One of my favorite nuke stories
The late Clarence Lushbaugh was a bit of a curmudgeon, no stranger to controversy, and an incredibly bright man (Ph.D. and M.D. at the University of Chicago) with a wicked sense of humor. He was an important figure in radiation research, nationally and internationally, working the early part of his career at Los Alamos before moving to Oak Ridge -- where he headed radiation medicine at Oak Ridge Associated Universities and helped create the Radiation Emergency Assistance Center/Training Site (REACTS).
Depending on one's relationship with "Lush," as he apparently preferred to be called, you might quake from intimidation or laugh at his snarly remarks and big presence. Anyway, Lushbaugh was one of the radiation experts the U.S. government called upon for assistance in the wake of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster, April 26, 1986. He was dispatched to Eastern Europe -- where he visited U.S. embassies and dispensed advice on the radioactive fallout from the explosion at Chernobyl's Reactor 4.
Some months after he returned from the trip, he spoke at a seminar at Baptist Hospital in Knoxville -- where he shared some data and anecdotes from his experience. It was vintage Lushbaugh.
First off, he marveled at the way the Soviets (yes, it was still the Soviet Union at the time) evacuated about 135,000 residents from the Chernobyl area within six days of the nuclear accident. He noted that the Soviets were able to mobilize 3,000 physicians and 2,400 nurses within 12 hours of the accident and within 40 minutes of the explosion, 29 plant workers had already been hospitalized for burns and other injuries.
"If it had happened in the United States, I seriously doubt you could get that kind of reaction," he said.
Within 15 minutes, a medical alert at Chernobyl had been answered, Lusbhaugh said. At a U.S. facility, officials probably would scurry around looking for a screwdriver to unhook the alarm, he said.
On his trip to Eastern Europe, he visited Leningrad, Moscow, Warsaw, Bucharest, Frankfurt and other cities where rad fallout from the accident was a concern. Lushbaugh said he spent much of his time meeting with Americans living or traveling abroad and trying to convince them that they weren't in serious danger.
He said he most admired an oilman from Odessa, Texas, who asked at the beginning of one meeting, "Do we have a radioactive problem?" When Lushbaugh told him there was no problem, the man turned to his wife and said, "C'mon, Harriet, let's go."
My favorite part of his Chernobyl talk was a story about breakfast at a cafe in Bucharest. While reading the local paper, Lushbaugh said he came across this unusual item in the personal ads:
"Radio-active man seeks radio-passive woman."
He was joking, of course.
I'm almost sure that was a joke.
Because we all laughed.

There are less than 20 days until the March 1st Sequester deadline. And Washington is gearing up for a major fight. If politicians can't come to a compromise, the looming $85 billion of Republican austerity is set to make devastating cuts to programs many Americans depend on. Despite non-defense spending being 14% lower than it has been in a half-century, deficit hawks in the Republican party want more austerity imposed on the working poor in our nation.
Democrats on the House Appropriations Committee estimate that additional cuts will have a devastating impact on food safety, aviation safety, early education, disaster relief, and law enforcement. And vital programs like WIC, which helps low-income women provide food for their infants and toddlers, may be forced to tell 600,000 women and children to go hungry.
In his weekly YouTube address over the weekend, President Obama again called on Congress to act now in order to avoid "deep, indiscriminate" cuts. He called out the Republicans directly saying, "they would rather ask more from the vast majority of Americans and put our recovery at risk, than close even a single tax loophole that benefits the wealthy." Rather than working to avert the impending crisis, House Republicans like Speaker John Boehner are simply using it to attack our President...coining the ridiculous term "Obama-quester."
No country, in the history of the world, has ever cut it's way to prosperity. We can only hope that Congress starts considering a smarter approach – like the Sanders-Schakowsky Corporate Tax Fairness Act – and prevent devastating austerity. Stay tuned.

Since our new site has gone live we keep hearing great feedback
about our Keyword Search! People love the ability to be specific with their
search criteria. We understand that many of our clients have a specific need
and are only looking for a certain type of property. Our keyword search is one
way we are making your home/property search an enjoyable and simplified
process. If you are looking for a property in only one of two towns, and one
that must be a horse property, why would you sift through 36 properties in
those towns when you really only have to look at two?
To help simplify your search find "Search By Keyword" under the
"Search Listings" pull-down tab.
Examples of Common Searches:
GOLF ~ Have you ever imagined your back yard extending directly into,
like say the 11th fairway of a professionally manicured golf course?
So close, that the landscaping crew is now improving the exterior of your lawn
with their precise cuts and attention to detail? Close enough that you can grab
your 7-iron, walk out your back French doors and play a quick par 4? Type "Golf
" and find homes that will make your dream a reality!
Equestrian ~ "Horse Property" or simply
"horse," will also be adequate keywords to try when looking for an Equestrian
Property. A home that will fulfill all the needs of a horse owner can be found,
but obviously there are not an abundance of them out there in the marketplace.
Weed out the properties off the top that don't have a chance of housing your
Waterfront ~ This is one of the top searches on
seaportre.com and continues to
grow every month! You can also search specifically for "Waterfront Properties"
under the "Search Listings" tab.
Masons Island ~ Simply type in
"Masons Island" and you will find all the Masons Island Homes currently for
sale. In addition to the residential properties this key word search can be
used to find the 16 remaining lots/land on the Island. Masons Island is like no
other part of Mystic Country and increasing demand makes this a constant search
Probate ~ Search properties in a specific area
that are subject to court approval or are that fall under probate. Typically
properties in probate will require some elbow grease but can yield a great
value. Also, type "short-sale" or "foreclosure" to find properties that are
typically being searched for by our bargain hunters.
Other great keywords used to expose deals in the marketplace
Relo, motivated, financing, must sell.

