warping in heat?
Posted by: paddlingpika on Apr-18-13 11:57 AM (EST)
How is the kayak sitting on the cart - how much of the hull is supported? I don't know anything about your particular kayak or cart, but I'd be cautious about leaving a boat sitting outside in summer heat in a position where its weight is supported on just a small area of the hull bottom. With some plastic hulls this might cause warping. Don't know if this would be a problem in your case, but it is something to consider.

The Fourth Annual Wild Goose Festival Kicks Off in North Carolina
August 8, 2013 by Candace Gingrich, Associate Director, Youth and Campus Engagement Program
The fourth Annual Wild Goose Festival: Not necessarily something you think that Religion & Faith Director Sharon Groves and I would be into. But what if you knew that it was over 3,000 people gathered at the "intersection of justice, spirituality, music and art"? Now you get it.
The festival in Hot Springs, NC, opened today and I'm happy to say that our tent is close enough to see the main stage where the Indigo Girls will be playing. Wait, did I forget to mention that part?
In addition to the outstanding musicians - including my niece, Suzi Brown, the reason I learned of Wild Goose in the first place - Wild Goose inspires interfaith, intercultural and interclass dialogue, and welcomes those who are "captivated and challenged by the call of radical humanity, and who seek to celebrate diversity and promote the common good".
Today I met an amazing array of individuals from Toronto to Oklahoma, from all faiths & backgrounds. It was a bonus to see Religion & Faith intern alum, Chris Parks. I'm looking forward to a full day of amazingness tomorrow, including a discussion that Sharon organized and is moderating, "We Are All One": Southern Faith Leaders Re-framing the Work for Freedom and Justice." Blessed be.

GreatSchools Rating
There are no reviews yet
for this school. Be the first!
I have been struggling with trying to get help for my son since he started school. He was in title reading up until this school year and with some pushing I was able to get him some RTI speech services for one year. He is diagnosed with ADHD and Central Auditory Processing Delay and is barely passing reading, yet he gets no assistance outside of the regular classroom. I feel that the school district has continually and is continually dropping the ball with regards to my son and his rights to a fair and appropriate education. If it wasn't for the last two regular classroom teachers he has had going above and beyond for him he wouldn't be doing as well as he is now.

