Maupin first created his quirky "family" of friends for the San Francisco Chronicle in the mid-1970s.
The plot of many a dystopian novel or movie is predictable: first technology advances, then humans become dependent on that technology and, finally, that technology turns on us. But what if the brain that makes the smart computer is being made smarter by the computer? Ross Reynolds sits down with Clive Thompson about the new book, "Smarter Than You Think: How Technology is Changing Our Minds for the Better."

Volkswagen R32 Prices Paid and Buying Experience
I actually drove one yesterday. My local dealer has 3, all blue without nav. I was pretty impressed. It's definitely on my short list. I'm still checking out a couple other cars, so I didn't press the price issue yet. They offered invoice minus incentives right out of the box, so I'm not sure how more room they have to go down. They did agree that the $4,000 is available though.
I was a bit disappointed that neither blue tooth, nor an ipod adapter are included in the base price, but they are available as a dealer add on. (ipod is included in the nav package)
I felt the interior materials and fit and finish were excellent, and I think I could seat in those seats all day.
Have fun with yours! What color did you get?
Wow! That means you should be able to get the car for a little more than $28K...impressive. I got the exact car you drove...Blue no-nav, I think #1380 of 5000.
I test drove the G37S, 135i & R32 and for $29K, I just couldn't justify the $37K for the 135 or G. And here is the crazy thing, I actually had MORE fun driving the R32 than either of those two cars. The 135i (manual) was wicked fast....but it was so smooth and quiet, it just didn't get my bp up :confuse: ...of course, note that I've owned a 330i and it didn't feel that much different than it; and it certainly didn't look much different, inside or out. And the G37S was impressive with a nice exhaust note, but felt too unrefined. The R32 was the perfect balance between the two. And in ref to the Ipod...that was tough for me as well, but the Sat radio that is standard offers enough choices for music....and that way I don't tire of my Ipod tunes and reserve those for workouts and grass cutting.;)
I haven't seen any incentives listed yet, but I would imagine that you should still be able to pick up a non-nav 08 R32 for somewhere between $28K-29K. I would think the $4K under invoice is still a very good target price.
I now have about 700 miles on mine and I love it. The power combined with the all wheel drive grip is amazing....I'm looking forward to reaching that 1000 mile mark and giving the launch control a try....should be fun.
micro_chip_man Posts: 7I just test drove an R32 at my local broker here in Portland, Oregon. I have to say these are sweet rides. The one I drove had an cold air in take, strut bar, cupra lip, Koning 18" Wheels, and a flapper mod already done. The car is super clean and is has a real monster under the hood. Check it out at http://www.DAngeloAutoSales.com. The price is fair and they have a bunch of really cool cars in their show room.
No Navi....I'm not a big fan of the old dvd based nav system in the 08 or older VWs. They have finally seen the light and have a completely new system in the new CC and I'm sure it will be in all the new VWs. So, I basically got my R32 for $2500 under invoice & the 2.9% financing. I was very happy with the deal. I've got just under 2K miles on it now and really love the car. I don't think I'll ever get tired of hearing that exhaust note! :shades:

