The Public Information Act
Under Texas law, each person is entitled to complete information about the affairs of government and the official acts of public officials and employees at all times, unless otherwise expressly provided by law.
"Public information" means information that is collected, assembled, or maintained under a law or ordinance or in connection with the transaction of official business: (1) by a governmental body; or (2) for a governmental body and the governmental body owns the information or has a right of access to it. The term is defined in Government Code Section 552.002.
The TCEQ is committed to upholding the Public Information Act (PIA) and to ensuring public access to its records. All agency staff are obligated to abide by the TCEQ's Operating Policy and Procedure (Requests for Public Information ) regarding requests for information under the Texas Public Information Act.
TCEQ Public Information Officer
For purposes of this subchapter, a written request includes a request made in writing that is sent to the office of public information, or the person designated by that officer, by electronic mail or facsimile transmission.
The executive director of the TCEQ, as the chief administrative officer for the agency, is the public information officer (PIO). The executive director has designated the customer services center manager to act on his behalf as public information officer.

In addition, if the agency cannot produce the requested public information within ten business days, the agency must respond in writing to the requestor stating that fact and setting a reasonable time when the information will be available for inspection or duplication.

Great alternative
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
I'm really psyched on these. They're a great alternative to a normal bike shoe. I ride alot in the city, and am on and off my bike. These are very comfortable and easy to walk in. The cleat still hits the ground when you walk, but the shape of the sol makes them very easy to walk in. Get the same size in these that you wear in Vans classics.

Chrome Midway Pro Shoe - Men's
Good SPD city shoe
The shoe is great. It has enough flexibily for when you're off the bike. Is good to walk around, but not for walking the entire day! I change the insole to get more cushioning (I recommend you to do that is you want to walk around for more than an hour like me). The material blocks very well the wind, and that's something I like since I'm in Canada and where I live the tempetures drop down to -20 easily.
The only bad experience was using UPS! They charged me 30 dollars of taxes when they suppose to charged me 10 dollars! So if you're planning to shipped to Canada, use the USPS option.
Hate this Comany, Dangerous Product
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
There shoes are dangerous! CAUTION DO NOT BUY THESE SHOES. There is not enough rubber around the cleat so the slippery metal cleat - whether your ride Shimano SPD or Crank Brothers - pokes out especially when you walk! I hurt myself badly walking in these shoes across a smooth concrete slab, suddenly I lost traction and did a split! OUCH!
This upset me particularily because the salesperson in the Chrome store swore up and down that the cleat would not click. This turned out to be the first of many times Chrome was casual with the truth.
I tried to return the shoes but the online "Customer Service" told me they're un-returnable once the cleat was installed! Furthermore, she said, I can't mail the shoes back, have to return to the store in person. (This was hard because I bought them on a visit to SF.) After the return period, I went to the store to complain, and they were beyond rude. The salesperson said he'd ask a manager, then he walked around the store ignoring me for fifteen minutes. I asked him, did you get a manager, and he said, "yeah, she can't help you." WTF? I asked to see the manager who told me their shoes are fine and quoted policy, said she'd need an inventory number to do a swap. I complained about the crummy return/exchange policy, and the manager said most stores only do 10 days returns so I shouldn't complaint? WTF x2?? REI and Patagonia have LIFETIME returns, and Macy's etc. does at least 30. So yeah the shoes suck and if you complain a 20-year-old ornery manager (if you can find her) makes up fake store policies and lies about the competition. I left the shoes in the store, they are worse than nothing, and dealing with the Chrome company is worse than going to the dentist. F MINUS.
if you bought them from backcountry.com, they have unlimited returns.
I bought them directly from the Chrome store. They would not accept the return even with a receipt because I had mounted cleats. Nevermind the fact that I was not able to discover the problem (that the cleat extended beyond the rubber) until the cleat was mounted...

With a personal score to settle, Captain Kirk leads a manhunt to a war-zone world to capture a one man weapon of mass destruction. As our heroes are propelled into an epic chess game of life and death, love will be challenged, friendships will be torn apart, and sacrifices must be made for the only family Kirk has left: his crew.

Beauty Quotes and Sayings
True beauty is not related to what color your hair is or what color your eyes are. True beauty is about who you are as a human being, your principles, your moral compass.
Beauty isn't about having a pretty face. It's about having a pretty mind, pretty heart and pretty soul.
Intelligence will never stop being beautiful.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from her eyes because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.
To all the girls that think you're fat because you're not size zero, you're beautiful one. It's society who's ugly.
– Marilyn Monroe
See, when you go to heaven, God won't ask you how beautiful you are. He'll ask how beautiful is your heart.
Your skin isn't paper, don't cut it.
Your face isn't a mask, don't cover it.
Your size isn't a book, don't judge it.
Your life isn't a film, don't end it.
You are beautiful.
To me, beauty is about being comfortable in your own skin. It's about knowing and accepting who you are.
There is beauty in simplicity.
To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don't need to be accepted by others. You need to be accept yourself.
Beauty is not being beautiful on the outside but on the inside.
Don't forget to love yourself.
You're beautiful no matter what anybody thinks.
Every one has his own beauty.
Pretty is as pretty does!
You are a beautiful cupcake in a world full of muffins.
You're a pot of gold at the end of an amazing rainbow.
Beautiful is a person whose outside and inside world are in great concord, camaraderie and concert.
– Anuj Somany
It's the heart not the face that matters.
A real beauty is not that which has a polish all over the body but the natural skin and pure heart.
Don't judge a person for their beauty there may be ugly thoughts inside.

