Pulse of The People: The election is over
Free at last, free at last, the election is over. I voted for four candidates and God four times, all lost.
President Obama and his chicago machine ran a scorched earth campaign, based on divide and conquer. It worked. In the great agria of life, no one won, it only seems that way.
On the Democrat side we have people of color, women and committed lefties. On the other side (Republican Party is finished) there are the private sector people, social conservatives and people who remember what America use to be.
How does a president who divided U.S. bring "US" together. Start with devaluation of the dollar. Once that is accomplished people living in condos with investments and CDs will find their holdings as worthless as play money. The middle class will be reduced. The poor will still be poor but we will all be one in poverty. The poverty of the spirit will exceed material loss.
Other than making "US" all poor after poisoning the wells of reason, how does Obama bring "US" together.
I have no use for what was the Republican Party, they are worthless especially here in New York state. The party of "no" needs to be replaced with an entity that stands for something. Being all things to all people (except Christians) is the Democrats game.
My political wish list for the future: Karl Rove never be seen or heard from again. Charles Krauthammer start up his medical practice and give up journalism. Britt Hume and Bill O'Reilly are the only FOX people with credibility. The MSLSD, CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC (again) got it right. When bad is right we are in deep stuff not free stuff.
Bill O'Reilly said is best, "Free stuff won."

The Aspirations Longitudinal Study is a significant four-year research project that is the first of its kind to seek a comprehensive insight into the factors that shape the career and educational aspirations of students in the middle years of schooling.
The project has attracted more than $1 million in funding from the Australian Research Council and the NSW Department of Education (DEC). The research team, led by Professor Jenny Gore, will track children from state schools in three regions - the North Coast, Hunter/Central Coast and Northern Sydney - over the course of the study to investigate how their aspirations develop or change over time.
The information gathered by the researchers will assist the DEC and educators in developing programs to expand children's awareness of the range of opportunities available to them.
News in Brief - Last updated 6 May 2013
We're holding research induction workshops across the Far North Coast of NSW at schools which have recently joined the study. This year's research activities will soon commence in all participating schools across the state.

Julie, your bag is so wonderful! I know you are proud to carry that around.
If you ever have another project with lots of color changes, you might want to try carrying the unused yarns along the edge, never cutting them. Of course, that means you must keep all your yarns with you as you work on the project. Also, you have to maneuver the skeins occasionally to keep them from getting tangled. You could try it sometime with a small striped project, to see how you like it. You might decide that weaving in the loose ends is easier.

Yes. They used to be thought of as pyrolusite dendrites, but I recently read a report that most aren't pyrolusite after all.

Excellent tutorial Kay! Thanks for sharing. I always admire the fact that you don't use PS to such extend that its obviously editted !
Keep on sharing!
Nothing is more annoying to me than a color cast in the blue range all over my photos. It makes body parts look alien and everything else looks al gloomy and depressing. For me an auto white balance usually triggers a blue cast. Auto WB never worked for me, it just doesn't. No matter how expensive the camera I'm shooting with. So I prefer eyeballing the light and manually adjusting the Kelvin Temperature or using my ExpoDisk.
Now don't get me wrong, a blue color cast can actually add a certain mood to photos, but when it comes to food photography it never ever adds. Here's a really simple way to get rid of it.
Blue Cast Be Gone:
Here's my SOOC. I was baking a bread ring bread topped with caramelized onions with balsamic vinegar, cherry tomatoes, mozzarella and basil. See the blue cast among all the yumminess?
We simply have to add some warmth to counteract the coolness. Always do your editing on a separate layer, that way you can still adjust things later on not to mention play with the opacity of whatever it is you're tweaking.
If necessary flatten your image and press CTRL + J (CMD+J on a Mac) to duplicate and name your background. You can adjust the color balance via the layers palette and choose Color Balance from the menu, this will automatically add a new layer.
But old habits die hard, so I always press CTRL+B (CMD+B on the Mac) on my keyboard to get to the color balance box to pop up.
Make sure you're working on the Midtones and have the Preserve Luminosity toggle box checked. Now set the color levels to 18 and –20. Or use the slides. The further you drag the slide into the yellow, the warmer the tone will be. Be careful not to overdo it!
Instantly the blue will be replaced by a warm yellowish tone making the image look far more realistic.
Adjust the opacity of the layer to your liking and you're done.
You can make this even simpler by downloading this action that I've made for you. Keep in mind that it will flatten your layer, so make sure all your other editing is done first!
Excellent tutorial Kay! Thanks for sharing. I always admire the fact that you don't use PS to such extend that its obviously editted !
Keep on sharing!
You know how I love the photography and post-processing posts! Very useful information and thanks for the action!

"Absolutely the "America most inconvenient bank", Horrible experience"
Applied a loan with the bank and basically I am working with Robot during the process. The person who deal with my loan is not a professional and did not ask the right question. It is a totally wasting my time (20+ days) and money ($500+). Emails do not work well, Fax is the only way to communicate and many time even not work. I have to Fax the same documents again and again couple time and they still claim not received them. I have to print them out and bring them to the local branch, and they still send me auto-generated emails saying missing documentations. Unbelievable. I filed a complain with their Mortgage department, they do not even bother to return my email.
I applied new mortgage and several refinance before and all of those are very straightforward and never has a problem. I always have a person to work with and call will be picked or returned. My calls to TD always go to voice mail and the voice mail stated they will return my call within 6 business hours, but I never got any returned calls.
I do not understand why they even bother to have a such broken mortgage processing department. They should all be fired. How they can claim America's Most Convenient Bank???? It is truly a shame.
Stay away from them for any loan application. I won't recommend it for anyone.

"The worst banking experience of my life. Shane, the supervisor was disgusting "
I was treated horribly at this branch, they have the worst customer service I've ever encountered. The supervisor, Shane had the worst attitude problem! I've never been treated like this at a bank before. Keep your pens, I'm closing my account ASAP!!?

They have no backup plan if their system goes down and it happens a lot. Couldn't buy groceries or anything several times. I'm done with them.

