When most of us think of our company's information technology (IT) team, we often think of the folks we call in to retrieve our forgotten passwords or clear up a virus on our computers… or fix our mouse because it was unplugged. Between 2001 and 2011, more than 742,000 new IT jobs were created in the United States, an increase of 29.1% compared to employment as a whole which only grew 0.2%. There's no question that our IT teams are a valuable resource to a company, especially during that moment of panic when the dreaded blue screen of death pops up or the file we swore we saved disappears. However, is IT's only responsibility troubleshooting and fixing glitches? Continue Reading…
It's All in the Design: Converting Website Visitors into Customers
We all know that high amounts of quality website traffic is a good thing. We focus significant energy into tracking that traffic, keeping count and finding out where it is coming from. However, the number of retail website visitors means little if that traffic isn't converting into sales. Websites can be powerful tools when it comes to growing a business, especially when website visitors convert and become costumers.
So, how can we make that website traffic meaningful? How do you make the sale to an online costumer with whom you canít directly interact?
The secret to converting traffic to sales lies in part to the design of the website. The truth is that, if you aim to convert, not just any web design will do. Customers typically gravitate to stores with excellent customer service, a friendly online experience (everything works as it should) and good organization. The same is true of websites. When your website is user-friendly with support and contact information easy to find, your visitors are more likely to make a purchase. Continue Reading…
Planning Ahead for Smart Card Use in the U.S
We've heard the buzz about smart cards for years, but since they haven't made a big appearance in the United States, many retailers, Working Person's Store included, still haven't installed terminals that read them. EMV (Europay, MasterCard and Visa) smart cards have been around since 1994 and are widely used today in Europe. Is it time for American retailers to get on board?
While there were more than 1.5 million EMV-compliance cards being used around the world last year, U.S. card issuers and retailers have stuck to the traditional mag-stripe card. Things will be changing, however, since several U.S. banks have started issuing cards with both a mag-stripe and a chip. In fact, many are considering smart card rollouts within the next three to five years. Continue Reading…
The Construction Industry: A Leader in Economy Building
Construction Activity Is A Leading Economic Indicator
We can all agree that job creation is a hot topic when discussing the state of today's economy. But, which jobs are the most crucial to create? What industries, when prospering, can help stimulate the economy? Experts agree that an increase in construction jobs can offer significant economic stimulus.
In Indiana, one dollar spent on construction activity can generate about $2.50 in economic activity. That statistic alone shows how important an active construction industry can be. However, these days, not enough is being invested in construction which leaves the future looking uncertain. Currently, construction accounts for about 2.5 percent of the total economic activity in Indiana which is down from the typical 5 percent. The number of construction workers employed across the state is also down, by 13 percent to be exact, from its peak high in 2005. Working Person's Store recognizes how important these job are to working people and our economy. Continue Reading…
What is Social Media's Place At Work?
Have you ever been advised to "clean up" your Facebook profile or censor your tweets because your boss may be monitoring your social media activity? As much of a inconvenience as it can be, no one really wants their boss to know what they do on the weekends. However, Congress and more than a dozen states have been considering new laws that may protect your privacy when it comes to what you do online. This new legislation would restrict, or possibly forbid, employers from requesting social media passwords from their current employees or applicants regardless of weather or not these social media accounts were accessed during work hours or on company-owned devices.
There are valid arguments on both sides of this debate. For example, there is the case of the shooting in a New Jersey supermarket that killed two of its employees. The shooter, also an employee of the supermarket, had tweeted remarks that stated his intention. One could argue that, if these tweets were seen by managment, the tragedy could have been thwarted.

Alert- Lithium Battery Shipment Regulations to Change January 1, 2013
If you are a retailer in the twenty-first century, chances are you ship something that contains batteries. Here at Working Person's Store, we ship battery-operated flashlights, gloves, socks, and heated vests to destinations around the world. Some of the products we ship contain lithium batteries, which are considered a hazardous material because they can short circuit.
New regulations regarding the international air shipment of lithium batteries go into effect January 1, 2013. A good source for information about these new regulations is the International Air Transport Association, including its updated Lithium Battery Guidance Document. The Guidance Document as well as other helpful information, including pamphlets for consumers and shippers, is available online. Continue Reading…
Creating Collaborative Content Teams
Creating Collaborative Content Teams
Not so long ago a retailer's marketing materials included predictable options that were generated on a somewhat repetitive editorial schedule- spring, fall, and holiday catalogs; regular and seasonal advertisements placed to generate the biggest impact at the least cost; sales sheets for buyers; and perhaps some direct mail pieces timed to hit desks and counter-tops at just the moment potential buyers are expected to be most receptive.
But for today's e-tailer, the well-defined editorial calendars of yesterday that established the year-to-year routines of the marketing, merchandising and creative teams have been become more complex. In the virtual multi-channel marketplace, e-tailers face a never-ending challenge to meet the voracious demand for a continuous supply of updated content.
In this fast-paced climate of overlapping demands, no single approach will work for every every company. Every business has its own personality, culture, and organizational needs. The processes implemented, collaboration between the individual segments of each organization is crucial to its success. Neil Schuler of Schuler Creative Consulting suggests this three-step approach to creating a workable process:
- Identify the steps/tasks needed to complete a project and map out a timeline
- Identify the points of collaboration between the individual work teams and schedule face-to-face meetings at these points
- Establish a guide for each of these inter-team meetings, outline objectives, duration, required input, etc. Continue Reading…
Digital Retail Catalogs- Your Next Channel Of Distribution
So you have a print catalog and you have a website. What's next? To stay current with customer expectations, it's time to think about making a digital catalog your next channel of distribution.
Almost 90% of those who responded to a 2012 Catalog Spree survey indicated they would opt out of receiving some or all of their mailed print catalogs if the catalogs were available digitally. And over 55% would prefer to receive all of their catalogs digitally.
A digital catalog can be created simply by creating a PDF of your print catalog, but that really is just the start of an array of possibilities. Digital catalogs today increasingly include rich interactive content with audio, video, search functions and web links. The possibilities are endless, and meaningful content will increase your catalog's chances of being viewed. Continue Reading…
Mobile Devices Pose Benefits and Risks
Mobile Devices Pose Benefits and Risks
Are You Prepared?
Chances are, some of your corporate data, and likely even that of your customers and clients, is walking around in someone's back pocket or stuck in the side of someone's purse. Perhaps your sales manager even handed it over to her 13-year-old for a quick call home when the Saturday night movie lets out.
Every business needs to develop a mobile device policy, whether it conducts business transactions via mobile devices or not. Because whether it's the internal company contact list, a spreadsheet with last year's sales data or your customers' credit card numbers, some of your data is probably residing on the phones, notebooks, and tablets of your employees. And whether or not you have an operating policy to guide usage and access, they are probably using those same devices to access your network.
The statistics reported at MobiThinking by various analysts are staggering: Six billion mobile subscriptions held by an estimated 4.2 billion people! Itís time for all enterprises to take advantage of this growth and also protect both businesses and employees from risks inherent to such power. Continue Reading…
Will 2013 Be a Lucky Number for Entrepreneurs?
Will 2013 Be a Lucky Number for Entrepreneurs?
With retail sales inching upward in advance of the holiday shopping season and economic indicators looking better than they have in recent years, we're wondering whether 2013 will prove to be a turnaround year for the economy. We certainly hope so and we're taking a few minutes away from flurry to think about what has sustained us through these tough times.
Stores.org reported earlier this year that market research leader IBISWorld identified these retail sectors as the top five prospects for 2012, based on start-up costs, barriers to entry, and estimated 2012 revenue: tires; handbags, luggage, and accessories; art; furniture; and specialty foods. Not only did the decidedly unglamorous tire dealership top the list, its expected growth of 10% is almost double that of the leading trailer, handbags and related goods, at 5.5%. Continue Reading…

