Like many of you, Patti Campbell is proud to display the logos of companies that help fuel her passion for tournament fishing on the rear window of her truck. But it was the BoatUS Angler toll-free phone number on a card inside her wallet that not only warmed her soul recently – but also kept her safe.
Patti was her daddy's self-described tomboy and got hooked on fishing as a little girl; she carried the passion into adulthood, and even married a serious bass angler in husband Ricky. Separately, they have competed as individuals in some of tournament bass fishing's toughest trails and hauled home major paychecks. Together, they are a common site at couple's tournaments around Texas.
But Ricky wasn't with Patti a few weeks ago at 7:00 a.m. on what should have been a peaceful Sunday morning drive home to Waxahachie, Texas from a Lady Bass Anglers Association tournament at Old Hickory Lake in Tennessee.
"I was on Interstate 40 about 54 miles from Nashville when I looked in the side mirror of my Tundra and saw my trailer wheel was on fire," explained Patti, a computer guru for CoreLogic in the mortgage industry. "There were flames shooting up from what turned out to be a burnt hub, and there was very little room to pull off the highway safely."
"I pulled over the best I could and called Ricky, but he was 600 miles away. Then I remembered I had signed-up for the BoatUS Angler Unlimited On-the-Road Towing service, and I called their toll free number that was on the card in my wallet," said Campbell.
When BoatUS answered Patti's call of distress, they did not disappoint. "The dispatcher was so nice. He kept me calm while he searched his computer for one of their affiliated service providers. He quickly found one just down the interstate. After they fixed my hub, the BoatUS dispatcher even called me back to make sure that I was still traveling safely down the interstate," explained Campbell.
"I told the wrecker driver that I'd spent $38 to sign up for the BoatUS service, and he looked at me and said that my membership had just paid for itself about four times over," said Campbell who list Senkos and Buckeye Lures' Spot Remover jig heads tipped with a finesse worm as her favorite lures.
Campbell is also signed-up for the "Weigh-to-Win" program so that she is eligible to win cash bonuses from BoatUS Angler when she does well in her tournaments.
"What I'll remember most about the whole experience was how personal BoatUS treated me. The whole service just really made me feel good. I'll definitely sign-up again next year, and I'm going to add their On-the-Water freshwater Towing service too," concluded Patti.
Getting a BoatUS Angler membership with on-the-water or on-the road towing and signing-up for their Weigh-to-Win program like Patti did, is easy. Memberships are as affordable as $38. Just dial (918) 742-6424 and ask for Kendell. She'll make sure you're registered.

Still in play
The line attached to the ball is durable. The line shows wear or stretching at points along its length. But it has been pounded by some big hitters so overall it holds up well.

Atlanta (May 18, 2010) –
David Kimmel, who joined benefactor Bernie Marcus' team three years before the Georgia Aquarium opened, and led the consortium that designed, created, built and staffed it, has just been named its president. The Georgia Aquarium Board of Directors announced his selection after Anthony Godfrey resigned for personal reasons.
"David was there from the first day, part of the first team I officially engaged to bring the vision of the Georgia Aquarium to reality," said Marcus, co-founder of The Home Depot and CEO & benefactor of Georgia Aquarium.
"He has an intricate knowledge of the Aquarium; he knows how to lead an organization; he will take excellent care of the guests and the animals, and he has the ability to look to the future as the Aquarium continues to grow and change. With David Kimmel taking the helm, the Aquarium moves right along, without missing a beat," Marcus added.
Kimmel, 55, most recently served as VP, Director of Program Management for Heery International, a full-service architecture, interior design, engineering, construction management and program management firm. Heery was the project management company retained by the Aquarium under the leadership of Kimmel, to develop the specifications and contracts for all firms associated with the project and to oversee all phases of construction. Kimmel and Heery were engaged again in 2007 to be the Program Manager/Owner's Representative for the dolphin expansion, scheduled to open November 2010.
He and his wife Lorraine have one daughter.
"It is an honor I accept with enthusiasm and commitment, knowing what the gift of the Aquarium means to Bernie Marcus and his family and to the millions of visitors who have experienced it," Kimmel said. "I have lived and loved the Georgia Aquarium every minute and every day that I have been a part of it, and I look forward to the opportunities and challenges that I will face. In the 44 months it took to develop the Aquarium, I lived and breathed it – my involvement went beyond the bricks and mortar of the facility.
"The Aquarium has a solid leadership team, people I have worked with on a day-to-day basis for more than eight years. Going into the office every day will be like 'going home.' My goal is to keep the Georgia Aquarium exciting for our guests," Kimmel added. "My biggest challenge will be keeping up with Bernie. The man never stops thinking of incredible ideas for the Aquarium."

