Middleton Allstate Insurance Agency Changing the Perception Inc. Jamison Pharmacy The Sun Light Club The Orangeburg Massacre On the night of February 8, 1968, nine South Carolina Highway Patrolmen fired shots into a crowd of black students demonstrating on the front of the campus of South Carolina State College. Three students were killed, and twenty-eight were injured. Virtually all of the students hit by shotgun pellets were hit in the back. The shootings were the culmination of lengthy protests against the vestiges of segregation and racial discrimination in Orangeburg, especially the "white only" policy of the All-Star Bowling Lanes. This tragedy, that became known locally and across South Carolina as the Orangeburg Massacre, received little national attention at the time. Coming two weeks after the North Korean government captured the U. S. Navy vessel, The Pueblo and its crew, and only three days after the Tet offensive began in Vietnam, the Massacre was largely ignored by print and electronic journalists. Subsequent investigations and a trial aroused only regional interest. The traumatic events of 1968—President Lyndon Johnson's abdication, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s assassination, Robert F. Kennedy's murder, the tumultuous Democratic National Convention in Chicago, and Richard Nixon's political resurrection in the November election—largely relegated the events in Orangeburg to obscurity. Only the publication of The Orangeburg Massacre by Jack Bass and Jack Nelson helped to keep the story alive. But FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover managed, with some success, to suppress circulation of the book because he believed it was too critical of his agency. In the past four decades, historians have—with few exceptions—ignored Orangeburg while rarely failing to devote attention to the student uprisings at Berkeley and Columbia in 1968, and the killings at Kent State and Jackson State in May 1970. The events in South Carolina do not fit neatly into the anti-war protests of the late sixties, nor do they find a place in the bloody confrontations over civil rights that occurred in Alabama and Mississippi earlier in the decade. But those events do fit into a tradition of student activism on the campuses of South Carolina State and Claflin, and in the Orangeburg black community. A dozen years before the Massacre, students at S. C. State went on strike, refusing to attend classes, in protest against both the actions of the White Citizens Council in Orangeburg and the authoritarian policies of the college president, Benner C. Turner. In February 1960, just days after the sit-ins began at the Woolworth store in Greensboro, North Carolina, South Carolina State and Claflin students were launching their own sit-in at the local Kress lunch counter. On March 15, 1960, students peacefully marched to challenge segregation in Orangeburg only to be met by law enforcement officers and then fire hoses. Nearly 400 were arrested. Non-violent protests and demonstrations continued through the early 1960s. In 1967, students went on strike in "the Cause," staying out of class in opposition to the autocratic policies of long-time college President Benner C. Turner. Turner subsequently retired. Therefore, the events on February 8 can be meaningfully comprehended only as part of the larger and longer tradition of student activism on the Claflin and South Carolina State campuses. For decades after the Massacre, the black and white communities in Orangeburg remained deeply divided over the meaning and memory of what happened on February 8, 1968. For many people in Orangeburg, the Massacre was a divisive issue and a source of persistent racial animosity. Then in 1999, on the eve of the 31st anniversary of the Massacre, more than 250 black and white residents of the Orangeburg community called for racial reconciliation in a plea published in the Times and Democrat on February 7. "Orangeburg, Let us Heal Ourselves. . ." That call has had a dramatic and positive impact. In 2001, Gov. Jim Hodges expressed deep regret on behalf of the state at that year's ceremony. Then Gov. Mark Sanford issued an apology in 2003. While racial divisions have not been eliminated , they have been significantly reduced. The Orangeburg of 2010 is a far more harmonious community than the Orangeburg of 1968. For that we can be grateful. Three Orangeburg Massacre Commemoration Week Schedule of Events Monday, February 1, 2010 Presentation of Scarred Justice 7:00 pm - IP Stanback Museum and Planetarium "Scarred Justice: The Orangeburg Massacre 1968" brings to light one of the bloodiest tragedies of the Civil Rights era after four decades of deliberate denial. The killing of four white students at Kent State University in 1970 left an indelible stain on our national consciousness. But most Americans know nothing of the three black students killed at South Carolina State College in Orangeburg two years earlier. This scrupulously researched documentary finally offers the definitive account of that tragic incident and reveals the environment that allowed it to be buried for so long. It raises disturbing questions about how our country acknowledges its tortured racial past in order to make sense of its challenging present. "Scarred Justice: The Orangeburg Massacre 1968" is a co-production of Northern Light Productions, the Independent Television Service (ITVS) and the National Black Programming Consortium, with funds provided by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, Sally Jo Fifer Executive Producer for ITVS. -California Newsreel Tuesday, February 2, 2010 Campus Bowling Night 6:00 pm - KW Green Student Center Bowling Alley The purpose of Campus Bowling Night is to commemorate the fact that the Orangeburg Massacre was started based on students inability to bowl in Orangeburg, an opportunity which has now been afforded to them.

