"If I started Subway today, Subway would not exist."
Fred Deluca, founder of Subway restaurants, made this statement on CNBC this week and caused a shudder throughout America. Some because they love those tasty sandwiches, but most because it is such a sad statement on where our country is headed.
When an iconic and wildly successful franchisor say he wouldn't exist today because of "harsh" government regulation it ought to make politicians everywhere stop in their tracks.
When will Congress and legislators in my state – Illinois – figure it out? Government overregulation and overreach is killing our small business community and therefore killing our economy.
NFIB has done extensive research of our small business members for decades. Every four years, since 1982, NFIB has issued "Small Business Problems & Priorities." So I looked at the top 5 small business concerns in 1986 compared to our 2012 results and frankly it echoes Mr. Deluca's comments.
Below is a comparison of top small business issues in 1982 and 2012:
1982 2012
1. Interest Rates Cost of Health Care
2. Cost of Liability Insurance Uncertainty over Economic Conditions
3. Cost of Natural Gas, Fuel Cost of Natural Gas, Fuel
4. Telephone Rates Uncertainty over Govt. Actions
5. Cash Flow Unreasonable Govt. Regulations
6. Cost of P&C Insurance Fed. Taxes on Business Income
Isn't it interesting that in 1986 only two were related to government (interest rates and gas/fuel). Yet in 2012 you could argue all 6 of the issues are related to government's direct or indirect action.
Unfortunately there seems to be little relief in sight. Once fully implemented, Obamacare will be devastating to small businesses and their ability to keep and afford their current health insurance. Small businesses also face an annual regulatory cost of $10,585 per employee to comply with just federal regulations. Under just the Obama Administration 6,125 regulations and notices – an average of 68 a day – were posted over a 90 day period. In 2012, the EPA's paperwork, alone, took 176.2 million hours and $2.4 billion –a 30 million hour increase in the past 4 years.
I could go on and on ….
The government creep over the last 26 years has clearly led to many of the problems facing small business owners today. Mr. Deluca's short but potent comment should really be a wakeup call to all elected officials — government is not the answer but the problem.

Jagged Arrays
A jagged array is an array of arrays in which the length of each array can differ. Thus, a jagged array can be used to create a table in which the lengths of the rows are not the same.Jagged arrays are declared by using sets of square brackets to indicate each dimension.
For example,
to declare a two-dimensional jagged array, you will use this general form:
type[ ] [ ] array-name = new type[size][ ];
Here, size indicates the number of rows in the array. The rows, themselves, have not been allocated. Instead, the rows are allocated individually. This allows for the length of each row to vary. For example, the following code allocates memory for the first dimension of jagged when it is declared. It then allocates the second dimensions manually.
int[][] jagged = new int[3][];
jagged[0] = new int[4];
jagged[1] = new int[3];
jagged[2] = new int[5];
Jagged arrays are not used by all applications, but they can be effective in some situations. For example, if you need a very large two-dimensional array that is sparsely populated (that is, one in which not all of the elements will be used), then a jagged array might be a perfect solution.

If it was in a box how would they know it "crumbled" close to your house? I would email the bride back and tell her exactly what happened with the grandparents insisting on shoving it in the car against your advice. If the box was closed there's no way they would know what condition it was in until they got to the venue. You're not responsible for their stupidity.