Nice job guys, really thought the new video was good as well as the song too!! :-)
Nice performance! ^^ [music video]
Too bad about ur GF! ;-)

banginn music guyzzz!!!!!!!keep it up
I really enjoy the acoustic feel to your music in the light piano and strumming guitar in the background but then you (don't make fun of me for my big words, I'm in an English AP class, I don't know how to write normally anymore :P) juxtapose the acoustic with heavier guitar and drums, creating depth and dynamics. The vocals are crisp and clear; the melody fits very well with the vocal range.
Overall, I'm very impressed with what I've heard, and I'm only on your first song! Way to go! (: (I'm on the second one now, and already I like the contrast from the first song. Kudos.)
i went to your web site it was cool and the video were cool to. i am a big fan

Dave Otto (5 am to 9 am) Ever since leaving my hometown of Minneapolis and breaking into radio at 19 in Catskill, N.Y., I have traversed the country from coast to coast creating havoc and leaving a trail of broken marriages. My first major market job was in Phoenix where I was officially given the moniker "Crazy" Dave Otto after being ruled legally insane by the court. That label stuck with me through gigs in Houston, San Diego, Cleveland, Boston and Dallas before finally being told by my PD in Denver it was too juvenile. I thought that's what he hired me for!
I have received numerous citations over the years (mostly traffic) and the two awards that were actually related to radio were later taken back when it was discovered a bribe was involved.
I remain single because…well…if you were a woman, would you want to mess with all that baggage?
Teresa Brown (9 am to 2 pm) Born to an Irish father and a Cherokee mother, I am a tempest of wild humor and deep irony. As soon as I learned to talk I started telling stories, singing and making people laugh. From bungee jumping in Virginia Beach to dealing blackjack in Las Vegas, I've enjoyed a variety of career choices before finding a home on the radio. Some folks call me "That Kid's Mom"…I love my daughter Mia and my two "Bonus" sons Jimmy and Myles, my house is the place where the neighborhood kids come to play. I have a wonderful husband, Jim, and I work hard to be sure that he and the kids are happy and healthy and doing the right thing. My life is exciting and drama filled just like yours. I cook, I clean, I drive to work and I love to hear stories about the "French", nuns that do amazing things and people who appear naked in public. If we can make each other smile and listen to some great music together…come on and hang out with me….it's just a matter of time before I will find something funny or sad or stupid to tell you about….and we can always laugh at the naked people!!
Jennifer Wilde (2 pm to 7 pm)
I got into radio by accident when I was heard singing along to the songs playing at a radio station happy hour remote when I was 20. I was recruited by the morning show DJ to sing a parody he'd written. From there, I started writing and performing my own parodies and acting in bits for the morning show. The next thing I knew, I landed a full time job in radio. I dropped out of college to pursue my passion for entertaining and I haven't looked back. I'm also an actor, a singer, the mother of two sons and a daughter, and a wife. I enjoy designing and creating jewelry, photography, running, long walks and bubble baths. I've never met an animal that I didn't love and strays always seem to wind up at my door knowing I'll help them. Oh and I also have nice smelling hair.
Zack Taylor (7 pm to 12 am) I'm a passionate man in the world of radio! I love long walks on the beach, shrimp, cool looking sunglasses and telephones that you can actually operate correctly without accidentally hanging up on the person on hold. Listen and call me every evening as I brush up on the telephone part.
Now for some word association: First Station – WFSH Niceville, Florida / College – University of Mississippi / Hobbies – Gym, Racquetball / Favorite Constellation – Orion / Fun Factoid – I speak 6 languages but not particularly well…including English
Chris Hatton (12 am to 5 am) When I'm not on the late night shift, you might find me on the ice (lying down), in the fairway (hopefully) or in the gym (really?).
I also do my fair share of hiking and biking, weather permitting of course.
After 10 plus years, I still love entertaining people and I'm thankful every day that you give me that opportunity.

