J. WALSH- INDICATING INSTRUMENT Filed June 15, 1927 Fig.3.
Inventor: d a esWaLsh,
his Attorneg.
front vertical Patented June 5,1928.
Application filed June 13, 1927. Serial No. 195,400. r
My invention relates to indicating instruments and its object is to increase the visibility of the instrument pointer and scale and to reduce the eye strain and glare which 5 is sometimes experienced in the. reading 0 such instruments. 7
When a large number of measuring instruments are mounted upon a switchboard, or switchboards, it is 10 have them all. located at the level of the eye or in positions of maximum visibility. Some will be higher up than others and some will be located less favorably than others 7 with res ect to the general illuminating of the buil ing. Due to the fact that it is the practice to useindicating instruments with an ordinary glass window over the scale it has been found that some instruments of a roup are often diflicult to read because of glare or the reflection of light from the glass or somepolished surface beneath the glass. This is particularly true of the so-called edgewise switchboard instrument which has a 'cylindrically shaped scale and glass window as shown in Fig. 1. Some portion of the scale of such an instrument equipped with the ordinary glass window and mounted in the usual way is very apt to be blurred or invisible when viewed from certain positions'because of glare. This difficulty is overcome by my invention which consists in employing a transparent window such as glass or celluloid the outer surface of which has been slightly roughened or 85 treated in some way to prevent glare and locating the window in close proximity to the pointer and scale. v
v The features of my invention which are believed to be novel and patentable will be 40 pointed out in the claims appended hereto. For a better understanding 0 my invention reference is made in the following description to the accompanying drawing in which Fig. 1 represents the invention applied to the edgewise type of indicating instrument; Fig. 2 represents a cross-section of the scale and glasswindow portion of the instrument shown in Fig. 1, and Fig. 3 shows the invention applied to an ordinary indicating in- '50 strument.
Referring to the drawing, Fig. 1 illustrates the conventional edgewise type electric measuring instrument for switchboard use. 10 is the base and 11 the cover, the
wall of which is cylindrical f 13 preferably of glass not always feasible to I .or chemical treatment so as to remove or materially in shape and corresponds in curvature to the arc in which the outer end of the moving pointer 12 of the instrument swings. The cover 11 isprovided with a curved window opposite to and parallel with the instrument scale 14. Heretofore this window has been formed of a curved piece of glass having a smooth outer surface. The illumination for such instru-'- ments generally comes from above and in front of the. instrument and where the window is of smooth glass, glare along some portion of the scale often obscures or renders difficult the instrument reading requiring the observer to change his position in order to read the instrument at all.' As a result of this difliculty the window and scale have been heretofore made somewhat smaller and narrower than that-illustrated to reduce the possibility of glare. According to the invention I em 10y a glass or other transparentwindow. aving an outer surface which has been treated in some way such as by a light sand blasting the smooth surface and thus prevent The result ofsuch treatment very reduces the visibility of the pointer and scale unless the pointer and scale are located in close proximity to the window; for example, ordinary printing located 4 inch back of a glass having 'a medium sand blasted surface can not read at all but becomes clearly legible if brought within inch of the glass. To overcome this difliculty several precautions may be taken, all of which are helpful; first, the sand blast or other polish removing operation is made very light, just enough to remove the objectionable glare due to reflected light; 2nd, the window is made as thin as practicable; if glass is used a thickness of 1 3 inch or less is preferable. This reduces the distance between the outer surface and'the scale andhas the same effect 100 as moving the scale nearer the window; an 3rd, the pointer and scale are brought into close proximity to the window. There is no particular difficulty in bringing the scale destroy glare.
close to the window in fact the scale might we be printed on the back surface of the window. However this is generally" not practicable because of calibration and arallax diificulties. Consequently; I refcr to arrange the outer surface of the pointer, and 110 the scale in substantial alinement and bring them a s'close to the window as is practicable without danger of the pointer rubbing against the window. The preferred arrangement is best shown in Fig. 2. ,The scale 14 is secured to a supporting plate 15. The plate 15 has a rearwardly extendin channel 16 with a slot in it through whic the pointer extends. The outer end of the pointer is in the form of a flat diamondshaped target which is substantially flush with respect to the adjacent indicating surface of the scale 14 and having suflicient clearance so as not to rub as it is swung across the scale. This arrangement avoids errors in reading due to parallax.
The distance between the window and scale may average about inch which with a window ,inch thick will bring the scale about A, inch away from the outer surface of the window. :lVith these distances the scale and pointer will be clearly visible unless the sand blasting or other surface cutting operation on the window has been carried way beyond that necessaryto eliminate glare.
Due to the fact that the possibility of glare has *been removed the window and consequently the scale and its markings may be made as large as desired. Eye strain is materially reduced and the instrument has a somewhat softer and more pleasing a pearance than with the ordinary glass win ow.
Fig. 3 illustrates the invention as applied to another type of measuring instrument which the front surface is flat and the pointer moves in a vertical are instead of in a horizontal arc. The same general arrangement as previously explained is employed and like reference characters are used to designate like parts. Owing to the absence of glare it is feasible to use the roughened glass or other transparent material (iver practically the entire front surface as shown, leaving ample room for the printing-of data other than that referring to the scale.
The glass or other window material maybe made nonglarin in many different ways. A very light sand blast gives very good results. The surface if of glass may also be etched to a slight extent by certain chemicals. The window may also be covered by a thin translucent coating which'is non-glaring in character. I
In accordance with the provisions of the patent statutes, I have described the printrative .and that the invention may ciple of operation ofmy invention, together with the apparatus which I now consider to represent the best embodiment thereof;
but I desire to have it understood that the apparatus shown and described is onl illuscarried out by other means.
What I claim as new and desire to secure by,Letters Patent of the United States, is:
1. A measuring instrument having a cas: mg, a transparent window 111 said casing,
said window having a non-glaring outer sur-- face, an instrument scale and a pointer mov-.
able with respect to said scale within said casing, said scale and pointer being located sufiiciently close to the inner surfaceof said with respect to and in substantial alinement with the adjacent indicating surface of said scale, and a thin transparent window provided with a non-glaring outer surface located adiacent to and in close proximity to said scale.
4. A measuring instrument provided with a scale, a pointer mounted for movement with respect to said scale, the indicating surfaces of said pointer being substantially in alinement with the adjacent indicating surface of said scale, a casing for said instrument provided with a transparent window opposite to said scale, said window having a non-glaring outer surface, the distance between the outer surface of said window and scale being less than inch.
5. A measuring instrument having acasing, a glass window in said casing, saidv window not exceeding about- 111611 in th1cka casing for said instrument, a thin glass window in saidcasing located closely adja-' cent to and parallel to said scale, said window having a non-glaring outer surface.
7. A measuring instrument having a scale, a pointer movable with respect to said scale, a casing for said instrument substantially the entire front portion of which comprises a transparent window having a non-glaring outer surface, said pointer and scale belng located closely adjacent to the inner surface of said window so as to be clearly visible therethrough. I c
In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand this 10th day of June, 1927.

