"Our challenge isn't that we're running out of energy. It's that we're tapped into the wrong source—the small, finite one that we're depleting," writes computer scientist, Ramez Naam in his book The Infinite Resource, a refreshingly thorough roadmap of solutions to our energy and climate crisis.
"We live on a planet that is a mostly closed system for raw materials… But the earth is not a closed system for energy. We have a huge and continual influx of energy," Naam explains. At the current rate, the world uses seventeen terawatts of power a day; the sun strikes the earth with as much power in only nine seconds.
While media saturates us with the doom and gloom of our unsustainable raw material-powered society, Naam is geared toward the action phase, outlining a solid, supercharged course. The Infinite Resource comprehensively offers the facts of our crisis, emphasizes its criticality, and moves along toward crafty innovation ideas, encouraging the employment of our most powerful resource: our minds. "We can, as it turns out, make choices about the structure of our societies that affect the pace of innovation," he writes, citing examples throughout human history of overcoming crisis with brainpower.
The Infinite Resource illustrates how the cost per kilowatt of alternative energies deterred tapping into the methods in the past, but shows how wind is now competitive with the wholesale prices of coal and natural gas. Solar is experiencing the rapid learning curve in manufacturing efficiency necessary in making it a competitively affordable alternative.
Further alternatives include mining the air and using genes found in the gut flora of termites to break down cellulose. He tackles ideas of carbon taxes, fixing our markets to properly account for the value of the commons, investing to fund long-range innovation, embracing technologies that improve our lives and the planet, and empowering all humans educationally to turn them into assets to produce ideas for the betterment of society.
Naam closes with a picture of the world circa 2100 on the track that he proposes, not a world struggling toward survival, but a world with abundance to meet the needs of its inhabitants. A world still visibly healing its wounds, but a world with lessons learned.
Nostalgia for a legendary pencil no longer in production paves the way for its return.
For fans of the vintage
Blackwing 602 pencil produced by Eberhard Faber from 1934 to 1998, a great pencil is hard to find.
Made legendary by John Steinbeck, Stephen Sondheim, and
Looney Tunes animator Chuck Jones, the Blackwing 602 featured smooth, dark lines
and was known for its resilience. But in 1998, Eberhard Faber decided to cease
production of the fabled writing utensil, forcing its cult following to pay as much as $40 for single, unsharpened examples on eBay.
The good news for Blackwing fanatics is that it's back,
albeit under a slightly different name. As Sam
Scott reports in the January/February 2013 issue of Stanford, the Palomino Blackwing 602 produced by California Cedar
Products Co. in Stockton, Calif., has earned recognition from
enthusiasts as the second coming of the Blackwing. While it's just an article
about pencils, Scott's piece about the resurrection of the Blackwing 602 is a
fascinating look into how nostalgia still has value in our quickly changing
Every day, new books arrive in the offices of Utne Reader. It would be impossible to review all of them, but a shame to leave many hidden on the shelves. In "Bookmarked," we link to excerpts from some of our favorites, hoping they'll inspire a trip to your local library or bookstore. Enjoy!
Mary Paterson was forty years old when her father died and felt suddenly
destabilized and adrift by the loss. Paterson's response to this life
crisis was to embark on a pilgrimage to Plum Village, the retreat of
Nobel Prize-nominated Buddhist monk, Thich Nhat Hanh. The Monks and Me (Hampton
Roads Publishing, 2012) chronicles her 40-day journey arriving at the
conclusion that it is important to always find a home within ourselves.
Mindful breathing and remembering The Four Noble Truths helps Paterson
find peace among distractions in this excerpt taken from the introduction.
Ana T. Forrest, creator of Forrest Yoga, says the key to self-actualization is to understand your fear and then hunt it down. It's not about killing fear but becoming its ally—taking its power. Forrest's book, Fierce Medicine: Breakthrough Practices to Heal the Body and Ignite the Spirit (HarperOne, 2012), chronicles her transformation from an abusive childhood to her position as a national leader in emotional healing through Yoga. In this excerpt from chapter one, "Stalking Fear," she tells of how to get past one of the biggest blocks to happiness through self-study and training—how to go from victim of fear to its attacker.
Tammy Strobel lives with her husband in 128 square feet. And she wouldn't have it any other way. After years of living with high stress and high debts, the pair changed their attitude toward the stuff in their lives, deciding to dramatically cut the clutter. Strobel blogged about the lifestyle changes and found a huge, receptive audience. You Can Buy Happiness (and It's Cheap): How One Woman Radically Simplified Her Life and How You Can Too (New World Library, 2012) is her "biographical manifesto," a combination of her story and advice on how to join the simplicity movement.

