Pertinent Research Findings |
Thomas-Hawkins, C., Flynn, L., & Clarke, S.P. (2008). Relationships between registered nurse staffing, processes of nursing care, and nurse-reported patient outcomes in chronic hemodialysis units. Nephrology Nursing Journal, 35(2), 123-130. | Study findings revealed that high patient–to-RN ratios and increased numbers of tasks left undone by RNs were associated with an increased likelihood of frequent occurrences of dialysis hypotension, skipped dialysis treatments, shortened dialysis treatments, and patient complaints in hemodialysis units. These findings indicate that federal, state, and dialysis organization policies must foster staffing structures and processes of care in dialysis units that effectively utilize the invaluable skills and services of professional, registered nurses. |
Gardner, J.K., Thomas-Hawkins, C., Fogg, L., Latham, C. (2007). The relationships between nurses' perceptions of the hemodialysis unit work environment and nurse turnover, patient satisfaction, and hospitalizations. Nephrology Nursing Journal, 34(3), 271-281. | Significant correlations were found among nurses' perceptions of the dialysis work environment, nurses' intention to leave their jobs, nurse turnover rates, and patient hospitalizations. Study findings suggest that nurses' perceptions of the dialysis work environment are important for nurse and patient outcomes in dialysis settings. |
Eisenhauer, L., Hurley, A., & Dolan, N. (2007). Nurses' reported thinking during medication administration. Journal of Nursing Scholarship, 39(1), 82-87. | In this study focused on thought processes nurses use during medication administration to prevent errors, to prevent harm, or promote therapeutic responses, the authors conclusion is nurses' thinking processes extend beyond rules and procedures and are based on patient data and interdisciplinary professional knowledge to provide safe and effective care. |
Horn, S., Buerhaus, P., Bergstrom, N., & Smout, R. (2005). RN staffing time and outcomes of long-stay nursing home residences. American Journal of Nursing, 105,58-70. |
More RN direct care time per resident per day was associated with fewer pressure ulcers, hospitalizations, and urinary tract infections (UTIs); less weight loss, catheterization, and deterioration in the ability to perform activities of daily living (ADLs); and greater use of oral standard medical nutritional supplements. |
Needleman, J., Buerhaus, P., Mattke, S., et al. (2001). Nurse-staffing levels and patient outcomes in hospitals. Final report for Health Resources and Services Administration. Contract No. 230-99-0021. Boston, MA: Harvard School of Public Health. |
In hospitals with high RN staffing, medical patients had lower rates of five adverse patient outcomes (UTIs, pneumonia, shock, upper gastrointestinal bleeding, and longer hospital stay) than patients in hospitals with low RN staffing. Major surgery patients in hospitals with high RN staffing had lower rates of two patient outcomes (UTIs and failure to rescue). |
Mapes, D. (2005). Nurses' impact on the choice and longevity of vascular access.Nephrology Nursing Journal, 32(6), 670-674. |
Data from the Dialysis Outcomes and Practice Patterns Study (DOPPS) reveal the potential impact that a nurse advocate can have on encouraging placement of AV fistulae. These data suggest that the preference of medical professionals in general - and of nephrology nurses in particular -influence the choice of vascular access. |
Thomas-Hawkins, C., Denno, M., Currier, H., & Wick G. (2003). Staff nurses' perceptions of the work environment in freestanding hemodialysis facilities. Nephrology Nursing Journal, 30(2),169-178. |
Sixty percent of nurses felt that there were not enough RNs in the dialysis unit to provide quality patient care; 55% felt that there were not enough staff to get the work done or enough time to discuss patient problems with other nurses; and 60% felt that there were adequate support services to allow them to spend time with their patients. |

Adding half an hour of RN staffing per patient day could reduce pneumonia in surgical patients by over 4%. This study covered 589 hospitals in 10 states during 1993. |
Kovner, C., Mezey, M., & Harrington, C. (2000). Research priorities for staffing, case mix, and quality of care in U.S. nursing homes.Journal of Nursing Scholarship, 32(1), 77-80. |
Fewer RN hours per patient day were significantly correlated with a higher incidence of pneumonia. The study examined administrative data on post-surgical patients in 11 states during 1990-96. |
Kovner, C., Jones, C., Zhan, C., et al. (2002). Nurse staffing and post surgical adverse outcomes: Analysis of administrative data from a sample of U.S. hospitals, 1990-1996. Health Services Research, 37(3), 611-629. |
An increase of 1 hour worked by RNs per patient day was associated with an 8.9% decrease in the odds of a surgical patient's contracting pneumonia This study also found that a 10% increase in RN proportion was associated with a 9.5% decrease in the odds of pneumonia. |
Aiken, L.H., Clarke, S.P., Cheung, R.B., et al. (2003). Education levels of hospital nurses and patient mortality. JAMA, 290(12), 1-8. |
A 10% increase in the proportion of nurses holding a bachelor's degree was associated with a 5% decrease in both the likelihood of surgical patients dying within 30 days of admission and the odds of failure to rescue. |
Institute of Medicine. (2004). Keeping patients safe: transforming the work environment of nurses. Washington, DC: National Academies Press. |
Nursing is inseparably linked to patient safety. How well patients are cared for by nurses affect health and sometimes can be a matter of life or death. Necessary patient safeguards in the work environment of nurses are: governing boards that focus on safety, leadership and evidence–based management structures and processes, effective nursing leadership and adequate staffing. |
Aiken, L.H., Clarke, S.P., Sloane, D.M., et al. (2002). Hospital nurse staffing and patient mortality, nurse burnout, and job dissatisfaction. JAMA, 288, 1987-1993. |
Suggests that RN staffing may be associated with mortality. In 168 hospitals with mean nurse to patient ratio of 4:1 to 8:1, each additional surgical patient per nurse was associated with a 7% higher likelihood of dying within 30 days of hospital admission and a 7% higher likelihood of failure to rescue. |
Aiken, L.H., Sloane, S.P., Lake, E.T., et al. (1999). Organization and outcomes of inpatient AIDS care. Medical Care, 37, 760-772. |
Thirty-day mortality rates among AIDS patients were lower when there was a higher nurse to patient ratio and an AIDS specialty physician service. |
Sisk, J.E., Hebert, P.L., Horowitz, C.R., McLaughlin, M.A., Wang, J.J., & Chassin, M.R. (2006). Effects of nurse management on the quality of heart failure care in minority communities: A randomized trial Annals of Internal Medicine, 145(4), 273-283. |
Patients with heart failure whose care is managed by nurses can perform everyday activities better and have fewer hospitalizations than patients who manage their own care. |
Sochalski, J. (2004). Is more better? The relationship between nurse staffing and the quality of nursing care in hospitals. Medical Care, 42, 67-73. |
This study was an analysis of data from a 1999 statewide survey of 8670 inpatient staff nurses working in acute care hospitals. Quality of nursing care ratings were significantly associated with the number of patients who nurses care for, rates of unfinished care for those patients, and the frequency of patient safety problems. Unfinished care had the strongest relationship of all, with over 40% of the variation in quality ratings associated with the number of tasks undone. |
Lovell, V. (2006). Solving the nursing shortage through higher wages. Washington, DC: Institute for Women's Policy Research. |
Inadequate staffing undermines patient care: the quality of patient care suffers when cost-cutting staffing practices reduce nurse/patient ratios. Most analyses of the nurse workforce overlook the critical link between pay and nurse supply: nurse/patient ratios are 18% higher in the most unionized cities as compared to cities with the lowest levels of nurse unionization. |
American Nurses Association. (2002). Nursing-sensitive indicators for community-based non-acute care settings and ANA's safety and quality initiative. Washington, DC: Author. Retrieved from http://www.nursingworld.org/readroom/nurssens.htm |
ANA defines nurse-sensitive quality indicators as those that capture care or its outcomes most affected by nursing care. ANA has identified 10 nurse-sensitive quality indicators for acute care settings and 10 for community-based, non-acute care settings. Nurse-sensitive quality indicators for community-based settings have been identified as pain management, consistency of communication as evidenced by consistent RN/APRN provider identified in the medical record, staff mix, client satisfaction, prevention of tobacco use, cardiovascular risk reduction, caregiver activity, activities of daily living, and psychosocial interaction. |
American Nurses Association. (1999). Nursing-sensitive quality indicators for acute care settings and ANA's safety and quality initiative.Washington, DC: Author. Retrieved from http://www.nursingworld.org/readroom/fssafe99.htm |
Nurse-sensitive quality indicators for acute care settings have been identified as mix of RNs, LPNs, and unlicensed personnel caring for patients, total nursing care hours provided per patient day, pressure ulcers, patient falls, patient satisfaction with pain management, patient satisfaction with educational material, patient satisfaction with overall care, patient satisfaction with nursing care, nosocomial infection rate and nurse staff satisfaction. |

