Allowing a day to heal at my host's comfortable place. Her cat checks on me intermittently as I raid her bookshelf. Like the company my novel keeps…
Hello friends! On April 4th of this year, I released my debut novel, I Blew Up Juarez. Proudly, I sold several copies and ran out of printed books!
I intended to put out the next "book" this holiday season, but I have another idea, and this is where I need your help!
On AUGUST 31, 2014 I'm sending out a quick survey for all readers of I Blew Up Juarez via email to collect your thoughts on how the story continues, even if you're not finished reading the book! Exciting, right?
If you are interested in becoming a participant, please send an email titled "FOCUS GROUP" to email@example.com by AUGUST 30 so that you're included.
It will be a bcc interaction, so don't worry about your individual opinion being lost in the mix.
I value your insight. Thanks!
Von Simeon
Author, I Blew Up Juarez
How dare you, Union Pacific, block off the ONLY road to the neighborhood I need to get to!! Alright, fine, roll on through…
…keep it moving…
…geeeeeeeeeez how long is this train? Hurry up slowpoke…
…wait, WHAT? Why are you stopping? Here?? IN FRONT OF ME???
(several torporific minutes pass)
BACKWARDS?!?! You just went– you were going — GAWDDAMMITSUMBITCCCCHHHH!
Pinche tren.
My foot step into the first room made a hollow noise against the centuries-old wooden floor. Instinctively I fold my arms tight across the chest, for some reason feeling very invasive in this person's – persons? – home.
To the left, the estate sale organizers had created a three-tier shelving with boxes full of "chinch": sewing bobbins, Christmas cards, crochet needles, rope. Before dismissing them all I land upon a box labeled, "Stationary" and proceed to shuffle through its contents.
The organizers want $8.00 for the whole box, but I decide I only want these particular parchments.
The next room I enter is full of blankets, handmade all, crocheted or quilted by the same woman who sent correspondence on Little Stinker paper. This is where I experience The Clocker. She's the person (usually a she, sorry but it's true!) who follows you around to see what you value so she can grab it under you. Her joy at these events is not in finding something that resonates with her, but in finding something that she took away from someone who admired it. Psycho, right? Well, she starts by placing her hand on a pile of needlepoint napkins.
"Aren't these gorgeous?" she asks. Her hand strokes the top one, a very nicely stitched sunflower design, as her eyes widen for my response.
I give her my best, "Meh" and continue forward.
She tries another play beside the stack of boxes. "Are those cigar boxes? Ooh, I want to see one."
I turn and find she's right behind me, violating all personal space rules. I appease her by lifting the stack of boxes with one hand, then placing them in front of her. Before she gets a chance to play "Do you like this one?" again, I swipe out the large box from the stack and keep it moving.
My friend finds me playing with a set of binoculars. "Have you had a chance to check out the books yet?"
I adjust the focus in my left eye to stare in the room across from me. "Nope."
She nods with that nod of, you need to check it out.
I put down the binoculars, cross into the room I was spying into for a bit before I journeyed towards the reading room. As I pass through the corridor, I notice The Clocker has found the binoculars and is busy pretending to use them.
The reading room is where I meet the gentleman of the house. Yellowed corrugated tubes line a segment of a wall. Maps. Large shipping trunks fill the center of the room; my friend's haggling on the blue and brass one. There are measuring tools, a surveyor's scope, and medallions from all over. A well-traveled man, the highlights of his years being the early 20th century.
My eyes circle up to the bookshelves and I observe a mixture of children's classics, encyclopaedia, a book on house keeping, and then rows upon rows of engineering-based books. Titles like, "Metals," "Measurements," one simply "Engineering." My friend happens to pass behind me, "He was into digging. You should see the big tools in the garage." I shall.
As I skim the shelves, I put together a story of a small-town boy with an incredibly busy mind. He marries his high school sweetheart and takes right off to the oil fields, working his way from entry level to lead engineer before he's in his 20s. He'd be gone for months, sailing the world on large frigates, learning new techniques, putting his own to practice, every once in a while sending Lulubelle (my name for the needlepointer) a gift in exchange for a letter. They were a couple that used the power of written word to keep it together, and they managed to live a long and productive life.
I smile at my happy little made-up-on-the-spot tale, then remember to pull the books I want before The Clocker finds me again.

This gallery contains 3 photos.
