A beautiful quote to share
by Bob Thomas
posted Nov 19 2014 9:48AM
Here's a beautiful quote I came upon:
A mature person is one who does not think only in absolutes, who is able to be objective even when deeply stirred emotionally, who has learned that there is both good and bad in all people and in all things, and who walks humbly and deals charitably with the circumstances of life, knowing that in this world no one is all-knowing and therefore all of us need both love and charity.
-Eleanor Roosevelt

Secret to Life
by Bob Thomas
posted Oct 29 2014 3:43PM
A couple of month ago, I met an eight (80) year old man at a local restaurant. We struck up a conversation during which time he told me the secret to life. He said, "Life is not difficult, we (humans) make it difficult. There are three things that comprise the secret of life. The first is LOVE, love someone and be loved by someone, the second is HELP, help someone and someone will help you and third, ENJOY, find something that you enjoy, it doesn't have to be the same thing someone else enjoys." After thinking this over for a couple of days, it dawned on me that this elderly gentlemen was absolutely correct. I felt so blessed to have been given this tidbit of wisdom from one much older than I. One who has experienced a lot more of life than I. The following video is an example of all three of these principles. If the man in question didn't have LOVE in his heart, he wouldn't have offered HELP and it's obvious .... ENJOYment was felt by all.

Good Morning
by Bob Thomas
posted Aug 21 2014 10:38PM
What awakens you in the morning? I'm not a morning person……not now......nor ever have been. So getting up in the morning is not one of my favorite things to do. What's interesting is when I do, I usually do it without much effort. I just get up and go about doing what needs to be done. Of course, I'm complaining and grumbling every step of the way. Most of the time, I utilize a clock radio; however, usually I wake up just prior to the time the clock radio goes off. I guess you could say I have a built in clock that awakens me and the clock radio is my backup. I've always had that built in clock even though sometimes I ignore it. I also have a built in snooze alarm. The only problem is my built in snooze alarm doesn't always go off in ten minute intervals. It's more like intervals of an hour. So that's why I have the clock radio as backup. When I was a kid, my alarm clock was my mom. She would call upstairs and say, "it's time to get up baby"…………that would be the first time. The next time I'd hear……"Are you up?" My answer, of course, would be "Yes" even though I wasn't. The final call would be, "Don't make me come up there and get you out of that bed boy." Once I heard that, I'd be up and at 'em……cuz you didn't want Mrs. Thomas coming to get you out of the bed. My mom was innovative. She'd get you up with one swing of a belt, or pour some water on you or (the worst) was to just stand over you with her arms folded saying you got five seconds to get outta that bed. Ya think I wasn't up in 2 ……who da fool…not me. While in college, I had no problem getting up in the morning…….that's cuz I didn't do it. I never went to breakfast (my roommate did, so I'd tell him to bring me one of those little boxes of cereal….and he did.......at first…...till he caught on, then he'd say get yo lazy #$%! up and git it yo'self) and I made sure my classes didn't start till at least ten. Problem solved. Being in the military; however, did present a problem. Because all the military does is awaken early in the morning. So what I did was buy an expensive stereo system (while I was stationed in Germany) with a remote timer. I'd turn the volume on the stereo up loud and I kept the stereo in another room. So when the timer turned the system on at "oh dark thirty", I'd have to get up, walk to the other room to turn the volume down or the system off. Ok, but now, I'm up, so might as well keep on moving. Everybody has their own method to the madness. How do you awaken yourself in the morning? My wife sets the clock radio ahead an hour, puts the volume on rock concert level, then hits the snooze button 6 times before getting up (that's overkill) and will still be late for work. I have a friend who gets up and sticks his head in the freezer for about a minute. Another friend gets cold water from the refrigerator and pours it over his head (been doing the ice bucket challenge all his life). And still another friend's dog gets her up by licking her face (I don't know bout that.....dogs like to lick....whatever....my face cannot and will not be included in "whatever"). Here's a good one…..a friend programs her TV (the fact that she can program her TV deserves an award) and when she hears a strange man's voice coming from the living room area, she automatically gets up to investigate, usually with a snub nose 32. Say What?!? (don't think the wife & I will spend the night over there). But hey, whatever works for you. Personally, I'm glad I don't have to awaken at an early hour on a consistent basis. Usually, I'll awaken around 8am, lie there listening to the Steve Harvey Morning Show until 9am, then turn on the TV to catch NCIS or Andy Griffith or the new and finally arise around 10am, bright eyed and bushy tailed……..hey, it works for me. I hope your solution works for you.

The Generation Gap?!?

posted Jul 30 2014 4:20PM
I was getting a haircut recently and my barber was talking about how excited he was to see New Edition (group was performing in the area). His son (a sophomore in college) remarked, "Dad, you always wanna see those old school performers." His statement caught my attention because I didn't consider New Edition to be old school. So I said, "If New Edition is old school, then what are the performers I consider to be old school?"
"Like whom?"
( whom? told you he was in college)
"Well, The Whispers, Stephanie Mills, Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin,
Maze, Patti Labelle, Earth, Wind & Fire, Charlie Wilson, just to name a few."
"Oh, they're classics."
"Alright now, MY music is classic music."
"Yeah, that's a LOT older than old school."
"Why, you little……."
Last week, while doing a remote broadcast, I registered people to win two tickets to the 957 RnB Soul Music Fest, Nov 1
, at the Hampton Coliseum. I was informing them that it would feature performances from The Whispers, Stephanie Mills, Mint Condition….before I could finish, I noticed this blank look on some of their faces
(the young people
). So I asked, "you've heard of The Whispers right?"
Young uns:
How about Stephanie Mills?
Young uns:
Ummmmmm, nope.
Mint Condition?
1 Young un:
I think my Momma might know 'em.
How old are y'all?
Young uns:
20, 19, 21, 23.
Well, have y'all ever heard of Chrisette Michelle?
Young uns:
A resounding and unified….. "YES!"
Now, they're all excited and ready to register to win the tickets. Then a young woman said to me, "Have you ever heard of Chief Keef?
Ain't that the name of the Washington DC football team mascot?
"Nope, how bout Shaggy?"
"Fo'sho, he works at our sister station ….. Z104.
: "What? No sir.
(so polite … I loved it)
You ever heard of Nappy Roots?"
: "Aw your hair doesn't look that bad, just a little touch up will do."
(with a deep sigh) "You're hilarious. Maybe you've heard of 50 cent?"
"Word, I'm hip to the hop you don't stop. I know all about fiddy cent, 2 Chainz, Fat Boys, Kool Mo Dee, Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five, MC Lyte, Rapper's Delight….. how it go….hotel, motel, holiday inn…
(It was about that time, I noticed that blank look on her face again)