Smith PIVLock V90 Max Sunglasses $0.00
Reviews & Community
What do you think of the
Smith PIVLock V90 Max Sunglasses
? Share a...
Great Glasses
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
I purchased the PIVLock V90's about a year and a half ago. They are one of the better pair of glasses I've used. The rimless frames are great for cycling as there is no obstruction while looking through the upper section of the frames. However, on long descents, my eyes get a bit dry due to the wind. My thought was to purchase these to see if it made a difference, and it does, even if only at times, slightly. My eyes feel better and my contacts aren't as irritating.
The weight is light and very easy to take on and off while riding
Trevor J
A Trusted Friend
Nothing but good things to say about any pair of PIVLocks from Smith. I've owned these glasses for 3 years, using them for everything from cycling, trail running, x-country skiing, backcountry touring, or just cruising in the car on the way home from the mountain.
My favorite features are the easy to use interchangeable pivot lens system, large lens for eye protection when cycling, comfort-ability and durability.
Every now and again you come across a piece of gear that just goes everywhere with you, lasts forever and is something you just couldn't survive without. For me, these glasses fall into that category. Seriously couldn't do what I do without them!
Perfect for cycling, a bit large for casual wear
For their purpose, these shades are perfect. Like all (most) of the other reviews, I bought these primarily for cycling. I was initially turned off by the super-large lenses (compared to my last shades) and the rather noticeably bright orange color, but I have since grown to love these and use them exclusively. While too large and sporty for casual wear, they are IDEAL for riding both road and dirt.
Key points:
- Humungous, unobstructed field of view for complete protection and easy visibility when in the drops
- Incredibly lightweight, major comfort benefit
- Secure but not-too-tight fit, I initially thought these might be too loose for me (large head) as they don't have a vise-like grip, but they haven't budged even when downhilling some pretty rough routes. It's a good balance of squeeze and friction that is almost unnoticeable, but extremely comfortable
- Good range of lenses have you covered for sunlight, dusk/overcast, and night/any other time you want clear lenses for protection
- Easily swappable and cleanable lenses - the lack of frame makes them easier to wipe clean, the pivlock tech is actually not a gimmick, works super well.
- Unexpected plus - very nice case, albeit quite large
Highly recommended as long as you're not going for casual style. I even think they look pretty slick on the bike. Also, for the Chainlove price, these are more than worth it.
Troy Barry
Coverage and Comfort
I used these frames all season last year whether I was training on the road or in the dirt and found I often forgot they were even on my cranium. Excellent coverage from wind, dirt, and dust when on the trail (especially following other riders). I found that the are durable and comfortable for all day riding. I really like the interchanging lenses for varying light conditions and the fact that the mechanism locks the temples to the lenses without scratching them and they are solidly secure. The frames with lenses are super light weight and come with a couple of different nose pieces to fit various face shapes. GR8 design here. Get them and you will never wear another set of riding shades.
Ride ON
Cru Jones
Favorite Glasses Ever
I have a few pairs of these and I love them. The range of view is amazing and they are all lens so there is no frame to get in your way. Great coverage, light weight, multiple lens options, what more could you want?
Great product, just which they were more moisture resistant. Sweat and rain dont bead off very well.
Della Freudeman
Can they put prescription in the lenses....
Can they put prescription in the lenses. I ride a H_D motorcycle and I finally found a pair of glasses that match my bike.
Arthur Debowski
There is indeed a prescription adapter to the Pivlock v90 http://www.smithoptics.com/products/#/Accessories/Accessories+Sunglass/Pivlock+Rx+Adaptor/view/
Great Glasses
I was skeptical about the durability of the frames at first, but once I realized that they are actually quite durable my skepticism is gone. They are great for rides. The lens selection is great, especially the clear option for darker rides or if there are rainy conditions. They stay in place and once you get used to the frameless lenses, its real tough to go back to glasses with frames in your field of vision.
Highly recommend them.
Best pair of frameless I've owned
Superb clarity in all 3 lenses - clear / rose / dark-tinted. The rose lenses are really something special...now I understand where the term 'rose colored glasses' came from....they do make the world a warmer place to live. Rose lenses are good for dawn, dusk or cloudy rides. I had bad experiences with Bolle frameless glasses due to cracking around the nosepiece & earpieces (after the 4th warranty replacement, I quit), so I was hesitant to try these. I've owned the v90max for 2 months, ride daily, and so far nothing ill to report...minimal fogging, ideal coverage for my larger face, very good at blocking the wind so I can focus on the road, complete stability and light weight. So easy to swap lenses, once you get over the worry of snapping the lens or earpieces. Time will tell if lens cracking problems develop, but for now I am very satisfied with the Smith v90max
Coming up on a year of use now. One set of lenses has cracked on both sides where the ear pieces attach, but they are still operational & wearable. I have had no other negative issues. I'm going to send the cracked lens back to Smith for warranty replacement (which is lifetime) and see how it goes. I do not regret this purchase in any way
Faster, safer
I have been looking for a set of glasses like this for a LONG time. I've owned a variety from most major sport optic manufacturers, and this is the first pair I've been totally happy with. The biggest thing for me is the rimless design above the eyebrows. When descending in the drops, I don't have to compensate for looking around the usual rim that you find on sunglasses. In the past, I would either slightly pull down the glasses or have to really kink my neck to get a full field of vision. The lack of rim on the Pivlocks is a fricken miracle. The lens swap out is so fast and there is no worry of scratching the optic like on other designs. These vent exceptionally well and the only time they fog is in the elevator after my commute...but as soon as I start walking, it clears up. Highly, highly recommended. Especially if you have a big fat face like mine!
I see a lot of great reviews for the V90...
I see a lot of great reviews for the V90 Max when it comes to riding, but how are they for running? I spend most of my time running trails. Do they stay in place with the added movement of running?
Yes, they do. I use mine primarily for running, and I have never had a problem. They have a really good wrap-around fit that holds them in place.
Ian Burnett
A little big for most
Great riding shades! Really easy to use the PIVlock system, makes for a fast easy changing of lens. The max are a little to big for most. I prefer the smaller lens.
Steve Brain
Use this for mountain biking and road biking. Being in the Pacific Northwest I really appreciate the range of lenses - night rode with the clear lenses, used the rose in the winter and switching (finally) to the sunny day ones. Probably the simplest lens change system I've used.