Allowing a day to heal at my host's comfortable place. Her cat checks on me intermittently as I raid her bookshelf. Like the company my novel keeps…
Let's go ahead and assess this damage.
Left foot meets right foot and I bow forward. Already I feel a pull in my lower back. Continue to weigh my torso so that my arms sink along the side of my legs, hands planting onto the floor. Definitely a strain. One more measure: bend the elbows to sink deep into the back leg stretch, ass high in the air. I freeze at the sensation of a red hot poker blade dragging itself from top of thigh to the center of my lower back.
That's not a strain, ladies and gentleman, that's a muscle tear.
With that I lower to the ground, fan my legs, and extend a stretch to the right then gingerly to the left. The damage is officially from the right waist to the back of the right ankle. I'm an expert at fucking up my body.
I harness Bobby to include Bear's Texas A&M dog tag (to signal we're friendlies in the OSU/OU territory) and with bottled water in hand, we head down the street.
Middle America is quiet at 11:13 am CST. Cloudy and breezy, a welcome after a bitch of a heat wave over the weekend. The neighborhood I'm staying in is quaint, provencal, and proudly maintained. Every house a little story, every yard an expression of self-worth. The large diesel commercial trucks parked in the driveways likely cost more than the houses. I imagine the person who drives that truck to work is enjoying a few days, maybe hours, of respite before he takes off, back to the fields.
What are the wives of roughnecks like? By garden alone, you can tell she's a proud Oklahoma woman, growing rosemary, sage, cactus, purple-tipped sawgrass. Nothing exotic; a botanical expression of Midwest culture – familiar, comfortable, native. As we continue down the street I note the various license plates representing nations: Cherokee. Choctaw. Osage. Texas.
A man in a wide-brimmed straw hat driving a black beat up F-150 offers us a wave of greeting as we turn down on 25th street. Bobby's being serenaded by the local dog community, all stir-crazy that the little black boy bops freely down the middle of the street while they tug helplessly on their chains.
My skin warms as the approaching noon sun lifts centerward, and I start to feel my hip slip. Now I'm very concentrated on the intensity of this injury: the tear in the muscle interferes with my ability to comfortably propel forward; it feels as if my hip is slipping out of position. The spirit is always willing, but today, we'll cut this walk short.
Bob and I turn up onto the main road back to our street and we are eyed by a very bothered, obese Jack Russell terrier. She frightens me as she tears across the busy street to defend her home from an unsuspecting Bobby. She nipped at him lightly, but Bob took it as a greeting, wagging his tail with delight. Her owner soon recovered her and we had a short but comforting exchange – all is fine, Bobby's fine, I hope she's okay.
We are welcomed back to our street by a cacophony of curious dogs, and I enjoy watching Roberto Tiberius promenade down the center of the street, panting towards his subjects, one black paw after another trotting towards his familiar truck and house.
Meanwhile, I actualize the severity of my damage and decide to stay here in the land of the roughnecks until I'm fully healed.
Part 1: The Wingman Preliminary
There should be more people out here than there is.
No matter, as the rental chariot of the day, one Ford Fiesta, slides into a parking space in front of Paradise Grill. Immediately the smell of salt rushes up my nose and through my skull, making the center of my scalp tingle.
Bob unloads, overexcited to be out of the house and in a public place. His black nose busies nudging bush branches as I and my proven co-captain journey towards the deck.
Bummer. The grill is closed.
We find my favorite two Adirondack chairs vacant over to the right. She pulls out her pack of smokes while I wrangle my dog to at least try to stay in the vicinity. I let go of his lead and let him visit with the people making the short climb up the side wall to reach the deck we're on. Cloudy night makes the full moon a full smear up and to the left of us. The Gulf of Mexico lap lap laps in quick tempo as the tide shifts out. The water is a soft grey, perfectly reflecting the clouds above it, creating a silvery soft vortex opened only to us three, a portal of infinite possibility.
I sigh. "I wanted to do something to commemorate this day, but the grill is closed." I smack my own forehead. "We drove right past that Circle K. I coulda stopped and picked up some beers before we made it down!" I stay looking at her. In her amiable style, she says, "No worries," and I assume it's because we still have a whole 'nother cigarette to burn. I shimmy forward on my long seat and straighten up to announce, "Come on. Before we get comfortable. Everyone back to the car."
The Circle K has a long faced woman working the counter tonight. This is such an important day, a successful day; today I got rid of that last bit of trash. Consciously amending my sobriety clause, I wind past the salty snacks and to the double door coolers.
