Bemidji State University joins the greater Bemidji region in mourning the death of Joe Lueken, who leaves behind an enduring legacy through his generous support for the university and its students.
Lueken and his wife, Janice, have been major benefactors of BSU, and the successful businessman also gave freely of his expertise, leadership and optimistic spirit, said university President Richard Hanson.
Joe Lueken was compassionate, caring and courageous, Hanson said Monday, and he expressed those things in his service to the university. I think he really showed us the power of commitment as he interacted with us on almost a daily basis.
He described Luekens death as an incredible loss for the community and for Bemidji State in particular.
All of us will feel the loss of this powerful and giving individual, Hanson said.
Lueken died early Sunday morning after battling cancer, his family confirmed Monday. He was 72.
In partnership with his wife, Luekens support for BSU grew along with his business, Luekens Village Foods, and so did his involvement with the university.
At BSU, the Luekens have funded and endowed numerous full-tuition scholarships and been major supporters of both the Music Department and Beaver Athletics.
Then-BSU President Jim Bensen invited Joe Lueken to serve on the BSU Foundation Board of Directors in 1999, and he continued to serve in a lifetime appointment.Lueken played a significant role in the universitys decision to launch Imagine Tomorrow, its first-ever comprehensive fund-raising campaign, and he confidently encouraged the BSU Foundation to set an ambitious goal of $35 million. He also helped inspire such special events as Community Appreciation Day and the Green & White Dinner and Auction.
He challenged us to stretch, Hanson said. It was powerfully motivating. Were really going to miss him.
On behalf of the university community, Hanson said, We extend our heartfelt condolences to the entire family and in particular to Jan, his lifelong supporter.
Rob Bollinger, executive director for university advancement, BSU Alumni & Foundation, also expressed his deep sense of loss upon Luekens passing.
Joe was one of the most unique and incredible people I have ever met, Bollinger said. It is impossible to replace Joe Lueken, but his legacy will serve as an example of service and commitment for many years to come.
The Bemidji Pioneer has a story on Lueken's passing with additional information regarding his life and service to the people of Bemidji.

Minnesota Wild's Matt Moulson celebrates after scoring during the first period of the NHL hockey game against the New York Islanders, Tuesday, March 18, 2014, in Uniondale, New York. Moulson is returning to Buffalo, signing a US$25-million, five-year deal with the Sabres. THE CANADIAN PRESS/AP/Seth Wenig

BUFFALO, N.Y. - Matt Moulson is returning to Buffalo, signing a US$25-million, five-year deal with the Sabres.
The goal-scoring winger who was traded twice last season, first from the New York Islanders to the Sabres for Thomas Vanek and then to the Minnesota Wild, reportedly has a no-trade clause in this contract.
Moulson had 23 goals and 28 assists last season. In 394 career games, the 30-year-old has 141 goals and 134 assists.
The Sabres also signed Brian Gionta from Montreal and made a deal with the Canadiens for defenceman Josh Gorges.

I haven't heard a beep from the guy who I met for coffee last Friday. I like him. Today is Thursday so if he hasn't made contact yet, he is not interested. What a bumper.
Also I am not happy at work.
The environment is too toxic. My ally is resigning and the brown noser has got this position.
My life is currently at rock bottom...
Is it the weather? I am feeling so blue nowadays. I don't want to come to work.
|Thu, 10-04-2012 - 5:32pm
When your job is making you miserable & becomes a toxic work environment, it's time to start looking. My old gig became very toxic to the point where I detested coming into work because I knew as soon as I walked into that front door, it was time I go into bitch mode just to survive. Even when I would come home at the end of the day from work, it came w/me. I never could leave work at work and I was on-call a lot. It got to the point where I wasn't sleeping at night and having anxiety attacks. Eventually I started looking for another job & got hired at the place I'm at now. It's much better and I wouldn't go back to my previous gig even if they offered me a six figure salary. Your mental health is too important.
As far as the guy, have you tried texting him since then? If you have and still haven't heard back from him, then I'd keep moving forward and not give it a second thought. It's part of the dating game. You go on one date to test the waters and sometimes you hear back from them and sometimes you don't.
|Thu, 10-04-2012 - 5:52pm
I agree with wishful.. she gave some good advice.. Just look around for another job.. The job market is bad but hey you never know ?? As far as the guy I would give it one more try and then yes move on. There are plenty of fish in the sea.. just keep looking.
So the weekend is coming up so here is a chance to do something nice for yourself.. Remember self care first.. Take a walk in a nice park, buy an outfit, go window shopping, stop at the zoo or take in the nice plants at the best gardens.. Take a long hot bubble bath.. Draw some pictures and then look at your artwork.. Get a massage.. They must have some cheap ones at the mall (lol)...
Take care of you and then things look much brighter.. Trust me it works..
|Thu, 10-04-2012 - 6:57pm
Your post was spot on. I also go into the bitch or withdrawal mode at work just to survive through the day. I am no longer social or chatty.
I am also getting heartburn and anxiety attacks. It is time to start looking around.
I did texted the guy and he responded just now. He said he has been sick and also been working longer hours.
Is this you in the pic? You are so pretty. I remember reading your posts from years ago. I really thought you found somebody then you never post again. But nice to have you around
|Thu, 10-04-2012 - 7:02pm
The guy is just the straw that broke the camel's back. The weather? Where do you live? Here in So. Cal is nice and sunny. I know when you're not happy, the surrounding doesn't change that. At the same time seasonal affective disorder is a real thing. I even experience a little depression for no particular reason when the weather is gloomy.
What is going on at work?.
|Thu, 10-04-2012 - 7:09pm
Hope you are doing well.
|Thu, 10-04-2012 - 7:18pm
I don't mean to hijack your post, but I can relate to you for sure.......if work is getting to you that badly, it's definitely time to move on. We spend most of our waking lives at work and it's not good to feel so negative about the whole thing.
I can also relate regarding the guy situation - I've had a lot going on with me over the last year or so (as I've posted!! lol) and I just don't feel ready to date yet. It's hard to have a few things on the go and then you're on pins and needles checking your phone to see if he called.........someone said don't worry - there are plenty of fish in the sea - I agree. Unfortunately I'm not ready for all that yet again. I find too with a lot of guys on OLD, they are not really serious about meeting someone and just haphazardly 'meet up' then may or may not call, for whatever reason........
I have a (relatively) new job but going through some job stress still.......happy with the company but the receptionist is off for a couple of weeks for knee surgery (I'm covering) and it's been a real challenge. I specifically addressed with her what she wanted me to tell people, but come the day it seems much of upper management were not aware that she was going to be off, which left me in an awkward situation explaining. Some people too are questioning little things I have to do.....it feels really uphill right now.......thank goodness it's only for a couple of weeks.
Not sure if you're in Canada but at least it's our Thanksgiving week-end this week-end........!!! Hopefully that will help.......