Great looking sunglasses
Tommy Nankervis
Smith PIVLock Sunnies
These are awesome sunnies. The Lenses are fantastic, and you get THREE pairs of them! Clear, pink, and dark. They are so light, and so clear to look through, that you often forget that you are wearing them. I have often started to look for my sunglasses, then realise I am wearing them already. There is no frame to obstruct your vision, so I would say they are a perfect pair of sunglasses for on the bike.
Very innovative way of interchanging lenses too, to minimise frame and maximise vision.

I wear the Oakley Flak Jacket. Anyone know how big the Smith lenses are compared to the Oakleys? I like the frameless concept---it'll save my neck. I'm not sure how these Smith's would be on a woman. Thanks for the help.
Dustin Robertson
The Smith PIVlock will offer much more coverage than the oakley flak jacket. Here is a picture of pro mountain biker Judy Freeman with the PIVlocks.
Mike Midlarsky
The smith lenses on this model are larger without a frame to hold them. They come in 2 different sizes. The v90 max and the regular v90. For a females face, I would recommend the regular v90 over the max. They will provide you with plenty of protection and of course without the neck breaker over the shoulder look!

Thats it right there, does this mean we're going to get Half Life 2? I don't know, I have a steam account with all of the half life 1 based games along with the Half Life 2 silver package and if they started porting these that'd be cool.Responsibilities
+Port Windows-based games to the Linux platform.
I think if they port anything first it may be the Half Life 1 based stuff, since that runs opengl already and would be the easiest, however, i'm pretty sure the Source engine is capable of rendering in opengl right now.
That'd be funny though if they ported the Half-Life 1 based games first, how many years ago did we want this? But I guess now with the Steam platform and all the games ported to that, now they can port Steam and all the games to Linux.
Does this mean they'll actually do it? Maybe, maybe things are coming together for Linux Gaming. All I know is if Valve gives out Linux versions of their games, that is going to be a HUGE boost to Linux Gaming.