I went onto my online account for td bank. This is something I used to do frequently. I haven't done it in a while nor had I looked at my statements. I started going over them with many unauthorized ach transactions as well as checks I never authorized. I immediately call customer service. She tells me to go to a branch to fill out stop payment forms. So I go to the nearest branch by my work on rt 66 in neptune nj. They wouldn't close my account. They wouldn't freeze my account. They are letting them still charge my account for things I never authorized. They also said They would send my Information to There fraud Department and never did. The customer service women told me the fraud department was closed. Come to find out that the fraud department is open till midnight .Today I had received a call about a loan I never applied for on my phone. I called customer service today to see if anything was done. The women tried to help me as best as possible and transferred me to the wrong department but she had given me the direct number to the fraud department. I called and he said he couldn't freeze my account and there was nothing he could do. It looks like I authorized the payments. Now I stopped my direct deposit and I am about 700 dollars in the hole. Thanks to these awesome people not helping me when I needed it. Td bank will never get another penny from me.

"Worse Than Awful"
I am a 30 year customer of TD Bank and their mortgage department has caused me to leave the bank all together.
I have applied to this bank three times - two mortgages and one home equity loan. The first time a year and a half ago I was approved. The next two experiences were disgusting. I have since qualified with another bank at a great rate. I have great credit score. They asked for information from me multiple times, sent out a rude, unqualified appraiser who appraised house too low and it took 4 weeks to get the appraisal, asked for information the second/third time that was different from the first time, called to tell me we were all set to close and wanted to set a date, Called back to say there was a problem with a release of a lien (this wasn't a problem the first time around),then called back to say I was not approved. Worst of all is that no one cares or takes any responsibility for the lack of service. Went to my local branch that I have dealt with for years - they agreed the mortgage dept was having issues but didn't do anything about it. Called the branch again when I had problems with my most recent issues. No return call for first two messages. Third call - no offer of help other than to give me a number to call. I could go on and on with all the ridiculous things they requested from me but I have spent enough time being aggravated with them. This is the first review I have ever written. DONT DO BUSINESS WITH THEM. Banks should earn your business and TD Bank is clearly not interested in doing that.

"Totally Disgusted with TD Bank"
On April 18, 2013. I went to a TD Bank Branch and applied for
Home Equity Loan for $60,000 for 15 yrs. Gave all information that was asked of me. I was contacted by a Loan Person about 3 days later, stating that I needed to supply 2 current pay stubs with ytd info, last 2 yrs W-2s and proof of pension for at least the next 3 yrs. All was done and faxed. About 1 week later, I received a call from said Load Person, needing more information. This to be last 2 months bank statements ( I use another bank) showing the deposits of pension and a letter composed by me stating why I made more income in 2011 then in 2012. What the hell was that for? I had the branch fax the information along with copies of direct deposits and my banks report of deposits for March and April (not the full bank statement which I feel is none of their business), copies of 1099 Rs and that stupid letter explaining the difference in pay between 2011 and 2012. I do factory work, make $18.19/hr, 5 days a week. TD did their part of property value, checking the insurance(s) and whatever they do. I received a letter stating that my Credit Score from Experian was just under 800. I had a 30 yr mortgage on my home, taken out in 10/1988. It was paid off 04/2012, 5 1/2 yrs ahead of time with no lates. I have 2 credit cards with no balances. All my bills have been paid on time. and I also have a Federal Adjusted Gross Income for the last 5 yrs over $40,000 each yr. Last Thursday (06/06) I received a message from the Loan Person again, stating that she had not received the last fax (dated 05/23) and that if she didn't have that information in hand on 06/10, she would have to decline the application. Well, TD was the one that faxed that info and she doesn't have it? Well who the hell does have it????? Personally, I don't want to deal with TD Bank any longer, she can decline the loan until the cows come home. Or SHOVE IT !! whichever happens first

My husband and i recently went in to td bank in poughkeepsie, ny for a mortgage. We showed the assistant manager our credit reports and asked if there was any way we would be able to get a mortgage. She told us that we were in luck because she had just taken a mortgage class and that there were alternatives for people with low credit scores. We were given a pre-qualification letter and told to come back when we have found a home. Well we did this, and everything that follows.... Home inspections.... Retained a lawyer put initial down payment down. As soon as it was sent to the underwriter it was denied even though we were assured that the underwriter would comeback to us with what we needed to do and that they could make it happen. Basically if your score is lower than a 620 there is no lender that will approve you even if you have 25% to put down and take care of outstanding debt. This manager could have told us this and saved us alot of money, time and disappointment. Our income is enough to pay the mortgage which is less than we have been paying in rent. I truly feel taken advantage of by td bank i believe they are saying they have mortgages for people just to get the non-refundable application fees that happen to hundreds of dollars in their pockets.

"Returned pending check for nfs after cash deposit made to cover transaction."
Checked account online last night and saw I needed to move money to cover rent check which was in pending status. Went in at 7:30 this morning and made cash deposit to cover check which was still showing pending. Kept checking account throughout the day and both check and cash deposit were showing in pending status until after 4:00 pm. Now check has been returned for nsf and account charged $35 fee. TD bank has done this to me repeatedly where my direct deposit and a charge have been presented on the same day and they refused the charge and charged me the $35 nsf fee. When I called to complain the rep and the supervisor both kept changing their stories about what status the check was in and the supervisor implied that I don't know how to read my on line account. Am closing account tomorrow. TD needs to be sent the message that consumers won't stand for their fraudulent practices.

"Don't trust my money with TD"
My wife and I have a joint account (saving). She also have a joint account with her father (chequing). Just the other day we went to withdraw $1500. After giving them all our IDs and instructing the teller to take it from my saving account, they took the money from the wrong account. We have to contact the branch, the manager apologize stating that the teller was new and on the job for just a week.
What makes me worry and no longer trust TD is that if I can withdraw from her father's account, what is stopping her father from withdrawing from my account?
I will be closing all my banking with TD next week.

