The Clearwater Police Department says charges have been filed on the woman who hit an officer Friday afternoon with her SUV.
Police say 24-year-old Nicole Syphers has been charged with Aggravated Battery on a Law Enforcement Officer, Aggravated Assault on a Law Enforcement Officer, Leaving the Scene of a Crash with Property Damage, Reckless Driving, Fleeing and Eluding and Driving While License Suspended or Revoked
Police say Officer Darcy Hunt was injured when she was hit by a SUV driven by Syphers.
Police say Officer Hunt was released from Morton Plant Hospital, Friday night after being treated for injuries.
Clearwater Police Public Information Officer Rob Shaw said the incident began just before 1 p.m. on Friday when police responded to a report of a hit & run accident at Lakeview Road and Highland Avenue.
Police say they spotted the suspect vehicle a short time later at Court Street and Hillcrest Avenue. Three officers tried stopping the car in the parking lot of a CPA office on Court Street.
Police says Syphers accelerated toward the Hunt, striking her in the leg. CPD says Hunt and Cpl. Steve Squillante fired their weapons at Syphers.
They say Syphers drove her SUV over a short wall, blowing out all four tires in the process. She continued to drive north on Hillcrest and was taken into custody a couple of blocks from where Hunt was struck.
Charges will be filled against Syphers and they are expected to be announced later Friday.
Police say Officer Hunt has been with CPD since July 25, 2005. Cpl. Squillante has been with CPD since February 16, 1995. Shaw said both have been placed on paid administrative leave while the incident is investigated.

Wendie Dreves sued Hudson News saying the franchise at the Burlington Airport replaced her with a younger, less experienced man and paid him more money to do the same job.
Federal Judge William Sessions ruled in Dreves' favor last week. Sessions rejected Hudson News' claims that Dreves' replacement was able to negotiate a higher salary and that it was justified as an incentive to get him to move to the area to take the job.
The Vermont Commission on Women's Executive Director Cary Brown explains how people can tell if this same is happening in their work place.

Tuition costs have been on the rise. This is likely not news to you but it's still having a large impact on not only our future generations but also our current economy. According to Mary Kane at Citi, student loan debt makes up nearly a third of all non-mortgage debt in the United States, approximately $1 trillion in total.
From 2002 through 2012, the Higher Education Price Index, which measures the cost of obtaining a college degree, has risen 35 percent; while the Consumer Price Index, a common measure of inflation, during the same time period has gone up just 25 percent. Without serious changes enacted by Congress, it is unlikely we see any substantial transform to the rising tuition trend. The Council on Foreign Relations reported that while the U.S. spends more money than any other developed country on K-12 public education, our students ranked 14th in reading and 25th in math based on the 2009 Program for International Student Assessment survey. Something is broken here and we can't expect future generations to be able to compete on the global stage unless the education system is fixed. However, one of the things that can be changed is who teaches our children.
Simply improving the quality of the educator has a significant material impact on students. Eric Hanushek of the NBER published a study in 2010 that showed by having a teacher who is above average could improve a student's lifetime earnings by nearly $400,000. Hanushek also noted that in order to determine the success of a teacher, our school systems must better evaluate the quality of our educators. Unfortunately, current assessment techniques as well as ambiguity in educational policy, according to Hanushek's research, have not been up to par to effectively accomplish this deferential of teacher performance.
There has been and there will always be those who try to 'game' the system. This was one of the faults of No Child Left Behind. When teachers' compensation is tied to standardized testing scores of their students it's unrealistic to assume there wouldn't be cases of teacher-assisted cheating. The problem we face today is like changing a tire on a car that's still on the road; we must fix the quality of education our children are receiving while they are receiving it.

