text: BANNAN, John H. "Jack" Sr. John H. "Jack" Bannan, Sr., 89, of Simsbury, husband of the late Sarah Marie (Fitzgerald) Bannan, died Wednesday, (July 3, 2013) at McLean in Simsbury with family by his side. He was born Dec. 2, 1923 in New Britain, son of the late Michael W. and Anna (O'Connell) Bannan and had lived in New Britain prior to moving to Simsbury 54 years ago. Jack graduated from St. Thomas Seminary High School in Bloomfield. He was a U.S. Army veteran of World War II and a former Prisoner of War having been captured during the Battle of the Bulge. Jack was first assigned to the University of Alabama as part of the Army Specialized Training Program in engineering. He was subsequently assigned to Headquarters Company, 1st Battalion, 422nd Regiment, 106th Infantry Division, "the Golden Lions" serving in Europe. Jack was awarded the Combat Infantryman's Badge and the Prisoner of War Medal, amongst others during his army career. Jack earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration from UCONN in 1951. At UCONN he served as President of both the Associated Student Government and Student Senate. Jack received a Master of Education Degree in Elementary Administration in 1962 from the University of Hartford, followed by a 6th Year Certificate. Mr. Bannan was a sixth grade teacher in the Simsbury Public School System for 32 years prior to his retirement in 1989. Jack also served as President of the Connecticut State Federation of Teachers (now AFT CT), AFL-CIO, from 1967 through 1971. He was the first full-time president of the CSFT and the union grew by more than 20 locals under his leadership. Jack was also a Vice-President of the Greater Hartford Labor Council for many years. Mr. Bannan was active in Democratic politics on the state and local level, and was made a life member of the Simsbury Democratic Town Committee. In 1973, he was elected to the first of five terms on the Simsbury Board of Selectmen, choosing not to seek re-election to the board in 1983 to allow "someone with fresh ideas" to serve. He was a long time parishioner of St. Mary's Church, Simsbury, and was a long serving member of the Bishop John J. Nilan Council #2758 of the Knights of Columbus. Jack is a former Commander of the Simsbury Veterans of Foreign Wars Post and was a member of the American Legion and Disabled American Veterans. He was a 25-year member of the Simsbury Lions Club. He was presented with the Lions Clubs International Foundation's highest award, the Melvin Jones Fellowship, and recognized as a Knight of the Blind from the CT Lions Eye Research Foundation. Jack formerly belonged to Civitan. Jack volunteered for Meals on Wheels and at McLean Health Center for many years. Always a progressive thinker looking for ways to help people, when Automatic External Defibrillators (AED's) were proven to save lives, Jack led a fundraising drive, Heart Starters, to equip every Simsbury Police cruiser and Fire Truck with the new life-saving technology. He surpassed that goal allowing additional AEDs to be placed in public buildings. Jack was named a Simsbury "Home Town Hero" in 1987 to honor his service to the community. Having suffered from starvation while a P.O.W., in 1993 Jack founded the Farmington Valley Turkey Trot, collecting turkeys, all the fixings, and cash donations at Thanksgiving to benefit Foodshare so everyone would have a Thanksgiving dinner to enjoy. The Turkey Trot will celebrate its 21st year this November. Jack was the recipient of numerous awards from many civic, business, and labor organizations in recognition of his contributions to his community and state. He enjoyed politics, volunteering, spending time with family and laughter. He is survived by his three children: John H. "Jack" Bannan, Jr. and his wife Tracey of West Hartford, Edward G. "Ned" Bannan and his wife Maureen of Wrentham, MA and Marianne Bannan and her partner Ron Storms of West Suffield; a grandson, David A. Bannan; a sister, Elizabeth Malona of Bristol, and a brother, Michael W. Bannan, Jr. of Bristol, NH; and many nieces and nephews. Jack was also pre-deceased by his longtime companion and friend, Amelia "Mal" Savard. The Bannan family would like to express their great appreciation to the fantastic and caring staff at McLean Health Center, especially those on Skyview Terrace (Unit 4), as well as to the nurses and staff of McLean Hospice for their tireless, loving care. Friends may call at the Vincent Funeral Home, 880 Hopmeadow Street in Simsbury on TODAY, July 8 from 4-8 p.m. Funeral will be Tuesday, July 9, 9:15 a.m. from the funeral home followed by a Mass of Christian Burial, 10 a.m. at St. Mary's Church in Simsbury. Burial with military honors will follow in Simsbury Cemetery. Memorial donations may be made to Foodshare, 450 Woodland Ave., Bloomfield, CT 06002 or to Simsbury Lions Charities, Inc., P.O. Box 11, Simsbury, CT 06070. Please visit Jack's "Book of Memories" at www.vincentfuneralhome.com for online condolences.

