National Association of Atomic Veterans, Inc.
A tax exempt organization
My wife and I had the pleasure of attending the September 2016 NAAV convention in Las Vegas for the first time.
It was great to meet many of you and now have a face to go with the voices. Seeing the Atomic Museum for the first time was also a treat. Our plan to tour the Nevada nuclear test site was thwarted by thieves
breaking into our car. I was so looking forward to that activity, oh well. During the convention I was drafted into the Vice Commander position from the National Director At Large position. I still retain the
Minnesota State Co - Commander position.
My Atomic Veteran experience was being part of the Enewetak Atoll Radiological Cleanup Project that took place
from 1977 to 1980.
We are well on our way to getting our three pieces of legislation (Atomic Veteran Service Medal Act. Mark Takai
Atomic Veterans Healthcare Parity Act (H.R. 632 & S283 115th session), and the National Atomic Veterans Day (July 16th} introduced in the 115th legislative session. I believe all will be introduced by the end of
February 2017. We are looking for a Senator to introduce the National Atomic Veterans Day (July 16th) Bill. It is imperative that we encourage our friends, relatives, and each other to contact our Senators and
Congressmen to cosponsor these Bills. Updates and info will be coming on the www.Project180.Today web site
I'm hoping to be able to make it to Washington DC May 20th, 2017 for Operation Stand Together. I hope many
of you can also make it to this gathering.
I look forward to working for and with all of you,as well as, meeting more of you at the 2017 NAAV Conference
in Branson, MO.
Thank you, Keith Kiefer

Maybe I just have a realllllly perverted mind, but I giggled a lot when I saw this error. Thinking of someone's concert getting fisted just brings giggles and smirks to my lips, you know? (I giggle at any funny-sounding use of fist or fisted; watching a televised baseball game where a sportscaster says the ball got fisted makes me momentarily turn my attention away from Joe Mauer's sweet butt and makes me giggle.)

Cano Sets Record In HR Derby Win
New York Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano beat out Boston Red Sox sluggers Adrian Gonzalez and David Ortiz in this year's annual MLB All-Star Home Run Derby Monday at Chase Field. Cano outslugged Gonzalez with a record breaking 12 homers in the final round. Both finalists belted 20 apiece in the first two rounds to clear the rest of the field.
Cano's performance certainly stood out more so in light of the six-year veteran choosing his father to pitch to him. "When he called me at home, that he wanted me to come to the United States because he's going to be in the Home Run Derby, I said, 'I'll be happy to pitch to you,' because that's what I do at home," said father Jose Cano, former Houston Astros pitcher.
Defending champion David Ortiz and Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Prince Fielder tied at the #3 spot with 9 homers each. Toronto's Jose Bautista blasted 4 home runs in total. Milwaukee's Rickie Weeks and LA's Matt Kemp finished with 2 and 3, respectively. Tonight's All-Star game is set to start up at 8:00 PM ET.

The 'lack of brand identity' is what Leonardo Fioravanti will need to work on as the recently appointed Chief Design Officer of Beijing Automotive Group. Fioravanti, 74 years old, had designed the Ferrari Daytona and 288 GTO. He now oversees the task of transforming the automaker into a global premium car brand. Beijing Automotive Group had started off in the industry as a producer of sidecar motorcycles for the Korean War.
Last April, the company got Fioravanti as a consultant, giving him the title of Chief Design Officer. At the recent Beijing auto show, the company introduced a prototype luxury sedan. Fioravanti said that by 2025, the company will be producing "world-class" cars. Fioravanti began his career with Pininfarina, the design studio that created the Ferrari 458 Italia and Maserati GranCabrio convertible.
He said that Chinese automakers share the problem of getting their own identity and styling language. Fioravanti believes that whoever achieves this first would be the winner. Foreign automakers' slice in the market share in China is widening, with General Motors and Volkswagen Group leading the pack.
Beijing Auto is one of several Chinese carmakers that have hired star designers who could help polish their brands and reverse a widening gap in market share led by General Motors and Volkswagen Group. Meanwhile, the domestic automakers have made progress when it comes to reliability and safety and are now focusing on their branding.
The China Association of Automobile Manufacturers said that during the first five months of 2012, the Chinese brands experienced a decline in the sedan and compact-car sales from 31.4% a year ago to 27.5%. There are no homegrown Chinese brands in the top 10 passenger-vehicle models by sales this year.
But as the market matures, Chinese automakers' stakes are growing and they are competing for market share to edge out several brands. Last month, the average passenger-vehicle prices dropped by the most on a month-on-month basis since June 2010, as dealerships cut prices to cut an excess of unsold automobiles that carmakers are pushing into showrooms.

