"Mom, we've got a problem," four words I didn't want to hear my teenage son say when he called one day after school. That problem turned out to be an altercation with a dump truck. Thankfully, no one was hurt, but my car is now in the shop awaiting $6,000 in repairs due to a sideswipe. Just nine days later, he called again and this time his opening statement was even more unsettling, "Mom, it's really bad." He was struck head-one by another vehicle that slid into his lane on a slick road. Again, no injuries, but dad's car -- a total loss -- was towed from the scene.
Teens, as I've said repeatedly, have the highest crash rates of any age group on the road. And those first six months of independent driving (he's been licensed since mid-August) are particularly dangerous. That's because the novice behind the wheel doesn't have the skills or experience needed to recognize a hazard and take corrective action. Researchers point to driver error as the most prevalent reason for teen crashes, with recognition (i.e., inadequate surveillance, distraction) and decisions errors (i.e., following too closely, driving too fast for conditions) topping the list.
While I'm inclined to encase my son in bubble-wrap and lock him in his room, that's not going solve the inexperience problem. The only way he's going to become a better driver is to drive. So three days later he was back on the road. I was holding my breath until he got to his destination, but upon receipt of his usual pithy text "here," I exhaled.
My son and I have discussed both crashes numerous times since those fateful days before and after Christmas (talk about the ultimate gift, no one was injured) not only as we filled out the insurance paperwork, but to help him learn from the experience. I don't want my teen to beat himself up about what happened (he is covering the deductible for the first incident and was shaken up by both), but for a new driver, a crash is the ultimate teachable moment.
Looking back on the first incident, he clearly misjudged the distance and speed of the oncoming vehicle (physics brought to life). "I honestly thought I had enough time to make the turn," he said, "but I didn't know how fast he was going or how close he really was." He had also thought about turning right rather than left at the intersection (Four Bridges and Bartley Road adjacent to West Morris Central High School, the site, I've since learned, of numerous motor vehicle incidents) and going the long way home that day, but opted for the latter. I asked him if he'd thought about staying at school a bit longer to allow the traffic to clear (there are no roads more dangerous than those adjacent to a high school at dismissal time). "I didn't mom, cause I hardly ever come home right after school."
What's the take away? Use extreme caution when pulling out into an intersection, look for large gaps in traffic and be mindful of that message on the side-view mirror that reads, "vehicles are closer than they appear." And if you're not sure, don't go. I've also stressed to him that if cross-traffic is heavy, opt to go right and take the long way home or wait it out. It may seem like a waste of time, but if it means you'll get home safely, it's worth it.
The second crash was more difficult to control since the other driver failed to maintain her lane and crossed into my son's, something that could happen to anyone regardless of experience. As he recounted what happened, I was glad to hear that he was looking ahead (scanning the road is critical for safe driving, but not something new drivers do very well) and saw her sliding. "I slowed down and stopped," he said, "but I really didn't have anywhere to go. It was either steer away from her into this big tree or sit tight." He choose the latter and learned how cars respond in frontal crashes.
And that's another important take-away from both of these incidents. He's heard me preach over and again the importance of always buckling up and buying cars with the latest safety features. Both he and his passenger (the only one he's allowed to transport) were wearing their seat belts (during both crashes), ensuring that they were in the right position when the airbags deployed during the head-on collision. Additionally, there were two impacts during this second crash -- the oncoming vehicle hit the one driven by my son and then spun and hit him again on the driver-side passenger door. The car he was driving absorbed the forces of the crash ensuring that the passenger compartment remained intact protecting the occupants.
So parents, if you're thinking about buying your novice driver a car, opt for all the safety features you can find including front and side-impact airbags and traction stability control. If you're considering buying a used car, check out the vehicle's safety ratings via the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety or NHTSA websites. If your teen shares the family cars, put him or her in the one that's the safest.
In addition to being mindful of vehicle selection, stay involved. I've written this numerous times, teens who have parents who give them enough structured support to allow them to make good choices, but don't compromise on safety, are less likely to crash. I know what you're thinking, if that's the case, why did my son crash not once, but twice in less than two weeks? (Believe me, I've beaten myself up about what I could have done to prevent this from happening.) The first was without a doubt the result of inexperience and the second nothing more than timing (if he had only left 5 minutes earlier or later). As an involved or what safety researchers refer to as an authoritative parent, I can take solace in the fact that he wasn't speeding or on his cell phone and both he and his passenger were buckled up -- all behaviors reflective of teens who have parents who set and monitor safety ground rules.
At the same time, I can't lose sight of the fact that while he's gaining experience every time he gets behind the wheel, he still has a long way to go. It can take three to five years for a novice to be exposed to the myriad of driving situations he'll encounter on the road. Building the muscle-memory needed to help a driver react quickly and appropriately in a variety of situations takes time. So that's why I'll continue to look for opportunities to drive with my teen every chance I get. As
one parent advocate who lost his teenage son in a car crash aptly noted, a license doesn't a safe or experienced teen driver make, "it is up to [parents] to be an extra filter in the process..."

