Caregiver Tip for Alzheimer's Caregivers
My mothers greatest fear was living in a rest home. I was well aware of this and would promise her that if she needed care, I would look after her forever. I am a registered nurse and well experienced in caring for older people especially those with dementia. I thought my love for mum would get me through any obstacle that presented itself, unfortunately, about 8 years ago, my lovely mother commenced the journey of Alzheimers Disease and I became her caregiver.
Apart from the traumatic changes, anxiety and confusion mum experienced, I also suffered. I experienced, fear, denial, anger, stress, depression, frustration and huge financial worries. I also learned patience, forgiveness, acceptance (with great difficulty), flexibility.
Together Mum and I became great actors, we could turn the silliest and often very annoying incidents into fun. We relaxed and laughed a lot and we developed a special loving relationship. Then mum began wandering at night, falling, getting lost and mistaking me for people from her past. She was no longer safe, and eventually mum was admitted to a Memory Loss Unit, she was scared, confused and very difficult for the staff to manage. I was sad and felt I had lost mum.
To help staff know mum and keep mums memories alive for her, I wrote out her
life story with photos (I had started doing this with mum about 4 years earlier). I
enlarged other photos, identified them and put them in a folder. The staff found
this very helpful as it gave them things to do with mum.
For example:
Mum was always careful to be well presented. I do not have to worry whether Mum has her lipstick on or her beads around her neck. The staff know what Mum likes. She always looks great, her clothes are color co-ordinate and when she looks in the mirror she is satisfied. The staff have learned about Mum through reading her stories. Mum loves her reminiscence manuals and her memories are not lost. I found doing these things helped me get through the first couple of months.
Then, came the first Christmas, so Mums first Christmas (in the rest home) formed another manual. Then, the first birthday and so on. I have continued to do these activities and we have one of the Grand children, another of the Great Grand children, favorite animals, Mum and the staff and other residents having fun, eating fish and chips, making pikelets (with a lot of help!!) These are Mums latest memories and will continue. ..
10 months have now passed and the manuals continue to grow. Mum loves looking at them (each time she looks at them it is the first time she has seen them !).
If you find yourself in the position I did, I recommend you give the manuals a go. Another benefit is that these records and photos are captured for future generations. By sharing the memories with mum I realized I had not lost her. How can you lose someone who has her life and happiness sitting in manuals next to her lazy boy, waiting to be shared, and how happy she is when she sees them again (for the first time).

Christmas in the Castro?
Hi there,
Totally psyched to be moving to foodie nirvana (SF Bay) just before Christmas. My kids will be visiting from college and we have tickets for a concert in the Castro on Christmas eve. Wondering if anyone has any advice for restaurants (other than Chinese) that might be open that night? Through a little searching here on the CH boards I did locate Frances-- couldnt get anything on Open Table (waiting till 2p when they start answering phone). Wondering if anyone might have any other suggestions for dinner in that general vicinity?
Thank you in advance!
Not sure what you meant by not finding anything on Open Table.
Does it have to be fancy? The best food in the Castro isn't.
There's a Thai House Express on Castro Street, and Kasa has great modern Indian food on 18th.
Thai House Express
901 Larkin St, San Francisco, CA 94109
re: Windy
Wolfe I meant I couldn't get a reservation at Frances on open table. Windy-- we do usually go to a more upscale place for the holiday but I will definitely try the Indian and Thai places you recommend another time. Thanks Robert -- I'll check if Poesia is open. What do you all think of Chapeau?
re: Windy
check the SF Weekly or the Guardian most years one or both do a round-up of who (other than the obvious hotels) are open
None of these are stellar foodie destinations, but I live in the neighborhood and they all do a fine job and I go to all of them often:
-- The Sausage Factory (Italian. food is just good, not great, but it's cozy and old-timey and I love the place, no reservations taken but usually not a wait)
-- Anchor Oyster Bar (nice seafood, no reservations taken, often a wait)
-- Red Jade (chinese. I order in from here at least once a week. When I work at home I often go there for their cheap lunch special. The venue is just fine for eating there as well, bright and pleasant).
-- 2223. (More upscale. I love their roast chicken main course with mashed potatoes green beans and onion rings. Full bar and they know how to make a proper cocktail. Service can be slow. Also, they take reservations)
-- Home. (full bar. takes reservations. a little loud. Another place with good roast chicken. And a nice iceberg wedge salad.)
If you find yourself there that night and you are really stuck, right across the street is a place called the Cove. I like them for brunch, nothing special, but the food is wholesome and comforting.
Don't be sorry about missing Frances I'm in the minority, but I think it's not that great. Just posted my report about them earlier today on this board.
Do not under any circumstances go to Leticia's. Back in the day they were edible and had good strong drinks. They closed for many years and reopened recently at a different location. Possibly the worst mexican food I've ever eaten.
re: pauliface
I did meet John Waters at Leticia's once years ago! he was hosting something at the Castro Theater that night. I called him Mr. (Don) Knotts and complimented him on his performance in The Ghost and Mr. Chicken (heh!). but yes the only worse Mexican I've ever had was at el Coyote in LA and you only go there because it's where Sharon Tate had her last meal.
Home and 2223 are both comfy and well priced, not terribly adventurous but usu. pretty good, I had a nice dinner at 2223 once for some winter holiday meal (but not the prix fixe turkey). I sorta doubt Anchor would be open, maybe xmas eve, but it is a very solid place.
that is the interesting holdover aspect of the Castro from the 70's and 80's, when a a lot of LGBT folks didn't really feel they had family to go to, so a lot more places are open than in some other parts of town.
re: hill food
re: vulber
Yes, I should have made that clear.
To me, 2223 has the best food on that list.
(Although, I do find that some of my midwestern friends feel that Home has some particularly comforting dishes, like mac & cheese, and broccoli with cheese on top.)
That said, I've ordered sweetbreads at 2223 (quite good), and I can tell you I would not risk that at any of the other places on my list.