Now we know who to blame: Armstrong Floors.
Dear Reader, you know that I love antiquing and junking. Every now and then you find a lovely piece of antique furniture that someone ruined at some time in the past by painting it. "Who would do that?" one often asks themselves. Or my favorite - like an 1840s dresser that someone in the 1960s decided to "antique" with paint. Isn't 120 years old in 1968 terms already an antique?
I found this on the inside cover of an old issue of American Home Magazine, and Reader, Cookie was speechless. And given I was in loo was just coincidence.
Well, lets start right here in the narrative:
So here we have the narrative. A housewife with a gaggle of furniture styles asks an old man who sells LINOLEUM for design advice. So what does he do?
He sells he LINOLEUM for her LIVING ROOM FLOOR. Oh, bitch please!
Today, his alone would spark a comment like "Tom, you aren't going to be happy honey, but the floor people just ripped up the 1960s carpet and instead of hardwood, they found linoleum with an asbestos backing glued to the hardwood. We're going to have to call in a environmental clean up company. What? How would I know who the hell would lay down linoleum floor on hardwood?"
Well we know know, it was Mr. Hart who ruined the floor.
Back in the narrative Mr. Hart then picks the wall color and the accent wallpaper, and tells her to PAINT THE VICTORIAN CHAIRS WHITE. Seriously, what the hey?
On Antiques Roadshow, they would draw a collective gasp and clutching of pearls. "The paint has ruined the value."
Then, and this is my favorite part, he has her hand a floor to ceiling curtain in mid room so she can back up a dilapidated spinnet piano from 1910, which get a coat of paint. So the piano is on one side of the drape, and the sofa on the other side. Isn't that clever?
Then he sells her some flea market tables and lamps. And he mounts coach lights way up top of the fireplace. Evidently no one has that coach lights belong on coaches, not walls. But he's not done, oh no he's not!
His cherry on top for the room is, drum roll, please: a huge ass black ceramic eagle to perch right over the fireplace. Quelle horreur!
What is it with people and Eagles? In nature, they are majestic. But perched above a fireplace, it becomes a conversation piece. In an flea market today it would bring "What do you do with it? Put it on the mantle? Oh. Bitch. Please. You are too funny. Now seriously, what does one do with it? Make it into a bird bath with a metal garbage can lid?"
And the Eagle thing is all over freaking Baltimore. If Baltimore was the setting for an ironic show like Portlandia where you "put a bird on it", the catch phrase would be "slap a spread eagle on it." They are every where.
So if you have ever wondered why someone would do something stupid to a perfectly knick knack, or buy a huge black eagle, you got your answer. Armstrong - the tile people put them up to it.
So what's your favorite part of the room above?
15 comments:
The lunatic but dead parents of the estate we bought our house from apparently had a visit from that Hart bastard. We ripped up the shag carpet throughout our 19-teens Craftsman-ish house to find that that assholes had laid 'wood-look' linoleum over the oak floors. Working a square foot a day at a time, we finally reclaimed the dining room floor. However, the living room and hallway remain - sigh. The 50s-70s were an awful time for homes.ReplyDelete
And here's the bad news. If had asbestos in the backing, then you have a hazmat situation.ReplyDeleteReplies
My dad's house had asbestos linoleum in the kitchen, as did my daughter's house. We left it in place and floored over it.Delete
I think what bothers me the most is the fake authority figures giving this ruinous advice.
i'm about to sheet vinyl the ceilings in my house!ReplyDelete
(but i'll use GAF....i'm a sap for hank fonda).
My idiot father in law, refinished every single piece of antique furniture they had inherited from various family members. When Mr. Proud As Punch showed them off to me, I asked him why he felt the need to ruin valuable antiques. I received regifted perfume that year for Christmas...ReplyDelete
This actually reminds me of my childhood in suburban (okay, rural) Pittsburgh (an hour outside the city is rual, not suburban). Anyway, colonial/early American was all the rage in the late 60's/early 70's. The color pallet ranged a full four tones out of the full spectrum - red, orange, yellow and green.ReplyDelete
I have two Heywood Wakefield tables that my parents got from my grandmother and promptly had refinished in "oak." When, at some point in casual, but pertinent, conversation, I mentioned that the refinishing had diminished their value (the tables' value, not my parents) my father exploded, saying they NEVER would have done such a thing because they couldn't afford it. Um, sorry, but wrong; I remember the tables' original blond finish. And why oh why did people think that faux wood linoleum is better than real wood?ReplyDelete
I have a Settee that came over the mountains to Ohio in 1811 with my great great great great grandparents. When my mother rescued it from its storage place, my father had it taken to the brother in law of a friends upholstery store. The finish was fine, and original. When my mother went to pick out fabrics, the upholster showed her the love seat. He had had it striped and antiqued in baby puke brown. My mother was livid, and told him just to deliver it as is, covered in muslin, and it sat like that for twenty years. I mean why do you need to antique an antique?ReplyDelete
I have a cork paneled wall, circa 1974. I still love it!ReplyDeleteReplies
Cork is cool, again. But this style up above never came back, and for that I am grateful.Delete
Cookie, I hope you guys don't mind if I chime in from time to time, even though I don't have an active blog. You and this "group" make me smile (Norma, Jon, Jon, LX,MJ, Mr. Peenee, yadah, yadah, yadah.)Delete
Grouchy, by all means, speak up! Your name makes he happy as well.Delete
"So what's your favorite part of the room above?"ReplyDelete
The exit.
The drapes. In the psychotic game room.ReplyDelete