FoxPro Shockwave Coyote Caller Review
At the report of the rifle, the FoxPro Shockwave immediately started to play an injured adult coyote sound. This feature is called FOXBANG. It is triggered by the sound of a rifle going off. You can preprogram the sound on any FoxPro caller with the FOXBANG feature to do this. I have it on my CS24B as well, and it has resulted in killing a lot more doubles on a stand. FoxPro callers (especially the Shockwave) come with quite a few features, but if I were forced to only pick one, the FOXBANG would be it, hands down!
The other coyote had spooked when I moved to shoot and had run back down the valley out of sight. Knowing it would soon reappear on the far hillside I quickly jacked in another round and waited for it. Sure enough, the coyote popped out about where I figured it would. It wasnt running flat out, but it wouldnt stop completely. I tracked it in the scope and realized it would vanish into the next valley soon. So I led it a little and touched one off. To my disappointment I missed, but I didnt have long to be bummed about it. At the report of the second shot, the rock pile three feet behind me erupted into a cacophony of buzzing. I instantly recognized the sound of my least favorite animal on the planet RATTLE SNAKES!!!
For a guy nearly 50 years old and not nearly as athletic as I used to be, I can go from sitting to standing in record time when properly motivated. This was one of those times. I sprang straight up and spun around in the air to face the rock. As I did so I could hear other rattles continue to join in the chorus. I quickly surveyed the area around my seat to make sure no snakes were within striking distance. There werent, so I grabbed my seat and rifle and made a mad dash down the hill away from the rock pile and towards my dead coyote. This, by the way, isnt easy to do with legs shaking so bad that just trying to stand is difficult. I grabbed the coyote by the front legs and then turned around and grabbed my caller. I took everything over to a large clear area on the hillside. I didnt want any more shocking surprises.
At this point I was pretty shaken up. I just wanted to get some quick photos and get out of there! By the time the pictures were finished it was nearly dark. On still shaky legs I loaded everything up and headed for my pickup as quickly as possible with my snake paranoia on full alert. Funny how long a half a mile can seem under such conditions. I made it to the truck and home safely. I have no idea how many rattlesnakes were in the rock pile and I dont care to ever go back and look. Needless to say, I made a major mental note to never hunt that particular stand ever again until there was snow on the ground.
I am pleased to report that since that my initial debut with the FoxPro Shockwave caller I was able to call single coyotes in on the next three stands I used the caller on. That is pretty darn impressive to call in a total of 5 coyotes on the first 4 stands using a brand new caller. I did not kill all the coyotes, but the Shockwave did its job well.
The FoxPro Shockwave caller has several other interesting features, including:
FOXMOTION: This mimics moving prey, by fading the sound from the left speaker to the right speaker.
FOXPITCH: This feature lets you manipulate the pitch of any sound with the hope of triggering a response. FOXPITCH is actually very cool because you can manipulate the intensity by making the pitch go up and down.
FOXDATA: Records temperature, barometric pressure, moon phase, time on the stand and the time of the shot itself in real time.
FOXCAST: For those that dont want to mess with pushing a lot of buttons while on their stand. It lets you set up an entire calling sequence so you can just kick back and watch for your predators coming in, rather than messing with the remote.
Now for the pros and cons. Well, actually there really arent that many cons, as it is one of the most impressive e-callers I have ever taken into the field. This is no small statement as Ive used e-callers by pretty much all the major manufacturers. The only struggle that I have had with the Shockwave has been while trying to program it from my computer. I was able to do it, but it took me much longer than when programming any other FoxPro caller Ive ever used. I may be doing something wrong and taking the long path, so to speak. In fact, Im sure there is a quicker way to do it, but I just havent figured it out yet. Knowing that FoxPro has a tremendous customer service staff, Im sure that a phone call or two with the technical department and I will be able to get up to speed.
The only other things to consider are the size and weight. I know I said it wasnt much heavier than my CS24B and it isnt. However, there are days where Im hiking all day long and basically running and gunning. On days like this I try to go as light as possible. Heck, sometimes even ounces count depending on how many miles Im going to cover on foot. On those days I will either pick my CS24B or just take a hand call. In regards to the size, while not nearly as big as the Prairie Blaster, the Shockwave is bigger than most of the other FoxPro callers. It takes up most of the room in my day pack. If it comes down to choosing between packing a lunch or using a larger caller, lunch will win out every time. With that said, most of the time the Shockwave will be a welcome addition to my coyote hunting arsenal. Most hunts dont require long hikes or being away from my pickup from dawn to dark. For quick hunts after work or all day hunts that dont require walking more than a mile to each stand, the FoxPro Shockwave caller is ideal. Quite frankly, I would prefer to use it just for the crystal clear stereo sound. So if you are in the market for the Best of the Best the FoxPro Shockwave should be right at the top of a very short list.