Covercraft WeatherShield HP Two-Color Car Covers
WeatherShield's Key Features and Benefits
- Dramatic Rain Dispersion - Fabric sheds water as soon as it hits the cover.
- Superior Dry Time - Because the fabric sheds moisture, just shake the cover and it dries in minutes (HD fabric is heavier and requires additional drying time).
- Breathable - Allows any heat, moisture or condensation under the cover to easily escape.
- UV Resistant - Special additives to the encapsulation formula reduce fabric UV degradation.
- Superior Paint Finish Protection - Silicone polymers used in the encapsulation formula help create a silky-smooth finish that's even less abrasive than flannel (HD uses heavier denier thread which is not as smooth).
- Packs Small - Cover packs into roughly 1/3 the volume of multi-layer fabric covers (HD covers are bulkier).
- Easy Care - Wash and dry at home... most mid-size covers will fit in home washers and dryers - and, unlike non-woven materials, they can be thrown in a dryer.
- Durable Fade-Resistant Base Fabrics - Premium solution-dye fibers mean the covers resist fading and hold their color longer.
Why WeatherShield?
Over 20 years ago Covercraft partnered with Nextec Applications, Inc., a technology leader that pioneered a new process for creating performance fabrics used primarily in the outdoor clothing industry. By using precise polymer placement and special chemistries, they were able to place protective finishes inside the fabric, encapsulating the actual woven fibers to transform ordinary fabric into extra-ordinary! The encapsulation processes, methods and equipment are protected by more than 51 patents issued or pending in the U.S. and internationally.
Working with Nextec's extensive R&D resources Covercraft created what is considered the "perfect" fabric for outdoor or indoor vehicle protection.
WeatherShield® HP (for "high performance") is manufactured with solution-dye fibers which makes fabrics more fade resistant and is currently one of the most ecologically responsible ways to produce fabric. Solution-dye isn't really a dye process, the color pigments are mixed into the compound that is extruded as thread. This puts the color all the way through each fiber (fade resistant) and saves 1,000 gallons of water for every 1,000 yards of fabric produced since we don't have to surface dye the fabric!
To construct this amazing fabric, prefinishing chemistries are applied to the solution-dye polyester fabric to prep it for the encapsulation process. Nextec proprietary equipment then applies a viscous (gooey) patented mixture of silicon-based polymers onto the fabric. Energy (heat and pressure) is applied to the polymers, working them inside the fabric and wrapping the individual fade resistant fibers. All but the smallest spaces are filled and the micro holes that remain allow the fabric to "breathe" so any moisture or heat under the cover can easily escape. Specially designed ovens cure the polymers to a solid state and the fabric is ready to make into covers.
No microfibers, no laminates, no surface coatings... EPIC® by Nextec's encapsulation process delivers all weather protection, compact packability, easy care, and a soft-to-paint touch without sacrificing breathability.
WeatherShield is not waterproof, but if kept clean it will shed most water and help prevent dust, dirt, bird droppings and tree sap from reaching the vehicle surface. The breathable properties of the fabric assure that any heat, moisture or condensation under the cover can easily escape.
Personalize Your Cover
Now you can mix and match WeatherShield® HP fabric colors to personalize your custom car cover. Specify a DECK color (hood/roof/trunk) and SIDES color (both sides and mirror pockets, if applicable, are the same color). Imagine the possibilities!
Available in 8 Colors (64 Color Combinations):
Bright Blue (PA)
Black (PB)
Gray (PG)
Light Blue (PL)
Green (PN)
Red (PR)
Taupe (PT)
Yellow (PY)

($200; bottled in February '09) Good full medium bright ruby. Fresher on the nose than the Napa bottling, offering cassis, bitter chocolate and roasted herbs. Then very ripe and dense but suave, showing good energy and a slightly clenched middle palate. The tannins are serious and granular, but here there's plenty of supporting mid-palate material. Still a bit awkward following the recent bottling; this may well merit a higher score three or four years down the road.

The 2006 Insignia (95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot; 16,000 cases produced) is a superb effort in this vintage. Another 30+ year wine, it boasts a dense plum/purple color as well as abundant notes of licorice, black currants, charcoal, black olives, and graphite. Full-bodied, pure, and rich with moderately high tannins, it represents a California version of a Bordeaux from Pauillac or St.-Julien.
Drink Dates: 2014-2045Professional content appears courtesy of Vinfolio
Teasing with its floral, spicy cherry, wild berry and currant aromas, this is full-bodied, firm and structured, tight and focused, offering glimpses of what lies ahead with its complex mix of flavors and tightly wound tannins. Yet its finesse and refinement are apparent on the finish. Needs time. Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot.

Secure your wrap-around bridge with quality guitar hardware.
This is the new locking version of the common Guitar Stud (tailpiece not included) as used on wrap-around style bridge and tailpiece combinations. Attaches solidly to your guitar and won't come loose or fall off when the strings are off. These TonePros System II components are the same that you will find installed on the top new guitars direct from the factory. The studs look identical to your stock pieces but will turn your wrap-around including Badass, Schaller 455, and Wilkinson bridge/tail combos into a solid, locking system. These new TonePros studs lock your existing Wrap-around solidly in place creating perfect intonation and singing sustain. Fits most guitars with wrap-around style bridges with standard SAE threaded inserts.

Comments about TonePros Locking Studs-US Thread:
Great, inexpensive , reversible, upgrade for any TOM equipped guitar. I've swapped these with the stock hardware on several Les Paul and SG guitars with good results. Not sure I buy into all the hype about locking hardware increasing sustain and all that. They won't make a bad sounding guitar suddenly sound awesome. But they may help with tuning stability. These do give you a nice secure feel and keeps your tailpiece from falling off during string changes. The brass construction may add a little beef to your tone if you have zinc studs stock. They do have a nice finish and are very well made. I like the Tonepros stuff because they give you the option of brass or steel construction, and they have many more finish options than many of the competitors. I would definitely choose these over the Chinese made Faber parts that have broken on me several times in the past.

