Marathon day of Rockville, then deming, then deming skip round. Was good times and I am not that sore today.
Chadwick McKenzie March 18, 2013 at 4:40am
Played my first full round in over a year on Friday with Reece and it felt good. Then played in the Freeze through the trees. Played what I think is well for being off that long Round 1 +1 Round 2 +4. Not a bad weekend. I am sore as hell still now Monday morning, but I look forward to maybe doubles tomorrow and ready to get back in the swing of things.

Fine line, isn't it?ReplyDelete
As long as it's a patient cat, it's okay either way. Otherwise... well, Bob will soon learn what one does not do to a cat.ReplyDeleteReplies
She's patient and loves attention. Lucky Bob.Delete
Does the cat know it's hugging and not squeezing? LOLReplyDeleteReplies
She may be on the fence about the whole thing...Delete

Early in this N.F.L. season I made what seemed, at the time, only a slightly stupid bet. With the Miami Dolphins showing some promise, I went ahead and bet a $50 bottle of single malt with a loudmouth Bostonian that Miami, not New England, would win the AFC East Conference.
At the time, it seemed like a slightly stupid bet. Now, with the schoolyard he-said, she-said shenanigans in the Miami Dolphins locker room, it turns out that it was a stupid, stupid bet. Perhaps the dumbest bet I've ever made in my life, although it's hard to say, because I've made a lot of them.
As we all saw Monday night, the last and final winless team, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, got their first victory at the hands of the Dysfunctional Dolphins. On display in Miami's dismal 22-19 loss was how dysfunctional that team really is. They simply could not run the ball behind that weakened offensive line. It was an offensive display of a running game.
Martin, a lineman for the Dolphins, left the team suddenly a couple of weeks ago – supposedly because the locker room became sour. Some of that sourness may or may not have included threatening voice and text messages from fellow offensive lineman Incognito.
The media ended up getting hold of the Incognito text messages, some with racial slurs, and it blew up big time. (You know it's a big deal when Savannah Guthrie is reporting the latest details on The Today Show.) With the media hype taking over a possibly huge N.F.L scandal, it's not hard to guess what happened next: From the sound of it, Martin quit the team because he was being bullied by Incognito – with the raw texts and messages now in the hands of the media to prove it.
Then comes the revelation that maybe Incognito was ordered by a member of the coaching staff to toughen Martin up, and that his out-of-line texts were in line with that order. For the media, this was fast becoming another Bountygate scandal that maybe, just maybe, would lead to suspensions all the way up the coaching staff in Miami.
With no return in sight for Martin, and the league beginning to investigate, Incognito was suspended indefinitely. The Dolphins of 2013 were soon to become the Saints of 2012. But now it turns out that Martin sent Incognito a ton of vulgar and threatening texts over the past few months, too. Maybe these guys just really don't like each other. Or is this just the way teammates communicate with each other, particularly amongst offensive linemen? Incognito says the vulgar texts are just the norm inside the locker room.
"I'm embarrassed by my actions," Incognito told Fox Sports last weekend. "But what I want people to know is, the way Jonathan and the rest of the offensive line and how our teammates, how we communicate – it's vulgar."
For example, Incognito told Fox Sports, just before this story spiraled out of control, he received threatening texts from Martin.
"A week before this went down, Jonathan Martin texted me on my phone – 'I will murder your whole f---ing family,'" Incognito told Fox Sports, quoting Martin. "Now, did I think Jonathan Martin was going to murder my family? Not one bit....I knew it was coming from a brother. I knew it was coming from a friend. I knew it was coming from a teammate. That just puts in context how we communicate with one another."
Incognito (not an inappropriate last name, I'd say, having watched him closely) is asking everyone to believe that his vulgar texts posed no real threats to Martin or members of his family. Unfortunately for Incognito, he doesn't have exactly have a saintly past. Playing dirty at the University of Nebraska (penalties, locker room fights, fights on campus), he was a pretty good football player, nonetheless. But finally, his anger issues got the best of him, and Nebraska coach Bill Callahan eventually sent him packing.
Incognito was taken on at the University of Oregon, but was kicked off that team after only one week of practice. Make no mistake about it, Incognito is a pain in the ass. If you've seen the video of him going absolutely batshit crazy inside a bar with his shirt off, you know what I am talking about. Incognito has definitely bullied people in his time.
But somehow, I don't believe Incognito was bullying Martin in all of this. I honestly believe Martin and Incognito are friends, and how they communicate, appropriate or not, is just that – how they communicate. And for someone like Martin to make it in the N.F.L., and allow someone to bully him – I don't believe it. To be an offensive lineman at that level, you have to be nasty and mean. I have trouble believing an N.F.L lineman can get bullied, especially by a guy on his team.
So what happened here? I think Martin had enough pressure. Maybe the locker room was sour, and he just didn't want any more of it. Leaving a team is a choice players make. Sometimes enough is enough. So he leaves the team, Incognito's messages get tossed into the media frenzy, and all of a sudden, it's a bullying story. Fans raise their eyebrows at the vulgarity of the texts. "Is that the way it really is, inside locker rooms in the N.F.L?" Like they're surprised that these guys say filthy things.
Now comes the investigation, and we'll see what that brings. Honestly, this sounds like two kids fighting in a schoolyard who get busted for cussing. It's a surprise to the principal and teachers that they know this language. Heads are going to roll. The playground may never be the same again.
In the end, we will find that Martin was simply done with football, and that's the story, plain and simple. Incognito and his texts were just a sideshow.
Unfortunately for Miami fans and people like me, this hyped up story is taking its toll on a decent team. I guess I should start shopping for a good bottle of single malt.
Any suggestions?

