LONDON (Reuters) - South African miner Lonmin
The absence of a permanent CEO has been a major concern cited by investors seeking a clear strategy from the company after months of financial pressure, weak platinum prices and a wave of deadly strikes at South African mines.
Chief Financial Officer Simon Scott had ruled himself out of the job on a permanent basis, Lonmin said, but he would continue to fill the role until a replacement was found.
Farmer was admitted to hospital in August, coinciding with a wave of unrest at the group's Marikana mine that left 46 people dead and paralyzed operations.
The strikes increased pressure on a company that was already being squeezed by high costs and weak platinum prices.
It was forced to turn to investors last month to raise $817 million to avoid breaching lending terms.
Its biggest shareholder, miner Xstrata
Lonmin chairman Roger Phillimore said the group would miss Farmer's ability, commitment and drive at the company, where he worked for more than 26 years, including four as chief executive.
Shares in Lonmin were trading down 1.79 percent at 280.4 pence by 5.44 a.m. ET, underperforming a flat mid cap index <.FTMC> in London.
The stock has gained some ground since November 9, when it touched a 13-year low of 227 pence, but it remains 45 percent down on its level 12 months ago.

Olympic gold medalist Shaun White will not compete in the slopestyle event in the 2014 Winter Olympics.
The snowboard champion from Carlsbad, California, injured his wrist while practicing runs on the new course in Sochi, Russia Tuesday.
White made the announcement Wednesday. "After much deliberation with my team, I have made the decision to focus solely on trying to bring home the third straight gold medal in halfpipe for Team USA," White said in a statement, according to TODAY.
"The difficult decision to forego slopestyle is not one I take lightly as I know how much effort everyone has put into holding the slopestyle event for the first time in Olympic history, a history I had planned on being part of."

Updated notes from second practice.
1. He didn't have much of a scrimmage on Saturday. He began Georgia Tech's fall camp as the co-No. 2 quarterback with Synjyn Days and is now No. 3. Vad Lee is undeterred.
"As always, you have some great days, you have some tough days," Lee said Monday following the team's second practice of the day. "You've just got to keep fighting through it."
Three weeks remain until the Yellow Jackets open against Virginia Tech Sept. 3 in Blacksburg, Va. Coach Paul Johnson noted that the depth chart is constantly changing and that "I wouldn't read too much into it until you get to about game week." If his number is called against the Hokies, Lee said he'll be ready to play.
"I think I got a lot of good things done in the spring," he said. "I'm just building off that and working this camp and just trying to get ready for Virginia Tech."
Johnson said that Saturday, "it was just in general, he just didn't have a good day."
Lee, whose promise as a passer has made him popular among Tech fans, has had challenges mastering the option. Lee said he feels pretty comfortable with it, but allowed that it's not second nature.
"Everything happens so fast," he said. "You've got to be focused in on every play."
The competition between Days and Lee to be No. 2 behind Tevin Washington will continue.
"He's going to be fine," Johnson said of Lee. "I'm not worried about him."
2. One of the most notable changes in the updated depth chart was B-back Zach Laskey moving ahead of Charles Perkins to second string behind starter David Sims. After Laskey's strong performance in the Saturday scrimmage, Johnson had hinted at the move on Saturday.
"He's had a really good camp," Johnson said. "He breaks a lot of tackles. He's done some good things in the hole, shown some good feel."
Perkins missed Monday's two practices with an injury suffered Saturday. With Sims also out, Laskey split first-team snaps with walk-on Matt Connors, while Marcus Allen and Broderick Snoddy worked with the second team. Snoddy, who has also worked at A-back, has been taking snaps at B-back in recent days.
Coaches "just want me to keep my pad level down, make sure I hit the holes hard," Laskey said. "I've kind of just been working on that."
3. The team practiced in full pads Monday morning and came back in shoulder pads in the afternoon, the Jackets' second double session of fall camp. When rain began to fall in the afternoon, Johnson moved practice into the indoor facility. Johnson deemed the morning practice "O.K." and the afternoon session "good."
The play of the day was turned in by wide receiver Jeremy Moore, who made a one-handed diving catch in the corner of the end zone on a throw from Washington from about 40 yards out.
Among players who were held out: Offensive tackles Ray Beno and Morgan Bailey, wide receiver Jeff Greene, cornerback Rod Sweeting and B-backs Sims and Perkins. Johnson said Sims, who had surgery to repair a stress fracture in his shin over the summer, re-aggravated the injury in practice.
"We've got some guys that are bumped and banged, but I don't think we've got anybody that's questionably out for a long period of time," Johnson said. "It might be a week or two, but I'm talking about blowing somebody out for the season."
4. Former Tech All-American safety Ken Swilling, a member of the 1990 national championship team, was named Monday to the ACC Legends class of 2012. Swilling and 11 other greats will be honored at the ACC championship game Dec. 1 in Charlotte.
5. With Greene out for Monday's morning practice, freshman wide receiver Anthony Autry was part of a rotation working with the first string with Chris Jackson, Jeremy Moore and Darren Waller.
"He's looking good," Waller said. "He's real fast out of his routes. He'll get after it, too."
Johnson said he wouldn't read much into depth-chart assignments until game week. He did offer praise of Waller.
"He's progressing," Johnson said. "I've been pleased with him in camp."