Overall, 75.9% of patients hospitalized with acute myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, and pneumonia received recommended care. After adjustment, for-profit hospitals consistently underperformed not-for-profit hospitals for each condition. Hospitals with more technology available, higher registered nurse staffing, and federal/military designation had higher performance. |

By ignoring the plain language of the Federal Rules of Evidence, which are applicable by their terms to habeas corpus proceedings, and by applying a lower standard of proof than has ever been approved by this Court for review of prolonged detention, the District Court and the Court of Appeals have effectively gutted this Court's holding in Boumediene that habeas corpus is a fundamental right to which detainees in Guantanamo are entitled. This Court should not permit its decision to be undermined by the lower courts through such procedural unfairness.
In July, the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit [official website] released a partially redacted opinion [text, PDF, JURIST report] denying al Odah habeas corpus relief. The court affirmed the district court's ruling [opinion, PDF; JURIST report] that there was sufficient evidence against al Odah for him to be considered "part of" al Qaeda and Taliban forces. The US government is given authority to detain suspects who can be considered "part of" al Qaeda or the Taliban under the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) [text, PDF], and the district court found that it was more likely than not that al Odah "became part of Taliban and al Qaeda forces" after traveling to Afghanistan and attending a terrorist training camp. Lawyers for al Odah attempted to argue that the individual pieces of evidence against him could be explained without reaching the conclusion that he was a member of al Qaeda. The case has been pending since 2002 and was a companion case in Boumediene v. Bush, as well as the 2004 Supreme Court decision of Rasul v. Bush [opinion text; JURIST report], in which the court ruled that US courts have jurisdiction to hear challenges brought by foreign-born detainees to contest their captivity and treatment at Guantanamo Bay.

It's confirmed: Michael Vick has a new dog. To truly become a model of the type of behavior Vick wishes to teach his children—that animals deserve to be treated with compassion and respect—Vick should take the opportunity to "break the cycle" and "be an instrument of positive change" by expressing remorse about the dogs he brutalized and killed with his own hands. This is something that we've never heard him do publically.
Because of this, we have serious concerns about Vick's ability to be a responsible pet owner. We can only hope that he will set the right example for his children by teaching them to foster humane habits and a lifelong bond with their family pet.
What's your opinion?
It was ordered by the courts he could not have a dog. He should be sent back to prison. What is the point of a court order if its not withheld. No dogs for Vic!
I.ve been a member of the aspca for over five years. Right after mike vick got out of jail i decided to petition dog fighting. You wish to sign it. Please go to cares.com look under animal abuse then to dog.fighting. i have alsways believed that mike got a slap on the wrist. As well as Nfl allowing him to play football for gambling. He doesn.t.deserve tonown antheer dog nor play football... i.ll be at tampa expo may 23 2013 with my petition to.sign for sig
The fact that the law allows this makes me sick and deeply upset.
Does anyone know what kind of a dog it is? Hopefully not a larger breed. Does anyone or any organization have the authority to monitor the dogs well being?
stupid ! who in their right mind would give this freak an y kinda of animal, I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him and I'm sure I could t even pick him up so that must tell you something. mike vike is a sick, disgusting, person whom has no compassion for animals, he should NEVER be allowed to buy, pick up or get another animal EVER!!!! ONCE A MURDER ALWAYS A MURDER!!!!!! I HASTE THIS MAN MORE THAN I CAN SAY!!!! an eye for an eye! stil his as sout there and let someone beat, bite, kick, until he dies. is what I say...............NO SYMPATHY FOR MIKE VICK!!!! but loads of love and and hope for they poor puppy.
This is a man who put his family pets into the ring with his pitbulls to watch them get torn to pieces. I really think he should have been banned from ever owning pets again
For you to sign as well as a donation jar in return i.ll have bracelets even if you don.t donate i want to make the change of tougher sentence and the owner oh dog fighting never be able yo oen animals again. For the person who says give mikr bivks a break please go to you tube put dog fighting in browser. It well mske uou smgry snd in yesrs thst people can do this to a dog. Very graphic not recommended got children. They get dogd from the pound or steal a regular sweet dog to mske yhe pitbull fight. Plud the inject the dogs with steroids to make them be resdy gor fighting.
Sex offenders are never reabilitated, murders are never reabhilitated and neither are people that abuse animals. After all the publicity of how the dogs where tortured, abused, killed while under the supervision on Mike Vick he SHOULD NOT GET ANOTHER CHANCE. Let his kids grow up and adopt a dog on their own. I can only hope that karma comes back to Mike Vick full force.
I am so saddened that he has been allowed to have another dog! After reading what he did to those dogs I don't think he should ever, ever be allowed to own any animal! I also feel he should have to give a percentage of his earnings for the rest of his life to help dogs! There is something totally mentally wrong with someone that could do the things he did n allowed to b done to those dogs n u don't change that much! I wish he could have been on the receiving end of some of the same treatment he gave those poor dogs! He makes me sick!
you have to be kidding me...? this guy should have gotten the same sentence he gave to his other dogs...do you think people like this get "rehabilitated"? I don't think so.