This and the countless number of kids killed driving and killed by kids behind the wheel proves that our system is flawed. I see cars full of teenagers driving around after dark and its clear the probationary drivers license isnt being enforced.
Also, we should have stricter penalties in the first year of driving. If a first year driver is caught texting or talking on the cell phone while driving they should lose their license, period. You combine these first year drivers with lack of attention by using an electronic device and its a recipe for disaster. I was hit by some teenage girl texting and if it was 50 ft further down the road I would have been in the water and probably dead.
Also, we should really consider doing away with this 17 year old drivers license. Rather make 18 year olds have the probationary license and then if they have no incidents on their 19th birthday they then get a full license. If they have incidents then they should have to wait another year. I say keeping cars full of teenagers driving around at night solves more than one problem.
Everyone is crying for gun control when 20 kids are killed, but tens of thousands of kids are killed (and innocent by standards) killed yearly and no one cares. Seems our priorities are pretty messed up.

I see countless idiots on the road who are texting, talking on the cells, eating, even reading the paper... and they are not 'kids'. There are many instances of people killed by drunk or high drivers who are long removed from their teenage years. Just this week a man in his 30's was sentenced for killing a cop on Rte 80. He was so high on a mix of drugs, that he has no memory of the incident.
You are incorrect to think that only teenagers are a problem, and they should therefore have further restrictions put on them. During winter storms, there are always a large number of fender benders. Just because the author chooses to detail her teenage son's accidents doesn't mean that only teenagers have accidents.
7:36 am on Wednesday, January 9, 2013
Hookerman you are either a teenager or completely blind to the stats. Teenagers killed and teeenagers killing others are off the charts.
Yes, adults drive and text too, but newbie drivers already are at risk being inexperienced, adding a another distraction just makes it that much worse and the stats back me up.
12:04 pm on Wednesday, January 9, 2013
First, I'm many decades removed from my teen years, but I do have two teens who are far better drivers than many adults I see on the road. Second, statistics show that the drivers who are most at risk fall into two age groups; 16-25 and those over 65. So Michael, since you want to remove teen driving privileges, I assume you also wish to do the same for older people. Are you willing to turn in your driver's license at the age of 65 simply because stats show that older drivers pose a greater risk???

I Didn't turn 18 until I was in College and working full time. Should I have not been allowed to drive? NJ is one of the most strict states in the nation when it comes to teenage driving. Let me teach and parent my kids we don't need any additional laws.

I think everyone should have stickers on the back of the car indicating age,sex and creed of the driver. Lets just get rid of this whole "democracy thing". Someone needs to teach their children to be better drivers and stop with this whole "nanny state" idea. Its time for parents to take thier due responsibility for their kids and stop passing their responsibilities off to police and other strangers. Spend time with your kids, watch your kids, and take care of your kids. If you don't have the time, then don't have the kids. Modern gimmicks in cars are no replacement for good drivers and cannot be relied on. Systems fail, theres no replacement for a good driver or cars would drive themselves. Consider public transportation for you're child if he is a danger to the general public. Innocent people shouldnt pay for parents that don't take responsibility for bad driving habits.

You know what, "clyde," you're right. We should also institute mandatory yearly driving tests for senior citizens like yourself, "clyde." I would hate to think that you're out on the roads behind the wheel of a car. After all, we wouldn't want to lose your wit and wisdom to a car accident... (that's sarcasm, by the way. Wouldn't want you to think I really meant that. Please, by all means, take what you think passes for wit and wisdom and go anywhere else on the internet.)

Personally, I am not quite sure this issue is 100% "teenage" drivers. There seems to be no consequence for bad drivers--period. I commute each day, 46 to 280 and 280 to 46, every single day. i am shocked and amazed how many drivers run red lights,yapping on cell phones, cut people off, turn right from the far left lanes, speeding and cutting in and out of traffic and often, there is a police unit right there, who does nothing. Monday night, while travelling on 46 west, a large pickup truck flew into traffic from a one of the store exits, without stopping, cut off multiple cars who had to lock up their brakes, the the driver took off into the left lane and SPED down the highway, do I need to tell you that a town police officer was three cars away? How he did not HEAR the brakes and horns, I'll never know, but this wreckless speeder, got away with it. Its the wrecklessness that causes crashes and the inexperience drivers that are unsure of how to avoid them.