After finally getting their first Big Ten win two weeks ago, Ohio State has lost two straight. The first loss was to hapless Wisconsin while the second was to a top 10 Penn State squad; the common aspect of both losses was disastrous second half collapses where the normally hot shooting Buckeyes couldn't hit the broadside of a barn. OSU's 11-9 overall, 1-6 Big Ten, record made this game a must win if the Buckeyes want to make the NCAA tournament. The importance of this game was not lost on Coach Foster who tinkered with his starting lineup, inserting Maleeka Kynard and Aleksandra Dobranic into the lineup next to Tayler Hill, Ameryst Alston, and Ashley Adams.
In another new twist, Ohio State opened in a zone defense struggled to match-up well on the perimeter and Nebraska took advantage by hitting a quick trio of three pointers to take an 11-4 lead six and a half minutes into the game. The Buckeyes responded though, capitalizing on some Nebraska turnovers to score 7 straight points, tying the game at 11 midway through the first half. The two teams would go back and forth for the next several minutes before the Cornhuskers went on 10-0 run to take a 34-21 lead with eighteen seconds remaining in the half. Tayler Hill would convert an old fashioned three point play in the closing sections to trim the Nebraska lead to 34-24 as the teams headed into the locker rooms.
Ohio State did not have a great shooting first half, hitting only 35% of their shots and going 0 of 7 from beyond the arc. The Buckeyes continued to struggle with turnovers, losing the ball 10 times leading to 11 points for the Cornhuskers. Defensively OSU struggled, only forcing 5 turnovers while allowing Nebraska to hit 40% of their shots including 5 three pointers. The one positive from the first half was the Buckeyes did a much better job of boxing out than they had for much of the past year and a half, resulting in them out-rebounding the Cornhuskers 19 to 14.
Ohio State looked much better to start the second half, hitting their first two baskets to cut the Nebraska lead to 34-28 just over a minute into the half. Unfortunately Nebraska got their offense going at that point and the two teams began trading baskets. Several times OSU would start to put things together and get the Nebraska lead down to 6 only to see the Cornhuskers respond with some well-timed baskets that kept the Buckeyes at arm's reach as Nebraska pulled off the 62-53 win.
Ohio State's shooting didn't get any better in the second half and the Buckeyes finished the game shooting 38% from the field and 8% from three point range. OSU did cut down on the turnovers, committing only 6 after intermission to finish with 16 and the Buckeyes won the rebounding battle 35 to 28. Unfortunately the OSU defense couldn't stop Nebraska as the Cornhuskers were 44% from the field and 9 of 25 from beyond-the-arc.
Tayler Hill led the Buckeyes with 22 points and 6 assists while also pulling down 5 rebounds and 2 steals. She was joined in double figures by center Ashley Adams who had a double-double with 12 points and 10 rebounds. In her second game back from injury Amber Stokes came off the bench to score 6 points, dish out 3 assists, and come up with 3 rebounds and a steal.
At this point in the season it appears that the wheels have fallen off for Ohio State. While they have been in a slump for the past 5 weeks, the Buckeyes had at least been shooting well, over 40%, in most of their losses. Unfortunately, whether it is due to lack of confidence or something else, OSU's shooting has fallen apart over the past three games and the Buckeye defense is not good enough to win games without at least some help from the offense. Coach Foster attempted to fix some of the issues with the defense by playing a zone tonight but it was clear from the outset that the Buckeyes were having trouble matching up on the perimeter and Nebraska took advantage by draining three pointers. Despite Nebraska's success from beyond-the-arc, Foster never adjusted the defense and the result was the Cornhusker's being able to answer every Buckeye run in the second half.
Throughout much of the early part of the season various Buckeyes looked like they could step up and provide additional scoring threats to make for a more well-rounded offense. There were pretty much no signs of that tonight as Hill and Adams had to carry most of the load and that seemed to take a toll on the two as they both looked tired as the second half wore on. Hill has done an admirable job of trying to carry this team on her back this season and considering she is the Big Ten's leading scorer it is easy to say that she has done her share. It is now time for other people, especially the younger players to step up.
Winning out and a good run in the Big Ten tournament could still get Ohio State a berth in the NCAA tournament but there is no margin for error left and the Buckeyes need to turn this around now. OSU will get one of their best remaining chances for a win on Sunday as they travel to Bloomington to take on Indiana. The Buckeyes beat the Hoosiers 68-45 two weeks ago in Columbus but this OSU team looks like a shell of its former self, maybe another game against Indiana is what it will take to right the ship.
Nice summary, Charles. I followed this on GameTracker last night, and although I didn't see the plays, I interpreted it pretty much as you did.
It seemed that OSU dug itself into a hole the 1st half and never could quite close the gap. Since I didn't actually see the game, I couldn't tell if OSU's shooting woes were due to Nebraska defense or OSU brick-laying.
Tayler Hill may indeed be trying to do too much, but I think she had an off shooting night. She got 8 of her 22 points from free throws, and if the the play-by-play was accurate, she only made 1 jump shot, the rest of her field scoring was lay-ups.
Peeling back the game stats a bit, it looked like OSU shot a pretty good 47% from 2-point range, but the 1-fer from 3-pt range hurt quite a bit.

The Page 1 Friday story headlined "State fish deputy seeks cod crackdown," misreported the length of a fathom as equal to 3 feet.
In fact, a fathom is equal to 6 feet in length, so the proposal to ban gillnet fishing in depths less than 30 fathoms would bar gillnetting in less than 180 feet of water.

I have reached 150 US dollar from Google Adsense this month. It is not a huge amount of money. I still wonder why many successful bloggers get 10 K to 20 K a month from blogging. This is not my question alone, this is the question from many bloggers. So, what I do is trying to get the answer from successful bloggers on the internet. I choose two from sixty bloggers which Paula Neal Mooney mentioned in the blog. They are Joel Comm and John Chow. After reading many articles which they wrote in their blogs or websites, I conclude that they re-invest their income in projects that are still related to their main blogging business. They write books containing their success stories. From the books which they write and sell, they get more money and they are getting more and more famous. These books actually are their marketing tools.They do not have to spend a lot of money for advertising their websites or blogs. They just sell their books and at the same time promote their blogs written in those books. It is a nice idea. So, how I invest the 150 bucks which I just got from Google Adsense. The answer is simple. I pay my telephone bill. I spend a lot of money reading articles about how to make a good blog that is interesting and is able to attract thousands of visitors everyday.What I get from reading a lot of articles about blogging? Easy answer: "Content is King." I write in blogspot. It means this blog is hosted by Google. So, I don't have to worry about whether Google wants index my blog or not. I just need to focus on the content. Let Google handle the search engine. That's the most important thing that we must know. Just focus on the content. That is the best investment I can make from the 150 US dollars Google Adsense gave me this month. It means I only need to buy a bag of coffee beans and spend it for the next month writing more stories about how to make money from home by blogging.


text: The site looks promising, but obviously still has a ways to go. Searches for many of the more uncommon surnames I've been researching lately turned up absolutely nothing. The majority of the results for more common surnames appear to be coming from published family histories on subscription sites World Vital Records and Ancestry.com, as well as Illya's own genealogy subscription site, Family Tree Connection. Results from the Live Roots Web site will also point users to names found in published, off-line resources, such as the published books currently included in the database from Higginson Book Company. According to Illya, there are additional features, more catalogs and links in the pipeline to be added in coming weeks, months and years. The goal is for Live Roots to become a site where genealogists can keep up with what's new from a variety of publishers of genealogical data, as well as to help determine when a particular genealogical resource in which you're interested might be available for free or from a service to which you already subscribe.

