In "Love Connects Us," a Tapestry of Faith program
Participants make fringed rugs in the style of the knotted rugs made by the child laborers who inspired Craig Keilburger to work for children's rights.
Using the sample you have made, explain and demonstrate how children will make the rugs. Invite them to get started.
Encourage children to complete their pattern using marker dots. Tell them each dot represents a knot a child laborer might tie in an actual carpet. They may tire of making dots and choose to draw lines or blocks of color. This is fine, but point out that people making the actual rugs do not have this option.
As they work, suggest the children imagine creating their rug pattern with thousands of tiny knots, rather than simply drawing. Engage discussion with these questions:
Watch the time. Give children a heads up when you think they ought to be switching to the fringe-making part of this activity in order to complete the rug in the time allotted.
Note: This activity intentionally offers children a taste of the work some children are compelled to do in parts of the world. A bit of frustration can enhance a child's learning experience, but do not allow any particular child to become personally discouraged. If an aspect of this project appears difficult for a child, quickly offer help.
Children may indeed need and want more time to finish their rugs. When it is time to stop this activity, let the group know where they may leave uncompleted rugs and when they will have the opportunity to finish them.
Optional: You may wish to invite a volunteer to attach their rug to the group's Rainbow Wall hanging, now or during the Closing.
Directions for Patterned, Fringed Rugs
Be ready to help children with manual dexterity limitations, especially with tying the knots of the fringe.

With the trademark wisdom, humor, and honesty that made Anne Lamott's book on faith Traveling Mercies a runaway bestseller, Plan B is a spiritual antidote to anxiety and despair in our increasingly fraught times.
Plan B finds Lamott wrestling with mid-life hormones and weight gain while parenting Sam, now a teenager with his own set of raging hormones. Her observations cover everything from starting a Sunday school to grief over the death of her beloved dog, Sadie; lamenting the war to bitterness over her relationship with her now-departed mother.
As she tugs and pokes out the knots in a slender gold chain necklace, it becomes a metaphor for letting go and learning to forgive. "…any willingness to let go inevitably comes from pain; and the desire to change changes you, and jiggles the spirit, gets to it somehow, to the deepest, hardest, most ruined parts." Its her willingness to show us the knotted-up, "ruined parts" of her life that make this collection of sometimes uneven essays so compelling.
"Everything feels crazy," writes Lamott, adding, "But on small patches of earth all over, I can see just as much messy mercy and grace as ever…." Lamotts essays will serve as reminders to readers of the patches of messy mercy and grace in a chaotic world.--Cindy Crosby

A star studded affair for a good cause. That was the scene in San Simeon today. Hundreds of cyclists took a 100-mile ride down the Pacific Coast Highway from Carmel to San Simeon in support of Best Buddies International. The non-profit helps people with intellecutal and developmental disabilities. Several celebrities turned out for the event including actors Rob Lowe, David Hasselhoff, and Olympic gold medalist Carl Lewis.
"Best Buddies is about friendship. Everyone has a friend, so know what somebody with intellectual disabilities feels like when they don't have a friend," Lewis said.
"I really want the takeaway to be, 'Wow! This population is out there and wow, they're really talented and gifted and I never really knew that before but now I do,'" said Best Buddies International Founder Anthony Shriver.
Audi was the title sponsor for the event, which raised around $4 million.

Interest perked in May when Bradley County Republicans and Democrats selected nominees from within their own primaries. Some three months later, several head-to-head clashes are taking the spotlight in local contests while many — because of a lack of Democratic candidates — are uncontested.
But bringing even more excitement to the political arena is the addition of state primaries that include some familiar offices like governor, U.S. Senate, U.S. House of Representatives, Tennessee Legislature seats in Districts 22 and 24 of the state House and District 9 of the state Senate, and of course state executive committeemen and committeewomen for both the Dems and GOP partisans.
Too, the state primary ballot includes a flurry of chances to vote for or against several judge retentions.
For the record, the official — or conventional — Election Day is Thursday, Aug. 7. Thousands of Bradley County voters still prefer visiting their polling places on this day to mark their ballots.
But thousands more like the concept of early voting. Those who vote early prefer the convenience of selecting the day of the week, and the time of day, that they will visit the polls.
In the May elections, 5,350 cast ballots on Election Day in Bradley County; another 7,892 voted early or via the absentee process.
Early voting for these August elections began Friday and will continue through Saturday, Aug. 2. Three voting satellite sites are again being used for the convenience of early voters: the Bradley County Election Commission Office in the Courthouse Annex, the Bradley Square Mall (aka the North Satellite) in Suite 400 which is the old Regis Hair Salon between JCPenney and the eBay store, and the BI-LO Shopping Center (the South Satellite) on McGrady Drive and APD-40. In the BI-LO parking lot, voters will find the familiar trailer that is again being used as the mobile voting site.
Hours for early voting at the three sites are 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday. Election Day (Aug. 7) hours will be 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
When early voting came along several years ago, it should have eliminated the excuse by some nonvoters who claimed they didn't have time to get to their respective polling places on Election Day. Work demands, limited lunch breaks and time-killing traffic congestion were all cited as reasons they couldn't get to their respective polls. The lack of available time, especially in some jobs, is a legitimate stumbling block to visiting polls on any single, specific day.
But early voting changed — or at least, it should have changed — all that. Yet, apparently it didn't.
In the May elections including early and Election Day voting, a paltry 20 percent (actually, only 19.95 percent) of registered voters in Bradley County took the time to mark a ballot.
That's a head-scratcher.
Analysts can analyze and interpreters can interpret these low turnouts all they want. To their credit, they've uncovered some credible answers. What they're still short on is solutions.
So are we.
That's why when we encourage voting — such as we are now — we offer just a handful of basic reasons why we believe people should vote.
But each bears repeating.
One, it's American.
Two, Americans have died on battlefields for 238 years to protect this precious right.
Three, when voters fail to show up democracy will fail to stay put.
Four, in the absence of democracy basic freedoms long enjoyed, and too often taken for granted by the people, could become lost to the people.
And for those still not convinced, we offer No. 5. It's as compelling as any reason we know. Simply stated, voting is the right thing to do.
Some might argue our point.
To those, we would argue this.
Go ahead. Take the vote away. And let's see what happens. We suspect America's new normal won't be the America any of us had envisioned ... or wanted.
Ours is not a perfect system. But when compared to the rest, democracy is a mighty pretty lady.
And her beauty is founded upon this: THE VOTE.