The Saratogian (saratogian.com), Serving the Saratoga Springs, N.Y. region
Saturday, December 8, 2012
By PAUL POST
SOUTH GLENS FALLS — South Glens Falls Rotarians recently honored those who make the community a better place.
Police, fire, emergency services, school and public works officials, along with Moreau Community Center leaders, were recognized during a Public Service Awards program recently.
More than two dozen Rotarians and their guests, including Assembly member Teresa Sayward, R-Willsboro, and South Glens Falls Mayor Keith Donohue, were on hand for the event, held at Dango's Dugout Nov. 15.
"Our volunteers do a tremendous amount of work," Sayward said. We wouldn't be able to serve our communities or get people to the hospital without them."
For example, the 67-member Moreau EMS Squad responds to 2,000 calls per year. "The squad has become a gem in our community," Rotarian Dave Rosebrook said. "We can count on them to be where they're needed."
Rotarian Joe Patricke presented an award to members of the South Glens Falls Fire Department. "They're always there for us," he said. "You see them in the middle of the night when it's below zero, doing what they have to do to save people and property."
Likewise, town highway department crews were recognized for keeping Moreau's 89 miles of town highway in good shape, especially during snowstorms and at all hours of the day and night.
Representatives of nine different agencies accepted awards. They are:
ä Moreau Community Center — Director Donna Nichols, Joseph Orlow
ä Moreau EMS — Lois Crerand, Karen Kopf
ä Saratoga County Sheriff's Department — Sgt. Daniel Morley, Deputy Courtney Salaway
ä South Glens Falls School District — Superintendent Michael Patton
ä South Glens Falls Public Works Department — Superintendent Brian Abare, Rick Daley
ä South Glens Falls Fire Department — Jonathan Pease, Timothy Pease
ä South Glens Falls Police Department — Sgt. Todd Moulthrop, Patrolman Jason Martin
ä Moreau Highway Department — Superintendent Paul Joseph, Assistant Superintendent Mike Montgomery.
New York State Police were also honored, but representatives were unable to attend. However, Rotary Director Kim Romano gave a brief history of the state police, which was established in 1917, and spoke of how the agency has evolved and grown through the years.
"Without our law enforcement officials we would be living in a very different state," Rotary President Jaime Thompson said.

Staff Report
A Lee County man was shot earlier this week. According to police, Caleb Lawson, 19, of Pennington Gap, was allegedly shot by 56-year-old Eugene Underwood, also of Pennington Gap.
According to the press release, Underwood lured Lawson and his girlfriend, Santessa Webb, to a wooded area under the disguise of helping him dig a hole in the ground, which he told the couple was a deer trap. As it turned out, it was allegedly a grave for Lawson.
The release said Webb stated when Lawson asked if the hole was deep enough, Underwood told him to dig deeper in one corner. When Lawson got back into the hole, Underwood pulled a gun from his pocket and fired twice at Lawson, according to the release.
The release states one shot passed through his left arm and the other lodged in his right shoulder. When Lawson was shot he was able to roll out of the hole and over a bank into the brush and flee, according to the release.
Underwood then allegedly told Webb he shot Lawson for "ratting him out to people." She then found an opportunity to run, according to the release. The release states that both made their way back to telephones to call for help.
Lee County Sheriff Gary Parsons reported that his office received a call from a resident of the Occonita community, who turned out to be Lawson. According to the release, Lawson told Parsons he had been shot.
According to the release, a few minutes later Webb called and stated she had witnessed the shooting. She then identified Underwood and stated he left the scene in a small silver pick up, police said.
Parsons said Captain Taylor Scott of the sheriff's office was responding to the call when he passed the vehicle just a short distance from Lee County High School. Parsons said Scott turned on the vehicle, but did not engage his blue lights, hoping the vehicle would travel farther from the school before attempting to stop it.
The release stated that instead the vehicle pulled into the upper school paring lot about 300 yards from the school. Scott then instinctively traveled passed the truck and blocked it from going any closer to the building, the release said.
Scott then left his vehicle, drew his weapon and demanded that Underwood show his hands, according to the release. The release stated Underwood lifted a .32 caliber handgun to his own head and fired, dying instantly at the scene.
Parsons said Underwood was a sex offender, having been convicted of rape and was only released from prison in 2005 after pulling a 20-year sentence. After the initial shooting he called a family member and told them what had happened and that he was not going back to prison, police said.
Parsons said because his deputy was present when Underwood shot himself, he asked the Virginia State Police to handle the case.
Lawson was treated at Lee Regional Medical Center and released.

I'm planning a ride from Birmingham to London on the Grand Union Canal (UK), which will be quite bumpy for most of the 145 mile distance. I have a front suspension bike and can't afford a new full suspension bike. Do suspension seat posts actually work? If so, I'll get one of them. Can anyone recommend a good model?
You might find a suspension seatpost to be comfortable, but a suspension seatpost is not a substitute for a full suspension bike. The purpose of a suspension seatpost is purely comfort (though as mikes mentions, not everyone agrees that they achieve this goal), where as the purpose of a full suspension bike is first and foremost control. Suspension on the wheels helps them stay on the ground over rough terrain, which a suspension seatpost will not do. Any extra "comfort" is simply a side benefit. If you're looking to smooth out your ride, the #1 thing you can do is lower your tire pressure. You will lose some efficiency when the ground is smooth, but if you're already riding 145 on a bike with a front suspension, I suspect efficiency isn't your top concern to begin with. |
It seems everyone I know has a love/hate relationship with them.In other words liked it or didn't.My main complaint was while trying to maintain a consistant cadence I could feel the seat height changing.It seemed to interfere with my pedal stroke.Mine was an inexpensive telescope type,with no adjustments.My reccomendation would be stay away from the lowend models.Also I would try it in similar conditions prior to your trip. |
I've heard very good things about the cane creek thudbuster suspension seatposts. I'm probably going to invest in one for some longer gravel road rides I'm planning for the summer. They come in both the LT (long travel) and ST (short travel). I think the ST model would be a good addition to a touring or cross bike used for a longer bumpy ride to take some of the harshness out of the bumps. I'm basing my opinion mostly on the review at http://www.thecyclistsite.com/reviews/2009/11/27/cane-creek-thudbuster-st-seat-post-out-of-the-box.html |
I have ridden the Cane Creek Thudbuster post on my hardtail mountain bike, my beach cruiser, and my city bike for well over a decade with superb results. Saddles stays equidistant from the pedals regardless of compression amount. |
Ive found use seatposts to be better than thudbuster st, absorbs smaller shocks and larger one way better and i preffer the action ie straight up and down rather than back as well. |