I am stressed out! I'm moving to a new apartment tomorrow and ever since I packed up my kitchen more than a week ago, my eating habits have been a crapshoot.
I used the excuse of being in the midst of packing to keep from weighing myself for the past couple of weeks, but, I bit the bullet this morning and was pleasantly surprised that I had not, in fact, gained the 10 pounds I was expecting to see reflected on the scale. I hadn't lost anything either. But, right now, staying where I am is just fine.
I've felt like I've been in a bit of a holding pattern as I've prepared for this move. "I can't wait to be in the new apartment… I'll cook all the time," I tell myself. "I'll be eating so much more healthfully after I move," I promise. "I'll start going to the gym again once I'm settled," I say over and over.
Of course, next week I'm sure I'll still be in the "settling in" phase. The real test will be where I am two weeks from now!

- Summary
- Specifications
- Features
- Game Editions
Ninja Gaiden 3 offers for the first time a look at the world through Hayabusa's eyes, showing what drives him to fight, and kill. At the center of the conflict this time around is a masked man whose motivations and goals are unclear. Through mysterious powers, he changes Hayabusa – and the lines between hero and villain, good and evil, are blurred forever.
Featuring a new story, new gameplay and new modes, Ninja Gaiden 3 marks a new direction in this fan-favorite franchise. Team Ninja aims to change the way fans think about ninja and Hayabusa in this game, and promise that they'll know what it feels like to "cut someone down" through their experiences in the game. The game will also feature online multiplayer, both co-op and competitive, that will add a completely new experience to Ninja Gaiden. A new Play Style system allows casual players to choose automatic guarding and evasion assists (HERO mode) while giving core players the freedom to play with no assists (NINJA mode). Pick up the Dragon Sword once more, sharpen its blade and hone your skills. An adventure unlike any other awaits you...

- High-Octane Ninja Action: Built upon the same intense action that the series is renowned for, Ninja Gaiden 3 will challenge players while still remaining accessible for players new to the franchise.
- Online Action: A rich and challenging set of online modes are being implemented, giving players the option to play cooperatively or competitively. The "Ninja World" system lets players control and customize an ordinary ninja to try to advance him to the top where Ryu Hayabusa himself reigns.

Mom asks for return of stroller

It is truly a sad day when criminals are stealing from kids. Seriously. Tiffany, I wish I could help. I have a stroller I would happily give you, but it is a single. :(
on May 3, 2012 at 9:28 am
How sad, stealing a stroller? Any cameras around that may capture the thief (s). My hope is that the crime doesn't raise in Pleasanton. It seems that BART is bringing many stranger into our beautiful City.
on May 3, 2012 at 9:53 am
Kind of surprised to read that someone would steal a stroller here in Pleasanton. I, too, have an old stroller available but it's a single also.
As for the issue of crime and BART that everyone keeps bringing up, if you go to the Pleasanton police department web site you can find their latest annual report with Pleasanton crime statistics going back to before the first Pleasanton BART station was built. You'll see that (1) there was NO jump in the Pleasanton crime rate as a result of the BART station being built and (2) the year with the greatest number of reported crimes in Pleasanton was BEFORE the Pleasanton BART station was built.
I agree that many Pleasanton crimes are committed by people coming from outside our town, but BART is not their vehicle of choice for getting in and out of Pleasanton.

average a healthy adult heart beats about 100,000 times a day. Sometimes
however, problems arise with the electrical impulses that regulate the
heart. This causes an irregular heartbeat – or cardiac arrhythmia – a
condition where the heart beats significantly slower, faster or less
efficiently than normal. A person with a cardiac arrhythmia may
experience symptoms that can reduce quality of life and ultimately lead
to a risk of sudden death. Examples of cardiac arrhythmias include
supraventricular arrhythmias, ventricular tachycardia and atrial

