Video: New Holiday Stacks at Michaels
73 comments:
- Lisa Sc.October 29, 2012 at 12:46 PM
Love them all, but my favorite is the Winter Holiday. I really like the reds and blues together...so pretty!
ReplyDelete The first noel stack is so pretty! I am glad you are bringing back the prints in the Traditional Holiday stack. I purchased this stack last year when it was with the regular colored paper and not the Kraft and just loved the vintage feel to it and wished I would have gotten 2 of them and now I can get another (although it is with the Kraft paper it is still very pretty looking!)

They are so pretty! But loving the Crafty Christmas! Cute Santa and Snowman.
ReplyDelete - Dorina DOctober 29, 2012 at 7:11 PM
Crafty Christmas is wonderful, as are all of the paper stacks. Can't wait to get one, but now it's harder to choose between these and the ones shown earlier this month. Guess that means I need all of them and another cabinet to store paper. Thanks for the wonderful papers.

CONGRATULATIONS to the lucky Blog Hop winners!!!
What fab new Christmas stacks - I can see why it was your favourite video to make Erin :)
My favourite would have to the the Kraft paper stacks, added Crafty Christmas and Traditional Holiday to my letter to Santa!!! Always enjoy your videos, especially with the new packs! I love the ones with the kraft paper, especially the foil and glitter on the Kraft! Here in Phila., we were pretty fortunate with Hurricane Sandy. Lots of other areas were hit much harder, and we hope that they have their power back soon. BethAnnM.

As always ALL of the stacks are super pretty! My favorite though would have to be the First Noel stack. It's simply gorgeous!

Entecavir for chronic hepatitis B: a review. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 18223455 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
Three nucleotide/nucleoside analogs are currently used for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B: lamivudine, adefovir dipivoxil, and entecavir. Lamivudine and adefovir are beneficial for oral administration and safety, but only a few of the patients treated experience a sustained response after therapy withdrawal. Entecavir, a cyclopentyl guanosine analog, is a potent inhibitor of chronic hepatitis B virus DNA polymerase, inhibiting both the priming and elongation steps of viral DNA replication. In phase II and phase III clinical trials, entecavir was found to be superior to lamivudine for all primary end points evaluated in both nucleoside-naive and lamivudine-resistant patients as well as being effective in both HBeAg-positive and HBeAg-negative nucleoside-naive patients. Only one trial has shown evidence of cases of viral resistance to this drug. The approved dosage in treatment-naive patients is 0.5 mg per day orally, whereas in patients who have failed lamivudine therapy or are known to harbor lamivudine-resistant mutants, the approved dosage is 1.0 mg per day. |

Previous post | Bishop of Lucca (1057–1061) |
Other popes named Alexander |
Pope Alexander II (died 21 April 1073), born Anselmo da Baggio,[1] was Pope from 30 September 1061 to his death in 1073.
He was born in Milan of a noble family.[2] As Anselm I, bishop of Lucca, he had been an energetic coadjutor with Hildebrand of Sovana in endeavouring to suppress simony and enforce the clerical celibacy. The papal election of 1061, which Hildebrand had arranged in conformity with the papal decree of 1059 (see Pope Nicholas II), was not sanctioned by the imperial court of Germany. True to the practice observed in preceding papal elections, the German court nominated another candidate, Cadalus, bishop of Parma, who was proclaimed Pope at the council of Basel under the name of Honorius II. He marched to Rome and for a long time threatened his rival's position. At length, however, Honorius was forsaken by the German court and deposed by a council held at Mantua; Alexander II's position remained unchallenged.
In 1065, Pope Alexander II wrote to Béranger, Viscount of Narbonne, and to Guifred, bishop of the city, praising them for having prevented the massacre of the Jews in their district, and reminding them that God does not approve of the shedding of blood. That same year, he admonished Landulf VI of Benevento "that the conversion of Jews is not to be obtained by force."[3] Also in the same year, Alexander called for a crusade against the Moors in Spain.[4][5]
In 1066, he entertained an embassy from the Duke of Normandy Guillaume II, Guillaume le Bâtard,(after his successful invasion of Brittany),[6] (later known as William the Conqueror). The embassy had been sent to obtain his blessing for the Norman conquest of England. This he gave to them, giving them a papal ring, the Standard of St. Peter,[7] and a papal edict to present to the English clergy saying that William was given the papal blessing for his bid to the throne. These favours were instrumental in the submission of the English church following the Battle of Hastings.[citation needed]
Alexander II oversaw the suppression of the "Alleluia" during the Latin Church's celebration of Lent.[8] This is followed to this day, and in the Tridentine rite "Alleluia" is also omitted during the Advent season.
Alexander II was followed by his associate Hildebrand, who took the title of Gregory VII.