Milner Chapel marks 125 years
The Milner Chapel marked its 125th anniversary on Sunday with a series of events. Cutting the cakes to mark the anniversary were Gordon Davis, Hugh Davis, Glenn Smith, Jack Worrell, Fenn Williams and Gordon Mufford, all members of longtime Milner families. About 230 people attended Sunday's events, which included a pancake brunch, entertainment and dedication of the bells, which were recently installed in the chapel's bell tower. Milner Chapel, located at 6716 216 St., was originally built at the corner of Glover Road and Johnston Townline Road (216 Street) in 1886. It was originally named Langley Prairie Methodist Church. It eventually became Milner Methodist Church and then Milner United Church. The chapel was moved from its original location in 2006, and since that time has been fully restored. It is actively used by members of the community.

Posted January 29, 2013 on AP on Fox
Boston Celtics star Paul Pierce showed up for his pre-practice meeting with reporters carrying a basketball, which he bounced from time to time while answering questions. Get used to it: Pierce will have the ball in his hands a lot more from now on. Two days after learning that Rajon Rondo has a torn knee ligament that will keep him out the rest of the season, the Celtics returned to practice Tuesday for the first time to work on an extended future without the All-Star point guard. Pierce is the most likely player to handle the ball at key points, starting with Wednesday night's visit from the Sacramento Kings, but coach Doc Rivers says everyone will have to work to replace Rondo. "It's just basketball," he said. "There's no point guard. It's just basketball by committee. I don't want a guy thinking now he's Rondo." Rondo was averaging 13.7 points, a league-best 11.1 assists and 5.6 rebounds, with triple-doubles in back-to-back games w...

Kansas City Chiefs Defensive end Jared
Allen is expected to sign a lucrative six-year contract today with
the Minnesota Vikings.
The deal will net Kansas City a windfall of extra picks in this
weekend's draft.
A person close to the talks tells The AP that the rebuilding
Chiefs could wind up with six picks in the first 82 selections.
Allen led the NFL in sacks last season, despite being suspended
the first two games because of multiple DUI convictions. If he's
cited again, he could be suspended for an entire year.
Allen could sign a contract as early as today that would make
him one of the NFL's highest-paid defensive stars.
There were reports in The Kansas City Star and other outlets
that Allen's contract would be for about 74 million dollars, with
around 31 million guaranteed.
Under terms of the reported deal, the Chiefs would wind up with
their own No. 1 pick -- the No. 5 overall -- plus Minnesota's
first-round picks and both of the Vikings two third-round

Washington (AP) — Spurred by a horrific elementary school shooting, President Barack Obama vowed to send Congress new policy proposals for reducing gun violence by January.
"This time, the words need to lead to action," Obama said Wednesday. He tasked Vice President Joe Biden with leading an administration-wide effort to create the new recommendations and pledged to push for their implementation without delay.
The president, who exerted little political capital on gun control despite a series of mass shootings in his first term, bristled at suggestions that he had been silent on the issue during his first four years in office. But he acknowledged that Friday's deadly shooting had been "a wake-up call for all of us."
Twenty children and six adults were killed when a man carrying a military-style rifle stormed Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown, Conn., Friday morning.
The president also called on Congress Wednesday to reinstate an assault weapons ban that expired in 2004 and to pass legislation that would close the gun show "loophole," which allows people to purchase firearms from private dealers without a background check. Obama also said he wanted Congress to pursue the possibility of limiting high-capacity ammunition clips.
"The fact that this problem is complex can no longer be an excuse for doing nothing," Obama said. "The fact that we can't prevent every act of violence doesn't mean we can't steadily reduce the violence."
The president's announcement Wednesday underscores the urgency the White House sees in formulating a response to the Newtown shooting. The massacre has prompted several congressional gun rights supporters to consider new legislation to control firearms, and there is some concern that their willingness to engage could fade as the shock and sorrow over the Newtown shooting eases.
Obama said it was "encouraging" to see people of different backgrounds and political affiliations coming to an understanding that the country has an obligation to prevent such violence.
Appealing to gun owners, Obama said he believes in the Second Amendment and the country's strong tradition of gun ownership. And he said "the vast majority of gun owners in America are responsible."
"I am also betting that the majority, the vast majority, of responsible law-abiding gun owners would be some of the first to say that we should be able to keep an irresponsible, law-breaking few from buying a weapon of war," Obama said.
Obama also tasked the Biden-led team with considering ways to improve mental health resources and address ways to create a culture that doesn't promote violence. The departments of Justice, Education, Health and Human Services, and Homeland Security, along with outside groups and lawmakers, will all be part of the process.
Biden's prominent role in the process could be an asset for the White House in getting gun legislation through Congress. The vice president spent decades in the Senate and has been called on by Obama before to use his long-standing relationships with lawmakers to build support for White House measures.
The president challenged the National Rifle Association, the country's most powerful gun lobby and key backer of many Republican politicians, to join the broader effort to reduce gun violence as well.
"Hopefully they'll do some self-reflection," Obama said of the NRA.
The NRA made its first comments since the shooting on Tuesday, promising to offer "meaningful contributions to help make sure this never happens again."
Obama said that while taking the necessary steps to reduce gun violence would take commitment and compromise, he said it could be achieved if Washington summons "even one tiny iota of the courage of those teachers, that principal in Newtown summoned on Friday."