Mary Kate Hartmann will raise the American flag marking the beginning of this year's Bud Run for Charity.
The Baldwinsville native was chosen to honor her late fianc (c), Evan Schoeberlein.
"Last year I asked Evan to do the honors, but unfortunately, he was going to be in Boston that day having surgery for a recurrence of Ewing's Sarcoma, a rare type of cancer usually found in children and young adults," said Susan Bertrand, founder of Maureen's Hope Foundation. "I told Evan that if Maureen's Hope was the recipient the following year in 2008, the honor was his."
Despite his initial diagnosis, Evan was an inspiration. He went on to graduate from the University of Rochester with a degree in biology. He also fell in love and became engaged to Hartmann.
"His courage, strength and vision of hope represented everything our foundation is about," Bertrand said. "Evan endured chemotherapy treatments throughout this past year and had hoped his battle was won. He sent the foundation a thank you note for the support we were able to offer him throughout his journey and he wrote 'P.S. I will see you at the Bud Run!'"
As it turned out, Maureen's Hope was again chosen as this year's recipient and Evan was going to raise this year's flag. Sadly, he passed away on July 24 at the young age of 25.
"I always say our vision of hope is not just about achieving a desired outcome, it is about the journey, the day to day experiences. Evan's journey was filled with hope and his fianc (c) Mary Kate, will raise the flag at this years Bud Run in his memory and in memory of all those battling a courageous fight with cancer," Bertrand said.
An inspiration
Bertrand first met Evan when she delivered a Basket of Hope and Comfort to him.

What are your names for the other women in your case. I remember some pretty hilarious ones...
Former 80s Icon wishful thinking
someone once said twat waffle and I fell off my chair laughing.
And I love that my autocorrect now recognizes Whoreible as a word.
Um...isn't it?
Also, I will go with "nothing" and "nobody" sometimes, especially when I was ending things with DD's dad. He told me OW was nobody and it meant nothing. So when she called, I would sometimes say, "Hey, your nobody called." "Hey, nothing sent you an email this morning."
At least the current man "only" cyber-cheated.
"Love means never having to say you're sorry."
it is reserved especially for her? not the many remorseful, unknowing OW here/out in the real world!!!!

