About Us
Bartlett High School Band Organization Facts
Varsity Band I, II, III, IV
The Varsity Band is the fully competitive portion of the BHS Band program. Not only does it include our home performances, it includes all off campus performances and competitions. Off campus performances include performances at our middle schools and elementary school, Marching Band competitions, the WTSBOA Concert Festival, and the annual spring enrichment trip. The Varsity Band students are required to attend after school rehearsals on assigned days to prepare for these competitions. There is a fee for this class.
Concert Band I, II (Formerly known as Pep Band)
The Concert Band course offering is our "non-competitive" track. In the BHS Band we understand that some students may not have a family schedule that will permit after school participation in competition rehearsals. We understand that some students wish to pursue Varsity athletics at BHS. We believe that all students should have access to a music education. Concert Band students receive the same classroom instruction as the Varsity Band. However, their performance requirements are limited to home performances, to include home football games, our two home concerts, and the Bartlett Christmas parade. In the Spring Semester, Concert Band students can opt to upgrade and participate in our competitive concert band. This course offering is available to 9th & 10th grades. After two years we ask these students to make a commitment to the Varsity Band in the 11th & 12th grades. The only exceptions to this are students who participate in BHS Varsity Fall Athletics during their 11th or 12th grade years. There is a fee for this class.
Percussion I, II, III, IV
The percussion class is a specialized class for students who play percussion instruments. This class is comprised of both the Varsity Band and Concert band levels of participation. The percussion class is NOT for beginning musicians. Percussion students learn all the marching music and rehearse with the rest of the rest of Varsity Band after school. After the Marching Band season, the percussion class prepares specialized percussion ensemble music for competitions. The percussion class prepares the concert band music with the brass and woodwinds in after school rehearsals. Marching Band percussion instrument assignments are based on the audition process in during the 3rd week of July during the summer band rehearsals.
Marching Band
The Marching Band is the public face of the BHS Band programs. Each Fall Football season the Varsity Band prepares a 7-8 minute marching band field show to perform at football games and marching band competitions. Rehearsals begin the third and fourth week of July. Attendance at the summer rehearsals is required for membership in the Varsity Band. The summer rehearsals will total nearly of 80 hours of instruction including the marching show music and the formations of the field show. Once school starts rehearsal are after school Monday, Tuesday, & Thursday from 2:15-4:30. Percussion and Color Guard has an additional rehearsal on Wednesday from 2:15-4:30 to focus on their skill set with specialized instructors. Competitions are on Saturdays, typically from 3rd Saturday of September through the first Saturday of November. The exact competition schedule will vary from year to year as the band program attends different competitions.
Color Guard
The color guard is a specialty unit of the marching band program. This unit provides visual support to the Marching band show through the use of flags and modern dance. Anyone who wishes to audition for Color Guard must be a registered member of the Varsity Band. Auditions for this group will be held during the first week of summer band. Audition will include ability to learn choreography quickly, and the ability to positively interact with the instructors and their peers. Students interested in this specialty unit must play an instrument in the band program after marching season is over.
Concert Band
Beginning in November, the band classes change over to concert band music. The BHS Band presents two concerts, The January "Pops" concert and the April "Competition music" concert. The band is divided into two performing groups simply known as Varsity and Junior Varsity Concert Band. For the January concert, The band is divided roughly with the 11th & 12th grade in the Varsity Band, and the 9th & 10th grade as the Junior Varsity. Selected students will be asked to perform in both groups to provide complete instrumentation in both groups. After the January concert, the two bands are reorganized by skill level to prepare for our WTSBOA concert band competition in March. Selection for each group is done by auditions. Any student selected for the All West Honor Band is automatically assigned to the Varsity Concert Band. All Remaining seats in both bands are assigned by an internal band audition.
Jazz Band
The BHS Jazz band is an after school enrichment activity that focuses on the jazz style and jazz improvisation. The Jazz Band has been active in the WTSBOA Jazz festival the last 4 years and received a superior rating all four years. The Jazz band is primarily for saxophones, trumpets, trombones, drum set, piano, rhythm and bass guitar, and auxiliary percussion. However we carefully select music that will include other instruments should students who play non-traditional jazz instruments want to participate. On years that we have good student participation we will offer a Junior Varsity Jazz Band as well. Rehearsals after school are typically one day a week and begin each January. The Jazz Program will give a concert each April. There is a $25 fee for this group to pay for each year's music and the buses for competition.
Jazz Combo
Jazz Combo is a small group of Jazz students that specialize in jazz improvisation. A Jazz combo is typically 1-2 lead instruments (melodic), piano, drum set, bass and rhythm guitar. This group prepares music to participate in the WTSBOA Jazz Festival in April. When student participation in this group is high we will have a Junior Varsity Combo as well. The jazz groups will give a concert each April. There is a $25 fee for this group to pay for each year's music and the buses for competition. If a student is in both the Jazz Band and a Jazz Combo, they only pay the fee one time.
Percussion Ensemble
After the marching band season is over, the percussion class specializes in music that is specifically written for percussion groups. The percussionist will learn 20-30 minutes of music from this style and participate in local percussion ensemble competitions. Musical styles will include both the marching and concert percussion mediums. The percussion ensembles will perform in an April concert.
All West Tennessee Honor Band
The BHS Band actively supports our Student's participation in the WTSBOA Honor Band. Each January, students are provided the opportunity to audition for the Senior High, Junior High, Jazz, Orchestra (winds & percussion) Honor Groups. Music is provided to all students in August with auditions in January. The All West rehearsals and concert for those selected is typically the end of January. The BHS Band provides a Band Fee discount of $100 to anyone who is selected and participates in one of the four All West groups. Any student selected for The All State Band Groups will receive a $325 discount of their band fees. The fee applies to the following year's fees. Only Students who are currently attending BHS or are zoned to BHS are eligible for this program. Any senior who is selected and participates in All West will be awarded a $100 textbook scholarship by the Band Booster organization. Any Senior Selected for The All State Band Groups will receive a $325 textbook scholarship.
Solo and Ensemble
Students who wish to participate in Solo & Ensemble will be provided an opportunity to do so through the WTSBOA Solo & Ensemble Festival. This event is traditionally in February.
Spring Enrichment Trip
Each spring the band students are provided an opportunity to travel to a contest destination. The spring enrichment trip is announced in August and a payment schedule is typically available from November to March. The trip destination and costs are on a two-year rotation. One year is a "short trip" and the alternating year is a "long trip". Price of trips can range from $350-$750 depending on destination. The 2015 Trip is currently scheduled for Orlando, Florida. The enrichment trip is not a required trip, but rather for those who wish to participate. Participation in the enrichment trip is limited to the Varsity Band members who competed with the Marching band.
Students in the BHS Band are assessed in two areas; participation and ability to play. The BHS Band is a Performing Arts Ensemble. Meaning, we give performances. Therefore, attendance at rehearsals and performances are a REQUIRED part of the grade. Participation in class DAILY is a required part of the class. Participation includes the student's presence and the student having their instrument, music, and any other musical supply need for that particular rehearsal or performance. In the event of a schedule conflict, the teacher and student will work out a solution on a case-by-case basis. We also require the students to demonstrate that they are learning their music and improving on the instruments by taking playing test. All students are given a copy and one-year subscription to "SmartMusic" assessment software. Students are given playing test assignments through the program. The student has the opportunity to do the assignment over as many times as needed to improve their score. Then the student submits the assignment through the program for a final grade. The program also documents the time spent playing as a practice log that can be graded as well.
The BHS Band receives no revenue from the school district. This means that all expenditures; music, buses, repair, technology is paid for by the band fees the band students pay. Each spring the director submits an itemized budget to the band boosters, and establishes the band fee for the year. The operating budget for the band is funded through the band fee. Expenditures outside of the operating budget and band fee revenue are paid by the band booster organization. These include but are not limited too: The BHS band uniform and supplies, operations of the football concession stands, band banquet, marching band operational supplies, material for props, equipment truck rental, and other unbudgeted expenditures. The booster organization also supervises fund raising activities through the year to assist in the funding of the band program and the Individual Student Accounts (ISA).
Band Fee Schedule:
Varsity Band (Class) Fee $500
Concert Band (Class) Fee $175
Jazz Fee $25
All West Audition Fee $10
Solo & Ensemble Fee $10
Second Child (Sibling) Discount $250(applies to varsity band fee only)