Hi Folks! Hey Fellas! Where have you hidden our Global Warming? We want it back! Remember last year at this time? We had seen sunshine! Often! Blue skies, too. We were mowing our lawns for the second or third time of the season. Snow was long gone. There were flowers blooming outdoors . A few had even bloomed in March. We were worried about drought, and rightly so. Was starting to believe last year that Global Warming might be more than a figment of some imaginations, that perhaps it was more than a theory designed to win Nobel Peace Prizes for people who didnt deserve them and speaking engagements to meetings in exotic locales for people who didnt know what they were talking about. But no. Once again, as usual, the old farmers were right. Everything is a cycle. This year were still shoveling snow, still getting stuck in the mud, still wearing gloves and winter coats. And its nearly half past April. Weather is fickle. We humans are so puny in the whole scheme of things that nothing we do is going to change the climate on a world wide scale unless God wants it to happen. Last year was actually wondering if that might be just what He had in mind. After all, He promised never again to destroy the world by a flood, but never heard that He promised not to cook this old Earth and everyone on it. MOVING ON Weather or not, the calendar moves on even if Winter refuses to budge. Income Tax filing deadline - April 15 - is coming on fast. The season for Bridal Showers is starting, and June weddings arent far behind. Graduation parties are only about six weeks away. IT IS REALLY SPRING Noted last week that the first frozen robins of the season had been spotted in TIMESland, but now we know for sure Spring has really sprung. Never mind the remains of that white blanket on the ground. Means nothing. Its spring. Son Tom spotted the first mosquito of the season on Friday! And I was stuck in the driveway three times over the weekend. SPEAKING OF TAXES Speaking of income taxes, time is getting short, but there are numerous options for free filing on the web, in addition to Turbo Tax and the free Wisconsin and IRS sites. According to NAPS, a national news clipping service, TaxACT offers a free tax return checklist at www.taxact.com/checklist. You can prepare, print and e-file federal returns free with Tax Act Free Federal Edition, same site. Or if you prefer, NAPS advises that free, individualized tax preparation is available to low and moderate income taxpayers, particularly those aged 60 and older, from the volunteer-based AARP Foundation Tax-Aide program. Learn more at www.aarp.org/findtaxhelp or call 888-227-7669. If you cant get your taxes done by April 15, pay whatever amount you think is due and file an automatic extension request to avoid penalties. Incidentally, do send money. As an unknown commentator remarked, It would be nice if we could all pay our taxes with a smile, but normally cash is required. GRIN AND BEAR IT Nobody likes paying taxes, but those who will get refunds, especially if they didnt pay anything in the first place, dont mind filing them. The rest of us do, but we find ways to laugh about it anyway. This is not a new problem. Mark Twain once said hed never use profanity if it werent for house rent and taxes. J. Paul Getty advised, If you get up early, work late, and pay your taxes, you will get ahead if you strike oil. NO ESCAPE Maybe there really is no escape. One unidentified comedian remarked that the wages of sin are death, but by the time taxes are taken out, its just sort of a tired feeling. The income tax, property tax, and sales tax get you coming and going, and then the inheritance tax gets you after youve gone. ON THE DEFICIT Our national deficit is horrendous, and getting worse, but once again we find a way to laugh through our tears. Sam Ewing says, the government deficit is the difference between the amount of money the government spends and the amount it has the nerve to collect. Worries about the national debt arent new either. It was Herbert Hoover who said many years ago, Blessed are the young, for they shall inherit the national debt. Hey! He was talking about us. And now were passing that inheritance along to our children. WEIGHTY SUBJECTS If youre like me, you suffer a major culture shock the first time you dress in light weight summer garb and then look in the mirror. The really, really bad thought is you might want to wear a swim suit in about two months. Those lucky bears sleep all winter, get rid of their wrinkles, and lose all the pounds they put on in fall. Then they wake up and get to eat all summer. Not so with humans. Most of us put on pounds during the semi-hibernation of winter. Spring means its time to turn into losers, at least for a while. Getting out of shape over winter is bad enough, but the rest isnt pretty either. Skin gets dried out from over heated rooms, hair is duller, eyes bulge from too much TV, and bodies show all kinds of effects from spending winter on the couch. Time to reform. Start a daily exercise regimen slowly. Cant walk much outdoors yet, at least in the country, but can touch toes, do windmills, lift mini weights and ride an exercycle if you have one. Better yet, find a place with live music and go dancing. Or turn on the radio and dance at home. Swear off carbs for a while. Baste the old bod with moisturizing lotion. Give yourself a facial. And go on the Cabbage Soup Diet for a week or two. Works like a spring tonic to brighten the complexion, shrink the waistline, and boost energy levels. And it doesnt cost much. CABBAGE SOUP Eat as much as you want, but at least three times a day, once before each meal. No snacking other than the soup. There are different rules, but what has worked for me is to add browned hamburger to the soup, with pan drippings if its quite lean, on the third and sixth days. Eat beef, eggs, or other protein foods with the soup on Day Seven, and then start over again if you need to go another round. 1 Green Pepper 1 Large Onion, chopped 1 package dry onion soup mix 1 big green head of cabbage 1 package frozen chopped spinach 48 ounces V-8 Juice 4 cups water 1 tablespoon olive oil 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce Cut vegetables, including the cabbage, into small pieces. Sauté the onion in the olive oil for two minutes, then add the celery and peppers and sauté for 4 minutes more. Add the water, V-8 juice, onion soup mix, hot sauce and tomatoes. Bring the whole mixture (which now includes everything but the spinach and cabbage) to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and continue cooking for about 30 minutes. Add the cabbage and cook another 20 minutes, and then add the spinach and cook 10 minutes more. GUN CONTROL We keep hearing demands from misguided politicians for more gun control laws. Of course, their arguments are more heated in the wake of a mass shooting incident. Now we hear about multiple stabbings on a Texas university campus by a disgruntled student wielding an Exacto knife! Wonder if there will be a great hue and cry for knife control laws? Maybe some Congressmen will demand that stores sell knives without blades, or pass a law requiring a background check before you can buy a knife, especially one with pointy tip - like a paring knife or a French chefs knife. By the way - Where has all the ammunition gone? Nobody seems to have any to sell. They dont need laws. Just cut off supply. COOKIN TIME Chill winds blow, but appetites want fresh flavors and new treats. Still cool enough to make a warming bowl of soup a treat. MEXICAN CHICKEN SOUP The original recipe for this deliciously different south of the border soup called for things like boniato (a type of sweet potato), yucca root (seems to be a cross between a white and sweet potato) and malanga, another south American root vegetable. On advice of a famed chef, those hard to find ingredients are replaced with sweet potatoes, white potatoes, parsnips and carrots. 