B. Wurtz
Curated by Nic Tammens
March 26 - April 4, 2015
B.Wurtz works from a basement studio in his home on Manhattan's Lower East Side.
This local fact is attested to by the plastic shopping bags and newsprint circulars that appear in his work. As formal objects, they don't make loud claims about their origins but nonetheless transmit street addresses and places of business from the bottom of this long thin island. Like plenty of artists, Wurtz is affected by what is local and what is consumed. His work is underpinned by this ethic. It often speaks from a neighborhood or reads like the contents of a hamper:
"BLACK PLUMS $1.29 lb."
"Food Bazaar"
"USDA Whole Pork Shoulder Picnic 99c lb."
"RITE AID Pharmacy, with us it's personal."
"H. Brickman & Sons."
"Sweet Yams 59c lb."
Most of the work in this exhibition was made while the artist was in residence at Dieu Donne, a workshop dedicated to paper craft in Midtown. Here Wurtz fabricated assemblages with paper and objects that are relatively lightweight, with the intention that they would be easily transportable to Australia. This consideration isn't absolute in Wurtz's work, but was prescriptive for making the current exhibition light and cheap. Packed in two boxes, these works were sent from a USPS post office on the Lower East Side and delivered to North Melbourne by Australia Post.
Wurtz appears courtesy of Metro Pictures, New York.
Thanks to Rob Halverson, Joshua Petherick, Sari de Mallory, Matt Hinkley, Helen Johnson, Fayen d'Evie, Ask Kilmartin, Lisa Radon, Ellena Savage, Yale Union, and "Elizabeth".

Press Release:
"...It contained seven objects. The slender fluted bone, surely formed for flight, surely from the wing of some large bird. Three archaic circuitboards, faced with mazes of gold. A smooth white sphere of baked clay. An age-blackened fragment of lace. A fingerlength segment of what she assumed was bone from a human wrist, grayish white, inset smoothly with the silicon shaft of a small instrument that must once have ridden flush with the surface of the skin - but the thing's face was seared and blackened."

STRETCH is a comprehensive retrospective of work by artist Alexandra Bircken, showing both early and new pieces.
A fundamental parameter of her work is experimentation with materials, with the body as a key point of departure. Her multi-layered, meticulously-constructed sculptures explore skin as covering, as an organ and a cellular structure, but also as a boundary between inside and outside.
Materials used in her objects are notable for their strikingly diverse, often contradictory qualities: plaster models, waxes, mannequin fragments and pieces of clothing stand in for body parts; structures packed with wool are used as set pieces and interwoven with one another.
Texts by Alexandra Bircken, Thomas Brinkmann, Friedrich Wolfram Heubac, Kathleen Rahn, Claire Le Restif, Michael Stoeber, Susanne Titz.
Published on the occasion of the exhibition, Alexandra Bircken: STRETCH at Kunstverein Hannover (1 October – 27 November 2016); Museum Abteiberg Mönchengladbach (26 March – 25 June 2017); and Centre d'artcontemporain d'Ivry – le Crédac (8 September – 17 December 2017).

"I began having better sex in the weeks I read and reread Larissa Pham's debut novel, Fantasian, and if there is any justification for spending money on literature, that's got to be at the top of the list"
—Ben Fama, BOMB Magazine
A young Asian woman's life at Yale takes a dizzying turn when she meets Dolores—her doppelgänger—at a party. As they begin to merge into each other's social and sexual worlds, it becomes impossible to tell where one girl ends and the other begins. When Dolores' boyfriend and his twin brother enter into this pas de deux, identities and couplings spin off into a sinister and perverse web of illusions. Fantasian is Single White Female for the dawn of a new sexual fluidity.
Fantasian by Larissa Pham is one of the New Lovers, a series of short erotic fiction published by Badlands Unlimited. Inspired by Maurice Girodias' legendary Olympia Press, New Lovers features the raw and uncut writings of authors new to the erotic romance genre. Each story has its own unique take on relationships, intimacy, and sex, as well as the complexities that bedevil contemporary life and culture today.
Each novella in the New Lovers series is an independent story of about 12,000 – 18,000 words in length. Fantasian weaves a complex web of desire, obsession, and deception that goes deep into the mind games of college couplings.
The design of New Lovers pays homage to the classic covers of the books published by Olympia Press. The "soft-touch" lamination and embossed lettering on the front covers of the paperback editions make these novellas a precious edition to any library and feature special color endpaper artworks by Paul Chan.