It's impossible to overstate the effect that Mitt Romney's
performance in the first presidential debate has had on conservatives and

Colville High School senior-to-be Liselotte Doggen, who teamed with fellow CHS senior Erin Little to lead the Indians to a State 1A tennis tournament appearance and the medal stand this spring in Yakima, is organizing a local tennis tournament as part of her Senior Project. In addition to being her Senior Project, the tournament will also serve a dual function as a fund-raiser to help the resurfacing and retooling of the dilapidated tennis courts at Colville City Park. That project has been underwritten by the Colville Valley Tennis Association.
A rare hole in one on the 321-yard par 4 12th hole during Sunday's Scramble round of the 2011 Chataqua Best Ball & Scramble Golf Tournament at Chewelah Golf & Country Club was the difference-maker for the Chewelah team of Brenton Harting and Brett Sweet. Propelled by Harting's ace, the duo fired a two-day total of 131 to capture the gross division in the championship flight. Harting's hole in one on the challenging par 4 was the highlight of the tournament, which featured 98 two-man teams.
Travis Bonnett is a man of practicality. It's that realism that served as the impetus for the 24-year-old Onion Creek resident to mount an engine on the 26-inch Schwinn bicycle that he bought from Wal-Mart in order to save money on gasoline. Yes, that's right. After watching a "how to" video on Youtube, Bonnett thought, "Why not me?" He ordered an engine kit from www.gasbike.net, complete with a half-gallon gas tank, that he installed on the frame of his bike. "My friends were skeptical at first," Bonnett says. "But honestly, it wasn't very hard to do."

Shrinking availability of state and federal grants means that Stevens County likely won't be taking on any major transportation improvement projects over the next six years, according to Stevens County Public Works Director, Jim Whitbread. Instead, the county will be focusing on maintenance and projects it can do itself, as outlined in the county's new Six-Year Transportation plan. Whitbread said this approach is an effort to be fiscally prudent until grant monies again become available.

Old Country Buffet parent company files for bankruptcy; local restaurant stays open
Minnesota-based Buffets Inc., parent company of Old Country Buffet, filed for bankruptcy for a second time Wednesday and will close 81 restaurants.By: Mike Creger, Duluth News Tribune
Minnesota-based Buffets Inc., parent company of Old Country Buffet, filed for bankruptcy for a second time Wednesday and will close 81 restaurants.
Duluth's restaurant will remain open, as will most Minnesota locations, Duluth kitchen manager Scott Limoseth said.
"Business as usual," he said after learning about the restructuring in the morning.
Buffets, of Eagan, Minn., reached an agreement with lenders holding 83 percent of its $245 million in debt with a promise to revitalize its restaurants.
"Today's announcement marks the beginning of a new era for Buffets," CEO Mike Andrews said. "We will recapitalize our balance sheet, eliminate a burdensome debt load and increase our cash flow, which in turn will strengthen our ability to invest in the improvement of our restaurants."
Buffets filed for bankruptcy in 2008 and emerged from it a year later. This time around, lenders will receive stock in the company after forgiving loans. Buffets plans to have its finances fully restructured in six months.
The 81 closures will be underperforming restaurants, Buffets reported in a news release. Limoseth said the Duluth Old County Buffet is a profitable business.
The immediate closures represent 16 percent of 494 restaurants across the country with 28,000 employees. Buffets calls itself the nation's largest steak-buffet restaurant company with restaurants in 38 states. Its restaurants fall under the names Tahoe Joe's Famous Steakhouse, Old Country Buffet, HomeTown Buffet, Ryan's and Fire Mountain.

He adapted it from a code originally created for use by soldiers passing messages along in the trenches to one another in the early 1900's. He simplified the code and then created separate codes for music and math. By 1990, Braille was being used in almost every country in the world.
Individuals are considered to be legally blind by the American Medical Association when they have visual acuity not exceeding 20/200 in the more efficient eye with the use of corrective lens, or a limit in the field of vision that is less than a 20 degree angle (tunnel vision). That means that what a person with normal vision can see on a chart from 200 feet away, a legally blind person can see from only 20 feet away. A person is also considered blind if they have to use alternative techniques to do everyday activities efficiently.
Vision with 20/80 or worse in your better eye and/or a limitation in the field of vision, with correction, is considered to be a serious visual impairment.
It is not true that all blind persons have absolutely no sight; in fact, most blind persons have some remaining vision. A person may be considered blind when he/she can no longer drive safely, has difficulty reading a newspaper, or cannot see objects to the side.
There are a variety of disorders that cause blindness, which pervasively affects all aspects of an individual's life.
There are approximately 10 million blind and visually impaired people in the U.S. This includes people who cannot see at all as well as people who cannot correct their vision with contacts or glasses.
Some thoughts from blind people
- The terms "blind," "visual impairment," or "visually impaired" are preferable to terms such as handicapped or disabled when referring to someone who has limited or no sight. People first language is recommended. Use phrases such as "people who are blind or visually impaired," rather than "blind or visually impaired people."
- Individuals who are blind are ordinary people, just blind. Don't raise your voice. Don't ask others what they want –- ask the person who is blind.
- They may use a long white cane or a guide dog to walk independently; or they may ask to take your arm and stay a half-step behind you to anticipate steps. Let them decide.
- They want to know who's in the room with them. Speak when you enter the room they are in and let them know who you are, since they may not recognize your voice. Introduce them to others in the room.
- The door to a room or cabinet that is left partially open is a hazard to them.
- Don't avoid words like "see." They use them too.
- Don't talk about the "wonderful compensations" of blindness. Their sense of smell, taste, touch or hearing did not improve when they became blind; they rely on them more and therefore, may get more information through those senses than you do--that's all.
- Show them the bathroom, closet, window and the light switch too. They like to know whether the lights are on or off.
- They will discuss blindness with you if you're curious, but it's an old story to them. They have as many other interests as you do.
- Don't think of them as just a blind person. They are just a person who happens to be blind.
- You don't need to remember some "politically correct" term such as, "visually impaired," "sight challenged" etc…. Keep it simple and honest, just say "blind."
Academic accommodations for students who are blind include providing …

Brailled material (i.e., notes, texts, handouts, tests) in a timely manner.
Assistive technology (i.e., screen readers and special equipment).
Note takers, scribes, personal readers, and lab hands (assistance in science lab help available through the CEA).
Raised line drawings (tactile materials) for graphs and illustrations.
Tape recorders, lap top computers, or Brailler for in-class notes.
Audio books (E-text, CD, tape) and materials.