Arctic Alaska has quickly become the most contested land in recent U.S. history. It's home to vast natural resources and a precariously balanced—and highly threatened—ecosystem. In this excerpt from the collection Arctic Voices (Seven Stories Press, 2012), writer Nancy Lord gives an account of a gathering of Yup'ik Elders facing the troubles of thinning ice in the Bering Sea.
In the late 1970s, the residents of St. Louis, Michigan, found their community in the middle of a Superfund site—an area of land and water deeply contaminated by Velsicol (formerly Michigan) Chemical. Years later, with the cleanup largely failing, a citizen taskforce took on responsibilities of rebuilding. In Civic Empowerment in an Age of Corporate Greed (Michigan State University Press, 2012), professor Edward C. Lorenz evaluates several case studies in community development—perhaps the solution to rising, damaging corporate irresponsibility. In this excerpt from the book's introduction, Lorenz begins the argument that communities are the agents of civic reform.

The increasing trend of monolithic companies taking over large shares
of industry has created a "financialization-stagnation trap" that's
negatively affecting economies across the world, particularly in the
Global South. That's John Bellamy Foster and Robert W. McChesney's
argument in The Endless Crisis: How Monopoly-Finance Capital Produces Stagnation and Upheaval from the USA to China
(Monthly Review Press, 2012). In this excerpt from the book's introduction, Foster and McChesney explain how understanding the rise of
financialization stagnation is essential to understanding global class
Millions of Americans are drawn to antiques and flea-market culture,
whether as participants or as viewers of the perennially popular Antiques Roadshow or the recent hit American Pickers. This world has the air of a lottery: a $20 purchase might net you four, five or six figures. But as Killer Stuff and Tons of Money (Penguin
Books, 2011) illustrates, you've got to know your history to find those
hidden gems. Author Maureen Stanton shadows charismatic autodidact Curt
Avery, a master dealer, to flea markets, auctions and high-end antiques
shows—and discovers a true behind-the-scenes look that reveals the deep
knowledge and obsessive passion necessary to earn a living selling old
objects. Through the eyes of Curt Avery, learn how objects' histories
and aesthetics unfold in the flea market world in this excerpt taken
from Chapter 1, "Opium Bottles and Knuckleheads."
Teaching in the Terrordome (University
of Missouri Press, 2012) tells the story of how Heather Kirn Lanier
joined Teach For America, a program that thrusts eager but inexperienced
college graduates into America's most impoverished areas to teach,
asking them to do whatever is necessary to catch their disadvantaged
kids up to the rest of the nation. Teaching at Southwestern High School,
a.k.a. "The Terrordome," in West Baltimore, Lanier had to overcome
obstacles such as a disintegrating building, suspicious colleagues and
even violent actions from the students. Despite shining statistics
presented by the organization, here is a more common story of "Teaching
For America," written with thoughtful complexity, a poet's eye and an
engaging voice. Read about Lanier's first impressions of West Baltimore
and the school she would be teaching at in this excerpt taken from
Chapter 1, "The School Beside the Cemetery."
Making Myself at Home in a Nursing Home (Vanderbilt
University Press, 2012) by Sandra Gaffney is the personal account of
the author's long-term care in a nursing home after being diagnosed with
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig's
disease. Over 16 years, Sandra lived in nursing homes in Florida,
Virginia and Minnesota. During this time she became an acute observer
and strategist about how to "live a good life" and navigate day-to-day
issues such as how to furnish the room, talk to staff and understand
nursing home culture. Read Chapter 1,
"About Myself."
During the last two weeks of the Federal Convention of 1787,
delegates found themselves perplexed by, in the words of James Madison,
"a point of great importance" — who should rule over a newly created
nation? In Mr. President: How and Why the Founders Created a Chief Executive (Alfred
A. Knopf, 2012), Ray Raphael recreates the formation of the executive
office, giving those interested in political history a narrative insight
into the decisions behind the creation of American presidential power.
In this excerpt from the book's prologue, Raphael sets the tense and
questioning scene.