The Andover Townsman
---- — Wil Hixon, Andover's great basketball coach and a principal of Andover High School, has a wonderful history. Brought up in a small town north of Plymouth, N.H., he graduated at age 16 with excellent grades and no thoughts of going to college in spite of his parents' wishes and the high school principal's arguments. Instead he chose to work in a bobbin factory where many of his fellow townspeople worked, including a lot of people he grew up with.
While in high school, Hixon was an all-around athlete but excellent in baseball, a sport he continued to play while working in the factory. The Plymouth State College baseball coach kept an eye on Hixon and convinced Wil to come to come to Plymouth State and play ball. He was so good that the coach played him wherever Wil was needed, so he played second, shortstop, and third, while always swinging a hot bat. Several of his mill worker friends, some colorful, came to the games and cheered loudly for Plymouth State but especially for Wil. Among the halls of fame that have honored Hixon is Plymouth State's, where he was inducted as both a baseball player and as a high school coach.
After graduating, Wil started his teaching and coaching career at Raymond then Plymouth, N.H. In six years he won two state basketball titles and missed a third because of a fluke. With seconds left and his team down by a point, a perfect pass to one of Wil's players should have lead to an easy lay up and victory except that, when the player turned around to head for the basket, the referee was inexplicably in the way causing the player to fall and the team to lose. In the locker room later, the referee cried, knowing he had cost a team a state title.
Donald Dunn, Andover's athletic director, approached Wil in 1958 and made him an offer to come to Andover and coach varsity basketball. He started teaching and coaching at Andover High School in the 1959 school year, and in the next 24 years his Andover High basketball teams won 377 games and lost only 122, winning a state title in 1970. Overall, between NH and MA, he compiled a record of 469 wins and 146 losses. It must be rare for a coach to win state titles in two states.
I spoke to Mr. Hixon last week, reminding him that I was in his history class in 1960. He remembered my political views, and I told him he was one of the best teachers I ever had. He left teaching in favor of school administration, and was principal for his last four years before retiring in 1991. In one of those years, Andover High was picked as one of the country's 10 best schools by a national magazine.
"I believe in loyalty," he explained to me as we discussed his career. As the coach of the baseball JVs when Ted Boudreau was varsity coach, a foolish rule was put in place saying a coach had to teach in the school he coached in. Whether it was aimed at Ted Boudreau or not, the rule cost him his varsity baseball job since he was a junior high teacher. As the JV coach, Hixon was offered the varsity coaching job, but he refused to take it out of his friendship with Boudreau. It must have been a heck of a sacrifice for a guy who loved baseball.
Wil and his wife Dawn, whom many of us remember as the pleasant, attractive woman who worked in the high school's front office, live in southern New Hampshire on waterfront property, and they have three adult children and seven grandchildren, one of whom is a world class diver, and he's still in high school..
The same year that Athletic Director Dunn recruited Hixon he also recruited Dick Collins and both men started at Andover High in 1959. So much has been written about Coach Collins that I won't repeat it here, although I will be writing about him again in the near future. I must mention that his football and track teams were so successful that Andover High School's field house is named for him, and it must be added that his teaching skills were unforgettably good.
When I spoke to Dick last week, we talked about what he has done since retirement. He has served on the School Committee for 15 years — he calls that a great experience — and he has unofficially helped the football and track programs. In all, he has been involved with the Andover School system for 54 years, no doubt a record of its own. He also unofficially contributes his time to the Phillips Academy's football program and taught there for 10 summers. When Merrimack College began its football program a few years ago, Dick served as an assistant coach. Just in case his "retirement" isn't busy enough, Dick runs a golf league in the summer, in which Wil Hixon participates. Dick has 21 grandchildren.
These old friends, Wil Hixon and Dick Collins, will be honored this Friday night at half time during the Andover-Lawrence football game, which will be played at Lovely Field. After the game, they will be at Dylan's Restaurant on Park Street to visit with old friends and students.