US 8140249 B2 Abstract Method for encoding messages which are to be transmitted, method for decoding messages, and receiver for receiving and evaluating messages, in particular traffic messages, wherein the messages include message contents, and wherein a message contains at least one reference to an additional supplementary message which is to be transmitted separately and contains supplementary message contents.
Claims(2) 1. A method, comprising:
obtaining information about a plurality of traffic-related events from at least one source;
selecting, as a main traffic-related event, a traffic-related event having a highest priority among the plurality of traffic-related events;
encoding information about the main traffic-related event as a main traffic-related message;
for each remaining traffic-related event in the plurality of traffic-related events, encoding the remaining traffic-related event as a supplementary traffic-related message when one of the following conditions exists:
a local reference of the remaining traffic-related event is different from a local reference of the main traffic-related event; or
a source of information about the remaining traffic-related event is different from a source of the information about the main traffic-related event; and
transmitting each traffic-related message separately to a receiver device having a processing unit adapted to decode the traffic-related messages;
wherein each traffic-related message includes traffic-related message contents, and the main traffic-related message includes a reference to each supplementary traffic-related message.
2. The method according to
when none of the conditions exists for a particular remaining traffic-related event, encoding the remaining traffic-related event within a body of the main traffic-related message.
Description The present invention relates to a method for encoding messages, a method for decoding messages, and a receiver for receiving and evaluating messages. It is described in German Published Patent Application No. 35 36 820 and ISO 14819 that traffic messages in the form of digitally encoded messages plus radio programs may be broadcast over radio frequencies to describe traffic-relevant situations, in particular traffic disturbances in the highway system. These TMC (Traffic Message Channel) traffic messages include location information about the location of a traffic disturbance in an encoded form. ISO 14819 also describes so-called multisequence messages in which traffic information is transmitted in several groups of the RDS signal, but the several groups which include traffic information must always be transmitted in direct succession. German Published Patent Application No. 199 05 893 describes an expansion of traditional traffic messages according to the TMC standard. It is provided there that a supplementary location description, which is announced in a header preceding the actual message, is to be added to the standardized messages, which regularly contain a location code and thus a reference to a location of a traffic-relevant event. Thus, a location description is no longer limited merely to highway junctions, highway intersections and interchanges and the like and/or the sections in between that are encoded in the TMC location database but instead it allows a further description of the event location. A more accurate localization of an event location is also the subject of German Published Patent Application No. 100 15 935. It is proposed there that in addition to a section of road affected by a traffic disturbance, which may be defined by an adjacent location encoded in the TMC location database, a portion of a section or comparable linear parameters may also be transmitted, permitting a more accurate localization of the event location on the encoded section of road. The traffic situations to be transmitted via a traffic message may be simple or complex; for example, �10 km backed-up traffic� is a simple description of the situation and �10 km backed-up traffic, construction site, lane closure, average speed=20 km/h� is a complex description of the situation. Such complex situation descriptions may be described by so-called �multisequence messages,� i.e., multiple indexed successive individual messages in TMC (Traffic Message Channel, as specified in ISO 14819). One disadvantage here is that all the individual events of a complex situation description must always be based on the same location, i.e., the same section of road, so that the message may be displayed on the terminal as a complex situation description. Furthermore, all the events of a situation must be sent at the same point in time. Although updating is possible, all messages, including all the events they contain, must always be updated. It is impossible to append additional events to a message already sent. Expanded complex example: �Between Laatzen junction and Hildesheim junction 10 km backed-up traffic, construction site, lane closure, average speed=20 km/h.� The individual events of �backed-up traffic,� �construction site,� �lane closure,� and �average speed=20 km/h� must be based on the same location, namely in this case the same section of road between junctions. If the events overlap or if they are based on different neighboring locations, multiple separate messages must be transmitted. It is very complex to combine the messages at the terminal end to allow a compact presentation. It is also a disadvantage that it is impossible to correlate messages originating from different sources. In the future it may be expected that situation descriptions of differing content will be supplied by different sources. For example, traffic disturbances such as congestion or accidents are compiled by the police via the state reporting offices, while long-term status information such as construction sites or gridlock is supplied by third-party providers�possibly even as a paid service. Example: real situation: �10 km congestion and 5 km construction site.� It is assumed that the construction site will remain in existence for a longer period of time and the message will be transmitted regularly by provider X, e.g., a radio station. Congestion occurs spontaneously and is reported by a state reporting office for a relatively short period of time. With the digitally encoded TMC traffic messages currently being transmitted by radio, there is no possibility of connecting two individual messages to form one complex message. Drivers would like to have a compact display of the traffic situation, so they are able to more easily recognize the overall state of affairs and better estimate the on-site situation. For example, congestion would be combined with a subsequent construction site, so the driver would first be notified only of the event that is the most important for him instead of being notified of two independent individual events. Example embodiments of the present invention having the features described herein make it possible to characterize complex traffic situations whose individual events overlap or interlace at the same location or traffic situations that are in direct proximity to one another or traffic situations sent out by different providers or traffic situations that occur in separate locations and have a different relationship to one another, e.g., due to direct effects of a traffic disturbance on a subsequent disturbance, in such a way that they are recognized by the receiving terminal as belonging together and may be displayed in a compact manner. In this procedure, the terminal is able to determine exactly which particular messages must be received before a complete description of the traffic situation may be released to further processing components, e.g., display, voice, and/or route calculation of a driver information system. This makes it possible to avoid unnecessary route calculations or changing map and/or text displays of the messages. In addition, example embodiments of the present invention allow prioritization of individual events in processing, display, or announcement by the terminal. The present invention also allows a compact text display and map display of interlaced events by the terminal. Information to the user, in particular the driver of a vehicle, may be structured such that the most important event, in particular the one of multiple events having the most serious effect, e.g., on the traffic flow on a section of road, is displayed first and details are displayed only on further request. This avoids flooding of stimuli or information to the user. In the method according to example embodiments of the present invention for encoding messages to be transmitted, in particular traffic messages, where the messages include message contents, it is also provided that a message has at least one reference to an additional supplementary message to be transmitted separately, the additional supplementary message containing supplementary message contents. Separate here means that the message and the supplementary message(s) need not necessarily be sent directly in succession in the data stream and any interval in time may separate one from the other (within limits). Exemplary embodiments of the present invention are depicted in the figures and explained in greater detail below. The method according to example embodiments of the present invention for encoding messages is described by way of the example of traffic messages, i.e., messages about traffic disturbances or other traffic-relevant messages, e.g., via radio such as VHF radio or digital radio by a radio transmitter to a plurality of radio receivers. To describe such interlinked traffic events, they are encoded in a message format according to example embodiments of the present invention, as shown in A message according to example embodiments of the present invention, here a traffic message, initially includes a main message 31 (message 1), which has a message identification (ID) 311, here 123. This main message 31 includes the most important event (main event) 312 for the driver and/or his route, e.g., congestion, as the message content. In addition, the message may, if necessary, also include other so-called implicit events (subevent_1, reference numeral 313, subevent_2, reference numeral 314, . . . subevent_n, reference numeral 315), e.g., construction site, lane closure, etc., if they have the same local reference as main event 312. If the local reference of additional implicit events 313, 314, 315 is not the same or if there is detailed information from a provider other than the provider of the main message, then the main message may contain so-called �external� subevents 314, 315, reference being made to a special message 32, 33 containing additional information for each of these external subevents 314, 315. The reference to particular additional messages containing external subevents 314, 315 is made, for example, by giving their message IDs (link ID=124, reference numeral 317, link ID=125,reference 318). In addition, an element �source� (reference numeral 316) may also be provided, characterizing the provider of the message. Furthermore, a type designation (reference numeral 319) may also be provided, preferably for each event and/or subevent, indicating whether it is an event transmitted in main message 31 (type=internal) or whether it is an external event, i.e., an event transmitted in an additional supplementary message 