In a move to expand its European presence, Philadelphia-based StarCite announced in May that it had acquired Travent Limited, EMEA, a U.K.-based distributor of its MeetingView enterprise meeting-management technology. The acquisition marks a significant step for StarCite in its plans to expand globally and broaden its base of corporate customers in Europe. Travent was the sole distributor of StarCite's MeetingView solutions in Europe.
In addition to customers such as Pfizer and HRG, Travent's staff and leadership will be joining StarCite, including managing director Ray Thackery. Thackery was co-founder of seeUthere Technologies, which originally developed the MeetingView platform. SeeUthere merged with PlanSoft in 2004 to become OnVantage, and OnVantage merged with StarCite in 2006. StarCite has continued to offer MeetingView.
Travent customers will get access to new services as a result of the acquisition, says John Pino, StarCite founder and president of StarCite International, including round-the-clock customer service and increased RFP and sourcing functionality.
StarCite's road map includes plans for further global expansion, adds Pino. "As strategic meetings management continues to gain momentum worldwide, there are going to be more and more customers who are interested in a global services approach to meetings. Our acquisition strategy and growth strategy take that into consideration as a primary motive."
Although terms of the agreement prevent Pino from disclosing Travent's revenue or total employee count, the Travent staff, who mainly work virtually and in client offices in the U.K., will now report into StarCite's European headquarters in Düsseldorf, Germany. With the Travent acquisition, nearly 20 percent of StarCite's business is now generated outside the United States.

Sparks firefighters arrived at 3898 Whispering Wind Drive and began taking down the kitchen ceiling after finding no one inside the residence. The attic fire did not have a chance to run through the entire attic, according to Fire Marshal Bob King. The origin of the fire has been determined to be in the attic, but the site is still under investigation as to how the fire started.
The call was dispatched to SFD by a neighbor, who later reported that the residents of the home were on vacation. Eighteen personnel responded to the scene and a fire truck extended its ladder above the house in preparation for roof ventilation, but it was not needed as crews were able to extinguish the fire inside the house.

So the winner has to make a samplepack HM? ... seems like too much effort...
Where's the Fun in 45 second beats?
1 sample. and more challenging rules... those two are the only realistically feasable ideas...
... what was the objective again!??
A sample pack could be something with a few cut loops from where ever (different songs or the same, but actually samples), some drumloops and/or single shot drums or other single shot samples or loops. ODK has put a few together before but they contained entire songs also. I'm just suggesting short samples instead of posting a entire track as a "sample".
Haha, yeah. 45 secs is short, but making people have to cram what they want to do in a short time, would have to force some creativity. I guess the thought behind this is also getting more people to vote if they could listen to everything in a shorter time.
Objective for these ideas or objective pertaining to the actually battle? I guess the objective for these ideas were to get people to vote for the "best" beat out of the battle. By making it harder and more "bare bones" it would be easier to judge and vote by seeing what everyone started with, especially the same exact material, instead of people picking different parts from a large audio pool.

Pushing the Envelope wants to ask you for your thoughts on how the U.S. Postal Service, as it faces its financial crisis, might improve operations and reduce costs while continuing to deliver mail. Carriers are sometimes required to complete tasks and processes that leave them scratching their heads and asking, "why are we doing this?" Examples previously cited by some carriers include waiting in line for accountable items (mail that requires a signature) and having their productivity "rewarded" with more work. Another significant issue of concern to carriers is having single pieces of First Class Mail® driven out to them while on their route. There are some that believe this happens to influence First Class performance delivery scores. This action will often require a carrier to change or retrace their line of travel. What are some of the operations, tasks, and processes that do not make sense in delivery operations and that you believe management can eliminate? And why don't they make sense? What ideas do you have to improve these operations, tasks, and processes and reduce cost? Improve service? We invite you to share your answers in the comment section below. This topic is hosted by the OIG's Delivery Directorate.

With mail volume decreasing, the U.S. Postal Service is coming up with new ways to reach out to potential customers. As one of the latest and most effective trends in customer outreach, more and more businesses are embracing social media outlets to engage the public. Presently, the Postal Service has a Facebook page and a Twitter account, but is the agency using them effectively? According to the Postal Technology International, September 2011 issue, effective use of social media is at the heart of many successful businesses. With so many potential customers spending time on social media websites they have become an increasingly important means of reaching people. Consumers use social media sites to seek advice from their online peers and communities about what products and services are best. Companies have the opportunity to find out what consumers are saying about them, so they can gain insight into what people want in a product or service. It is widely accepted that social media is most effective when used as a two-way communications platform, for example, when the company not only issues its messaging and listens for remarks from customers, but when the company uses the platform to respond to customers directly, engaging with them on specific issues. Also, many companies are now advertising their products and services on social media sites to tap into a group of consumers who spend a significant amount of time on the Internet. How can the Postal Service use social media to increase its customer base and revenue? This blog is hosted by the OIG's Network Processing team.