Meadville Tribune
After years of cutting expenses by reducing the number of employees and thereby eliminating traditional paths of career development, the City of Meadville has arrived at a crossroads.
At the present time, according to a report presented to Meadville City Council during its recent study session by City Manager Joe Chriest, the age of the average non-union city employee now exceeds 54 years. By the end of 2016, five management and five non-management employees will have met the city's minimum retirement requirements. Specifically, they will be at least 60 years of age and have completed a minimum of 20 years of service.
In response to what he sees as a widespread absence of trained personnel ready to step into senior positions, Chriest is in the process of preparing a citywide management succession plan.
Implementation of one part of the plan, however, needs to start almost immediately. Before the end of the current year, both the chief and assistant chief of Meadville's police department will be retiring.
Under normal circumstances, Meadville has a 21-member police force, including the chief and assistant chief. However, during years of budget discussions with the city, Chief Dave Stefanucci has steadfastly maintained that at 21, one below the department's 2009 staffing level, he really needs to hire another police officer.
"I feel we have gone too far from what we need to make the schedules work," Stefanucci wrote in a memorandum included as part of the 120-page budget proposal presented to Meadville City Council by Finance Director Tim Groves at the start of the 2013 budget season last November. "We have been pushing the men far beyond what they should be as far as working overtime to cover the lost manpower." In addition, while officers leaving in 2012 took more than 90 years of experience with them, according to Chriest, 10 of the city's 19 remaining uniformed officers have completed less than six years of service.
Question of the day
With Stefanucci and Assistant Chief Tom Liscinski scheduled to retire in July and September respectively, council is rapidly approaching a decision point. Should the size of the complement climb to 23 between May and September and then hold at 22 between September and December before dropping to 21 after the end of the year; or should the number of officers drop to 20 in July and 19 in September before climbing to 21 after the end of the year?
According to Finance Director Tim Groves, the city has traditionally saved money by waiting until a retiree's vacation and sick time have run out before going out to hire a replacement.
Both Stefanucci and Liscinski, whose days of reporting to work will end in July and September respectively, will continue to be paid for accumulated vacation and sick time through December. As a result, they were both included for the full year in the 2013 budget. Because they are participating in the city's Deferred Retirement Option Program, their exact retirement dates have already been set and cannot be extended.
According to Chriest, plans call for Liscinski to step into the position of acting chief between Stefanucci's last day in the office and his own.
In accordance with the Third Class City Code's optional charter law, which stipulates that the chief and other officers must be selected from within the city's force and appointed by the city manager, Chriest plans to solicit letters of interest in the near future, schedule interviews for late February and early March and select the chief and assistant chief in March. "The successful candidates will work with the incumbents from April through July," Chriest reported to council during the work session.
At the same time, Chriest recommended the hiring of two new patrol officers in May, a plan that he said "will allow the new officers to train while we have a full complement."
Not so fast, council responded.
"We want to know how much it will cost and where the money is coming from," Mayor Christopher Soff said after Chriest confirmed that while Stefanucci and Liscinski are both included in the current budget through the end of the year, salaries and benefits for two new patrol officers from May through the end of the year were not.
Councilmembers LeRoy Stearns and Nancy Mangilo-Bittner agreed that they both want to see the cost before authorizing any additional expenses.
"It's a question of what it will cost to hire a replacement patrol person before the cycle is complete so they're never short-handed," Groves told the Tribune Thursday. "We have to sit down with Dave (Stefanucci) and decide what the cost will be."
Mary Spicer can be reached at 724-6370 or by email at email@example.com.

HONG KONG (AP) - Even the magpies are trying to blend in in the
metal and concrete jungle that is Hong Kong.
News reports say that a pair of common magpies built a nest on a
tree in Hong Kong's Tuen Mun district using scrap metal twigs
believed to have been collected from a nearby construction site.
The Sunday Morning Post reported the metal nest was discovered
after some of the twigs started falling off the tree and hitting
The Apple Daily newspaper reported Sunday government officials
taped the nest together on Saturday but left it in the tree.
The newspaper published a photo showing a local resident

On Tuesday, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 's director, Tom Frieden, M.D., M.P.H. , sounded an alarm via telebriefing about an antibiotic-resistant strain of bacteria that pose a triple threat to health. The infections caused by these bacteria are acquired while patients are in the hospital or another type of medical care facility, referred to as nosocomial infections and most severely affect those people who are the most ill, have compromised immune systems and other risk factors.
Carbapenem-Resistant Enterobacteriaceae: 'Nightmare Bacteria'
Carbapenem-resistant enterobacteriaceae, or CRE, were labeled as "nightmare bacteria" by Frieden during his telebriefing due to the fact these germs can cause life-threatening infections in three separate ways:
* CRE are resistant to all, or nearly all antibiotics, even some of the last resort drugs
* CRE infections have high mortality rates, causing death to half the people who have serious
CRE infections
* CRE can spread their resistance to other bacteria by passing on the gene that results in
Carbapenem-resistant enterobacteriaceae is a family of more than 70 different bacteria, including E. coli and klebsiella. These two commonly-known bacteria normally live in the intestines, but sometimes they get into places like the blood or bladder, causing infections there.
When bacteria in the enterobacteriaceae become resistant to the use of antibiotics, they are then termed "CRE."
Who is Most Vulnerable to Acquire CRE Infections?
The risk of infection is highest in people receiving complex medical care or in long-term medical care; these are patients most vulnerable to acquire any infection due to invasive tubes and devices such as catheters, ventilator tubes and more. The most likely settings for CRE infections are hospitals or long-term care facilities.
CRE is spread person-to-person, most often from unwashed hands.
How Prevalent are CRE Infections?
The CDC reported that in 2001, CRE was tracked in one health care facility in one state; now there have been reports of the infection in 42 states. In the first half of 2012, at least one CRE infection was treated in nearly 200 health care facilities.
At this time, all known CRE infections have occurred only within health care facilities. The CDC is implementing programs to prevent the spread of the life-threatening infections from reaching into communities.
The good news is that health care facilities and even other countries who have implemented the CDC's "Detect and Protect" program to reduce CRE infections have shown reduced incidence of the drug-resistant infectious agents.
What's Being Done to Protect Public Health?
The CDC is encouraging all health departments and leaders in health facilities and organizations to follow the "Detect and Protect" program the federal public health agency developed and have met with success.
In addition to clinicians needing to determine if a patient has a CRE infection with an immediate alert from the lab if such is noted, there is a four-pronged approach to the prevention, spread, and treatment of potential CRE infections, including limiting the use of antibiotics only when medically necessary.
Bottom Line
Hand washing by hospital personnel is as important as ever to prevent the spread of CRE from person-to-person. Don't hesitate to ask a health care provider to wash his/her hands before providing care to you or a loved one. Don't insist on being prescribed antibiotics when your physician says they aren't needed or won't be useful, as in when you have a viral illness.
And you might want to contact your elected officials about the continued use of antibiotics in animals for food.