Arizona AG proposes arming one educator per school
PHOENIX -- Arizona Attorney General Tom Horne proposed a plan Wednesday to allow one educator in each school to carry a gun after they receive free firearms training from law enforcement.
The proposal comes less than two weeks after a gunman fatally shot 20 first-graders and six educators during a Dec. 14 rampage at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.
Horne said the program, which would first need legislative action to amend state law, is aimed at reducing the risk of similar shootings in Arizona.
Under the plan, which Horne said is backed by sheriffs in Pinal, Mohave and Apache counties, each public school could designate a principal or educator to keep the gun in a secure, locked location at the facility. It would limit gun-carriers to one per school and would be a voluntary program.
However, Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu came out with his own, much broader plan on Wednesday aimed at training multiple educators per school to carry guns, noting his proposal and Horne's were ``the difference between putting your toe in a pool or jumping in.''
``And they should not be in a locked box these weapons,'' Babeu said. ``Our schools are not as safe as we think they are, and we need to do something about it.''
Some schools around the state already have an armed law enforcement presence through the so-called school resource officer program, but budget constraints have cut it back.
``The ideal solution would be to have an armed police officer in each school,'' Horne said, echoing calls from the National Rifle Association since the Connecticut shootings.
The next best thing, he said, is to arm an educator, comparing that proposal to allowing pilots to carry guns after the 9/11 terror attacks.
Arizona House Minority Leader Chad Campbell, D-Phoenix, called the plan ``a horrible, horrible idea.''
``Teachers are not cops. Teachers are not military. Their job is to teach our kids, not to be worried about how to defend themselves in a tactical situation.'' Campbell said Wednesday, adding that he will instead push for additional funding to fully restore the school resource officer program.
``That's where we need to focus our money,'' Campbell said. ``The last thing you want is a bunch of people with guns at schools making situations worse.''
Babeu said his plan would focus on arming as many educators as possible on a volunteer basis, even those who work at schools where a law enforcement officer already is present. Horne's plan would limit gun-toting teachers to schools where there is no armed presence.
``If a bunch of teachers brought guns to school, I'm fearful the kids could get access to them,'' Horne said.
Apache County Sheriff Joe Dedman said the issue needs to be studied more before authorities approach the Legislature.
``I'm not ruling out any of the ideas,'' he said.
Trish Carter, a spokeswoman for Mohave County Sheriff Tom Sheahan, said he was ``on board'' with Horne's idea, but noted it was too soon to comment or offer specific details.
Currently, only Utah and Kansas allow people with concealed weapons permits to carry guns in schools. In the wake of the Connecticut shootings, more than 200 teachers in Utah signed up for free concealed-weapons training being offered Thursday by the Utah Shooting Sports Council.

I think Maria could do it if she improves on clay, which she has started doing. She has some chance at the other 3 slams. Venus or Serena conceivably could. I could not see Kim, Justine, or Mary, ever winning Wimbledon. Could not see Davenport winning the French.
You can't see Davenport winning the French but you think Maria can? I guess anything is possible.
That's true but, the FRENCH!! The other WTA players that have been on the tour for a while have still not mastered the clay courts [a few exceptions of course].
Interesting points, Kittens. On the women's side, surface isn't quite the equalizer (dubious term, I know) that it is on the men's side. It's funny because even though you think of many top players on both sides doing worse on clay, it still means a variety of winners. However, it seems like every woman has one that she wouldn't win. I couldn't see Lindsay or Maria winning the French, I couldn't see Kim or Justine winning Wimbledon, etc. But with the right draw and a couple injuries, who knows. Lindsay has reached the semis at the French and Justine has reached the finals at Wimbledon.FYI, Since 2000, this is how many different women have won each slam:Australian: 4French: 5Wimbledon: 3USO: 5

Plantar fasciitis (PLAN-tur fas-e-I-tis) is one of the most common causes of heel pain. It involves pain and inflammation of a thick band of tissue, called the plantar fascia, that runs across the bottom of your foot and connects your heel bone to your toes.
Plantar fasciitis commonly causes stabbing pain that usually occurs with your very first steps in the morning. Once your foot limbers up, the pain of plantar fasciitis normally decreases, but it may return after long periods of standing or after getting up from a seated position.
Plantar fasciitis is particularly common in runners. In addition, people who are overweight and those who wear shoes with inadequate support are at risk of plantar fasciitis.

The Plot: Mia (Jane Levy), a young woman struggling with sobriety, heads to a remote cabin with her brother and a group of friends, where the discovery of a Book of the Dead leads to danger and horror.
Evil Dead is directed by Fede Alvarez and stars Jane Levy, Shiloh Fernandez and Jessica Lucas. The film is written by Sam Raimi (original screenplay)and Fede Alvarez.

While Oracle is most often criticized since their acquisition of Sun Microsystems for shafting the open-source community, in particular for OpenOffice, MySQL, OpenSolaris, and other projects, not everything they do is bad for open-source and Linux. They have VirtualBox, various kernel developers, Chris Mason works for them on Btrfs, etc. They also still employ some graphics developers. One of these developers for some time now has been working on improving the GPU memory management situation in virtualized environments...
MPEG-2, I wonder why? It's so inefficient, no one even stores actual dvd's on their HDD's any longer. One rather transcodes the dvd into xvid or h264 saving a lot of space while retaining pretty much same quality.
Because it is dead technology, it is simpler and easier to implement and probably does not have patent problems. It certainly is a valid project for anybody with interest in developing or learning video hardware acceleration.
However, for practical usage by end users it provides no added benefit and Michael is completely right that is does not merit a separate post. Maybe some of it can be applied to other codecs...
ATSC and QAM still use MPEG2.
It's probably easier to debug problems with the video decoding than using a complicated h.264 video.
Michael didn't mention this, but the reason it was rewritten was because the old one was GPL licensed and that had to go before the next Mesa release.
Actually, I do simply rip the dvds, and leave them as isos. You get degraded quality with transcoding unfortunately, and while you can transcode a dvd with near imperceptible quality difference I don't know of a way to automate that since each dvd would need different options. That is something I really wish encoders did a better job with.
Yes it usually gives good results, but if you set it for good enough quality you can easily end up with a 4GB transcode, and at that point I'd rather just have the easier to decode and original mpeg2.
to have really good quality at significently lower bitrate you have to set alot of custom options. If you read pretty much any of the documentation they'll say the same.
Transcode some video with certain settings.
Look at it.
Change the settings.
Obviously there are things you can say generally about certain types of content (animation being a classic example), but that is not generally the case.
Of course, if you aren't planning on watching the material on a large screen that is already doing upscaling (maybe a phone or something), then the artifacts added aren't a big deal, and the smaller size counts for alot more.