Series: Excerpts from "Evolving: Evangelicals Reflect on Evolution"
We need to hear stories from others who have wrestled with evolution and Christian faith. What arguments made them change their views on science? How did they hold fast to their relationship with God? The essays in this series will eventually comprise a book, provisionally titled, "Evolving: Evangelicals Reflect on Evolution."
Series: What I Wish My Pastor Knew About... The Life of a Scientist
Andy Crouch examines the life of a scientist based on his experience of walking alongside his wife Catherine, an experimental physicist. That relationship has shown him that a life in science is a journey "into a set of virtues," of cultivating a specific character suited to the particular demands of research and investigation. Crouch's hope is to persuade pastors and others in the church to prayerfully support the scientific endeavor as a reflection of God's image in humankind as well as offers some suggestions for ministering to their needs.
Series: Searching for Motivated Belief
Over the next few months, with permission from Yale University Press, BioLogos will offer edited versions of chapters from John Polkinghorne's best books, Belief in God in an Age of Science and Theology in the Context of Science, in order to help readers delve more deeply into some of his most important ideas.
Does Resurrection Contradict Science?
So what then does Resurrection mean? For Benedict it represents a new dimension of reality breaking through into human experience. It is not a violation of the old; it is the manifestation of something new.
Meet Jimmy Lin, "Medical and Scientific Doxologist"
In our current culture, we're defined by our jobs. It's having a vocation. I wanted to shift away from that. I didn't want to be a doctor first and foremost, or a scientist, but one who praises God.
Series: A Faith Journey in a Medical Science Career
(Needs a summary)
Dissonance and Harmony
People hold clearly discordant points of view, and it would be dishonest to ignore the conflict. Yet some voices emphasize the dissonance without any note of harmony to put it in context. Too often, science and faith becomes a hostile battle of worldviews, sounding angry, dissonant chords even among fellow Christians. But civil, gracious dialogue is possible.
Awe in Science
If we can understand the experiences of the people who work every day in the lab, our dialogues concerning science and religion will be far more fruitful.
Creator of the Stars at Night
The God who created the cosmos is the God who came to us as a child in Bethlehem.
Series: Confronting Our Fears
In this series, U.S. Navy Commander Mike Beidler shares his own personal journey from accepting young-earth creationism to embracing evolutionary creationism.
Katharine Hayhoe: Evangelical Christian, Climate Scientist
As an Evangelical and a scientist, Katharine Hayhoe is already a member of a rare breed. As a climate change researcher who is also married to an evangelical Christian pastor, she is nearly one of a kind.
Growing in Faith
As he endeavored to learn more, David was intrigued by Francis Collins book The Language of God because Francis did not present evolution as a rival theory to Christian faith, but as something that described God's method of creation.
Did David Hume "Banish" Miracles?
"I flatter myself," Hume triumphantly proclaimed, "that I have discovered an argument . . . which, if just, will, with the wise and learned, be an everlasting check to all kinds of superstitious delusion, and consequently, will be useful as long as the world endures."
Series: Divine Action in the World
In this talk, Professor Plantinga addresses the fact that many contemporary thinkers—including many theologians—believe that God cannot perform miracles, providentially guide history, or interact in the lives of people, as these activities would be contrary to science. Plantinga, on the other hand, makes the case that this popular view is mistaken; excluding divine action in the world is not a central feature of natural science itself, but a philosophical or theological preference that has been added on to science (and can just as readily be removed). Plantinga concludes that it is completely logical to accept the miracles of the Bible and support contemporary science.
David Lack: Evolutionary Biologist and Devout Christian
Charles Darwin's personal struggles and ultimate rejection of Christianity are well documented, and people are eager to link his loss of faith to his evolutionary theory. David Lack, on the other hand, began his scientific career as an agnostic, but shortly after publishing his famous book on the evolution of "Darwin's finches", he converted to Christianity.
The Beauty of Being a Scientist and a Christian
I am a Christian. I believe that God is the ultimate reality and that the world, including me, was created by God. But this is not just an idle affirmation, a faith statement to be recited in church on Sunday.
Being Fruitful
Many people use the words "dominion" and "subdue" as "unconditional permission to use the world as they please." I came to realize, like many, that such an interpretation is contradicted by the rest of the Bible.
For the Love of the World: John Stott and His Passion for Creation
Some criticized John for his theistic evolutionary position and even his appreciation for Darwin. But Stott saw no contradiction between his own commitment to the authority of Scripture and his openness to God's use of evolution in His creative process.
Series: The God Who Acts: Robert John Russell on Divine Intervention and Divine Action
Does God need to supernaturally "intervene" in order to bring about the diversity of life that we observe today? Is that kind of action different from God's ordinary action? We begin our three-part series with Robert John Russell's description of how views of divine action have changed throughout history, excerpted from his book Cosmology: From Alpha to Omega. Part 2 addresses why "intervention" in the natural world is a problem philosophically, theologically, and scientifically; and Part 3 explains Russell's own theory of divine action in the natural world.
Scientists Tell Their Stories: Owen Gingerich
When it came time to go to graduate school, one of Owen Gingerich's science professors told him "If you feel a calling to go to astronomy, you should give it a try, because we shouldn't let atheists take over any particular field."