"She was the instigator, the boss. She didn't want them to get their new shirts sweaty and gross, so they would wear old shirts during the race and then put the new ones on afterwards when they went out for lunch," her daughter, Nicci Randall, said.
Now, Randall — who is running the annual 12-kilometer run through Point Defiance Park for the first time — is the one making up shirts. Not to wear afterward, but to wear during the race, which she will be running to honor her mom, who died two years ago of bone cancer at 80.
"When she passed, we were trying to think of a way to honor her," Randall, 58, said. "And she loved doing these races, and running in general so much, so we figured it would be a good way to get all of her friends and family together and do something special to remember her."
The 23 members of "Team Audrey" will run Saturday's race in honor of Hemphill. Randall says her mother was a prolific runner, and she made a lot of friends doing it.
Race organizer Danette Felt said she thinks running in honor of a loved one is indicative of why the Sound to Narrows has remained such a popular race and speaks to the spirit of why people run.
"Groups like Team Audrey, they are the embodiment of what this race is about. It's about the community and having fun, and not just winning and losing," she said.
Originally from Wales, Hemphill met her husband, Dale, in 1951 when he was stationed there in the Air Force. In 1955, they moved to Gig Harbor, where Dale was from, to raise a family.
When she turned 45, Hemphill decided she wanted to try something new, so she bought a pair of tennis shoes and went for her first jog.
From there, Randall says, her mom never looked back. Hemphill ran races all around the South Sound, including the Sound to Narrows, which she ran 12 times, starting in 1982.
She even got her nonrunning friends pounding the pavement as well, Randall said.
Lori Ann Reeder, another member of Team Audrey, is a board member of the MultiCare Foundation, the charity that the race benefits. She heard that Randall was running the race for Hemphill, and decided to jump right in, despite not having run much.
"The only thing is, I didn't realize it was a 12K when I signed up. I thought it was a 5K," she said. "So they might have to redirect me to the side, but other than that I'm excited and happy we're doing this."
When Hemphill died in June 2012, Randall was devastated. Audrey hadn't been able to run for a few years, because of her cancer and back problems, but she continued walking until a few weeks before she died.
Hemphill stayed active so long, she eventually had to have both knees replaced.
"We were best friends, the closest," Randall said. "She had always tried to get me to do things like run and later walk with her, and I didn't, which I've regretted ever since."
Team Audrey isn't running the race to benefit bone cancer research — an oversight Randall attributes both to her inexperience and that she didn't think so many people would be this excited about running for Audrey.
She says it's an opportunity missed and more importantly one she intends to rectify, when Team Audrey runs the Sound to Narrows again next year.
"I'm already sure we're going to run it again," she said. "It's given me something to do with my kids that I missed out on doing with my mom that meant a lot to her. That's what this has given me that I enjoy the most."

Tech Tips
RPM packages contain a number of potentially useful information fields, and you can see many of them by using the -q and -i options with a package name:
$ rpm -q -i kernel-desktop Name : kernel-desktop Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 184.108.40.206 Vendor: openSUSE Release : 0.1.1 Build Date: Thu 28 Jan 2010 ... Install Date: Sat 20 Feb 2010 ... Build Host: build35 Group : System/Kernel Source RPM: kernel-desktop-... Size : 122840714 License: GPLv2 Signature : RSA/8, Thu 28 Jan 2010 09:16:41 AM MST, ... Packager : http://bugs.opensuse.org URL : http://www.kernel.org/ Summary : Kernel optimized for the desktop Description : This kernel is optimized for the desktop. ... Source Timestamp: 2010-01-27 08:20:11 +0100 GIT Revision: bb438b6d99aaffb7aade40764bab1810cc21b01b GIT Branch: openSUSE-11.2 Distribution: openSUSE 11.2
These fields and others can be output individually by using the --qf or --queryformat options for rpm. Not everything above is directly an option, but many are, such as NAME and VERSION, so that you can do something like:
$ rpm -q --qf "Installed kernel is v%{VERSION}\n" kernel-desktop Installed kernel is v184.108.40.206
The format string is similar to a printf format string, except the type specifier is replaced by the tag to output inside braces. To see a table of all installed packages and their versions, you could do this:
$ rpm -q -a --qf '%-30{NAME} Version %{VERSION}\n'|head gpg-pubkey Version a1912208 yast2-trans-stats Version 2.15.0 yast2-country-data Version 2.18.20 libpciaccess0 Version 7.4 libpth20 Version 2.0.7 libpcre0 Version 7.9.0 netcat Version 1.10 libusb-1_0-0 Version 1.0.2 libbz2-1 Version 1.0.5 libgmp3 Version 4.3.1 ...
You also can change the formatting for an item by appending a qualifier. For example, in the info listing above, there's a field called Install Date. The actual rpm tag is INSTALLTIME, and if you use that directly you get a less-than-useful value:
$ rpm -q --qf "Kernel installed %{INSTALLTIME}\n" kernel-desktop Kernel installed 1266703208
For something more useful, append :date to the tag:
$ rpm -q --qf "Kernel installed %{INSTALLTIME:date}\n" kernel-desktop Kernel installed Sat 20 Feb 2010 03:00:08 PM MST
gcalcli is an easy-to-use command-line tool to interact with your Google Calendar. gcalcli probably is not installed by default on your system, but it may be available via your package manager. If it's not available, get the source at code.google.com/p/gcalcli.
Once installed, you can view your current calendar week by typing:
$ gcalcli --user USERNAME --pw PASSWORD calw
To view the current month of calendar, the command is very similar:
$ gcalcli --user USERNAME --pw PASSWORD calm
Adding an item to your calendar is easy as well with the quick option:
$ gcalcli --user USERNAME --pw PASSWORD quick \ 'Write another Tech Tip for LJ tomorrow 5pm'
gcalcli has many other options, such as choosing your own color scheme and agenda view. See the man page for more options.
When using GNOME, if you open a text file that has the execute bit set, you get an annoying message box each time saying "Do you want to run x.txt or display its content? x.txt is an executable text file."
To get rid of this annoying message box, in Nautilus, go to Edit→Preferences→Behaviour, and check the radio button next to view executable text files when they are opened. The next time, the file will open directly, and no such message box will irk you.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