32 or 33 (type=external). Finally, the message preferably also has a location description 320, in particular in the case of a traffic message, indicating to which location the transmitted traffic message refers. Additional messages, i.e., supplementary messages 32 and 33 to which reference is made by link IDs 317 and 318, also include a message identifier (ID=124, reference numeral 321; ID=12n, reference numeral 331). Additional messages 32 through 33 may optionally contain information about the cause (refer-type=cause, reference numerals 322 and 332) and may complete the complex state of affairs of the traffic situation. In addition, the additional messages may also include additional location descriptions 323 and 333 as well as a statement about the message supplier (source) 324 and 334. The location descriptions of the supplementary messages may describe the locations of the events contained in the supplementary messages and may thus replace and/or supplement the location descriptions of the main message. The message structure described here has the particular advantage that main message 31 already includes in approximate form the entire complexity of the state of affairs to be described. The receiving terminal thus knows how many messages must still be received to completely represent the state of affairs. It is assumed here that of the traffic-relevant events indicated, namely 15 km construction site (reference numeral 22), 10 km lane closure (reference numeral 23) and 10 km congestion (reference numeral 21), congestion 21 is the event having the most serious effect for a driver of a vehicle and/or a route calculation in a vehicle navigation system. Since congestion 21 and lane closure 23 have the same local reference, namely the beginning of the congestion and the beginning of the lane closure within construction site 22 coincide at same location 11, these two events are transmitted with message number (ID=123) 311 as main event 312 and secondary event (subevent_1) 313 in main message 31 ( The main message includes a characterization, i.e., description of the main event, namely here congestion for a distance of 10 km (reference numeral 312), the reference to the information provider, here provider X (reference numeral 314), and the location of the event (reference numeral 320), here, for example, the distance from the start of the congestion to junction A and/or to the two junctions themselves. In addition, main message 31 includes information about the internal subevent, namely lane closure 23, specifically its description 313 and the information that it is an �internal� subevent (entry �type=internal�). On the other hand, information about the additional subevent, namely construction site 22, is transmitted as an additional subevent (subevent_2) in additional message 32 because it has a different location reference, namely not the start of the lane closure but instead a point in front of that in the direction of travel on road section 10. In main message 31, a reference is made to additional message 32 in which information about the additional subevent, namely construction site 22, is transmitted, with a statement about the existence of this additional subevent_2 (reference numeral 314) by giving the message number (link ID=124, reference numeral 317). Furthermore, a reference is assigned to entry 314, indicating that the additional subevent is a so-called �external� subevent for which information is transmitted in a supplementary message. The supplementary message includes the additional information about the subevent, i.e., construction site 22. This includes a description of the subevent, i.e., traffic disturbance �construction site, 15 km� (325), the location of the event, i.e., here 3 km after junction A (323), indicating the information provider (324) plus message ID 124 (321). The encoding according to Consequently, the information about the lane closure here (in comparison with Additional supplementary message 33, like first supplementary message 32, then includes the additional information about the additional subevent, i.e., lane closure 23. This is a description of the subevent, i.e., the traffic disturbance �lane closure 10 km� (335), the location of the event, i.e., here the start of the lane closure (333), indicating the information provider, namely �Y� (334) here plus message ID 125 (331). In step 610, information about a plurality of traffic-related events are obtained from at least one data source. As previously discussed, messages may be supplied by different sources, including police and third-party providers. In step 612, a traffic-related event that has a highest priority among the plurality of traffic-related events is selected as a main traffic-related event. For example, as previously described, the main message can be the most important message for the driver and/or his route, e.g., congestion. In step 614, information about the main traffic-related event is encoded as a main traffic-related event, e.g., main message 31 in In step 616, it is determined for each remaining traffic-related event whether at least one of the following conditions is satisfied: (i) a local reference of the remaining traffic-related event is different from a local reference of the main traffic-related event ( If neither of the conditions is satisfied ( However, if at least one condition is satisfied ( In step 622, traffic-related message contents are included in each traffic-related message. For example, as previously described, the main message may include information about the main event as its message content. Additionally, a reference to each supplementary traffic-related message is included in the main message. For example, as previously described, the main message may include a message number of an external subevent along with an indication that the subevent is external. In step 624, each traffic-related message is transmitted separately to a receiver device having a processing unit adapted to decode the traffic-related messages, e.g., the receiver shown in The actual radio receiver, i.e., the receiver part, is labeled as 1; a preprocessing unit for traffic messages belonging together is labeled as 2 and is connected to receiving part 1, where the corresponding method for assembling individual submessages 31, 32 and, if necessary, additional messages to form a resulting overall message and relay it to block 3 is implemented. Block 3 contains a unit that further processes the content of the assembled messages, i.e., the resulting messages, e.g., a display or a navigation system having a route calculation component. An aspect according to example embodiments of the present invention relates to the characterization and preprocessing of assembled messages of complex traffic situations and complex display thereof in the terminal. After the messages have been combined in the terminal, the display may be in a compact graphic or text form. The display of the communication generated from the messages that have been encoded, received, and evaluated according to example embodiments of the present invention in the terminal might then appear as follows:
For the display on the terminal, the received messages encoded according to example embodiments of the present invention must first be decoded and combined to yield the resulting message. The required sequence is illustrated on the basis of a flow chart in The sequence begins in step 100 with tuning receiving part 1 to a radio transmitter, which transmits messages encoded according to example embodiments of the present invention, in particular traffic messages. In the present example, this is a VHF radio transmitter, for example, that transmits not only the radio program but also digitally encoded information via the radio data signal (RDS) according to DIN EN 50 067. Step 110 checks on whether received messages 31 contain references 317, 318 to supplementary messages 32, 33. If this is not the case, i.e., if no supplementary messages are transmitted for a received message, the content of received message 30 may be decoded immediately and sent for further processing 120 (block 3), i.e., displayed on a display screen or included in a route calculation for a navigation system 3. If received message 31 contains one or more references 317, 318 to supplementary messages 32, 33, then these are entered in step 130. Step 140 checks on whether all supplementary messages referenced have been entered. This check may be performed, e.g., by comparing referenced messages IDs 321, 331 of supplementary messages with references 317, 318 of the main message. If not all referenced supplementary messages have been entered, the sequence continues with further input of supplementary messages in step 130. If all referenced supplementary messages 32, 33 for main message 31 have been entered, then in step 150 a resulting message in a compact display is generated from the message contents of the main messages and the supplementary messages. In the case of the example of �Congestion for 10 km between junction A and junction B� The subevents are combined as an explanation of the supplementary message �because of 15 km construction site (�3 km after junction A�) and 10 km lane closure (�5 km after junction A�)� or �because of 15 km construction site (�3 km after junction A�) and 10 km lane closure (�2 km after start of construction site�)� which may be retrieved on special request by the user through a corresponding operator input, for example. The additions in parentheses may be reserved for output in a third concretization level or may already be output with the first detailing. An advantage of example embodiments of the present invention is also the fact that the location information for certain main events or subevents, for example, may be linked to resulting location information on the basis of the location information in the main message and supplementary messages. It is assumed that the location information transmitted in main message 31 as the location information for the congestion is 5 km after junction A. It is also assumed that the location information transmitted for the construction site in first supplementary message 32 is 3 km after junction A. Finally, it is assumed that the location information for the lane closure transmitted in second supplementary message 33 is 5 km after junction A. From these message contents, the receiver is able to assemble a resulting message in the approximate form �Congestion for 10 km between junction A and junction B� with the supplement �because of 15 km construction site, start of construction 3 km after junction A� And �Start of congestion 2 km after start of construction site.� In other words, from the individual information of the individual messages, resulting information, e.g., 2 km after the start of the construction site here, may be calculated or otherwise synthesized, facilitating an orientation for the user. This text information may be displayed on a display screen or output by voice output, in particular using a voice synthesizer system. According to a further example embodiment of the present invention, further input of referenced supplementary messages may be terminated if a predetermined period of time for input of supplementary messages is exceeded. This ensures that messages will in any case be output promptly after receipt of the corresponding messages. Patent Citations

