Is this plate old or a fake
chemisesJuly 20, 2014
Hi there,
My first post here.
I have just grab this plate at a flea market in the UK.
Could you tell me what it is and if it is not fake.
My guess is that it is a roman plate and that it is authentic... But i am not an expert.
My guess is that it's an old pottery pie plate that's been badly treated, perhaps by being used under a potted plant.
That red color body with cream decorations is quite common because it's natural clay colors.
Maybe you can also help me with silver: http://www.silver-collector.com/topic4440.html
If you need I can help with French / Art Deco stuff...

Zinnia trouble
Hi there!
I live in NJ close to the Hudson. I am growing zinnias and they seemed to be doing well, except that the leaves are wilting. I am not sure if it is due to over-watering or sweltering temperatures or due to come other reason.
Kindly take a look at the photo below. I hope you all are enjoying summer gardening!
looks like they need more water...touch the soil with your finger if you are not sure..if it is too dry it needs more water...
also..if the leaves are turning yellow, it means over-watering.
if they start to turn brown(dry)at the tips, they need more water.
zinnias need plenty of sunlight, heat and regular watering..I live in NJ, I plant them every year and they bless me with a blast of blooms.. :) good luck!
Is this plant on a terrace? I see a lot of brick and concrete. Keep in.mind, official temps are recorded off the ground, in the shade--around here, those temps have been quite hot (upper 90's), they can get much hotter on a terrace without a lot of other plants or evaporation. Plus, you have to deal with wind. I know because I used to have to garden on a terrace. It's a challenge!

Briliant. We stayed at Donato and Rita's apartment for couple nights and left only with a good memories! Apartment is as per pictures - clean, with a nice panoramic views, easy to find. Even though we were late to check in for about an hour key-holder was waiting to let us in. We would definately recommend Donato and Rita's apartment without hesitation.
I spent 10 days in this apartment and I cannot still believe how lucky I was.
Views are indeed the best in Sienna and sometimes I really believed I was in a dream, not a flat. Apart from that. flat is small but very comfortable and I have been very, very happy living there. Unfortunately I was not able to meet Rita but Donato was very kind and nice when we met. I could not imagine staying in another flat in Sienna when I return, which I hope to do in future. In summary, I am sure IT IS THE BEST APARTMENT in Sienna!!!!!
Very nice, small appartment in the middle of the old town, amazing view! Consider that you cannot reach the appartment by car, because of pedestrian zones!
Magnifique séjour dans un appartement très agréable ! La vue est unique, en plein cœur de la ville, le matin comme le soir, c'est un enchantement !
Pour ceux qui pourraient redouter le canapé lit, pas d'inquiétude, le lit est tout à fait correct...
C'est l'endroit où il faut habiter si vous voulez profiter de Sienne !
Donato (vi accoglierà lui in città) è un ingegnere meccanico appassionato di musica, arte e vela.
Rita (che si occupa di tenere i contatti su internet) insegna, le piacciono i viaggi e l'arte.
Siamo sposati ed abbiamo due bellissimi bambini
Siamo certi che Siena non vi deluderà, perchè è una città magica, che ha tanto da offrire sotto ogni aspetto, e noi saremo lieti di ospitarvi e di farvela conoscere se vorrete!
Donato (he will welcome you in the city) is a mechanical engineer who loves music, art and sailing.
Rita (who is responsible for maintaining contacts on the internet) teaches children, she likes traveling and art.
We're married and we have a beautiful baby boy.
We are confident that you will really love Siena, because it is a magic city that has very much to offer, and we will be happy to welcome you and make you know if you want!

Looking for an alternative to Creed Aventus. It is an awesome smelling scent but was wondering if
there is another scent that is very similar to it.
Thread: Alternative to Creed Aventus?
Looking for an alternative to Creed Aventus. It is an awesome smelling scent but was wondering if
there is another scent that is very similar to it.
There is nothing directly similar to Aventus. I along with a few others have noticed a smokey/leathery note in Michael Kors for Men that is reminiscent of Aventus. That being said, it's not an alterative to Aventus. Jaguar Vision has been thought to be an alternative, but it's not even close. It has a pineapple note and that's where the similarities end. Truth is, Aventus is pretty unique and nobody has copied it yet. If Aventus is too pricey, just get in on a split here. It's always being split and you can get a 50ml portion for around $60-$80. I have two 50ml decants of Aventus (X02 and Z01) and it's enough to last me a long time. If you really wanna go cheap, I know of an eBay seller that makes a clone of Aventus and it smells VERY VERY much like Aventus. It lasts a long time too. It's like $25 for a 4 oz bottle. Other than that, you won't find a good alternative.

I'm not saying Aventus is the best thing ever, but I own it and love it, and I agree completely with those who have said there isn't anything else like it.
Bleecker Street has a similar vibe, but it smells very different.
If you want a scent that can serve a similar purpose, there are quite a few. But if you want one that smells like it... well... I haven't smelled anything even remotely similar.

"Follow your nose. It always knows." -- Toucan Sam
That is the general consensus. Among the reasons Aventus is so popular include 1. an unique scent (nothing really comes close) 2. its a fresh fragrance (which more than other genres tend to "smell" similar) and 3. its all-inclusive (versatile, trained and untrained noses alike can enjoy it).
I would just go for the split.
I don't need anything closer to it than Zara's Gold. You really can't expect others to have the exact same opinions on this so you'd have to sample for yourself.

There is no alternative. It's Aventus - the one and only.
personally haven't smelled anything close enough to it. I agree, getting in on a split for it is the way to go. Well worth it IMO to have the real thing
Zino by Davidoff has a similar vibe

Bvlgari Pour Homme Extreme's base is similar to Aventus but it lacks the pineapple.
Top notes of... sweat, gasoline, motor oil; a heart of deer musk and gunpowder, resting on a base of sex and testosterone... Mandom.
Ananas Fizz by L'Artisan perhaps.
There may be a few, as listed above, that are similar, but if cost is an issue just get a split here. It's like $70 for 50mL's. That's what I did anyway.
Agree regarding a split. No substitute in my opinion.
I've tried Jaquar Vision, as well as Zara Gold. Both smell cheap compared to Aventus. Just buckle and buy it.
Yardley Citrus and Wood has an Aventus like opening and a TdH drydown. Michael Kors if you like the smokey leather aspect of Aventus. Zara Gold does resemble Black XS to my nose.
Rub yourself with some pineapple.
There, you have just saved yourself a lot of money.

7. Armani Privé - Oud Royal
8. by Kilian - Cruel Intentions
9. Creed - Royal English Leather
10. Brückner - Aoud 1
Why settle for a fragrance that gives you an Aventus 'vibe.' Purchase Aventus via decants. That way you get it for much less than purchasing a bottle. Nothing comes close to being Aventus. Don't settle for less.
Wear a pair of leather chaps near a campfire while eating a pineapple....Aventus has just been duplicated!
X02 and Z01 or bust!