These are the common core standards for English language arts. Look specifically at what is required in grades 6-12 in social studies/history and science/technology.

Port Allen council rejects ordinance to reinstate mayor's higher salary
POSTED: Thursday, July 11, 2013 - 4:00am
UPDATED: Thursday, July 11, 2013 - 4:04am
Port Allen, LA (NBC33) — Mayor Demetric "Deedy" Slaughter expects a pay raise, but she will not get it just yet.
The city council voted 3-2 Wednesday night not to introduce an ordinance that would have increased her salary from $65,000 to $84,960.
The mayor's salary was reduced before Slaughter took office, when it was written into the city's 2012-13 budget. Last week, a judge ruled that the method in which the council made that change was improper. The judge ordered the council to write a new ordinance restoring the mayor's salary to the higher figure.
An ordinance came before the council for introduction during its monthly meeting, but was rejected by a 3-2 vote.
"The way this was worded [Wednesday], the agenda item was to just amend the current budget," said councilman Hugh Riviere. "That's not what the judge ordered, so I didn't feel comfortable acting on that."
"And I have to agree," said fellow councilman R.J. Loupe. "The judge did state that we did it wrong and we need to do it right. So let's do it right."
Riviere, Loupe, and Garry Hubble voted against introducing the ordinance; Ray Helen Lawrence and Brandon Brown voted in favor.
"This has been dragging on," Lawrence stated, "and we've been fighting and fussing and stressing."
Loupe added that he wanted to see the ordinance come before a committee before it was discussed in front of the full council.
"Another month and we'll just bring it up [through] the proper procedures and move on," he stated.
The vote fell along familiar lines. Hubble, Loupe, and Riviere, who are white, have often voted together against the mayor, while Brown and Lawrence, both of whom are black, have often voted with her.
Before the vote was even taken, citizens accused the mayor, council, and each other of racism.
"You said the city was divided long before you took office," one man told Slaughter. "It has gotten much worse in the last six months.
"You said the three white council members made it clear they would not agree with everything that you do," he continued. "I hope not. Their job, including the two other members, is to serve the people that elected them and the City of Port Allen."
Others compared Slaughter favorably to her predecessors, Roger Bergeron and Derek Lewis.
"She's going by the book," one man said, speaking to the council. "Cause she ain't gonna end up like the last mayor we had (Lewis), behind bars.
"But now we got a new mayor who's going by the book, and can't nobody take it!"
"[Bergeron] did wrong, cause he brought somebody in that had a record," one woman said, turning towards the white members of the audience. "You didn't say a word! Y'all kept it among yourselves!"
Before the meeting began, some citizens put a sign in the grass across the street from City Hall which read, "Riviere won't stop sore loser."

As we sit here today more than 13 million people across the Horn of Africa are in urgent need of assistance. This crisis is about more than the famine and nutritional emergency, it is a crisis that is multi-faceted and calls for a multi-sectoral response in which the health, nutrition and food security, water, sanitation, protection and education sectors all play a role. Throughout the region, agencies are working to ensure a coordinated response through its implementation with partners and in their respective leadership role in selected clusters/sectors.

Nice flower. They are one of my favorites, perhaps because they do not grow up here, so they are a treat when I see them. Only thing I don't like about the front face views is that the pistil is not in focus, right dead center, and that, to me, is very distracting. In the side view, you have the interesting parts in nice focus.