Pretty good. It seems to need a lot of salt and I think my head of cabbage was a little big so I had to add too much water. If you could post the size of the cans, that would be awesome! I did like this recipe, I just need to try it again so I can do it properly! All in all it is good & healthy! - 5/20/09
Reply from NOMOREW8TING (2/3/10)
SO SORRY it's taken so long to respond to you. Been a while since I've been on the recipe part of the site & never rcv'd notification of your comment. Anyway,I use standard size cans (14-16oz). The cabbage REALLY cooks down so just barely cover it to begin. Can always add more cans if too much cbbg.
Makes a lot and is very filling! I used: garlic & chili powders, smoked paprika, black pepper, salt, a little ground fennel. The smoke flavor is good. That & the fennel gives it a sausage- flavor. The only change I would make next time is diced tomatoes instead of stewed; they didn't break up. - 9/30/13
I just realized I rated the wrong recipe.I meant to comment on yours.I loved this recipe and have used it twice. I used a little less cabbage and a little more onion and more spices but it is still your recipe.I added a small can of green beans. I took one cup and added chicken broth and made soup. - 10/8/08
Reply from NOMOREW8TING (10/8/08)
I'm so glad you enjoyed it and I love the revisions...will try them myself. This is something my grandmother used to make for us when we were kids. Not only low in cal/fat but also delicious!
Thanks for the comment ~ Debbi

The Division of Medical Toxicology is directed by Dr. Richard Clark, and consists of the San Diego Regional Poison Center and the Medical Toxicology Clinical Services at UCSDMC. The Department of Emergency Medicine assumed responsibility for the Regional Poison Center in 1982. The center had been established in 1972 by HEW as a demonstration project. In January of 1997, four poison centers in California combined their services and formed a coalition now called the California Poison Control System, or the CPCS. The CPCS now covers poison information for both the general public and health care providers for the entire population of California, making it the largest system of its kind in the country. The San Diego Division of the CPCS now handles over 80,000 calls per year from San Diego, Imperial, Orange, San Bernardino, and Riverside Counties. The Medical Director is Dr. Richard Clark, who is board certified in Emergency Medicine and Toxicology. Lee Cantrell, Pharm.D. is the interim operational director. Along with Drs. Binh Ly and Aaron Schneir this group comprises the UCSD Healthcare Toxicology Service.
The Medical Toxicology Clinical Services include the Consulting Service at UCSD Hillcrest and the Admitting Service at UCSD Thornton, both under the direction of Dr. Clark since 1992. These are the only inpatient clinical toxicology services in southern California and perform more than 400 consultations a year on poisoned or envenomated patients. Outpatient referrals are accepted from physicians both in and outside the UCSD Healthcare network, with evaluations performed in the outpatient Toxic Exposures Clinic through the Thornton Hospital. Dr. Clark also conceived and directs the UCSD Fellowship Program in Medical Toxicology that took its first fellow in July 1994.