Every year, millions of Americans send holiday greeting cards through the mail to friends and family around the country. Usually this means a trip to the store to pick out cards, the Post Office to get stamps, sometimes even a photographer to capture that perfect holiday photo, and another trip to the Post Office to mail the cards. But now there are many options for creating a holiday greeting card that save both time and money. Not only are these options a potential boon to consumers, they are an opportunity for the Postal Service. Several years ago, Hallmark® introduced a hybrid greeting card that customers can order online. For one price, customers create a card by choosing a design and uploading their own photos and even choosing the day the Postal Service delivers the card. This year, Apple® introduced Cards, a smartphone application that allows customers to create and mail hybrid greeting cards directly from their iPhones. Still, for those who love the experience of shopping for cards, a number of Postal Service retail locations offer a selection of greeting cards allowing customers to buy, stamp, and send them from the same location. Offering holiday cards through multiple platforms has a number of benefits for the Postal Service and its customers. This type of multi-channel strategy provides customers with convenience and multiple options for using physical mail. If expanded to other postal products, such as Priority Mail or Standard Mail, this strategy could provide the Postal Service with an opportunity to grow mail volume for other mail classes and improve customer satisfaction by making other products and services easier and more convenient to use. Additionally, hybrid holiday cards, whether created from online or mobile platforms, represent a path forward for the Postal Service in the digital world. It shows that digital technology can compliment and not be the enemy of physical mail. So, should the Postal Service make efforts to apply this multi-channel, hybrid mail model to other postal products, and if so which ones? Do you plan to send your holiday cards this year using an online or mobile card builder or are you sending them the old fashioned way? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section below.

BROWNSVILLE, TEXAS – MARCH 1, 2013 – As the thousands of people expected to enjoy the festivities at this year's Sombrero Festival walk the grounds, they might notice the many T-shirts with the official Sombrero Festival 2013 logo on them.
What they might not know is that this year's logo was designed by 22-year-old art education major Angela Ruiz, the winner of the first ever Sombrero Festival Annual Design Contest.
"Seeing [the T-shirts], I'll probably be freaking out a little bit," said Ruiz. "Seeing them everywhere, I'll feel like, 'Is that really my design?' I'm going to be surrounded by my design. It'll be profound, almost a sublime shock."
The annual Sombrero Festival is part of the Charro Days festivities unique to Brownsville and Matamoros, which take place every year in the latter part of February and first few days of March.
Late last year, Sombrero Festival, Ltd. held an open invitation for students from The University of Texas at Brownsville and Texas Southmost College to submit potential designs to be used in the promotion of the 2013 Sombrero Festival as its official logo. Each submission would be judged on three criteria as related to the Sombrero Festival: the depiction of two countries and two cities; the cultural representations of each country and city; and the overall feeling of "fiesta" and celebration.
The winning design would be featured in advertising, social media and other media, and be printed on the official Sombrero Festival T-shirts. The first-prize artist won $500, and the runner-up artist received $100 and their design will be used for the children's events on Saturday, March 1.
"The Sombrero Festival board of directors has made an effort to support the community and especially the university throughout the years," said Eloy Alvarez, Assistant Director of Student Life and member of the Sombrero Festival Board. "The design contest is the latest project aimed at providing the students with an opportunity to showcase their talents and assist in the cost of their education with the prize money."
Ruiz's design, two crossed acoustic guitars representing the United States and Mexico, each colored in their country's colors but overlapping at their bases, won out over five finalists, all designs submitted by students from UT Brownsville.
"I noticed with both the U.S. and Mexican flags that they both had red," said Ruiz. "Red symbolizes passion, and the passion that both nations have, though different in some ways, both of them share music as a passion. It doesn't matter if it's a different style; [each country] still loves their music. That's how we're united – through music."
Since it was unveiled as the winning entry last November, the design has been shown in Mexico City, shown to the president of the Sombrero Festival association and its unveiling on the Sombrero Festival Facebook page has received a positive response from the public.
"Angela Ruiz is an extremely talented young lady," said Alvarez. "The design she submitted was beautifully done and well thought out for the event. Early responses to her design on the various marketing venues for the event have been extremely positive. The public have commented favorably on the design. Sombrero Festival President Olga Gonzalez absolutely loves it."
Although she has lived in Brownsville most of her life, Ruiz had never attended Sombrero Festival.
Before she began to design, she did research, scouring the internet for images of past Sombrero Festivals to get an idea for what the festival represents. In the course of brainstorming her design, Ruiz said that she created at least 10 to 20 thumbnail mock-ups of potential designs before settling on her ultimately winning entry.
"They had the Chili Cook-Off, the food section, they have the entertainment, sure," said Ruiz. "But one of the biggest things is the music—that's what Sombrero Fest is about. It's a celebration of both cultures, yes, but one of the main things that people go for is the music. With this picture, it represents the entertainment aspect of the Sombrero Festival."
Ruiz found out about the contest through Alvarez and chose to participate in the contest as a way to, as she puts it, "flex her design muscles." She currently works as the graphic designer for the Office of Student Life, creating the colorful fliers and other materials used to promote student events on campus. She credits working at Student Life as helping her sharpen the skills that she felt were necessary to create her winning entry.
"I was really excited about it," said Ruiz. "I wanted to show that I was pretty good at design, since I'm the graphic designer for Student Life, and I wanted to do more."
The Brownsville Hanna High School graduate will graduate from UTB in 2014. She wants to continue to work in graphic design but ultimately hopes to one day become an art director.
This experience, she says has "spurred her on," and for now, she is looking forward to experiencing her first Sombrero Festival and seeing her design on display.
"It's a different feeling, this year: a new Charro Days, a new experience," said Ruiz. "Sombrero Festival, something I've never experienced, so I'm excited. It'll be like, 'wow.'"