[iPhone] Read over 45 Million product reviews by actual consumers with BuyOrNot
Posted By Tucker On February 7, 2013 @ 12:18 AM In iOS | No Comments
[1]About two weeks back, we reviewed an iPhone app called Consumr [2]. What made Consmr different from other similar apps out there is the fact that the scanner doesn't just provide info about the product you are looking up, but also looks up alternative and related products. Simply use your camera to scan the barcode on an item, and you will see product reviews, "better buy" alternatives, and other nearby locations where you can purchase the same item.
It was a decent app, but I wasn't totally satisfied. In my quest for the best shopping app, I decided to check out BuyOrNot. Unlike Consumr, BuyOrNot is only about product reviews and offering suggestions for places to buy an item: if you want price comparisons or product suggestions, BuyOrNot is sure to disappoint.
Main Functionality
BuyOrNot lets users scan an item's barcode, and then receive a listing of websites with tons of user reviews to help you make an informed purchasing decision. That's it.
If what you crave in a product review app is simplicity, the super-streamlined and minimal interface of BuyOrNot will be [3]to your taste. The primary goal here is just product reviews, not price comparison or product recommendation. That makes this a handy app for when you are shopping in a store, and want to compare a number of similar items on the shelf. It would be perfect for picking out a new printer or comparing different e-readers, for example.
Now this app is only on version 1.0, so more functionality may be coming in future updates. It would make sense to include price info, seeing as the app already pulls info from online retailers. On the other hand, I really appreciate how streamlined this product review app is.
The highest marks of all go to the camera. I've used a ton of different barcode scanners over the years, and all I can say about this one is "Holy cow!" I've never seen an app that can capture a barcode image so quickly, or in any orientation. The only downside is how the app reacts when it has no search results.
If you like the experience of browsing in a physical store, but don't want to give up your access to the plethora of user reviews that you get when you comparison shop online, BuyOrNot is just the tool to help you pick the best item for your needs. Whether you're hunting down the best new audio equipment, or the best herbal supplements, this app has got your back.

"I believe that there is no life for the Jewish community in the future unless that life becomes part of the life of Florence," said Fink, who was the prime mover behind the project. "I'm not afraid that the Jewish community will die, but it needs to be part of what happens around it."
The idea of the Café, therefore, was not just to entertain with concerts and aperitifs, but, he said, to serve as "a way to start building relations between the town, the synagogue and the Jewish community — and that's what happened."
About 300 people turned up for the first Café in early June — most of them Jewish community members and their friends. But each week the numbers grew, thanks to enthusiastic local media coverage as well as word of mouth.
"It conquered the city," journalist Fulvio Paloscia wrote in La Repubblica. By the summer's last Café, on Aug. 29 — where I was featured in a public conversation with Fink about Jewish culture and mainstream society — the event drew 800 people. Crowds milled about the garden and listened to two concerts, one by a klezmer band and one by Sephardic singer Evelina Meghnagi. They also mobbed the food stand, where some 450 kosher meals were sold.
Retired computer systems operator Giuseppe Budillon told me he came every week. "I am Christian but I am attracted to the Jewish community," he said. "This Café Balagan is doing a lot."
In sharp contrast to other days of the week, security seemed minimal — people could enter with their phones, cameras and backpacks. Cividali said this, too, sent a message. "Security can't impede us from living," she told me. "And I feel that the more open we are, the safer we are, as the synagogue and garden are felt to belong to the city."
Renzo Funaro, vice president of the Foundation for Jewish Heritage in Italy, called the Café "a cultural revolution." It was, he told me, "the first time that the Jewish community's garden became an element of Florentine culture."
What's more, unaffiliated Jews who had had nothing to do with organized Jewish life in Florence also began turning up, thanks to the buzz. And volunteers came from as far away as Siena each week to help.
The question for the community now is where to go from here. "The success this summer has paved the way for future activities," Fink told me. Plans for new initiatives this fall and winter, Fink said, could include a "Balagan Shabbat," or open Shabbat dinner on Friday nights, as well as smaller indoor events such as book launches.
The non-Jewish Florence mainstream, Fink said, "now perceives this as a place they can expect to come to — not somewhere that is fenced off. This creates a better situation for everyone."

Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay has found himself in a kitchen nightmare after former employees of his Los Angeles eatery are suing him for what they say are unpaid wages.
Four former employees of The Fat Cow restaurant filed a class-action lawsuit Thursday in Los Angeles Superior Court, claiming, among other things, that they were forced to work grueling eight-hour shifts without a meal break. They're also alleging that hourly employees weren't always paid their minimum wage of $8 an hour and denied overtime pay.
The plaintiffs say they were not provided with proper documentation for their hours worked and their compensation.
Gordon Ramsay Blasts Father-in-Law, Celeb Chefs
"There were hand-written paychecks sometimes. There was … no accounting at all," attorney Lauren Abrams, who is representing the group of former employees, said.
Ramsay, 46, has built an empire shouting expletives at aspiring chefs and struggling restaurant owners on reality-TV shows "Kitchen Nightmares" and "Hell's Kitchen." His fiery temper has contributed to his media appeal, but has also been the subject of much criticism.
"He makes a career off going into restaurants and telling them how to properly run their business," said Lauren Benge, a former barista at The Fat Cow.
A representative for Ramsay acknowledged the issue but pointed to previous management. "We are aware there was a problem with previous management, which has since been changed, but this is totally unacceptable if any truth to it," the representative told ABC News.
Gordon Ramsay Dropped as Restaurant Partner, Sues for $3M
Ramsay, who earned $38 million last year, does not run day-to-day operations at The Fat Cow, which opened in September.
"I think there comes a certain responsibility when you have your name on an establishment. We were sold on the dream of working for a world-known chef," Andrea Bourke, who was also a server at The Fat Cow, said.
Montinique Dever, a former hostess at The Fat Cow, said she doesn't believe all the blame falls on the hot-tempered chef.
"Nothing was ever told to him," she said. "We couldn't tell him anything. He could not know anything."

