Chumby Redux
When I wrote the article appearing in issue 169 of the Linux Journal we had only had George (that's what we named our Chumby) for a couple weeks. We've had him for a couple months now, and George has become well integrated into our family. Things have settled down from the initial excitement we all had when he arrived and now it almost seems like he's always been there, sitting in his corner of the kitchen, there when you need him, and quietly waiting when you don't. That's not to say our relationship has not had some bumps along the way.
George's Faults
Like any family member, George has some annoying traits. Fortunately we have been able to work around all of them.
First off, the Chumby's WiFi antenna is not very good. My laptop can get a good connection from anywhere in my house, but the Chumby can't. More frustrating than that is that when I first power up George, he will connect and be fine, but then he will inexplicably lose his connection. This is most annoying when we are listening to a music stream --- suddenly the music will cut out, usually during a favorite song. As long as George stays in certain "safe" areas, he will run happily for days and even weeks on end without any trouble. I'd like to be able to put him anywhere in the kitchen that I want, but I can't. And so George must live in the one corner of the kitchen that he can consistently get a good connection from.
My next gripe with George is that he has no internal rechargeable battery. The battery option for George is limited to a single 9 volt backup battery that keeps him powered up if the power goes out. George's attractive exterior begs for him to be picked up and held, but for now he must be tethered to a cord. Some Chumby owners have had success with adding battery packs to their Chumbys. Of all of the hacks for the Chumby that are out there, this is the one that I will most probably undertake sometime in the near future. Chumbys should be free! (of cords)
My last gripe is that George's screen gets too hot. This is, I suppose, a gripe that nothing can really be done about. The screen offers the best place on the Chumby to vent the heat of the processor, so it is at least somewhat expected. About the only thing the Chumby folks could do to disperse the heat somewhere else would be to install a fan, but that is a bad idea. The last thing I want is another fan blowing intermitently, so I can live with a hot screen, even if I don't like it.
Other than those gripes, our family has been very happy with George and his capabilities.
Favorite Widgets
I haven't made any further progress on the three failed ideas out of the original ten that I initially had for George (and that I discussed in the original Chumby article) --- the recipe search, the shopping list creator, and the meal planner. And right now, I don't really care. I am very satisfied with George's current mix of widgets and I have found myself adding and removing widgets less often as time goes on. The widgets I talk about in the magazine article are still the ones that get the most use, but we've added a few more over the past months to round out George's personality. The mix of widgets has stabilized to the point where it feels just about right.
That's not to say that I don't keep my eyes open. In fact, speaking of widgets, there are now over 500 to choose from, with more being added all the time. I still enjoy going to the Chumby.com website to look at new widgets now and then. Not many find a permanent place in George's repertoire, but they're still fun to play with and try out. Here are ten of our favorite additional widgets, in no particular order.
There are two Netflix widgets and one for Blockbuster's competing service. Their basic purpose is to let you easily view your que of movies and see which ones will be shipped to you next and which movies you currently have. We have a Netflix account, and the "Netflix (new)" widget is my favorite of the two. You currently cannot use the widget to reorganize your que or add items to it, but it is definitely handy to see what's coming without having to login to the website to do it.