We're doing it. We're gonna have an alcoholic beverage, because that's what you do when you succeed; you raise a glass and you let yourself be giddy. My eyes scan the options and I frown. No Dos Equis.
There it is.
Sam Adams.
Boston Lager.
"If you're gonna fall off the wagon, do it with Sam," I proclaim as I lift the sixer off its shelf. That's when I notice the wine case. Shoot! I saunter over and see it's the bring-a-bottle-to-a-dinner-party variety. I figure one cannot go wrong with a Chateau St Michelle Riesling if it's already chilled in the case. She grabs the bottle while I return the stock. "I think it's a cork. Yeah, it's a cork," she says fiddling with the top. "We're gonna need a bottle opener."
"No we're not, we still have the tool bag." The tool bag. One of the things I told her to keep up with when we loaded the car. 'Be familiar with this bag; it's going on our trip.' She pointed out I was missing needle-nosed pliers. Add to travel list.
"We have a flat head screwdriver and a hammer." Over the top of the bottle she's holding, I mimic the screwdriver in my left, the hammer in my right, and one focused hit to the head. "Bottle opener."
Although we should probably add a corkscrew bottle opener to the tool bag. Add to travel list.
The twenty dollar bill in my wallet turned out to be a ten dollar bill, so back to the original plan. We head back to the beach; this time, over to the long bench overlooking the south part of the deck. The tide had carried out some more. I use my key chain opener to serve our beers. We toast to our great day, clink necks, and enjoy the deep amber…
[NOTE: Got big news for you, but why just blurt it out when I can make it a three-part reveal? :P Here's an attempt at flash NON-fiction...]
Sitting cross-legged on the oak bench allowed what little breeze there was to enter between my thighs, a tender gesture of cooling relief to the genitals after walking the length of Central Avenue.
"The thing is, it's been a long time since I traveled with anyone across the country. Thirty two states I've done completely on my own. But when I did have someone I could travel with, it was nice. I liked the company. That's why I'm putting it out there; I need a wingman. A travel buddy. I figured since you've been trying to get out of town for awhile and you really don't care where you're going, as long as it's outside Florida, I should give you a try, you know, see if you can really hang the way I need you to hang."
She nods with understanding, then cranes her neck.
"You see, I have severe trust issues, like, SEVERE. I'm always the go-to person, the rely on person, the one who has to start and end the fights, you know…"
"The Protector type."
"I can see that about you."
"Well, I'm a practical person."
Her order arrives but she's not touching it. I float my left hand over her tray and insist, nonverbally, she start, but she waves me off, nonverbally saying, I can wait.
"You have to understand when I'm out on my own, I do whatever I want. I engage whoever I want. I plan to be in a state of constant discovery. If not discovering new places and scenery, then discovering how far over the edge can I push someone."
Now that was a deliberate line because I want to see her reaction. Instead, she offers this:
"I can tell you're the kind of person who does things within reason."
"And if you can reason an action, you'll do it."
"Also yes. And I need you to go along with it, see? Something's going down, I give you an instruction, there's no time for discussion, you do it, you're in, you're out. Just like that."
"Uh huh."
"Like, if I call your phone, you NEED to pick it up."
"Right, because if we're travelling together, what other reason can there be for you to call?"
"Exactly! And if I'm on the other end and I say, 'go to the car, get the tire iron, bring it to me now!' you gotta do it."
Her face turns up, and she makes a half snarl, half sneeze expression to her right side.
"I'd come back with like, seven tire irons because I wouldn't know which one you'd prefer."
Left fist into right cupped hand signaled confidence in this proselyte possible progeny.
"Right! And if I only need one, you throw the rest!"
She stands and mimics one crazed urban ninja, tossing tire irons like shurikens.
My order is delivered to the table. The tattoo-sleeved, dark-haired, bearded fella would have been flirtable had I not caught the flatness of his ass.
I part my meal, she divvies hers, and we share plates across the table…
This morning's dream I was revisiting one of the locations where I was sourcing data for my Penn State University graduate research. What played back was the moment I visited with an informant, an octogenarian, a lifetime resident of the town, and his face when I entered his living room. He was standing, but you could tell it was difficult for him to remain standing, so I insisted we sit after he clasped my hand in greeting. You could tell his wife at this stage in their marriage had succumbed to full-time care-taking, as she shook her head at him and told him to stop staring. But his face, dear reader, it was the most awesome face I've ever observed! His blue eyes were wide and brilliant, the lines around them were lifted, his smile was half mooned and fixed in awe. Although his skin was liver splotched and Northern Tier pale, there was a glow. I've never experienced such genuine appreciation for my presence, and I doubt I ever will again. The glow, his glow, was what woke me up this morning, necessary after quite a tumultuous week.
