HD Tune Pro
Version and / or Patch Used: 4.00

HD Tune is a Hard Disk utility which has the following functions:
Benchmark: measures the performance
Info: shows detailed information
Health: checks the health status by using SMART
Error Scan: scans the surface for errors
Temperature display
HD Tune Pro gives us accurate read, write and access time results and for the last couple of years has gained popularity amongst reviewers. It is now considered a must have application for storage device testing.
Looking at the sequential reads across the span of the drive, we see the Crucial M500 delivering consistent read performance.
Sequential write performance across the span of the drive shows us a 108MB/s minimum and a 137MB/s maximum. The larger issue though is how much lower the write speed is on the M500 120GB compared to other products on the market today.
HD Tach - Sequential Write Performance after Random Writes
The slope is slippery. After a consumer appropriate amount of random writes to the M500 120GB, we see that can drop to below 20MB/s when writing sequential data.

2+2 Transfer Student Information
Western Kentucky University (WKU) has a unique partnership with a select group of community and technical colleges that allows graduates to apply their IT degrees towards the completion of the CIT major. Under this arrangement, WKU will accept your degree as a block transfer when you are admitted — and you start the CIT program as a Junior.
There are no complicated articulation agreements, no awkward lists of classes that transfer (and many that do not). Our consortium graduates know that their associates' degrees transfer into the CIT program directly. Check out the 'other' schools; there really isn't much to compare.
Students who take advantage of this option only take (4) 300-level CIT courses and (8) 400-level electives. Your block transfer covers the rest of the major requirements.
Students must complete the A.A.S. degree before starting in the CIT program to take advantage of this partnership. WKU will not consider individual courses for transfer. If you don't graduate...you can't take advantage of this 2+2 option.
Students who graduate in something other than Information Technology (or CIS at IvyTech) are not eligible for the 2+2 option. Lots of college majors use computers in their curriculum and some have the word "technology" in the title. Unless it's an IT program from a consortium partner we can't accept your transfer credit.
Students who transfer from a partner community/technical college will need to complete WKU's General Education requirements. These may be completed at WKU, or your local college. You will learn more about this in your CIT classes.
All CIT courses are available on-line and may be completed from anywhere in the world. The "on-demand" format of these classes is compatible with busy work and family schedules.
2+2 Partner Institutions Information
The Community and Technical Colleges listed below are members of the Educational Opportunity Consortium. Students who graduate with an associates degree in Information Technology from one of these schools are eligible for the 2+2 option in CIT.
Kentucky | Georgia | Indiana | South Carolina | Tennessee | Texas |
ITCC South Bend |

Students who have completed a different major or have graduated from a school that is not part of the consortium are NOT eligible for the 2+2 program. Students who have attended, but not graduated from, a consortium partner cannot transfer individual courses. Only the completed associates degree is accepted. If you haven't graduated, please consult your advisor and finish that associates program!
If you are a faculty member at a school offering a technically-focused Information Technology curriculum and are interested in becoming part of the educational consortium, please contact us. Students, please ask your dean or division chair to get in touch. We are not able to follow up directly to student requests for inclusion.
Non 2+2 Students
Many CIT majors transfer to WKU after completing their associate's degree from a partner institution. Other majors are traditional on-campus students. Some are non-traditional, adult, or returning students.
If you are a 'non-2+2' student (you haven't completed an associate's degree in IT) you will start the major by completing a set of foundational courses. These required classes will introduce you to the key subject areas in the discipline and prepare you for more advanced study in your electives.
We strive to make the CIT program as flexible and accessible as possible.
Contact your assigned CIT advisor for more information.

Shop Osmotics here!
According to the January 2013 edition of Cosmopolitan magazine, our pore size is genetically pre-determined. But wait! Before you freak out like I did at this devastating news know that there is an up side to all of this - with the right kind of prevention, the rate at which they expand as you age can be slowed. What kind of prevention are we talking about? It could be as simple as removing all of your makeup before bed so your pores aren't blocked and using a preventive cream or serum that is copper based such as Osmotics Blue Copper 5 Firming Elasticity Repair. They will stimulate fibroblasts to increase elastin production and repair damaged elastin so it's healthier and more functional. If you can follow these simple steps, chances are the mistakes of your 20's will be rectified!

«Give Hair A Thorough Cleanse With The Sachajuan Scalp Shampoo! -
Shop Sachajuan now!
If you're anything like me you've tried every restructuring, moisturizing and volumizing shampoo under the sun. However I tend to skim over the option for a 'clarifying' shampoo. To me, that always meant to cleanse which is what I figured the main job of a shampoo was. For many, a clarifying shampoo just might be what your hair needs to get your products to do their jobs again, especially when you only have to alternate it into your hair washing routine once a week. Here's why you should:
According to WhoWhatWear.com, incorporating a clarifying shampoo gives hair a much needed deep cleanse, to rid it of all the product and natural buildup like mineral deposits from tap water, oil, and over pollutants. If hair isn't responding to your normal styling aids and tends to feel weighed down then that's a good sign a clarifying shampoo is needed. If you're in the market for a thorough cleanse then they recommend Sachaujuan's Scalp Shampoo that removes dry dandruff and buildup while maintaining a healthy moisture balance of hair and scalp and leaving hair very clean and oh so fresh!