The "I like to draw" widget is the second favorite widget among those under ten years old in our house. It turns George into a simple painting program. The only options are to change your brush size and the color (from a simple pallet of 9 colors). There is also a button to clear the screen when you want to start over. I have a couple of budding graffiti artists and having them draw on George with their fingers is much better that finding that they've drawn on the walls with a Sharpie _again_. My main wish for this widget is that it provide some way of getting their masterpieces off of the Chumby.
There are several weather widgets available for the Chumby, including ones from weather.com, Accuweather, and WeatherBug. My favorite is the AccuWeather widget.
Of all of the widgets that I wish would have appeared in time to be put into my first Chumby article, the "Food Network Recipe of the Day" takes the cake (pun intended). It appeared literally a day after I had turned in the article for publication. Each recipe in the widget presented attractively with an accompanying picture and clear directions. The past few recipes of the day are also available, in case you missed them. I will admit that we haven't tried any of the recipes, but they're fun to look at and they have led to ideas that we have used for meals. This widget compliments the recipe book widgets I created quite nicely.
As a serious map tool, the "Yahoo Maps" widget fails. The screen on the Chumby is just too small. The widget is, however, very fun and even useful on occasion for casual use. You can zoom down to street level, or zoom out to see the entire country. You pan around the map using your finger. George can get bogged down if you try to zoom or scroll too fast, but otherwise navigating around is simple and easy.
The "Screen Clean" widget is, bar none, the favorite widget among our kids. There's just something about that cute little dog licking the inside of the Chumby screen that never gets old. It is also slightly hypnotic. Hardly a day goes by without one or more of them grabbing George off of his perch and sitting down on the floor to watch the puppy for a few minutes.
The "Birthday Countdown" widget is simple yet fun. It features an animated birthday cake and a countdown showing the number of days left until the big day. As you get closer to the date, the cake gets bigger. I have a widget configured for myself, my wife, and one for each of our children. All of them reside in a special "Birthday" channel which cycles through one every thirty seconds. Since my birthday is coming up later this month, I've started leaving the Chumby displaying only the countdown to my birthday, just to give everyone a gentle reminder. :-)
Of all of the game widgets, "PuzzleBee" is my favorite. It's a simple jigsaw puzzle. The puzzles are fairly easy, only 20 pieces, but they are a fun diversion, and I've never had the same picture twice. A close runner up to my favorite game widget would be the Sudoku widget, but while I am almost always up for solving a quick jigsaw puzzle, I have to be "in the mood" for Sudoku.
The Fireplace widget is perfect for cold days. You can set it to display one of two fireplace fires. It's a simple widget, but like "Screen Clean" it has a slightly hypnotic quality that makes it relaxing to watch.
It would be a gross injustice to not mention at least one clock widget in a list of the best Chumby widgets. There are a _lot_ of clock widgets out there. "Clocks" is the largest group of widgets on the Chumby website. There are digital clocks, analog clocks, binary clocks, and clocks made from photos of people. My favorite of them is the "LED clock" widget.
Now that George is right about where I want him, I've started to think that maybe it's time to add a second Chumby to the family. The problem that I'm having more and more with George lately is that he is so useful at what he does I don't want to clutter him up with other things, or move him somewhere else, or experiment with him. In fact, if I tried to do any of those things, I would probably get in trouble with the rest of the family. He belongs in the kitchen doing what he is currently doing. His experimental days are basically over.
I'd like to set up the new Chumby as an office assistant that lives next to my computer. Something I can use as a photo viewer, a news/weather/sports reader, a webcam viewer, and to just experiment with.
I think I'll call her Gracie.