My son Drake was 2 years, 1 month and 12 days old when the doctors told us that he had cancer. After an inconclusive bone marrow biopsy, many blood test and doctors around the United States they concluded that Drake has a rare form of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).
Because of the support that CureSearch provides to the physicians working around the clock to help diagnosis and treat all kids with cancer, they (the physicians) were able to indicate that Drake's type of leukemia is a Mature B-cell type. He unfortunately did not qualify for a clinical trial but the doctors continue to study Drake's leukemia to help find a cure. What we have learned during this process is that only 1% of the population according to research/publications has been diagnosed with Drake's type of leukemia. That is, it is so rare there are not many studies published to indicate a specific treatment approach.
Drake was started on a treatment approach for B-cell type leukemia and modified to meet his specific needs. At this time, we have eliminated one of the intense portions of his treatment due to the research that has developed over the past year indicating that it has done more harm to the child than beat cancer. We have been so grateful for a chance and now can say we are on our way to a cure story. Drake's bone marrow has gone into remission and he has finished his months of intense chemotherapy.
Starting June 26, 2012 he will begin his journey of maintenance and on November 29, 2014 we are hoping to say we have beat cancer and return to the life we had before treatment.
Thank you CureSearch for all you have done, we are rewarded again with the power of research and success to have many more days to spend with our little one. -Amanda Hegy

Auto Racing: Rita Fields having successful run as car owner at Illiana Speedway

Updated: August 13, 2013 6:36AM
There's no place Rita Fields would rather be than behind the wheel of a late-model race car. But she's proving to be successful as a car owner this season at Illiana Speedway.
On June 29, Ryan Moore drove Fields' No. 88 Monte Carlo turbo stock to a qualifying track record time of 17.607. Moore is third in points in the turbo stox class at Illiana.
Fields, who has driven in various divisions at Illiana since 2007, is waiting to make her 2013 debut in her No. 5 that's being prepared by Tony D'Ambrose.
"It's kind of strange, honestly, not being behind the wheel," Fields said. "But in the same sense it's given me a different perspective as well.
"I'm learning a lot more, taking the driver's input and watching the car go around from my perspective vs. his perspective. It's totally different, actually, a different world."
Fields also owns another 88 street stock that last season was piloted by Shaun Wiltjer. That car, when finished, may be ticketed for Grundy with Logan Love behind the wheel, and Illiana with David Cressler as the driver.
Fields, who finished 10th in late-model points at Illiana in 2012, has been taking her time in refurbishing her No. 5.
"Tony's working on it," she said. "He's had quite a full shop all season long. I told him to take his time, get it right.
"Sometimes when you have the season like I did last year at the start, you just kind of need to step back, look from the outside, regroup and go back at it again."
Fields had an unbelievable string of bad luck at the start of '12, being unable to finish her first six races because of wrecks.
"It was mostly by the same drivers," she said. "It kind of put a bad taste in my mouth a little bit. It's rough when you have to spend that much money back to back. It wasn't fun at that point.
"I was really surprised to finish 10th in points, with the bad luck we had at the start. But we'll put everything together."
Wild ride I
There are plenty of uncomfortable feelings a driver can encounter during a race. But Jack Kalwasinski had one of the worst when he wheeled his No. 99 into Turn 3 on lap 24 of Saturday's late-model feature race at Illiana.
"I had brakes going in 1 and 2 and went down the backstretch," Kalwasinski said. "Going into 3 I did my normal thing and the brake pedal went to the floor. I tried to pump them up a little bit and slid the car as much as I could, but it just snapped around."
Kalwasinski went driver's side into the wall. After the car came to a grinding stop back in the groove, the yellow was thrown. Kalwasinski pulled down his window net, but all was not exactly OK inside the car.
"My (left) elbow got in between the roll bar padding and I think I hit the door plate," said Kalwasinski, who was treated by the ambulance crew but didn't go for X-rays until later. "I guess I should invest in a better pad for the left side."
Fortunately, Kalwasinski's seat and harness did their jobs and he suffered no head injuries. X-rays shows his elbow was bruised, but not broken. The car wasn't so lucky.
"I think it's pretty wrecked," Kalwasinski said. "It'll have to go to Port City to get looked at. Hopefully, in a month we'll get back out."
Wild ride II
Grundy County pure stocks points leader Dan Schmeissing is used to watching everything in front of, alongside of and behind him. But Friday, he had to deal with a hazard from above.
During a heat race, Schmeissing was running in front of the battling duo of Josh Hart and Austin Blackwell. After Blackwell and Hart had contact, all sorts of havoc ensued.
"I was stuck on the outside," Schmeissing said. "Blackwell got into Josh Hart a little bit and Josh kind of overcorrected and came across my nose. When he came across my nose, he actually collected me with him."
Hart became airborne and rolled. At that point running behind him, Schmeissing drove underneath Hart. Hart's 2,600-pound No. 15 Honda Prelude flipped over and landed on top of the No. 12 Prelude of Schmeissing.
Schmeissing quickly unstrapped and got out of his car. It wasn't to argue.
"I saw some liquids coming down on my windshield and it spooked me out," Schmeissing said. "It was whatever was coming out of his motor, a little bit of everything, I think.
"Talking with a bunch of guys who have rolled their cars before, maybe we watched too many of the 'Final Destination' movies, but a lot of guys say the first thing they think of is that the car is going to blow up."
No cars blew up. The roll cages held up. Both drivers were OK. Schmeissing was able to get his No. 12 back on the track later in the night to collect some feature points.
This just in
The Musgrave Memorial Twin-56s for late-models at Illiana Speedway that was rained out June 15 has been rescheduled for Aug. 24.

