Spend Valentine's Day With the Underwoods
house of cardsFrank and Claire are back with a vengeance on V-Day. (Spoilers ahead).
If you follow Netflix's wildly popular political thriller "House of Cards," you can't ignore the irony of its second season's Valentine's Day release. (If you don't, watch season 1 before you continue reading, and be warned that there are plenty of spoilers ahead!)
The story about the ambitious and calculated political power couple, South Carolina Congressman Francis "Frank" Underwood (Kevin Spacey) and wife Claire (Robin Wright), picks up right where season 1 left off: Underwood is sworn in as the new Vice President of the United States amid the Machiavellian cover-up involving the "suicide" of Pennsylvania Congressman Pete Russo.
Netflix will make all 13 episodes of "House of Cards" Season 2 available on Friday, February 14. In the meantime, here's the only primer you'll need before the big day:
1. Francis "Frank" Underwood: A former congressman and majority whip, Underwood (Kevin Spacey) goes from being snubbed by the new administration of President Garrett Walker (Michael Gill) to being appointed as the new vice president thanks to his grand political scheme, which includes getting in bed with the press (both literally and figuratively) as well as assisting in the "suicide" of one of his political pawns.
2. Claire Underwood: Played by Golden Globe-winner Robin Wright, the politically calculating wife of Underwood goes from running a clean water initiative to Second Lady of the United States, thanks to her husband's power schemes.
3. Zoe Barnes: Played by Kate Mara, the young and eager reporter—who sleeps with Underwood (as approved by Claire) in exchange for game-changing scoops—turns down a prestigious White House correspondent position with The Washington Herald to work for the emerging blog Slugline.
4. Doug Stamper: Played by Michael Kelly, Frank Underwood's Chief of Staff (and accomplice) goes the extra mile to ensure his boss gets away with the killing of Congressman Pete Russo—including manipulating a young recovering prostitute he may (or may not) be in love with.
5. Raymond Tusk: Played by Gerald McRaney, Tusk is a billionaire and close confidant of President Walker. He advises McRaney to appoint Underwood as the new Vice President so that his nuclear energy businesses can benefit from allies in positions of power.
6. Garrett Walker: Even the President of the United States may have fallen victim of Underwood's schemes and calculations. Either way, his administration is about to get rocked by a major scandal involving corrupt business deals, manipulation of the press, and even an assassination.
7. Linda Vasquez: Played by Sakina Jaffrey, the White House Chief of Staff is one of Underwood's most crucial chess pieces as the unholy alliance they develop threatens to end her boss' administration.
Stream season 2 of "House of Cards" on Friday, February 14 on Netflix.

belief that only things of a single kind exist. In its most extreme form, monism may lead to Spinoza's conviction that only a single being is real or the idealist's supposition that everything is comprised by the Absolute. Contemporary philosophers more commonly suppose that many distinct things exist, each of them exhibiting both mental and physical properties. Recommended Reading: Errol E. Harris, Spinoza's Philosophy: An Outline (Humanity, 1992); German Idealist Philosophy, ed. by Rudiger Bubner (Penguin, 1997); and Mafizuddin Ahmed, Bertrand Russell's Neutral Monism.
[A Dictionary of Philosophical Terms and Names]
<metaphysics> answer offered to philosophical dualism by adherents of idealism and of materialism. Monism holds that reality is made up of only one type of substance, historically either spirit/mind (according to idealists Berkeley) or matter.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
A betaine (BEET-ah-een, /ˈbiːtɑːˌiːn/) in chemistry is any neutral chemical compound with a positively charged cationic functional group such as a quaternary ammonium or phosphonium cation (generally: onium ions) which bears no hydrogen atom and with a negatively charged functional group such as a carboxylate group which may not be adjacent to the cationic site. A betaine thus may be a specific type of zwitterion. Historically the term was reserved for trimethylglycine only. It is used as a medicine as well.
The correct pronunciation of the compound reflects its origin and first isolation from sugar beets, and does not derive from the Greek letter beta (β). However, it is often mispronounced beta-INE or even BEE-tayn.[1]
In biological systems, many naturally occurring betaines serve as organic osmolytes, substances synthesized or taken up from the environment by cells for protection against osmotic stress, drought, high salinity or high temperature. Intracellular accumulation of betaines, non-perturbing to enzyme function, protein structure and membrane integrity, permits water retention in cells, thus protecting from the effects of dehydration. It is also a methyl donor of increasingly recognised significance in biology.
The original betaine, N,N,N-trimethylglycine, was named after its discovery in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris) in the 19th century. It is a small N-trimethylated amino acid, existing in zwitterionic form at neutral pH. This substance is now often called glycine betaine to distinguish it from other betaines that are widely distributed in microorganisms, plants and animals.
Phosphonium betaines are intermediates in the Wittig reaction.
The addition of betaine to polymerase chain reactions improves the amplification of DNA by reducing the formation of secondary structure in GC-rich regions. The addition of betaine has been reported to enhance the specificity of the polymerase chain reaction by eliminating the base pair composition dependence of DNA melting.[2][3]

Parents may think that noise is a problem they need not worry about until their child reaches the teenage years. Not so. Some toys are so loud that they can cause hearing damage in children. Some toy sirens and squeaky rubber toys can emit sounds of 90 dB, as loud as a lawn mower. Workers would have to wear ear protection for similarly noisy sounds on the job.
The danger with noisy toys is greater than the 90-dB level implies. When held directly to the ear, as children often do, a noisy toy actually exposes the ear to as much as 120 dB of sound, the equivalent of a jet plane taking off. Noise at this level is painful and can result in permanent hearing loss.
Toys that pose a noise danger include cap guns, talking dolls, vehicles with horns and sirens, walkie-talkies, musical instruments, and toys with cranks. Parents who have normal hearing need to inspect toys for noise danger.
Before purchasing a new toy, listen to it. If the toy sounds loud, don't buy it.
Examine toys you already have at home. Remove the batteries or discard the toys if they are too noisy and pose a potential danger to hearing. Some parents place heavy duct tape over the speakers on noisy toys.
The Sight and Hearing Association publishes a list of the noisiest toys each November, just in time for the holidays.