County Commissioners held a special meeting Tuesday and during the meeting, they discussed the ongoing issues with the wall construction of the county jail project.
According to commissioners, Lonestar Masonry, who was hired to repair the work not completed by the original contractors, has not fulfilled its duties either.
Commissioner Monty Montgomery said that there is still a hole on one wall that needs repaired as well as other issues remaining.
The wall he spoke of was used to do construction in the wall but was meant to be filled afterward. The group also did not have a superintendent on site to give instruction.
Per contract agreement, the construction manager cannot instruct the masonry group, so the presence of a superintendent is necessary.
The commissioners plan to meet with both the bonding company and the masonry group to discuss how to handle the situation.
Also discussed in Tuesday's meeting was an emergency backup exercise for the county officials. Bryan County Emergency Manager James Dalton presented the idea to the commissioners.
Dalton said the exercise would be to set up a plan of continuity of local government and services should a disaster strike.
Dalton said he had done this with Durant City officials. In that exercise, a natural gas explosion was simulated in which a waterline also broke.
The exercise helped determine things such as how people would go to court, buy graves and find city officials.
The exercise determines where officials would relocate, how they would continue services and even how they would appoint new officials should one die during a disaster.
Commissioners agreed to the exercise. The exercise will be scheduled for a day that all officials will be present but will not be revealed to officials so that the most natural responses may occur.

Jodie Marsh wins bodybuilding competition: "I'm so happy I did the UK proud!" Posted by Anna Lewis on 13 June 2012 11:41 Comments Jodie Marsh has always been open and honest about having suicidal thoughts soon after appearing on Celebrity Big Brother in 2006. So we were glad to hear her say she'd found something to turn her life around - bodybuilding. And now she's gone and won her first ever competition! This week she won gold in the Women's Fit Body category at the finals of the International Natural Bodybuilding Federation (INBF) Natural North America Bodybuilding Championships, less than a year since taking up bodybuilding. Jodie took to Twitter to give her 250,000 followers the good news. "I sincerely apologise if I get boring today but all day I am going to be saying.. I'm the INBF CHAMPION!! Haha. Never been happier :-)." As well as her excited tweet, Jodie also bombarded Twitter with pictures from the championships - including a snap of her trophy - which were held in Washington D.C. Her triumph comes nine months after she came fifth in UK competition, Ladies Physique category at the Natural Physique Association (NPA). Jodie had only been training for eight weeks at the time. Thank you After receiving a number of positive messages on Twitter, Jodie showed her appreciation. "Thank you so so so much everyone. Can't believe how many amazing and lovely comments!! I'm so happy I did the UK proud! #INBFChampion." She also used the social networking site to remind us all about her new reality show, Jodie Marsh: Brawn In The USA. "Did I mention that I'm the #INBFChampion? Hahahaha #buzzing #brawnintheUSA Dmax June 20th x x x x I'm a champ waaaahoooooo." Getting ready It's pretty hard work being a bodybuilding champ, you know… Before the competition, Jodie spent 14 weeks eating egg whites, protein shakes, brown rice, green vegetables and not a single thing else. She was also working out for four hours a day. Like most bodybuilders, 24 hours before taking to the stage, she dehydrated herself so her skin would shrink to make her muscles appear more defined. Don't try this at home, kids… But do try this – take a look at Jodie's snaps from the competition: Gallery "Here's the plaque on my trophy :-) first place baby. Smashing it in the USA. To see my win, watch #brawnintheUSA" "Here's me on stage just before my win #INBFChampion x x x" "Say hello to the new INBF champion :-)" "Me on stage #INBFChampion my bikini is from @harlequinbikini" "Just before my big win on stage. Watch #brawnintheUSA June 20th on dmax to see me win. my bikini from @harlequinbikini" "During my stage routine #brawnintheUSA dmax June 20th #ripped haha x x x" "My stage routine was choreographed by @TwistandPulse watch #brawnintheUSA June 20th to see it.

But the incident – which Pollock insists was due to his error – has made him even more passionate about protecting sharks and their underwater habitats.
In fact, many Conservancy staff members have had similar reactions after experiencing close encounters with nature. Read our stories about "almost dangerous" experiences – and then share your own!