So I was motivated to look up Ye Olde Thesis, the first work I published as an adult. Mom has a hardback copy, the other, for whatever reason, my ex insisted on keeping. But it is a public work, and accessible on the Webby Web, and if you are in need of a Dostoevsky-esque work to help you get to sleep, feel free to download: https://etda.libraries.psu.edu/paper/8320/
Appendix C has all the phenomenological aspects of my research experience, but my fave part is the thesis conclusion. I've cut and pasted it for you here, and bear in mind, this was my mindset seven years ago as of this post. My writing style is much sharper and I'm less idealistic, but the question, Can communication technology bring communities together? is still very much fresh in my mind:
I don't consider this research as "work". It is and ultimately this is merely
data collection. But for me, this thesis is insight to the rural way of life, the
culture of PA and an overall validation that I'm doing my part to positively
contribute to a rural dweller's well-being.
I kept a thesis journal the entire time at Penn State University. When it
came time to prepare this reflection, I sat and read all my entries. It was
humorous and insightful and depressing all at the same time. I found the entry
that described this idea about communication technology and its impact on
society. To read it now after the research experience is humbling. Where my
mind was at then and where my mind is now is the same, except now I can run
my mouth and use science to back it up!
I close this thesis with the actual journal
May 20, 2007: Discovery. I haven't really accomplished a damn
thing in the realm of this MS other than realizing how frightened I
am of people that are genuinely smarter than me. As much as I
avoid competition I find that it's essential in order to get things
done around here.
I've whined and moped enough. Feigned interest and appreciation
enough. There's plenty of people leaving this institution that truly
deserve the degrees they are awarded. I, on the other hand, am
sitting here waiting for the other shoe to drop.
Let's face it: the two things you are good at is 1) telling people what
to do and 2) running your mouth as if you know what you're talking
about. How transparent do you want to continue to be?
What do I like? I like the way I was raised; amongst different
groups of people within a very isolated community. I like to
interface with people, and I seek out those that have something
strikingly different about them. I like to fix things and situations
because I tend to be the one in the room least likely to panic. I want
to help. I always want to help, to the point where I sacrifice my
efforts for the greater good.
I'm a fan of technology related to communication. The Internet,
cell phones, GPS, GIS; it's all useful. I don't care to know how it
works; not anymore anyways. But I have this notion that of all
technological advancements afforded to us, communication
technology has helped a good majority of us to connect with one
So can communication technology bring communities together? I
think of how I grew up on base and had to correspond via letters
and anxiously wait for a response. I listened to local radio stations
and we watched European and AFN channels on TV. Now, with the
advancements in technology, the means of communicating have
garnered a quicker response time and have brought separated lives
much more closer [sic], even if in all dimensions except physical.
I figure that I've learned more about rural communities to respect
them and to certify that these areas are enriched by many aspects.
I think by investing in rural communities, by making communication
technology more assessable, community and economic growth can
But of course, what is most cherished about these neighborhoods is
that there is low reliance on mechanisms that speed processes
along. Even in that one reading where the guy had to invest in
another phone line since his ordering system was upgraded by his
distributor, people are really ambivalent of investing in anything
that changes their way of life. So how do you "sell" communication
technology in a tradition-heavy, low maintenance community? Will
the investments benefit a few? How will local government and
businesses assist in this investment? What would it do to a
community's culture?
I feel that collaboration has proved in many dimensions the
capability of people to change for the greater good. I think people
that dwell in rural areas are afraid of what they do not know, and
naturally shy away from strange technology. We also are
experiencing a population aging and thus contributing to the local
economy by lesser and lesser means.
Communities that have similar issues but are only limited by
distance can develop a grass-roots e-organization with the ability to
talk to each other on how to manage similar problems. I think
about the distances that female Australian farmers travel just so
they can carry dialogue and not feel so alone in the world given
their regional isolation. We need to know that we aren't alone in
this big world. We can shatter barriers by promoting dialogue
across shoulders without the stigmas of physical features. And I
think when people are given an opportunity to learn from one
another without working thru a middle man (like extension offices
or government agencies) we feel a sense of empowerment and
capability. And from there, anything seems possible. And
communication tools like the Internet can help.