May have become is not a present perfect (that would be simply have/has become). Some would label this form a modal perfect.
I prefer to consider it as an example of a modal signifying a present possibility, with a perfect infinitive to show the past (or past-into-present) situation now considered possible.
you may have become = it is possible that you became / have become.

How to talk to your kids about sexWhen I was in my early 20s, I used to babysit for my neighbor's two daughters. One evening as my boyfriend and I stood talking to their parents, 4-year-old Emily joined in with a conversation stopper.
"Do you have a penis?" she demanded of my boyfriend, who looked suddenly like a deer caught in the headlights. "Because," Emily continued, "my daddy has one. He says all boys have penises and all girls have vaginas."
"Uh, that's right," said my boyfriend weakly. And then all the grown-ups laughed with what could only be called relief. Later that evening, my boyfriend wondered whether it was right to teach little children such words. I shrugged. I had no idea.
Fifteen years later, with two little kids of my own, I'm still not sure I have the right answers. If you feel the way I do, take this quiz and find out what the experts suggest we say when our kids ask those embarrassing, conversation-stopping questions.
1. Your 3-year-old wants to know where that baby in your stomach came from. You tell her:
A. The stork brought it.
B. Daddy and Mommy made it.
C. Here, have a nice, big cookie!
Answer: B. Although there's never one answer to this question, your response should be a simple version of the truth.
"Little kids are concrete thinkers," says Linda Ladd, Ph.D., chair of family sciences at Texas Woman's University, in Denton. So telling them about the stork, even in jest, will just confuse them.
Providing basic - and factual -- answers to a young child's first questions about sex sets the stage for the ongoing dialogue to come. "It should be a conversation, instead of a lecture, so there's plenty of give-and-take," says Anne Bernstein, Ph.D., a Berkeley, California-based family psychologist and author of Flight of the Stork: What Children Think (and When) About Sex and Family Building. When you answer your child forthrightly, she learns that she can go to you with any question she has in the future. Squirm or dodge the issue and even a preschooler gets the message: Don't ask, don't tell.

2. Your 5-year-old now wants to know how you make a baby. You tell him:
A. To ask Daddy.
B. Daddy puts his seed, called sperm, in Mommy.
C. Daddy puts his penis in Mommy's vagina. That's called having sex.
Answer: B. Your child just wants some general information to start with -- not a technical description. (You can add details later, if he wants to know more.)
"Parents tend to take an all-or-nothing approach," says Patricia Moylan, Ph.D., a pediatric neuropsychologist at Children's Hospital of Michigan, in Detroit. "When your child asks why your stomach's getting bigger, you don't need to go into the cells dividing. Just say that the baby is growing inside your uterus, so your stomach looks bigger. Don't overexplain."
What if your child demands the answer when you're at the grocery store? "Say you'll explain it when you get home," says Moylan. "Part of learning about sex is learning when and where it's an appropriate topic."
Don't let yourself off the hook at home, though, says Moylan. Bring it up yourself: "Remember you had a good question about how a baby gets into a mommy's belly?" and go from there.