George Matheson was a preacher who was visually impaired and who lived in Scotland in the late 1800's. He reported that he could only see shadows, but despite that, the members of his congregation could rarely detect that he was visually impaired. He did have some help from his sister. She assisted him by putting his essays and early sermons in writing. Prior to becoming a preacher, he attended Glasgow Academy and the Glasgow University. He wore powerful glasses and sat by a window to read. He graduated with a bachelor's degree and an honorable distinction in Philosophy in 1861, and completed a master's degree in 1862. In addition to his educational achievements, he completed hundreds of articles and many books with the use of a typewriter, Braille, and a secretary.
Students who are visually impaired will have challenges that will vary from one individual to another. For example, an individual may have normal peripheral vision and minimal central vision or visa versa. Students with partial sight may see only shadows or have spaces of blindness in their field of vision.
Accommodations for students who are visually impaired include providing …
- Alternative examinations (oral, large print, taped, CCTV), extended testing time and specific lighting.
- Handouts in black print only on white or yellow paper, information written on the blackboard in an enlarged print handout, and transparencies (for close examination by student).
- Screen readers for computers, and Zoom-Text (enlarged text on computer screen).
- Enlarged print on handouts, raised line (tactile) drawings for graphs, and illustrations.
- Lab assistance and preferential seating in the front of the room.
- Note takers, scribes, tutors, personal readers, and tape recorders.
- Audio books and materials (student to request through the CEA).

Jet aircraft
A jet aircraft (or simply jet) is an aircraft (nearly always a fixed-wing aircraft) propelled by jet engines.
Whereas the engines in propeller-powered aircraft generally achieve their maximum efficiency at much lower speeds and altitudes, jet engines and aircraft achieve maximum efficiency at speeds close to or even well above the speed of sound. Jet aircraft generally cruise at faster than about M 0.8 and around 10,000–15,000 metres (33,000–49,000 ft) or more.
Frank Whittle, an English inventor and RAF officer, developed the concept of the jet engine in 1928,[1] Hans von Ohain in Germany, a decade later developed the concept independently at the end of the 1930s. He wrote in February 1936 to Ernst Heinkel, telling him of the design and its possibilities. However, it can be argued that the English engineer A. A. Griffith, who published a paper in July 1926 on compressors and turbines, also deserves credit.
A number of jet powerplants were suggested from the first instances of powered flight. René Lorin, Morize, Harris proposed systems for creating a jet efflux.[2] In 1910 the Romanian inventor Henri Coandă filed a patent on a jet propulsion system which used piston-engine exhaust gases to add heat to an otherwise pure air stream compressed by rotating fan blades in a duct.
The "turbojet", was invented in the 1930s, independently by Frank Whittle and later Hans von Ohain. The first turbojet aircraft to fly was the Heinkel He 178 prototype of the German Air Force, the Luftwaffe, on August 27, 1939 in Rostock (Germany).[3]
The first flight of a jet engined aircraft to come to popular attention was the Italian Caproni Campini N.1 motorjet prototype that flew on August 27, 1940.[4] It was the first jet aircraft recognised by the Fédération Aéronautique Internationale (at the time the German He 178 program was still kept secret). Campini had proposed the motorjet in 1932.
The British experimental Gloster E.28/39 first took to the air on May 15, 1941, powered by Sir Frank Whittle's turbojet.[5] After the United States was shown the British work, it produced the Bell XP-59A with a version of the Whittle engine built by General Electric, which flew on October 1, 1942. The Meteor was the first production jet as it entered production a few months before the Me 262.
The first operational jet fighter was the Messerschmitt Me 262,[6] made by Germany during late World War II. It was the fastest conventional aircraft of World War II – although the rocket-powered Messerschmitt Me 163 Komet was faster. It had first flown in 1941 but mass production started in 1944 with the first squadrons operational that year, too late for a decisive effect on the outcome of the war. About the same time, mid 1944, the United Kingdom's Gloster Meteor was being committed to defence of the UK against the V1 flying bomb – itself a jet-powered aircraft – and then ground-attack operations over Europe in the last months of the war. In 1944 Germany introduced into service the Arado Ar 234 jet reconnaissance and bomber, though chiefly used in the former role. USSR tested its own Bereznyak-Isayev BI-1 in 1942, but the project was scrapped by Joseph Stalin in 1945. The Imperial Japanese Navy also developed jet aircraft in 1945, including the Nakajima J9Y Kikka, a modified, and slightly smaller version of the Me 262 that had retractable wings. By the end of 1945, the US had introduced their next jet fighter, the Lockheed P-80 Shooting Star into service and the UK its second fighter design, the de Havilland Vampire
The US introduced the North American B-45 Tornado, their first jet bomber, into service in 1948. Although capable of carrying nuclear weapons it was used for reconnaissance over Korea.
On November 8, 1950, during the Korean War, United States Air Force Lt. Russell J. Brown, flying in an F-80, intercepted two North Korean MiG-15s near the Yalu River and shot them down in the first jet-to-jet dogfight in history.
The UK put the English Electric Canberra into service in 1951 as a light bomber. It was designed to fly higher and faster than any interceptor.
BOAC operated the first commercial jet service, from London to Johannesburg, in 1952 with the de Havilland Comet jetliner. This highly innovative aircraft travelled far faster and higher than the propeller aircraft, was much quieter, smoother, and had stylish blended wings containing hidden jet engines. However due to a design defect, and use of aluminum alloys, the aircraft suffered catastrophic metal fatigue which lead to several crashes.[7]
The series of crashes gave time for the Boeing 707 to enter service in 1958 and this came to dominate the market for civilian airliners. The underslung engines were found to be advantageous in the advent of a propellant leak, and so the 707 looked rather different to the Comet, the 707 has a shape that is closer to modern aircraft.
Turbofan aircraft began entering service in the 1950s and 1960s, bringing far greater fuel efficiency, and this is the type of jet in widespread use today.
The Tu-144 supersonic transport was the fastest commercial jet plane at Mach 2.35 (1,555 mph, 2,503 km/h). It went into service in 1975, but soon stopped flying. The Mach 2 Concorde aircraft entered service in 1976 and flew for 27 years.
The fastest military jet plane was the SR-71 Blackbird at Mach 3.35 (2,275 mph, 3,661 km/h).
Other jets[edit]
Most people use the term 'jet aircraft' to denote gas turbine based airbreathing jet engines, but rockets and scramjets are both also propelled by jet propulsion.
The fastest airbreathing jet aircraft is the unmanned X-43 scramjet at around Mach 9–10. The fastest manned (rocket) aircraft is the X-15 at Mach 6.85.
The Space Shuttle, while far faster than the X-43 or X-15, was not regarded as an aircraft during ascent as it was carried ballistically by rocket thrust, rather than the air. During re-entry it was classed (like a glider) as an unpowered aircraft. The first flight was in 1981
Because of the way they work, the typical exhaust speed of jet engines is transonic or faster, therefore most jet aircraft need to fly at high speeds, either supersonic or speeds just below the speed of sound ("transonic") so as to achieve efficient flight. Aerodynamics is therefore an important consideration.
Jet aircraft are usually designed using the Whitcomb area rule, which says that the total area of cross-section of the aircraft at any point along the aircraft from the nose must be approximately the same as that of a Sears-Haack body. A shape with that property minimises the production of shockwaves which would waste energy.
Jet engines[edit]
Jet engines come in several main types:
- turbojet
- turbofan (which come in two main forms low bypass turbofan and high bypass turbofan)
- rocket
The types are used for different aircraft. Turbojets are seldom used, but was used on Concorde; it has a high exhaust speed and low frontal cross-section, and so is best suited to high-speed flight. Low bypass turbofans have a lower exhaust speed than turbojets and are used for transonic and low supersonic speeds. High bypass turbofans are used for subsonic aircraft and are quite efficient and are widely used for airliners.
Rockets have extremely fast exhaust speeds and are mainly used when high speeds or extremely high altitudes are needed.