2 pounds diced chicken, cooked or not 2 tablespoons salad oil 2 quarts chicken stock 1 cup diced onion 1 tablespoon chopped garlic 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro (or 1 teaspoon crumbled, dried cilantro) 1 cup diced peeled sweet potatoes 1 cup peeled diced regular potatoes 1 cup diced or sliced parsnips 1/2 cup sliced or diced carrots 1/2 cup sliced and diced celery Juice of one lime 1/4 cup small uncooked pasta (alphabets) 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme, crumbled Salt and pepper to taste Dash red or cayenne pepper, or to taste Cut the chicken into small 1-inch cubes, and prepare the vegetables. Heat the oil in a large soup kettle and add onions, celery, garlic and thyme. (Sprinkle in some black pepper, too.) Cook for about two minutes, so the onions get translucent but not brown. Add the chicken pieces and let them start to brown just a little. (If youre using raw chicken, white meat works best. Otherwise cook it a little longer.) Add everything else, except the lime juice and the pasta. Give it a good stir, bring back to a boil and simmer about 30 minutes over medium heat. (Longer doesnt hurt.) Add the pasta and cook another five to seven minutes, then add the lime juice and as much salt and pepper as you feel it needs. Good with corn bread, especially the kind made with bacon, cheese and green chilies. CHEESY BACON CORNBREAD Recipe serves 12, and needs to be cooked in a large cast iron skillet, or a heavy stainless one with an oven-proof handle. 5 slices bacon 3 cups flour 1 cup yellow cornmeal 1/4 cup white sugar 2 tablespoons baking powder 2 teaspoons salt 1 cup milk 1 cup buttermilk (or add 2 tablespoons white vinegar to scant cup whole milk) 1 cup butter, melted 3 extra large eggs, lightly beaten 8 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese 1 small can diced jalapeno peppers Combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Whisk milk, buttermilk, butter, eggs and peppers in another bowl; stir milk mixture into the flour mixture until just combined. Batter will be slightly lumpy. Fold in Cheddar cheese. Allow batter to rest at room temperature for about 15 minutes. While the batter rests,turn oven to 350 degrees to preheat. Fry the bacon in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until crisp and evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Do not let the drippings burn. Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, and leave the bacon grease in the skillet. Put the skillet into the oven to keep it hot. Crumble the bacon, and if it wont crumble, cut it into dice. Take skillet from the oven, pour in the batter, and sprinkle the bacon all over the top, gently pressing it into the batter. Bake about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for maybe 10 minutes before serving. BREAKFAST GRANOLA Anyone following a high-fiber diet would do well to try this recipe for a breakfast staple thats high in flavor, fiber and nutrition. Unlike some of the versions you buy, this granola is made entirely of good natural ingredients. Olive oil and oatmeal are both recognized as being beneficial to the heart. Recipe comes courtesy of Barb Johnston, who says she has this granola or a fruitless variation every morning for breakfast, and she still makes it herself. At age 97 she remains independent, healthy, alert and slim, so she must be doing something right. Mrs. Johnston said she generally leaves the dried fruit out, and eats it with applesauce, rhubarb sauce, sweetened peaches or strawberries or other fruit juice instead of milk. The kids will probably love eating the granola dry, as a finger food. 8 cups old-fashioned oatmeal 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 tablespoon vanilla 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon honey/2 cup each almonds, walnuts and pecans (Id use sliced almonds and chopped nuts, but the recipe doesnt specify them) 1/2 cup each raisins, craisins or whatever other dried fruit you want (or none) Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Combine oatmeal, oil, vanilla and honey. Lightly oil a baking sheet with either cooking spray or olive oil. Combine the oats, oil, vanilla and honey. Mix well and spread in a single layer on the prepared balking sheet. Bake 10 minutes, and stir in the nuts. Bake 20 more minutes stirring and turning every 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool on the baking sheet. Stir in the dried fruits. Store in an air tight container. Serve with milk, or fruit sauce or juice. BLUEBERRY TORTE Co-worker Dick Tessier and his wife Judy were kind enough to share this recipe for one of his favorite desserts. Fresh blueberries wont be available for a while yet, but we can savor the flavor without the hard work in this luscious creamy torte. It uses dry Dream Whip packets rather than the prepared frozen whipped topping, and yes, for those who havent used it for years, the product is still available. Crust: 2 cups crushed graham crackers 1/2 cup sugar 1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 13X9 pan with buttery flavored cooking spray. Mix together the crust ingredients. Reserve a half cup or so of crumbs and press the remainder evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes. Remove from oven and cool completely. Filling: 2 packages Dream Whip 1 cup milk 1 teaspoon vanilla 1/2 cup powdered sugar 8 ounce package cream cheese 2 cans blueberry pie filling Beat the Dream Whip, milk and vanilla together until thick enough for soft peaks to form. Then add the half cup powdered sugar. When that is beaten in well beat in the cream cheese a little at a time until the entire mixture is smooth and thick. Spread half of this mixture on the cooled graham cracker crust, and on top of that put the blueberry pie filling. Top with the rest of the cream cheese mixture, and sprinkle the reserved graham cracker crumbs. Cover and chill well before slicing into wedges or squares to serve. Thought for the week: Keep smiling and people will wonder what youve been up to. Laugh at yourself, make others laugh with you, and youll always have friends. As actress Salma Hayek once said, Life is tough, but if you have the ability to laugh at it you have the ability to enjoy it. (This column is written by Shirley Prudhomme of Crivitz.