So it only takes a few good runs at B-back to move ahead on the depth chart now? How many losses, int's does it take to get bumped from starting qb???
August 13th, 2012
7:06 pm
As long as he's nowhere near the field when the punt return team runs out there, any news is good news for Laskey. Good to see he's making good progress. But what happened to Perkins? He seemed to be such a highly touted guy coming out of high school and things just haven't seemed to click for him since he took that redshirt when he came in.
August 13th, 2012
7:29 pm
Are Allen and Snoddy B-backs? No way for Snoddy—he's like 5′ 9″ and under 200 lbs.
August 13th, 2012
7:37 pm
Might just be a motivational thing with Perk. Johnson has long been hard on all players, but more on those most talented. If, however, Laskey is the man, then so be it; Johnson has to play the best players.
August 13th, 2012
7:41 pm
Snoddy is really a great fit for the B-Back position; he's a tough inside runner who can also get outside, and if he gets his crease, he'll break it all the way just like Jonathan Dwyer used to do. He just has to learn how to handle the mesh handoffs on the option plays and he'll be good-to-go.

To quote CPJ last season, "Charles Perkins and I define hard work differently." Some things will never change – you can't teach work ethic. Charles Perkins will never make the cut in the NFL because of this. Write it down!

I hope he's successful, because going for it more is almost always the right call.
August 13th, 2012
8:22 pm
George S. I think CPJ has been on the leading edge of going for it on 4th down as compared to his ACC peers. The same could be said of Les Miles from LSU and the SEC. I think there's still more acceptable risk that coaches could take if you consider that mathematics/probability of success.

Maybe Laskey is playing like he has a bur up his butt from his disappointment on special teams. A champion will learn from disappointment and work extremely hard to not let it happen again. I can't see criticizing Perkins just yet. Last season, I saw him run hard in a game and catch a pass out of the backfield for a big gain.

When Perkins signed out of HS with GT only one GT fan at the time told everyone to be very cautious and to not compare him to Dwyer, that would be me, the one & only WnE.
All my detractors called me names, accused me of being a mutt fan, among other things and said that CPJ's eye for talent was better than mine and that Perkins actually had a chance to be "better than Dwyer" since he played in the same offense in HS.
Fast forward to today and Perkins is a RS-Soph. going into his 3rd yr. out of HS, and he been passed by a former QB without that "gear" that RBs need and by Zach Laskey that was only offered at RB by Service Academies and non-BCS schools.
When Perkins RS'd I warned that my predictions might be true and that if he were really a game breaker he'd gotten on the field at A-back while the B-Back slot opened up in his 2nd yr.
I don't need any apologies, but remember this when WnE warns you of a possible BUST, please take my warning with caution, I am usually right more than I am wrong.
It official now, CPJ has recruited yet another "bust" at B-Back the most important RB-slot in his Offense.
If RBs have "it", then they usually show "it" pretty quickly, definitely by their Soph. or RS-Fr. yr., if they don't show "it" by then, then the most they'll ever be is "serviceable".
In the future when WnE says that he has analyzed HS film and gives commentary on a recruit maybe you folks will take me more seriously.

Who remembers Ross inserting Ken Swilling @ RB on short yardage plays following the Championship Season??
I seem to recall several in the Penn St game, which I believe was the first game of the Season that year, and if memory serves, Swilling got stuffed every time!!!

WnE — Thoughts on Justin Taylor…..Player or Bust.
"Sounds like this Kid might be something special for yall if Johnson don't get in his head wrong…"
Thoughts on the Triple Option…Old-school smash mouth Football or out-dated gimmick offense.
The answer….. Yes… This offense seems to cut both ways… it is tough to stop because no one sees it.. but I makes your defense bad because becuase every other 'normal' offense to them is gimmick to them as well."
Thoughts on Rueben Foster……paid or just a co-wink-e-dink he lands with Trooper Taylor.
Thoughts on Mark Richt…does less with more than any coach in Country or it's all Willie Martinez' & Mike Bobo's fault.
Defense has improve sense W Martinez's departure, How ever it seems to me that this defense came 'Alive' when we pick up two Ju Co Nose Guards! Our defense really played better with those guyus..
Thoughts on Nick Saban….the Best or the Greatest of all time!!!
Just the Best right now..
August 13th, 2012
10:08 pm
Zach Laskey is no slouch. He came to Tech to be the next B Back. Just because he is white doesn't mean that he is ahead of Perkins because he "works hard". The kid runs hard and is quick. I think the writing is on the wall for Charles Perkins. Kid needs to wake up before it is too late.
August 13th, 2012
10:12 pm
Thoughts on Nick Saban….the Best or the Greatest of all time!!!
Just the Best right now.
Good enough for me.
August 13th, 2012
10:16 pm
I think Broderick Snoddy would make one heck of a B Back. Kid is built like a speeding bowling ball. 5′9″, stout, and probably one of the fastest runners on the team. Hit the crease and all you have to do is run straight. Dwyer did that many a times hauling a spare tire to boot. This kids is faster than Dwyer and more fit.
August 13th, 2012
10:43 pm
I think Snoddy is the fastest guy on the team and definitely faster than Dwyer. I thought he was more a "scat back" though than a bowling ball–Dywer weighed 230–Snoddy is only 190—that seems small for a B-back to me. But if he can hit the crease quick and get into open field that could be a great threat.