Swimsuit shopping can be cruel. After months of cloaking your body in layers of cardigans and trousers, you're supposed to emerge from your cocoon and try on itty bitty pieces of fabric under fluorescent lights.
It's not fair; it's not fun; and it might be the reason you've been holding onto that sagging, piling one-piece for the past eight summers.
Well, the forecast calls for summer-around-the-corner, so I figured I might as well attack the necessary evil of swimsuit shopping and transform it into a (gasp!) more enjoyable experience. Here are some tips that will prevent mental breakdown in the dressing room.
1. Get Some Color
One of the biggest hurdles I face while ripping off the warm clothes is the translucent hue of my winter skin. While you might be all about the Nicole Kidman skin year round (I applaud this), I happen to need a little color to get myself in the summer mindset. And this, my friends, is where I reintroduce you to my best friend: the self tanner. You might think I'm high maintenance that I give myself artificial sun-kissed color before bathing suit shopping, but I say, do whatever you have to do to ensure you're happily walking out of the store with a bag of bikinis.
2. Take It Home
Sometimes the cutest clothes turn into monsters when they travel from the rack to your body. Though this occasionally has to do with fit (uh, because the garment is made poorly, not because your bum is shapely!), it also might be due to the unflattering environment of dressing rooms. Overhead lighting is an evil beast, and I say take the garment out of the devil's den and into the comfort of your own home before you make your final decision. As long as store policy allows you to return it, trying on your bathing suit at home is infinitely helpful in determining how you look in natural light and with the cover-ups and accessories you already own.
3. Mix and Match
Color blocking and pattern mixing are very of-the-moment this summer, and this works to the advantage of your wallet. If you've already got a leopard print bikini bottom you love, head out in search of a striped top to pair with it, and you've suddenly got a trendy, fresh suit for half the cost. Or if solids are your thing, pick up a pair of inexpensive kelly green shorts to wear with your royal blue bandeau top. To make your life easy, stuff your already owned bathing suit in your purse so you can see what works while you're in the store.
4. Try new shapes
Itty, bitty string bikinis are not for everyone. Some days, the only beachwear that I feel like donning is a full body wet suit. To fall somewhere in the middle, opt for flattering one pieces or the new shape: high waisted, vintage inspired two pieces. You might think high waisted bottoms feel very old-fashioned, but when done in fresh colors and prints, they can be extremely flattering and modern. Throw on a pair of cat-eyed shades to top it off, and people will be calling you Grace Kelly.
So, these tips are all fine and dandy, but let's get down to the logistics. Here are my pics for the best local as well as online bathing suit shopping.
Where To Shop Locally:
SwimSpot at the Oaks Mall
at the Calbasas Commons
Planet Blue in Westlake Village
Ig Boarding Shop in Westlake Village
Beach Blvd Swimwear in Thousand Oaks
Nordstrom at the Oaks Mall
Where To Shop Online:
Happy shopping to you! And if I've left any of your favorite swimwear locales off the list, let me know in the comments.

Revision3 » Shows » Archive » Ask Jay » What is a Co-Founder & Should I Have One?
Successful entrepreneur and CEO, Jay Adelson, demystifies the start-up process by providing advice, tips, and answering questions. Today he discusses what a co-founder really means, and whether or not you should have one.
Jay's Chalkboard Notes:
1. A Founder is a person who comes up with an idea/concept, who initiates the process of building the business, who takes on the risk, and is the first person to quit their job to launch the company
2. Companies typically have ONE founder
3. Avoid co-founders if possible because it can lead to problems later
4. If you decide you have a co-founder, then make sure to clearly lay out the terms up front
5. You have a co-founder if two people collaborated on the idea, and both are working for the company
6. If you have co-founders, equity should be split 50/50
7. 1-2 points of equity is not a co-founder, rather a first hire or VP
8. Only give a co-founder title if expectations are defined up front
9. Get all expectations in writing
10. Only do it if it advances company
11. Avoid this if possible

Your takeaway assignment based on today's question is to decide if someone is a co-founder before you raise $$. First define the next big milestone, then decide if they're going to give 50% of the effort and risk towards accomplishing it. Be clear up front that they collaborated equally, map it out on paper. If they disagree now, they will disagree later. Discuss, conclude, map it out, THEN assign titles.

Voddler app for Symbian (Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland)
It seems that Voddler launched an app to be used with Symbian this time.
"The app is free and works on Symbian smartphones that have upgraded to Symbian Anna."
According to Voddler's website "at launch, the app has about 250 movies activated for mobile viewing, but new titles will be added on a running basis from Voddler's growing catalog of over 4,500 titles."
Since I'm not in any of the launch countries, I can't download it to test it.
Lets hope the number of countries where it is available, gets expanded alongside the catalog.
Get more info at Voddler's website
It seems that the app will be available for the N9 as well via Nokiagadgets.com.
Thanks for the link James
Category: Applications, Nokia, Symbian^3
About the Author (Author Profile)Hi there! Thanks for reading my post. I'm a gadget lover and my enthusiasm towards Nokia began over 10 years ago, when I laid eyes on my late 3210 ;) Since then, I've owned pretty much every flagship Nokia launched, having the 6230, N82, N8, 808 Pureview, as my favourites. You can contact me via Twitter @CSSThemes, or through the email CSS.Themes[at]ovi.com

I'm from Sweden, and I can confirm that it works like a charm
I havn't watched any movies yet but the app itself is really smooth. Was quite surprised actually how smooth it was.
and might come for N9 also. that's good.
I have try that app with new belle symbian phones. Haven't try with Anna. Good app.
Silky smooth on 3G, 3.5G and WiFi.
some that got the app says that it does not work when they connect it to thier tv with the hdmi cable.
Yes, I can confirm this one. At least those free movies give message that HDMi is not allowed and screen goes blank.
Havent't tried those that you have to pay to watch. Pretty dum, if you have to pay 4€ and you can't use your tv.
Otherwise the app works nice and smooth at least in wlan.
I have N8.
From Voddler's side, I can confirm that the video-out functionality on the app is disabled. We haven't got the film studios yet to agree to enable it; they don't trust that the copy protection/DRM system is strong enough on that connection. (Similarly, we haven't enabled video-out on our iOS or Android-apps.)
As you can imagine, it's not the end scenario we have in mind, and we're working hard to change it.
(For more info on the app, welcome to our blog at http://voddlertalk.voddler.com/2011/symbian-and-nokia-users-weve-got-an-app-for-you/.)