I started this thread because a lot of discussion has taken place on minutes threads' and I think that a thread should be started regarding the new R&IT (maybe even a new subforum to help organize this better).
Before we go any further, I am concerned because I do not feel that the club is ready to tear down the current layout.
The reason I say this is because the club hopes to have something to present during the 2011 train show, correct?
I believe I sent a draft of a tentative schedule to Drew or AJ I can't remember who it was. In any case, it outlined an ideal timeline, which I still feel would be a good starting point.
My schedule showed a final "outing" of the current layout (op session, public display, whatever) in the final weeks of the year that are known as post-Tiger Tracks weeks. That gives two weeks for an effective op session to take place, and whatever else.
After (or during) the christmas break, the layout would be torn down and then we could then start building the new layout. The reason I thought of this angle of attack is that we can have a "last hurrah" before we tear down teh current layout - and the public has ONE LAST opportunity to see the layout as it is. I don't know if it was made clear to the public that 2010 may be the last public viewing of the R&IT, and many people come back each year to see what has taken place on the layout, etc etc... In addition, we would have, basically, TEN+ months to make progress on the new layout, and have something running for the following TTTS.
This is probably the pessimist in me, but I don't know the skill level of our current membership in terms of wood working, track laying, electrical, and the list goes on. I also know how the club has worked over the years, and I think the club is asking for a heap of trouble, trying to get something to show for at the 2011 TTTS.
I think that we need to spend a LOT more time on track planning, because it took us 10+ years to get to where we are now. We started off small, and there are reasons behind the design and size of our current layout - our new-er members may not know these reasons, but one of them was that we shared the room with Techmillia (yearbook - not sure if I got the name right), so we built the layout to occupy exactly half of the room. After a while, Tech never actually formed or something like that, so we took over the rest of the room. I think that if we had the ENTIRE room to start with, our layout would be a lot different than it is now.
I would like to see more time and thought given into the whole process, and I think that most of the alumni would also like to see more thought and effort put into the new layout. It has been made clear what the membership would like - which is great. But I think the club is speeding too much, but that is also hurting because we don't know where we are going at this point. It's already been determined that iRIT is the last outing for the layout (btw, going back three paragraphs, does the public know this is the last outing?), but if we don't have a CONCRETE plan by then, we will be grasping at straws and rushing to get SOMETHING in place.
To sum it up, time management has never been on RITMRC's side, and yes, you can blame RIT's tough academic schedule, amongst other things, but on a project of this scope, I highly recommend that the e-board re-consider the decision to tear down the layout this summer. Doing so will only give you less than THREE months (thats not even a quarter, folks, when you factor in train show weekends (syracuse, batavia, etc), final exams, midterms, whatever) - which is why I suggested my already-mentioned schedule because that gives you TEN months (realistically, four whole months, factoring in summer, breaks, etc). That's a LOT of breathing room!
I would like to hear what the e-board's thoughts on this is, as well as the current membership and alumni's thoughts. I don't know if my schedule was brought forth to the layout planning committee, and I don't think I posted it on here. I would be MORE than glad to post an attachment for everyone to read - I would like to remind you that it is just a tentative schedule, but you can actually see where I was going with it.

(AP) - American shot put world champion C.J. Hunter , husband of Olympic gold medalist Marion Jones, tested positive for the banned substance nandrolone, international track officials said Monday. Istvan Gyulai, general secretary of the International Amateur Athletics Federation, track's governing body, confirmed Hunter flunked a drug test. He would not say when or where the test was conducted.
Arne Ljungqvist, the IAAF's anti-doping chief, said last week that USA Track & Field had failed to disclose 12-to-15 positive drug cases in the past two years.
De Merode said this isn't the first time the Americans have tried to cover up drug results. He said it happened at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, with at least five athletes.
``The athletes feel that the IAAF and USA Track & Field are covering up and have special rules for American athletes,'' said Johann Olav Koss, the Norwegian speedskating gold medalist who is now an IOC member.
The entire Romanian weightlifting team was banned from the Games after it was revealed that three weightlifters tested positive before the Olympics for banned substances. However, they were allowed back to compete after paying a $50,000 fine to the International Weightlifting Federation — an acceptable practice, according to federation rules.
The entire Bulgarian weightlifting team had also been kicked out of the Games after three tested positive for steroids. Two of them had won medals, and were stripped of them, and IWF officials insisted they would not be allowed back in the Games because they had tested positive in IOC tests after they competed. But one of them was reinstated yesterday by the Court of Arbitration for Sports and won a silver medal in the 105 kilogram category.
Maybe they should change the Olympic prize from a medal to a gold, silver and bronze syringe.
June, 2003: The United States Anti Doping Agency (USADA) is tipped off by a high ranking track and field coach who gives the USADA the names of athletes using a new undetectable steroid. The coach later sends the USADA a used syringe containing traces of the substance to back up his claim.
July/August, 2003: Professor Don Catlin, head of the International Olympic Committee (IOC)-accredited anti doping lab at UCLA, studies the new drug and determines it's a designer steroid, modified to escape detection in normal laboratory testing. Sensing a major conspiracy, the USADA come up with a test for the new drug and starts to retest 550 stored urine samples. Samples collected at the USA Outdoor Track and Field Championships in June are analyzed, with six samples eventually testing positive for the drug now dubbed THG, or tetrahydrogestrinone. The anonymous track and field coach fingers Bay Area Laboratory Co Operative, a nutritional supplements lab, and its founder Victor Conte, as the source of THG.
Oct. 20, 2003: Up to 40 Olympic and professional athletes, including Barry Bonds, boxer Shane Mosley and 100 metre world-record holder Tim Montgomery, are subpoenaed by a U.S. federal grand jury in San Francisco. The grand jury is investigating BALCO for tax evasion and laundering payments from athletes in exchange for prohibited performance-enhancing substances. American shot putter Kevin Toth becomes the first athlete publicly linked with THG. CBC Sports Online: Bonds asked to testify at BALCO inquiry
Oct. 21, 2003: The International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) - track and field's global governing body - announces it will retest samples from this summer's World Athletics Championships in Paris for THG. CBC Sports Online: IAAF will retest urine samples from track worlds
Oct. 22, 2003: British sprinter and European 100 metre champion Dwain Chambers becomes the first athlete to admit testing positive for THG. Craig Masback, the chief executive officer for USA Track and Field, confirms that four American athletes have tested positive for THG. CBC Sports Online: Chambers admits testing positive for THG
Nov. 6, 2003: Dwain Chambers' second urine sample confirms a positive test for THG. CBC Sports Online: Chambers' second test positive for THG
Nov. 12, 2003: The IAAF confirm that four American athletes' B samples taken in June at the U.S. national championships have tested positive for THG. CBC Sports Online: Four Americans fail second THG test
Jan. 13, 2004: The Associated Press reports that American national champion hammer thrower Melissa Price tested positive for THG a few weeks after the U.S. track and field championships in June. CBC Sports Online: U.S. hammer throw champ tests positive for THG
Jan. 17, 2004: The US Olympic Committee confirms that Regina Jacobs, the world indoor 1,500m record-holder, has tested positive for THG.
Feb. 24, 2004: Dwain Chambers receives a two-year ban after UK Athletics upholds his positive test for THG. CBC Sports Online: Dwain Chambers banned two years
May 17, 2004: The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency says its reviewing documents in the BALCO steroids case to determine whether there's enough evidence to sanction athletes without a positive drug test. Star sprinter Marion Jones threatens legal action if the USDA bars her from competing at the Athens Olympics. CBC Sports Online: Marion Jones threatens lawsuit if kept out of Olympics
May 26, 2004: Tim Montgomery's rise from unheralded sprinter to world's fastest man was the result of a BALCO-led plan dubbed "Project World Record," according to a San Jose Mercury News report. CBC Sports Online: BALCO built world's fastest man: report
USOC releases more drug test figures
Posted: Saturday September 30, 2000 12:00 AM
SYDNEY (CNNSI.com) - Posted: Saturday September 30, 2000 12:00 AM
According to USOC figures that were released Saturday, 33 American track and field athletes tested positive for banned drugs last year.