August 13th, 2012
11:51 pm
No dawg, 2 juco nose guards? Kwame Geathers has been at UGA since he was a freshman. Willie Martinez bested PJ in 2009. Why is it no one can supplant TW, TW great kid not a d-1 QB.TW looks to be PJ's Reggie Ball. There may have been a reason why the SEC schools that recruited VL wanted him as a WR. Laskey was a 2 star recruit with offers from Air force and Navy. Better hope Sims gets and stays healthy , what he lacks in talent he makes up in desire.@big gt fan Pj is in way over his head , back to Southern Conference coaching sooner than later .This tech staff is minor league.Can't recruit , can't develop what it recruits.
August 13th, 2012

I guess it could happen, although it would be a surprise to me.

now i'm discouraged! i expected vad lee to be pressing tw for the starting job. thought he was recruited from a school that ran the option or spread offense. sounds like he is not sure what to do. although after looking over the "if-then" website, i can see why he's confused: complex offense.
August 14th, 2012

@dawgs..was he that same 2 star RB that outran that 4 star safety from Griffin you have up at Athens now twice to the end zone in a region championship game?

12:37 am
UOAD!!!! I think this young (yes young) OL and DL are poised to have a breakout year. We have the deepest roster talent wise that we've had in years (yes, even deeper than 2007). Although the top end talent may not be there (or may still be young), we are certainly deeper. Again, heavy on the analysis, and no trolling at all…. it's almost like I'm a better version of another commenter.
August 14th, 2012
12:53 am
"Zach Laskey is no slouch. He came to Tech to be the next B Back."
Whoa, slow the horses down there TD. I agree with you that he's no slouch, kid works hard and wants to prove he belongs on the field. Wish Tech had more like him, but the next B back? You and I both have a better chance of getting mauled by a polar bear next time we're in Florida than Laskey does to be the next Jonathan Dwyer.

Companies, mainly leaders, need to take a bottom-up approach with employees in order to succeed in future
In the future leaders, managers, marketers, HR will have a different challenge or opportunity with each employee building his/her own brand and amplifying their views in the spheres of influence, these members will find it difficult to 'manage' human resources, they have to start thinking about how to make the company relevant to these resourceful humans so that they embrace the company objectives and convey the messages in their spheres of influence. The tables are turning, companies that are moving away from hiearchy to wirearchy will survive in the future as they will be agile, resourceful with crowdsourced insights.

Apr 5 2013: The short answer is you need to have both the bottom up and the top down.
Any organization has to perform certain functions or it will not survive.
Edward Deming was the father of the Toyota manufacturing system and TQM and Lean and indirectly Six Sigma. They are about removing waste from companies process's. Which would include unnecessary levels of management.
At the other end of the spectrum Apple would not have been Apple without Jobs. John Sculley fired Jobs and the company languished he came back and built it into one of the richest company in the world. Walmart had Sam Walton, Ford had Henry Ford who borrowed the assembly line from meat packing plants, Kiichiro Toyoda borrowed many ideas from Ford in Toyota's manufacturing.
I agree bottom up is an imperative.
There have been some tremendous sucess stories of this being implemented in goverment.
Apr 5 2013: Thanks Pat
I agree that it has to be top down and bottom up, considering that top-down is already there, I was emphazing on bottom-up to complement top-down. There are many names in the industry like Steve Jobs, Henry Ford who have built up a company and its reputation, perhaps they wanted to build a great product or company, that's what they are passionate about. Some leaders don't have that intent or capability, they are more keen on building their reputation or short term goals and hence not ready to listen to anyone around them, thereby creating a 'negative vacuum' as I mentioned below.
I believe a bottom-up approach with some voice, can help break through these 'negative vacuum' areas around leaders, which is only good for the company.
Its refreshing to hear about such success stories in government.
Apr 5 2013: There has to be a vision/goal. Managers typically do not have the vision/goal. Anything persistently negative is not inherent in any business management, that is simply not true.
Some of the leaders do cross over from being interested to being interesting which is a problem which can create conflict. The best way to manage anything is by using the scientific method which means managing with metrics. When you do this is removes bad emotion from the process.

Summary: "For sheer adventure L'Amour is in top form."-- Kirkus Reviews Here is the kind of authentically detailed epic novel that has become Louis L'Amour's hallmark. It is the compelling story of U.S. Air Force Major Joe Mack, a man born out of time. When his experimental aircraft is forced down in Russia and he escapes a Soviet prison camp, he must call upon the ancient skills of his Indian forebears to survive the vast Siberian wilderness. Only one route lies open to Mack: the path of his ancestors, overland to the Bering Strait and across the sea to America. But in pursuit is a legendary tracker, the Yakut native Alekhin, who knows every square foot of the icy frontier--and who knows that to trap his quarry he must think like a Sioux.