12 March 2013
Mission: Postponed (A day at the airport)
An easyJet plane, just sitting on the runway |
I was all set to go to Bristol this weekend - full of enthusiasm for the Bristol Improv Festival, and newly inspired about the material I was about to teach, and to see some UK-based friends, many of whom I hadn't seen in a while. Plus make a little money and do a little travel. It really was set up rather perfectly.
But it wasn't just the planning that was well done; I executed my part well - woke up early, got through security at Schiphol about 45 minutes before the flight was due to take off, feeling well rested and caffeinated. Things were looking good. Even when they boarded us onto the plane about 15 minutes late, I wasn't worried. I should've been, but I didn't know it yet.
The flight I booked was set to land at 10.05, and my workshop was starting at 12.30. The trip from Bristol airport to Bristol is about half an hour, the bus station is a seven minute walk from where the workshops were being held. Fifteen minutes wouldn't throw my schedule off - I had very wisely put a healthy cushion between me and travel issues.
Then that fifteen minutes became half an hour, then an hour.
Apparently there was a bit of a technical problem with one of the engines. I was torn - when preparing to hurtle through the stratosphere in a massive steel tube there's no such thing as a 'bit of a technical problem' - it's like pregnancy - you either are or you are not.
So, although I really wanted to get going, I also didn't want to fly in a plane with technical problems. So I endured the runway repairs with as much equanimity as I could muster. Besides, the workshop I was going to teach was called 'Taking it Easy', so it was important for me to be graceful as these delays waylaid me.
But when that hour became two of sitting on the runway I was practically shouting at the pilot: "ROLL THE DICE YOU FUCKING PUSSY! LET'S GOOOOOOOO!"
Naturally this was in my head. On the outside I was quietly sending frantic texts and emails to the festival organiser, keeping him up to date on my mental arithmetic: well, I should be an hour late, can we start my workshop at 13.30?
No wait, can someone pick me up? We should be leaving any second, so I'll only be 45 minutes late. All the time I was rocking in my seat.
It's really great when planes take-off. |
Even the €10 food vouchers they provided us with didn't help. Their back-up plan was to fly a plane out from Berlin to pick us up and take us to Bristol seemed like it wasn't going to do much but eat up a lot more time.
But still I maintained some glimmer of hope: I could go and still see the fest, check out the evening shows, see the friends, and maybe do the workshop tomorrow, or something? It seemed like a perfectly reasonable idea to me.
Finally, after about five hours at Schiphol I managed to talk to Andy in Bristol. We agreed that maybe it just wasn't meant to be this time. Perhaps it should've been apparent to me earlier, but I am far too great a rationaliser for that to have sunk in so easily.
Regardless, I'll be at next year's fest, and hopefully I can get out to Bristol for a weekend intensive in the meantime.
Comforted by the thought I spent my food vouchers on a very cheap meal and a very expensive coffee and came home.
And my Saturday evening turned out much better than my Saturday morning. Chiara was happy to see me return home much earlier than expected. We had Thai food and watched Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol.
The stakes for the MI team were higher, but on Saturday morning I knew just how Ethan Hunt felt; sometimes things just aren't going your way, no matter how well you prepare. Unfortunately, I lacked the tech, expertise, and crack team of highly-trained specialists to help me achieve my mission.
Note: I wrote an email to easyJet requesting a refund. And according to the reply from customer service, it's already been done.
So I can spend that on my next flight to Bristol.

What to Expect During an Ultrasound of a Muscle, Tendon, Ligament or Joint
For most ultrasounds of the musculoskeletal system, you are seated on an examination table or a swivel chair. In other cases, you are positioned lying face-up on an examination table that can be tilted or moved.
A clear water-based gel is applied to the area of the body being studied to help the transducer make secure contact with the body and eliminate air pockets between the transducer and the skin. The sonographer (ultrasound technologist) then presses the transducer firmly against the skin and sweeps it over the area of interest.
The sonographer or radiologist is often able to review the ultrasound images in real-time as they are acquired and you can be released immediately. There may be an occasion, however, where you are asked to dress and wait while the ultrasound images are reviewed.
Time Consideration
This ultrasound exam is usually completed within 15-30 minutes.
Other Factors
Most ultrasound examinations are painless, fast and easy.
There is usually no discomfort from pressure as the transducer is pressed against the area being examined.
If scanning is performed over an area of tenderness, you may feel pressure or minor pain from the transducer.
The radiologist or sonographer may ask you to move the extremity being examined or may move it for you to evaluate not only anatomy but also function of a joint, muscle, ligament or tendon.
Once the imaging is complete, the gel will be wiped off your skin.
After an ultrasound exam, you should be able to resume your normal activities within a few hours.
Limitations of a Musculoskeletal Ultrasound
Ultrasound has difficulty penetrating bone and therefore can only see the outer surface of bony structures and not what lies within. For visualizing internal structure of bones or certain joints, other imaging modalities such as MRI are typically used.
Ultrasound has not proven useful in detecting whiplash injuries or other causes of back pain.