When will the media industry realise that constantly enforcing DRM on everything in such a way that will stiffle or limit the end consumers' enjoyment of that media content will only push more and more people to torrents! Especially when they've paid for it!!
Thanks for info. Are you planning to release the app for N9 as well? That would be awesome!
Any perspectives on the release of this app to other markets?
@ Jay
You neglected one minor detail
sorry I meant @CSS
I'll add the link to the post
All very nice, but the video app we want to see for Symbian is FX Studio, that was promised by Nokia over a year ago with the launch of the N8: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YInU12Aj6O0
Enquiries have recently been made to Framestore as to why it hasn't been released and they say they completed it and gave it to Nokia, who are now sitting on it.
Anyone on Twitter should tweet @phonedaz (Damien Dinning, head of Nokia N8 camera stuff which the Fx Studio app was designed to show off) to demand it's release!
yeah that was one of the main selling points really of the N8 weird that it never made its way to us
could someone upload the sis file or link the direct dl link?
even if we cant use it id like to see how the app runs :/
I able to download and install in my c7. the is file from this site http://www.symbianfan.com/2011/09/voddler-102-watch-movies-and-tv-series.html
but my country is not supported, any apps that i can be detected as supported country? any idea?

5.0 out of 5 stars Possibly the greatest rap album ever made.,
Cameron (Southern California) - See all my reviews
The year is 1994, a solo debut is on the rise for a 20 year old Nasir Jones, who witnesses ready to be told stories from his apartment window in Queens. He needs to make money, get out of this lifestyle he has been living for years and show the world his talent. Illmatic was originally supposed to be his only released cd, after this, he was going to retire and take his money. But the success of this timeless masterpiece led him to stay and share more of his talent with the world with other great/classic cd's.
An album that gets hate for being so short, really could of been shorter, it's just that perfect. First things first, we have "The Genesis". This is about 20-30 seconds of a man talking (I think this is from some old movie) where it eventually cuts off with a beat and AZ and other people talking with Nas about how they gotta change the game and light some Phillies and stuff, then at the end he declares, "Representing it's Illmatic." After he says that you just know some crazy s*** is about jump off. And so it does. Track 2, "NY State of Mind", the best song on the album in my opinion, defines what this album and what him as a rapper is about. He spits a long two verse narrative of life on the streets over a blazing DJ Premier beat and it's an instant classic with lines like, "It drops deep as the words in my breath, I never sleep cause sleep is the cousin of death." Next we have the calm and relaxing beat of "Life's a B****" featuring AZ. I don't want to say Nas gets outshined, but it's hard not to when AZ spits debatably one of his best verses in his career. In the last 45 seconds or so of the track, Nas's dad does a solo with his trumpet, very nice. Now we have the great track produced by Pete Rock, "The World is Yours". This is such a great track as Nas does what he does best and Pete drops a DOPE beat with scratching and just this crazy vibe, one of his best. After that it's "Halftime" which was a single and with good reason. The beat as with all the others is very nice and lyrically its amazing, "Nas why did you do it? You know you got the mad fat fluid when you rhyme, it's halftime." Indeed you do Nas, indeed you do. Then after that mafioso performance we have "Memory Lane (Sitting in the Park)". I love this track. Again produced by the master Premier, the beat is just almost depressing and makes you really zone out. What can I say about the lyrics, they're great just like every other song on this album while discussing street life. Now for track 7 and what is one of the most memorable tracks on the cd, "One Love". It features Q-Tip who does the chorus and produces this simple sounding, yet awesome beat. Nas is basically writing a letter to this friend and gives a shout out to another great lyricist who got noticed when Nas said his name, "Whattup with Cormega did you see him are yall together?". After that he gives us "One Time for Your Mind". This song doesn't get much recognition, and isn't the best cut on the cd, but every song here is a classic and great beat wise and lyrically. I guess you could just consider it an under-rated track on the album cause people think highly of it, but just hardly ever speak of it. It's produced by Large Professor who is a great producer and really comes through and of course, Nas does it one time for our minds. Track 9 and getting closer to the end, we have "Represent". Great song with a beat provided by the one and only DJ Premier. Nas just talks about keeping it real and obviously, representing as the last bit of the song is nothing but shout outs to people and NY. Finally it's here, the last track, "It Ain't Hard to Tell". Once again Large P. comes correct with the smooth, catchy beat. Nas spits some fierce rhymes on this track, some of the best too, check it out, "It ain't hard to tell, I excel, then prevail/The mic is contacted, I attract clientele/My mic check is life or death, breathin a sniper's breath/I exhale the yellow smoke of buddha through righteous steps/Deep like The Shinin', sparkle like a diamond/Sneak a uzi on the island in my army jacket linin/Hit the Earth like a comet, invasion/Nas is like the Afrocentric Asian, half-man, half-amazin/Cause in my physical, I can express through song/Delete stress like Motrin, then extend strong/I drank Moet with Medusa, give her shotguns in hell/From the spliff that I lift and inhale, it ain't hard to tell." If that isn't a great way to end an album then I don't know what is.
This is absolutely a timeless classic with no flaws to be found. It's possibly the greatest album lyrically and production wise, I mean every track has big name people like Premier, Alchemist, Large P., or Pete Rock, and even the one guest appearance from AZ is priceless. Words can't describe the gold that is implanted on this disc, its rap at its finest. If you don't have this album, GET IT, if you don't like it, then you probably don't understand rap and hip-hop because this album defines them. I guess Nas truly is the street's disciple.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic Album!,
Really love the album, nothing bad to say about the content.
But the disc case had two scrapes on the front which kind of bugged me considering it was packaged nicely when i received it only to pull out the scratched case.
5.0 out of 5 stars For a special friend,