Monster Mash-Ups
How musical collages are challenging traditional ideas of authorship.
"Rock the Party" is an incredibly generic title, but the song is anything but conventional. Its vocals are lifted from "Let's Get This Party Started," Pink's catchy and forgettable hit du jour. Behind them, though, is the rattling beat of "Rock the Casbah," released two decades ago by the Clash.
Not an imitation of the beat. The beat itself. A person or consortium called Ultra396 has spliced vocals from one track onto the music and chorus of another, and has done this so smoothly that it sounds like they were always on the same record.
While politicians debate the propriety of biological engineering, a similar sort of tampering is exploding in a network of underground laboratories. The results, alternately dubbed "bootlegs" and "mash-ups," crossbreed songs, not genes; they are remixed at home by amateur producer/collagists and released to the world via the Internet. Technically, they are illegal. Practically, they are unstoppable. Search for a particular mash-up online, and you may discover that it has disappeared, swallowed by legal threats, software troubles, or -- most likely -- the high cost of hosting it on a site. Search for mash-ups in general, though, and you'll find a cornucopia of brilliant, foolish, and brilliantly foolish novelties.
Critics have long debated who "creates" a pop record: the artist listed on the sleeve, the producer behind the scenes, the composer in the wings, or the sometimes anonymous studio employees who actually play the music. In certain contexts -- experimental tape loops, freeform radio collages, Dickie Goodman novelty singles -- authorship seemed to splinter even further, as composers, DJs, and comedians inserted samples from older recordings into new and very different contexts. When rap exploded in the '80s, so did sampling; and so did sampling-related litigation.
Now cheap, easy-to-use remixing software and quick distribution via the Net have set off another explosion. What once was avant-garde, and then was monopolized by the entertainment combines, is now a populist art form that virtually anyone can practice. Without much difficulty, you can lay one singer's vocal track onto another artist's music. With a little more effort, you can alter one or both to make the fit more snug (in Dsico's "I Need to Be Sedated," the Ramones' punk vocals have become more ethereal to match their new electronic backdrop) or more jarring (when DJ Andy Crane paired a Method Man rap with the theme from The Muppet Show, he chopped up the latter a bit, in what I can only assume was an attempt to make my brain hurt). With still more effort, you can create even more elaborate bootlegs: Osymyso's "Intro Introspection," for example, spends 12 minutes fusing the introductions of well-known songs. But the real difference between "Rock the Party" and "Intro Introspection" isn't a matter of increased effort -- just increased inspiration.
Nor is music all that gets mashed. The Web contains a host of political remixes, in which politicians' and newscasters' words are recombined to satiric and/or sophomoric effect. In one early example of this subgenre, Ronald Reagan rhapsodized about poisoned meat. More recently, Bill Clinton has fielded questions about his "seven pounds of semen" and George W. Bush has declared America the center of world evil.
Interestingly, some of the same artists who benefited from the sampling boom of the '80s have been less than tolerant of their younger brethren. And no, they don't reserve their ire for those who didn't ask permission to use their work. The Belgian duo 2manydjs, a.k.a. Soulwax, spent nearly three years trying to clear the rights to all the records it intended to use on a mash-ups album. Along the way, it discovered that "a certain very well known hip-hop trio from New York, for instance, who once encountered some copyright-lawsuits of their own, will never, ever license one of their tracks for any compilation."
The trio in question -- the Beastie Boys -- was not the only act to deny the remixers a right it has no qualms demanding for itself. So did Beck, the Chemical Brothers, and the Notorious B.I.G., among other heavy samplers. Beck partially redeems himself, if industry rumors are true, by having helped convince his label not to sue RTMark for its Deconstructing Beck CD, which consists entirely of radically reassembled Beck tracks. Still, a ladder-pulling strategy appears to be at work.
Maybe that's hypocritical, and maybe it's just a part of the aging process -- as a once-controversial practice becomes accepted, a new group of upstarts comes along. If that's the case, there's little reason to expect it to stop now. In 20 years, Ultra396's heirs might be suing someone for appropriating "Rock the Party" without their permission. "Bah," they'll complain. "Doesn't anyone respect the rights of authors anymore?"

