Explaining the New Hole Tool
The Hole Tool in Alibre Design 2011 has been revamped. The dialog is much smaller making it less invasive and allowing more room for workspace manipulation.
The hole type is now managed through graphical icons at the top of the dialog instead of the traditional drop-down menu.
The biggest change in the hole dialog is the introduction of Hole Parameter Presets. This feature allows users to create presets for commonly used holes so they can be reapplied in new features and parts with ease. Presets can be created, applied, modified, or deleted through the Hole Tool interface. You can also manually edit your preset file to quickly create a large number of presets.
Creating New Presets
- Activate the Hole Dialog
- Apply the desired parameters and thread
- Type the desired name for the preset into the Preset field
- Click Create
- Your hole preset will now be stored for future use in this part or new parts
Modifying Existing Presets
- Activate the Hole Dialog
- Select the desired preset to be modified from the Preset drop down
- Make the desired parameter or thread changes
- Click Modify
- Your preset will now be updated with new values. This will not affect holes created in other parts. To update other parts with this change, open the part, edit the hole feature, and reselect the modified preset.
Deleting Existing Presets
- Activate the Hole Dialog
- Select the preset to be removed from the preset drop-down
- Click Delete
- The selected preset will now be removed from your list of presets.
Using Existing Hole Presets
- Create a part and select a face to apply a hole(s)
- Activate the Hole Dialog
- Select a preset from the preset drop down.
- The parameters of the selected preset will now be pushed into your current hole. The selected preset is not stored in the hole feature but the preset's parameters are.
- Thread created from Hole Presets can be displayed in the Drawing workspace using the Insert Hole Callouts command.

4 FM quick reads on Energy Efficiency
1. Paths to Carbon Neutralilty
Hello. This is Greg Zimmerman, executive editor of Building Operating Management magazine.
Today's topic is working to make your organization carbon neutral.
Carbon neutrality basically requires a three-pronged approach – with
varying ratios of each of the two, depending on the priorities and
goals of the organization, its budget, and how fast it wants to declare
itself officially carbon neutral.
The first and most important step is to reduce energy use as much as
possible. There's simply no substitute for an energy efficient
building. To start, find the easy energy efficiency projects and
operational changes that result in the biggest reductions with the best
paybacks. Then move towards tougher projects that move the organization
closer and closer to as low an energy spend as possible. Truly carbon
neutral organizations are net-zero energy organizations, meaning
organizations that require no energy from the grid.
A second leg to the carbon neutral stool is generating renewable energy
generation onsite. This usually means using photovoltaic panels or
onsite wind turbines.
A third option also involving renewables, but this one is a bit more
controversial. You can purchase renewable energy certificates
(sometimes just called RECs) or carbon offsets. RECs are purchased by
the megawatt hour and ensure that even though the electricity is still
coming from the grid, the amount of renewable energy purchased actually
is being fed into the grid by some other renewable energy source.
Besides helping to meet its own carbon neutral goal, purchasing RECs is
one way an organization can help promote the gradual marketwide shift
to renewable energy without actually generating renewable energy itself.
Carbon offsets are measured and sold as tons of carbon dioxide and can
take various forms. It's important to understand how the carbon offset
company reinvests their money. For instance, buying one carbon offset
unit may mean that company is planting trees Florida, or it may mean
that the company is actually investing in energy efficiency and
renewable energy projects. Most would agree that the latter is more
useful to the ultimate goal of carbon neutrality anyway – combating
climate change.
2. Efficient HVAC Systems May Qualify for Tax Breaks
I'm Ed Sullivan, editor of Building Operating Management magazine. Today's topic is potential tax benefits for very efficient HVAC systems.
The Energy Policy Act of 2005 – better known as EPAct – provides tax deductions for the installation of HVAC systems with energy costs that are at least 16.7 percent than an HVAC system designed to meet the 2001 edition of ASHRAE 90.1. The deductions apply both to new construction and to renovations. Although HVAC component upgrades typically don't qualify, a comprehensive system installation is a good candidate. So are geothermal and thermal storage systems.
Getting the deduction isn't easy. EPAct requires that the performance of the system be substantiated by energy modeling. And the modeling required is different than the modeling required by LEED. But rebates may be available to cover at least some of the cost of modeling, though the rebates must be obtained before the modeling is conducted.
The tax benefits are currently due to expire at the end of 2008. But there are proposals in Congress to extend the tax breaks. For green buildings and other buildings where significant HVAC work is planned, the tax breaks are worth looking into.
3. Consider Solar Shading to Reduce Energy Use
Today's tip is about techniques for solar shading. In addition to energy efficient windows or glazing, considering using solar shading devices to block solar heat gain. This can help reduce energy use.
The particular type of shading device used will obviously depend on the design of the exterior of the building and the building orientation, but some of the more commonly used solar shading strategies include carefully placed trees, awnings and trellises, overhangs, grille screens and even solar panels. Some more advanced types of solar shading can be programmed to follow the sun, and therefore adjust the shading as the sun moves across the sky. Overall, solar shading should not block heat gain in the winter, if possible, and should be designed to reduce glare. According to the American Institute of Architects, the most challenging exposures to manage are eastern and western exposures from low morning sun glare and late-afternoon solar load and sun glare.
Another strategy along the same lines is using light shelves to reflect light deeper into a facility. This can save energy because fewer energy-using lights are necessary. If you use this strategy, however, be careful to only reflect light, not glare.
4. Understanding Building Commissioning
Today's tip involves building commissioning. According to the National Institute of Building Sciences, commissioned buildings use between 8 and 29 percent less energy than their non-commissioned counterparts. Most industry experts see commissioning as a no-brainer, but facility executives often see only the first cost and, therefore, commissioning doesn't make the final budget cuts.
However, consider working up an ROI based on possible energy savings and longer equipment life. Many utilities and third-party organizations offer grants, rebates or zero-interest loans to help defray the initial cost of commissioning, as well.
There are three basic types of commissioning. The first is new-building commissioning. With new construction, many experts suggest having the commissioning agent on board as early as the schematics phase to help flesh out inconsistencies or problems in the detailed drawings, before they become problems in the built building. Commissioning is a prerequisite of LEED for New Construction, so in order to get any level of certification, the building must be commissioned.
Retrocommissioning is generally understood to mean commissioning an existing building that had never gone through the commissioning process. The idea is to bring facility equipment back into spec and to root out energy-related problems.
Recommissioning, or continuous commissioning, means commissioning a facility that already has been commissioned. Recommissioning should be done at a pre-specified interval – usually once a year or once every other year. You can earn points in LEED for Existing Buildings for a well-developed recommissioning program.