"We are not old men and we're not worried about petty morals." Keith Richards
today i tested zara gold and was shocked that i spend 120 EUR for 75 fot aventus and can get a good alternative at zara for about 19.90 EUR !!!!!!!! test it!!! my aventus is brand new , should i sell it??????
wow i dont expect something like this. i washed my hands a lot a take a shower and the zara smells already on my skin very good.
Disagree with the Zara gold comparisons, there are some similarities, but Zara gold smells synthetic and cheap to my nose compared to Aventus.
If you are fine sortof smelling like Aventus than I can see it being fine, but if you like the Aventus scent than the only option is to buckle down and get Aventus, as others have mentioned there are pretty regular splits conducted on this site for a 50ml.
Jo Malone Oud&Bergamot is pretty close.
People tend to only speak in extremes with Aventus... "It sucks"/"It is the BEST"
BOTH are extreme. It is nice, a bit too much wet cigarette ashes. Poor Longevity, decent projection. Too expensive but better than Dept. store scents.
It by no means smells the same, but Armani Attitude has a similar note/vibe, without the pineapple, and much dirtier. Maybe it's just me, but it always reminds me of it a little bit.

Documentation in nursing and patient monitoring or patient care.
3 Monitoring the patient and recording nursing care Nurses see the patient more than any other care Whenever you enter provider. Therefore, nurses the patient's room, are in the best position to carefully look at how the monitor the patient's progress, spot problems patient is, check all the early and judge what care is equipment in the room, needed to solve the and check the problem. To do these things the nurse must use environment of the room. every opportunity to assess the patient, always asking the question, "What is happening to this patient?". Here are some basic guidelines to use when you are checking what is happening to the patient. Get background information Before you go into a patient's room, check the chart to see what has been done today, what problems other caregivers have noted, and whether there is any other new information available about the patient. If possible, talk about this with the nurse who is going off duty. / 15 Nursing care of the sick Observe the patient • Listen to the patient's breathing, look at his or her colour, and see whether the patient is awake. • Immediately take the patient's vital signs if you see any signs that the patient is having trouble breathing, is breathing too fast, or his or her colour is unnaturally pale or reddish, or if the patient appears to be in distress. Report problems to the nurse in charge or the doctor. • Do not wake up the patient for assessment or care unless the breathing or colour indicates a problem. If the patient's breathing, colour, or position in the bed suggests unconsciousness rather than normal sleep, try to wake up the patient. If you cannot rouse him or her, call for help. At the same time, make sure that the patient's airway is open; if necessary, open it by lifting the lower jaw. Talk with the patient • If the patient is awake, ask how he or she is and whether he or she is comfortable. • Ask about any pain. • Ask whether the treatment or medication given has helped. • Ask whether the patient has been eating and drinking. • Ask about urinary and faecal elimination. • Note any problems the patient mentions. If the person does not volunteer information, ask specifically about symptoms that you might expect to find, such as fatigue, nausea, or respiratory problems. If family members are present, it is helpful also to ask them how the patient seems and whether they have noted any problems. Ask them also about what the patient has eaten and drunk. 16 \ Chapter 3. Monitoring the patient and recording nursing care Examine the patient Examine the patient briefly from head to toe, noting any changes or abnormalities. Pay particular attention to the problems which brought the patient into the hospital. What you look for will depend on what the problem is and what body systems are affected by it. Check any equipment in use The checks you make will depend on what the patient's problem is and what equipment is being used for the problem; it may be an oxygen system, a nasogastric tube, an indwelling catheter, or an intravenous line, for example. If the patient is receiving oxygen: Make sure that the cannula or catheter is properly placed. Check that the oxygen is humidified and running at the ordered number of litres per minute. Check also that there is enough oxygen in the tank. If the patient has an intravenous line: Make sure the intravenous line is open and the correct solution is flowing at the correct rate. Check the site where the catheter enters the skin for any redness, warmth, or signs that the solution may be leaking from the vein out into the tissues. If the skin is swollen or pale at the site and the patient feels pain, it is likely that the fluid has gone into the tissues and the intravenous line must be taken out and put in again. / 17 Nursing care of the sick If the patient has a foley catheter in place: Check the urine output. Look at whether the urine is clear, cloudy, reddish, or dark and concentrated. Check the intake and output record to help you to work out the patient's fluid status. Make sure that the foley catheter tubing is not twisted. The foley bag should not be resting on the floor. Assess the patient's environment It is the nurse's responsibility to see that the patient's environment is clean and safe. • Check the overall cleanliness of the room and floor. Make sure the floor is dry. • h Check the patient's bed and t e area around it. Make sure that the bedding is clean and smooth and the area around the bed is clean and tidy. Dirty eating equipment and soiled tissue can be a source of infection for the patient and the nurse. • Check that the toilet area is clean. If possible, see that the patient has soap and a towel for washing. • Check that the patient has what he or she needs. • If the patient is able to drink fluids, make sure that there is fresh water by the bed. 18 \ Chapter 3. Monitoring the patient and recording nursing care Take the patient's vital signs Vital signs are vital. One of the most important aspects of assessing the patient is taking the vital signs. The patient's vital signs are temperature, pulse, breathing (respiration) and blood pressure. Changes in any of the vital signs can indicate changes in the patient's condition. Large or sudden changes should always be reported to the doctor. • Vital signs should be checked on admission and at regular intervals after that. In many hospitals they are checked every four hours. • When patients are in intensive care or have just come back from surgery, their vital signs are checked more frequently. • Vital signs should also be checked: ♦ before and after any invasive procedure ♦ before and after giving any medication that can affect blood pressure or respiration ♦ before and after any nursing procedure that might affect any vital signs, for example, walking a patient who has been on bed rest. Always check vital signs when a patient complains of light-headedness, dizziness, being suddenly hot, or whenever the patient's condition changes for the worse. / 19 Nursing care of the sick Temperature The body temperature is the heat of the body measured in degrees. The average temperature of an adult measured orally is between 36.7oC and 37oC. A temperature higher than the usual average is called a fever or hyperthermia. At its first Clinical alert: Extremely appearance, the signs of fever high fevers can cause include: convulsions. They can • an increased pulse damage the liver, • increased kidneys and other breathing organs and even cause • shivering • cold skin death. • feelings of being cold (having a chill). During the course of the fever, clinical signs include: • skin that feels warm to the touch • continued increased pulse rate and breathing • thirst • dehydration • loss of appetite • a general feeling of unease • drowsiness, restlessness and, in severe cases, delirium. When a fever begins to go down, the patient still feels warm and is flushed and sweating; the person may also be dehydrated but does not have chills. A body temperature which is lower than the average is called hypothermia. The clinical signs include: • severe shivering • pale, cool, waxy skin • low blood pressure (hypotension) • decreased urinary output 20 \ Chapter 3. Monitoring the patient and recording nursing care • disorientation • in severe cases, drowsiness and coma. The nurse routinely takes the patient's temperature to check for infection. Fever is a sign of infection. If a patient has a fever, the nurse checks the temperature to see whether fever is continuing, getting worse, or whether the medication has reduced the temperature. The nurse also takes the temperature to see whether the care given has changed it. The body temperature can be measured at oral, rectal and axillary (under the arm) sites. It can also be measured in the ear at the tympanic membrane (ear drum). A mercury thermometer is generally used to measure temperature. The thermometer may have a long slender tip or a rounded tip. The slender tip is best for oral or axillary temperature; the rounded tip is used to take rectal temperature. To read a mercury thermometer, hold it at eye level and turn it until you can see the mercury line. The upper end of the line, the highest point the mercury has reached, gives the temperature. How to take an oral temperature A person's temperature is usually measured in the mouth, or orally. This is the easiest way to take a temperature. If the patient is under five years old or is confused, the temperature must be taken another way in case he or she bites the thermometer and breaks it. If a patient has had cold or hot fluids or has been smoking, you must wait 15 to 30 minutes before taking an oral temperature to make sure that the temperature reading is accurate. • Wash your hands. • Shake the thermometer down to below 35oC. • Put the thermometer under the patient's tongue, to the right or left of the pocket at the base of the tongue. / 21 Nursing care of the sick • Tell the patient to close his or her lips, but not the teeth, around the thermometer. Leave the thermometer in place for at least three minutes. • Take out the thermometer and read the temperature. • Wash the thermometer in soapy lukewarm water (never hot), rinse it in cold water, wipe it with disinfectant and store it dry. • Wash your hands and record the temperature. How to take an axillary temperature To take an axillary temperature, the thermometer is put under the patient's arm (in the axilla). This is not the most accurate way to take a temperature, but it is done for adults who have inflammation of the mouth and patients who are confused. An axillary temperature is usually a half degree lower than an oral temperature. • Wash your hands. • Prepare the thermometer just as you would to take an oral temperature. • Put the thermometer under the patient's arm in the axilla. • Ask the patient to hold the arm tight against the chest and leave the thermometer in place for five minutes in children and nine minutes in adults.. • Take out the thermometer, read the temperature and clean and store the thermometer. • Wash your hands and record the temperature. How to take a rectal temperature Rectal temperatures are considered the most accurate. They are usually taken only with infants and children who cannot yet hold a thermometer in their mouth without breaking it. A rectal temperature is usually a degree higher than an oral temperature. When you take a rectal temperature, use a thermometer with a rounded tip. • Wash your hands. 