Actually; even when our lifters were juicing, we were being beaten (except for 1969 Bednarski & Dube) on the international stage. While part of the problem IS drugs; the root of the situation lies with the small talent pool that we have here. If we had 10,000 Juniors to develop, I sincerely believe that we could put an entire team in the A Session and a few in the top ten. If we had 25,000; we'd put the whole team in the top ten and a few in the top three.
The more bodies in the gym; the better the chances are of discovering another Kono or Schemansky (there, I've dated myself and I don't care).
The future of US lifting lies with recruiting every possible Junior, keeping them interested and motivated and leading them to the top.

"The chicken vs the egg."
A decade or so back Florida had 10,000 to 13,000 kids turn out for a high school c&j from around the state. And we got a couple of great lifters from this. The problem was as I remember it there was no one to work with them. Someone has to organize and someone has to at least teach the basics. In our case we need many organizers and many teachers. And if we want first class organizing and first class teaching then we need to generate first class organizers and first class teachers (ie coaches).

The first step toward getting more athletes is getting more coaches.
That's why we HAVE to get the athletes we do have coaching when they retire. We should push the coaching courses on athletes at schoolage and junior camps, or anything we can do to get more of our athletes coaching, including letting them take the coaching courses for free or at least heavily discounted.

The Shell land man has been calling and even stopped by. The kids have answered the phone (I'm outside much of the day); the guy always asks for my ex-husband. The kids say he isn't here, do you want to talk to my mom? The guy says no. He won't leave a message, but I'm sure it's Shell; no one else would ask for my ex at this number. When he stopped by I was out mowing behind the garage; my son talked to him, pointed me out, but again, he didn't want to talk to me..he'd wait to talk to 'Brian' (my kids are still annoyed about the divorce and won't tell people that dad lives in Philadelphia). Sigh. This game could go on for a while.
Brian and I are divorced, he doesn't live here, and I bought out his share of the farm (we are both still on the deed until I can refi...my ex says the gas rights are mine alone, and he'll sign whatever I need him to) so I'm the one the guy needs to talk to. I'm in no hurry; they are the ones that want to do their 3-D survey. I'm getting kind of insulted that he doesn't want to talk to me (being a single woman farmer has made me over-sensitive to men who don't want to do business with 'the little woman' and will wait to talk to the man...there are still a few people like that around, and I've stopped doing business with them). Should I contact them, or wait for this guy to decide he should talk to ME?
And maybe you can explain to this person who refuses to talk with you just what the situation is berween you and your EX. Write it in a note and have you kids hand it to him next time he appears.

Frankly, the original Skullcandy Hesh is one of my least-favorite headphones, with a massively bassy balance and dull treble. So when Dr. Tetsuro Oishi, Skullcandy's new director of electrical and acoustical engineering (and a recent recruit from Bose), told me he'd redesigned the Hesh as the new Hesh 2.0, I was hoping for improvement. I got it, big-time. The $59 Hesh 2.0 actually sounded really good: a bit bass-heavy, sure, but not at the expense of the mids or the treble. To emphasize Skullcandy's new research-heavy approach, Oishi gave me his pitch from behind some swanky audio measurement gear. "We've gone from four product development people to 20," he said, with the promise that we'd be seeing a significant upgrade in sound quality from future Skullcandy 'phones.

"He just pulled out in front of us," said Wallace. Wallace said she tried to get over but couldn't do so in time.
According to Phelp,s the man driving the truck was taken by Bryan County EMS to the hospital for possible head injuries. No other injuries occurred.