Hello, I'm pleased to report the 'paph' I wrote about this time last year is in bud again, this time with 2 spikes. It's looking very healthy and the waxy flower is larger than last years solitary one and to my eyes, beautiful. I've only just realised I never did post a pic of the opened flower, so I will do so tomorrow, in the daylight.
However, before I do that, I have a question if I may....only being vaguely familiar with paphs in as much as I 'thought' I could recognise one as I assumed they all had a pouched arrangement at the front, on closer inspection this flower puzzles me somewhat. Do the pouches/slippers always open towards the front....mine appears to have the opening at the back?? This really seems a silly question, but as I don't know the answer and images all appear to show them at the front, I'm asking here. The label even shows it at the front, but only says Paphoipedilum and care info, no other name etc. Here's the link to my previous post with the plant in bud last year.
Here is a link that might be useful: my old post

OK, I can see what I'm doing now in the light of day so here's the pics, hope these explains more clearly what I'm asking? The flower is 10cms at it's widest point, but oh my, in the pic the leaves look terribly dusty...they're not, honest!! lol!! Thanks for looking, Gill from the UK. |
Not normal at all, it's like it grew the pouch the wrong side out??? I'd wait for next bloom and see. Some people like the wierd ones, so it may not be a lost cause if it always blooms this way. Looks like it may have some Winston Churchill influence. Bob |
- Posted by greenclaws UKzone8a (My Page) on Wed, Jan 25, 12 at 10:23
Hi there Bob, thanks for your time in replying. So what you're telling me is this rescued plant is worth millions of ÂŁÂŁ's then?! However, I think I already have the answer to that one, it's more likely to be a worthless reject knowing my luck! I'll await the opening of the second flower and see what that looks like before I book our luxury round the world trip on the strength of it. (makes mental note to call at travel agents tomorrow....just in case). I'm certain I don't have any pics at all of last years open flower, but I'll go on the main PC and have another search just in case. Thanks again. Gill from the UK. |

OK guys, I've just been and looked in the proper place and yes, I have several shots of last years flower in a sub-folder and they all clearly show a proper front opening slipper. Seems like this particular 'tuft of leaves' has decided grow a mutant flower, so it will be interesting to see what the other one does. Regards, Gill from the UK. |
- Posted by meyermike_1micha 5 (email@example.com) on Wed, Jan 25, 12 at 11:50
Gill I can't even believe that you did such a great job with that orchid, let alone have one worth millions at this point... I think it's beautiful even though deformed at this point. That is weird. Has it been exposed to radiation?lol Good to you :-) Mike |
- Posted by greenclaws UKzone8a (My Page) on Wed, Jan 25, 12 at 16:24
Hi Mike, seems like we keep following each other around...plumies, c&s and now orchids!! Yes this orchid has grown a great deal since I've had it and it looks very healthy apart from this particular flower. Wonder if any more will do this? Have read that each tuft of leaves should only flower once so that said, hopefully there will be no more Frankenstein flowers! O.T. I know but why do my monetary 'pound' signs come up as random letters etc, came up as squares in the preview first time? |
- Posted by greenman28 NorCal 7b/8a (My Page) on Wed, Jan 25, 12 at 21:13
Hello, Gill, that's a beauty! ;-) As for the missing 'pound' sign...GardenWeb doesn't support special characters anymore.

Well if it isn't Mr.Greenman from c&s now....Hi Josh! Mmmmmh, it's an even nicer bloom when the 'right way round' so let's hope it gets it act together and this is just a one off Frankenstein flower. Thanks for the explanation re my 'pound' sign going AWOL! Cheers, Gill from the UK. |
- Posted by meyermike_1micha 5 (email@example.com) on Thu, Jan 26, 12 at 12:29
Party!!! Lol Gill, I had to come back and take a second look! I actually had to show my sick Aunt. She thinks its beautiful and so unique! Yes, we seems that we have a lot of the same plant interest. Hey Josh! |
- Posted by greenman28 NorCal 7b/8a (My Page) on Thu, Jan 26, 12 at 13:33
Hello, Gill and Mike! ;-) Now that I have an Orchid in my collection, I've started visiting different Forum areas.

Since my plumerias all died my current addictions are adeniums, crasssulas, orchid, and palms...plus of course anything else that sprouts leaves an roots, much to my husbands amusement. The more exotic the more attraction it holds for me, trouble is no-one round here grows anything like this as we are in the sticks in a tiny rural village, so no orchid/c&s clubs etc. Thank heavens for folks like yourselves here on Gweb, what would I do without you all? Gill, from the UK. |
- Posted by meyermike_1micha 5 (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Thu, Jan 26, 12 at 15:41
Gill, probably be one very lonely person! Yes, anyone that knows me gets very amused with the fact that I can take care of so many plants without ever skipping a beat. They get a kick out of watching me do the balancing act every early am. all summer, and every weekend. But, boy, since they all want to sit in my greenhouse or in a plant room for a few hours, I should start charging them. Why let them be have amusement for free? Have you ever walked through one of the parks at Disney World at night with all them lights and beautiful exotic plants in amoung them, that's my house. My yard and house transports you into a tropical paradise or close to it. Now, to live a small tiny town and not be able to share that with anyone:-(. I am glad we have each other here also and I am glad we have you! Mike |

Spotted this video on another website, and what attracted to me first was her. I clicked the video, listened, and thought "wow, this is damn good." It plays on hipsters and self-identity,and comes out very confident,I'd like to hear more from Miss Solano. The video was directed by Vashtie Kola.
As for the title and hook, it comes from the Spinderella verse in this song, so while Solano may or may not be looking for a mighty good man, she's ready to endure what it takes to be heard as an artist.

