Going to Tahoe? Or elsewhere to the snow?
Then here's some safety tips from CHP Officer Pete Mann of the Truckee office to help you avoid ending up like the driver in the photo:
1. Give yourself plenty of time. Don't rush when you're driving on snow or ice. Conditions can change suddenly in the Sierra during winter, turning a three-hour trip to 10 hours.
"Plan for the unexpected," Mann says.
2.If you haven't put on chains before or not on the vehicle you're using, practice at home where it's warmer and you're not dealing with snow and ice.
3. Bring extra clothing, water, food — "something like Cliff Bars will give you energy" — and appropriate footwear.
"I've seen people putting on chains in their flip-flops," Mann says.
When driving on snowy or icy roads, he says drivers need to go easy on the gas to avoid spinning and easy on the brakes to avoid sliding and not make hard, jerky steering moves.
For chains, Mann says drivers are required to carry them when driving in winterized areas, regardless of the weather.
There are three types of chain-control declarations issued by Caltrans:
–R1: Chains, traction devices or snow tires are required on the drive axle of all vehicles, except 4-wheel and all-wheel drive vehicles.
–R2: Chains or traction devices are required on all vehicles, except 4-wheel and all-wheel drive vehicles with snow-tread tires (marked on sidewalls as M/S, M+S or such) on all four wheels.
–R3: Chains or traction devices are required on all vehicles, no exceptions.
Mann says R3 declarations basically don't happen because by the time road conditions become that bad, the highways have been closed for hours.
The speed limit when using chains is 30 mph on Interstate 80 and 25 mph on Highway 50 and other roads, he says.
Mann says the CHP office in Truckee prepares its officers for winter driving by borrowing a large, snow-covered parking lot and sending the officers through various driving challenges to get used to driving on snow and ice.
Most officers carry extra food and water for themselves and in case they come across stranded motorists, he says.
For those going to Tahoe, Mann says residents up there have a request: If you're driving slow and more than five vehicles are following you, pull over when safe to let them pass.

The speed limit when using chains is 30 mph on Interstate 80 and 25 mph on Highway 50 and other roads, he says.
You might be doing 25-30 but the jerk in the SUV is going 50 past you, until he ends up in a ditch down the road… seen it many times.
Tires marked "M+S" (Mud and Snow) are not true snow tires; they are compromise "all season" tires and as such are equally poor in all conditions. True snow tires (those carrying a symbol of a snowflake inside a mountain) not only have a very aggressive tread but also a soft rubber compound that remains soft even at low temperatures.
The real problem is that the typical Californian, like the truck driver in your article, has no idea how to drive in snow and ice. They are their own worst enemy.
This is why they have turnouts–use them if your not use to the conditions or the road

Motorcyclist injured when he lays his bike down
May 3, 2013
News-Register Staff
A motorcyclist was injured Thursday afternoon when he laid his 2004 Harley-Davidson down to avoid rear-ending a vehicle, according to McMinnville police.
Sgt. Tim Symons identified the victim as Steve P. Farley, 60, of 16801 S.W. Masonville Road, McMinnville. He gave this account:
Farley was riding northbound in the 2100 block of N.E. Lafayette Ave. when he took evasive action to avoid crashing into a vehicle that was part of a line of vehicles.
He was transported by McMinnville Fire Department ambulance to the Cascade Steel Rolling Mills property and then flown by a Life Flight helicopter to Oregon Health & Science University in Portland. He was reported in serious condition.
The incident remains under investigation and no citations have been issued. Officers have not had an opportunity to interview Farley, Symons said.

No. 1 Alabama 38, Mississippi State 7
Two teams entered 7-0, but only one emerged unscathed: Alabama crushed visiting Mississippi State to back up its No. 1 ranking. Quarterback AJ McCarron threw for 208 yards and two touchdowns, while T.J. Yeldon (pictured) paced the rushing attack with 84 yards and a score. The 'Bama defense stifled the Bulldogs. Dan Mullen's team didn't score until backup Dak Prescott connected with Robert Johnson in the closing moments of the fourth quarter.