In 2000, Greg Palast exposed how Katherine Harris removed thousands
of innocent Black citizens from voter rolls as "felons." It was Palast
for Rolling Stone, with co-author Bobby Kennedy, who uncovered more
ballot-bending trickery—from inane ID laws to "caging" of absentee
ballots that earned the thanks of the US Civil Rights Commission. Now,
in Billionaires & Ballot Bandits (Seven
Stories Press, 2012), Palast tells two stories: First, the 9 ways over
5.9 million votes can be stolen in November 2012—unless the ballot
bandits are stopped. And, second, how billionaire PAC-men purchase
Congress and the White House through a mudslide of money. Discover the
dirty strategies that discourage Hispanic voter registration in this
excerpt taken from Chapter 26, "Block the Vote."
Reflecting on a sensational, Depression-era murder trial, Killing the Poormaster
(Lawrence Hill Books, 2012) by Holly Metz chronicles the events that
lead up to—and follow—the death of Harry Barck, a poormaster who was
granted the authority to decide who would and would not receive public
aid in Hoboken, New Jersey. The conditions that plagued the American
people during the Great Depression—massive unemployment, endemic poverty
and the inadequacy of public assistance—still trouble our world today.
Find out how the conditions of unemployment during the Great Depression,
from denied bread tickets to brutal abuse from corrupted officials,
lead the American people to their last straw. Read an excerpt taken from
Chapter 1, "Waiting for Nothing."

Isuzu Amigo Parts
In 1910 the foundations of the Isuzu Motors Limited were being laid in Tokyo, Japan. Tokyo Ishikawajima Shipbuilding and Engineering and Tokyo Gas and Electric Industrial Company contacted Wolseley automobiles of England to manufacture said vehicles in Japan. In 1922 the company built its first automobile. Soon after that they constructed the first prototype bus in Japan and began research on diesel engines, a product that Isuzu is famous for. In 1949 the company changed its name to Isuzu, the name of a Japanese river. It is said that Isuzu means 'fifty bells pealing in harmony and celebration.' Isuzu is best known for light and heavy duty trucks powered by their advanced diesel engines. Isuzu has since joined with General Motors to distribute vehicles through the Isuzu, GMC, and Chevrolet dealerships, increasing the prevalence of Isuzu trucks on the road today. Although one of the foremost suppliers of heavy duty trucks in the world, Isuzu also makes passenger SUV's and trucks as well as compact cars. Renowned for improving diesel engine technology and creating durable automobiles that can traverse the terrain of the arctic circle, Isuzu flies under the radar as one of the more innovative companies around today.

Also, Isuzu passenger vehicles are becoming more popular due to their low price tag and reliability. Popular models include the Isuzu Rodeo, Isuzu Axiom, Isuzu Trooper, and Isuzu Ascender. Although still selling cars, Isuzu has moved its focus from creating automobiles toward collaborative engineering products with Toyota and GMC. The areas of development are based around diesel engines, including fuel economy and emissions controls. Innovative and affordable, Isuzu vehicles are often overlooked but are highly prized by those who drive them.