There have been a lot of leaks lately, and they don't show any sign of slowing down - Yoel Kaseb (via Google+) has shared screenshots of what he claims to be a test build of a redesigned Google+ app. According to his post, the build is unstable and probably unfinished, and he has since been locked out from accessing or using the APK. But what we can see from the screenshots Kaseb managed to capture is both compelling and in line with some of the other leaks we've seen recently.

After much wringing of hands, it looks like Google Glass is back on its update track, with a long-awaited bump to KitKat imminent. Announced in a post to Glass' Google+ page earlier, the update is a big one. Obviously the headlining feature of the update is a move to Android 4.4, but Glass will soon be able to bundle photos, videos, and vignettes from each day (to free up precious timeline space), reply with photos in Hangouts, and send feedback directly from Glass.
According to Chainfire, the night mode and color adjustment features from Chainfire3D and the original CF.lumen Gingerbread apps are frequently requested. So frequent, in fact, that they're back for KitKat+ devices as CF.lumen on the Play Store.
If you've ever used f.lux for your PC, you know basically what to expect here - color temperature adjustments based on the time of day, bringing tones more in line with your eyes' expectations when the sun goes down.
We've reported on several Google Now-related rumors recently. If our information is accurate, Google Now will soon be able to help you remember and pay for bills, automatically infer events from your communications, and serve you reminders depending on who is near you. Today, we've got another one. This time, Google wants to help you remember where you left your car.
The most recent Humble Bundle for PC and Android started out with six great games, and three more were added today, available to those who top the average purchase price on Humble Bundle's website.
The new games include Savant: Ascent, Syder Arcade, and The Shivah. For those unfamiliar, Humble Bundle allows users to pay one low price, split between developers and charity, for a - for lack of a better term - bundle of great titles.
Throughout Glass' gradual expansion to more and more Explorers, there's been a lot of talk about using the device professionally in demanding environments, particularly healthcare (and firefighting). Wearable Intelligence is a company looking to tackle the former, along with energy industries, by building firmware for Glass that replaces its usual Android installation with one customized to fit the needs of those industries.
Wearable Intelligence says its healthcare solution is HIPAA compliant, and from their promotional video, it looks undoubtedly impressive.
Cover, the contextual lock screen replacement that's been available in open beta since December has been acquired by Twitter.
For now, the app is still available in the Play Store, and Cover promises that "for now" that won't change. When or if it will eventually change is unclear, but Cover's blog post on the matter goes on to explain their newly forged relationship.
Occasionally, an OS update will bring around features that really change things. Android 3.0 brought the Android experience to tablets. 4.0 completely revamped the UI and added guidelines that made Android look cohesive for the first time. 4.4 added Svelte, which promised to seat Android comfortably on an even broader range of devices. We have reason to believe another one of those changes is right around the corner, and it's known internally as Hera.
In a bit of unexpected news, the Verge has just posted images and descriptions of Android TV, based on information provided to them by an unnamed source.
Android TV, according to the Verge, is Google's renewed bid for the living room, looking to put Google TV in the rear view mirror, and deliver content in a cohesive experience that users will actually want to do. It does this by focusing on being an entertainment platform, rather than making your TV function like a large tablet with a remote.

All this time spent looking for the perfect warm taupe eyeshadow, going through Chanel, Dior, MAC, Armani, etc. Then I find this little beauty for $1.99 at Walgreens. It's everything I wanted in a warm taupe. It goes on very smoothly and evenly and wears all day over TFSI. You can't beat the price. When I think of all the money I have spent I could kick myself for not trusting MUA in the first place and buying this little gem. Try it, what do you have to lose?

Wow, wet n wild is really making an excellent impression on me. I can't believe how pigmented this is!! It's a beautiful taupe color and it's very similar to mac satin taupe, maybe a bit warmer and bronzier, but VERY similar. I also swatched it next to the taupe color in the L'oreal HIP duo in sassy and it's almost the same! (the HIP duo is around $7-8 while this wet n wild eyeshadow is only $2!!)
Nutty is great for everyday eye looks, and i'll buy this over and over!!

Holy pigmentation batman! For something so cheap this delivers a punch of color! It's a gorgeous taupey brown that looks amazing on. Awesome for a daytime office look or you can make it darker for a night out. I was lucky enough to score the last one at Walgreens. I'm gonna go hunting this weekend to see if I can find backups of this. So worth having in your collection. Ladies, if you don't have this I highly recommend finding this.

I love this e/s! You can't beat the price, the pigment is beatiful, and looks great with anything! I paired it with WNW's Brulee on the brow bone, and a soft taupe eyeliner, and it looks great! A must have in my arsenal! Will definitely buy this one again and again and again.....

I've been hearing great things about Wet n Wild's new eyeshadows so at $1.99 i decided to try one out and I chose nutty. I was kind of hesitant to buy a Wet n Wild product because Wet n Wild was the makeup I used to buy when I was 13 years old and didn't care about the poor quality. I was pleasantly surprised when I first used it. The pigmentation of this shadow is amazing! I've been using this almost every single day since I first bought it. Great color and the perfect amount of shimmer for every day wear. Definitely will buy this over and over! :)

I must add my love for this eyeshadow to all the others. $1.97 for a lovely, amazingly pigmented taupe eyeshadow!!!! Blends smoothly, nice pigmentation, nice level of shimmer, not OTT, perfect for everyday. Doesn't hurt my pocketbook. I noticed the was the last one, when I grabbed it off the rack. I will definitely be stashing a few backups of this, because why the h8ll not at the price. Everyone needs one of these in their stash!!!!

I just got this shadow and I love it. It is wonderful. It has become my go to shadow for everyday looks. It is pigmented, and the texture is smooth, soft, almost like butter. Great taupy color. Over all it gets 5 lippies. The price is very cheap compared to even most drugstore single eye shadows which run about $4.00, at Walgreens this is $1.99. The packaging is nothing spectacular but it gets the job done and keeps the shadow in place. I will repurchase this when I run out.