The city has yet to take any action on the two agreements that were proposed by the county nearly two weeks ago, though other cities in the county have already signed both agreements.
"The City of Villa Rica is currently reviewing what it's options are regarding the proposed agreement that has been tendered to it by Carroll County," City Attorney David Mecklin said. "The city has several options to consider, including one, to simply sign the agreement and accept it. The second option is to choose not to sign the agreement and notify the state that Villa Rica chooses to be an absent municipality from the agreement, and third the city is also reviewing whether or not there is any basis for which to challenge the proposed intergovernmental agreement that has been submitted to it by the county."
If the city chooses to go with one of the first two options, it would receive the 7.57 percent of the LOST disbursement offered to the city by the county. Under state law, the city must receive at least its population minimum in LOST proceeds, which is 7.57 percent.
Under the third option, Mecklin explained that the city is studying the legality of the agreement and whether or not it would withstand a legal challenge.
"Under that third option, it is important to the City of Villa Rica, as well as to all the other local governments, that there is not a legal deficiency with the agreement that would allow the agreement to be attacked either now or somewhere in the future by anyone," Mecklin said. "We want to be sure that whatever agreement is signed by all the local governments is something that will stand up because the distribution of the Local Option Sales Tax is too important to all the local governments to have it be attacked somewhere down the road because the agreement is legally insufficient."
One contention the city has had is that in addition to the master agreement that was offered with the proposed LOST disbursement with the municipalities were supplemental agreements with several municipalities that would provide additional funding out of Carroll County's LOST share. Villa Rica was not among those to receive a promise of additional funding beyond its 7.57 percent even though it is the second largest city in the county behind Carrollton.
Mayor J. Collins said he doesn't know what course of action the City Council will take, but he believes the city shouldn't sign the agreement and should take any legal action necessary to avoid the proposed agreement going into effect.
"I strongly discouraged the council from signing the agreement that was proposed to us," Collins said. "I think there are some additional negotiations that need to be done and some concessions that can be made on the part of others to make this agreement fair and equitable, understanding that Villa Rica is willing to give up money to help some of the smaller cities but we want to be treated fairly and we want to be looked at in the same light as all the cities are. Some of the calculations I've looked at and done myself, we're not receiving our fair share."
The city hasn't taken any action on the proposed service delivery agreement either, claiming that there had been no prior discussion or negotiations with the county on service delivery before the agreement was proposed.
"I think there are some issues the city wishes to discuss with the county to be sure that there is complete understanding on some points before they act on the service delivery agreement," Mecklin said.
Collins said it has been very surprising to him that other cities have not wanted to negotiate service delivery more heavily.
"Since service delivery was discussed 10 years ago, and I wasn't a part of that because I wasn't in office, case law has been established in Gwinnett County that allows special tax districts to be set up that gives cities credit for the services they provide to their residents that the county does not," Collins said. "I think that should be considered in Carroll County to avoid double taxation for services the city is providing. There are several services the cities provide that the county doesn't provide and those cities should be given credit for those services their providing.
"It bothers me that you don't have officials from other cities stepping up to the plate to take up for their respective residents and do what's fair and equitable. I would plead with other council members who represent citizens in other cities to step back and look at it because it's beneficial to everybody, not just city residents. You get what you pay for and you pay for what you get."

Unusual colors spiders and other insects serve to confuse predators as birds while decides to grab or not grab prey, the insects can escape on time. Likewise, insects are blend with the surroundings and it is sometimes impossible to see them . It is simply a struggle for survival.
funniest spider in Hawaii
Namely, the tiny spider size of several millimeters in the last part of the body has the unusual colors that schedule irresistibly reminds on the popular funny person or 'smiley'. Scientists believe that the unusual colors on back of small spiders are used for concealment from predators or reject them, because birds that are most common spiders exterminator, first see the prey and then decide to eat them.
Smaller animals such as frogs, lizards and many other species of amphibians and reptiles use this method concealment of enemy . Their color is so similar with color of their environment, that they can hardly be seen and thus become inaccessible for predators who lurk and want to eat them.

UPDATED Bloomfield Hills man dies in head-on collision on Opdyke Road in Pontiac
Crash investigators cleared the area of Opdyke Road at M-59 where a three-car accident claimed a Bloomfield Hills man's life Monday afternoon.
Sam Founteas, 75, was killed while driving southbound on Opdyke Road in his 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt when he was struck head-on by a northbound Ford Ranger pickup truck driven by a 51-year-old West Bloomfield resident, according to the Oakland County Sheriff's Office.
Founteas was trapped inside the vehicle and pronounced dead on the scene. His passenger, a 66-year-old Bloomfield Hills resident, was seriously injured and is listed in guarded condition at McLaren-Oakland hospital.
The driver of the truck was seriously injured as well, but is in stable condition, according to the Sheriff's Office.
Witnesses said the driver of the truck changed lanes in attempt to pass through the intersection before losing control and crossing into oncoming traffic and hitting Founteas' car head-on. Founteas' vehicle was pushed into another southbound vehicle, a 2002 Cadillac Seville driven by a 21-year-old Casco Township resident, who was seriously injured and taken to St. Joseph Mercy Hospital in Pontiac and is in stable condition.
Alcohol is believed to have been a factor in the crash, according to the Sheriff's Office. All occupants in the crash were wearing seat belts at the time of the accident.
The Sheriff's Office Crash Reconstruction Unit continues to investigate the crash. The findings are expected to be presented to the county Prosecutor's Office in the coming weeks.
Both directions of Opdyke Road were closed for nearly three hours.

Major roadwork planned for Red Deer County
Summer road construction season in Red Deer County is fixing to be a busy one if the weather cooperates.
�We have quite a bit of road work we want to do this summer,� said Marty Campbell, director of operations for the county. He said 2012 has �one of the biggest budgets� for roadwork and maintenance ever planned in Red Deer County.
Campbell said the road project budget for the year, which includes the construction costs and other items like paving and chipsealing, is about $20 million.
Campbell said major projects planned for the year include two bridge replacement projects and some major work on Rge. Rd. 273 and Twp. Rd. 362 (Old Pole Road).
The bridge replacement projects affect the bridge over Medicine River on Rge. Rd. 30 and the bridge over Raven River on Rge. Rd. 42.
Campbell said the bridge budget is about $7 million but funding will be paid for by Alberta Transportation.
Road construction will affect Old Pole Road from Highway 2A to Highway 791.
�It�s rebuilding the road and grading it,� Campbell said, adding the plan is to have the road base-paved later in the summer. Campbell said Alberta Transportation is funding the paving of the road.
�Not only does this allow for good access to QEII and 2A, it is a major east-west route within the county,� said Mayor Jim Wood in his release about the road plan.
The other major road construction project Campbell cited was Rge. Rd. 273 between Highway 42 and Twp. Rd. 372, which links Highway 791 with 49 Avenue in the City of Red Deer.
Campbell said the road is to be rebuilt and prepped for base paving.
June is the planned start date of the big projects, Campbell said, and it�s hoped smaller road repairs can start as soon as the rain stops.
�We have a huge maintenance program,� Campbell said, noting there is also a bridge repair and maintenance program and a drainage program in place.
�It�s all over the county this year,� Campbell said.
Construction will continue into the fall.
�We go right to freeze-up,� Campbell said.
The public works maintenance and capital budgets total about $40 million, Campbell said.
The road bans necessary to allow the construction went into place in mid-March, Campbell said, and won�t be lifted until the provincial bans are ready to go.
More road projects are currently out to tender and could be added to the slate of projects, Campbell said.
In the release on the county road plan, Wood said council has approved a 10-year road strategy and a five-year work plan has been prepared by county staff.