22 \ Chapter 3. Monitoring the patient and recording nursing care • Ask the patient to lie on his or her side, with knees flexed. A child should lie on one side or prone, on your lap. • Check the temperature recorded on the thermometer. If it reads more than 35oC, shake it down. • Put some lubricant on a tissue and then onto the first 2.5 cm of the thermometer. The lubricant makes it easier not to irritate the membranes when you put in the thermometer. • Ask the patient to take a deep breath and put the thermometer into the anus from 1.5 to 4 cm depending on the patient's age and size. Do not force the thermometer. • Hold the thermometer in place for two minutes. • Remove the thermometer, wipe it with a tissue, and discard the tissue. Read the thermometer. • Wash and rinse the thermometer, wipe it with disinfectant, dry it and store it dry. • Wash your hands. • Record the temperature. How to take the patient's pulse The heart is a pump that pushes blood into the arteries. With each heartbeat, there is a pulsing pressure as the blood goes into the arteries. The pulse therefore reflects the heartbeat. A normal adult pulse usually is from 60 to 80 beats a minute, but the range is 60 to 100. / 23 Nursing care of the sick The pulse is faster in women than in men. It is much faster in children than in adults. The pulse increases with exercise and with stress, and when the patient has a fever. The pulse is also faster when the patient is losing blood. Some medications decrease the pulse rate and others increase it. It is important to take the patient's pulse to find out whether it is in the normal range, and whether it is regular or not. Most of the time the pulse is taken on the thumb side of the inner wrist; this is called the radial pulse. The radial pulse is on the A pulse can also be taken at several other thumb side of the wrist places on the body. If you cannot get to the radial pulse because the patient has a bandage there, or you need to assess the pulse in a particular part of the body, use another site. Any pulse taken away from the heart is called a peripheral pulse. To take the patient's peripheral pulse, whether on the wrist or at another site, you need a clock or a watch with a second hand. • Use your index and middle fingertips or all three middle fingertips and apply moderate pressure over the pulse point, until you feel the pulsing. Never use your thumb because you have a pulse in your thumb that you could mistake for the patient's pulse. • Count the number of beats for a full minute. After that, if the pulse is normal, count for 30 seconds and multiply by two. • Note whether the pulse is weak, normal, or too strong (bounding). • Note whether the pulse is regular or not. • If the pulse is faster or slower than usual for this patient, or the pulse is irregular or bounding or weak, report this to the nurse or doctor in charge. 24 \ Chapter 3. Monitoring the patient and recording nursing care How to take an apical pulse Sometimes a pulse may be so weak that you cannot hear it unless you listen to it near the heart. A pulse taken at the apex of the heart is called the apical pulse. To take an apical pulse, you need a stethoscope and a watch which shows the seconds. • Wash your hands. Taking an apical pulse • Use an antiseptic wipe to clean the earpieces and diaphragm (the flat- edged piece of the stethoscope) if they are soiled. • Find the pulse site on the left side of the chest. • Put the earpieces of the stethoscope in your ears, with the ear pieces pointing or facing forward. • Put the diaphragm over the apical pulse and listen for heart sounds, which sound like "lub dub." • Note whether the spaces between heart sounds are regular or not. This is the rhythm of the heart beat. • Note the strength or weakness (volume) of the heartbeat. • Count the heartbeats for 30 seconds and multiply by 2 if the rhythm is regular; count them for 60 seconds if the pulse is irregular. This is the pulse rate. • Wash your hands. • Record the pulse rate, rhythm and strength. / 25 Nursing care of the sick Check the patient's breathing The normal rate of breathing, or respiration, in a resting adult is 12 (or more commonly 15) to 20 breaths a minute. The rate is higher in infants. It is also higher in a person who is exercising or under stress, and when the outside temperature is higher. Infections and respiratory disorders increase the rate as well. Some medications such as narcotics decrease respiration. When people lie flat on their back, they breathe less deeply. It is important to check breathing when the patient is resting. It is best for the patient not to be aware that you are checking respiration, so that he or she breathes as usual. Count the breaths while you still have your fingers on the patient's pulse, as if you were continuing to count the pulse. The patient will not notice that you are actually checking the breathing. • To check the rate of breathing, count the number of breaths for at least a minute. • To check the rhythm, note whether the spaces between breaths are regular or not. • To check the depth of breathing, look at the movement of the person's chest or place your hand on the person's chest to feel the movement. When the person breathes in, the ribs move upward and outward so that the lungs can expand; when the person breathes out, the ribs move in as the lungs are compressed. If there is a lot of movement of the chest, the breathing is deep; if the movement is very little, the breathing is shallow. • Look at the amount of effort the patient has to make in order to breathe, and listen to the sound of the person's breathing. Normal breathing is silent and easy. Sometimes the patient is clearly working to breathe, particularly when he or she is lying flat. If the patient is working hard, you will often see tightness of the neck and shoulder muscles. Sometimes you will see that the skin has been pulled in above the sternum or below the ribs (called insuction or retraction). 26 \ Chapter 3. Monitoring the patient and recording nursing care • Listen for wheezing, which is a whistling Clinical alert. or sighing sound. Always report Wheezing is a sign of serious infection, fast breathing. It is asthma, or a block- a sign that age in the airway. something is wrong. • Write down what It can mean that you notice about the the patient has an patient's breathing. If you see any infection such as changes in the pneumonia, patient, tell the nurse in charge or the heart failure, doctor imme-diately. blood loss or other problems. How to take blood pressure Blood pressure is a measure of the pressure that the blood makes as it moves through the body's arteries. There are two kinds of blood pressure: systolic pressure and diastolic pressure. • Systolic pressure is the highest pressure produced when the left ventricle of the heart contracts. It is the pressure of the wave of blood going into the arteries. • Diastolic pressure is the lowest pressure produced when the left ventricle relaxes. It is the pressure that is always within the arteries. • Blood pressure is measured in millimetres of mercury (mm Hg) and is usually given as the systolic pressure followed by the diastolic pressure, with a slash between. / 27 Nursing care of the sick Example of blood pressure: systolic → 140 diastolic pressure 90 ← pressure • The normal blood pressure of an adult ranges from 110/60 to 140/90 mm Hg, and the average is 120/80 mm Hg. High blood pressure or hypertension is pressure that continues to be above 140/90 mm Hg. Low blood pressure or hypotension is systolic pressure that is below 100 mm Hg. It is important to know the patient's normal blood pressure in order to see changes that may show problems. Blood pressure is measured with a blood pressure cuff, a sphygmomanometer, and a stethoscope. The stethoscope is used to listen to the sounds of the blood in the artery. 28 \ Chapter 3. Monitoring the patient and recording nursing care Take the blood pressure in the patient's arm using the brachial artery, which is the artery in the middle of the elbow crease. • To begin, wash your hands. • Put the patient in a comfortable position, sit- ting or lying on one side, with the arm to be measured slightly bent Place stethoscope over the brachial pulse and in the elbow crease supported. The cuff should be at the level of the heart. • Wrap the cuff around the upper arm and fasten it. The bladder inside the cuff has to be directly over the artery. The lower border of the cuff should be about 2.5 cm above the elbow crease (called the antecubital space). • Feel the artery with your fingertips. It should be in the centre of the antecubital space. This is called the brachial pulse. • While you are feeling the brachial pulse with one hand, close the valve and pump up the cuff with the other hand. Pump until the reading on the sphygmomanometer is 30 mm above the point where the brachial pulse disappears. • Put the diaphragm of the stethoscope over the brachial artery. • Release the valve on the cuff slowly so that the pressure goes down at the rate of 2-3 mm per second. • Listen for the sounds. / 29 Nursing care of the sick The systolic pressure is the pressure at which you first hear tapping sounds. Make sure that you hear two sounds, to be sure you have not mistaken some other sound for the blood sound. • Note the reading on the sphygmomanometer when you first hear the tapping sounds. That is the systolic pressure reading. • Again, note the reading on the sphygmomanometer when you hear the last sound; that is the diastolic pressure reading. The diastolic pressure is the point at which the very last sound is heard. • Release the valve and deflate the cuff quickly. • Remove the cuff from the patient's arm and record the blood pressure readings, with the systolic first and the diastolic second. • If there are any significant changes in blood pressure from the last time it was measured, report this immediately. Plan the nursing care After checking how the patient is (the status), plan the care you will give this day. The plan of care will include: • procedures ordered by the doctor • nursing measures to provide comfort and promote recovery. 30 \ Chapter 3. Monitoring the patient and recording nursing care Record the patient's status and nursing care Recording or noting information is an essential part of nursing care. After you have checked the patient and provided care, you need to note three types of information: • important information about the status of the patient • the care you gave the patient • the patient's response to your care. The main reason for writing down information about the patient is so that the caregiver who follows you knows what has been happening. The next caregiver needs to know how the patient was before, to see if anything has changed. For example, you take vital signs not only to decide whether the patient has a problem needing your immediate attention, but also to provide baseline data for the nurse who follows you. Then when that nurse takes vital signs, he or she can quickly see whether they are stable or whether there are changes that need to be watched or which need to be dealt with immediately. Write a nurse's note only about what you think is important. A nurse's note might look like this: Date Time 15/9/97 0800 Dressing changed and drainage checked. Wound is clean. Patient says she is in less pain than yesterday but continues to be nauseated. S. Ramos, RN / 31 Nursing care of the sick It is very important to write your notes as soon as you leave the patient. If you wait until later, you will forget what you have seen or done or you will confuse what you saw in this patient with what you saw in others. Never wait to record. Evaluate the care given After caring for the patient, always go back to see if your nursing care has been effective. For example, if you give the patient medication for pain, go back to see if the patient is feeling more comfortable. If your nursing measures have not been effective, you may need to plan and carry out other measures to help the patient. Reminder The patient's status should be assessed every time the nurse gives care. Your observations and the information you gather from the patient help you to decide whether the patient is getting better or is experiencing problems that need attention. 32 \ << Back to Table of Contents