Varsity Band fee is paid in 3 payments:
1st payment Mid-May
2nd payment First Week of Summer Band
3rd Payment First Week of School
Individual Student Accounts
We understand that the Varsity Band fee can be a large lump sum. The BHS Band Boosters provide all students the opportunity to earn the money towards their band fee with fundraisers. With every fundraiser, a percentage of the profit goes to each student's ISA. The ISA balances are managed by the booster organization, and any student with parent's permission can have money moved from their ISA to pay for their individual band fee. Once band fees are paid, any ISA balance a student may have can be applied toward the spring enrichment trip.

Schofield Hall 218
Eau Claire, WI 54702-4004
UW-Eau Claire's JazzFest
To be Held March 31-April 1
(715) 836-4741
(715) 836-2900
MAILED: March 20, 2000
EAU CLAIRE In its 33rd year, the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire's JazzFest has found itself a new location and a day shorter.
"Traditionally we bring in a nationally known military band to kick off the festival with a Thursday night concert," said Robert Baca, associate professor of music and theatre arts and JazzFest director. "This year we wanted to bring more emphasis to small group playing and have, therefore, invited a combo from the Air Force Band of the Great Lakes that will play and participate in events during the day Friday."
This year, JazzFest's evening concerts will take place at Eau Claire Memorial High School due to evaluation of comments from past years.
The newly renovated auditorium offers a greatly improved sound system and auditorium seating for controlled acoustics, Baca said.
"Improved lighting conditions combined with comfortable seating and improved acoustics will insure a clearer, more enjoyable performance," Baca said.
The annual JazzFest is among the nation's largest and longest-running jazz festivals. This year's featured artists include Jon Faddis and Bill Reichenbach.
"Kicking off the introduction of the new performance hall are two of the most diverse jazz titans we have ever invited to our jazz festival," Baca said.
Faddis, trumpet player and musical director of the Carnegie Hall Jazz Band, recently composed and premiered a new jazz opera titled "Lulu Noire" at the Spoleto Festival and the American Music Theatre Festival in Philadelphia. Faddis also served as musical director of Dizzy Gillespie's United Nations Orchestra in 1989 and participated in Lionel Hampton's and Thad Jones/Mel Lewis' big bands.
Reichenbach is a Los Angeles studio trombonist who has appeared on more than 500 albums, 300 motion picture soundtracks and countless television shows. He is a former member of the Buddy Rich and Toshido Akiyoshi big bands and has written and arranged on recordings by Michael Jackson, Quincy Jones and Aretha Franklin.
The festival will begin Friday, March 31, with College Day, which consists of critiqued performances, clinics and master classes with the guest artists. Participants also can attend the 7:30 p.m. concert in Memorial High School's auditorium, which will feature Faddis and Reichenbach, as well as the university's Jazz Ensemble I, Honor College Big Band and Combo. A pre-concert show will begin at 7 p.m. and an open jam session will follow the concert at 10 p.m. at Cameos Restaurant, Eau Claire.
JazzFest continues April 1 with Junior High/High School Day. The schedule is similar to College Day but includes a noon concert in Gantner Concert Hall of the Haas Fine Arts Center and a 4:30 p.m. concert in Zorn Arena for the high school participants. The junior high participants can attend a 12:30 p.m. concert featuring the university's Jazz Ensemble. A 7 p.m. concert in Memorial High School's auditorium will feature Reichenbach, Faddis, the Honor High School Big Band and Combo, the Honor Junior High School Big Band and Combo, and UW-Eau Claire's Jazz Ensemble I. There will be a pre-concert show at 6:30 p.m.
Events during the day are free and open to the public. Tickets for the evening concerts are available at the University Service Center, (715) 836-3727. Tickets are $6 for everyone.