Does anyone remember the tv show from the 70's, "Fernwood Tonight", later known as "America Tonight"? It was co-hosted by Martin Mull and Fred Willard.
"Fernwood Tonight", began as the summer replacement for the show, "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman" and was created to find out just how offensive could TV get. (Obviously the precursor for so many shows to have followed.)
Was it sacrilegious? Tasteless? Outrageous? You bet it was. The satirical, deliberately weird "talk show," parody, "Fernwood Tonight," was the summer replacement for "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman." At the time it was a truly groundbreaking show. The series, which was another of Norman Lear's groundbreaking shows, was a version of every talk show ever broadcast. That summer it was running in the usual "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman" time slot.
The show was such a hit it soon replaced "Hartman" and was translated into "Fernwood USA," which began in September of 1977. Thus, the original series metastasized into two – both without Louise Lasser, who had other floors to wax.
"Fernwood Tonight" was cheerfully designed to infuriate practically anyone who can turn on a TV. Its full-blooded premise was in bad taste, sick humor, and "All Those Things You Don't Do On Television." Or didn't used to do.
"We will offend the sensitivities of a number of Americans, for which we apologize out front," said Alan Thicke, a jolly Canadian, comedy-writer sort, acting as chief script writer and producer, "but we're not being discriminating in our satire. We're offending everybody, regardless of race, creed, color, or income level."
That's where yours truly entered the picture. At the time, I was getting quite a bit of publicity as the Special Project coordinator of Children of the Night, mostly because I would travel around giving lectures about prostitution. Actually, it was called C.A.T. at the time (California's Advocacy for Trollops), but I digress.
One day I received a telephone call from none other than Alan Thicke. He had heard I was a writer, and he wanted to know if we could "get together and write something for this new show?" Oh gosh, I had to think about it long enough to pick my jaw up off of the ground before saying, "Yes!"
The deal was I would go to his home in the San Fernando Valley. I truly didn't know much about this man, except that I had worked with his actress/wife on Days Of Our Lives, Gloria Lorring. But to have the opportunity to work on this show, was far too tempting for me not to go and meet him, surely he wouldn't try something stupid?
His house at the time was a white antebellum style mansion, although I remember it as being very sparsely furnished, as if they were either moving in or moving out. He answered the door dressed very casually, his dark hair immaculately coifed, and wearing white socks on his feet. Funny the things which stand out in my memory. I told him who I was, and we shook hands before he led me into his home-office/family room, and offered me a drink of soda as I sat down on the couch. I refused it, afraid I would end up laughing and have it spew out of my nose. That would be more embarrassment than this young girl could stand.
I was still really curious what he had in mind, hoping like hell it wasn't some phony deal and I'd be exploited. In Hollywood, it happened all the time, and with me, a few times in particular...like the time I was spotted coming out of a building on Sunset Blvd. and was recognized from a newspaper clipping...but I'll save that story for another day.
Alan was the real deal though and soon he was pumping me for information about prostitution, the topic for the show he had in mind. I pretty much gave him antecdotes drawn from my personal experiences, he was eagerly jotting down notes. I felt at ease with him and we shared more than a few laughs as we found it easy to make fun of the topic. I threw out my own "witticisms" that I used during my own college lectures. He must have liked them, because after our meeting he told me that he was going to be using some of my material for the show. This only meant one thing to me; I would be getting paid!
About a week later, Alan called and told me to come to the taping of the show. "Of course, I'd love to." I was hopeful there was a good reason for it; not just to filling up an audience seat.
I was correct in my assumption. It was a taping for "America Tonight". As it turned out, Martin Mull (as Barth Gimble) and Fred Willard (as sidekick Jerry Hubbard) ended up using one of my lines in their opening volley.
Curious what it was? Of course you are.
"If you really want to do away with prostitution, you will let the government subsidize it; like they do the farmers. You will pay the prostitutes NOT to turn tricks. That's how you clean up this problem."
And that was my first television writing credit.
Hope you get on a jury!
Glad you're keeping yourself busy while waiting for the wheels of justice.
i'd be glad not to turn tricks for money. i'm already doing that for free.
And "Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman", "Fernwood Tonight" and "America Tonight" occupy a warm spot in my darkly jocular heart.
As some of your probably know, Martin Mull, besides being a comic talent is also world-class artist.
Mary Hartmann, Fernwood, America ... they all launched a lot of talent. Let's not forget the mayor of Fernnwood, Merle Jeeter, played by Dabney Coleman. How about Doris Roberts and Mary Kay Place; both were regulars. Kenneth Mars, the original Nazi in the movie, "The Producers", had a recurring role; Jim Varney, also. The list goes on and on.
Norm Lear was a genius who changed the face of TV, and launched a lot of careers. But I think the trio of shows mentioned above was his finest work, certainly his most outrageous. Buff, you were blessed to have been involved.
So Buffy, I had no idea we were being graced with such a renowned lady.
RATED for the surprises life gives you
Once again I'm amazed at the life of BuffyW...
Great story!
Walter--I almost made it on, whew! Thanks.
Life is good--I had just posted when I got called up. Just now got home. Everyone had computers.
Cap'n--Lol. Thanks for coming by.
Scanner--Fred is part of Christopher Guests' ensemble for his very talented and funny films.
bobbot--I could probably go through all the dvds of the show and find it, but not at the point I have that much free time. Glad you remembered though.
Skip--I'm shocked these shows would appeal to you :) Yes, I knew that about Martin, world class...like you!
Ralph--I refuse to watch those shows now, there is no clever writing, just people showing their worst sides.
Walter--That was surprising to see when I got home!
Mr. M--Thank you. I'm blushing.
Rod--I have to agree, great shows that did change tv, and I was very blessed.
Bees Tone--It cracked up the jury room too! Thanks!
Boomer Bob--Well, not exactly renown, but nice to have been a part of something so innovative, no matter how small!
Ron--I can understand why, thank you for taking time now to read my story.
OE--You know, now that I think of it he did! And I was fixated on his socks, lol.
Silkstone--Thank you for the edit...I didn't have time before they called my name. Fixed it.
Robin-- I hear you, it was a different time for sure. Thanks for coming by.
Duane--I'm glad, me too.
Old new lefty--Thank you, and I enjoy your stories too!
Sourie--Thanks! Nice of you to come by.
Trig--You guys make me want to remember these things, thank you!
Stim--Never was a star, but sure rotated around them! Thank you.
Michael--Now that you mention it, it was!! Thanks :)
"Children of the Night", Hmm I do believe I was one of them. However as you like to put it, " I'll save that story for another day".
Buffy, sounds like you have been "around the block" as many times as I have!
We're also big fans of Fred Willard's work in Christopher Guest films. His characters always seem to be a clever variation on his Fernwood Tonight role—our favorite incarnation being as Buck Laughlin in Best in Show.
BTW, have you seen Louise Lasser in Todd Solondz's Happiness? We suspect Solondz was significantly influenced by both of these shows, so perhaps you had something to do with inspiring his black comedies.
Thanks for sharing this fun episode in your career, Buffy!