Craftsman Garage Clicker Works Intermittently
Model # 139.53914d belt driven.
I purchased a new home and it came with this garage door opener.
It had a keypad outside and after several times trying to reprogram it finally worked but only a couple times.
I then decided to go and purchase a new keypad and clicker.
After programming both they would work but only close up to the machine. Maybe about a foot and a half away. It was not even doing that on a consistent basis.
After going in to the crawl space to see where the wires run to I found that they both run vertically upwards.
One of the wires runs up and along the support beams horizontally towards the outside wall and straight down back into the garage into some sort of drywall box that protrudes inside the garage. This drywall box seems to be containing lots of wiring that i noticed running into it from the crawl space.
the other run runs up vertically and then heads straight back towards the house horizontally and then straight down to some unknown location.
Thanks for the help.
seven one four five nine nine three seven two five if anyone is an expert or knows what they are doing can call if they would rather talk me thru this.
I called craftsman and they will only send a technician out for an absorbent amount and they would only troubleshoot the opener over the phone if I was in my 90 day warranty period.
Here are some things to check. Some like battery condition you can ignore. It will also give you an idea why the technician charges are what they are.
Limited range of your remote controls could be related to radio frequency interference that comes from something in your home or in the surrounding environment. Certain electrical devices can radiate interference; this could be almost anything that is plugged into an electrical outlet.
Please keep in mind that the device can be brand new, or can be an item that has been in use for quite a while. Also, the item may continue to function properly as far as you are able to tell. The only problem with the item may be that it has started to broadcast the interference, with no other symptoms noted.
Some devices are more likely to generate interference than others. This includes TV cable, cable amplifiers, surge protectors, fluorescent lights, battery charging devices (power tools, golf carts, etc.), anything that utilizes a timer (sprinkler systems, lights, alarm systems, etc.), and a myriad of others. If the problem seems sporadic, we can safely assume that the device responsible for the interference is only being operated during these times. Again, please keep in mind that the age of the device does not determine if it is capable of broadcasting unwanted interference. Any electrical device can be the source of the problem.
The first step is replacing the battery in your remote. If the range on your remote does not improve, remove the wall control wires from the overhead unit. If the range does not improve you will likely need to replace the remote control. After replacing the remote, or if you have other remotes programmed in to the opener, and the range problem still exists, please proceed to the Power Down test.
Power Down test:
To isolate potential sources of interference, turn the circuit breaker off to the garage and plug the garage door opener into an extension cord from another room. If the range improves, then the interference is coming from a device in the garage. If no improvement is seen follow the same procedure, this time turning off the circuit breakers to your home, with the exception of the garage and test the remote controls. If improvement is noted, turn the circuit breakers back on, one by one, until the range problem resurfaces. This will allow you to narrow down what room the problem device is in. You will have to go from there to isolate it further, by unplugging and re-plugging the items in that room.
If you are unable to determine any source of interference, then the receiver logic board in the overhead unit will need to be replaced.
Garage door remote not working? The Pentagon may be to blame.
Not because of any grand conspiracy theory, but rather the mundane use of a radio frequency the military hadn't used much before.
US homeowners in coastal Orange County, California, are among the latest to discover this quirk. There, signals from Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach have been interfering with garage door openers as far as half a mile (0.8 kilometres) away since March.
That's when testing began on a new radio system that will allow the base to network with local fire and police agencies during emergencies. The frequency falls in the range of 380-399.9 megahertz, a band long reserved for the Department of Defence but rarely used.
"We hadn't had the need to use these frequencies before. As a result, garage door manufacturers began using them because they were pretty quiet," said Gregg Smith, a spokesman for the Navy station. "With the explosion of communications technology over the past 20 years, the DOD has been squeezed to use bands it didn't need to use before."
Reports of interference with garage door openers near military installations have been reported from Rhode Island to San Diego to Hawaii.
"Out of the blue, the garage door just stopped working," said Bill Davey, 51, of Norco. "We changed all the batteries in the remotes. When it still didn't work, it was like 'What's going on here?' "
The culprit was a Navy installation a quarter-mile (0.4 kilometres) away.
The Federal Communications Commission allows the so-called unlicensed use of frequencies for low-power purposes such as garage door openers and vehicle key fobs as long as they don't interfere with government communications systems, Smith said.
Smith said he's fielded 16 complaints from people near the Seal Beach base, but he assumes the interference is affecting many more. People can buy a device to retrofit their openers to another frequency; Davey's cost $US60.
"Once you explain how it all works, folks aren't happy, but they've been understanding," Smith said.

