The Tell City Kiwanis Club and a committee of community members will lead weekend services to mark the 50th anniversary of the Northwest Orient Airlines Electra Flight 710 crash.
In a change made over the weekend, Saturday's memorial service has been moved from the crash site at Millstone to the Cannelton Community Center. The location will better accommodate the crowd and eliminate concerns about weather and a lack of parking along Millstone Road.
CANNELTON - Myers Grade School student-council members wrote a letter to Branchville Correctional Facility, and it paid off, in the form of a $500 check.
Along with the beginning of the school year came announcements of funding cuts for education, explained Ron Gibson, assistant superintendent for the prison. "We were worried schools would have to start cutting field trips."
Such beyond-the-schoolyard experiences are a "huge part of learning," he said.
TELL CITY - Plucking snakes of dough from a conveyor line and deftly flipping each into the twist familiar to generations of fans, Brad Smith explains why he and his wife, Sandy, bought the Tell City Pretzel Co. last summer.
"I grew up with them," the Jasper resident said. "The main reason is they have a good reputation and brand name all over southern Indiana, not just here in Tell City. It just seemed like a nice opportunity."
Editor's Note: Tell City Mayor Barbara Ewing submitted this guest column to explain in a first-person question and answer format details about the city's upcoming combined-sewer overflow project. She also addresses upcoming rate increases.
The city of Tell City is about to embark on the largest single project in its history. This monumental project is called our combined-sewer overflow project, or CSO.
MILLSTONE - The Tell City Kiwanis Club and its committee of community members have finalized plans for the memorial services March 13-14 to mark the 50th anniversary of the crash of Northwest Orient Airlines Electra Flight 710 in rural Cannelton March 17, 1960.
Sixty-three souls together
Came to this solemn place,
And tears came falling down from Heaven
Like raindrops down a face.
This and the rest of a poem about the 1960 plane crash near Millstone will be read during a March 13 memorial service commemorating the tragedy.
Joan Goble's fifth-grade students, who composed it, will also display drawings they created in one of several "learning to give" efforts.
Editor's Note: Bob Thomas of Derby submitted this account of his experiences with discrimination and the U.S. military's attempt to safeguard the rights of blacks in the 1950s. He recorded his memories on paper to mark Black History Month, observed each year in February.
It was January 1954. I had just turned 18 two months before graduating from the B-29 Bomber Maintenance Course at Sheppard Air Force Base in Wichita Falls, Texas. We didn't turn many wrenches in the six-month training course; that would come later during our first and subsequent assignments.

I tend to buy one piece of fabric that I find and love. Then when I'm ready to use it, I have to hunt for colors that match up. My two best quilting friends both tend to buy either bundles or at the least, several pieces from a line. When they're ready to use their purchase, they have almost everything they need. Which type of fabric buyer are you? Bundles or singles? Do you buy for a project or just buy because you like the fabric? Fat quarters, half yards or larger cuts? Or pre-cuts like jellies, charms or layer cakes? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I buy just like you, I'll get a gift certificate and look for something I love, then have to pull it together with what I have. I have never bought a "bundle" that I can remember, but have had them gifted to me. Although the bundles are well coordinated and look good put into a quilt, I really like the originality I get when I pull it together myself. Sometimes it doesn't quite work, but usually comes out pretty well. Many times the quilts made from specific color lines look like they were bought ready-made and that to me defeats the purpose of being creative and original. Usually the only time I go to buy fabric specifically is when I need just one more fabric to finish a project because nothing in my stash will work (rarely) or because I need backing yardage. I also hardly ever follow a pattern completely, I will see something I want to do and tweak it, change sizes, add or delete borders or sashings, and always use my own color choices. I often use EQ6 to plan and design quilts. |

In recent years, if I buy a really great fabric that I'm just crazy about (like the Donkeys in Wellies) I will get 1 or 2 yards of that fabric and then get maybe 3 half yard cuts of go-with fabrics in that line. When I get home, I comb my stash to find other bits of fabrics that play well with my purchases and keep all the fabrics together in a bag so I'll know not to use them in other projects. This method is most often for baby quilts as I don't do large bed quilts that often. Teresa |
Well, I've done both. I hardly ever buy fabric specifically for a project; usually only if I am taking a class. And I'm a sucker for kits at quilt shows. LOL Lately I have been very good and have not been buying much fabric at all. :) I've been working from my stash, and when I find I am in need of a specific color I will buy it when it's on sale (I recently bought yardage of a couple of greens). Donna |
I've done both but usually I buy yardage of a fabric I really like. Then, when I'm ready to use it, I find co-ordinates. I try very hard to wait for sale prices on yardage. II have never bought a kit but lately I have been thinking about it. Geraldine |
I always buy fabric for a particular project, rarely for my stash. The only exception that comes to mind is when I bought some WOW and natural muslin to keep handy for lotto blocks. In fact, I don't really have a stash; I have a bunch of leftover scraps and a few rejects. I don't really have room for a large stash either. A large stash would stress me out, as I would consider it just tons of UFOs. Right now I have one kit I bought in Hawaii and fabric and patterns to make an Asian quilt, a OBW and a wedding quilt for my niece. I will also travel to Madison, Wisconsin, next month to buy fabric with my sister for a queen quilt for her son and DIL. She's buying the fabric and I'm making the quilt. I'm really looking forward to that. Sometimes I wish I could just buy a fabric I like. In 2012 we traveled to Ketchikan, Alaska, and visited a great quilt shop. There were some wonderful batiks with indigenous symbols and designs - totems, orcas, etc. Since I didn't have a pattern or anyone to make such a quilt for, I didn't buy anything. We're going again this July, and maybe I'll succumb this time. I have bought one charm pack to make the pinwheels and prairie points baby quilt. I also have a jelly roll I just bought to make another baby quilt that I have the pattern for. I do love looking for fabric, so bundles don't have as much appeal to me usually. I spent several hours last Monday looking for a light, a medium and a dark in six different colors for my nieces wedding quilt. I'm really happy with my choices, but I noticed that I was perspiring by the time I finished. Evidently choosing fabric is hard work. LOL |