Good Morning!!!!!!
30-Somethings - Week of Feb 23rd!!!!!!!View Full Version : Week of Feb 23rd!!!!!!! RoadRunner 02-23-2003, 11:39 AM Good Morning!!!!!! LBH 02-23-2003, 11:52 AM Good Morning All! Squirmy is in his bouncy seat "growling", you know, that demon baby sound?! :lol: He's possibly constipated...hasn't pooped since around noon or so yesterday. I know that's not that unusual for a baby, but his pushing and grunting and making a fuss. Thermometer up the bum isn't helping, and neither is the gas drops. One of the girls on the baby board said her Dr. told her to use suppositories, so I may call my ped. and see if I can do that. She used Fleet Babylax, less than half a dose, and it worked immediately! I think I could handle him being fussy if it was just to be fussy, but not when he's in pain like that and I can't help him...just give me drugs! Mom came over last night and stayed with him while DH & I went grocery shopping. :lol: Our big night out! Today I am really going to try and avoid all dairy. I bought a little container of soy milk last night to try, it tastes disgusting, but it's tolerable in my coffee. The choc. soy milk was OK to drink. Not sure I could handle it in my cereal though...maybe the chocolate in my cereal would be good?! :devil: Oh well, time to feed...have a great day all! KarenK 02-23-2003, 12:00 PM Good Morning all, We had a good time in Atlantic City. We came home $175 richer!! That is very unusual for us. DH won buckets (ok, $300 but to me *that's* buckets!!) playing multi-action blackjack. I went and played with him for awhile and I won $100. We played away most of the profits but I made him leave before we lost it all. :D. Lauren: Hope Petey has the poops and feels better soon. Hope everyone has a good day. I think we are going to head to PA to DH's base to get his new rank insignias sewn onto his uniforms. He's such a hoot with all this military stuff. KarenK 02-23-2003, 10:06 PM Hi, Just a quickie: Lauren: I found this thread on Storknet about BF and dairy. http://www.storknotes.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=48329 thought there might be some helpful info for you. Hope everyone is having a great evening!! LBH 02-24-2003, 03:44 PM Karen- Thanks! Looks like it's not the Lactose, but the cow proteins that I can't have. :( Oh well. I'm trying hard to stay away from all dairy. Haven't had my OJ either. Petey is sleeping right now...was awake for hours screaming this AM. :( I was close to the end of my rope, I'm glad he finally went to sleep, because I was in tears trying to deal. Sorry I keep venting. :( KarenK 02-24-2003, 10:49 PM Hi guys, We finally went grocery shopping so I have lots of SF stuff and veggies and fruit in the house. Yippee!! We were supposed to go shopping and then make dinner at home but DH was *so* hungry that we went out to dinner and then shopping!! We went to Charlie Brown's and I had a huge steak with lots of veggies. My sugar is only 88 and for the first time in a long time I am not going to bed hungry. :D Lauren: Sorry that Petey is not doing so great. I hope he feels better soon. I hope that you feel better soon too!! I would offer to baby sit on the weekend for you but I don't want to give DH the vapors!! Hope everyone is having a super evening. LBH 02-25-2003, 10:08 AM Hi All, Karen- :lol: Thanks for the offer!! Glad you got a good meal in, and the right food in the house. Must've been all that protein filling you up! Hey Karen, are you working today? If not, do you feel like meeting up at BRU?? I think I'm planning on getting there around 12:30-1:00. Give me a call if you wanna! Everyone busy this week? I'm showered and dressed and waiting for Peter to wake up so I can give him a bath. We're going to my mom's office to show him off today. The girls are dying to see him. Figured since I'll be in the area, I'll hit BRU for a few things. :p Not that I have the money to be shopping, but there are a few things I need! I was soo upset this AM, DH got up with Peter at around 5:30 (mind you, I had just fed him at 4:00!), and was going nuts looking for the bottles, because the two small ones I always use were in the BR used during the night. I hadn't planned on him getting up with him, so I didn't bring them to the kitchen after the 4 AM feeding to wash and refill. So I guess he used the big bottle that I use for the pump, but he couldn't find a nipple for it...I had put all the bottles and stuff in a drawer the other day, in an effort to clean up!...anyway, he took a bag of BM out of the fridge that was defrosting, and I'm not sure if he used any of it, but when I came into the kitchen around 7:30, there was BM all over the counter!! I just started bawling, that was 6 oz. of BM, and RR can tell you, it's liquid gold, so to lose it was devastating! :cry: I just bawled while I sopped it up. Let me tell you, it's not beyond a nursing mother's thoughts to try and get it back into the bottle, but of course it's not good anymore, so into the garbage it went. :cry: Anyway, they make these bottles that are specifically for storing milk in the freezer, and I wanna see if the have the set at BRU. It's a set of 10 (or 12?) and a wire shelf thing to store them on, like that rolls them down, so you use first in, first out...kwim? Oh well, at least I pumped almost 9 oz. this AM...Have a great day all!! RoadRunner 02-25-2003, 03:28 PM Hello!! Having a rough one this morning..She has cried all day...REally miserable with those eyes and runny nose today...I have driven around, carried her, sang and she is just irritable..THe only sinus med that I can give her is saline nose drops..That doesnt help much!!!!My mom made me angry cuz she thinks it is the breast milk and i need to put her on formula..If it was that, she wouldnt sleep all night without crying(wakes up 3-4hrs for eating) and she would not be almost 11 lbs....She is sleeping on boppy pillow in my lap now..soo I am content... Lauren--U R right about the liquid gold..Dh's attitude is "but it is free and there is plenty more where it came from"..*L* They have no clue, but I love him all the same!!!! Karen-yeah on the sugars!!! Keep it up!!!!That baby will be here before U know it!!! Hello to all!!! RR KarenK 02-25-2003, 04:35 PM Hi guys, Lauren: Yeah, I was working today. Sorry to miss the fun though. It would be nice to go baby shopping with someone who actually knew what I was talking about. DH is honestly trying, but he has no clue. RR: Sorry Kaylee isn't well. It must totally suck not to be able to fix what's wrong. Whew, don't think I'm looking forward to that either!!! No one but us has been around for awhile. Do you think we are scaring everyone off with baby talk? I hope not. Come back guys!! I'll be good, promise!! I haven't gained anymore weight so far. I probably won't with the way I'm eating now!! Trying to keep the sugar down is good for not gaining (well, because of eating anyway!! I guess baby will add some eventually!!) Have a great evening all!! RoadRunner 02-26-2003, 09:24 AM Karen--I thought the diabetes was a blessing cuz it helped me with eating right and keeping weight gain to a minimum..If I do the pg thing again(hmmm..if not already :?: :?: )then I will start off with the diet!!! Lauren/Karen--check out http://www.signwithme.com/main_signs.asp Kind of neat thing!!! Everyone--we promise..diet talk only!!!! Come back and post!!!!:p :p :p gotta run..monitor says it is time!!Waaaaaaaaaaaaa RR RoadRunner 02-26-2003, 01:45 PM Udate...Kaylee woke up with really nasty eyes, fever and screaming..I brought her to the Pedi and she has an ear infection..Poor baby...she suctioned out nasty yuck from her ears..Now I know why she has been soo miserable... RR lizzard_h 02-26-2003, 02:50 PM Hi all, I'm back from my vacation in Tahoe & Reno. It was beautiful and tons of fun. The weather was sunny and perfect most of the trip and the last day it snowed. I was so happy cuz I haven't seen it snow in forever. I skied three days, went for a 45 minute walk along Lake Tahoe, and ran 20 minutes thru the Dallas airport with lots of carry-on so I feel like I got lots of exercise. However, I ate freely and drank lots so it will probably even itself out. We got in last night and I forced myself to come to work today. I'm totally exhausted and can't think straight but I wanted to stop in and say hi. I'll catch up as soon as I can. KarenK 02-26-2003, 04:51 PM Hi all, Just a quickie today. I have a doctor's appt and then breastfeeding class tonight. I'm already exhausted so I'm gonna be dead by the end of the evening. Class isn't over until 9:30. UGH!! RR: IF NOT PG ALREADY?????? Dang woman!! :eek: I'm sorry Kaylee is not well but at least you know what's wrong now and can get it fixed!! I know I hate it when my ears hurt. She must have been really miserable. I tried to follow the link you posted but it wouldn't work. Please type it again. Liz: Glad you had a good time skiing. It'll probably be 3 years or so before I can go again. DH expects me to be skiing next year. Wonder who he thinks is going to keep the baby? :D Have a great evening!!! LBH 02-27-2003, 07:32 AM Hi All, Well, I'm up early...Peter was up at 5:30 to eat, and thankfully went back to sleep...it wasn't looking to promising for about 15 minutes there. :rolleyes: I decided to stay up because I have to eat breakfast...something I don't often get, other than a banana and coffee...and clean. RR- Poor Kaylee, hope she's feeling better soon!! :( That's signing sight is pretty cool, I've heard it really works too. On the Boppy...Peter loves his boppy! He'll just hang out there in it, on the sofa, looking around at blinking lights on the computer, or like yesterday, he was watching TV for a few minutes! :lol: I use it for the middle of the night feedings too, just put it on the bed and him on it, and feed. I got a call yesterday from a company called Silver Sand Photography because they said when I bought my package of pics at the hospital from Growing Family, there was a coupon or something for a free, no obligation 5x7 and additional sitting. So the guy is gonna be here at 9:30 this AM!! :eek: I was like, uh, my house