Welcome To 4.1! The Build V2!
A few crucial changes are Efflorescence that will become a smart heal, and instead of healing everyone it will then heal up to three people (who need the most healing) for an amount far more desirable that a mere 500 heal a second. Another change to Efflorescence is that it will no longer require Living Seed (yes! fuck yes!) so that's going to be dropped in 4.1! One final change is that Nature's Swiftness, aside the fact that it makes your next spell instant, will increase the "healing" by 50%. The spell that you use with Nature's Swiftness must be a healing spell to gain this benefit!
Besides the obvious Restoration change I am also going to drop Furor, I'm getting a lot of feedback about my mana regen being to overpowered (I never run out of mana these days) so it is time to cut back on the regen talents and to start investing into brute force! I'll be doing this with Blessing of the Grove (yes it isn't that good but still, it's worth it) and Genesis. I might switch the two points in Moonglow over to Furor but I believe that Moonglow is better in therms of mana. There's also a part of me that is considering to drop Tree of Life, but then where would I spend that one point :).
Small blog post I know, I'll try to do my very best to get RestoDude back on track but real life is very busy so again, I apologise!

If you drop ToL you wont be able to access the other trees :/
ReplyDelete I've also considered dropping my TOL for the simple fact that in the heat of battle I tend to forget the darn thing. Shameful, I know but then, I'm not really missing it or getting to the end going 'oh if only I'd turned into a tree'. When I do remember it is more a case of 'oh look what I can do!' and go and hide in the nearest forest of odd looking trees. I've got two druids one bear/tree specs and the other solo speced as resto, I'm tempted to gear them the same dropping ToL off one and then run them a few times to see the difference. Hmm ... now where to put that one point so I'll actually notice the difference?
ReplyDeletewell ToL is still worth a point but it's like you say you have to remember when to use it.
ToL atm is good for A) extra healing done or B) Lifebloom spam/Regrowth spam
Currently I use ToL on fights like Halfus heroic where the first few seconds are very dodgy (most of the times this is where hero/bloodlust goes off so LB ticks at an insane rate) or Nef when i'm healing on a platform and the electric thing is about to go off. Mainly when you have constant AE dmg for a short periode and you have time to prep LB stacks it's worth taking.
fights above are the ones where I really "need" ToL, but that's it in this tier.
ToL is also nice for "dps", like Chimmy last phase where I usually wrathspam like a nutter
Magic dispel is probably the way to go if you leave out ToL in this build

Serves 4
Brazilian iced coffee has the spirit of a root-beer float. Rich chocolate milk and fizzy cola sweetens the drink, while the coffee gives it a nice kick (although decaf is a great option, too)! Kids will love the novelty of plain old chocolate milk with cola, without the coffee. Feel free to top with vanilla ice cream, instead of whipped cream. Mmm….
1 cup double strength coffee
12 oz can cola
3 cups chocolate milk
Whipped cream or vanilla ice cream
1. Brew coffee twice as strong as package recommendations. I used instant because I haven't been drinking coffee lately, but you can, and should, use the best quality you have. Chill coffee. I placed mine in the freezer for 15 minutes and that took the edge off.
2. Combine coffee, cola, and chocolate milk.
3. Pour over ice and top with whipped cream. Serve immediately.
Simply fill in your details below.

FORT MYERS, Fla. — All offseason, John Farrell mentioned two names as his leadoff candidates: Shane Victorino and Daniel Nava.
That could be changing.
Grady Sizemore's spring emergence has shifted most of the winter thinking about how the Red Sox would construct their batting order in 2014. Farrell had often discussed hitting Dustin Pedroia second and David Ortiz third — an adjustment he made for the final two games of last year's World Series.
Over the last week in spring training, though, Farrell has put Victorino back into the two-spot where he hit so regularly last season.
"He's got an ability in the two-hole to play the game a little more," Farrell said of Victorino. "If there's a guy on base, he's got the ability to bunt. He's already seen some pitches by the guy ahead of him. You can't deny the track record of what spots in the lineup show and the performance."
Victorino has much better numbers hitting second than first, with a batting average 40 points higher and an on-base percentage 35 points better out of the two-hole.
Pedroia has better numbers hitting second than third, though the difference is much smaller.
The top three of Sizemore, Victorino and Pedroia sure looked fine in Monday's 10-5 win over the Cardinals. In the third, Sizemore singled, Victorino hit a sharp flyout and Pedroia launched his first home run of the spring.
Two innings later, Sizemore singled again, Victorino walked and Pedroia drove in a run with another base hit.
A top of the lineup with that trio would also lengthen the order a bit, pushing Mike Napoli down to fifth and Daniel Nava to sixth — spots they occupied for much of 2013.