If you already use virtualized infrastructure, you are well on your way to leveraging the power of the cloud. Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn't scale? In today's hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.
Stackato private Platform-as-a-Service technology from ActiveState extends your private cloud infrastructure by creating a private PaaS to provide on-demand availability, flexibility, control, and ultimately, faster time-to-market for your enterprise.

The Express-Star
I am very proud of the fact that Chickasha High School made Newsweek's 2010 list of "America's Best High Schools." This isn't the first time CHS has made this prestigious, national list.
In fact, according to the Newsweek magazine article, only six percent of all the public schools in the United States made the list. This is quite an honor and all of us in our community should be very proud. We've got bragging rights!
My congratulations go out to each and every individual administrator, faculty and staff member who has contributed to this honor and to the educational community, as a whole, for working together to make it happen.
On even a more personal note, I'm proud of the fact that I have two sons that attend Chickasha High School and would like to thank the faculty and staff who made our transition into the community and school system a good experience last December.
As a teenager, moving into a new community and a new high school is a scary experience. Based on where we live, we had a choice between Am-Po High School or Chickasha High School. Our boys enjoy swimming competitively and wanted to attend CHS because there is a swim team.
Swim season had started a few weeks before we got here and my sons' decisions to join the team led us to three people that absolutely turned what could have been a scary, overwhelming experience into a positive, memorable experience.
These three people are Krista Cochran, Terri Gallaway and Sandra McKnight. Sandra is actually an employee at the Canadian Valley Technology Center, but her son, Isaac, is a member of the CHS Swim Team and I think of her as the "team mom." She takes care of a lot of the team "business."
She was one of our first contacts here and not only helped me get the boys set and ready to practice, but made us genuinely feel welcome to the community, to the school and to the swim team. Thank you, Sandra!
The CHS Swim Coaches, Terri and Krista, have gone way above and beyond to help us and make us feel a part of the swim team community. They gave us a "connection" that we needed right away and have made a difference in both of my sons' lives.
And from there, the list just grows ... Elaine Murray – one of the friendliest and caring school secretaries I've ever met. On the day I enrolled the boys, she interacted with them in such a way that put them at ease and they actually left the building with a smile on their faces and said "we like her."
My point is just that our educational system is more than buildings and books and budgets and controversies and awards and honors. It's the faces – the people who show up everyday and make it all happen.
Chickasha High School has among its school employees some of the most compassionate and caring faculty that I have ever met. Thank you.

Maryland Family readers love Ellicott City. At least that's what the magazine's Readers' Choice awards show.
Howard County businesses and services came out on top or received an honorable mention in 20 of the 31 categories, and that's not including chain businesses that have locations in the county.
Centennial Park took home the Best Park/Playground award; and nearby Meadowbrook Park received an honorable mention.
"We're very proud of all Centennial Park has to offer to the community," Howard County Director of Recreation and Parks John Byrd said in a statement.
"There's something there for everyone, whether it's the lake, natural areas, recreational space or athletic fields. Centennial Park serves as a model for Howard County's entire park system and the park operations staff does a great job keeping it up. It's a great honor to receive this award."
Other Ellicott City winners include Dunloggin Veterinary Hospital (Best Vet); Mumbles and Squeaks (honorable mention, Best Toy Store); and B&O Railroad Station Museum (honorable mention, Best Museum for families, in company with Port Discovery and Maryland Science Center).
The Howard County Library System also came out a winner for Best Story Time for its children's classes
"We are thrilled and honored that customers voted our children's classes as the best," spokesperson Christie Lassen said. The library offers children's classes for different age groups, Lassen said. For infants -23-month-olds, classes such as Play Partners teach social skills, listening comprehension and the foundations of reading.
For preschoolers, classes teach similar skills as well as creative expression. "An annual favorite, Fall into Science, explores simple science concepts and experiments inspired by children's literature," Lassen said.
Classes for school-aged children teach subjects through literature. Lassen highlighted the Discovering Great Artists series, which, on Nov. 9, will give children ages 6 – 9 a chance to study surrealist Rene Magritte.
Find out more about the library's year-round and seasonal children's classes on the Howard County Library System's website.

AMD has announced the immediate availability of the new six-core AMD Opteron EE processor at 40W ACP.
Delivering up to 31% higher performance-per-watt over standard quad-core AMD Opteron processors, the six-core AMD Opteron EE processor is tailored to meet the demands of customers who need strong performance, but must trim out every watt possible in a server system and reduce the data center's power draw, said AMD.
Customers now have 15 low and very low power server processor choices from AMD, while all the CPUs feature AMD's Virtualization (AMD-V) technology and AMD-P features for advanced virtualization and power savings capability as standard power versions.
This 40W ACP processor is currently being integrated in custom solutions programs and will be available from system builders for cloud and Web 2.0 customers where density and low power are key considerations.