My boss and I used to be close and we used to eat lunch together. Then someone resigned and this new girl was hired. Now my boss is close friends with this new girl and they eat lunch together now. Basically I was discarded. It hurts me to see them so close and I feel excluded. I have to add that my position is more senior and I cannot afford hang out at lunch like they do.
Now I know how it feels to be on the other side of the fence. I used to be boss favourite. So bascially I am getting a taste of my own medicine.
Maybe they called it karma.
The guy and I texted back and forth a bit. He said he has been sick.
I know you guys are so lucky in Calfornia. It is starting to get cold here. This gloomy weather affects a lot of people.
|Thu, 10-04-2012 - 7:49pm
So jealoujs of So. Cal. weather. I live near Boston & it has been raining all week--it's so hard to get up in the morning. We're finally supposed to catch a break tomorrow before more rain on the weekend.
I have to join in w/ misslynn and say that my job - actually my boss is making me nuts. I have been there 15 yrs and I liked it cause he never was that interested in work and just left me alone--now all of sudden he is interested and suddenly knows everything. I am not paid well enough to deal with that stress--I have started looking for a job but it's hard to find something.
|Thu, 10-04-2012 - 8:18pm
I have lived many places in the US. From my experience, if you are happy inside, you can be happy anywhere. If you are not, you will be depressed wherever you find yourself.
|Thu, 10-04-2012 - 8:23pm
I don't like sucking up to people. It's not in my nature. I detest it, despise it. In the classroom environment, at times I was well-liked by the teacher. Not b/c I sucked up to him/her but rather because I showed interest in the subject. In the workplace, I can say I have almost never been anyone's favorite. The best I can do is to be well-liked, again as a result of interest and hard work, not because I go to happy hour with the boss. At times, in the past, the best I could do was not to be singled out as a scapegoat of the group.
A supervisor who shows blantant favortism never wins my respect. We're all human and can't help feeling more drawn to certain people over others. However, a good leader would never show blantant, over the top liking for anyone. I'm pretty smart and can see through all these things.
Your boss seems like the immature, unsophisticated managing type.

Your body weight can fluctuate +/- 3% depending on a variety of factors such as:
- Muscle swelling (with water/inflammation) from a really vigorous workout
- Hydration status
- How much food is in your gastrointestinal tract
I can gain 8 pounds in a couple of hours with a good workout followed by hydration and a big meal.
That's why you should weigh yourself every morning before you eat or drink anything to get the least fluctuation (there will still be some).

my body isnt hating me from the lack of calories, i think it hates me from the fish eggs and turkey burger ive been feeding itfletcherfam said:@fishlessman, sometimes if you are not eating enough calories your body hates you and either doesn't loose any weight or gains slightly, though I agree with everyone else that 5 pounds in a week is a bit much.
With my kettlebell workouts that I have been doing lately I noticed that I gained two pounds in a week. Though my body felt thinner I weighed more.
should have waited a week til after the comp weigh in if thats the caseThe Cen-Tex Smoker said:It's water. Very common when you start lifting. Your muscles need to water as part of the process to repair themselves. It will all balance out in a week or 2. Happens to me every time for a few weeks.

Angels rehabbing slugger Kendrys Morales cleared another hurdle during his workout this morning.
Morales ran the bases -- wearing cleats, hitting the bases and cutting -- without any issues. He will repeat that in another workout or two but could then be cleared to see game action for the first time since fracturing his ankle on May 29, 2010.
"If there's no setbacks, he looks like he could be seeing action middle of next week," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said Sunday morning. "It's going to be a matter of trying to get his legs used to running which is different on spikes and dirt than it is on a treadmill. There will be some stiffness he needs to work out. But if he repeats this a couple times ... we're looking at a window toward the middle, latter part of this week to get him started."
That first exposure to game action could come on the minor-league side. Minor-league camp games begin on Thursday and the Angels could more closely regulate Morales' running in those games than in Cactus League games.
"The fact that his ankle feels good, the fact that he ran the bases is definitely important," Scioscia said. "There's still a ways to go to see where he's going to be."

I have a 2010 Subaru Impreza 2.5i premium 5 door, 5 speed with 8k mls on it. The car runs well and does not have any check engine lights on but there is a slight intermittent knock when switching gears and staring off in first. I was told by my Subaru service manager that the car only needs 87 octane and that I can experience occasional knock and that it is normal. I have been driving manuals for 25 years (both foreign and domestic) and never had this happen. Is this an issue I should push with the dealer and will it eventually destroy my engine? I was hoping to get at least 200k mls out of this car.