Around 1980 in Rome, a small cooperative around film critics Michele Mancini and Giuseppe Perrella produced a mysterious, elaborate and yet effortless looking 600-page book of black-and-white photographs entitled Pier Paolo Pasolini: Corpi e Luoghi (Theorema 1981). According to some reviews of the time this is the most Pasolinian publication to date (Alberto Farrasino), an indispensable tool for future research (Tullio Kezich), not just an illustrated book but a unique model of critique (Adriano Aprà).
With its relentless and yet playful classification of some 2,000 film stills ranged under the categories of "bodies" and "places", whatever page we turn to, Mancini and Perrella stage an ever-shifting space. With a hidden reference to Walter Benjamin and a correspondingly revolutionary attitude, quotation here is understood as a form of "appropriation", as a practical use of an archive.
In keeping with the great filmmaker's credo, Pier Paolo Pasolini: Corpi e Luoghi is a colossal attempt to take this enormous amount of material, in book form, where it wants to go. In the introduction, Mancini and Perrella describe their approach similar to the «analytic field» that they see in the film set: «Through film Pasolini is able to elicit out that sort of unconscious, never talked about code through which in daily life we operate and relate to the world. He makes visible a miscellany of aphasic and hidden practices, a ‹primitive› realm normally concealed from our ‹enlightened› societies.»
Entitled Pasolini's Bodies and Places and translated by Ann Goldstein and Jobst Grapow, this new quasi-facsimiled edition in English is a first step towards an exploration of the original. Mancini and Perrella introduce their compilation of quoted images with a compilation of texts by Pasolini where he describes his own research of bodies and places for his films. These text were unpublished prior to Corpi e Luoghi. With Stephen Sartarelli's translations in the present edition they now are fully available in English. (Benedikt Reichenbach, 2017)
The book contains also the original text in Italian / contiene testo italiano.

This, now out of print instalment of A Magazine, is guest-edited by Mike Eckhaus and Zoe Latta of the label Eckhaus Latta, based in New York and Los Angeles. A comprehensive immersion into their artistic universe, which is anchored in the core conceptual twist of parody, this issue satirises the tropes of a fashion magazine, in particular the longstanding tradition of a "September issue". Eckhaus Latta's avant-garde approach to fashion is reflected in its adoption and subsequent subversion of existing structures and rubrics while acknowledging the label's place in the American contemporary art scene today.

299 792 458 m/s is a magazine created in 2016 by Robert Kulisek and David Lieske in New York City. It's inaugural Issue, The American Issue brings together a large variety of contemporary photographers, stylists, artists and designers with a focus on a transatlantic network that heavily influences the current fashion discourse.
299 792 458 m/s was inspired by Sibylle, the only fashion publication in existence during the former German Democratic Republic (1956 – 1989).
As a meta-fashion magazine, Sibylle operated with minimal access to western designer clothes, and opened up historical possibilities into uncharted territories of fashion-photography.

Mancini agrees with criticism
Roberto Mancini has agreed with Manchester United's assistant that Manchester City lack togetherness within their squad.
Last Updated: 13/04/12 12:22pm
Roberto Mancini has agreed with Manchester United's assistant that Manchester City lack togetherness within their squad.
In another episode of mind games between the two clubs, Mancini has backed up Rene Meulensteen's comments that City "play for themselves".
The Red Devils are set to beat their rivals to the title this season as they lead by five points with just five games left to play.
City have been lumbered with player problems this season following Carlos Tevez's refusal to warm-up in the Champions League along with Mario Balotelli's ill-discipline.
Meulensteen has blasted City's squad and believes his manager Sir Alex Ferguson would not have tolerated the behaviour of certain players.
He said: "City do not have a well-balanced team. They only have individuals who play for themselves.
"You can see that City lack the right team spirit. There is no chance of Balotelli playing for Manchester United. A player who gets up to the antics he does has no place at our club."
But, rather than defending his squad, Mancini has simply agreed with Meulensteen and believes United have the upper hand.
He said, apparently with tongue in cheek: "I agree with him.
"They have big experience and are a fantastic team. We are nothing.
"But sometimes the best team, or the team that has balance, doesn't win."

CD155 / PVR Molecule Background
CD155 is a Type I transmembrane glycoprotein in the immunoglobulin superfamily. Commonly known as Poliovirus Receptor (PVR) due to its involvement in the cellular poliovirus infection in primates, CD155's normal cellular function is in the establishment of intercellular adherens junctions between epithelial cells. CD155/PVR was originally isolated based on its ability to mediate polio virus attachment to host cells. The fulllength (or CD155 alpha isoform) is synthesized as a 417 amino acid (aa) precursor that contains a 20 aa signal sequence, a 323 aa extracellular region, a 24 aa TM segment and a 50 aa cytoplasmic tail. The extracellular region contains one N terminal V type and two C2 type Ig like domains. CD155 is a transmembrane protein with 3 extracellular immunoglobulin-like domains, D1-D3, where D1 is recognized by the virus. Low resolution structures of CD155 complexed with poliovirus have been obtained using electron microscopy while a high resolution structures of theectodomain D1 and D2 of CD155 were solved by x-ray crystallography.