That sounds about right. –IMES

Gophers Register 230 For Be The Match
April 15, 2014
The University of Minnesota football team hosted a Be the Match drive today in the Great Hall of the Coffman Memorial Union.
This is the second straight year that the Gophers have partnered with Be The Match, which is operated by the National Marrow Donor Program and helps patients receive life-saving transplants. They are dedicated to raising awareness and funds needed to help all patients get the transplant they need.
The Gophers helped register more than 230 people, after only 75 signed up last year.
Be The Match focuses on finding potential donors ages 18-44, so it is critical that they register as many college students as possible. Their research shows that younger donors are best for patients because they provide the greatest chance for transplant success. Donors between the ages of 18 and 44 are asked to donate more than 90% of the time.

Earlier this month, Bloomberg reported that John Paulson was considering making Puerto Rico his home for a little more than half the year, having been intrigued by the idea of working from the beach and not paying capital gains taxes. For its part, PR was pretty excited about the prospect of the hedge fund manager calling the island home on tax forms, as his presence would create a much needed you scratch our back we'll scratch yours situation for the local economy. And while a spokesperson for Paulson has categorically crushed the dreams of the Commonwealth, apparently everyone has gotten over it pretty quickly and would like to make it clear that anyone with money to spend is welcome, nay, encouraged to come on down. Millionaires would be good, billionaires are better, but beggars/choosers/etc. Read more »

Maxpedition cap Cap #CAPCAP
Maxpedition cap Cap #CAPCAP
$ 7.99
capCAP is the civilized 2-in-1 accessory cap for Nalgene wide-mouth drink bottles.
Most wide-mouth bottles are easy to fill and clean, but the standard opening is too big to drink from easily without spilling. Narrow-mouth bottles are great to drink from but you can forget about putting ice cubes in them, let alone clean them. And bottle inserts don't really fix a spout that was never meant for daily drinking.
capCAP offers the best of both worlds:
Drink spill-free through the small spout, and clean and fill with ease with the large cap. The green, rubberized small cap is easy to grip, even with gloves on. And the wide, rounded strap is more comfortable to hold.
capCAP is 100% Polycarbonate-free and 100% BPA-free. Both caps are made with FDA-approved food-safe polypropylene (#5) plastic.
*capCAP does not include a bottle which must be purchased separately.

Earlier this week, a video of Texas bride Ashley Richmond's wedding dance with her dad, David Sparks, went viral and was quickly hailed as the greatest father daughter wedding dance ever.
Their four-and-a-half minute routine started with a classic father-daughter song, "My Girl" by the Temptations. But before long, the pair launched into a hilarious—and impressive!—choreographed routine that cycled through 10 different songs, from Motown classics to Beyoncé.
We love how Dad looked a little nervous in the beginning, but then he really got into it!
But the fun didn't stop there; Ashley and David were invited to appear on Good Morning America this morning, where they re-created their dance in the middle of Times Square!
What do you think—is this the best father-daughter dance ever?

Wal-Mart says retail plans with India's Bharti 'not tenable'
NUSA DUA, Indonesia
NUSA DUA, Indonesia (Reuters) - Wal-Mart Stores Inc's (WMT.N) retail plans with India partner Bharti Enterprises are "not tenable" and both sides are looking for the best way to move forward, an executive with the U.S. retailer told Reuters.
Wal-Mart was expected to make a decision on its Indian retail plans later this month and Bharti will accordingly decide if those plans match its overall retail ambitions.
"We created a franchise in retail with Bharti in the hopes that there could be a potential freeing up (of foreign direct investment) that would allow it to potentially be the base of the business. But frankly, the FDI has passed," said Wal-Mart Asia Chief Executive Scott Price on the sidelines of the APEC conference in Bali, Indonesia
"That means the existing franchise to Bharti is not tenable as the base. What we are talking about with Bharti is what we do with that business."
Wal-Mart has an equal joint venture with Bharti under which it runs its Best Price Modern Wholesale Stores in India and the U.S. retailer last year called Bharti its "natural partner" to open its retail stores in the country.
In July, Reuters reported Bharti was looking to exit its joint venture with Wal-Mart.