First I have to fall in love with a print. Buy 1yd. Every time I am in a fabric store I look for companion fabrics for it that are special in their own right and get half yards. I give a title to the collection by color or element in the first piece. I seem to be able to carry around a mental image of the fabrics with their title so I continue the treasure hunt every fabric store visit. As the image comes clearer I start to look for specific colors, values and textures to round out the image. I have done this for the past 10 years in preparation for retirements freedom to sew. I now have fabric in my own formed collections for about 12 quilts yet to go and 4 already top pieced this winter. With my first competed. I take the collection and look for elements of block patterns to combine to design the quilt. The fabric hunt, the designing are so much fun, it is what for me carries me through all the work involved in making the quilt. What ever works for you, what ever gets you to the cutting,sewing and quilting. Just got a vintage 15-91 Singer to do free motion quilting. Now I will have fun designing the quilting patterns too, with so much more possible |

I used to just buy fabric on a whim because I liked it, but then after years passed and I had not used those fabric quarters I then gifted it to my S-I-L who uses it for her embroidery business projects. So now for ongoing projects I buy either neons or muted tone more natural colors by the yard. Best to you, |
Lois, I was in the quilt shop in Ketchikan and I did succumb to the temptation! Also in Anchorage and Fairbanks and Skagway. Apparently I don't have much self-control. Guess that's not a big secret, is it!?! I do buy fabric on every vacation and I love using it in projects. Every time I see the fabric or the finished quilt, it brings back memories of the trip. I have bought a few jelly rolls and enjoy creating quilts with those, too. Kate |

I've done both. I started out buying fabric I love and then looking for coordinating / complimentary pieces to go with the inspiration piece. More and more I'm leaning towards collections which I accent with pieces from my stash. I'm beginning to feel like a fabric holic...me stash continues to grow! However, when I'm ready to sew...I look at the stash and find I have most of what I need...it's a fun treasure hunt! The reason I've gravitated to collections is two fold: I'm not inclined to drive much on the weekends to fabric shop...I spend too much time in the car during the week, so weekend are downtime for me, I don't want to drive much. As a result, I order fabric on line and it's easy to go with a collection accented with whatever else I may have on hand. (It's also fun to come home from work and find a brown paper package tied up in a string! with my name on it!) Secondly, I've discovered a real difference in fabric quality, and now find myself drawn towards certain brands or manufacturers that the local Joanne's doesn't carry. A few other reasons come to mind...I have favorite on line shops and tend to purchase from a select few...there's always a sale bin so I tend not to pay full or regular price. Once you become an on line customer, there are sometimes specials sent via email...love those...yes, I'm a sucker for good discount...LOL I feel like I could write on and on...but that's enough!! |

I try not to buy for "someday" unless I have some project or direction. I never want to have a huge amount of fabric ever again - it is such a mental burden. I love Jelly rolls and try to keep a few on hand for when I need a quilt made quickly or for a gift. I usually pull out a few from the collection I don't like and add other fabric if necessary. Jelly rolls also travel easily. |
- Posted by polardream (My Page) on Sat, May 10, 14 at 22:37
I tend to do both ... and the boxes and bins of fabric in my stash prove it! I do tend to think in terms of a focal fabric then adding coordinating fabrics and usually end up with loads - then I end up pulling this one or that one for something else because it really worked! I have purchased some bundles and jelly rolls, but have not gone with any charm packs or layer cakes. I tend to go more with fat quarters if I just want small amounts. I, too, love to buy fabric when we travel - I bought a kit in Skagway four years ago and it is still sitting in the kit. Probably won't do that again! Just like boys with their toys - quilters with the most fabrics win! Sue |
- Posted by bloomorelse (My Page) on Tue, May 27, 14 at 17:46
I do both. My main problem later is to try and match with other fabrics, or not have a pattern in mind when buying and end up needing more of something that you can't find later. |
I've done both, but finally realized that I so much prefer to make scrappy-type quilts, large cuts just sat around and glared at me. They are gradually becoming borders, but even there, I like pieced ones more than a single fabric. For a while I went bonkers (and nearly broke) over charms: whoooie, all those different patterns/colors in one neat package. Then I noticed that I didn't use them much because A) a single united bundle usually wasn't sufficient for the size quilt I wanted, and 2 identical bundles were just ... boring to cut and sew. B) they are a PIA to prime (prewash/shrink). C) they too often shrank so that patterns based on 5" squares or 2 1/2" strips had to be re-sized to be usable by the smallest shrunken charm. and D) they were dern expensive. The cost of one bundle is usually more than the cost of 4 shirts at the thrift store or 8+ shirts at yard sales. Those shirt fabrics may not be the latest thing offered by the fabric store but they ARE preshrunk, colorfast (I've never had red, purple or navy run), and with a great variety of prints and patterns. On the rare -very, very, very rare- occasion that I buy new yardage now, it's either something that I am totally in love with or WoW. A couple years ago I bought 2 yards of a gorgeous butterfly print and wish I had bought more. I buy WoW only for specific quilts, 5 1/2 yards at a time. |