I have this hanging over my nine foot dining room table and it is just the right size, not too small and not overwhelming. As another review stated the ring that you hang the crystals on is a little off, so you have to move the strands around to make it work. I also added some larger square crystals on every third strand which helps to make it look more balanced. I replaced all of the wires used to attach the crystals and added silver bow tie connectors. The crystals may not be 35% lead but they are not plastic as someone stated.
The chandelier is hanging over our stairway/hallway upstairs. It's very nice, even though the crystals are plastic, you can't tell. One review said the crystals were already attached to the chandelier but unfortunately mine wasn't and it was hard putting them on, my nails paid a price for it and you can't wear gloves cuz the holes are small. Description should definitely say you need to put the crystals on yourself! There's no description showing you how to install it, but my husband managed. I would recommend this if you're looking for something contemporary.
this light was the perfect solution for over our kitchen table. i wanted a chandalier with a shade, my husband a pendant style fixture. this was the perfect compromise. i love the open feel it gives to our space, the cystals look beautiful and are easy enough to attach. everyone who sees it loves it. it also throws a great shadow onto the ceiling. we put it on a dimmer so it has great versatility. i am very pleased with this purchase and would definately recommend.
Beautiful Chandelier. I have it in my master bedroom sitting area. I did not use the rod extensions & mounted flush to ceiling. Only surprise was the beads were plastic. (Once installed you could not tell they were plastic though). Good purchase
Very happy with the chandelier. Does not look cheap. Love the rustic and traditional look of the chandelier. It was packaged very well. Instructions were vague like the other instructions I have received from overstock.com. I have learned to decipher them. I took the recommendation from other reviewers to control the tilt effect/look of the crystal strings by 1) moving the crystal strings from one side to the other to balance the weight; and 2) adding an additional crystal to the bottom to some of the crystal strings, but the tilt was still too visible for me. My DH was able to reduce the tilt by moving the inside circle around. Two days after installation (in our dining room), I decided to shorten the crystal strings to the length of the cage bottom � like it MUCH better. To me, this made it look cleaner/sharper. Also, we don't notice the tilt effect/look any more at this height � it may be an optical illusion but works for us.
I have had this for more than a year and am very happy with it. I get lots of compliments on it. The "crystals" were a bit of a pain to hang at first, but not too bad. The "crystals" also are plastic, so don't expect real glass. But, when hanging, it looks nice.
Pretty light - yet I thought it was bigger and it is too small for a hallway (even a small hallway) . LIke the crystal inside. Bought it for a hallway but it is more for over an island or in a bathroom. Will keep it anyway as I am trying to find a place for it.
haven't put it up yet , not sure of where i want it to go butt its sooo sexy
We bought two of them and then installed them side by side over the dining room table. It created a whole new ambiance. A great buy!!!!
Beautiful in entry hall. Fabulous focal point when entering a room. Modern and classy. Excellent price.