Mountain Goats
Last fall all 10 goat hunters took home billies and
a combo hunter also scored. Best goat went 47 inches with 5-inch plus
This outfitter only had 4 goat hunters in 2012 and all
scored, except for a bowhunter that made one climb and decided goat
hunting wasn't for him. He did end up taking a moose and elk in the low
In 2011 all 15 goat hunters took home billies and in
2010 all 8 hunters took billies. This outfitter located in northeastern
B.C. has a near perfect record over his last 5 years, including several
bowhunters. They have exclusive guiding and outfitting rights to over 4
million acres. 10-day 1 on 1
hunt is $12,500 and you can add additional animals on a $3,500 trophy
fee basis. If you and a buddy want to share a guide the price drops to
$11,250. The outfitter INCLUDES the tax and government royalty fees.
Success typically runs near 100% on goat, moose and elk.
He offers your choice of horseback hunt, river hunt or
backpack hunts. Spike camps are the norm and dates are August 25 to
October 15. Hunters pay for
licenses, tags and charter from Fort Nelson
to base camp for about $1,500.
Hunt MG483.
from this Hunt.
Here is a very inexpensive no frills hunt that
produces some large bodied long-haired goats.
The reason the hunt is so inexpensive, you have to draw the tag,
but odds aren't bad at about a 30% success rate and there is no
preference points involved and a couple buddies can put in together.
Last fall he only had one goat hunter and he took a nice billy on
day three.
This outfitter had been 100% success on billies for
several years until 2010, when the hunts were hampered by some severe
weather. His 3 hunters took
only 1 billy and one hunter passed on a 300 yard plus shot on a 10
incher. Both unsuccessful
hunters rebooked the hunt.
Most hunters don't want to bothered with a draw, so he typically only
gets one or two hunters per year and in 2009 the largest billy taken
went over 10 inches and into the Boone and Crockett record book. In 2008
his only hunter took an old long-haired billy of 9 ½ inches. In 2007 all
4 hunters tagged nice billies and the same goes for 2006 and 2005, with
most goats taken in the 9 to 9 ½-inch range. These backpack hunts tend
to be less physical than most. The highest climb is about 3,000 feet or
four hours for an average hunter, but normally the goats are lower at
1,500 to 2,500 feet elevation making them more accessible. This is still
a physical mountain goat hunt.
A 7-day October hunt guided 1x1 is $7,000 and you can
also add a sitka
blacktail buck for only $2,000. His hunters have taken several Boone and
Crockett bucks. Goat tags are on a draw with a December 6 deadline.
Hunters can apply as a party.
Hunt MG783.
2013 goat hunts continued to be 100 percent
success. Two brothers scored on a 10 ½-inch billy and a 9 ¾ their first
day out. Several 10 inchers were taken throughout the season. The
majority of hunters choose a 8 or 10-day 1x1 hunt, but 2x1 hunts are
available for a couple buddies at a significantly reduced price.
In 2012 all 25 goat hunters scored and this would include 4 or 5
in the 10-inch or better category. In 2011 his 17 moose/goat combo
hunters took 15 billies and 15 bulls. This is typically a horseback
hunt, but sometimes depending on the area it can be backpack. In 2010
all 15 goat hunters
were successful, including 4 billies going over 10
inches. All the moose hunters were successful as well, including 4
record book bulls being taken. As you can see this is a high success
hunt in an area that holds plenty of mature billies.
This 4,500 square mile area located only 60 miles from
Yukon border in the Cassiar Mountains
has high goat numbers and most hunters are tagged out in 3 days. Moose
numbers are also quite high in his area and being near the Yukon border the bulls have fantastic
This premier outfitter offers some bargain priced
hunts, especially for a couple hunting pals that are willing to go
guided 2x1. 8 hunting days 2x1 is only $7,000, 1x1 is $9,900 and add a
second species for only $3,500. 10 hunting days 2x1 is $9,000 or 1x1 is
$12,900 and a second species can be added on a $4,000 trophy fee.
Mountains in his area run
up to 6,500' and timberline is at 4,500'. The valley floor is about
3,000 to 3,500 feet above sea level and they normally hunt between 4,000
and 5,000 feet for goats. Hunters arrive and overnight in Whitehorse. Rent a car to Watson Lake
and roundtrip charter to camp for $1,600 plus licenses, 2.5% GST tax and
$220 hunter preservation fund. HCU's Bob Wodzisz and Cliff Graham have
hunted this area. Hunt MG491.
from this Hunt.
2013 had produced 15 goats for 18 hunters, including
12 bowhunters. Only one hunter that stayed and hunted did not score. 2
hunters left early. One rifle hunter took the best billy that scored
just shy of 53 inches and most goats came in between 45 and 48 inches.
In 2012 all 10 rifle hunters took a billy, INCLUDING 3
OVER 52 INCHES. 6 archers had scored on 4 billies and the 2 unsuccessful
hunters later took billies with a rifle.
This outfitters 4,000 square mile area in the Coastal Mountain
range has produced more of the "Top Fifty" record book goats than any
other area and also has the highest goat density area in
North America. They specialize in bowhunts and their clients
have taken many book billies with archery gear.
The fall hunt is from August 15 to October 15. 10 days
1x1 is $10,400 plus a $2,000 trophy fee. Black bear can be added on a
$2,000 kill fee and they take some monster coastal bears.
Hunters are flown to one of 30 remote lakes for this backpack
The late season winter hunt runs from October 15 to
November 30. Hunters stay at the outfitters home and take day trips
driving logging roads in the area. The billies are rutting and are found
in lower elevations. This hunt can be done by older hunters and is less
physical. 10-day 1x1 is $13,900 plus $2,000 trophy fee.
Prices do include charter flights, but not license,
tags or tax. Hunters are met in Terrace.

Boys Basketball: Richards fends off Reavis
By Tony Baranek email@example.com February 8, 2013 9:30PM
Reavis Eduard Puha (left) guards Richards' Josh Meier. | Judy Fidkowski~For Sun-Times Media
Article Extras
Updated: March 11, 2013 6:33AM
Richards' Josh Meier was pretty tough on the rim during the second half of the Bulldogs' 76-68 victory Friday over host Reavis.
The 6-foot-6 center grabbed it hard while slamming down three dunks and made contact with it on a couple of more attempts.
With about four minutes remaining, the game had to be stopped so the officials could straighten the rim. It remained wobbly.
One of the officials also had a talk with Meier.
"He told me not to dunk again," Meier said, smiling. "He said to just drop it in, because it was bent and old. I don't know, that was the first broken rim of my career."
What didn't break was the Bulldogs' resolve in slamming the door on what was an impressive fourth-quarter comeback by Reavis, which trailed by as many as 18 points before cutting it to four with 30 seconds remaining.
Dedrick Shannon came up clutch for Richards, going 4-of-4 from the free-throw line, while Cortez Harper made a steal and driving layup to lock it up.
Meier finished with 20 points and 12 rebounds, Harper 18 points and Shannon 10 points as Richards (14-9, 6-4) fought back into a first-place tie in conference.
Reavis (15-5, 6-4) was paced by Nick Bal (28 points), Edward Puha (16 points, 9 rebounds) and Joe O'Hara (14 points).
The win was Bulldogs coach John Chappetto's 200th.
"It's pretty special for it to be here," Chappetto said. "I kind of cut my teeth as a young coach having to get ready for Reavis all the time. But more important, it puts us in a tie for first place. We're trying to win eight conference championships in a row."
Drama didn't seem forthcoming in a game that Richards seized control of early. It was 17-10 after one quarter, and Richards enjoyed a double-digit lead for most of the second half. But Puha and Bal, each of whom hit buzzer-beaters to win in two recent games, combined for four treys in the final four minutes. Bal was then fouled while trying another and hit all three to make it 70-66.
Shannon finally ended the drama for Richards.

Lasers set a new record transferring data at blazing fast speeds
Researchers have set a new record for data transfer speeds using a single laser, shooting some data around at an absolutely insane 26 terabits per second.
If you're not quite sure how fast that is, let's just say that there's pretty much no one out there with enough data stored up on their personal computers that would take longer than a fraction of a second to transfer at those speeds. We're talking about dozens upon dozens of full-HD video files, all transferred in a snap. If the cable connecting your iPhone to your computer was this fast, it would have your entire phone filled up with apps, music and videos in about as long as it took your finger to release from the button it pressed to start the transfer. So yeah, fast.
Of course, we're pretty far away from lasers transferring data to your iPhone. But such high-level experiments are paving the way for new methods of data transfer that will eventually trickle down to consumers, and anything that'll save me a few minutes of waiting for files to transfer is A-OK with me.

