I've been using ETS for as long as it's been out. I've rarely had DOMS with the exception of switching things up (Routine wise), but even then it's been quite minimal. I am at the masseuse 2 days a week when I can.
This week, however, it's as though I were a first time gym member and not using ETS. I was in the gym Monday and I woke up Tuesday feeling sore all over. I'm not sure why. I needed a painkiller to get through the day. Wednesday I was up and feeling normal. Did my workout then today it was the same. I needed extra-strength ibuprofen to feel normal.
My routine hasn't changed. My diet is something I'm playing around with. Because of my blood sugar issues, I eat most of my carbs pre and post workout. I have a glucose monitor with me at all times. Yesterday, pre-workout I was at 93. This isn't high...it could be considered somewhat low. I had 2 scoops Nitrean + and a 400 calorie, 40 Carb nutrition bar (Made in Japan) pre-workout about 1.5 hours before. I don't know why my BG was low, but it was. I trained with 1/2 liter water, 1/2 liter sports drink, 1 scoop BCAA + throughout my workout. When I got home, I was about the same as far as BG levels.
I had chicken, brown rice, veggies when I got home. Cottage cheese and almonds before bed. Woke up with a blood sugar of 120 (Normal, dawn-syndrome)...but sore as hell.
Any ideas? I don't think it's the routine (Full-body 3x a week). Any ideas as to what I should look at would be grateful!

Cannabis Issue: Testing the tokes at Bay Area dispensaries
After initially being told by a disembodied voice to come back in five minutes, I submitted my doctor's recommendation and ID into the slot of a teller's window, darkened to hide whoever I was dealing with. Quickly approved, I was buzzed into a small, strange room with three doors.
I paused, confused, until the disembodied voice again told me, "Keep going," and I was buzzed through another door into a hallway that led to a large room, its walls completely covered in brilliant murals, expertly painted in hip-hop style. Along the front walls, a lighted menu broke down the prices of about 20 cannabis varieties.
Then finally, I saw people: two impossibly hot, young female employees, lounging nonchalantly in their weed box, like strippers waiting to start their routines. The only other customer, a young B-boy, chatted them up though the glass, seemingly more interested in these striking women than their products.
I finally decided to go with the special, an ounce of Fever, normally $17, for just $10. I opened a small door in the glass, set down my cash, and watched the tall, milk chocolate-skinned beauty trade my money for Fever, leaving me feeling flushed. It was the best dime-bag I ever bought.
Prepackaged buds
Price: Moderate, with cheap specials
Selection: High
Ambiance: Hip hop strip club
Smoke On Site: No
Sketch factor: High
Access/Security: High security but low scrutiny
Bernal Collective (33 29th St. at Mission) seemed both more casual and more strict than any of the other clubs in town — and it also turned out to be one of my favorites.
After refusing to buy pot for a guy out front who had just been turned away, I entered the club and faced more scrutiny than I had at any other club. It was the only club to ask for my doctor's license number and my referral number, and when I tried to check an incoming text message, I was told cell phone use wasn't allowed for "security reasons." On the wall, they had a blown-up copy of their 2007 legal notice announcing their opening.
But beyond this by-the-book façade, this club proved warm and welcoming, like a comfortable clubhouse. People can smoke on site, and there's even a daily happy hour from 4:20–5:20 p.m., with $1 off joints and edibles, both in abundant supply. Normal-sized prerolled joints are $5, but they also offer a massive bomber joint with a full eighth of weed for $50.
The staff of a half-dozen young men were knowledgeable about the 20 varieties they had on hand and offered excellent customer service, even washing down the bong with an alcohol-wipe before letting a customer take a rip from the XXX, a strong, sticky bud that was just $15 for a gram.
Buds weighed at purchase
Open for: six years
Price: Fairly low
Selection: High
Ambiance: A clubhouse for young stoners
Smoke On Site: Yes
Sketch factor: Low
Access/Security: Fairly tight
This longtime club (502 14th St.) has had its ups and downs, the downs coming mostly because of its location on a fairly residential block. After taking complaints from neighbors, the city required Love Shack to cap its membership, although that seems to be changing because the club let me in, albeit with a warning that next time I would need to have a state ID card. It was the only club I visited to have such a requirement.
Great description of each club. My top three in no particular order
Hopenet-amazing hash
Green Door- great bud
Vapor Room-cool atmosphere.
As the creator of this guide, I'd like to clarify that I did not update last year's reviews. But I am willing to do so for any clubs that request it by writing to me at firstname.lastname@example.com. Also, we will periodically be adding new clubs to the guide and possibly even including a gauge of bud quality, for which I'm currently working on developing a methodology. So bookmark this page and check back later.