I dunno about that one... The only thing that throws it for me is I just don't think a woman that small in flip flops could shift the bike, hell it wore holes in the toes of my regular shoes when I had a bike for 6 months. Sexxy though. My guess is he had her hop on the bike for a pic or something, why the weird angle?
Yeah, there is no helmet law in PA. Regardless of it, I would still wear it. Even a 5-10mph fall might result in permanent brain damage or death. I recall reading a story where people were protesting against changing the no helmet law and one of them actually died...FROM A HEAD INJURY cause he wasn't wearing a helmet.

Oklahoma is a healthy state for business. We have consistently met trials and challenges and overcome. Entrepreneurship is in our DNA. We've come out of every obstacle stronger and more resilient, building a state that is a destination for businesses and families. Just as it was prior to statehood, many now look to Oklahoma as the land of opportunity. The goal of public officials should continue to be to make Oklahoma an entrepreneurial heaven on earth.
As Oklahoma's Lt. Governor and Small Business Advocate, I have traveled the state and nation focusing on job retention and job recruitment. Oklahoma has so much to offer. Yet even with our knowledge, skill and opportunity to be competitive in economic development, there are still challenges we must address.
In working to overcome these obstacles, I hosted a series of Small Business & Small Manufacturer Regional Summits, partnering with the State Chamber and the Oklahoma Manufacturing Alliance. A total of six regional summits, each unique and beneficial, were held in various communities across the state: Enid, Tulsa, Durant, Lawton, Bartlesville and Oklahoma City. Each summit included discussions that identified key issues that impact manufacturers and businesses in general. These discussions were then followed by a solution-orientated dialogue on issues such as workforce development, health care, workers' compensation reform, and specific regional items. The ideas and solutions offered at these summits will result in a legislative agenda that will be included in my 2013 Policy Report.
These summits were an instrumental, constructive next step to my previous travels and town halls across the state, providing opportunities to visit directly with Oklahoma's businesses and manufacturers. Their thoughts and ideas for improvement were invaluable because they work on a daily basis to grow business and move Oklahoma forward.
As always, my office is open and ready to assist you in any way we can. I am excited to hear your ideas on how we can increase economic development across the state.

Rangeley streamers make for a wonderful combination of craft and art. As functional as they are beautiful, they are starting to get more attention among fly tyers and anglers. This sample of a Grizzly Prince was inspired by some flies sent to me in a swap by my friend Lindsey Grandison. I find the combination of colors and materials particularly attractive.
Grizzly Prince
Our resident streamer guru Bob Skehan is a big fan of this flatwing style streamer, the Wood Special. It's a killer brook trout pattern, both in ponds and streams.
Wood Special
George, Sorry for the confusion here - this page was titled Prince Nymph by mistake. It's about streamers. We have a lot about the Prince Nymph here and here. Martin

Derivative applications
Minima, maxima, and critical points. Rates of change. Optimization. L'Hopital's rule. Mean value theorem.
All content in "Derivative applications"
Equations of normal and tangent lines
A derivative at a point in a curve can be viewed as the slope of the line tangent to that curve at that point. Given this, the natural next question is what the equation of that tangent line is. In this tutorial, we'll not only find equations of tangent lines, but normal ones as well!
Motion along a line
Derivatives can be used to calculate instantaneous rates of change. The rate of change of position with respect to time is velocity and the rate of change of velocity with respect to time is acceleration. Using these ideas, we'll be able to analyze one-dimensional particle movement given position as a function of time.
Critical points and graphing with calculus
Can calculus be used to figure out when a function takes on a local or global maximum value? Absolutely. Not only that, but derivatives and second derivatives can also help us understand the shape of the function (whether they are concave upward or downward).
If you have a basic conceptual understanding of derivatives, then you can start applying that knowledge here to identify critical points, extrema, inflections points and even to graph functions.
Optimization with calculus
Using calculus to solve optimization problems
Applying differentiation in different fields
The idea of a derivative being the instantaneous rate of change is useful when studying or thinking about phenomena in a whole range of fields. In this tutorial, we begin to just scratch the surface as we apply derivatives in fields as disperse as biology and economics.
Related rates
Have you ever wondered how fast the area of a ripple of a pond is increasing based on how fast the ripple is? What about how fast a volcano's volume is increasing? This tutorial on related rates will satiate your curiosity and then some!
Solving related rates problems using calculus
Mean value theorem
If over the last hour on the highway, you averaged 60 miles per hour, then you must have been going exactly 60 miles per hour at some point. This is the gist of the mean value theorem (which generalizes the idea for any continuous, differentiable function).
L'Hôpital's rule
Limits have done their part helping to find derivatives. Now, under the guidance of l'Hôpital's rule, derivatives are looking to show their gratitude by helping to find limits. Ever try to evaluate a function at a point and get 0/0 or infinity/infinity? Well, that's a big clue that l'Hopital's rule can help you find the limit of the function at that point.
Local linearization
Let's see how we can local linearization can be used to approximate values of functions near values that we know.

I'd really like to fit some 285's/70/17's. I dont do much off roading and I dont really plan too. Most I'd like to do is a trail or so, but I mostly baby my truck as its my daily driver. I'd really like to have a 3' lift. Could I do this with Billstein 5100's all around, lifting them as much as they can, and would I need UCA's since its a 3' lift? Or would this (http://toyteclifts.com/index.php?pag...mart&Itemid=72) be a better idea?
Would I need trim packers for either?
All help appreciated.

Linen Big Brim Hat
Functional and Stylish
I absolutely love this hat. I bought it last year in white, took it to Kauai for a week where it got pretty dirty (because it's so functional and went everywhere with me). I made the mistake of trying to wash it in the sink instead of just spot-cleaning it, and I ruined it. It just never went back to it's original shape. So I bought it again this year and this time in the linen color. Besides being packable/crushable, I also like how big it is. I have long, thick hair and don't like getting a ring around my head from a hat - so I prefer them to feel loose on my head. This one is perfect. The brim stays in place well so you can adjust up or down as you need it. My husband also liked how he could tell where I was on the beach while he was swimming in the waves - because he could easily spot my cute hat!
September 9, 2014
Perfect Coverage
I LOVE this hat! I've been looking for a while and am so glad I came across this one. The linen color goes with everything. It is comfortable and adjustable so it will fit snuggly on windy occasions. Brim is perfect size to cover face completely and brim can be worn down for additional coverage when sitting and reading but really needs to be rolled up when walking or it's harder to see. I wear it every day when walking my dogs at the beach. I get tons of compliments as the style is attractive and so functional. I have not tried to clean it yet but haven't really needed to. Give it a try, I think you'll be glad you did!