Publication Title | Ecopolitics XVI Conference: Transforming Environmental Governance for the 21st Century |
Editor | Cassandra Star |
Year Published | 2005 |
Place of publication | Griffith University. Nathan, QLD 4111 |
Publisher | Ecopolitics Association of Australiasia/Centre for governance and public policy, Griffith University |
Abstract | Will corporations help or hinder efforts to achieve sustainable development? This question is addressed by working through the three main kinds of business responses to environmental risks that have been identified by Doyle and McEachern ‐ rejection, accommodation and environmental. This paper links these categories to discursive struggle between neo‐liberalism, weak and strong ecological modernisation respectively using examples from the USA, UK and Australia. It is argued that knowledge and discourses have a significant impact on the stance adopted by firms and on their capacity for change. This in turn has a major effect on the ability of the state to implement environmental policies. These observations are related to the broader concept of reflexive modernisation. |

In part two, DSN asks pharmacists to name their top OTC brand recommendations across 15 core product categories.
As the debate over healthcare reform in the United States rages ŌĆö sometimes palpably so ŌĆö a new report from healthcare market research firm IMS Health indicated that a major shift in drug-spending trends is under way between developed countries like the United States and developing countries.
Part one of the first annual Drug Store News pharmacist-reader survey revealed how quickly the practice of pharmacy is evolving to have a greater emphasis on patient care.
One thing remains unchanged about our readers: Retail clinicians tend to love their jobs. What has changed somewhat over the years is the chief reason retail clinicians seem to like what they do.
Everybody loves a comeback story, and it looks as though the retail pharmacy industry has one of its own in the making as Rite AidŌĆÖs latest earnings report showed another strong quarter for the Camp Hill, Pa.-based chain, which has been steadily growing its sales and narrowing its losses for several quarters already.
In March, The Drug Store News Group in partnership with the Food Marketing Institute co-hosted a special retailer-supplier panel discussion at FMIŌĆÖs annual Health & Wellness Conference in Orlando, Fla. DSN editor Rob Eder moderated a lively roundtable discussion that examined key opportunities to align retailer and supplier strategies to better match the needs of todayŌĆÖs consumers ŌĆö and the moving target that is their definition of health and wellness.
DSN picks the 20 hottest new health and beauty products from the very last NACDS Marketplace show ever
Every year, thousands of new items are launched at retail. Typically, about half of 1% are ever truly successful. The DSN Innov-ies salutes the most innovative new products in health and beauty launched between May 2011 and May 2012 ŌĆö not just a bunch of new flavors and sizes, but the truly unique items that brought real growth to the category.
Recent industry trends surrounding niche brands have elevated the role that business development organizations, master brokers, regional brokers and sales and marketing consultants play in helping to bring niche brands to market, stay on shelf and garner the greatest ROI from their marketing spend. To gain greater insight into how these industry professionals are helping niche brands find success at retail, DSN hosted a virtual roundtable discussion with some of todayŌĆÖs leading players.
For niche brands, getting a foot in the door of mass market retail is no easy feat, and the stakes remain high as retailers have, in recent years, trimmed SKU counts and grown increasingly risk-adverse. Yet, at the same time, retailers remain on the hunt for a point of differentiation among a sea of ŌĆ£sameness.ŌĆØ

Speedy Veggie Stir-Fry
1/2 bunch asparagus
3-4 TBS Canola or peanut oil
1 tsp minced garlic
1-2 tsp minced ginger
1 tsp hot chile oil (optional, if you like it spicy)
1 pkg Tonys Cole Slaw mix
1 pkg Tonys Squash Stir Fry
8 oz white button mushrooms, shiitake or a combination - sliced
fine sea salt and white pepper to taste
Bring two quarts of salted water to a boil. Trim asparagus, cut on a bias into 2 inch segments and blanch for 1 minutes (they should still be slightly crisp to the bite), shock in ice water to cool quickly.
Heat a large wok or large heavy skillet over high heat. Add 2-3 TBS oil, garlic, ginger and hot chile oil (if using). Take care; the garlic and ginger tend to splatter when they hit the hot oil. Immediately add cole slaw medley and stir-fry for one minute. Add remaining vegetables and continue to stir-fry until crisp / tender (in a very hot pan, this dish can be done in 2-3 minutes, at a sauté it will take longer). Taste and adjust with salt and pepper. Serves 6. - Chef Mick, Tonys Markets