The Palliative Care and Symptom Management Services Program
The Palliative Care and Home Hospice Program at Northwestern is one of the pioneer programs in the country. Starting with a home hospice program in 1986 and adding a Palliative Care Consultation service in 1993, the service now sees patients across the Northwestern Medicine continuum of care. The main components of the program include:
Consultation Service The inpatient consult service consists of an attending, rotating palliative care or oncology fellows, residents, and students. We see patients throughout Northwestern Medicine. We are happy to assist in the evaluation and management of any or all of the following issues:
Palliative Care Unit The PCU team consists of an attending physician, a nurse practitioner, and sometimes a palliative care fellow and medical student. If there are beds available, the goals of care are focused on symptom management, and the transfer is deemed appropriate by the consult service or PCU team, patients can be transferred from anywhere in Feinberg or Prentice. Indications for PCU transfer include:
Call the Palliative Care Consult Team 1-312-926-0001 to discuss any patient you feel may benefit from the PCU. Northwestern Memorial Hospital Home Hospice Program The Home Hospice Program will help care for patients within Cook County, either at home or in another facility. To inquire about eligibility or to set up services for a patient, call 312-926-4600 to discuss the case with one of our nurse liaisons. Palliative Care and Hospice at Lake Forest Hospital The issues surrounding an acute or complex illness can be difficult to manage. That is why Lake Forest Hospital partners with Midwest Palliative & Hospice CareCenter to provide palliative care services that help you understand your prognosis and the care options available to you. Palliative care helps you manage the physical, emotional and spiritual challenges of an acute or complex illness. We tailor our services to your needs and provide support to loved ones who have a critical role in your health and well-being. Using a team approach, Midwest CareCenter physicians, advance practice nurses, social workers and chaplains, work with Lake Forest healthcare professionals and your personal physician to improve your quality of life before, during and after treatment. We work together to relieve and manage your symptoms, coordinate your care and identify supportive services that can help you continue to live well. Surrounding yourself with medical professionals who understand your personal goals as well as your medical needs and healthcare history offers reassurance and comfort during a difficult time. Lake Forest Hospital and Westmoreland Nursing Center work with multiple hospices to provide the services our patients and their families need, either in a hospital, nursing home or your own home. Interested in learning more about Palliative Care? We would love to have your join us for an afternoon, a day, or a week. Call Eytan Szmuilowicz, MD, or Boye Ogunseitan, MD, and we can help tailor an experience that will meet your needs. Peri-operative Services The Peri-operative Service grew out of a general internal medicine clinic in October 2003, with original members Drs. Peter Kallas and Anjali Desai, and Mary Murray, PA. The service expanded and merged with the Division in September 2008. Currently,there are 4 physicians and 1 PA who spend 100% of their time on peri-op, with two additional physicians that split time between peri-op and the other services in the Division. We anticipate further growth in this area. Patients are referred to the pre-operative outpatient clinic by primary care physicians and surgicalspecialists for evaluation of risk prior to surgery. These patients may have multiple clinic visits prior totheir procedure for medication titration and cardiac testing as necessary. The physician that saw thepatient in the clinic will then make an effort to follow the patient in the hospital after surgery. The perioperativeservices also receives new consults from the surgical services. Please contact the Director of Peri-Operative Services, Pete Kallas, MD, or Assistant Director, Anjali Desai, MD for more information. |

A breakthrough in isolating power has been developed with the extension of Analog Devices proprietary iCoupler® technology. isoPower introduces integrated, isolated power in a single package.
Controlling Radiated Emissions with isoPower Devices
Please reference the following application material for important information regarding PCB layout and construction.
iCoupler Technology with isoPower - Integrated, Isolated Power
Integrating power supply isolation with data signal isolation, until recently, has been a challenge because of the difficulty of transmitting power from the non-isolated system side to the isolated field side. In the past transferring power across an isolation barrier required a lot of area, with an expensive module or a complex discrete solution.
Analog Devices has addressed this issue by introducing isoPower - an extension of the iCoupler technology. isoPower is a complete and fully integrated isolation solution for power transfer across an isolation barrier using micro-transformers. The iCoupler technology enables both signal and power to be integrated into a single tiny surface mount package with isolation up to 5kV.
Figure 1 shows how our newly released ADuM5401 reduces board space by up to 70% and a cost reduction up to 50%.