text: Richard Harland caught up with Paul Grobler when the latter was in his eighties, and he persuaded Grobler to tell his story for this book. Grobler, born in 1922, did not start hunting in Rhodesia till 1945, and he shot his last elephant in 1990. During this period, exactly forty-five years, he is reputed to have shot more elephants than any other human being. Whatever the number, that he was successful there can be no doubt, for he built up an entire farming empire on the proceeds of his ivory sales. He started hunting with a .303 and a £1 sterling open hunting license in his pocket. Such a license allowed unlimited game shooting (except for lion, leopard, and rhino) in the tsetse-fly zone by the Rhodesian authorities. Obviously, this situation could not last, but it is indicative of the conditions under which he hunted. But like all good and interesting stories, this title is more than just a book on elephant hunting: It is about a person who through his grit and single-minded determination managed to eke a living out of an extremely harsh land, and he made a good living. Pioneering days in colonial Africa were hard, and the people who stayed alive and succeeded were, indeed, a tough breed. Paul Grobler is such a man, and the story clearly shows it. Full of historical black and white pictures, the book is testimony to a type of human being who no longer exists in the modern world a person and time hard to imagine for most of us in the twenty-first century.

Thursday, April 24, 2014
By Steve Mistler firstname.lastname@example.com
Staff Writer
The first policy pitch by the Democratic-led Legislature could be right in Gov. Paul LePage's wheelhouse.
Gov. Paul LePage
Maine Senate President Justin Alfond, D-Portland
The Democratic majority has yet to introduce initiatives that it plans to pursue over the next two years. But the Legislature's new leaders have been telegraphing an emphasis on the state's so-called skills gap between available jobs and a work force that's unqualified to fill them.
Senate President Justin Alfond of Portland and House Speaker Mark Eves of North Berwick discussed the issue Wednesday in speeches at the State House, hinting that the first bill of the session may be an attempt to address it.
If such legislation materializes, it could represent Democrats' first policy outreach with appeal to Republicans, including LePage.
More importantly, it could address a problem that may leave an estimated 3,863 jobs unfilled between now and 2018, according to a report commissioned by Southern Maine Community College.
The report, done last year by Planning Decisions Inc. of South Portland, projected that Maine will suffer "a severe shortage of workers" in computer, information technology and precision manufacturing industries if Maine does not beef up training and educational offerings in those fields.
The study came to the same conclusion about a projected shortage of skilled labor for hospitality, transportation/shipping and science technology jobs.
The governor has been hammering the skills-gap issue for two years. Last year, he met with a group of business leaders who were nearly unanimous in lamenting a work force that's ill-prepared for available jobs.
LePage also signed into law L.D. 627, a bill that allocated $257,000 to York County Community College to respond to demand from Pratt & Whitney for precision machine tool operators.
The large regional employer kicked in $100,000 to assist the effort. Business leaders saw the contribution as a reflection of the size and prevalence of the problem.
Chris Hall, vice president of government relations for the Portland Regional Chamber, said the skills gap is a "diverse and serious issue" for Maine and other states.
A recent report from the Manufacturing Institute showed that more than 600,000 manufacturing jobs nationwide were unfilled because employers couldn't find workers.
"There are thousands of available jobs, but companies don't see where that work force is going to come from," Hall said. "We have to find a way to fill those jobs. Companies are here for a reason. ... Nobody looks forward to outsourcing these jobs elsewhere or overseas."
Tackling the issue will likely require long-term education and diverting already-limited funding for higher education.
Maine's community college system has appealed for more state funding, citing skyrocketing enrollment but stagnant budgets.
Additionally, it's more expensive to beef up a trade-based curriculum than one heavy in liberal arts. In fact, many community colleges pay more to give trade-based courses than they receive in tuition.
According to data from SMCC, the college spends $1.5 million more to train nursing students than it receives in annual tuition from those students. It takes a $500,000 annual hit for manufacturing training. Computer technology costs an estimated $100,000 more annually.
"These and other educational programs lead to some of the most economically vital and rewarding professions," said President Ron Cantor. "To truly close the work force skills gap, we need to close the funding gap."
It's unclear how far a Democratic proposal will go toward addressing the issue. For now, Democratic leaders are emphasizing collaboration between businesses and education organizations.
Senate Majority Leader Seth Goodall, D-Richmond, said lawmakers are looking at business-education partnerships and reviewing the education system to make sure it is responsive to job needs.
"This is an important issue that hits three areas of need," Goodall said. "It puts people back to work, keeps our businesses here and grows the entire Maine economy."