|Interesting Fact:
|In the past year, Castle Medical Center established a New Graduate Program to assist in the integration of newly licensed registered nurses into the workplace. Ten new graduate nurses have been assimilated into the organization through this mentoring program to date. Additional program participants will be selected to enter the program in the latter part of this year.
|Best Practices #1:
|A unique practice the organization supports is empowerment for all associates. One way this is done is a form of the SHARE Aloha Recovery coupons. Any staff member has the authority to choose $7, $15, $30 service recovery coupons to assist in resolving a customer service issue. The associate can also choose to use the coupon to purchase a gift for the patient-family member; or give the coupon to the patient-family member for them to select their own gift. At no time is the associate required to ask permission to use the coupon or required to justify their decision to use a coupon. The Hospital also designates eight holidays and staff who work any of the eight holidays receive a holiday premium equal to one and a half times their base rate. Staff also receive a $1 weekend differential for all hours worked from Friday night 10:30 p.m. through 7:30 a.m. Monday morning.
|Best Practices 2:
|Commitment to Castles mission, vision, and values is inherent in all forms of leadership communication behavior. Applicants are introduced to Castles history and mission through a video prior to interview. Organizational values are reinforced by our President-CEO who attend an opening session of General Orientation. In fact, the entire morning of General Orientation is dedicated to informing new staff of our culture, including our focus on customer service in the form of our SHAREAloha Program, Castle Quality approach to teamwork. Additional mechanisms used by leaders to communicate values, directions, and expectations include leadership orientation; new physician orientation; hospital publiscations; midnight express (after hours visits by leadership staff); annual strategic planning retreats; open forums; serving as role models; performance appraisal system; hospital Intranet; Groupwise Email; monthly Director meetings provide leadership updates and strategy changes in regard to short-term and long-term goals. Directors then communicate pertinent updates and changes in their staff meetings. The communication between all components of the leadership system, each leader is a member of multiple teams across the organization. This cross-membership minimizes communication gaps and optimizes opportunities for sharing and learning together, thus enhancing leaders ability to set, communicate, and implement organizational values, performance expectations, and a focus on creating and balancing value for patienets, their families, and other customers. In addition, a VoiceCare system was introduced in January 2006 - Vocera - voice activated, hands-free communication device for front-line staff. Staff can communicate freely with each other while caring for our patients.

Dennis Fujitake Week - #15 - Conclusion
Dennis Fujitake's style is marked by bits of Moebius and Steve Ditko (that cover up there has a Creeper feel to it), but the main identifier is the strong, crisp storytelling. Those two pages are impeccable, and they're so easy to take in (helped along by Kenneth Smith's color work). This comic, co-created by writer Jan Strnad, was well crafted and ambitious in its world building. It lasted as long as it could in the marketplace of the day.
Fujitake drew Keith Laumer's Retief and some short pieces for Splat! (both titles for Mad Dog Graphics in the late 80s) as well as some Elfquest issues in the mid 90s. As far as I knew he was still living in Hawaii and semi-retired, but Marc Sobel hipped me to this article detailing Fujitake's 2005 collaboration with Len Yokoyama on an all-ages comic called Lil' Keiki. The print run was put out by the authors themselves and was limited to a few thoudsand copies.
A slew of Dennis Fujitake's early fanzine work can be seen here. Some great stuff in there.
Track these Dalgoda comics down or give them a chance if you come across any given issue. They're rare in their presence and beautiful in style.

Creator bios that appeared in Dalgoda #1. The only other picture I've seen of Fujitake is in a group shot on a cover of some local Hawaiian fanzine. Maybe it was the Hawaii State Comic Collectors Club newsletter (a club founded by Fujitake and other Ditko disciples Stan Sakai and Gary Kato). I at least know that the paper was pink.
I should mention that the Dalgoda series featured a back up serial, Grimwood's Daughter, written by Jan Strnad & drawn by Kevin Nowlan. The subsequent series, Flesh & Bones, featured The Bojeffries Saga written by Alan Moore & drawn by Steve Parkhouse. Great stuff all around; it was destined to fail.

Dalgoda was created by Jan Strnad & Dennis Fujitake, published by Fantagraphics Books in 1984. There's so much to say about this great series, but the thing I clearly recall at the moment is how FB fought to keep this book alive, how they juggled price points, color and printing considerations, distribution issues, flimsy subscriptions and a readership not loud enough to champion this comic.
That first image is from Amazing Heroes #49, the other two pages are from Dalgoda #2 and Flesh & Bones (featuring Dalgoda) #3, respectively.

This was the last time Dennis Fujitake would draw Shade… and this was the only time he ever drew for either one of the Big Two. This clean, classic looking profile image is from the Who's Who Update '88 #3 (like, no duh) and by this year, Fujitake's style was tighter and fully formed. He would've made the best successor to this Steve Ditko original.

Montage covers can be tricky, but this one works really well. I have such a soft spot for this era of fan art, or just fandom in general. I'm sure it was the fucking pits to actually deal with if you were, say, a critic constantly trying to prove that comics were capable of being more than escapist junk, but there's something potent about the bubbling adolescent mania attached to things like the X-men, or the Teen Titans, or even the Legion of Superheroes. This Fujitake cover represents that enthusiasm to me.

Predating Armageddon 2001 by a little over a decade (that one's for you, Jog), this striking scenario isn't complete without that great backdrop… the orange-to-yellow fade with the green color hold gives this cover such a creepy feel. I'm not sure who the colorist was for these covers/illustrations. Production person or respective artist? No question, though, this is one great cover.