is in nooo condition for guests, and that's early!! She said don't worry, they only need about 5 ft. of space, and no one's gonna see your house in the pic! Whatever...at least it'll get me cleaning!! Now...to decide what to dress him in! Karen- Oh well, we'll have to get together some other time and do the BRU/baby talk thing! :lol: How was the DRs. appt. and class? Did they show you the video of the baby climbing up to the mother's breast at birth?! I thought that was the neatest thing, and actually tried to see if Peter would do that, but he wasn't too interested in nursing right away...should've taken that as a sign! :rolleyes: Liz- Welcome back! Glad you had a great time! I'm sure the food/drink/exercise will at least even out! Have a great day all! RoadRunner 02-27-2003, 09:09 AM Well...better night!!! I gave the tylenol and the fever never went above 101...The antibiotics have kicked in and hopefullly we will have a better day!!! I felt bad, cuz the Pedi said ear infections could happen cuz they lie down and breast feedor eat...Bad mom..guilty cuz some nights I was too tired to pick her up....Never again!!!! Karen--LOL...I would panic....What can I say..I had a great Valentines night!!!!!:devil: :devil: Relying on the fact now that I breast feed exclusively and there is no way!!!!:p :p Lauren--Hope the photo session goes well!!! At our 3 month pics, I am dressing Kaylee in her Detroit Redwing Jersey!!!I want to surprise DH!!! If it is too big, I will catch the 4 month pics in it... Well..minimum excercise to report..Checking healthclubs closer to my house for prices etc...My old club(membership exp May) is really out of the way from Daycare...Wow..life changes!!!! Off to scrapbook while she sleeps!!! RR LBH 02-27-2003, 01:23 PM UGH, what a nightmare!! The guy was supposed to be here at 9:30, didn't get here til 10:30!! :mad: I went from a happy, content baby to a cranky baby, to a sleeping baby by the time he got here!! He's lucky he was nice, because I was livid!! Apparently the girl that called and scheduled it didn't tell me that they have an hour or so to get here. :rolleyes: He screamed for a good part of it, but the guy thinks he got a few good ones out of like 15 pics! Of course I was tired and leaking and wishing for a shower by the time he left. :mad: RR- Glad Miss Kaylee had a better night! I have read that about feeding them laying down. I have to remind DH not to do that sometimes. We've been using the boppy lately though, and he seems to like that. I have a couple coupons for Curves. They opened two locations in my town, it's two different owners, so I may join again, but on a monthly basis this time...not gonna make that mistake again!! They also opened a WW a couple miles from here, so I'll probably join there too, especially since they've got free registration right now. Off to get lunch while it's quiet! KarenK 02-27-2003, 04:54 PM Hi guys, Lauren: Sorry about the picture guy. I'd panic if someone wanted to come take pictures in my house. Geesh. I haven't done more than scoop up the dog hair in way too long. The doula is supposed to come on Sunday so I have some major cleaning to do before then. I took off tomorrow because our cencus is low and because of the possible snow storm. Now I will have plenty of time to clean. :lol: Nope, no video on a baby climbing mom's boob. That must've been interesting. Just the basics which, I guess, is all they can really do until the little ones get here. RR: Glad Kaylee is feeling some better. I thought we were supposed to lay them down to eat at night so we could get some sleep too. That's what the lady said last night when demonstrating the different positions. Hmm. Guess I'm lucky to have you guys going first!! I'm going to have a manicure and pedicure tonight then I go see the Diabetic Counselor. Another fun packed evening!! Hope ya'll have a great one!! LBH 02-28-2003, 08:51 AM Hi All, We had a reunion last night at our childbirth instructor's house. Unfortunately only two other couples showed up besides us. I was really anxious to hear the birth stories of the other girls, because all but one of them used the same midwife as us. The one girl was on her 3rd child and she said her experience was good, but the MW's personality was what she was looking for, she didn't need someone to "hold her hand" basically. She was in the hospital during the day. The other girl had some issues with her attitude, like we did, but not nearly as bad...she was also there during the day, but 1st thing in the AM. The CB instructor couldn't believe what we went through and how the MW treated us! Anyway, it was fun seeing all the babies...even though there were only 2 others. Today I have to finish cleaning/moving furniture in the LR. It's a disaster since I shoved everything off the coffee table for the photographer yesterday! DH gave me an idea though, he knows I like moving furniture around. :lol: Now, hopefully Peter will stay asleep or entertained long enough for me to do it! Hopefully moving this furniture around will give me more room in the LR, so I can start doing some exercise tapes...either Gilad or the Pilates tape DH bought. Have a great day all! :D RoadRunner 02-28-2003, 09:32 AM Started checking out healthclubs on the phone yesterday..There is a great one almost next door to the daycare that I am really interested in...I am just having stress about spending time with Kaylee rather than working out..I even considered jogging in the neighborhood every evening when DH came home and getting a jog stroller but my mom is freaking out about a serial killer around here which I am too soo that is out.....:?: :?: :?: I have to get into something..and i guess the club is safer. Kaylee is still so miserable with high fever and irritability..Bummer, cuz I wanted to take her to her first Mardi Gras parade tonight...Not worth it though!! Would rather her get well!!!! Have a good one..Off to get breakfast and pump while she is asleep!! RR LBH 02-28-2003, 10:43 AM I finally caught some smiles on camera!! :D KarenK 02-28-2003, 06:34 PM Hi guys, I spent the day shopping with MIL. Last weekend I had found some stuff for Alex at Bloomindales that I thought was really cute by Little Me. I got it because I had a gift certificate. Well, today at Baby Depot at Burlington Coat factory I found the SAME stuff for LESS than 1/2!!! I'm going back to Bloomies and return the other stuff. I can't believe the difference in cost. The blanket was 22 at Bloom and 9.98 at BD!! Same exact one. Lauren: Cute picture!! You are getting good at the attchment thing! Are you by Short Hills Mall? Planning a trip out there tonight to return this stuff!! RR: Please by all means go to the health club!! Sorry to hear that there's such an awful person loose in your neighborhood. Hope Kaylee is feeling better soon. Have a great evening all!! LBH 02-28-2003, 10:27 PM Yeah, Karen, I'm like 15 minutes or so from there!! Too bad I didn't get on here earlier, we coulda met up. Oh well...one of these days. I love Little Me, I think it's my favorite brand of baby things! :D I'm not usually a brand type person, but they just haver the cutest things! I was in WalMart with my mom today, and the sales girl told me it's Baby Week there. They have cases of Huggies on sale for 15.97!! Of course they didn't have size 1's, but I will check back before March 9th when it's over. Bought a Super Mega pack (136) for 16.97 though...which I think is good. Had I realized it was soo nice out...OK cold, but not really windy, and it was sunny...I would've bundled us both up and gone for a walk. I'm really in exercise/diet mode. I'm going to start checking the weather every day, and getting out if it's decent. My mom bought me a couple light weight sweaters and a pair of khakis at WalMart, for going back to work. I bought a new pair of jeans, because I can't find all the clothes I put away!! Think they may be in mom's basement. I'm sick of wearing sweats!! Write that one in the record books, because I've always lived in sweats! I'm dying to put some jeans on though. RoadRunner 03-01-2003, 10:51 AM Good Morning!!! Well...12 hrs and no tylenol and no fever and she is smiling!!! She slept from 9pm until 2:40 am!!! I almost panicked when I saw the clock when she cried a little..Soo far, I have a happy baby this morning..still pulling on the left ear, but much better!!!! I brought her to her first MG parade last night..IT was nice cuz it runs in front of my friends house, so we watched from the window!! She laughed and cooed at the lights, I bundled her up and walked to the street but that ended cuz she was getting bombed by beads and it was hitting her in the face and I couldnt grab them quick enough!!The other kids love the parades soo that was the only reason I got her out!!!I have friends getting them to the parades today and me and Kaylee are having mom/daughter time!!! WEll..I made the appointment Monday at the healthclub..I hope daycare is open on Monday/Tues since the others are off school for MG....Dh wants us to work out together, but I am way too intimidated by men at a club and will pay the extra to be comfortable....THe women in coed clubs dress soo provacative and I hate it..This club forbids thongs!!!yeah!!!! Ok..off to fix cream of wheat!!! The perfect meal to drink in a cup while holding the baby!!!! RR KarenK 03-01-2003, 11:27 AM Good Morning All!! DH and I have gotten into a bad habit of staying up until 2 AM and then sleeping til 10 on the weekend. I think we better start to get over this habit. It messes me up for the work week. :D RR: Glad that Kaylee is feeling better. The parade sounds like fun. I would like to go to Mardi Gras once but I don't do big crowds all that well. I get claustrophobic. One reason I've never done the Thanksgiving parade or Times Square for New Year's Eve here. Lauren: I should have PM'd you about the mall thing. On the way there I was like "Duh, you could've PM'd her!!" Hope you guys are having a super great day. Today is cleaning day to get ready for the Doula tomorrow. vBulletin® v3.6.7, Copyright ©2000-2015, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.