Years ago I bought 10 yards of Vintage White by Chanticlere because it goes well with my 1930's reproduction prints. I used it to make my bed quilt a few years ago and I still have quite a lot of it left. I put it in its own hot pink plastic bag and labeled it so I can keep up with it. I'm glad I made this purchase because now it doesn't seem to be available. :o( Teresa |

I envy those who buy fabric for a particular project. Maybe my stash wouldn't be so out of control if I did that! I used to buy yardage by what ever tickled my fancy and sometimes I still do if I see a piece I just have to have. I do buy a lot of precuts and collections lately. I like being able to start a quilt without too much fret of matching fabrics. However, scrappy is good too. :) |

In this striking tragedy of political conflict, Shakespeare turns to the ancient Roman world and to the famous assassination of Julius Caesar by his republican opponents. The play is one of tumultuous rivalry, of prophetic warnings--"Beware the ides of March"--and of moving public oratory "Friends, Romans, countrymen!" Ironies abound and most of all for Brutus, whose fate it is to learn that his idealistic motives for joining the conspiracy against a would-be dictator are not enough to sustain the movement once Caesar is dead.

Can we keep Lee until January?
Top drawer - needed for "promotion charge" From the Sunday Mail: Arbroath 3 Forfar 0
PAUL SHEERIN hopes loan star Lee Erwin can give Arbroath some New Year cheer in their promotion charge.
Motherwell man Erwin netted a clinching third for the Red Lichties against Forfar. And Sheerin said: "I'd prefer to have Lee until January as he has been top drawer."
Alan Cook steered in the home side's opener before Lee Sibanda headed the second. Erwin drilled in No.3 with the Loons' misery complete by Gavin Swankie's late red card.

After rallying sharply last week to new 2014 lows, bond yields are ticking higher to start off the new week, spurred partly by a higher-than-expected August homebuilder sentiment reading from the National Association of Home Builders, which rose to 55 this month from 53 in July.
"As the employment picture brightens, builders are seeing a noticeable increase in the number of serious buyers entering the market," said NAHB Chairman Kevin Kelly in a statement accompanying the data release. "However, builders still face a number of challenges, including tight credit conditions for borrowers and shortages of finished lots and labor."
The 10-year Treasury note is currently down 9/32 in price on the day to lift its yield to 2.377%, per Tradeweb data. The 30-year bond is down 24/32 to yield 3.173%.
All eyes this week will be on Jackson Hole, Wyoming, where the Federal Reserve is hosting an annual policy conference starting Thursday, and in the meantime we get to see the minutes from the Fed's latest policy committee meeting, to be released Wednesday afternoon.

An E-Mayor for Virtual L.A. City
When Angelenos vote Nov. 5, they'll be asked to decide whether or not to let the San Fernando Valley secede from the rest of Los Angeles. Secession would split L.A. in two, creating a new city of approximately 1.3 million people, with an annual budget over $1 billion.
Internet consultant Marc Strassman, 54, wants to be mayor of that new city.
Strassman, president of research and consulting company Etopia, has been an evangelist of e-government for 26 years. He believes that putting government online will vastly increase the quality of life in the Valley and serve as an example for other municipalities.
He's so convinced of the power of the Internet that he's basing his entire campaign around his website, Strassman for Mayor. He has no staff or headquarters, and runs his entire campaign from a laptop in his apartment.
He doesn't "press the flesh" with prospective voters. He estimates he's spoken face to face with fewer than 250 of the region's 3 million registered voters.
An Oct. 16 Los Angeles Times poll shows that support for Strassman has stabilized across all political and geographic boundaries at 1 percent. Seven other mayoral candidates currently outpoll him.
But it may be all for naught, as the secessionist movement is not expected to win.
One explanation for Strassman's ranking might be his campaign platform, which he acknowledges is not what voters have come to expect from politicians:
- Provide universal access to Internet broadband connectivity.
- Provide universal access to stationary and/or mobile computing devices.
- Use the Universal Access Network to provide comprehensive e-government services to all residents.
- Use the e-government system to upgrade or replace bureaucrats.
- Eliminate the digital divide to open up e-learning, e-commerce, e-medicine and other digital resources to all residents.
He encourages photovoltaics, online voting, open-source architecture, Linux and electric cars. He plans to earn municipal revenue by having Valley City provide e-government services to other communities. There's no mention of taxes, crime, education, real estate values or the economy.
Does a man running an all-Internet campaign stand a chance of winning?
"Not in this decade," according to Jeff Adler, a political consultant in Southern California. "When you prioritize (your campaign tools), the Internet is way down the list. It's down there with lawn signs."
But Strassman sees the Internet and e-government as the most efficient solution to the Valley's problems.
In an e-mail interview, Strassman offered his Internet-based solution to the Valley's traffic congestion: "Would allowing, encouraging, subsidizing and facilitating the avoidance of trips over the hill to sit in cubicles or spacious corner offices or open plan rooms to work all day by phone and computer by having workers sit at home and work all day by phone and computer cut down on the number of trips burdening the strained road system? Is Linux an operating system?"
Strassman says he's pretty much indifferent to accusations of geekhood. He still believes, in what he admits might be a retro way, that the Internet is a force for the empowerment of the individual, thus his campaign and its emphasis on open-source software and broadband. "I want (people) to have an opportunity to participate in their own transformation. Through technology."
If the vote for secession is successful, Valley City will come into existence on July 1, 2003, with the inauguration of its mayor and city council. The new mayor will have 120 days to get the city's services up and running before Los Angeles formally withdraws from the area.