Michael on top in sunny Suzuka
The rains that have dogged Formula 1 in China and Japan finally cleared on Friday with the Suzuka circuit bathed in sunshine, even if there was a very strong wind blowing across the track. The morning session saw no major incident and was dominated by Michael Schumacher's Ferrari, which set a fastest lap of 1m30.653s, a full 1.2 seconds faster than the Toyota driven by his brother Ralf. Third quickest was Honda's Jenson Button, ahead of the two Renaults of Giancarlo Fisichella and Fernando Alonso. Nick Heidfeld was sixth fastest in his BMW Sauber ahead of Nico Rosberg's Williams-Cosworth, Kimi Raikkonen's McLaren, Robert Kubica's BMW and the Ferrari of Felipe Massa. Next up were the Toro Rosso of Tonio Liuzzi, Pedro de la Rosa's McLaren and Scott Speed in the second Toro Rosso.
Whether any of this is significant remains to be seen but with a big crowd at Suzuka, the qualifying session this afternoon will be interesting as Schumacher and Alonso battle for the World Championship.

Very good flavors. I only used 1 Tbsp herbes de Provence, Roma tomatoes, white balsamic vinegar (since I didn't have red wine vinegar on hand) and basil leaves from my garden instead of tarragon. I also added minced garlic to the tomatoes.
Loved. Added sauteed yellow squash and zucchini to make it a little more of a dinner on its own. This also helped to spread out the two tablespoons of herbs. Delicious.
Extremely flavorful with a combination of tastes all at once. I did not have tarragon, but I don't think it was missed.
This is a relatively easy recipe with a wonderful flavor. Will make it again just as it is. Did not have chalot so used garlic instead....great full bodied flavor.
This was wonderful ! I agree that one tablespoon of the herbs is plenty. Served it over angel hair pasta that had been tossed with garlic butter. Husband, who is not a pasta lover, asked if we could have it again the next night.
Chicken was perfectly done but the spices were a bit much, I would consider cutting them a bit.
Wow, delicious! I used a good aged balsamic instead of Worcestershire and red wine vinegar. Served with parmesan couscous and almond green beans. My 7 year old ate her whole plate as well!
Wow, delicious. Substituted a very good aged balsamic for Worcestershire and red wine vinegar. My 7 yr old enjoyed as well. Used on pan-just put tomatoes in bowl as others recommended.
What a nice change up on chicken! And aren't we all looking for that? The roasted tomatoes make it! I don't see any need to use 2 different ovenproof skillets, so I roasted the tomatoes then put them back in the bowl they started in and used the same skillet for the chicken. Served it all with egg noodles, adding some broccoli to the boiling noodles for the last 3 minutes. I would have liked a little more sauce, so next time I might add a little chicken broth to the pan while the shallots are being sautéed.
As lovely and flavourful as advertised. The similarities between this and Poulet au Provence are eerily similar so I couldn't resist adding a half cup of sliced black olives. We served it with rice the first day, pasta the second. I preferred the latter, my wife the former, either way, it's a delicious way to mess up some chicken breasts.

Manzanillas are the tasty green olives you are served at all of the cafes and bars of Spain. Sweet and nutty with a balanced flavor, these 'Ybarra - Alta Seleccion' olives are the best Manzanillas we have ever tried.
Alta Seleccion means that they are the highest quality that Ybarra produces in terms of plumpness, flavor and size. Unlike the salty, tasteless green olives you will find in your neighborhood supermarket, these have a full taste that is light on the salt and heavy on olive flavor.
Our Ybarra Collection of Olives is produced by the eminent Hijos de Ybarra company. Originally founded in 1842 by the first Count of Ybarra, Don José María de Ybarra y Gutierrez de Coviedes, it remains in the family's hands six generations later.
Aljarife manzanilla table olives are noted for their plumpness, size and flavor. Ybarra is known throughout Spain as the standard against which all other commercial olives are measured. Alta Seleccion are the best of all.