Lion's Gates Restoration Update
After delays in the reconstruction of the Lion's Gates at Fairy Chasm and Lake Drive, work resumed this week with the completion of the foundation work. While not very visible, this work is vital to the long-term stability of the Gates and something that was missing in many places when they were first built. Above ground work is tentatively scheduled to begin the middle of next week, as the foundation material hardens and cures the remainder of this week.
Many people have asked, why did the entire wall have to come down? The answer is quite simple. The walls had deteriorated to the point where within the next year or two, they would have fallen themselves. The walls stood for 98 years with little repair and the time had come for them to be repaired.
McCain ad: blonde women & black Obama; get it?
There was always hope that race and age would not enter into this presidential election. But American politics has slid so far into the pit that it is hopeless to hold out for that. The McCain TV ad that intersperses blonde women celebrities, Britney Spears and Paris Hilton, with black man, Barack Obama, is an obvious attempt to play upon American bigoted fears. The further implication is that "we don't know much about this black man." Put that in the Karl Rove-style excrement pile with the continued hint that Barack Obama is a Moslem like Osama bin Laden, and you have a "winner."
John McCain, gaining strength in the 2000 Republican presidential primaries, was brought down by a gaggingly sick Bush ad, is now stooping to these tactics himself. Another war hero like McCain, John Kerry, was sabotaged by a bold-face lying ad by the fictional Vietnam boat people. While both parties seem to prefer ads that use scare tactics, lies, diversions, and avoid anything about important policies of the candidates, the Republicans and neocons are in a slime class of their own.
Trustee Brennan Resigns from Board - part II
So yesterday I read the email alert for the posting of the agenda for Monday's WFB Trustee meeting. I noticed two items, a "Commendation for Jim Brennan" and "Discussion of vacancy on Board". Putting two and two together, I emailed a village official and got confirmation that indeed, Brennan had resigned July 31st due to health reasons. (Village Spillage wishes Trustee Brennan well.)
Farve and Away
You know, there are few things more divisive than disagreements over politics and religion. I think I've done a pretty good job of addressing tricky issues in the past while keeping my nose out of the fray. So it is with some concern that I jump head in to my next topic. Green Bay Packers football. And believe me,
Barack Obama Solves All Problems in America
Barack Obama is planning a no lose situation. Just like he did in the primary season, he is shifting his positions so that there is very little difference between him and his opponent. This way, we will vote based on personalities. And who has more charisma in this presidential race? We all know the answer to this.
Obama has shifted his plan. That was once solid as a rock on bringing the troops out of Iraq. 16 months-no compromise. This is how what will be. Like it or lump it, it could be just carved in stone. Now his once steadfast position on offshore oil drilling is now changed. Just like his opponent's stance, it is now a good idea. Well, it's not the perfect solution, but the will have to do it anyway. The good news is, there will be enough oil sold by the American companies to lay a hefty windfall profits tax on them. This of course, will finance a tax rebate for all American families. Who could argue with that?
22nd Assembly DEBATE TONIGHT
Just a reminder .. there is a "candidate forum" tonight (Tuesday, August 5) held by the Milwaukee chapter of the League of Women Voters for the 22nd Assembly seat vacated by Sheldon Wasserman. The forum starts at 6:30.
All 4 Democratic candidates will be in attendance: Andy Feldman, Guy Johnson, Sandra Pasch, and Dan Kohl.
22nd District Forum Recap + Video
I attended Tuesday's forum of the four Democratic candidates competing for Sheldon Wasserman's Assembly seat.
First .. I want to strongly thank the League of Women Voters for hosting this event. What a great public service these folks do. I know I sound like a candidate there, but these forums are a tremendous benefit to voters. -- There will be another forum for the Senate candidates, Wasserman and Darling, later in October.
Jesus and the Second Amendment
Exercising His legal rights, Jesus of Nazareth walked into a gun store today to purchase a weapon He planned to conceal in His robe. Claiming there were lots of robbers on the road, especially those horrible Samaritans, Jesus felt He had a right to protect Himself.
Strange? You bet it is! But to listen to conservatives you would think that there is some kind of halo in possessing a gun.
A Very Large 1%
With the most recent news surrounding former presidential candidate John Edwards, we are able to see what a shallow pool of integrity the Democratic Party has offered to us this year in their candidates. Then they expect us to elect one of them, president of the United States. I had numerous times referred to this year as the most open presidential race since 1952. This was supposed to be the year that offered us the best candidates from the largest field. This was supposed to be the year are we could custom make our president from an off the rack world. I have to stop using that analogy because we were shortchanged by both parties.
So John Edwards had a little fling with a filmmaker two years ago. He got a little bored on the campaign trail. Is that a big deal? It must have been, because right away John Edwards began his image rehab. First going on Nightline, and I suspect Larry King, Barbara Walters, and Oprah Winfrey may be next. Bill O'Reilly and Geraldo Rivera will be avoided, of course. And the Chris Matthews show? Who really cares?
To The Batcave!
In the last month I've been repeatedly called a movie snob. Maybe it's because I sold out and stopped hiding my love affair with iPic. Maybe it's because every weekend I don't just read the weekly movie grosses, but every piece of media news and analysis at my hands: EW, the New York Times, aintitcoolnews.com, variety.com. cnn.com. gallifreyone.com, and, of course, USA Today. Or heck, maybe I just think I know more about movies than I do. I definitely spend more time deconstructing and analyzing movies than most. In any event, I find that the most common comparison that I make with respect to what I see is to what came before. My conclusion, like many an old codger, is this: they just don't make them like they used to, do they? I've been mulling this point ever since The Dark Knight became the news-making movie of the summer.
Call me crazy, but I grew up on Adam West. And yes, I know that at 36 years old, I was already watching reruns a decade old when I rushed home after school, but nothing gets me like the BAM! POW! ZAP! of the original series. Adam West was the man. The BAT man. And I loved Cesar Romero's Joker. When I got older I wondered why Romero wouldn't shave his white mustache when he donned the purple suit and white cake makeup, but it only really bothered me in the close-up shots, but no bother. It's all good. I would see in my adulthood the fruits of my love for all things Hollywood. Growing up I was probably one of few people who could recall every actor's performance, including the obscure guest roles. For example, I can't forget Victor Buono's riveting performance as King Tut (a delusion brought onto a museum scholar by a swift knock to the head); Tallulah ("Bewitched") Bankhead's Black Widow; or Milton Berle's Louie the Lilac. I can even name all 3 women to play Catwoman in the show. I guess that makes me a bit of an expert on Batman, and for the sake of this piece, we'll assume I'm right. Snob or not.
Hypocrisy of so-called Evangelicals
Space does not permit me to give you a history of the use of the word "evangelical" in organized religion. Suffice to say, it evolved after its earliest years into a movement that carried a zeal and missionary spirit for the Protestant denominations that proudly put the word into their name [i.e. Evangelical Lutheran Church]. It evolved as a mainstream term used in mainstream Protestantism. In the U.S. it has been usurped by out-of-the mainstream church groups. I can't call them "denominations" because they fit more closely to the individual parish pastor's flavor of showmanship than to a set of beliefs, doctrines, and rubrics established by a national or international church body.
Oh, how angry some "evangelicals" will be for me to frame them that way. But it is basically true, in a summarized version. What today we call mega-churches are beholden to a local group of pastors and members who have rallied around the dynamic of what passes for worship. Some are very good, some are akin to a Disney movie. In recent decades these non-denominational mega-churches and mega-church-wannabes have tried to precipitate out some semblance of theological order and principles that serve people outside the walls of the pretty church auditoriums. They were open to criticism for their showmanship that lacked basic tenets or theological scholarship.
Eliminate County Government
Milwaukee businessman Sheldon Lubar believes that county government should be eliminated.
He's right.
Somebody Needs Toastmasters
Presidential candidate Barack Obama has been referred to as an eloquent speaker. This label has come from both fans and critics alike. When he is in front of the TelePrompTer on the podium, he is at his best. The John McCain camp, often shakes in its boots at the thought of going mano a mano in a forum that would favor this type of set up. However, when he has to speak off-the-cuff, the story is quite different.
Last weekend's presidential forum in California, showed much different speaking styles for both presidential candidates. Like a view of their issues, their speaking styles greatly contrasted. It seemed like Barack Obama could not say three words without at least one of them being an 'ah' or an 'um'. After over a year and a half on the campaign trail, I would expect to see some improvement. Whenever Obama tries to speak extemporaneously, his speech is riddled with a bunch of empty sounds like the 'aahh'. One would think that his advisers would have made them aware of this. He must think it is adding volume to the content of the speech, but yet it is not adding any weight to his message. The 'aahh sound for Barack Obama has become packing peanuts. It adds nothing to the message, but tends to be annoying.
Lost in space: Feingold and Kohl
I am tired of accepting the ineptitude and lack of spirited results from the two men in the U.S. Senate from Wisconsin. Their records in the Senate are far below the standard set by previous Wisconsin elected officials in that prestigious body. Compare the hole this state has in the Senate. Where are these men, compared to LaFollette, Nelson, Proxmire, etc.?
When these guys do surface, their lack of insight and understanding is horrible. I can still see Senator Kohl sitting on the panel that approved Clarence Thomas to the U.S. Supreme Court. He was AWOL when it came to confronting this horrible candidate. Actually, Senator Kohl's time in office has been characterized by: nothing.
Punching the Democratic Ticket
From all the analysis that I have heard, I believe I am the only one who is not surprised that Barack Obama did not pick Hillary Clinton to be his running mate. I thought it was fairly obvious that the Clintons and the Obamas do not like each other. And why would they? They had a long hardfought drawn out primary season that has resulted in some bad blood. Although Hillary promised to campaign wholeheartedly for Barack Obama, you can see that her level of sincerity is quite low. Former President Bill Clinton does not have any nice words to say at all about the nominee. Yet both plan to speak at this week's convention.
Joe Biden is a very good pick for the Democrats. Although the Democrats won't admit it, he will compensate for a lot of the weaknesses Barack Obama has. Being in Washington, 35 years, he must be part of the problem there, that the Democrats are complaining about. He will now solve that by saying things opposite of when he was a candidate himself. He will now say that Obama has enough experience to be outstanding in the office. He all of a sudden got qualified according to Joe Biden. Obama's judgment suddenly got better also. And, of course Biden will now turn his back on his longtime friend John McCain. That's politics. That's anything to win politics.
Obama is qualified, neocon bigotry will surface
The Big Lies that are concocted by the neocons have turned the USA into a pariah nation. We have lost all of our respect worldwide. Our economy is in a shambles. The war in Iraq will only turn into a splintered and bloody civil war when we leave. The "surge" is a mockery. Joe Biden is right, it will disintegrate into at least three divisional "nations." And the total lack of morals and ethics in this administration offends even the staunchest fundamentalist Christian. Bush and his henchman, Dick Cheney, have run the principles of this nation into the ground. Corporate behemoths have been given free rein and immense profit advantages. Lies are the modus operandi of Bush-Cheney. Amazing effort will have to be made by the next president to right the ship.
Barack Obama is qualified to do just that. He is intelligent, and has worked with real people in the guts of life to straighten things out. Perhaps no presidential candidate in history has been so involved in the guts of poor and common peoples' problems. His intellect is obvious. His educational background is clear. He has impressed even the more conservative politicos of his abilities. Unlike the Bush-Cheney-McCain onslaught, integrity is a hallmark of Barack Obama's life. Republicans no longer even recognize integrity when they see it.
Hog Wild!
As I write this entry, I hear something that I really don't hear very often--the sound of rumbling motorcycles along the expressway and streets in my Bayside office.
This summer has been a terrific one for Milwaukee. First we got the Harley Museum, then Fonzie* (or whoever that statue is), and now the 105th Anniversary celebration. Here in Milwaukee we're actually able to celebrate our history and heritage in a truly incredible way. This summer alone, we've seen MillerCoors announce a major shift in operations to Chicago. We've seen the bowling congress announce plans to leave, as well. But we still--and always will--have Harley-Davidson. And they're making sure we know that they are here to stay.
USA Offered Redemption-Atonement Chance with Obama