Sweet Dreams Are Made Of This
3:28 pm in Uncategorized by cmaukonen
I was searching the internet a while ago for the sweeteners i generally use. One being the alcohol base sugar substitute and the other containing stevia, when I notice a news story about a class action lawsuit against the makers of Truvia™. The result of which is the same as has been the same as most of these lawsuits. A fine, no admittance of guilt or culpability, and everything remains the same. Essentially nothing. Little — if any — effect on their business or business practices.
The same thing pretty much happened with all the woop-tee-doo over "Big Tobacco" and cigarettes. The companies are still doing just fine. And people are still smoking and it will not go away, for the same reason sex won't go away. Those who smoke enjoy doing it far too much and for very similar reasons as sex. [A subject for another diary].
The justice system and courts in this country act as a deflector to any real change too. Meaningless laws get passed and most ignore them.
But this diary is about symbolism. All of these are very symbolic gestures and, ever since the Vietnam-era, the left, liberals and especially Democrats love symbolism. They see it as the best way to say 'fuck you' without actually doing it.
Symbolism is great. You can make an over-the-top statement without putting you lifestyle, lack of principles or the status quo in any danger. Obama was the ultimate symbol and Hillary will be the next great symbol. Democrats will flock to her side and so will liberals.
And once again nothing will change. But liberals will still dream about how the revolution will come down. Of course, if it ever did they would likely shit in their pants.
They call it the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe it. –George Carlin

Kate Moss: 'I'm Kind of a Celebrity Now'
"I'm not just a face," she tells Allure's August 2013 issue. "Everyone's a celebrity. But I'm kind of a celebrity now, so even though I'm not an actress, people know my name."
It's a name that has transcended the decades — Moss, 39, is as much as a supermodel, style icon and shutterbugs' muse as the day she stepped on the scene. But she didn't always possess the confidence she does today.
"I didn't like my flat chest. I was like, 'Oh, I'm going to have a tit job.' Can you imagine?" she recalls. "I used to be so scared about, 'Oh, I don't want to show my body. Now that I've shown it, it doesn't bug me about my moles, or 'This isn't big enough' and 'That's not smooth enough.'"
Though she became renowned for her so-called "heroin chic" style in the 1990s, Moss says she never struggled with the drug or an eating disorder.
"It was horrible, especially the anorexic thing," Moss says. "The heroin, I was like, 'Oh, it's ridiculous. I know I don't do heroin. Just because I wear a bit of black eyeliner that's smudged....' But the anorexic thing was a lot more upsetting, to be held responsible for somebody's illness. I wasn't anorexic."
Now Moss, who wed husband Jamie Hince in July 2011, has a simple approach to her style: "I try and be a little bit chic," she says. "I wouldn't wear sweatpants. I wouldn't wear a twinset."
"With confidence, I think anyone can get a dress and make it their own," she continues. "I don't think you should have it off the runway and wear it like they want you to wear it.... I just think it's boring. You have to make it your own. That's what fashion is all about."

Some games can live or die by their advertising campaigns.
A clever television commercial or internet trailer can get people talking about a game and ensure it's still jumping around in their mind when it's released. It's one of the main reasons the Wii saw immediate success, and it's the reason EA always spends oodles on elaborate ad-break-length ads for FIFA every time there's a Champions League final.
What we have here, then, are our favourite video game ads of all time. There are the ads that caught our eye when originally released and have stuck with us many months, years, even decades since we first saw them.
They're in no particular order... except for the last three, which we consider the best of the best. But what are they? Read on to find out.

Unimpressed by the sideshow barkers' astounding claims, Woody goes to the circus without a ticket, and the circus cop kicks him out. Woody comes back, and the cop tells him that he'll have to work watering an elephant if he stays. A little thing like that doesn't detain Woody for long. Woody connects the elephant's trunk to the fire hydrant and blows up the elephant. The cop isn't pleased with Woody's work and tries to get tough with him, but he doesn't know Woody very well.
The circus performance struggles on while Woody, with the help of a few lions, tigers, elephants and unscheduled acrobatics, that trying to keep him from seeing the circus is unethical, ungentlemanly, and very unlikely to succeed. Woody runs through circus tents, gets the animals in an uproar (making the lion bite off his own tail), and leads cops to the high wire on a bicycle. Chased by the cops, Woody makes the crowd roar as he does wild trapeze stunts.