Every day small businesses are suffering a "silent kiss of death" because of one simple thing: The way their telephone is answered.
The way you answer your telephone is incredibly important. At this critical point, your caller will make several immediate assumptions about you and your company. They will make assumptions about the value of your service, whether you know what you are doing and, most important, whether you care or not.
I Didn't Understand a Word You Said
How many times have you called a company and the person answered the phone with a mumble? Then you have to actually confirm that you called the right place. Or how about this one: A short, gruff answer with the company name: "Bob's."If you understand the lifetime value of a client and the importance of first impressions, this is a humongous mistake. The worst of all is the simple "Hello"; I thought I was calling a business.
Obviously not.
Answering your phone with a "Hello" says you are not a real business. If you have your calls forwarded to your cell phone, you can still answer like it is an office phone. Always greet the caller with "Good Morning/Good Afternoon (Your Company Name)" or better "It's a great day at…"
If your caller has already been greeted by an auto attendant, or you have calls coming in from more than one enterprise, say "Good afternoon, this is (your name)." It should always be positive and enthusiastic. When receiving the call, make sure that there is no distracting background noise such as radios, other employees, office machines, etc. And certainly make sure there aren't any kids crying or dogs barking.
Institute a Standard Greeting
Try these: "It's a great day at (Your Company Name), how may I help?" or "Good morning/afternoon (Your Company Name), how may I direct your call?" Use "How can I assist you?" instead of "Can I help you?" when the person answering the phone is actually the one doing the helping, and use "How may I direct?" when the person taking the call will be passing the call over to someone else.Make sure that the greeting is clear and can be easily understood by the caller. Remember, it may be the first time they have ever called your company, and they could be distracted when they call. Speak slowly and clearly. And above all, be very enthusiastic!
Never, ever, answer the telephone with "Hold please." If your phones are really busy, answer, "It's a great day at (Your Company Name), can you hold for just one moment?" Wait for a response. No matter how big your company is, there is never a time when it is OK to just say, "Hold please." What a turn off!
Transferring the Call
Another costly mistake is "May I ask who is calling?" Long ago, I worked at a travel agency and the manager of this serious business taught me to never say, "May I ask who is calling?" Instead, say, "May I tell him who is calling?" The reason is that "asking" is invasive, and implies that you shouldn't be calling. "Telling" implies that you are just doing your job to get the message to that person. To transfer the call, ask "May I place you on hold for just a moment while I ring his office?"Taking a Message
If the person is not in (assuming that someone else can't take the call), come back to the phone and say, "May I have So-and-So call you back?" Notice that nothing is said about whether he was "in" or not. That's because that's another no-no. Don't say "He's not in." The caller is wondering where in the world is this person, and why aren't they at work where they are supposed to be? And don't say, "He's not available." That's even worse, because it screams to the caller, "You're not important enough!"Instead, if pressed, say, "He's not in his office, may I have him call you back?" This statement covers you whether he is in or out. It also implies that he is in (therefore at work and not loafing somewhere!). If an approximate time can be given to the caller when to expect a call, that would be best.
And last but certainly not least: always say thank you! It is the customer service representative's job to say thank you, not the customer's. It is our pleasure and privilege to serve a caller.
A few years ago, I called a rental car agency. The "customer service" rep was a monotone, just-take-the-information type person. When he was done making the reservation, he said, "Will that be all?" I said "Yep." I was expecting him to say "Thank you for calling" or something to close the call. But he said nothing.
He asked again, "Will that be all?" I said "Yep." I could tell this guy had a chip on his shoulder and didn't want to stoop to such a low position of serving. Silence again. This guy was actually resisting saying thank you! He broke the silence with "Will that be all sir?" I said "Yep."
Finally, he says "Well thank you for calling." I said "Thank you!" See how easy that was? I guarantee you that it didn't hurt him one bit. When the customer says thank you first, you say thank you!
The Final Mistake
We could spend all day on positive phone, but I think you get the picture. Here is a final item that will deplete your power over the phone: when you respond to a customer thank you with "Uh-huh," you just told them psychologically that you don't care. "Uh-huh" is a lazy, untrained, ineffective choice that should never be used. If "You're welcome" is appropriate, spice it up a little. How about this: "You are sooo welcome!" or "You are certainly welcome!"Put some enthusiasm behind it. There's a potential lifetime client on the other end, for crying out loud.

K-Automotive Motorsports is happy to announce that Brian Keselowski will be back on the track in the NASCAR Sprint Cup No.92 Chevrolet, at Michigan International Speedway, on Sunday, June 19, 2011.
Keselowski said in a recent statement: "Making the decision to leave Dodge and go with another manufacturer was a hard decision to make but as an owner I need to think of what is best for the team & the company and it's what I need to do to try and make races to keep racing and pay the bills, so that is why I've made the switch. While I am not happy about parting ways with Dodge, I am looking forward to our new venture with Chevy. Maybe in the future I'll be able to work with Dodge again but for right now, Chevy is the way we've chosen to go & I'm hopeful this will benefit all involved".
K-Automotive Motorsports is also happy to announce the return of Melling Engine Parts as a proud sponsor for Keselowski's No.92 Chevrolet at Michigan International Speedway. The Melling's family have a long history in NASCAR starting when owner, Harry Melling of Melling Tool, sponsored Benny Parsons in 1979. The team began in 1982 with driver Bill Elliott by sponsoring Elloitt's #9 Ford that season. Throughout the years the Melling's have endured the ups and downs of racing with various drivers and sponsors and ultimately closed it's doors on their No.92 race team during the 2003 season and sold their shop to Arnold Motorsports.