Recently, Martha took us to the New York Botanical Garden. She actually got special permission to take us there because dogs usually are not allowed on the grounds. Knowing this, we, of course, were on our best behavior. The reason Martha went there was to plant the Martha Stewart Culinary Herb Garden, which she designed with her garden experts. This very fragrant garden is part of a bigger exhibit called the Edible Garden, which is on display beginning June 27th, running through the summer. We're told that it will be very interesting with fun-filled food and gardening festivals and demonstrations from celebrity chefs and experts. Maybe they will invite Francesca and me back with our little cooking range!
We make friends where ever we go. These nice girls are Tess Gordon, Avishag Shvil, and Lydia Gordon.

The procedural steps involved in completing a statistical investigation are often discussed in an introductory statistics course. For example, students usually gain knowledge about developing an appropriate research question, performing appropriate descriptive and graphical summaries, completing the necessary inferential procedures, and communicating the results of such an analysis. The traditional sequencing of topics in an introductory course places statistical inference near the end. As a result, students have limited opportunities to perform a complete statistical investigation. We propose a new sequencing of topics that may enhance students' ability to perform a complete statistical investigation from beginning to end.

Meet Lynn
Self-knowledge heals, liberates and empowers – spiritually and practically.
I believe passionately in self-knowledge and so I write, teach, speak, and mentor about the ways we can come to imagine ourselves courageously and compassionately. Through my work I share the creative archetypes of being human (inspired by Rudolf Steiner, for the most part) and then I ask questions that reveal how the archetype shows up and evolves in your wildly fabulous, often perplexing, individuality.
I think life is dull and restless if we don't put our hearts into our own inner development – the gentle goal of becoming something better – more fully human, more fully self – seeking truth, beauty, goodness – learning the hard and amazing lessons of our lives. This is not about becoming perfect or finding bliss – that would be equally dull and restless. I feel it is more about carving the angel out of the stone until it can fly in freedom. (Thank you, Michelangelo!).
I design and teach programs to nurture and cultivate self-knowledge, love for others, devotion to the world and to the future.
Imagine Self is my work this lifetime and like all other fools I am willing to tread this destiny path and thank God for the inspiring companions (visible and invisible) who guide me, keep me company, encourage my becoming, and pull me out of the ditches of despair when I lose my balance.
You have very, very important things to do. My joy lives in the reality that I get to support you in awakening to that part of you that imagines your very special deeds in the world and says confidently "I am!"
Don't look for initials after my name qualifying my expertise. The only qualifications or credentials that mean anything to me and, hopefully, to you, are found in the hearts of my friends. If something I write or say rings true in your heart, my dear friend, why would you need me to have a PhD? Of course, if a university offered a degree in the art of being human and becoming I, I might have taken it.
Thomas Merton's confessor, Father Matthew Kelty, spoke of his role as a supporter of others: "…preferring to enable others to become purer images of themselves…" In all I do I seek to become a purer image of myself. The five curriculums of Imagine Self are my way of enabling you to do the same.
If you want the long brief version of my life, and a picture of the out of the box training I've gone through, because you are curious or interested, go here.
If you want to know about Rudolf Steiner and Anthroposophy, go here.
Is This You?
If you have read this far, you probably had an immediate intuition when you landed on this webpage that you wanted to spend time here and discover what Imagine Self offers you that's different, meaningful, and actually worth your attention.
You want to heal, liberate and empower your inner life. You take this seriously and are willing to work at it.
All the Imagine Self programs require the following from you:
~ serious and creative thinking (are you ready for imagining a "wiki of you," the constant, deeply thoughtful editing and rewriting of your soul's truth),
~ courageous and open feeling (compassion and objectivity are not for emotional wimps or sentimental storytellers as you will dive directly into the deepest waters of your soul) and
~ devoted and unselfish commitment to your inner development (its the training for your inner triathalon – find yourself, know yourself, become yourself).
You have sought and practiced a number of paths of spiritual and personal development. You've found great value in them, yet you keep looking. You want a wisdom that links them all together. There are so many practices and programs that are brilliant and transformative, nurturing and centering, offering links to the divine, to yourself and to the world. Imagine Self connects you to the fundamental frameworks of being human and becoming I, giving you the possibility of integrating your other work with a lasting and illuminating wisdom.
What Others Say
I want you to know, this day, that your words have blessed and continue to bless me with their power and their wisdom.
Rev. Kristi Denham, Pastor
Congregational Church of Belmont – UCC
Lynn Jericho's inner Lent sessions have prodded me to connect in a meaningful way to the season, the earth, and the story. Lynn has an amazing capacity to sit and listen for awhile and then suddenly take hold of all that has been said and connect the dots for all who are listening.
Mindy Mount
I love your writing style, I love your keen observations about us humans and our interactions with others and our own selves.
Sharon Stanberry Rosshirt
Thank you Lynn, the teleseminar was beyond words for me. It was profound, so very timely, and shook me to my very core with the new information and the shaking is what I needed and had been seeking….so it was very good.