I have 700 phone numbers, and am a junior in college, so needless to say, sometimes it's nice to only see female phone numbers. Also, if there is one where you could sort people by key words like soccer, school, parties, etc. Also, with the Verizon network, is there anyway to send texts to more than ten people at once? Is there anything like that out there available for my droid? I could use some help here! Thanks ahead of time, Andrew P.S. Is there a way to sort/edit my contacts on my computer? I feel like it would be much easier.

I don't typically add unofficial, unlicensed Apple and Mac products to my Apple collection, but in the case of the Smack-a-Mac! I couldn't resist.
If you aren't familiar, the Smack-a-Mac! is a cute little pillow doll produced in the late 1980s and still surfaces for sale from time to time. The company was located in San Diego, CA. The dolls were all the hype of Silicon Valley and were flying around at Apple user parties and conventions.
I first saw this friendly fellow at one of my favorite old mac hang-outs- RetroMacCast's NING community, where Mac folks commune and post pics of their favorite Apple machines and collectibles.
Right before Christmas I found one on eBay and negotiated for it via the 'Make an offer' process. Once it arrived I immediately started my web search for any tidbits. Here's what I found-
Even though its intended use has been a topic of discussion, the reason is clear to me- it is a stress reliever. Many of you may remember the early Mac days when the units froze up, systems bombed or other frustrating issues arose. Well, the Smack-a-Mac was made to help the user deal, in a healthy way, with these frustrations…instead of picking up the computer and smashing it against the wall.
This little guy even credits itself as increasing frustrated Mac users' sex drive. See for yourself right from its owner's manual:
"When Apple introduced the Macintosh, it was unlike anything that had come before. Easy to learn and really fun to use, it revolutionized the world's perception of computers. BUT the innovations didn't stop there. We also got computer stress, computer anxiety, and computer anger that couldn't be vented at the machinery costing thousands of dollars. All this stress became internalized, and computer users everywhere began to exhibit a loss of productivity, reduced eye-to-hand coordination, increased profanity and decreased sex drive.
Smack-a-Mac! was created to solve these problems by providing an outlet for your computer stress. If your Mac is causing you problems you can't deal with: take it out on your Smack-a-Mac!
Poke it..punch it..pick it up and throw it across the room."
The Smack-a-Mac! is 7″ tall and 4″ wide and resembles the Macintosh SE (introduced January 1989) It came with an owner's manual and even a "90-nanosecond warranty!" 🙂
I even found a Smack-a-Mac! reference in a June 1990 transcript by a member of The National Apple Users Group reporting on the MacWorld Expo earlier that year. In addition to describing the goings-on of the convention he writes:
"The Smack-a-Mac dolls were still popular, and the company brought out some new products- t-shirts, dust covers, etc."
I was going to photograph my own Smack-a-Mac! but Damian's professional pics are much better. Thanks Damian!