Cuba has given up complaining about such incursions through diplomatic channels. "Lately we are dedicating ourselves to public denunciations, because our experience with more discreet measures is that they never have produced a concrete result," Alarcon said. "Sometimes it is really ridiculous," he chided, and called the U.S. authorities' negligence in the majority of cases "criminal."
In the post-September 11 atmosphere of Cuban-on-Cuban recrimination, Havana has taken the opportunity to reassert that deploying spies in South Florida to detect terrorist plots was and remains just and noble. "These five compatriots," Alarcon announced, referring to the five undercover agents convicted this past June, "tried to help us prevent actions that these people were going to do because the North American authorities do nothing in relation to that."
During some of his diplomatic contacts in the Eighties and Nineties, U.S. officials even expressed tacit approval of Cuba's spying on exiles, Alarcon divulged, although he declined to offer specific names or dates of the meetings. "Never did any North American [official] say to me: �Hey, but that is a violation of North American laws,'" he avowed. "They have always understood that we have the right, and that we're even obligated to do it.... Because they knew that it wasn't anything against the United States.... And not only that, they said they would even be grateful if we would pass along the information, because in some way it could be useful to them."
The destruction of two Cessnas by a Cuban MiG in February 1996, killing four Brothers to the Rescue members as they flew toward the island, halted any hidden spirit of cooperation that U.S. and Cuban officials might have shared regarding exile violence. The deadly shootdown doesn't exactly fit the definition of terrorism, in light of the repeated warnings Brothers to the Rescue founder José Basulto and the two other pilots received from U.S. and Cuban authorities. But that doesn't keep Basulto and others from calling it one of the most brutal acts of "Castro-terrorism" ever. "If you tell me that a MiG attack on two unarmed civilian planes isn't an act of terrorism, I don't know what is," Basulto remarked.
"Recently, sadly and savagely, this country has learned how much damage civilian, unarmed aircraft can inflict upon its population," convicted spy Gerardo Hernandez told U.S. District Judge Joan Lenard at his sentencing hearing last week. "This is why, perhaps, its top leaders have warned that any aircraft that threateningly deviates from its established path could be shot down even if it carries hundreds of passengers onboard." Lenard sentenced him to life in prison for espionage and conspiracy to murder in the shootdown. (Click for full text of Hernandez's remarks.)
The September 11 attacks have breathed new life into an enduring effort by exile activists to argue that Castro is the real terrorist. Under the Cuban Patriotic Forum's principles, setting off bombs in urban areas and shooting at hotels and commercial vessels is not terrorism but a right. "Down with terrorists and down with the totalitarians of the world!" Eugenio Llamera exclaimed to a Radio Mambí reporter as the rain poured down before the "God Bless America" march in Little Havana on Saturday, October 20. Llamera, a former political prisoner, organized the demonstration along with other Patriotic Forum members.
Like Bosch, Llamera is one of the guys Havana points to when arguing that U.S. authorities have a special tolerance for terrorists of the Cuban-exile variety.
Llamera, for instance, was in a four-man Comandos L squad that took a boatful of weapons into Cuban waters on July 4, 1992. After a firefight with Cuban patrol boats, the exiles fled and were about seven miles off the coast of Varadero when the vessel broke down. The U.S. Coast Guard rescued them. The FBI later questioned the four and released them. One, former Black Panther Tony Bryant, stood trial on illegal-weapons charges. He was acquitted. None was charged with violating the Neutrality Act. At a January 1993 news conference, Bryant warned tourists to stay away from Cuba because Comandos L was planning more attacks. Four months later, according to Cuban and U.S. law-enforcement sources, Llamera financed a machine-gun attack on a Cyprus-flagged tanker, the Mikonos. Commandos fired on the ship as it steamed toward the Cuban port of Carúpano. Llamera denied involvement in the Mikonos attack. But he considers his commando operations to be acts of war, not terrorism. "You think that is sabotage or terrorism?" he exclaimed. "That's bravery on the part of four men." No charges were brought by U.S. authorities in this case or in several subsequent strafings of coastal hotels.
The local brand-Castro-a-terrorist campaign extends well beyond Llamera and other small-time anti-Castro firebrands. U.S. Rep. Lincoln Diaz-Balart (R-Fla.), University of Miami professors Jaime Suchlicki and Eugene Pons, and even El Nuevo Herald also are getting licks in.
Of course the Havana government does not have a pristine record when it comes to terrorists. The authoritarian regime is on the U.S. State Department's list of nations that promote terrorism (along with Libya, North Korea, Iraq, Iran, Sudan, and Syria), though its rationale could apply to Paris, Madrid, or South Boston: "Cuba continued to provide safe haven to several terrorists and U.S. fugitives in 2000. A number of Basque ETA terrorists who gained sanctuary in Cuba some years ago continued to live on the island.... Havana also maintained ties to other state sponsors of terrorism and Latin-American insurgents. Colombia's two largest terrorist organizations, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia and the National Liberation Army, both maintained a permanent presence on the island." The only additional information was that Cuba provides the Colombian guerrillas with "some medical care and political consultation"; "some ETA members allegedly have received sanctuary in Cuba while others reside in South America"; and Cuba "also appears to have ties to the Irish Republican Army through the two groups' legal political wings." It makes no mention of any ties to al Qaeda.