Best shedding rake! I have a lab mix and the shedding never ends. I've been using this for 4 years and it is the best tool I have found, regular dog brushes don't compare. Very durable, shorter teeth on one side longer on the other. It's a little stiff to flip the rake but manageable. I usually keep it on the longer side anyways.

Our drug rehabilitation program succeeds where others fail. Do you want to know why?
Why is our program such a revolutionary success in the addiction field? How can we offer an all-inclusive program that is not based on time, while others are 30 days? It's because we know how to treat addiction permanently. Drugs are actually stored in the body as toxins and get released in tiny amounts throughout a person's daily activities. When they are released into the bloodstream, the brain is triggered and subconsciously the person craves more drugs, even while trying to stay sober. The person is either miserable off drugs or relapses. We address this situation using our own sauna detoxification program, where we clean out these drugs and toxic residuals for good. We then provide an empowering and comprehensive program of Life Skills and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address mental aspects of addiction. Our graduates literally have a clean slate and a new life when they are done with the program, along with a Discharge Plan that is thorough and holds the client accountable. Why else could we offer a type of guarantee to take someone back if they relapse out of treatment? We are confident in our program!
Why our program works
Scientific studies and medical autopsies have proven that toxic substances (street drugs, medicinal drugs, alcohol, pesticides, etc.) remain in a person's body long after they stop using drugs. When an individual ingests toxic substances, the body's natural reaction is to remove what isn't used. One of the main functions of the liver is detoxification. However, when toxic substances are taken in excess, the liver is unable to filter all of it. The remaining toxins are stored mainly in the fat tissues.
Let's say that at a later date the individual burns some fatty tissue (by means of exercise, stress, increased heart rate, etc.). These toxins, which are still stored in the fat tissue, then get released back into the blood stream. With that, they travel to the brain, and give the individual a very slight reaction to the substance; not enough to get them intoxicated, but enough that the brain can perceive it, whether the addict is consciously aware of it or not. The individual could simply be walking on the beach and "for no reason", find themselves walking to the drug dealer, almost without them being aware of it.
To parallel how this works, let's say we give a small child just one lick of an ice cream cone. What happens? They want more! Now if you give a recovering addict a small sample of a drug, what happens? They want more drugs! THIS is the anatomy of physical drug cravings. The solution is extraordinarily simple; remove the toxic substances from the fat tissue!
In our residential drug rehabilitation program, we deliver a unique process which expels these exact toxins. Through a regimen of exercise, vitamins, minerals, oils and with periods of sweating in a dry heat sauna, the addict is detoxified of toxic substances. The end result is: A CLEANSED BODY, FREE OF DRUG AND ALCOHOL CRAVINGS!
Additional benefits include being able to sleep well without anxiety and wake up feeling energized and refreshed, mental alertness, fewer aches and pains and a much improved sense of well-being. Call today for a free assessment: 800-556-8885
Success from Sauna Detoxification
"Prior to coming here I had brief periods of clean-time. However, I still felt run-down. I was tired all the time. I was depressed. I felt hopeless. I knew the years of drug use had taken a major toll on my body, and I was convinced that I was a lost cause. I truly believed that I would never feel normal again. I only felt 'normal' while high.
Then someone very close to me went through the program. They called and raved about the detoxification process. They convinced me to give it a shot.
Within five days of the sauna detoxification program I started sleeping 8 hours a night (I wasn't sleeping more than 5 hours before I started). Then two weeks into it I noticed a drastic change; I realized I hadn't thought about getting high for over a week! Prior to this, I couldn't go five minutes without thinking of drugs.
After actually completing the entire detoxification program things kept getting better. The drug cravings are completely gone! I also noticed I am stable and not feeling a roller-coaster of emotions anymore. I am happy all the time. I am excited to live. I know I will never use drugs again. Not because I "shouldn't" do them; but because I have no desire to do them! My body feels like it did before I even started using.
The detoxification program truly gave me a NEW LIFE!" -A.R.
No Meetings! Instead, Learn Life Skills for Practical Application and Exercises that Apply to Your Life.
For many addicts, a 12-Step group meeting is not a pleasant experience. People are forced to share painful moments in a group setting with strangers. While the idea of support for addiction is encouraging, meetings are rarely successful at completely changing someone's life. Hearing about shocking and tragic stories or terrible things that happened to people while on drugs or as an alcoholic can raise awareness to the dangers of drugs, but it does not serve to provide fundamental education about how a person becomes a drug addict and how they can overcome their problems and learn to live a different life.
No one decided one day to become a drug addict. There was a series of events that led a person down the road. These could be trouble in school, family issues, physical health problems, difficulties dealing with low self-confidence or with peer-pressure, or anything else. Everyone is different, but patterns are usually similar. Spotting these events is the key to understanding how to make different decisions, and how to get out of the trap of addiction.
