Bruce MacArthur Elliott
Bruce MacArthur Elliott, 70, of Bayfield, died Friday, Dec. 14, 2012, at his home.
Mr. Elliot was born March 30, 1942, in Buffalo, Minn., to Harvey and Nellie (Varner) Elliott. He graduated from St. Cloud State University and then earned a Master of Divinity from Bethel Seminary in St. Paul, Minn.
On Sept. 16, 1966, he married Barbara Anderson from Dassel, Minn.
Throughout his life he worked as a pastor, probation officer, restaurateur, insurance broker, and most recently an investment advisor with the McAlvany Financial Group in Durango, where he worked until his death.
He loved to serve, and his passion was to help those in need and to be a father to the fatherless, said his wife, Barbara. He cherished his family, which was his pride and joy. He truly lived life for them, his wife said.
He served on numerous committees and boards.
Mr. Elliot is also survived by his son, Kirk Elliott of Bayfield; daughter Karrie Hardesty of Trussville, Ala.; sisters Beverly Barringer of Annandale, Minn., Ginny Russell of Bloomington, Minn., and Patricia Olson, and Zella LaLiberte both of Edina, Minn.; brother Tom Elliott, of Benson, Ariz.; and five grandchildren.
A celebration of his life will be held at 3 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 20, 2012, at Pine Valley Church, 1328 Country Road 501, in Bayfield. Pastor Scott Kujath will officiate.

We Make Demoing Easy!
Anyone in the continental 48 Unites States may demo up to four reels for six full days. The only cost to you is the shipping charges which are calculated based on your zip code. It's most economical to demo four reels. The reels will be delivered by UPS within two days. You return them the following week on the same day of the week you received them. For example, if they arrive on a Monday, you ship them back the following Monday. Included in the reel box is a postage-paid return label so all you have to do is seal the reels back in the box, put the return label over the original label and take the box to a staffed UPS drop off center or any UPS driver. You can locate the drop off center nearest you using the UPS web page (be sure to select "staffed" for the drop off location type).
Note: Demo orders can only be shipped to the billing address for the credit card submitted with the order.
Here's How to Demo
- Select the reel you want from the list of demos below. If the reel demo you want is checked out, the expected date of return will be shown. Your order will ship as soon as that demo is returned to us.
- Enter your zip code for calculating the shipping charges. This charge includes freight in both directions - there is no additional freight charge to return the demos. The charge is based on weight and distance. You may include items other than demo reels on your order; the portion of the freight charge to you will increase but the return portion will be unaffected.
- Click Add Demo to put the demo you selected in your shopping basket. You'll then be shown the contents of your shopping basket along with recommendations for other reels to demo. You can roam around our site adding demos or other items to your order. When you're ready to check out, you can click either the View Order or Check Out links in the navigation bar of any page
- Demo orders with back ordered items other than demo reels will be separated into two orders. The back ordered items on orders over $50 will be shipped without shipping charges. Any orders less than $50 will incur shipping charges for back ordered items.
- First time customers are more than welcome to participate in our demo program however there are certain requirements. First time customers may only demo up to two reels. Depending on which reels are chosen a charge of either $250 or $500 will be billed to the credit card submitted with the order. Once the reels have been returned to Tackle Warehouse the charge will be reversed. A valid phone number and email address are required and all first time customers will be contacted by phone to explain the authorization process.

Chapter 4
Jesus gives the parables of the sower, the candle under a bushel, the seed growing secretly, and the mustard seed—He stills the tempest.
1 And he began again to teach by the
2 And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his
3 Hearken; Behold, there went out a
4 And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.
5 And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:
6 But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.
7 And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.
8 And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.
9 And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
10 And when he was

12 That seeing they may see, and not
13 And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?
14 ¶The sower soweth the word.
15 And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard,
16 And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately
17 And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when

24 And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you:
26 ¶And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground;
27 And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and

31 It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:
32 But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it.
33 And with many such parables spake he the word unto them, as they were
34 But without a parable spake he not unto them: and when they were alone, he expounded all things to his disciples.
35 And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.
36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.
37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.

39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea,

41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?