The United States has made the "war on terrorism" the centerpiece of its global strategy since the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. It has proclaimed its leadership of a world-wide alliance to exterminate an "Axis of Evil." But what is terrorism? Who are its perpetrators? And what is the relationship between U.S. policies and terrorism? I would like to reflect on this question: what gives the nation that dropped the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and that has waged war far from its shores throughout the world on an unprecedent scale and with unprecedented destruction of lands and peoples, the prerogative to define global norms of absolute good and absolute evil?
Drawing on the Geneva Convention of 1949, I define terrorism as the systematic use of violence and intimidation against civilian populations and the natural and social environments that sustain them. Terrorism may be carried out by individuals, groups, or states under conditions of social conflict including war. It has often been remarked that terrorism is the weapon of the powerless. But even a cursory survey of the history of human conflict reveals that the most egregious terrorism has been conducted by warring states. I call this state terrorism.
Among the most terrible ironies of the history of the long twentieth century is the fact that it has been both the moment of the most profound international efforts to limit the scope of wars to protect the innocent (human rights discourse), and an epoch in which the nature and technology of warfare came to direct its spearhead ever more powerfully against civilians. The twentieth century may be remembered not only as the century of total war, but also as the century in which the nature of war, above all air war, ineluctably spilled over into state terrorism.
I would like to briefly discuss American and Japanese warfare in World War II for the light it sheds on questions of terror in twentieth century warfare. One reason for this choice is that both nations, while far from alone, were pioneers in advancing the frontiers of state terrorism in the twentieth century. Another is that the differences in their post war trajectories permit us to reflect on the possibilities of transcending the link between powerful nations and destructive wars waged at the expense of weaker nations and peoples. Specifically, it is critical, if we are to act to prevent all forms of contemporary terrorism, that Americans at the peak of their military supremacy, yet recognizing as never before their own vulnerability, reflect on the conduct, past and present, of our nation.
During the fifteen year war (1931-45), Japan committed large-scale terror against Chinese and other Asian peoples. Widely recognized examples of Japanese state terror include the Nanjing Massacre of 1937 in which an estimated 100,000 to 300,000 Chinese, many of them civilians, were killed by an army run amok; the sexual enslavement of 100,000 to 200,000 'military comfort women', mainly Koreans and Chinese but involving women from at least ten Asian nations; and the chemical and biological warfare programs of Unit 731 that took the lives of at least 3,000 victims in vivisectionist experiments (murder) as well as thousands more civilian lives in illegal chemical and biological attacks. Less discussed, but far more devastating in terms of the toll of human lives, was the Japanese military's systematic destruction of the Chinese countryside in a war of pacification that developed many of the most sophisticated practices of search and destroy missions and strategic hamlets that U.S. planners would later implement in Vietnam. The war took the lives of an estimated fifteen to thirty million Chinese, the vast majority being civilians. We have detailed knowledge of these war crimes because of the systematic research by courageous Japanese scholars and authors such as Honda Katsuichi and Kasahara Tokushi on Nanjing, Tsuneishi Keiichi on 731 and CBW, and Yoshimi Yoshiaki and Tanaka Toshiyuki on the comfort women, as well as efforts by Chinese, Korean and other Asian victims to express their grievances and secure apology and reparations from the Japanese government.
Japan (at Shanghai) and Germany (in London) took the lead in World War II bombing that targeted cities and their people, as opposed to military targets such as weapons factories and bases. But in the final year of the war it was the United States with its mastery of the air and increasingly powerful bombs that delivered massive attacks on civilians in the form of area bombing. First, the U.S. joined Britain in the destruction of Dresden taking 35,000 civilian lives. Then, beginning with the March 1945 attack that took more than 100,000 civilian lives in Tokyo and created more than one million refugees, continuing on through the reduction to rubble of more than sixty Japanese cities, and culminating in the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki with a loss of life of hundreds of thousands of Japanese civilians, the U.S. broke the fragile remaining taboos on civilian bombing. This deployment of air power against civilians would become the centerpiece of all subsequent U.S. wars, a practice in direct contravention of the Geneva principles, and cumulatively the single most important example of the use of terror in twentieth century warfare. As we mourn the 2,800 victims of the September 11 terrorist attacks, including Americans and citizens of more than twenty countries, we should simultaneously recall the millions of civilians who have been victims of American bombing and other acts of terror during and after World War II.