Herschel Sims, Former AHS Eagle, Dismissed From OSU Football Team
By: BCH.com/ NewsOK.com
Updated: June 1, 2012
As BCH.com reported on Wednesday, Former Abilene High Eagle Herschel Sims has been released from the Oklahoma State Football team.
Here is the copy published by the NewsOK.com regarding the matter:
STILLWATER -- Oklahoma State running back Herschel Sims has been dismissed from the program for violation of team rules, coach Mike Gundy announced Friday.
Sims' high school coach told the Tulsa World that the dismissal stems from a miscommunication about money between Sims and teammate Jeremiah Tshimanga.
According to an incident report filed with the OSU police department last month, Tshimanga says a fellow OSU student accessed his account at Stillwater National Bank without his permission and made two transactions worth $700.
Tshimanga, a freshman linebacker, told police on May 18 that the bank showed him two pictures of the transactions -- one for $500 and another for $200 -- that were made on April 27. Tshimanga identified the person making the transactions.
The suspect's name was redacted from the incident report, but is listed as a 20-year-old black male, standing 5-feet-10 inches tall and weighing 190 pounds. The suspect's birth date listed on the report is Sept. 17, 1991, which matches Sims' birth date on his profile on the OSU athletic website.
Tshimanga told police he confronted the suspect, who confessed to taking the money out of the account.
"Based on what Herschel told me, there has been some miscommunication between him and his teammate," Abilene High School coach Steve Warren told the Tulsa World. "At the same time, he indicated to me that he made a mistake in the way he handled that situation, the way he went about it with his teammate and things like that.

UNIFEM GAATW Handbook for Legal Actors and Service Providers
Oct 25 2010

The consultation, attended by members of law enforcement, prosecutors, judges, social workers and non-government organization representatives concluded that many barriers prevented victims of trafficking from seeking justice. As a result most victims of the crime of trafficking were not receiving a remedy for the wrongs that had been done to them and the number of traffickers prosecuted was low. One challenge raised by participants was the continuing confusion among legal actors about the applicable laws and procedures for trafficking cases. There was also a lack of clarity about rights of victims, and the roles of the various players in preserving and promoting them. The consultation resolved that a handbook about the applicable laws and procedures could considerably improve access to justice in trafficking cases.More information about human trafficking on the website of UNHCHR.

Coral Sympathetic Tuning?
Like (0)
Sounds like C-D-E-F-G-A-B-C to me.
I guess they are tuned in half tone steps, but I am not sure. There are 13 additional resonance strings on the vinnie bell coral sitar. That would make sense but it is only an assumption. I started a support ticket and got no definitive answer yet.
Stay in the mix and in the know.

"I'd say, 'Go out on the trampoline!' Ian Hockley says. "And he would always say, 'are you coming, Daddy?'"
Together, they would vault up on the trampoline and bounce, sometimes joined by Dylan's brother, Jake, who is two years older.
"If I didn't go, Dylan wouldn't go," Ian Hockley remembers. "He just wanted to have so much fun with me."
Just down the street lived Adam Lanza, 20. Authorities said Lanza opened fire inside Sandy Hook Elementary before taking his own life. They said he killed his mother, Nancy, before the school shooting.
Asked whether they knew the Lanzas, Nicole Hockley stiffened and said no.
But they say the pain has made it impossible to even drive past the Lanza home. So they are moving elsewhere in the community.
"You can't drive up your driveway every day and see the house of a person who took your son's life and who brought so much pain to so many people," Nicole said. "We are leaving that house. We will stay in Newtown, but that's just one thing too much. I can't do that every day."
And they have trouble answering Jake's questions, such as why? And will this happen again?
Nicole says these are not things an 8-year-old should have to worry about.
But Ian says it's Jake's difficult questions that give them the will to get involved -- to try to make something positive come from the tragedy.

About WELA
How WELA has strived to become a leading industry standard in it's industry.
Getting to know us, an incredible opportunity
Driven by motivated industry professionals to give you the best opportunity on the market
The Wela plan is very low risk with extremely high rewards. It is open to everyone no matter what age, financial status, education, or experience, and it promotes solid ethical values that people are hungry for, today more than ever. It provides access to international markets, significant tax advantages , and a proven path for developing residual income .
Wela has re-engineered the home-based business model by accentuating the best of what this industry has to offer and eliminating the downsides. We've created a "franchised-like" system with an innovative revenue sharing plan that is well balanced for the beginner and part-timer as well as those with experience. Wela's plan promotes teamwork and creates synergy within the organization which maximizes the potential for our members to prosper.
Instead of spending money on overhead like a large, elegant office building and high paid corporate teams, Wela rewards our members, called Revenue Sharing Partners, with a generous Compensation Plan that pays 65% for helping us grow the company. The plan is designed for our members to profit quickly while building long-term financial security.
Each week about 175,000 new people in America, and over 300,000 around the world are joining a home-based business. Yet with less than 1% of the world's population involved so far, it has only tapped a tiny fraction of its growth potential.
The genius of Wela's model is that it makes residual income a very real possibility for absolutely anyone regardless of age, background, education, or skills. It's the purest form of equality through free enterprise, and the timing is perfect for you to stake your claim in this entrepreneurial explosion by becoming a Wela Revenue Sharing Partner!