Washington Governor Chris Gregoire says the state will appeal a federal judge's ruling that the state cannot force pharmacies to sell Plan B.
Gregoire issued a statement Wednesday afternoon announcing the action, saying she fully supports the appeal that will be filed by the office of Attorney General Rob McKenna.
The state's rules require pharmacies stock and dispense drugs for which there is a demand, but some pharmacies have stressed religious objections to carrying emergency contraceptives.
U.S. District Judge Ronald Leighton's ruling last month did not strike down Washington's stocking and dispensing rules for pharmacies, but said simply that the way they were applied to the plaintiffs in this case was unconstitutional.

Selector specificity is a process used to determine which rules take precedence in CSS when several rules could be applied to the same element in markup. It's a simple enough process, but has caught out a lot of developers at some point in their career.
Author: Gez Lemon
A Specificity Example
Consider the following snippet of CSS.
ul#blogroll a
color: #c00;
color: #00c;
Then consider the following snippet of markup.

Blog 1

Blog 2

Blog 3

Blog 4

Assuming these are the only two rules, what colour will the anchor element with a class
name of highlight
- #c00?
- #00c?
The answer is option 1, as the specificity of the id
attribute is higher than that of a class
Understanding Specificity
The W3C's CSS specification gives the following advice for calculating a selector's specificity.
A selector's specificity is calculated as follows:
- count the number of
attributes in the selector (= a)- count the number of other attributes and pseudo-classes in the selector (= b)
- count the number of element names in the selector (= c)
- ignore pseudo-elements.
Concatenating the three numbers a-b-c (in a number system with a large base) gives the specificity.
A number system with a large base requires having a means of representing each digit. Number bases smaller than 10 are simple enough, as they can use the digits 0 up to the base required minus one. For example, binary (base 2) uses the digits 0 and 1, and octal (base 8) uses the digits 0 to 7. Hexadecimal is a number system with a base of 16, and makes up for the shortfall in numerical digits by using the letters A to F. The problem we have is that we can't be sure how large a base we require for our number system; it could be any amount.
One solution suggested is to count the numbers in each column, and multiply by its denary position. In simple terms, multiply a by 100, b by 10, and c by 1 (remains the same), and then add them together. The problem with this approach is that it falls down when one of the columns has a count of ten or higher. For example, 11 elements (c) would outweigh a single class (b) using this method, but that cannot be true. A single class would outweigh 100 or more elements. The simplest way to cater for the large base is to just accept that b outweighs any number of c, and that a outweighs any number of b (which is true of any number system). Applying this logic to our two selectors, we can see that ul#blogroll a
is more specific than a.highlight
a | b | c | result | |
ul#blogroll a |
1 | 0 | 2 | 1, 0, 2 |
a.highlight |
0 | 1 | 1 | 0, 1, 1 |
More specific, not more important
I've worked on a few projects where developers have added the !important
declaration to overcome specificity. The !important
declaration overrides normal declarations, but is unstructured and rarely required in an author's style sheet. By default, author style sheets override user style sheets. To redress the balance, the !important
declaration in a user's style sheet overrides the author's declarations, including those declared by the author as !important
. Arguably, the !important
declaration is best placed in the user's style sheet, and not the authors.
To adjust the specificity of our original selector, merely requires adding the id
attribute to make it more specific.
ul#blogroll a.highlight
color: #00c;
a | b | c | result | |
ul#blogroll a |
1 | 0 | 2 | 1, 0, 2 |
ul#blogroll a.highlight |
1 | 1 | 2 | 1, 1, 2 |
The specificity is now higher than the rest of the anchors in the unordered list, and the change of colour will be applied to anchor elements that have a class
of highlight
Category: Style.

Are you using the staircase landing or the vacant space underneath the stairs ? If not, it could be a perfect spot for running a home office, placing a book shelf, a walk-in closet or even an utility closet.
Here are some simple ideas to help you make efficient use of that space:
1. Use that area to safely keep your car keys, backpacks, umbrellas or even sports equipment.
2. While designing your closet underneath the staircase or on the landing area – consider installing drawers, doors, shelves (that can be slotted at different heights), wire baskets (for storing stuff like toys).
3. Home office is more suitable underneath a stairwell. The shape of the wall compliments the table and the storage.
If your landing or underneath area is spacious, you can create a walk-in closet – it has shelves on two or three sides.You can walk around or even add lighting and mirrors to your closet.
Utility closet is another good option which can be used for storing permanent housing appliances (for eg. gardening, heating /cooling equipments).
The bulky rugs and carpets can also be arranged neatly inside the closet. It is generally a good idea to install steel rods – you can roll the carpet around and store more things in the same space.