In the Nuremberg and Tokyo Trials, the U.S., in my opinion rightly but selectively, denounced and prosecuted German and Japanese war crimes. However, in a practice that continues to today, it defined war crimes of others while denying or ignoring its own war crimes such as the killing of hundreds of thousands of civilians in U.S. bombing of Japanese cities. Moreover, for reasons of realpolitik, Washington shielded from prosecution major Japanese figures, from Emperor Hirohito to the leaders of biowar Unit 731, thereby undermining the integrity of the tribunals.
In assessing Japanese and American warfare and state terrorism throughout the twentieth century, it is important to note that since World War II Japan has yet to come effectively to terms with its acts of terrorism against Asian people. But it is no less important to recognize that that nation has also remained at peace for nearly six decades while the United States has fought scores of wars throughout the globe, directly and by proxy. (An important qualification to this statement is the fact that a Japan has repeatedly and directly supported major U.S. wars in Korea, Vietnam, the Gulf and Afghanistan, to name the most important). In country after country, the U.S. has deployed technology designed to take the lives of large numbers of civilians while destroying cities, villages, and nature, and creating refugees on a vast scale. Here it is sufficient to mention but two of the landmarks of these wars, fought in violation of the Geneva principles protecting civilians:
Korea. The civilian death toll was in the range of half a million each in North and South. In addition, the war led to the creation of four million northern refugees fleeing from the North to the South, and the virtual destruction of both North and South.
Vietnam. The best estimates that we have suggest that three million Vietnamese, the majority of them civilians, lost their lives, millions more were forced to become refugees, and the land was devastated by bombing, napalm and herbicides. It is perhaps worth noting that despite the destruction and the toll in human lives that the U.S. military exacted in Korea, Vietnam and the Gulf War, not one of these conflicts ended in U.S. victory, suggesting the limits of power of even the most powerful of military machines despite the capacity to kill civilians on an unprecedented scale.
In addition, in Afghanistan as well as in wars ranging from Grenada, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Panama, and Kosovo, the United States repeatedly directed attacks on civilians, most often by unleashing massive firepower, although in some, as in the case of Nicaragua, techniques of low intensity or counter-guerrilla conflict provided the vehicle for U.S. strategy. In thinking about contemporary state terrorism, a central point is the ability of the U.S. to use international forums to shield itself from charges of war crimes, and to define acts of terror exclusively as those directed against itself and its allies while ignoring its own crimes. An important exception was the 1987 World Court decision which ordered the U.S. to halt its attacks on Nicaragua and to pay reparations. The U.S. response was to dismiss the court judgment, escalate attacks on the Nicaraguan regime, and twice veto a Security Council resolution critical of the U.S.
If international norms regulating the conduct of war or proscribing terror are to have any meaning, they must apply to all nations and peoples, and the great powers must be held to the highest standards. The U.S. call for a "war on terrorism" directly violates this fundamental principle by defining even the most barbaric U.S. acts, and those of its allies, as necessary steps to purge the world of terrorism. U.S. terrorism against the people of Afghanistan, themselves the victims of a repressive government and in no way responsible for the 9-11 terror, illustrates the futility and inhumanity of a policy that reflexively unleashes mass destruction rather than searching for means likely to understand the reasons why the U.S. became the object of terrorist attack, still less to address the problems that give rise to terrorism in this and other instances.
As Arundhati Roy observed: "Nothing can excuse or justify an act of terrorism, whether it is committed by religious fundamentalists, private militia, people's resistance movementsor whether it's dressed up as a war of retribution by a recognised government. The bombing of Afghanistan is not revenge for New York and Washington. It is yet another act of terror against the people of the world. Each innocent person that is killed must be added to, not set off against, the grisly toll of civilians who died in New York and Washington. It is worth reflecting whether U.S. leadership in a "war on terrorism" that ignores the social roots of terrorism embedded in poverty and the denial of sovereignty to oppressed peoples, and that itself is predicated on unfettered targeting of civilians, can hope to reduce no less eliminate terrorism."