I purchased this because I absolutely adore the coloricon palettes and the solid reviews on this particular e/s. Super happy and impressed with this e/s and the quality WnW has imposed on their new line of products!
This is e/s is the perfect medium taupe brown color with silver shimmer that I have been looking for to add to my collection. The shimmer is beautiful and not over the top glittery. It's pigmented, easy to blend, and has a buttery texture. Nutty is a great versatile e/s that I love to wear either all over my lid or blended into my crease. Pairs exceptionally well with many of other neutral e/s that I have making it fun and creative to work with. I can see myself repurchasing this again and again.

This is a beautiful shadow! It doesn't pick up as easily and is not as pigmented as the Wet'n'Wild color icon matte shadows, but is still more than sufficient in both those areas. The color of this shadow is a neutral taupy-brown color with a slightly pinkish undertone and subtle frost, which is just sophisticated enough to be able to use on an everyday basis or for professional looks, but gorgeous enough to be able to use for going out at night. I think it's great for warm or cool skin tones. It applies smoothly and evenly, and if applied lightly can be sheer, or if layered can be more intense. I'd say it's very close to Clinique's eyeshadow in Foxy, but WAY easier to pick up, more pigmented, and a much more flattering color. I think it's appropriate enough for women of all ages to use, not too boring or too flashy. Using with a base really brings out the color, or without a base makes for a pretty and sheer coverage. The super cheap price makes this shadow a steal, it's perfect.

A business in Howard is no longer standing.
No one was hurt when Howard Cold Storage and Lockers caught on fire around 4 a.m. And just before deer hunting season, 8 workers have no place to work.
The owner of Howard Cold Storage and Lockers knew something was wrong when he walked into his business early Thursday morning.
"We got here 3 to 4 minutes later. In the building there was visible flames and heavy black smoke on the inside. You couldn't make an entrance into the building, the smoke was so heavy and thick," said Howard Fire Chief John Mengenhausen.
Firefighters from Howard, Canova, and Fedora could only fight the smoke and flames from the outside. As they watched the Howard meat locker burn to the ground.
"Loss of a good business on Main Street in Howard," said Chief Mengenhausen.
"Very popular, people come from all over to get their meat processed there," added Jill Wunder.
"It's their busy time of the year. This is when the deer season starts and they do a lot of processing for the deer," added Chief Mengenhausen.
Hours after the fire began, flames were still seen from the building and that's because of the material the materials on the roof.
"They just put a new rubber roof with five inches of foam over their old roof. So, now you have two layers of roof and that's what caused us to really struggle for us to get to it," said Chief Mengenhausen.
"It just keeps the flames burning hot and it just keeps it for an active fire scene for a long time," added Chief Mengenhausen.
Crews knocked brick and steel walls over trying to extinguish the fire and to keep it from spreading to neighboring buildings.
"So, we really hope he can make a comeback after this," said Chief Mengenhausen.
The Howard community hopes a staple of Main Street will open for business again.

Now we've seen it all. Don Draper fends off a Madam, Peggy, and Ken make a pact to leave the agency, Pete is a mess, drinking, fighting at work, and stepping out on Trudy—and these goings-on are not just pulp, they raise an important question about life, for both the fictional characters of Mad Men and fans of the show: can people ever really change?
Psychic determinism—the belief that we are mired in our own psychological quicksand and doomed to follow a course paved in infancy—is a grim notion. Proponents argue that those who are dealt a bad hand can do nothing to materially alter that which is set to unfold. What is in the cards for any particular individual is governed by the interplay of DNA and early family life.
So what about our common desire to better ourselves, conquer our inner demons, and overcome our childhoods (remember those resolutions from last New Year's to organize your closets, be a more patient parent, and shed those 10 extra pounds)? Do we have any possibility of realizing our hopes and dreams?

Anyone have a DS in Cub Scouts?
Find a Conversation
|Thu, 09-11-2003 - 9:01am
Yesterday they had the open house for Cub Scouts and we got a flyer from school. My DS wants to join so my husband took him to the open house. From what my husband says, he think it's a little too involved and a little too much for us to handle right now. They have meetings about three times a month, plus you have to do things at home. My son has a good friend who's in it and I think it would be a great idea and a good way to build his self esteem. But with him trying to get the hang of school right now and some of the problems we are having, I'm wondering if it's such a good idea. Please let me know who has any experience with this and let me know how they've been.
Thanks so much!!!
|Thu, 09-11-2003 - 9:36am
Cubs was (is) so good for him - his dad has become a leader and they both really enjoy it. Our DS responded well to the rules of Tigers and sometimes when he acts up, we'll ask him if that is how a cub scout is supposed to act. It seems to work - he takes it very seriously. And, when he's being extra good - we tell him that he is a good cub scout.
Cubs also has a lot of family things - like camping. We didn't own one thing for camping last year before we went - we had to buy everything - which was a big expense at first - around $600 - but once you have all your supplies, you have them and don't have to keep spending money. We've been camping about 7 times since and are about to go on our first camping trip for the year in two weeks. The first weekend, we didn't (except for my husband) know what we were doing - we brought too much stuff, etc. Now we have a routine and we really, really enjoy camping with the cubs, and just going on our own.
Cubs provides good structure and teaches our boys lots of lessons - like how to treat themselves, how to treat others, how to do different things.
I will say, though, that for us the meetings started at 6:30 or 7:00. This is a bad time for most little kids, much less our ADHD kids. There were some meetings where our DS would not sit still. Finally, we told him that we were there for him - not us. If he didn't want to be there, then we'd leave. That helped him. Now that DS is on Concerta this year - I hope it won't be that much a problem. And - our doc gave us a the lowest dose of Ritalin - we can give him a pill at about 4:30, if we want - that should last into the evening. We haven't tried this yet, but we may.
Hope this helps.