Divinity Library
As a component of the Howard University Library System, the Divinity Library supports the teaching and research needs of the School of Divinity and the Howard University community.
The Library of the School of Divinity traces its history to the founding of Howard University. Howard was established originally for the purpose of training "colored preachers and teachers."
Originally located in Douglas Hall, the School of Religion was relocated in the 1930's to the Carnegie Building. The building allowed considerable space for growth. In 1940, Dr Benjamin E. Mays, Dean of the School of Religion, purchased a portion of the Auburn Seminary Library collection when that seminary's library merged with the Union Theological Seminary Library. This single acquisition was a significant factor in the school receiving its first accreditation.
In 1977, the School of Religion moved to 1240 Randolph Street, N.W., marking the inception of the East Campus for Howard University. Although the school had upgraded facilities, there was insufficient space at that site. The space obstacles were removed in 1987, with the relocation of the School of Divinity to its current location. The Divinity Library can now fully realize Dr Mays' vision of a library commensurate with the academic and research interests of the school.
Collection and Services
There are more than 119,00 volumes in the Divinity Library collection. The subject emphasis include biblical studies, reformed theology, church history, ethics, world religions, pastoral counseling, and urban ministries. The Library subscribes to more than 200 periodicals. Retrospective holdings are available in bound format or on microfilm. | |
The collection also includes the African Heritage Collection, audio tapes from the Howard Thurman Educational Trust; locally produced audio and video tapes of Howard University Divinity School events; and commercially produced films, filmstrips, and videos. The African Heritage Collection was established in the 1960's to document the Civil Rights era and the religious heritage and life/history of African Americans and African diaspora (African American, African Caribbean, Latin American/Hispanic etc.) The Collection includes The collection is unique within the Washington Metropolitan area and highly depended upon for study and research for the School of Divinity, the Howard University community, the Washington Theological Consortium, and for researchers and scholars of the religious experience of the African Diaspora. |

YES @bigleaguestew THE NL CENTRAL RACE IS GOOD FOR BASEBALL
Baseball July 23rd, 2009
Big League Stew currently has a poll up on their website asking if the current National League Central race is good for baseball. Thus far 345 people have answered with a whopping 89% saying that "Sure, why not?" it is good for baseball. To which I say, WELL DUH.
Look, let's come at this from the prespective that I am not a Brewers fan. Let's just say I am a mild mannered baseball fan from somewhere in Nebraska. I don't really have any allegiances because my parents hated me and raised me in Nebraska. I am too stupid to move anywhere cool because I went to school in Nebraska and only know that corn is real good for you. I do like to watch the baseball. The stars of the game are what draw me to it. Albert Pujols! Ryan Braun! Prince Fielder! Lance Berkman! Someone from the Cubs! You know what I would love to see these stars do? Make the playoffs! My enjoyment of baseball is built around my enjoyment of watching these superior athletes compete and what better way to see them than in the heat of a playoff race? Sure, they might only end up with a win total in the mid 80s but if we've learned anything over the past few years anything can happen in the playoffs. I don't care about the Cardinals or the Brewers, I care about Albert Pujols and Ryan Braun. Let me see the stars shine, that's why the Wild Card works. That's why division realignment works.
Let's look at it from the prospective of Major League Baseball and TV Networks. Playoff race=ratings. Makes sense to me.
Okay, now I am a Brewers fan. OF COURSE THIS IS A GOOD THING ARE YOU FREAKIN CRAZY?! WE HAVE THE CHANCE TO MAKE THE PLAYOFFS TWO YEARS IN A ROW!!! DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES THAT HAS HAPPENED IN OUR HISTORY?! ZERO!!!!11 NEVER BEFORE AND YOU ARE ACTING LIKE ITS A BAD THIGN?! (OKAY ONCE BUT IT DOESNT REALLY COUNT BECAUSE IT WAS THAT STRIKE YEAR, BUT STILL!!!!!) 82!!!!! WE HAVE THE CHANCE TO MAKE THE PLAYOFFS TWO YEARS IN A ROW AND DEFEAT OUR HATED RIVALS DOING IT! WOOOHOOOOOO!!!!!1 HALLADAY! HALLADAY! HALLADAY!
To Brewers fans, playing as poorly as they have and still being in the race, is great for us. But you aren't a Brewers fan 'Duk, you're a Cubs fan and you are exactly right. This IS bad for you. The last two years have hurt and I feel bad for you, I really do. You don't want your team to make the playoffs again this year because this year's team is a lot worse than last year's team and you're not sure you can handle that kind of thing again. What could be worse than that is making a late run, only to fall a game behind. Or losing a tiebreaker. That would suck. As a Cubs fan you desperately want someone to run away with this division so you don't have to worry about what might happen if they actually do this thing. And I don't blame you one bit. As for the rest of us? A tight NL Central is great.