To Steve,
If you are invited to review clubs and products in said clubs AND need a wingman, just let me know. I'm down to sample.
Sparc is cool but i must point out that cheaper price's, equals less quality in the strain!
But don't get me wrong it's a great place! A bit to focused on it's image..
When it comes down to have been movement leaders for many years ,
"HELLO"! Hands down The Vapor Room!!
There would not be half as many collectives, here or anywhere if it wasn't for those guys!!
At times the staff seem a bit snippy, but tell me what service industry employee has never been pushed to that point on occasion? NoNe........
They care!
They're involved in City Hall decision making.
They give and help in neighborhood bettering , and they are liked in there Lower Haight Community if not Loved!!!!!!!!!!! ....VR....
I totally ran in here by accident, but it's funny because when I was in San Fran I got a card and went to Green Door. It's the only dispensary I've been to but I thought it was awesome. I bought an ash tray.
haha, i was with my buddy in san francisco and we went to the green door. it's the only time i've been to a dispensary (being from canada), but i thought it was really cool and so forward thinking compared to us. i didn't buy anything, but was almost going to buy the pre-rolled j's for 5$, can't really beat that when you're on vacation!
Why trying this, when you can relax yourself by having a beer with your friends?
Cannabis is sometimes safer than other 'regular' things, such as alcohol!

validate and process form before sending to database
Hi all,
I've done this before but for the life of me can't remember how i did it or find the script (it was at least 5yrs ago and I've hardly touched code since then). I currently have the validation and database insertion on the same page - on a different page from the form. They both work separately with no problems but the only problem I have is that when I enter something that isn't correct it displays the error but the script doesn't stop it from sending data to the database. I was just wondering what I need to do to ensure that this happens?
Newbie....for the 2nd time
Aug 14, 2011, 11:24 #2PHP Code:
$error = array();
if($_POST['foo']) == '' )
$error[] = 'Foo can not be empty';
if(empty($error)) {

thanks for that. I'm away on work at the moment but would I be right to assume that as I have multiple fields in the form I would just continue on using the elseif statement?
Aug 15, 2011, 06:53 #4
PHP Code:
foreach($errors as $error) {
echo $error;
Doing it this way ensures that nothing important happens if an error is set, because you're only performing important actions when the $error array is empty. I set the $error array in my config file so it's empty on every page load.
Of course, this is an overly simple example. I check for $error, $success, and $warning in my messages function and print out accordingly. I can also use the key in the error array to pass special messages to my form class so that each field will have a customized message printed next to it. It's pretty flexible doing it this way.
PHP Code:
$error = array();
function messages() {
global $error;
if(!empty($error)) {
foreach($error as $err) {
$return .= $err;
return $return;
} else {
return false;
if($_POST['foo']) == '' )
$error[] = 'Foo can not be empty';
if(empty($error)) {
echo messages();

