Asana Column: Padmasana (Lotus Pose)
The movement of your right knee towards the floor should be accomplished by a deep rotation in the hip socket, not by sickling the ankle and torquing the knee. Go slowly, and never move further into Padmasana if you experience pain in your knees�they are very unforgiving joints once they are injured.
Most yoga students seem to think that Lotus requires them to rotate the thigh bone (femur) inside the fixed position of the pelvis. While this is not incorrect, moving the femur relative to the pelvis is less effective in the later stages of the posture than moving the pelvis around the femur. In each of the preparatory poses that follow, the pelvis is rotated around the fixed point of the femur, creating a deep release for the rotator muscles of the hip. When you have completed the entire preparatory series on one side (or as much of it as you can do safely), take a walk around and compare your legs. You may be very surprised at the dramatic difference in their mobility.
Ardha Baddha Padmottanasana
Stand in Tadasana (Mountain Pose) and gently draw your right leg up into Ardha Padmasana. Slowly bend forward over the standing leg, extending from the heel of the right foot high up into the groin. Using your hands on the floor for balance, adjust the hips so they are level with the floor. Consciously focus on releasing the femur of the Lotus leg downward with the help of gravity. As you do so, breathe deeply into your lower abdomen, allowing the pelvis to oscillate around the femur. Full breathing moves the pelvis and thus provides a deep internal massage to the hip joint. Stay for at least a minute, welcoming the sensations that arise. Then, without removing your leg from Lotus, slowly bend your standing leg. Use your hands for support as you transition into the next movement.
Bharadvajasana II
Carefully place the left knee, shin, and foot on the floor in a kneeling Virasana (Hero Pose). Your right leg will still be in Lotus. If your right knee is off the floor, place soft but firm support (a towel or rolled mat) under the knee. As you exhale, turn your belly towards the right, placing your left hand on the outside of your right thigh. Then, cup your right knee in your left palm so that the fingers point back toward your outer right hip. In this position you can gently draw the femur out of the socket as you turn into the twist. (This will create space and freedom in the hip joint.) Reach around and catch hold of the right foot with your right hand. If this is not possible, bring the right hand onto the floor behind you and use it as a support to keep the spine erect. As you inhale, focus on lengthening up through your spine; as you exhale, allow the torso to move more deeply into the twist. Because we're using the posture to prepare for Lotus, don't be concerned with doing your maximum twist. Instead, concentrate on drawing your right femur out of the socket as you release the right side of the pelvis back away from the femur. Breathe slowly and remain in the pose for at least a minute.

Hey I found another bug…on IE9 the header slider does not slide…the image does not change but the navigation bullets move, just not the slides themselves…my site is http://whosoever.us/
I will take a look ASAP
It happens if you choose "scroll" effect.. It will work on IE as well if you choose "fade" effect. This is relate to the flexslider script. I will let you know if I find a solution
is there a way to put a "follow us" section where people can subscribe? thanks so much, looks great!
Do you mean a newsletter form? There is no newsletter feature ATM
Hi, I have a question to the "show feature". if the City name is very long, there is no space between the city and venue in the table.http://christopherhinterhuber.com/?page_id=520
Is it also possible to add a description field under the venue? Many thanks
It is not possible to add a description a the moment. however I am working on improvements for the shows feature for the next update. I will add single pages for each shows/events where you will be able to display more details.
Hi, I am confused by the jPlay player, it looks different than on your demo. The thumbnail size is not 80×80 but 120×50 pix. If there is no song thumbnail, on iPhone and iPad default_poster.png apears but it is overlapped several times… I believe the jPlayer plugin shipped with the theme is not the same as on your demo. please see on mobile Safari (I have changed the thumbnail size manually): http://www.anitaandreismusic.com/release/smile-3
Did you change something in the CSS?
It looks like you mixed the jplayer logo (a main logo for each playlist, 120×60) and the song covers (optional artwork for each song – 80×80)
If you don't upload a cover for your song, the default pics with the note shows up.
In hope it will help
Another question concerning 'Shows': how can I increase the font size just for the shows page via css? Thanks for the support
Hi,In the theme options custom CSS box:
table.shows {font-size:18px}
It should do the trick
i just purchased this theme, but it will not install on my wordpress, i get this error:
The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.
please help asap!
ok i "compressed" the live folder, and installed it. just want to make sure it will still have everything, all the "bells and whistles" so to speak doing it this way. thank you so much
The usual way is to upload the "live" folder through FTP, but you can also compress it and install the theme through WP, No problem
hello i purchased this theme and in the "homepage header" i have a youtube video and the jplayer but they are stretched across the whole screen on top of eachother. i want it to look how it does on the demo site. Can you contact me on here or give me your support email and figure this out. I have another question also but this first question is very important. Still a great theme! thanks
Check the doc in the "home page" section. You will find the snippet to put in the "embed" box (theme options "home page" tab)