Taking a Look at America
Last week, like many Americans, I watched the television coverage of the Democratic national convention. As a result, I have come to conclusions about several different things. First of all, there are a lot of weird looking people in America. There's really no blanket statement, you can make about the crowd that was there from the camera shots provided. Some people were dressed professionally, mainly the politicians and speakers in suits. Some people were dressed in business casual. Others look like they were on the trading floor of Let's Make a Deal. Monty should have pointed them to the curtain and maybe they could have stood behind it.
Also, America is in worse shape than recently reported. Even to the most cynical, the glass was completely empty. Apparently the change we are looking for is more dependence on government. Whenever you're not down, you don't get up in dust yourself off. We wait for a governmental program to bail you out, no matter what your situation. And if one is not available, hopefully, one will be created in the next administration. Overspending, lack of self-control, and sticking it to "the man", well those are the change we are looking for. Other than that, there was no real substance. I wasn't really looking for it, because I knew it would not be there. It was a show for the mass audiences. It lacked any kind of substance that one can almost give it a Montgomery Burns award for outstanding achievement in the field of excellence.
Bush helps McCain by Ducking out of Convention
Wondering how Republican Presidential hopeful John McCain would avoid tying himself to President Bush? Look no further than a national disaster.
The same President George W. Bush who didn't care to help out victims of Hurricane Katrina 3 years ago is suddenly concerned for the folks in the gulf coast as Hurricane Gustav bears down on them.