Our Life Skills courses are done in a classroom-style environment and because of this, our clients are called "students". They are not considered drug addicts trying to learn how to avoid drugs. They are students of life who are learning how the world works, how society operates and how honest, hard-working citizens with pride and a clean heart can live a happy and productive life. They clean up their past wrongdoings, take responsibility and move on. They set new goals and learn the barriers, dangers and temptations that may lie along the path to those goals. When a person is truly honest and productive, they are happier and much less likely to have any desire to do drugs, as they already know drugs will destroy their goals.
"It was so nice not to have to call myself an addict anymore. I realized that people here rarely talk about drugs. Instead, we talk about where we went wrong, how to fix it, and how to live a better life. I've never had so much fun being sober or learned so much about myself. This program is the best thing that ever happened to me! – C.T.
Alternative Treatment with 45 Years of Proven Success
Our Program is NOT a 12-Step program and does not view addiction as an incurable disease. Addiction results from an inability to effectively deal with life and using drugs becomes a way to deal with problems, even if that problem is something as minor as "how to stay up to get homework done" or "how can I overcome my self-confidence issues at a party"? When one takes drugs as a solution for problems, and then gets to the point where they must take more drugs because they cannot deal with coming off drugs, they are addicted. However, addiction is NOT and incurable disease and it CAN be overcome, as our tens of thousands of graduates since 1966 can attest to.
Effective Aftercare-Support Program From Certified Counselors
One of the most necessary components to successful handling of drug and alcohol addiction is that the individual has plenty of support; during and after treatment. We are staffed with several levels of Registered Addiction Specialists (a national accreditation) who have vast experience in the field of alcoholism and drug addiction treatment. These counselors work with each and every individual enrolled in our program on a continuous basis, as well as provide support to the family when needed.
After completing the entire program, we deliver an intensive aftercare program, called a Graduate Assurance Plan. During this crucial transitional step in the rehabilitation process, the individual is in constant contact with a Graduate Counselor. The relationship continues at least twice a week after the graduate has left the program and is out in the real world. We will ensure the graduate is sticking to the plan and making progress towards his or her goals set during the program. The Graduate Counselor should be consulted before making any major decisions or associating with anyone who might be a threat to the sobriety of the graduate. This is to ensure that any possible problems are identified and addressed before they become too big to handle. Don't wait, call now for an assessment: 800-556-8885
All-Inclusive Stay for One Set Price
Not every person's recovery from alcoholism or drug addiction is the same. As basic as this seems, it is often overlooked in the drug rehabilitation field. With that, one finds programs which have a set amount of time for treatment (28 Days, 60 Days, 90 Days, etc.). Once the addict's time is up, it's "time to go," regardless of where the individuals are in their treatment.
We allow the individual to stay for as long as it takes to complete their entire treatment program, at NO EXTRA cost. The entire program is usually completed within 3 to 6 months, however no one is ever told to leave because their "time is up." The cost of our program is comparable to what is a typical cost of a 28 day program, but the value is immeasurably better.
Our Program is all-inclusive; meaning for one set cost we provide:
Drug-free withdrawal detoxification under 24 hour staff supervision to handle the acute withdrawal symptoms, (medical detoxification is not included if medically necessary)
Lodging, excellent meals (see pictures of our food) and snacks
All steps of the treatment program from Day 1 to graduation day.
High quality vitamins and nutritional supplements to be taken during the program
Facility amenities such as laundry, exercise and recreational facilities.
Our fantastic Aftercare-Support program once the graduate leaves treatment.
Our Program is so Successful That We Offer an Unprecedented Guarantee
Our confidence in the ability of our program to create drug and alcohol free individuals is so strong that we offer a type of graduate "guarantee". If, while actively participating in and meeting the guidelines of the aftercare program, the individual relapses to drugs or alcohol, they may return to us for a review program at one of our facilities for up to 30-day FREE OF CHARGE. You must call for details on this offer.
Why would we make this offer? Does it not make terrible business sense to take people back for free? Also, why offer an All-Inclusive program in an industry as volatile as drug rehabilitation? Is this not a costly and expensive way to help people? Aside from generally caring about our clients and wanting them to succeed, there is one very good reason:
One of the Few Remaining Nonprofit Drug Rehabs
Over the past decade many drug rehabs have switched from being a "Non-Profit" to now running as a "For-Profit" business. A for-profit business has owners, partners and share-holders (people who own a part of that particular business and receive funds based off profits the business makes). By definition, the purpose of a for-profit company is to generate as much profits as possible for its partners or shareholders. If it generates a better profit to run a 30 day program, that's what is done. If it makes better business sense to "nickel and dime" people for every item or amenity they want, that's what happens. We aren't saying that just because a drug rehabilitation organization is for-profit that it is necessarily bad. However, one would have to be blind to see that this can be seen as a conflict of interest when it comes to whether treatment or profit is the most important factor.
A non-profit, by law, must invest their profits back into the organization or use them for other public benefit purposes such as harm reduction and community outreach. This is the way we have always operated since the program began in 1966 (in 1992 at this location). Besides our drug rehabilitation program, we deliver free drug education lectures to schoolchildren and adults, as well as partner with many national agencies in helping keep kids off drugs. We are here because we want to help.