Florida Man Accused of Pleasing Himself in Public Shows Deputy Rash on His Genitals to Prove He Was Just Scratching Himself
Police in Port St. Lucie received a call that a man was masturbating in a CVS parking lot, but the man avoided jail time by showing the responding deputy his genitals to prove he was just scratching an itch caused by a rash.
A woman notified police after she noticed a man sitting in his car in the drug store parking lot who appeared to be masturbating. According to Off The Beat Blog, she said the man was "making an up-and-down motion in the area of his crotch." The woman, however, did not see the man's genitals actually exposed.
Police found the man inside of the CVS, but the man claimed wasn't pleasing himself, but rather that "he got the urge to scratch his testicles." The man says he reached into his shorts and started scratching himself in his car. When he noticed the woman was looking he stopped.
The man then asked the deputy if he could show him his rashy testicles to prove he was just scratching. If we were the deputy, we'd probably just be like, "No, that's cool. I'll take your word for it." Though, this deputy is clearly very dedicated to his job and searching for the truth. So the man whipped out his junk, and indeed there was a rash.
With no proof that the man actually exposed himself, and a plausible excuse, the deputy decided that he wouldn't arrest the man.

Sunday, February 3, 2013
A SPRINGER spaniel had a lucky escape after becoming stranded on a seafront cliff face.
A team of rescuers had to be called into action to help Buddy, who had found himself in peril on the coast at Walton on the Naze.
The drama unfolded at about 3.15pm on Saturday afternoon and Buddy's owners asked for the help of the emergency services.
The Walton Coastguard Team and crews form the town's fire station used special cliff rescue equipment to reach the hound, who had fallen about 10ft onto the cliff face.
He was helped to safety and was unhurt from his ordeal.

Beginning Construction
To investigate geometric concepts, we are building a city. Each group builds a different section of a city and must incorporate many geometric concepts including lines, angles, polygons, polyhedrons, non-polyhedrons and more! The city will look really cool when we are finished because parts of the city are 3-dimensional.
Please take a moment to answer our new poll on the right– we are going to add the data to our city project.
We also added a new book, "Because of Mr. Terupt" by Rob Buyea to our Shelfari on the left…we latched on to this book after reading the first line. The first sentence starts out "It's our bad luck to have teachers in this world,…" What?!? The first chapter definitely has our attention.
Students – check out this video that Pierson and I made to help us review some basic geometric ideas that we talked about yesterday. We are going to be adding these concepts to our city today! You should have these mastered!

The Health Care System We Have…
And the system we could have had:
Every so often I have an extraordinary and surprising experience with a patient—the kind that makes us both say, "Wow, we've learned something from this." One such moment occurred recently.
The insurance policy, the clerk said, would pay up to $2,500 for the surgeon—more than enough—and up to $2,500 for the hospital's charges for the operating room, nursing, recovery room, etc. The estimated hospital charge was $23,000. She asked him to pay roughly $20,000 upfront to cover the estimated balance.
My patient was stunned. I received a call from the admitting clerk informing me that he wanted to cancel the surgery, and explaining why.
I explained that just because he had health insurance didn't mean he had to use it in every situation. After all, when people have a minor fender-bender, they often settle it privately rather than file an insurance claim. Because of the nature of this man's policy, he could do the same thing for his medical procedure. However, had I been bound by a preferred-provider contract or by Medicare, I wouldn't have been able to enlighten him.
Most people are unaware that if they don't use insurance, they can negotiate upfront cash prices with hospitals and providers substantially below the "list" price. Doctors are happy to do this. We get paid promptly, without paying office staff to wade through the insurance-payment morass.
So we canceled the surgery and started the scheduling process all over again, this time classifying my patient as a "self-pay" (or uninsured) patient. I quoted him a reasonable upfront cash price, as did the anesthesiologist. We contacted a different hospital and they quoted him a reasonable upfront cash price for the outpatient surgical/nursing services. He underwent his operation the very next day, with a total bill of just a little over $3,000, including doctor and hospital fees. He ended up saving $17,000 by not using insurance
This process taught us a few things. First, most people these days don't have health "insurance." They have prepaid health plans. They pay premiums to take advantage of a pre-negotiated fee schedule arranged for and administered by a third party. My patient, on the other hand, had insurance.
Second, even with the markdown for upfront "cash-pay" patients, none of the providers was losing money on my patient. Otherwise they wouldn't have agreed to the prices. With the third-party payer taken out of the picture, we got a better idea of the market prices for the services. It is the third-party payment system that interferes with true price competition, so "market clearing prices" can't develop.
Take the examples of Lasik eye surgery or cosmetic surgery. These services are not covered by insurance. Providers compete on the basis of quality, outcomes and price. And prices have continually dropped as quality and services have improved—unlike the rest of health care.
When my patient returned for his post-op visit we discussed the experience. It was clear to both of us that the only way to make health care more affordable is to diminish the role of third-party payers. Let consumers and providers interact through market forces to drive down prices and drive up quality, like we do when we buy groceries, clothing, cars, computers, etc. Drop the focus on prepaid health plans and return to the days of real health insurance—that covers major, unforeseen events, leaving the everyday expenses to the consumer—just like auto and homeowners' insurance.
Now, I know this story will drive Captain Arizona to hurl himself into the deepest chasm of the Grand Canyon (here's hoping—just kidding, Cap'n!), but it just re-proves Margaret Thatcher's maxim: the facts of life are conservative.
Cue today's America!
Sadly, we are heading in the exact opposite direction. ObamaCare expands the role of the third party and practically eliminates the role—and the say—of the patient in the delivery of health care. Will they ever learn?
Remember when candidate Obama likened Republicans to bus drivers landing their vehicles in a ditch? Hasn't he steered the nation's omnibus straight off Captain Arizona's steepest, deepest canyon bluff? It's a hell of a ride. Until the end.