it's the content of their policies, which are dogmatic, unrealistic, and pandering. Come to think of it, their tactics are often terrible too. if their policies were better, maybe they wouldn't have to resort to such awful tactics, such as pandering to the lowerst emotions, ignoring reality, repeating falsehoods, red herrings, banking on winning elections by spending money, attempting to rig the process in their favor, and so on.

too simple. when I went to college in the late 70's, I borrowed but the loans were easy to repay, and they were directly from the government no private agencies involved at all. the terms were reasonable, and I paid all my loans off in full within a few years.
college tuition has gone up for a lot of reasons, the main one at public institutions like the U of M being the decrease in government support.
Bottom line, the economy has changed, and the Republicans seem to ignore...
it's a mistake to put McVeigh in the same bag as the Muslim Brotherhood or any other organized Muslim group. well, maybe not .. they're both haters, but McVeigh was part of tiny group very unrepresentative of "Christians" while Al Queda and similar groups can count on official support from 'clerics' and represent a substantial strand of their culture.
that being said, Backmann's approach to just about everything is overly simplistic and completely biased and politicized to the point...
it's funny that this type of intrusive legislation is coming from Republicans. It is very easy to register to vote in Minnesota, in fact it's amazingly easy. that has always bothered me. When I lived in a small Massachusetts town thirty years ago, i had to register to vote by coming in to the city hall and signing my name in a book. then they could compare my signature when I voted. Now, in a small Minnesota town, i sign in a book but there is no verification other than showing some ID...

Thanks Nikita, I understand the reason for the edit decline. Burrowes' memorials are tricky!
The house she lived in is still standing as a museum & is rumored to be haunted.
"Burrowes Mansion" in Matawan...there's something really spooky about it. It is absolutely gorgeous, but I won't go inside it or even on the lawn anymore because it scared me so much!

I don't remember who I had given as David's father, but on my family tree I also have his father as Samuel 1696 - 1777. David is my 6th Great Grandfather on my Great Great Grandmother Esther's side of the family. Thanks for correcting my mistake. I guess it was one of those senior moments. Cheryl

My craftsman 1/2 HP garage door will start down first then go up. Even if the door is down to start with. I can see where one sensor light is green but the second is a steady yellow. Is this an indication of a problem with the sensors? |
Follow-Up Postings:
We have a Model 139.53525SRT 1/2 HP . We recently had the springs replaced, had been working ok. We have had the partial opening then going back up with the light flickering situation, which I guess was an optical sensor issue. Most recently, occasionally the door was going down too far and bouncing back open. Now it simply buzzes when you hit the opener, nothing moves, the buzz pauses briefly and a second buzz happens again and nothing moves. It seems to me we had this happen a few years ago, too, and we got it going again, but we can't remember what it was. Seems playing with the sensors, lubricating the rails or flicking the switches have gotten going again in the past. Warmer weather helps, too. Suggestions welcome. Haven't looked up in the gear / sprocket area too close yet. We have the manual ... seems overtravel might be an issue / jammed into stop bolts it suggests |
Hi dd, look closely 4 a flickering receiver, or one that flickers while th edoor is closing. Only takes one flicker from loose rail or sensor mount to reverse door. |

Whenever possible, be available to answer homework questions. Try doing a problem or two together, then watch as your child tries the next one. Let's face it: You're a busy parent with a lot going on — dinner on the stove, a mile-long to-do list, and maybe a wild preschooler in the mix — but remind your student (and yourself) that school work is a top priority, and you're always around to answer questions or look over her work.