John Steuart Curry (November 14, 1897–August 29, 1946) was an American painter whose career spanned from 1924 until his death. He was noted for his paintings depicting life in his home state, Kansas. Along with Thomas Hart Benton and Grant Wood, he was hailed as one of the three great painters of American Regionalism of the first half of the twentieth century.
Curry was born on a farm in Dunavant, Kansas, November 14, 1897. He was the eldest of five children to parents Smith and Margaret Curry. Despite growing up on a Midwestern farm, both of Curry's parents were college educated and had even visited Europe for their honeymoon. Curry's early life consisted of caring for the animals on the farm, attending the nearby high school and excelling in athletics. His childhood home was filled with many reproductions of Peter Paul Rubens and Gustave Doré, and these artist's styles played a significant role in crafting John Curry's own style.[1]
His family was very religious as were most people in Dunavant. Curry was encouraged to paint animals around the farm and at the age of twelve he had his first art lesson. In 1916 John entered the Kansas City Art Institute, but after only a month there he transferred to the Art Institute of Chicago, where he stayed for two years. In 1918 he attended Geneva College in Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania. After he graduated, Curry worked as an illustrator from 1921-1926. He worked for several magazines including Boys' Life, St. Nicholas, County Gentleman,and The Saturday Evening Post,.[2]
In 1926 Curry spent a year in Paris studying the works of Gustave Courbet, and Honoré Daumier as well as the color techniques of Titian and Rubens. After his return to the United States he settled in New York City and married Clara Derrick, shortly thereafter they moved to Westport, Connecticut in 1924. Clara died in June 1932 and for the next two years Curry devoted his time to working in his studio. He traveled with the Ringling Brothers Circus and during his time with them created his painting The Flying Cadonas. He remarried in 1934 to Kathleen Gould. The Federal Art Project was instituted in 1934 as a way to give work to artists and alleviate the effects of the Great Depression. In 1936, Curry was appointed as the first artist in residence at the Agricultural College of the University of Wisconsin–Madison. He was free to travel throughout the state and promote art in farming communities by providing personal instruction to students. This same year he was commissioned to paint a mural for the Department of Justice Building and Main Interior Building in Washington.[3] He was also commissioned by his home state of Kansas to paint a mural for the State Capitol at Topeka. In 1937, he was elected into the National Academy of Design as an Associate member, and became a full Academician in 1943. Curry continued to work until he died of a heart attack at the age of 49 in 1946.[4]
Curry was part of the Midwestern Triumvirate of American Regionalism which included Thomas Hart Benton and Grant Wood; these men were hailed as the three great painters of Regionalism.[5] Regionalism was associated with the area beyond the Mississippi, mainly Iowa, Missouri and Kansas. The artists who were associated with Regionalism were concerned with rural nostalgia, and the American heartland. Regionalism was essentially a revolt against at least one major evil of the industrial revolution: centralization.[3] Centralization of manufacturing established low cost efficient factories and assembly line production, which promoted mass production and reduced individual characteristics. Following the Wall Street Crash of 1929, the Great Depression heightened dissatisfaction with capitalism. Rugged depictions of independent life with wide open space provided distractions for those in financial crisis. According to Meyer Schapiro, "Regionalism obscured the crucial forces of history, as defined by Marx, and provided entertaining distractions from the realities facing oppressed people."[3] Curry depicted representations of families surviving natural disaster in his man versus nature images. This theme was most certainly relevant during the Depression in the Midwest, which was thrown into economic turmoil due to lack job opportunities and income.Tornado Over Kansas reflects Curry's observance of nature and expresses his view of his home state, Kansas.
Curry was best known for his oil paintings and mural cycles. In August 1928 Curry painted Baptism in Kansas, which was exhibited at the Corcoran Gallery in Washington, D.C. The painting was praised by the New York Times and earned Curry the attention of Mrs. Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney. In 1931 Mrs. Vanderbilt Whitney purchased the painting for the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York City, thus establishing him as a major artist. Baptism in Kansas reflected the fanatic religious sects that held open-air baptisms. These popular religious groups were part of the scene of rural life that Curry saw in Kansas. Traditional religious scenes are depicted by Curry with all the reverence one would expect from such a subject. No well known Baptismal representations by old world masters employ the unique compositional layout that Curry favors. Curry's painting was a shock to Easterners who would have never associated a baptism with full immersion or with a barn yard setting, but Curry painted what he was familiar with, as Lawrence Shmeckebrier said he "saw this scene as conceived and executed with sincere reverence and understanding of one who had lived it."[3] Curry's religious painting is therefore an observance rather than a satire on religious fundamentalism.
Under Mrs. Whitney's patronage Curry painted Tornado Over Kansas, which depicts a farmer facing an approaching tornado while his wife helps the family and pets into the tornado shelter. The painting was unveiled in 1929 just before the Wall Street Crash in October and provided those in the city with the romance of man versus nature themes. During the 1930s Curry's work embraced the heartland of America and focused in particular on his home state of Kansas. He depicted scenes of labor, family, and land, in order to demonstrate peace, struggle, and perseverance that he had come to believe was the essence of American life. Curry's works were painted with movement which was conveyed by the free brush work and energized forms (that characterized his style.) His control over brushstrokes created excited emotions such as fear and despair in his paintings. His fellow Regionalists who also painted action and movement influenced Curry's style.[3]
Curry's most famous works were the murals designed for the Kansas State Capitol, in Topeka, Kansas. In June 1937, newspaper editors raised money to commission John Steuart Curry (who was the most famous artist in Kansas) to paint murals in the statehouse. Curry's design was divided into three themes: first the Settlement of Kansas, which depicted the Conquistadors and the Plainsmen; second the Life of a Homesteader, which would depict John Brown; and third, Pastoral Prosperity which would include scenes of modern Kansas. Curry wanted to be free to express his own ideas regarding the murals: "I have my own ideas about telling the story of pioneers coming into Kansas. I want to paint this war with nature and I want to paint the things I feel as a native Kansan."[5] Political controversy stalled the completion of the murals. Expensive Italian marble slabs covered the spot in the rotunda where the eight panels depicting scenes from the Life of the Kansas Homesteader were to be painted. The legislative committee refused to move them from the wall to make way for Curry's mural. However, behind the refusal were two real issues with Curry's paintings, the first being that Curry's factual details were incorrect. For instance, "they criticized the tails of his animals calling them not natural- like."[3] In Curry's opinion, those problems could be easily fixed. However, with the next issue the committee had an even stronger objection; and that was the image of Kansan abolitionist |John Brown in front of a crowd of people and a tornado. In particular, the committee objected to the blood on John Brown's hands, the prairie fires, and tornadoes. These inclusions were thought by some to show the state in a negative light due to the fact that Brown, who was executed for leading a raid on Harpers Ferry, Virginia, in 1859, was considered by some to be a traitor and a murderer. Curry tried to explain that while the blood on Brown's hands was not literal, his acts caused bloodshed, and that the tornado was a symbol of the abolitionist's passion. However, the people of Kansas saw its inclusion as a negative statement about bad weather.[1] In his presentation to the people, Curry expressed that he wanted to get into his pictures the irony that is the Kansas people; not a soft, soppy presentation.[3] When rejected, Curry in anger left the finished murals unsigned at his death in 1946. Since Curry's death, his murals have come to be regarded as on par with similar works done by his contemporary Thomas Hart Benton.
Curry's art in general was conservative in political content. He believed that art was for the common person. He did not believe in political propaganda, particularly the Marxist kind that Diego Rivera popularized in the 1930s. Curry avoided exploiting the controversial subjects in which Rivera became involved because, he did not believe they added any artistic quality to his work. However, Curry did create a few political sketches or studies, but these were never expanded on for larger projects. Rather, he enjoyed observing public events and capturing them on paper.
Curry's few semi-political paintings evolved out of his personal experiences rather than created as a display of social commentary. The Return of Private Davis completed in 1940 was first witnessed near his home in 1918, and a similar study was made in France during 1926. Schmeckenbier relates this painting to the Baptism: "a rural religious ceremony whose tragedy is intensified by the realization that this son of the fresh green Kansas prairies was sacrificed on a battlefield whose ideological remoteness was as dramatic as its geographical makeup."[6] The painting does not express a political spectacle, rather Curry's personal feelings. Conversely, Parade to War depicts departing soldiers rather than the return of a victim of war. Curry was working in a time period fraught with turmoil; he was working during the Great Depression, which was flanked on each side by a World War. He was inspired by a massive anti-war sentiment that was reflected in literary works such as All Quiet on the Western Front. Curry experienced personally the effects of war and portrays personal tragedy, suffering and death in these paintings.
Along with war scenes Curry also produced a number of manhunt and fugitive subjects. These ideas were inspired by remembrances from his own childhood, but were also observed from publicized events during the early 1930s. The Lindbergh kidnapping and John Dillinger's crime spree were well known and public deaths such as lynchings were often the result of such crimes. These earlier political works would influence later Curry's mural work in the Department of Justice Building.[6] Located "above the entrance to the Justice Department library" is Curry's painting, Law vs. Mob Rule in which a judge in black robes protects a man who has collapsed on the courthouse steps from a lynch mob.[7]
Despite popularity among the rest of the country, native Kansans were less than thrilled with his works. What Curry believed to be images that expressed positive virtues about the place he remembered from childhood were conceived to be making fun of the worst aspects of the state. Kansans found the inclusion of outdoor baptisms and tornados to perpetuate negative stereotypes associated with Kansas and lead to public embarrassment.[5] Curry had sought to capture the pastoral serenity of the Kansas landscape but when these paintings were displayed in New York galleries the already overwhelming inferiority complex among Kansans grew and they were humiliated by Curry's paintings. Resentment grew, as the chamber of commerce needed Curry's paintings as much as it needed other proponents of stereotypes such as the Wizard of Oz, which was released in 1939. However, New York audiences were fascinated by Curry's paintings. They were exhausted by the commercialization that surrounded their everyday lives and Curry's paintings were entertaining and allowed them to view a more primitive and isolated version of America.[5] Only recently, with the (1992) Statehouse purchase of the drawings related to his murals has Curry's work become appreciated by residents of Kansas.[8]