Great protection from the sun
This hat will shade your face completely from the sun. Nice adjustable ties too!
September 22, 2013
Would have liked it
I was at the Thousand Oaks store and was debating over 2 different styles. The clerk recommended this one because of the SPF protection and that I could put it in the washer. Her saying this finalized my decision quickly as I was planning on putting this hat through good use and loved the idea of being able to wash it. After only having this hat for a couple of weeks it is now ruined. It has lost all shape and looks like a $5 hat now, rather than $60. I am very disappointed that she gave such erroneous statements and want to return it but don't want to drive 30 miles out of my way to return it when it would have been fine if she had not told me it was okay to wash.
August 6, 2013
This hat provided the exact amount of sun protection that I was hoping for.
This hat is light, doesn't make my head sweat, but provides protection from the sun for my head. It's also stylish and I can wear it with anything.
July 9, 2013
fell apart
I purchased this about a month and a half ago and have used it only a handful of times. One of the seams has completely come undone, leaving a gaping hole. This was my first purchase from this brand, and I thought for the price that the quality would have been much better. Needless to say, I am very disappointed. It was purchased on vacation, so I can't even take it back to the retail store.
July 7, 2013
Love it!!!!
Love the color and the brim shape adjusts really well.
July 5, 2013
My lovely hat!!!
This hat is super cute and comfortable.Good quality,great color and well done in the details.I got many compliments on it and it fit nicely.It has an inside cord for adjusting.Folded nicely into my lugguage which was a big plus.

Vectren Issues Winter Heating Season Safety RemindersNow that winter weather is here, Vectren reminds you that you need to think about heating safety throughout the winter months. Officials say in order to be safe, you should have your furnace tuned-up by a professional, know how to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning and detect a gas leak and be aware of the safety precautions associated with the use of space heaters. There are just some simple ways to keep your household safe throughout the year. They also say you need to make sure that your furnace, space heaters and fireplaces are properly ventilated and the batteries in your smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors are in good working order. You should also consider safety precautions associated with home heating, the use of natural gas and the use of electric space heaters. Furthermore, don't forget to change the batteries in smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors throughout the home on an annual basis. Space Heater Safety According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) supplemental heating equipment, such as electrical and kerosene heaters, is the leading cause of home fires during the months of December, January and February. To help prevent fires and carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning from the use of space heaters, adhere to the following tips as recommended by the NFPA. · Install and use appliances according to the manufacturer's instructions. · Consider using space heaters with automatic shut-off capabilities. · Never use unvented gas or kerosene heaters in closed spaces, especially sleeping areas. · Don't use gas appliances such as an oven, range or clothes dryer to heat the home. · Leave a window cracked about an inch for ventilation and fresh air. Ventilation is important to keep fuel-burning space heaters from consuming too much oxygen in the house. · Do not leave a space heater on when you are not in the room or when you go to sleep and keep small children away from the unit at all times. · Electric space heaters should be checked for signs of fraying or splitting wires or overheating. Likewise, electric space heaters frequently cause fires by overloading electrical outlets. · Keep space heaters away from combustible materials/products. · When selecting a space heater, look for one that has been tested and certified by a nationally recognized testing laboratory. These heaters have been determined to meet specific safety standards, and manufacturers are required to provide important use and care information to the consumer. Carbon Monoxide Safety Carbon monoxide (CO) is a toxic gas produced by the incomplete burning of different fuels including gasoline, kerosene, wood, coal, propane, natural gas and fuel oil. High concentrations of CO can cause illness and excessive levels can be fatal. If you suspect CO in your home, get fresh air immediately and call 911. To prevent CO in your home: · Make sure all appliances are properly installed and maintained and have a heating professional clean and check your heating and venting system every year. · Check vents, flue pipes and chimneys for corrosion or blockage. · Never run a vehicle or fuel-burning equipment in an enclosed place. · Install at least one CO detector near sleeping areas to add an extra measure of safety. If you smell natural gas In the event a gas line has been struck or ruptured outside of a home or business, residents are reminded of the following: · Leave the area of the gas leak, as well as areas where the odor of gas is noticeable, immediately. · Do not attempt to re-start or move powered equipment. · Call Vectren at 1-800-227-1376 from somewhere other than the location of the gas leak. The party responsible for the damage to the gas line should also call 911 and report the incident to police and/or fire officials. · Alert neighboring property owners of the potential leak. · Remain in a safe area until emergency personnel arrive and do not enter the home/business o neighboring premises. In the event a gas leak is detected inside of a home or business, residents are reminded of the following: · Leave the home or business of the gas leak, as well as areas where the odor of gas is noticeable, immediately. · Do not use the phone or a cell phone while in the building. If you notice the leak while talking on the phone, do not hang up. · Do not turn any lights, appliances or any electrical sources on or off. · Do not light matches. · Do not open or close windows. · Do not start a vehicle if it's parked in a garage that's attached to the home/business of the suspected leak nor utilize an automatic garage door opener upon exiting. · The activities listed above could trigger an ignition if gas has significantly accumulated. · Call Vectren at 1-800-227-1376 from somewhere other than the location of the gas leak. · Alert neighboring property owners of the potential leak. · Remain in a safe area until emergency personnel arrive and do not re-enter the premises. Officials say there is no charge to the customer for calling Vectren to inspect a potential gas leak. Vectren will respond 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

The season is beginning to find its end. It is a time that we usually reflect on what has occurred and a time where we joyfully anticipate the upcoming playoff battles. This time of the year always has a few major questions though. The question that continues to plague me; however, is the one that so many hockey writers continue to write about. Does Sidney Crosby still deserve the Hart Trophy after missing so many games with a fractured jaw?
It is a question that I am entirely sick of, to be completely honest. Mostly because the answer is yes and just about everyone knows this, but I highly doubt that hockey writers have to continue to post article after article on why he is s...
Five different Blackhawks players scored, including Andrew Shaw with the game-winner, in a 5-2 Chicago victory over the Dallas Stars Monday night.
The Blackhawks (33-5-4) win was their third over Dallas (21-18-3) this year, sweeping the season series. The win was also Chicago's sixth straight and moved them 11 points ahead of the idle Anaheim Ducks for the top spot in the Western Conference.
While Chicago was cementing its playoff position, Dallas was left wanting. The loss kept the Stars two points back of Detroit for the eighth playoff spot in the West, each team with just six games remaining. Columbus also sits two points ahead of Dallas, albeit with only...
The Central Division Champion Chicago Blackhawks are well settled into the top seed in Western Conference with a 9 point lead and game in hand over the Anaheim Ducks, but the Dallas Stars are far from through with their push for the playoffs.