During our year from hell, Tigers was a way for us to get some POSITIVE recoginition and see some advancement. That is one of the big things from scouts - recognition and advancement. They earn beads, beltloops, pins, patches, etc, for their accomplishments. They meet once a month as a large group. We are rather lax, though, about the Den meetings which are supposed to be twice a month.
There are some activities that need to be done at home, but it is a good chance to spend some quality time with your child. Many activites are family activites - camping trips, etc. During the summer, we worked to get a lot of different requirements done. Gave us something to work towards and something to do with some of those summer days.
I wanted my kid in so bad, that I ended up being the Den Leader.
GOod luck with your decision.
|Fri, 09-12-2003 - 9:22am
This was my concern. I don't want to get Austin overinvolved in anything but I know how scouts could really help him out with his self esteem and like you said recognition. The packed of information they gave us just sounded like there are all these strict rules as far as the requirements, the meetings to attend and behavior and grooming expected...almost like the military! LOL But it seems like it's something he'd really enjoy and he has a good friend whose in it. So, how to keep him caught up in school (which I feel he's already partly struggling in right now) and get him involved in something like this, I just want to keep a balance.
It's okay if you miss some meetings then? Which ones are the most important, the den mtgs or the pack mtgs? Because also the nights I work, my husband has our two year old and don't know if we'd make all the meetings....
Austin really seems excited about all the different things he will be able to do. They have their calendar and list of events and he's psyched. I don't think we'd be able to say no if we wanted to. But it seems like from what you've said that it's not like he's going to have daily homework or anything from scouts. So it should be okay.
Thanks Karen!!
|Fri, 09-12-2003 - 9:26am
Why do they have a full health history they need to ask on the forms for scouts? They even ask if they have a behavior problem or ADD/ADHD? Me and my dh were kinda surprised by this. Are they discriminatory?
|Fri, 09-12-2003 - 9:13pm
The den meetings are a smaller group of boys. Better for bonding and working together. That is when some of the "work" is done on the achievements and may also be more fun than the Pack Meeting. Just depends - some of them can be kind of dry and some can be fun depending on what they're working on.
Our Pack does give an award for Perfect ATtendance at the end of the year, but it seems like it's only the leaders' kids that get it.
I think the idea behind the health history - that part of the application stays with the Pack and I think is for the Pack to have some kind of idea about possible problems on outings and stuff. If a kid is epileptic, you might want to know that before he has a seizure, and not after. There is no need for that in our pack, because there is ALWAYS a parent with the kid on any outings. They don't discriminate that I can tell.
When I first registered DS did not have an ADD diagnosis, so I checked No. Now he does, and I've had to fill out the same thing for day camps and such, and I don't have a problem with putting "yes". However, I am always there with him at those kinds of things. What I think is kind of ridiculous is them wanting to know when their last shots were. I'm hoping that they just want to know who they really need to keep an eye on when they're doing things like BB guns and archery with the ADHD question.
If you want to get an idea of some of the wolf requirements, you can do a search for cybercubber. That is the best site I have found. It also lists requirements for beltloops and pins. Those are strictly optional, but some are fairly easy to earn and another way to get recognition.
As far as the grooming and regulations. Some run tighter ships than others. But they should recognize that these are 7-11 year old boys - not boot camp inductees. Yes, you want the shirts tucked in, etc. And I find any encouragement that they can give towards the area of hygiene is appreciated.
Ask away. I love to talk.

Stayed with family in junior suite. The room and living room + kitchen are ok.
Bathroom is very small in all the rooms. Bath glass door was not present.
Very bad toalite
Location is perfect
The room's carpet need to be changed. It is very dirty. The bath also was not clean.
Bed and location
value for money spacious and clean
no breakfast / dining facility
Unavailability of room service or a restraint to order any meal, I can't believe we had to dine outdoors!
Location , clean , quite
High Price , too small toilet for junior suite , chick in @ 4:00 PM !!! i arrived @ 2 :00 PM , so i have to wait 2 hours !! , swimming pool chargeable because third party invest the fitness area .
The location The cleanliness
Receptionists were nice but need more training as they were clueless to certain issues. Soundproofing doesnt exist. Anything that happens in the hallway echoes in the rooms
I had a very nice suite with separate kitchen and living room. In a lively neighbourhood, with shops and restaurants (this is a necessity since the hotel doesn't have a restaurant).
The finishing was poor: The sink was not attached to the worktop. The shower floor was sloping in the wrong direction: a pool was formed at the lower part since the water could not reach the drain. Carpets were staind.
Everythings was bad
very expensive dealing inelastic from reception employees The bathroom is too narrow, such as the grave
Everything is new and the boss mr rami
cleanliness, manager Ramey, late checkout, air conditioning, decor,
no restaurant, no gym n pool, noisy..too noisy, one doesn't feel if one is in a Boudl property
no curtain for the shower i stayed 2 nights and they did not clean the room during the 2 nights
i have been in Taeif for 2 days last week, i stayed in Boudl hotel..it was amazing stay.. i like it , i have been in many 5 stars resort and hotels, the cleanness and comfort of what we got are the same and sometimes better than the 5 stars hotels... Mr Rami Al Wahedi have been so generous with us, welcoming us and let us feel that we r in our home ,he gave us good rooms, advising us what to do ,,,, he is a good example of what a good manager should be and showed us with a professional way a good view to the hotel.
there was no breakfast,\ the minibar is not included, i didnt visit the pool,,, but i hope i can see it one day
فندق نظيف وأثاثه جميل والغرف كبيرة الحجم ، يقع في منطقة هادئه The hotel is clean
السيفتي بوكس لايعمل ، ضغط الماء للدوش خفيف ، الانترنت يفصل أحياناً Safety box not working , Shower water pressure is low , Internet malfunctioning some times
Location is very good. Clean rooms. Enough parking area.
Reception staff are nice but need more training.
clean , location
Rooms are nice and clean. Location is near Taif high street.
No dining facilities in house. Bathrooms are small. Check in time should be improved.
the worst hotel i have seen ever poor housekeeper support lighting some of it defected also water flow to rooms were hold 4 four hours i suggest to reserve any hotel except this hotel you can take alshaker hotel or retal:)
Hotel has shown suites photos in another hotel, which is not exist and misleading for guests .
Location and value for money, overall.
Very poor amenities. For example, toilet contains only ONE towel!
The staff hardly speaks English and does not know anything about the city. I asked about the Shubra Palace and the guy didn't know. I asked about two other things in the city - the same - he didn't know.
- Good location. Lots of take-aways/restaurants close by - Comfortable room and looks new - Had a multi-charger in room which was very useful and a nice amenity - Parking was excellent.
- No breakfast/dining facility which was a slight let down. - Internet was quite slow sometimes.