AN ELDERLY couple fearful of the effects coal dust is having on their health are still waiting anxiously for the results of testing at their property.
Clive and Diana Kirkby last month spoke of their concerns over "great big clouds of black dust" coming from Whitehaven Coal's underground mine at Narrabri.
Mr and Mrs Kirkby, both aged in their 70s, live just two kilometres from the mine site and claim a fine black dust has started infiltrating their home in recent months.
The final straw came when a repairman investigating problems with their water system discovered a black substance – suspected to be coal dust – in their tank.
Whitehaven Coal denied its dust emissions had exceeding air quality standards, but admitted a hot and dry summer had "affected the mine's operations".
The impact of coal dust on health is an emerging issue in the north-west, with a number of coalmines either expanding or expected to enter production in the coming years.
Liverpool Plains farmer and speech pathologist Nicola Chirlian has studied the issue closely and is concerned at the evidence coming out of more established coalmining areas.
Once a week for work she drives over the hill at Murrurundi and sees "the haze of pollutants hanging over the top of the Hunter Valley".
She is campaigning for health impact statements to be made a mandatory part of every company's application to construct a new mine.
"I ran a health forum in Gunnedah a couple of years ago and from that the Gunnedah community said they wanted health impact statements to be done on the basin," she said.
"We put together a proposal that went to state and federal politicians and we've been heard, but we haven't had any action on it."
Dr Ben Ewald, a spokesman for Doctors for the Environment Australia, said the group had "considerable concerns" about the ramifications of coal dust on people's health.
"Obviously the people working in the underground mines are exposed to much higher doses and in the old days miners were dying of black lung all the time," he said.
"The exposure people get by living adjacent to a mine is much less than what they'd get by working underground, but the employees are choosing to work underground."

April 15, 2014
Winning artworks purchased for company's art collection
Nine CIA students won cash awards totaling $11,000 and will have their works added to the contemporary art collection owned by Dealer Tire in an art contest sponsored by the Cleveland-based corporation.
In a three-way tie for first place, the following students each received $2,500: Brian Mouhlas for "Aftermath in the Philippines," Oscar Gresh for "A Small Conversation," and Abbey Blake for "Growth." Anastasia Soboleva won third place and $1,000 for "Apprehending the Reality of Real. " Honorable Mentions and $500 each went to: Chen Peng for "Balance," Tina Egan for "Le Sabre," Abigail Clark for "Library Sale 2013," Nicole Matthews for "Head in the Clouds," and Abbey Blake for "Systems 1." There was no second place winner.
Jurors for the competition were Mueller; Brett Shaheen, founder of Shahaen Modern and Contemporary Art Gallery; and Beau Rutland, Cleveland Museum of Art's assistant curator of contemporary art. Results were announced in early April.
In all, approximately 80 works were submitted for judging, said Kyle Todaro '12, technical specialist for CIA's Visual Arts and Technologies environment. Submissions were judged based on creativity, originality, technical execution, and how the artwork relates to Dealer Tire's core values: fairness, personal and team accountability, playing to win, and innovation. Richard Konisiewicz '76, CIA's director of corporate, foundation and government relations, organized the competition with assistance from Todaro.