The Best Milwaukee Brewers Blog In The World
milwaukee brewers April 19th, 2012
Miller Park Drunk is the Shepherd Express 2012 Winner for Best Sports Blog.
I got the invite in the mail to this party while I was in Miami for Wrestlemania. I read it, decided not to go and then I didn't really think about it again until yesterday when Tyler asked me if I wanted to go to the party, you know, just in case we won. Again, I decided not to go and instead we went to a Brewers game. The truth is I didn't want to go. I just had all these thoughts running through my head about it.
Do I have to bring a date? Who would that be? What? No, not her. Oh, like you've never slept over at a girl's house and been woken up by her kid. Shut up.
What if I didn't win, wouldn't that be a colossal waste of time? What if I did win? Would I have to give a speech? Would my speech get me laid by my date? Who is that going to be again? What if my speech sucked and I didn't get laid?
It just seemed like too much of a hassle for a web award, honestly. Who cares right? I don't need any validation, I'm a man! Well, today I found out that we won and I was surprised at just how happy it made me.
Look, I know in the grand scheme of things that this award doesn't really mean anything. It definitely doesn't mean that this blog is "better" than any of the other blogs out there or that I am an amazing writer. (To be fair, I am.) It just means that people like reading this thing and I think that's pretty cool. I've been calling this "the best Milwaukee Brewers blog in the world" for awhile now, but that was mostly just pro-wrestling style posturing. The fact that some people actually believe that in real life is a pretty cool thing and I really do appreciate that. I'll try to update more just for you guys. How does twice a month sound?
Okay, I guess this is the part where I thank people. I'd like to thank the rest of Team MPD which is basically just Tyler and Steph. I think you two are really cool and funny so when you two tell me how cool and funny you think I am I believe it. You should tell me that more often actually. That one time just isn't cutting it. I'd like to thank Ryan Braun for giving me so much material to work with, but then testing positive for something and forcing me to re-evaluate my feelings on him thus giving me even more material. All our best posts are about you, buddy. I'd like to thank Prince Fielder for doing that McDonalds commercial as a kid. I'd like to thank Doug and Mark for putting together a team that is so worthwhile to write about. If this was a Pirates blog I would have gave up a long time ago. (Remember when I did that Bucks blog for like a week? lol.) I'd like to thank the state of Wisconsin for being the best state in the world and, of course, I'd like to thank all of the readers.
Thanks to those of you who comment on stuff we do. Like Tuco who actually wrote the sentence "Vince is a kinder gentler human these days" in my defense and apparently meant it or SconnieGirl808 who I have been missing lately. I read every comment and I appreciate all of them. Thanks to the person on reddit who said I was a great guy. (Seriously, where do you guys get this from?) Thanks to all my people on twitter. I did twitter for awhile and thought it was stupid, but ever since the playoffs last year I can't quit you. You make watching a baseball game alone at home on my laptop fun. An additional thanks goes out to the twitter people for getting @millerparkdrunk to trend in Milwaukee during Braun's speech in spring training. That was neat! (I think.) Thanks to the other blogs who shout out to us and do the real analysis so we can do that thing we do. Let me know if you ever want to get weird. Thanks to everyone who came to the Pants Party two years ago and everyone who is going to come to this year's party (COMING SOON I PROMISE.) It was fun doing keg stands in my boxers with you guys. Just thanks to everyone who likes this. Seriously, thanks I mean it.
Finally, I'd like to thank the team of programmers who created the program that voted for this site more than any other. No way we could have won this award without you!
Alright, that's all I got. Real posts coming soon.

C.J. Bryant scored 22 points for the Raiders and helped McCowan score his 13th consecutive win over Soddy-Daisy with a 69-42 victory in the first round of the District 5-AAA tournament.
Jahmal Johnson reached double figures for Cleveland with 14.
"Our main goal was to come in here and win. If you lose, you're going home," said McCowan after the win. "You play the first one and now we get to practice and get ready for our next opponent. Having qualified for the region tournament, it's (the two days off before the district semifinals) a little reward for getting the No. 2 seed."
Cleveland takes on the winner of tonight's Bradley Central-McMinn County game, Saturday at 7:30 in the Raider Dome. The Bears (14-11) are the event's No. 3 seed, while the Cherokees (9-16) are a sixth seed.
The other game this evening features the third-seeded Cleveland (16-8) girls taking on No. 6 Ooltewah (5-19) at 6 p.m.
In Wednesday's girls' opener, second-seeded McMinn County (18-7) eliminated Soddy-Daisy (10-15) by a 51-29 margin.
The Lady Cherokees will face the Lady Raiders-Lady Owl victor Saturday at 4:30 p.m.
The Blue Raiders dominated the first half offensively, holding Soddy-Daisy to 14 points in the first 16 minutes. The Trojans scored their last point of the first quarter with 5:18 left to tie the game at 5-5. Jahmal Johnson's steal and slam dunk put the Raiders out front and Isaiah Beaty stretched the lead to 10 points with 1:51 to go in the quarter.
Cleveland kept momentum and control of the game in the second. The Raiders held Soddy-Daisy to five points in the first six minutes of the period while adding 17 to the home side of the scoreboard.
Holding a 35-14 lead to open the third quarter, the Raiders slowed down on the offensive side of the court. Soddy-Daisy broke through the single-digit barrier, scoring 15 points in the quarter to the Raiders' 17, but remained in a hole it would not climb out of.
"I thought we played hard. The second half we came out and made a few shots and quit boxing out. But, that's just me being really picky," said McCowan. "Overall I thought our kids played really hard. It was a tough atmosphere. We didn't have a lot of kids from our student section here, so it was a little bit flat."
Cleveland built a 30-point lead early in the fourth quarter allowing McCowan to empty his bench and rest his starters in anticipation of a tough game Saturday against either the Bears or Cherokees.
The Trojans got the best of Cleveland on the boards, outrebounding the Blue Raiders 34-28. Soddy-Daisy committed 24 turnovers to only 11 for Cleveland.
From the field, the Raiders were 27-of-55 overall and hit only 6-of-23 from behind the 3-point line. Soddy-Daisy made good on only 14-of-46 attempts from the floor and scored on 5-of-18 from behind the arc.
"We played a lot of kids. We wanted to get a lot in tonight if we could get up [by a big margin]. This time last year it was 57-52 against them and our bench was really short. You never want to go through a situation like that, but it was easier to get their attention and let them know if they don't take care of business, we will be moving on to the next sport," said the coach.
"It will be a different look as the week gets on. The games will be a little tighter. But, we are looking forward to it and hopefully we can have the exciting atmosphere we have had the last couple of years."
Soddy-Daisy 5 9 15 13 — 42
Cleveland 17 18 17 17 — 69
Soddy-Daisy (42) — James York 14, Landreth 8, Amos 7, Carter 6, Wright 4, Floyd 3, Kearney, Shaughnessy, Millsaps.
Cleveland (69) — C.J. Bryant 22, Jahamal Johnson 14, Thompson 9, Beaty 5, Little 4, Scott 3, Bunion 3, Ware 2, Brown 2, Dykes, Constant, McKee.
3-point goals: Soddy-Daisy 3 (York 2, Landreth); Cleveland 6 (Bryant 3, Thompson 2, Scott).
Free throws: Soddy-Daisy 9-of-16; Cleveland 9-of- 21.
Records: Soddy-Daisy 9-17; Cleveland 17-9.