12 Must-Try Poutines (or Smothered Fries) Around LA
8 comments :
Shoot. I was planning to do a poutine round-up. There's obviously no point now. Well done, Lesley. I'd also recommend The Darkroom, which is where Jason Travi was consulting for awhile, and hear they have a solid poutine at Abigaile's in the South Bay, but haven't tried it yet. One of my favorite poutines was at Mezze, which involves fries, almond paste, foul, brisket, Syrian cheese and spicy Serrano peppers. RIP.ReplyDeleteReplies
Sorry Josh! Thanks for the recs. And that sounds amazing from Mezze. I never had it, but I did like that restaurant and Wexler's food a LOT.Delete
26 Beach does french fries with brie & mozzarella covered with a mushroom demi-glace sauce! Outstanding!ReplyDelete
Why does every article on "must-try" poutine in Los Angeles omit the most authentic purveyor in the Southland (Redondo Beach Cafe)? Is it because it's a blue collar joint where you can have a Canadian beer and a Montreal smoked meat sandwich while the hockey game is on, where the poutine classique (fries, Cheddar cheese curds and chicken-based brown sauce) comes on a respectable-sized plate and sets you back less than ten bucks? Poutine is a sloppy peasant food; ask a Québécois where to get the best poutine and they'll invariably point you to Chez Ashton, a popular fast food restaurant. It's a shame that Angelenos have to have their poutine elevated to lofty status with reduction of this and confit of that to where it's barely recognizable to a Hab. As a former Bostonian, I shudder to think of what will happen when some Southlander decides to try to one-up the Fluffernutter! By the way, my first sentence is a question... answers, anyone?ReplyDeleteReplies
I have no excuse other than I simply forget every time. Thank you SO much for adding it to this to the list. The other pretty good traditional renditions (that I knew of) are on here though: Soleil, Gravy Train and now at Littlefork. Travi is very serious about getting it right after eating poutine all over Montreal. But I'm a sucker for the fancy versions, too.Delete
Thanks so much for the Redondo Beach Cafe add. Here's the Google+ page:
No excuses necessary, Lesley, I just can't understand why it's left off the poutine Top Tens excepting that perhaps not many people know of it. Even in Montréal you can get fancy with fois gras poutine at Martin Picard's Au Pied de Cochon, but the line goes out the door at La Banquise where you can get the low-brow stuff 24-hours a day. Thanks for the reply!Delete
I second the comment about Redondo Beach Cafe. Any ex-pat or the Canuck-curious can get their dose of Montreal wonderfulness, minus the subzero winters.ReplyDelete

"The invitations are absolutely beautiful. They were everything I hoped for and more. I had a hard time finding response cards to match and they changed the colors on the response cards to match the invites perfectly without me even asking. I can't tell you how much I appreciated it when I opened the box and saw them. I highly recommend these invites. The pictures add such a classy touch you would expect them to have been a lot more expensive than they were. My family raved about them."
"This invitation card was perfect for our needs. I requested a sample before placing my order, and was pleased to find the paper stock was better quality than expected. Overall very pleased with the product, ease of ordering, and price."