There's been a change at the top at Belle Oaks Golf Club. James You, who spent four years as the general manager at Pine Crest Golf Club in Houston, has been hired by the Port Arthur Renaissance Group to oversee all operations at club in Taylor Landing.
You, who was born in South Korea, came to America in 1991, attended Houston Community College for two years, then moved to San Diego to attend San Diego Golf Academy He graduated in 2006 with a degree in Golf Complex Operations and Management.
After leaving San Diego Golf Academy, You got a job at the Super Golf Range in Houston, then became general manager at Pine Crest Golf Club.
You has certifications in club repair, teaching and tournament operations, with related course work in golf fundamentals, club fitting, short game, methods of teaching, advanced teaching, tournament planning, marketing and golf facilities management.
"We think James will bring a fresh outlook to Belle Oaks and the direction we plan on taking the course," said Brad Bengston, VP of Marketing/Operations for the Port Arthur Renaissance Group.
One of You's first projects at Belle Oaks was much-needed bunker work. Golfers who played out there last weekend probably sand him digging up traps.
CHIP SHOTS: Mike Johnson of Bridge City authored the first reported hole-in-one of 2014 in Southeast Texas on Jan. 5. Johnson, using a 3 hybrid, sank his tee shot on the 143-yard, 2nd hole at Babe Zaharias. It was Johnson's first ace. Witnesses were Andy Meshwerth and Kirk Roccaforte . . . Bill Taylor of Taylor Landing recorded a rare eagle 2 on the tough, par 4, 4th hole at Belle Oaks. Taylor holed his second shot from 182-yards with a 5-wood. The shot was witnessed by Rufus Mier, Raymond Rice and Major Rising . . . Here's how fine the line is between a decent week and a good week on the PGA Tour. Chris Stroud, after being a stroke off the lead midway through the third round of the Sony Open, settled for a T20 and a $54,818 check. One shot less and he'd have bagged a third top 10 in the wraparound 2014 season and a $119,000 payoff. Two less and it's T7 and $187,600. Stroud's downfall was the way he scored on the short, par 5, 18th hole at Waialae Country Club. On the hole that played second easiest over 72 holes, Chris went bogey-par on the weekend and was only one under in four tries. He'll be back in action this week at the Humana Challenge in La Quinta Calif . . . Another Lamar University ex, Dawie Van der Walt, let some big money slip through his fingers in the final round of the European Tour's high dollar Volvo Championships Van der Walt, who was T10 entering the final round, closed with a 78 and skidded to a T33 that was worth $43,000 . . . Dennis Walsh will soon be getting some national publicity on the United States Golf Association's website — www.usga.org. Walsh, who won the 1979 U.S. Amateur Public Links Championship, has been contacted by the USGA's David Shefter for his recall of the 1979 event and for his thoughts on the USGA retiring the Public Links as one of its championships after this season. Dennis, as evidenced by a piece on that subject done in this column last February, has some strong thoughts on the elimination of the Public Links Championship . . . Jim Brown, with plus 9, won the Friday Seniors at Belle Oaks Golf Club. Major Rising was second at plus 6 and Twyman Ash third at plus 5. Brown also won closest to the pin on No. 8 . . . The Super Saturday Game at The Babe was played in a 2-ball format, with the team of Paul Flores, Bill Hammond, Ivory Hatch and Pete Reobroi winning the front in minus 3. The back finished in a tie at plus 1 between the team of Rick Brunner, Bill Draughon, Charlie Leard and Gene Hardy and the foursome of Chris Forster, Cecil Norris, Glen Marino and Don Duplan . . . The Senior Game at The Babe was played in a four person scramble. Finishing first at minus 12 was the team of Earl Richard, Larry Foster, Bob Barnes and Gene Hardy. There was a tie for second at minus 10 between the team of Rick Pritchett, Harry Green, Joe Cormier and Harold Wilkinson and the foursome of David English, Dillard Darbonne, Ron Sciarilla and Larry Rogers. Closest to the pin winners were Richard (No. 2), L.J. Hardy (No. 7), Stedman Tahaney (No. 12) and Larry Stansbury (No. 15) . . . Opening event on The Winter Tour, co-sponsored by the Southeast Texas Junior Golf Tour and The First Tee of the Golden Triangle, is set for Saturday at Babe Zaharias. Players can sign up by going to www.southeasttexasjuniortour.com or by calling Ed Campbell at 722-8286. Entry fee is $20. The Winter Tour offers flights for 7-9 Co-ed (6 holes modified tees), 10-11 Co-ed (9 holes red tees), boys and girls 12-13, boys and girls 14-15 and boys and girls 16-18.