Fantagraphics Books to Publish In Case We Die, a Novel by Danny Bland | |
Written by Eric Reynolds | Filed under press, Danny Bland, Coming Attractions | 29 Jan 2013 12:33 PM |
SEATTLE, WA 1/23/13 -- Fantagraphics Books is proud to announce the forthcoming summer 2013 publication of In Case We Die, the first novel by longtime Seattle music figure Danny Bland, which follows a pair of addict outsiders who find themselves locked in the palpable, dizzy grunge-rock drug scene of '90s Seattle. The book will also be supported by a unique audiobook project from Seattle's Local638Records.
It wasn't the pounding headache or the all-too familiar taste of blood in my mouth that woke me that morning, but the stink of cat piss. They all have cats. Cats and bad tattoos and mops of dyed black hair that reek of cigarettes and watermelon Bubblicious. They all have ripped fishnets and dark red lips and Daddy issues.
Both love story and horror story, In Case We Die is a semi-autobiographical and visceral story of love, crime, addiction, redemption and revenge. Bland, a 25-year veteran musician (The Dwarves, Cat Butt, Best Kissers In the World) and road manager (Dave Alvin and the Blasters, The Supersuckers) and longtime Seattlite, brings his own experience to a harrowing tour through Seattle's darkest underground.
"When I first read a draft of In Case We Die, I did it purely as a favor to Rachel [Flotard, proprietor of Local638]," said Fantagraphics Associate Publisher and acquiring editor Eric Reynolds. "Rachel is hard to say no to. But I read it and loved it and actually tried to convince Danny to get an agent, and sell it to a big NY house who could land him a big movie deal. I actively discouraged him from thinking about Fantagraphics. But Danny told me all the reasons he thought that would be a bad idea, and I knew we were kindred spirits. He's shown great faith in us packaging the book he envisions and I'm proud to make that happen, because it's a book I'll be particularly proud of not just as a publisher, but as a Seattlite. It's a quintessentially Seattle novel."
Vulnerable to the high relief of heroin addiction, Bland's characters — Charlie Hyatt and Carrie Finch — are beloved, unapologetic protagonists whose epiphanies are as blinding as their weaknesses. Finch, 21, beautiful and dangerous, drowns out the voices in her head and the consequences of a misled life with electric guitar, booze and petulant misbehavior. Her single abiding faith takes the form of an unlikely savior — 60s psychedelic musician Roky Erikson. At the ripe old age of 28, Hyatt attempts to make sense of the cards he has been dealt; a miserable job, a drug habit he cannot afford and the wildly unstable woman he had chosen to love.
In Case We Die will also exist as a remarkable audio book project to be released by Local638Records [ http://www.local638records.com ]. An exclusive roster of legendary artists, musicians, actors and friends have lent their support and donated their talent by reading and recording chapters of the book including Dave Alvin (Blasters, Knitters), Greg Dulli (Afghan Whigs, Twilight Singers), Duff McKagan (Guns & Roses), Donal Logue (Sons of Anarchy, American Splendor), Blag Dahlia (Dwarves), Wayne Kramer (MC5), Eddie Spaghetti (Supersuckers), John Doe (X, Knitters), Jacob Pitts (actor, Justified), Damien Echols (West Memphis Three), Mark Lanegan (Screaming Trees, Queens of the Stone Age), Rob Delaney (comic, Twitter superstar), Lou Beach (author, artist), Steve Earle (singer, songwriter, actor), Mark Boone Jr. (Sons of Anarchy), Amiee Mann (singer, songwriter, actress), Marc Maron (WTF podcast), John Sinclair (White Panther Party, MC5 manager), Lew Temple (The Devil's Rejects, The Walking Dead), Mark Arm (Mudhoney) and others t.b.a., with a portion of the proceeds benefitting MusicCares, a non-profit organization helping musicians and roadies gain sobriety and obtain medical care.
Two damaged people can balance a seesaw for a long time, even finding the illusion of safety; but when one gets off unannounced, the other will fall. As Finch finds sobriety, her sanity and her relationship with Hyatt falter until an inevitable event brings the two back together a decade later.
In Case We Die will premiere in Seattle this July with a number of local events t.b.a. promoting the release, with a wide release in August.
A Novel by Danny Bland
Hardcover • Summer 2013
"Our anti-hero is floating in a tiny lifeboat made of heroin, graveyard shifts & rock music. His companions are two fabulous women; a bombshell who robs banks & a beautifully pale rock violinist who can barely dodge suicide. ICWD is much funnier & more satisfying than any other junkie rock'n'roll tragedy." – John Doe (X)
"Bland is a brutally funny and bravely honest writer. A perfect guide through the bloodshot streets and desperate bedrooms of the underground wilderness." – Dave Alvin (Blasters)
"In Case We Die is a poetic and elegant journey ... straight to the gutter." – Wayne Kramer (MC5)
"Beautiful, literary redemption." – Exene Cervenka (X)
"A great piece of work — full of filth and heart." - Steve Earle
"A suitably Peckinpah finale. Bravo. It has been like a traveling dream state and sometimes familiar look into the abyss." – Greg Dulli (Afghan Whigs)
"I am a believer in what Bland has to say. He writes with eloquence, candor, darkness, and humor....the good stuff!" – Duff McKagan (Guns N' Roses)
"In Case We Die is a riveting, funny and sometimes tragic story that I couldn't stop reading. It's a tale as beautiful as it is brutal. Addiction, love and music in the seedy underworld of rainy Seattle in the 1990's the prose are so vivid I had to pinch myself to make sure i wasn't back there again. Danny is a modern Charles Bukowski." Mike McCready (Pearl Jam)