Chumby Unboxing
Can you send me the link for the Fireplace Widget
I can't find one that doesn't run using Flash and Chumby can use Flash.
If you can help, I'd be most grateful.

Cute drawings you have made

cool widgets
These are all cool widgets. I really like the weather and birthday widgets. Things like these make you experiment more on what widgets you would like to use. It's good that they have many widgets. Got to check some of them too!
Recipe book
I've finally addressed my need for a recipe book. Pretty simple in the end. Using either latex or ooffice (I did one template with each), I created a .pdf file with pdf links to move around in the document (from table of contents to recipes, and between pages in long recipes). Then used swftools and the following command:
pdf2swf -s framerate=12 -s insertstop recipes.pdf -o recipes.swf
which creates the flash applet. Great!
Maybe even I could learn to use the Chumby after reading what you can do with it.
I want one too
I went back and forth. I wanted one, changed my mind for a while, and now I want it again. I am particularly interested in the fact that a lot of mainstream media (CBS, among others) has partnered with them. Yet another encouraging example of open source in the mainstream.
I think I may have to just do it. I'll let you all know how having an alarm clock with Dave's top ten list improves my life. :)

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

If you already use virtualized infrastructure, you are well on your way to leveraging the power of the cloud. Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn't scale? In today's hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.

How to get to Kearney?
Kearney has a population of over 30,000 and is located in central Nebraska. It is west of Omaha and Lincoln, the two major cities in Nebraska. When you travel to Nebraska, you can fly into either Omaha, Lincoln, or you can fly directly to Kearney. It is most effective to fly directly into the Kearney Regional Airport on Great Lakes Airlines via the Denver, Colorado International Airport. If you fly directly into Kearney, UNK will arrange ground transportation for you to our campus at no cost (if you advise us of your arrival time). Travel to UNK via Lincoln or Omaha will result in added expenses and time delays due to the distance of travel to campus; possible overnight stays may be necessary to accommodate your flight time and bus schedule to travel to Kearney. Flying to the Kearney airport is the best solution. When you make inquiries for flying into Kearney, the Kearney airport code is EAR. Great Lakes Aviation Schedule Great Lakes Aviation Route Map
It takes three hours to drive to Kearney from Omaha, and two hours from Lincoln. You can travel from either city to Kearney by Eppley Express, a bus service that brings you from either airport directly to campus. If you are traveling by Eppley Express, please inform reservations that you are a new UNK International Student and need to be taken directly to campus. Remind the driver again when you depart and this will save you time waiting for a ride to the University from the motel (Country Inn Suites), where the bus regularly stops. Please try to arrange your travel so that you arrive during office hours, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Enclosed is a copy of the most recent schedule for Eppley Express from both Lincoln and Omaha. There is an additional $4 fee to bring you to the UNK campus. Please contact Eppley Express at (1-308-234-6066) or http://www.eppleyexpress.com to make a reservation.
If you need to stay overnight in Omaha or Lincoln in order to take the Eppley Express bus the next day, please make hotel reservations. In Omaha, we recommend that you stay at either the Airport Ramada Inn (1-402-342-5100), the Sleep Inn near the Airport (1-402-397-3700), or the Best Western Central on 72nd and Grover Streets (1-402-397-3700.) In Lincoln, we recommend that you stay at the Best Western Airport Inn (1-402-475-9541). These hotels have 24-hour shuttle service to and from the airport. The Eppley Express bus picks up passengers at these hotels and at the airport. Accommodations in Kearney can be assessed by visiting the web site: www.kearneycoc.org. Click on visitor information and then accommodations. This site lists the hotels and costs. Hotel costs are around $60 per night. You may get a less expensive rate if you mention that you are a student coming to UNK.

Just a simple quick explanation of attaching images to a post and making a gallery of it. When you're editing a post or page, you can upload media with the WordPress media upload function and set images into a post.
The WordPress gallery function will let you have it so that not only can you have thumbnails neat and tidy within your post but when clicking on them will send you to a gallery page that you can navigate from one to another. ComicPress already has this template inside of its theme and has been there since before CP 2.5, however not many people have actually used it.
When editing a post or page, the button to choose is this one:
This 'sun like' icon on the panel when editing a post or page allows the system to know that you are wanting to add this image to the particular gallery that is embedded on the post or page.
The next step is where you want the gallery to appear inside your post you place this short code:
[ gallery ]
NOTE: No spaces inside the brackets, spaces are there currently so it does not trigger.
Having the code [ gallery ] will tell the WordPress CMS to translate that out to the core gallery functions that are built into WordPress itself.
When you upload a picture into the post using the add to gallery button on the post, it will take a thumbnail image, that thumbnail image can be set width and height in the WordPress dashboards settings. In WordPress 3.0 its the wp-admin -> settings -> media panel and you can set 3 different sizes, the thumbnail, medium and large sizes. These are created automatically when you use the media uploader to upload your image.
If you want the gallery function to work properly so that it displays those images as part of the gallery, do *not* click the 'insert into post' button after uploading the media. It still will attach those pictures just not add them to the post. It will however add them to the [ gallery ] code where ever you place that.
Here are some pictures of my dad to show you.
Notice the above also included the other image that I have placed in this post to describe what button to place. One of the flaws of using the gallery function is that the controls of what goes into the gallery is not coherent enough to the average user to figure out. Going to the media library on your dashboard I did not find a place to add and remove images to a gallery that's attached to a post.
If you click on any pictures in the gallery I placed in this post, it will go to another page that will let you go back and forth in the gallery and allow your users to comment on each one if they like.
In my opinion I feel the Gallery function needs a better tree structure and items to determine what gets attached as a gallery and what is embedded into the post out of the gallery, however, for now this is what we have to work worth.
In the gallery itself after clicking on an image, you can have a plugin like lightbox to expand the image nicely on the screen if the image doesnt fit the width available properly.
Pablo uses it over at Wapsi Square for his Wapsi Girl Project. I have been trying to show David Willis how to use it for his cast page. Notice on their pages they have extra text and information on the particular images those can be set in the media library per the image you have associated with the page.

I was impressed by Pichot. Gobby around the ref all the time but so astute and aware, with Hernandez outside him who was brilliant.
I also thought Longo the No.8 had a great tournament.
But in the end the best team won, and England performed much better that anyone could have expected or predicted.
A mention for Fiji who were a joy to watch.