Larry Bloomstein, a 1996 Livingston High School graduate, and son of Linda and Richard Bloomstein of Livingston, and his infant daughter, Hailey, has been named the 2013 NJ Promise Walk for Preeclampsia Mission Family.
On Sunday, May 19, Bloomstein will lead the Promise Walk campaign by sharing his story and encouraging teams around the state to meet or exceed their fundraising goals.
Bloomstein's wife, Lauren, developed preeclampsia at the end of her pregnancy.
Preeclampsia is a condition where a pregnant woman develops high blood pressure and protein in the urine after the 20th week of pregnancy. In Lauren's case, the condition progressed rapidly into a severe variant known as HELLP syndrome.
Even after delivery, Lauren's blood pressure continued to rise to critically high levels, and just five hours later, the new mother suffered a fatal stroke.
"Traumatized, I had to leave the hospital to plan Lauren's funeral and figure out how to provide for the needs of a newborn," said Bloomstein.
While searching for answers, he found the Preeclampsia Foundation.
"I attended the 2012 Cranford, NJ Promise Walk with Hailey and was amazed to find that we were not alone," said Bloomstein.
While there, he heard numerous families sharing stories of delays in diagnosis. "I was saddened by the long-term effects preeclampsia had on both mother and baby, many of which could have been preventable with immediate care. I knew that I wanted to take action to help other women like Lauren."
"It is unacceptable that an average of two women die during childbirth each day in the U.S." said Bloomstein. "Together we are working to make all pregnant women aware of this condition, so they look for the early warning signs and make sure their health care providers can identify and take action early to save the lives of mom and baby."
Bloomstein will kick off the festivities and share his story at the 5K walk at Oak Ridge Park in Clark.

Routes Sorted
L to R R to L Alpha
This route climbs the chimney between the First and Second Buttresses on the north side of Hallett Peak. The bottom part of the route is relatively easy and can be covered quickly by simulclimbing. However once you get to the middle this is where the fun starts. From here on up to the top their are several steep sections requiring snow, ice, and mixed climbing techniques. In general, the crux moves involved climbing past the large chockstones wedged between the chimney walls. There are a couple of things to keep in mind when climbing this route. First, you are in a chimney which acts as a giant terrain trap for anything falling down from above. The later and warmer it gets during the day, the more stuff that falls. Second, there are several spots on this route which involve climbing through very dangerous sections of loose rock. Be careful of where you place your protection, and watch out for your partner below. Finally, depending on the condition the route is in crux sections may vary. In lean conditions, much more mixed climbing is involved.
This route is located on Hallett Peak above Emerald Lake and can be accessed from the Bear Lake trailhead in Rocky Mountain National Park.
Standard alpine rack: cams, nuts, screws, and pitons are helpful. Pickets are optional but could be useful in some sections. There is a lot of old fixed gear on this route some of it is solid and some of it is highly suspect. Be careful about what you decide to trust. There are fixed rap anchors, but be prepared to leave some gear behind as many of them could use some additional support.

FORT WORTH — In his four years at TCU, defensive end Stansly Maponga has seen lots of changes.
"Four years ago, the weight room we used to have and what we have now is state of the art, I mean, it's just incredible," Maponga said.
Recently, Maponga faced the toughest decision of his life. He had two options: Stay at TCU one more year, or make himself available for the NFL draft.
He chose to go pro.
"The whole family was behind me when I made that decision for me to get out," Maponga said. "It kind of took me a little longer than I thought it would just to make sure that I made the right decision for me and my family.
Maponga's decision hinged on two very important people in his life. The Carrollton Hebron product wants to provide a better life for his daughter, who is only four months old. He also wants to help his mother, Barbara Green, who brought him and four other siblings to the United States from southern Africa.
"Just watching her day in and day out and just watching her struggle," Maponga said. "Sometimes she'd get sick and sometimes she'd go to the hospital, and the doctors were telling her that she's working too hard. She needs to lay off a little bit. She's a hard-working woman, and she didn't care about her health; as long as we were living good, she was good, too."
Barbara Green has worked three jobs just to support her family.
"I always love working with people," Green said. She's working two jobs now and is also trying to better herself by attending classes at Brookhaven College to become a medical assistant.
"I like my job," Green said. "Taking care of patients, I just love it. Even if you become millionaires or billionaires, I'll still have to work. Even I work three days or two days, as long as I'm doing what I love. I love doing that."
"It was high time for me just to be like, 'Mom, you worked hard enough,'" Maponga said. "'It's time for you to just take a breather and I'll be able to take care of you from this point on.'"
Maponga is also a long way from his first home. He was born in Zimbabwe and came to the United States at the age of 9. It wasn't long before America's version of football caught his eye.
"Since seventh grade, I've been loving it," Maponga said. "Just loving the game, the violence. It takes my mind off stuff. It's just crazy, man."
"At first I never wanted to go watch him play, because when I see them bumping into each other, I'm like 'Oh my God, my stomach!'" Green said. "Most of the time I just look down. I make sure I go with one of my people so at least they'll be watching for me and I'll be asking them, 'How did he do?' They'll be like, 'He did very well. He did good. He did great,' so I think I'm getting used to it now."
How high Maponga will go in the NFL draft isn't clear. He was limited at the NFL Combine because he's still recovering from an injury sustained last fall, a bone fracture in his left foot.
"I don't feel any pain, but word around the league right now is that my bone is kind of soft right now and it might not break right now, but it might break later," Maponga said. "So I've got to set up an appointment with Dr. Anderson. There's going to be ups and downs, but you've just got to be thankful for being in this situation."
"They're supposed to put a screw in there," he added. "I didn't end up putting a screw in there because my bone healed perfectly, and it hasn't given me any issues."
Becoming a top 100 pick as a defensive end or a linebacker is certainly not out of the question, but because of the lingering injury, Maponga's stock has dropped.
"I'm not mad at them for that, but for me, I love proving people wrong," he said "People tell me I can't do this or I can't do that. It's been happening to me since I was in high school."
Maponga said he will return to TCU to finish his communications degree, but isn't sure how that degree will be used after football.
"You can do various stuff, maybe SportsCenter... you never know, we'll see," Maponga said.