Rangers' Rick Nash is in a N.Y. state of mind
GREENBURGH, N.Y. – The drive to the Rangers' practice rink from his Manhattan apartment takes Rick Nash almost an hour, maybe more with traffic. In Columbus, Ohio, where he owned a house, the commute was eight minutes.
The lifestyle differences for the Rangers' newest superstar scorer go beyond that. As the Blue Jackets' captain, for a small-market team, he was The Man in terms of scoring and marketing the franchise. Now, after once hoping to spend his whole career with one team, he's just one of the men being asked to blend into a group with Stanley Cup aspirations.
And he couldn't be happier.
"I love that city, it's a great place to live," Nash, 28, said Monday in a private moment in the Rangers' dressing room. "But I'm a professional. I'm competitive. I want to win and I just wasn't on the same page as [Blue Jackets] management was. And, at that point in my career, for once, I had to be selfish and worry about my own career and not the team and the city."
The Rangers acquired the 6-foot-4, 219-pound left-shooting wing, a five-time All-Star, on July 23 for Brandon Dubinsky, Artem Ansimov, Tim Erixon and a first-round pick this summer, ending a pursuit that general manager Glen Sather began in January as he waited for Blue Jackets GM Scott Howson to lower his asking price.
"I couldn't think of a better situation than to come here for my career," Nash said. "I'm looking at it now and I'm happy I got the chance to do it and I didn't spend the time in one place my whole career."
To understand Nash is to understand his vision of the importance of the NHL, imprinted on him as a Maple Leafs fan growing up in Brampton, Ontario.
The only New York comparison to the media frenzy and fan scrutiny the Maple Leafs attracts would be the Yankees.
It's close. But the Maple Leafs garner more attention.
Nash, who twice played at legendary Maple Leaf Gardens as a youth, scored 289 goals with 258 assists in 674 games with Columbus since being the first overall pick in the 2002 NHL Draft. But he's played in just four playoff games over those nine seasons.
Nash believes in the big stage, even if Rangers center Brian Boyle described him as "a quiet guy" and coach John Tortorella termed him "low maintenance."
He has represented his country numerous times – twice in the Winter Olympics, four times in the World Championships and once in the World Junior Championships. And there's no bigger microscope to play under than as a member of Team Canada.
"This is great," Nash said of New York, looking at the media crowding the Rangers' dressing room. "This is what I grew up with in Toronto, where hockey is a big deal. It's a top four major sport and this is what I love. This is what I dreamed of when I dreamed of playing in the NHL. And the only time I got that was when I went back to Canada six times to play those teams, or play in the Olympics.
"I'm embracing it all," he added. "This is what I feel is hockey. This is part of it. It makes the game that much more special."
Nash had 30 goals and 29 assists in 82 games last season for the Blue Jackets, who finished last in the NHL, nine points behind 29th-place Edmonton. Sometimes, Nash admitted, he felt as if he "had a lot of weight on my shoulders" worrying about his responsibility to carry his Columbus teammates.
Now, he's on the best NHL roster of his career and expected to start the season on a line with center Brad Richards, his Olympic teammate. The two were already showing some chemistry during the team's informal skates prior to training camp opening Sunday with Richards finding Nash open around the net.
"Obviously, he's a big part of the team but he's not the only horse, where before, he was," Rangers left wing Mike Rupp said. "We don't need Rick Nash to score two goals every single night where, before, maybe that was necessary."
"He's a big guy, with his wingspan and how fast he can move the puck across it, it's impressive," Boyle added. "You saw what he was doing on the ice today. He was making some 'D' look silly and we have good defensemen."
Because of the lockout, Tortorella has gotten only a limited firsthand view of his new scorer.
But in their brief conversations, last week's informal skates and through the first two days of training camp, Tortorella has no worries about Nash making an impact.
"I think he's at a point in his career where this is the next step in his game," Tortorella said. "He comes to a bigger market, more pressure on him, trying to find his way to produce in the playoffs. He handled himself very well at Columbus. This is a different stage for him. I think this is perfect timing for Nash and the Ranger organization to have him here."