After advancing out the first round after a 0-0 tie with Portugal (on July 22) and 2-0 loss to a powerful Iranian team (on July 24), the U.S. team dropped consecutive games to the Ukraine and Brazil, before rebounding on Friday against Holland. Against the Ukraine on Tuesday, the U.S. faced a tough opponent (who appear headed to the final) failing to score in a 5-0 defeat.
On Thursday the U.S. took the field against Brazil, and actually grabbed a 1-0 lead in the second half before watchign the talented Brazilians rally for a 3-1 win. The lone U.S. goal came when after Eli Wolff took a pass down the right wing behind the Brazilian defense and slipped a ball into the middle of the field to Josh McKinney who eluded his defender and smashed a shot into the back of the net. The U.S. has not beaten Brazil since the 1996 Atlanta Paralympic Games, losing to the them in the 1998 World Championships and the 1999 Pan American Games.
A fifth-place showing by the U.S. could help the team earn valuable qualification points on the road to the next Paralympic Games in Athens 2004. The tournament in Nottingham, with 14 participants, is the largest CP soccer tournament to date. The seven-a-side teams play on a field with smaller dimensions under slightly modified FIFA Laws of the Game.

"My voice sounds "tinny" over headset"
2.5 starson by boilerman7Pros: It is comfortable, and when listening to phone calls or to music it has great sound. It also has long battery life.
Cons: My voice sounds like I am talking from a tin can
Summary: Due to a complaint from a friend of mine about the sound of my voice over the headset, I put the Altec Lansing 903 headset "through the paces".
I did one more test with the headset, I established a link between the 903, and my computer, so that I would be using my bluetooth headset for chat. As it turns out, the headset is just FINE. The problem is that the Blackberry 8330 has "issues" with the headset.
I listened to music from my Blackberry 8330 over the headset. While the music was not loud, the sounds was pretty good. I did notice about a half to 1 second delay from the time that I hit the pause button on the headset, and the time that it took for the music to actually start or stop.
I also placed calls out over the headset. I noticed that even though the bluetooth link was established between the 903 and the Blackberry, if I pressed the button on the phone to place a call, the call was not directed to the headset, but kept at the phone. Only when I pressed the button on the headset did the calls go to/from the headset. I never ran into this issue with a Jawbone.
The most disconcerting thing about the headset is the sound of my voice over the headset. To determine the true sound quality out of the headset, I called my answering service and sent an extended voice mail to myself while driving my car with the air conditioner at full blast. I drove at speeds from 0-60+ MPH. My voice was distorted and "tinny".
While I love the long talk / music time on the headset, I am bothered by how I sound to others since I need to be able to "present" myself well to others as a part of my business.

Hi Gina.
New York.
Sometimes it doesn't matter what "they" tell you. You keep that foot to the floor. You keep that gas pedal down and you go. You drive in a town at rush hour and steal glances of the water surrounding you. You think of swimming in it. You think of letting the water sink into your pores. Boats are parked in their everyday stations, pockets. It seems so industrial to me. Like, I could go anywhere on that thing. Like, "that boat was in IRAQ yesterday." Like I could do this every day if I had the money.
Like, maybe I don't need the money at all. So long as I never lose that drive; hunger.

In short: My 12th marathon to date and I think my fav.Date of review: June 15, 2010
In short: Can think of no better way I could have spent the day. Wonderful.Date of review: March 7, 2010
In full: Agree with most of before posts. My 3rd year and wow, what a change !! the organisation was non-existant. Horrendous bag drop, no markers...blah blah...all been said before. The one thing that struck me this year that I did not feel on past 2 years was the sheer volumn of runners !!! Way, way too congested through the streets..positively dangerous. Pedestrians all over the shop. Madness at times. Am very surprised someone wasn't hurt. Last year people moaned about no medals...this year pretty o.k. medals but the rest appears to have gone downhill.Date of review: February 24, 2010
In short: First marathon I've ever done when I couldn't decide to be sick or go to the loo !!In full: This was my first ultra. I'm local and know parts of the route...that helped as was able to visualise where I was. Was expecting mud, but boy, NOT like that !! It was incredible. I won't go on about the mud as we all saw it. What I took away from the day was the amazing friendliness of the other runners..being one of the few women the blokes were just great and supportive. Ran a long way near another woman runner from Salisbury - thx to her because she was brilliant. One of the hardest things I have EVER done and I have had 2 children !! Lovely people at the checkpoints - very friendly and chatty - thanks to them. A fantastic day out but not sure I would do another ultra that time of year....or maybe give me a few weeks and I might change my mind ! Was looking to complete in 5.30 and was only 10 mins out so can live with that. Fantastic, tough, friendly, uplifting event. Wanted a medal though !! Date of review: December 8, 2009
In full: Second time at Hellrunner. Great stuff. First time they have introduced first wave/second wave - I think for the more elite to go off without bunching up. I opted for second wave but would go first wave next year. There was no real control over who went where. No gap in first wave going off. I ended up at pretty much at the back and had to fight my way forward. I was under the impression there would be a gap and I was going to go near the front of second wave - not so. Still a brilliant race and I enjoyed it yet again. Date of review: November 16, 2009
In short: Dire weather but just made it more enjoyable as with others who really wanted to be there. Loved it.Date of review: November 1, 2009
In short: Ran with my new ro running brother and he loved it. me too - was my 69th race so have seen a few !!Date of review: October 4, 2009
In short: Brilliant - Beautiful - Bone busting - But I'll be Back !!Date of review: June 14, 2009
In short: I will be scrubbing the mud out of my finer and toe nails for weeks. Absolutely fantastic run. Just has to be done.Date of review: November 16, 2008