A major part of the quantified self movement is the use of activity monitors such as FitBit, Nike FuelBand, or Jawbone UP. These devices utilize a low-power accelerometer to determine activity level and calorie count based on detected motion. Sometimes a barometer is used to determine vertical movement such as walking up or down stairs.
There are multiple ways these monitors can be faked-out, leading to an inaccurate result. Some examples include:
- false steps: for example, swinging the device in hand can register false steps,
- non-user motion: for example bumps in a car ride are often registered as user activity,
- anomalous pressure changes: pressure often changes for reasons other than vertical displacement, for example entering an air conditioned building from outside.
These misidentifications happen with algorithms that only treat motion instantaneously. However, activity is not an instantaneous event. No one would go from a swim stroke to a tennis swing from one second to the next. Instead, a contextual understanding of the activity is more appropriate.
Our FreeMotion Library utilizes multiple aspects of the sensor data to build a consistent context history. One way this can be used is to improve activity identification. First, user context can be matched with the instantaneous signal. For example, if the user is sitting or is in a car when a step is detected, then it can be discarded as a false step. Second, knowing where the device is located on the user (in hand, in pocket, or on arm) allows a tailored activity monitoring algorithm to be built for each case. Overall, the inclusion of user context allows for a more accurate determination of user activity, which would be welcomed by those striving to better quantify themselves.

COLUMBIA, S.C. -- South Carolina Treasurer Curtis Loftis has signed a 10-year contract with the Bank of New York Mellon, seven months after he awarded it as part of a controversial settlement.
Loftis says the contract affecting $40 billion of taxpayers' and retirees' money is an improvement over the state's previous agreements with the bank his office sued in 2011.
Changes include direct payments for holding the state's assets. Previously, the bank waived those fees in return for a 15 percent share of profits from securities lending. Loftis says no bank was willing to continue that arrangement.
The new contract effective Jan. 1 calls for South Carolina to retain 90 percent of its profits but pay custody fees from state and retirees' funds estimated at $2 million annually.
Loftis says that's more transparent.

INDIANA — The district attorney is calling the victim in an early morning shooting a hero for defending his family, even though he lost his life.
"In many ways, (he) is a hero," Indiana County District Attorney Pat Dougherty said during a Monday news conference at the PSP-Indiana barracks. "He was defending his family. I believe that if he had not been there, we would have had the possibility of more victims on our hands."
INDIANA — The Indiana County district attorney said two separate incidents in which four people lost their lives over the weekend can be attributed to domestic violence.
"Indiana County was rocked this weekend by domestic violence deaths," Indiana County District Attorney Pat Dougherty said during a news conference Monday at the PSP-Indiana barracks.
"Too often, we treat things like this as something that just happens," he said. "We see now, it's not just something that happens."
NORTH MAHONING TOWNSHIP — A 32-year-old Smicksburg man has been charged with criminal homicide for allegedly fatally shooting his estranged father-in-law, according to Punxsutawney-based Pennsylvania State Police and the Indiana County Coroner's office.
Shaun C. Fairman was also charged with aggravated assault and a firearms violation in the death of Richard E. Shotts, 55, Rural Valley, police reported.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — As Alice Cooper said many years ago "School's out for the summer." When translated, that lyric also means: The pool is open and ready for sunbathers and swimmers alike.
The George C. Brown Community Pool unofficially kicked off summer Saturday, as it opened its doors for the first day of swimming, said Jeff Overly, co-manager of the pool with Adrienne Goss.
Overly said that pool regulars will find that there is a new entrance to the pool this year located by the concession stand.
YOUNG TOWNSHIP — There were no serious injuries reported in a two-vehicle accident that occurred at 1:10 a.m. Saturday at the intersection of Snyder Hill Road and Route 119 by Wal-Mart, Young Township.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — The Punxsutawney Fire Department's Old Home Week celebration will offer a different form of entertainment for the first time, as a live band will perform one night at the carnival located behind the west side of the Punxy Plaza.
Ridin' Shotgun will perform from 7 to 10 p.m. Friday, June 29, at the carnival grounds.
"We've been exploring alternatives to draw more people into the carnival, and by having a band, it should bring out some of the people who don't ride rides," said Tami McFarland, chairperson for the Punxsutawney Fire Department's Old Home Week committee.
PUNXSUTAWNEY — April 13, Kim Leemhuis put on her uniform as a Pennsylvania State Police trooper for the last time, as after 25 years of service, Leemhuis formally retired.
She was only the sixth-ever woman to be promoted to as a major in Pennsylvania State Police history.
Despite all the changes the state police has undergone since Leemhuis began, there are still not many female officers — only about four percent.
"This is not a traditional role for women," she said.
A large storm dumped a sizeable amount of rain onto area roads in Jefferson County Friday afternoon. The heavy rain washed out numerous roads, including this portion of Jackson Run Road in Gaskill Township. Here, PennDOT inspects the washed out area as water continued to cascade under the road. Officials did open some roads after a period of time when the storms had receded. There were also reports of funnel clouds in the Punxsutawney area as the National Weather Service had issued a tornado warning.
BROOKVILLE — During Tuesday's Jefferson County Jail Board meeting, Judge John H. Foradora complimented the Jefferson County jail Warden Tom Elbel and the jail staff on several prosecutions that recently went to trial.
"They did a fine job with testimony, and the video system and phone system has all worked to a T to bring offenders to justice," Foradora said. "And hopefully, that will make the jail a more secure place."
Recent cases involved inmates smuggling drugs into the jail internally, and the jail's video equipment was a benefit to the prosecution.
School's out, and so is the sun, so that must mean that it's time for the George C. Brown Community Pool to open, which it will at noon Saturday. There will be new items in the concession stand, and Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, 10 percent of the proceeds from goods purchased at Fox's Pizza Den will go to SPLASH. Watching out for swimmers' safety this summer will be lifeguards (top photo, front, from left) Sarah Buterbaugh, Amber Baker; Miranda Schultz; (back) Lance Deet, Alicia Switlick, Alex Heitzenrater and Tyler Presloid. The pool is open from noon to 6 p.m.