Coffee consumption and risk of total and cardiovascular mortality among patients with type 2 diabetes

Higher habitual coffee drinking has been associated with a lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes. The relation between coffee consumption and risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) has been examined in many studies, but the issue remains controversial. This study was designed to assess the association between coffee consumption and CVD mortality among patients with type 2 diabetes.
We prospectively followed 3,837 randomly ascertained Finnish patients with type 2 diabetes aged 25 to 74 years. Coffee consumption and other study parameters were determined at baseline. The International Classification of Diseases was used to identify CHD, CVD and stroke cases using computerised record linkage to the national Death Registry. The associations between coffee consumption at baseline and risk of total, CVD, CHD, and stroke mortality were analysed by using Cox proportional hazards models.
During the average follow-up of 20.8 years, 1,471 deaths were recorded, of which 909 were coded as CVD, 598 as CHD and 210 as stroke. The respective multivariate-adjusted hazard ratios in participants who drank 0–2, 3–4, 5–6, and ≥7 cups of coffee daily were 1.00, 0.77, 0.68 and 0.70 for total mortality (P<0.001 for trend), 1.00, 0.79, 0.70 and 0.71 for CVD mortality (P=0.006 for trend), 1.00, 0.78, 0.70 and 0.63 for CHD mortality (p=0.01 for trend), and 1.00, 0.77, 0.64 and 0.90 for stroke mortality (p=0.12 for trend).
In this large prospective study we found that in type 2 diabetic patients coffee drinking is associated with reduced total, CVD and CHD mortality.

A T pass?
I couldn't decide what to post for Labor Day. A letter? More Love Letters Spam? Updates?
Instead, here's something that's more of an etiquette problem than a love problem, a letter we wouldn't post on a regular day but is good fodder for debate on a holiday Monday.
We'll get back to real problems tomorrow. In the meantime, discuss love on the T. And … am I the only person who finds Charlie from the Charlie Card moderately attractive? He's got a little Don Draper in him, I think.
Q: I'm a frequent reader and am curious to hear your advice on a conundrum I've been having. I consider myself to be a funny, kind, non-threatening, likable guy in my late 20s, but I'm initially very shy and have some self-confidence/self-image issues. This leads me to have difficulties meeting women, in general.
My question is -- what's the etiquette regarding talking to women on the T? Maybe it's because I'm shy, but I'm always skeptical when a random person tries to strike up a conversation on the T, but is it like that for everyone? Are women generally guarded against a guy approaching them on the train, or is it possible to make friends during the evening commute -- without getting maced?
– Curious Commuter, Saugus
A: You're allowed to approach a stranger, CC. But if you are rebuffed, please retreat.
You can say, "Nice backpack," and smile. You can say, "I feel like I see you every day. You must work near me." You can simply grin and nod. But if the object of your affection rolls his/her eyes or doesn't respond, that's your answer. Move away. Stare out the window. Forget it ever happened.
I'd like to think that we're all allowed one chance to make a respectful pass. As long as your body language suggests that you're a shy-yet-hopeful guy who's not looking to steal a purse, you shouldn't get maced.
Just be prepared to move to the other end of the car if you get a dirty look. And don't take it personally if you do. Some people want their commute to be a quiet time. But I'm sure many folks out there would love it if a nice, cute, shy guy said hello during a long ride.
Readers? Are you open to being approached on the T? Is that weird? Is it any weirder than being approached in a bar? What's the trick? Is this harder on the Green Line? Discuss.