Talking Points:
"Good investing is a peculiar balance between the conviction to follow your ideas and the flexibility to recognize when you have made a mistake."
95% of the trading errors you are likely to make will stem from your attitudes about being wrong, losing money, missing out, and leaving money on the table - the four trading fears
Many traders become enamored with the idea of forecasting. The need for forecasting seems to be inherent to successful trading. After all, you reason, I must know what will happen next in order to make money, right? Thankfully, that's not right and this article will break down how you can trade well without knowing what will happen next.
Must You Know What Will Happen Next?
While knowing what would happen next would be helpful, no one can know for sure. The reason that insider trading is a crime that is often tested in equity markets can help you see that some traders are so desperate to know the future that their willing to cheat and pay a stiff fine when caught. In short, it's dangerous to think in terms of a certain future when your money is on the line and best to think of edges over certainties when taking a trade.
The problem with thinking that you must know what the future holds for your trade, is that when something adverse happens to your trade from your expectations, fear sets in. Fear in and of itself isn't bad. However, most traders with their money on the line, will often freeze and fail to close out the trade.
If you don't need to know what will happen next, what do you need? The list is surprisingly short and simple but what's more important is that you don't think you know what will happen because if you do, you'll likely overleverage and downplay the risks which are ever-present in the world of trading.

So what is the better way? Believe it or not, it's to approach the market, understanding how emotional markets can be and that it is best not to get tied up in the direction the market "has to go". Many traders will hold on to a losing trade, not to the benefit of their account, but rather to protect their ego. Of course, the better path to trading is to focus on protecting your account equity and leaving your ego at the door of your trading room so that it does not affect your trading negatively.
Strategies When You Know That You Don't Know
There is one commonality with traders who can trade without fear. They build losing trades into their approach. It's similar to a gambit in chess and it takes away the edge and strong-hold that fear has on many traders. For those non-chess players, a gambit is a play in which you sacrifice a low-value piece, like a pawn, for the sake of gaining an advantage. In trading, the gambit could be your first trade that allows you to get a better taste of the edge you're sensing at the moment the trade is entered.
If you look outside of the world of trading and chess, there are other businesses that presume a loss and therefore are able to act with a clear head when a loss comes. Those businesses are casinos and insurance companies. Both of these businesses presume a loss and work only in line with a calculated risk, they operate free of fear and you can as well if you presume small losses as part of your strategy.
Now that you're armed with a method of releasing the fear that plagues many traders, feel free to try this information out on a FREE Forex Demo Account with access to multiple markets.

Review from BeerAdvocate Magazine Issue #53 (June 2011):
Big "psst" when the cap is cracked, as the fine mist of CO2 escapes and ripe fruit starts to fill our noses. Hazy golden color, and the lacing is a sight to see. Thick fruitiness, ripe kiwi and papaya, then some cookie dough and peppery alcohol in the nose. Smoothness rolls over the palate, unfolding complexities. Peppery, earthy, wild herbs, yeasty, marmalade, animal feed grain, pineapple, walnut skin and faint sage, just off the first sip. Warming but very mellow alcohol, with a semidry finish. A down and dirty Tripel here, the flavor makes up for the rawness of it all.

poured into a small chalice.
Hazy gold, white foamy head lacing up nicely.
Sweet fruit and floral hop wafts over a light malt base on the nose.
Medium bodied, nicely balanced sweetness, hops, and abv. Lingering spicy-sweet aftertaste.
Tripels are not usually my favorite but I could have a few of these.

Pours a hazy yellow with a thick, white head that persists surprisingly long.
Aromas are fresh and tart, highlighting citrus, honeysuckle and dry grass with a mineral edge.
Taste is similar the the description of the aroma, with an added malty roundness and light funk that balances the other components nicely.
In was a bit overcarbonated at first but mellows out after a while in the glass, leaving you with a fresh and satisfying long finish. It is one of my favorite Tripels right now.

Pours a medium dark orange amber with a beautiful thick, firm and bold pure white head.
Nose is all huge assertive Belgian candi sugar and esters. Big assertive fresh cooked bananas with undertones of sweet honey.
Mouthfeel is medium rich and lightly creamy with nice balance and character. Feels "high quality."
Flavors are layered and complex. Front palate is sweet malt, sweet fruit and honey that goes to green spice and herb character to a green pepper bitter finish.
This is a rich bold and very flavorful beer. Layers and complexities - something for everyone although if you love big rich malts or you're a hop head, it may not be for you. It is, however, a beautifully balanced brew and may be just about the perfect "middle of the road" drinkable beer.