Can you get stawberry plant to root from cuttings? If so - any advise? I belive I have ozark strawberry. |

"cuttings" will not work. The plant will form "pups" or plantlets which will root (with out assistance)& produce new plants |
Strawberry plants send out long string-like runners and these form new plantlets at every node if they find favorable ground. Some of my floral strawberry plants will send these out over 5 feet away from the mother plant. You can often get 50-100 baby plants a season. George |
Sorry for the seeking clarification - new to this. In other words -- I should just look for new plants to appear in near the original plants? Should I cut the new plants and move them to where I want or should I take cutting of roots to get started? |
Just watch them. When you see these long runners forming steer them toward open soil, and when they start to form leaves at the nodes, make sure they get contact with the soil at that node to root. The runner will continue to grow longer and nodes further from the mother will start the process. They will make several plants you can move to desired locations. Just be sure to let them get well rooted. George |
Jmcst25, You can get some idea of what to look for at this link. The strawberry plants send out long runners and the new plants appear along those runners. MM |
I love strawberry plants, partly because they are so prolific when it comes to putting off runner plants. From what I understand, you can split the crowns, guide the runner plants, or plant seeds to propagate strawberries (but the growing from seed isn't reliable). The website www.StrawberryPlants.org has a lot of stuff related to this. Two pertinent posts: |
The runners would be just as happy growing in pots if you want to move them to a new site or give them away. Al |

Sefer Torah
Sefer Torah
In Judaism, the Pentateuch (see Torah), when written in Hebrew by a qualified calligrapher on vellum or parchment and enshrined in the Ark of the Law in a synagogue. It is used for public readings during services on the Sabbath, Mondays, Thursdays, and religious festivals. Sephardic Jews often enclose it in a wooden or metal case; Ashkenazi Jews cover it with an ornate mantle of cloth decorated with ritual ornaments. Its scrolls are handled according to prescribed ritual that reflects the esteem in which the scrolls are held.