Sorry but this item is currently unavailable.
Please check back at a later stage.
The Dove Feeding Frenzy is the most advanced dove decoying system ever developed. It rotates three photographic Winged Dove Decoys clock-wise in a circular bumping, jumping motion, simulating multiple doves feeding on the ground. The life-like look and rotating action brings doves in fast! Each unit comes complete with 3-Winged Dove Decoys, and a black carrying bag for transportation to and from the field. The unit runs 4-5 hours on 4 high quality AA batteries. Batteries not included.
Posted by Maurice Smith on 11th Sep 2013
Product ran without a hitch for 6 hours on Walgreen AA batteries, was only expecting 4 per the video. Action fell a little short of what I was expecting from the video, but still noticed birds varying their flight path to the area of the field we were in. Only negative is that the springs inserted in the shafts continued to come out during assembly.
Overall, I think its a great product.

Juanita Mahieu Underwood
January 2, 1918 - November 18, 2012
Juanita passed quietly into the arms of Christ from her home in Ventura due to complications of a back injury. Juanita was born in Fowler, Kansas to Mary Jane (Marcum) and Albert Alexis Mahieu. Being born at home during a winter blizzard, her mother chose January 2 as her birth date, though the doctor disagreed. The family moved to California in 1923 to escape Dust Bowl conditions on the Mahieu farm. The family lived in El Monte for a few years, where her only sibling, Lew, was born. They moved to Long Beach when Albert was hired to landscape the new Los Cerritos Country Club. Juanita graduated from Los Cerritos School and then graduated from Polytechnic High School in Long Beach. As a young lady, Juanita worked for Moore's, an upscale dress shop in downtown Long Beach, both modeling clothes and working as a consultant and buyer. (She also took care of the Moore children from time to time.) In 1939, she married Charles Underwood at Lakewood Community Church. Moving with Charles in his car business, she made friends with an elderly couple who both prayed for and loved Charles into a relationship with Jesus Christ that transformed his life. At the First Baptist Church of Long Beach, he decided to become a full-time pastor. Charles and Juanita went together to school, but her schooling was cut short by a near-fatal car crash. Months in a body cast, with more broken bones and shards of glass in her than she could count-she was yet alive. Doctors said the crown of thick braids she wore saved her from terminal trauma. Others believed that God simply had more for her to do. Charles was commissioned to plant a church in Wrigley Heights, a new postwar subdivision. He and Juanita visited every one of the two thousand new homes, helped to build and furnish the Wrigley Heights Baptist Church building and parsonage and served there for several bright years. Many college students began life-changing relationships with Jesus there and many amazing stories began: Roland Rasmussen, a college baseball player, went on to found a church; Kathryn Gurzi spent over fifty years in South Africa serving the Zulu people in Jesus' name-many more stories that could fill a book. Charles and Juanita saw God do great things there. Because they "couldn't" have children, they adopted Richard Charles Underwood as a toddler. Then (as often happens) they discovered that they were going to have another child. At 36, Juanita gave birth to Mary Louise and at 44, she gave birth to Stewart Alexis. The Underwoods also founded the Los Altos Grace Brethren Church and pastored Grace Baptist Church on Palo Verde Avenue. Juanita led Vacation Bible Schools, conferences, taught and organized. She was an amazing speaker and presenter but often did more "background" work than "up front" work. In the mid 1960s, the family moved on to churches in Minnesota and Pennsylvania, then returning to Long Beach from South Carolina in 1984. Even while caring for her elderly parents, Juanita also took time to help her brother Lew Mahieu with his business, Mahieu Engineering, Inc. She loved to make deliveries of those tiny precision parts and at times did collections! Throughout her life, she and her family patronized Farmers and Merchants bank and appreciated the Walker family's personal care and financial guidance. After the death of her husband in 1991, Juanita lived at 32 La Linda Drive, her parent's house, and rekindled a relationship with Marshall Smith (to whom she'd been engaged before the war). She later moved from Long Beach to live with her son and then with her daughter in even more new places. An active member of many churches, she was not a member of any other organization. Always supportive, always working hard, she found her main joy in helping others discover the power of Christ to transform them. Please sign the guestbook at