Hundreds are hoping for help in the battle against asbestos related disease.
While many are in Libby, others have moved across the Treasure State.
US Senator Max Baucus brought a high-ranking health official to the region today to show her about this problem.
"I think I'd be dead if it wasn't for them," said John Troyer, a sufferer of an asbestos related ailment.
Troyer, a Libby-native, was diagnosed with an Asbestos related illness back in 2009.
"I've been diagnosed with Plural Fibrosis. Just in a nutshell: the lining in your lung for most people is like a balloon, and mine is turning into an orange peel," explained Troyer.
Although he didn't work in the mines, John's grandfather, who passed nearly two decades ago, did. John now lives in Helena and has to drive to the Center for Asbestos Related Disease--otherwise known as the CARD Clinic--in Libby several times a year because the care is unmatched.
"Nobody in Helena...I actually had a doctor say 'we'll deal with your pleurisy or whatever it is you have,'" said Troyer.
Today, Troyer was able to share his story with Senator Baucus and the medicare administrator for Libby, Marilyn Tavenner, before the pair took a tour of the CARD clinic.
Many people, including Troyer, are hoping the pilot program is expanded beyond Lincoln and Flathead counties.
"I think what I've heard today is that we've got issues with service boundaries that we need to take a look at, and so I'm gonna go back and take a look at that because I think it's a fair request. And we'll make a review and see what we can do," said Tavenner.
This is good news for Troyer. If the pilot program is altered to include nonresidents of Libby, he along with nearly 600 other diagnosed patients could stand to gain extra services such as nutritional supplements, travel reimbursement, and special home care services.
Currently, 850 people are enrolled in the pilot program covering Flathead and Lincoln counties only, meaning their basic medical expenses as well as special, extra services are covered.