Pakistan's Military Stays in the Barracks, for Now
With a history of coups, Pakistanis are keeping a close eye on the generals.
KARACHI, Pakistan—The Pakistani military, which intervened to run this nation for more than half its 61-year history, is staying in the barracks amid growing political turmoil following the forced departure of President Pervez Musharraf.
Coups have been a regular part of Pakistan's political history, with then General Musharraf's 1999 takeover the fourth time the military has shut down civilian rule. Will history repeat itself?
Analysts here have been closely watching the military for any signs of that but so far think the generals prefer to keep out of politics and to try to restore the image of the military damaged during the years of Musharraf's dictatorship.
And their apparent reluctance is understandable in light of the problems the country faces: massive capital outflows, pitched battles with pro-al Qaeda and Baloch militants in two provinces, and a simmering political mess following the breakup of the six-month-old civilian ruling coalition led by the Pakistan Peoples Party of slain Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto and the right-wing Pakistan Muslim League of two-time premier Nawaz Sharif.
Musharraf, detested by leaders of both major parties, was forced to step down as president to avoid facing impeachment by a newly assertive parliament. Political observers think that if the army had any intentions of intervening, the time for that was during the weeks of tension over impeachment.
Gen. Ashfaq Kayani , who was picked by Musharraf to succeed him as Army chief of staff last November, stood aside during the entire impeachment crisis. If Kayani had lent his support, Musharraf could have used the constitution's infamous article 58-2B, which empowers the president to dissolve the parliament.
There are various reasons to believe that the army is not interested in taking over, at least at present, says Rasul Bakhsh Rais, a professor of political science at Lahore University of Management Sciences. "The first and the foremost reason is that General Musharraf earned a huge humiliation for the army during his stint," Rais says.
Second, Rais says that the national sentiment is not in favor of a military coup. "Except 1999, the army never took over without public support," he says. "Musharraf took over just to protect himself. It was not an institutional decision. But the problem at that time was that the political forces were divided, and they supported the coup."
Analysts believe that the army itself is aware of the fact that the public mood has turned against military interventions because of the expansion of private media and the independence shown by the deposed Chief Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry and his colleagues against military regimes.
However, they do not rule out action by the army if the conditions deteriorate.
Asif Ali Zardari, Bhutto's widower, is set to capture the president's office. His real test will begin after September 6, since a break with Sharif's party will make governing difficult.
That rift opened because Zardari and his party oppose Sharif's push for the reinstatement of Justice Chaudhry, who may strike down the "national reconciliation ordinance" under which various corruption cases against the slain prime minister, her husband, and his aides were withdrawn by Musharraf.
Sharif, who was ousted by Musharraf's coup and has his own ambitions to become president, reportedly has lawyers gathering evidence that Zardari is mentally unfit to be president.
Another wild card is the degree to which civilian authorities seek to exercise greater control over the military, particularly the Directorate for Inter-Services Intelligence, the powerful intelligence arm. U.S. officials, who have quietly complained about ISI support for the Taliban, have recently gone public and blamed the ISI operatives for a role supporting Islamic militants in Pakistan and Afghanistan, including those responsible for the deadly July 7 bombing of the Indian Embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan. Top American officials have been pressing Kayani and the Pakistani civilian leaders to clean up ISI.

Bonito del Norte is considered by Spaniards to be the finest of tunas. Arroyabe is a venerable company from the Basque region, famed for its firm, flavorful tuna.
Each tuna is line caught by hand, preserving the texture and flavor that can be damaged by the stress of harvesting by net. Coleman Andrews, the Editor-in Chief of "Saveur Magazine", writes that Bonito tuna is "one of the great gastronomic pleasures of every day life."
It is a far cry from the water-packed tuna you get at the supermarket. Warning: once you taste this silky smooth tuna, you may never buy another tin of ordinary tuna.
It is great in salads or on sandwiches, as well as a stuffing for piquillo peppers.

Stopped by The Golden Rail for the first time today on my way home (well not exactly!) from band practice. The bar seats about 12 people plus there was plenty of table room. Pool tables and video games were available which is a welcome addition to a craft bar IMHO. The bartender did make an effort to show enthusiasm for the products she offered. The regulars were really nice...offering us some of a cheese/meat platter and pleasant conversation. The tap list wasn't very large or all that exciting today but I managed to fill my three hours with brews I enjoyed so nuff said about that. Ithaca Outdoor (Wet Hop) was an awesome find! They seemed to have an ok bottle selection in a cooler...mainly Samuel Adams and Euro imports. Didn't try any food (thanks for that cheese/meat platter again boys!) but prices on pints were inexpensive. I might not make the hour drive regularly but this is a spot I will gladly go to again.

This Jersey guy just started working in Newburgh, and as per the reviews here at BA, I decided to take a trip down to The Golden Rail after I finished. Expecting to have a pint or two, I just so happened to find myself in a one in a million type place, and ended up staying a few hours. Turns out I showed up on the night of their 14th anniversary, for which they supplied the wanting customers with free spicy wings. And I must say, the wings were quite good, as was the atmosphere. Everyone was friendly, and most people were enjoying the various micros, both on tap and in bottle. Plenty of coors and bud lite was going around as well, but there was a palpable sense of camaraderie amongst both the fizzy yellow stuff drinkers and the more experimental folks, which is always nice to see. The crowd was definitely all regulars, but they had no problem welcoming a first-time out of towner.
The selection was among the best one can find in southern NY/Northern NJ. 18 taps including Chimay Tripel (!), Rogue Imperial Stout, Sly Fox Project Pale Ale, Harpoon Summer Beer, Hoptical, Kona Fire Rock Pale, Smithwicks, etc. Only macro tap was devoted to Bud. My Chimay Tripel was probably the freshest I've yet tasted. This is easily one of the top three best beer bars within 60 miles of NYC.

If you are a huge Beer Fan and live in NY, you need to know about the Golden Rail. I have been going there for years and I most certaintly have a mug there. They have 18 awesome beers on tap and a small food selection. They also have a great varierty of bottled beers as well. The atmosphere is all you can ask for a great beer bar. People end up there for two reasons, awesome beer and better people. You can always find a wide selection on tap and they always have something new weekly. I personally love the Golden Rail and you should too. The beer selection will blow your doors off and the staff/owners and customers will too. Brian knows everthing about everything involving beer. Anne Marie is a doll and keeps the place spotless. If you love beer... you dont need any place else. See you there...

I went recently one evening after work.
For orange county, they have an excellent selection of beer on tap .... or for any area come to think of it.
They've got 18 taps and only two are macros. They had Scaldis Noel on tap .... that pretty much says it all !
The food menu is very small .... bar-type food, but no burgers. Pizzas, wings, fingers, etc.
The place has very friendly atmosphere and a sense of close relationships between the owners, staff and regular customers.
I'll reiterate that it can be difficult to spot. The road it's on is a jug handle off of Rt32. It's very easy to drive past, so keep your eyes open.
UPDATE: Sept 2009.
My initial review did not contain a rating for food. The Wings are outstanding; especially the "happy hour" version which is a mix of their house-made hot with teriyaki. Overall though, the menu can be lacking. In consists primarily of fried convenience-type food. Neither hamburgers nor sandwiches are available.