Glide to your desk on ergonomically-designed swivel chairs, conduct meetings in executive office chairs, invite staff members to use leather conference chairs, and seat your clients on comfortable guest chairs. Now you can sit back, relax, and enjoy your office.
Hard-working employees and executives deserve to sit in comfortable office chairs. Comfort begins with great padding and contours, and it doesn't end when the five o'clock whistle blows. Ergonomic office chairs will serve you well long after you have left your place of employment.
Why should I buy an ergonomic office chair?
If one sits in an uncomfortable or inappropriately-adjusted office chair, they can experience back and knee pain, both in and out of the office. However, when you sit properly throughout the workday, you avoid the back, neck and knee problems that plague so many professionals. Seating which promotes correct posture also increases productivity and minimizes the distractions of aches and pains. The less one is distracted by back and knee pain, the more one can accomplish throughout the workday and beyond. Everyone deserves go home without physical pain at the end of long workdays, whether you are a company president, school principal or administrative assistant.
What makes a chair ergonomic?
There are a few different design elements that characterize a swivel chair as ergonomic. It should have an adjustable backrest, tilt and arms. This will enable professionals to set the back and armrest at the perfect height for their bodies. Because every person is built differently, ideal back and arm heights vary. Pneumatic height adjustment is critical as well. Together with an adjustable tilt angle, it enables one to modify task chair proportions so feet are planted flat on the ground and knees are at the appropriate angle.
Do I need a chair with lumbar support?
In addition to the previously mentioned ergonomic design elements, some believe that contoured lumbar support is critical for supporting the lower back and avoiding muscle pain. Great lumbar support is provided by a contoured extrusion that lends support to your natural spine curve. It is particularly beneficial for those who spend many hours working at a computer. Seats with good lumbar support keep the back properly aligned, which prevents muscle stress and lower-back injuries. However, while some believe this chair design element is essential, others say that a more basic design provides greater comfort and support.
What kinds of office chairs are there?
Office chair design has many variations so it's a good idea to familiarize yourself with the options before you make a purchase for your school principal's office or reception area. One element that varies is whether there are armrests or not. While you might think that armrests are always preferable, there are quite a few benefits to armless task chairs. If you have a low desk upon which you generally rest your elbows, or a pullout keyboard tray, the armless option is a great choice. A keyboard tray serves the same ergonomic function as armrests, so if your desk has one, you can purchase an armless model without having to compromise on comfort or health. Swivel chairs without arms also save money and won't get in the way when you want to stand up and move around. You don't necessarily have to purchase a model that is designated as armless to enjoy the benefits of this design feature. Most task chairs have removable armrests which allow you to transform any model into an armless one.
Office chair upholstery comes in a variety of colors and materials. Fabric-upholstered seating enables you to add color and style to your work space, and often features cushy foam padding. Alternatively, mesh seating options are more breathable and flexible. They allow maximum air circulation and prevent you from getting hot and sweaty. Leather office chairs will give any workplace a luxurious professional appeal. The classic design of dark leather projects a high-class image that is sure to impress clients. If you are on a tight budget but like the look of leather upholstery, vinyl is a more budget-friendly alternative. Dark vinyl creates the visual appeal of leather at a significant price reduction. Vinyl office chairs are great money savers, and are very easy to clean.
There are many benefits to purchasing a mobile office chair. Rolling casters make it easy to slide from one side of a U-desk to the other, or roll back and reach auxiliary storage in nearby file cabinets, bookshelves or credenzas. When you are not seated, rolling casters simplify transport, whether you are moving chairs into storage or relocating to a new space. However, if you are planning on remaining seated in one place, you may choose a stationary seating option. For those who remain in one position throughout the workday, models without casters eliminate the inconvenience of chairs that slide around and move unintentionally.
With so many design features and style variations, make sure to select the executive office chair that appeals to you. Choose a luxurious style to enhance your personal workspace or a modern office chair to update your school office. You can even coordinate office chair upholstery to match the color scheme in your workspace. The right executive chair will exude professionalism and confidence, projecting dependability, reliability and consistency.
Choosing the right office chair is simply a matter of exploring all of the options and deciding which features appeal to you. There are high-quality task chairs to suit any budget. Swivel chairs with casters are versatile, convenient and available in a range of prices. When you purchase an office chair from Hertz Furniture, you get the benefits of low prices as well as a complementary extended warranty.

Living Well with Dementia - Dementia Awareness Week 19 - 25 May
Tuesday, 14 May 2013
To mark Dementia Awareness Week (19 - 25 May), Hampshire County Council is holding a number of events to promote greater understanding of the condition, which mainly affects older people.
Dementia Awareness Week is the Alzheimer's Society's annual flagship awareness-raising campaign and this year's theme is 'talking'.
The events are being co-ordinated by Andover Mind, who are commissioned by Hampshire County Council to deliver the new Hampshire-wide Dementia Friendly Communities project, as well as provide services for people with dementia and their carers.
Around one quarter of the population of Hampshire is likely to be over the age of 60 by 2026 with the largest growth being in the number of people aged 85 and over. One in six people over the age of 80 have dementia but currently only a third to a half of older people with dementia receive a diagnosis. People can, and do, live well with dementia and early diagnosis can improve a person's quality of life and help them to maintain independence for longer.

The new Dementia Friendly Communities project, commissioned by Hampshire County Council and delivered by Andover Mind aims to create an engaged community, enthusiastic about and supportive of people with dementia. The project will involve and empower people with dementia and their carers, giving them a role in developing communities which enable them to 'live well' with dementia.
Other ways the County Council supports work to help people with dementia and their carers is through grants to voluntary organisations.