The famously meticulous star chose well for this excellent collection of from-the-vault tracks. Dating as far back as 1967, the songs here showcase her goose-bump-inducing vocals and endearing interstitial banter. ''Home'' and ''How Are Things in Glocca Morra?'' will thrill fans of The Broadway Album, and ''I Think It's Going to Rain Today'' is flawless. (The one iffy selection: ''Lost in Wonderland,'' a trippy take on Alice.) On ''Being Good Isn't Good Enough'' she sings, ''I'll be the best or nothing at all.'' I think we all know which side of that coin Babs falls on. A-Best Tracks:

Though beautiful views and impeccable maintenance are typically found at long, difficult courses, the staff at Lake Oswego Golf Course believes that beginning and intermediate players should also be able to enjoy a top-notch course while learning the game. At 2,517 yards in total, the 18-hole, par-3 layout removes the physical stress of extreme length. Players can learn to hone in their game while golfing against the backdrop of Mount St. Helens and Mount Adams. Individual holes range between 74 and 179 yards, creating a hole-in-one opportunity on every tee box?provided a golfer can avoid Lost Dog Creek, outstretched tree boughs, and lost center fielders searching for fly balls.
Away from the links, golfers can refuel at the course's on-site restaurant, Casa del Pollo. Here, they can feast on home-style Costa Rican food, including chicken and steak tacos, burritos, and casado con carne?a grilled steak fillet atop a plate of rice, beans, pickled onions, and carrots.
Chef Thu Ha Dinh and her eclectic team at fuAsian merge flavors from a variety of Asian cuisines. Whether they're helming a cooking class or whipping up well-crafted meals for diners or catered events, the chefs use handpicked natural ingredients, creating dishes that ooze earth-culled goodness and each write polite thank-you notes to the ozone layer.
Players plugs gamers into a cavalcade of entertaining diversions while fueling competitive spirits with eats and drinks from a menu of pub mainstays. Satisfy pin-busting urges by bowling on one of 12 sleek lanes ($2–$4.75/game per person; $2.50/shoe rental). Each lane sports a massive flat-screen hovering above pins, helping bowlers catch the game while dominating their own opponents. Decamp to Players' billiards lounge for lessons on trick shots, geometry, or the mating habits of eight-balls staged atop one of the contemporary pool tables ($8–$10/hr.). Players' bar and dining area basks under warm amber lights punctuated by the blue glow of 25 sports-affixed TV screens. Gab with old colleagues about advancements in office pranks over frothy brews (bottle $3.25–$4; draft $3.50–$4.50), goblets of vino ($5+), or one of 10 burgers ($8.99–$10.99). The under-21 set stays occupied in the 8 Ball Lounge, a youth-friendly hideaway packed with shuffleboard tables and sleek seating.
Trainer's Club's 13,000-square-foot facility provides a variety of machines and classes for visitors to magnify muscles and enhance endurance. The one-month membership includes unlimited access to group classes, such as tai chi, yoga, boot camp, and driver's education for unicycles. Flex arm candy on the free weights, work blood pumpers on the cardiovascular machines, or practice balancing or juggling skills with the exercise balls. Increase flexibility and strength by sampling the Pilates group course and personalize the fat-blasting experience with the personal-training session, led by a trainer of the client's choice. The gym also provides a sauna, a steam room, and fully stocked locker rooms to relax and refresh in after a difficult breakup with body fat. Natural lighting, tall ceilings, and the lack of fluorescent lighting give the workout warehouse a small, community-gym atmosphere.
IM=X (Integrated Movement Xercize) fuses the muscle-toning techniques of Pilates with resistance and plyometric jumps for a more athletically geared workout. Limbs will be lengthened during two private reformer sessions, in which a certified instructor familiarizes clients with the reformer equipment, bending physiques to reach their individual fitness goals with ample personal attention.

Pro Tip: Let your coach know of any injuries or concerns before class starts.
Exercise is challenging, and people frequently give up on their fitness routines. How do you keep clients motivated?
We provide personal guidance for your goals, including nutrition, scaling, and exercise modification. But the real secret to your success is our community of supportive students and mentors. We foster a welcoming, family-like atmosphere, infused with humor, challenge and encouragement. Our gym is a place you'll look forward to, and that will empower you with the motivation to succeed.
What is the biggest mistake you see people make when trying to get fit on their own?
The biggest mistake I see people make is searching for short-cuts, gimmicks or easy results. Of course fitness can be simple, but simple isn't necessarily easy. I see too many people go from one method to the next without allowing proper time for success. Find what works for you, and make small adjustments from there. Consistency is the key.
What is a typical session of your program or class like for a student?
We constantly vary our workouts so you'll never get bored and you'll be less likely to plateau or over-train. So every session looks a little different. However, some consistent features of our sessions include a general warm-up followed by guided mobility and stretching. Then we move on to a coached skills learning session and a workout of the day (WOD) with strength training and metabolic conditioning. Sessions conclude with a cool-down and mobility, along with goal-tracking and social time.
Is there anything else you want to add that we didn't cover?
As we enter our 10th year of training, we were originally one of only a few Portland area CrossFit gyms, back before most people had ever heard of CrossFit. We are also expanding our accessibility to become Portland's first and only 24-hour CrossFit gym. Our veteran coaches boast decades of combined training experience, to provide each individual the guidance they need to be safe, confident and successful, regardless of injuries or current fitness level. As of this spring, our new location is housed within a 60,000-square-foot warehouse, yet we maintain hands-on and community driven classes by capping most of them at only 12 students. We also offer more than just CrossFit. We have workshops devoted to boxing, strongman techniques, yoga, and endurance. Students may take advantage of open-gym time outside of class, as well as personal training sessions.