THURSDAY, March 13, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Mexican-Americans have more trouble recovering from a stroke than white patients do, a new study finds.
The researchers noted that Mexican-Americans are more likely to suffer a stroke than whites, but less likely to die from one. However, these new findings suggest that the lower risk of death means an increased risk of disability.
The study looked at 513 stroke survivors in Texas. The average age was 65 among the 64 percent of patients who were Mexican-American, compared with an average age of 72 for white patients.
Compared with whites, Mexican-Americans had worse physical and mental outcomes 90 days after stroke. This included areas such as language, thinking abilities, and being able to do normal daily activities such as walking, bathing, eating, dressing and using the toilet.
Nearly one-third of Mexican-Americans had post-stroke dementia, according to the study in the March 13 issue of the journal Stroke.
"What we found most notable was the difference in functional outcome," study author Lynda Lisabeth, interim chair and associate professor of epidemiology at the University of Michigan School of Public Health, said in a journal news release. "Mexican-Americans did worse on all the measures of daily living activities compared to non-Hispanic whites."
Being unable to do normal daily activities is a strong predictor of having to be admitted to a nursing home and the need for informal care, the researchers noted.
"This study provides the first piece of information on the prognosis of Mexican-American stroke survivors. The clinical and public health information we discovered is important for future research in stroke prevention and rehabilitation in stroke survivors," Lisabeth said.
"We don't yet have a complete picture of recovery for Mexican-Americans, and what potential intervention strategies can improve their recovery," she added in the news release.

Javelin "Dip Angle" Change
Name: Justin C. Status: student Age: N/A Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: N/A
A student of mine who participates in the javelin event in track and field posed a question that I do not have any idea of how to answer. We have spoken about gyroscopes and torques. When the javelin is thrown, it spins several times a second. Why does the javelin, initially aimed above the horizontal, come down aimed below the horizontal? Should it not maintain its original orientation since it is spinning? Now since we know it does change its "dip angle", and it does not matter what hemisphere or the handedness of the throw, what force (torque) is acting on it to create this change in direction. Parenthetically, I have seen this same pattern with footballs. On a search for footballs, I have come up with no answers.
I'm not a javelin expert, but I did a little research and found out that the Javelin is weighted unevenly to intentionally cause the downward rotation. The center of mass is ahead of the center of drag, resulting in a forward 'torque'. The javelin was re-designed a couple decades ago to have its center of mass slightly forward, causing it to pitch downward during flight. This was done for safety reasons, both to reduce the throw distance, and also because a point-down landing means it will not skip or bounce. Before the change, the javelin did not rotate down, and often would land horizontally or tip-up.
The case of the football is quite different. For the football, the throwing mechanics are very different than the javelin. The aerodynamics are quite different too due to its greater drag and lower density. Depending on how and how fast the football is rotating, whether the rotation (spiral) is perfectly around its center, or slightly off center, you get different aerodynamics for the same ball. The throwing motion of the football can impart a slight nosing down motion that can explain the nosing down you occasionally see, but not all throws nose down either. Perhaps there is some small aerodynamic effect that causes the ball to nose down naturally, but I would guess the nature of the throwing motion far outweighs that effect. This is just speculation, so hopefully another respondent will give more information.
Hope this helps,
I suspect pressure and fluid flow, specifically air, are at hand here. Although this explanation is two dimensional, it can be imagined in three dimensions. Consider the javelin or football when thrown. The initial velocity is along the axis. Air flow above and below the object are the same. The spinning prohibits random motion. As the velocity becomes a little more horizontal (projectile motion), air flow is no longer symmetric. Air going over the top is closer to the object near the front end, pulling away a little near the back end. Air going under the bottom does just the reverse. It must compress a little near the back end to go around. This provides a little net downward pressure in front and a little upward pressure in back, giving the object's axis a tendency to line up with the object's velocity. An object that is not long and narrow, a baseball for example, would not experience this effect.
Due to the behavior of gyroscopes, one might expect this to cause a form of precession, a slight turn to the side. Should this begin, the air pressure effects on the sides of the object would prevent the precession. Consider a vector analysis of a javelin thrown with the right hand and moving to the left side of the screen. Angular momentum points forward, along the axis. Air pressure creates a torque out of the screen, tending to make the angular momentum rotate out of the screen. The front of the javelin starts to move out of the screen. The resulting air pressure then causes a torque downward, perpendicular to the javelin's axis.
It is possible to allow for both torques. The downward torque causes the forward angular momentum to shift downward. The torque out of the page causes the football itself to rotate, keeping it in line with the angular momentum. I believe this to be the physics of a spinning javelin.