Service Descriptions
Are you looking for a particular service in your area? Click here to visit our Service Locator and find where this service is offered near you.
Adult Developmental Vocational Programs (ADVP) - ADVP programs provide organized developmental activities for adults with developmental disabilities. Our ADVP programs give individuals the tools they need to live as independently as possible. Opportunities provided by RHA ADVP programs include daily living/personal care skills, work training & vocational support, community living skills, and leisure activities.
Clinical Intake/Assessments - Our licensed clinicians perform diagnostic assessments to determine/recommend the appropriate services.
Day Services – Support & VOCA - These services are offered in non-residential settings and are focused on helping individuals reach their highest level of functioning. Improvements in self-help, socialization, and adaptive skills are important goals. Day supports serve to strengthen the skills learned in school or in physical, occupational, or speech therapies. Day services may focus on prevocational activities such as improving attention span, motor skills, attendance, and the completion of assigned tasks.
Developmental Therapy - RHA shapes this developmental intervention service to fit the unique needs of each child or adult service user. Developmental therapy offers instruction and training to assist in the building of skills not acquired during the developmental stages of life. For children, these activities may include self-help, language and cognitive development, and psychosocial skills. For adults, areas of focus may include self-care and living independently, learning to navigate one's environment with limited mobility, socialization skills, and self-advocacy.
Family & Group Living - Sometimes a person with developmental disabilities is unable to live with his or her own family but can still be supported in an alternative family setting. RHA Family & Group Living services include the option of Alternative Family Living (AFL). Alternative Family Living enables a person to live in a private home with a family and still receive 24-hour support and habilitation. A targeted case manager monitors the health and safety of this person while receiving these services.
Group Homes (Level III)
Home & Community Supports - These habilitation services are individualized to meet the specific needs of each person as outlined in his/her Person-Centered Plan. These integrated supports include training, instruction, and supervision and can be delivered in a person's home or in various community settings. These services are focused on helping individuals build skills that will enable them to function with greater independence.
ICF/MR Services - This residential setting is the most structured level of support offered by RHA, with staff on duty around the clock. These group-homes coordinate health and rehabilitative services and provide training that enables people with developmental disabilities to function at the highest level possible. RHA operates ICF/MR homes for both children and adults.
Independent Living - For some people, only minimal support is required; this option allows these individuals to live independently in their own house or apartment with support available as needed. This residential alternative reflects the flexibility of RHA support services.
Long-Term Vocational Supports - The purpose of these services is to help individuals age 16 and over maintain their employment when they no longer need more structured Supported Employment services. Sometimes people, because of medical or behavioral needs, may require some extra support in their work environment but do not need more intensive vocational services such as help finding a job or learning how to perform the tasks of a job.
NC START Respite & Team - NC START stands for North Carolina Systemic, Therapeutic Assessment, Respite, and Treatment. This program offers intervention and community crisis supports for individuals with development disabilities and challenging behavioral health needs. Each region in the state (East, Central, & West) has two clinical teams that provide 24/7 crisis response and clinical consultation as well as prevention training and crisis planning. NC START also provides respite services for eligible individuals. RHA provides NC START services in the Eastern and Western regions of the state.
Personal Care Services - When individuals need help with the activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, meal preparation and eating, and care of personal hygiene, our direct care professionals can offer support for these activities.
Residential Supports - RHA residential supports are designed to assist individuals in a variety of living arrangements - whether group homes, apartments, or within their own homes. We offer a wide range of supports and specialized services - everything from assistance with finding appropriate housing, help with daily living activities and coordination of transportation needs, to helping people build the skills they need to find employment and live more independently.
Respite Services - Everyone needs a break now and then. We understand and can help. Our respite services allow you to have that night out or afternoon outing without worrying. RHA respite services are available either at an individual's home or at one of our respite centers. Through respite services, we offer caregivers temporary relief and rest while ensuring a high level of care provided by skilled and compassionate professionals.
Skilled Nursing - Some of the people we support require specialized care under the supervision of a registered nurse.
Supported Employment - RHA offers supported employment to increase job opportunities for people with disabilities. We are constantly building local and regional partnerships with the business community that can help the people we support find long-term employment.