Did you know that there are at least 11 different types of safety or speed cameras that are in use on the roads of the UK? All of these cameras appear in our online database. Below we look at each with further information just a click away.
Starting first with the popular fixed Gatso camera, to the new Truvelo, to Police mobile handhelds, to the average SPECS average speed camera which is becoming an increasingly popular choice. You'll find all these safety cameras either on the road side, on overhead gantries, behind hedges and road traffic signs on Britain's roads. Question is will you spot them, before they spot you?
A speed camera detector or sat nav with a good speed camera database may be the answer, read more below about the different types of detectors that help keep you on the right side of the law and your licence intact.
Gatso speed cameras have been on Britain's roads since the early nineties. These rear facing fixed safety cameras photo the vehicle on the near side of the road capturing the vehicle along with its number plate. Gatso's use radar technology to trigger the camera, so it's possible to detect these speed enforcement cameras using a radar detector. Read more.
New Truvelo speed cameras are the latest speed camera to take the UK's roads. With a sleek and futuristic looking design these new cameras also house the latest digital technology too. Being completely digtal means there is no film to collect (or run out), instead using a ADSL or 3G connection the cameras photos of speeding motorists can be sent wirelessly to a back office. Read more.
Truvelo speed cameras are the second most popular fixed speed camera used on Britain's road. The big difference between the Gatso and Truvelo safety camera, is the fact that Truvelo is a forward facing camera. Being forward facing means when triggered it takes a photo of the front of the vehicle including the driver, so unlike with the Gatso there is NO dispute who was driving. Read more.
Mobile speed cameras make up a large number of the speed trap sites across the UK, though of course by their nature they're not always in use. Favoured spots include on bridges, in laybys and residential areas. You could expect to find them anywhere, however when siting a mobile speed camera, the Police or local authority should place signs warning you to their use. Read more.
SPECS speed camera usage is on the increase on the UK's roads, as unlike other fixed point speed cameras like Gatso, SPECS systems take an average speed of your vehicle over a set distance, which might be as much as several miles. A common sight in roadworks, these cameras are now being used at more and more locations. Read more.
Traffic Light cameras aren't that easy to spot, why? Because when the law changed in 2001 ensuring that all speed cameras must be painted bright yellow. The change in law didn't apply to red light cameras. Sited naturally at road junctions controlled by traffic light signals, these cameras catch motorists going through when the lights have turned red. Read more.
SpeedCurb speed cameras is a rear facing fixed speed camera just like Gatso. Unlike Gatso which uses radar, SpeedCurb uses strips in the roads surface to trigger the camera when a vehicle passes too fast over them. Commonly sited at the side of the road, Speed Curb can also be sited on a central reservation and twin cameras fitted, covering both directions simultaneously. Read more.
Peek speed cameras are fixed road side cameras that work just like the Gatso using radar technology. As a vehicle passes the rear facing camera too fast the radar signals are triggered and a photograph is taken. Like a Gatso safety camera, using a radar detector in your vehicle will detect live in-use Peek cameras. Read more.
DS2 mobile sites are a cross between a fixed and a mobile site. DS2 works using embedded speed strips in the roads surface (to a fixed point), but only when the Police or Safety Camera Partnership team have their equipment connected to the site (making it mobile). Read more.
Watchman speed cameras aren't that widely used across the UK and only appear in a small number of counties. Watchman like Peek and Gatso cameras use radar technology to calculate a passing cars, van, HGVs speed. If the vehicle is driving above the speed limit, the Watchman safety camera then takes a photo of the offence. Read more.
SpeedSpike speed cameras are the latest cameras that are being trialled on Britain's roads. SpeedSpike works just like SPECS average speed camera, using ANPR technology linking a series or network of cameras over a set distance. This creates a speed controlled zone, rather than just a snap shot at the cameras location. Read more.
Early devices merely detected using either a laser or radar detector which were great for detecting Gatso and Police mobile locations, problem was as other speed enforcement devices e.g. Truvelo cameras were used these were undectable using a more conventional radar/laser detector.
The only way to detect against the undetectable was to survey and plot all the camera locations across the country and incorporate the data into a database. The database was then coupled with GPS (Global Positioning System) technology and a new breed of GPS speed camera detectors were born.
Along with the cameras exact GPS co-ordinate, the database could also be programmed with extra information including the type of the speed camera, the road speed limit and even the road name or number.
Today, dedicated speed camera detectors still exist with the latest the Road Angel Gem+ updating automatically as you drive. In addition sat navs and other GPS devices like smartphones now also include speed camera locations as a monthly or annual subscription.

By far the largest and most important activity of the Consortium Research Fellows Program (CRFP) is the placement of graduate students as Research Fellows and undergraduate students as Research Assistants. Each student works on a team on an Army sponsored research project and is mentored by a government professional. Fellows and Assistants become involved in their teams' projects, participating in literature reviews, experimental design, survey design, data collection and analysis, computer programming, website design, report writing, and other related activities. Most are students of computer science, economics, education, engineering, information systems, operations research, psychology, or sociology. The sponsoring agencies gain substantial technical and analytical assistance while the students acquire excellent applied experience and also receive financial support. Positions become available throughout the year, and we are happy to keep applicants' materials on file for potential future placement.
For more information, please visit the CRFP website @ www.consortium-research-fellows.org, or email the director, Dr. Robert S. Ruskin (firstname.lastname@example.com).

Media Day
Media Day was . . . well, it was kind of blah. I picked up my credentials for our staff at the newspaper, grabbed a dozen media guides (nice cover, with four shots of 2008 IL Hall of Fame inductee and Rochester's Mr. Baseball Joe Altobelli) and talked to a few players. It was kind of crowded with all of the TV people. They all piled into Stan Cliburn's office, and I left my tape recorder in there running while I chatted up a few players.
Then I heard that Stan was looking for me, so I went in and did a one-on-one interview. That's one of the things I like about Stan. He knows who is there day in and day out, win or loss. He's loyal like that, and I appreciate it. He told me to call him on his cell after Tuesday's workout to get the starting lineup for Thursday's opener.
The biggest surprise that came out of my interview with Stan was news that Howie Clark has locked up the starting second baseman's job. A few weeks ago, I wasn't sure Howie would even make the team. I wanted him, too, because I know how valuable he can be in many ways. He's a clutch and versatile player and a great clubhouse guy.
I was also surprised that Tommy Watkins, whom Stan called "the MVP of last year," doesn't have a clear position. Tommy will be moved around, and I hope he can get regular at-bats.
Garrett Jones is 90 percent outfielder, 10 percent first baseman at this stage of his career (a good thing considering that guy Morneau is still in Minny). Glen Perkins will get the start in Thursday's opener in Richmond.
Enjoyed speaking with Howie, Ricky Barrett, Denard Span, Bobby Korecky and a few others. I didn't get to meet as many "new" Wings as I would have liked, but that will happen. It's a long season.
My friend Norm Kieffer, sports information director at St. John Fisher, called to tell me a story. He was at JFK in New York yesterday, returning from vacation, and he spotted an attractive blonde. So he walked up to her and said "Aren't you Mrs. Casey Daigle?" The woman – Jennie Finch – smiled and confirmed her identity. She was on her way to Rochester.
Josh Whetzel, the Wings' broadcaster, gave me a quick tour of the expanded visitors' clubhouse today. They basically opened up part of a wall that separated the clubhouse from the community clubhouse, where the ushers dress. It's not bad. I guess they got tired of me including the "broom closet-sized clubhouse" in my annual list of needed improvements.
Now if someone can put the distance markers down the two lines high enough so that fans can see them, I'm good. I'd have Spikes – the team mascot – holding up a sign with the distance on it.
The Wings work out at Frontier Field again at noon on Tuesday, and they fly to Richmond on Wednesday.
I'll have my annual preview in Thursday's D&C, and online also, of course.

AdeedahGap T.G.I.F. Summertime
I think this was worth it, because every time I log on to 43things, I see this goal, and I think there is always something to be thankful for and I do it. I think the next goal will be to write 5 things im thankful for a week, for 30 days.