"I used this card as a joint christmas card and birth announcement and it was perfect! I included birth announcement on the front of the card and than a christmas greeting on the back. The card is beautiful and exactly what I was looking for."
"So sweet! Announcements turned out beautifully. The colors in person are even better than on screen. Very sweet and simple. We used the "vintage" effect offered on our photo and it seemed to enhance the style of the whole announcement. Also shipping arrived faster than on conf receipt! Whole experience was five stars!"
"The card was a THANK YOU sent to folks who contributed to a fund raising walk for a fatal disease. My friend, who suffers from this disease, was pictured on the front with her husband. The card captured her positive spirit and in a bright color which matched the t-shirts color for our team, the words THANK YOU, were written. A personal message from me was on the back. I heard rave reviews from those who received them and many said they would frame the card."
"We ordered 100 pearl shimmer (Blessed) announcements for our little guy and you cannot imagine the compliments we received on them. They were beautiful, excellent quality and overall a great product. The only complaint I would have was the envelopes didn't seem to have a good quality glue on the seal so I put a piece of tape on everyone. They probably would have been ok but I just worried."
"I could not be more pleased with the quality and design of this birth announcement. I have received nothing but compliments. I selected the red font color, as my daughter's photo background was red. I plan on using Tiny Prints to order my daughters Christening invitations as well as First Birthday invitations. I have recommended this website to all of my friends and family."

UPF stand for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. Clothing can protect you from the sun's ultraviolet rays. It all depends on the fiber content, weave, weight of fabric and color.
SPF stands for the Sun Protection Factor, most commonly associated with sunscreen. This measures the amount of time it takes for skin to burn. UPF on the other hand stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor, which is a measure of the amount of UV radiation that penetrates a fabric and reaches your skin. For example, a fabric rated with a UPF of 20 will allow only 1/20th of the sun's UV rays to pass through.
Marmot UPF fabrics come in UPF 20, 25, 30, 35, 45 & 50.
Wearing a UPF fabric would greatly reduce your exposure to UV rays, (where it covers your body). Dark colors and tight weaves will have higher UPF ratings. As well, nylons and polyesters are better than plain cotton because they reflect radiation.
Why do we encourage proper care of our clothing and gear?
Because you have invested in (or are thinking about investing in) one of the most technically advanced pieces of apparel or equipment you'll ever own and we want to make sure you have the information you need to protect and care for your purchase. Proper care assures you will optimize the performance of your Marmot product and maximize its service-life.

Project Instructions
Step: 1
Cover work surface with plastic.
Step: 2
Tear three strips of muslin about 4-inch wide and six strips about 6-inch wide.
Step: 3
Lay T-shirt and muslin flat on the plastic. Spray T-shirt with water to dampen. For each color of paint, dilute about 1 part paint with 10 parts water. Sponge onto fabric to create a mottled look with background showing through in areas. On the 4-inch width fabric, make one of each color, Golden Tan, Crimson and Royal Blue. On the T-shirt and all other fabric, use Golden Tan and Chocolate. Let dry.
Step: 4
Snip the ends of the Golden Tan, Crimson and Royal Blue strips about every ½ -inch on the short end and tear into strips. Braid the strips using one of each color. Set aside.
Step: 5
Place T-shirt on a shirtboard or cardboard to keep glue from seeping through. Using 6-inch strips, fold over long edge and apply OK to Wash-It Glue along folded area. Glue these strips around edge of sleeves and around bottom of shirt. Glue two pieces on the front, from shoulders to center front in a V shape. Glue braid on the glued edge of the V, leaving ends loose. With scissors, snip all loose edges every ½ -inch and tear to create fringe, leaving about 1-inch of the glued area flat.
Step: 6
Thread one, two or three pony beads as desired, onto all fringe areas, leaving every other piece of fringe without beads. Tie knots on the ends of the fringe to hold on.
Step: 7
Headband: Tear a strip long enough to go around head and tie and wide enough to fold over several times to create a band. Glue folds so it will stay in a narrow band. Glue feathers to the center. The ends of the feathers will need to be trimmed with scissors. Glue two rows of braid over the ends of the feathers and across the band, leaving the ends loose. Fringe the ends of the headband.
Step: 8
Using Jewel-It Glue, glue a large gold button inside the V of the T-shirt and on the braid of the headband. If needed, use wire cutters to cut the thread loop off the back of the buttons. Let pieces dry before moving.