The RHA Strategic Plan
"A satisfied customer is the best business strategy of all"
- Michael LeBoeuf, Ph.D.
Successful results usually begin with two important elements: 1) realistic, well-defined goals and 2) a carefully considered strategy that outlines how to meet those goals. At RHA, we believe in planning for the success of the people we support, our employees and the communities we serve. Our goal is "Setting the PACE for Excellence in Supporting People." Our detailed strategy for meeting this goal and providing the best services and supports for people with disabilities focuses on 4 key areas:
1) Improving Quality through Innovative Practices and Person-Centered, Customer-Driven Supports
2) Ensuring Financial Performance and Growth
3) Promoting Community Integration, Outreach and Hope
4) Building Local Leadership through Grassroots Advocacy

Why Choose RHA?
Here's what the people we support, their families and caregivers have to say about the services they received from RHA:
"When we were told our son would need to move from an institution to a group home, we were scared. Then along came RHA. Since then, we have been comforted time and time again with the acceptance, love, concern, and respect that we and our son have been given. Our family has always been welcomed, and our thoughts and concerns have been addressed." - Lynn P. Lawrence (parent)
"Each day with RHA, my son is presented with challenges and training that helps him become a more independent part of society. He lives in an environment that fosters family life and its responsibilities. It is his home, where he has his own private time, goes out into the community for recreation, and goes to work five days a week. He has what we all want for our family member – independence." - Dee Reece (parent)
"RHA has been providing services for my son for over 16 years now, and I am very pleased with the company all around. I would gladly refer any person in need of their services to RHA." - Peggy Poovey (parent)
At RHA, we are committed to building an inclusive community for the people we serve through advocacy. Advocacy can be effective in many forms, not least of which is raising community awareness of the rights of people with disabilities and the many opportunities for growth and achievement that are available to them. An important part of advocacy is the building of strategic partnerships with others in our communities who care about the people we support. We are also committed to encouraging the people we serve to become their own best advocates through self-advocacy. Are you looking for more "grassroots" ways of helping RHA fulfill its mission of providing the best possible futures for people of all capabilities? Below is a list of options for people in our communities who want to serve but aren't quite sure how they can get involved:
Attend RHA fundraising events. Have fun while showing your support for the people we serve! RHA fundraisers are not only for raising money. By providing enjoyable community events, we hope to engage many others in shaping a better future for people with disabilities.
Help sponsor our special events. The contributions of our event sponsors are crucial to the success of all our outreach and fundraising efforts. Special events not only help us build the resources needed to continue providing high quality services and supports, they also allow us to raise awareness and build relationships with others in our communities who can provide employment and other opportunities for the people we serve.
Keep in regular contact with state legislators and public officials. Believe it or not, when we speak (whether in person, by mail, email or over the phone), our lawmakers listen! Tell your representatives in government that you care about the health, dignity and well-being of people with disabilities. Housing and basic care are not enough. Everyone deserves a chance to work towards a more independent and successful future! This is a great way to participate in the political process while helping others.
Stay Informed. Research public policy related websites. Join policy listservs. Visit the North Carolina General Assembly (NCGA) website to find out who represents you and track bills that will impact people with disabilities. Through the NCGA site, you can find the websites for your elected officials and communicate with them your concerns about policy issues. Keep track of updates on the website for the North Carolina Division of Mental Health, Developmental Disabilities and Substance Abuse Services (NC DD/MH/SAS).
Donate. As we continue to face state and federal budget cuts, we as an organization increasingly rely on support from the communities we serve. No gift is too small. We appreciate any amount that you can give.
Volunteer. Sometimes a kind word and the giving of one's time can be the greatest gift. If you would like to volunteer in one of our offices or group homes, please call the RHA office nearest to you to see what kind of community service opportunities are available in your area.