Imagine an RV park where you can use your own vehicle or enjoy a cabin with electricity, water, septic, and high-speed Internet. Now imagine the same place surrounded by a wildlife preserve, miles of hiking trails, and a stargazer's paradise under the darkest sky in North America. Think you can't afford it? Think again...
"Granite Gap will be a unique place where a continuous star party under world-class dark skies goes hand in hand with rock collecting, mining history, rocket launches, planetarium shows, a mineral museum, birding, horseback riding, and an exploration of the rich history of the Old West. No other place on Earth blends science, art, history, and adventure in this way."

Well what's happend this week? Thursday I had the Abacoa Sept. 11 performance. It was funny. Or at least I was funny looking. Check it out for yourselves on the WIRK website. Hmm Friday was school and such. I found out I made the play, but I'm playing a swing role again. Kinda sucks, but i'll get over it, or not. And the later would be rough, I mean what kinda of scary bar tale would I have to say 10 years from now about me knocking out Helen Keller in an attempt to upstage her. But I must be gracious. Damnit. Following that I went to the show with Courtney, It was good seeing her, we need to hang out more!! Sat. was fun. I went on the new Island Runner (sorry Rach had to name drop). Yeah fast, this boat went like 60 mph. I'll never need a face lift in my life thanks to that ride. Sunday was pretty relaxed. And now it's tuesday. I have clothes for homecoming. Woohoo. Very scene. And I plan on getting an academic award this year, although it maybe in Finite Math, I have goals and that's what counts. I can't wait to perform the dance on Friday, it'll be tyte(is that how one would spell tight when trying to sound cool?)!!! It's so ghetto..well i guess It's not PC to say ghetto so I suppose it's Urban? well anyway, If you're at asssembly this Friday you'll check me out in my b* dizzle(yeah so not the B* dazzlers anymore) uniform pants, you're first thoughts will be "Damn Girl, shake that Urban booty". They will, wait and see. Ok G'nite all.

AJAX Web Form for Adding Multiple Records to MVC Database
This blog post describes a simpler way to implement this complex task. I will be taking advantage of a Simple PHP UI Framework — Agile Toolkit. This will help me focus on the UI logic of the form instead of technical implementation and get job done within a very short time and little effort.
I set a number of goals in front of me, which are impossible to achieve with plain PHP or even with others, more complex frameworks. This example also helps to illustrate approach of Agile Toolkit in building Web UI, creating re-usable code and using AJAX. My goals are:
- Code must be no longer than 50 lines of code, no custom HTML or JavaScript;
- Must look very simple to read and understand;
- User can continue entering data without stopping using Tab key and keyboard only;
- Data must be submitted and saved automatically;
- Must work with any Model therefore can be used for purpose of adding any type of record;
- Must never reload page or make user wait. Should work even on slow internet connection;
- Resulting code must be re-usable and customizable.
Agile Toolkit was a great help. I successfully completed all the requirements and produced a clean data entry screen. In fact, the solution works so great that I turned it into official add-on. Any user of Agile Toolkit can take advantage of this add-on by writing:

How to Get Rid of Stains and Odors
Pet Peeves 6-10
By Heloise
Special Offers
Pet Peeve 6
Smelly Dishwasher
First check to be sure the drain hose is not crimped and look in the bottom of the machine for bits of food and gunk. Believe it or not, a dishwasher should be cleaned and deodorized occasionally. Pour a gallon of household vinegar in the bottom, let it sit for an hour or so, then run the washer through a full cycle. To help remove hard-water buildup, simply add a half cup of citric acid powder (available at supermarkets) and run the dishwasher. If the odor is still strong, call a plumber, because it could be a potentially hazardous problem that needs to be remedied by a pro.
Pet Peeve 7
Lipstick Marks
Lipstick can usually be removed with rubbing alcohol. Get two hand towels; lay one out and place the garment, lipstick stain facedown, on it. Dip the other towel in the rubbing alcohol and use it to dab the back of the stain. Repeat until stain is gone. Marks made by lipsticks formulated to be long lasting or by those with a lot of gloss may need several treatments.
Pet Peeve 8
Cleaning Silver
Both sterling and silver-plate utensils (except hollow-handle knives) can be washed in the dishwasher as long as you stop the machine before the drying cycle, take the pieces out and hand-dry them. Do not put these utensils in the same basket with stainless steel, because this could damage the sterling. For long-term care, a good-quality silver cream or polish is still the way to go.
Pet Peeve 9
Smoke Fumes on Clothing
Normal laundering should remove the odor from washables. For winter coats and heavy sweaters, many fabric-refresher sprays do a good job. But if there has been a fire and the smoke smell is awful, find a dry cleaner that has an ozone cleaner.
Pet Peeve 10
For washable clothes, soak garment in cold water for about 30 minutes -- that will usually do the trick. However, if you still see a mark, mix a little water with unseasoned commercial meat tenderizer (which breaks down the protein in the blood) and apply to the affected area. If the fabric can't be laundered at home, take it to the dry cleaner ASAP. Point out the stain and let the professionals save the garment.