Valpo Falls at Southern Utah
Saturday, January 27, 2007Valparaiso placed three players in double figures and was within six points with 2:26 to play, but Southern Utah pulled away late for a 76-60 victory Saturday night in Cedar City, Utah.
The Crusaders found themselves down 13 with 5:05 left, but Brandon McPherson (Indianapolis, Ind./Lawrence North) hit two triples over the next 1:16 to pull Valpo within seven points. Steve Barnes hit two free throws for the Thunderbirds to extend their lead to 61-52 with 3:17 left, but Jake Diebler (Upper Sandusky, Ohio/Upper Sandusky) answered immediately with a layup.
Swaney Cooper split a pair of foul shots on Southern Utah's next possession to take the lead back up to eight. Shawn Huff (Helsinki, Finland/Makelanrinne) grabbed the miss on the second attempt and was fouled, draining both free throws to make it a 62-56 ballgame. Cooper once again split a pair of foul shots, and Jarryd Loyd (Lincolnwood, Ill./Niles West) had a chance to cut the lead to five.
Loyd hit the first shot and missed the second, and Justin Allen got a putback bucket on the ensuing Southern Utah possession, giving the T-Birds a 65-57 lead with 2:13 to go. Samuel Haanpaa (Kerava, Finland/Cornerstone [Texas] Christian) split a pair of attempts from the charity stripe on Valpo's next time down, but seven points was as close as the Crusaders could get.
Valpo's largest lead came just five minutes into the ballgame, as the Crusaders held an 8-4 advantage after a triple by Huff. Southern Utah tied it up two possessions later, and the teams traded baskets, until an Urule Igbavboa (Oakdale, Minn./Tartan) layup tied the game at 13 with 9:34 to go in the half. Southern Utah answered with an 11-0 run to extend the lead to double digits, and went into the half up 31-19.
McPherson led the Crusaders with 17 points, but connected on just 2-of-8 attempts from behind the arc, as Valpo shot just 21.7% (5-of-23) from downtown. Haanpaa scored 13 for Valpo, while Huff added 12. Haanpaa also grabbed a team-high six rebounds.
Orlando Griego led Southern Utah (14-8, 4-3 Mid-Con) with 19 points, while Barnes and Cooper chipped in 13 each. Griego pulled down seven rebounds for the T-Birds, while Barnes, the Mid-Con's leading assist man, dished out nine helpers.
Southern Utah hit at a 50% (25-of-50) clip from the field, compared to Valpo's 36.4% (20-of-55) effort. Both teams went to the foul line numerous times, with SUU converting on 22-of-30 attempts, while the Crusaders hit 15-of-22 shots from the line.
Valparaiso (10-11, 4-3 Mid-Con) returns home for a crucial conference weekend next Thursday night as the Crusaders play host to Mid-Con leader Oral Roberts. Opening tip is set for 7:05 p.m., and all the action can be heard live on the Valpo Sports Radio Network (WVUR, 95.1 FM, Valparaiso; WEFM, 95.9 FM, Michigan City; WAKE, 1500 AM, Valparaiso) and online at www.valpo.edu/athletics. The game will also be broadcast on Lakeshore Public Television, with a video webcast available online.