Welcome to Emmanuel Church!
Come join us for EfM!
EfM, Education for Ministry, is a seminar group that uses study, prayer, and reflection to help the participants explore who and what God is calling us to be. We develop relationships with each other, and deepen our relationship to God. Each seminar session begins with a check in, a time to share our lives and experiences with each other. We discuss the weekly readings. Each year group studies a different topic: Old Testament, New Testament, church history, and theology and ethics. There is a lot of study of the Bible, but is it more than a traditional Bible study. We also share worship each week, with everyone having a chance to lead it. The most important part of EFM is the theological reflection. We wrestle with how a scripture passage, an event, or an issue fits into our religious tradition and our current culture. We develop our position about the subject, and what action we are called next to do. We practice these skills so we can use them in any context, with whatever life throws at us.
The 2013-2014 EfM group had 11 fabulous participants from 3 different churches. Two of the members will graduate, and receive a certificate from Sewanee, The University of the South. Sewanee developed and oversees the program. Over 70,000 students have participated in EfM from 10 different countries. It is a four year course, but students only commit to one year at a time. We have a spot for YOU! For more information, contact Lisa Webb, 410-810-4024.
Both the Year One text (Collins) and the Year Two text (Powell) have web resources to support users.
EfM has a page on Facebook.
Adult Forum:
In the Aftermath of our Episcopal Spiritual Life Renewal workshops, we created a Renewal Council to implement ideas generated by participants. One of these ideas selected for implementation was holding an adult forum to discuss topics raised by the sermon. Therefore, each Sunday, after the 10:30 Service, during the coffee hour, an informal group meets to discuss the day's homily. All are welcome to attend these sessions!
You attended or heard about our Church Fair on 8 September. We now ask each of you to broaden your own participation. Please prayerfully consider how you might best add to your spiritual reservoir by helping others in our internal ministries or Outreach Programs.
On Ash Wednesday we are invited "to the observance of a Holy Lent, by self-examination and repentance; by prayer, fasting, and self-denial; and by reading and meditating on God's holy Word" (BCP 265). This day marks the beginning of a liturgical season dedicated to reminding us of what God has done and continues to do for us in our daily lives. By focusing on God's message of forgiveness and absolution, we are called to renew our commitment to Christ and his church as we reflect on Jesus' life, death and glorious resurrection.
Originating in the fourth century of the church, the season of Lent spans 40 weekdays beginning on Ash Wednesday and climaxing during Holy Week with Holy Thursday (Maundy Thursday), Good Friday, and concluding Saturday before Easter. Originally, Lent was the time of preparation for those who were to be baptized, a time of concentrated study and prayer before their baptism at the Easter Vigil, the celebration of the Resurrection of the Lord early on Easter Sunday. But since these new members were to be received into a living community of Faith, the entire community was called to preparation. Also, this was the time when those who had been separated from the Church would prepare to rejoin the community.
Today, Lent is marked by a time of prayer and preparation to celebrate Easter. Since Sundays celebrate the resurrection of Jesus, the six Sundays that occur during Lent are not counted as part of the 40 days of Lent, and are referred to as the Sundays in Lent. The number 40 is connected with many biblical events, but especially with the forty days Jesus spent in the wilderness preparing for His ministry by facing the temptations that could lead him to abandon his mission and calling.
Join us at Emmanuel Church, Chester Parish, for a holy Lent. All are welcome to join in this time of prayer, self-examination, and repentance as we seek to realign ourselves with God's vision for us as members of the Body of Christ.

"I believe we are here for a reason. I believe we were not born into this generation by accident. I believe that the community of which we are a part came into being with a purpose. In a time when so many shadows hang over our world, our task is to be an alternative of light. Where there is doubt, we can inspire hope. Where there is anger, we can offer reconciliation. Where there is prejudice, we can embody shared respect. To do this, we do not have to agree on how we pray or how we vote. We only need to agree that what unites us is stronger than what divides us: our vocation is to show the world that love is stronger than fear." (posted by the Rt. Rev. Steven Charleston, March 12, 2015).