Norway's population is a little more than 4.5 million citizens. To put this in perspective, this is about half the population of New York City! Pulmonary hypertension is a rare disease and with such a low population this means that the number of PH patients in Norway is very low. In fact, there are only twelve patients at the moment who use IV-medicine or take medicine administered subcutaneously. All in all, the estimated Norwegian PH population is less than 100. This makes PHA Norway a very useful tool for PH patients to locate each other, exchange experiences and make them aware that even though the disease is rare, there are other people in the country in the same situation as themselves.
Today, the Norwegian PH organization consists of about 25 people. These are patients or close relatives to patients. There are advantages of being such a small group. We get to know each other well and can be of great support to each other. On the other hand, the disadvantages are also numerous. It is difficult for us to create awareness in the general population for our disease, to apply political pressure, etc. It therefore made sense for us to connect to a larger organization. The Norwegian Heart and Lung Association (LHL) became a natural choice.
LHL has approximately 45,000 members. It was important for us not to get lost in this large organization, and LHL was sensitive to our concern. They made us one of their seven interest groups. In this way, we are an organization within an organization, and we are given a large degree of freedom. We have, for instance, our own web pages and discussion forum with a link on LHL's home page. LHL takes care of all the organizational work and provides a great opportunity for us to reach out to the public. For example, they have promised to feature our small interest group in their next publication, which will be sent out to all their members and most hospitals and medical centers in Norway. In addition, they did not object to us signing a Memorandum of Understanding with PHA (US).
Due to the small population, Norway does not have many specialized PH doctors, nor a specialized PH center. However, Norway is a rich country (mostly because of the North Sea oil) and the medical facilities are excellent. Norway has a universal health care system, which is funded by taxes. This means that everyone is equally entitled to good medical services. We are fortunate in that there are no insurance issues related to medical coverage. PH patients in Norway receive free medical services and medication.

While continuing to produce some of Illinois' finest wine, Alto opened a new tasting room in Champaign, IL, and began distributing throughout the state and surrounding regions. Celebrating 25 years in business in 2013, Alto constructed a new, modern tasting room next to the vineyard in Alto Pass. Resting atop the new facility lies an outdoor deck for customers to take in the view on one of southern Illinois' oldest vineyards – a truly breathtaking sight that exemplifies the beauty of the Shawnee National Forest and Illinois wine country.

Carl Zeiss Distagon T 35mm f/1.4 ZF2 Nikon
Further readings for the Carl Zeiss Distagon T 35mm f/1.4 ZF2 Nikon
To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
Following on from our series of selecting the best lenses for the Nikon D800 with its potential for massively detailed images from the 36Mpix sensor, we've now turned our attention to that camera's younger sibling, the 24Mpix D600.
Sigma 35mm f1.4 DG HSM Nikon Mount review: the definitive high-speed 35mm wide-angle lens for DSLRs?
After years of unadventurous, unexciting "slow" speed zooms "fast", high-quality primes are experiencing a comeback thanks to the popularity of full-frame DSLRs and the merging of video capture. The moderately wide 35mm focal length has seen numerous new versions from most lens makers over the last two years or so, including this ultra-high speed offering from Sigma. Read on to see how well this lens fares on the highest resolution DSLR currently available.
Launched in April 2012, this wide-angle prime lens from Nikon, with a fast maximum aperture of f/1.8, suggests it may be a great choice for landscape, architectural and reportage photography. A light weight of 330g also ensures it's easy to travel with and won't weigh heavily in your bag.
Announced at PhotoKina 2010, the Zeiss 35mm 1.4 lenses for Canon and Nikon are arriving on the market and have now been tested on DxOMark.
With these new lenses, the German brand extends its already extensive line of fast wide-angle lenses such as the Carl Zeiss Distagon T 28mm f/2 ZE Canon and the Carl Zeiss Distagon T 28mm f/2 ZF2 Nikon.

YSL Arty Ring in Turquoise, sz 5 (taped)
I purchased both of these pre-owned. I don't discriminate against pre-owned Chanel as long as it's in excellent condition and comes with all the original packaging (box, dustbag, tags, auth card). I have plenty of other things to spend the money saved on. The current retail price of the PST is around $1600, and the rectangular caviar WOC goes for around $1295.
Here is an oldie but goodie from Alterations Needed on the East/West and classic medium flap. I'm interested in getting a taupe or colorful small flap next, but the original small size seems hard to come by these days.