[ Locations | Map themes & related | Cartographers ]
[ Return to 19th century regional US maps ]
A mid-century map of the western part of the United States, one of the first maps to show the state of California and the territories of Utah and New Mexico. The map is an updated version of a map that appeared in S. Augustus Mitchell's Universal Atlas of 1849. The southern part of the region shown in that map, "Upper California," had just been won from Mexico in 1848, and Mitchell's map was important for presenting the vast new U.S. territories to the American public. In 1850, the rights to Mitchell's atlas were sold to the firm of Thomas, Cowperthwait & Co., which reissued the atlas with some updating. That year the newly acquired lands were divided by Congress into the state of California and two territories, Utah and New Mexico; Thomas, Cowperthwait & Co. revised the Mitchell map accordingly.
Besides the new political information that appeared on this map, what had appeared on the 1849 map as the "Great Interior Basin" is now somewhat filled in based on Fremont's map, renamed "Fremont Basin." Other topographical features included considerable orography, rivers, and lakes. The Great Salt Lake is shown, next to which is "Salt Lake City. Mormon Set.," which had just been settled in 1847. Early settlements and a coastal road are illustrated in California, and the old Spanish trail between Santa Fe and Los Angeles is also indicated. Of further interest is the prominent depiction of the Oregon Trail, shown snaking from present-day Colorado to the Columbia River. The entire region north of Utah and California appears as the Oregon Territory, which it remained until the Washington Territory was created in 1853. Thomas, Cowperthwait & Co. continued to revise this map, for in 1851 they came out with a further up-dated map retitled "A New Map of the State of California," and with more information provided on the counties of the territories and state. This is a fascinating and historical important map, one of the first to show the new political situation in the west after the Compromise of 1850. $875
Carl Flemming. "Californien, Oregon, Utah und Neu-Mejico." From Heinrich Berghaus's Vollständiger Universal-Handatlas. Glogau, Germany: C. Flemming, 1854. 15 1/2 x 13 5/8. Lithograph by C. Flemming. Original outline color. Very good condition. Denver.
Carl Flemming was the founder of an important German firm located in Berlin and Glogau and this map shows characteristic German detail. Germans were very interested in the western parts of the United States at this time and the atlas from which this map came contained not only two maps of the United States as a whole--one single sheet and one four part map--but also a number of regional maps including this one of the region to the west of the Rocky Mountains. The topography is graphic but quite confused. The entire region is shown consisting only of California and the three territories of Oregon-which encompass the entire northwest corner-Utah and New Mexico. $475
"A New Map of the State of California, The Territories of Oregon, Washington, Utah & New Mexico." Philadelphia: Charles Desilver, 1856. 16 x 12 3/4. Lithograph. Original hand color. Very good condition. Denver.
Charles Desilver, one of the many publishers working in Philadelphia during the mid-nineteenth century, issued an atlas of maps based on the famous Tanner-Mitchell-Cowperthwait series. Desilver used much the same information as originally drawn in the 1840s, but updated the maps with new counties, roads, towns, etc. Here the country west of the Rockies is depicted with the state of California and the rest comprised of just four territories: Washington, Oregon, Utah and New Mexico. Settlement in those territories was quite sparse at the time, with some cities shown, and a number of counties developed in the western part of the northern most territories. The map was issued just after the Gadsden Treaty (1854) so the current southern border with Mexico is depicted. Of note are depictions of the southern route proposed for the Pacific Railroad, the Spanish trail from Santa Fe to Los Angeles, the routes of Lewis & Clark and Fremont, and the Oregon Trail. Forts are indicated, as are the territories of various Indian tribes. Of interest is the small section entitled "Middle Park," which is shown as part of Utah, but which is currently part of Colorado (the western part of which is shown as part of Kansas Territory. Overall, a terrific and up-to-date map of the western United States. $575
"Territories of New Mexico and Utah." New York: J.H. Colton, [1855]-1856. Third state. 12 1/2 x 15 1/2. Lithograph. Full original hand color. Very good condition. Brown: 3; Wheat: 832. Denver.
An early example of J.H. Colton's important map of the American Southwest. With the American victory in the Mexican War (1846-48), the United States gained a huge amount of land to the west of the Louisiana Territory. In 1850, the territory gained outside of California was divided into two territories: Utah to the north, the home of the Mormans, and New Mexico to the south. This was one of the first maps to show this region and this early version of Colton's map--which went through at least 12 states until 1863--shows the original configuration of the two territories.
The map is copious in its detail, with forts, Indian tribes, counties, mountains, rivers, lakes all clearly depicted. This information is impressively accurate, being based on the various explorations in the area. The routes of a number of these explorers are shown, including those of Fremont, Stansbury, Kearney and Gunnison (the latter noting that "Capt. Gunnison Killed by Indians"). Also indicated are the Cimarron Route from Ft. Leaveworth to Santa Fe, the Spanish route from Santa Fe to Los Angeles, the Oregon Route, and the different proposed routes for the transcontinental railroad. This map is interesting in showing Colorado (then mostly part of the Kansas Territory) just before the Gold Rush of 1858-1861. Over the next 8 years, this region would undergo tremendous changes, documented well in Colton's series of maps, of which this is the third state, differentiated from the previous state by the name "Chihuahua" replacing "Mexico" in the bottom right. $395
F.W. von Egloffstein after surveys by John N. Macomb. "Map of Explorations and Surveys in New Mexico and Utah...by Capt. J.N. Macomb Topl. Engrs....1806." New York: Geographical Institute, 1864. 30 3/4 x 37 1/4. Tinted aquatint engraving. Some separation and very light discoloration at folds. Overall, very good condition. Wheat: 983. Denver.
A nice example of what Carl Wheat called "one of the most beautiful maps ever published by the Army," a map that "is a landmark map for various regions." It shows the region around the "four corners" in the American Southwest, based on surveys from an 1860 expedition led by Captain John N. Macomb to explore the Old Spanish Trail from New Mexico towards Utah. The expedition is important in its confirmation that the Green and "Grand" (now Colorado) Rivers joined to form the Colorado just above the Grand Canyon. The map was printed in 1864, but didn't actually get published until 1875 because of the Civil War.
Wheat's comments on its importance is not only based on its geographical significance, but also because of its documentation of the routes of various explorer's routes, including Macomb's as well as those of Gunnison, Marcy, and Father Escalante and others. The last factor in Wheat's judgments is it striking appearance, where it looks almost three dimensional. This is the result of a technique of depicting topography developed by F.W. Egloffstein, where his intent was to "give his map the appearance of a small plaster model of the country." This was achieved by applying very fine lines on the plate by use of a ruling machine (done by Samuel Sartain), which were then exposed to acid to varying degrees to achieve the desired appearance. Only a few maps where made using this difficult process and this is the finest example thereof. The map is a wonderful depiction of the main drainage areas of the American Southwest, as well as many other features such as pueblos, archaeological sites and settlements, all conveyed with a remarkable appearance that few other maps have every matched. $1,800
W.H. Gamble. "County Map of Utah and Nevada." Philadelphia: S. Augustus Mitchell Jr., 1865. 11 1/4 x 13 3/4. Lithographed by W. H. Gamble. Hand color. Very good condition. Denver.
For most of the middle part of the nineteenth century, the firm founded by S. Augustus Mitchell, Sr. dominated American cartography in output and influence. This fine map is from one of his son's atlases, and it shows the territory of Utah and the state of Nevada in the final year of the Civil War. Towns, rivers, roads and other topographical information are clearly shown, and the counties are shaded with contrasting pastel colors. When Nevada became a state in 1864, the border of Utah and Nevada was moved east from the 115th to the 114th meridian. Although dated to 1865, this map still shows Nevada's eastern boundary at the 115th meridian. Note also that Nevada extends south only to the 37 degree latitude. An interesting early rendering of the region. $150
W.H. Gamble. "County Map of Utah and Nevada." Philadelphia: S. Augustus Mitchell, Jr., 1867. 11 3/8 x 14. Lithograph by W. H. Gamble. Original hand color. Very good condition. Denver.
An updated version of the above map from the Mitchell firm. Published two years later, this map shows the newly formed Lincoln Country, and Utah's expanded land claim eastwardly to the 114th meridian, giving it further access to navigable waterways. In 1867, Congress ceded more than 18,000 square miles of land from the Arizona Territory to the state of Nevada, giving Nevada access to the Colorado River. Part of the new southern region of Nevada is shown, excepting the southern-most tip. Also of interest is the addition of a red line indicating the line of the soon-to-be-completed trans-continental railroad. $140
W.H. Gamble. "County Map of Utah and Nevada." Philadelphia: S. Augustus Mitchell, Jr., 1872. 11 1/4 x 13 3/4. Lithography by W. H. Gamble. Original hand color. Very good condition. Denver.
Another updated version of Mitchell's map, this one just a few years after the completion of the trans-continental railroad, clearly shown running through the northern part of this region. This led to an increase in settlement and development in the region as is shown in the significant increase in settlement and roads on this map compared to the Mitchell map of just a few years before. $140
"County map of Utah, New Mexico, and Arizona." From Illustrated Historical Atlas of Fayette County, Ohio. Philadelphia: L.H. Everts & Co., 1875. 15 x 12. Lithograph. Original hand color. Binding holes at left. Else, very good condition. Denver.
A unusual map of the American Southwest. Utah, New Mexico and Arizona are shown with good detail and fully colored, which most of Colorado is shown topographically, but without the color. County atlases were very popular in the second part of the nineteenth century and publishers, such as L.H. Everts of Philadelphia, often included maps of different sections of the U.S. in order to increase the appeal of their publications. These regional maps tend to be quite rare, as is this interesting map. Detail is excellent, with topography graphically displayed, forts, towns, passes, roads, rivers, mines, railroads, and much else clearly presented. $150
"Utah." Philadelphia: O.W. Gray & Son, 1878. 15 x 12 3/4. Lithograph. Original color. Somewhat brittle. Else, very good condition. Denver.
A nicely detailed map of the state by the Philadelphia firm of O.W. Gray and Son. The firm began its publishing around mid-century and published regional and U.S. atlases up to the 1880s. This map of Utah showing the territory after it had acquired its present borders. The map is impressive in its topographical detail. Shows the myriad mountains and ridges, lakes, settlements, railroads, and each county is highlighted with a contrasting color. $150
S. Augustus Mitchell. "County and Township Map of Utah and Nevada." 1880. 14 1/4 x 21 5/8. Hand color. Very good condition.
A new map of Utah and Nevada from the S. Augustus Mitchell firm of Philadelphia. Rich in detail with much topographical information, the map also shows development of the plat system of surveying, just beginning in the new states west of the Mississippi River. Oddly, the map does not include all of the southern portion of Nevada below the 37th parallel. $95
"Utah." From Cram's Unrivaled Family Atlas. Chicago: George F. Cram, 1883. 12 1/8 x 9 1/2. Colored cerograph. Very good condition. Denver.
A detailed map of the territory of Utah in 1883. The map was produced by the George F. Cram Company, an engraving and publishing firm from Chicago. In the mid-nineteenth century, the center of cartographic publishing was New York City, but in the 1880s this began to shift towards Chicago with the advent of the Rand, McNally and Cram firms. These firms were noted for their efficient output of precise maps (using the process of wax engraving or cerography) filled with useful and up-to-date political and cultural information, and details on roads, towns, railroads, and so forth. This map is typical of their work and provides an excellent view of the territory, including roads, topography, deserts, Indian reservations and some mineral mines. $75
"County and Township Map of Utah and Nevada." Philadelphia: W.M. Bradley & Bros., 1886. 14 3/8 x 21 5/8. Hand color. Very good condition. Denver.
An updated version of the above Mitchell map, published by Bradley in 1886. This map shows new political boundaries in Utah with the introduction of new counties, and it includes an inset of the southern tip of Nevada at the bottom left of the main map. $85
"Utah." New York: Arbuckle Bros. Coffee Company, 1889. Ca. 3 x 5. Chromolithograph by Donaldson Brothers. Very good condition.
From a delightful series of maps issued by the Arbuckle Bros. Coffee Company. This firm was founded by John and Charles Arbuckle of Pittsburgh, PA. They developed a machine to weigh, fill, seal and label coffee in paper packages, which allowed them to become the largest importer and seller of coffee in the world. Their most famous promotional program involved the issuing of several series of small, colorful trading cards, one of which was included in every package of Arbuckle's Coffee. These series included cards with sports, food, historic scenes, and--one of the most popular--maps. The latter cards included not only a map, but also small illustrations "which portrays the peculiarities of the industry, scenery, etc." of the region depicted. These cards are a delight, containing informative maps as well as wonderful scenes of the area mapped. $60
"Utah." Chicago: Geo F. Cram, c. 1890. 12 1/8 x 9 3/4. Wax engraving. Very good condition.
A colorful, detailed map of Utah from the latter part of the nineteenth century. The George Cram Company was an engraving and publishing firm from Chicago. In the mid-nineteenth century, the center of cartographic publishing was New York City, but in the 1880's this began to shift towards Chicago with the advent of the Rand, McNally and Cram firms. These firms were noted for their efficient output of precise maps filled with useful and up-to-date details on roads, towns, railroads, and so forth. Decorative border as shown. Arizona shown on reverse. $65
[Utah]. From Rand McNally & Company's Indexed Atlas of the World. Chicago: Rand, McNally & Co., 1899. 19 x 25 3/4. Cerograph. Very good condition. Denver.
A late nineteenth century map from the early days of the Rand, McNally & Co. firm out of Chicago, a company that would shift the center of cartographic publishing from the east coast to the mid-west. Typical of the firm's work, this map has very good detail precisely and neatly exhibited. Topographic and social information, counties, roads, and many more details are neatly illustrated. Aesthetically and cartographically, it foreshadows the maps of the twentieth century. $125 On verso Nevada
"Utah." From Rand-McNally Indexed Atlas. Chicago: Rand, McNally & Co., 1909. 19 x 12 1/2. Cereograph. Printed with color. Very good condition. Denver.
This map is filled with detail, including counties, towns, railroads, roads, and much else. The map focuses on the railroads which by 1909 criss-crossed the state, the different lines indicated with red numbers referenced in a key at the lower left. $70