Easily the most lovable of all time wanderers. 1 / 8 Marty McFly — Back to the Future What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 He taught the past how to rock 'n' roll, drives a smokin' DeLorean, and skateboards like he invented the X Games. Marty McFly of Back to the Future brought a major dose of cool to whatever time period he was in. 2 / 8 Quinn Mallory — Sliders What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Imagine Jerry O'Connell with even more luscious hair and the ability to smoothly "slide" to parallel dimensions, then you have his character Quinn Mallory from the sci-fi show Sliders. A physicist from California, Quinn invented a device to travel to parallel dimensions, exploring alternate histories and time periods. Catch up on season one and two immediately on Hulu for vintage O'Connell. Source: Getty 3 / 8 Time Traveler — The Time Machine What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The only name given to H.G. Wells's protagonist in The Time Machine was simply Time Traveller. He travels to different eras and regales us with his adventures at the dinner table. In the latest movie adaptation, however, he travels through time because of a broken heart. Guy Pierce can cry on my shoulder any day. 4 / 8 Colonel George Taylor — Planet of the Apes What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 He may have displayed a bit of human arrogance after crash-landing on a mystery planet, but it doesn't get much better than an astronaut in a loincloth, as seen here on Charlton Heston's character Colonel George Taylor in Planet of the Apes. 6 / 8 The Terminator — The Terminator What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Sure, the Terminator was a bad, bad man in the first installment, but he stole our hearts as he took on a father-figure-esque role to Eddie Furlong's John Connor in the sequel. "I'll be back," indeed. 6 / 8 Randall, Fidgit, Strutter, Og, Wally, and Vermin — Time Bandits What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 These six dwarfs are supposed to be working for the Supreme Being, but as their work of making trees and shrubs goes downhill, their sense of greed skyrockets. Troublemakers that they are, they drag poor little 11-year-old Kevin (who is totally being ignored by his gadget-obsessed parents) into a time-traveling hide-and-seek game with Evil. The last time I saw this was on Laserdisc, but it's worth a watch even now since — holler! — you can stream it instantly on Amazon. 7 / 8 Doctor Who — Doctor Who What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 As part of the Time Lord race, the Doctor is accustomed to traveling the vast expanses of space and time. In a time machine disguised as a police box, he defeats villains across the universe with a sonic screwdriver, bow tie, and quick wit. 8 / 8 0 3 11 0 0 Back to Homepage Comments Read More LooperSci-FiDoctor WhoTime TravelMovies Doctor Who Doctor Who Is Prim and Proper in New Season 8 Pictures 1 day ago Here's a NEW Doctor Who Season 8 Trailer For You 6 days ago Thanks For Nothing, Internet: Matt Smith Was at Comic-Con, and No One Told Us 3 weeks ago Geronimo! 25 Fantastic Examples of Doctor Who Cosplay 7/17 Dogs With Geek Costumes Way Better Than Yours 6/06 Something Blue: Doctor Who Wedding Inspiration 5/25 Sci-Fi Life Lessons From the Sci-Fi Books You Loved as a Kid 4 days ago Are You the Ultimate Science Fiction Master? 6/04 Geeky Inspiration For Wedding Vows and Readings 5/08 Outrageous Reads For Geek Girls 4/23 Neil deGrasse Tyson's Favorite Sci-Fi Movie of All Time 3/30 The Sci-Fi Movie Tech We Wish Was at CES 1/05 Get a Personalized Living Newsletter!

Siesta Key water service to be disrupted
Date: July 19, 2011
by: Robin Roy | City Editor
More than 1,400 Siesta Key customers could be affected by temporary water-service interruption Thursday.
Sarasota County utilities scheduled repairs to a water valve at Midnight Pass Road and Sarasea Circle. The work is expected to begin at 11 a.m.
About 320 customers will be without water for an estimated six hours, and an additional 1,100 customers south of Sanderling Road could experience low water pressure during that time.
A boil-water advisory will be issued after the water service is restored.
For more information, call Sarasota County at 861-5000.

Jimmy Cricket supporting Wilpshire children's charity
8:30pm Friday 30th November 2012 in News
A COMEDIAN will be supporting a children's charity based in Wilpshire this Christmas.
Irish comic Jimmy Cricket — famous for his "And there's more" catchphraise — is hosting a concert at the St Mary's Centre in Clitheroe in aid of Child Action Northwest, which has its headquarters at the former Blackburn orphanage.
The event is being held on December 14 to celebrate the charity's Founder's Day anniversary.
Producer Eric Nolan said: "The founder of the charity, James Dixon, put his life-savings into a bank account and £50 from a friend on this day, which for many years was celebrated with a Christmas party by the orphans.
"We've brought back the tradition of marking this date with a celebration of Christmas past and present using music and costumed readings, both humorous as well as serious.
"We are delighted that Jimmy has offered to support us in this way.
"He is a true family entertainer, the like of which you don't see much of these days.
"We're looking forward to bringing audiences a wide range of enjoyable festive music and song."
The show starts at 7.30pm and tickets, which cost £5 including coffee and mince pies, are available by calling 01200 425522 or 01254 244700 or by visiting www.canw.org.uk.

If you are in the market for a tonsillectomy and live in the Mitchell area, Avera Queen of Peace now offers a better option for that type of surgery. It's called the Coblator and Nancy Naeve Brown asked Ear, Nose and Throat Specialist Dr. Bill Graham to explain the equipment.
ENT Dr. Bill Graham with Avera Queen of Peace says, "This is the equipment. It's called the Coblator and it's a relatively new peace of equipment. Over the last 5 or 6 years it's been gaining popularity. It differs from the more traditional methods in that it is radio frequency generation that creates a plasma field that actually removes tissue without same amount of heat you'd typically have with more traditional methods of cauterizing. By causing less heat, it causes less damage to surrounding tissue which is shown to cause less pain and faster recovery, less narcotic use afterwards, a quick return to eating, drinking and normal lifestyle.
This is the active electrode. That is where radio frequency is generated saline is irrigated down on the outer sheath and runs over the tip of it as you are doing the procedure which helps keep it cool. But it is the saline that creates the plasma field that actually helps to dissolve the binds between the cells and allows tissue to be removed without really directly burning tissue.
The biggest difference is the recovery and pain. As far as a bleeding risk it's about the same."