I am searching for any info on my McClanahans. The only info I have was recently given to me by my great aunt (who I recently found)...she is now 95 years old and her memory is fading so some of this info may be incorrect. My great grandmother was Nannie Strater McClanahan 1876 - 1948. I would love to know where her middle name came from, sounds more like a last name. She was born and raised in VA but I don't know where she is buried. Her parents were David S McClanahan and Fannie A Pace. I have a 1900 census with them on it, at the time they were living in Pearisburg, Giles Co, Va. I have no other info except that. And my great aunt said that her grandmother's name was Enge, but that's all she remembers. She doesn't remember which grandmother. ANY info would be appreciated! Thanks, Sandy Notify Administrator about this message?

Slim styles—from cigarette-leg jeans to body-con dresses—aren't going away any time soon. But, thanks to recent collections by fashion's top influentials, a fuller, more feminine silhouette has emerged. Reminiscent of the way women dressed in the late 50s and early 60s, this new shape is a celebration of womanly curves, and, ultimately, sex appeal. Stylish and daring New Yorkers embraced circle silhouette in the form of swingy dresses and skirts with a demure, yet edgy feel. Keep accessories simple—chic sunglasses and clutch are all you need to round out the look.

Hebrew Names Version (HNV) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Now this is the history of the generations of the sons of Noach and of Shem, Ham, and Yefet. Sons were born to them after the flood. | 1 This is the account of Shem, Ham and Japheth, Noah's sons, who themselves had sons after the flood. |
2 The sons of Yefet: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Yavan, Tuval, Meshekh, and Tiras. | 2 The sons of Japheth: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech and Tiras. |
3 The sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, Rifat, and Togarmah. | 3 The sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, Riphath and Togarmah. |
4 The sons of Yavan: Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim. | 4 The sons of Javan: Elishah, Tarshish, the Kittim and the Rodanim. |
5 Of these were the isles of the nations divided in their lands, everyone after his language, after their families, in their nations. | 5 (From these the maritime peoples spread out into their territories by their clans within their nations, each with its own language.) |
6 The sons of Ham: Kush, Mitzrayim, Put, and Kana`an. | 6 The sons of Ham: Cush, Mizraim, Put and Canaan. |
7 The sons of Kush: Seva, Havilah, Savtah, Ra`mah, and Savtekha. The sons of Ra`mah: Sheva and Dedan. | 7 The sons of Cush: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah and Sabteca. The sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan. |
8 Kush became the father of Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in the eretz. | 8 Cush was the father of Nimrod, who grew to be a mighty warrior on the earth. |
9 He was a mighty hunter before the LORD. Therefore it is said, "Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the LORD." | 9 He was a mighty hunter before the LORD; that is why it is said, "Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before the LORD." |
10 The beginning of his kingdom was Bavel, Erekh, Akkad, and Kalneh, in the land of Shin`ar. | 10 The first centers of his kingdom were Babylon, Erech, Akkad and Calneh, in Shinar. |
11 Out of that land he went forth into Ashshur, and built Nineveh, Rechovot-Ir, Kelach, | 11 From that land he went to Assyria, where he built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah |
12 and Resen between Nineveh and Kelach (the same is the great city). | 12 and Resen, which is between Nineveh and Calah; that is the great city. |
13 Mitzrayim became the father of Ludim, Anamim, Lehavim, Naftuchim, | 13 Mizraim was the father of the Ludites, Anamites, Lehabites, Naphtuhites, |
14 Patrusim, Kasluchim (which the Pelishtim descended from), and Kaftorim. | 14 Pathrusites, Casluhites (from whom the Philistines came) and Caphtorites. |