Tournaments bring huge economic impact, positive exposure to Henrico
Pity the last-minute traveler who needs a weekend hotel room in Henrico County this month.
They're likely all gone – reserved months ahead of time – by players, coaches, parents and fans of the Jefferson Cup soccer tournament, a three-weekend event that began last weekend and will involve 916 teams from 35 states and Canada before wrapping up March 25.
By its conclusion, the 916-team tournament will have brought more than 13,500 athletes and an estimated 20,250 spectators to Henrico and Metro Richmond, filling about 21,000 hotel room nights and contributing more than $15 million to the local economy.
And though the tournament is the most significant recreational sports event in the region, it's not the only one helping to raise Henrico's profile nationally while making a positive impression on its bottom line.
In Fiscal Year 2011 (which concluded June 30, 2011), nine youth and adult sporting events in Henrico County contributed $100,000 or more apiece to the county's economy – including six that generated more than $1 million apiece – by drawing athletes from 1,999 teams, associated spectators and other visitors to the county from outside
the region.
In total, the economic impact felt by Henrico County as the result of recreational sports tourism during that time period totaled nearly $30 million, according to figures provided by county officials.
Factor in the professional sports – in the form of two NASCAR Sprint Cup Series and Nationwide Series races that take place each May and September at Richmond International Raceway in Henrico, drawing a total of more than 300,000 fans from all 50 states to the county and an estimated regional economic impact of $417 million annually – and
the effects of sports tourism here are clear.
"It means a lot of things," Henrico Recreation and Parks Director Neil Luther said. "It certainly promotes spending in Henrico but it also is a good way to represent the county to these visitors who are coming in."
Alive and kicking
When the Richmond Strikers hosted the first Jefferson Cup travel tournament in 1980, it's likely that no one associated with the organization could have known what it would become. In the two decades after that first event with a handful of teams, the tournament steadily expanded and attracted more teams from outside the region and the state.
By 2005, it was drawing nearly 250 boys teams and 250 girls teams. Then the recession hit in late 2007, and participation in the tournament. . . increased. The Jefferson Cup has nearly doubled in size during the past seven years, growing despite the sagging national economy during a time when families are cutting their own budgets and watching every dime.
But perhaps that shouldn't come as a surprise.
"Youth sports is fairly recession-proof," said Scott Turner, the executive director of the Richmond Strikers Soccer Club, which host and organizes the tournament.
Luther agreed.
"Parents are spending a lot of money – maybe a thousand dollars a year to enroll their kids in a travel team," Luther said. "We're seeing the evidence backed up in national trends. People are making choices whether they're just going on a family vacation or combining that with somewhere their children are going to be in a tournament."
Today, the Jefferson Cup has grown into the largest single youth soccer travel tournament in the United States and one of the "big five" tournaments recognized as the best nationally (the others are held in Dallas, Orlando, San Diego and Washington, D.C.). It features competitions in age divisions from Under-10 through Under-19 and is divided into three weekends; March 9-11 for boys, March 16-18 for girls and March 23-25 for teams trying to qualify for next year's event.
"The economic impact is huge for our county," Turner said. "I've lived here for 25 years, and seen the growth."
Though more than 1,400 teams applied for this year's Jefferson Cup, tournament organizers rejected some 500 applications because those teams did not meet their high standards for inclusion. Despite the rejection, this year's field grew by more than 100 teams compared with last year's.
Tournament directors spend weeks reviewing each team's performance during the previous year and running analytical models to ensure only the top teams are included, Turner said.
"We do our homework. Not only do we pick the highest quality games, but we bracket those games so they are very competitive," he said. "Nobody wants to fly into Richmond from California and win every game 5-0."
The steady growth of youth soccer in the United States has caught the attention of localities throughout the nation, many of which are angling to attract visitors and tourism dollars by hosting similar tournaments. But Metro Richmond has a leg up, Turner said.
"We're aware this is a competitive market. Major complexes being built as we speak," he said. "We feel like we've created a first-mover advantage. As long as we can deliver a high quality product, we believe teams will continue to come back."
Impact of other sports
Though soccer clearly is the driving force behind the lion's share of the economic impact felt by recreational sports tourism in Henrico, other sports are doing their part, too.
In recent years, Henrico has hosted a number of state, regional and national Babe Ruth Baseball and Softball tournaments in Varina and Glen Allen, including last year's 14U Babe Ruth Baseball World Series at RF&P Stadium in Glen Allen. With those events under its belt, the county seems to have established itself in the rotation for future events.
Last year's World Series, in which the home team fell one run short against a team from Oregon in the title game, served as a showcase not only to the teams and their supporters who made the trip, but also to those who could not. Henrico officials streamed all games live online for free, something most other host sites offer for a fee, if they offer it at all.
"After the tournament, I got an e-mail from a lady from Texas who was able to stream games," Luther said. "She just said it was wonderful, it was a marvelous experience and that she was able to "be" here. She remembers Henrico County, and her son remembers Henrico County. That's what this emphasis on sports tourism is all about, making
those connections."
The county also is home to the Richmond Volleyball Club, located near Staples Mill Road and I-64, which hosts several large tournaments each year as well as local and regional events for adults, youngsters and high school teams.
In the past 12 months, RVC's two largest tournaments combined to create an estimated economic impact of $3 million for the region, according to officials.
The 2011 South Atlantic Championship/Boys' East Coast Championships last Memorial Day weekend drew 220 teams and more than 6,000 players and spectators to the Greater Richmond Convention Center, while January's 2012 Monument City Classic attracted 280 teams and more than 8,500 players and spectators. In both cases, nearly all the
teams came from outside the region.
Because of its stranglehold on the local hotel market, Henrico benefits from events such as those even when they take place in another locality.
The MRCVB estimates that each out-of-town visitor that comes to the region for a sports tournament spends an average of $208 per day. Hotel operators in the county feel the positive effects of that spending.
"We're booked all weekend," said Dan Rand, sales director at the Comfort Suites hotel in Innsbrook, describing the impact of the Jefferson Cup tournament. "Typically we're booked a couple of months in advance of these tournaments."
Rand estimated that the hotel is completely booked about four to five times a year – and just about each occasion is directly related to a recreational sporting event or a NASCAR race. Recently, the nearby SkateNation Plus facility has helped fill a number of rooms at the hotel through ice hockey tournaments, Rand said.
SkateNation Plus is the only ice skating rink in Henrico and one of two primary facilities in the region and is home to youth and adult ice hockey leagues and tournaments, as well as figure skating competitions. It also attracts recreational ice skaters from the region and state.
Becoming proactive
During the past three fiscal years, sports tourism for recreational sporting events in Henrico has ranged between about $21 million and $33 million, according to county statistics.
While that immediate impact primarily is felt in the hospitality industry – through hotel stays and restaurant visits – and to a lesser extent through retail expenditures, the long-term benefits, though more difficult to measure, may be even greater to Henrico.
Tournaments and other sporting events provide an opportunity for the county to make a name for itself nationally by putting its best foot forward to tens of thousands of new visitors annually.
"Every one of them is potentially a customer, potentially a resident," Luther said. "They may make a lot of decisions based on their first experience, their first experiences here."
Tournaments like the Jefferson Cup present Henrico with a unique opportunity to capture far-away visitors and entice them to stay a few extra nights to enjoy the county's history, shopping, performing arts and other amenities.
In an attempt to become more pro-active, Henrico officials recently created a new position for a tourism supervisor and hired former Henrico County Public Schools Public Information Director Dawn Miller to fill it. Miller is tasked with promoting all aspects of the county – including sports – to potential visitors and organizations.
"Sports tourism is one of the largest parts of travel right now [to Henrico]," said Miller, who has spent two weeks in the new position. "We've got different areas that we can plug other tournaments into. It's an exciting future here for sports tourism."
The climate is right for the county to capitalize on its assets, Luther said.
"We're well positioned because of our facilities, exceptional staff, we have most of the hotel rooms in the area [nearly 54 percent of those in Metro Richmond, or 9,021 total], destination shopping – a lot of things that come together nicely for these people who come to town. Sports tournament venues are things that drive repeat visitation for your locality. They're not just a one-and-done type event."
A study conducted by the Richmond Metropolitan Convention and Visitors Bureau found that 93 percent of all visitors to the region planned to return – 44 percent within a year, and 61 percent within two years.
When they do come back, Luther wants them to know where they're headed.
"We want them to know and love Henrico," he said.