India permitted foreign retailers to own 51 percent of their Indian operations in September 2012, but ambiguity around rules governing the policy has ensured no foreign retailer has so far applied to enter the country.
"I don't see how any foreign retailer can comply and quite honestly no domestic retailer is complying either," Price said.
The biggest stumbling block for companies has been the government's requirement that 30 percent of their products be sourced locally.
Despite the uncertainty over the retail business, Price said the world's largest retailer was not planning on leaving India and was actually hoping to expand its wholesale business.
"We are committed to India and we are not thinking of leaving India anytime soon," he said.
Price also said Wal-Mart had no immediate acquisition plans in China but was keeping its eyes open for opportunities.
The U.S. retailer also had no plans for expansion into Thailand or Indonesia, two countries where supermarkets have faced tough competition from local mini-markets.

Tusher canyon is a traditional climbing area, and offers a ton of untouched rock. There are a couple of summits in the canyon, and plenty of solid cracks. The climbing in Tusher is in the early stages (there are very few fixed pieces). This makes for well thought out and exciting descents. Of the routes we have put up in the area we have still yet to use anything fixed. Some classics are Waldens Room on the House of Putterman, Hypercrack on Merrimac Butte, and Echo Pinnacle. The rock is mostly friendly on the hands but you will find the sandpaper now and then. The camping is free but please leave no trace, this is a great area and I would hate to see it restricted.
Getting There
Take the highway north out of Moab for about thirteen miles, at mile marker 14 or thereabouts Mill Creek road will be on your left. Cross the tracks and continue down the dirt road. At the first Y take a right and keep going to another Y. Follow the sign to the Merrimac jeep trail. The road will keep going west and dump you into the wash. Drive the wash until you have to stop after a half mile. A 4WD with good clearance can get into Tusher, but low clearance vehicles shouldn't even try. If walking, after two miles you will see an open canyon on the right (House Of Putterman area - it is a fat tower with a goose neck shape on top), and if you keep going another mile and a half and you will hit the Echo Pinnacle area. Merrimac and Monitor Buttes are another half mile past that. E-mail me and I can send a better description of the directions.

Latest Headlines
Isis, the nationwide m-commerce network spearheaded by Verizon Wireless, AT&T Mobility and T-Mobile USA, is reportedly poised to begin consumer trials in the Salt Lake City and Austin, Texas markets on August 20.
A couple months ago, a friend of mine was using her iPad while riding the Metro to work when a teenager tried to tear it out of her hands at a station stop. The effrontery of the attack--during rush hour, with a lot of people around to witness it--was particularly disconcerting, but evidently this kind of "Apple picking" is becoming commonplace in broad daylight, in heavily populated places around the country.
AT&T's new Mobile Share data plan may work well for families looking to save on the rising costs of mobile data consumption, but at a cap of 10 devices, the plan is not ideal for most enterprises.
The shared data plan that AT&T unveiled today--like a similar plan from Verizon--offers significant benefits for consumers and very small businesses, but it isn't likely to save most companies money, warns Eric Zeman at InformationWeek.
Samsung Electronics is teaming with AT&T Mobility to introduce carrier billing options to the manufacturer's Media Hub video-on-demand entertainment service.
AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson said Tuesday the company is still mulling a proposal to charge application developers for data consumed by customers, stating that some content providers have asked the operator to implement the change.
Verizon Wireless and AT&T both announced major expansions to their LTE networks in the U.S., giving customers faster wireless access in new areas.
AT&T is expanding its U-verse TV applications for Apple's iOS platform, adding content from a number of premium channels and integrating new second-screen interactive experiences.
AT&T said during an analyst event held at its network operations center in Bedminster, N.J., this week that the number of its business customer who have adopted tablet PCs surged almost 200 percent between the first quarter of 2011 and the first quarter of 2012. The 194 percent year-over-year jump in tablet adoption is just one of the market indicators that has AT&T focusing increasingly on the enterprise.
AT&T Mobility is expanding its Toggle bring-your-own-device initiative in an effort to help businesses and employees separate work-related mobile data and applications from personal activities.

Beautification funds to help downtown
A $380,000 beautification project in downtown Oceanside, including new walkways, has been unveiled by the Town of Hempstead.
The project was funded mostly from money secured by state Sen. Dean Skelos (R-Rockville Centre), according to a town news release; federal funds covered the rest of the cost.