Giving your time and/or money to a cause is a wonderful thing. You're making the world a better place, one person or community at a time - and the Federal Government agrees. Whether it's old furniture for The Salvation Army, volunteering at a homeless shelter, or donating through FirstGiving, Uncle Sam encourages charitable giving through income tax deductions. The rules, however, can seem complex. If you find yourself driven to give to those in need, and want to take advantage of tax benefits, follow these seven tips.
1. All Donations Must Be Made to IRS-Approved Organizations Be careful who you give to, the IRS only accepts donations made to qualifying organizations. You can find out which charities qualify by utilizing the Exempt Organization Select Check Tool on the IRS website. Donations to specific individuals are not tax-deductible.
2. You Can't Deduct Your Contributions Unless You Itemize You must itemize your deductions in order to write off your charitable contributions. If you use an online tax preparation program - such as H&R Block, TaxACT, or TurboTax - just answer the prompts and let the program take you to the appropriate page. If you file your return manually, however, you're going to have a few more forms to fill out.
3. Value Your Non-Cash Donations Effectively Don't get greedy. Either value your items according to thrift shop resale worth or use an online calculator. If you use tax prep software, it can assist you in valuation, as well. Invest in a professional appraisal for expensive items and keep a modest mindset for everything else. You never want to have to justify a $100 donation for an old computer printer.
4. Maintain Accurate Records The IRS requires that you have a receipt or statement for any individual contribution of $250 or more - but you do not need records for donations under that threshold. If your total non-cash donations come to more than $500 you need to complete and submit Form 8283.
Regardless of the amount, though, keep bulletproof records of your donations. These should include the name of the organization, the date of the donation, and a detailed explanation of the items given (if not cash). Hang onto your credit card statements and cancelled checks as well.
5. Your Time Is Not Tax Deductible Let's say you donate a week's worth of time at a soup kitchen, for example. The value of that time is not tax-deductible even though you could have been out earning money. However, if you spend money during that time on transportation, such as gas or parking fees, those expenses are deductible.
6. There Are Limits to What You Can Write Off If you give a lot, don't assume that it can all be written off, even if you follow the above guidelines. In many cases you are limited to deducting 50% of your adjusted gross income, although this percentage may be lower depending on the type of organization you donate to.
7. Donations Are Not Fully Tax Deductible if You Receive Something in Return The rules are designed to encourage you to donate. That means that if you benefit from making a particular contribution, Uncle Sam thinks that should factor into the tax implications. If, for example, you give $500 in cash or goods to a qualified organization and receive a gift in return valued at $50, you can only take a $450 deduction on your return.
If you still have any questions or concerns, consult IRS publication 526 or call 1-800-829-1040, Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. local time. Taking deductions for your charitable contributions helps those in need and can significantly reduce your tax costs - just be sure to approach the process properly.

With less than two weeks till the Boston Marathon, we are reminded of the tragic events that took place almost a year ago. Team MR8, the foundation dedicated to carrying out 8 year old Martin Richard's memory and wishes of "No more hurting people - Peace," has issued a runner's call to arms, asking that members and friends of the running community donate a symbolic $26.20 to the Martin W. Richard Charitable Foundation.
Money raised by this foundation will further Martin's message by investing in education, athletics and community.
Your donation of $26.20 will cement that fact that the city of Boston and runners from around the globe have taken back this historical finish line.
Last week, we were honored to participate in a fundraising study done by craigconnects, Craiglist's Craig Newmark's organization aimed to "give the voiceless a real voice and the powerless real power." It's always exciting to see other prominet individuals positively weigh in on your industry and mission.
The study, presented as an infographic, highlights the incredible growth of crowdfunding and peer-to-peer fundraising initiatives in the nonprofit industry. To give you a taste, we'll pull a few data points. We encourage you to take a peak at the infographic though.

Simply put, online fundraising pages with video outperform those without. We crunched some FirstGiving numbers and here's what we found:
Videos are more engaging than text
Now this doesn't mean that any old video can go up on your fundraisers' pages. These videos have to speak to the fundraiser's efforts, the cause, and/or your mission. Basically, it must be relevant.
Emotional, personal requests trump high end video production
Though polished promo videos are exciting, they should be saved for you, the nonprofit organization. The power of peer-to-peer fundraising lies within an individual fundraiser's network - this is called peer-to-peer fundraising after all. A low quality handheld video captured on a smartphone is all it really takes. The more personal the video the better and remember, keep it short and sweet.
A video should have a donation call-to-action
Make sure the video has a call-to-action. In this case, you'll want to remind your fundraisers that their video should explicitly ask the viewers to donate to their online fundraising page. A suggested donation amount can't hurt either.
Successful online fundraising pages have strong starts.
Here are the FirstGiving facts:
Fundraisers who did not receive donations within 3 days of launch raise an average of $153 per campaign.
Fundraisers who receive donations within 3 days of launch raise an average of $408 per campaign.
1. Fundraisers should be the first to donate to their online fundraising page
Make sure, whoever he or she may be, that they're the first to donate to their page. It communicates commitment. Why would anyone contribute to a cause when the person asking for funds has yet to do so? This practice also sets the donation amount precedent. This keeps the fundraiser in control, don't let another person set the donation bar. Will the first donation be $50? $60? You decide.
2. Have a "soft launch" for every online fundraising page
People want to be a part of a winning story. Before a fundraiser promotes an online fundraising page, make sure the "inner circle" has contributed. The "inner circle" are the people who, no matter the cause, will support a fundraiser's actions. These individuals are mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters, girlfriends, boyfriends, etc. This way when an extended network lands on a fundraiser's page, there's already some significant funds in the bank. This is called "Social Motivation." With funds already secured, a fundraiser communicates to their extended network that "it's okay, donate to this page, look at all the people who already have..."