Order Information
Many influential visitors have written about Alaska, among them John Muir, John McPhee, and James Michener. In OUR ALASKA, award-winning writer and editor Mike Doogan forges an eclectic collection of stories both refreshingly simple and thoughtfully profound from a variety of Alaskan writers. These are real stories: among them sharing tales of boyhood trips to Lake Minchumina; growing up aboard a fishing trawler; being a "tourist herder" near Nome; understanding the rich, powerful meaning of the Koyukon Indian "Hutlani" code; recounting a black man's fateful decision to pass up a lucrative job in Washington, D.C. in favor of what Alaska offered his family; and understanding the importance of berry-picking to a city dweller.
ABOUT THE EDITOR: Mike Doogan, a lifelong Alaskan, is a writer, teacher, political activist, and former journalist who shared in a Pulitzer Prize won by the Anchorage Daily News.

As the platform moves along between rows of trees, workers can pick from both rows at the same time. The platform is lowered and raised as needed so workers can reach all of the fruit.
Fitted with work lights, the prototype went into phase two of the test at Riveridge when a second crew was trained and the machine was put on a two-shift schedule.
"That could really be crucial when you get to the end of the season and need to get the rest of your fruit in fast because cold weather is coming," Armock said.
After harvest, the platform can continue to save growers money by speeding the pruning process by eliminating ladder work. Brown said he believes one platform could harvest 75 to 100 acres per season if it was used for two 10-hour shifts a day.

Fulgham's preliminary hearing to determine if he should be bound over to a grand jury was held Tuesday at the Bolivar County Justice Court in Cleveland.
Justice Court Judge Harold Ward found there was probable cause for a grand jury trial based on the testimony of Mississippi Bureau of Investigation Agent Mark Steed.
Fulgham will be detained until his case is presented to a Bolivar County Grand Jury.
According to the Bolivar County Sheriff's Department's dispatch log, a call came into the department at approximately 6:10 a.m. on Oct. 20 by a woman traveling north on U.S. Highway 61, saying she had hit an object in the road and thought it was a body.
Deputies were dispatched to the scene and immediately contacted the Mississippi Highway Patrol. In the meantime, the department received numerous other calls about the incident.
Sgt. Mike Mullins of the Mississippi Highway Patrol said when he arrived on the scene it was apparent that multiple different vehicles struck Harmon.

Hard work, long hours. That's reality for America's small-business owners. You know what it takes, and you know who built your business.
You also know that time is one of your most valuable assets. You don't get second chances.
Between now and Dec. 31, except for important holidays, family events and religious observances, you'll take advantage of every opportunity during those 100-plus days to build and sustain your Main Street firm.
Congress, however, has only about 30 official work days scheduled before the end of the year. Much of that time will be lost due to the inefficient machinery that politicians have built into the business of legislating.
The most important thing that both you and Congress can do in these next few weeks is keep the date Dec. 31 in sharp focus. If lawmakers fail to act responsibly and extend a number of important tax provisions that will have a direct impact on your business, America—not just small business—will sail off the so-called "Fiscal Cliff." Awaiting you at the bottom is an almost $500 billion tax increase.
For the 75 percent of you who pay your taxes as individuals, your rates will skyrocket. For those of you who want to pass your businesses on to family members, estate tax exemption levels will rise and rates will leap 20 percentage points.
And there's plenty more to worry about if this deadline passes without favorable action on Capitol Hill: Section 179 expensing limits will plummet to $25,000 while the so-called "built-in gains" holding period for S corporation assets will increase to ten years, and about 23 million additional taxpayers will be hit with the alternative minimum tax.
No matter what you're doing at this moment, stop and mark your calendars with three important dates. First, today: call, visit AND write your senators and members of Congress. Urge them to keep your business and our nation from going over the cliff.
Second, Nov. 6, Election Day: go to the polls and vote for those who care about small business and free enterprise. Encourage as many family members, employees and friends to do the same.
Third, Dec. 31: when this day arrives, give yourself a pat on the back for making every effort possible during the previous 100-plus days to prevent this financial disaster from happening.
The Fiscal Cliff should have never been a possibility in the first place. Our nation cannot sustain such irresponsible tinkering with its financial structure. As a small-business owner, you understand the importance of balancing your budget, spending no more than you take in, and putting any assets you gain back into your enterprise to make it successful.
Now is the time to demand that your legislators learn to do the same. Like its small-business foundation, time is also one of America's most valuable assets. Neither should be squandered for the sake of political gain.
Do it now. Tell Congress to give small-business owners greater tax certainty. You'll take America's recovery from there.

CCOF certifies the company's organic products and practices, and also helps Earthbound Farm understand new regulations and lobbies for organic producers in Washington, D.C., Goodman said.
FuentesFuentes started growing berries for Driscoll's in 1985. He formed his own company in 2003, and now oversees about 116 acres of organic blackberries, strawberries and raspberries in Watsonville and Salinas, and plans to convert his conventional acreage over time.
"It's a lot of learning to do but once you have your own land and you're doing some cover cropping and finding the different crop rotations to compensate your soil, you'll be OK and keep it healthy," he said.
Brennan said research is taking place on 25 acres of land at the station and collaborating farms. There is for-profit production at the station, he said.
Several of CCOF's early leaders, among them Bob Scowcroft and Mark Lipson, spoke to the tour group.