A silent therapist can make even the toughest among us squirm. This discomfort occurs when a patient expects a therapy session to follow the social norm. That is, you talk and then I talk. In fact, in a typical social setting, it is a faux pas to hog the conversation. But therapy is NOT a social encounter. In fact, there is nothing social about it. It is a patient-doctor relationship. This means one person has a problem and one person has a solution. The burden is on the patient to say whatever comes to mind about the problem while the doctor/therapist listens for clues on how to solve it.
A conversation going nowhere in a social setting can mean one party is preoccupied, disinterested or simply out of sync with the other person. In therapy, silence means something else entirely. In short, it provides a wealth of information.
Silence gives a therapist just as much information as words. When the silence occurs, how the patient breaks the silence, what the patient is thinking about during the silence and how the silence is broken all give the therapist a better understanding of the patient.
As stated earlier, most patients feel awkward when silence ensues. This awkwardness is another word for stress. Zipping it, therefore, gives the therapist a ringside view as to how a patient handles stress. Does the patient rush to fill the silence, does he get angry with the therapist, does he become silent himself? An astute therapist will watch this play out then put it together for the patient. "I noticed you got anxious when there was a silence between us." The patient may respond, "Yeah. Silence always reminds me of when my dad would take off in his car after an argument with my mother." Now, we have a gem, a new piece of information to focus on that might never have been discovered had we filled the silence with banalities about the weather.
In a similar vein, silence allows a patient to recreate his relationships in the office. This isn't possible if the therapist is a chatty-cathy. Her silence allows the patient to make her into whatever character he unconsciously wishes. The therapist becomes the withholding mother or the distant father or the dead grandparent. Again, the astute therapist will point it out, pursue it and learn from it.
Further, if the therapist talks it breaks the patient's train of thought. Let's say the patient is talking about a problem with his mother (yes, the stereotypical mother problem). If the therapist were to chime in and change the course of the conversation, "hey, if you think your mom was bad listen to what my mom did!" The information the patient was trying to parlay would be lost. Maybe he was going to reveal abuse or another trauma, the opportunity is lost, maybe, regrettably, forever.
So, when your therapist appears "too quiet" understand that she is thinking, watching and listening on your behalf. He is not making out a grocery list, thinking about his fantasy football team or bored. Inevitably, there are stories about the rare therapist who has somehow missed this lesson. They treat the therapy session as a tea party or worse, a therapy session for themselves. In one spectacularly unbelievable story a patient told me that, while crying about a painful experience, his therapist suddenly asked him where he'd bought his tie! In a mind-numbing twist of events some therapists act as if they are the patient. This would be like a surgeon handing a man with acute appendicitis the scalpel and saying "hey buddy, can you stop complaining for a minute and get that little mole off my back there like a good sport?" What a horrible dilemma! Most patients want to oblige their doctors but they also have an underlying sense of how terribly wrong this is. There may be a temporary relief that therapy is imitating the social situation but, most patients eventually see this for what it truly is, an abuse of power.
So, remember, silence in session can reveal valuable information. It's our equivalent of an xray or blood test. We can now see what's going on inside of you. And, you deserve a therapist who can hold his tongue, is more interested in your problems than theirs and understands that treatment goes in only one direction. If you want to chit-chat head to a happy hour. If you want treatment, embrace the therapist who can embrace the awkward silence.