I have a Sears Craftsman garage door opener 139.53970SRT. I have a doorbell-style opener and three remotes. Without warning, the door will sometimes open or close. I am looking at the three suggestions in the manual:
1) Check all remotes and see if the button is stuck. 2) Short in the "bell wire" (the wire to the doorbell remote). 3) Clear the memory of the unit and all remotes and then reprogram. Does anyone have any OTHER suggestions or has anyone heard of this happening before? Thanks so much in advance. |

I would also replace the doorbell button as a possible source for this problem. Your instructions have it pretty well covered. |

If Douglas Fairbanks had lived to see The Mask of Zorro, he would've enjoyed it a lot. If John Wayne had lived to see Armageddon, he would've been horrified, but I have a feeling that if Errol Flynn saw the updated film version of "The Count of Monte Cristo" he'd have a great time watching it. This is a rousing adventure, ripped out of the pages of the great Classics Illustrated comic books.
It's a great tale of revenge. The hero (James Caviezel) is cruelly betrayed by his best friend, is trapped in an island prison for years, absorbed by thoughts of revenge against the man who stole his woman. The lost woman he can almost deal with; it's the lost time that eats him the most.
The plot of "The Count of Monte Cristo" doesn't much matter I don't think. We can predict all of the events that happen in the film with remarkable accuracy, even if we don't remember the whole story from when we were young. Movies like this live or die on their cool sword fights, attractive scenery, and the chemistry between the two leads. Throw in the icy sweetheart for the purpose of fantasy, and to give the characters the impetus to want to kill each other over her, and you have a good piece of entertainment.
Both Caviezel and Pearce are terrific in the film. Pearce, as the villainous Fernand, demonstrates that he could've been a more than passable star back in the 20's and 30's with his surly mouth and weird facial ticks. When he steals Caviezel's sweetheart (Dagmara Dominczyk), he projects real evil and lust, and by the time Caviezel escapes prison, we can't wait for him to return and kill the bastard. Caviezel for his part, wouldn't have been a big star back in the old days, probably because he doesn't fit any stereotypes as an actor. Look at the parts he's played, from Angel Eyes to "Frequency". Caviezel's a hypnotic and strange actor who can't be pigeonholed in one type. Pearce, equally as talented, might become a modern day Anthony Perkins, typecasting and all. He can be that creepy.
Basically, a movie like "The Count of Monte Cristo" is remembered only for its good parts. I didn't much care for Caviezel's relationship in prison with mentor Richard Harris, or any of the drama which spans decades in the film. The best parts of the film are the sword fights, brilliantly edited from various angles, including a great battle on a grass field. "The Count of Monte Cristo" is not as good of a film as say "Captain Blood" probably because well, Errol Flynn was the master of these kinds of movies, but it's old school in another way. We like the actors, we like the action, and by definition, the movie works. The rest doesn't matter.

It's not often that I praise The New York Post for its journalism, but they wrote the best Kimye wedding coverage of all time. [Uproxx]
Told you I wasn't done posting about Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's wedding! (As much as I thought I wasn't going to want to, writing about Kimye is actually a lovely reprieve from certain other depressing subjects that I've been otherwise engrossed in.)
So! Here's what we know: Kim wore a custom Givenchy dress for the ceremony and this is the only photo we've got of it so far, since the official photos have apparently been exclusively granted to Vogue. (Kanye and daughter North also wore custom Givenchy.) Andrea Bocelli sang Kim down the aisle, John Legend sang that song "All Of Me" at some point, and the couple's first dance was to Etta James' "At Last" and Otis Redding's "These Arms Of Mine" and "Tenderness." Long first dance, guys. Anyway, then Kanye grabbed the mic and rapped a bit because of course.
Later on, Kanye gave a wedding speech, nay, rant that, according to Us Weekly, went like this: Keep reading »
Here is a photo of Kim Kardashian and fiance Kanye West headed to their rehearsal dinner at the Palace of Versailles, yawn, in Paris. Matching-ish tuxedos with plunging necklines — cute! God, I can't wait for this spectacle to be OVER. One. More. Day! [Photo: Pacific Coast News]
Now that is the face of a man defeated. Sad Kanye is nothing new, of course. A quick perusal of the Tumblr blog Sad Kanye reveals that the self-proclaimed God has been seen looking pretty bummed out at fashion shows, on the red carpet and hanging poolside, not to mention with fiancee Kim Kardashian by his side on more than a few occasions. But I don't think Sad Kanye has ever looked more sad than he does preparing to zip-line in Mexico. What's wrong, Yeezy? Harness too tight? Or does that upcoming wedding got you stressed? We're here for you whenever you're ready to talk. [Reddit via Gawker]