CHI @ NSH04/06/20132:00pm CST
The league leading Chicago Blackhawks (27-5-4) visit their Central Division rival Nashville Predators (15-15-8) in the front end of a home and home series today at 2pm CST.
Nashville, winners in just one of their previous five, are four points out of the
final playoff spot in the West with just ten games remaining and will likely end the season on the outside looking in. While four points in ten games is certainly not an insurmountable deficit, the shortened season's intraconference schedule makes it extremely probable that the Predators will only be playing spoiler down the stretch this year.

CHI v STL - Game Preview
Marian Hossa is back in the Chicago Blackhawks lineup for Thursday night's matchup against the St. Louis Blues.
The Blackhawks earned a win in the shootout Monday, and in the process, gave a point to Nashville. The Predators now sit just two points out of a playoff berth with 12 games remaining in their regular season schedule - three more of which will be against Chicago.During the first and second periods, Chicago dominated most of the play, outshooting Nashville 27-11.It was reflected on the score sheet as well. Brandon Saad put in the Blackhawks on the board with just 12 seconds left in the first period. Patrick Kane made it 2-0 with 7:50 left in the second.
In the third, however, the Blackhawks did what they've done a few too many times lately: instead of putt...

The Chicago Blackhawks head home to Madison Street as they face off against the Nashville Predators. This will be one of three meetings the teams will have this week.
The Blackhawks are coming off of a 7-1 drubbing of the Detroit Red Wings. The strength of the minor league system was on full display. Jeremy Morin and Brandon Saad made key contributions in yesterday's win.
The Predators are led by defensemen Shea Weber, Roman Josi and forward Martin Erat. The Blackhawks continue to get strong play from Patrick Kane, Jonathan Toews and Saad.

The Chicago Blackhawks ended their two game losing streak by shutting out the Calgary Flames last night 2-0. Nick Leddy and Brent Seabrook each scored for the Blackhawks.
An added storyline to last night's game was the trade speculation surrounding Flames Right Winger Jarome Iginla. Recently, Iginla submitted a list of four teams he would not block a trade to. The Blackhawks are on that list. Even though Iginla's numbers are down, he can add veteran leadership to any of teams he is traded to.
Blackhawks netminder Ray Emery continued his strong play against the Flames by making 16 stops. Emery's personal win streak now stands...
There is no better time to be thankful that all the armchair GMs aren't real GMs than directly after a tough loss right before the trade deadline.Monday night on Twitter, as the Blackhawks walked out of a lackluster game with a 5-4 loss to the LA Kings, whom they had previously dominated earlier in the season, all the usual suggestions came out. So-and-so should go back to Rockford. So-and-so is dead weight this season and should be traded. (If he's such dead weight, who else is going to want him?) So-and-so isn't getting it done. In exchange, fans are looking for every high-profile player out there, future salary concerns be ignored.

1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 (4.5 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained
1 pound ground beef
Great burger but I used fresh mushrooms not canned. Saute the mushrooms with the garlic, cool and mix into the burger. It would hold together without the egg, so I would omit the egg next time.
I thought this was okay. It didn't taste bad, just didn't really have any flavor. I used lean beef and mine were very dry, also, so I would not use a lower fat beef. I also broiled them as I do with many grilled recipes in the winter. I thought the egg would help with moisture, but it didn't. It slightly reminded me more of a meatloaf. So, to improve on the flavor I topped them with a bbq ketchup type sauce, and heated them briefly, and it made them taste better. Not a repeat recipe, but it made for a filling dinner tonight anyhow.

For the eighth year, the artistic talents of more than 100 students was put on display at the Linden Street School, decorated for all to see July 31. The annual event was put on by the District Reading and Math Program (RAMP), a summer program which puts an emphasis on art as well.
Program Coordinator Philip Sanders said participants for the program are chosen based upon assessments given throughout the year to see how they have measured up in reading and math.
"We are mainly focused on students retaining what they have learned during the previous school year," Sanders stated. "We refer to it as avoiding the summer slide. We hope to keep their skills sharp so they can start the new year off on the run."
One-hundred ten students participated this summer, Sanders said. "We incorporate reading, math, and art," he explained, pointing out that every class has 30 minutes of art each day.
Many of these young Picasso's found out just how much they enjoy being creative.
"I worked really hard at my Starry Night mural. It involved the whole school," student Jacob Keen said. "I like how you can sketch your feelings in art."
Elayna Fontanez did a butterfly painting using blue and purple as two of the colors. She gets her artistic motivations from what she sees on the big screen.
"I watch movies and I try to copy what (the animators) draw," Elayna said. "My favorite movie is Aladdin, and I have tried to copy from it."
Art teacher Jessica Ryan, a graduate of Southern Connecticut State University, worked with the young artists.
"I love children, I lived with my cousin who had six kids, and I became like a nanny to them," she said.
Ryan helped the students with Starry Night by drawing the format. But the piece only became whole after the youngsters got involved.
"The kids really got into it," the teacher said.

Replace appliance bulb Shirley T. • Lancaster, CA • June 12, 2014 Appliance: Model MH1150XMQ0-3 My Repair & Advice Fortunately, appliance parts always have what I need to replace older and newer model parts.

This wasn't quite what we meant when we said we were dreaming of a white Christmas. Not to be outdone by Chuck Lorre, the Kardashian family has released their annual holiday card, which takes on a far more joyful tune than previous years, despite the presence of dearly departed kitten, Mercy. But since we can't ever expect any, er, mercy from the Kardashians' omnipresence, we'll accept their holiday greetings — but only if they answer the following questions:
1. Let's address the elephant in the room — or, rather, the cat: Was this picture taken prior to Mercy's passing? Or have taxidermy animals become the new Hollywood lap dog? If so, can TLC make a show about it?
2. The other elephant not in the room: We see Kris Jenner, Bruce Jenner, Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, Rob Kardashian, Scott Disick, Mason Disick, Penelope Disick, Lamar Odom, Kris Jenner, and Kendall Jenner, but where's André Kanye?
3. Why is Scott Disick the family focal point? And when will the Kardashians break the news to him that this is not a J. Crew ad?
4. Don't the Kardashians know that scarecrows should be saved for the family Halloween card?
5. Why can't I look away?