The youth of Emmanuel Church have designated this year's Lenten collection "Give Change to Make Change" to be used to support their project of rebuilding Chester Cabin at Camp Wright. The monies collected during Lent 2015 and on Easter Sunday will be combined with the proceeds from the Pancake Brunch held February 21. The response so far has been impressive and as of March 26, our young people have raised almost half of the $7,000 needed to fully fund the renovation of Chester Cabin. Please help our youth, as you are able, with this worthwhile project.
We are pleased to announce that Emmanuel is the recipient of a CHALLENGE GRANT opportunity. An anonymous parishioner has offered to match all cash and check contributions to the Chester Cabin "Give Change To Make Change" collection from Palm Sunday through Easter Sunday up to a total of $600! Help us by donating what you can in cash or by check to the jars this Sunday and next so this $600 challenge grant becomes $1200.
With Easter less than three weeks away, the Flower Guild asks that requests and donations for Easter memorials should be made by Tuesday, March 31 for inclusion in the Easter service bulletins. A suggested donation of $50 is requested to accompany the name or names you wish included in the memorials. Checks should be made out to Emmanuel Church with "Easter flowers" in the memo line. Please be sure to print the name of the person you are remembering as you would like it to appear in the leaflet. Please contact the Parish Office (emmanuelchestertown@gmail or 410-778-3477) if you have any questions.
Saturday March 28th 9:00 AM - 2:00 PM A Quiet Day of Silence and Meditation. Sometimes it is difficult to make time to slow down and receive from God, and this morning of quiet is a perfect opportunity to rest and receive from our loving God all that God wishes to give us. We will have several meditations offered by our leader, Sr. BJ Brown, interspersed with time and space to be still with God. Suggested donation: $25 - $40. Includes lunch.
Saturday April 4th 5:30-7:30 PM Easter Saturday: A Contemplative Service of Watching and Waiting In the church at the Retreat House at St. Paul's Church, Hillsboro. Holy Saturday is a time of waiting… a time that is in between the deep grief of Good Friday and the deep joy of Easter morning. Come join us as we share a meditative, quiet service of listening for the heartbeat of God in the time in between. The service will include times of spoken prayer, times of silent prayer and Taize music. The Reverend Tom Hughes will officiate. To register for either program contact Francie Thayer by email at email@example.com, or by phone at 410-364-7042.
From Linda and Hanson Robbins: Please come to the first meeting of the 2015 Christmas Bazaar Committee on Sunday, April 12, after Coffee Hour. Bring any friends! We had such great participation last year, let's double it!
On Yam Hashoah, the annual commemoration of the Holocaust, Dr. Gary Schiff will present a lecture and slide show covering 500 years of Jewish history in the Netherlands. The lecture will take place at 5 p.m. on Wednesday, April 15 in the Hynson Lounge of Hodson Hall at Washington College. Dr. Schiff, adjunct professor of history, will chronicle the experience of Jews who began arriving as refugees in a newly independent and tolerant Holland beginning in the late 1500's. While Dutch tolerance and acceptance of Jews was well known, the experience of the Dutch Jews under the Nazis was actually the worst of any Western European country.
On Friday, Friday, April 17, at 7:30 p.m., David Schelat will join us for his second appearance in Emmanuel's Organ Concert Series. David is the Minister of Music at First and Central Presbyterian Church, Wilmington, DE. He is also the Dean of the Delaware Chapter of the American Guild of Organists. He is a frequent recitalist in the mid-Atlantic region, has been heard on the nationally syndicated program on American Public Media, "Pipedreams," and is a member of the Concert Organist Cooperative. He has planned and played numerous hymn festivals in the United States, Canada, and in Europe, including festivals for conferences of the Hymn Society in the United States and Canada, the American Guild of Organists, and the National Association of Pastoral Musicians.
Thank you to the many parishioners who have hosted Coffee Hour in the past few months! We are grateful for your generosity and service. However, we need hosts for the upcoming Sundays. A simple spread of some snacks and freshly made coffee are all that is necessary. Please take this opportunity to volunteer as a host or co-host of Coffee Hour. The sign-up sheet can be found on the bulletin board nearest the kitchen in the Parish Hall. There are plenty of opportunities to be a part of this important ministry in the April, May and June. Craig and Andy Jackson will be glad to answer any questions.

Germany eases restrictions 2007-08-29
Germany intends to make access to their labour market easier for nationals from the 12 new European Union nations that have joined since 2004. This represents a significant change in policy. Due to a serious shortage of skilled professionals, the country is now planning to allow electrical and mechanical engineers from these EU states into the German labor market.

The Rev. Dr. Christopher J. Benek
Luke 12:48
"From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked."
People idolize a lot of things using them as coping mechanisms. When we lose interest or hope, when we get depressed – we turn to things that we think will fill the void. Sometimes these little "g" gods can provide people with a false sense of identity. Alcohol, drugs, smoking, excessive eating… excessive anything really, can lead us down a narcissistic path of unhealthy living. Sex too can be one of these idols.
In the future, Virtual Reality is going to change many fundamental ways in which humans interact. One of those changes is going to be the elimination of language barriers. From a theological standpoint, VR is going to be one of the prime mechanisms by which people, participating in Christ's redemptive purposes, begin to deliver humankind from the implications of the religious myth of the Tower of Babel.
"I don't see Christ's redemption limited to human beings." That was my quote a couple of weeks ago in article from a popular global technology site about artificial intelligence and religion. A lot of people, particularly Christians, have asked me about that quote since. "Do you really think that you can save robots?" they ask. "Do you really think that you can convert computers to Christianity?" they inquire. My response is usually something like "well… let's back up a bit first and then I'll answer your question."
Human beings long for connection. We long for community. We seek to be loved. Yet most of the time, as if a flashing beacon of our self-abuse, we act like this isn't the case.
Anyone who even loosely pays attention to social media knows that it comes with its fair share of narcissism. Self-promotion, selfies and the lack of personal accountability are all prominent aspects of social media environments. But what people often fail to recognize is that social media and greater technological advancement are also helping people to live more fully in Jesus as well.
In an age of exponential technological growth, people increasingly have to become more adaptable to find jobs. This is because the employment landscape is ever-changing. But this should come as no surprise if we draw connections between our occupational calling and our faith.
Of all the things Jesus was ever credited with saying, John 13:34 might be the most annoying.
I have seen a growing backlash against evidentially-based thought and reasonable belief. Many believe these two categories of thought to be mutually exclusive, but I think they are complementary. Here is why:
Are you an H+ or an I+ transhumanist?
If you have ever been on a short-term mission trip you have likely asked the question: "Is this trip really helping the local people?" Many times an experience may feel like it isn't. So how is one to know if one is helping or hurting others with their aid?
Accounts of miracles in the Bible demonstrate that the power of belief can reorder the universe. Could our belief today enable us to reorder our environment and change our world?
About a month ago famed theoretical physicist, cosmologist and author Stephen Hawking wrote an article "The Independent" that questioned whether human beings are taking Artificial Intelligence seriously enough. He also specifically indicated that he thinks experts in the field aren't doing enough to prepare for the vast global changes the AI onset will bring about. I believe Stephen Hawking is overlooking one very important characteristic of humanity.

rust stains on aida
sudiepavApril 8, 2005
We moved, and among the (many)treasures I found was a partially completed cross stich. I had put the needle in it, probably intending to come right back to it, but somehow, it got tucked away, and there are 2 rust spots where the needle was inserted! The background is cream, so a bleach pen probably will make matters worse. Any other ideas? Thanks

Northeast Dairy Farmers Assess Mad Cow Repercussions
By Pat Bradley
Plattsburgh, NY – Dairy farmers throughout the region are closely watching the reported case of mad-cow disease in Washington state. Here in the Northeast, the primary concern lies in the potential economic fallout, rather than a possible outbreak of the disease in the dairy herd. North Country Bureau Chief Pat Bradley reports.