Perhaps for most people, getting up in the cold early hours to plunge into an outdoor swimming pool is the last thing they would choose to do first thing in the morning. But for a few, it's a choice they happily make.
"It's just a part of swimming," said Megan Severa, a Team USA triathlete who trains at the Van Nuys-Sherman Oaks (VNSO) Pool. "Early morning practices just come with the package."
Severa is an elite member of the Southern California Aquatics (SCAQ) swimming program based at VNSO, located at 14201 Huston St. She works out there several days a week with a small group of the swimmers that populate the fast lane, training under the guidance of SCAQ coach Mark Savage, a UCLA alumnus and photojournalist.
According to Clay Evans, SCAQ founder, UCLA swimming star and two-time Olympian (Evans won Silver at the Montreal Olympics), SCAQ is the largest Masters swimming program in the United States. SCAQ offers training for every level of adult swimmer in eight pools throughout Los Angeles County, with the VNSO club training some of the best swimming talent in the San Fernando Valley, where a large percentage are triathletes like Severa. Evans said that SCAQ is also open and welcome to adult newcomers wishing to take up the sport for competitive training or for a structured workout.
Severa, a Wisconsin transplant, told Patch she took up swimming back in first grade because her friends at school were swimmers. Severa said she used to wait around for them while they practiced. Then it struck her.
"Why am I just sitting here, when I can be swimming with them?" Severa realized.
Severa said she has been swimming competitively for 18 years total, taking up triathlon competition for the last four years. "I tried to quit [swimming] in college, and I came back a few years later."
Severa competed last month at the 2012 ITU World Championships in Auckland, New Zealand, representing Team USA in the triathlon. Earlier this year, Severa competed at the USA Triathlon National Championships in Burlington, Vt. where she qualified for the 2013 World Championships in London. Severa also raced with Team USA in Beijing in 2011.
Severa said the Auckland event was an "Olympic distance triathlon," consisting of an under-one-mile swim, a 25-mile bike ride, and a 6-mile run, where "all the fastest in the world" competed in specified age groups. Severa said she finished in the top 50% in her age group.
Patch asked Severa if she had been to New Zealand before, and she stated that this was her first visit to that country. Severa said she was invited to compete at the World Championships there based on her qualifying at the U.S. National Championships, so she felt this opportunity was a great honor. "I wanted to do my best to make it there," Severa said.
Severa also told Patch that she noticed one way New Zealand differs from the United States is by its prominent farming and ranching culture.
"There's a lot of sheep! There's like ten times more sheep than people. You'll be on a hike, and you'll look next to you, and there's dozens of sheep; Which was actually great… I love the sheep!" Severa exclaimed. "I fed a lamb with a baby bottle. It was awesome!"
Severa stayed two-and-a-half weeks in New Zealand, visiting the cities of Auckland, Queenstown and Wellington. "New Zealanders are the nicest people and it's a beautiful country." Severa said.
Severa noted she is not competing in any more events until next year's Triathlon competition in London, and will use her "off-season" to focus on areas of improvement, especially for the London event.
Severa said she will do more yoga, stretching and relaxation in her off-season. "I don't really decrease training volume, but the intensity goes down. Just to get some downtime, so it's not always go, go, go."
Severa is employed as a registered critical care dietitian at Valley Presbyterian Hospital in Van Nuys. Patch asked her if her career was inspired by her active lifestyle.
"Definitely. I think health is the most important thing you can give yourself. Fitness and proper nutrition are just key to living a long and happy life." Severa said. "So what I do at work and what I do outside of work all come together very nicely for me."
Patch asked Severa for any words of advice to people looking to become more active by swimming.
Severa quickly offered: "I would say go for it. Find a pool, find a team, come to SCAQ. You get one free workout to see how it is, which is what I did."
"When I moved here, I really didn't know anybody, and I wanted to do something active, and I wanted to meet people." Severa said.
"So I just took a chance, I showed up to SCAQ. I was really nervous about it, and now I've been swimming with them for three years now. Just come out and give it a try."
Clay Evans from SCAQ invites anyone to a 101 Workout/Clinic for FREE, and also to try out FREE two weeks of workouts. To find out more and to sign up, visit SWIM.net.
Evans said half of the swimmers at SCAQ started there as beginners, where a SCAQ coach was also their first swim teacher, so "everyone can fit in." Evans said that SCAQ is well-trained to teach even those who do not know how to swim, or who are initially fearful of being in the water.
"We are so popular because our people just like the organized, structured coached workouts with all the tech work thrown in." Evans added.
According to Evans, SCAQ currently has three Olympians coaching swimmers in their program, so if you want guidance in getting the "most fitness" out of the time spent in the water, SCAQ is the place!

The Sherman Oaks Neighborhood Council was treated to a bit of a scoop Monday night at their board meeting when Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa's press secretary shared a letter that was schedule to be released Tuesday to the council.
In the letter, Teddy Davis said the mayor outlined the steps he would like to see in order to support a proposed half-cent sales tax increase that the City Council is considering for the March 5 ballot.
"This is always one of my favorite Neighborhood Councils to come to visit because I had Neal Roden for 8th grade anthropology," Davis quipped, pointing to one of the SONC board members who is now the principal of The Buckley School Middle School in Sherman Oaks.
Davis said he wanted to share with the Neighborhood Council the letter that will be shared with the City Council at 10 a.m. Tuesday. The Los Angeles Times and the Daily News were to release the letter on Tuesday, too.
"The sales tax increase could be on the ballot the same time as the city considers the new mayor," Davis said.
There is some concern that if the sales tax is not increased from 8.75 percent to 9.25 percent then the Los Angeles Police could lose 500 officers because the city faces a $216 million deficit.
"If we are going to ask the people of Los Angeles to vote for higher taxes, we must continue to cut spending, spur job creation, protect public safety and maintain fiscal discipline," Villaraigosa wrote in the letter.
"Thus far the City of Los Angeles has relied primarily on permanent and one-time spending cuts rather than new revenue to balance the budget.
"We have drastically reduced the size of the General Fund civilian workforce by one-third through the elimination of over 5,000 positions."
The mayor is calling on the city council to move forward with:
* New operating model for the Los Angeles Zoo,
* Alternative management for the Convention Center,
* Position cuts,
* Police hiring,
* Department consolidations
and other requests.
City Hall was closed on Veteran's Day, so the Sherman Oaks Neighborhood Council said they appreciated Davis's appearance at their meeting.
SONC president Jill Banks Barad said, "Los Angeles has been known not to be friendly to the business community, and I'm talking as a business person."
She said she was concerned that the sales tax would hurt Los Angeles. Davis said that the impact would have to be considered, and that the City Council could make the tax temporary.
See the video above of Davis reading portions of the letter.