A number of the young plants I bought when I first arrived in Brazil 3 years ago are now beginning to flower. This is not a first flowering but the first, last year was spoiled by aphids. Smaller and less well-known than Bapt. echinata, this is another plant from the southern area of the Brazilian Mata Atlantica. The somewhat Ondontoglossum-like flowers grow in a rather untidy spray and appear in late summer/early fall(now). |

How to Be a Successful Team Player at Work
Part of being successful at work is having the skills to work together with your coworkers and be a valuable part of the team. Being a team player will help you develop worthwhile relationships with coworkers and make you look better to your bosses. Keep in mind a few simple suggestions on how to be a successful team player at work.
1Pitch in on the small stuff. If you're known as the person that always leaves the copy machine empty of paper or who takes the last cup of coffee and doesn't start a fresh pot, coworkers will be less likely to consider you part of the team. If they can't rely on you to help out with these little office tasks, they won't rely on you for help with projects and deadlines. You're more apt to be viewed as a workplace team player if you treat coworkers with courtesy and help out around the office.Ad
2Be reliable. Part of being a vital member of a work team is being reliable and someone that others can count on. Show up to work on time and meet deadlines consistently. Reliable and consistent performance will earn favor with your boss and camaraderie from teammates.
3Get to know your coworkers. Knowing a little bit about your coworkers will keep your team familiar with you, help you to be friendly with each other and enable you to help each other out. For example, if you know a coworker has to leave early to attend a child's soccer game, you can help out by staying later to cover his shift or help finish a project.
4Learn flexibility. Be flexible enough to come in a little early or stay late to help meet a group goal. Being flexible with your schedule shows willingness to do what's best for the team.
5Offer constructive help. Give a coworker constructive suggestions for problems with clients or projects. Sharing your knowledge, but doing so to produce constructive results instead of displaying superiority, will make you a valuable, trusted workplace team player.
6Participate in group meetings and planning sessions. Don't be afraid to speak up and give your thoughts during group sessions or office meetings. Offering your thoughts will keep you an active helper in the decision-making process and show you have an interest in the team.
7Respect your coworkers. Don't gossip or make fun of coworkers. Coworkers won't trust the office gossip or want someone on their team that mocks them behind their backs. Treat them with respect by being polite, not interrupting them and avoiding office gossip.
8Solve problems. Part of being a team player is doing your part to help deal with problems and difficult situations. Instead of passing a problematic issue off to someone else, do what you can to support coworkers and find a solution to the problem.Ad
We could really use your help!

video game coding?
Vans shoes?
- Don't be afraid to speak up if you have an issue. Instead of letting unresolved issues fester, address them early to avoid passive aggression or other unproductive behavior.

This one is for the Hudson Mohawke fans who want to hear all of those unreleased beats. While Drake's Nothing Was The Same did feature a HudMo track ("Connect"), there was another instrumental that was given to Drake that goes by the name of "Power Ruby." HudMo places this beat being Nothing Was The Same-bound sometime in 2010 (aka "the early stages"). In any case, it's pretty funny to see something this bright (and, like FACT states, "Just Blaze-esque") being used to soundtrack a Chanel catwalk, but we're not mad at it. You can check out the full version of the beat in this video via Chanel, or listen to a snippet of the unreleased instrumental below.

Sailing through stormy seas and rolling waves is not the kind of thing that the travel brochures talk about when you book a cruise. This simple guide will tell you where and just as importantly when you can expect to hit choppy waters, giving you the facts you need to avoid the worst of the weather.
Ocean Crossings
If you are taking any cruise that crosses large stretches of open waters, like a transpacific or transatlantic crossing, then you will almost certainly hit some rough seas on your cruise. However there are certain times of the year that you should definitely avoid (February-April for the Pacific, while the Atlantic sea is roughest from November-February). Generally the best time of year to take a transatlantic cruise is from May to August and June to August offers the calmest seas for the Pacific.
There are certain areas like the Bay of Biscay and the North Sea where you can expect to hit rough seas at almost any time of the year. However the weather and the waves get significantly worse during the Autumn and winter months. This is especially the case with the Mediterranean, which experiences storms and large swells.
Anybody considering taking a cruise around Africa should be aware that they will be hitting rough seas as they circle the Cape of Good Hope, where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Indian Ocean. This will happen regardless of the season. Of course once you circle round into the Indian Ocean rough seas are not the only problem you have to deal with; there's always the Somali pirates for example
South America
The seas along the coast of South America are generally calm during the summer months (November-March) and deteriorate during the winter months. However the further South you travel the more likely you are to hit rough seas. Cruise around Cape Horn for example and you can almost guarantee that you will hit rough seas. The other place to watch out for is Drake Passage (an area of sea between the Shetland Islands and Cape Horn). Anyone who wants to take a cruise to Antarctica will have to cross this stretch of water.
The obvious time to avoid a cruise in the Caribbean is during the hurricane season, which has traditionally been from June 1 to November 30. However, as a result of changing weather patterns, the hurricane season is no longer as predictable as it used to be. Apart from time of year, there are certain areas that also experience rough seas regardless of the time of year. This happens as ships exit the Gulf of Mexico or the Caribbean Sea.
North America
With a long coastline, Canada offers a great place to take a cruise. As most Canadian cruises occur within the sheltered waters of the Inside Passage, rough seas is not a problem that cruise ship passengers have to deal with. However if you plan to visit Anchorage, Seward or Whittier, you will have to cross the Gulf of Alaska, which can get pretty rough.
From July to November is Typhoon season in the North-West Pacific. This is definitely not the time of year to consider to be taking any type of cruise unless you want to be dealing with rough seas. The strongest typhoons occur in the South China Sea, making a cruise around China, Japan, Taiwan and the Philippines especially dangerous.
If you watch the news then you will know how treacherous the sea between Australia and Indonesia can be. Other areas where the sea is especially rough include the Bass Strait, which is the stretch of water seperating Tasmania and Australia along with the Tasman Sea. The sea is especially rough between July to November, which is during the typhoon season in Asia.