• Four core values guide our decisions and actions.
• Dignity-Accepting of all person's as created in the image of God.
• Service-Responding with compassion to the needs of others.

Back Cardboard piece not sturdy
By LA
from Minneapolis
About Me Quality Oriented
Comments about Quill Brand� Easel Pad Flip Chart; 50 Sheets per Pad, Plain Style:
We wanted to put these on an easel but the back cardboard piece was entirely too flimsy to hold the weight of the pad. Also the pages did not re-stick to the wall (there was no stick-um on it). Since it was too flimsy I was going to hang with the holes, but the holes were spaced out weirdly so it would not hang up on our conference room board. Spend more money and buy the 3M version.

"I've never seen it like this," said Lt. Rebecca Butler. "We've never had the shelves empty," she said in her 12 years in Griffin.
Butler said there is "a little baby food and some gallon cans of corn and green beans," which she said are used in the shelter but not given out.
The pantry relies on donations, usually the canned food drives around Christmas and Thanksgiving to keep the shelves stocked through the year. "It's an amazing amount the kids bring in," said Social Services Director Jenny Reed, but donations were down and demand has been up.
"It fell short this year —under 10,000 cans,"Reed said.
"These tough economic timeshave effected everything," Butler said. "We have had more people who never asked for help before come in for the first time, at wits end."
Butler said they have been able to refer people to other agencies for help including Five Loaves Two Fishes.
With the changes in food stamps, Reed said, there are some items they get in for the SNAP program that can only go to families with children in the household, age 16 and younger. "We have to account for every single item or we will get cut off," she said pointing to a dozen boxes of macaroni and cheese.
"We need help, big help," Butler said. "People are hungry. It breaks my heart we can't give food out."
Usually Butler said, when someone comes in, they leave with three bags of food, enough for three to four meals. What they do get in, goes out as quickly as it comes in.
"I have to keep apologizing," Reed said, "we don't have goods to give."
The Salvation Army accepts food donations year round at the store on North Expressway and at service center on Meriwether Street. "As the Lord blesses, we can bless," Butler said.
For those needing assistance for Christmas with food and toys for the holiday season, the Salvation Army will be accepting applications during the week of Oct. 22-26, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., in person only at 725 Meriwether St. Please do not bring children to the interview.
Applicants must provide picture identification, Social Security card for everyone in the household, age verification for children (birth certificate or shot verification), proof of all income and proof of expenses (rent, mortgage, utilities, all bills in the household).
For more information call 770-412-6561.

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
I luv this idea! Please keep us posted on where you take this....the possibilities are endless. I could definately see myself sitting down and reading a blog about zines and reviews....to learn about what inspires other zinesters would be great!
I think this is a great idea! You could read about the zine on your blog and then quickly link to a distro (since so many are online) and pick it up!
I read zine review blogs, and would read others, providing they review the sort of zines I'm interested in.
I review zines on my blog too, but I've decided to only review a handful a month rather than every zine I read. That way I don't feel pressured to review everything and it doesn't take up too much time, but I still have the chance to shout out about those zines I have strong opinions on. I know I probably won't get the readership of a blog that only reviews zines and reviews a lot, but I enjoy it and that's what counts!

FTC approves modified final order on Western Digital purchase
The Federal Trade Commission approved and issued a modified final decision and order settling charges that Western Digital�s (WDC) proposed acquisition of rival Hitachi Global Technologies would have been anticompetitive in the market for hard disk drives used in desktop PCs. The proposed order settling the FTC�s charges, first announced on March 5, 2012, required Western Digital to sell assets used to manufacture and sell desktop computer hard disk drives to Toshiba (TOSBF) to resolve the agency�s competition concerns. The FTC has approved several modifications to the proposed order to incorporate adjustments that Western Digital and Toshiba Corporation, the buyer of the divested assets, made in the transaction documents. The final order provides for the additional time Western Digital required to complete the divestiture in order to obtain the necessary approvals from other relevant competition authorities and also includes revised production and asset transfer schedules, and extended time in which Western Digital will have access to certain employees. The FTC has also approved changes to the Divestiture Agreement and Contract Manufacturing Agreement to reflect the changes to the remedial agreements made by Western Digital and Toshiba Corporation.

Stable capactiy, rising demand to drive up memory prices, FT says
After years of price competition and industry consolidation, analysts do not expect any new memory chip capacity to be introduced this year, which coupled with rising demand driven by smartphone growth is set to feed through into prices, Financial Times said. Samsung Electronics (SSNLF), SK Hynix and Micron (MU) now hold more than 90% of the D-Ram market and almost 100% of the Nand market is divided between those three and Intel (INTC), Toshiba (TOSBF) and SanDisk (SNDK), the report noted, citing analysts at Bernstein.