I have experimented with this today, using water. I stuck a short (1 and 1/2 inch) piece of 5/16 I.D. tubing into the 3/8 I.D. tubing from my auto-siphon and attached another piece of 3/8 tubing about 2 and 1/2 feet long to the end of the 5/16 tube. I shoved each end of the 5/16 tubing about 3/8 inch up into the 3/8 tubing to leave about 3/4 inch of the 5/16 tubing exposed. It fits tightly enough that I didn't even need to use any hose clamps. I then drilled a single hole in the 5/16 I.D. tubing using a 3/32 inch drill bit (the actual hole diameter came out about 1/16 inch after the vinyl closed back up a little around the hole. This seems to work pretty well. With the exit from the tubing at the bottom of the carboy, the top surface of the water was bubbling - this seems like it would be better than just letting the stream fall down into the carboy from the top, though it might not really make much difference. I couldn't detect any significant difference in the amount of air being pulled into the tubing with the exit at the top or under water at the bottom of the carboy.
Forget my question. Figured it out.

Hey all I'm having issues with mine.
I have 1/2" ID hoses on my pump, going into a 1/4" ID CFC (3/8" copper refrigeration tubing) then into 3/8" ID silicone tubing and then through a copper 1/4" ID tube with a 1/16" venturi hole in it.
I get water coming out the little hole as well as the end of the tube. I've also tried this with more 3/8" ID tubing on the other end of the copper piece.
Is it a problem with the copper tubing?

I had problems like that at first. Part of it was the orientation of the line, where the hole was drilled, and how much free fall the line had after the hole. You may have to try some different scenarios.
I had a short section on after the copper tube, but that didn't seem to help. Bernoulli's Principle should work no matter if it is a siphon or pump. All the schematics I see online though have a nice sloped transition from the larger tube to the smaller one to speed up the liquid.
One thing I did notice is that I didn't have my 3/8" ID silicone tube very well attached to the copper and it would actually suck in air through that faulty connection, but it would still normally dribble water out of the 1/16" hole. I wonder if it has to do with resistance after the hole, and the inside of the hole not being smooth.
I'll be trying other configurations tonight.

NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 11/06/12 -- Information Builders, a leader in business intelligence (BI) and analytics, information integrity, and integration solutions, today announced that in a broad survey of organizations using BI software products, it was ranked highest on numerous key performance indicators (KPIs) across multiple peer groups. The BI Survey 12 included Information Builders in four peer groups -- BI Giants, Large Enterprise Reporting Vendor, Dashboard Vendor, and Large Enterprise Projects Vendor -- and noted the company for besting the competition in lowest cost per seat and performance satisfaction in each category. Conducted by German-based Business Application Research Center (BARC), the report is the world's largest independent survey of business intelligence and performance management users, with 2,775 respondents.
Information Builders' BI platform, WebFOCUS, was recognized for its scalability, which enables companies to run a high number of users and manage a large volume of data. In the BI Giants category, Information Builders ranked higher on scalability than its competitors, according to the BARC report. Information Builders was also ranked highest in the BI Giants category in strategic selection, beating out much larger vendors such as Oracle and IBM Cognos. The company also received the highest score among BI Giants on the vendor support KPI, with the survey highlighting Information Builders' solid worldwide presence as the reason for its strength in this area.
In the Large Enterprise Reporting Vendor category Information Builders received the highest ranking in self-service BI. The company's intuitive, flexible technology makes it easy for even non-technical users to run reports, create charts and dashboards, and make more informed decisions as a result of improved access to real-time data. In addition, its flexible toolset allows users to develop individual BI applications -- a feature that contributed to Information Builders' leading rank in agility in the Large Enterprise Reporting Vendor category. In the Dashboard Vendor category, Information Builders ranked high in cost effectiveness, and as a leading vendor in big data, performance, and implementer support. In the Large Enterprise Projects Vendor category, Information Builders received the highest rankings in performance, strategic selection, and cost.
"Information Builders has proven itself time and again as a company committed to innovating its product line to keep pace with changing business needs, and this is a key factor in its ongoing high rankings in the BI Survey," said Melanie Mack, co-author of the BI Survey. "The company is also notable for the large number of platforms it supports and for the impressive number of users it can handle; criteria I believe will continue to strengthen its position in the industry."
"Information Builders' high ranking across numerous peer groups and KPIs in the BI Survey demonstrates the advantage of offering integrated data quality and integration solutions with our BI platform," said Gerald Cohen, CEO and president of Information Builders. "As organizations of all sizes continue to grapple with increasing amounts of data, we're confident in our ability to help them operationalize a wide variety of information assets -- both inside and outside the firewall -- at an affordable price point."

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons.

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

The Domain Name Service (DNS) is one of the most important components in networking infrastructure, enabling users and services to access applications by translating URLs (names) into IP addresses (numbers). Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets. According to a recent IDG Research Services Survey this rate of traffic will only grow. What's driving t...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade. What has changed is the public's awareness that the technology we use on a daily basis has caught up on the vision of an always on, always connected world. If you look into the details of what comprises the IoT, you'll see that it includes everything from cloud computing, Big Data analytics, "Things," Web communication, applications, network, storage, etc. It is essentially including everything connected online from hardware to software, or as we like to say, it's an Internet of many different things.

Mood [Freezing]
Currently Playing [None]
I didn't intend on getting anything from the Alexander Wang x H&M collection…but in the end, I caved in. The sports bras were on the top of my list of "needs" from the collection because aside from being great gym wear, I could wear them over a top. (I'm still in search for the white top with the perforated pattern…anyone want to offer me theirs in an xs?) Also, nothing makes me feel more warm than being completely engulfed in this potato-sack of a coat. I want to be completely submerged in it…especially with this -18 degrees weather.

Carder forum drops offline after hack attack
A Pakistan-based carder site has dropped off the net, after white hat hackers broke into the forum and posted details of the hack on a full disclosure mailing list. Pakbugs.com provided a forum for ne'er do wells to discuss hacking tactics and trade malware, bank logins details and stolen credit card credentials. However this …
Sod your title
So if a bunch of white hacks launched a malicious attack....are they now black hats? Or are they grey? Do they stand between the candle and the star? Do I need to get out more?
It will reappear
most likely under a different domain name.
Spooks Online ....... Take Care should you Dare 42 Win Win
Something similar appears to have happened to ne'er do well Republicans exposed here ..... http://cryptome.org/0001/obama-biz.htm.
Some excellent names, there
First guy on the list is called "Mr Lonely". I bet he's a bundle of laughs to hang out with. Somehow I suspect decent_cute_sameer is neither decent, nor cute, either!
They'll both need to find a different means of paying their Halo3 subscriptions, now.
Is it just me, or does the fact that there are two AOL addresses in that list spread doubt about the 1337 h4x 5k1LLs of these guys? Not a single address there is disposable...
Clowns, the lot of them.
The name "War Against Cyber Crime" sounds like something the US government would come up with. We do keep hearing how US gov agencies will be engaging in 'proactive cyber warfare".
Only governments use the word 'cyber' as well.
White hat, black hat ?
More like Ass hat.
Just another pitiful set of attention seeking wannabe securetards.