Strengthening Our Families: An In-Depth Look at the Proclamation on the Family (Paperback)
by David C. Dollahite
Ships in 2 to 3 business days
Domestic and International Shipping Options
Other Formats Available
Product Description
In 1995 the First Presidency and the Council of the Twelve Apostles published The Family: A Proclamation to the World, in which they boldly declared revealed principles and doctrines about the relationship between the sexes, marriage, and family life. Church members have been challenged to learn its doctrines, apply them in their lives, and defend them to the world.
This compilation of essays by more than 80 respected LDS theologians, sociologists, and thinkers across many disciplines explores the Proclamation in depth, illuminating its rich doctrine and key principles. The book also offers hundreds of practical tips for strengthening marriage and family relationships, guiding children, and helping families in challenging circumstances.
Used as a textbook in the Department of Marriage, Family, and Human Development at Brigham Young University, this readable and helpful guide will also be a rich source of inspiration and understanding to general LDS readers, particularly parents, teachers, and Church leaders.

I'm doing this in two messages in case the pics are too big for dial up folks all at once. I emptied one of those foil coffee bags and was thinking about how sturdy it is and should be reusable for something. I put water in it to make sure it held water and of course it does. But so what, its too flimsy to give away flowers in for instance. Then I remembered that I had this pretty raku vase a friend made for me years ago that leaks so I can't use it for flowers. I'd tried putting things inside, but its irregularly shaped and things similar in size didn't fit right. The coffee bag works great and conforms to the funny shape onthe inside. I almost want to buy flowers to try it out.
Could put lots of them in a basket to gather flowers... They are light weight. Anything thats not water proof that a coffee bag can be squished into can be a vase.

Years ago when I worked in our local thrift store there was a lady who would come at the end of our $1/bag sales and pick out things that we would "give" her. I put give in quotes cuz she gave most of them back in the form of pot holders and shopping bags which we then sold. She took cotton clothing and old towels home and washed them and made things. The potholders have terry cloth towel in the middle. They are my favorite pot holders still more than 20 years later. (I wore out quite a few but still have these.) You can see that I've patched a couple of them. Hers are the first pic, then the second are some I made, inspired by her, from an old worn out towel and some fabric samples. I wish I remembered her name - she was doing this before recycling was so fashionable! and here are mine kathy |
Great ideas & I'll bet the potholders feel a lot more secure in your hands. Ones from store are often stiff & i have no luck with the mitts,I have small hands & I can't get a grip on anything with them. Some potholders are very thin also. I used to really like the "free" ones the people running for local gov't offices used to give away. They had nice thickness & sometimes 1 side was silvered or goldish like the ironing board pads used to be. Oh, another bag that will work even to put a gift in is potato chip bag. It can be washed & turned inside out & nice silver color on it slip gift in & fold down & tie with ribbon. Jan |

Good idea about the potato chip bag. So much packaging is very sturdy, its a shame not to reuse it. I've got some plans for handbags using some of this kind of stuff plus duct tape and old plastic table cloths. An inside out little potato chip bag sewn down the middle might just make a good cell phone and pen pouch. I'm just too scattered tho, cuz right now I'm covering a light bulb with half marbles, lol. Gotta do the bags next! kathy |

Imagine an 18-year-old standing next to a 49-year-old. Now show me a marketer who can draw similarities between the two, and I'll show you the laughingstock of his industry. "The [18- to 49-year-old] market doesn't make any sense," says Cheryl Russell, editor of The Boomer Report and editor in chief of New Strategist Publications in Ithaca, New York. "That's just sloppy marketing. Now they've tried to move it up to 25- to 54-year-olds, which is equally silly."
"We're living in a world in which the numbers don't mean what they used to," says Goldstein. "People used to go from one stage to the next, and there was fairly good agreement about the ages at which you do certain things. But what we're seeing now is no longer linear--it's circular. People repeat stages and recycle their lives, so you have people raising a family, getting divorced, and then raising another family. You can have two men who are 64 years old, and one is retired and driving around the country in his Winnebago, while the other one is just remarried with a toddler in the house."