17 the Hivvi, the `Arki, the Sini, | 17 Hivites, Arkites, Sinites, |
18 the Arvadi, the Tzemari, and the Hamati. Afterward the families of the Kana`anim were spread abroad. | 18 Arvadites, Zemarites and Hamathites. Later the Canaanite clans scattered |
19 The border of the Kana`anim was from Tzidon, as you go toward Gerar, to `Aza; as you go toward Sedom, `Amorah, Admah, and Tzevoyim, to Lasha. | 19 and the borders of Canaan reached from Sidon toward Gerar as far as Gaza, and then toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha. |
20 These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their languages, in their lands, in their nations. | 20 These are the sons of Ham by their clans and languages, in their territories and nations. |
21 To Shem, the father of all the children of `Ever, the elder brother of Yefet, to him also were children born. | 21 Sons were also born to Shem, whose older brother was Japheth; Shem was the ancestor of all the sons of Eber. |
22 The sons of Shem: `Elam, Ashshur, Arpakhshad, Lud, and Aram. | 22 The sons of Shem: Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud and Aram. |
23 The sons of Aram: `Utz, Hul, Geter, and Mash. | 23 The sons of Aram: Uz, Hul, Gether and Meshech. |
24 Arpakhshad became the father of Shelach. Shelach became the father of `Ever. | 24 Arphaxad was the father of Shelah, and Shelah the father of Eber. |
25 To `Ever were born two sons. The name of the one was Peleg, for in his days was the eretz divided. His brother's name was Yoktan. | 25 Two sons were born to Eber: One was named Peleg, because in his time the earth was divided; his brother was named Joktan. |
26 Yoktan became the father of Almodad, Shelef, Hatzarmavat, Yerach, | 26 Joktan was the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah, |
27 Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah, | 27 Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah, |
28 `Oval, Avima'el, Sheva, | 28 Obal, Abimael, Sheba, |
29 Ofir, Havilah, and Yovav. All these were the sons of Yoktan. | 29 Ophir, Havilah and Jobab. All these were sons of Joktan. |
30 Their dwelling was from Mesha, as you go toward Sefar, the mountain of the east. | 30 The region where they lived stretched from Mesha toward Sephar, in the eastern hill country. |
31 These are the sons of Shem, after their families, after their languages, in their lands, after their nations. | 31 These are the sons of Shem by their clans and languages, in their territories and nations. |
32 These are the families of the sons of Noach, after their generations, in their nations. Of these were the nations divided in the eretz after the flood. | 32 These are the clans of Noah's sons, according to their lines of descent, within their nations. From these the nations spread out over the earth after the flood. |

DOT work will slow traffic on Forest Hills Road this week
Sunday, November 03, 2013
Starting Monday, Nov. 4, the N.C. Department of Transportation will close the inside lanes of both directions of Forest Hills Road between Tarboro Street and Wooten Boulevard in Wilson as part of a three-part project to improve traffic flow through this heavily-traveled area.
The lanes are scheduled to reopen Friday, Nov. 8, weather permitting, with the entire project completed by mid-November.
The lane closures are necessary for crews to construct two concrete islands along Forest Hills Road. One island will approach the intersection at Tarboro Street. The other island will be located south of Walgreens and will allow traffic to turn left onto the road between Walgreens and the shopping center, but traffic on that road will be unable to turn left onto Forest Hills Road.
Message boards will alert drivers to the lane closures. Motorists are advised to expect delays when traveling through this area and are encouraged to allow additional time to reach their destination.
Also on Monday, the traffic signal that was recently installed at the intersection of Forest Hills Road and Wooten Boulevard will be activated on a flash basis.Traffic on Wooten Boulevard will have a flashing red light and traffic on Forest Hills Road will have a flashing yellow light. The signal will be fully activated by the end of next week.
The project also includes the construction of additional left-turn lanes on northbound Forest Hills Road and eastbound Tarboro Street. Crews completed the new turn lanes last week, and all four sides of theintersection now have dual left-turn lanes. Additional lane closures will be scheduled at this intersection when the islands on Forest Hills Road are complete to allow crews to install new traffic signal loops under the pavement.
NCDOT reminds motorists to watch signs for construction information, stay alert and obey the posted speed limit.
For real-time travel information at any time, call 511, visit www.ncdot.gov/travel or follow NCDOT on Twitter at www.ncdot.gov/travel/twitter.

The Seventeen Celeb Beauty Tip!
It's a beauty bonanza! Get your daily dose on all things glam from the experts behind the coolest looks seen on the top celebs, the pages of Seventeen, and more!
By Elizabeth Denton
Dianna Agron's Cool Retro Bob
Who: Dianna Agron
The Expert: Celebrity hair stylist David Stanwell (Twitter: @davestanwell)
The Look: Cool retro bob
The Tip:
1. Prep wet hair with a moisturizing product that will protect strands from heat and humidity. (David used Biosilk Silk Therapy on Dianna's strands.)
2. Dry your hair with a round brush, section by section, smoothing out the hair and turning the ends slightly out. Use a straightener to really kick the ends out.
3. Curl the top section of hair with a large barrel curling iron (David used T3 BodyWaver 1.75" Professional Curling Iron here), and pin the curls in place. Let them set and cool.
4. Remove the pins and run your hands through your hair for added texture. Finish with a hairspray that also provides shine. (David likes Biosilk Finishing Spray).

Because this compact powder is rather coarsely milled, it's no good as a whole face powder.
I use shade nr. 04 (much darker than my skin tone) for contouring and I also mix it with blushes. I like the fact that it is a true brown with no noticeable orange undertones. Nr. 03 would work for that purpose too.
Why would anyone buy this? Because of the lack of alternatives here in Brazil.
This powder is readily available in my town and is not the most expensive one.
Packaging is quite ok. The little sponge is useless, as usual.
Marchetti is a brand from Rio Grande do Sul, South Brazil.

"The Sapphires" is reportedly one of the very best films of the the year. It's won all kinds of awards! But the DVD cover is … problematic. The flick stars Chris O'Dowd as the manager of a '60s girl group in Australia comprised of four Aboriginal women, including "Australian Idol" runner-up Jessica Mauboy. Based on real events, "The Sapphires" is a love story that also tackles the racism these women faced in their native Australia. Alas, the U.S./Canada DVD cover for the film (above) plops O'Dowd front and center while the four women — their darker skin tones appearing blue along with the graphic design — smaller, behind him in the background.