A good friend has a new diabetes book out that really speaks to us.
It's all about those times in our diabetes lives when we feel the pressure of our broken pancreas weighing on us… when we reach the end of our ropes so to speak and just feel like we can't go on doing what we know we need to do.
The title of this latest work by fellow type 1, life coach and accomplished author Ginger Vieira pretty much says it all: "Dealing with Diabetes Burnout: How to Recharge and Get Back On Track When You Feel Frustrated and Overwhelmed Living with Diabetes."
This is a welcome and very timely addition to my personal collection at the moment, given that the issue of D-burnout is often top of mind for me. I've experienced it countless times over my three decades of living with type 1 diabetes, and am actually struggling to climb out of that burnout hole again at this moment. The book is also particular timely given all the current conversation about the distinctions between depression, distress and burnout.
This is actually the third book by Ginger, who was diagnosed 15 years ago and works as a personal health coach (and is of course well-known in the online community as part of the DiabetesDaily team). Ginger wrote "Your Diabetes Science Experiment" in 2011 and then last year, released a book on emotional eating. Her newest 244-pager on D-burnout follows the theme of dealing with the emotional aspects of this exasperating illness.
If you've been living with diabetes for any extended period of time, the topics explored in Ginger's book may not be too surprising. They're pretty standard for what you'd expect in a guide on diabetes burnout — everything from bumps in the road re: food, exercise, blood sugar checks, doctor relationships, and communicating with others about diabetes. But Ginger's personality is unique and refreshing above all else, so she brings a unique style to addressing these topics that really makes this book stand out. In fact, Ginger's done something remarkable here: she's managed to make reading about diabetes burnout fun.
Little things like adding some flair to her chapter titles make a big difference — like "When Every Number Feels Like a Grade," and "Yes, I Ate 17 Cookies… So Sue Me!" and "I Haven't Checked My Blood Sugar In Three Weeks (Ehhh… Months)." Those titles totally pulled me into the chapter, making me laugh or nod my head as I started reading the respective chapter with tips, tricks, and activity worksheets.
Right from the start, she talks about striving not to be perfect, but to do your best in balancing all the things diabetes requires of you. She notes that there's no standard definition of diabetes burnout, but rather that feeling "can come come in purple, round, tall, or be covered in spots (i.e. it varies for everyone)."
The best parts, IMHO, are that it's also a community-collaborative book that includes dozens of insights from other people living with diabetes, even several "Type Awesome" friends and family members involved in our lives. I counted 32 D-Community folk specifically, along with a handful of others who chimed in on the professional level or were cited for their own work, plus Ginger lists several diabetes community sites where people can turn to for help in dealing with diabetes.
I'm honored to have contributed to this book myself, with a brief snippet about my D-support team included in the latter pages (see page 202, if you're curious). Plus our own Ask D'Mine columnist Wil Dubois is also one of the many cited, on page 99.
Ginger's book is also interactive, just like her previous book, in the sense that she includes some very helpful worksheets and activity suggestions to prompt you to dig deeper into your own D-world and any burnout you may be going through.
I very munch enjoyed the part where Ginger suggested thinking about diabetes emotions like you're being interviewed by Oprah, Barbara Walters, Jimmy Fallon or some other famous media icon. How would you tell one of them about your feelings, worries and stresses related to diabetes?
In another chapter, Ginger describes her 100-pound goldendoodle dog named Blue and how stressful it was when he was a puppy during mud season, because she felt like she way always cleaning up. In a perfect analogy to diabetes, she describes how she looks back and wonders how she could be stressed over Blue just being a dog? After all, messes are just what dogs do… Same goes for D-burnout, as "it's simply a fact of life that there will be times in my life when I just don't have the energy and motivation I need to keep up with my diabetes as well as I'd like to." Now Ginger has learned to appreciate Blue's boundless energy and spirit because that's what makes him her dog — and she tries to have the same approach to all the daily aspects of diabetes. Love the analogy, Ginger!
As mentioned, I've been dealing with diabetes burnout myself recently so Ginger's book has been a big help for me in working out some of the emotional and mental particulars. I'm always encouraged by tips or tricks from other PWDs. And it was especially helpful to use Ginger's activity worksheets that guided me to go through the chapters and jot down notes about how I feel, and then use that to dissect my current situation and think about moving forward more productively.
So, I give Ginger's newest book two boluses up (err… thumbs up!).
Released on June 18, 2014, "Dealing with Diabetes Burnout: How To Recharge and Get Back On Track When You Feel Frustrated and Overwhelmed Living with Diabetes" is available on Amazon.com for $9.99 in Kindle format and $14.09 in paperback.

Intel Says Tiny Atom Chip Off to the Races
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Sales of Intel Corp's (INTC.O: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) Atom processors, designed for consumer electronics gadgets and super-slim personal computers, are topping company targets as the world's largest chipmaker seeks to expand beyond a slowing PC market.
"Atom is off to a very, very rapid start, far exceeding our expectations when we started the year," Chief Financial Officer Stacy Smith said in an interview on Tuesday. "It's the perfect recession product to have in the marketplace.
Atom is designed to go into low-cost gizmos that Intel calls Mobile Internet Devices and Netbook computers as well as other devices that may appeal to consumers tightening their belts in the face of a slackening economy.
"It plays very well in the mobile marketplace; it plays in emerging markets; it plays into people's desire to have a second PC, or one for the kids that's low-cost yet still capable," Smith said of Atom. "It's off to the races."
That said, the market for Atom is still nascent, and it's unclear just how large the segments Atom is targeted at will become. Intel faces slowing growth in its mainstay PC business and needs to find new areas of sales growth.
"We'll know kind of in six months how much of this demand (for Atom) is real and how much is customers thinking they're going to win in the market place and double-ordering," Smith added. "It seems to be growing the market rather than cannibalizing existing PC sales."
He also stuck to his forecast for overall revenue in the current third quarter of $10.0 billion to $10.6 billion. "Of course I'm still comfortable with it. It's still my forecast."
Analysts currently expect the company to have third-quarter revenue of $10.3 billion, according to Reuters Estimates.
"It's a very uncertain macro environment," Smith said. "It's not true just in the United States; it's true in Europe in terms of slowing growth. That being said, what we've seen in the last nine months is our business being pretty normal."
Intel last month reported a 25 percent rise in quarterly profit, helped by strong sales of its microprocessors used in notebook computers, and gave a forecast that topped expectations at the time. It continues to do well despite a weak global economic environment, aided by market share gains against smaller rival Advanced Micro Devices Inc (AMD.N: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz).
Smith said in the first half of 2008, Intel bought back $5 billion in stock and boosted its dividend. "I'm not giving a forward-looking forecast, but we'll continue to use buybacks and dividends to return excess cash to investors," he said.
Smith also said he was not unduly concerned about Atom cannibalizing sales of its existing Core chips, but allowed that he would not mind sales of Atom eating a bit into those of its low-cost Celeron processors.
"If it's cannibalizing from the Celeron part of the market, I'll take that any day," Smith said.
He said Intel gets about 2,500 Atom processors per silicon wafer, meaning that its profitability on Atom -- while not as great as on a Core or Xeon chip -- is still quite healthy.
Smith also said interest among customers that would use Atom in the embedded market has been strong. While it takes longer for Intel to realize revenue from the embedded market because of longer design cycles, once its product has been designed into a car or cable box, it remains there for years.
"They now have a product that's designed much more for their market than what they've had available to them in the past," Smith said of Atom in the embedded market. "They're getting great interest from their own customer base."
"By the time you get into the second half of 2009, (Atom) could be driving some noticeable incremental growth" in the embedded market, Smith said.
Smith also said despite economic uncertainty in markets worldwide, Intel's own business continues to hold up well.
He believes the strength of its product lineup relative to Advanced Micro's, as well as a rapid move to mobile PCs and devices, is helping Intel to weather uncertain economic times.
"Even in the downturn, we're seeing investments in technology continue," Smith said.
Intel shares rose 14 cents to close at $24.52.

We booked some frioends into the hotel for a wedding nearby. They had uniformly bad experiences. Paper thin walls,
dreadful breakfast, sleepy staff.
won't make the same mistake again.
Lovely small hotel. Very friendly staff. Elegant restaurant with an extensive menu. On sunday and mondays the restaurant is for patrons only and we were informed that the menu was more limited. We were very impressed when presented with the menu as found it provided a great choice of food. Excellent value as they provide a 3 course meal with...
This was emergency accomodation for us following a fire at home, we should have stayed longer but we made our excuses the following morning and moved to another hotel.