You have a solid understanding of what peer-to-peer fundraising is, you've seen how other nonprofits have benefited from peer-to-peer fundraising, it's finally time to calculate just how much extra fundraising revenue you're capable of. (link to p2p calculator landing page) Let's crunch some numbers!
We've pre-populated some numbers with FirstGiving averages but we encourage you to customize the spreadsheet with your nonprofit's numbers. Your organization may have more fundraisers but less events, decide to charge for event registration but give donors the option to pay transaction fees. Every nonprofit is unique.
We've also broken down any sort of costs you may incur while using our service. If you're surprised with how simple these equations are, it's not by accident. We've built our entire platform to be as simple as humanly possible. Everything is laid out for you with 100% transparency.
Give it a try. Download our free FirstGiving peer-to-peer fundraising calculator and see what extra fundraising revenue your nonprofit can stand to make. Also keep in mind that this doesn't take into consideration the numerous, intangible peer-to-peer fundraising benefits like:
With the calculator, we're simply analyzing the cold hard numbers.
In 2011, before Comfort Zone Camp was a leading example on how peer-to-peer fundraising could grow a mission and empower supporters to become fundraisers, the national organization was experiencing difficulty managing supporters through their donor database. Learn how they were able to overcome their difficulties by downloading this case study. You'll learn how:
"Raising money for Comfort Zone Camp was much easier than I originally thought, thanks to my generous family, friends, and coworkers. Seeing the donations coming in makes me want to raise even more money next year to help additional families in need!" -Allison Karoly, Comfort Zone Camp walker/fundraiser
In only its second year, #GivingTuesday is changing the way nonprofits and everyday consumers understand the post Thanksgiving shopping frenzy. #GivingTuesday is a day of giving, a soul cleanser in a barrage of consumption of material goods. This special day reminds us that we can always do more for those who have less than us.
That's why it gives us great pleasure to announce this year's FirstGiving #GivingTuesday stats!
Here are some incredible FirstGiving #GivingTuesday stats

text: This book tells the story of places US history happened in words and (more than 500) photos. The book is built around the extensive set of photos taken by the author and his father during 50+ years of travels. It provides an excellent introduction to US history; the photos supplement the text and build interest in events in US history. Its main purpose is as a supplementary text for high school students studying US history (and it follows the Virginia Standards of Learning for High School US history), but it would also be of interest to adults who are interested in knowing more about US history and the places where history happened.

Most Pakistanis disapprove of the U.S. military operation that killed Osama bin Laden, and although the al Qaeda leader has not been well-liked in recent years, a majority of Pakistanis describe his death as a bad thing. Only 14% say it is a good thing.
Moreover, many Pakistanis believe the U.S. raid on bin Laden's compound – which was located about 35 miles from Islamabad – will have a negative impact on the already strained relations between the U.S. and their country.
However, the current survey, taken after the raid, showed no material change in opinion of the U.S., when compared with polling conducted immediately before it. In fact, prior to the raid favorable ratings of the U.S. had already fallen to a level not seen since 2002, following the invasion of neighboring Afghanistan.

You'd hardly think a 7.9 percent unemployment rate and a negative GDP report would signal a Goldilocks economy and drive the Dow Jones industrial index over the 14,000 mark for the first time since October 2007.
But the Dow climbed Friday to 14,009 and closed in on the 14,164 peak of 2007, while analysts described a tantalizing environment for stock market bulls — a mixture of economic data that's not too hot and not too cold.
"Goldilocks is fighting off the bears for now," said BMO Capital Markets strategist Brian Belski.
In other words, investors see an economy that is still weak enough to prompt the Federal Reserve to continue the stimulus that makes investors crave stocks. But recent economic data on manufacturing, housing, jobs and consumer confidence also are strong enough to suggest an ongoing economic recovery and allay concerns of a dip back into recession.
Analysts have worried that the unrelenting five-week climb in the stock market, and a rise by about 7 percent, would be enough to send the market into decline. Typically after sharp, fast moves, stocks fall for a while. But on Friday, analyst Will Geisdorf of Ned Davis Research said he had to move away from such expectations because momentum in the market was too great to resist.
"You don't fight the tape," Geisdorf said. "That's the No. 1 rule at Ned Davis Research."
The underlying economic numbers are encouraging, but only moderately so, and since investors want the Fed to keep helping the economy, "moderate" is seen as good rather than discouraging.
The slight jump in January unemployment to 7.9 percent from the previous month's 7.8 percent was seen Friday as a hopeful sign. The jump happened because people feel more optimistic about the employment picture. Those who had been discouraged and not looking for work started to look again, so they were counted in the government's unemployment survey as unemployed. About 12.3 million Americans want jobs but haven't found them.
While that's a troubling number, analysts are focused on the positive. The government unemployment figures released Friday showed that jobs were underestimated in November and December. About 127,000 more jobs were created than originally thought. And last year, jobs grew by about 181,000 a month on average. That's not the strong growth that would be needed to bring unemployment down to 6.5 percent within a couple of years, but it is more than the 150,000 needed to absorb new workers into the workforce and provide enough jobs to slowly pick away at the unemployment rate.
Gluskin Sheff economist David Rosenberg calculates that if job growth continues at its recent pace, a 6.5 percent unemployment rate is five years away. While that may be upsetting to people looking for jobs, investors think it will keep the Federal Reserve stimulating — flooding the market with money that investors will put into stocks and commodities.
Meanwhile, investors are ignoring the gross domestic product numbers that showed the economy contracting last month. Many economists said the downturn was a fluke that underestimated the strength of the economy because most of the drag came from cuts in government defense spending, while the private sector provided strong growth.
"We think improving business conditions and the positive sentiment in financial markets should support the prices of industrial metals and crude oil, at least for the remainder of the first quarter and possibly through to midyear," said Capital Economics economist Julian Jessop. She sees signs of a Goldilocks recovery globally, although she says it's too soon to call it a certainty for China, or Europe and the U.S., as both struggle with government debt.
Investors worldwide, however, are feeling more bullish. JP Morgan strategist Thomas Lee thinks the stock market rally is maturing after the quick 7 percent climb since Dec. 28. But, he notes, "Maturing does not mean 'go to the sidelines,' and we still see further gains in the weeks ahead."
Lee has his eye on market bullishness because eventually he thinks that will make the market vulnerable.
He predicts the Standard & Poor's 500 will slide to 1,350 before midyear. It closed at 1,513 on Friday. Lee thinks people remain underinvested in stocks, which means there is room for them to be tempted to enter the market. After shunning stocks since 2008, they have put more money into stock funds over the past four weeks than for any comparable period since 1996.