Bottle from Gourmet Haus Staudt. Cloudy copper with a persistent and creamy head. Spicy and peppery on the nose, malty but dry. There's a bit of candi sugar and bubblegum, but it leans toward the dry and spicy side. The palate is understated but quite flavorful, peppery with notes of caramel and ripe fruit, light leafy and grassy hops. Sweetness is restrained, and the finish is quite dry, spicy, moderately bitter. Highly drinkable for the style; a very nuanced and balanced beer with a refreshingly dry mouthfeel.

Shared by dkachur over a game of Brewopoly
A: VERY heady... Took me by surprise. Hazy light golden with some rather large bubbles coming up to add to the billowing head.
S: Salt and pepper potato chips., light almost closer to plain... But potato chip and breadiness. Not much fruity yeasts.
T: There it is again... but a little lemon zest. Lemon pepper potato chips? Weird. I like it, but it is rather odd. More as it warms, bringing out a slightly salty apple.
M + D: Not too bad... Very interesting and bizarre. Nice body, foamy feel... Easy drinking In that sense.

Poured from 750 mL bottle into chalice.
A: Pours a cloudy and carbonated yellow-orange with nice thick frothy white head (~1/2 inch).
S: Fresh yeast, citrus, mineral, and grass notes.
T: Hints of pineapple, honeydew melon, lemon grass, and faint mineral bite. Honestly, a little diluted though.
M: Very smooth. Coats the tongue well. Doesn't linger quite as long as you'd like though.
D: Good drinkability. There are better tripels out there, but this one is a good representative of style.

Good find, new to Lee's Las Vegas. Traditional look of hazy, lazy pour, good adequate head to release some very fine flavors. No doubt about the citrus out front, but then some subtle fruitiness, followed by some very nice malt. I must admit I am partial to good tripels and this one does not disappoint, almost perfectly balanced and wonderful ABV level that is never boozy. Rest assured, this is a fine beer.

Thanks to Chris for sharing this one.
A: The pour is a cloudy golden-orange color with a fluffy white head.
S: A fair amount of fruitiness to the nose, especially bananas, pears, and apples. There's some somewhat sweet and bready malts with a touch of some sugar. Though it's sweet, it's fairly dry.
T: Nice sweet fruits up front, particularly apples and pears. There's a pretty decent citrus character, particularly orange peel and maybe some lemon zest. There's a moderate sweetness, but it's pretty dry for a tripel (the way I like them).
M: The body is medium with a pretty high level of carbonation and a drying finish.
D: This is more what I look for in a tripel, much more toward the dry side instead of intensely sweet.

11.2oz bottle (best by July 2012) poured into a Bruery tulip.
A - Pours a somewhat dirty and yeasty brownish amber color. A thick finger of rocky off-white foam falls steadily over a minute or so and leaves behind streaks of lace on the glass.
S - Sugary sweetness and bready malt up front. A bit of yeastiness, some earth, a good amount of booze.
T - Sweet, spicy, Belgian yeastiness. Lots of bread layered underneath at the base. Alcohol is noticeable, but fairly well integrated and hidden in the flavor. Smooth for a tripel.
M - Smooth, creamy carbonation with just a bit of a tingle in it. Body is medium level. Mildly warm from alcohol, marginally Belgian spicy/fruity.
O - Good tripel. Doesn't really stand out in the crowd however. Solid, but nothing really stands out. Flavors actually seem a bit muted...this is one of the easiest drinking tripels I've had because of this.