Artist's Statement
Jeffrey Berger has photographed much of the nature found on the barrier island of Melbourne Beach – its 20 miles of unspoiled coastal habitat is the perfect environment for capturing some of Florida's most protected species on film. And, with close proximity to the protected areas of Pelican Island and Archie Carr National Wildlife Refuge, Berger has created a series of photographs about Florida's nature which serve to educate the public. He donated the photograph Wood Duck in honor of a friend who recently passed away.
"My good friend, Peter Schutté, and I found this dabbler during a day excursion. Last week, Peter passed away after a long illness. A dedicated conservationist, Peter loved nature and wildlife. He served on the Board of Directors of the Sea Turtle Preservation Society, volunteered time as docent for the Brevard Zoo, and created interpretative educational programs for the Sebastian Inlet State Park. This one is for Pete."
Jeffrey Berger moved to Florida three years ago after a 25-year long career in technology and marketing. He previously worked as a Producer/Director of educational and commercial films and as President/CEO of a marketing and communications firm based in New York. Inspired by the incredible nature found in his own backyard, Berger re-discovered his interest in photography and began experimenting with the new digital medium. His works have since received several photography awards and were recently featured in Nature Photographer magazine.

Tory Burch
USD http://schema.org/OutOfStock
Color:The classic, travel-ready tunic, updated and embellished with textural trims. Our Odelia Dress, made of lightweight tissue linen, takes our signature silhouette and details it around the neckline, cuffs and hem with thick, pleated ribbon and openwork embroidery. A split neckline and three-quarter sleeves add to the bohemian-chic feel.
Style Number: 51131421
- 100% linen.
- Ribbon detailing at front and back neckline, sleeves and hemline.
- Semi-fitted; mini tunic dress.
- Sleeve length: 28" (71.1 cm)
- Invisible zipper pull at center back.
- 34" (86.4 cm) in length; hits above knee.
- Dry clean only.
Rated 4.7 out of 5 by 3 reviewers.
Rated 4 out of 5 by Jen41 Great cut! Can be casual or dressed up The tunic style and linen material make the dress easy going enough to run around in but the rich navy color and embellishments will dress up nicely. I plan get a lot of mileage out of this one - both casual chic and dressing up for warm weather occasions. I'm looking forward to accessorizing with white shoes and bag. I went up one full size to allow more room in the shoulders and for a slightly looser fit. My normal size probably would have worked but fitted linen results in severe wrinkles and is too warm with 3/4 sleeves. April 16, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by GloryRN Fantastic dress This is my first Tory Burch dress. I guess the first time's a charm. This dress is incredible. The embroidery is beautiful and it's lined very well. The fabric is of great quality. I ordered my usual size 12 and it fits perfectly. Only thing different is that the sleeves are longer than on the model. they almost reach my wrists. Still looks amazing on. Looking forward to wearing it for the warmer weather. It will definitely be a head turner! March 3, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by englishrose142 Fab, Glam and Gorgeous! I absolutely love this dress! I ordered it in a 12 but couldn't get it over my bust. With 2 days to go to my Hawaii trip I got onto to the Tory Team & within 24 hours we had flipped the size. Phew! So relieved cos it's the perfectly posh dress that I needed for this glam vacation. I feel & it looks - a million pounds or dollars if you prefer. Mahalo! February 24, 2014

PHOENIX -- A Mesa man who called police for help is instead in custody on suspicion of child endangerment, accused of setting a toddler on an upper-window ledge.
Marco A. Carillo, 31, originally called police to tell them he had been poisoned by a dart.
When officers arrived at 1432 E. Knoll Circle Unit 2, Carillo refused to answer the door but continued shouting for help.
Eventually, Carillo tried to leave through an upper window while holding the toddler. Police broke in through a rear door and were able to take the child, unharmed.
He was taken to a local hospital as a precaution before he was booked and jailed.
Child Protective Services took custody of the child.

Senior Wisconsin running back and potential Heisman favorite Montee Ball was the victim of an unprovoked assault early Wednesday morning, the school announced. He's been released from the hospital and is under care of the school's sports medicine staff, according to the release, but did suffer "head injuries," according to police.
From the incident report, via UW:
A 21-year old man was attacked while walking in the 500 block of University Ave. early this morning. Witnesses said five men jumped the victim. He was knocked to the ground and kicked. The victim was taken to a hospital with head injuries. It does not appear he knew his attackers and this is being investigated as an unprovoked assault. The criminals were last seen running south on N. Frances St. toward the Kohl Center.

Controversial party given the green light
5:00pm Thursday 20th February 2014 in News By Will Lodge, Senior reporter
AN outdoor "rave" organiser has been given the go-ahead to run an all-day party in Wivenhoe.
Council officers had objected to plans for the Fre- QKlash event on the May bank holiday.
They were concerned last year's event had been too loud and some residents living near the car park at Broad Lane Sports Ground, in Elmstead Road, had complained.
But councillors yesterday said organiser Rob Harding deserved one more chance at this year's event, due to run from noon to 9pm on Sunday, May 4.

In that case, let's hope everyone enjoys themselves, even the pouting pretentious blokes.

But my question remains - is there going to be a May Fair this year?