Corporate and Professional Development offers business and industry full job and task analysis services using the Turbo-DACUM (Develop A Curriculum) process. The Turbo-DACUM process was developed by Dr. Katherine Manley. The purpose of this comprehensive job and task analysis is to accurately establish baseline data to improve both the process and the product of the job through constant and continuous improvement.
The job analysis phase requires a panel composed of four to eight experienced and knowledgeable workers. The panel will brainstorm a list of job duty areas and tasks. Once the tasks are verified and sequenced by the panel, they are entered into a computer for task analysis and weighting.
The task analysis portion of the workshop is facilitated by entering details of the job as dictated by the panel.
Once the task analysis is created using the business / industry team, training programs and assessment tools can be developed from the information generated.
Companies such as the following have been served:

My best advice is that you should try to create some sort of deadline for yourself. Pitch an article and sell it to a magazine, or create a writers' group that will allow you to have assignments with due dates. You can also make a goal to post your writing on the Internet. For example, Kel Gratke in the Minneapolis office of BridgeWorks decided he would write and post a daily entertainment blog. The sheer pressure to get it done and make it sing every single day has forced to him to write on schedule and on a deadline. Meanwhile his writing just keeps getting better and better.

Great idea for the launch party. So happy for you, Rosslyn. Thanks for sharing with us.
Since I write medical suspense, I thought about having my first launch party in the ER, but decided against it. Probably just as well. - July 2, 2011 at 1:22 PM

Marsha, enjoy the holiday...I just bought the last ears of corn from our grocery store tonight. Whew.:-)
Carol - Thank you! It was a good decision for me to add a calico dress to my wardrobe--I would have sweltered in anything heavier.
Roxane, thanks! I'm afraid I did indeed come off the cloud. The second novel will do that to a writer. ;-) I hope your busy summer is full of fun and family. - July 3, 2011 at 10:05 PM

Series: "The Language of God" Book Club (4 entries)
The BioLogos Book Club discussion of Francis Collins' The Language of God.
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
The BioLogos Book Club discussion of Francis Collins' The Language of God.
All of you who do science, all of you who teach or research or you're involved in engineering or medicine or education, or biology or chemistry or physics—you are doing a noble thing. You are thinking God's thoughts after him. … You are obeying God's command given way back in Genesis to exercise dominion, to learn about, to be curious and discover and steward the earth.
The Psalmist is saying that when we walk outside and look up, the heavens are telling us two things about God: they tell us about his glory, and they tell us about what his hands can do.
Read today's News Roundup for BioLogos-curated collection of articles analyzing and commenting on last week's debate between Bill Nye and Ken Ham—as well as some Valentine's Day amusements.
Theological ideas about divine freedom and human reason were important reasons for adopting an intellectually modest, empirical approach to nature during the Scientific Revolution. The common picture of ongoing, inevitable conflict between science and religion is not only false, but perverse, for it prevents us from seeing the kinds of deep connections [between the two].
The affirmation of genuine chance and randomness in the universe does not rob the universe of meaning and purpose.
"All of a sudden, it was possible to grant a text deep authority (a 'high view of scripture' we say) while discounting neither our own experience, nor the historical experience of those writing, compiling, editing that same text. To put it differently, all of a sudden, history mattered—the history of the text itself, and the history of our interpretations of a text."
Ian Barbour died on Christmas Eve at the age of 90. He is credited by many to be the father of the contemporary academic discipline of science and religion.
If you're new to investigating the relationship between science and Christian faith, the Book Club is a great place to start the journey.
"I see BioLogos as an invaluable resource for parents who want to help their children grow as thoughtful, faithful Christians who make a real difference in today's world."
"We were (mostly) prepared for the academic arguments but not necessarily the thing many fear in this discussion: personal conflict."
With From the Dust, it was our goal to help Christians see the complexity of the issues raised by modern science, as well as help them to courageously engage with the theological conversations happening within the sphere of Christian culture today.
We need to hear stories from others who have wrestled with evolution and Christian faith. What arguments made them change their views on science? How did they hold fast to their relationship with God? The essays in this series will eventually comprise a book, provisionally titled, "Evolving: Evangelicals Reflect on Evolution."
Having won an ECF grant, Cara Wall-Scheffler, biological anthropologist at Seattle Pacific University, and I are now planning to host a group of 18 young Christian paleobiologists for a week-long seminar during late June, 2014. Our seminar will include guest lectures by scientists, historians, and pastors who all have an interest in discussing bridging faith and science 'gaps.'
Today we draw your attention to a couple of short term projects that have been completed and are now visible on our site: Our History and Small Group Resources.
There is no formula for generating beliefs in people. There are plenty of people with access to the same facts who end up believing different things. But for many Christians—like the ones I heard from this week—access to information about the position we call "evolutionary creation" could make a significant difference for reconciling science and Christian faith.
Critics of Christianity look to evolution to show how the emergence of human life on earth demanded enormous ruin and ravage, billions of years of apparent waste and futility, species extermination and organism road kill. Not only was the massive dying off rampant, it's mandatory too.
Zoologist Steve Roels shares a summary of his experiences listening and talking with the scientists in attendance at the Third World Summit on Evolution and also offers a reflective essay and poem about evolution, psalms of praise, Darwin, and the islands that so inspired him.