Secretary Gates Aims to Cut the Growth of Military Spending
by Charles Lemos, Mon Aug 09, 2010 at 04:48:10 PM EDT
Secretary of Defense Robert Gates announced on Monday deep cuts to the rate of growth of military spending as the nation enters a period of belt tightening. The cuts include closing a major military command, restricting the use of outside contractors and reducing the number of generals and admirals across the armed forces and are aimed at offsetting the growth of military spending.
From the New York Times:
Mr. Gates said he had ordered a 10 percent reduction in spending on contractors who provide support services to the military, including intelligence-related contracts, and placed a freeze on the number of workers in the office of the secretary of defense, other Pentagon supervisory agencies and the headquarters of the military's combat commands.
Mr. Gates, who has been promising to cut the Pentagon's day-to-day budget in order to meet the continuing costs of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan in the face of tight fiscal constraints and mounting domestic spending, placed a cap on the number of generals, admirals and senior civilian positions across the Pentagon and the military. He said the Defense Department should try to cut at least 50 general and admiral posts and 150 senior civilian positions over the next two years.
The most pronounced change, in terms of the number of jobs to be eliminated in one blow, was his plan to close the military's Joint Forces Command, in Norfolk, Va.
The command includes about 2,800 military and civilian positions supported by 3,000 contractors at an annual cost of $240 million. Its responsibilities, which includes programs to force the armed services to work together on the battlefield, will be reassigned, mostly to the military's Joint Staff.
While large headquarters have been combined and realigned over the years, Pentagon officials could not recall a time in recent history when a major command was shut down and vanished off the books.
Still the cuts outlined by Secretary Gates do not represent an actual decline in year-to-year total spending. The Pentagon's budget will keep growing in the long run at 1 percent a year after inflation, plus the costs of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, which are not included.
Mr. Gates is calling for the Pentagon's budget to keep growing in the long run at 1 percent a year after inflation, plus the costs of the war. It has averaged an inflation-adjusted growth rate of 7 percent a year over the last decade (nearly 12 percent a year without adjusting for inflation), including the costs of the wars. So far, Mr. Obama has asked Congress for an increase in total spending next year of 2.2 percent, to $708 billion — 6.1 percent higher than the peak under the Bush administration.
Mr. Gates is arguing that if the Pentagon budget is allowed to keep growing by 1 percent a year, he can find 2 percent or 3 percent in savings in the department's bureaucracy to reinvest in the military — and that will be sufficient to meet national security needs. In one of the paradoxes of Washington budget battles, Mr. Gates, even as he tries to forestall deeper cuts, is trying to kill weapons programs he says the military does not need over the objections of members of Congress who want to protect jobs.
Over all, Mr. Gates has ordered the armed services and the Pentagon's agencies to find $100 billion in spending cuts and efficiencies over the next five years: $7 billion for 2012, growing to $37 billion annually by 2016.
At the moment, the administration projects that the Pentagon's base budget and the extra war spending will peak at $708 billion in the coming fiscal year, though analysts say it is likely that the Pentagon will then need at least $30 billion more in supplemental war financing.
Any takers on a bet that Charles Krauthammer and William Kristol will call these proposals irresponsible?
Just to throw a few hard numbers at you but US military spending now accounts for 4.7 percent of US GDP. During the Bush Administration, US military spending average 3.5 percent of GDP. Before the 9/11 attacks, US military spending was just 2.9 percent of GDP. Military spending last topped 4 percent of GDP in 1991 during the First Gulf War and in the closing hours of the Cold War.
The United States accounts for 47 percent of the world's total military spending, however the United States share of the global GDP is about 21 percent. Still it is likely that conservative analysts from the Heritage Foundation will rant and rave about Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid consuming 8.7 percent of GDP.