Dr. Fate vs. Baron Mordo pin-up.
Lots of illustrations and covers from The Comics Journal on the horizon. This one is a back cover. Fujitake's Steve Ditko influence was in full effect here, and remained so for a substantial portion of his work. That's a plus for me, by the way.

Pin-up of the Batman.
This was a special color section of several illustrations in an older issue of The Comics Journal. I really like the set up that TCJ had: they would run these marathon interviews and sprinkle fan art all throughout. Other articles, essays and letter columns would get the same treatment. It still has a charm to it, and I'm sure the artists were stoked to see their work in print (and I think they got paid, too)!
Dennis Fujitake was one of the more polished ones, and he really grew in this atmosphere.

Tiny Wings meets Braid in Time Surfer for iOS
Jon Mundy
Time Surfer
iPhone, iPad
Casual, Endless running
We're often guilty of reductive and slightly lazy comparisons when describing new games. This new game is like this classic with elements of this one mixed in. That sort of thing.
As you can see, it appears as if we've used exactly the same shorthand technique with
Time Surfer
, the new game from
Bean's Quest
developer Kumobius.
The truth is, though,
Tiny Wings
is the phrase used in
Time Surfer
's own press release.
Actually, the exact phrase used is "
Tiny Wing
's simple physics-based slingshot gameplay and
's mind-bending time reversal."
We'll forgive the shameless name dropping on this occasion, as the first thing we thought when we viewed the gameplay trailer (see below) was "that looks a bit like
Tiny Wings
but with a cool rewind feature."
Said rewind feature could indeed be likened to Xbox 360 indie darling
, though you won't be warping time to solve any brain-melting puzzles here.
Time Surfer
is a fast-paced endless runner with the same undulating landscapes and accompanying rhythmic swoop mechanic as the aforementioned
Tiny Wings
You'll be using the rewind feature to thread your little surfer through precariously tight gaps that you might not have seen at the game's normal frenetic pace. There's also an attack element as you stomp on enemies for a speed boost.
Its graphics are a pleasant mix of retro-Japanese zaniness and psychedelic sci-fi, with spacey backgrounds mixed in with trippy organic elements.
There appear to be a hatful of pop culture references in the various characters you can unlock (some of which are pets that give you new powers), from a DeLorean car to a Terminator-like biker figure. We even thought we saw a Yellow Submarine in there somewhere.
Time Surfer
will be out for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch in January.

(FOX 11 / FOX News) Susana Medrano stood in her front yard, mesmerized by the orange and red flames creeping along the wind-swept mountain ridge behind her home, and struggled to leave.
Her children sat in the back of her pickup after grabbing the new clothes and backpacks they had bought for the school year, which starts next week. Now they were wondering whether they will have a place to live.
"It's hard because we don't know what's going to happen," said the mother of four, her eyes tearing up as she prepared to stay with family down the road in San Bernardino. "I've never seen the fire so close to my home."
The rapidly spreading wildfire raging through a rugged Southern California mountain range Thursday had already destroyed 26 homes and was threatening more than 500 other residences, forcing some 1,800 people to flee. One man suffered serious burns and five firefighters were injured, including two from heat exhaustion.
More than 1,400 firefighters and nine helicopters battled the flames as they pushed eastward along the San Jacinto Mountains, a desert range 90 miles east of Los Angeles.
The wind-whipped blaze was getting bigger and heading toward the desert town of Cabazon, said Cal Fire Riverside Chief John R. Hawkins.
The fire was estimated at nearly 22 square miles Thursday with 20 percent containment, but the direction could change in the area, which is known as a wind tunnel. Evacuation orders were issued in five towns, including parts of Cabazon.
"The conditions at the front right now are very dangerous," Hawkins said.
Authorities still have not determined what caused the fire.
Medrano was among scores of residents in Cabazon who were evacuated in the pre-dawn hours Thursday and returned after sunrise to pack up more belongings and watch the flickering line of fire snaking along the brown, scrubby mountains.
In the nearby town of Banning, Lili Arroyo, 83, left with only her pet cockatiel, Tootsie, in its cage and a bag of important papers from her home, which was rebuilt after being destroyed in a 2006 wildfire.
"There were embers and ash coming down all over the sky," Arroyo said. "The smoke was really thick. I was starting not to be able to breathe."
Along with Cabazon, the evacuation orders covered two camping areas and the rural communities of Poppet Flats, Twin Pines, Edna Valley and Vista Grande.
Most of Southern California's severe wildfires are associated with Santa Ana winds caused by high pressure over the West that sends a clockwise flow of air rushing down into the region.
This week's fire, however, was being fanned by a counter-clockwise flow around a low pressure area over northwest California.
It was the second major wildfire in the San Jacinto Mountains this summer. A blaze that erupted in mid-July spread over 43 square miles on peaks above Palm Springs, burned seven homes and forced 6,000 people out of Idyllwild and neighboring towns.
The latest fire also burned in the footprint of the notorious Esperanza Fire, a 2006, wind-driven inferno that overran a U.S. Forest Service engine crew. All five crew members died. A man was convicted of setting the fire and sentenced to death.
After touring the area, U.S. Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., who lives in Riverside County, said 165,000 acres have burned in California this year and climate change is setting conditions for more disastrous blazes, while budget cuts are limiting resources to fight them.
"Unless we take action, things are only going to get worse," she said.
A different blaze, a 60-acre wildfire, forced evacuations of about 75 homes Thursday near Wrightwood, a community in the San Gabriel Mountains popular with skiers located about 40 miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles.
From Hal Eisner:
Standing in the very
small community of Snow Creek you'd never know there was a potential for a
disaster! It is a mini canyon. There is no wind. A half a mile away, though,
winds are barreling thru the outskirts about 26mph. Up the hill smoke can be
seen trailing southward as winds - from north to south create a swirling
Firefighters say it's
the "swirling winds" that worry them. It's in those conditions fire
can head in any direction. It's also in windy conditions like that
firefighters can get hurt. Since Wednesday when the Silver Fire started 5
firefighters have been hurt. Lots of homes have been destroyed as well.
Twenty-six homes are gone, two damaged and one commercial building destroyed.
Two other homes have been damaged.
Weather conditions are
expected to change Saturday. Firefighters say they hope that won't make the
situation worse. Right now, the fire is only 25% contained. 16,000 acres have
been burned.
From Bob Decastro:
The Silver Fire continues to burn in Riverside County. Officials say it has now grown to 11,000 acres and is only 10% contained. The flames are being driven by steady winds toward the East.
One resident was airlifted to a hospital after being burned "head to toe." Two firefighters were treated at a hospital for heat exhaustion and released.
At least 15 structures have been destroyed but that number is expected to rise after an official count. Roughly 500 homes are still under mandatory evacuation orders.
The resources: More than 1,000 firefighters, 6 air tankers, and 13 helicopters. Night time water drops from the air are expected in the evening.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation.
As far as bugs go, caterpillars are usually pretty tame – except for one.