Haida man remembers abuse at Indian day school
When the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada visits Vancouver from September 18 to 21, it will stimulate a great deal of discussion about Indian residential schools.
That's because the TRC's mandate includes promoting public education about this issue and providing "a holistic, culturally appropriate and safe setting for former students, their families and communities as they come forward" to share stories.
However, the commission is not required to delve into the experiences of students who attended Indian day schools, which were located near First Nations reserves. That's because the day schools were not included in the settlement agreement reached between the Assembly of First Nations, the federal government, and various churches to bring an end to numerous lawsuits arising from abuse in residential schools.
This concerns Andy Wilson, a member of the Haida Nation who attended an Indian day school on Haida Gwaii. In an interview at the Georgia Straight office, he described how he and fellow First Nations students were beaten and strapped for speaking their language and expressing their culture at the school, which was operated by the United Church of Canada.
"We weren't allowed to speak Haida, not even mention a word in Haida," Wilson said. "We weren't allowed to draw. We weren't allowed to sing and dance. We weren't allowed to talk about anything about Haida culture."
And if they disobeyed, Wilson said that they were "whipped across the face" and sometimes "whipped across the back".
"This was happening throughout my kindergarten, Grade 1, 2, and 3," he recalled. "When I went home to tell my parents what had happened to me, they just told me I had to listen to what the teachers were doing, were telling us, [even when they] were telling us not to speak Haida."
Wilson, who now lives on the Musqueam reserve, said that he didn't understand why his parents didn't defend him. Only after he grew up did he realize that if his parents had spoken out, they could have been arrested by the RCMP. He said all the other aboriginal students in his school had a similar experience.
"I lost that connection with my parents, my grandparents, my great-grandparents," he stated. "I lost my whole culture for a while. I think it's coming back slowly, and I've worked really hard at that."
He acknowledged overcoming struggles with alcohol and drug addiction. "It was a long time that I just felt like I didn't belong anywhere."
Wilson spent two decades looking after the Bill Reid canoe on Haida Gwaii. In this position, he reconnected with his culture and appeared in several documentaries. He moved to Vancouver when his wife enrolled in a UBC master's program.
He said that there are programs for residential-school survivors, but very little for those who went through Indian day schools. "We still haven't gotten to the point where we're openly talking about it," he suggested. "Sometimes, I feel anger and I feel hurt, and my kids want to know why. I try to tell them about what it was like for me to grow up in Indian day school."
The Manitoba-based Joan Jack Law Office has launched a class-action lawsuit on behalf of aboriginal day-school students. Earlier this month, the Ottawa Citizen reported that the firm has received more than 10,000 forms from people in Western Canada who want to be part of the lawsuit.
Sometimes, nonaboriginal callers to radio talk shows liken the abuse meted out to aboriginal students to the strappings they received before corporal punishment was outlawed in B.C.
Wilson, however, took exception to that analogy.
"They were getting strapped for breaking a rule in school," he said. "We were getting strapped for being Haida. We were getting whipped for talking our language, trying to maintain our culture.…We weren't getting punished. We were getting beaten and tortured."
Sad really--it was a different era--I love this Country
Truth and reconciliation; Thank you Rev. Tutu
A new era can begin.
Our family have F.N. friends and have had for years. No-one insults the F.N. in any of our houses. They come to our family reunions. They are welcome to come everywhere we go, and every party we have.
I support the F.N. in which ever way I can. I sign petitions, attend rallies. I support the F.N. on their fight to save their food sources from the Enbridge pipeline. I recognize Chief Spence is speaking for all of us. I have been fighting for her too.
F.N. parents, sent their sons to war, right alongside my own brothers. I am livid at Harper, for his total disrespect towards the F.N. people. They deserve his help, not his hate. F.N. deserve decent homes. Their kids deserve the same breaks, our kids have. People have to step up the plate and support the F.N. people.
The collective caucasian guilt is profound
May your God bless the efforts being made to right the ship
Please; don't use the word "Hate" lightly
[middle east/N.Ireland]
My God---I'm actually defending Harper

You could not exist without touch. From the moment of your birth to the final minutes of your life, touch is one basic human need for which everyone hungers. It is an essential force that shapes and molds your personality, as well as how you present yourself in the world.
Through physical touch, a variety of emotions and reactions is conveyed and elicited. There are many forms of touch—a friendly handshake, a loving pat on the cheek or even a punch that delivers pain and discomfort.
Touching someone begins when you enter into their presence. You can tell immediately whether you are welcome or are perceived as an intrusion. You either are enveloped by the warmth of closeness and familiarity or are blocked by a wall of coldness.
Although touch offers a richly detailed and almost infinite range of sensations, some of the most frequent types include the following.
Loving and/or intimate. Hand-holding, hugs, kisses or an arm draped across your shoulders all are types of touch that bring out feelings of fondness, desire, tenderness, passion and belonging.

Leaving a large inheritance can raise concerns
A report by Barclays Wealth, 'The Transfer of Trust: Wealth and Succession in a Changing World', has found that 35% of high net worth individuals across the world do not trust the next generation to look after their inheritance.
Barclays Wealth surveyed over 2,000 high net worth individuals to find out their thoughts and attitudes regarding wealth transfer and succession planning.
The report reveals that the wealthy in developed countries have less confidence in the ability of their children to look after their wealth than those in developing countries. It also found that just under 30% of respondents thought that receiving a large inheritance can place an 'unnecessary burden' on their children.
Catherine Grum, Director, Wealth Advisory, Barclays Wealth, said: "It is clear that with wealth comes an increasing complexity of choice, and in some cases this can result in concerns about trust and conflict when considering the intergenerational transfer of wealth. Understanding options for succession planning in advance, and seeking professional advice can help address these fears and provide confidence that your wealth will be wisely managed in the future."