March 27 — Do you know the immigration story of one or more female ancestors?
The New York Passenger Lists online revealed that John Mason had sailed from Liverpool to Brooklyn, New York, in 1886 followed by 34 year old Alice, a year later travelling with 6 children aged 1-13 and two pieces of baggage. What on earth was life like for them all on the voyage? If only I could discover why they took this step of adventure from a small Lancashire community to the teeming streets of New York!

Doesn't matter Jason,
Turns out, the jerk is his own boss. I'm sure his "boss" is pleased with his actions.
He can still make good on his threat and take his "rear" back to Trinity. No one here will miss him and our streets will be safer.
I'm also quite certain the Oil boom won't fold because of his whiny "I'm going home and spend my money elsewhere" threat.January 13, 2012 at 6:04 p.m.
Jeeez Debunker, let it go already. The guy was mad and wrote an idiotic letter. Just what he needs is someone doing something even more idiotic by pursuing a letter to the editor writer to make his life more crummy than it already is.
I wasn't there and I'm betting none of you were either. I have my own idea as to what happened and it's pretty close to what you are saying.
Hey, I bet the guy slows down next time he drives through that turd hole of a town.
I drive differently in Cuero than I do in any other city. Why? because I'm still PO'ed at some trouble I got in there back in 1979. The cops were right then too and guess what, even though I hated them for it, they definately had an affect on me.
Let it go already!!!January 13, 2012 at 3:28 p.m.
You are right on the money there. Though I do believe his ticket likely WAS for "exceeding safe speed". As I pointed out in the original LTE, No officer is going to write a ticket for +/- 1 or 2 mph over the limit, that being within the error range of the radar.
As I see it,
1) The ticket was likely for unsafe speed (given conditions at the time)
2) That speed happened to be only 2 miles above the posted limit.
3) The man then B******s about receiving a ticket for 2 miles over the limit.When technically that was NOT the offense.
I've seen others do the same thing.
1) Man complains to cop buddy that some other officer gave him a ticket for talking on the cell phone and as far as he knows... that's not illegal!.
2) Cop buddy tells his friend that he's right, it's not illegal, but he can guarantee that was not what the ticket was for.
3) Man insists that he WAS given a ticket for talking on phone while driving.
4) Cop buddy asks to see ticket. Man obliges.
5) Ticket was for "Failure to maintain single lane of travel" (AKA Weaving across the lane divide)
Now, talking on the cell phone may have been WHY he was weaving, but the ticket was for the weaving, not the talking on the cell phone.
I think it is the same in this jerk's case. As you pointed out, you can get ticketed for an unsafe speed for the conditions even if you are within the posted limits. I think that's what this guy got and his speed just happened to be 2 miles over.
The really bad issue with this case is not the ticket (BTW, good job Officer!), but with the sense of entitlement and the right to break the law just because of who he is. This guy is a grade A jerk. PERIOD. No if's, And's, or But's about it.
Just because he is part of the oil industry somehow means he has a right to drive our streets however the hell he wants to and be damned with safety. That he somehow has a right to a warning vs a ticket.
I'd personally like to track this guy down to his employment and show his asinine letter to his boss. Wonder what the boss would have to say about his "attitude". Maybe they'll decide that someone like him doesn't need to be representing the oil industry any longer. especially if the incident happened while he was driving for them and not on his own time.
Matter of fact, I think I'll see if I can do that.January 13, 2012 at 2:48 p.m.
The streets are bad enough without having to worry about people who really do think they "own the road".
The posted speed is the limit- not the lowest.. Law also allows for slower speeds when conditions warrant it. Main St in Yorktown is a good example.January 13, 2012 at 9:04 a.m.
Tickets are routinely issued here for "exceeding a safe speed". There is no allowance for the posted speed- faster than safe speed will get a ticket.
He got a favor from the officer- I think insurance company will look at "2mph over more" favorable than "exceeding a safe speed".

Staff member arrested at Redditch nursery
11:53am Wednesday 5th February 2014 in Local
WEST Mercia Police has confirmed that a member of staff has been arrested at a Redditch nursery.
The employee was arrested during the morning yesterday, Tuesday, February 4, after police were contacted by a parent on Monday, and has now been released on police bail pending further inquiries.
Detective Superintendent Steve Cullen said: "This inquiry is at a very early stage and more details are being obtained. Whilst we keep an open mind, at this time it appears to be an isolated incident.
"Our primary concern is the safety and welfare of the children attending the nursery. We will be progressing the inquiry in accordance with national protocols.
"We are speaking further with the parent and child concerned and working closely with our partner agencies including Worcestershire County Council Children's Services as well as Ofsted.
"The nursery is issuing all parents and carers with a letter explaining, as far as is possible, the reasons for our activities and is fully supporting the investigation. Police officers are available to discuss any immediate concerns that parents/carers may have and can be reached via the non-emergency number 101.
"This inquiry is not linked to the ongoing investigation into allegations of sexual abuse at Bright Eyes Nurseries, which had branches at Bromsgrove, Redditch and Droitwich."