Interview: Dave Stewart Talks New ABC Series MALIBU COUNTRY

|Little Big Town Return to Host ABC's CMA MUSIC FESTIVAL, 8/5
May 28, 2014
|Related: MALIBU COUNTRY, ABC
This Friday, November 2 at 8:30PM ET/PT marks the premiere of the new ABC-TV sitcom "MALIBU COUNTRY"--starring Reba McEntire and Lily Tomlin--that was created by Dave Stewart. The story is by STEWART and Dave Harris; STEWART is also an Executive Producer of the show.
In an interview below, STEWART--the British singer, songwriter and guitarist who's also an author, entrepreneur, filmmaker and philanthropist--talks about the series which follows Reba as a woman whose rock-star husband cheats on her and leaves her broke. She is forced to move her three children and mother from Nashville to Malibu, CA, where she attempts to resurrect her own singing career and shield her kids from the materialism of their new home. Tomlin plays Reba's free-spirited mom in the series.
What inspired you to create the show?
"My mind moves in mysterious ways! I became fascinated with Nashville after my first real stay there a few years ago when I got back to Los Angeles. I went with a few friends to Malibu to my friend [songwriter] Glen Ballard's house and for some reason insisted we all wear country outfits, cowboy hats, etc. (pic of that actual time included below). I made a little film too and put some music to it and then I started to invent a world where the two places collide. I then got a guy who worked at my management company to come up with some logos (also included below) and started to kick around the story in my head. I came up with the idea that a very messy and public divorce happens in Nashville between two country stars and the female moves as far away as she can to Malibu with her feisty mother, her kids, etc. I then proceeded to write the story and synopsis with my in-house writer at my company [Weapons Of Mass Entertainment] Dave Harris. Once we had that finished, I took the whole concept in a special box with story treatment, character breakdown, music, even hat and t-shirt in a wooden box to the late legendary producer Laura Ziskin and showed her. She immediately loved it and we became partners to pitch the project."
Did you have specific actors in mind when you thought of the storyline?
"Not at first but once Laura, Pam Williams and I started talking about it, we soon had lots of ideas including Reba [McEntire] as playing the lead. The weird thing was (this happens a lot in my life), almost the next day I sat down on a plane next to Reba's stepson, music manager BranDon Blackstock, we got talking and he mentioned he worked with Reba and I said I had a concept for a sitcom called 'Malibu Country,' can you get this to her and he said 'sure,' so I e-mailed him the whole presentation and then I sent the box full of stuff."
What made you pick Malibu as the show's setting over other areas of Los Angeles like, say, Beverly Hills?

As the federal government's proposal to implement a carbon tax to control Australia's carbon pollution drowns in a sea of political rhetoric, Rear Vision looks at the history of carbon taxing and how it has worked in Europe, where it has been in operation for the past 20 years.

The retail price of electricity has increased dramatically over five years and according to the experts this is only going to continue. The question is why? We take a look at the history of the Australian electricity industry.
The Global Financial Crisis had its roots in the collapse of the US housing bubble, which caused the values of securities tied to US real estate to plummet, in turn threatening the existence of many of the world's biggest financial institutions.

Piracy has always existed but through most of the 20th century it posed no real threat to maritime trade. That all changed with the growth of piracy off the coast of Somalia.

Already this year, Australian insurers have paid out over three and a half billion dollars in claims, covering the five 'big events' that swept away houses, cars, and a sense of certainty for so many people. In the process, the question of how insurance should be worded, what it means when people aren't insured, and whether and how states, regions and governments should be covered, were all being debated.