The downward pitching motion is caused aerodynamically. The center of gravity for the weapon is forwards, while its center of pressure is behind it. The javelin will rotate on its center of gravity, but the air resistance acts as a force pushing at the center of pressure. In other words, gravity and inertial pull the front of the javelin down and forwards, while wind pushes the back, well, back.
The gyroscopic forces involved are relatively insignificant. while they are enough to counter mild fluctuations from the throw or small wind currents, they are not great enough to have much noticeable effect on the orientation versus flight direction. I suppose if you were to very carefully observe a javelin flight, you may notice javelins thrown with the right hand twisting just a little to the left, and vice versa. (gyroscopic progression)

I am just starting out trying to find my family roots. My surname is Mion. My grandfather, Louis A. Mion was the son of Lawrence Mion and Marina Rett and was born in 1882 somewhere in Italy. Previously it was believed he was born in Austria. He came to the U.S. sometime in 1890. He married Laura Burkhart, but at this time I am not sure of the date. Together they settled in the Albany/Schenectady area of Upstate New York. My mother's maiden name was Taglieri. The best information I have on her family is that my great grandfather was a brick mason and immigrated here from Italy. My grandfather Taglieri married Agnes Murray. My grandmother Agnes was the daughter of Michael Murray and his wife Mary. Michael was born in 1868 and immigrated to the U.S. in 1872. Any information on the names Mion, Taglieri, Burkhart, and Murray would be appreciated. In the mid to late 20th century they resided in Upstate New York. I will glady share any information I gather with anyone that may find it beneficial. Email me soon. I'd love to hear from you!! |

Hancock Reports First Quarter 2013 Financial Results
GULFPORT, Miss., April 25, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hancock Holding Company (Nasdaq:HBHC) today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2013. Net income for the first quarter of 2013 was $48.6 million, or $.56 per diluted common share, compared to $47.0 million, or $.54, in the fourth quarter of 2012. Net income was $18.5 million, or $.21 per diluted common share, in the first quarter of 2012. Pre-tax earnings for the first quarter of 2013 and fourth quarter of 2012 included no merger-related costs. The first quarter of 2012 included pre-tax merger-related costs of $33.9 million.
Included in the Company's first quarter of 2013 results are:
- Approximately $7.5 million pre-tax, or $.06 per diluted common share, of higher than expected loan accretion income related to cash collected on zero carrying value acquired loan pools.
- Approximately $6.6 million pre-tax, or $.05 per diluted common share, of net loan loss provision taken on the FDIC covered portfolio.
- Approximately $1.1 million, or $.01 per diluted common share, of one-time tax benefits related to specific tax credits.
Due to continued rate pressure on earning assets and other economic headwinds impacting overall revenue, management expects near term earnings to remain flat to slightly down from current levels.
Management expects these pressures and headwinds will continue into the foreseeable future. Therefore, as part of its ongoing planning process, management reviewed its long-term strategic plan to determine the most effective and efficient way of operating the consolidated organization. As part of this review, it was determined that certain areas of the Company needed to be right-sized or retooled, and as a result management is announcing today an efficiency and process improvement initiative designed to reduce overall annual expense levels by $50 million. "While it is appropriate to look back on the past year and recognize our associates' hard work in completing the core systems conversion and achieving our merger cost synergies, we must now focus on Hancock's future as one strong combined company," said Hancock's President and Chief Executive Officer Carl J. Chaney. "During this new phase of our long-term strategic planning process, it became apparent that we can no longer operate under the model of being all things to all people. We recognize that in order to overcome the challenges of both current and expected future operating environments we must make strategic decisions that could involve a change of direction in certain markets. These changes include improving the Company's profitability through short-term efficiency improvements and longer-term process improvement and re-engineering efforts. Our efforts will include reviews of both front and back office areas, a review of the current branch network, as well as a review of business models across our footprint. The Company is committed to reducing non-interest expense over the next 7 quarters, and we expect to achieve 50% of our targeted reduction by the end of the first quarter of 2014 and the remainder by the end of the fourth quarter of 2014. When fully implemented, our annualized non-interest expense will be $50 million lower than the annualized level of non-interest expense for 2013 using our first quarter of 2013 results as a base. With these expense reductions and a combination of revenue improvement and balance sheet growth, we have set a long-term sustainable efficiency ratio target of 57% to 59% beginning in 2016."Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Hoping that my blog readers (such that they are) can help me with some dream deconstruction:
It begins with the beauty of nature – life is simply a stunning incomprehensible fact. Present. Everywhere. Wonderful. It's the verdant green of Vancouver Island. British Columbia. Then I notice it's not so ideal. It's flawed. There are signs of the hand of man – in this case some oil tanks, a chain-link fence, some crappy little sheet-metal buildings. An industrial site on an otherwise uninhabited little island as I sail by.
A sudden scene change; I'm in the suburbs or a small town with my two long time male friends – A & R – both big guys. One – R – is a Leo – the life of the party type. He's a sensualist, full of passion and joie de vivre. The other – A – is the angry man. A guy that's always wearing a mask – he's a comedian and glib performer who always needs an audience and entourage, but who I often see as deeply lonely. They are my advisers in this context – just being supportive, being guys, and hanging out.
The dream is always about girl trouble – they know I don't necessarily struggle with girls but am always after the wrong girl. They marvel that I can have a wide choice, but I always focus on the one who is…Not right.
Why? She's the man-eater; a stunning but aging blonde who knows she's hot and doesn't need a man. She has a kind of "male" approach – a stable of boyfriends, guys always coming and going, but never settling into a monogamous dynamic.
I know this and I don't care – I'm like a moth to a flame. My friends marvel at my perseverance – my attempts to charm her. They know she likes me, but they also know she knows I like her – and to her it's a game. For me too, in a way; In the back of my mind I get it – and am OK with the chase, but still sometimes let it (her) eat me up. They think it's pretty amusing and are always just saying: "Don't worry about it. You have other options." But I have a harder time always just being playful and light about it. There's too much of the Byronic romantic in me.
A scene shift again. There are some children in a little house – actually out in front of a house, playing – particularly a little girl (I'm not sure if this is always a part of the dream). She's hurt herself – twisted her ankle. We're all bachelors and not exactly warm, fuzzy types so we're not sure how to react. They stand back, concerned but distant. That's my inclination too, at first. I wonder if her parents are around…
But then I just crouch down and say hello. I look at her leg – it's swollen. She tries to get up and grimaces. I turn and say to my friends "maybe she should see a doctor." They're disinterested.
Suddenly, I just pick her up in my arms. This is a totally unusual thing for me to do. I'm generally somewhat indifferent to children and little girls even more. They seem so small and fragile. Anyway, I pick her up and give her a big hug. She smiles. She hugs me back, tightly. I am suddenly filled with joy – almost to the point of tears. This is, without exaggeration, one of the most beautiful, pure and lovely experiences of my life. Transcendental – yet so simple. I put her down and she runs off, apparently feeling fine.
The scene shifts again. Now I'm alone and looking into the water. Underwater. There's a sort of diving bird there. A cormorant. It plunges down to grab a fish – and spears through it. Suddenly, the fish almost explodes. Gets eviscerated. The viscera then transform into…Puppies?? Totally weird, especially since I think that this fish was to be food for the bird's young. I think about life; How we idealize animals and nature. But even the cute ones (like rodents and, yes, even puppies) can end up as someone else's dinner.
Shift again, to a living room. Talking with my two friends about "the girl" again. They're amazed. In the know, somehow, that this has all happened before…
I get up and leave…Drive away (even racing away from A who is following in another car). At one point I'm driving crazily, quickly backing up along a winding road. The car flips. I get out, not hurt, but feeling silly. I think that driving is an interesting thing to be doing in a dream for me, since I've only recently started driving regularly. Then it hits me…I'm dreaming!! Not only that, but it's a recurring dream. I realize I've had this dream, or at least parts of it (my friends, hanging out, talking about the girl trouble) before. I literally try and climb up out of it…Up a staircase from some basement. All along, I am repeating to my friend – "It's a recurring dream A!" over and over as I go up the stairs. I get to the top of the stairs and there's a door. I open it. A man, his face and features not visible, is standing there in the doorway. I awake with a start, aware I've been talking – even kind of yelping – in my sleep.
N.B. When I got up I still felt very powerfully that this was a recurring (and in my notebook I initially wrote "recurrent" in every instance) dream I've been having for some time, but never recall much after waking. So I grabbed a pen and furiously wrote this all down.