I have a friend that moved from SE Michigan to Scottsdale, AZ a few years ago. He loves it. Although he says "Dry heat, my a$$" It is freaking hot. He also said that it is very expensive to live there. SE Michigan is not bad, it can get hot, we had a week of about 95 degrees this summer. The snow has been pretty mild the last few years. Heck, I don't know if we ever got more than 5" in one snow fall (I think that 5" happened one time last year) All the others were an inch here an inch there . I think that we had a total of 31". Which was like 15-20" less than normal. I actually prefer more snow, if it is going to be 15 degrees outside then it should be snowing also!

In the middle of the dream me and the boys went to see you perform at the Stone Pony and you did some extremely odd things, and then you sang your own lyrics to 'They Don't Know About Us,' by Tracey Ullman but then Elizabeth Edwards cam out on stage and made you stop because it needed to be censored," I BOL'd.

The Times-Tribune
What color is President Obama? He is not white. He is not black. He is brown! Color hypersensitivity for us American's disables us to see clearly. Scarred from 100 years of racial slavery, followed by another 100 years of abusive injustices, has programmed most of us Americans (black and white) to maintain a bulwark of racial separation.
Sixty-two years ago, living in Columbus, Ohio, as a seminary student, I encountered a young married couple who were disowned by society. Neither whites nor blacks wanted them. They were a biracial couple. The jolt and shock of their marriage violated the societal boundaries of that time; defiance of the racial bias of that day. This couple was shunned by most everyone. They found acceptance and love exclusively from a handful of Christians.
In all the history of humankind, as well as that of Christianity, such marriages took place in most of the world with little or no alarm (most clearly exemplified in South America's history). History and early Biblical recordings uphold the right to marry for any mutually consenting adult man and woman.
However, great racial amalgamation has slowly developed here in the United States over the past 60 years; since my years in Columbus. America is in progress for the eventual elimination of racial bias and separatism. Time will bring all Americans to stand united in a brown complexion. Our President is brown. Black Americans seeking equal status in a white-man's persecuting society, see black when they see their president; therein ratcheting up the black citizenship and their ownership of this country.
White Americans see black when they see their president. Many white Americans see President Obama as an outstanding outsider with extraordinary gifts yet racially blemished. Rightfully and equally, white Americans could replicate the stand of black Americans, claiming Obama as white. The "defilement" by another race does not impede a black embrace; but certainly does for the white race in America.
Many whites and blacks today struggle to bestow equality and honor upon each other; perhaps best demonstrated through America's segregated housing developments.
White Americans are rapidly losing their controlling grip on America. Percentage-wise, every year sees a shrinking of their numbers; therein they are compelled to share their economic and political dominance with non-whites.
Racial equality has had a long painful road in our country and it still has a long distance to go. It is amazing how much hardship has been endured for centuries due to turning a deaf ear to the Divine directive, "Love thy neighbor as thyself" [Mt:10:19].
Yes, with the therapy of time, we are all bound to be brown - Americans and hopefully color-blind as well.

The Onion: Massive Flow of Bullshit Continues to Gush from BP Headquarters
The Onion reports on the unprecedented damage to the collective patience emanating from Westminster,
The toxic bullshit, which began to spew from the mouths of BP executives shortly after the explosion of the Deepwater Horizon oil rig in April, has completely devastated the Gulf region, delaying cleanup efforts, affecting thousands of jobs, and endangering the lives of all nearby wildlife.
"Everything we can see at the moment suggests that the overall environmental impact of this will be very, very modest," said BP CEO Tony Hayward, letting loose a colossal stream of undiluted bullshit. "The Gulf of Mexico is a very big ocean, and the volume of oil we are putting into it is tiny in relation to the total volume of water."
According to sources, the sheer quantity of bullshit pouring out of Hayward is unprecedented, and it has thoroughly drenched the coastlines of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida, with no end in sight.
The carnage really is quite staggering. The looks on people's faces; it just breaks your heart.

Delaware Study
The National Study of Instructional Costs & Productivity
The Delaware National Study of Instructional Costs and Productivity is a tool for comparative analysis of faculty teaching loads, direct cost of instruction, and externally funded research and service productivity, all at the level of the academic discipline. Study data should be viewed over time, not just in a single year, as sabbatical and other leave can impact both teaching loads and costs during the course of an academic year. The results of the 2012 Delaware Study are provided below (results based on 2011-2012 data). The comparison tables present the University of West Georgia's institutional data alongside normative data from all participating institutions in our Carnegie classification. Data for academic year 2012-2013 will be submitted in January 2014. Results will be available September 2014.