With a 6 year old pacemaker and the usual statin side effects, I felt that I needed to boost my energy levels. I've been pleasantly surprised by this Vitamin E. I certainly feel better all round. I have given full marks for taste. On the other hand, my 'good' for effectiveness could be an 'excellent' in another week or so.Goes Well With:Goes down well with porridge and CoQ10 as an anti-statin problem solver.

"In regards to Michael Smith: Spots simply are caused by oil. The reason you get more when you workout is because you sweat and the sweat dries and traps the oil, which causes spots. To effectively combat this, simply wash your wash after every workout, and use a moisturiser after. "

I guess with all suppliments you kinda wonder when and do they really work. I can only say these vit e tabs really do work . for years i suffered with spots and even more so after training strangley enough. To my disbelief the spots they have cleared up so if i never pick a weight up again i for sure will pick up these tabs . thanks mp

"I used supplemental vit E during and transitioning after doing a rapid fat loss / PSMF diet where my fat intake was kept quite low. This product worked well, because it stopped me getting symptoms of vit E deficiency (dry skin, poor training recovery, etc.). However, i think the product could be improved. For a start, ditch the soybean oil carrier which is horribly toxic and allergenic, and secondly, add in some other tocopherols like gamma-tocopherol to provide a more well rounded vit E supplement"