Who: Glee star Lea Michele
Where: at the SAG Awards at the Los Angeles' Shrine Auditorium
Wearing: An emerald green Catherine Malandrino dress teamed with Tiffany jewels
Verdict: One of my best dressed last night. I love the colour, the plunging neckline, the ruffles and most of all that she has her hair down, at last week's Golden Globes she had it up. She is definitely loving the red carpet and that is showing for me and along with Dianna Agron she has brought back old-school Hollywood glamour.Congratulations to the Glee cast they won the gong for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Comedy Series.

mid September days
I thought I'd post these pictures on a separate thread as there's getting to be a lot of pictures on the main thread and I didn't want to slow it down....
The garden is looking overall pretty pathetic although there are still individual good things happening.
The Hot Coacoa rose in the herb bed between our driveway and the neighbour to the south put out a couple of really tall canes this year. The tall canes put out nice boquets of blossoms - this boquet is almost finished, but you can see some buds for the next one to come:
The Sweet Autumn clematis on the north fence in the backyard is scenting the air very sweetly these days. This view is looking down on it from the back porch:
I couldn't get very good pictures of the heptacodium Deanne but here are two. The first is taken from the end of the driveway, looking north along the ditch/lawn to show how tall the tree is getting. The large shadow on the grass and the plant on the left edge of the picture is the Chinese wisteria tree. The heptacodium is at the far end - all you can really see in this picture is the splatters of white flowers!:
This view is down the main path in the front bed. The heptacodium is the white flowers at the end:
This picture is to show the asters at the end of the driveway border. The pink ones (which came out sort of red in this picture!) are just starting to open:
Moving on to things other than the sad-looking garden....
This past Thursday we went to the farmers' market at St. Jacob. We bought a big bag of Roma tomatoes. On Saturday we turned 28 lb. into tomato sauce after reserving 16lb. for chutney - which we'll make tomorrow:
Here are some fuzzy beast pictures for gb. The lounge (chair) lizards on the back porch:
Misty takes refuge in her little 'house' - in the base for the kitchen table - when Pheobe is pestering her too much in the kitchen:
It was a nice day so Barb and I took the beasts for a walk at the marina this afternoon. A couple of poor quality pictures from the marina....:
I've been eyeballing the box of Roma tomatoes at my local farm stand :) Nick's Nonnie taught me how to make homemade sauce and I thought it might be fun.
I'll have to show my heptacodium what it should strive to grow up and be!
Great pictures. Nice to see Phoebe's visit...funny, she looks as if her feet barely touch the ground, as if she's always prancing :)
I think your garden is looking lovely and quite lush. I think we are all too critical of our own gardens ;o) I have tons of romas this year. I made an oven full of dried tomatoes on Sat. and a huge bowl full of fresh salsa last night.
I was hoping to have a show of blooms on my Sweet Autumn Clem, but something completely defoliated it !!! It is on the old chicken house, and...because of chiggers, I didn't venture out there very often this summer.
Most of my roses suffered the same fate.
No canning for me. I used to do all those things...but no more.
Now you have made me desire a Heptacodium. :-)
I like all your pics. Poor Mysty...taking refuge under the table. :-)
Phoebe is a fortunate fuzzy to be in your care, Woody. I love that Misty has found security from too much commotion, but something tells me she probably takes full advantage of it, too! You would have understood my unflinching stance on enforcement when Rex had a tantrum this morning. He was on leash and next to me. The oil delivery truck arrived. He wanted to run and greet and had a tantrum when I enforced the "sit/stay". I didn't back down and "give in". He walked "politely" with me to say a POLITE hello. The helpmeet is not nearly as demanding as I am about those things and I've been too lax of late, it would appear... . Why don't you, Jerri, or Cynthia live next door?! :)
Your yard and gardens are so pretty and so lush! Heptacodium was one of the plants we considered when we bought the bigger evergreens in the shots I've posted of the shrub border. I admired Les. and Monique's which is about as large as your's. It's a handsome plant; lovely bark and the late season flowers are real treat. Saucy, you have something to look forward to.
No cookin', no kids, no cannin'. I clean up the trail and savor the fruits of the labor, never failing to remark on how delicious it all is! :) (one day, no doubt, I'll have to set myself to culinary tasks, but until that time... I'll focus on the dishes and laundry, thank you!).
Tell me again why you don't live next door?
It still looks like early summer by your house Woody. Did you get any of those mums in the background at the market? The marina picture is beautiful, what a great place to walk the dogs. I like Misty's little "house."
I have two heptacodiums, but they're still young and waiting to grow up to look like yours.
The photos of the garden very definitely involved a lot of carefully selected shots to avoid the messy stuff - and I took about 4x as many as I posted, in order to weed out the worst ones!
Surprisingly, this is actually the first year we made tomato sauce. We usually just make a couple of batches of tomato chutney (the first batch is cooking as I type this - it smells great in here!) We have Randy's mother's old tomato grinder so we decided to give making sauce a shot. We froze three big tubs of just plain sauce for use later and Randy made a meat sauce with the rest - it was excellent.
Chelone - you'd be appalled at Misty's manners if you lived next door! Actually, she'd probably behave herself with you. She has so many personality kinks from her abused younger years that it's too late to totally eradicate the bad habits. But she's much more civilixed than when she first moved in. We still don't trust her with stangers until she's given evidence that she considers them acceptable. She has mostly learned that anyone we let in the house is not going to hurt her. Once she decides a person is not going to hurt her, she usually becomes very cuddly/friendly. But you can't drop your guard too much with her.
She's 11 now and slowing down a bit. Her tolerance for puppy play is a bit less - she tires more easily. But she still enjoys the puppy attention - she just calls it quits a bit sooner than she used to. She has her 'safe zones' - under the kitchen table, under my desk, and other nooks and cranies that she's small enough to get into but big puppies won't fit! She's very smart :-)
Phoebe has become quite friendly with Zoe, the young Rottweiler. Phoebe looks very disappointed if we pass by and Zoe is not out to greet her. Phoebe met Charlie (miniature poodle) during our lunchtime walk. So she's met all the neighbourhood pack now except Roma (Malamute) I think. Phoebe is more relaxed this visit - in part I think because she's a bit older but mostly because she knows us, our routines, the neighbourhood and has lots of doggie buddies to greet each day.