The biggest problem from my point of view is the near complete removal of slavery from the picture. Yes, I know they portray Martha the generally faithful house slave in Fredericksburg, but her character (who doesn't appear in the book) does not correspond to the current research on slavery. Indeed, given the centrality of slavery to southern society its nearly impossible to avoid notice of it in contemporary accounts by both Federals and Confederates. Yet, I don't believe there is a single reference to the Emancipation Proclamation or "contrabands" in the entire 3 hour film. Hope that helps. Mark |

San Francisco, Feb 3 2012: The San Francisco SPCA will be hosting the "Be Mine Valentine's Adopt-a-thon" February 10th - 12th. Jackson Galaxy, the host of Animal Planet's My Cat from Hell, will kick off the event at 1 p.m. on Friday at the SF SPCA Adoption Center. Planned Adopt-a-thon events include a SF SPCA cocktail party, animal behavior workshops, children's activities, tattoos, and much more.
Galaxy, the tattooed and bearded cat behaviorist, is known for combining traditional and off-the-wall techniques to solve behavior issues. Join us for this event and let him help you find the perfect match. "GalaxFees" (reduced adoption fees) will be in effect all weekend. Cats and dogs six months and older will be $10 on Friday, $11 on Saturday, and $12 on Sunday. On Friday from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m., Jackson will host a free cocktail party at the Adoption Center, where Ken Een from Frisco Tattoo will be offering animal-themed tattoos at discounted prices.
The Adopt-a-thon continues from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Saturday with lots of fun activities, including photo opportunities with Jackson, crafts for kids, Valentine's chocolates, and a puppy kissing booth. From 12 p.m. to 1:30 p.m., Jackson will hold his Cat Mojo Workshop. In this live presentation, Jackson will explain the history of human/cat relationships, help people understand how cats think, and offer solutions to common behavioral problems. Dr. Jeannine Berger, DVM, DACVB, will also host an animal behavior Q&A session from 3 p.m. – 4 p.m. From 3 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., Jackson will meet with potential adopters to help them find their perfect Valentine's Day match. All events are free and will take place at the SF SPCA Adoption Center, and there is no need to RSVP.

They are Stephie – pregnant, trying to make the right decisions for herself and those she cares about; Jason – Stephie's boyfriend, torn between his responsibility to Stephie and the baby and the promise of a college basketball career; Dontay – in foster care while his parents are in prison, feeling unwanted both inside and outside the system; Carmen – arrested on a DUI charge, waiting in a juvenile detention center for a judge to hear her case; Harris – disowned by his father after disclosing that he's gay, living in his car, and taking care of himself; Katie – angry at her mother's loyalty to an abusive stepfather, losing herself in long hours of work and school. Stretching the boundaries of traditional poetic forms – sestinas and sonnets – Helen Frost's extraordinary debut novel for young adults weaves together the stories of these seven teenagers as they courageously struggle to hold their lives together and overcome their difficulties. Keesha's House is a 2004 Bank Street - Best Children's Book of the Year.