I never properly introduced Templeton Goods, and I'm sorry about that. When Colleen and I were writing the blog together I didn't want to take up post space with personal advertisements, and she didn't have a craft line she produced, so anyway… I never introduced my craft line and etsy store properly.
Templeton Goods is named for the infamous Templeton the rat from E. B. White's Charlotte's Web because (almost) everything I use for materials is reclaimed or repurposed. I've never been very good at buying new materials anyway, so this is really just comes naturally to me. Last year I really focused on men's wear fabrics: herringbone, houndstooth, chambray, cotton shirting. These fabrics are so abundant and universally stylish I just loved working with them. If you came to Crafty Mart last year I'm sure you saw me hawking them.
This year I've moved onto a new fabric to work with. Colleen brought me over a coffee bean bag which she bought from a local coffee shop. The fabric was just so cool! It had prints from the countries the beans were grown in. Some of the bags had rainforest alliance logos printed on them. The weave is loose and summery. I was very inspired. I've made some coffee cup sleeves out of the material, which are with a vendor waiting to be sold so I can't photo them. But the crown jewel of accessories I've made with these coffee bags are the purses and totes.
I am in love with them. They are fun to sew (though they create a large quantity of dust). And each one turns out different! I've been pairing the totes with fabrics I've collected from my favorite trash-dive, Zero Landfill.
I'm so excited about the way these are turning out it hasn't been hard to stay motivated in the sewing room. Expect more combinations to be revealed soon! And head over to Templeton's FB page and like me. You'll be updated when new items get posted in the store.

When Tampa Bay's rookie wide receivers, Arrelious Benn, a second-round pick from Illinois, and Mike Williams, a fourth-round pick out of Syracuse, aren't making plays on the practice field they are making plans in their hotel room.
Benn and Williams, who are roommates during the Bucs' rookie mini-camp, have spent this weekend scheming and dreaming of the future – a future that includes them in the starting lineup, catching touchdown passes from Josh Freeman.
"The first night it was great," Williams said. "We kept saying to each other that we could be the future whether it's this year or next year. We could be the future and we have the opportunity of a lifetime, no matter how our situation ended (in college). We said that we have to go out here that we can still do this."
Benn agreed and envisions him teaming with Williams to become playmakers in the NFL.
"We joked a lot because Mike has been getting a lot of balls and I haven't been getting as many balls," Benn said. "It's a learning process right now. It's great to have him here. This is a great situation for us. We are two guys that are going to be a force. We talked about how we wanted to come here and make a good first impression and do everything we needed to do and let it be known that we're here and we're here to make plays."
The 6-foot-2, 212-pound Williams has been the star of the rookie mini-camp, making acrobatic catches and big plays in the passing game.
"That's what I do. I make plays," Williams said. "My whole life people have been calling me a playmaker. I don't think it should stop now. I think I'm here and I should keep making plays and working hard."
Williams said he cannot wait to play with the veterans and work with Freeman, the quarterback he expects to be catching passes from this year.
"I want to make a big statement," Williams said. "I want to go out there and work hard with the team. I want to be out here with the team. I'll be back. I'm not going to miss any practices. I want to let them know that I am here to stay."
The Syracuse product knows that just because he's making plays in the rookie mini-camp doesn't mean that he will automatically earn a starting assignment. After all, players like Reggie Brown, Maurice Stovall and Sammie Stroughter have a leg up on Williams due to their experience.
"Those guys are good," Williams said. "They go out there and they make plays. Those are NFL receivers and I'm behind those guys right now. Hopefully I get the chance to learn from those guys and to earn some playing time.
"I feel like I have to earn where I have to get. I've got to earn playing time. If it happens, it happens."
The 6-foot-1, 219-pound Benn is taking a more confident approach to his rookie season.
"I wouldn't say set numbers," Benn said. "I have some in my head and I don't want to overdo myself. I'll definitely be in the lineup and I'll definitely have a lot of catches.
"I want to come here and be the guy. I want to be that guy who's going to take it to the next level as far as the receiving group. Mike Williams is a great guy. He's going to come bring it too, so I want to be that guy that they may not have always had, but I think with me and Mike we can be a tandem."
By having another starting-caliber receiver like Williams in the fold, Benn is relieved to have some of the pressure taken off his shoulders during his rookie season.
"It's going to help us a lot," Benn said. "It's not going to be on me to do everything. Mike is going to have some pressure also and he's a great guy. We're going to come out here together and help make each other great. We're going to have a little competition against each other why we are doing it."
Benn heard the reports about Williams having character issues at Syracuse and quickly dismissed them.
"[What is said about Mike Williams] is overhyped," Benn said. "He's a quiet guy. He seems cool from the little days that I've known him, so for the most part he's a pretty good guy.
"He's from upstate New York and I'm from down in [Washington] D.C., so it's two different worlds [in some respects]. We just like to catch balls and touchdowns."
Williams knows that he enters the NFL with a bad rap because of his disciplinary issues and academic issues at Syracuse, but is ready to shed the negative image that some may have of him.
"I definitely feel like I have something to prove," Williams said. "People say I don't work hard or that I'm bad off the field. I feel like I have something to prove. I'm here at this camp trying to prove myself.
"People think I'm a bad person that should be under the microscope. I want to let people know who I am and be under the microscope."
Buccaneers head coach Raheem Morris already believes that Williams is a good person, and based on his comments from the rookie mini-camp, he knows he's a great player, too.
"You have to go out there and be consistent at wide receiver," Morris said. "[Williams] practices well, and he practices hard. I love how he makes plays on the ball down the field. He's promising, and it has been a great start for him. There are high expectations for this whole class, and he is living up to it right now."
Morris is equally excited about Benn, who hasn't made as many big plays downfield in practice, but has impressed the coaching staff with his ability to make plays against underneath coverages.
"The thing with Arrelious is when you watch his tape, after he catches the ball he is a punishing running back," Morris said. "He does a great job of balancing his shoulders and controlling his weight. He lowers his shoulders down on the smaller defensive backs. He does a great job of getting skinny and fighting for extra yards. You got to see his underneath routes and drag routes, and his ability to turn up the field and become a physical presence. He is stepping into a situation where there is a bunch of receivers battling for playing time. He should fit into the mix nicely."
Benn said his first exposure to the Buccaneers playbook and Greg Olson's offense in the rookie mini-camp has gone well.
"It was easy [to adjust to the offense]," Benn said. "We picked it up like that (snaps his fingers). I know it's not all of it and it's just some basic things, but we retained a lot and it's easy to retain and we just came out here and did it.
"The transition is good. I'm out here and it's a learning process right now. That's why I'm here to soak up everything that I can and just get acclimated with how things are run. I'm feeling good just coming out here and having fun. This is my team and this is my home."
Williams also came away with a strong grasp of the offense during his first weekend in Tampa Bay.
"I learned a lot of the playbook," Williams said. "I learned two positions on offense. I took away how they practice out here. They showed us how to practice and how they get up in the morning, have a walk-through and have a real practice in the afternoon. I learned a lot about how to be a Tampa Bay Buccaneer."