Anita - I didn't got any of those mums but a couple of weeks ago I planted mums in the big pots the peas were in earlier in the year. They were just sitting on the driveway with soil in them but nothing else so I popped the mums in easily.
Wonderful photographs Woody and I especially love that shot of your Heptacodium framed in that arch! What a classic. Lovely! Thanks for sharing these with us. I might just have to find room for one of those HOt Cocoa roses. Jerri and I saw some beautiful specimens at the Fuller Rose Gardens this summer and it looks like a great bloomer for you.
I can almost smell your sweet autumn clematis! I had to chop mine back for the porch work, and I do so miss it.
Misty is adorable, her little face is so nicely framed :)
Gosh, if you all were closer, I'd be giving you tomatoes until you begged for mercy. Jim planted something like 8 plants. I see the Romas are needing to be dealt with.
I'm not familiar with heptacodium, I'll have to research. It's lovely framed in the archway.
Woody...thanks for sharing your photos. Your fall garden looks nice. Love that aster at the end of the driveway and would love another photo when it opens up more. What is the purple behind it? Such a nice screening from the street. I have a small SAClematis but it has no fragrance to my great disappointment. That was 75% of the reason I got it. Then I read somewhere that you should buy them when in bloom because they are not always fragrant. Very pretty!
I see you are all dressed for fall. Is it cool there? We are still having summer weather for the most part. That is a gorgeous marina. How lucky to have such a nice place to walk the dogs!
Woody, that is some sweet autumn clematis. I can imagine the smell. I quit trying to grow it because there is a bug that always stripped it just before blooming. I did transplant a seedling to the swing arbor this year and sure enough the bugs showed up. I did treat it and kept knocking them off since the vine was still small, but I don't think I am going to get any blooms. I enjoyed the marina area where you walked the dogs too. If you were nearby I would send Rebel over while we take a short trip. LOL though he would push you over. He likes to lean on people to much. I think he is pretty tuckered out tonight. Both DH and I took a RALAT (riding around looking at things) on the tractor at different times today and he went along both times. The raging waters that went through the creek with the Ike remnant rains have really changed things once again. I went around most of the back property and see that I need to get busy mowing with the brush hog when we get back. Need to finish up a few garden things first though.
You guys crack me up. I too had seen the typo but was reluctant to bring it up.
Martie Yea! for Rich. Hope he gets to do the work.
Marian I enjoyed the cozy family shots. I'm thinking the youngest GD favors you a bit?
I'm typing in the box so I better try to post what I have, and catch the rest of you another time.
I'm working on backing up my files in case this computer decides to pull another disappearing act. Norma
PM2 - the purple behind the pink aster is another aster that opens before the pink one, but the bloom times overlap a fair bit. Here is a closer view of the purple one:
This is a picture of the pink one from last year, dated Oct 6 so it's a late bloomer:
The marina is a great place to walk. When we first moved to this town, there wasn't anything there but the original pier and a muddy field of fill. About 12 years or so ago the marina started being developed. It's only been in the past 6-7 years or so that it has been as fancy as it is now. There are a bunch of expensive townhouses that have gone up across from it in the past couple of years and more to come. The marina is at one end of a fairly extensive path along the lake. The Town has a policy now that any development or redevelopment of property along the lake must result in giving the Town 30 or 40 feet (I can't remember the exact amount) of the land directly on the lake. The goal is to have the waterfront trail extend from one end of town to the other. There are long stretches in place in various parts of town but it's not continuous yet.
The heptacodium is maybe 6-7 years old now and it has really started to take off finally - it was slow at first. It actually looks a bit odd from some angles - you can see it is right in front of the cedar. The back side has no horizontal branches at all because it is too close to the cedar. All the brances face south and the north side is completely flat! It's most noticeable in winter or from one angle looking at it from the road. In winter it's quite an interesting tree just from the branch structure. To me it looks like a mathematical decision-tree. The trunk has two main branches; each of those brances has two branches; each of those has two, an so on... I don'tknow if all heptacodiums are like that or just this one.
Woody, I always enjoy pics of your garden. That Hot Cocoa is such a great rose but a tricky color to fit in ! I figure it matches well with Gallardia , Lobelia laxiflora, and a yarrow that I have that is a terra-cotta ish red. Definately a 'hot border' candidate. Phoebe is getting so big ! You can really see it in the shot of your friend with her and Misty. I wonder how close she is to full grown ...
Kathy in Napa
No, Norma, you didn't miss them. I haven't posted them :) Before shots are taken, and my plan is to get things all tidied up and take the after shots. Look out when we get back from vacation..I'll be pelting you all with pictures of all sorts!
Beautiful pics Woody. I love the color of your rose. Wow I can just imagine the scent of your sweet autumn! I just love that smell and really appreciate that you don't have to "get right on top of the plant" to smell it. Is that pink aster 'Alma Potschke'? Wonderful fall scenes...thanks for sharing!
Very pretty asters, Woody! I especially am fond of the deep pink. I would like to know if you pruned them earlier in the summer and if so, how much did you cut them back by?
Your town is very smart to be sure that you end up with access to the marina with all the development. Which lake does the marina open up to?
Ei- yes, the pink aster is Alma. I'm not sure exactly what the purple-blue one is.
PM - the marina is on Lake Ontario.
Dang! I want my new computer NOW! (It's not due until next week.) Randy's Dvorak keyboard setting is not working so typing is extremely slow!
Woody, your gardens look so lush. The asters especially catch my eye. No flopping, and no dried up bottoms on the stems. So unlike mine this year :) Love the shot framed by the arch and the overhead of the clematis. What a great show that puts on for you. Misty is a smart cookie to find her little haven. The marina looks like a nice place for dog walks. I always mean to tell you how much I love the soft yellow color of your house too! Thanks for sharing. It was great touring your September garden.