Hi teachers,
Today arose this question in one of my classes, and I don't know which one is better or if both are OK. For me is 'a', but I don't know why.
a) "I'm using 'who' because I'm asking a question about the subject".
b) "I'm using 'who' because I'm asking a question for the subject".
Thanks in advance.
Unless the question is to be put to the "subject" in person.

CATEGORIES Casting, Family Films, Newsstand, Remakes and Sequels, Movies, CinematicalAlthough it's almost a year until we can see the second film in the Chronicles of Narnia series, Prince Caspian, news is already starting to spread about the third movie. (The series by C.S. Lewis has seven books, so we may be hearing about Narnia films for the next decade.) The third film in the series will be an adaptation of The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, and unlike the first two films, Andrew Adamson will not be directing. He's moving into a producer role. Instead, Variety has reported that the director of Dawn Treader will be Michael Apted, as was speculated back in April. Documentary fans might react with, "What, the guy who made the Up films?" And Apted's most recent film was the documentary The Power of the Game. But a look back at his filmography shows Apted has a wide range of feature filmmaking experience, from Coal Miner's Daughter to the Bond movie The World is Not Enough.
Disney and Walden also confirmed that Skandar Keynes and Georgie Henley will be returning as Edmund and Lucy, the roles they've played in the first two films, and Ben Barnes will be reprising his title role from the upcoming Prince Caspian. Peter and Susan do not appear in the book Dawn Treader; instead, Lucy and Edmund are joined by their insufferable cousin Eustace. All three children are faced with a dull summer until something magical happens ... well, you know they'll end up back in Narnia, of course, because that's what the series is about. The Voyage of the Dawn Treader is scheduled to start shooting in January 2008, with a planned release on May 1, 2009. Obviously it's important not to wait until the kids look too old for the roles. Although I was a huge fan of the Narnia series as a child, I found the first film, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, to be fairly unmemorable. I remember liking Dawn Treader a lot, and I hope Apted will be able to helm an entertaining movie adaptation.

PICKENS, S.C. - A Greenville man has been sentenced to 60 years in prison for killing his former roommate in a church parking lot.
A Pickens County jury found 27-year-old Tavish Yeargin guilty of murder and grand larceny Wednesday.
Prosecutors say Yeargin shot and killed Sean Dinneen in the parking lot of Crosswell First Baptist Church in Pickens County on Sept. 17, 2011. Prosecutors say Yeargin took Dinneen's car after the shooting.
Yeargin did not testify during his three-day trial.
A jury of seven women and five men deliberated about 90 minutes before returning the verdicts.
Yeargin was arrested at a motel in Asheville, N.C., several days after the shooting.

So sad.
on Aug 30, 2009 at 10:35 am
The saddest part to this is that they had to resort to the means they used to end their life together. Chances are they discussed this, and neither of them wanted to be without the other, but they had no legal resource to end their suffering together, so they needed to do it this way. Keep in mind that one of them pulled the trigger on the other. There needs to be more comforting ways for people to make this difficult decision, so that they are at peace with their last moments together, and not stressful to them and their families.

Let's put the blame where it belongs. On the California legislature.
They've created an environment where if you are sick and dying you likely won't be allowed to get enough morphine because it could make you an addict, or you could possibly overdose.
If I'm dying and I need morphine let me choose how much I want, even taking the risk of overdosing. Why does the state feel the need to leave dying people in pain?

Right you are, Guest. And if you like this scenerio, just wait until the feds start dictating your health coverage!

"Sad indeed," This tragedy took place at a time the for-profit, greedy insurance industry holds the decision making power over who gets to live and who gets to die. Your comment is opportunistic and disgusting.
on Aug 31, 2009 at 11:02 pm
"Get serious": This couple was 83 years old, and as the article said, they were both suffering illnesses. It would have cost them very little to help them stop their suffering in a more dignified way, if only it was legal for somebody to supply the means to them. That has nothing to do with "the for-profit, greedy insurance industry", as you so eloquently put it. Talk about an opportunistic and disgusting comment! Besides, they were probably on Medicare--you know, government run.
on Sep 1, 2009 at 8:29 am
"Sad indeed," your introducing the completely separate debate over who provides healthcare insurance in this country is gratuitous and, yes, opportunistic. Why don't you take it to another thread on the healthcare issue, or start your own thread?
on Sep 2, 2009 at 10:07 am
"Show some respect": My initial comment was absolutely pertinent to the article, and it's "sadness". "Get serious" is the one who interjected the "for-profit, greedy insurance industry" into the mix. It's interesting you didn't chastise that person. I guess the only ones you want to hear from are those who share your viewpoint. To that end, I will not intrude further upon your narrow mind in this thread.
God bless America!