After a weekend of dry, sunny weather, a low pressure storm system will move into our area late tonight. This system will be very quick-moving, but will drop rain and snow. The timing of the heaviest rain with this system will be from around 8 p.m. Sunday to 5 a.m. Monday. Areas that will see the heaviest rain will be the South Coast and west-side Valleys. Post frontal showers are expected to hang around until around 3 p.m. on Monday.
A large pool of cold air will move in after frontal passage. Snow levels will start around 4,500′ Sunday night. The front is slated to push through around midnight. The snow levels will drop dramatically. The upper Siskiyous and the Basin will see snow levels of 3,300′. The Cascades will see a snow level of 3,000′. The remaining showers will turn to snow and snowfall rates could be 1″ an hour or more.
Winds will also be strong in the Basin and Cascades. A WIND ADVISORY is in effect until 5 a.m. for Eastern Klamath, Lake, and Modoc Counties. Sustained winds will range from 25-35 mph and gusts could get as high as 55mph. The combination of snow and wind will cause blowing snow and hazardous driving conditions. A WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY will go into effect Sunday at 9 p.m and last until Monday at 4 a.m. Elevations above 4,500′ will see snow accumulations from 3″ to 7." Driving conditions will be affected on roadways in these areas including:
- Hwy. 58 near Willamette Pass
- Hwy. 62 near Crater Lake
- Hwy. 66
- Hwy. 138 near Diamond Lake
- Hwy. 140 near Lake of the Woods
- Hwy 230
Winds along the coast will subside after frontal passage. The HIGH SURF ADVISORY will continue until 11 p.m. Sunday night. Rip currents and localized erosion will be the greatest hazard during high tide.
This system will move out of the area very quickly. All of the heaviest precipitation will end around 5 a.m. on Monday. After that, only light, isolated rain and snow showers will persist through the morning on Monday. All shower activity will diminish after 3 p.m. The clouds will start to clear out Monday night as high pressure builds back in to the area. Next week will see partly cloudy to mostly sunny skies. Temperatures will be around seasonal norm due to the cold air that will be ushered in on Monday.
Thanks for logging on and be safe out there!