Featured Program
Connecticut Public Broadcasting Network's Education Department is collaborating with the 7th grade students at America's Choice at SAND School in Hartford.
Now in its third year, Media is Magic (MIM): the SAND Media Enrichment Program is designed to reinforce the students' core curriculum to produce higher levels of student engagement and achievement. In 2010, SAND Acting Principal Latesha Jones said, "Some of our students have started out in the 50 percentile range in testing and those students who participated in CPTV went on to master skills at an 80 to 90 percent mastery level." The program that started in 2010 as an after-school journalism and technical media skills program has become a literacy enrichment elective within the daily school schedule. Lead instructors have all been graduates of the CPBN Media Lab, starting with Anna Nalitov in 2010, followed by Julia Kwon in 2011 and Mark Yaworowski in 2012. Current CPBN Media Lab interns provide additional mentoring to help the students improve their research, story-telling and presentation skills. The Media Lab, part of CPBN's Department of Education Services, develops production and instructional expertise by providing a real-world learning opportunity for college students and recent graduates with a passion for digital media and journalism
- Latesha Jones, Acting Principal SAND school
"The students create curriculum-based content, a process that drives them to actively apply their classroom lessons in math, science, English and social studies. The students are encouraged to research more thoroughly, write more convincingly and present more clearly -- skills that will aid them throughout their academic careers," said Paul Pfeffer, senior instructor and Manager of Education at CPBN, "the students' natural affinity for technology was a great asset."
Each class involved in (MIM) learns to work with media production equipment, including HD video and still cameras, tripods, professional microphones, cables and microphone stands, and interview lighting kits. Video editing software is installed on all the computers in the classrooms. Training on the use of the equipment, which includes proper set-up, break down and storage, is provided, along with learning how to recognize and critically evaluate the elements of a professional video production.
At the conclusion of each of the subject-specific learning modules in 2010, the SAND students and their teachers -- Marcus Jennings, Randy Silmon, Felicita Rosario and Brittany Wilson -- visited CPTV to be interviewed about their video projects. Additionally, while in the CPTV studio, students enhanced their learning by performing professional television production tasks. As a result of their efforts, four student-produced, half-hour episodes aired on CPTV and three student-produced hour-long programs were streamed online at www.cpbn.org.
In 2012, CPBN's Education Department established a PBS NewsHour Student Reporting Lab at America's Choice at SAND School in Hartford. There was only one other elementary school and only three middle schools in this nationwide program, which included over 40 schools from New York, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., South Carolina, Florida, Michigan, Illinois, Louisiana, Utah, Texas and California.
The PBS NewsHour Student Reporting Lab connects high school students through an innovative journalism curriculum designed to transform their understanding of news. The partnership includes an online collaborative space to develop digital media, critical thinking, and communication skills and a network of public broadcasting news professionals to that provide important resources necessary for students to produce original news video reports about how national and global issues affect local communities.
"I have worked as a mentor since the inception of the PBS NewsHour Student Reporting Lab program in 2010," said Paul Pfeffer, Manager of Education, " I know the SAND 7th graders will meet the challenge of competing against high school teams throughout the country. We will produce network quality videos."
Donna Sodipo, Vice President of Education at the Connecticut Public Broadcasting Network (CPBN), commented on the program. "This partnership affords students early exposure to the digital media industry and more importantly the academic skill set required for success. Throughout this elective class, intentional linkages are made to the Journalism and Media Academy and our partnership alignment with the district—serving as the satellite campus for the senior class completing their capstone project at the Learning Lab at CPBN."

Up Your Appeal
Three easy tips to remake your entrance, from curb to door:
1. Prioritize Your Mailbox
The mail carrier's not the only one who notices if it's shabby. Spray-paint it with an outdoor-durable product, like GHRI-tested Rust-Oleum Universal Gloss ($8, home and hardware stores).
2. Step Lightly
Solar accent lights can illuminate your walkway and won't waste any electricity. Place lamps close enough together that their light overlaps (typically every three to six feet).
3. Class Up Your Entryway
Front door need a redo? Choose exterior paint based on the door's material. Or take the distraction approach: Flank the door with low-effort potted plants, or plant inexpensive annuals like impatiens.