Military culture of drinking and drug abuse called crisis in report
Abusing alcohol and drugs has been part of military culture historically: Service members do it for fun, to ease the stresses of war or to be part of the brotherhood.
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Abusing alcohol and drugs has been part of military culture historically: Service members do it for fun, to ease the stresses of war or to be part of the brotherhood.
But a new report says substance use and misuse among troops and their families has become a "public-health crisis" and that Pentagon methods for dealing with it are out of date.
In a study requested by the Defense Department, the Institute of Medicine report Monday said:
• About 20 percent of active-duty service members reported they engaged in heavy drinking in 2008, the latest year for which data was available. (Heavy drinking was defined as five or more drinks a day as a regular practice.)
• Binge-drinking increased from 35 percent in 1998 to 47 percent in 2008. (That's five or more drinks at a sitting for men, four or more for women, but done perhaps just once or twice a month as opposed to each week).
• While rates of both illicit- and prescription-drug abuse are low, the rate of medication misuse is rising. Just 2 percent of active-duty personnel reported misusing prescription drugs in 2002 compared with 11 percent in 2008. Such prescription-drug abuse is rising faster within the military than among civilians, and is perhaps more common than the use of illegal drugs like cocaine or marijuana.
Yet the military's drug-testing regimen, created in the post-Vietnam era, continues to focus on certain illegal drugs that may not be the main problem anymore, the 14-member panel concluded.
The panel, while commending the Pentagon for taking steps in recent years both to curb prescription-drug abuse and expand availability of substance-abuse programs, asserts the military needs to do more to reduce the stigma attached to seeking substance-abuse treatment.
"Better care for service members and their families is hampered by inadequate prevention strategies, staffing shortages, lack of coverage for services that are proved to work, and stigma associated with these disorders," said Charles O'Brien of the University of Pennsylvania's Center for Studies of Addiction and chairman of the study committee.
Defense Department spokeswoman Cynthia Smith said officials Monday were analyzing the report.
"We want to do the right thing for the service member," Smith said. "If there are areas in need of improvement, then we will work to improve those areas."
Substance abuse has "long been a concern for the U.S. population and for its military in particular," the report noted. "Dating as far back as the Revolutionary War, Dr. Benjamin Rush detailed the effects of alcohol on the troops. During the Civil War, addiction to opium prescribed for pain became known as the 'soldier's disease.' "
Today, the military's approach to treating substance abuse "tends to be old-fashioned," O'Brien said, noting the example of the military's reluctance to use medications that can combat cravings and in other ways help treat addiction, he said.
"Modern treatment of substance abuse does involve medications. There are FDA-approved, effective medications that could be used and should be used much more than they are," he said.
Another problem is an overreliance on hospitalization and inpatient rehabilitation facilities, rather than the outpatient care that characterizes most civilian addiction treatment.
"Addiction tends to be chronic," O'Brien said. "The basic pathology of the addiction has a memory. It doesn't go away that quickly."
Military counselors also need better training.
"We reviewed the training materials the U.S. Navy uses for counselor training. Those materials are based on guidelines originally written in 1984. They haven't updated them," said Dr. Dennis McCarty, a professor of public health and preventive medicine at the Oregon Health and Science University. "We think there's a substantial opportunity to enhance the training for the counselors" who work with military personnel.
To reduce the stigma attached to getting help — and thus drawing more troops into its programs — the military should integrate prevention and treatment efforts more into primary health care and do more to preserve confidentiality for those seeking help, the report said.
Material from The New York Times is included in this report.

When we remodeled, we replaced out existing windows with Kolbe & Kolbe double hung windows with a factory finish called K-Kron II. It had a ten year warranty. Well it is now ten years and the windows most heavily exposed to the sun are starting to show some deterioration. Since we are scheduled to have out house repainted this year, we want to include the windows. We remember being told that you couldn't just paint them -- something special needs to be done. But we can't seem to find that information anywhere. Does anyone know what that special something is?
Thanks Rosefolly |
Follow-Up Postings:
The paint is Flexacron and it is made by PPG. I believe it is elastometic polyurethane but PPG has never been very forthcoming about what it is. Most other manufacturers stopped using it long ago but Andersen still paints their 400 TiltWash sash with it and calls it a plastic cladding. Since the urethane and/or polycyanurates would be fully cured they should be able to be safely sanded if you wear a normal dust mask. |

In addition to the fruit were beautiful displays of familiar vegetables such as cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage and corn, but also 2-foot-long green beans, long, skinny eggplant, Asian greens, gourds and melons, and gigantic turnips and carrots.
I thought some of the carrots that wound up in our crisper at home were big, but they were little twigs compared to these two-inch-thick beauties.
We held an exotic fruit tasting at breakfast the next morning, and I got to try passionfruit, pommelo, tangerines and dragonfruit.
All the pictures I'd seen of dragonfruit during my four years at The Packer showed white flesh dotted with tiny black seeds, so I was shocked when our dragonfruit turned out to be bright purple on the inside.
As colorful as it was, however, it didn't have much flavor.
My visit drew to a close all too soon, but I had a fascinating time seeing various aspects of Taiwanese culture and noting differences and similarities between their customs and ours in the U.S.
When I stop by the neighborhood grocery to pick up dinner ingredients after work I don't fight my way through an open-air market that also features cuttlefish, live eels and chickens with the feet and heads still on that are custom-chopped while you wait.
On the other hand, the Taiwanese supermarket I visited looked much like any in the U.S.
It's nice to find similarities between your country and another, but it's the differences that give us the most opportunity to learn.
Some of the produce-related things I most enjoyed seeing on my trip — like wax apples, purple dragonfruit and cans of asparagus juice — were things I never knew existed before I left home.