Bootleg_Legend187 "Stillmatic" (Toronto, Ontario) - See all my reviews
This album has got to be the best I have ever heard. There are no tracks on this album that should be skipped. I have listened to a lot of albums over the last couple years and nothing comes close to this. I would have to say that Big L - Lifestylez Ov Da Poor And Dangerous, Jay-Z - Reasonable Doubt, Tupac - All Eyez On Me, and Notorious B.I.G. - Ready To Die come close to this album but none of them are better. Nas' story telling ability alone sets him apart from other rappers. When he raps you almost feel that you are a part of what he is spitting. Also, he almost always has a positive message in his songs and to me that counts for a lot. Now-a-days almost every rapper out there is rapping about cars, money and girls just to sell records but it seems that Nas doesn't care about how much he sells he just wants to put out music that almost all people can relate to. Make sure you pick up Street Disciple when it hits the stores September 24/04.....ONE LOVE
5.0 out of 5 stars One of The Greatest,
ryan "King" (Omaha, NE USA) - See all my reviews
"Illmatic" is basically one of the top five rap albums ever created. There's so much good in this album that I can't even write how much. I'd have to write a paragraph for every song.
My favorites:(NY State of Mind, Life's A Bitch, The World Is Yours, Sittin In Da Park, One Love, It Ain't Hard To Tell, and Represent). The other songs are also good. There's only 10 songs, but they're all listenable and so it provides no filler. Nas is prolly one of the greatest rappers of all time and Illmatic is his most memorable classic(other classics are Stillmatic and God's Son in my opinion).
5.0 out of 5 stars A Lyrical Slaughterhouse!!! Moment of Silence.,
Jasper Baptist (Memphis, TN) - See all my reviews
Best Hip-Hop album of all time!! Yes, this is better than any 2Pac album ever. 2Pac wasn't even this much of an genius. This album changed the face of hip-hop forever. Back when the hip-hop was ran by the east coast, Nas was the only person that took hip hop back to its roots. He was the best rapper on the east coast, not Biggie. In my opinion Biggie wasn't even on the same level as Nas. If Biggie was still alive today he wouldn't be better than Nas. This ablum literally makes me cry, because I think about how the rap game is today, and it's pathetic. Illmactic is so ahead of its time. Just think when have you ever heard an album like this. I'll help you out, you haven't. It's been ten years since Illmatic came out, and there still isn't an album like this. My question is, Will there ever be?? Nas certainly secured his spot as one of the best emcees ever, if not the best ever. In my opinion if Nas isn't the best ever, then he ties 2Pac for the number 1 spot. Nas doesn't have to talk about guns, girls, and money. It seems like he is better than that. Everyone just follows behind what somebody else does in hip hop today. If don't believe me just listen to Slick Rick and Biggie. Slick Rick originizied the art of story telling and Biggie just came behind Slick Rick and did the same thing, he just added violence to his stories. Also all of Nas's albums sound very different. You can't say that for any other artists, not even 2Pac himself. You never know where Nas is coming from. Perfect example who would've thought that Nas would come out with "If I Ruled The World" after the classic "Illmatic". In conclusion "Illmatic" is a must have for any music fan, not just hip hop fan. If don't have this album, then you are really missing out on the essence of TRUE HIP-HOP!!!
4.0 out of 5 stars what ia yall talking about,
Darnell Kelly (Chicago ,iL) - See all my reviews
Yall crazy saying Nas is better than JAY-Z .Nas is the king of contadiction he is not real.He is a good rapper but he is not deep like people think he is .He is not even better than Busta Rhymes,M.O.P OR Eminem.
5.0 out of 5 stars Best Rap Album Ever. Period.,
William Mann (Norwalk, CT) - See all my reviews
Okay...I am the type of person who believes that everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I never question people's preferences when it comes to music or ANYTHING, but in this case I have to say that if you think this album is over-rated or wack...I'm sorry but you have NO idea what you are talking about. This album is 100 percent pure hip-hop bliss...from start to finish. The best lyrics I've ever heard combined with the best UNDERGROUND production ever. If you ain't feeling this CD, you probably think Nelly is the best emcee ever. This album is not about bling-blinging, or drinking moet, or flossing in your Benz...this about life in the projects...plain and simple...and absolutely poetic. I bought this CD on the day it came out, and everytime I listen to it I am still amazed at how good it is. Too bad this was Nas' only good album...after this he drifted in to crossover rap and never gained this greatness again. I urge you...if you don't have this CD and you like REAL rap (not Nelly, or Jay-Z, or Cash-Money Wackanaires) please do yourself a favor and get this. Nas is absolutely relentless on this CD. And if you already have Illmatic, and you appreciate its rawness, you should really check out "The Realness" by Cormega. I would put that album second behind Illmatic as the greatest of all time.
"Somehow the rap game reminds me of the crack game, used to sport ballys and gazelles with black frames, now I'm into fat chains sex and tecs, fly new chicks and new kicks, Hienie's and Beck's"----NAS, from Illmatic

If gas prices go up further, blame Canada
Pipeline plan would manipulate what Midwest farmers and consumers pay.
Philip K. Verleger
In the second week of March, Minnesotans paid an average of 42 cents more for a gallon of gas than they did just two weeks ago.
The price spike stems from Mideast unrest and speculation about its future.
But foreign oil interests are planning a deliberate manipulation of the U.S. oil market that would raise gas prices for Midwest farmers and consumers even higher.
Who's behind the plan? Not OPEC.
It's Canada.
The Canadian oil industry, with the strong backing of Prime Minister Stephen Harper's government, wants to build a pipeline to move crude oil from Alberta to the Gulf of Mexico.
The firms involved have asked the U.S. State Department to approve this project, even as they've told Canadian government officials how the pipeline can be used to add at least $4 billion to the U.S. fuel bill.
U.S. farmers, who spent $12.4 billion on fuel in 2009, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, could see expenses rise to $15 billion or higher in 2012 or 2013 if the pipeline goes through.
At least $500 million of the added expense would come from the Canadian market manipulation.
Of course, American consumers will pay the price of this highway robbery. Food prices will rise because they reflect farm operating costs.
In addition, millions of Americans will spend 10 to 20 cents more per gallon for gasoline and diesel fuel as tribute to our "friendly" neighbors to the north.

I have owned a Vectra CD for 4 years and have had the stalling problem quite a bit. I took it to Holden service centre a couple of times and they cleaned out carbon from the filters at a cost of $60.00 a time.
I have since found that if I put the best petrol in it, for example the most expensive petrol, it doesn't stall anymore. I don't know why but it seems to work.