Host nation Samoa has named a strong squad for the 2011 Oceania Sevens starting today in Apia.
Eight of the 12 who won the gold medal in the XIV Pacific Games in Nouméa (in early September) back up for the IRB-funded tournament at their home ground, Apia Park.
Captain Uale Mai, the world's most-capped sevens player, says they are ready to perform for their supporters.
"It's a special moment playing on our home ground in front of all our people though we will need to work hard tomorrow as we haven't played together since the Pacific Games," said the 33-year old who has played almost 80 international tournaments for Samoa. "It's a chance for our people to come and support our team today and tomorrow."
Loose forward Ofisa Treviranus and winger David Lemi have returned from RWC 2011 duty, along with Alatasi Tupou, who has 28 caps on the HSBC Sevens World Series, and 18-year old debutant Talaga Alafipo, and Mai says they all bring a lot to the squad.
"It's good to have David and Ofisa back into our team and we have been working together on our fitness which is important for the tournament. While it's a blow to lose Reupena Levasa and Mikaele Pesamino (to injury) the new players get an opportunity before the HSBC Sevens World Series."
Mai singled out Australia (playing with a squad of only 11), Fiji and Tonga as the main threats for the tournament which is forecast to be played in tropical conditions. Rain and thundery storms are expected with a high of 29 degrees.
"Australia and Fiji have had good preparation from last week's Marist Sevens although this week is another level," said Mai. "The weather will be a factor and the home conditions should suit us. We are looking for a win, to build our combinations and to get some good competition before the HSBC Sevens World Series."
Samoa won the 2008 Oceania Championships at home in 2008, thrashing Tonga 52-0 in the final, and again in 2009 in Papéete beating Tonga 31-14. Australia is the defending champion with their 34-12 win over Samoa in Darwin last October.

Sixers Scoop: Jason Richardson takes wrong step with ankle sprain
NEW YORK — Everyone else in the 76ers' locker room was zippering a jacket. Jason Richardson was fiddling with a walking boot.
Richardson sustained a left ankle sprain less than two minutes into Sunday's game, a 100-84 loss to the New York Knicks. The starting shooting guard said X-rays on the ankle came back negative and he expects to miss "a game or two, if that."
"I'm the type of guy who hates sitting down," Richardson said. "I'll tell you this much — that was the least I've played" in an NBA game.
Richardson exited the game at the 10:13 mark of the first quarter. He rolled his ankle while sticking the landing on a layup attempt. He missed the bucket, but he couldn't miss a photographer's foot.
"I stepped on the camera guy," Richardson said, rolling his eyes in frustration.
Richardson said the ankle, which he's injured a couple times in his career, "ballooned up a lot" in the minutes following the injury. He said it's under control and that there's no structural damage.
Without Richardson, the Sixers were missing an integral part of their offense. A taller guard who is strong on the defensive glass, he's key to springing their fastbreak game. The Sixers managed only two points in fastbreak opportunities.
"That was big, especially with J-Rich," said Jrue Holiday. "He really spaces the floor, attacks, rebounds. Him going down, I think everybody has to pick it up. Him going down early, too, I think it hurt."
Evan Turner, in ho-hum fashion, posted a double-double. The Sixers' third-year small forward coupled 11 points with 10 rebounds, following up a 2-for-7 shooting effort in their opener with a 2-for-9 showing.
Turner didn't make a basket until the 7:51 mark of the third quarter, with a baseline jumper ending his bucket-free streak. Sixers coach Doug Collins said one decent outing could do wonders for Turner. Continued...
"I think (Turner) just needs a breakout game where the ball goes in and he's in a good rhythm," Collins said. "Right now, he's not in a great rhythm and our team is not."
NOTES: Philly native Rasheed Wallace entered for the Knicks with less than two minutes to play. A teammate of Sixers assistant coach Aaron McKie at Simon Gratz High, Wallace received raucous applause when he backed down the Sixers' Nick Young to knock down a right-handed baby hook in the lane. … The Sixers' Royal Ivey made his season debut in unceremonious fashion, netting nine minutes. … Kwame Brown, who Collins had declared "ready to play," did not get off the bench. The veteran center has not played since an Oct. 13 exhibition.

AMD to Gain From Graphics-Processor Growth in Notebooks
NEW YORK (Trefis) -- While AMD(AMD) lives in the shadow of Intel(INTC) in the PC microprocessor market, it competes neck-and-neck with Nvidia(NVDA) in the discrete graphics processing unit space.
AMD has a market share of close to 50% in the business of supplying discrete GPUs for notebooks. Going forward, the company will not only benefit from the growth in global notebook shipments, but also from an increase in discrete GPU penetration in notebooks. We estimate that the discrete notebook GPU business constitutes about 12% to AMD's stock. Let's take a look below at why this penetration will increase.
See our complete analysis for AMD.
Discrete GPUs in notebooks (sold as a percent of notebook shipments) increased from 25% in 2005 to 33% in 2011. We expect this to steadily increase to close to 46% by the end of our forecast period, close to the figure witnessed for desktop GPUs.
As the economy improves, gaming enthusiasts will have better ability to afford GPUs. Emerging markets also represent a tremendous opportunity to expand the GPU sales. The middle class income is growing and with wider availability of PCs and higher income, we expect more customers to purchase GPU loaded notebooks. China, especially, has a high GPU-attach rate and its GPU market is growing faster than the U.S. We expect Nvidia and AMD to get competitive on pricing or introduce more features on same pricing in order to boost their GPU sales.