I feel for ya man! I hope it all comes out in the wash on Monday........sounds like Wayne, Kerwin, DOG, SD, etc......all have some good thoughts on the matter....when I encounter a problem like your's that's taking time away from flying.....I look to whatever solution that will get me back into the air as soon as possible....it's all about the flying!
Today seemed like a good day to go over the Aeroworks 260 EP, as a post flight inspection wasn't done at the field. Low and behold.....one of the aileron servos was stripped......wouldn't you know it... there was only three new Hitec HS-55's in my shop and I used a servo from the box marked "good".....and it turns out to be stripped (or did I strip it at the field)! Tragedy was avoided anyhow. Jack211 left me my next project......a Duraplane Sturdy Bird. I'm removing the tired receiver and skis and replacing them with a new receiver and wheels. We both enjoyed these flying drainpipes equipped with cheap ST .51's.....they are indestructible...well at least this one was.....it was the sole survivor of our last battle over the ice at Swedetown Pond! Good memories! |
Terrance has been flying a Hyperion yak and a hangar 9 260. Nothing with an OS 55 gasser.
Went to College Station yesterday and picked up the soon to be A&M graduate child and then we all spent the day shopping and getting treats locally, we even hit the county museum. Then today we went down to Austin and saw Dark Shadows at the IMAX theater. Then we hit Nordstroms, Sephora, etc. for some Mothers Day shopping. Finally, we hit Krispy Kreme for something sweet and got Chuy's Mexican food to bring home. There are three happy girls and one broke but pleased Plowboy laying around here right now! Hope all had a great time with your loved ones today. |

put new brake pads on the front of the wife's car. then looked over my sbach. charged the rx and tx batts and adjusted the control linkages to neutral. was gonna install the fuel tank but gonna need new fue linel first. tygon has turned hard after so many months of being out of fuel.
See how you are K49. You sent me an email but didn't call me.
I didn't see my email until almost 7. and momma dosn't like me flying my larger planes alone. On a lighter note I did maiden my lil MX. Since it doesn't have wheels and was out of trim and I crashed on the 1st hand launch. I just couldn't get my right hand on the sticks fast enough after I hand launched her. I added 3 clicks of up elev to here and I was successful on the 2nd time. Boy she is a real nice flyer. I was just starting to put her through her paces when the motor came out of the mounting tube. seems I left the screw out of the mounting tube. I put some velcro on my new batteries now I just have to wait till for the foam tac to dry. Though I do have another battery ready to go. |

Kerwin.....I purchased the motor and ESC from Tower.....Rimfire 400 outrunner, 25 A Silver ESC, 10x4.7 APC Electric prop, 11.1v 1300 mAh LiPo (Electrifly) ...plenty of power.....and you could be right......it may have been the servo all along......as soon as the wind dies down I'll find that out.
I completely rebuilt the Duraplane Sturdy Birdie......new drain pipe, two new servos, new fuel tank and tubing, new battery, new receiver.....few more refinements and it'll be ready for early this week! I also found a Big Stick 60 size that will fly soon too......OH, and most importantly......a brand spankin' new T_ _ _T 40 with a OS .61 FX new in the box....buried behind a sheet of 1/4" tempered hardboard...forgot I had it. |
Snowman!! wth?! That's weird....but awesome!!! I'm gonna go search my garage!
I was looking at the picture of you Figi bottle, and you not running a vent loop and drip weep out the bottom of the plane? |

My shop is just plain messy....I do however aspire to achieve greatness like Wayne's shop...mon dieu....magnificent!! On the way I hope to reach levels of attainment such as Waldo's expansive (and tidy) construction central....or DR's sprawling two-car-takeover! Until that day I hope that there are more pleasant discoveries like today's! Plow, we haven't seen your new work area or did I miss that?