Show Notes:
Today's show spans from the 1920's through 1980, covering a wide variety of recordings and styles. Among the artists featured include a trio by the recently departed Honeyboy Edwards, a pair by the obscure McKinley James, two by fine Louisiana guitarist/vocalist Leroy Washington and two by the great Memphis blues and gospel artists Robert Wilkins. Also on tap are a batch of fine field recordings, some classic female blues singers, a set of piano blues, some fascinating topical recordings and the usual batch of hard to find albums.
We open things up by paying tribute to Honeyboy Edwards who just passed on August 29, 2011 in Chicago. A couple of weeks back we played his slashing version of "Sweet Home Chicago" that he cut for Sun in 1953. Today we open with "Build A Cave", Honeyboy's commercial debut cut for the ARC label in 1950 recorded under the moniker Mr. Honey (the flipside was "Who May Your Regular Be"). The song is related to Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup's 1951 Cold War/the Korean War number " I'm Gonna Dig Myself A Hole" which was also recorded the same year by Robert Lockwood and is also kin to Jimmy Rogers' "The World Is In A Tangle" also the same year. We spin another early number, "Drop Down Mama", part of a four song session he cut for Chess in 1953. "Drop Down Mama" eventually surfaced on the 1970 Chess album of the same name. As far as I know the remaining three sides have never been issued.
We feature both sides of McKinley James' 1966 45 "Tuskegee Boogie b/w Ain't Gonna Pick No Cotton." James was a blues musician who was born in Macon, Georgia, in 1935 and raised in Macon County, Alabama. "Tuskegee Boogie" rolls along at an easygoing pace, featuring some fine low-down slide guitar. McKinley began singing gospel in The Golden Four Quartet and joined The Wings of Victory two years later, where he sang and played guitar. From there he became a one-man band and played at local shows that ranged from jails to fish fries to weddings and funerals. "I was here, there and everywhere, just like Old MacDonald's farm," McKinley recalled with a laugh. In 1955, several well-known bluesmen including Muddy Waters, Elmore James and Jimmy Reed played in Tuskegee. McKinley was inspired to make a go at a blues career. Work was hard to find but he was able to get gigs singing 15 minute spots on local radio programs. In 1965, he joined a federal adult-education program and ended up playing "Tuskegee Boogie" at his class graduation party. He'd written the song in 1962 about Tuskegee's first black sheriff, Lucious Amerson and his personal war on public drunkenness.
When the teachers saw how much the audience like the song, they decided to arrange a recording session in Columbus, GA which McKinley raised the $250 to pay for. He recorded "Tuskegee Boogie" and "Ain't Gonna Pick No Cotton" which were released as a 45 on the Tomahawk label. McKinley strapped all 500 copies to his bicycle and rode around selling them for 50 cents each in Tuskegee, Notasulga and Opelika. In 1973 he recorded another 4, "Misunderstanding b/w A Closer Talk" which was distributed locally, but neither record was picked up by a larger label. Despite that, McKinley became a prominent musician in the region and played many times at the Chattahoochee Folk Festival in Columbus, GA.