Don't forget Thursday's Elmbrook School Board candidate forum, 7pm
A reader forwarded me the following announcement from the Elmbrook School District regarding the coming candidate forum. (Parents of Elmbrook School students receive these monthly events notices, but residents without children in the district do not.)
Last year, I attended the forum even though each candidate ran unopposed. I found it was still an good opportunity to get a feel for the candidates. This year we have three candidates running for each open seat. The forum on Thursday should help you to get a better idea of where each stands on the issues facing the Elmbrook School District, such as how to solve the challenge of increasing costs without increasing taxes. The primary is coming up fast: Feb. 17th.
UPDATES Stop the Senate socialist spending "stimulus" bill
UPDATES at bottom of post.
It is easy for conservatives to become discouraged. What looked like glimmer of hope last week, with all of the House Republicans and 11 Blue-Dog Democrats soundly rejecting the pork-filled "stimulus" bill in the House, quickly faded on Monday.
Digital TV, The Ant and Grasshopper, & The Titanic
If Americans cannot be responsible for making sure their TVs work come Feb. 17th, by getting the digital conversion box, we are hopeless.
A good parent knows they must let their children fail at some things in order to teach them responsibility. The trick is to do it with things that really don't matter. Things that don't have life-long consequences. Isn't this TV conversion a perfect way to teach responsibility?
46 of 50 states could file bankruptcy?

ND, WY, MT and WV are the only States not facing budget deficits.
There is a high chance a majority of the States within the United States of America could file for Chapter 9 bankruptcy. There are currently 46 states with high budget deficits, Arizona being one of them.
In fact, Jan Brewer <http://www.governor.state.az.us/>, the newly appointed Governor of Arizona has a major crisis on her hands, one that Arizona and national media isn't covering. The alarming news is the State of Arizona has 90 to 120 days before they completely run out of money. After that, all bills and tax refunds owed to the citizens will go unpaid.
Before Janet Napolitano <http://www.dhs.gov/index.shtm
|> left for her new Homeland secretary position, she had a stand-off with Arizona Treasurer Dean Martin<http://www.aztreasury.gov/>. The AZ Treasurer forewarned Napolitano about Arizona's financial crisis, but she refused to heed his words.
With neighboring California on the verge of bankruptcy this year, many States will follow in their steps.
Many States are already scurrying to cut unwanted costs, cut State-funded programs, raise taxes, not issue tax refunds to their citizens, and borrow money just to survive in 2009. Unfortunately, many banks - the same banks the Fed bailed out - are refusing to loan money to the States and their Treasury agencies.
The article, State Budget Troubles Worsen <http://www.cbpp.org/9-8-08sfp.htm>, at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities <http://www.cbpp.org/> website is an excellent piece to read. It shows where each State currently stands in these challenging economic times, and you see 46 of the 50 States are clearly in the financial red.
It's very possible you'll see the end of the United States as we know it. If the Fed doesn't bailout the States when their cash dries up and the banks don't loan them money, then our States will be left in financial ruin. This would be a tragic and unprecedented event never experienced in the United States.
No State has ever filed bankruptcy, but it could be coming to a State near you this year.
We are on the brink of something far worse than the Great Depression.

I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.

Elmbrook School Board candidate forum: first impressions
I did make it to the Elmbrook School Board candidate forum last night, but I was about 3 minutes late. There were about 30 people in the audience, 2 of which were board members Bob Zieggler and Tom Gehl. (There may have been others present, but I did not see them.)
As I found a seat, a woman was already speaking at a podium. (I later found out she was Dorothy Smaglick, the President of the Elmbrook Education Foundation and is part of the Parent Leadership Council, the sponsor of the forum). I thought the speaker was a candidate giving her opening statement. As she spoke, I found she was reading a statement for candidate Katie Lemcke, who could not be at the forum. Dorothy Smaglick was explaining something about a planned family activity conflicting with the forum time, and so she [Katie Lemcke] could not attend. There was some mention of meeting with some Disney characters? Did I hear that right? You will have to watch the cable broadcast to hear the explanation.

How much is your life worth? Should govt. decide?
We already do this to a certain extent with Medicare. The rule of thumb is that if Medicare does not cover it, a retirees supplemental plan won't cover it either. The government health insurance provider decides. They also decide the dollar amount they will pay for a procedure. This is why some doctors or dentists don't want to take Medicare/Medicaid patients; their costs are not covered. If they do take these type patients, the extra costs are passed onto those with health insurance. That is one reason health insurance rates are so high.
Was that an Obama Town Hall or "Queen for a Day"?
President Obama was out and about promoting his "stimulus" package earlier this week. The audio clips I heard of the Town Hall meeting Obama held on Tuesday in Fort Myers, Florida, however, seemed bizarre to me. It certainly was not very presidential.