Hankering for one of those famous Dressel's cakes
Here's a recipe developed for the home baker

Dressel's cake (Bill Hogan/Chicago Tribune; styling by Lisa Schumacher)
—Donna Heimbecker, Lombard, Ill.
A: At long last, there is a recipe to share for Dressel's legendary chocolate fudge whipped cream cake. Monica Kass Rogers, the Evanston-based food writer, has spent many months and made many versions of the recipe to get as close as possible the cake you remember. I, myself, never tasted a Dressel's cake but the adaptation we made in the test kitchen was extraordinary. It was so delicious one of the more disciplined editors, who rarely eats more than a few bites of cake, asked for a second slice.
Rogers notes on her website that the Dressel's cake was "a production cake—no home baker can perfectly emulate Dressel's techniques." But she worked with members of the Dressel family to come up with a version for the home cook.
Rogers has posted her recipe for Dressel's chocolate fudge whipped cream cake on her Web site, Lost Recipes Found (lostrecipesfound.com). Additionally, she is offering on the Web site a video of how to make the cake featuring Heidi Hedeker, bakery and pastry chef instructor at Chicago's Kendall College, and a mini-documentary about Dressel's bakery, featuring members of the family. Check Rogers' Web site regularly for more lost recipes found.
Dressel's chocolate fudge whipped cream cake
Prep: 2 hours Cook: 35-40 minutes Makes: 12-16 servings
Rogers prefers to use Hershey's Special Dark cocoa powder in the cake and heavy cream from Kilgus Farmstead, a Fairbury, Ill.-based dairy, for the whipped cream. The whipped cream calls for agar agar to stabilize it. You can use a little gelatin, or skip it.
2 cups sugar
3 eggs
1 1/4 cups oil
4 teaspoons vanilla
1 1/3 cups boiling water
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/3 cups cake flour

Company History
When Discount Siding Supply was founded in 1986, it had one 2-man crew and was operated out of a residential garage. After expanding several times to larger facilities, Discount Siding Supply, L.P., is now located at 2706 Plaza Ave. in Hays, Kansas, and has 11 applicators covering all of Western and Central Kansas.
Discount Siding Supply L.P., has set itself apart in the market place by refusing to use sales gimmicks, instead offering low discount prices every day on quality products both installed and sold over the counter. Besides ranking as one of the most economical companies in the market, Discount Siding has little turnover among its installation crews. This is primarily credited to allowing the applicators to become limited partners in the company which results in continuity of quality workmanship and increased pride in the finished project.
Our philosophy is that all siding looks the same driving 30 mph down the road. It's when you slow down and take a closer look that you can tell the difference in the trim and detail work between an average job and a superior "Discount Siding" job. We don't have sales because we offer discount prices every day. We believe that if you offer quality workmanship and quality products at reasonable prices, everything else takes care of itself.

During my ultrasound when the tech told me she was almost certain it was a boy, my ex said well it could still be wrong. Who says that to someone who is doing their job. Ugh.

A study by the University of California, Davis found women are "a conspicuous minority" in the Golden State's boardrooms and corner offices.
Men still occupy about nine out of every 10 of the highest paying management jobs and board seats, said the study, put together by UC Davis' graduate school of management.
Steven Currall, the school's dean, said "for a state that considers itself a hip, progressive trendsetter, California looks like anything but that."
Women may have become a force in other professions, but they remain a conspicuous minority in the board rooms and executive suites of California's 400 largest public companies, according to the sixth annual UC Davis Study of California Women Business Leaders.
A study by the University of California, Davis, found women are "a conspicuous minority" in the Golden State's boardrooms and corner offices. Only 16 out of the 400 biggest public companies has a woman CEO. Steven Currall, the school's dean, said "for a state that considers itself a hip, progressive trendsetter, California looks like anything but that."
Comstock's article on selling to big chain stores: Assistant Professor Olivier Rubel says when products from small businesses and entrepreneurs are picked up by major chain stores, it can be "both a blessing and a curse." It can lead to greater exposure and, potentially, new markets. Selling to large retailers is proof that these small businesses are selling competitive products and able to manage larger orders. But these deals aren't without risk, he says.
Women hold fewer than 10% of all top executive and board of directors positions within California's 400 largest companies, according to a study released by UC Davis. The low female representation statewide is somewhat surprising for California, often viewed as a progressive trend setter. The data on the entire list of companies, featuring brands including Hewlett Packard Co. and Jack in the Box Inc., were distilled from public reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
It's lonely for California women at the top, with a dearth of fellow females on the boards and in the executive suites of high-profile companies. Women hold only 9.5 percent of board seats and the highest-paid executive positions at the 400 largest publicly held corporations in California, a new University of California Davis study has found.
Orange County companies have the lowest female representation on their boards of directors and among their highest paid executives, according to a survey released today by UC Davis. The 6th annual survey looks at the 400 largest public companies headquartered in California, of which 48 are in Orange County. Statewide fewer than 1 in 10 directors/top-paid executives are women.
Researchers at UC Davis today released a study looking at gender diversity among the state's 400 largest public companies. They found that men still hold roughly nine out of every 10 of the highest-paid management and board positions.