Flood Museum Temporarily Closed
By: Danielle Krout
Updated: February 5, 2013
City firefighters noticed a drop in water pressure and notified museum officials. None of the artifacts were damage but the museum is closed until the water is cleaned up.
"We are thankful it was caught in time," said Shelley Johansson, Johnstown Area Heritage Association. "This could have been a lot worse that what it was, we're just working to make sure everything is safe and dry to re-open."
Johansson credits the city fire department for saving the building from further water damage.
Notifications on when the museum reopens will be posted online.

Hey guys. I ran into a Surskit and Roselia once on Pokemon Emerald, although I was unable to catch them because I had just recently started the game at that time. Now that i've finished the game.. i've finished it a while ago but that's not the point, on the Pokemon Emerald Hoenn pokedex Surskit and Roselia come up as unknown locations yet I ran into them. Can someone please explain how this kind of thing happens?
Yes it is possible. Often Pokemon are obtainable in different ways (e.g. gifts or fossils) so they don't show up on the in-game map. In your case if you were walking around in grass they must have appeared due to a swarm.

Haha, I'm so with you on that on the Ash note.
For the most part, I think Misty would be the one planning the whole wedding and Ash would just have to go along with her. My cousin Steve is the same way. He's married now and he pretty much goes along with what his wife wants.

We're told to be polite, earnest, and respectful. However, as we've learned from Reality TV, face slaps and unfiltered emotions are often more engaging than polite interaction. Micro-blogger Chad Johnson attracted a lot of praise for the influence he earned with raw unfiltered messaging; Twitalyzer in 2011 called Chad Ochocinco the most influential American on Twitter.
Recently, we've seen an epic "brawl" on Twitter centered around Nassim Nicholas Taleb and his book, Antifragile-Things That Gain From Disorder. Dr Taleb has attracted a lot of attention with his challenging, brash, and often bombastic tweets. His persona is more Ochocinco then Emily Post. Even more interesting is that his topic is Macroeconomics and Econometrics rather than cheating spouses, baller theatrics, and celebutantes. He is making economics interesting.

I bought some kimchi a few weeks ago, ate half the jar, and then forgot about it. I found it in my fridge yesterday and tried it. It tastes the same, but there isn't a date stamped on the jar. Does it go bad or should it be fine since it's fermented/pickled?
A great resource for how long foods can be kept is Stilltasty.com. According to them, commercially bottled pickles (and kimchee would fall into this category) can be kept after opening for one year in the refrigerator. |
Most Koreans won't eat kimchi if a) the veggies have become significantly mushy b) the juices taste 'sparkly', it's hard to describe this flavor exactly, but when you taste it, you'll know what I mean. A year seems like a long time for opened kimchi to me, but I would just use my tastebuds to assess the above. |
Kimchi is rotten cabbage. It's already bad :) Seriously though, if it isn't moldy, it's probably fine. If you have the kind in the jar that has a carbonated taste, and it's still carbonated, it's fine. |
In every Korean kitchen I have encountered, everyone has been extremely particular in that clean utensils should be used when extracting the kimchee from the jar, being very careful not to contaminate the kimchee. I have been told on many occasions that contaminating the kimchee can shorten the shelf life of the kimchee and taint the flavor. My family will begin eating the raw kimchee about a week after it has been bought fresh from the grocery, after one month (if it is still around) I use whats left, cooking it with various dishes. The more salt that is added to the kimchee and the cooler the temp it is stored at, the slower it will ferment. Seems to me everybody has a different 'sweet spot' when it comes to the duration of fermentation they feel produces the best flavor. But I have never heard anybody storing kimchee for a year, and believe traditionally it was kept in Korea from one growing season to the next, in clay pots, underground. I have never heard of someone getting sick from eating old kimchee, but it definitely turns, and that in my mind constitutes as "going bad" |
"Bad" is a relative term for fermented pickles -- the whole point of the things is that they are a bit spoiled. It should get more sour/pricklier/funkier as time goes on and still be fine, but use your eyes and nose: if it gets stinky in some new and exciting way or looks strange, I'd avoid. |
I made Napa Cabbage Kimchi about 2 and a half months ago and had two containers in the back of the fridge. One was half full in a plastic honey container and a full one. I was worried that it had spoiled by this time but when I tried it, it was delicious. I am not Korean but I have enjoyed really sour kimchi for a long time. I'm so stoked that I have another 1 liter ice cream pail of the stuff. |
I don't think it can go bad, but the flavour profile does change over time with homemade kimchi. Usually once it's past a certain point my Korean friend will use it for flavouring soups and stews rather than eating it straight. So it's just up to your personal preference. |

Cleveland OH
Old Photos and Panoramics of Cleveland, OH
One of our newest collections, we've gathered several photos of Cleveland's historical areas. Various shots of skyscrapers, old hotels, monuments, and railways.
About Cleveland
The city's situation on the lakefront helped it flourish as a center for heavy industry. As a halfway point for iron ore from Minnesota being shipped across the Great Lakes, as well as coal and being carried by rail from the south, Cleveland. Standard Oil was founded in Cleveland in 1870 by John D. Rockefeller, although the headquarters moved to New York City in 1885. Cleveland emerged in the early 20th Century as a leading American manufacturing center, home to numerous major steel producers, and automobile manufacturers.
By 1920, the city's economic prosperity had been catalytic in Cleveland's becoming the nation's fifth largest city. The city also served as a center for the national progressive movement, headed locally by populist Mayor Tom L. Johnson. Many prominent Clevelanders from this era are buried in the historic Lake View Cemetery, including President James A. Garfield, and John D. Rockefeller.