Little is known about Leroy Washington, who recorded several sessions between 1957 and 1961 for Jay Miller. He was recalled by Miller as perhaps his favorite blues guitarist. He only released a handful of sides, however, he had recorded a considerable legacy of material for Miller, which had lain unissued for decades. As Bruce Bastin wrote: "Like another fine Miller guitarist, Guitar Gable, Leroy Washington was from Opelousas. …Washington's polite, easy-going nature and keenness to record made him a highly suitable artist for Miller, who carefully built up his artist's sessions, in order to create a satisfactory potential "hit' record. Three couplings submitted by Miller to Ernie Young of the Nashboro Record Co. saw release on his Excello label in 1958-59 but Miller clearly submitted material which did not find favor." Today we play "Hello Stranger" and "Woman Are Trouble" from 1959, both unissued at the time.
I've played Robert Wilkins often on the show and today we contrast one of his pre-war songs with one of his post-war recordings. Wilkins passed away in 1987 and it's a shame he made so few recordings in his later years. He did make one of the great albums of the blues revival, Memphis Gospel Singer cut in 1963 for the Piedmont label and sadly never issued on CD (it was reissued on vinyl in 1984 on the Origin Jazz Library label.) Andy Cohen has been threatening to issue this on CD with bonus tracks but that was announced several years ago and I have no idea what the current status is. There's a few other scattered tracks available including some live cuts from the Newport Blues Festival and the 1968 Memphis Country Blues Festival plus excellent sides on the Biograph CD When I Lay My Burden Down and the Adelphi CD …Remember Me. I should also mention This Old World's In A Hell Of A Fix on Biograph which has four great Wilkins sides but like the Piedmont this is long out of print.
I've always been intrigued by topical songs and and field recordings and we play both today. Awhile back I played songs by Lawrence Gellert off the album Negro Songs of Protest issued on Rounder in the 70's. Today we spin three from the follow-up album Cap'n You're So Mean, issued by Rounder in the 80's. According to Gellert's notes some of these recordings were recorded in Greenville, South Carolina in 1924. It seems likely that these recordings are actually from the 30's although according to eyewitnesses Gellert was indeed recording in South Carolina in 1924. Other recordings hail from Atlanta, Georgia and date from 1928 through 1932. As one reviewer noted: "The most interesting thing about these two albums was the outspokenness of the songs against authority. Gellert was accepted as an insider in the African American communities in which he worked and was able to record protest songs that eluded other collectors of the time." The Document label has also issued some of this material on the CD Field Recordings Vol. 9: Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia, Kentucky 1924 – 1939. Many of Gellert's recordings have yet to be issued.
We play a couple of more modern protest songs with Johnny Shines' "Blood Ran Like Wine" and J.B. Lenoir's "Everybody Is Crying About Vietnam" both about the Vietnam war. These songs come from companion CD's to \a fascinating series of books written by Guido Van Rijn; Roosevelt's Blues: African-American Blues and Gospel Songs on FDR, The Truman and Eisenhower Blues: African-American Blues and Gospel Songs, 1945-1960, Kennedy's Blues: African-American Blues and Gospel Songs on JFK , President Johnson's Blues: African American Blues and Gospel Songs on LBJ, Martin Luther King, Robert Kennedy and Vietnam 1963-1968 and the just published The Nixon and Ford Blues: African-American Blues and Gospel Songs on Vietnam, Watergate, Civil Rights and Inflation 1969-1976.
We spotlight a batch of fine field recordings from the 60's, 70's and 80's. The 70's is generally considered a down period for the blues which may be true commercially but there was terrific field recordings being made by folks like Pete Lowry, Kip Lornell and George Mitchell among others, and in 1980 an ambitious field trip conducted by a pair of German blues fans. One of the artists they recorded was Guitar Slim who hailed from Greensboro, North Carolina. He recorded Greensboro Rounder for Flyright in the 1970's . He was accomplished on six and twelve string and a fine piano player to boot. He made final batch of sides in 1980 as part of the Living Country Blues USA series, recordings made by two young German blues enthusiasts, Axel Küstner and Siegfried Christmann who came to America with the idea to document the remaining country blues tradition. Additional recordings by Slim have been issued on a CD called Walkin' Boogie which also features sides by Memphis Piano Red.
Pete Lowry called Guitar Shorty (John Henry Fortescue) "One of the most spontaneous musicians around; right up there with Lightnin' Hopkins, maybe more so." He cut a pair of unissued sides for Savoy in 1952, the album long out-of-print Carolina Slide Guitar (Flyright, 1971) which is where our selection comes from and a final album for Lowry's Trix label, Alone In His Field, before passing in 1975.
From the 1960's we play Lovey Williams' "Going Away Blues" from the album Bothered All The Time (Southern Culture, 1983) which collects field recordings made in Mississippi in 1968 by William Ferris. Ferris did some good field work in Mississippi in he 1960's preserved on some fine long out-out of-print records like Mississippi Folk Voices (Southern Culture, 1983), James 'Son' Thomas: Highway 61 Blues (Southern Culture, 1983) and James 'Son' Thomas, Lee Kizart & Lovey Williams: The Blues Are Alive
Read Liner Notes: Pt. 1 – Pt. 2 – Pt. 3 |
And Well (XTRA, 1970). Some of his field recordings were issued on a companion CD to his most recent book Give My Poor Heart Ease – Voices Of The Mississippi Blues. In addition Ferris has written several books including the Encyclopedia of Southern Culture nominated for the Pulitzer prize and and Blues from the Delta.
As listeners know I always like to dredge up rare and hard to find records for the show. In that vein we spotlight some tough R&B tracks from the Krazy Kat album Forth Worth Shuffle – Texas RNB 1958-1964, a pair from the Arhoolie record Blues N' Trouble Vol. 2 including "Turn Loose My Tongue" a tremendous piano workout from Texas piano man Robert Shaw and James Brewer's rendition of "Big Road Blues" from Chicago Blues: Live At The Fickle Pickle a collection of live tracks cut at the famous club in 1963.

The Daily Grind: Short or long quest arcs? {Massively}
May 19th 2009 5:27PM I really enjoy a good story/quest arc, and tend to save them for weekends and other times where I can sit down and focus for extended play sessions. Although the "kill 10 rats" stuff is great for my hit-and-miss playtimes (I work on the road, so sometimes get 10-15 minutes here and there while waiting), the epic quests like in EverQuest were a real treat. I still smile thinking back to when my EQ Halfling Druid (don't bother with the jokes, I've heard them already) got his Epic 1.0 after an all-nighter, over a case of beer, and, sadly, bailing out on work the next day (yeah, I laid out of work to get my Epic...). The guildies all pitched in with the big fights, the quests rolled along, and it was a great time for me. That kind of stuff seems to be missing in Warcraft (my current evil hobby). Personally, I think WOW should put another UI option in below the "Instant Quest Text" called "don't bother with quest text, just print how many of what to kill/collect". It's not interesting enough to me to even bother reading. Rock on Carbonite and your magic arrows...
It's been a long time, but the Paladin quest for Verigan's Fist (I think it's level 20ish) was a great time for me in WOW. Sure, it was only 3 hours or so, drawn out by my need to run everywhere to get flight points. But it seemed like a rite of passage for the class. Would be nice if there were more things like it. However, with all the new WOTLK stuff obsoleting the TBC stuff that obsoleted your Old World stuff, there's just not much satisfaction in to be had in working too hard for that old stuff...
Anyway, not sure if that's even relevant to the topic, but I've typed way too much to quit now.
PS: Huge thanks and wave to Aello for the Verigan's help, and Vero for the Druid Epic help. If either of you happen to read this, you rock ;-)

I got tired from searching for song lyrics online while watching music videos on YouTube.
So I write this simple, yet extremely useful Chrome extension.
It's called "Lyrics for YouTube™" and you can download it at the Google Chrome extensions gallery:
With one click of a button, the lyrics will appear right next to the music video, at a very natural fashion. This way, you have the playing music video and the song's lyrics, in a beautiful side by side comfortable display.
Usage instructions – Click the extension's icon and the song's lyrics will magically appear right next to the video.