— One in a series on locally owned, small businesses.
By Travis Sloat
Times Correspondent
Tonia Cooper and Denise Bain met in 1996 when their kids were in preschool together. The connection was instant, and 16 years later they remain not only close friends, but also business partners.
"We have customers walk in all the time and ask us if we're sisters," Cooper said.
Bain and Cooper are the owners and operators of SonBurst Graphics, a shop on Poplar Street in downtown Fort Gibson which specializes in screen printing, signs, embroidery, signs and more.
Graphic design is not the first business venture they've been a part of, though. They previously owned a daycare together and then bought SonBurst in 2004.
Bain said they even ran both businesses successfully for a while before committing wholeheartedly to SonBurst.
"We work so well together because we know each other's strengths and shortcomings," Bain said. "If you can work 10-12 hours a day with someone and still be friends at the end of the day, that is a good thing."
Their shop is large and spacious, filled with machinery that allows them to print as many items as a customer needs. They have done projects as big as "pinking out" the Fort Gibson football stadium for breast cancer awareness, and as small as single T-shirts for a customer wishing to honor the memory of her mother.
Kathy White said she is incredibly happy with Cooper and Bain, and thinks SonBurst Graphics is perfect for any job.
"I've had two graduate school already, and one more still in school," White said. "I try to get all my school apparel through them. Every time I go in, I try to challenge them with a design and every time they rise to meet the challenge and exceed my expectations."
White also said she was particularly fond of the "bling" at SonBurst, which is a type of shirt ornamentation that uses small crystalline rhinestones pressed onto the fabric to create customized designs that sparkle.
Cooper said she loves being in Fort Gibson because of the friendly and local atmosphere.
"I love watching a tractor drive down the street," Cooper said. "I love having people come in off the street and just talk to us for a while. We've gotten a lot of business from customers referring us to their friends and family. Word of mouth can be a great thing."
Bain said her favorite part of the business is being able to see the end result of her work — a satisfied customer.
"I also love being able to participate in the community," Bain said. "If something comes up at the school, we love to help out."
SonBurst Graphics is open 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday–Friday and takes appointments after 5 p.m. on Saturdays.
They are Tribal Enforcement Rights Office certified, and can be reached at (918) 478-8600 as well as online at www.SonBurstgraphics.com.

Time Discounting and Time Preference: A Critical Review
Article Citation
Frederick, Shane, George Loewenstein, and Ted O'Donoghue. 2002. "Time Discounting and Time Preference: A Critical Review." Journal of Economic Literature, 40(2): 351-401.
This paper discusses the discounted utility (DU) model: its historical development, underlying assumptions, and "anomalies" - the empirical regularities that are inconsistent with its theoretical predictions. We then summarize the alternate theoretical formulations that have been advanced to address these anomalies. We also review three decades of empirical research on intertemporal choice, and discuss reasons for the spectacular variation in implicit discount rates across studies. Throughout the paper, we stress the importance of distinguishing time preference, per se, from many other considerations that also influence intertemporal choices.

Our family was in town for a softball tournament and had the pleasure of staying here. We stayed in the Furness Suite for part of our stay and the Beverly Shores Suite for the other part of our stay. Both rooms were very clean and comfortable and a nice size for our family of 5. The beach is just a short (but beautiful) drive away. My only complaint is that the internet service there was slim to none. Otherwise a wonderful experience and we would definitely return!

Hello all you Oregon Fruit Fans!
I have been the National Sales Manager at Oregon Fruit for 16 years now. I have loved every minute of my time here, the customers, the consumers, the staff, the brokers, and you, the readers have enriched my life beyond measure and I am grateful for each and everyone!
I have decided to make a pretty dramatic life change. I am going to work for a local Sacramento Non-profit that provides housing and support services to the homeless mentally ill.
I will be the Director of Development and Community Relations so my job is to raise money and raise awareness for this important work in my community. I have been in the food business in one area or another for my entire adult life (and some of my childhood) so I think it is time for a new chapter.
I am sure I will not stop baking, cooking or following cooking blogs and watching the Food Network it will just be for pleasure from here.
My last Oregon Fruit Recipe was prepared on Christmas and was a completely decadent Yule Log Cake. I didn't use my regular recipe as I wanted a deeper chocolate cake. The recipe I used was not really suited to the jelly roll application as it was just too moist but as is usually the case, the mistake turned out fantastic. The cake cracked all over the place as I tried to roll up the jelly roll with the filling. It was kind of a mess during the process but the finished product looked so much more realistic than anything I could have constructed. It reminded me that all those platitudes are basically true: Progress not perfection is the goal.

4) You can fix almost anything
5) Doesn't have to be pretty just delicious
6) Get your family involved, Cooking should be shared
7) Hide some fruit and vegetables in everything
Share your finished product with your neighbor and make a friend: "got anymore cake" my neighbor Joe
9) Get outside
10) tell someone you love them before it's too late
Thank you for sharing your time with me!! Please check back for a new voice from Oregon Fruit. The blog is not leaving, only I am.