A leader with an edible business shares her thoughts on leadership
By Leanne Hoagland-Smith April 26, 2014 1:44PM
Leanne Hoagland-Smith. | Provided photo~Sun-Times Media
Spring is a good time to think of flowers and what could be better if those flowers were edible?
For this final column of April, I had the opportunity to interview Ann Lichnerowicz, owner of Edible Arrangements in Valparaiso and Portage. Ann lives in Portage with her husband and family. She shares her free time with several not-for-profit organizations including the Valparaiso Rotary.
1. Share 5 words to describe a leader
• Honesty
• Conviction
• Driven
• Fair
• Forward thinking
2. How much do positive core values play in the role of being a leader?
Core values play an essential role in how we live our everyday lives. They speak to whom we are and what our standards are. Core values are learned at a young age and are tweaked and challenged through life's events.
3. What has been the one most consistent or repetitive challenge you have faced in any of your leadership roles?
Making sure my team is happy. Marketing would be a close second challenge.
4. For Northwest Indiana to be a viable business community is there one action that could be taken to jump start the economy?
Tourism for me is an opportunity for businesses here in Northwest Indiana to jump start the economy. I think we should make the entire Northwest Indiana lakefront, including the Dunes area, more of a tourist destination. Of course, then we would have to consider the following questions:
• Where is the transportation, to and from?
• Where is the rental of watercraft such as kayaks and paddle boards?
• Where are the places to have lunch, dinner and drinks on the beach?
• Why are the current lakefront areas locked down at dusk?
5. Any additional thoughts or words of wisdom you can to share?
Being a mom and a business owner I have some very strong thoughts on parental leadership. For example:
• Why are so many parents too lenient with their children?
• Why are we making a generation of youth who are not held responsible for the consequences of their actions?
• Why do so many parents give their children everything instantly without having the children earn the rewards?
Additionally I believe we as business and parent leaders need to be able to demonstrate we have talked to our children about:
• What is a good relationship
• What is acceptable behavior and what is not especially about how we treat each other regardless of gender
• How to communicate through positive body language to actual face-to-face interactions
• How to have an open mind and use our critical thinking skills
• How to make good choices and tough decisions given the high incidence of drugs and peer pressure
As a parent, I have some serious reservations about the values some of today's parents are instilling into the current and next generation. These concerns, if not addressed, will impact my small business as well as other small businesses.

zip code
zip code
System of postal-zone codes (zip stands for zone improvement plan) introduced in the U.S. in 1963 to improve mail delivery and exploit electronic reading and sorting capabilities. The original code, which corresponds to the postal codes used in most countries in the world, consists of five numbers. The first three identify the state and portion of the state, the last two a specific post office or zone. In 1983 a nine-digit code (created by adding a hyphen and four digits) was introduced to further speed delivery; the first two added digits specify a particular sector, the last two an even smaller segment (e.g., one side of a city block, or a single floor in a large building).

Physical defects and dysfunctions arise maybe from the developmental stage of the fetus or from other traumas and injuries. Emergencies happen when we least expect it. Life threatening events may lead to an actual life long suffering of a person. When things like this happen, we might get upset and disappointed with life. But that should not be the case. We should always be positive towards life. Even though you have suffered that extent of injury and may have imperfections, always cling to the thought that you are still alive and be always thankful for that. Although you may be upset of what had happen to you, remember that there are several procedures that can be performed for the restoration of your body appearance and functioning.
The need of having one
If you have a dysfunctional part of your face or any part of your body, it is a must that you should consult plastic surgeons to repair what was wrong. Plastic surgeons are experienced enough to help you have back what you have lost. This will help you restore your confidence in self and self-esteem. Although it might cost you financially, it is up to you in the end whether to go for a surgery or not. Plastic surgeons diagnose and perform procedures with your permission only.
In case of a body imperfection such as burns, it does depends more with your decision. There are those who prefer not to correct their burns or other traumas because it cost a lot. But always think of your health. Health is always first on the list. Plastic surgeries needs a lot of thinking, decision making, and all other support such as financial, physical, emotional, and spiritual support. Friends and families are expected to be with the affected person all throughout the process, from the decision making to recovery period.
The result
Although the same as you are under a cosmetic surgery that you will recover as a totally new beautiful being, plastic surgery will allow you to regain what was lost in you. You will be able to be confident again, prevent criticism, boost self-esteem, and be more positive towards life. Results may center on yourself but you can always spread it to others. If you have been very contented of the result of the surgery, of course, you will be happy and be more positive in life, with that, your family and friends will be happier than you.
If that happens, great things will continue to flourish in your life. We can be certain but life is so surprising. You will never hesitate to pursue your dreams. We can never tell, if you are inspired with your experience, you can be a surgeon too that extends hands to other people because first hand, you know how it is to be there. And you will be better on that because of your experience. If that will not be your path, you always have in your heart imprinted the desire to help others especially those suffering like what you've been through.