Hempstead did not have to provide any funding for the project, town spokesman Mike Deery said.
Along with the walkways, the project includes brick paving stones, Victorian lighting and new trash cans on the west side of Long Beach Road, between Tilrose Avenue and Poole Street, the release said.
Deery said construction is nearly complete. All that's left is the decorative lighting for the streetscape, and planting trees. Once the lights and trees are delivered, they can be installed immediately, he said.
The project is one of several to revamp Oceanside that have been spearheaded by Town Supervisor Kate Murray and Senior Councilman Anthony J. Santino, the release said.
"Beautifying our downtowns is a welcome addition to our commercial areas for residents, business owners and shoppers," Murray said in a statement. "This busy thoroughfare in Oceanside will certainly benefit from these enhancements."

Electric fan blowing ferocious breath, standing down wind of this smoking comal I am a dragon breathing fire. Nothing can touch this pungent aroma. Smoke cleanses me like cedar in the sweat lodge, creates tears and heat and builds strength in the hands and lungs of whoever handles it. In this mornings blessing, many chiles create the flavors of Mexico in my kitchen. When I close my eyes I forget where I am. And all day I smell like my memories of cooking fires.
La Cosecha (the harvest)
In the mornings I wake up early before it's hot. Before the children. I make tamales.
By mid morning my house feels like a sweat lodge. It's ninety degrees outside, with the steaming pots my kitchen is hotter. Bare feet throbbing, aching back, swollen baby belly stained red from bumping into so much chile. This is what it feels like to want something so much you're willing to work.
Seven days a week I feed the people who feed you. Leaving homes and families to work impossibly long hours in unforgiving heat until there is no more work. From my kitchen I am working the harvest too.
Clothes wet with sweat, tamales steaming, I escape the sweltering confines of my kitchen. I find water. Water to wash the clothes, water to wash the diapers, water to wash the dishes. Buckets of water. Baskets of wet things to hang on the line. Breaking ice chunks from frozen pots to fill the coolers later. Then back to my kitchen. More tamales.
Sitting in the passenger seat of my car I can feel the baby moving. Maybe the first time I've sat down all day, time is passing quickly now. "Tamales! Tamales!" he yells out the window as we slowly cruise the dirt road stirring up dust. "Salsa roja! Refresco!" Smiling, they wave and he stops. He passes my hot tamales from the buckets into berry stained hands. Then ice cold coca colas from the cooler. The money is good. Watching the people enjoy my food is better. Everyone laughs and smiles at our sticky kids eating popcicles in the back seat. This is as real as it gets.
We drive on until the buckets are empty and our pockets are full. Everyone feels good. The kids run up and down the rows of berries, kicking up clouds of dust, stopping every once in a while to eat a few berries. We sit on the back of the car drinking cold sodas watching them in the orange evening light. This is the life. This feeling.
Sunlight fading and tired from the long hot summer day, we drive home and do it all again.
5 is now 6
The catalyst
For months Mexico has been on the back burner, barely simmering. Sometimes forgotten for weeks. When reality shifted and I realized we easily had another year here, I started to ground and put down roots again. I made our temporary (longer term) rental home cozy and reinvested in many of the things I had given away. In this land of over abundance, these things were easy to come by. In spring we cleared a small patch of land and planted a nice little organic garden with veggies, herbs and flowers. For months I've been weeding, watering and watching it grow. Finally my effort is beginning to pay off and for a few weeks I have been enjoying our first small harvests.
Summer solstice morning. Sun is shining strong, windows wide open, sitting down for breakfast with the kids. The breeze brings in a strange smell… A swimming pool, new plastic… What is that? V looks out the back window to the field just past our little garden and quickly closes it. Without saying a word, he moves around the house closing every window. I look out and see the crop sprayer. It is just on the other side of the little wood country fence. Fifteen feet away from my organic food, kids playground and grass we play in everyday.
Before I could think I found myself in the driveway, children underfoot, watching in horror as the tractor arms spread out and prepared to spray their poison. I picked up the largest rock I could find, raised it over my head and began roaring at the man in the drivers seat. He did not hear me. The mist began again. This was not a mountain lion or a hungry bear. I realized I must have looked crazy brandishing stones against this agricultural machine. I knew I could do nothing to stop it. Instead we got in the car and drove away.
I cried. For a long time. My garden was my solace, a compromise that made the extra time here ok. Now it was gone.