The end of the 40-hour workweek?
Salaried workers are asked to do much more. Meanwhile, lower-level jobs are being turned into part-time positions with irregular schedules.
This post comes from Seth Fiegerman at partner site MainStreet.
The era of a 9-to-5 workday appears to be coming to an end.
Higher-level workers are increasingly being asked to put in 50 hours or more a week, effectively working an 8-to-6 day at the very least, while lower-income workers are often forced to work fewer hours but at jobs with irregular schedules, according to a comprehensive report from the Center for American Progress (.pdf file), which reviewed dozens of studies from the previous 30 years to understand the changing work/life struggles of the country's labor force.
Driving these changes, as the center explains it, are companies turning lower-level full-time jobs into part-time employment to cut costs, savings that come at the expense of workers -- and their families -- losing the traditional schedules and financial benefits that come with full-time employment.
At least 50 hours
Some 38% of men in professional and management positions worked at least 50 hours a week between 2006 and 2008, up from 34% who worked those hours 30 years prior, based on government studies cited in the report. Women in higher-level positions experienced an even steeper change, with 14% working 50 hours or more in 2006-2008 compared with just 6% who did between 1977 and 1979.
These longer work schedules, which the center describes as being "ramped-up versions" of what full-time employment once meant, were found to be particularly common on the higher end of the income ladder.
"Many of the highest-paying and highest-status professional jobs require very long hours -- and, in today's 'winner take all' economy, turning them down can extract a sharp wage penalty," the researchers write in the report. Post continues after video.
Much has been written about the number of Americans forced to work longer hours in the aftermath of the recession, as companies cut their payrolls, but as the literature reviewed in this report shows, many higher-level professionals were in danger of becoming workaholics long before that. One Harvard study published in 2006, for example, found that a fifth of those in the top 6% of income earners actually worked 60-hour weeks on average.
On the other hand, lower-level workers are facing the opposite problem. The percentage of men in low-income professions who worked 50 hours a week was cut in half during the previous 30 years, despite the fact that these workers often want to put in more hours to build up their income. To make matters worse, though they work fewer hours, their schedules tend to be more irregular, with two-thirds of couples who earn less than $50,000 a year having at least one spouse who works hours outside the traditional 9-to-5 schedule (i.e., nights and weekends).
This change in schedules for high- and low-level employees not only has the potential to cause added stress while at work but, according to the report, it also has the potential to cut into the time these people would otherwise spend taking care of their households.
Companies lose
Even the companies themselves may not benefit in the end from pushing more inconvenient work schedules. As the center points out, one survey found that workers would be 30% less likely to quit their job within the first two years if they had flexible schedules. However, since their schedules are getting worse, not better, companies may have to confront higher turnover and the added financial burden that comes with replacing employees.
Despite the changes to the nation's overall work experience, there are plenty of companies that do provide flexible schedules and other perks to lighten the burden of a heavy workweek. To find a few of the best options out there, check out MainStreet's roundup of the companies with the healthiest work/life balance.
More on MainStreet and MSN Money:
Let's face it, the days when your family could live decent on one wage earner are long gone!! Now it takes two middle class incomes to even come close to making ends meet, and the hours we work are longer and longer.
Why is that? Many reasons that would take a book to explain, but here's just a few.
1. Too many jobs sent overseas.
2. An over abundance of cheap labor here because of immigration. (Illegal and legal)
3. Continually rising gap between the middle class and the wealthy.
4. Dwindling competition. Way too many mergers and buyouts causing Monopolies in many areas.
5. Political corruption. Neither party looks out for anyone but themselves and they are all rich.
6. Greed. It's not a dirty word anymore. It's a common acceptable business practice.
7. Death of the unions. They were far from perfect, but they helped negotiate better wages and working conditions for the people that had no other .
Fast forward to today: "You come to work for me. You work hard, do a good job and I will keep you until I can find someone to do it cheaper. Benefits? Not if I can get out of providing them! I intend to get mine, screw you! I'll work you until you drop. And, when you turn 50 I'll invent a reason to get rid of you and hire two just like you at half the salary and start all over.
Hell has a special place for those who abuse those unable to defend themselves.
Corrupt politicans bail out banks engaged in casino capitalism using your money
- Corrupt politicans pass legislation to overturn Glass Steagle so banks can get into insurance and brokerage business
- corrupt politicans keep the Fed Reserve and fractional reserve banking in control and in fact increase their powers.
- Reglators are corrupt and do not investigate fraud and corruption in too big to fails, insurance cos and big wall st. investment banks.
- Corrupt credit rating agencies are not investigated or indicted.
- Mortgage lending practices are not investigated, nor are lenders or fraudulant mortages or the Mers system which allows the avoidance of transfer taxes.
- No limits are placed on derivatives or oversight or on hedge funds.
- No inquiry into concentrated media ownership has been conducted.
- over 27 trillion has been handed over to banks, record deficits are created, and no money is getting back to small businesses which create most jobs.
- Billions are spent on wars you do not want and they are not making America safer. Your president got a nobel peace prize and got the US into 2 additional wars. He is systematically wrecking the economy. What next, the Nobel Prize in Economics.
- Globalists have pressured corrupt politicans to pass trade agreements like GATT and WTO that virtually guarantee manufacturing will go offshore. The biggest corps. like GE pay no taxes.
- They tell you that unemployment is 9.2% while 48 million are collecting food stamps and you believe it.
- Obama spent more money in his first year in office than all preceeding presidents. His deficits are outrageous. Government income is down, war costs up and they tell you no more tax increases. Come on folks!
Now the public is being asked to sacrifice and work harder for less so that gov't and globalists can continue to rape you. You thought slavery ended 100 yrs ago. Wake up folks, it's the bankers that are raping you, destroying your lives, livelihoods and who have bought and paid for your politicans. Bankers control the Fed, government, the military, big oil, big pharma and the 100 biggest corporations. Let's face it folks, you have been duped and you are going down fast.
Corruption is at never seen before levels and there are no investigations or indictments. Who are the real dummies, them or you. Good luck America.