I like the face studies the dog/wolf and sir stubby. You're really good at doing the hair...I always fail at that. Is there any way you can rotate them so I don't have to tilt my head. sir stubby is cool. Are you planning on doing anything with him? The coloring isn't bad. I imagine it's supposed to be cartoony so it makes sense for the coloring to be simplistic like it is.
Fixed. Hair is easy if you render first. Basically takes care of like 75% of the work and becomes easycake after that. Meh, need to learn PS and other coloring programs, it's not so much the simplistic coloring as it is the poor job of coloring. xD I want to animate the full story thing I've got with Sir Stubby, which is currently under production as well as a few other projects.

US research signals warning over employee health and wellbeing
Shift workers getting too little sleep at the wrong times of day could face a higher risk of developing diabetes and becoming obese, according to a scientific study.
Researchers said that changes to normal sleep patterns mean the body can struggle to control sugar levels.
As a result, shift working could have serious implications for employee health and wellbeing, the researchers said.
Doctors at Brigham and Women's Hospital, in the US, were trying to study the effect of shift working in a controlled environment.
Twenty one participants in the study started with 10 hours' sleep at night. This was followed by three weeks of disruption to their sleep and body clocks.
During this part of the study, sugar levels in the blood were "significantly increased" immediately after a meal and during "fasting" parts of the day.
Some participants even developed early symptoms of diabetes within weeks.
The research group called for more efforts to reduce the health impact of shift working.
The results are published in Science Translational Medicine.

Activities and attractions in Vero Beach Atlantic Coast Central
Swimming, fishing, boating, surfing, scuba or sky diving are only a few of the recreational opportunities available to you in Indian River County. There are 19 private and public golf courses convenient to every community. Like tennis? There are numerous public tennis courts through out the county as well as private tennis clubs and housing developments built around tennis. Need More? Try our hiking and biking trails, riverside camping and seaside picnic facilities all available to you year-round.
You will never be stuck for a place to eat in Indian River County. The Vero Beach dining experience can be found beachside as well as on the river and mainland. Travel north or south along Hwy A1A to reach other well known eateries including the two restaurants located in the Disney Resort.
Travel over the bridge to dine at one of the many restaurants on Royal Palm Pointe or visit the Historic Downtown area for a variety of cuisines. All along US Hwy 1 as well as Rt. 60 you can find most any type of eating establishment that will please the whole family.
Shopping in Indian River County is truly an exhilarating experience. From its charming independently owned shops along the beaches and mainland to the quaint shops in Sebastian's fishing village environment. Historic Downtown Vero Beach is home to many fine shops and eating establishments while Route 60 west to I-95 is where you can find the larger malls and shopping centers.
Free from the overcrowding found in other tourist communities, Vero Beach, Sebastian and Indian River County are indeed a shoppers dream.
Water is the main attraction in Indian River County and the catalyst for two of its biggest sports: boating and fishing.
Charters, Rentals
The miles of calm waters, protected from the Atlantic Ocean by the barrier islands, provide residents and tourists with many types of boating opportunities. If you don't own a boat, deep sea fishing boats can be chartered along the Indian River County coastline. Leisure cruises operate out of both Vero Beach and Sebastian. And for those who like airboating, Stick Marsh in the northwest corner of Indian River County provides just the opportunity. Canoes and kayaks can also be rented from various places including areas around the Sebastian Inlet Park.
If you have a boat and it is not moored at a marina, there are places in Indian River County that provide free launching ramps and parking spaces:
Riverside Park, MacWilliam Park, East Oslo Road, Round Island Park, Sebastian Yacht Club on Indian River Drive, Dale Wimbrow Park, Donald MacDonald Park, Wabasso Causeway, Fellsmere Grade, Blue Cypress Lake (Route 60 west of Vero Beach), and St. Johns Marsh - Barney Green (CR 512 west to Fellsmere).
If you are new to boating and have not launched a boat before, the State of Florida Fish & Wildlife Commission/Boating has put together tips on boat launching and other safety information.
The waters off Vero Beach and all of Indian River County provide year-round enjoyment for people of all ages. For saltwater fishing, besides the deeper, offshore waters, Sebastian Inlet is a premier location. Boaters can cruise the shallow waters or anchor near the jetties where grouper, snapper, and king mackerel abound. Further out, dolphin, wahoo, tuna and marlin keep fishermen busy. To try your hand at Offshore Fishing.
For those without boats, the Sebastian Inlet Park has two jetties reaching into the Atlantic. Surf fishing and walking along the miles of shoreline also provide great recreation.
Fresh Water
Inland lakes and the Sebastian River produce large mouth bass, black crappie, bluegills, and other gamefish. The best locations are Blue Cypress Lake which covers 6,554 acres at the western end of Indian River County--about 25 miles from Vero Beach on Route 60. The Stick Marsh a 6,500 acre reservoir in the northwest corner of Indian River County which has been named one of the Top Ten Black Bass Lakes in Florida by the Florida State Game Commission; and anywhere along the St. Sebastian River.
Surfing and Skim Boarding
Three miles of Atlantic beach offer some of the best surfing on the East Coast. One of the most consistent surf breaks in Florida is Sebastian Inlet's first peak, located next to the north jetty. Another hot surf spot is Monster Hole--located about 1/3 mile off the beach, on the south side of Sebastian Inlet. The contour of the ocean floor rises up and when the surf is big, the waves form long lines, giving a long ride. Sebastian Inlet
Diving & Snorkeling
Vero Beach and Indian River County have some of the most unique places to dive.
Diving & Snorkeling
Great diving sites extend from the Sebastian Inlet to Round Island, including coral and artificial reefs and the site of the 1715 wreck of the Spanish galleon in the south end of Vero Beach.
Artificial Reefs
There are four artificial reefs along the beaches of Indian River County, about 200-300 feet off shore. The first, deployed in 1987 by FP&L, is located along the south beach of Vero Beach at a depth of 38 f