Sysomos Offers Tips on Preventing a Social Media Crisis
A public relations crisis is no longer limited to a negative story spread by journalists through traditional media outlets. Today, a negative story moves around the world at the speed of social media -- in real time on channels like Twitter and YouTube. While this dynamic can wreak havoc on a brand more quickly than ever before, social media also presents opportunities that weren't available a decade ago. In its latest example-filled tip sheet, "Turn Social Intelligence into Smart Crisis Prevention," Sysomos offers practical suggestions for preventing a social media crisis from occurring as well as controlling an impending crisis.
Report Highlights
- Every company should have an updated, readily accessible social media crisis plan that represents each of its departments, because a crisis can range from an executive faux pas to poor customer service to a product malfunction.
- Word clouds are great bellwethers for predicting a crisis. Monday's word cloud could reveal business as usual while Tuesday's could predict trouble in the making.
- Organizations can avert or more easily control a crisis once it occurs by developing positive relationships with their major influencers, fans and clients ahead of time.
- Overreacting to a crisis can hurt a brand as much as can underreacting. Monitoring tools reveal spikes in social sentiment during crisis response; the goal is to bring sentiment volume to pre-crisis levels.
- Pre-prepared messages help speed response, but the tone and content must be modified for each unique situation. It's critical for a brand's voice to be authentic and genuine when it explains how it's fixing the issue.
"Turn Social Intelligence into Smart Crisis Prevention" is the seventh in a series of Sysomos Tip Sheets to help marketers leverage social media monitoring to advance their businesses.

Milestones: Does Your Child Measure Up?
Tonight on "It's Real Talk Radio", Miss Behave & Jay Styles come together for a second time to collaborate on another motherhood show. The first was successful so of course this was inevitable. The topic of discussion is Milestones and the question is: "Does your child measure up?"
When you have children, you will find that there is a universal guideline for what milestones your child should be hitting. For instance, at 6 months old, normally your child is ready for solids. We all know that every child is unique & develops differently, but sometimes our expectations are set a little high for an infant or toddler while other times expectations tend to be set too high, so it's all about the proper balance to save you and your child a lot of headaches.
Tonight Miss Behave & Jay Styles will be breaking it all down so make sure you don't miss out and if you have a question or comment you'd like to share, feel free to call in. The Call-in # is 347-838-9540 just remember to press 1 if you want to be brought on air.

11:11- An Important and Powerful Time of Transitions ~ Chris Flisher
in Spirituality
November 11th (11:11) is powerful date. We will be will be witnessing a very ominous alignment. By the time you read or see this we may already have knowledge of what transitting Mars conjunct Pluto, squaring Uranus has delivered. Of course this will be different for each of you as we all have a different set of scenes in our lives where this occurs. I want to emphasize that this need not always be dire on a personal level. I suspect the impact will likely be felt on the global stage. At the same time as this unfolds we have a collection of planets moving together through Scorpio. The Sun, Venus and Saturn are all clustered together in the middle degrees of this sign. Long regarded as a troublesome planet, Saturn, is actually our friend. His influence is associated with responsibility and accountability, without which we would surely fail. So consider him a positive influence in this regard. With Venus along for the time we can expect a responsible outcome to a nagging problem perhaps; one that has plagued us (that's an intentional word, plague) recently. We may see a solution arise from this rather intense period. I will caution you that other events are likely as well. The Mars/Pluto/Uranus activity will demand our attention, so simply keep that in the back of your mind and be prepared. As I mentioned last week this degree is the same as the Grand Cardinal Cross of last April which brought about significant natural events. We may see something similar. Regardless of your view of the cosmos, we have historical data that supports this type of event, and so, it is wise to heed the notice."

Good Morning. The storm has passed.
The air is clear. For this I am grateful.
A thin old quilt is just enough on this slightly chilled morning.
Sweater weather is coming. I can smell it.
There is a sense of that.

A while ago, I considered parting with a lot of the scraps of self around here. As part of my lessening campaign. I had planned to put them in the shop. I reconsidered that idea. Sorting through this cloth that is so close to me, with a merchant mind, was not sitting well. Not at all.
This past week while it rained and rained, I rolled and rolled. It was quite exhausting really but at the same time quite satisfying. Really I was Undoing the kind of organizing I have kept up as a habit in the past. I rolled everything that could be rolled. Except the tiniest of scraps. Although some of those got caught inside as well. Big rolls, little rolls. No regard for color or fiber or what ever. No worry about what was where. Everything I have is rolled. Little packages that I might undo. And look at. And use. Freeing really. And when I tied the bundles, they looked like little figures, arms outstretched. Wings maybe. OK. I have a new idea.
Many cloth selves waiting, resting. For something I will call Small Journeys. It's about Scraps of Selflessness. I will keep you guessing for a while.

I have taken out the only 2 seams. Spread it out flat. Maybe in my mind I was thinking it might become a curtain again. Or specifically a Door panel. Because I don't need it as a robe any longer. And wear has limited the stress that it might endure. I thought I might chop it and piece it back together. But there is so much here. Just like this. I got caught in the looking.
Once you look. Stop to see. You can't un-look. It leaves an impression. The first real look changes you. It gives what you imagined new context. It's right there. I could record this in my mind and then continue to manipulate it into what I imagined. But these days I am more likely to give more importance to looking. To the sense of what catches me. What it is.
What catches me?
The contrast of the old worn cloth against the cleanness of the background cloth, old cloth but not used.
How architectural it has become. How the front opening is like a door.
How the neckband will not lay flat.
How it might become a nine patch.
But then, an after image, after a long stare. How it reminds me of a prayer rug. How it could be that. That is what really catches me. I can so go with that idea. Redefine it. Redefinition might be both an UnDoing and a ReDoing. Which might be a kind of attribution in a way. An honoring of both self and other through a gentle rocking until a new form is born.
I like so many more things here, like how the walnut dye collected in the hems, which have yet to be UnDone. But I will look some more.
I will create 9 larger pieces this year. To complete something.
It is 7 degrees here this morning. Wind is making it feel colder. And I hear maybe two feet of snow is on the way. I will bring a lot of wood inside today and stack it in the studio that is not being heated this winter.
It's warm in here. Not that warm. But warm enough. The patience for winter, that has worn so thin, well, I added another layer this morning and that should hold me till spring.