This should go down well. All future EA releases will support micro-transactions, chief financial officer Blake Jorgensen has told audiences at the Morgan Stanley Technology, Media, and Telecom Conference, via Develop.
Those who took umbrage at Dead Space 3's micro-payments for weapons won't be amused, probably - there was much online self-congratulation when fans unearthed an exploit which allows for the infinite generation of resources, a practice one intellectual property expert likened to theft.
As somebody who completed Dead Space 3 without once being bothered or tempted by the prospect of paying extra, I'm prepared to give EA the benefit of the doubt. Still, these are murky waters. Micro-transactions often arouse the dreaded spectre of "pay to win", and even those that balance their offerings appropriately run the risk of feeling bitty, designed in such a way as to be easily broken off into separately sold pieces.
"We are building into all of our games the ability to pay for things along the way; to get to a higher level," Jorgensen declared, "And consumers are enjoying and embracing that way of business."
The publisher is so wed to the model that it'll handle micro-transaction systems internally from now on, under the guidance of chief technology officer Rajat Taneja. "If you're doing microtransactions and you're processing credit cards for every one of those microtransactions you'll get eaten alive. And so Rajat's team has built an amazing backend to manage that and manage that much more profitably. We've outsourced a lot of that stuff historically; we're bringing that all in-house now."

WHITEFISH- The first commercial cross laminated timber building in the United States is popping up in Whitefish and Smartwoods of Whitefish is hoping their method of building structures will catch on in North America.
Whitefish is the first town in America to see this technology driven system that delivers a prefabricated solid wood wall building faster, more efficiently and without any solid waste. It's called cross laminated timber and is pre-manufactured wood, held together with bolts, to construct buildings in a timely, cost-efficient, sustainable manner.
"We think it's a very important project because it sort of marks the advent of changing not only how we process wood, but how we design and engineer buildings in this country." Smartwoods founder and director Pete Kobelt explained.
Smartwoods of Whitefish is adopting the innovative timber system that is often seen in Europe. But, only a few buildings of its kind have been produced in North America and Whitefish is setting the stage for the first cross laminated building in the United States.
"This CLT system of cross laminated timber can be used for floors, walls, roofs, anything that a building requires," Kobelt told us.
The wood is prefabricated to excel assembly time and the installation process includes the large format, solid wood walls to be put in place with a crane.
"It's an entirely different technique than shipping stacks of sticks, stud lumber and banging nails together. Theres 7,500 screws holding this building together rather than any nails which also is great because if you ever wanted to rebuild, remodel or grow you can pull screws out, pull panels out, add new ones and grow," said Kobelt.
Smartwoods hopes to set up a manufacturing facility in Columbia Falls to begin building more cross laminated timber.
Wednesday is Day 3 of the Smartwoods main office being built at First and Spokane in Whitefish and Kobelt says the building will be finished on Day 5.

There is zero reason to send two bot at start. Two champions cannot pick up a kill under a tower against a single defender that early -- not enough damage. Any decent defender will be able to hold bot against two champs. It makes sense to send a squishy ranged who needs farm or an AP carry down there anyway while the good early-game champs rush top. Sending two bot only means that you lose a 3v4 at top and have an uphill fight two get 3 points.
What I've noticed thus far is that whomever top belongs to first has little bearing on the direction or the outcome of the game.
Already seen a team send 4 bot to counter our 4 top and they steamrolled our guy at bot.
I completely disagree with "4 top 1 bot". It all depends entirely on both teams; you can usually discern which team is going to win a top fight, or get their first. You're highly unlikely to be able to tower-dive people 4on4 at top if they have already captured the point. Either way, friends and I have been sending 3 top and 1 bottom. the last person will either rush to cross-road at top and try to distract or defend the top point from the enemy team while their teammates capture or, more likely because we haven't been using the fastest champions and have been against a Rammus in most games, the last person will help bottom capture his point and then head to the enemy's top-middle point (drill or refinery, depending on which side you are on) going through the bottom haste. This forces them to either send one or two people back, allowing the three sent to top to capture it or to lose a point and their lead. This is best done with a champion, with decent movement speed, that is capable of fending off at least one person comfortably and having the Garrison summoner spell (eg; Shaco, Teemo, Udyr)
FWIW I've found that playing Heimer or Urgot bot can win games as long as your team isnt ******ed. You stay bot basically all game and push the **** out of it, nobody can outlane heimer or urgot that early basically and you either cap their tower or one person comes and ganks their defender and you cap it. If they send someone bot you can defend all day long with exhaust and garrison and then its 3v4 top and easy teamfight win or splitpush win. But it all relies on your team realizing their advantage top, usually they just rage that you haven't left bot when they dont realize the strategic impact of an un-pushable, pressured bot lane.