In: Health & Fitness
8 Oct 2013People all over want to realize an elegant bronze glow that was only achieved by the sun or tanning beds previously. However, revolution in the industry has brought so much change. Such feats can be accomplished using tans from a bottle like Sun Labs Dark Sunsation lotion. Sun Labs Dark Sunsation can give you a perfect look. However, one has to follow some procedures while using in order to achieve this.
Sun Labs Dark Sunsation takes about twenty minutes to dry. During this period, you may not be able to sit down or have your clothes on. It is recommended that you walk around to give the skin enough air to dry. In other words, you should not have your clothes.
When using Sun Labs Dark Sunsation, you have to make sure that the tan is even on the whole body. Furthermore, you have to ensure that you apply Sun Labs Dark Sunsation in such a way that it will last for a long time. Therefore, consider using a bathroom that has steam. The steam maintains the pores open on your skin. When you consequently apply Sun Labs Dark Sunsation, it gets deep in the skin and spreads evenly.
Exfoliation is an essential procedure before applying Sun Labs Dark Sunsation. This is where you get rid of dead skin and reveal a new layer. This is done mostly by showering or using exfoliation detergents. The fresh skin will keep the tan for a long period of time before the body naturally replaces it. Applying Sun Labs Dark Sunsation without exfoliating can be devastating. The tan will not be non-uniform resulting into several patterns called streaks.
As you have noticed above, the trick with achieving a deep, long lasting even tan is to ensure Sun Labs Dark Sunsation seeps into the skin effortlessly. Hairs on your skin also form part of the difficulties. They should also be eliminated by shaving. Most people tend to disregard some of the procedures like this one. Overlooking will make you invest more in Sun Labs Dark Sunsation to achieve tan that is even.
Subsequently, start by moisturizing all the rough areas on your body like the elbows before you revert to the entire body. It is imperative that all rough sections of the body are made supple. These parts are likely to absorb too much of the Sun Labs Dark Sunsation and make your tan uneven. Alternatively, they may take in too little or no lotion at all. This is still undesirable by the standards of a perfect tan.
Using Sun Labs Dark Sunsation lotion requires that you use gloves. This saves the hustle of washing away the tan from palms. It is easier to begin from the legs and come up slowly make sure that each part is adequately applied. Lastly, come back to the feet, hands and then face. It is also good that you leave enough Sun Labs Dark Sunsation for the last body parts.
Finally, as you finish, remember that this process requires some time for Sun Labs Dark Sunsation to seep into the skin properly. Aeration is therefore very important. It also helps Sun Labs Dark Sunsation to dry quickly. Applying Sun Labs Dark Sunsation before bedtime gives it several hours to develop as you sleep.
To get the most beautiful tan with Sun Labs Dark Sunsation check out this link now. You will find a wide variety of great products when you go to Sunlab.Com today.