Girl Scouts Honor Bellaire Community Leaders
Girl Scouts of San Jacinto Council (GSSJC) recently honored the following community partners: Harris County Hospital District, Bellaire Fire Department, Bellaire Optimist Club, Bellaire United Methodist Church, Pilgrim Lutheran Church and School, Horn Elementary, Condit Elementary School, Christ Presbyterian Church and Gifts with Heart.
Harris County Hospital District was awarded with a Certificate of Appreciation for offering career exploration and service opportunities. They have hosted GSSJC's Nursing Discovery Interest Project, which includes workshops that allow Girl Scouts to fulfill the career exploration requirement needed for earning the Girl Scout Gold Award.
Harris County Hospital District has long been a venue for troops searching for just the right service project. From toiletries for patients to blankets for babies and toddlers, troops can find a project that interests them and meets a community need.
The Bellaire Fire Department received a Laser Plaque for their support of local Girl Scouts. They give tours of their facility, teach first aid and explain emergency procedures to the girls. They also allow their firehouse to be used for extra storage during the Girl Scout Cookie Sale.
The Bellaire Optimist Club, also known as the "Horn Scout House," donates college scholarships for Gold Award recipients as well as provides a meeting place for the Daisy Girl Scouts through Senior Girl Scouts. They were awarded with the Walnut Plaque.
The Bellaire United Methodist Church received the Laser Plaque in appreciation of their efforts. A long time host of rallies, troop meetings and award ceremonies, the church and its friendly, flexible staff are true supporters of Girl Scouts.
The Pilgrim Lutheran Church and School has been awarded a Certificate of Appreciation for providing their facilities, including their football field, for a variety of programs. Recently the church played host to "Camp Ever Rock," an event for more than 100 Brownies and Juniors from the Ever Rock Service Unit.
Horn Elementary principal Sarah Harrington was presented a Certificate of Appreciation for her support to the Girl Scouts. She allows the EverRock Service Unit to hold rallies at the school and helps recruit volunteers to distribute informational flyers because of her belief in the importance of Girl Scouting.
Condit Elementary principal Fred Boyer was honored with a Certificate of Appreciation for welcoming Girl Scouts as well as promoting Girl Scout events. He also recently encouraged his students to help with a Girl Scout Gold Award project, where students learned about Veterans Day and made Thank You Cards for our country's veterans.
Christ Presbyterian Church was awarded a Certificate of Appreciation for providing Girl Scout troops a place to meet and to hold their rallies and bridging ceremonies free of charge. They have also invited troops to participate in service projects like food drives and unloading pumpkins for their annual Pumpkin Patch.
Gifts With Heart (GWH) was presented with a Certificate of Appreciation for their program, which allows Girl Scouts to make gifts for children in need. Gifts With Heart was established in 2004 to promote community involvement, and help create solutions for building a strong, united world.
Thanks to Gifts With Heart, Girl Scouts are increasing their skills and confidence by handcrafting toys and games with GWH partner Lowe's Home Improvement. GSSJC has even created a special program patch for Girl Scouts who participate.
Chartered by GSUSA to provide Girl Scouting locally, Girl Scouts of San Jacinto Council is one of the largest Girl Scout councils in the country serving over 63,000 girl members and 18,000 adults in 25 southeast Texas counties. For more information call 1-800-392-4340 or visit www.gssjc.org.
GSSJC Pluralism Statement
Embracing and promoting pluralism is an integral part of every activity and plan of Girl Scouts of San Jacinto Council, not disconnected or separate projects. Only individuals willing to accept and be educated about the basic tenet that Girl Scouting is for all girls may serve in volunteer leadership or staff positions.

A published report says a leading candidate to replace convicted Commissioner William Beavers on the Cook County Board has some ethics problems of his own.
The Chicago Sun-Times reported Wednesday that former state official Stanley Moore was fined $3,000 for campaigning during work hours when he was a deputy director of the Illinois Department of Transportation. The state's Executive Ethics Commission says he paid if off this week.
Cook County Democratic leaders are set to meet Thursday to choose a replacement for Beavers. He was convicted last month of tax evasion for not declaring campaign cash he gambled away as income. The law requires he resign his post.
Beavers' replacement will serve the rest of his term, which ends in December 2014.
Moore couldn't be reached for comment.