Your cart is empty!
Dr. Bronner's Baby-Mild Pure Castile Soap is a great cleanser for infants, children and those with sensitive skin. It's unscented and made with organic oils including coconut, olive, hemp and jojoba oils to gently cleanse skin. Certified Fair Trade ingredients.
Supermild Castile has outstanding water softening and cleansing powers, preferable to harsh soap & defattening synthetics. It does not cut dirt, but dissolves it. It is the mildest, most pleasant soap you have ever used.
Soap is made by saponifying a fat or oil with a strong alkali. A fat or oil is a triglyceride, which means that three fatty acids of various carbon lengths are attached to a glycerine backbone. The strong alkali is either sodium (for bars) or potassium (for liquids) hydroxide. The saponification process is a simple one-step reaction with no waste generated: the glycerine is split off from the fatty acids, and the fatty acids combine with the sodium or potassium to form soap, while the hydroxide forms water. The result is soap, glycerin and water (no alkali remains).
Dr. Bronner's ALOE VERA BABY-MILD Pure-Castile Soap is formulated to be a mild smooth soap for use on newborns (but still make sure to keep it out of the eyes). Because the Baby-Mild contains no essential oils, imaginative grown-up babies can add their own favorites to craft personally unique bathing spaces (the Rosemary Extract is effective as an anti-oxidant in our soap at 0.005%, so contributes absolutely no scent).
No detergents. 100% Vegan. Made with organic oil. Health is our greatest wealth. Dilute: Enjoy 1 soap for 18 different uses! 100% Vegetarian super milk castile soap has outstanding wafer softening and cleansing powers. Preferable to harsh soap and defattening synthetics. It does not cut dirt, but dissolves it. It is the mildest, most pleasant soap you have ever used. No foaming agents. Not animal tested. Oregon Tilth certified organic.
Water, Saponified Organic Coconut & Organic Olive Oils (w/ Retained Glycerin), Organic Hemp Oil, Organic Jojoba Oil, Citric Acid, Vitamin E.
For everyday bodywashing: Get wet and pour soap full-strength onto hands-washcloth-loofah. Lather up, scrub down, rinse off, and tingle fresh & clean! Use Dr. Bronner's for shaving, shampooing, massaging, brushing teeth, baths, dispensers, uniforms, diapers, babies, the beach, dentures, deodorant, aftershave, silk, wool, pets, car, hands, and feet.
To simplify & enjoy life more, dilute 1/2 ounce or 2 squirts of this pure castile soap with 2 gallons (or sinkfull) of hot water, then towel massage or use as a facial pack. Wring towel out and fingertip massage your hair & scalp. Enjoy the creamy emollient lather!
Keep Out of Eyes. If Cap Clogs, Poke It. Clear Only: Do Not Squeeze Bottle and Shoot Out Soap. Soap Can Glog and Spurt with Pump Dispensers. Flush Eyes Well with Water for 15 Minutes. Consult a Physician if Irritation Persists.

North West Cotton Towns Learning Journey Step 2
We return to Manchester now on the Ashton Canal. The canal was originally proposed as "The Manchester, Ashton-under-Lyne and Oldham Canal", and when completed in 1796, ran from Whitelands Basin, Ashton, through 18 locks, running downhill and westwards for seven miles to a large basin behind London Road railway station, Manchester.
We now travel six miles to Oldham, the most productive cotton town in the world, taking a horse-drawn tram car from Piccadilly along Oldham Road, passing through New Cross and industrious Ancoats. We change cars at Newton Heath, climbing through Failsworth and Hollinwood into Oldham, 700 feet above sea level. The landscape is covered with mills and weaving sheds. Oldham produced 11.4 million of the world's 87 million spindles of cotton in 1890; its surrounding towns also important cotton centres: Chadderton has over 50 spinning mills; Crompton (and Shaw) has some 30 mills; Lees lost its spa town status in the shadow of its 11 mills; Royton boasts the first cotton spinning mill in Lancashire, Thorpe Mill, built in 1764 (note: after Mortimer's time, Royton's Elk Mill became the last UK cotton spinning mill to be built, in 1928). Even rural Saddleworth, an ancient wool town mentioned in the Domesday Book, has several cotton mills.
We head six miles north to Rochdale, on a new-fangled steam driven tram car, a long, tall vehicle with a covered sitting space on the roof, which has become a distinct feature of locomotion on the roads connecting the manufacturing towns. We descend into the Roche valley, where lies Rochdale, population 71,000. Rochdale's mills occupy high and low ground, the first built in 1795. A network of streets in places hints at an older and quainter place. Rochdale was formerly a wool town, specialising in baizes, flannels, kerseys, coatings and cloth, all of which were widely exported: as elsewhere, cotton now dominates. Rochdale's spinning mills produce 1.7 million spindles annually, and there is much weaving done on the town's 23,000 looms. Local collieries provide fuel for both cotton and textile machinery manufacture. The towns around Rochdale: Heywood, Middleton, Littleborough, Wardle and Milnrow all have a strong cotton connection.

Boquete Panama, traffic in town. Boquete is a small town on the Caldera River, in the green mountain highlands of Panama, in western-most Chiriquí Province, about 60 km. from the border with Costa Rica. Because of its altitude, some 1,200 metres above sea level, its climate is cooler than that of the lowlands. Its scenic location, temperature, and natural environment make it extremely popular with Panamanians, and attracts tourists from all over the world.
Location: Boquete, Panama