Need help for ideas using antique comics
hedgwytchAugust 14, 2006
I was at an auction recently, and bid on a box of children's books. At the bottom was a ton of comic books. Some were very valuable. Unfortunately, a lot of them don't have covers, so are useless to collectors. I was trying to find a use for them. I couldn't find any ideas doing a search, so was wondering if anyone here knew of anything.
Thanks so much!
My first thought was to wallpaper a small bathroom with them! LOL I think they'd be cute, especially in a child's bathroom.
You might put some pages under glass on a table?
Wrap gifts for your friends (esp. if the comics are of "their" vintage)
I've seen them decoupaged directly on a coffee or sofa table.
Next? LOL

Award-winning author William Kent Krueger has gained an immense fan base for his Cork O'Connor series. In Ordinary Grace, Krueger looks back to 1961 to tell the story of Frank Drum, a boy on the cusp of manhood. A typical 13-year-old with a strong, loving family, Frank is devastated when a tragedy forces him to face the unthinkable - and to take on a maturity beyond his years.
©2013 William Kent Krueger (P)2013 Recorded Books
"Krueger aims higher and hits harder with a stand-alone novel that shares much with his other work." (Kirkus Reviews)
"Wonderful Wonderful - In Every Way"
This book is beautiful. Just brilliant. It's a mystery that takes place in Minnesota in 1961 with classic literature; very reminiscent of To Kill A Mockingbird. So much so that I found myself listening to this story in black and white.
A beautiful tale with a 'morals in an immoral world' theme. One of the main characters is a wonderful peaceful father who has to guide his children through the animalistic ways of mankind. The family in this book are that of the town's minister's which lends itself to discussions of religion.
Once started I was completely immersed in each member of this family and all the people that they come in contact with. I plowed through this for I could NOT put this down. Just when I thought I saw a direction this was going - I found myself surprised.
I have never read this author before. If you have, be very careful to read the synopsis carefully for this is a stand alone book. I would be thrilled if this would become a series book though.
Rich Orlow is such an enhancement to this story by giving every character an identity. He does the voice of the deaf, women, men, children, Indians, aristocrats to perfection. What a talent.
I will be looking for this author and narrator other works.
I listen to and have recently started to write reviews. I've found the reviews have helped me to select books.
"By the Grace of God"
The coming of age can certainly make a boy of 13 grow up fast. Frank Drum was that boy. He definitely has a story to tell.
There are many participant's in this story and each of them have their own story to tell. These character's are very well developed. The reader will come to know each one as an individual. Listen closely because each one of them are important in contributing to the coming of age of Frank Drum.
I definitely encourage other's to purchase this book. The plot is very well developed. The characters are interesting people and the author, William Kent Krueger, wrote about them so that the listener will want to continue reading to the very last page. The narrator, Rich Orlow, is excellent. He makes the character's come alive. He makes listening to, Ordinary Grace, a pleasure and an easy listen.
The mystery of who committed the murders that summer in Breman, a small town where everyone knows everyone else, is difficult to understand. Why would anyone want to end the life of another?
Always remember that the dead are never far from us, just one single breath will take us to them.
"best book to come along this year!!"
After a series of great murder mysteries, staring Cork O'Conner, Kruger has come up with a genius of a stand alone coming of age, murder mystery, and trestles on the "awful grace of God".
Our of the best books that I've ever read.
Frank is telling his story some forty years after the actual events that took place during his thirteenth year. In 1961, small town Minnesota, the summer is hot, the people know everything about everyone, and life is good. But this all changes when a young boy is killed while playing on the train tracks. Frank , and his stuttering younger brother, speculate about this tragedy. Their father is the town's Methodist minister, and folks look to him to answer the preverbal question of "Why would God let this happen?".
But that was just the beginning of this momentous summer for Frank, his family, and this small town. There will be three more deaths. An itinerant man is found amongst the weeds, there is a suicide, and finally a murder. Everyone in the town is affected by these tragedies in some way---bringing out the best and the worst in people.
Kruger's writing is filled with wonderful descriptive phrases. His characters will touch your heart in ways that will be difficult to put away after you've finished this book. His specific and thoughtful discussions of God's grace as seen through Frank's eyes will keep you wondering about your own faith. Simply a five, no five times five star read. This book has something for every reader to enjoy!!
"Very enjoyable!"
I cannot find the words to express the contemplative quiet this novel invoked in me. As an atheist I usually do not care for themes of faith and especially preaching. This book discusses life's questions against the backdrop of a young man and his family dynamics. However, the story is nicely woven and stands on its own regardless of the deeper thoughts.
Jennifer B.
"Almost perfect"
This is a book that makes you want to write one of your own, based on your childhood memories. But you could never do as well as William Kent Kreuger has done here. I was completely immersed in the Minnesota landscape, I could feel the heat and the worry, and the darkness. It's not often that I cry while listening to an audio book, but I cried many times while listening to the extraordinary work.
The only nit I would pick is that it becomes almost unbelievable that the young hero is always present (through eavesdropping, or overhearing, or circumstance) in all of the key plot developments.
Go ahead, and buy this one. It's almost perfect.
"Extrodinary Novel"
This book works on many levels. It is a mystery story, you won't want to put it down. Most of all Ordinary Grace is an extraordinary work of fiction. It is a coming of age story with themes of family, sorrow, justice, resiliency, forgiveness, and perhaps most of all faith.
If you like any one book of any one of the following authors I think you will like this book: John Irving, Kent Haruf, Leif Enger, Marilynne Robinson, David James Duncan.
Also, I really appreciate when audible adds the author interview after the reading, this one was interesting.
"Great author and Great reader"
It is up there at the very top.
It revolved around a family and the people in the town and also it had mystery in it too.
I really liked the family.
Oh Rich Orlow's voice! This was a great story, but with Rich Orlow reading it, I was mesmerized. I stayed up all through the night listening to him. I could not quit listening to him. Now I am reviewing other books he has narrated. Just listen to him and you will also be addicted to his voice.
Yes, it was. It was approx 10 hour book. I have never listened to a book that long. It was an all nighter and part of the morning. I had the luxury of not working today so I could finishing listening to Rich Orlow's engaging voice.
Be sure to listen to this book. You won't regret it.

"A gem of a story, extremely well told"
Engrossing, nostalgic, and well-written. But just three words don't really do this fine novel justice.
I chose Ordinary Grace because I thought it sounded a little like Boy's Life by Robert McCammon, which is another absolutely wonderful novel. It is like that, at least on the surface – a story about a 13-year-old boy who lives in a small town in Minnesota, and how several deaths, including a murder, affect him and his family. But it's a much larger story than that; it's about family, love, life, God, and "God's awful grace" (a quote from Aeschylus), plus ordinary grace as referred to in the title. It's not a story about religion, though.
Rich Orlow was the perfect choice as narrator; his flat, Midwestern accent is perfect, and he gives each character – males, females, and a wide variety of ages – distinctive and very believable voices.
It's possible that a movie could be made of this book, but I'm doubtful any film would be anywhere as good, so I'm content if no one makes one.
I absolutely loved this Audible title -- perhaps more than if I had simply read it -- and I will definitely listen to it again at some point.. Highly recommended.
"Amazingly captivating and eye-opening."
Transformative, gracious and enlightened.
The stuttering younger brother with his down to earth honesty and sensibility.
The fathers sermon after the death of his daughter.
The reader did a magnificent job distinguishing the different characters and lending honesty to the description of people in distress and confusion without ever over dramatizing any one person or event. Well done.
It was a pleasure to listen to.
Myst/thrillers and ✨fun fantasies✨are my favorites but always open for a good story.
"Beautifully written....Wow"
A triple mystery and a tragedy that surround a Minnesota family in 1961. A Methodist minister, a Mother who does her best to give her children every opportunity, a beautiful young Daughter getting ready to set off on her own and two young Brothers who are best buddies and full of angst. They live in a small town where everyone knows everyone's business and the mysterious death of a young boy sets all in motion.
This story is a mind provoking reminder of how everything that happens shapes and changes our lives no matter how good or bad, small or large...... Some occurrences change us drastically over night, those life altering changes that none of us, fortunately/unfortunately, are immune too.
The author and narrator made this a wonderful listening experience. This was the first Krueger book I have listened to and it was a touching, rich, beautifully written story. Wonderful to see this story through the eyes of a young man on the verge of manhood and all of the revelations that come along with that metamorphosis.
Rich Orlow does a wonderful job with all the voices of a wide assortment of characters. His pace and timing are right on. One of the better ones in my opinion and I will look for him in other works.
A great mystery. All things have their time: birth, death and rebirth.
"Far from an Ordinary Thriller"
Yes I would happily recommend this novel. It's extremely well written with good quality characterisations that hold your interest and really make you care about what happens to each of them.
The over-whelming impact on the Drum family of the various incidents that unfold. Tremendous writing.
Sensitively read and nothing 'over the top' which would have ruined the delicate balance of this novel
The burden put onto the father of the Drum family. I'm not a believer in the religious sense and at times it could have been so easy to feel an edge of impatience taking over, but it's so well written that finally I just couldn't fail to be moved by his stoicism.
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this novel. The descriptive passages devoted to both the locations, era and characters made it a memorable experience. There are no particularly gripping moments or shocking revelations here but taken as a 'whole' this is a murder mystery that will not fail to grip you and will stay with you long after you've finished it. For me, that's the test of a good book.
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.