Higher Long-Term CD Rates at Apple Federal Credit Union - Easy Membership
We are starting to see some increases in long-term CD rates. The latest rate hike occurred at Apple Federal Credit Union which increased its 7-year and 10-year CD rates. Its 10-year CD rate is now 3.50% APY (was 3.25%), and its 7-year CD rate is now 3.00% APY (was 2.60%). Minimum deposit is $500, and these are also available as an IRA CD. The rates are listed in the credit union's rate table as of 2/18/2011.
One major downside with these long-term CDs is a very harsh early withdrawal penalty. According to the Apple's FAQ the penalty for terms greater than 60 months is:
the lesser of dividends earned since issuance or renewal or 1,095 days dividend.
That's 3 years of interest. As a comparison, PenFed's early withdrawal penalty for terms over 5 years is one year of interest. Like PenFed, they don't eat into your principal. So if the early withdrawal is at year one, you'll just lose one year of interest.
There's just over one week left on Apple's special 14-month IRA CD. I reviewed this special in my January Apple Federal Credit Union special IRA post.
Credit union membership is open to members of Northern Virginia Athletic Directors, Administrators, and Coaches Association (NVADACA). NVADACA is listed in the credit union's field of membership list. Membership into NVADACA is open to anyone. There is a $20 membership fee. For more ways to be eligible to join Apple FCU, please refer to the credit union's Membership Page. Membership requires a minimum balance of $5 in the regular savings account.
Apple FCU is located in Fairfax, Virginia and has additional branches in Centreville, Falls Church, Herndon, Manassas, Alexandria, Springfield, Stafford, Winchester, Woodbridge and Washington, DC.
Apple FCU is a sizable credit union with $1.29 billion in assets. It has an overall health score at DepositAccounts.com of 4 out of 5 with a Texas Ratio of 6.40% (excellent) based on September 2010 data. Please refer to our financial overview of Apple Federal Credit Union for more details. The credit union is federally insured by the NCUA (Charter # 11307). Searching for the Best CD Rates

Two paramedics hurt as 4 vehicles crash in fog on A13 (From Echo)

Sadlers Farm crash on A13 leaves two paramedics in hospital
Updated 12:34pm Friday 24th January 2014 in News By Chloe Chapman
TWO paramedics were taken to hospital after their ambulance was written off in a four-vehicle smash.
Three cars ploughed into the side of the private ambulance, belonging to Abacus, because of heavy fog in the early hours of yesterday morning.
Paramedics Nadia Georgiou, 35, and Andre Tyburski, 38, were at Sadlers Farm roundabout, Benfleet, making their way off the A13 on to the A130 when the collision happened at about 1am.
They were both taken to Southend Hospital for treatment after suffering whiplash.
The pair were discharged and are recovering at home, but are not due to return to work for some time.
John Evans, director of Abacus Ambulance Service based in St Luke's Road, Southend, saw the aftermath of the crash, but did not realise his staff and one of his ambulances were involved until he received a phone call.
He explained: "I had just been out to a show in London and was on my way back down the A13. There was a little bit of fog first of all and then it got worse until all of a sudden you couldn't see anything at all.
"I slowed right down and as I went under the A130 bridge. I saw lots of flashing lights and then the phone went and it wasNadia saying they had been involved in a crash.
"I could tell straight away how shaken up she was.
"The ambulance is completely smashed to pieces. Losing one of the vehicles is really going to hit us hard, but I guess it could have been a lot worse."
Abacus Ambulance Service provides specialist transport for private healthcare providers.
The company has ten vehicles – six of which are fully-equipped ambulances.
Mrs Georgiou's husband George, of Somerset Avenue, Westcliff, said: "Nadia is really shaken up. She won't be going back to work for some time.
She was in quite a bad way because the cars went into the passenger side where she was sitting.
"Luckily they weren't heading out on a job, or else that could have caused some serious problems.
"They had just finished their shift and were about to head home when the crash happened."

Approval of Minutes
Bob Garrity read for approval, Dave Lott Motioned to approve, Tim McMahon seconded, approved unanimously.