BOYS BASKETBALL PREVIEW: Five players to watch in local gyms this season
(Listed alphabetically)
Shawn Alston, The Haverford School, G: The sophomore has the size (6-foot-4) and the bloodlines — his father, Levan Alston, played at Temple — to help the Fords contend for an Inter-Ac championship. He got his season started off in style with a game-high 20 points in Haverford School's 72-41 thumping of Shipley.
"He's really matured," Fords coach Henry Fairfax said. "He's got a pretty good pedigree, too, and Penn is already really heavy on him. Penn State and Villanova are already interested, too."
Christian Irons, Interboro, G: He blossomed as a sophomore, averaging 18.3 points per game, good enough for second in the county behind Penn Wood All-Delco Malcolm Richardson. He helped lead Interboro to a district berth and the expectations only go up for the junior, whom coach Jeff Webb called, "the best all-around athlete that's come through Interboro in the past 10 years."
Lofty praise for a junior, but Irons just might be it. He'll have to shoulder increased point guard responsibilities, but should do so smoothly.
Rondae Jefferson, Chester, G/F: The 6-8 do-it-all senior point forward is a 5-star recruit who signed with Pac-12 power Arizona in November, and was the Daily Times and Associated Press state Player of the Year a season ago when he led the Clippers to their first undefeated season and a second straight state title. Averaged 12.1 points per game to go with 9.2 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 2.7 blocked shots as a junior, numbers that should rise.
"I told him I need 20 (points), 10 (rebounds) and five (assists per game) from him this year," Chester coach Larry Yarbray said.
The scary part? That's completely feasible for Jefferson. He's got a point guard's ballhandling and passing skills with the size that enables him to match up with centers and power forwards.
Darius Robinson, Chester, G: The latest in a long line of accomplished athletes from the Robinson family, Robinson earned second-team All-Delco and second-team All-State honors a season ago as he helped lead the Clippers to their eighth state title. He canned the second-most 3-pointers in Delco a year ago with 59 and he'll be asked yet again to stretch defenses. The 6-1 senior guard, who averaged 11.8 points per game last year, is garnering Division I interest from UNC-Greensboro, New Hampshire and Drexel.
Yosef Yacob, Archbishop Carroll, G: A savvy senior leader and All-Delco selection as a junior, he's a big reason why Carroll likes its chances to stay near the top of the Catholic League despite getting hit fairly hard by graduation. Yacob, who averaged 12.4 points per game last season, has committed to Binghamton and continues a long lineage of game-breaking Patriots guards under coach Paul Romanczuk. Don't be surprised to see his 4.1 assists per game average skyrocket.

The Reupholstered Loveseat
We sent the loveseat off to be reupholstered to make sure we were going to like the outcome before sending the sofa as well. We found this fabric at Barn Fabric Center and picked it up during one of their sales for 4.99 yd.
It turned out great! He finished finished it in a day! We had him put us back on his list so we can get the sofa done next. It'll probably be sometime in January before he gets to us again. He's the best one around so I can wait.
Whaddya think?
Oct 27, 2012, 11:17 PM
The loveseat matched the sofa which was probably upholstered 30 or 40 years ago. A refresh was well overdue.
Oct 28, 2012, 01:15 AM
Beautiful...love how pattern was matched on seat and front of love seat. You have a real gem, well worth the wait to do sofa.

lady of shallot
It is beautiful! I adore tufting (Not cleaning inside the little grooves though! LOL)
Your love seat is very elegant and stylish and charming and its choice shows you and Donnie love and maintain your furnishings.
I admire anyone who can do such difficult work. Here's to all the craftsmen and women in our lives!
Oct 28, 2012, 11:21 AM
Yeah, one day! Couldn't believe it. I had gone to Nashville for the birth of my first grandchild the day he picked it up. When I talked to Donnie the next day, he said the guy had called first thing that morning and said it was ready to deliver. I knew he was fast, but dang! He only works one person's stuff at a time and will redo everything you want done whether it is one piece or 50. Then he goes on the the next person. You don't end up with empty rooms for months at a time which is very nice. He even put the hooks that keep the cushion from moving around back on. I love this guy!
I couldn't find him for a while and since he has no answering machine, I had another place do the cushions for the chairs in the dining room. They're ok but lack the attention to detail that Joe has. The pattern on the seats don't line up with the pattern on the boxed areas. I had seen some of other things they had done at customer's houses and wasn't impressed. When someone said Joe had passed away, I gave them a try. Fortunately, Joe has NOT passed away-first cause hes a great guy, second because he's a great craftsman, so he'll continue to get all my business as well as any other I can send his way. Waiting for him is never a problem.
It's kind of funny that once I saw it, I wasn't sure I liked it as much as I thought I would. I had reservations from the beginning because it was so different than what I'm used to seeing and was a total mood change. Now that I've been around it a few days, I think it's fab! Once we get the other pieces done, we may need to reassess the wall color and accessories depending on how the overall "reads". I'm excited about it. I've only been waiting to redo this stuff for over a decade and now it's finally in motion.
One of my favorite things is that the tufting is puffy again. I'm delighted!
Oct 28, 2012, 07:47 PM
Love it! I'd be working hard to get everything that needs to be reupholstered before the fellow retires. He sounds like a gem and to do it in one day with all the tufting is unbelievable. What a work ethic he has.

We used the weekend offer which is good value. Room 307 had a good view over øregårdsparken. The hotel has Townhouse restaurants and tis ideal located for that beaches north of Copenhagen. The service is ok for a Danish hotel. The breakfast very standard but would still recommend the hotel for what it is a practical and efficient hotel.