Sorry, this ad is no longer available.
With the brand new Xtended Definition series, Korg brings a whole set of professional features to its D-Series of digital recording studios. A stable of advanced mixing, editing, and recording features are complimented by a huge internal hard drive, a built-in CD-RW burner and a variety of performance enhancing options. Offering 96 kHz/24 bit resolution, up to sixteen simultaneous record tracks, mix automation and flying faders, the D32XD Digital Recording Studio is equipped to bring your creative ideas to life.
Brilliant Ergonomic Design
The D32XD is designed to provide unparalleled ease of use, the highest quality audio recording and processing available – and to look good doing it. The clean, stylish lines and uncluttered control surface are preserved thanks to the huge TouchView display that organizes a wealth of parameters and controls into easily accessed on-screen menus. This new display features enhanced resolution, a four-tone gray scale, and tilts up for easy viewing. The improvements to the display make it ideal for audio editing functions. Four dedicated knobs below the display provide permanent realtime access to the Effects parameters. Similar dedicated knobs and buttons for the individual EQs and Sends are located to the right of the display. And, flying faders and dynamic automation are the icing on the cake.
Supreme Audio Quality
Xtended Definition means this new recorder features
uncompressed, 96 kHz / 24-bit audio recording. Resolutions of 48 kHz and 44.1 kHz (both at 24 and 16 bit depths) are also supported. Digital processing quality remains at high levels throughout the mixer, effect and output stages. But digital excellence is not the end of the story. The D32XD also provides eight channels of fully programmable analog compression to the inputs, delivering a richness of tone and dynamic processing that cannot be duplicated by digital technology.
Modular Input Design
Eight XLR jacks, each with individual phantom power supply, only hint at the input possibilities. Eight 1/4" balanced jacks are also provided. Each input features a variable trim knob and a 24dB pad to accommodate almost any input source. By adding the optional eight channel analog input board (AIB-8) the D32XD can reach its full potential of 16 inputs. The optional analog compressor board (ACB-8) provides the same high quality compression to these extra inputs. For added convenience, the front panel offers a dedicated guitar input.

As the harsh winter season arrives, being able to protect our bodies from the elements is something we often take for granted. For many, the luxury of a clean and warm coat is only a wish. In the spirit of Thanksgiving, we will be launching a coat drive from now until November 17 to serve those in need. In King County alone nearly 3,000 people are reported to be homeless. This number doesn't even include the low-income families, single moms, and children in need.
As the hands and feet of Christ, we have an opportunity to share the love of Jesus. Offering love and warmth through the act of giving a coat is a wonderful example of God's grace. We will be collecting new and used coats of any and all sizes (preferably in good condition).
This is a wonderful way for our churches and community groups to engage and serve in their local context. Pastor Tim Smith of Mars Hill Portland captured some great vision behind why we do this:
Bring your coats to your local Mars Hill church on Sundays or throughout the week now until November 17. Each church is responsible for coordinating the collection and delivery of the coats. You can find out more specific details about your church's coat drives on their Facebook events:
- Bellevue
- Ballard
- Downtown Seattle
- Federal Way
- Olympia
- Portland
- Rainier Valley
- Shoreline
- U-District
- West Seattle
May we not only look to take care of our own family, but also look to serve those who aren't in our family yet. Thank you for considering and please invite friends and family to do the same by sharing these events. God is good and we can share his goodness in the simplest of ways—even as simple as a coat.

There is a separate area for small dogs. There is plenty of room for them to roam and water stations as well.
took both of our dogs here last week and they had a blast. Well kept and clean, Shady area with lots of places to sit and even walk for exercise. Dogs were happy and so were we. Much better than dog beach.
This park is actually two areas. One area is for small dogs and the other larger area is for bigger dogs. Most people meet there weekly to catch up while their dogs run and play. There are picnic tables and watering dishes and trash cans. Only friendly dogs are encouraged to come to the park. If your dog is mean...
We take our dog there several times a week to socialize and exercise. It is a large area with plenty of room to throw a ball or a stick. There are water dishes and hoses for cool down. Also, a smaller area is fenced off for small dogs that don't want to play with larger dogs
We have three small dogs and they like to have the option of being in the small dog section, when the big dogs outside are around, but then go out into the large dog section when they want to.
you are always taking a chance when you go to these places. even if you are prepared and know what to do in case of an emergency you don't know what the other person will do. Some persons don't realize that ultimately- staying calm and not screaming is what will help end the problem. Dogs are wonderful, people not always.
If you are traveling with your dog this is a must, very well maintained. There is a area to rince your dog off after being in park or beach and swimming in gulf. Only negative is the beach area is not fenced in, so it's a long run after them if they are the running kind
Friendly regulars and a good facility. Would be better if a little larger so aggressive dogs with inattentive owners could be avoided.
Plenty of nearby parking. Has 2 areas fenced in: a large area (about the size of a football field) and a smaller area or small dogs. Water is there for dogs to drink plus 2 pools and a hose to wash them off. Dog bags and trash cans are there. Owners are considerate. tennis balls available too, but the dogs...
This is the one place my schnauzer loves To go every day! Been coming here for 12 years and hope we can bring our dog for years to come. I agree that the park has (gone to pot) int the last few years, and is in need of some work, I am hoping that the attention it needs is coming...