OverDrive now has a fresh new face for e-books and e-audiobooks. The upgrade, which OverDrive is calling Next Generation, includes a cosmetic redesign of the interface as well as search and navigation improvements such as "One-Step Checkout" and "OverDrive Read" (for browser-based eBooks).
OverDrive's new features and layout reduce the number of steps to find, borrow and enjoy an e-book or e-audiobook on most major devices including Android, iPad and Nook. New "responsive design" allows the mobile and desktop experience to be the same—optimized for any screen size regardless of the user's device.
Interestingly, the re-design also includes a format choice called "OverDrive Read" which is their new browser-based eBook reading option. This option does not change the way the existing services work but provides additional functionality. You will see 'READ' as another choice for format (such as epub or pdf) when available on a title. Using the Read format requires a device or computer with a modern web browser (like Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari).
So far, I'm enjoying the clean layout and attractive visuals. I like the banner at the top that lists the various categories so I can easily navigate to my favourite genres (biography) or find titles I can share with my kids. And, once I've selected a category, I like the highly visible " Available Now" button so I can filter my results to items I can check out immediately.
I think I'm starting to find my way around! If you need any help finding your way around, watch this video on OverDrive's Next Generation, or talk to staff at your local branch, use the Info Chat service on our homepage, or call us at 403-260-2600.
Dedicated and long-time Calgary Public Library volunteers, Diane Valcourt (left) and Mary Mooney, have been bringing the gift of books and reading to the residents of Southwood Care Centre every week for over 20 years!
Libraries in Residence is a unique program that brings large quantities of library books into senior care centers across the city to provide access to seniors who may not normally be able to visit the library. Every week at Southwood Care Centre, Mary or Diane wheel a cart of large print books around from resident to resident, distributing books and visiting with seniors along the way. Mary's favourite part of volunteering with the program is "the pleasure of visiting and discussing books with so many varied people. The residents are genuinely appreciative and many don't have much pleasure in their lives".
It's obvious that Diane and Mary care a lot about the program and the residents it serves, taking the time to ensure each resident who would like a visit and a library book (or many!), receive one of each every week. They both believe it feels good to help others especially those who may not have the mobility needed to go outside and do the things they used to do. The time and care that Mary and Diane contribute are much appreciated not only by the residents and staff at Southwood Care, but also the Calgary Public Library who is proud to have such dedicated, long term volunteers!
Your Calgary Public Library card allows you to access free, self-paced MS Office courses. Here's how:
Complete these courses at the Calgary Public Library branch of your choice, or from the comfort of your couch or kitchen table. If you still need assistance, remember you can access free computer programs and one-on-one volunteers at various library branches throughout the city. Call 260-2600 for more information!
Liam (center), and his younger twin brothers, Harris and Owen, have been participants in the Read With Me program at Calgary Public Library for three years. They work with their volunteers, Brita Wahl, Senthil Gnanasambandam and Ruth Halford, respectively, for an hour each week at a Library branch to develop their literacy skills.
Ruth and Owen have been a pair since November 2009. The boys' father, Bryan, states, 'Owen loves Ruth. She's amazing. She makes it fun for him to learn and he always comes back in a good mood after their sessions.' Owen confirms this: 'It's fun working with Ruth and really educating. Sometimes, we do games and hard mazes and stuff like that. When we have to read, she picks books that I like and that are funny.'
Brita and Liam have worked together since September 2010. In Liam's words, 'It's been good…in lots of ways. We do reading and she'll play games with me. She's really nice and she helps me with the words and stuff.' Bryan adds, 'Brita has a calm, peaceful personality, which is exactly what Liam needs, especially in his learning. She keeps him engaged and focused.'
Senthil and Harris began their match in January 2012. Bryan shared that since starting work with Senthil, Harris now loves reading and does so independently at home daily. Harris confers, 'Senthil is really good. I really like him a lot. He really helps me a lot. I've improved my reading since I started working with him and now I'm figuring-out more hard words. He's really nice and lets me pick books I like.'
All three volunteers feel the boys are benefiting from their help in the program and enjoy their sessions together. Brita says she loves working with Liam and 'It's been fun getting to learn something new each session…I've learned a lot about sharks, scorpions and Star Wars'.
Bryan is unequivocal about the help provided to his children by the volunteers: 'We are so happy and amazed by the program and so appreciative of all the folks who volunteer.'
Thank you, Ruth, Brita, and Senthil for all your efforts and sharing your love of literacy with these children!

About Our Fine Art Photography
Photographs generally take 3 - 5 business days to produce because they are printed on a per order basis. Framing will add an additional 2 days. Overall, photos ship in 3 - 7 business days.

Our fine art giclee prints are individually created on-demand to meet the highest standards of exhibition-quality reproduction.
Advanced technology, archival inks and premium semi-matte photo paper combine to provide vivid colors and rich black-and-whites that are faithful to the original image. Every print has a minimum of a half-inch border to accommodate framing.

EAU CLAIRE — U.S. News & World Report magazine has again ranked the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire in its top tier of universities in the Midwest, and UW-Eau Claire also was recognized as having one of the best undergraduate research programs in the country.
This year's rankings put UW-Eau Claire at No. 3 among regional public universities in the Midwest, a region that includes schools in 12 states stretching from the Dakotas to the West, Missouri to the South and Ohio to the East.
"These quantitatively measured rankings continue to be very competitive, so we are proud to be included among the top schools in the Midwest for the ninth consecutive year," Chancellor Donald Mash said. "It speaks well of our faculty, staff, students and alumni."
The magazine also included UW-Eau Claire in its "Programs to look for" section, which highlights schools with outstanding examples of academic programs that lead to student success. UW-Eau Claire is one of 39 colleges and universities — private and public — of all sizes from throughout the country included in the magazine's "Undergraduate Research Creative Projects" category.
"We've offered our undergraduate students phenomenal research opportunities for years, working hand in hand with faculty mentors, so it's very satisfying to see UW-Eau Claire — a mid-size public regional university — recognized along with Yale, Princeton, Stanford and other premier institutions that make undergraduate research a priority," Mash said.
This is only the second year that U.S. News published its "Programs to look for" section, which includes eight types of programs that have been shown to enhance learning. In addition to undergraduate research, categories include first-year experiences, internships, senior capstones, learning communities, study abroad, service-learning and writing in the disciplines.
"Those eight programs mirror the very things that UW-Eau Claire regularly points to when we're describing what sets us apart from other universities," Mash said. "For example, in addition to our outstanding undergraduate research opportunities, we also have an excellent study abroad program and an innovative service-learning program."
UW-Eau Claire and UW-Madison are the only two UW System schools included in the eight categories within the "Programs to look for" section. College presidents, chief academic officers and deans of students from colleges and universities throughout the country could nominate up to 10 institutions with stellar examples of programs in each of the eight categories. Colleges and universities mentioned most often were then listed in alphabetical order in the "Programs to look for" section.
For its 2004 best colleges rankings, U.S. News & World Report places UW-Eau Claire 26th among all regional universities (public and private) in the top tier of what is known as the "Best Universities-Master's" category. Schools included in this category provide a full range of undergraduate- and master's-level programs and typically draw students mostly from the state and surrounding states.
The U.S. News & World Report magazine's rankings are based on analyzing thousands of points of data collected on more than 1,400 accredited four-year colleges. In the regional rankings, 573 universities-master's were ranked within four geographic areas (North, South, Midwest and West). The magazine compares factors such as academic reputation, faculty-student ratio, class sizes, graduation and freshman retention rates, student selectivity and alumni giving.
As in past years, UW-Eau Claire did well in the academic reputation category, a ranking determined by leaders at colleges and universities throughout the Midwest. UW-Eau Claire's small class sizes, commitment to hiring full-time faculty, graduation and freshman retention rates, and alumni giving also were among the university's strengths as identified by the magazine.
"UW-Eau Claire's reputation for excellence is important to students and graduates because it helps them secure challenging jobs in a competitive job market and it helps them gain entry to outstanding graduate schools," Mash said. "Being consistently included in U.S. News' prestigious top-tier is just one of many indicators of our university's quality work and strong reputation. Our faculty, staff and students regularly receive national awards, honors and grants, all of which are indictors of the university's reputation for excellence."
This year UW-Eau Claire shares the No. 3 spot among public regional universities with UW-La Crosse and Washburn University of Kansas. UW-Stevens Point is ranked No. 4. Truman State of Missouri and University of Northern Iowa were ranked No. 1 and No. 2, respectively.
"It's incredible to see three UW System schools at the top of this impressive list," Mash said. "This is one more indicator that the UW System is one of the best higher education systems in the country."
All 2004 U.S. News & World Report college rankings will be included in its college guidebook, "America's Best Colleges." Many of the rankings also will be included in the U.S. News & World Report magazine issue dated Sept. 1. The rankings also can be found on the U.S. News Web site, beginning Friday, Aug. 22.