Doug Clark motioned to approve, Tim McMahon seconded the approval, and all were in favor, approved unanimously.
Approval of Graduate Survey and Employer Survey
Doug Clark motioned to approve, Chris Reber seconded the approval taking under advisement, and all were in favor, approved unanimously.
Bill Hallock noted that the survey will be intended to go out every 2 years.
How will the surveys be used? What types of actions will be taken from the results? (Dave Lott)
The surveys will be used to figure out if we have the right 11 courses and to find what is valuable to their current job or future job. The main objective is to fund the right mix of general education courses. (Bill Hallock)
Feedback helps to show were additional research is needed to find the best mix. (Chris Reber)
Where does feedback come from the technical side? (Lance Hummer)
As we grow with the program some sort of evaluation will be created for each technical area to survey graduates. (Bill Hallock)
NAIT Accreditation-Site Visit (Bill Hallock)
• NAIT is making name change to expand their resources
• Approval Process- Site team visit- final approval at National Convention in Kentucky
• Process of working with technical partners to meet standards (60).
• Site chair seems happy with what we have done
• April 20-21st- site team visit. Will be visiting & tour partner sites
• All courses reviews, textbooks, coursework, etc.
• Luncheon with Advisory Board to meet with current & past students as well advisory board members.
• Upon exit interview after team visit their will be a recommendation for accreditation
• May recommend for 2-year review
• Accreditation will allow the department to show a standard and validate programs.
• Finished copies of the self-study will be bound later today and sent out.
Review of Survey (Bill Hallock)
• Bachelor degree completion- 93% responded Yes
• This information helps when talking to students who may want to continue on.
• Gives more accurate idea of possible wages/promotions with advanced education.
• Varies upon industry.
• Most companies do give tuition assistance.
Question #7 is the meat of what we are looking for. Finding what employers are looking for in graduates. Most were industry specific with a combination of business and management style courses. Also certifications were highly important and there is a possibility to look into offering specialized certifications on a rotating basis. (Bill Hallock)
There is a lot of need for HR type certification. It is very important to have those skills to move up the ladder. (Bob Garrity)
A small percentage of linemen move out of that roll because of the pay, but those who do come out of that roll need a lot of help in the management and business area. It would be beneficial to have a Bachelor degree in that scenario and have more general and business courses. (Scott Wyman)
What would be available to associate degree students to customize in their area? (Bob Garrity)
A second follow up survey to show what courses available- partners/employers can see which would be most suitable and viable for their needs. (Bill Hallock)
Industry specific representatives could lead to what types of courses are needed. (Lance Hummer)
Depending on the job, there are specific things that they need to be proficient with. Not dependent on associate or bachelor but their technical skills. They also need to have people skills + working with teams + soft skills. (Doug Clark)
Not everyone has people skills. Their can be some sort of assessment done to assess the soft skills of the students. (Rod Griffin)
During hands on testing of technical skills, current employees facilitate testing to evaluate candidates by their communication skills and their personal actions during the tech. test. (Kyle Herron)
There could be a capstone test to give students a feel for these assessments and tools. This could be integrated into the INDT 298 course. (Bill Hallock)
Personality tests vs. psychology tests, personality strengths seem to be more beneficial as a predictor. (Lance Hummer)
Line supervisors are not required to hold a degree but they are required to have and understand all the job requirements as well as business and communication ability. (Scott Wyman)
Degree will be completely online. This will be much more flexible and cheaper than attending classes on campus. The University as a whole is growing online to keep students pursuing higher degree levels. (Bill Hallock)
The associate degree is based on a partnership model. The Bachelor will be a continuation that works with employer's schedule. Building in a dynamic way to allow students to work at their own pace. (Chris Reber)
The curriculum plan has to be presented and approved in the fall and can start the following fall (projected for 2010). This will likely be offered on a part time basis, any comments are welcome to help in developing this. (Bill Hallock)
Open House/ Summer Camp- Career Awareness
How would be best to approach this? We would like to do something this/next summer, concept wise would a summer camp be best? (Bill Hallock)
The second Allied Health Career Camp is coming this summer. For the long term it would be recruitment from HS students. During the Allied Heath Camp, students stay in the apartments for one week during the summer and attend different activities and meetings daily with professionals. (Chris Reber)
A camp like this could allow students to do visits with technical partners (Bill Hallock).
There are some opportunities for students to work and get paid. (Lance Hummer)
Exposing students to different areas each day, each day could be a different technical area or job. (Susan Hileman)
The Non-Traditional girl's career day exposed them to show the realistic possibilities for women to have these types of jobs. (Bill Hallock)
There could be a day camp for surrounding HS's and they could tour our local facilities. (Lance Hummer)
Some guidance counselors don't really guide students towards these opportunities and are very college oriented. Others are very on board with non traditional programs. Summer could be the time to get a more captive audience as opposed to during the school day. Also summer visits can be better planned. (Bill Hallock)
Encouraging the option of allowing them to stay over night- gains a good experience. (Susan Hileman)
Yes, students get the feel for the student experience. (Chris Reber)
We will have 88 apartments available after the new buildings open. (Bill Hallock)
Several industry partners are looking to do a variety of career awareness activities, and this is an opportunity to show a variety of careers. (Bill Hallock)
A lot of industries are interested in hosting these types of things. The main question for most is the availability of funding.
School to work partnership ended when the money ran out and people were pulled from the project.
Warren County continued on and funded their events themselves. (Lance Hummer)
Expenses are mostly with busing, food and apartments. The possibility of doing a week long event will be explored for summer but if not possible a shortened version could be held. (Bill Hallock)
HS's could be asked to add this as a student or graduation requirement of some sort. (Lance Hummer)
Other Notes
Battle Bots is coming in April. This would be a great opportunity to do a booth as they have a huge turn out at these events. (Susan Hileman)
Also we need to keep in mind that a lot of people do not want to leave the NW PA area to find jobs. It is important to stay relevant to our local industries.
Next meeting- Fall 2009
Motion to Adjourn 9 a.m.
Motion to adjourn was made by Bob Garrity, All were in favor.

Halloween does not deserve to be called a holiday. "Holiday" means "holy day," but Halloween does not fit this definition. It has deteriorated into a candy fest and a costume-celebrating commercial event, an excuse for money-hungry marketers to sell over three billion dollars worth of merchandise every year.
Halloween began as the ancient Celtic festival Samhain, pronounced sow-en and meaning "summer's end." Samhain marked the Celtic new year and was celebrated on October 31. It was believed that on this day the souls of the dead wandered the earth looking for bodies to possess for the coming year. The priest would light a bonfire in the middle of the village to thank the sun god for the harvest and to repel the evil spirits. The villagers would then proceed from their homes to the bonfire, dressing as monsters and being as destructive as they could in order to ward off the spirits.
In the early 600's, Pope Boniface IV was trying to spread Christianity to pagan people. Since he could not stop them from celebrating Samhain, he put a Christian spin on it by moving All Saints Day (a.k.a. "All Hallow's") from November 2 to November 1. October 31 then was referred to as "All Hallow's Eve," which has become our "Halloween."
Today, Halloween makes us think of costumes and candy more than its pagan and Christian roots. The typical buyer is projected by the National Retail Federation to spend almost $50 on Halloween decorations, candy, and costumes. It has degenerated into nothing more than a commercial event: just an excuse to buy stuff in-between real holidays.

Is it common to say like this "because you're a famoous celebrity"? I think "The reson why you're a famous.." would be better.
16)Just because you're a famoous celebrity doesn't mean you can't take the time to help people in need...
Okay, "the reason why" doesn't fit, but according to typical grammar, an adverb clause can't be a subject, you know. I think this is an out-of-grammar example.


text: The Winona County Sheriff's Departments says a level three sex offender will be released from prison next Tuesday, November 19th, and will take up residence near Minnesota City. Chief Deputy Ron Ganrude said 34-year-old Joseph Charles Zacher will be living in a residence in the 25-thousand block along Highway 248. Zacher has a history of sexual contact with female victims ages 12 and 13 according to the Minnesota Department of Corrections. One victim he met at a social gathering prior to an assault. He was also convicted of entering another victim's residence without permission and was not known to the second victim. Under state statute, law enforcement agencies are required to issue community alerts when level three sex offenders take up residence their jurisdictions. Level Three offenders are deemed by the Department of Corrections as most likely to reoffend. Zacher is not wanted by the police and has served his sentence.