"The rain it raineth every day," sings Feste in Twelfth Night, except that it doesn't, of course. It's just that sometimes at Old Trafford, it seems like it does, and Friday was one of those days.
It rained in the morning before play began; the showers then forced the players off the field and caused the abandonment of the game at 3.45; and finally, it rained after the game had been called off. The mocking evening sunlight didn't help either.
And so the LV= Division One match between Lancashire and Kent ended in a draw. Play was delayed for 90 minutes; Lancashire declared immediately on their overnight score of 177-3, and Kent, needing an improbable 285 to win, were 45-2 when the entertainment ended for the day. Lancashire took nine points from the draw, Kent, who bowled their overs too slowly, only six.
At least the few spectators at Old Trafford did see some cricket on Friday. More particularly, they saw Sajid Mahmood bowling with his tail up, and it was a splendid sight.
The 28-year-old fast bowler shattered Joe Denly's defence with his twelfth delivery of the innings and he had Geraint Jones neatly caught by Paul Horton off the first ball of his fourth over. In between those successes and after them, he disconcerted the Kent captain Rob Key and he skulled the 19-year-old Matt Coles who had been promoted to No4, so we were told, to help Kent's victory push. I should coco. Either way, welcome to Manchester.
Everybody in the press-box thought Mahmood bowled well. So did Glen Chapple, whose opinion matters rather more.
"It'll be a great boost for Saj that he played a massive role in bowling Kent out in the first innings," said Chapple. "He's bowled accurately and quick in this match. He had a big job to do here and he did it. He had a different job to do at Chelmsford in the previous game, when he came on after the opening bowlers, and he did that too."
So despite the rain, it was a fine day for Mahmood, who finished with figures of 7-76.
It was a decent week for Lancashire too. Chapple's team played most of the good cricket in the match against Kent, and Ashwell Prince played two of the better innings on a lively wicket that we are likely to see this summer.
And overall, it's been a decent 19 years for Glen Chapple. On Tuesday the entry c Sutton b Chapple marked the Lancashire skipper's 700th first-class wicket for Lancashire. On Friday he downplayed the achievement.
"I suppose it's good to get there but hopefully there's a few more yet and it's not the last milestone," he said. "I was made aware that I was on 699 but I've taken a few other first-class wickets, and to be honest, it's not important.
"I'm really happy that I've got a couple more years left, and hopefully more than that. But it's crazy when you think I'm still 1,200 wickets behind Brian Statham."
However, the seamer's self-effacement does not extend to his friendly rivalry with the Lancashire Director of Cricket Mike Watkinson, whom he now trails by just 18 wickets in the county list.
"He's very close to getting a text message when I get past him!" Chapple laughed.

Best Tasting Fiber Supplement
5 people found the following review helpful
Posted by bobm128 From Wisconsin on Feb 19, 2007
Purchased at iHerb
I really like this fiber supplement. It has a pleasant taste, mixes easily, and helps make sure I get enough fiber. Also, the ingredients have a nice profile, pro-biotics, Omega EFA's etc. Garden of Life tends to be pricey but I do buy Super Seed.

Super Seed has a really nice mild cinnamon taste. Chock full of omega 3 fatty acids from flax and chai seeds. It has sprouts and probiotics. This really helps with my gut flora and I find it really helps stave off (TMI alert!) chronic yeast infections that I'm susceptible to. Though I do find that it's not that effective for me with regularity though it helps alot of people. I love to mix this with my very own greens drink mix which includes: Garden of Life's Perfect Food Raw (or BarleyMax by Halleluja Acres), Acerola Cherry Powder (Now), Navitas Twister Super Fruit Blend of goji, pomegranite and acai and Navitas Maca powder. I mix it all together in water and chug it down. Yumm!!