Armstrong, Hughes headed for Hood
HOOD RIVER — The women's battle at the 2011 Mt. Hood Cycling Classic is shaping up to be one for the ages. A race that has previously hosted French superstars Jeannie Longo and Edwige Pitel will be a showdown between two North American heavy hitters this year.
Olympic gold medalist and two-time World Champion Kristin Armstrong will be burning up the roads with recent Tour of the Gila overall winner and six-time Olympic medalist Clara Hughes as both legendary riders stage career comebacks targeting the 2012 Olympics.
Race Director Chad Sperry said Thursday that Armstrong will be part of a full eight-rider squad from the Peanut Butter & Co. TWENTY12 Women's Professional Cycling Team. Hughes, a Canadian riding without teammates, bested current U.S. National Road Race Champion Mara Abbott by more than two minutes at the Gila. Sperry said Hughes will be bringing a composite squad along to help in the quest to add Mt. Hood to her palmares.
"Judging by her performance at Gila, Hughes is on fire and easily on track to qualify for the Olympics and actually be a medal contender," Sperry said.
Hughes, 38, and Armstrong, 37, were headed for a showdown at the Tour of the Gila in New Mexico before Armstrong came down with the flu-like symptoms and had to abandon after stage 1.
"(Armstrong) is on such a short training and racing schedule this year, there's really not anything on the NRC schedule she's gonna touch except the Cascade Cycling Classic," Sperry said. "So I was a little taken aback when I got the call form the team manager saying they were sending a full team of eight to support Kristin at Mt. Hood as opposed to doing the Liberty Classic back there in Philadelphia."
The addition of Armstrong's pro squad and a team of elite riders supporting Hughes should give a big boost to a women's race that almost disappeared last year because of steadily decreasing participation and support. Now it could be one of the hottest women's races to watch.
"This has the makings, based off the epic nature of this course, and with these two gals coming in, to be an amazing showdown," Sperry said. "And the only other place people are going to get a chance to see these two match up again is the Cascade Cycling Classic."
The four-day, four stage pro/am Mt. Hood Cycling Classic starts Thursday, June 2, in Hood River with the Panoramic Point Prologue Time Trial. It continues Friday the Columbia Hills Road Race that winds along stretches of the Historic Columbia River Gorge Highway. Saturday features a morning time trial across the river in Trout Lake, Washington, and an evening criterium in downtown Hood River. Sunday's Queen stage introduces the return of the Three Summits Road Race, a course in the Mt. Hood National Forest that will provide 75 miles and 8,000 feet of climbing for Hughes and Armstrong to push each other to their limits.
Peanut Butter & Co.'s Coryn Rivera, 18, will also be joining Armstrong in Hood River for the race, but only after her her team worked out logistics with her high school graduation. The young racer from California won 32 National Championships as a junior in road, track and cyclocross. She is the most decorated junior cyclist in all of America, either male or female. Rivera highlighted her potential in 2009 by outsprinting the women's NRC field to win the Cascade Cycling Classic criterium stage.
"I was astounded to watch her school all the pro women at the women's criterium in Bend," Sperry said. "And she did it on junior gearing. We had Laura van Gilder, Tina Pic, Brooke Miller, I mean every big hitter in the U.S. sprinting world was there and she schooled them on junior gearing."
Rivera may get her chance in the crit, but the team will be working for Armstrong in the overall battle. Armstrong won the World Championship Time Trial in 2006 and 2009 and brought home the Olympic Time Trial gold in 2008. The Boise, Idaho, resident is also a three-time National Road Race Champion and took second at the 2007 World Championship Time Trial. She is returning to cycling after missing the 2010 season to have a baby with her husband, Joe Savola, and to direct the Peanut Butter & Co. team through its first year. She won three stages and the overall at the Sea Otter Classic omnium last month in one of her first races back.
Hughes has won multiple Olympic medals in both speedskating and cycling. She won two bronze medals in the Summer Olympics in 1996 and four medals (one gold, one silver, two bronze) over the course of three Winter Olympics. Hughes is one of only five people to have won medals in both versions of the games, and she is the only person ever to have won multiple medals in both. She left cycling in 2003 after accumulating 18 Canadian National Championships along with her Olympic medals, and has been focused solely on speedskating until this year.
"This is probably going to be the most exciting women's race we've had in the history of the Mt. Hood Cycling Classic," Sperry said. "I'd have thought it would have been three years ago when we were UCI, but this has the makings of being legendary. Both women are trying to get time trial spots on their Olympic teams for the 2012 games, so this will be another opportunity to see these women clash with each other all the way up to 2012. The only way to top this would have been to get Jeannie Longo in the mix."
Not to be outdone by the women's field, the men's pro/am race will also feature an Olympic gold medalist. Fifty-year-old Alexi Grewal, winner of the 1984 Los Angeles Olympic Road Race, is making a comeback this year and has signed up to take on Mt. Hood.