Hi all! Every so often I get a bug in my ear to change things around. Gardens have the habit of overflowing and needing to be shared! I think we'd have to arrange a dig. I work at night, so to anyone's convenience, any day from morning until about 3:00 when I must leave for work. I am off Thursdays and Fridays. I live on the south side of Bowie, or out 214, depending upon what's more familiar to you. I have the following things to offer: All I look for in return is dirt. For example, Big Lots has 2cu of potting soil available for $8.00. Or, if your own soil isn't clay, bring me some laundry baskets of that! Then you can take plants home in your baskets. Feel free to respond here, or email me directly if anything interests you. I hate to waste plants... |

"Stupid ornamental grasses" had me spitting coffee. I'm a good ways away (Woodbridge, VA) but this sounds like fun. Let me see if I can rope in a friend for the ride and I will be in touch. |
LOL! I'm an easy day trip. You could also come across the Woodrow Wilson and plan an outlet mall shopping visit, since you'll pass National Harbor! If you're interested in grasses, bring a seriously sharp shovel (or a back hoe) because mine are dull. Grasses despise being moved, but turn around and behave like they're not going to admit they were disturbed by thriving Immediately. I look forward to it. |
I'd be interested. Could come down sometime next week or on the weekend. |
Chris, Thursday or Friday morning-ish would be the best for me. I work at night and those are the days I have off. It's really up to you, though, as to when you feel like digging! Why don't you email me directly? |

Corvil Extends Latency Management Platform for Direct Market Access and High Speed Trading Services
latency management systems for financial markets, today extended the
capabilities of its CorvilNet solution to include in-depth analysis of
latency and trading performance for the entire trading loop. This includes
end-to-end and segment-by-segment monitoring of latency of an order as it is
sent from the buy-side to sell-side, processed and routed through to the
final liquidity destination. The enhanced functionality allows measurement of
the algorithm latency from receipt of the tick update to issue of the order
("tick to trade") and the matching engine latency from receipt of the order
to update of the market data feed ("trade to tick"). Support for proprietary
applications and protocols is provided by the CorvilNet Software Development
Kit (SDK), a self-contained software development and test environment, which
is also released today.
CorvilNet provides real-time analysis and understanding of the
performance of trade order flow, market data, the underlying infrastructure
and execution venues. CorvilNet identifies individual orders, by order ID or
other application-layer content, and pinpoints exactly where latency is
occurring across multiple, transforming hops. Latency measurement across
Direct Market Access (DMA) systems including all internal hops and decision
latencies is supported. New orders, modifies, cancels, etc. are correlated
with all responses for complete order tracking and market response time
The Schneider Group has been using the new release of CorvilNet to
enhance their high-performance trading services. "Our focus is to provide our
clients with the fastest connectivity and lowest-latency trading
infrastructure possible. CorvilNet has been very effective in providing us
with real-time latency measurements from our traders through our applications
and out to the venues. This in-depth analysis and understanding of latency at
a very granular level enables us to quickly take action to optimize the
performance of our entire trading services,"
Officer, The Schneider Group.
Significant benefits of the new CorvilNet release include: - Ability to provide clients with details of end-to-end order processing latency for the market open and close, for the past day, past week, or continuously via a live portal. - Rapid detection and resolution of potential client latency issues before they become a problem for the client. - Verification you are getting the speed and performance improvements expected from your trading applications, infrastructure and services, and that the improved performance continues as your business scales.
"The addition of complex application latency tracking and the new SDK
provide our customers with the platform to understand trading performance in
real time and at scale," said
Corvil. "CorvilNet continues to be the only product on the market supporting
integrated application and network latency management and the new release
delivers even greater benefit to providers of high speed execution and
trading services."
The CorvilNet DMA / Trading Services upgrade and CorvilNet SDK are
available today.

Bought these shifters as spares because have been so happy with their performance over the past 5 years. So bought spares before they are superseded and no longer avaliable. The rubber grip is longer lasting on the X9 more than the X7 and also a much lighter shift in conjunction with the X9 rear mech. The only draw back with any grip shift is they are difficult to shift when wet. Something you get used to and adjust for. Paired with ergon GP1 grip shift grips they make a great gear set up. You can even shift while riding out of the saddle, something you cant do with rapid fire. Highly recommended
Positive shifting, with excellent comfy grips and super tough. They are simple to install and set up, look fantastic and function brilliantly. These were the final parts of my most recent build project - great value and finished the job perfectly.
Wow, what an improvement over their absolute sh**e shifters, had x7 and x9 both replaced twice on front and rear and still stick!! But these no problems as yet, got to put them through winter but great so far. Take some getting used to but should last ages even in a crash!
Third set of SRAM X9 twist shifters I've now bought for various bikes - absolutely flawless shifting, super-lightweight and ultra reliable. Why anyone would choose trigger shifters over these is beyond me.
better than I remembered twist shifters, changed from rapidfire due to a thumb injury and will now swap my other bikes too.
Really fast changing and positive shifts, really impressed.
This is my first set of twist shifters having always used Shimano in the past. I love them and would never go back to standard shifters. I can get instant access to the whole cassette with precise multiple shifts and always know which gear I'm in due to the clear dials. They get criticised by some riders for shifting by mistake but I've never had that. 5 stars!!.
Well built
A really good piece of kit works really well .They speak for them selfs at a god price as well

New Executive Director for AIA San Mateo County
Posted May 6, 2014 12:00 AM by René Peraza 5 comments
I'm excited about joining the AIASMC as Executive Director. Because I know Martha D'Amico personally, I cannot replace her — simply succeed her.
As you may know, I've worked closely with the Chapter's leadership over these past two-and-a-half years on the various communications and event announcements. Although a Graphic Designer by education and trade, I've worked in tandem with [and for] Architects for over fifteen years (CSS Architecture, Bartos Architecture), and have a genuine interest in your honorable trade; to me, the world of communication design and architectural space seem intrinsically paired.
Not bashful in public advocacy, I've been a recurring speaker at Chabot College's Introduction to Graphic Design Careers lecture series, as well as on-camera narrator with the State of California's STAR testing process training video. I've also worked for non-profit organizations, such as the Midpeninsula Citizens for Fair Housing, and the National Benevolent Association (Serra Residential Center, in Fremont, California), and understand the need for advocacy and community support for the greater good.
I vow to bring the Chapter a sense of energy towards generating an engagement within our membership, emerging professionals and potential members. My door will always be open and available to you for anything I can be of service with — don't hesitate to reach out to me directly.