3 top, 1 bottom, 1 backdooring enemy mid
At level four and ~1.3k gold worth of items, not many champs can survive a 2v1 away from an active turret. So, I send 2 bot. 1 to Push and 1 to patrol and support. Now my bottom guy is gathering extra gold and esp, while your guy is stuck hugging his turret. My bot guy takes his time, and gathers a large wave. Now you have to send two bot to defend, or lose the point. My patrol guy and map awareness are all over this. The three sent to top can push and take windmill if you send two, while we retreat. Suddenly, you lose control of the whole map. This is, of course, very ideal. However, look at the basic situation I put you in. You must choose which point gets the high risk of falling. I have put myself in little danger, since 3 can easily defend against 4 at a tower if necessary and 2 can easily control the bottom of the map versus 1. In Chess, it is called a fork. This one position can flip the games momentum, and is one of the best positions to have in Chess. A fork position on the Scar has the same effect. I know this works, because I do it every game 4 get sent top. Every game, my team gains the momentum, unless the enemy halts its momentum early. 4 top 1 bot is incredibly weak early in the game. Later in the game, such dense grouping just gets you ninja'd over and over again. 4 top 1 bot is not a good strategy.
2 top, 1 bot, 2 roaming seems like it would be just as efficient a tactic.

Future CFOs will no longer build a career vertically through the finance organisation, but will need deeper business acumen balanced with core finance understanding gained from a broader business career, according to a new report from ACCA and IMA (Institute of Management Accountants). Nearly 750 CFOs from across the world were surveyed for the Future Pathways to Financial Leadership report. Many had taken classic finance career paths and most had moved up to the CFO role from a position as financial controller. Almost 50% had six or more finance roles within their career, but less than half (40%) had taken a role outside the finance function in their careers...Read More

I should say that I value wildflowers highly, and the aster that is seen to the right of the photo, was a very successful transplant from a waste area. Plantain, too, is cultivated.
The yard was a blank upon move-in in April. I installed the garden in June, knowing it is best to wait to see what plants may have appeared. Undoubtedly, there will be additional surprises this season. This is the garden as it was in September.

I suggest vines on a trellis for blocking the view. Pea, Moonflower, Morning Glory, or Passionfruit are my faves. None of those will survive your winter, but they grow fast in spring and make a great hedge between neighbors.

I have a new Pacific Energy fireplace insert for burning wood located in my open floor plan basement. We are hoping it will help heat the upstairs both by simple radiation (the basement ceiling/upstairs floor is unfinished and the door at the top of the stairs remains open) and by prewarming the furnace air entering the cold air returns located near it.
My question regards determining the safe proximity of electronics to this insert- television/stereo/Tivo's and so on. How hot will it get? Can a television be right beside the fireplace? Look closely and you can see the insert behind all that 'moving in' jumble. Can the TV stay this close?
Here is a link that might be useful: Pacific Energy Insert

It looks kinda close to me. Measure the distance from the side of the unit to the side of the TV. Depending on the BTU output, most manufactures look for 20-24" of clearence to a combustible material. |

MassBio Applauds Senate Introduction of Life Sciences Jobs and Investment Act
Joins Coalition Effort to Create Jobs and Promote Investment in Life Sciences
MassBio is pleased to support legislation filed last week that will provide tax incentives for small and mid-sized businesses to invest in life sciences research and development on a targeted basis. The Life Sciences Jobs and Investment Act of 2010 (S. 4018), introduced by U.S. Senator Robert Casey (D-PA), provides an opportunity to enhance medical innovation, life sciences education and job creation in the United States. Companion legislation (H.R. 6165) was introduced in the House in September.
The legislation offers businesses two opportunities to create incentives for investment in life sciences research and development. Businesses will either have access to additional tax credits for life sciences research and development or tax advantages to make it more attractive for them to bring their foreign investments back to the U.S.
The Life Sciences Jobs and Investment Act will allow companies to:
- Hire additional scientists, researchers, and comparable personnel engaged in life sciences research in the U.S.;
- Make new investments in research at American universities and post-graduate institutions, state-sponsored incubators, and comparable scientific organizations; and
- Investing in new laboratory and related life sciences research facilities in the U.S.
The legislation would have an especially important impact in Massachusetts, where more than 46,000 people are employed in the life sciences industry and contribute more than $4 billion in payroll dollars to the state's economy. However, as the unemployment rate in Massachusetts has reached 8.1 percent, adding additional jobs to the life sciences sector is a critical way to rebuild the economy and keep the Commonwealth at the forefront of innovation.
American companies invest globally primarily to expand markets, attract talent, and otherwise compete in a global marketplace. These competitive factors, coupled with the high U.S. tax rate, have caused an estimated trillion dollars in foreign earnings to remain abroad, often as "permanently reinvested" earnings.
"In the aftermath of the liquidity crises and Great Recession of 2008 and 2009, it is essential that the U.S. pursue policies that allow -- even if only on a temporary basis -- the redeployment of overseas earnings to address domestic capital needs," said David Jory, spokesperson for the Life Sciences Investment Act Coalition. "We should pursue an economic strategy that makes it more attractive for some capital now invested abroad to be invested domestically, provided that the capital is invested in specific projects, such as life sciences jobs, research, and infrastructure, and only if it is paid from funds that are otherwise permanently invested abroad."
The Life Sciences Jobs and Investment Act of 2010 would provide access in the U.S. to capital otherwise unavailable, and would direct it to targeted activities in life sciences that are known to be important to the future success of our nation.
"This legislation will allow Massachusetts' most innovative companies and research institutions to continue to do the cutting-edge research and development we are best known for," said Robert K. Coughlin, President & CEO of MassBio. "We look forward to working with members of the Massachusetts delegation and other stakeholders to build the coalition of support."
Just as a domestic tax policy that provides investment incentives is a critical factor in the success of the biopharmaceutical industry, an equally important factor is ensuring the availability of an educated, skilled workforce that will sustain a competitive and robust bioscience cluster over the long term. The U.S. has established itself as a leader in the life sciences through the successful collaboration between industry and institutions of higher learning, including universities, academic medical centers, medical research centers, and others. The U.S. must continue to encourage this collaboration and not stand idle while our foreign competitors in the life sciences continue to dedicate financial resources to such arrangements. A domestic tax policy that provides investment incentives for collaborative agreements between life science companies and universities will help develop the future of an educated, science-based workforce.