The producer is one of the most crucial yet anonymous figures in all of music. In some songs, the producer is both the band leader and the band, yet his or her name is often unknown. Every other week, with Beat Construction, an extension of our column in the magazine, we aim to illuminate the role producers are playing in creating some of our favorite music. This week, we talk with Lil Lody, the Memphis producer whose sound has been closely linked with Lex Luger. The two of them are credited together on Jeezy's best track in some time, "Ballin," and he also produced the monster "Rollin" for Gunplay, along with a gang of other digital drum fill bangers. Read an interview with him below and click to the next page to hear some of his best productions.
How was rap in Memphis important to you growing up? It really started like this: they were some of the major people I worked with. I produced a lot of stuff for them, you know, and it went from there. Once I started producing tracks for them, more people started hearing it and more people started reaching out to me and they wanted the same kind of sound or feel that I was giving them.
When you were a kid, do you remember hearing their music for the first time? Yeah, I was like 13 or 14 when I first started bumping Three 6 Mafia. They had a big influence on the city. Really, they ran the whole city. Everybody looked up to them, everybody listened to Three 6. Therefore, it had a big influence on me to do my thing and made me sound like them because so many people wanted their style and so many people wanted to be like them.
What made you want to start making music yourself? It was because basically, honestly, I was more of a rapper at first. I used to record in the studio when I was like 13 or 14. One day, I was recording in the studio, I'm rapping, and the dude who was engineering me, he was also a producer, so he was playing his beats. The beat was tight, and I asked him how much he'd charge me for it, but he tried to overcharge me for it so I was like, "Nah, I'm gonna find my way around this". So I started making my own beats. I've been doing it since I was 14 and now I'm 22. I got the world in my hands.
What was your next step after that producer tried to overcharge? That exact date, after I left the studio, I went home and I got on the internet and searched for beat-making programs. It just so happens that I ran across Fruityloops. I was like 14 or 15 or something like that. I was going to school and as soon as I got out of school, I'd come home and put in work on that. I'm talking about every day, non-stop, I was doing something. The first day I downloaded it, I made a hit song.
At what point did you start playing tracks for other people? Other people started hearing my beats because I was real popular in school, so the whole school knew that I'd done it. Besides them, I was doing for free tracks for artists that were buzzing in the city. They were buzzed in Memphis, not worldwide, but buzzed in Memphis. Everybody used to be like, "Damn, this is tight! I want the same producer, whoever he is. Let me meet him, let me come get some. Where he at?"
When did curtail your own rapping career? When I started seeing the fast money. That's when I started getting money for it and knew that it was fast money. I would charge $300, $400, $500. I was rapping, I would try to maintain both of them, but I really started doing the beats because the beats could make quicker money than the rapping could. Everybody think they the tightest when they're rapping, but there's too many people. Everybody think they the tightest when they doing beats too, but everybody ain't producing. There's a difference between a beatmaker and a producer. I'm a producer. The rest of these cats, you can call them beatmakers. There are only a few real producers. A producer produces hits, and he makes records and he gets on Billboard. A beatmaker just does it I guess to do something with his time, to tell people, "Yo, this is what it sounds like. Yeah, I make beats".
What was the point when you felt like you were a producer and not a beatmaker? Back then, when I used to just do stuff in my house, I was just a beatmaker. When I used to do stuff in the city, I was a beatmaker. Once I took a trip to California with Three 6 Mafia and I told them to play their beats first, I was like "Ah, okay". When I played mine, and when they went crazy, I knew I was a producer then.
Did that propel your career? After I left California with Three 6 Mafia, I was doing my thing. It shot my buzz up, and now everybody was like, "Yo, he's with Three 6 Mafia." So I came back, I had met Waka, you know, Waka Flocka, I had met him in my city. Somebody had wanted a beat from me, know what I'm saying? I'm the hottest in the city after I came back with Three 6 Mafia, so everybody wants a beat. So somebody from Memphis was getting a verse from Waka. They told me to come up and do the beat and Waka met me. Waka was like, "Yo, I need some beats" after I played for him. So I came right back and did the beat for him. The name of the beat is "Still Standing". We shot the video. After he got shot, he came right back and shot the video on the tour bus with his teddy bear chain. So yeah, I did that beat. These pussies got me mad/ So I called Lo, I need a beat, I'm in the lab, he's talking about me on the song. So once he did that, everyone was like, Yo, he did the beat for Waka. Then after that Rick Ross reached out to me. I sent him some beats. He did his thing. He did, "Summer's Mine." Turned back around, they liked it so they did the "Bugatti Boyz." After the "Bugatti Boyz," his whole team was like, Hook us up, we're going to do something." I shot them some beats. Gunplay, he did "Rollin". Torch did "Reala State." Their whole team started messing with it. But "Rolling," that's what really did it for me. Once everybody heard "Rollin," everybody reached out to me, know what I'm saying?
I was looking on YouTube, and there are people who say, "This is a Lex Luger and Lil Lody type of beat." How would you describe the sound? He got that real trap sound. I got the trap sound plus a versatile sound but it's still trap. It keeps you crunk. I keep you crunk throughout the whole thing. Lex got that dopeboy trap swing that everybody wants. We both got our own lanes. We're sort of similar, but we both have our own ways.
What beat that you've made best exemplifies your style? I ain't gonna lie, I like "Ballin" and "Rollin" and "Bugatti Boyz," but "Ballin" is my one.
How come? Because the breakdown is crazy. It's exotic. It keeps you crunk! Not being racist, but I've seen white people dance to this song. They just go crazy when this song comes on.

RJ's Kosher Beef Jerky
I believe it's made by Jeff Rohatiner of Jeff's Gourmet Sausage fame. If so, I'm sure it's wonderful, like his sausages.
Where can I purchase this product?
re: jeterfan
re: Joe Berger
Well, wadya expect? The raw material cost is far more (4-5 times) the cost of nonkosher. Look... compare the cost of retail kosher meat. I saw beef ribs in Food for Less for $0.88/lb, $6.99 on sale in a kosher butcher. I saw brisket in Smart & Final for $1.59/lb, $6.99 on sale in a kosher butcher. Rib Roast $1.99/lb in a nonkosher place on sale, $10.99 on sale at a kosher butcher. And the markeup at the butcher is not as much as you'd think- I can get wholesale choice-graded brisket for $6.99/lb, only a bit less for ungraded. A kosher butcher doesn't make money on his meat, he makes it on the other items he sells. So even tough cuts that will be dried to make jerky will be quite expensive compared to nonkosher. Double the price for kosher jerky is a bargain.
re: jeterfan
I ordered some of the beef jerkys on line, and they went in a flash. My kids LOVED them. Good flavor, good jerky texture, moist. The unusual salmon jerky was very tasty. The turkey jerky was the least flavorful and the driest. They also sell sausages online. Anyone try them? Are they the same as Jeff's Gourmet?
Thanks, all, for your comments.
I've often stood at the checkout counter at Elite Cuisine, wondering if the jerky was worth the try but I've never gathered the courage to actually pick one up.
re: queenscook
Beef jerky is dried beef. Think of how much fresh, regular kosher beef costs per pound. Then remove all the water (the majority of the fresh weight) and imagine how much kosher jerky must cost per pound, even aside from other costs associated with making/processing it. It's a lot of money to spend if there's a chance the jerky isn't good.
re: GilaB
It's about $8 for about 2.5 ounces - nothing surprising there. There's no real decision-making inolved. If you want kosher jerky then buy it, if it's not for you, then don't. Sinai in Chicago used to make it years ago and they sold it by the pound in their outlet store (maybe $15 a pound, 10+ years ago).
Your choices today are similarly limited, buy it made, make it yourself (not all that difficult) or don't buy it at all.
If you don't mind a little elbow grease, Alton Brown in the food TV website has a wonderful recipe for beef jerky. That way it comes out cheaper, great taste and you can modify it to match your tastebuds. I made mine about a year ago and it was a big hit! What bother buying it... a foodies site is not only about places to eat... Please do not perpetuate that old joke: "What do Jewish couples like to make for dinner?... Reservations :) "
Holy Cow jerky was at Fairway in Paramus so it is probably at the other Fairway markets as well. $6.99 for the bag I think.
re: mommysmazal
re: mommysmazal
re: coppertop
I'm not a fan of dried meat, but OCKosher makes South African biltong (beef jerky) and will ship it to you. My omnivorous friends love it.
Jerky is a matter of personal taste. Some use sugar and are very sweet. I dislike that but, as I said, that is a matter of personal taste. Some are peppery, all the way to call-the-fire-department peppery. Cumin and other spices can be involved.
This means that if you don't find one you like, you may want to make your own. I haven't found a commercial one that I like, so I make my own.
I own a food dehydrator for the purpose. You can get one for about $50. A good butcher will slice the beef thin and lean. You can then spice it however you like it. If you buy the beef sliced, it takes only a few minutes to toss it with the spices that you like.
Most people like ti chewy. But if you make it quite dry you can confidently stick it in a suitcase and take a long trip to places where there is no Jewish food available. It is extremely lightweight. If you travel for business tuck some into your carry-on. Then, when there is fog in New Dehli, flight delays in Johannesburg, the French go on strike just when you land to change planes at Charles De Gaulle and the airline forgets your special meal, you will not starve.
I don't know about RJ; however OC Kosher in Tustin, Orange County has South African Beef Jerky call Biltong. It is very tasty. They also have two dried sausages: Boerwors and Cabanassi. In addition they have a full line of sausages they make in the store including Breakfast, Boerwors (not Dried), Chorizo, Lamb, Merguez (Moroccan), Polish, Bratwurst, Italian (Sweet and Hot), vienna sausages and Franks. I am sure I am missing some there. And if you don't see it, ask them, they can make it.
OC Kosher's sausage differs from Jeff's: Jeff actually cooks his sausage in the process of manufacturing where as except for the vienna sausages and franks, all of OC Kosher's sausages are stuffed but not cooked. I like this better especially when I BBQ.
Biltong, South African style jerky, is now being made in the U.S. by a couple of immigrants form South Africa.
Their company is called Joburg Kosher. And they offer if Mail order. The Jewish Week claims that it is koser for Pesach (and obviously could be eaten while traveling eruv Pesach, very useful) http://www.joburgkosher.com/
Has anyone tried it?
re: AdinaA
No but I've tried it from Griller's Pride (also owned by a S. African) and it's really good (and also Kosher for Pesach):
re: AdinaA
re: eagleeyeed
re: AdinaA
Its been a while since ive ordered from grillers so I'm not sure what their consistency is nowadays. On joburg k they list their ingredients. Definately not sweet like american jerky. They have the black pepper flavor which is my favorite, but for those who don't like too peppery they have a few different biltong flavors. The consistency for the travel pack biltong is more on the chewy side, but again good chewy not moisty chewy like most american beef jerkies. Their larger size which you can cut down to whatever flavor you like is thicker, but then again you can cut it to whatever consistency you like.
re: AdinaA
The Joburg Biltong is amazing. I have had the Black Pepper flavor and I have a bag of the Peri Peri flavor, just waiting for the right occasion. This stuff is nothing like the Holy Cow jerky I have had in the past; it is so much more moist. It really almost has the texture of cold roast beef, rather than the dry, leathery feel of the Holy Cow stuff. Don't get me wrong, I happen to like the dry one too, but I think Joburg is much better.
They also make a line of sausages that are great.