Denver Broncos running back Willis McGahee is expected to play against the Oakland Raiders, despite dealing with a hand injury. McGahee recently had surgery that had a plate and five pins inserted to repair a fracture in his ball-carrying hand. McGahee is expected to play, but the real question is how effective will he be?
If McGahee is on your roster, your best bet is to leave him on your bench until you can see how he will be used with his hand injury. It's unlikely McGahee will see many carries out of the backfield, but he could be a passing target on screens and quick running back pass that Tim Tebow can complete. If you have another even viable back up option, your best bet would be to play them in place of McGahee.

BLOOMINGTON, Ill. -- U.S. Senator Mark Kirk made a stop in Bloomington Wednesday afternoon to tour the Central Illinois Regional Airport.
Senator Kirk helped pass legislation in May which allowed the Federal Aviation Administration to continue funding the airport's control towers.
Wednesday, during a congressional break, the senator toured the airport.
He spoke on his support for federal dollars towards anti-gang efforts in Illinois.
"I have been at the federal level, and I've been lining up $19.5 million to break the back of the gangster disciples of Chicago," Kirk said. "I would just say to the state legislature that the coming vote on mandatory minimums for gun crimes is the anti-gang vote of the year. If you are worried about gang violence in Illinois, you should back that."
The bill calls for more time behind bars for possessing illegal weapons and increases penalties for unlawful use of weapons.
It would also make probation less likely, imposing minimum prison sentences of 3 years in many cases.

Available Projects
I am the craftsperson featured in the 13th episode of season 2 of the show "woodsculpting". The one on hewing and carving wooden spoons. I have never seen the episode myself, and do not have Tv service at this time. I am wondering if anyone out there can tell me how I might be able to get a copy of this program, hopefully on a DVD. If I need to purchase it somewhere, that would be alright, but I cannot find it on line anywhere. Any assistance anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, rodneyThis message has been edited. Last edited by: rodney hopkins,
With whom at the network were you in contact when you were asked to host the episode? Was this on a DIY/HGTV show? I would think that whoever contacted you to host the show would be the point person to help you get a copy of the episode.
This sounds more like something that PBS would feature. What's the title of the show? I'd like to know because this is a show that I would have watched had I known about it. And apparently you're going to be hosting another show this fall, so I'd like to see that as well.
This Feedback Center hasn't had any sponsor response in quite awhile. I wouldn't anticipate that your request would be answered.
I see that you've raised this issue before for another episode you hosted. Were you able to get a DVD at that time? If so, perhaps whatever steps you took at that time might be of help.
Alternately, contact the network directly. If you're going to be hosting another show in the Fall, perhaps you could address the issue with them before doing so to ensure that you get a copy of the show.
Good luck.
Just contact whoever is your contact at the production company that did your show. It's typical to send a DVD to people like yourself - after the show has aired for the first time.