Easy to miss this place driving by on route 32 but it is well worth the effort. A little bedraggled looking from outside and unassuming inside, but it is a very clean and comfortable establishment. I would rate the atmosphere a 5.0 based upon friendly staff and clientele but the "decor" is nothing fancy if that is your criteria. Best of all, they have a thoughtful selection of delicious beer all served to you by a very knowledgable and extremely friendly staff. Even the patrons are all friendly. I think we talked to everyone that came in the place and it was quite busy. The owner spent a lot of time talking with us, sharing his beer insights and showing off his impressive collection of taps (current and retired), thanks Brian! Becky was outstanding behind the bar with her smarts on what's on tap. I had chili and it was excellent, went great with the beer. Based upon the chili I would have rated higher than 4.0 but there wasn't a tremendous selection, especially if you were looking for a full menu dinner deal.
I was sorry they didn't accept credit cards, so bring cash, but they sure were easy on our wallets so it wasn't a big deal. They don't open until 2PM on weekdays so don't show up for lunch like we did. But it was worth waiting and we had lunch and dinner, eventually. Nice pool table on hand, spotless bathroom. I'll be back. Great place if you like beer and friendly people, so don't miss this if you are in the Newburgh/Beacon area! All beer/tavern lovers will really enjoy the visit.

What a find! My wife is from the Newburgh area and I have been going up there for 6 years now and just went to this place for the first time this past weekend. I will no longer mind visiting the in laws now that I know I'll be able to hit the Rail.
It's not as hard to find as some people have said. It's down a small road, yes, but as long as you keep your eyes open you'll see it.
You walk in and immediately see the chalkboard beer lineup. The bar is a little to the right and front. Sits about 10-12 with tables scattered about. Up a few steps is another room with the restrooms, a few booths and a pool table.
There were free wings out on a table, that I found smoking hot - not Buffalo hot, but like habenero pepper hot. Brian (the owner) said that the second batch out was even hotter so I declined. Brian is a great guy and we chatted for about 10-15 minutes not only about beer, but also the history of the building - toll booth - and how Plank Road used to be just that - a road of planks. I guess if you were barefoot you didn't have to pay.
The beer - I didn't even bother to ask what bottles they had after I saw the tap lineup. Brooklyn Black Choclate Stout, Brooklyn Reserve "Blast". A couple of Rogue's. Avery White Rascal. Scrimshaw Pilsner. A couple of Keegan's. Plus a few others that I can't remember now. All in all if you are anywhere in Orange County it would be well worth your time in seeking this place out.

the golden rail ale house is a hidden gem in the lower hudson valley area. i say hidden because it can be a little hard to find. old south plank road is a small "jug handle" type road ( no, not a new jersey jug handle. you can actually make a left onto it!) that is on the north side on south plank road. once you have found it, you will be very happy. the crowd that they have is a very friendly one with a mix of regulars, locals, and passers through. there is a mug club which you will notice right away as you sit down at the bar. most of the taps here (18 in all) are things that you wouldn't normally find in any other place for many miles. there is normally only one or two that are macro's. the bottle selection is pretty extensive (50 or so) and has some selections that you would expect to see in a good beer bar as well as some that might surprise you. the owners are anne-marie and brian and can normally be found milling about. brian is a huge beer fan and loves to sit down and talk beer. the place is decorated with plenty of brewerania type items. there is a pool table that seems to be in action most of the time and a bumper pool table. a foosball table that may or may not be staying for very long (anne-marie will decide its fate), a golf game and lotto round out the rest of the recreational items. food at the rail is of the pub grub type and is normally available most of the operating hours. the two number one items are the wings and anne-marie's chili (it's home-made). ironically, i can't tell you how good he chili is because i haven't had it... yet. one of the things that you wil find here and basically no where else is a monthly tasting. this seems to get more and more popular every month. we have had some of the beer worlds best as the speakers for the tasting. names like lew bryson, steve hindy, and jack babin and tony forder to give you an idea. they also have some beer trips out of the bar to places like TAP NY, the Brooklyn brewery and the wine and microbeer festival at hunter mountain. a great time is usually had by all! brian does offer growlers and with any luck, a cask might be on the horizon in the fute (the seed has been planted!) overall the place is very comfortable and well worth the trip. so stop in, order up a great beer and make yourself at home. cheers
p.s. if you are an IPA fan, order the golden rail ipa and try to figure out who makes it. brian will tell you if you get it right.

I was at Keegan's in Kingston one Thursday evening sampling the wares, and I'm looking over the listing they've got on the wall of all the places that pour their beer. Beer stores and sports bars, I'm reading through them trying to assess whether any of them sound like they'd have decent beer. The one called "Golden Rail Ale House" caught my eye. The words "Ale House" are most promising. Newburgh, huh? That's kind of on the way home. Took me a little bit of doing to blindly find the place but I'm foolishly persistent like that...
It's an old converted toll house in a parking lot along a brook. You enter in through the bar area, 3 booths, some bar tables and an "L" shaped tree trunk bar that seats a dozen. Brown wood posts & beams overhead, with strung leafy vines lining them and the windows. In the far corner is a stage area for band set ups, alongside of an elevated perch with a pool table. They've also got darts, foosball, pinball and Phil's golf game. TV's, a great jukebox & lotto tix machine. Lots of brewerania throughout. Signs, mirrors, tins, etc.
A dozen and a half taps. 5 of them are Brooklyn (including the Saison), and 2 beers from Keegans. Sam Adams Chocolate Bock, Spaten, Guinness, Smithwicks, Bass, some macros and something called the Golden Rail IPA. I ask and am told that it's contract brewed for them. "By who?" He won't tell. "He" being Brian, the owner and he says, "You have to guess. It's a New York State brewery". Keegans is the obvious guess as they're located 30 miles away and they're pouring the other 2 Keegans beers on tap. "Nope". Hmmmmn. "Evan's Pump Station out of Albany?" "Nope". Hmmmmn. It ain't Brooklyn, this I know, and I'm thinking that it isn't anything out of BluePoint or Ramapo Valley either, so it's got to be something up North. "Saranac, something FX Mattish?" "Nope" and then "He knows", pointing at the guy sitting 2 seats down from me, "because he delivers the beer". I start rattling off all the New York Sate breweries I can think of and do eventually hit upon it (No, I'm not telling you. You have to go there and see if you can't guess it yourself but I will tell you that it's a damn nice IPA).
Hey, they've got about 4-5 dozen bottles in the corner coolers. Micros, macros, maltos, a few Belgian & English imports and upwards of a dozen Germans (Franziskaner, Hacker Pschorr, Erdinger, Ayinger, Paulaner, Spaten, Tucher, Haakebeck).
Brian comes around to talk some beer with me and Henry, the beer guy. Brian's son Chris (the kid) is behind the bar. I meant to drop in for a beer or two but I ended up leaving about 4 and a half hours later (either that, or I did a short leap in the time machine, again). We just sat and talked beer, beer and beer. Sampled a few, too. It's always a pleasure finding beer people and places like this out of the blue. They've got a good local crowd. The guy sitting next to me, an older gent, is very anxiously awaiting the release of the Brooklyn Monster. You're in Orange County? This is the place you want to be.