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Matt Garza throws to the Los Angeles Angels during the first inning of a baseball game, Monday, July 29 in Arlington, Texas.
- Filed Under
Many have heard the phrase "having beer muscles" at some point. The unfortunate slogan stems from common occurrences from jerks around the world. We've all seen - or heard - beer muscles guy within our respective communities along the way: loud, obnoxious and always trying to start trouble where it doesn't belong.
Well my friends, there is another form of this epidemic, creeping into the societies of our great land. But it has nothing to do with being influenced by alcohol or drugs. It's quite the opposite.
In fact, these people are quite sober when acting - for lack of a better term - stupidly.
Yep, I'm talking about "social-networking muscles."
Sure, this has been an ongoing issue for a while, but unfortunately, it's starting to really infect the sports community.
Lately, I couldn't help but notice common folks and celebrities alike turning to their respective electronic devices and spitting out ignorant thoughts at a rapid rate, particularly athletes.
In fact, you can't even tune into SportsCenter anymore without them showing a tweet from somebody. Seriously, does ESPN even need reporters anymore?
Case in point: we sure didn't need any of their Major League Baseball beat reporters this week to break the news of Matt Garza's incompetence. He was perfectly capable of doing that all by himself. If you weren't made aware, the Texas starting pitcher went after another player's wife on Twitter.
It all started when the first-place A's dropped down four bunts - three of them sacrifices - in Saturday's 4-2 victory over the division rival Rangers.
Garza, who was on the mound, didn't take too kindly to Oakland's success, as he was seen screaming at the Athletics' Eric Sogard, following an effective squeeze play in the seventh inning.
Sogard's pregnant wife, Kaycee, was tweeting throughout the game, which included a few comments about the rising tensions on the field.
Garza, being the cool and mature man that he is, struck back and essentially tweeted that Kaycee should not be speaking, in addition to learning her place as a wife. And as for Eric, Garza insinuated that he was less of a man for reasons previously stated.
First of all, how can any man think that way after being married with two young daughters? And even if Garza is ignorant enough to believe those thoughts, why is he sharing them publicly?
I'll tell you why: today's generation seems to think they have to share every thought and moment with the world, as if everyone else cares what they're doing. It's no wonder why people today are so self-involved and have created such a vain culture.
I can think of better ways to spend my time, such as figuring out what I'll be having for lunch today at the In-and-Out Burger.
Now don't get me wrong, I do appreciate the opportunities social networking has created. Like the ability to stay in contact with others, no matter where you are, is invaluable. On the other hand, it has created a platform for many morons to run their mouths. ? Err - I mean thoughts in messages and or posts to society.
Look, I get the whole social-networking culture. Things like Twitter are here to stay. Yet as a consequence, people will continue to get more vain and self-absorbed, but hey, at least we'll be able to communicate with whoever and whenever we want to, right?
But can these companies at least do all of civil society a favor and at least send users a "are you sure you want to send this moronic message" warning before it actually goes out to the world?
I might not need one. You might not need one. But the Garza's of the world certainly do.