Memo to critics: Thou shalt not groupthink
"One Film Is Making History," trumpets an advertisement for the movie "Sideways." The basis for the claim is the fact that "Sideways" has been named best picture of the year by more reviewer groups than you probably knew existed - from the New York Film Critics Circle, of which I'm a member, to the Southeastern Film Critics, the Toronto Film Critics, and similar outfits from Boston to San Francisco.
Looking at the best-of-year choices compiled by individual critics, "Sideways" also rides high. It's listed as No. 1 by reviewers for publications as different as Entertainment Weekly, The Boston Globe, the Los Angeles Times, and New York magazine.
Other movies such as "Million Dollar Baby" and "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" also pop up on list after list.
Such sameness doesn't happen every year. The most honored 2002 movie was "Far From Heaven" with nine awards, and in 2001 it was "Mulholland Drive" with 11. Last year it was "The Return of the King," though, with a whopping 22 wins - the same number "Sideways" has gotten so far. Uniformity could be a growing trend.
I'm not complaining about critical kudos for the 2004 movies I've mentioned. "Sideways" was on my own 10-best list, with "Million Dollar Baby" and "Eternal Sunshine" right beside it. I am complaining about something else - namely, the near-unanimity of opinion that surges through the great majority of 10-best rosters and awards.
In elevator conversations after press screenings, my colleagues and I often find ourselves on very different wavelengths. Sometimes a dozen of us have a dozen different points of view on the movie we've just watched.