WATERY LOVE — Debut 45
Originally released in 2009 and available yet again. Check the webstore.
MORDECAI's springtime Predicament
Neil's Generator
available May 27
Why does everybody make such a big to-do about Mordecai's Montana origins? Hell, it's a place just like any other, just bigger than most. And it's not like the (true) story of them recording in a YMCA bathroom really offers a proper "big sky" vibe, although I'm sure it had a more unique aroma than most studios. But on Neil's Generator things really do open up in a way where the juxtaposition between huge space/not so huge amount of people really makes sense. If the previous College Rock formed a friendly union between noisy Swell Mapsian clatter, post-garage Fall prickliness, and the all-American DIY basement joy of Mike Rep/Tommy Jay, "Neil's Generator" is the kind of loose, ragged glory as perpetrated by the Meat Puppets, Rayne, Dead Moon, and the Velvets staring into a cracked and filthy mirror. The guitars- and make no mistake, this is a GUITAR record, and a DAMN FINE one indeed!- retain a spiky waywardness, like if Robert Quine had recorded a Rough Trade single. But these songs have more space to breathe, and therefore function as a launching pad for some gleeful six-string abandon. Not sure how many rodeos the Bodish brothers have watched (or taken part in for all I know), but they certainly understand the risky notion that while sometimes you're in control of a guitar, other times the guitar can get the best of you. If they're not afraid to take the chance, you shouldn't be either. So hop on board.

PURLING HISS — Paisley Damage
Paisley Montage
Sizzling exercises from deep in the Hiss sub-basement. For twisted ears only.
A slight return to the red-hot, fried and twisted garage/psych/punk blasts we've come to expect from MIKE POLIZZE's PURLING HISS. He's way off the leash on this one, up Hiss creek with nobody to paddle home. Recorded in various Philadelphia-area basements and men's rooms over the course of 2007-11, the sessions were stunted and aborted as each successive borrowed practice amp blew smoke and crapped out under the strain of Polizze's fiery fret work. Originally a cassette-only release, but just about every tape was quickly scattered and smashed along the Schuykill Expressway after being left on the roof of the tour van. Edition of 500 copies.
available on green vinyl while supplies last.

Two special bird eggs laid in the nest of a lovely tree on the Berry College campus in Rome, Ga., are expected to hatch this week with two baby bald eagles making their first appearance in the world.
Clara Ruth Campbell of Cleveland has been keeping us updated with messages about this eagle family which has been watched with great interest by many both on and off the Berry campus.
"Mama and Papa Eagle took turns sitting on the eggs. Papa was seen carefully moving the eggs before sitting on them. After the snowfall began, Mama was spotted sitting on the eggs and then quickly getting back up to shake the snow off her before sitting back down. The caring parents handle their two eggs very gently," Clara Ruth told us.
If all went as anticipated, the baby eagles should have already arrived as we are going to press so we will get an update on them for next week's Sunday column.
The magnificent bald eagle, our national emblem, has been seriously threatened due to pesticide use, according to experts.
"Eating dead fish stranded on riverbanks and beaches has caused many bald eagles to absorb large amounts of pesticides which interferes with their calcium metabolism and results in thin-shelled and often infertile eggs," emphasize Audubon Society staffers in another sad example of the devastating effects of pesticide use.
n On the pet scene, we have recently received a call for help from a caring gentleman who has a 14-year-old dog that he had rescued as a puppy. Now the man is going to have to "go to a nursing home and I don't know for how long," he told us.
He doesn't have any family members who can care for his dog. Because the dog has never been around other dogs he isn't sure how his dog would react with them. Sadly, this is not an unusual situation and one that pet owners need to seriously contemplate to ensure beloved pets are safe, secure and happy for life.
n Margie Carter of ESP who has long rescued and fostered puppies and dogs prior to their adoption into screened forever homes, suggested providing ESP's vetting procedure for canines prior to taking them into our foster home care.
Here is our list which can be used by anyone adopting a new puppy or dog:
"Make a veterinary appointment to include: a general examination; DHLPP; rabies vaccination if old enough; bordetella; fecal (dewormer as needed); heartworm test (four-way); bath and grooming as needed with nail trimming included; spay/neuter if old enough with pain medications; Trifexis, heartworm preventive if heartworm test was negative.
"Ask your veterinarian what nutritious dog or puppy food you should be feeding since good health largely depends on the type of food you feed.
"Before leaving remember to get the rabies tag, the Trifexis which needs to be given once a month and any other prescribed medications. There is so much we can do to keep pets healthy and happy. Let's spread the word," said Margie.
n A sad call came this week from a caring lady who told of a mama dog and six puppies owned by a man in a neighboring county who lives next to one of her relatives.
She learned of this situation from her relative. She told us: "This man told my brother that he is going to keep one of the puppies but he wants to give up the others, and if he can't find homes for them within the next week, he will kill them."
How tragic to hear of such cruelty, and unfortunately, this man lives in a county that has no animal control or shelter.
n From Palm Beach County in Florida came a report from friends there of how their county has cut its pet euthanasia rate by one-third since 2010, two years after the county passed an ordinance requiring dogs and cats to be spayed and neutered. "This change helped," they said, "but it is estimated that some 9,000 dogs and cats are still being euthanized here each year. The new 'Countdown to Zero' holds promise," they added, "but the campaign desperately needs additional funding."
n From West Virginia's Dr. Scott Shalaway came news about the mystery of the snowy owl's mass arrival from the arctic into southern states.
Conservationists realized that the tremendous upsurge in snowy owl sightings could be "a once in a lifetime experience."
So a project began to capture and equip owls "with telemetry devices, and then monitoring them ... a costly and time-consuming project." But with donations arriving from all over the United States and other countries, owls have been banded in many states.
To learn more about the snowy owls check out: www.project-snowstorm.org. Since snowy owls have now been seen in 25 states, we hope maybe we will get lucky enough to see some in Tennessee.
Paws up this week to: Tanya Harmon; Chris Bradford; Anna Lee Watson; Debbie Galnett; Bob and Janice Tate; and all who rescued a pet with the assurance of providing a long, wonderful life in a forever home.