Home › About TU › News, Events and Publications › University News › U.S. Cyber Command chief praises TU
Friday, August 19, 2011
Gen. Keith Alexander says iSec, Cyber Corps among nation's best programs
Gen. Keith B. Alexander, commander of U.S. Cyber Command and director of the National Security Agency, praised The University of Tulsa for being one of the nation's top schools for cybersecurity programs during a recent campus stop. "I am really impressed with how the community and the university have come together to support the important work being done here," he said. "TU is recognized as one of the top schools in the nation by the leading experts in cybersecurity." During his visit, he toured TU campus information security facilities, interacted with students and faculty and met with university leaders, including President Steadman Upham. Afterward, he made comments to students, faculty and community members during a luncheon at the Allen Chapman Activity Center on the topic of the importance of cybersecurity as a component of national defense. Alexander praised the support of both the administration and community members who have bolstered TU's cybersecurity initiatives. He noted this support has helped prepare TU students to be the next generation of information security leaders. The University of Tulsa has long been a pioneer in the area of information security, thanks to the efforts of faculty who have built programs that combine academic rigor with real-world problem solving. As a result, TU students and faculty are working on a wide range of security issues including protecting the nation's power grid, using digital forensics for criminal investigations, securing electronic commerce, and assisting with other highly sensitive work that makes an important contribution to the nation's security. TU has distinguished itself through programs such as Cyber Corps and the Institute for Information Security, which both have quietly developed future leaders in this discipline while strengthening TU's reputation within this important industry. In fact, TU has been named a lead school for the National Science Foundation's Cyber Corps program, and TU is one of only two schools selected by the National Security Agency as a training facility for other university faculty. Alexander serves as commander for U.S. Cyber Command (USCYBERCOM) and director of the National Security Agency/chief of Central Security Service (NSA/CSS) at Fort George G. Meade, Md. U.S. Cyber Command is responsible for protecting Department of Defense computer networks while the NSA/CSS is a Defense agency providing national foreign intelligence, combat support and U.S. national security information system protection with civilian and military personnel stationed worldwide.

jacki, these sound really good and I have a ton of blueberries in my freezer. I pick at a local u-pick for 70 cents a pound and always manage to pick 40 or 50 pounds throughout the season. I'll definitely be making these, my granddaughter would love them. Dessert for breakfast, what a perfect idea! Annie |
? Are these like a soft cookie, or like the more solid bars that people take with them to munch for breakfast? |
- Posted by jackiwolfe (My Page) on Tue, Jan 30, 07 at 20:32
they appear to be almost like coffee cake. I can't say that they are similar in taste, but the consistency would probably be about the same. If you go to the link provided, the creator of the recipe has written a lot about them and how they came to be :) |
Totally missed that! Can I blame having the Flu? |

-- After two years at the University of Georgia, Seacrest transferred to Santa Monica College as a business major. He left a year before graduating to pursue his radio career.
-- Larry King picked Seacrest, the voice of L.A.'s No. 1 afternoon radio show, to fill in as host (and choose the guest) for his CNN show last October. Seacrest interviewed Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey.