By Racheal LocklearPH Patient
Racheal Locklear
In May 2007, I collapsed while touring in India with a church group. Except for a touch of bronchitis, I was completely healthy and had no idea why I could not breathe well. After a battery of tests in India and a visit to a pulmonologist in the United States, I was sent to Dr. Ivan Robbins, a PH specialist, at Vanderbilt Hospital. Dr. Robbins diagnosed me with idiopathic pulmonary hypertension. He and his nurse, Cindy Fink, were so helpful to me.
In 2008, I left the luxury of private health insurance when my husband left his job. We moved to St. Louis, Mo., for family support, and I began relying on my veteran's benefits, using the St. Louis Veterans Affairs (VA) Hospital.
The VA provides a medical benefits package to all enrolled veterans who are released from active duty with anything but a dishonorable discharge. This comprehensive plan provides a full range of preventive outpatient and inpatient services within the VA healthcare system.
The VA in St. Louis did not have a PH specialist, but they accepted my request to visit a specialist at Barnes Hospital at Washington University using my Medicare to cover the visits. Dr. Murali Chakinala, my new PH specialist, would make treatment recommendations to my pulmonologist. In turn, my pulmonologist continued to prescribe my costly PH medications, which the VA continued to cover.
In 2009, we moved to Jacksonville, Fla. where I began seeing the VA in Gainesville. My pulmonologist here told me I had to be treated by the VA exclusively if I were to receive medications through the VA system, and the VA refused to prescribe medications and allow me to see a specialist at a non-VA hospital using my Medicare. I did as my pulmonologist directed.
My pulmonologist began taking me off Flolan™ and adding bosentan. My health began to deteriorate. I was back on oxygen 24/7, I could no longer do my exercise walks and I was feeling terrible. I asked her to request an exception so I could see a doctor outside of the VA. She said that "they" don't approve any exceptions to see outside doctors.
At this point, I decided to fight the system. I contacted the patient advocate at the VA. The patient advocate acts as a liaison between the patient and the medical center. They help to resolve complaints and concerns of the patient in a timely manner. I wrote emails to my representative, my senators, the governor and the president in hopes of getting the VA to allow me to see a PH specialist.
About one week after I sent my emails, staff from my representative's office (Representative Ander Crenshaw, R-FL) directed me to resubmit my request for outside treatment to the VA as fee-based. If approved, the VA would pay the fee of visiting a physician outside the system, allowing me to see a PH specialist. About two weeks after I resubmitted the request, I was approved to see Dr. Kamal Mubarak at Shands Hospital at the University of Florida.
Maneuvering through a government system can be confusing and disconcerting sometimes, but don't give up! Here are a few words of advice for anyone going through the VA health system:

Contact Tom Puckett
I grew up in West Seneca, interviewed a presidential candidate at age 10, and signed off a Buffalo radio newsroom (THREE TIMES NO LESS!!). Just a sampling of what my life and career's been like.
I grew up in West Seneca, interviewed a presidential candidate at age 10, and signed off a Buffalo radio newsroom (THREE TIMES NO LESS!!). Just a sampling of what my life and career's been like.
Growing up in West Seneca, my dream was to be in Ted Darling's seat, calling play-by-play for the Buffalo Sabres. Since that job really hasn't opened in my lifetime, I looked for other ways to break into broadcasting.
If you watched "Reading Rainbow" in the 1980s, you probably saw a little chubby guy wearing a 77 t-shirt reviewing a couple of books. Yes, friends, that was me at the age of 8. I auditioned with a bunch of other kids in the area and got picked to do a pair of book reviews for the show. If you catch the show on the right Monday or Wednesday, you'll see LeVar Burton with more hair and me much shorter.
I actually got into journalism at age 7, writing occasional sports articles for the Lackawanna Front Page. I made it a habit of turning autograph meet and greets with area athletes at now defunct stores into a quick interview section. I still remember interviewing Rod Kush in 1984 at AM&A's and only eight people were in line all night.
My foray into news began at 10, when Walter Mondale came to town on his presidential campaign. I did a little wrangling with help from then Democratic party chairman Joe Crangle to get an "exclusive" interview (translation: photo op) with Mondale. A picture of me with the former Vice-President made to the national wires.
I moved on to high school at West Seneca East Senior, where I was on the school radio station (translation:morning announcements) and was a sports columnist for the Trojan Times newspaper. In 1992, Bill Clinton took the White House, and I took on the Communcation Arts program at Gannon University in Erie, PA. I anchored news (translation: rewriting articles from the afternoon paper) and had my own morning show (wasn't as funny as I thought). I graduated one semester early in December 1995.
During my senior year in 1995, I was hired by WLKK Radio in Erie to become weekend news anchor. I was promoted to full time staffer in February 1996, where I stayed for a little more than a year. I returned home to Buffalo to work at WNED as a part time reporter and weekend morning board operator. I applied for a sports reporter opening at WGR in the summer of 1997, and ended up becoming the overnight anchor at the station for two years, moving to evening anchor until WGR's news department closed down in 2000. I signed the news department off, but got cut off as I was tagging out. Larry Hunter said, "Let's do that again" and I screwed up, so we had take three...where I finally said goodbye.
After spending about two months as assignment editor at Channel 4, I joined WBEN as a night reporter, then anchor in the summer of 2000. In 2002, Buffalo's Evening News was revamped and I have taken the hour format by the horns ever since.
In my spare time, I'm usually playing poker, usually on the computer or occasionally in the casino. I've played a couple of tournaments and won a good chunk of change, but I'm still waiting for that World Series main event bracelet. I also try (poorly) to get in a workout or two, but that is usually trumped by enjoying good food (suicidal chicken wings and a certain cheesesteak are two of my mortal weaknesses). Every Thanksgiving morning since 2003, I've helped jump start the holiday for thousands of runners as the MC of the YMCA Delaware Turkey Trot.
I live in South Buffalo, and am the proud godfather of a little boy, Christopher Heath.