LUTCHER- Two elementary schools in St. James Parish may soon close because of declining enrollment.
A study commissioned by the St. James Parish School Board says a projected shift in residential population will also force the closure of Fifth Ward Elementary and Lutcher Elementary schools in the coming years.
The two schools had 182 and 183 prekindergarten through sixth-grade students enrolled, respectively, in 2012.
The study says Fifth Ward and Lutcher elementary schools are also projected to have the fewest number of enrolled students over the next 20 years.
Many of these families would relocate to Sixth Ward or the Vacherie areas

Moscow 22 July –It was a dawn start today for the F1 Clienti crew that had been working this weekend at the fifth running of the Moscow City Racing event, which brings together all that is best from the world of motor racing, in the heart of the Russian capital. Thanks to its partnership with Kaspersky Lab, this was Ferrari's third time at the event and its fourth street show run of the year, after visits to Rio de Janeiro, Warsaw and Jerusalem. This afternoon, the team headed back to base in Maranello after a weekend that involved more work than usual, which will also have a knock-on effect over the coming weeks.
It will take a lot of work to rebuild the F60, damaged yesterday afternoon, against the backdrop of the Kremlin. It was towards the end of the event that Kamui Kobayashi was caught out by the damp track and a bump, hitting the crash barriers at around 115 km/h. Fortunately, the Japanese driver was unhurt and no spectators in the stands near the crash were injured, but the same cannot be said for the F60, which was badly damaged on the right side. But the way the Scuderia prepares for this type of event meant that Kobayashi was back on track in a matter of minutes to carry on putting on a show for the crowd that had spent several hours in the rain, to see their favourites do their stuff at the wheel of the Formula 1 machines. Thanks to the availability of a spare car and the speed of the mechanics, he was able to do a final run of the day to salute the crowd. For some of the crew, it was a bit like the old days when they worked for the race team at the Grands Prix.
It involved reacting in exactly the same manner as was the case when a spare car could be used over the three days of a race weekend, not just in the case of a breakdown or accident, but also for strategic reasons, such as in the Sunday morning warm-up session. Actually, one doesn't have to go back to prehistoric times to remember the way it used to be in Formula 1, because the 30 minute pre-race warm-up was still around in 2002. Back then, it was usual to have one, or in the case of Monaco or races that might prove critical, two spare cars ready for use in the garage. So yesterday in Moscow was a bit of a blast from the past, maybe one that the crew could have been done without, but no doubt one that evoked some emotions, thinking back to past incidents.

Why is it that we are not that good at collaborating then, in the first place? Well, probably we have never been taught how to. And, maybe, we should.
Needless to say that in today's corporate world, collaboration is, indeed, now more important than ever. In the era of the Knowledge Economy, it can't be otherwise. It's no longer even a choice. For the business, nor for knowledge workers. It's an imperative. Actually, I would go even further: a matter of pure survival.

Atlanta's mayoral runoff may hinge on city's gay voters
A black candidate and a white candidate are facing off in Atlanta's mayoral runoff election Tuesday. But another bloc, gay voters, may well decide the outcome.
Tami Chappell/Reuters
Without a runoff election, Atlanta would already have its first white mayor in a generation.
Instead, a black candidate who once polled at 8 percent has drawn even in Tuesday's runoff race. Even more surprising: The outcome may well be determined by an emerging and gung-ho minority – gays and lesbians.
The runoff, a peculiarly Southern invention from the early 1900s designed to keep groups like the Ku Klux Klan from dominating one-party Democratic politics, has come to be seen as disadvantageous to blacks, fragmenting votes in cities where blacks don't have a majority. (Runoffs are held whenever a candidate can't rope a 50 percent majority in the general election.)
But if contests in Houston (which could elect its first openly gay mayor on Dec. 12) and Atlanta are any indication, the runoff has served to keep black candidates alive. It's now also injecting sexual dynamics into urban politics in these two leading Southern cities.
As part of that process, the century-old runoff system itself has been transformed, updated, and proven to be keenly relevant in locating the most representative man or woman to steer a city's future. The rap against runoffs are that they can favor flukes and that turnout for them tends to be much lower than in the general election.
"Whoever they were originally intended to advantage, it's fairly certain no one could have anticipated [runoff] elections like those being held this year, even a decade or so ago," writes Tom Baxter of the Southern Political Report.