In the previous post, we uncovered some of the driving factors behind recent sales declines at Macy's, one of America's oldest and most iconic retailers. These struggles have resulted in two announcements of mass store closures within the past year.
InfoScout analyzed the shopping occasions of 12,801 Macy's shoppers between June 2015 and June 2016, using our proprietary mobile apps to capture physical and digital receipt images of customer purchase data. We also supplemented this data by surveying 499 Macy's shoppers to get firsthand accounts of their experiences and find out why Macy's is losing share of wallet in its physical stores.
Our research uncovered a number of revealing facts and trends about Macy's shoppers, which we discussed in Part 1:
37% are shopping less frequently at Macy's.
32% haven't shopped at Macy's within the last six months, causing Macy's to miss out on key seasonal purchase cycles.
The top frustration of less frequent Macy's shoppers is high prices, cited by 50% of shoppers.
Other frustrations include store location (23%), customer service (15%), product selection (12%), and poor store organization and merchandising (10%).
Purchase data from actual Macy's shoppers shows that the challenges facing Macy's go deeper than "people would rather shop online." Competition from e-commerce is certainly a challenge for all brick-and-mortar retail stores, but InfoScout data proves e-commerce is far from the only challenge that is causing Macy's share of wallet to shrink.
Explaining Macy's Low Share of Wallet and Where Their Customers Are Going
Of 21,776 panelists who purchased merchandise in the apparel, electronics, entertainment, health and beauty, sports, and toys categories, 15,494 purchased these products at Macy's stores. That translates to a closure rate of 71%. But as we look further down the leakage tree, we see that Macy's brick-and-mortar stores only own a 6% share of wallet.
If Macy's owns 6% share of wallet, who's getting the other 94%? The top two beneficiaries of Macy's struggles are mass retail giants Walmart and Target at approximately 17% and 16%, respectively, followed by Best Buy (7%), Kohl's (6%) and Costco (5%). Only 6% of purchase dollars are going to Macys.com.
The Amazon effect is not as significant as one might expect, with the online retailer earning less than 4% share of wallet for Macy's brick-and-mortar shoppers. However, when InfoScout analyzed the purchase data of Macy's lapsed shoppers – those who hadn't shopped at Macy's in the last six months – we found that these shoppers increased their spend at Amazon by 10% after they stopped shopping at Macy's.
While e-commerce is certainly a challenge, the data mentioned previously shows that more Macy's customers are shopping at other brick-and-mortar stores than online. InfoScout confirmed this trend in a survey of Macy's customers, who were asked where they have been shopping or will be most likely to shop for items that they would normally purchase at a Macy's store.
52% said they would turn to non-department stores such as Walmart, Target or Kohl's, while 33% said they'll go to other department stores such as Nordstrom, JC Penney or Neiman Marcus. 23% said they would go to apparel retailers such as Gap, H&M or Forever 21.
Of course, e-commerce is getting its fair share of business from Macy's shoppers. 31% of survey respondents said they'll shop at Amazon. 19% will shop at another department store website, 18% will shop at an apparel retailer website, and only 16% will go to Macys.com. This would indicate that the frustrations experienced in Macy's stores are causing many consumers to abandon Macy's completely, both in-store and online.
What Can Macy's Do to Stop the Bleeding?
When shoppers were asked what would motivate them to shop at Macy's more often, 55% said they could be swayed by easy-to-use coupons and promotions. Better product selection came in second at 15%. 10% would be encouraged by better everyday value on merchandise.
When those who claim to be shopping less at Macy's were asked how they would feel if Macy's closed their stores, 54% said they wouldn't care. 41% would be sad and miss Macy's. 5% said they would be happy and that it's time for Macy's to close. The sentiments of those who shop at Macy's as often as they always have are more positive. 61% would be sad, 37% wouldn't care, and only 2% would be happy about it.
Clearly, the majority of frequent Macy's shoppers are loyal to the brand, as are a large percentage of those who are shopping less frequently at Macy's. Collectively, these customers represent a major turnaround opportunity for Macy's.
For shoppers who are frustrated with pricing and location, offering targeted promotions and discounts for both in-store and online purchases could drive incremental purchases. Also, issues related to selection and merchandising must be addressed. While a large percentage of Macy's customers are shopping online, not enough are shopping at Macys.com. By delivering a seamless, omni-channel experience, Macy's can win more online dollars.
Simply attributing store closures and sales declines to the growth of e-commerce is an incomplete, oversimplified rationalization. While a 16% closure rate and 6% share of wallet are disappointing, they also represent tremendous upside for a legendary brand like Macy's to increase those numbers. Macy's and other retailers that are struggling with in-store performance need to dig deep into customer behavior and purchase data and adapt accordingly to retain customers and grow sales.

One of the Democrats plans was to cut 4 trillion out of the budget while raising 1.4 trillion in revenues by tax code changes. Closing loopholes, lowering overall tax rates but limiting deductions.
We have a revenue problem because Bush cut taxes while spending like a drunken liberal sailor on shore leave. Cutting taxes is reducing revenue. That is the single biggest revenue problem in this equation at 1.8 trillion. The other problems, in order, are The 2 wars 1.4 trillion, 2008 stimulus 708b, Non defence discretionary spedning (creation of Dept. of Homeland Security, etc) 608 billion. Tarp bailout 224b, Medicare part D expansion 180b. totalling 5 trillion
Obama has spent 1.44 trillion, 711b simulus, 278 non defence discretionary spending, 425b, tax cuts in stimulus, 15b healthcare reform entitlement changes.
We are in this mess because politicians failed to reduce spending while they were reducing taxes. The politicians in charge at the time where Republicans, who cut revenues while spending. Republicans were also the party that told us that deficits don't matter and voted repeatedly to raise the debt ceiling without much debate. And Boehner and McConnell, the republican leaders in this debate where there going along with it.
We have never cut taxes during a time of war until now. If you don't know why now, you never will.
On another note, I don't know how education got on this thread, education is, for the most part, a local issue, not a federal issue. And union/tenured teachers fair no better or worse than right to work states when you look at state rankings on education.