Have you heard about Google's latest service – Google Cloud Print?
It's a cool service which allows you to print stuff from your home printer using any other computer in the world or even (and especially) mobile devices.
The service is still in beta, so right now you can only print through mobile devices with HTML5 compliant browsers which can access Google's Gmail and Docs mobile version.
They claim that their next step is embedding this functionality in Chrome OS notebooks.
It kind of looks like they skipped over Google Chrome's version.
That's why I developed an extension for Google Chrome through which you may print using the Google Cloud Print service to any of your connected printers.
I encountered quite a few technical challenges while developing this extension. But I've overcome all of then and I'm proud to present the final outcome.
Everyone is welcome to download and study the extension's source code.
You may download the extension here: (A 5 star rating will be greatly appreciated :)
What does the extension do?
The extension gives you the ability to print any doc/pdf/txt file, Gmail attachment, email or Google Docs document using Google Cloud Print™.
Here are some screenshots of the extension in action:
Some more screenshots people took I found on Flicker:
Print a pdf/doc/txt/jpg/jpeg file
Navigate your way to the desired file and click the extension's icon.
The icon will appear on the left side of the address bar only when the current tab's URL ends with .pdf, .doc or .txt.
Print a Gmail attachment or email
Look for the "Print using Google Cloud Print" links (you can see where they are located in the screenshots).
Print a Google Docs document
Open a document and click File > Print using Google Cloud Print.
Demo Video
Here is a demo video of the extension in action (thanks to Digital Inspiration):
Version 0.31 (5/3/1011)
- Bug Fix – Existing Google Docs documents will now also have the "Print using Google Cloud Print" button.
Version 0.3 (15/2/1011)

Have a look at your browser's address bar – your sight is just fine. You actually are on orenyomtov.com as opposed to this morning, when this website lived under the .info TLD.
It has been quite a long time since I made the decision to move to the new domain. But there were two drawbacks which delayed the domain transfer. The first one is lack of time, and the second one is… Well, my laziness.
Anyways, I thought I would share some of the steps I took in order to move the website to the new domain. I was lucky enough that I didn't have to change hosts. Doing that may have required some additional steps.
- I bought the new domain and linked it to my hosting.
- I downloaded the latest WordPress installation and uploaded it into the new domain by FTP (Looking for an FTP client?).
- I copied the
folder. And in my case, the "downloads" folder which is the folder I chose to store the uploads in (Default iswp-content/uploads
). - I also copied the
file and the.htaccess
file. - I used the Search and Replace WordPress plugin to replace "orenyomtov.info" with "orenyomtov.com" in the database.
- I notified Google of the domain change in Google Webmaster Tools.
- I exported a new sitemap using the Google XML Sitemap Generator plugin and submitted it to Google Webmaster Tools.
- I opened a new Google Analytics account and deployed the new tracking code in the theme I copied in step 3.
- I edited the old .htaccess file to contain only:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule (.*) http://orenyomtov.com/$1 [R=301,L] - I updated my FeedBurner account and all other similar services.
- I updated my website to the new URL in all of my favorite social platforms (@orenyomtov) and forums.
- Twit twit.
- And then I began writing this post.
The move didn't take as long as I expected it to take. Even though it does seem a little complicated after writing it all down.
I hope that your move will be as smooth as mine. Good luck, Oren.

I've received many emails complaining that the plugin does not recognize YouTube videos. Because of lack of time, I delayed the update until now.
I just released an update to the plugin which should solve most of the issues that I was contacted about.
Go ahead and download the new version:
Last month I participated in two amazing events. The first one is The Big Geek and is considerably similar to the second event called Startup Weekend. They both took place in Israel.
The Big Geek II
This event was organized by StartupSeeds, a non-profit organisation encouraging teen Israeli entrepreneurs to make their first steps in the entrepreneurship world. Whether it's by giving them a place to talk about technology, or by conducting monthly meetings with the most interesting lectures (for free!). StartupSeeds even assists young innovative kids with starting their own startups by providing them financial help and the best mentors available. The online forum and meetings created a large and friendly community for the Israeli teenager who breaths technology and internet.
What's the event about?
Sixteen kids (Ages 14-18), divided into four "teams", worked 24 hours non-stop on their unique idea for a startup. Each team raised a fully working service within those 24 hours (!). While the projects are not breath-taking nor unbelievable, they are still awesome considering the time spent working on them. Actually, they're awesome not matter what.
The project that my team and I developed is FixedInch. It's a free online service for displaying objects in their real size over any screen in the world. We have discussed the possibility to continue working on it, and we most likely will, in the near future.
What else can I say? It was an awesome experience that I will never forget. It was 24 hours of fun and jokes, some of could not be told anywhere else like (via @TalDromi):
"Let's use JSON for this"
"Who's this Jason you are talking about?"
"XML's brother!"
Startup Weekend Israel 2009
This is a world-wide known event, which started in 2007. Since then it took place in over 50 cities and growing (!). This is kind of a grown-up version of the Big Geek.
During the first day, 140 Israeli entrepreneurs pitched 50 unique ideas which turned into thirteen motivated teams. Each team consisted of about 4-8 people who designed and developed their idea for three days. The second day was all about work and food (lots of it!). On the third day of the event, the teams finished their work and presented their project.
My team and I worked on Frayer Meter – an online free service that suggests the most economical cellular plan according to one's needs. While it's not fully functional, we plan to continue working on it as we believe in it's potential.

Situated in the Eighth Arrondissement just off Avenue Montaigne, this tiny shop sells vintage haute couture from designers such as Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Bottega Veneta, and Hermés. The small, cluttered space is packed with gently used jackets, dresses, jewelry, handbags, and shoes, most of which are collector's items (and priced as such—a handbag is likely to sell for at least €1,000). A large majority of the inventory is Chanel, making Scarlett a popular destination for fans of the double C logo.
Insider Tip:
While you're in the area, check out the boutiques along fashionable Avenue Montaigne: Fendi, Valentino, Joseph, Christian Dior, and Giorgio Armani France are all within a five-minute walk of Scarlett.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.