Your children are healthy, active and have been playing sports for years. So why should they need to get a sports physical before heading back to the class this year? Sports physicals are important screenings that can detect potential problems before student athletes start another season. They can also help children and teens prepare to help avoid getting sick or hurt while playing their sport.
Bumps and bruises happen when you are a kid, but did you know an estimated 23 million children under the age of 15 head into the ER for medical treatment? Of those admitted, 7 million children are seen for accidental injuries and Safe Kids Worldwide announced this week 1.35 million children end up in the ER with sports-related injuries. Sometimes it isn't easy being a kid.
There's nothing quite like arriving at a bustling hotel, bags in hand, your energy worn by travel and immediately hearing the words, "Hello, we've been expecting you." All of a sudden, this new place feels more familiar – the people more welcoming. A deep breath later and a sense of comfort and calm replace any stress or anxiety you may have felt moments before. Could the same be true if you were to step into a hospital instead of hotel? Derrick Jones believes so and he's investing his own time to find out.
Do you have a flat screen TV? Is mounted on the wall or sitting on top of a dresser? Your child's safety could depend on it. New research finds that every three weeks, another child dies from a TV tipping over onto them. The rate of injury is on the rise.
Researchers from all over the world came together this week to share their latest findings at what is known as the world's leading forum on dementia research at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference (AAIC). Two big stories came from that conference. One, delaying retirement could cut the risk for developing dementia.
Statins are a class of drugs often prescribed to patients to lower LDL levels, also known as the bad cholesterol. They work by inhibiting an enzyme, HMG-CoA reductase, which controls the production of cholesterol in the liver. The medication works by slowing down the production of cholesterol and therefore increasing the number of LDL receptors. These receptors bind to LDL in the liver, thus reducing LDL levels in the blood stream.
Dawn Tschabrun was recently named the new Chief Executive Officer (CEO) at Lovelace Regional Hospital-Roswell. Previously the Chief Nursing Officer/Chief Operations Officer at Lovelace Regional Hospital-Roswell since 2012 and the Chief Nursing Officer at the facility since 2009, Dawn brings 25 years of nursing experience with 12 years of progressive managerial experience to this position. We asked Dawn five questions as she begins her new role.
Charlie Miller has worked at Lovelace Medical Center for more than 40 years. In Patient Transport, he helps take patients where they need to go in the hospital. Charlie has special way of making patients feel calm and right at home at Lovelace, which has earned him the nickname "Elvis." Take a look.
Summer break is a time to try new things, travel and visit friends and family. For many of New Mexico's blood donors, it is a time move back home, take an internship out of state or simply take a break from the normal routine. That is because many of the state's blood donors are students. From universities to high schools, regular school blood drives dry up in the summer, while the demand continues.
A new large study finds there are four basic lifestyle modifications you can make to protect your heart. The study, called "Low-Risk Lifestyle, Coronary Calcium, Cardiovascular Events, and Mortality: Results from the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis," points to regular exercise, maintaining a normal weight, following a Mediterranean diet, and not smoking as ways to greatly impact your heart health and improve longevity.

In reading about the Netflix/library hubbub[1], the issue in my mind is not how Netflix was used. I believe that the actions of these libraries and librarians are a symptom of a larger issue for the profession: the coping (or non-coping) with the expansion of licensed content as part of the collection.
This run-in with Netflix is just the tip of the iceberg that is slowly bearing down on the libraryland ship. We are moving from a collection model where we would purchase and lend materials to where we act as an access point for leased or licensed content. The relatively safe model protected under the first sale doctrine is being eroded and replaced with agreements where ownership rights stay with with the provider. In forgoing ownership, libraries must abide by a series of contractual rules and terms that have been created by an outside entity. As the number of vendors offering these kinds of business increases, librarians are obliged to enforce a variety of contractual clauses, terms, and conditions.
Libraries are surrendering content ownership at an alarming rate in exchange for convenience. In doing so, the library moves toward a future where the collection is no longer owned and maintained but leased and licensed by entities that operate in the best interest of their shareholders, not the patron community. It's a future in which final determination of access is taken out of the hands of librarians and placed into that of outside third parties. -- Read More
[In previous editions of the Library Reloaded series, there has been discussion about what materials make up a collection, different ways to approach fines, and alternate forms of library cards. Unlike those previous posts, in writing and thinking about the catalog, I have found that my thoughts have lingered on what the catalog of the future should do and look like rather than offer alternatives to the catalog. So, this post will have more of a sandbox feel to it in listing what I'd like in the next generation of library automation. Also, since I'm vastly unfamiliar with cataloging, I am hoping that any cataloger reading this will write their own blog post to fill in that aspect so that I can link to it. –A ]
There's a quote that is attributed to astronaut John Glenn, remarking on his space flight:

Hi! I am hoping someone knows of a recipe or has some really good skills and could tell me how to re-create a dessert flavor. I LOVE "Yoplait"s" whipped yogurt in the chocolate/raspberry flavor. the tang of the yogurt and the chocolate and light raspberry flavors are great, but the whipped version is so light and airy! I really love the fluffy texture and would like to create a dessert to mimic this. I'm not certain if a mousse would be that fluffy, it's been years since I had a mousse. or even how you would "whip" yogurt. Any recipes that come close enough to mock this? any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks! |