Dear American Energy Supporter,
Last week, over 6,500 of you responded to our call to send a message to President Obama that you want access to more of America's energy resources. Thank you for making this a great success so far.
But we can't stop now! Just last week President Obama pulled back some oil and gas leases that could have quickly produced American energy. We can't let that happen with our offshore energy resources.
This week we have a goal of reaching 10,000 comments for the Administration. But we can only meet this goal with your help. If you have already used our website to send comments to MMS, thank you! But we still need your help. Please forward this email to your friends and family.
If you haven't sent a comment to MMS, join the fight and tell President Obama we need greater access to American's abundant energy resources.
We can't allow the Administration to restrict our access to our energy resources!

Yes, it is true. The Conference Committee worked at lightening speed to
rush cram their $789 billion "stimulus" bill down our throats. Isn't it amazing how quickly they can do things when it is for something they want? The next step is to send it back to the House and Senate for a vote.

Economy improving? Elmbrook's bonding and 1% sales increase
Elmbrook schools was able to garner a favorable bond rate for the remaining portion of their $62mil referendum this week.
That was good news, because in the recent past, they were not able to do so. Taxpayers are still on the hook for $???, but at least it is within the estimated interest rates.
Happy Birthday President Lincoln
Today is the 200th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's birth. Most Americans have a warm spot in their heart for Lincoln. I know I do. For me, he epitomizes the American dream: that anyone can succeed in this country, even a man from very humble roots. I admire him for his honesty, gentle spirit, and courage. He was a godly man.

Sagging economy makes U.S. less attractive to illegals
This may be the only silver lining moment in our failing economy: As U.S. Job Opportunities Fade, More Mexicans Look Homeward:
By MIRIAM JORDAN
LOS ANGELES -- During a decade in the U.S., Mexican immigrant Linex Rivera gave birth to three daughters, whose American citizenship offered her hope of staying in the land of opportunity. But with job prospects drying up for her husband, Ms. Rivera last week joined a phalanx of compatriots at the Mexican consulate in Los Angeles inquiring about obtaining Mexican citizenship for their children.

CATO.org Cato Institute, Randal O'Toole spoke on Jay Weber today about Doyle's pet project: "High" speed rail. Do listen to the podcast at around 9:15. It was very enlightening. In a nutshell, High speed rail does not work in France, Italy or Japan. It requires a huge input of taxpayer money. It pollutes and is innefficient use of fuel and dollars.
Painstaking care vs. rushing it through
If you have ever studied early American history, you know the painstaking care our founding fathers took in crafting every document. The Declaration, The Constitution, and The Bill of Rights were not just something a few guys threw together without thought.

Obama Planning to Slash Deficit, Despite Stimulus Spending
WASHINGTON — After a string of costly bailout and stimulus measures, President Obama will set a goal this week to cut the annual deficit at least in half by the end of his term, administration officials said. The reduction would come in large part through Iraq troop withdrawals and higher taxes on the wealthy.

Tonight the Elmbrook School Board will hear a presentation on the petition from 65 households "FOR DETACHMENT FROM SCHOOL DISTRICT OF WAUKESHA TO ELMBROOK SCHOOL DISTRICT"
Will Real ID really be required by 2014?
Our dear Governor Doyle must not think so, or he would be really using that additional $10 per driver's license renewal fee for the purpose it was created: to comply with the Real ID law. Instead, he is using it to fund his budget. Front and center today from the Journal Sentinel, Fees collected, but Doyle budget would put off Real ID:(My emphasis)
Gov. Jim Doyle's proposed budget puts no money toward complying with a federal anti-terrorism law, even though the state has been collecting $10 per driver's license to do so for over a year.

This is a GREAT wig! My hairdresser was the only one who knew it was a wig! She was amazed that I ordered it, sight unseen, from a catalog and it was so close to my own hair color. I got it in SF 51/60 and as it is grayer on top and to the front, like my own hair, it gradually blends to a darker color in the back down to my neckline. My only problem is that the bangs are a bit too long. If I place it further back on my head it feels like it will come off, but the gel head band that came today seems to help with that. I do wish a "How to" brochure/booklet came with each wig to show a first time wig owner how to put it on properly. Also, including a NEW catalog with each order would be great! I have others ask if I had an extra catalog as they were interested in ordering one as well. Besides, mine has gotten very worn with use, and I could use a new one. I would probably order another wig in this color, but maybe a style with a little wave in it for dress-up purposes, like I had used a curling iron. I would use this one for just going shopping, but to church, a slightly curved style would be nice. For my first wig purchase, this one has done fine. Is much easier than having to try to match a hat to every outfit.