Most Minnesota students will be heading back to school on Tuesday, and that meant a lot of stores were swarmed with last-minute shoppers on Labor Day.
Many procrastinating parents spent at least part of the holiday picking up protractors and pencils, while others who forgot an item or two rushed to make sure their kids would have fully-stocked book bags for the new school year.
The National Retail Federation says the average parent will spend $688 on school supplies this year, which is up about $85 from last year.
Despite low consumer confidence, some stores are cashing in on the school shopping season. The Limited said store sales went up 8 percent last month, and Costco's sales jumped 6 percent. Both companies beat their projected expectations.

The stuttering servant
By SAMUEL DAVIDKIN
04/22/2012 22:12
Because Moses himself likely stuttered, the story of Moses may hold a key to the origins of stuttering.

This article was first published by Jewish Ideas Daily (
) and is reprinted with permission.
Stuttering, the curious speech impediment that causes a few percent of the mostly male population to succumb unpredictably and unwillingly to occasional muteness, most recently received attention with the Oscar-winning film The King's Speech, the story of Britain's wartime King George VI.
The discussion engendered by the film reminds us that the origin of stuttering remains mysterious. None of the purely physical theories – involving brain function, genes or speaking technique – has yielded a clear explanation. Psychoanalytic theory offers more interesting clues: It observes that stuttering often begins after an early childhood event, and it builds on the general observation that most stutterers do not stutter when they speak alone.
These observations are particularly interesting from the Jewish perspective, because Moses himself likely stuttered. Indeed, the story of Moses may hold a key to the origins of stuttering.
First, though, was Moses a stutterer at all? In the first weekly Torah portion of Exodus, God speaks to Moses at the burning bush after his flight from Egypt, announcing that He will liberate the Israelite slaves and instructing Moses to return to Egypt to lead the mission. Moses is reluctant to accept, and from Moses's own mouth we hear the reason for his reluctance: He is kaved peh, heavy of mouth. God seems to acknowledge the impediment, assuring Moses that He "will be with your mouth and teach you what to say."
Moses begs God to send someone else; God is angry but finally agrees to send Moses's brother Aaron with him as his spokesman in Egypt. Aaron performs this function until, toward the end of the Torah, Moses gains a stunning eloquence.
Still, how do we know that Moses's speech impediment was stuttering and not something else? There are differences of opinion from the earliest commentaries.
Some say Moses had acquired a foreign dialect after his many years in Midian. Others say he felt his older brother Aaron merited the position. But stuttering is the most credible candidate.
Rashi says that kaved peh approximates the verb balbe in Old French, "to stutter."
Also, the common Hebrew word for "stutter" is the onomatopoeic gimgum. Recall Moses's plea to God at the burning bush: "I am not a man of words, not since yesterday, nor since the day before yesterday, nor since You first spoke to Your servant, for I am heavy of mouth and heavy of speech."
In Hebrew, "not," "nor" and "nor since" are all the word gam (also). Moses is saying gam... gam... gam – very like gimgum.
Samson Raphael Hirsch, the 19th-century German rabbi renowned for his etymological mastery of the Hebrew language, explicitly refers to Moses as a stutterer.
Of Moses's protestation that he is orel sfatayim, "uncircumcised of the lips," Hirsch says that in the Torah's nomenclature, orel (uncircumcised) means "unpliant," referring to "one who has no control over the faculty with which he is naturally endowed."
This is a perfect description of stuttering: There is no physical impediment or injury but, at times, an insurmountable lack of control. "Moses is saying," explains Hirsch, "'Even if I overcome the clumsiness of my vocal organs, I still lack the actual power of speech, the right words fail me.'" Indeed, one might ask whether God would have appointed Moses as His emissary if Moses had suffered from a physical malformation, since stringent provisions in the Torah make persons with such physical defects ineligible for important tasks of Divine service.
THERE IS one more clue: The second weekly Torah portion of Exodus tells us that when Moses spoke to the Israelites, they did not heed him "because of shortness of breath and hard work."
Commentators have said that the phrase refers to the condition of the overworked Israelite slaves, but it may just as well refer to Moses. For a stutterer, speaking before a multitude is hard work; the effort to finish one's words typically leads precisely to a shortness of breath. Perhaps the Israelites lost patience and faith as they watched Moses desperately struggling to get words out of his mouth.
If, indeed, Moses was likely a stutterer, we must return to the question of origin: How did it start? The rabbis of the midrash were not unaware that stuttering usually begins after some childhood incident.
As recounted in Bialik and Ravnitzky's Book of Legends, the midrash says Moses was so handsome that "whoever saw him could not turn his eyes away from him."
Young Moses "used to grab Pharaoh's crown and put it on his own head." Court magicians prophesied that Moses would usurp Pharaoh's power, and some counseled killing him: But Jethro (the priest of Midian and Moses' future father-in-law), who sat among them, said, "This child has yet no understanding. Why not test him? Place before him a vessel with a gold piece and a burning coal in it. If he reaches for the gold, he has understanding, and you may slay him. But if he reaches for the coal, he has no understanding, and a sentence of death is not called for."
The items were presented to Moses, who reached for the gold; but the angel Gabriel shoved the child's hand aside, "so that Moses not only seized the coal but also put the hand with the coal into his mouth and burned his tongue. As a result, he became slow of speech and slow of tongue."
So, it seems there was a definite starting point to Moses' stutter. But should we take the midrash literally when it says Moses burned his tongue, causing a physical impediment? Probably not. Midrashim are often allegorical, alluding to something that may not be immediately apparent. Here, it is deceptively easy to imagine that Moses, his hand shoved away from the gold, would seize the coal; it is easy to envision small children putting things in their mouths.
But the angel merely shoved Moses' hand away from the gold; why did the child grab the coal? And why would he put not just his hand but the hot coal in his mouth? Hadn't the coal already burned his hand? Aren't we hard-wired to drop a coal that is burning hot? We must view the result as somehow self-inflicted, with a degree of intention. What we may have here is a protest, an affirmation of self-control after such control was momentarily lost with the angel's shove.
Moses did something that the benevolent angel could not have intended. He asserted his self-control in the most unassailable way possible, although it meant grievously wounding himself.
If this is the case, we are faced with another fundamental question: Why does a wound that is not physical persist into adulthood? A person changes profoundly between three years old and 80 (the age at which, according to tradition, Moses spoke to Pharaoh); why does the susceptibility endure? It must be that the first manifestation of a stutter is not a culminating result of some underlying cause, like a trauma, with the rest of one's stuttering life a residue, but rather a humble beginning. The child experiences something for the first time; that something is a theme that stays and grows with him and is, perhaps, never undone.
In Moses's case, of course, it seems to have been undone. That, too, is far from explained.