Club Sandwich Puffs - Football Friday
These little sandwich puffs are one of our favorite football snacks. They are always a hit at our tailgate parties. They are also good for a quick lunch or dinner during the week. Feel free to mix up the meats and cheeses. I've made ham and swiss, roast beef and jalapeno jack and even turkey and American. The possibilities are endless. They taste fantastic, and are a great way to use up leftover luncheon meat. They are also super easy to make (a big plus in my book). I suggest doubling the recipe below if you are making these for a crowd. I've made these several times and I never have any leftovers.
Club Sandwich Puffs
(Printable Recipe)
1 oz deli ham, chopped
1 oz deli turkey, chopped
1 oz deli roast beef, chopped
2 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1 egg
1 Tbsp honey mustard dressing
1 (8 ounce) package refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a small bowl combine finely chopped ham, turkey, roast beef, bacon, onion powder, cheese, egg, and mustard. Mix well.
Lightly spray a mini muffin pan with non stick cooking spray.
Unroll crescent rolls and press dough into one large rectangle. Cut rectangle into 24 squares. Press dough squares into muffin cups and shape up around the edges.
Fill each muffin cup with some of the meat mixture. Bake 13-15 minutes or until lightly browned.

Action Line: Extended-Service Claim
May 26, 2011 by Good Sam · 3 Comments
This spring, the diesel engine on my 2003 Coachmen motorhome needed a new turbocharger. I took it to Aptico, a Cummins dealer in Lindenhurst, New York, where the work was done. I submitted a claim to Interstate National Dealer Services under my policy for the amount of $4,754.13. I was told that they would pay only $3,220.10. I am hoping that you will be able to help me recover the full amount minus my $50 deductible.
John P. Walsh
Vendor Response:
I am in receipt of your letter concerning the above-mentioned Vehicle Service Contract (VSC). Upon review of the claim, Mr. Walsh was charged $2,794.60 for a turbocharger in which the manufacturer's suggested retail price was verified to be $2,235.10. Our VSC does not cover markup of parts, therefore Mr. Walsh was responsible for the price difference.
Pertaining to the invoice, I noticed several parts that were not requested during the claims submission. These items total $124.23. I also noticed that the hourly labor rate authorized was less than the repair facility's current hourly rate, a difference of $423.00. The remainder of the difference is in sales tax from which we are exempt in the state of New York.
In light of these circumstances, we are willing to reimburse the customer in the amount of $547.23, noted above.
David Harding, Jr. Claims Auditor
Dear Action Line,
Thank you for your assistance. It was a long process, but I finally got a check from Interstate last week for $547.23. I really appreciate your help in this matter.

Future of the Facelift
I'm a little erked they list thread lifts as the first "cutting edge" technique (per the last thread, I would avoid those!)
Definitely not cutting edge ... perhaps this is one reason why the popularity of this procedure has decreased. ;)

With multiple locations and a growing number of clients, AGI recognized the need to implement a document management process, enabling it to quickly and easily share information between offices while effectively managing each office's internal documents.
Andover Public School district has a five-member School Board which oversees the budget, policy and legal matters for the school district. Committee members are often inundated with paper documents. Committee member, Christpher Smith soon recognized the current process of disseminating and retaining paper documents could be vastly improved.
Bridgepointe recently began using the Fujitsu ScanSnap™ scanning solution to help digitize its telecommunications paper trail and improve the storage and retrieval of customer contracts. Prior to using the Fujitsu ScanSnap solution, Bridgepointe used a combination of traditional fax and efax solutions with a manual filing system to communicate and store customer contracts and purchase orders.
Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems have demonstrated their ability to improve the quality of patient care and safety. Healthcare institutions, both small and large, that have implemented an EHR system have also experienced the financial benefits that come along with it. Additionally, recent developments, including President Bush's public support for a National Health Information Infrastructure, are supporting a shift by medical groups towards the widespread use of information technology to improve care and reduce costs. It's no wonder that more and more organizations are looking to Electronic Health Records to automate and streamline the clinician's workflow.
Insurance agents are constantly operating in a paper-intensive environment that requires them to collect, protect and archive numerous documents that are imperative to processing claims. For Couri Insurance in Waukesha, Wisconsin they were not left out of this constant paper battle.
Palm Beach Community College (PBCC) serves approximately 47,000 students across four campuses located within the Florida hurricane zone. Due to their location, disaster recovery played a big part—as did the need for space and improved efficiency—in their search for an enterprise content management (ECM) system.
With massive amounts of paper records and limited storage space, Dr. Ichimura was intrigued by the concept of a digitally archived and operated office -- one that reduced paper records while integrating digital radiographs and electronic file transfers such as sending insurance claims to be processed.
The Jackson County Intermediate School District (JCISD) is an educational service agency chartered by the State of Michigan to work with local public school districts and charter schools. Their mission is to help improve student success throughout the central Michigan county, which is situated about 40 miles west of Ann Arbor.