Thanks to Obamacare my family's insurance is bascially gone now, unless something catastrophic happens. We went from co-pays that were $15 for general care, to $45, & $40 for a specialist to $75! So now if I take my 3 kids to the doctor at the same time I have to pay $135 just in co-pays. Then our out of pocket went from $1000 per person to $2,000 per person! Maximum out of pocket now is $10,000 per person! We are small business owners who have always provided insurance for our employees. We used to even provide paid maternity leave. Needless to say, we can't do that now! We employee 20 some people, so all of them will have this insurance as well. Oh, but our premiums went down about $800! Shouldn't we be thankful?!! This is just the beginning!
My daughter also had her policy canceled. But she admits it was a sub-standard insurance policy. When she called the phone number she was able to obtain a better insurance policy and her premiums went from $374 per month to $0.00. Yes, you read that right. To zero.
She does live in a state that is participating in the programs, so that all of it's citizens will have affordable access to medical care. Is your state one that decided against that?
I was recently hospitalized in Vancouver, BC and I have to tell you, a single payer plan would be soooo much better than what the insurance company owned polititions shoved through. Anthony Weiner has at least one thing right. He says to lower the age for Medicare every year until everyone is covered. Siimple, single payer plan.
One of the lawsuits about medical care in Canada is from a gentleman suing the government because he has to pay for parking when he goes to see his doctor. If his medical care isn't supposed to cost him anything out of pocket, then he thinks his parking should be covered, too. Far cry from medical care lawsuits here.
My internist has just left the practice and opened her own practice. She no longer takes insurance. You pay an annual fee for things outside of the office....copying records, refilling prescriptions, keeping notes, referrals to specialists, etc. and then a fee for office visits which you can then file with your insurance company for reimbursement. She says she's tired of insurance companies telling her how long she can spend with her patients...either 15 minutes or 30 minute appointments. She wants to be able to spend as much time with her patients as they need. As for me, I'm tired of some accountant at an insurance company making decisions about my medical care. At the very least, someone who actually has some medical training beyond "Take two aspirin and call me in the morning." should be involved.
Sorry, but if the plan the President had proposed....a single payer plan with insurance companies covering your home, your auto, etc. but not your body, things might be better. But there's too much profit in medical care for them to give that up without a fight and without some major contributions to politicians' election funds. And if there's a lot of profit in people being sick, then someone is making wrong headed decisions about our health care.
Wow. So she didn't have any trouble signing up? I have friends who have been trying to sign up for weeks now, and still have been unable to do so. They have called for assistance many times, and still been unable to sign up. They are so frustrated! Their insurance ended with the new year, so they are worried to say the least. I haven't heard of anyone who is better off as a result of Obamacare, except your daughter. I'm glad it is benefiting one person, I suppose. The cost may be a bit high though for all the people it is hurting! Oh, and I forgot to mention that our policy costs our family $15,000 a year! Now add in the cost for our 20 some employees! This is only the beginning, and all the uneducated people who voted for this will pay the cost along with all of us who knew it was a disaster!
I most definitely think it's a good idea. I have two friends who now are covered after being uninsurable for years (one who has MS, one with a history of breast cancer), and my brother's now covered on my parents' plan, which gives us all peace of mind because he rock climbs and back country skiis on his free time so is a major injury risk. I also have several friends who will be paying hundreds less per month, and one of them is able to get insurance for her kids that's actually decent for the first time. Yes, the process of signing up was a pain in the butt (those consultants who were hired to do it should not be paid at all), but once they worked through it, they were really pleased.
I also happen to know because I work in health policy that the country desperately needs its citizens to be insured and to receive preventive care - the billions we spend on paying for chronic diseases aren't there in the Treasury's coffers, as we all know, and we need patients taking care of themselves and receiving a doctor's attention when they can still avoid diabetes, heart disease, etc., which the health law helps make possible. 76% of Medicare spending is on patients with five or more chronic diseases - that is absurd when pretty much all of that is avoidable.
Anyway, the only thing that ticks me off is that I live in a state with a governor / assembly that chose to pass on the medicaid expansion, so I'm essentially paying Federal taxes that are now going to expand Medicaid in other states and not here. Stupid.

Leigh, you've hit the nail squarely on the head. We have such a broken system here, and I simply can't understand people who want to deny fellow citizens access to medical care.
When I was in Vancouver, our friend took us to Vancouver General Hospital. It's a huge multi-building teaching complex. I'm American, so my first thought when I saw the place was "I wonder how many hours I'll be waiting in the ER." Surprise! No wait at all. I never got to sit down in the waiting area. I was whisked back immediately. So my first lesson in a national health care plan is that when people can see a doctor when they're sick, it unclogs the emergency health system.
So many people wait and wait because they can't afford to see a doctor, and then something minor, becomes something major.
One of my daughter's friends was haranguing about Obamacare on his facebook page. After lots of nasty comments, my daughter responded to him...."You are the very person who NEEDS Obamacare. You've had a heart transplant. If not for the Affordable Care Act, you would be uninsurable." The thread on that conversation went away.
I agree that our President misspoke when he said that you can keep your policies. I don't think it occurred to him or to his writers just how many substandard insurance policies these companies have written. Those policies should never have been written, let alone sold to people. It is unconcionable. Like buying a house that has sub standard construction. It's going to come down in the first big storm. Catstrophic insurance is almost useless. There aren't very many people who have catastropohic illnesses, and it's possible that they're not carrying any insurance beyond catastrophic. Day to day medical care was out of reach for many, many Americans, and when people can't afford to pay their medical bills, guess who picks up the tab. You and I do. It's time for my taxes to do more than provide cannon fodder in the middle east. A healthy country would be a good start.
Interesting that the positive comments are all "new users"....hmmmm.
Anyway, again my family has been hurt a lot by Obamacare and every family that I know (working people) have been hurt. I do not know anyone it has benefitted. I suppose there may be a few who it will help, but those who have been hurt (as my family has been and as all our employees have been) far outweigh the benefits.
I'm just curious, though for all of you who think this is so wonderful.....do you even care about all the people who have been hurt by this? What do you have to say about that? Do you care that more people are hurt than helped? Do you care that doctors are deciding to quit practicing, because it isn't woth it any more? Do you care that hospitals like Cleveland Clinic have laid off a lot of people because of it? Do you care that everyone's prescriptions are going to cost a whole lot more now because of it? Do you care that many families won't be able to afford insurance or the fine? Do you care that deductibles have gone way up (doubled and tripled in many cases)? Do you care that most people can't afford that? Do you care the policy costs have gone up? I know for a fact that local hospitals have met trying to decide how to cut costs in order to survive this law. I know that most likely it will result in lost jobs in health care, and lots of them!
The President didn't mis-speak. He knew all along. He lied, as he does daily. It is amazing how blind our nation has become and how they will accept anything he says without ever checking for themselves. He said he wanted a single payer system before he was elected, but then said he didn't want a single payer system. He said, "if you like your insurance you can keep it", and those who said this was a lie were ridiculed, but look what happened! I just can't believe how foolish our nation has become and how they can be duped into anything with a little smooth talk. It is very sad, and we all will pay the consequences for the foolishness of so many!