Bluejacket (bloo-jak-it)
noun: An enlisted person in the United States or British navy; a sailor
"Chet Bright is a deep-diving, double-crimping, steely-eyed frogman,
a bare-knuckle fighter, sailor of sailors and the last of the ballroom dancers.
Be prepared to read an exciting adventure that leaves you with envy, laughter and sadness.
Thoroughly enjoyable. A must read for all."
Capt. James R. Lake, U.S. Navy (Retired)
EOD/UDT/SEAL, BUDS Class 55,
former commander of Explosive Ordnance Disposal Mobile Unit 3
and Naval School Explosive Ordnance Disposal
Chet Bright faced the prospect of death on the water many times – during World War II, Korea and Vietnam – but in the end the sea was his savior.
The son of a West Texas cowboy, he ran away at 17 to join the military after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor.
Aboard a destroyer during World War II, as a frogman with the Navy's elite Underwater Demolition Teams in Korea and later as an Explosive Ordnance Disposal expert, Bright found himself anchored to life on the water. It thrilled him and it scarred him, but he could not untether himself from the adventure it promised.
Bluejacket is the story of those adventures, from his time at war to his post-military years sailing the Caribbean in a boat built from a shell in his back yard.
He gave his life to the sea. In return, it gave him these memories.

White River Fly Shop® Fly/Spin Rod and Reel Combo
- Reversible handle
- Fly rod/spinning rod convertible
- Includes fly reel with backing, fly line and spinning reel
- Cordura® case
Rated 3.6 out of 5 by 17
Rated 4 out of 5 by Flyfisher640 Excellent way to travel
Packs in carry on luggage perfectly. Great for quick get away.
July 3, 2013
Rated 3 out of 5 by dboyd35 Mostly good value
Bought this spin/fly combo for a week long family vacation in the mountains. Gear looked to be decent quality for a bargain price. Things went well until I went to set the drag on the spinning reel. It would set to either about 1 pound or 6 pounds (estimate) with nothing in between. Since it came loaded with 6 lb line, you either had no control over the fish or is was dangerously close to breaking the line. Attempts to set the drag in between resulted in the drag self loosening.
Too bad, all the other components seemed decently well made and functioned well enough. Fix the drag on the spinning reel and this combo would be a winner.

Rated 3 out of 5 by bassfisherman56 Good Beginner Rod
this is a good rod for beginners. according to another user the rod snaps when casted and the spinning reel breaks in a week. NOT TRUE, i have used it for almost a year now and nothing has broken. very good quality for the price. in the picture it looks like a pretty strong rod, but notice they tell you its a 5/6 weight rod. it is hardely a 4 weight. you could probably reel in a 2.5 lb fish at most. i still use it but have only caught small one pounders. if you are a beginner or dont have much expierience get this rod, great price and its like two rods without the space or struggle, but if your a moderate or expert fly fisherman i would recommend going with a REAL 5/6 weight rod, especially if your fishing for bass like me.

Rated 4 out of 5 by BamaHunter12 Great Purchase
I've caught all kinds of fish on this rod but in the middle of your cast part of the rod flies off. also the spinning reel breaks within a week. but on the other hand the rod still works great and lasts a long time

The Cowboys announced yesterday that they fired defensive coordinator Rob Ryan after 2 seasons. As is the case when most guys are let go, there's at least been a discussion among Eagles fans about whether he would be a fit here?
He wouldn't be a fit here. This is not because he has a background in the 3-4 and the Eagles are set up to run a 4-3... no he wouldn't be a fit here for the same reason he wouldn't be a fit anywhere. He's not a particularly good coach.
Rob Ryan is the fraternal twin of Rex Ryan and the son of Buddy Ryan. The latter two are actually good defensive coaches with long track records of success. Rob got the Ryan name and the Ryan flair for the dramatic, but doesn't seem have to gotten the Ryan knack for defensive know-how.
However, probably because of his name and the fact that he's shown on TV gesturing wildly and cursing up a storm, there's a perception that Rob is actually a good coach. In reality, a quick look at his resume will clear that up. He has been the defensive coordinator for 3 NFL teams over the 9 seasons. Here is how his defenses have performed.
Rob Ryan's defensive track record | ||
Year | NFL rank (yardage) | NFL rank (points) |
Cowboys 2012 | 24 | 19 |
Cowboys 2011 | 16 | 14 |
Browns 2010 | 22 | 13 |
Browns 2009 | 31 | 21 |
Browns 2008 | 26 | 16 |
Raiders 2007 | 22 | 26 |
Raiders 2006 | 3 | 18 |
Raiders 2005 | 27 | 25 |
Raiders 2004 | 30 | 31 |
Average | 22 | 20 |
One thing to note here is that immediately after Ryan left Cleveland, the Browns defense improved to 5th points against and 10th in yards against.
On average, Ryan has performed at a below average level as a defensive coordinator. I've heard Cowboys fans make excuses for his 2012 performance because he had a lot injuries... That may be true, but what are the excuses for the other 8 seasons? And as Jimmy so astutely points out in his post on Rob's firing from Dallas, his defense plays dumb. His defense committed 9 personal fouls over the course of the final 7 games. Evidently his "fiery" demeanor doesn't translate to his team playing disciplined football.
Other than one seemingly flukey year in Oakland, he's never even managed a top 15 defense. You know what else Rob hasn't done? Jimmy?
In his 9 years as a defensive coordinator, none of Rob Ryan's teams have ever had a winning record.
— Jimmy Kempski (@Jimmy_Beast) January 9, 2013
And the best thing about Rob is how awesome he think he is despite all these bad defenses and losing that he's been a part of. When reached for comment about his dismissal yesterday, he told ESPN,
"I'll be out of work for like 5 minutes."
So now and in the future, if you ever hear or read someone advocating that Rob Ryan should come to the Eagles or any other franchise because he's a "good" defensive coordinator... Just show them this article.