A fun, fuzzy ride
'Muppets Most Wanted' worthy of its franchise
Do Muppets sleep? It's hard to say.
They don't really eat (or breathe, as far as anyone can tell). And only occasionally do they have visible, functioning legs.
As far as anyone knows, sleeping might be off the table. And that makes it very hard to accuse the Muppets of sleepwalking through their latest feature, Muppets Most Wanted – even if that's exactly what's going on.
Jim Henson's beloved creations were back in a big way after 2011's The Muppets, with fame and fortune and even an Oscar, a first for the group ("Rainbow Connection" was nominated, yet somehow failed to collect at the '79 ceremony). > Read more.

Yeah, I know, but I took this job to get away from the very loud music, and it payed a lot moreOriginally posted by bignaf:
hey Paul. I can sympathize. I am not applying for jobs in places where they have loud ehhhmmm.... music playing, I wouldn't be able to stand it. there's a ice cream place nearby that's hiring but they have loud annoying music..
Hello and thanks.Originally posted by barfle:
Hi, Paul, and welcome to the pit.
Thats the way they always do it in all factory's, but most of the time the main man (the big boss) or department head has the control over the radio. But I'm glad that he also does'nt like loud music.My mother worked in a factory where the people had their own radios and would blast that nasty old rock and roll music. Eventually, she and dad picked up a radio and wired the entire place with speakers.
Thanks, and sure! The more I listen to this radio station, the more I get control over myselfOriginally posted by operatenor:
Paul, welcome to the board. Gotta keep that temper in check, eh?
Really? Well, then it's time we introduce this to the stores in my country ! The only store I know who playes classical music is the classical CD store just 25 miles away.Originally posted by dkm32:
The store on the other side of town plays Classical Music. I do my "takes a bit of time" shopping there. I make sure the manager knows that is the reason I'm shopping there and the extra distance I travel to get there. They get a lot of compliments on the music.