Every decade the U.S. Constitution, under the Voting Rights Act of 1964, mandates that all levels of government, from local to national, redraw their voting districts.
For months, Chris Watson, a certified planner from the Oxford based firm of Bridge and Watson, Inc., has been working for the city to redraw the election wards.
"With the release of the 2010 census, we know that the city of Cleveland's election wards are out of balance," explained Watson. "From the one person, one vote standpoint, the city's variance the way the lines are drawn now is at 46 percent where no more that 10 percent is and acceptable standard of the U.S. Department of Justice.
"What this means is that we have to adjust the population by moving ward line around in an effort to redistribute the population so that we fall within that ten percent," Watson said.
Under his calculations, Ward One, or Alderman Maurice Smith's ward, would have to give up approximately 190 people.
Ward Two, Alderman Robert Sanders' ward, must gain approximately 359 people.
Ward Three, Alderman Danny Abraham's ward, must give up approximately 580 people.
Ward Four, Alderman Kirkham Povall's ward, must give up 113 people.
Ward Five, Alderman Paul Janoush's ward, remains in balance and could be the only one that remains unchanged from the last redistricting.
Ward Six, Alderman Ted Campbell's ward, must gain approximately 341 people.
Under this equation, Watson presented the Board with two maps that would alleviate the city's variance issues.
"We developed an initial redistricting plan and drew the map, titled "Proposed Election Wards" that corrected our population issues," Watson continued.
Alderman Danny Abraham was absent from that initial meeting but had some ideas about the proposed changes.
"If you all recall, we had some discussions with regards to exploring some simple changes to the proposal," he said. "With those discussion came changes, mainly between ward three and ward four, and those are laid out before you in the map entitled 'Alternate No. 1 Proposed Election Wards."
Watson added that based on the discussions that took place, that the 'Alternate No. 1' plan would likely be the best fit for the city.
By recommendation from the city attorney Jamie Jacks, the board decided to move further discussions to executive session.
Mayor Billy Nowell told The Bolivar Commercial this morning that while the board was leaning toward the "Alternate No. I Proposed Plan," they decided to postpone a final decision on which map to choose until a discussion with the city's insurance agent Ned Mitchell as to coverage concerning the decision could be held.
The Bolivar Commercial will have more on the issues as it becomes available.

This is a "self delivery" pack which has been designed specifically for National Science and Engineering Week 2013. The science behind fingeprints is well known! What is not so well known is the link between fingerprints and footprints. Right Angle Events have launched a new education pack called 'Toes for Turf' comprising at least 4 hours of fun teaching material linked to Key Stage 1-4 Mathematics.
We have designed a fantastic scheme especially for National Science & Engineering Week called "Toes For Turf". The science behind fingerprints is well known. What is not so well known is the science behind footprints or "feet prints". This activity enables students to take, classify and "lift" both fingerprints and foot prints. As the research on footprints is meagre, this scheme will allow students to make some discoveries about the correlation or otherwise between fingerprints and feet prints.

I'm looking for a tough, convenient and easy to clean device that allows me to brew good coffee when camping. I'm particularly interested in something that can easily brew coffee for up to 6 people, but suggestions for light weight single serving devices are also welcome. asked Jun 12 '11 at 23:45 federico |
I have an Aeropress which is easily portable and makes the best cup of coffee I've ever had. It's great for a couple of servings at once but may be less useful for parties of 6. To do more at once, maybe a larger french press like the Bodum 1548-01. linkanswered Jun 13 '11 at 00:19 eduprey Seconding Aeropress, all the way. It's portable, durable, and makes fantastic coffee. We use it as our daily coffee maker & take it when traveling sometimes as well.
3 years, 7 months ago
Another vote for the Aeropress. Coffee is great with virtually no bitterness, and cleanup is a breeze -- all that is left is a solid puck of coffee grounds that can be ejected from the press.