The office of the Milwaukee County Register of Deeds oversees all of the real estate-related documents that affect titles to approximately 300,000 parcels of land located in Milwaukee County. In addition, the county register is responsible for maintaining formal records from corporation papers and military discharges to financing statements and certified copies of birth, death and marriage records. Managing these vital documents for individuals and businesses requires a document management solution capable of scaling across the entire organization and allows ready-access to, and protection for all of the documents within the county register's files.
Morgan Street Document Systems, the premier provider of personalized, web-based, document management services, helps individuals and their advisors organize, share and protect financial, legal, estate, insurance and legacy documents. Headquartered in Chicago, IL, with offices spanning over the east, west, and mid-west regions, Morgan Street recognized that the amount of paper-based information that individuals manage on an onoing basis, continues to increase by overwhelming amounts. In fact, most individuals have thousands of pages of critical documents that require preservation and protection, but lack an organizational system capable of handling the load.
Business Technology Career Opportunities (BTCO) got its start by providing white-collar employment for people with disabilities. Beginning with a large and successful contract with the U.S. Department of Commerce for the 2000 Census, BTCO built a thriving business that today focuses on imaging and precise-tolerance plot printing. The company's clients include a broad range of federal, municipal and commercial customers, including the U.S. Air Force and government agencies in its home state of Kansas.
Doctors need all the critical information they can obtain when treating a patient, but too often data is trapped in filing cabinets and disparate systems that can't be easily accessed when needed the most. Pediatric Associates of Richmond, Inc. (PAR), with thirteen doctors, four nurse practitioners, two office locations and thousands upon thousands of documents, was looking for an Electronic Health Records (EHR) management solution for their pediatric practice that would do just that – help to improve the quality of patient care and safety.
Recognizing that improved document management was one way that it could save time and money, Rabuck turned to the Fujitsu ScanSnap S510M Mac compatible scanner.
In real estate, the difference between closing a deal and losing a sale can be a matter of minutes. Driven heavily by lending regulations, real estate agents, mortgage brokers and buying agents are constantly operating in a paper-intensive environment that requires them to collect, protect and archive numerous documents that are imperative to the sale of a home or commercial building. Prompt action and seamless operation is a pre-requisite to success in the real estate business and technology is beginning to play a pivotal role in how agents close deals and make sales.
"Mayhem." That's how Patrick Albrecht sums up his typical workday—but he says it in the spirit of joie de vivre, not drudgery. Albrecht is a chef and co-owner (along with his father, chef Paul Albrecht) of the Great Food Group, the parent company of two Atlanta-based restaurants.
Scofield Timber was founded almost 40 years ago out of the realization that timber harvesting techniques available at the time possessed many drawbacks – not well suited for sensitive properties and often left land diminished of its value. As one of the first companies in the Atlanta metropolitan area to challenge the traditional methods of timber harvesting, Scofield quickly grew as a leader helping to open up new markets for landowners, while also preserving the land value. Today, the company is one of the largest timber dealers in the Southeast and has evolved into a full-service timber enterprise, harvesting more than 1 million individually selected trees every year.

The organization's goal is to create a sustainable system for growing healthy food and delivering it to residents of Boston and surrounding communities through farmers' markets, food relief programs, and community organizations. It also works to foster the leadership potential of hundreds of the youths while helping people—both the volunteer workers and food recipients—feel a stronger connection to the land.
In 1977, the Hospice of the Florida Suncoast was born out of the vision of an exceptional group of people who realized the value of hospice care and wanted it for their families and neighbors. Today, the Hospice is the nation's largest not-for-profit, community-based provider of hospice and palliative care. Located in Clearwater, FL with over 1,500 employees, their vision and mission still remains the cornerstone of their work and organizational soul: help each person in their community find quality of life. Toward that goal, they are constantly adding new programs, advancing hospice practices and spearheading internal technology implementations to meet the changing needs of their community. In fact in 1997, The Hospice began the development of a software product called Suncoast Solutions that serves as the electronic health record for Hospice patients. One in four hospice patients across the country receive care by a program using Suncoast Solutions.
One of UC Berkley's facility members, Dr. Joonhong Ahn, a professor of nuclear engineering, was overwhelmed with the mounds of paper accumulating in his office.

Each new school year Waterford enrolls close to 1,500 new students. Like most school districts throughout the United States, historically, this process was manual, paper intensive and time consuming. Before implementing the automated enrollment system, Waterford handled its entire enrollment on-site at each school building the child was enrolling in. Waterford was in need of a solution that would decrease staff headaches and streamline the process while giving the time and money back to the children.
In addition to the educational resources, Wolfgram Memorial Library also contains Widener University's archives, which include the university's publications and official records, as well as the course catalogs dating back to 1856, student newspapers and literary magazines from 1877, yearbooks from 1900, memorabilia such as cadet uniforms and athletic trophies and various other clippings, photographs, and biographical information about the school athletics, alumni, faculty and the Widener and Hyatt families. Open to Widener students and the public, this collection captures and preserves the rich history of the university as well as significant pieces of the history of Delaware County. However, the library's efforts to make them accessible to the masses were stinted by their limited ability to document and index this considerable amount of information; a work intensive process for the only 10 faculty librarians and 30 staff who help to keep the library open, and allow access to all its valuable resources, on an average of 95.5 hours per week.
Founded in 1980, San Francisco-based law firm, Wild, Carey and Fife is a small, private, full-service litigation law firm that serves a broad range of clients including, Professional Liability Law, Insurance Coverage Law, Business Litigation, Personal Injury Law, Construction Litigation and Transportation.