Gardening is in the fabric of everything I do, it allows me to be closer to nature. The property where I garden has been certified a Backyard Habitat with both the Canadian and National Wildlife Federations. The soil is sandy and the garden lies in a frost pocket, making it a Zone 4b(Canadian). I use a lot of Native Plants along with other drought tolerant cultivars.
Photography allows me to capture moments of time in the garden and beyond or at least I try to.
Quilting is a hobby that has carried on from of my Mom. She was a seamstress and I was always around a sewing machine, making clothes for my dolls when I was young, clothes for her or myself and then my own children.

Program History
ATP History
UW Oshkosh has enjoyed a rich history in athletic training. Jerry Nauert began his tenure in 1968 and was the first certified athletic trainer employed at the University. In 1977 an academic minor was established to provide students with the necessary background for pursuing BOC, Inc. certification according to internship guidelines. Mr. Nauert remained in the capacity of Head Athletic Trainer until 1990. Jeff Chambers was then hired to continue coordinating medical care to athletes. Under Jeff's leadership the involvement of students grew tremendously.
In 1997-98, the then Department of Kinesiology and Health made the decision to pursue what was then CAAHEP (Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs) accreditation and a UW System approved major. In 1998-99, a national search was conducted and Dr. Hal Strough was hired to coordinate accreditation efforts and direct the Athletic Training Education Program. Jeff Chambers resigned as Head Athletic Trainer at the conclusion of the 1998-99 academic year. Wade Peitersen, a student of Jeff's and graduate of the University, was hired as the new Head Athletic Trainer/Clinical Instructor/Lecturer beginning in fall 1999.
In 1999-2000 the faculty senate at the University approved a new academic program, which provided students with the opportunity to obtain a Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Arts degree; major in Physical Education with an emphasis in Athletic Training. An academic major in Athletic Training was approved by the UW System Board of Regents in October 2002 replacing the emphasis. The program was granted CAAHEP accreditation in April 2003. Accreditation transitioned to CAATE (Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education) in July 2006 and was renewed in 2009 for another 5-year cycle. A new facility in Kolf Sports Center, providing 6479 square feet of academic and clinical space, was completed in October 2003. The facility is well equipped with the latest in technology and rehabilitation equipment. In all, sixty-seven students have successfully completed the BOC, Inc. certification exam.
Wade Peitersen (Head Athletic Trainer/Clinical Instructor) has the longest tenures of current staff entering their tenth year in 2008-09. Jack Johnsen joined the staff in 2004-05 through a contract with Affinity Health Systems and Lyndsey Stier is now in her fourth year after joining the staff in 2005-06. Jennifer Zuberbier joined the staff in 2007-2008. On the education side, Dr. Robert Sipes is the current program director, coming to UW Oshkosh in the summer of 2009 and Kim Calvert joined the Athletic Training Program in 2008-2009 as the program's first clinical coordinator.

"Above Average"
Not the best looking small cigar. But OK draw and mild for a quick smoke.
Rob in Brasil April 20, 2013
"Love them"
I love these. They're just to expensive. If it were cheaper it would be my everyday cigar.
John in USA April 6, 2011
"Great cigar!"
Like the Arturo Fuente Cubanitos and the Cuesta Rey Centenario Cameo these are my cigars for the "in between smokes". Mild, great taste, no flavors like sweet wrapping, etc. Exactly as a cigar should taste. That is to say MY taste. As with wines, it all depends on the individual taste, on the time of the day and on the mood you are in. I think people should try various cigars within their basic taste and then build a library of their favorite cigars. I am doing that with wines and now with cigars.
Guus in Helena, MT July 1, 2009
"Where's the flavor?"
This is one ugly little cigar. veiny, creases, splotchy and what looks like ink on some of them. Zero complexity. May have tasted some hints of leather around the middle of the burn, but that's it.
Gil in North NJ September 5, 2008
"Am I missing something.?"
Am I missing something? I must have had a bad tin. Mine fell apart, were bitter and rated right up there with the moldy old White Owl I found in my grandfathers tool box that I smoked when I was 12. I haven't been that impressed with the Ashtons.
SteveM in Bucks County PA July 13, 2007