I've been hearing talk about DHS Ordering 1.2 Billion Rounds Of ammo ( some are hollow point ) plus large amounts of Riot equipment !! On the Campaign Trail the Lying King Said" we need to establish a domestic army as well trained and equipped as our Military counterpart !! Governor; Could you Check this Out

Please run for the next presidential election. I cannot take another minute of President Obama. I am upset every night when watching the news. I feel in my heart that Obama is the worst president that has ever held office. He has total disregard for the American people. He only thinks of himself. -
Dear Governor Huckabee
Love your show and I won't
miss one of your shows.
The American people are in such a difficult time right now. The question that bothers me the most is why
a man like President Obama chose this country to become a Dictator. This is
the way I see him and so do
many of my neighbors.
If l5% of the USA does not have
health care then why didn't
Obama simply offer that group a reasonable health plan subsidized or not instead of including the whole USA. It is of the utmost importance that ALL
Federal employees even Obama
are included in this ObamaCare. What is good for
the goose is good for the gander. Thanks for all your
wonderful comments on your show----you tell it like it is and we so appreciate it.
Many blessings. -
Raleigh Johnson
Mike, one commenter expresses her frustration with President Obama and his administration for "decimating medicare", with the purpose of making medicaid the only option. She further states that "many doctors have already stopped seeing medicare patients because the writing is on the wall".
The reality is doctors have indeed seen the writing on the wall which says "they can no longer fraudulently bill Medicare patients for medical procedures which they did not receive".
The deceptive and hypocritic oath they earned is finally being challenged by the hippocratic oath they swore to keep.
With regard to seniors and others knowing the facts; if they understand the facts it is doubtful they would have purchased the junk insurance policies which provided no coverage for catastrophic illnesses and left them without hope of recovering from the extreme financial out of pocket cost of uncovered medical bills.
The first item on their bankrupcy list is medical bills.
She also states that "there was a measure taken (an HR something)that disallowed republicans from questioning fraud in the 2012 election. If that is true it's because of the republican's reputation for "Straining at a gnat and swallowing a camel".
Republicans are known for pulling the fire alarm lever after providing the gas, lighting the match and making sure the fire truck is drained of water.
By the way, the raiding of Social Security funds preceded Obama's Presidency.
The reference to President Obama as a Socialist, Communist, Marxist might possess some elements of truth, although overstated.
Actually, before those terms were coined with such negative implications The Apostles, after the assention of our Lord Jesus Christ, oversaw a voluntary economic order to meet the needs of all members of the New Testament Church that mirrored what we know today as socialism. Acts:4:32-37.
The use of the terms today is meant to instill fear, and hatred often by those who are greedy for gain and possess an "Us Four And No More" mentality.
Both capitalism and socialism are flawed constructs because they rely on the corupt nature of man to administrate.
We are not as bad as we could be but we are as bad off as we can be without Christ at the center of our lives and that we cannot blame on Obama.Raleigh Johnson

Now the latest is obamacare.gov. is closed down because of maintenance. Big Laugh,lol! What maintenance? They haven't even gotten it organized for efficient operation! Hope people are listening to what is really going on.

BATON ROUGE - Investigators said an overloaded electrical outlet caused a fire which damaged three Baton Rouge homes Friday afternoon.
The fires all happened around 1:15 p.m. at 36th Street and Gus Young. No one was hurt, but two dogs died in the fires.
The Red Cross was called to help five people displaced from the fires.

I was really jazzed to learn I had been chosen as a guest contributor for the COM – I am simply won over with all of the lovely little pieces of sweetness made by Lesley Watt at Thea Jewellery. It is warm fuzzy feelings every darn time I see them – they touch a child's long ago memories in me. The color palette, the shapes everything. All evocative of a place I had all but forgotten and wish I could visit one more time.
I was sent a lovely little button type bead/charm with a fern-like motif. I had already formed a few ideas before I got it, but once it arrived, all of those went out the window – and I knew that a hint of my days as a small child hunting fossils with my mom, along with the small 'fossil' imprint on the bead had to be incorporated and remembered.
I made a little copper woven something I call the Labyrinth Clasp, because the button closure needs to travel along the inner path to stay secure. I sort of reminds me of ancient labyrinth stone carvings, and fit into the ancient/fossilized theme. Wove together some leather and glass beads, then popped in a cute little button rose for a touch of femininity and contrast. Finally, I added the Thea Jewellery button as a clasp to tie it all together.
Thhe finished bracelet is shown on my 'other' inspiration for the bracelet a totally cool fossil shell my mom and I found way back when. I love how the old and new blend together.
I hope you will visit all of the contributors to the Art Jewelry Elements Component of the Month - they have some serious inspiration for you!

Montego Bay
Tel: 800 972 2159 (toll-free)
Tel: 876 956 7050
Concierge.com's insider take:
Like a mini-Mustique, this former pineapple plantation on a 110-acre peninsula in Montego Bay is a collective run by the owners of its 29 villas. Past owners have included Noel Coward, Oscar Hammerstein, Bill and Babe Paley, and Viscount Rothermere; these days, Ralph Lauren keeps two villas here (along with a neighboring estate). His influence can be seen in the English country/tropical Wasp decor of the main building called the Pineapple House—the 36 deluxe rooms here have checkerboard floors, blue-and-white striped furniture from his home collection, and bamboo four-poster beds swathed in netting and white linens. The rooms also have ocean views, and all the usual comforts except for TV (there is a common TV room, if you're really jonesing). Most of the villas, which can be rented in their entirety or split into suites, have private pools. Kids are well catered to with a daylong Pineapple Kids' Club, and an annual summer tennis clinic at no extra charge. For the grown-ups, there's a spa with Elemis aromatherapy products and a nightly semiformal dinner at the Seaside Terrace restaurant.