Your shipping is fine. I always receive my wigs in a timely manner and, until now, the wigs I have received have been fine.HOWEVER, both of these wigs were not wearable. My stylist, who has shaped all of my wigs (about 18 of them I think) was unable to make either wig look decent. He said the sewing of the fibers was off and he could not make these wigs look good enough for me to wear. He said all of my other wigs from Paula Young were fine but that these were not sewn right. I e-mailed customer service about them but did not receive any reply or satisfaction. I advised them that these wigs were not wearable and I would probably just throw them away as I like to look nice even when I am just at home. (This was a big waste of money not only for the wigs but also for the $50 I spent getting them styled.)I recently ordered two different wigs from Paula Young and have hope that these will be of the same quality I have received before. If not, this will be my last purchase from Paula Young.

By Teacher
This last particular wig seems to be fine right now. I have several wigs in this style as I need short hair and the SF51/60 matches my hair color perfectly as it darkens in the back toward the bottom as mine does. The issues I have had are with this style only as I have ordered several, was that the fibers would come out after washing[as directed] leaving wide areas of white base showing. There has been an area over 1/4" wide and go from crown to the ear tab. I only get the Sheer styles as I like the 100% hand tied wigs best. This last one has so far shown to be a better quality than the first 2 or 3 I bought. I will continue buying this style as I really like it and it looks quite natural. Paula Young has been very good about the returns for the product issues. Somehow, tho, one of my returns was never received and as I used the label provided, I have no way to prove I even sent them[there were 3 wigs in the box] back. Was a costly mistake on my part. I will only buy this style from now on and will send any shipment I have to return by UPS as collecting from the USPS for insured items is like pulling teeth! I would recommend this to anybody who likes short hair. I get compliments all the time when I wear my wigs. My 18 yr. old grandson said, "I like your hair, Gramms! It's cool!" so think that is about as good an endorsement as I could ask for! (:

This was a nice cool wig to wear. Lookes nice , but I couldn't seem to keep it styled on top. It keeps falling flat and all forward. Also a tiny bit large for my. head. But I will wear it and enjoy it while my hair grows out. It was delivered right on time.

As a new practicing instructional designer, I was astonished at the quantity and breadth of writing that was required in this field. Over the years, I've needed to write on-screen text, audio scripts, video scripts, training manuals, marketing copy, help documentation and technical explanations. Along the way, I've filled in my education gaps through various classes, books and other sources.
So I was pleased to come across Roy's Writing Tools, a podcast in iTunes University. It features Roy Peter Clark, author of Writing Tools: 50 Essential Strategies for Every Writer, as he reads and discusses key points to improve writing. Here I've selected some of Clark's best tips that are applicable to learning experience designers. In some cases, I've modified his tips to apply to our type of work.
Order words for emphasis
Order your words with awareness. Place emphatic words either at the start or end of a sentence or paragraph. If at the end, the period acts as a stop sign—a pause—which magnifies the preceding word. In a paragraph, final words adjoin white space, giving the preceding words greater strength.
Weak example: The faint of heart are not well-suited for project management.
Strong example: Project management is not for the faint of heart.
Use adverbs only when they change the meaning of a verb
Adverbs are meant to enhance a verb, yet writers often select adverbs that are redundant with the verb. For example, in the following phrases, the adverb is redundant to the meaning of the verb it modifies: smiling happily, effortlessly easy, astonishingly amazed. Removing the redundant adverb makes a sentence shorter, stronger and to the point. This is my favorite tip because it's a quick way to transform weak writing into powerful writing.
Weak example: She smiled happily. (We assume someone is happy when they smile.)
Strong example: She smiled sadly. (Now this is intriguing.)
Set the tempo with varied sentence lengths
Create a tempo through the purposeful use of long and short sentences. Use long sentences to establish a flow and to move things forward. Use short sentences to simplify complex explanations or to create suspense in a scenario. Let sentence length match the content and your purpose.
Go light on the "ing" form of verbs
Use the simple present or past form of verbs rather than the "ing" form. According to Clark, "ing" can weaken a verb for two reasons. First, it adds an additional syllable to the verb and secondly, a series of verbs ending with "ing" begin to sound alike. Verbs without "ing" demonstrate their unique distinctive form.
Weak example: Getting to the company retreat involved hiking, rowing, swimming and carrying a heavy pack.
Strong example: To get to the company retreat, we hiked, rowed, swam and carried a heavy pack.
Use repetition to link parts
Repeating key words and phrases provides structure to the written and spoken word. Purposeful repetition creates a rhythm, giving emphasis when you are making a point or stressing a theme. It's difficult to write a paragraph on repetition without repeating the word too often.
But give important words their space
Isn't there always a qualifier? Don't repeat key words unless you're looking for the effect discussed above. Recognize the difference between intended and unintended repetition. When you edit, take out key words that are repeated in the same sentence or paragraph, because important words need space to show their impact. Seek elegant variation in your writing.
Make your writing concise
In a very relevant segment, Clark recommends that you prune writing by cutting big, then small. This refers to cutting out passages that do not support your focus. This is a key tip for instructional writing where designers are often pressured to add extraneous content to please SMEs or clients. Remove content inserted only to please someone else.
Good writers read for both form and content
Don't overlook how much you can learn from analysis and study of different genres of writing. Clark notes that we can learn to write better captions by reading old magazines, to explain clearly by reading cookbooks, to create intriguing headlines from tabloids and to craft dramatic scenes by reading comics. All of these are skills that learning experience designers might be expected to produce.
Like other sophisticated and nuanced skills, writing is an infinite and ongoing process. Similar to visual design, it's impossible to reach the final goal. All we can do is continually work at it with increased knowledge and awareness.