Copper was seen falling in New York as slumping Japanese exports added to evidence of a global economic slowdown, undermining prospects for demand.
Shipments dropped 8.1 percent from a year earlier, the Finance Ministry said today. Exports to the European Union, embroiled in the euro debt crisis, plunged the most since October 2009. Growth has weakened for six quarters in China, the world's biggest copper consumer, while euro-area services and manufacturing output shrank for a sixth month in July.
"The lower exports are a worrying sign about the strength of the global economy," William Adams, an analyst at Basemetals.com in London, said in a report.
Copper for December delivery declined 0.3 percent to $3.449 a pound by 7:58 a.m. on the Comex in New York. Prices yesterday reached $3.474, the highest level since July 20. The London Metal Exchange's three-month contract fell 0.4 percent to $7,580 a metric ton.
Declines may be limited by figures predicted to show a stronger housing market in the U.S., the second-biggest copper user. The Copper Development Association says construction generates about 40 percent of demand for the metal.
A report due at 10 a.m. New York time may show sales of existing U.S. houses climbed in July from an eight-month low, according to economists surveyed by Bloomberg. Figures tomorrow may show improved sales of new dwellings.
BHP Billiton Ltd., the world's biggest mining company, put on hold a planned expansion of the Olympic Dam mine in Australia that would have increased copper output almost fourfold to 750,000 tons a year. That was among about $68 billion of projects delayed after second-half profit plunged 58 percent.
Copper stockpiles monitored by the LME fell 0.1 percent to 234,175 tons, daily exchange figures showed. Orders to withdraw the metal from warehouses jumped 21 percent to 45,275 tons.
Nickel, lead and zinc rose in London as tin and aluminum fell.

Siemens is currently installing the first regenerative battery in the U.S. on the new TriMet Portland-Milwaukie light rail transit line — the 7.3-mile line extension project that will connect the southeast corridor to downtown Portland and other regions that TriMet MAX serves.
The southeast Portland Tacoma substation location will house the first U.S. storage unit that allows for energy created during braking to be stored and then re-used in one of two forms, energy savings or voltage stabilization, during peak demand times. TriMet will utilize the system in voltage stabilization mode.In voltage stabilization mode, the Sitras SES Energy Storage Unit with supercapacitor technology allows the system to avoid problems that have led to disruptions in mass transit operations. If a number of vehicles accelerate simultaneously, system voltage can drop below a critical level and result in instances of undervoltage tripping in vehicles and, consequently, lead to disruptions in passenger service. The Sitras SES ensures the system voltage always remains within the required range and voltage-related disruptions no longer occur."The regenerative energy storage unit is an important piece of the many sustainable elements being incorporated in this light rail project," said Dan Blocher, executive director, TriMet Capital Projects.The Sitras Energy Storage unit is part of Siemens Smart Grid Rail Electrification portfolio, providing solutions to reliably connect railway systems to the power grid. In energy savings mode, the energy storage unit absorbs the energy generated by braking rail vehicles and stores it until the system can safely feed it back to the power supply during vehicle acceleration.
As a voltage stabilizer, the energy content is constantly kept at a high level and energy is discharged when the system voltage falls below a specified limit. Installation of the Sitras Energy Storage Unit also allows TriMet to avoid placing a utility-connected substation in the same location.The Sitras SES has been successfully installed in Spain and Germany, reducing the energy demand at Cologne Transit Authority substation by 15,000 kWh in one month. The use of just a single energy storage unit could save a maximum of 500,000 kWh per year. In addition to the cost saving, the storage unit can reduce CO2 emissions by 300 tons per year with this reduction in energy generation.The first substations will be installed beginning in October 2013. The Portland-Milwaukie Light Rail Transit Project is set to open in 2015 and will expand the MAX system to 60 miles and 97 stations.RELATED ARTICLE: Check out, "Amtrak unveiles advanced tech.

Should I prune this mulberry or will that crotch be strong enough to have a Y shaped tree? It's 4.5 years in the ground now. The crotch is about knee high now. I'm thinking to cut off the right branch so the left will become the primary trunk. Also because the left has more branching and is a little thicker looking than the right. Thank you. |

Congrats on having such a nice tree planted in a nice Sunny spot. If it were my tree, I would place a thick pile of woody mulch around the tree to make a 6 ft circle. I would regularly water the whole circle. The soil will get better and better and thus invite the roots to grow bigger and bigger. In late Fall I would prune all lower growth up to about 3-1/2 ft height so that a "wide" pc. of aluminum or galvanized conduit can encircle the lower trunk area while the conduit sits flat on the ground. This slick sleeve will help prevent possums, coons, tree rats, etc. from climbing up the tree to harvest your future fruit. Next, I would clip the tops of vertical branches at about 6 ft or so to cause the tree to grow more branches sideways/lower to eventually form a shorter umbrella shape. Because one day when someone is on the upper ladder steps and standing on tip-toes and reaching sideways as far as possible to hopefully pick a beautiful ripe berry that is calling out to you.....and the ladder starts to fall sideways....and so do you....Well, picking fruit from a lower height is good for your health. I saw a guy on the upper step of a step ladder that only had 3 legs touching the ground below, and he was so motivated to reach higher and more sideways to use the running chain saw in his 2 hands to cut an out-of-reach branch overhead........Well, I stepped up and grabbed the moving ladder to stabilize it and tried to "talk him down". Enjoy your future mulberry muffins. |

I would prune it to a central leader but wait until late winter-early spring to do as you suggest, although I don't think a mulberry is as likely to split as trees with heavier fruit. Mulberries tend to grow huge diametered branches that destroy the central leader shape by destroying the dominance of the leader while still quite small, but such a shape is more appealing to me and more efficient of space. I would not only cut that branch but would use a piece of electric conduit to tightly tape the tree to with electric tape to make it grow straight. Then for the next few years I'd remove all branches that are more than half the diameter of the trunk at the point the branch is attached to that trunk. I agree about using wood chips or anything to keep away the grass-weed competition. The tree is small for a 4 year old mulberry. |

i would also cut the tops and mulch heavily. I tend to prune a bit different than other people i think. I would cut that left-most branch also about 2ft above the fork. and maybe even tie a weight to it, or a rope to bend it down to the ground, so when it gets taller, the branch is lower and easy to reach. |