Rogers sent us a quick note to let us know that the BlackBerry Q10 will be available for purchase "in the coming weeks". They will be the first to offer up the Q10 on the 2600 MHz LTE spectrum in Canada. The Q10 will be available in both black and white for $199 on a three-year plan.
As we've seen, we expect the Q10 to be officially available for purchase at the end of the month, but you can pre-order now from Rogers and other carriers if you want to stay ahead of the game.
Keep reading for the full press release.
Press Release
BlackBerry Q10 to run on 2600 MHz spectrum with Rogers LTE - Canada's fastest wireless internet
Rogers to be the first Canadian carrier to offer the BlackBerry Q10 in white
TORONTO, April 9, 2013 /CNW/ - Rogers Communications, Canada's leading diversified communications and media company, today announced it will be the first Canadian carrier to offer the new BlackBerry® Q10 smartphone enabled to run on a 2600 MHz LTE spectrum, the fastest wireless internet band available in Canada. The BlackBerry Q10 will be available in both black and white, and Rogers customers will have access first to the white colour model.
Powered by the Rogers LTE network, Canada's fastest wireless internet, the BlackBerry Q10 smartphone will enable Canadians to do more with their device such as watch live sports in HD, download large files quickly and stream music at faster speeds. The smartphone's physical QWERTY keyboard and touch screen with the power of the BlackBerry 10 platform will help customers communicate and collaborate faster and more efficiently.
"Being a Rogers customer means you have access first to what's next in mobile technology. We're excited to be the first to offer Canadians a choice of the black or limited-time exclusive white BlackBerry Q10, enabled to run on our blazing fast 2600 MHz LTE spectrum," said John Boynton, executive vice president of marketing and chief marketing officer, Rogers Communications. "As we invest in innovative 2600 MHz-enabled devices, Rogers customers will continue to enjoy an enhanced, superior wireless experience versus any other carrier."
Rogers announced earlier this month it will expand its LTE 2600 network to 44 new markets this spring. Among these new markets are Saint John, New Brunswick; Medicine Hat, Alberta; Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario; Muskoka, Ontario and Collingwood, Ontario. Rogers has deployed more 2600 MHz spectrum than any other Canadian carrier.
Offering a powerful and unique new mobile computing experience, the re-designed, re-engineered and re-invented BlackBerry 10 platform offers customers a faster and smarter experience that continuously adapts to their needs.
The BlackBerry Q10 is designed to keep customers moving and includes advancements such as:
The BlackBerry Q10 will be available at Rogers retail and dealer locations across Canada in the coming weeks, starting at $199.99 with select three year plans.
Current Rogers wireless customers were among the first to reserve the BlackBerry Q10 smartphone on the Rogers Reservation System earlier this year and pre-orders for new customers are available today at rogers.com. For more information about BlackBerry Q10, visit: www.blackberry.com/BlackBerry10.

And what: on April 9th they can't give a specific launch date within the remaining 3 weeks of the month?
An entire 552 word press release covers EVERY aspect of Rogers, its LTE network that - BTW - is equally-spec'd vs.its competitors (Bell, Telus, et.al), but DARE we find out WHEN the damn thing can be purchased.
This is either due to Rogers' wacky inability to accurately schedule everything from installations to service calls, OR some convoluted marketing twist to keep the actual launch a BIG SECRET until THEY decide we're all adult-enough to stomach knowing the exact day; probably just 1-3 days ahead.
Ironic that our 'other,' smaller, f&@#%-up carrier has already press-released April 29th as their launch date. Yet, while I vowed never to go back 'there' I will give them kudos for having the stones to at least put the launch date in writing "now" instead of playing stupid mystery-games.
There are dozens of reasons I'm not a Rogers customer, and this kind of BS is just one element in that conscious decision.
Actually, if you read their press release, its available for delivery from the 29th of April with 2-3 days expected delivery time. So their launch date is May 1st or May 2nd?
@ tfp, WTH am I missing here? WHERE in the Rogers Press Release (above) does it say ANYTHING about April 29th, May 1st or 2nd, or 2-3 days expected delivery ... "etc."?
I think you're recalling the Telus Press Release ... but that's of no concern to the Rogers PR.
Balti43 Apr 10, 2013 at 3:36 pm
Bro you just need to go to the fridge get an Arnold Palmer kick-back and surround yourself with good people, you'll forget about time and then before then it'll be available for purchase at your local Rogers store before you know it.
mrskycar Apr 9, 2013 at 9:47 am
Now that right there is the phone I want.
lando989 Apr 9, 2013 at 9:54 am
Glad to know that the Q is coming to Rogers on that fancy new 2600 LTE network. That will make it even better here in winnipeg where I've been driving past all the LTE advertising from Rogers, even though there is no LTE here yet!!!!!
It's been a year Rogers, get your stuff together and deliver.

JUSTQUAN2 Apr 9, 2013 at 10:04 am
Can I buy this unlocked??? Also does the LTE bands match up with AT&T? If so I will be buying this from the neighbors up north.
machoman1337 Apr 9, 2013 at 10:53 am
No but you can buy it outright and buy an unlock code afterwards for less than $40.
And yes the LTE bands used by Rogers, Bell, and Telus are the same as AT&T.

@dejanh, I couldn't agree with you more. That price way off in todays competitive market

Was there a previous kind of LTE before 2600 MHz?

Sad that the Canadian Z10 models don't support 2600 MHz LTE. Not sure what practical effect this has though.