Most dieters committed to losing weight are successful at first, but then the battle is to keep the weight off. A 2012 report from the National Center for Health Statistics shows that in 2009 and 2010, more than one-third of adults and almost 17% of youth were obese. As hard as losing weight can be, keeping it off is even harder.
People who keep weight off tend to have several habits in common. The following strategies can help you achieve long-term weight loss.
People in the National Weight Control Registry, a group of more than 10,000 members, have lost an average of 60 pounds and kept their weight stable for up to 5 years. In order to keep their weight off, members report exercising, on average, about 1 hour per day.
The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases recommends that a person get an additional 30 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity 4 to 5 days a week. But if you're trying to lose weight or maintain your weight, you'll need to boost your physical activity to 60 to 90 minutes a day. It will also help to chart your progress as you increase your activity level.
To begin an exercise program:
Talk with your health care provider first and then start slowly. Begin with 10 to 30 minutes of moderately intense activity, like walking three days a week. Build up to 45 to 60 minutes on most days.
Schedule your physical activity a week in advance, use a diary to record the actual time you exercise, and try to set aside a specific and regular time of the day for exercise if possible.
Most successful dieters make changes in what, when, and how much they eat. The American Heart Association recommends adopting the following healthy eating habits:
Eat reasonable portions. Studies show most Americans eat food portions 2 or 3 times larger than necessary for good nutrition and weight maintenance. To rein in your portion sizes, use a salad plate instead of a dinner plate when dining at home. When dining out, split an entrée with a dining companion or order appetizer plates instead of full-sized meals.
Eat breakfast. People who eat breakfast eat fewer calories throughout the day and are less likely to binge because of hunger at lunch or dinner.
Shop smart. Stock up on fresh, low-fat foods. Use a shopping list, and don't shop when you're hungry.
Plan all your meals. When you're going to a party or out to eat, decide ahead of time what you can do to make it easier to eat healthy.
Manage cravings. When you really crave a high-calorie food, eat a small amount of it, instead of resisting until you give in and gorge yourself.
Eat slowly. Taking your time and savoring each bite makes meals and the food you eat more satisfying, so you are likely to eat less.
Maintain motivation. Keeping your motivation up is an important part of making any change permanent. Try the following strategies if your effort starts to sag:
Weigh yourself regularly. Doing so is an excellent way to keep your target goal — maintaining your weight — in front of you. Weekly (not daily) weigh-ins are best and allow you to take action, by cutting calories, exercising more, or both, if your weight creeps up to three pounds over your maintenance target.
Cut yourself some slack. A lapse is a small mistake or a temporary return to old habits. This can happen when you have a bad day and overeat or don't exercise. A relapse is when you go back to old habits for several days or weeks. Remember, having a lapse or relapse isn't necessarily failing. Don't give up, just get back on track.
Avoid emotional eating. Try to use other ways to respond to life's stresses besides eating. Take a walk, start a new hobby, or calm yourself through meditation.

I highly recommend this book. There may be a problem though for people who may have no background in philosophy. The only good thing is that the writer tries as much as possible to put his arguments into simple language.
Feb 5, 2011
Really in-dept writing and knowledge. Facts and tidbits throughout the book make this very interesting and a much deeper type of reading level. I enjoyed it but required actual peace in order to comprehend it better. I haven't yet finished it but its longer that my usual choices in books. Gives you a feeling of walking beside the writer and witnessing things with him. Enjoyable and made me ponder alot deeper and longer than normal.
Feb 9, 2010
A great read. Every college student should read this book and consider the matter objectively before burying their head in the sand of evolution and ascribing to all of its dogmas. The scientific community has become as closed minded to threats against their dogma as dark ages Roman Catholicism was. This book is a refreshing contemplation of free thought.
Jul 30, 2009
Scientific evidence from every field of the scientific arena of the existence of a pre-existing creator as well as an exposure of the false evidence that supports Evolution.

Anyone who is serious about seeking the truth will appreciate the thoroughness of the author. He doesn't just right opinion, he seeks information from the experts and plays devils advocate throughout.

NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - General Motors Corp. confirmed Wednesday evening that the Securities and Exchange Commission has subpoenaed records from it about its accounting practices, creating further headaches for the already embattled automaker.
The world's largest automaker disclosed in an SEC filing that it had received subpoenas from the agency related to a variety of topics, including concerns over pension and retiree health care costs, transactions between GM and its former parts unit, Delphi, which filed for bankruptcy court protections earlier this month, the automaker's recovery of recall costs from suppliers and supplier price reductions or credits.
It also disclosed its finance unit, GMAC, has received subpoenas in a separate probe of insurance industry practices related to use of products such as finite risk insurance to control reported losses.
Shares of Dow component GM (Research) lost about 2 percent in after-hours trading on Inet following the disclosure.
GM had previously disclosed that the SEC was looking into practices related to retiree pension and health care costs. The agency's demands for records in that case weren't a surprise after a competitor, DaimlerChrysler, on Tuesday disclosed in its own SEC filing that it had received a subpoena related to the SEC's probe of GM's accounting practices. The German-American automaker said the agency wanted information about the accounting methods it has used for pensions in North America.
The filing by DaimlerChrysler prompted GM to make the disclosure of the subpoena Wednesday evening rather than wait until its upcoming 8k filing, according to someone close to the situation.
The pension and health care costs for retirees is a major competitive burden for GM, which announced a deal with the United Auto Workers union to trim its health care spending by about $1 billion a year.
GM has said that its pension plans are fully funded, although the expected cost of health care for the retirees is covered by the company, not paid out of pension assets. But GM's downgrade of its credit status to junk bond status could cause the government to change the way it judges whether the pension plans are fully funded or have a significant short fall of assets.
Executives have signaled that the company will be reporting weak November auto sales next week and that it is seeking to sell a controlling stake in GMAC, by far its most profitable unit, due to problems associated with its current junk bond status.
In addition to the retiree pension and health care issues, GM has been losing money on its core North American auto operations, which led the company to report a much larger than expected third quarter loss last week. It has yet to disclose when it expects to return to profitability.

I paired these springs with a set of Bilstein dampers and am extremely thrilled with both the compliment positive handling and better than expected ride quality. The height is just how I wanted with the rear basically being flush without any wheel gap to speak of and about 1/4" of an inch of gap in the front; stock tire sizes on OEM staggered M Parallel wheels. Wished the springs were packed and shipped beter; arrive with a hole rubbed through the box and the red finish scuffed on one coil.

These were installed in about 4 hours all 4 corners in garage. The car sits perfect, with just less than a finger gap. The ride over bumps is pretty much the same as stock. less body roll. Installed on stock shocks & struts with 20,000 miles on car. Car looks so much better. Next is to upgrade the 17" wheels & tires to 19's