I have suffered from IBS for 40 years. I was in the middle of a 4 month non-stop episode when I discovered Super Seed. It halted my episode within 3 days and 3 weeks later I'm still episode free. I will gladly continue taking this product.

The even took place at the Donut Bank on Lincoln Avenue from 7:00-9:00 a.m. Tuesday morning.
The event is a chance for the public to come out and meet officers with the Evansville Police Department.
If you have questions or concerns about public safety or simply want to chat with the cops, anyone is welcome.
Other communities hold events like this and EPD believes it will be very successful in Evansville.
"There's a lot of people in the community that don't like the police or don't trust the police. I would encourage those people to come out, meet us, get to know us on a personal level. You know, we're just like everybody else, we go eat, we have families," Chief Billy Bolin said. "I think once you get to know us on a personal level, it's not just that guy in the uniform. So that's what we're hoping to accomplish."
Their plan is to have these once a month at different Evansville Donut Bank locations.

I believe one of the necessities for a free society is the ability to have the facts to make choices for ones-self.
I support this effort because GMOs are designed to make people sick, kill them, and destroy our ability to raise crops.

Qt for Urbi is a binding of the Qt library in Urbi, enabling you to create native graphical interfaces dynamically directly from Urbi. It exposes urbiscript events to ease the use of Qt signals and slots. Major and minor version numbers of the Qt for Urbi packages reflects the Urbi SDK version number for which they were built. Loading it in another version of the Urbi kernel probably won't work. For instance, Qt for Urbi 2.4.x will only work with Urbi SDK 2.4.y. It is still a bit experimental. Only the 32-bit Linux version is available, and not all classes and members are bound yet.
WikiPL provides a Python programming environment hosted in a MediaWiki server. Each article in the wiki contains either a Python function or a class named as the article's title. Moreover, the article can contain the source code, documentation, unit tests, development edition, permissions, and form elements for the parameters of the function. Users can view the documentation or edit and execute the source code. Execution can happen either on the local computer, on a remote server, or in the browser (through Pyjamas). Code in one article can be invoked by another article through regular function calls, without any changes to the syntax of the Python language. It also offers a package that imports article code into a local Python namespace for offline development.
lrc (The Linux Resource Compiler) is a system for packing many files into a single file for installation and use in a program as its resources (such as the graphics and sounds used by a game). It consists of a command-line tool, called lrc, for compiling the resources and a library, called liblrc, to extract the resources from a file generated by the compiler.
libsockmux-glib is an implementation of the sockmux protocol, using GIO data types and using glib functions internally. The interface offered to applications is very simple and straightforward. sockmux specifies a simple way for muxing messages and data streams onto a single socket for network and local communication streams.
Charm++ is a portable adaptive runtime system for parallel applications. Application developers create an object-based decomposition of the problem of interest, and the runtime system manages issues of communication, mapping, load balancing, fault tolerance, and more. Sequential code implementing the methods of these parallel objects is written in C++. Calls to libraries in C++, C, and Fortran are common and straightforward. Charm++ is portable across individual workstations, clusters, accelerators (Cell SPEs and GPUs), and supercomputers such as those sold by IBM (Blue Gene, POWER) and Cray (XT3/4/5/6). Applications based on Charm++ are used on at least 5 of the 20 most powerful computers in the world.

2012 Toyota Prius V, an AW Flash Drive Car Review
What Is It?
The 2012 Toyota
To make the Prius into a Prius V, Toyota stretched the car's underlying MC platform in every dimension, adding width, length, height and interior room. Cargo space goes up by 58 percent while headroom and shoulder room grow by about an inch each. Weight also goes up by 232 pounds to 3,274 pounds, mileage drops from 51 mpg city/48 mpg highway to 44/40, and the price will go up when the new car comes out in fall, though we don't yet know by how much.
What Is It Like to Drive?
It's a little more responsive than the Prius. In making the Prius V's larger rear hatch, engineers stiffened the body around that opening. Combined with other tweaks to the unibody, torsional rigidity goes up by about 5 percent. Separate bushings for the front springs and shocks replace a single bushing and allow further refinement of the ride and handling. With new tires aimed at a better balance of rolling resistance, comfort, grip and noise, the ride is quieter and handling feels a little more taut and responsive.
The 215/50 Toyo Proxes A20s mounted on the upscale trim level's 17-inch wheels were the better handlers of the Prius V model lineup. The Yokohama BluEarth S34s found on other trim levels were quieter and more comfortable. It's not a sports sedan by any means, but it's a little more fun to drive, especially with the Toyos.
Since the 134-hp Hybrid Synergy Drive powertrain is carried over from the previous Prius, the extra weight of the new model slows the V down in a straight line, hitting 60 mph from a standstill about a half second slower at 10.4 seconds, according to Toyota.
Do I Want It?
The Prius V, which comes to market this fall, is just one of what will soon be four Prius models, including the original, 2012's plug-in Prius and a smaller model to be based on the Prius C concept shown in Detroit also coming in 2012. For the planet-conscious buyer, or just for people who want more mileage, Toyota offers you one more choice. Choice is good.