Palo Alto Medical Foundation officials, and two of its younger fans, received a $60,418 check as part of $2 million in grants the Safeway Foundation announced it will give back to community health programs and hospitals to launch grass-roots projects for the prevention and treatment of childhood obesity in the Bay Area and nationwide.
Safeway presented the check to the Palo Alto Medical Foundation at its Menlo Park store - at 525 El Camino Real. The grant will help fund an innovative online tool - "Way2GO" that educates pre-teens and their families about the importance of healthy choices when snacking and eating as well as maintaining a healthy BMI (Body Mass Index).
Schools may also use the tool.
The "Innovative Approaches to Preventing Childhood Obesity" grants are a part of an overall outreach and commitment to community health that has become synonymous with Safeway Inc., one of the largest supermarket companies in the U.S.
"Our commitment is to strengthen communities, create pioneering programs, expand services and implement new strategies to support the health of children and teens," said Larree Renda, Safeway Executive Vice President and Chair of the Safeway Foundation.

College of Ministry
Must be enrolled full-time at Northwest University, demonstrate outstanding potential in a chosen field, have a G.P.A. of 2.5, have high character standards and emotional stability expressed through performance, testimony, and prayer, be active in scholastic activities and extra-curricular church and/or missions activities, and demonstrate a Christian lifestyle showing constructive leadership in a Christian college environment. Upper-classmen are preferred, but may also be available for freshmen or transfers.
A. E.'s three children (Lois, Philip, Eunice) established this memorial scholarship for any student whom God has called to ministry. It is the prayer of us, his children, that this scholarship will help others to build on the foundation he, and others, have laid to lead souls to Christ and to "press toward the mark of the high calling of Jesus Christ."
A. E. (Anders Ephraim) Hokanson was born to Swedish immigrant parents in 1906 in Eaton, Colorado (just north of Greeley) where they had a large farm. He was the fifth of seven children who lived to adulthood. His parents' families had left Sweden for both economic and religious reasons. They had been members of the Swedish Free Church, but this was not the state church of Sweden. It refused to recognize those not of their faith. A. E.'s parents came into Pentecost before 1914 during the revivals that swept the U. S. and became members of the Assemblies of God fellowship in the Greeley area.
As a young adult, A. E. (usually called Ephraim), his brother, and his brother-in-law did evangelistic ministries in the Rocky Mountain District, including Wyoming, Nebraska, and Kansas. They helped establish many churches in Wyoming that are still active today. About 1930, Ephraim met Marguerite Jacobson at a camp meeting in Delta, Colorado. They corresponded for the next nine years and were married in October 1939. (Marguerite was also a minister who became ordained in 1945 and worked along side A. E. the rest of their lives.) In Colorado they started and nurtured churches in Cedaredge, Calhan, and Julesburg. In Julesburg, A. E. actually constructed the church building using lumber he got by tearing down old barns in the area. (This church building is still used by a Pentecostal group in Julesburg and looks much the same as when it was built.)
In 1951, they pastored in Dragerton, Utah, before relocating to the Northwest District. Pastorates in Washington State included Buckley, Okanogan, Brewster, and Bainbridge Island (where A. E. constructed the top part of the sanctuary). To supplement income both while pastoring and between churches, A. E. worked as a journeyman electrician, school bus driver, and raspberry/strawberry/apple picker.
His ministry was more than fifty years long and included evangelistic outreaches, church planting, and reconciliation. He played guitar and violin, and music was an important part of his ministry. He was also an excellent Bible study leader who, although he had not received formal Bible education, had a wealth of information that blessed his students because he was a true "student of the Word."