I researched the specific herbicide by name, read more than anyone ever should about such things and confirmed the extent of the damage done. This product is not meant to be sprayed on food or around humans. It destroys food crops, causes developmental delays, irreparable respiratory damage and hormone disruption among many other unthinkable things. Even when not sprayed directly, being innocently caught in the drift is enough. And it takes weeks to breakdown.
This problem is so much bigger than me and my yard and my kids. Industrial agriculture is an incomprehensibly huge disaster with so many pieces to its destructive puzzle.There is no escaping it.
Here. There is no escaping it here.
And so it goes my focus has shifted again. Mexico may be the sweet relief I have been searching for…
With all the drama this seeps and more, this feels like a personal attack. I am fearless in the face of danger. Every day, with every fiber of my being, every action I make creates and supports life and beauty. My children, my cooking, my planting, my art… It is all life. I create. I nurture. I heal. I am weaving the fabric of reality, strand by strand.
Now the universe is calling my bluff. Daring me to run head on into my dreams. Calling me out to walk the talk.
V's parents have been saving their original seeds for generations. In those rural, rolling mountains the farming is still done the old way. Not because organic is better, but because the farmers are poor and cannot afford herbicides. They would sooner buy a tractor or a cow or shoes for their kids. The water is clean, you can drink it where it bubbles out of the rocks. The animals graze on grass free from fences. They have not adopted the industrial ways of living that are so ingrained here.
So here I am, at the peak of this years light, waiting again for the deepest darkness of the year, so that I can finally release and begin again.
Go play outside
Lately I have been overtaken with the insatiable desire to linger in the raw, unmatched beauty of wild nature. Few things in life invite me to lose myself so completely as the wind in the trees, sparkling sunlight on water or the warm sweet smell that fills the forest in spring time. The impossibly perfect imperfections, elaborate iterations mingling with the empty spaces. The wilds of nature are my sanctuary, my rejuvenation, my inner peace. It is where I know myself and remember why I am. When these holy places call to me I have no choice but to listen. Then I am free.
Planting Maiz (a love story)
Where I am going the people still touch the earth. If I had not seen it myself, I would not believe that people still live and farm this way. They hold each seed in their hand, like their grandparents did. They plow the valley with their horses, listening to the birds and roosters and sheep sing. Your ancestors survived because they were proud keepers of this sacred maiz. And now so are you.
From the windows of our little brick house you can see the straight lines in the dirt. You can hear the men laughing as they sit beneath the shade trees enjoying their lunch. The horses stand and wait, drinking water. Children run through the dirt kicking over the tiny mountains of freshly plowed earth. The sun is shining. This is life.
Every man carries a bag of seeds. They walk down the rows dropping seeds, one by one, kicking the dirt over the top with their feet. The valley is enormous and it is all planted this way. Each seed saved over from the year before. Footprints moving along the rows, quietly replanting what has grown before… Your great grandparents held these same seeds. Their babies were nourished from the same sun and water still sleeping inside this corn. Passed down from their hands and into yours. To awaken with your heart beat, your breath.
This corn will feed many families. We do not have money, but we have all this corn. We are rich.
I remember how we all climbed into the old pick up truck last year and drove down into the valley to check the corn. It was nearly harvest time. They brought the fresh ears of blue corn to Abuelita and I watched her take the kernels off with her wrinkled fingers and tuck them into her apron pockets. We had blue corn tortillas for dinner that night.
The people here laugh and smile more and feel life in a way that somehow eludes most of us living in the western world. Maybe they are lucky. Or maybe they know that they are taking in all the love their grandfathers have for them, consuming their entire history, ancestry, pride, and continuing the cycle with love for their children each and every time they eat their fresh corn tortillas.

McALESTER, Oklahoma — A judge has declared a mistrial after jurors deadlocked in the trial for a former Pittsburg County Court drug court coordinator accused of embezzling money.
Angela Marcum had been charged with embezzlement of public money and with destroying or hiding a public record. Marcum had pleaded not guilty to the charges.
The McAlester News-Capital reports (http://bit.ly/1pEVaGi ) District Judge Ken Adair declared a mistrial early Saturday after the 12-member jury said it had deadlocked after hearing more than seven days of testimony.
Prosecutors argued Marcum was required to make daily deposits of money collected from drug court participants to the county treasurer's office. They say thousands of dollars was never deposited.
Marcum's attorney had countered that her client was not the only person who had access to the drug court money.