We visit Stoke once a year and after finding the Haydon would never stay anywhere else. Dinner in the evening is always a mouthwatering experience, the menu offers plenty of choice. The breakfast is excellent ,again the choice is wide. True the decor in the bedrooms is dated.but the service is always friendly and helpful.
We recently stayed at the Haydon House hotel for a friends wedding that was held there. Although the overall experience was good, it wasnt astounding.
We phoned up in the morning to see what time we could check in. They told us 2pm, which was when the wedding started. So we waited. When we arrived, our friends had already checked...
This was a dreadful experience. They advertised as pet friendly. What they meant was that you could have dogs iny our room when you were there.
They also said that they had won awards for their food. The service was terrible, the food was unimaginitive and the portions were small.

Nesting Nights: Rehab Redux
Editor's note: This is the last in a series of six blog posts from Emily and Kerri Lynn's trip to North Carolina to watch loggerhead sea turtles nesting. The most recent post was about a full loggerhead nesting.
After witnessing our first full loggerhead nesting, we woke up early, drank some much-needed coffee, then drove over to Jean Beasley's Sea Turtle Hospital on Topsail Island, NC. After visting last year, I was curious to see how things had changed.
When we arrived, Jean and her team of interns were saying a tearful goodbye to a loggerhead sea turtle, Coastie, who died that morning after getting surgery at NC State in Raleigh.
"We can't save them all, but we do the best we can," Beasley told the group of solemn students ranging from middle-school to college age.
Currently housing 22 sea turtles, the hospital is getting too big for its britches. Everywhere you look, including the bathroom, are pools with sea turtles in them. A new, much bigger facility is in the works, but Beasley said she's far from having the funding needed to complete the project.

Nesting Nights: The Real Thing
Editor's note: This is the fifth in a series of blog posts from Emily and Kerri Lynn's trip to North Carolina to watch loggerhead sea turtles nesting. The most recent post was about beach erosion.
As promised, I have more to report on our expedition to Bald Head Island, NC. After 3 nights on the island, Kerri Lynn and I had seen a female loggerhead's false crawl and the end of a female nesting.
With only one night remaining, we were really hoping to see the whole nesting process. We got our chance on the fourth night at 2 a.m. When we got to the beach it was starting to rain, and there was no moon in sight.
The interns told us that they had seen five sets of tracks -- all false crawls -- two of which they think were this female, since the tracks appeared similar. The turtle was at work digging her egg chamber, but we stayed at a distance to make sure we didn't scare her off.
We stayed quiet and still, waiting for her to go into the nesting "trance" to get closer. We all turned our flashlights off, and as our eyes adjusted to the darkness, we could see glints of bioluminescent algae on her shell.
As soon as she started dropping eggs into the chamber, the interns gave us the go-ahead to get closer. They got busy measuring her shell and checking her for tagging IDs while we watched the eggs drop into the sandy pit she'd neatly dug. There was a noticeable chunk taken out of the back of her shell. The interns guessed that a predator had taken a bite when she was a juvenile.

|Fatih Camii
|Political information
The Fatih Camii was a mosque in Constantinople.
Fatih Camii was built by the Turks just after the conquest of Constantinople, and was the first mosque of Ottoman origin in the city. After Sultan Mehmet realized that the dome of Fatih Camii was built smaller than Hagia Sophia, he had the architect's hand cut off for lack of ambition.
- The name was coined from Ottoman Turkish words fātiḥ, meaning "conqueror", and camii, meaning "mosque", resulting in "Conqueror's Mosque".

Where once where the main site was located, is now home to my personal blog…
And I do mean "personal", meaning you won't find here much dating tactics and social advices to charm your good-ole high-school sweetheart or that love of your life you just found…
But just get to know more about me and myself and stuffs like that, adventures I get into, personal hobbies like surfing, working out, and music, and occasional embarrassing moments of me singing in my friends' music studio.
I go to great length to do all this for your own entertainment pleasure only…metaphorically speaking.
Sort of a "diary" for lack of a better word, hopefully without sounding to girly….alright fine, maybe "chronicle" would sound much more manly.
It's just an easy way for you to stay updated and what goes on behind the scene in my normal life, without ever needing to always come-off like some big arrogant guru-hotshots like other folks.
Think of this like a never-ending journey we're going on to mastery and enlightenment of different aspects of life.
I will also get into issues of interest to men such as working out, sports, martial arts, men's health, lifestyle, spirituality, self growth, etc.
As said before, rather than just talking about meeting women and improving your dating and sex life to and refining your social skills for better social life, this is much boarder personal development; however, I will get into those topics but just not as deep and in-depth. Yet if that's a more targeted area you need, go back to the main site Social Natural.
Basically, this is just a place to let go and be free, and just to remind you that I'm just a normal personal and not some archangels.
And as always, I encourage you to participate in on the discussion and post any comment and question you have, and sort of let me get to know you a little bit.

Does your insulin always come packed carefully in ice? Or perhaps not anymore? Medical insurers, notably CVS/Caremark, are cutting costs by skimping on packaging used to keep insulin safe during shipping. And a bunch of PWDs are mad as hell about it.
T1 writer and advocate Riva Greenberg wrote to me not long ago saying:
"What they are doing is cutting costs by not packing insulin in cold gel packs anymore if they determine the temperature is between 32 and 86 where you live when they send it. And, they make it sound like a benefit, 'Even tough insulin manufacturers say that it is okay to store insulin for limited time periods at temperatures up to 85 degrees, CVS Caremark is taking extra care to make sure that your insulin is protected by shipping insulin with a cold gel pack if the temperature in your area is forecasted to be 78 degrees or higher.' Yet, they used to ALWAYS ship insulin with a cold pack, so this is a lower standard of care. And what's to say the storage facility where your insulin lay overnight is not above or under the quoted temperature they are going by?"
Riva thinks it's an outrage, and possibly just the beginning of the kind of cost-cutting we're going to see in healthcare that could be potentially dangerous.
Another T1 advocate named Ellen Ullman (a research associate at Close Concerns), who lives in balmy Florida, has just started a group on LinkedIn to protest CVS Caremark's "unacceptable and unethical insulin shipping practices." Not sure why she chose LinkedIn, but there you'll find a growing number of discussions on the recourse for patients who want to change this policy.
According to input from Dr. William Quick (of DiabetesMonitor), "there is a precedent for the FDA taking action against drugstores for failing to keep insulin in spec." Back in 2001, he explains, Sanofi-Aventis notified the FDA of problems resulting from Walgreens shipping insulin in non-refrigerated condition. The FDA ordered Walgreens to conduct a product recall under the title: "Temperature Abuse-product shipped unrefrigerated by recalling firm" (described here).
I've only had a shipment of insulin go bad once, but it took me DAYS of high blood sugars, discomfort and aggravation to figure it out and correct the problem. Even if you live in a temperate climate, there's no way of knowing what your insulin goes through on its way to you. So I'd say, skimping on gel packs is just petty pinching, bound to cause more trouble than it's worth.
So if insulin shows up on your doorstep NOT packaged with a protective gel pack, what would you do? Assume it's OK? Call the company to protest? Watchful trial and error?
As long as the mail order service says they're monitoring for "temperature in your area forecasted to be 78 degrees or higher," are you concerned about this?