QOTD- Tuesday
Find a Conversation
|Tue, 09-02-2003 - 9:47am
My best friend was in for the weekend and stayed with me. I have hardwood floors, as does she. She was appauled that I walk on my floors without wearing socks. She says that the natural oils in your skin get into the wood and attract dust. No one in her house is allowed to go barefoot, or wear shoes for that matter. Everyone must take their shoes off at the door- can't have dirt tracked in, you know. I was under the impression that this is what welcome mats were made for, but maybe I'm wrong. After her guests take their shoes off at the door, they must wear socks at all times. So what do yall think? Is she over the top obsessive about cleanliness (which is what I am thinking) or am I way too lacks? Probably a dumb question, but I'm intrigued.
|Tue, 09-02-2003 - 10:03am
About your question, there was a time when I Might have gone along with your friend. However, that was when I was more concerned about stuff than people. I moved into a beautiful home a few years ago and it had practically white carpet. Nobody could walk on the carpets with shoes. I was nuts about it, and I'm sure made any company feel uncomfortable. About 3 weeks into living there, my hub and I brought home a sweetheart of a pup from the animal shelter. Well, within 10 minutes of being in the house, this poor puppy puked, and had spurting poop (lol) ALL OVER MY WHITE CARPET - - I freaked. My brother in law said 'it's now broken in'....and I slowly learned that having a good time and being more relaxed may make the carpet 'not Pristine white' but we enjoyed our life there in that house More AFTER we quit worrying about our carpet Not being perfect. Guess what I'm saying is - if you want perfect floors, best to have that in an area like the bedroom or office where only you are going to be - - the areas where folks gather should be an area where Friends and Family (and animals in my case) can all be comfortable. That's my opinion. Not a dumb question at all. I say NO you are not a poor housekeeper and that people are more important to you which in my book is a good thing.

You are NOT a bad housekeeper... You must be like me and go barefoot all the time. I can sure tell it was summertime here in Michigan... my feet are horrible! LOL During the winter, i wear slippers and that helps.
I also have white carpet... and believe me... we live on it! Stanley Steemer is my best friend! LOL

Mickie Diamond
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW, Yoga, Instruc
"I have had significant success helping clients deal with issues such as relationships, personal loss, trauma, body image, career development, stress management, depression, anxiety, illness, personal growth and what I call "behavioral decluttering", (elliminating old and unwanted behaviors). My style as a therapist is to help clients identify those areas of their lives which are most troubling and then develop specific goals to ensure that therapy produces important life changing results. The ultimate goal is for clients to eventually serve as their own therapists, applying what they learned in therapy to lead more fulfilling lives.

EMDR Therapists
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an information processing therapy that helps clients cope with trauma, addictions, and phobias. During this treatment, the patient focuses on a specific thought, image, emotion, or sensation while simultaneously watching the therapist's finger or baton move in front of his or her eyes. The client is told to recognize what comes up for him/her when thinking of an image; then the client is told to let it go while doing bilateral stimulation.
If you're looking for EMDR therapy in Pittsburgh or for a Pittsburgh EMDR therapist these professionals provide EMDR therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing and EMDR treatment. They include EMDR therapists, EMDR psychologists, EMDR psychotherapists, and EMDR counselors.