Right fair enough, I didn't knew if there had been a case like that before so I was just curious if it just was an argument that had nothing on it.
Liberal media doesn't report it? Oh don't go there man.. I really doubt that if there had been someone who have killed the shooter at the school I think that the liberal news would report it aswell.

Gov. Maggie Hassan called on New Hampshire lawmakers Thursday to compete with Massachusetts by legalizing one high-end casino and included licensing fees in her two-year budget to pressure them to act.
"The question is: Will we allow Massachusetts to take revenue from New Hampshire's residents to fund its needs, or will we develop our own plan that will allow us to address social costs and invest in our priorities?" she said in her budget address.
Hassan included $80 million in her budget from gambling licensing fees that lawmakers would have to replace with other revenue or spending cuts if they failed to approve gambling. The House has never passed casino legislation. The Senate has a bill to legalize video slots at one casino, but dedicates the money to highway improvements, higher education and development in the North Country
Hassan only included money in her budget for operating expenses at the Transportation Department and left it to lawmakers to settle how to pay for the Interstate 93 expansion and other badly needed road improvements she said are needed. Besides the Senate proposal to use gambling revenues, a House bill would instead raise the state's gas tax and vehicle registration fees to pay for highway and bridges.
Hassan said that "as it stands, we barely have enough to do the very minimum: patching roads and bridges together, plowing our highways, and keeping state troopers on the road."
"We must develop strategies for a long-term solution, for both operations and road construction, and we must do it together, working toward a consensus solution," she said.
Hassan proposes spending $11.1 billion from all revenue sources -- including federal, highway and state taxes -- or 10 percent more than the current $10.1 billion, two-year budget. The state tax portion of the total budget is $2.8 billion, or 7 percent higher than the current $2.6 billion budget. That is a $184 million increase over two years.
Hassan also included $38 million in her public works budget for a new women's prison, beefed up spending on mental health, restored aid to the community colleges and gave the university system 90 percent of the aid it had been getting. She proposes adding money for charter schools, but giving the state education board more authority over their placement and the type of school.
She also would expand Medicaid in the budget under the Obama administration's federal health care overhaul, citing the long-term benefits to the state's poor. She would partially restore funding for a program to help troubled kids who aren't delinquent.
"For too long, our corrections system has woefully neglected women. Like our men's prison, our new women's prison must offer facilities that can provide the programs that help individuals safely move back into society when they have served their sentences," she said.

@Aulbath: Thanks for the suggestion. I signed up there and posted stuff. Also thanks for your e-mail, I'll answer it shortly.
@Ronin[XiC]: Sure, he's a happy wolf!
@Hammer49: Many thanks for the comment and suggeting B&C.
Holy cow, it's highest time for an update in here!
First off, sorry for the lack of updates lately. In the past weeks I wrote many e-mails, worked on a project I can't post yet but plan to post during the holidays which took a lot of time to do, Finished a few older things of the Sci-Fi kind and so on. There's sad news as well - the Chaos Dwarfs commission guy isn't reporting back. Last thing I heard was something like "perfect, I'll post the miniatures tomorrow" and that's it. Nothing since then. I still hope that this thing is happening and I hope the guy's fine. Anyway, more time for other stuff then! Like a bunch of Dwarf miniatures I'm currently doing for Magabotato, a German tabletop video show (here's their youtube channel)
First off, new pictures of the Wolf Lord:
The "ROLF"-looking runes on the wolf's armour didn't really please a lot of people so those were changed. Plus, I added some more detailling to the wolf's armour and redid the base a little bit. Next thing on my list: add snow.
I'm also currently doing four more Rhinos/Razorbacks so the Long Fangs and the Wolf Guard don't have to walk around on their paws:

So you've a bunch of numbers ready to show the world (or at your weekly management meetings). The numbers are nice, but you also want to hit upper management over the head (subtly, of course) with how awesome those numbers are at a glance.
Your first thought? "Bar charts."
After fiddling in Excel for half an hour, you come up with a bar chart that looks moderately pleasing. But the bar chart looks a little, you know, crowded. (So many things in there!)
I introduce you to conditional formatting. Specifically, the data bar conditional format. Consider this:
Yes, I spent an inordinate amount of time matching the green colour in the bar chart to the preset green colour option Excel gave for data bars… Oh gradient fills…
Even after fiddling with chart options, I still find the chart very "busy". The data bar version is "cleaner".
Remember that the goal of a chart is to present the data without stylistic elements overpowering the actual data. Depending on your situation, the (conditionally formatted) data bar might be a better choice.