He Said, She Moaned: The Dreaded Dialogue Tags
But you know what? I don't think readers care. As writers it's drilled into us to avoid adverbs, limit adjectives, simplify our dialogue tags. Maybe editors care, or maybe they don't.
A page at random from a recent mega-selling YA phenom:
"I couldn't sleep," I confessed..."Neither could I," he teased..."Not a chance," he chuckled..."You're right," he decided..."Porridge," chirped a voice from the mist...
From another NYTimes bestseller, a random page contains:
"Not from a tree," the spy hissed..."It's the only place," he objected..."They dug a tunnel," he spat..."I can't get inside," he whined.
Of course, toss the kind of money at me these books received and I'll pen florid attributions till the cows come home. Never mind which cows. Does anyone else cringe at these things?
4 comments:
I totally agree with your order of preference, Suzanne. The only time I want to read the word 'moaned' is if there's no dialogue at all.ReplyDelete
But I also agree that most readers probably won't notice them (unless they're rampant - the tags, that is; not the readers). Once you're trained to look for them, though, they really sound atrocious.
I don't put in dialogue tags either. I try to get things across with the action of the characters, usually.ReplyDelete
As a reader, if it's not overdone, I'm fine with it. But if every bit of dialogue has a tag, it pulls me out of the story. Then it's a tug-o-war between whether the story is compelling enough to overcome the distraction of too many tags.
I used dialogue tags rarely, I prefer action ones. But I think you're right, the average reader doesn't care. Other author/readers are much more likely too!ReplyDelete
I agree with you, I don't think the readers care. I avoid them and try to use beats instead of tags if I have to use anything at all, but I see them in published books all the time.ReplyDelete

IIJ director presents at forum in Saudi Arabia
by Lindsay Boyle
In early December, professor Yusuf Kalyango, director of the Institute for International Journalism, attended an annual forum of media and communications research in Saudi Arabia.
The sixth annual forum, which focused on 'New Media: Theoretical and Practical Challenges,' was organized by the Saudi Association for Media and Communication (SAMC) from Dec. 1- Dec. 4 at Riyadh Palace Hotel in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. SAMC is based at the King Saud University, one of three major national universities in Saudi Arabia.
The SAMC is a pioneering academic association in media and communication that works within Saudi Arabia and in other countries in the Middle East, Asia and northern Africa. The association, in conjunction with King Saud University, annually holds training sessions, offers media and communication academic consultations, and cooperates with media organizations to develop the professional practice for the Saudi journalism and communication workforce.
Some other topics discussed during the forum included the role of Twitter on national identities and cultures, and Facebook use in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt and the United States.

You might have heard about people before who vanished – maybe you've seen a news report about a woman who had her identity stolen, or watched a TV special about someone who faked a death or even their entire identity in order to escape debts, their past, or a troubled relationship.
Each year, a countless number of people attempt to alter their identity… legally or illegally. Not surprisingly, the history of altering one's id can be traced back hundreds of years. To "disappear" was especially common before the digital age, when it was harder to trace people across state lines or country lines. It was not unheard of for someone to simply leave their "old" life and begin a new one across the country, never to be heard from again.
Today, id change is increasingly linked to our frequent use of digital technology. It's become much harder for people to get their new identity the illegal way—simply put, this means without going through the legal government process required to really change your own identity. There are an almost endless number of records related to someone's identity in today's modern world. Addresses, social security numbers, bank accounts, and even things like emails can be easily traced to someone's identity.
Why are you thinking about a new identity? Continue reading

MONDAY, Oct. 29 (HealthDay News) -- A new study allays concerns that early-stage breast cancer patients who receive radiation treatment might have a long-term increased risk for heart problems.
The study included 50 stage 1 and stage 2 breast cancer patients who underwent either breast-conservation therapy using radiation (26 patients) or modified radical mastectomy (24 patients). Mastectomy is a type of surgery that involves removing the breast.
More than 25 years after treatment, both groups had similar levels of heart function and rates of heart problems. For example, the rate of heart attack within 10 years of breast cancer diagnosis and treatment was 5.1 percent for breast-conservation patients and 5.7 percent for mastectomy patients.
The study was scheduled for presentation Monday at the annual meeting of the American Society for Radiation Oncology in Boston.
"Over the past two decades, radiation therapy has become more precise and safer with modern techniques," lead author Dr. Charles Simone II, a radiation oncologist at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, said in a society news release.
"We are pleased to find that early-stage breast cancer patients treated with modern radiation therapy treatment planning techniques do not have an increased risk of long-term cardiac toxicity and that breast-conservation therapy with radiation should remain a standard treatment option," he added.
The data and conclusions of research presented at medical meetings are typically considered preliminary until published in a peer-reviewed medical journal.

Still so behind on my pictures. I had to go buy a new laptop charger today because the one I has started on fire last night. It was pretty crazy stuff. No damage done but a small burn on the carpet. So, the above photos are from Christmas Day which we spent at my in-laws. Very casual. My mother-in-law made oyster stew and had shrimp cocktail.
I went with Christmas colors since my outfit wasn't very dressy. Love this chunky sweater with the sleek red heels. I'm very tempted by the similar ones I linked to above. I guess I don't really need two pair of red pumps though.