Pit Boss DVD
- Additional Details
- Format: DVD
- Number of Discs: 1
The Pit Boss DVD stars Shorty Rossi, a former actor, entertainment guru and pit bull rescuer with lofty ideals, a tough attitude and an entertainment industry rolodex to help his cause. And he gathered together three friends/employees Ronald, Ashley and Sebastian to take on the gargantuan task of rescuing, rehabbing and training the most misunderstood of dogs pit bulls. In the Pit Boss video, Shorty, a workaholic with a devilish sense of humor and quick temper, balances two jobs running Shortywood Productions, a Hollywood talent management company for little people, as well as Shorty Rescue, his pit bull rescue. Shorty, aptly named, along with his three cohorts happen to be little people who have the biggest hearts for these adorable dogs who often are bigger than they are. The Pit Boss show DVD comes from the producers of "Millionaire Matchmaker" and "Blowout," who created a docu-soap with Pit Boss that follows the everyday drama and joy of these buddies and business partners who hit the streets of Los Angeles in their fight to overcome stereotypes for themselves and the pit bulls they save.
Buy the Pit Boss DVD to find out how Shorty Rossi and his crew of little people overcome many obstacles to save pit bulls from a tragic fate.

Simply mention their names and fans are highly captivated, flocking to catch a hopeful glimpse of one of the most electrifying performances in the world. The man who was credited with starting the Southern University Marching Band was T. Leroy Davis. His assistants were Milton Cooper, Assistant Band Director and Arranger and James A. Cato, Assistant Band Director and Choreographer. Davis served as the band director from 1947 to 1964. He organized the Southern University Band Festival and Band Day. He was nationally known for his achievements in the areas of bands as a scholar, adjudicator, clinician, arranger and conductor. In 1957 the band was just a group of students that he developed into an impressive band. The band was very proper and sedate. They marched traditional, which was the style at that time. He also had a very fine concert band which performed each semester along with the marching band. In 1964 the Southern University Band, better known as "The Marching Counts of Sound" proved its superiority in many half-time performances during that school year. The Southern Belle Ballet Corps had begun its second season with the band. The lovely lasses coordinated dances to the arrangements played by the band. The 130-member band gained fame and success and won a place among the best bands of the land. Davis taught the majority of African-American band directors in Louisiana. Davis retired from Southern in May 1987 and was awarded the title of Professor Emeritus in May 1989 in recognition of forty years of service to Southern. On October 25, 1992 Davis passed away at the age of 76. The Southern University Marching Band, after the retirement of Leroy Davis hired Ludwig Freeman as its new director and James Alvin Cato as the assistant director in 1965 to 1969. The Southern University Band proved itself to be the best in the land during its "superior" performances through-out the year. Freeman, proved his capable