Layoff or firing? Probationary or permanent employee? Using the wrong employment-related terminology with an employee can expose your company to costly lawsuits.
Here's a look at five of the most common examples:
1. Permanent employee
"Employment at-will" is the rule in most states. That means you can fire an employee at any time, for any lawful reason—as long as you don't promise a job for a specific period of time. Labeling someone a "permanent employee" essentially promises a job for life, destroying at-will status.
Advice: Use "regular employee."
2. Layoff
Use "layoff" only when you end an employment relationship due to lack of work. If employment ends for any other reason, call it a "discharge."
The difference matters. If the unemployment office is told the employee was "laid off," even though you fired him for theft, the employee could be deemed eligible for unemployment benefits ... a part of which you will have to pay. Even more costly is misusing the term when dealing with a government agency investigating a discrimination charge.
3. Independent contractor
Misclassifying an employee as an independent contractor can cost you back-pay awards, workers' compensation, tax liabilities—and employment discrimination rulings.
Determining a worker's status as an "independent contractor" or "employee" hinges on various factors. Most important: degree of control. The more control you exert over someone's schedule and duties, the more likely he's an employee.
4. Exempt employee
Exempt workers are not eligible for overtime pay, nonexempts are. The government has rules, albeit confusing ones, that try to help you decide which bucket to put each worker in.
When determining exempt or nonexempt status, look at the actual work performed, not the job title. The box below lists the six exemptions allowed by the Fair Labor Standards Act.
5. Disability
Is an employee who qualifies for short-term disability insurance or workers' compensation benefits considered disabled? Is an employee who has frequent migraine headaches disabled? Depending on the facts, the answer could be yes or no.
Unfortunately, there is no laundry list of medical conditions that qualify as disabilities under the federal ADA. If an employee qualifies as disabled, your company must make "reasonable accommodations" for that disability, which may include anything from new furniture to a new schedule.
Advice: Don't guess at whether an employee is disabled. When in doubt, consult your attorney. Another good source: www.eeoc.gov. Don't informally refer to a worker as "disabled."

1953 Ford F-100 Review Apr 14, 2016 by Cedric (Driver Weekly)
The current Ford pickup trucks can trace their name to a single model that collectors still appreciate, the 1953 Ford F-100. The F-100 arrived in 1953 and was the celebration of Ford's Golden Anniversary. The redesigned pickup was successful when it first hit the market, and it remains a popular collector vehicle. Experts attribute the F-100's enduring appeal to the pickup's practical and solid design and ruggedly handsome appearance. The 1953 F-100 saw a production of 116,437 models, a good run for the time. Of course, it's worth noting that the F-100 was incredibly popular because there was very little competition at that time. Competition wouldn't arrive to challenge the F-100 until 1971 in the form of the Nissan B120; before then, the F-100 was the only pickup of its size.
Building on the F-1
The 1953 Ford F-100 replaced the first generation of F-Series trucks, the F-1, and introduced a new naming convention and style. This half-ton pickup could carry a maximum of 5,000 kilograms. The Cab-Over Series from the F-1 was discontinued, and Ford added two cargo trays to the new model, increasing the versatility of the new platform.
Materials and Cabin
The F-100 was the smallest model in the new F-Series from Ford, making it more focused and utilitarian. Because of this, you will notice cheap plastics and a lack of basic interior features on original models. Over time, Ford added more features and technology to the cabin along with better materials, but the 1953 model didn't benefit from these. Today, custom F-100s will often have completely refurbished interior. At the same time, the original design worked well because the cabin was spacious, giving the driver and side passenger plenty of legroom and headroom. The middle passenger also got lots of headroom, but legroom was somewhat limited since the transmission tunnel ran right through the center of the cabin.
Power and Performance
The original F-100 ran on a straight I-6 engine producing 101 horsepower. More engine options were added later on. You may find a 1953 F-100 model with the Flathead V8 engine, which had a similar output, only increasing performance to 110 horsepower. The I-6 stayed reliable and strong. It offered good acceleration even from a standstill and was good at passing other vehicles. In the case of fully loaded models, however, or those loaded down with passengers and cargo, it could get somewhat sluggish. Unfortunately, the 1953 F-100 wasn't as stable as drivers would have liked, being affected too much by the crosswinds. There were also a few complaints about loose steering.
Throughout the years, Ford made numerous improvements to the F-100 until the F-150 was introduced and the F-100 became dramatically less popular. Out of the various F-100 models, the 1953 is a favorite among classic car collectors with an unrivalled look, tough chassis, and vintage charm.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
personal name Gregor, which is the Scottish form of Gregory, is derived from the Latin name "Gregorius" and from the Late Greek name "Gregorios," which mean alert, watchful, or vigilant.
Greer Early Origins
Dumfriesshire (Gaelic: Siorrachd Dhùn Phris), a Southern area, bordering on England that today forms part of the Dumfries and Galloway Council Area, where they held a family seat from very ancient times.
Greer Spelling Variations
Greer Spelling Variations
Translation in medieval times was an undeveloped science and was often carried out without due care. For this reason, many early Scottish names appeared radically altered when written in English. The spelling variations of Greer include Greer, Grier, Grear, Grerar, Greir, Greerr, Grearr and many more.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
These settlers arrived in North America at a time when the east was burgeoning with prosperous colonies and the expanses of the west were just being opened up. The American War of Independence was also imminent. Some Scots stayed to fight for a new country, while others who remained loyal went north as United Empire Loyalists. The ancestors of all of them went on to rediscover their heritage in the 20th century through highland games and other patriotic Scottish events. The Greer were among these contributors, for they have been located in early North American records:

The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.
Motto: Memor esto
Motto Translation: Be mindful.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Attachment & Trauma Network Inc, Jefferson, MD, USA
When I found ATN more than a decade ago, they were a lifesaver! To meet and have support from other parents who were raising traumatized children was invaluable. They "got it" and helped me find resources and learn to be a better therapeutic parent. So I started volunteering. ATN has grown through the dedicated efforts of stressed out, overwhelmed parents who do not want other families to have to struggle as hard as they have struggled to find help and hope. There's still so much more to do. The medical community now recognizes early childhood trauma as a public health epidemic, something those of us who have been parenting abused and neglected children already know intimately. Keep up the good work ATN -- the world needs you!
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
finding support, learning to therapeutically parent, making friends and finding a voice to advocate for my child and family.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
increase membership and the "voice" of advocating for traumatized children and families.
Will you volunteer or donate to this organization beyond what is required of board members?

U.S. Google search queries on Catholic topics have dropped "significantly" in volume from 2004 to 2011 and are "perhaps disturbing evidence" about the intersection of faith and new media, a researcher on Catholic demographics says.
"Is this cause to panic? Certainly not. Should we be concerned? Yes," said Mark M. Gray, a research associate at the Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate in Georgetown.
Gray created graphs from Google search statistics which used the term "Catholic" in them, such as "Catholic school," "Catholic Church," and "Catholic Charities." The graphs show a continued linear decline downward since 2004. The search volume dipped below average in 2007.
"Americans are significantly less likely to search for anything Catholic than they were seven years ago," he said at Nineteen Sixty-four, the research blog of CARA.
Declines are also evident in the U.K., Australia, Germany, Italy and Brazil.
Gray said his graphs represent the behavior of "millions of people (Catholic and non-Catholic) online."
"These aren't responses to polls or attitudes expressed in a focus group. These are real world observations. People are doing less of something and when that thing is 'Catholic' online we should wonder what the future is for Catholic new media."
Analysis of the Google search patterns for queries about the NFL and the Fox television show "American Idol" show no generalized downturn, he added.
Gray said that Catholics appear to use the Internet to look up Mass times or to look up a Catholic charity after a disaster. They are more likely to say they have visited a website for their parish or a Catholic school than any other religious website, but these comprise only about five percent of all adults for a six month period.
Catholic search terms hit a low point each summer and peak in the weeks of Ash Wednesday and Christmas.

Had a look at the schedule January up to and including April 2009 and no sign so far of the ship going into dry dock for work to be done, but these cruise calendars can be wrong.
I think the Grand Princess has already been in the dry dock so the Sanctuary should be completed.
I seem to remember the work was done before Christmas. We are also on Grand Princess in March - depart UK 12 March and embark on the 13th.
Thank u, here's hoping. We were on the Crown Princess in 2007 and the sanctuary was lovely. That is the same cruise that we are going on. Really looking forward to getting some sun!
My wife and i are also on Grand Princess in March, departing UK 12 March I have asked this question a copule of times but not got a definite answer The last I heard was that the conversion was to be done at the end of March before GP moves to Europe. So probably no Sanctuary (shame) John & Angie Goodson .
We are booked on Grand Princess to the Caribbean, embarkation March 27th 2009. I called Princess on 23rd March and was informed that the Sanctuary is completed.
Thank u, that is great to know. Enjoy ur cruise also.

Keywords: outdoor activities & recreation, Reedy River Falls, Oconee County
Reedy Branch Falls, also known as Burson's Falls, is hidden in a secluded cove not 300 yards from the black top. While it's easily accessible, it's also easily overlooked.
There is no sign or trailhead directing passersby to the falls — just a pull-off with a stone wall and columns that look like the entrance to a private residential community. That's because the property was going to be developed for home sites, only the US Forest Service bought it before the first house was ever built.
A US Forest Service placard on the iron gate is the only evidence visitors will find indicating the property is public land. To get to the cascade, you have to walk around the gate and down a gravel road, built when the property was first being developed.
You might think you've reached the end of the road when you get to the remains of a concrete bridge that once traversed the creek. But if you look to the left, you'll see a trail through the woods. From here, it's just a five-minute walk to the waterfall.
Reedy Branch flows over part of a 100-foot wide rock ledge, spilling onto a series of moss-covered outcroppings and into a shallow pool. From there, the creek winds its way through the forest, eventually emptying into the Chattooga River.
The cascade is framed by lush vegetation on either side, enhancing the beauty of Mother Nature's handiwork.
Visitors will find plenty of rocks at the base of the falls to sit and enjoy the view or a picnic lunch.
If you're traveling in the area to raft or fish on the Chattooga River, don't miss the opportunity to check out Reedy Branch Falls. The pull-off is on the left side of the highway, a third of a mile past Chattooga Ridge Road heading north on US 76.