We use a melitta drip cone with a regular filter. Boil a pot of water then pour it over the beans and let it drip into another pan or a carafe. Not exotic or fancy but it's foolproof, indestructible, and very easy to clean/rinse while camping. http://www.amazon.com/Melitta-Cone-Filter-Coffeemaker-1-Count/dp/B000MIT2OK linkanswered Jun 14 '11 at 13:16 ubizubi +1 for the melitta cone. There is a small one you can use over a mug or thermos that I prefer, and can be had at many US grocery stores with a mug for about $8, or without a mug for $3. http://www.amazon.com/Melitta-Ready-Single-Coffee-Brewer/dp/B0014CVEH6/
2 years, 7 months ago
The Aeropress is a great option, but there is also a simpler way to make good coffee with minimal equipment. Get a gold mesh filter cone. Brew the coffee by stirring the ground coffee directly into a pot of hot water, let it steep for a couple minutes (equivalent to a French press brew time) then pour it in to individual cups, using the gold mesh filter as a sieve. If you pour carefully, most of the grounds stay in the pot, so you don't even need a very large gold mesh filter. linkanswered Jul 27 '11 at 17:25 Tom Sackett |
I'm with pelicanhook. Go one step simpler though. Toss the guts of the pot and make cowboy coffee. Just boil the stuff a while, toss in an eggshell to smooth out the acid if you have one, take it off the heat and add a little cold water to settle the grounds. Pour slowley and rinse out the last cup. linkanswered Jul 27 '11 at 19:43 Keith |
My favorite solution is Starbucks Via. Especially if it's hot out, you can simply mix it with a small bottle (or half bottle) of cold bottled water and magic cold coffee! Costco sells a multipack at about half the per-unit price as Starbucks stores or the supermarket, and Amazon has a 60-ish count item intended as a foodservice pack at about the same per-unit cost. linkanswered Jun 27 '12 at 09:16 scott |
May I suggest brewing Turkish style coffee in an Ibrik? It may take a couple of rounds of production, but that's just a few minutes of coffee production interaction. Turkish coffee is a potent and intense concoction and IMO, 4 oz. is equal to an 8 oz. cup of conventionally brewed coffee. Preparation involves grinding whole bean coffee to a very fine powder (Your local coffee shop with a calibrated grinder will produce the proper grind #1 or "Turkish"). Pre-measure 125mL of cold water for a 4oz cup. Most Ibriks can easily hold 250mL. Add some sugar and about 2 well rounded tsp of coffee powder for each 125mL. Bring to boil two times allowing a rest of 20 seconds between each boil. After the third and last boil, allow to rest for more than a minute (allows the powder to settle). Carefully pour the coffee into small 4 oz cups. When poured correctly, there will be very little residue in the cup as most will be in the Ibrik. On a propane stove, the entire process would take up 3-4 minutes. Most importantly, the brewer must attend to the process full time as the trick is to remove the Ibrik to prevent boil-over. Your fellow campers will be happy and wired. No filters to clean/throwaway, easy cleanup and one or two tbl spoons of coffee residue in the Ibrik can be composted. linkanswered Jun 13 '11 at 14:45 Gryhze |
I have to concur, the melitta drip cone is what I used for years. Light weight and easy to clean. If you go with a gold melitta cone (gold cone) there's no waste except the coffee grinds. linkanswered Jun 15 '11 at 14:28 kevy |
I've used a lexan french press (easy to find at REI or a similar outdoor store) in the past. This makes it easy to brew for a group. My last car camping trip, I brought my Aeropress and found it was perfect for 1 or 2 people. I know this is heretical for real coffee snobs, but I usually just use Starbucks Via when backpacking. linkanswered Jun 17 '11 at 12:02 |
Like ubizubi and kevy, we use a Melitta. It's a little slow-going for large groups (if you're using one cup for the whole group), but they certainly are light enough that each person could carry their own. With that said, they can be a bit tricky to fit in your pack. I usually pack mine between/with soft things (eg: spare socks, liner bag). Next time, I might just clip it to the outside of my pack. This is essentially the same method we use to make coffee at home. After use, the cone is basically still clean. We burn the used filters and grounds on our morning fire. linkanswered Jun 20 '11 at 15:25 camille |
I like an old two cup aluminum percolator. Carry the grounds in a zip lock inside it, it's about the same size as a mug (which you can use it as if you don't mind a mug with a spout) and it's light. You can heat it over anything you can boil water with. ...and perked coffee? You can't beat the taste and aroma. Excelsior linkanswered Jul 19 '11 at 13:09 pelicanhook |

For the record, I am not really calling the Giants losers after one game like that. I am just so in love with the title of Emma Watson's newest project, "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" that I had to use it.
Don't get me wrong. I hate when the Giants lose and have no offense. But it does have perks! It all puts me into neurotic girl-fan mode and I, well, bake. A lot. The product of today's loss? The awesomest pecan rolls ever. If I do say so myself. My family does not mind the loss at all. Except for The Brother, who does not like pecan rolls (how can you not like pecan rolls? No idea.) and asks me ever so earnestly to please make chocolate cake next time. I said yes. So he's probably rooting for another loss soon.
These are the pecan rolls in their beautiful uncooked state.
Am I trying to get all our minds off that game? Yes, I am. But it has to be discussed some time and there's no time like the present. Let's do this!
Timmy faced Clayton by some loveliness of the schedule that pitted the aces against each other. It was a great pitching game, with the Dodgers getting 3 hits and 1 run and the Giants getting 3 hits and, ahem, no runs. Which tallies- if you're not real good with math- for a 1-0 final score, LA winning.
As depressing as the train of 0'fers is, it really was a stellar pitcher they were facing and San Francisco took two out of three from the series. I won't repeat the stale saying that if you win but don't sweep every series in the season you'd have a pretty great final win-loss record, but… if you win but don't sweep every series in the season you'd have a pretty great final win-loss record. It's true.
And Chris Stewart got two hits, which makes me irrationally smiley. He is our resident Smart Ballplayer here, who spends his copious amounts of downtime reading historical fiction and political memoirs and "whatever piques his interest". I wasn't aware that anyone actually reads that stuff – remember when they call political memoirs "the black hole of publishing" in The Ghost? So I was impressed with him. And then that arm. That arm. I am in love with that arm. I also saw him in Fresno in April and I've kind of had an affinity for him ever since. He also has stated that his favorite football teams are the Dallas Cowboys. Think that means he likes the Rangers too, but is afraid to say it? I will have to explore this further. So his hits were definitely a perk. As much I like Eli, I am kind of hoping Chris wins the backup job when Buster comes back. Just thinking about the distant future here.
So, see? There are perks to losing a game here and there. The Brewers are coming to town on Friday which I am alternately very excited/not excited at all about. Ryan seems to be alive and kicking and healthy(ish), which is, of course, News That Makes Me Totally Stoked.
Now if only Pablo heal up nice and fast and Jeff Keppinger (I so needed Google to get the name right) would display some wonderful skills with the bat, my nerves would calm down not to mention we'd have way fewer dishes to do to, following my baking sprees.
Sorry, I refuse to say Happy Hump Day. But Happy Wednesday!