CVS offering double Extra Bucks on store brand
Star players of the Drugstore Game never pay for toothpaste or tissue.
Until I joined the world of frugal bloggers, I had no idea there was a "CVS Game," in whch people used coupons and the CVS Extra Care Bucks rewards program to score free toothpaste for life and otherwise save on toiletries, cosmetics and other items.
This week through March 15, CVS is awarding double Extra Bucks rewards for CVS-brand items and prescriptions. To get the deals, customers need to present a Double Bucks certificate along with their ExtraCare card in the store or sign up online. You can get the certificates at the stores, online or in the weekly sales circulars. The Extra Bucks awarded during this promotion will be available the first week in April.
During the "I Heart Extra Bucks" promotion, shoppers will earn $2 in Extra Bucks for every two prescriptions filled and 4% back on all CVS/pharmacy brand purchases instead of the usual 2%. The deal includes all CVS brand items, not just medications.
- Bing: Printable coupons
The Drugstore Game, which includes loyalty programs at Walgreens and Rite Aid as well as at CVS, is a hot topic on personal-finance blogs. Most of the best deals involve matching store specials with manufacturers' coupons. More than 10 million people joined the CVS program last year, raising the total number of participants to 62 million, with seniors the fastest-growing demographic, CVS reported.
Here's what Cathy at Chief Family Officer has to say:
I wouldn't call The Drugstore Game the most important way I'm going to save money this year, but it may be my favorite way. I've been playing The Drugstore Game for almost two years now, and it's absolutely transformed the way I shop. I can't believe how much I used to pay for everyday items like shampoo, toothpaste, and toilet paper. These days, I have a list of items that I will only buy if they end up being free, and I have much lower target prices on other everyday items, like toilet paper, tissue, and dental floss.
Here is her primer on how to play. If you want to follow along as someone else learns, she is mentoring Nicole, a newlywed and full-time student in Iowa.
A guest post by Mercedes from Common Sense With Money details how she spent $7.30 at Walgreens for items she would have paid $44.52 for at Costco.
Crystal Paine at Money Saving Mom says her goal at CVS is to spend as little actual cash as possible and to come out with the same number of Extra Bucks she came in with. "By doing this, I usually will get $15-$50 worth of groceries and household items normally paying less than $1 out of pocket and earning enough ECBs to go back and do it again the next week," she wrote.
Crystal is a major blogger in the Drugstore Game. She has a CVS 101 tutorial and a Q&A and also posts the best weekly specials, plus links to other bloggers' tips on that week's CVS deals. She has similar link pages for Rite Aid and Walgreens deals.
For small families, the game doesn't yield quite as much as it does for large ones, but it's worth playing if you live near a CVS, Walgreens or Rite Aid store. If you live near extended family, consider working together.
While I've vowed never again to use my CVS Extra Bucks to get three Dove candy bars for 24 cents, I have discovered a few tips for those who want to play in a small way:
- Sign up online. You'll get frequent printable coupons for $4 or $5 off a $20 purchase.
- Scan your card when you enter the store. That will usually yield a coupon, which you can use right away.
- If you don't shop often, consider two transactions. Buy the products that will yield Extra Bucks, then come back immediately and spend them. I did this when Dove shampoo and conditioner were on sale and yielded $10 in Extra Bucks if you bought five bottles total. As soon as I paid for those, I went back to the drugstore area and picked up the $20 eyewash I needed, applying the $10 in Extra Bucks to pay for that.
- If you forget your card, give the clerk your phone number and your transaction will be credited.
- Check the fliers as you go in to see if there is anything you need.
Why would anyone need as many tubes of toothpaste, toothbrushes, shampoo and other items you can get free if you're a savvy Drugstore Game player? MSN Money's Donna Freedman, who is, collects those items to give to charities.
Do you play the Drugstore Game? If so, what are some of your best deals and strategies? Or do you find the rewards programs more trouble than they're worth?

I think they are great Jeans and I Have been purchasing them for years, Love the Fit and also the 100% Guarantee on All Items from The Sportsman's Guide!
i had to return the jeans. i wear size 44. the jeans sent were about 40. that's a problem when cheap jeans are made in an asian country---they don't seem to know the numerical sizes for us here----
wish they were straight legged as i have stated before. relaxed is not for me. they remind me of pants you see around the butts of certain aged people. other than that they are fine.
Excellent! These jeans are highly satisfactory.
Over the years, we have had wonderful experiences with Sportsmans Guide. Recently we received a pair of jeans which were larger than the marked size by 2.5" in the waist. No problem, just call and a return label was sent and the package is now in the mail with our request for the next size down. Have been wearing these jeans for years and they wear very well.

A police standoff had neighbors on edge in New Market Friday morning in the subdivision behind the Grace Point Baptist Church on Winchester Road in Riverton.
Authorities said a woman in her 40s or 50s had a gun, and she called 911 around 9 a.m. saying she was going to kill herself.
SWAT teams arrived, and a negotiator talked with the woman for about an hour.
Several homes in the area
had to be evacuated and the preschool at the church a few
blocks away was also placed on lockdown.
Authorities said at one
point the woman walked outside her home before returning inside.
They said her husband also
helped talk her into putting the gun down and going with deputies.
"We have the
resources now that we can correct this in a different manner. We can bring our SWAT
team, our negotiators, we can bring everyone now. Years ago we didn't have the
ability and resources to conduct these calls like this," said Sgt. Brian
Chaffin with Madison County Sheriff's Office.
The woman eventually put down the weapon and surrendered.
She was taken into custody, but no charges have been filed against her at this time.

Extra-thick Drainage/Anti-fatigue Mats - QTY:1 - 3VGH9
You wouldn`t find many industrial settings that didn`t advocate the use of anti-fatigue mats. The opposite is true for most home shops, however. Why? Our best guess is most woodworkers are a hardy bunch (that and they probably don`t like having to buy a mat that may or may not be the right size for their existing space). Here`s the answer. This extra-thick mat comes in 3 ft. by 3 ft. squares so you can customize it to your space and it`s 5/8" thick for comfort. Give your feet a reason to be as happy as your hands are while you`re working on your project (and stay on the job longer as well)! Drainage holes are 1" dia. Imported.

Lady Antebellum sets secret show in NYC
Lady Antebellum will celebrate the release of its new "Golden" album with a secret show at the McKittrick Hotel in Manhattan on May 7. Proceeds will benefit Musicians on Call.