I have known Mr. Stoddard for many years as a kind gentlmen who would take his early morning walks along the Alameda. Often times I would be walking my dogs in his neighborhood and he would take the time to pull his car over, get out and talk or we would enjoy a short visit at his mailbox. Always kind, always polite. I'm saddened but feel comfort knowing he and his wife are at peace.
Always in my thoughts.

Long before the Will It Blend? series exploded on YouTube, Tom Dickson was blending 2x2s with his blenders to determine their capability. As an engineer and inventor, Tom grew up putting big engines in little things.
Back in 1975, Tom's curiosity came between a vacuum and some spilled wheat kernels. His innate inquisitiveness drove him to revolutionize the home wheat milling industry taking it from stone grinding to his patented stainless steel milling heads. Like most inventors, Tom didn't stop here, he envisioned the perfect mixer using the freshly milled flour from his mill to make wholesome bread in minutes. While back in the lab, Tom developed the auto-knead button allowing the mixer to knead the dough, develop the gluten, and turn off automatically when finished. Tom continued to improve the mixer and decided to add a blender with a square pitcher, rather than the conventional round shaped pitcher. As Tom grew his mill and mixer business, new ideas developed and he enhanced the blender and began developing commercial blending machines just as the smoothie era began.
Fast forward to the next century, Tom is still inventing and the company is still growing! Walking into the world of Team Blendtec, you'll find the innovative engineering team and their "torture chamber", the international team seeing where their travels take them next, and you will still find Tom around the plant scooting off to blend up his next invention.
Today, all around the world people use Blendtec blenders in their homes, restaurants, smoothie shops, coffee shops, and more. We continue to keep dreaming of new and better ways to build machines that improve the lives of others. It all began with one man and his curiosity. He has shared that vision with others, and with his team, the dream continues to unfold.

About 5 things to do the whole entire time. Katie was handed a drink when we first got on, assuming it was free the way they were handing them out, but as soon as i ordered my bucket of beer I was charged for a 10 dollars for the drink as well. Also staff was impossible to understand. Food tasted bad. Bingo was a scam, 3 cards for 10 bucks, 100 plus people playing and only handed out 120 bucks handed out between the two games. Also lost power for a few minutes and was dead in the water for 20 mins so they started shutting the blinds so you couldnt see that.
The boat it self is extremely old and out of date, elevators sucked and doors didnt open all the way. Only thing enjoyable was the live entertainment and the booze. before speaking with others I was set on never doing a cruise again, Other people were saying this isn't a real cruise
caribbean cruise line gets a negative 5 stars from me, and will never get my business again, Waste of time and money.

The Clemson Family is a global one, devoted to improving the world we all share. The MBA curriculum provides students with the background they will need to succeed in management, finance, and business administration, but we also understand that theory can only go so far. It is when theoretical concepts are combined with heart and soul and applied to solving real-world problems that big things happen. Clemson MBA students believe it is the duty of community leaders to give back and swear to uphold the Clemson MBA Oath.
Clemson students don't just talk the talk — they engage and participate in a variety of programs and activities that put the positive influence of business leadership coupled with compassion into action. Students participate in a variety of volunteer activities to give back to the community, including tutoring GED-candidates at United Ministries, participating in TD Bank's Random Acts of Kindness, cleaning up downtown Greenville by organizing a trash sweep of the Reedy River, creating and staffing the computer lab at Triune Mercy Center, and much more. Learn more about ways our students get involved and give back:

Dr. Dennis Dirkmaat, an associate professor of anthropology/archaeology at Mercyhurst College and also the director of the forensic anthropology department in the Mercyhurst Archaeological Institute, was called on Tuesday, Sept. 11, to assist with the investigation into the airline crash in Somerset County.
Dirkmaat left for the southern Pennsylvania crash site just before noon, taking two Mercyhurst College students and several staff members with him. The team will assist in the gridding, mapping, photographing and excavating of the crash site.
The site in Somerset County was one of four crash sites linked to Tuesday's terrorist attack on New York City's World Trade Center towers and the Pentagon in Washington,D.C.
Dirkmaat, along with Dr. James Adovasio, director of the college's archaeology department, and Allen Quinn, professor of anthropology/archaeology at Mercyhurst, first became involved with handling airline crash sites when they were called to Pittsburgh in 1994 to assist with the crash of USA Flight 427, which crashed just north of the city.
"Mercyhurst was excavating at Meadowcroft in southwestern Pennsylvania when the Pittsburgh crash occurred. Officials called us because they knew we were down there and they knew we had perhaps the most sophisticated gridding and mapping equipment in the world with us," explained Adovasio. After the success of that recovery, Dirkmaat developed the process used by Mercyhurst College in Pittsburgh as a model for those crashes that have occurred since then.
"Prior to Flight 427 and that experience, the methods at airline crash sites had been haphazard at best," said Adovasio. "We basically map those sites just as we would an archaeology site, and the level of documentation we provide is unparalleled."
Mapping and documenting the crash site is key, said Adovasio, because the pattern of the remains can be very informative and often leads investigators to the cause of the crash.
Dirkmaat has served as an expert in Guam in 1997 when Korean Air Flight 801 crashed and in Rhode Island when Egypt Air Flight 990 crashed into the Atlantic Ocean.
Dirkmaat earned his bachelor's and doctoral degrees in anthropology from the University of Pittsburgh. He joined the Mercyhurst College archaeology department in 1991. Each May, he presents a forensic anthropology seminar that attracts students, law enforcement officials and coroners from around the world.

Sunny skies brought farmers out to their fields on Monday to try and catch up after the flood waters and heavy rain caused a delay in planting season.
Local Farmer Carl Neubauer said, "Typically we like to plant corn starting around April 20th or 25th and now we're past May 10th and we have no corn in the ground to date. We hope to start maybe today or tomorrow. So we're about 3 weeks behind schedule at that point."
At this time last year corn planting in Illinois was at 94% and right now it's at 17%.
Neubauer says at this point it's hard to tell if there will be any yield penalties. "It all depends on how our season turns out in July and August. If we have fairly warmer weather and not extremely hot conditions we may take no yield penalty. Conversely if we have a very hot summer the late start may hurt us."
Farmers that are just getting out into fields that are still damp may have to do their tilling twice.
But farmer Mike Hawkins says they can't wait any longer for ideal planting conditions, they just have to make it work.
Hawkins said, "You're going to have to go around wet spots it's hit and miss with where you can go. But it's getting late so we got to get some of it done."
Hawkins says with the late start harvesting will be pushed back to late September and early October.

There's a new look coming for the nation's largest electric utility — Duke Energy
Customers started seeing the logo back in March when it was first rolled out but it wasn't until this week that people saw the new look on the Plainfield headquarters.
"Customers will start seeing the logo soon, but it will take a number of months for the rollout to be complete," Ginny Mackin, Duke Energy vice president and chief communications officer, said in a press release. "In the end, we'll have one logo to symbolize one unified company — representing the largest electric utility in the nation."
The new logo will be placed on company signs, vehicles, and other locations in Indiana, Ohio, and Kentucky, as well as those areas of North Carolina and South Carolina served by legacy Duke Energy prior to the merger.
The company will began rolling out the logo in Florida, as well as those areas of North Carolina and South Carolina served by legacy Progress Energy before the merger took place in April.
Also in April, two former Progress Energy utilities will change names. Progress Energy Florida will adopt the Duke Energy name. Progress Energy Carolinas will become Duke Energy Progress.
To minimize customer confusion, Duke Energy Progress will use a modified version of the new logo that includes the word "Progress" — to differentiate it from Duke Energy Carolinas, which serves customers in different areas of North Carolina and South Carolina.
With almost 28,000 employees, Duke Energy's regulated utilities operate in six states and serve 7.2 million customers. Headquartered in Charlotte, N.C., Duke Energy is a Fortune 250 company traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol DUK.