North Austin Man Killed In Police Shooting - keyetv.com Austin News, Weather, Traffic KEYE-TV Austin - Top Stories
Details are still a bit sketchy. A man was attacked by a dog on his property. He put down the dog with a handgun and informed the police of his actions. The responding officer requested he put away his handgun. Man refused, he is on his private property. The officer attempts to forcibly disarm victim, the victim points his handgun at the officer. The rest is obvious.When the officer tried to reach for the gun to secure it the man stepped back and pulled the gun out and pointed it at the officer – who then shot the man, according to Acevedo.
I hope there is a dash cam of the incident. In the mean time, right or wrong you may want to put away weapons when talking to police.

How to Motivate Yourself to Exercise When It's Hot Outside
After suffering through subfreezing temperatures all winter, it might sound silly to complain about hot weather.

SAN FRANCISCO - The protest known as Occupy San Francisco is Mark Schwetz's first demonstration. After watching protesters mass against Wall Street excesses in New York last week, the soft-spoken 36-year-old carpenter's apprentice wanted to share his story of how a middle-class guy lost his home.
Schwetz stood in a light drizzle in front of the Federal Reserve building on San Francisco's Market Street recently, holding a plain white piece of cardboard with a handwritten plea: "Return our homes."
As the Occupy Wall Street movement expands across the nation, supporters hope to make it more politically powerful by focusing on real-life stories of people such as Schwetz.
His frustration and anger at the financial system, and politicians of both parties who do little to reform it, mirror the reason others are demonstrating in dozens of cities from New York to Salt Lake City. They proclaim themselves the 99 percent of Americans overrun by the wealthiest 1 percent, who control more than 40 percent of the nation's wealth.
Almost two-thirds of Americans surveyed in recent polls support raising taxes on those earning more than $1 million a year. Last week, Senate Democrats and President Barack Obama supported such a tax, less than a year after the president backed an extension of the Bush-era tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans.
The rage behind the anti-Wall Street protests is similar to the Tea Party's backlash two years ago against giant government bailouts of big corporations in response to the financial crisis, some pundits have observed, although the new movement is dominated by liberals instead of conservatives.
"The real challenge," said Phyllis Bennis, a fellow at the liberal Institute for Policy Studies who studies social movements, is making the revolt against the accumulation of wealth "happen politically." The 3-week-old Occupy movement must spotlight the outrage of folks such as Schwetz to build a movement big enough to succeed in making tax-the-rich proposals become law, analysts say.
A few months after Schwetz purchased a home in Petaluma, Calif., in 2004, his subprime mortgage payments doubled. For five years, he poured almost all of his earning as a FedEx driver into his house payments, until he couldn't afford it any longer. He rented rooms to friends, but "it didn't help much," he said.
Schwetz's lender refused to renegotiate the borrowing terms. Two years ago, he sold his house, which had lost about half its original value of $400,000, for less than he owed on the mortgage -- a practice known as a short sale. Then injuries to his back forced him to quit his job. Now, he's trying to restart his life with a new career in carpentry.
In the process, he had to drain his 401(k) and lost his health insurance.
"I'm angry and I'm frustrated, and it's really unfair what's been done," said Schwetz, who now lives in Berkeley, Calif.
Census figures released last month show that 15.4 million Americans are living below the poverty line in suburban areas outside of major metropolitan cities.
Critics of the fledgling movement dismiss it as the rambling of the usual protesters -- a cacophony of liberal causes broadcasting a scattershot message. It's much of the same language that was used to dismiss the antiwar movement a decade ago when the United States invaded Afghanistan, Bennis said.
Jason Mark, who organized war protests across the nation a decade ago, understands the challenge of expanding a movement in its nascent stage. TV coverage at the time focuses on street conflicts between demonstrators and police rather than the reasons people were on the streets.
While several major labor unions and celebrities including "Austin Powers" star Mike Myers joined the Occupy Wall Street protests in recent days, much of the movement is being led, like the early Tea Party rebellion, by a disparate group of people driven by their frustration at the system.
Some liberal activists credit the Tea Party as a role model for what the Occupy Wall Street movement could become. Two years ago -- before being embraced by the Republican Party, promoted by Fox News and funded by various conservative organizations -- the Tea Party began as a bunch of people angry and frustrated that the federal government had bailed out big banks and major auto companies.
Less than two years later, a few dozen Tea Party-friendly Republicans newly elected to the House are driving the debate in Washington.

In computing, a process is an instance of a computer program that is being executed. It contains the program code and its current activity. Depending on the operating system (OS), a process may be made up of multiple threads of execution that execute instructions concurrently.
A computer program is a passive collection of instructions; a process is the actual execution of those instructions. Several processes may be associated with the same program; for example, opening up several instances of the same program often means more than one process is being executed.
For security and reliability reasons most modern operating systems prevent direct communication between independent processes, providing strictly mediated and controlled inter-process communication functionality.