LI firm finds niche in college campus tours

Many parents and students spend years saving and preparing for college, often one of the biggest, and most expensive, decisions they'll make. But students frequently visit only a few schools at the last minute. Judy Marrazzo, president of East Norwich-based GoCAMPUSing, saw an opportunity in that imbalance.

By Robert Frank, CNBC.com
Remember Gina Rinehart, the Australian billionaire who was recently called the richest woman in the world? Before that, she was mostly in the news for disparaging her children.
Gina Rinehart, chairwoman of Hancock Prospecting Pty. In a battle over the family trust, Ms. Rinehart said the kids "lacked the requisite capacity or skill, knowledge, experience, judgment or responsible work ethic" to manage the business and inheritance.
It turns out, it's not just mining billionaires who doubt their kids' money skills. A new study from U.S. Trust says that only half of millionaire baby boomers think it's important to leave money to their kids. A third of them said they would rather leave the money to charity rather than their kids.
There are two explanations for their stinginess.
The kind explanation is that today's boomers want their kids to grow up with the same middle-class values they had. They want their offspring to learn struggle and hard work and failure and the joys of earned success and all the other lessons that helped the boomers become successful (those, along with 30 years of bull markets and strong economic growth).
As Warren Buffett said, he wants leave his kids enough to do anything they want, but not so much that they can do nothing.
Aligned with this benevolent explanation is their commitment to charity and the broader world.
The second and perhaps more realistic explanation is that boomers don't think their kids can handle all that money. Only 32 percent of baby boomers are confident their children will be prepared emotionally and financially to receive a financial legacy.
Granted, not all generations feel this way. Gen-Xers and Gen-Yers, along with the generation older than the baby boomers, are more disposed to leave money to their kids. More than two thirds of those aged 18 to 46 and those over 67 say it's important to leave a financial inheritance to their children.
"Our survey points to a shift in generational behavior and outlook, most likely shaped by personal experience and societal responses to economic realities," said Keith Banks, president of U.S. Trust. "The next generation has not experienced the consistently strong economic growth or investment returns that baby boomers experienced during the longest bull market in history."
And there may be a third explanation: the baby boomers plan to spend most of their money. Given the low investment returns in today's markets, their long lifespan and their famously non-apologetic lifestyles, the boomers are probably burning through their fortunes at a rate that won't leave much for the next generation.
In the end, however, the phenomenon outlined in the survey boils down to a simple problem: The baby boomers have raised kids who are unequipped to inherit large amounts unearned wealth. The kids have been given most of what they want since childhood and have followed their parents model of generous spending. And the job market isn't exactly conducive to college grads making it on their own.
In the same survey last year, U.S. Trust found that half of multi-millionaire respondents said their children wouldn't reach a level of financial maturity to handle the family money until they are at least 35 years old.
Whose fault is all this? The parents, in part. Only half of the respondents had told their children about their family wealth. When asked why, they said the children would become lazy, make poor decisions, squander money or fall prey to golddiggers.
We can call it the Rinehart Paradox. Wealthy parents aren't raising kids to be good with wealth, so they refuse to leave them wealth.
In the end, the biggest losers here are the kids.
How much money will you leave your kids and why?