I worked at SUPERVALU
Strong management team, solid leadership, empoyee feedback solicited on a regular basis, feel like part of team, leaders are accountable, training and career development efforts are top notch, not afraid to invest in their people, salaries are very fair. Even though their stock has plummeted, so have many other companies in the Grocery industry. I think SUPERVALU will continue to be in the top 3, good or bad economy.
A large company can come with beauracy, decision making processes can be slow at times. They are perhaps a little too focused on the number of projects put through the pipeline, rather than on the quality and ROI of those projects. With Paul Singer as CIO this will most likely change for the better though.
Always treat employees with respect and dignity.

Senior IT leadership has been trying to move as many jobs as possible to India -- despite significant differences in competency and quality, employees are often made to feel . Beyond IT, it sometimes seems as though there is such an intense, relentless promotion of certain initiatives and departments within the company, and this can often come at the expense of other areas that are almost if not equally as important.Advice to ManagementAdvice
1) Don't forget where the company came from, and recognize that more than one segment of the business can be an asset. 2) Don't fall into the trap of thinking that well educated US-based employees (often with graduate degrees and many years of experience) can be replaced by someone in India with 1-2 year. They can't, and you risk driving away some of the company's best human assets.Doesn't RecommendApproves of CEO

Selfie Sticks Banned at Coachella + Lollapalooza
Major music festivals Coachella and Lollapalooza will not allow selfie sticks into their shows.
Major music festivals Coachella and Lollapalooza will not allow selfie sticks into their shows.
Today (Jan. 6), the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival announced its 2015 lineup.
The second day of Coachella 2014's second weekend (follow that?) pretty much featured the same lineup as the previous weekend.
Jimmy Kimmel Live sent a reporter to this year's Coachella Music and Arts Festival outside of Los Angeles to talk with fans about some of the "lesser-known acts." It's so hipster cool to listen to obscure bands. It makes some people feel like they're in an exclusive group of innovative ears. This hilarious segment and successful experiment shows what length some young fans will go not to be left out:
Coachella 2013's first weekend finished Sunday (April 14) with a virtual sandstorm. As high winds and chilly weather overtook Indio, Calif., it seemed for a time the festival might not conclude as scheduled, but the Red Hot Chili Peppers braved the gusts and gave the most intense audience of the entire weekend something to remember, as they energetically delivered hit after hit in the closest thing to a greatest-hits set we saw all weekend. Scroll down to read about other notable performances and see exclusive photos of day three of Coachella 2013.
For most fans, Coachella 2013 got off to a rocky start, as security lines backed up under scorching sunlight, but concertgoers quickly put that problem behind them as they walked onto polo fields filled with bands, rappers, folk singers, DJs and some really bizarre people dressed up like hippos. We saw a lot for one day, so here's a quick recap of the highlights, lowlights and just regular lights.
I've been to Indio, California and it kinda sucks. ANY OTHER TIME OF YEAR than NOW. That's when Coachella goes down and the 2013 lineup is right here. Also, we've got important info on what to do when you get busted for drugs at the festival.
Tickets for the first weekend of Coachella 2013 sold out 15 minutes after going on sale yesterday (Jan. 29), the L.A. Times reports. And it's easy to see why: The lineup, announced last week, includes the Red Hot Chili Peppers, the xx, Postal Service, Blur, Vampire Weekend, Sigur Ros, Modest Mouse and many more.
I've been to Indio, California and it kinda sucks. ANY OTHER TIME OF YEAR than April. That's when Coachella goes down and the 2013 lineup has been announced. Also, we've got important info on what to do when you get busted for drugs at the festival.
Since the death of Levon Helm last Thursday (drummer of the Band), musicians all over have been paying tribute to the Rock legend. A couple Moose artists teamed up to do their part over the weekend at Coachella. Check out The Black Keys and John Fogerty covering "The Weight", one of the Band's most well-known songs and one of the few on the legendary 'Music From Big Pink' record on which Helm sang lead.
We all expect rock stars to evolve musically AND physically, right? Who hasn't benefited from a good make-over? But Grace Potter might be at the top of the "I Always Had Crazy Talent But Not Capped Teeth and Blonde Hair" list. See what I mean here:

NEW YORK — On the busy commercial strip along Knickerbocker Avenue in Brooklyn's Bushwick neighborhood are all the shops one might expect to find in a poor area branded a "food desert": two 99-cent stores, a check-cashing center and plenty of pizza and fried chicken joints. But thanks to Alfonso Victor and Elena Ferreira, there's also an oasis of fresh fruits and vegetables. Just about every weekday for the past three years, even in the depths of winter, the couple has set up a produce cart here, piled high with pineapples, tangerines, lettuce, tomatoes and specialty items for the area's Latino community, such as plantains, yucca, hot peppers and cilantro.
Victor, from Mexico, and Ferreira, from the Dominican Republic, are two of more than 500 vendors who participate in New York's Green Cart program, which puts fruit and vegetable carts on the streets in low-income areas with high rates of obesity and diet-related diseases. Though green carts are only one of several city strategies designed to encourage consumption of more-healthful food, there is early evidence it is working: In New York's high-poverty neighborhoods, the percentage of adults who said they ate no fruits or vegetables during the previous day is slowly dropping, from 19 percent in 2004 to 15 percent in 2010.

Interesting facts about Ocean City Maryland
- The boardwalk benches from the Coast Guard Museum north to Thrasher's all face the boardwalk. From the Northside of the Pier Building (Ripley's) to 4th Street there are benches facing both the boardwalk and the ocean. From 4th Street North to the end of the boardwalk all of the benches face the boardwalk; the sea wall runs from 4th Street North and is about hip high; therefore sitting on a bench facing the ocean; you would not be able to see very much. At one time the benches from 4th Street North were flip back benches; meaning the back could move so that you could sit facing either direction; however in order to make the seating on the boardwalk more aesthetically pleasing per the Boardwalk Development Association those benches were done away with and a more decorative bench was used that does not give you the ability to face either direction.