More experiences of being an AT&T wireless customer in Chicago
You have probably read some of my adventures before with being an AT&T wireless customer in Chicago. (Read here, or here) My issues have been continuous since becoming a customer. Why not change companies? It is hard to pay for a new phone when your finances are challenged. Once money is no longer an issue I will change to Verizon gladly.
So I have had more issues with dropped calls, poor voice quality that I couldn't understand what they were saying, delayed texts/voice mail up to 8 hours later, wildly fluctuating signal and more that I can't remember. I was talking to my friend and couldn't understand what she was saying even with 4 out of 5 bars, so I called her back. Still couldn't understand her so I asked her to call me back. While waiting for her call she IM's me and says that she is calling and its going to voice mail and why aren't I picking up? I tell her that I didn't receive any calls, or notice from the phone that I had a voice mail. I turn off the phone and wait 30 seconds and turn it back on and call her back. That fix usually works, but not all the time.
I called AT&T the next day and explained my problem to customer service. Then transferred me to technical support. Since I have called in almost every month my file was big. "I can see you have had lots of issues and there are a ton of notes on your account," the technical support rep said. "Technical support will call you back tomorrow on Thursday."
I was called Thursday at 6:30 at night and spoke with technical support. They wanted me to go to the local corporate office immediately "It would be best to go asap," she said. I said that the store would close in a half hour and that I had to walk there late at night and I would prefer to go tomorrow. So we both looked up the time and I asked her to call me back tomorrow morning. "I can't call at specific times, I will call you on Tuesday and find out what happened." It was actually my suggestion to go to the corporate store because she said that they needed to do troubleshooting with the phone itself and that they could only get me to a second level support if I could call from another line.
So Friday I go into the Corporate store at noon. I knew this was going to take two hours and they didn't let me down. After speaking and repeating everything that has happened to me the last 2 years the technical support person said that she has to move me up to "Level 2." Ok, at that point I had been there 90 minutes.
"Hi this is John with Level 2 technical support, how may I help you?" he cheerfully asks.
I tell him my story.
"We need an example where this problem happened." he says. I tell him the exact time and date.
"Oh I see what happened. Yes there is a problem." then the next thing he said shocked me. "I'm sorry I can't help you."
"You can't help me?" I said stunned.
"That's right. We have a policy that to enter a case the cause of it has to happen in the last 48 hours. Since that is out of this period we can't do a network trace." he said.
"Let me get this straight. I do what the representative tells me and come here and you are telling me that I can't get helped because I am too late for the policy?"
"Yes I am sorry but that is the policy."
Oh this is not what I expected to happen. "Let me talk with your manager."
"My manager will say the same thing but you are welcome to talk to him." he said.
So I spoke with the manager and he said the same thing. I explained how I was following the instructions that AT&T technical support gave me to come to the corporate store and repeated the last 2 years of issues. He said he would open up a network case to do a "network trace" and gave me the number.
I went home pleased that I got something done. The next phone call I got was from a recruiter. It had poor voice quality and the call dropped. I called AT&T technical support back and told them the time that it happened and my case number and was told it would be applied to my case.
Bottom line: if you have a problem with AT&T let them know ASAP.

The agency is moving boldly into the future
The General Services Administration is on the threshold of a landmark reorganization that will enable the agency to adapt to a complex new business environment and position GSA to anticipate and meet the broad needs of agency clients.
GSA is streamlining agency acquisition procedures and capitalizing on advances in technology that will let it respond more quickly and effectively to federal customers' changing needs for supplies, information technology and services.
Planning for this evolution officially began in 2005 with the announcement that GSA would create the Federal Acquisition Service (FAS) by merging the former Federal Technology Service (FTS) and Federal Supply Service. The idea, however, had been germinating during a longer period of time. Recently, GSA filled in many details of the original plan and made them available to Congress and all GSA associates.
Our mission is to understand our clients' needs so that we consistently deliver efficient, effective and compliant processes for customer agencies that need expert solutions.

Plans for FAS are moving forward under the capable leadership of Acting Commissioner Martin Wagner, who has served as GSA's associate administrator for governmentwide policy since 1995.
The design of the new FAS organization is a logical evolution for an agency that is highly motivated to stay competitive with commercial offerings and private-sector business practices. It will allow GSA to continue to fulfill its long-standing mission of helping other federal agencies better serve the public by providing strategic purchasing and acquisition support.
To this end, FAS has been designed to consolidate and facilitate previously separate functions, particularly in the area of IT procurement, and improve agency contracting procedures.
Change has always been part of GSA's history because the agency has always been progressive. In 1993, two separate GSA services managed the government's emerging technology needs — one for FTS 2000 and another for information resources management. That arrangement changed in 1996 when the two services became one — the Federal Telecommunications Service.
Another step in the evolutionary process occurred with a name change in 1997 that established the Federal Technology Service. That change also reflected the advancement of service offerings.
GSA's current evolution coincides with the experiences of many private companies facing significant changes in their industries. Under such circumstances, new vision and strategies are necessary for progress and even survival.
Staff adjustments are often a major strategic element of a turnaround plan. Those changes include possible hiring freezes, new acquisition expertise as necessary and even acceptance that some employees will choose to seek new opportunities rather than see this latest challenge through to completion.
The evolutionary process that has carried GSA through similar periods of adjustment in the past has seen the agency emerge stronger each time. Keep in mind that this period of changes, like others before it, was engineered to move the agency forward. GSA has a strong core on which to build. Success stories abound.
To address existing business challenges, GSA is successfully capitalizing on some challenging factors and transforming them into agents for substantive improvement and positive change. GSA expects numerous benefits from the FAS reorganization. It will allow the agency to:
From a business perspective, the new organizational structure is the right plan at the right time. GSA is evolving into an organization that will provide the greatest value and service in a fast-changing business climate. GSA is moving boldly into the future.
The reorganization gives GSA the potential to not only survive but also thrive in the 21st century.