fireboy2281 Apr 9, 2013 at 1:09 pm
I don't understand why they didn't go with a design similar to the TK Victory design. They don't seem to understand users want maximized screen real estate. The space on top where the logo is, is totally wasted. They could've easily gone without it and increase screen size. In my opinion the phone looks dated. I am sticking to my bold 9900 for now.
kupfernigk Apr 9, 2013 at 2:40 pm
There is a lot in that space above the screen. I suggest you go and learn about the design of handheld electronics and then come back and write "They could've easily gone without it..." The modern mobile phone is one of the hardest products to design well; it has the entire functionality of a mid-2000s laptop* in a space much smaller than the CD-rom on that laptop. All the major manufacturers, and some minor ones, have excellent designs in their portfolio and they all have weaknesses as well as strengths, because nobody can do everything for a price people can afford. The TK Victory would have priced itself out of the market.
*The state of the art laptop I had in 2005 had 2G of RAM, a dual core processor, a 60Gbyte hard drive and a display with roughly a million pixels. The Q10 is expandable with 64Gbytes (but the display is only half a Mpx.) It also will cost less than half as much. This is called "Moore's Law" by some people and "Progress" by others.
fireboy2281 Apr 9, 2013 at 2:51 pm
Take a look at the S4 and HTC one.
mavricxx Apr 9, 2013 at 6:02 pm
"The TK Victory would have priced itself out of the market."
- Get real dude! like fireboy2281 said, check out the S4 & HTC one. BlackBerry dropped the ball on this one! I was so looking forward to a bigger screen, that's why I got the Z10 but the specs are mediocre at best, if it wasn't cause I'm a loyal follower and like what it can do (multitask, best keyboard, ease of use, options etc...) I would have waited for the SG4. Even now I am half please cause they left out a bunch of features from the Bridge and alot of my favorite apps in my 9900 are missing.
Rootbrian Apr 12, 2013 at 7:55 pm
Manufacturers who use android never care about performance and battery life or iser experience. Blackberry did it right and it's so much better. Compare it performance wise to the android ones. Yes, do it. :)
Rootbrian Apr 12, 2013 at 7:54 pm
Android=spec race. No silky smooth or battery saving like the Z10 and Q10 have.
robin11 Apr 9, 2013 at 1:33 pm
Blackberry doesn't list LTE 2600 MHz on any of the Q10 models. Whats up with that?
Rootbrian Apr 12, 2013 at 7:56 pm
Rogers having false advertising again. -.-
MobiusSamurai Apr 9, 2013 at 2:29 pm
It is me or does the pricing of this seem off? I thought the Q10 was going to cost less than the Z10. Maybe there are some huge orders in the wings for the keyboard and everyone is looking to profit before the price drop but the pricing seems a little off if 'touch screen is the way of the future'.
sk8er_tor Apr 9, 2013 at 2:57 pm
Why on earth would it cost less? This is BlackBerry's top of the line flagship QWERTY device.
MobiusSamurai Apr 9, 2013 at 3:29 pm
I think it was a combination of the lack of the $50 hardware rebate (Z10 - $650 and Q10-$700) and that they are potentially coming out with a cheaper version later in the year. So confusion on my part. I thought that this was the cheaper version.
SparkyBC Apr 9, 2013 at 2:37 pm
$700 Blackberry is really out to lunch. How much of a premium is going to their pockets? Sure that is where the bread and butter customers are. But $700 for this phone? Seriously out to lunch for what a person is getting.
DJRikko Apr 9, 2013 at 3:02 pm
If you can't afford it out right, I suggest the option of a contract. Don't want a contract? Then wait for the lower priced BlackBerry 10 coming later this year.
I don't think it's too much, it's about average to ask for $700, and really, they have to. To say they are "Out to Lunch" is ridiculous because from the little we know, we at least do know that the Z10 didn't price itself out of the market.
Moreover, the Q10 is the true BlackBerry that a lot of die hards have been waiting for. Personally, my Z10 is amazing and priced right.

Snowman888 Apr 9, 2013 at 4:24 pm
So what does this 2600 band mean? it's faster?
Rootbrian Apr 12, 2013 at 7:58 pm
Last I checked, none of the blackberry's even support that frequency. None of the phones do, unless the specs are matched up.
mavricxx Apr 9, 2013 at 5:57 pm
They can keep their 3 yr plans with that small screen and mediocre specs!

Mediocre? Please do your searching again. Android is in the spec race, blackberry isn't. Go troll elsewhere.

Gotta say, this kind of pisses me off. I made my reservation the first day it was available at Rogers, but they only showed black as an option, now they have white, and if I want to reserve a white one instead, I have to cancel my reservation and place a new one in order to get it. Not at all cool Rogers.

Maybe I'm just old fashioned but white never really seems to suit a Blackberry.

The white is pretty sexy but seems a bit pricey for the agreement terms? Though I do live in the US so maybe this is normal?

Sounds like a serious Rogers ad more than any article from a tech site.

You got that right.

There is so much information (and misinformation) leading up to the draft, it's hard to separate fact from fiction. That's why a lot of Bills fans wonder if there is any truth to what former Bills wide receiver Andre Reed wrote on his Twitter account on Thursday.
Reed, who will announce the team's second-round pick in New York City next week, suggested that the Bills would use that pick on Florida State quarterback Christian Ponder.
"@cponder7 Lookin forward to calling your name Draft Day!!!!!!!!!Bills brash like ur style" Reed said.
Interestingly, the tweet was removed quickly. But you know how Twitter works. Once something is put out there, however brief, someone is going to see it and run with it.
Don't dismiss Reed's tweet entirely. The Bills spent more time with Ponder this offseason than any other quarterback, beginning at the Senior Bowl when he played for the coaching staff. Ponder also met with the Bills at the NFL Scouting Combine and they brought him to Buffalo for another pre-draft visit. Also, Bills head coach Chan Gailey and Ponder go back to Ponder's high school days when Gailey tried to recruit him while coaching at Georgia Tech.
The most likely scenario still has the Bills taking a quarterback with the third overall pick, assuming Auburn's Cam Newton is available. If he's gone, the Bills might use their first pick on a defensive player. That means they could target quarterback in Round Two or use that 34th selection to trade into the back end of the first round, especially if there is a run on quarterbacks as some people suspect.
Since the Bills like Ponder, it's not that far-fetched they would pull the trigger if they have a shot at him late in the first round or early in the second.

Residents are urged to send their poems and artwork to firstname.lastname@example.com by April 19. Submitted items will continue to be collected on the city's website after the deadline.
Young offers this poem as an example:
Stewart Ave.
January 12, 2011
The sun went bowling here today.
It rolled from the snow-covered lot at one end of the street
past picket fences, barking dogs and bird feeders,
past bungalows and brick colonials,
past cigarette-smoking city workers and Nature's Nibbles
and hit a strike at the avenue's end,
scattering its rays through the windows
of Mt. Vernon Community School.