Darlington reach thousand mark
3:59pm Friday 8th February 2013 in Darlington FC News By Craig Stoddart, Deputy Sports Editor
Darlington have around 300 tickets available for next week's top-of-the-table clash with Spennymoor Town.
Quakers yesterday broke through the 1,000 barrier, while Moors have also sold a similar number of tickets for a game which is heading for a sell-out.
The all-ticket affair takes place at the Brewery Field on Friday, February 15 (7.45pm).
Tickets cost £6 for adults, and £3 for concessions (Over 65s and under 16s). Disabled supporters or those persons requiring a seat are requested to contact Spennymoor Town direct by telephoning 078712-06474.
Tickets are also available from Quakers' club's shop at the indoor market.
Opening times are: Monday 10am-1pm; Tuesday 10am-2pm; Wednesday 1.30pm-4pm; Thursday 10am-2pm; Friday 10am-1pm; Saturday 8am-noon.
Holders of Northern League white passes are reminded that - under local authority regulations - they must apply to Spennymoor for a ticket in advance. White passes will not be valid.
Darlington are at Hebburn tomorrow (3pm) and looking to complete a quickfire double having defeated them 1-0 on Wednesday evening.

A "January thaw" is moving in, according to the meteorologists at WHDH-TV.
"Our annual January Thaw is upon us for the next several days," Ch. 7 meteorologist Jeremy Reiner posted in his blog on Tuesday.
For the past three days, the entire staff of the Ch. 7 "Weather Center" has been blogging about the mild temperatures.
Typically, the January thaw happens between Jan. 20-26 and is happening slightly earlier than usual this year, Reiner said.
But it will be a thaw in what has already been a mild winter. Meteorologist Pete Bouchard said there have been only 9 days with below normal temperatures since the meteorological start to winter on Dec. 1.
The National Weather Service forecasts that high temperatures in Danvers will be in the 40s through Saturday, with the temperature getting into the 50s on Sunday. The temperatures will again get into the 40s through at least Tuesday, the weather service said.
An even longer term forecast from Accuweather says that while temperatures will remain mild through mid-week next week, by next Friday, Jan. 18, temperatures will drop below freezing and will actually start a streak of below normal temperatures.

TOLEDO, OH (WTOL) - Shoppers may see an extra fee on their receipts at some area retailers. Effective Sunday, swiping your credit card at stores could come with a new charge.
It's all a part of a settlement between Visa, MasterCard, and nine banks. Merchants can now pass on the fees credit card companies charge them and instead charge customers who use credit cards up to three percent more on their purchase.
Big chain stores, such as WalMart,Target, and Sears have already announced they are not going to charge their customers a surcharge.
In a statement, a WalMart spokesperson said, ""We are not interested in surcharging customers in order to allow credit card companies to continue charging unfair fees. The proposed modification to the no-surcharging rule for Visa and MasterCard provides no benefit to customers or merchants such as WalMart."
Analysts expect small retailers, such as mom and pop shops, to take advantage of the added surcharge.
However, Danial Ballut, the owner of "Hot Kixx" on Monroe Street in Toledo, says he believes it is unreasonable to pass credit card fees along to his customers.
"It's already tough on our customers, and the economy is pretty bad, so we want to be fair," said Ballut. "Our company charges us about three percent, but to pass it onto our customers...I don't think that would be fair for them."
If a business does decide to charge customers an added surcharge, Visa and MasterCard require the retailer to post a notice at the store's entrance and print the exact percentage of the surcharge on the receipt.

College of Business : Scholarship Detail : United Negro College Fund List of UNCF Scholarships (multiple scholarships)
The UNCF offers hundreds of scholarship and grant programs administered by the United Negro College Fund. You will have access to both UNCF SCHOLARSHIPS and scholarships administered by many other organizations. This site allows you to APPLY ONLINE for a number of the UNCF scholarships.
If you are a student attending a UNCF member college or university, it is highly recommended that you also complete the UNCF GENERAL SCHOLARSHIP application. This application process nominates a UNCF student searching for scholarship assistance. Once a student completes the application, the information will be used to match you to many of the specific programs administered by UNCF. The General application, however, does not apply to scholarship programs that require a separate application.