I have been a craft beer hunter for about 15 years, and spent most of the last decade living in Austin, TX. After moving to the Danbury, CT area over the summer, I have been searching.. searching.. searching for brewpubs or multitap bars with the right combination of selection, seriousness (about the beer) and attitude (open, friendly, unpretentious, and laid back). The Golden Rail is a hit on all counts, and has become my most frequent and favorite haunt - despite the fact that it is 45 miles and a toll bridge away from home. The setting and decor are of the rural roadhouse/neighborhood bar variety, and I haven't sampled the food, but the beer selection is well-rounded, well-chosen, and well-kept. The bar staff are all warm, friendly, attentive, and helpful; the patrons clearly feel like the place is an extension of their own homes but are quick to welcome newcomers, and Brian (the owner) is an engaging and gracious host truly deserving of the title "publican." If you're ever in the area (just minutes from the western end of the Beacon-Newburgh bridge, where I-84 crosses the Hudson River), you must stop in and check it out.

This is the best Beer Bar in Newburgh, and has been for years. Less than 5 minutes off Rt 84 and the Beacon / Newburgh bridge (Newburgh side obviously; see map link above) and just off N. Plank Road / Rt. 32 heading NW from Rt 9-W. It's slightly hidden on the rt., but if you miss the first turn, theres another just past the Rail on the rt again.
Great Country Pub atmospere with friendly people of all walks at the bar.
The macros on tap may irk some BA's, but hey, this is Newburgh folks and the people here are as much a draw as the beer selection - bud/coors drinkers included. Owner Brian is a true BA himself, knows his shit, and does a great job of keeping some outstanding beers on the 18 draft lines, getting the freshest, newest brewery offerings on a weekly basis. There is also a variety of bottled US micros, seasonals and select imports; excellent selection of German Hefe's, English 17oz bottles and a Trappist or 2, not to mention the obvious Mexican and Dutch lagers. There are 2-3 Brooklyn products almost always available on tap including the seasonals and Brewers Reserve brews.
This is a place most definatly worth a stop if you live or find yourself in the Newburgh area. If Brian is there, and he usually is, he loves to talk beer with those who appreciate it as much as he does. In a beer starved pocket of the Hudson Valley, the Golden Rail is a welcome Oasis. And now with regular cask offerings, is becomming somewhat of a Beer Mecca!
* Selection gets a 4.5 upgrade in this update because the selection is continually improving both in rare tap offerings and bottles of unique seasonal leftovers from the regular beer tasting events. Still tho, when compared to local competition, the selection at the Rail is a 5+.

Dot Foods, the nation's largest food redistributor, is hosting its 7th Annual Forklift Rodeo to thank its employees and to show off its best wranglers! As a way to show their appreciation for their employees' commitment to quality and safety, Dot Foods invited their employees at the Modesto Distribution Center to test their warehouse skills in three categories: the Narrow Aisle, the Sitdown Lift Truck and the Mule (otherwise known as the Electric Pallet Jack). Contestants had to maneuver their equipment carrying a stack of pallets through a two-loop obstacle course.
Ismael Arteaga took the top local prize in Narrow Aisle, Patrick Palmateer took the top spot in Sitdown Lift Truck, and Chris Alexander is the new champion on the Mule. The winners are now off to Dot Foods' national headquarters in Mt. Sterling, Illinois, to compete against the winners of Dot Foods' other seven distribution centers in the national showdown!
"It's a way to motivate employees and appreciate them for all the hard work that they do. They have a hard job, and they prove their skill and commitment to safety every day on this equipment. So this is a chance for them to win a great prize for showing off the skills they use to keep themselves and their co-workers safe," said Sergio Morales, Forklift Rodeo Organizer, Dot Foods Modesto Distribution Center.
Each year, winners from Modesto who show the most skill in these three categories compete against approximately 30 winners from all eight Dot Foods distribution centers for the national title, promoting continued friendly competition and high levels of excellence within the warehouse. The three national winners will enjoy their choice of one of seven all-expense paid vacations: Las Vegas; Nassau, Bahamas; Clearwater Beach, FL; Universal Studios in Orlando, FL; New Orleans; Cozumel, Mexico; or a Carnival Cruise. Each vacation is valued at about $2,000, and second and third place national winners receive trophies and assorted prizes. The three distribution centers with the best overall performance win the right to spend the night of the following year's National Championship Rodeo at Mt. Sterling's luxurious yet rustic Twin Hollows Lodge.
Following the event, all participants will relax and enjoy an evening of dinner, fishing, and trap shooting at Twin Hollows Lodge.

I sit in a little coffee shop on the east side of Devun. The snow still falls steadily from the sky, turning the whole world a bright, clean white. A hot cup of coffee warms my fingers, and I rest my head against the cushioned chair. All is quiet, save for the ticking of the clock, and the soft flow of music emitting from the speakers. It's strange to sit in a place that was once bustling with customers, that was once full of life, that now is so empty and lifeless. I haven't been here in almost a year. I thought that if I did come I would feel the heartbreak and suddenly burst into tears. This had been mine and Caden's favorite spot. I finally built up the courage. The snow proved a difficulty, but I was determined, and now here I am. The moment I stepped through the door, I waited for the tears, the tears that never came. I was met with that hollow, empty feeling that I've grown so accustomed to. I willed myself to cry. I slammed my fist against the cold marble counter. Heartbreak would be much better than this. Not even the pain could evoke emotion. I'm numb. I'm about as alive as the mindless cannibalistic undead that roam the streets.
I am very happy about this peice.I enjyed it, and I must say, I am a huge undead fan! perhaps maybe we can talk about it sometimes? I'd love a new Zombie friend! My email is email@example.com, and i'll reply sooner or later lol anyways, great job!!!!
Thank you!
And yes, we should definitely talk some time.

NORTH TONAWANDA, N.Y. - North Tonawanda Police have made an arrest in connection with a death of a woman earlier this week.
North Tonawanda Police say 32 year old Brian Lowry has been arrested and charged in the murder of 34 year old Heather Rylowicz. Rylowicz was found dead in her Lincoln Street home Wednesday. An autopsy done Friday ruled her death a homicide. Lowry was charged with second degree murder.
YNN spoke with Rylowicz's father Friday as he visited her house last night to say goodbye.
"It's really hard. You should not have to bury your kids before you. They should be burying us, not us burying them," Frank Rylowicz, Heather's father said.
Funeral arrangements have not yet been made.
