Right before last year's Arts at Hayfield Summer Festival, Janis Winter sat on the phone with crafters from areas as close as Hazleton, listening to them tell her that the weather seemed just fine. In Lehman Township, where the festival was to be held, it wasn't.
"It was a mess around here," she said of the Penn State Wilkes-Barre campus that serves as the grounds for the festival. "The hurricane ripped through the area. We had no electricity for three days, it was a state of emergency, and the campus shut down."
And so, the event was canceled for that year, and all thoughts immediately turned to planning for the 28th festival, which takes place from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Sunday.
The Arts at Hayfield Summer Festival showcases more than 120 artisans, musicians and crafters, as well as food vendors, artisan demonstrations, children's activities, an open house at the Friedman Observatory and tours of the historic Hayfield House.
"It's very focused on interacting with members of the community," Winters said. "It's not just people sitting around selling things. We have entertainment all day, as well as demonstrations and activities for children to do."
The festival will welcome the Back Mountain Youth Theatre, with director Gina Major, and its performance of "Jack and the Bean Stalk" this year. The Daisy Jug Band is another new act, a group that plays classic and modern country, oldies, and rock and even employs the use of wash pans for instruments.
The show was more focused on the entertainment aspect in the beginning, but it quickly flourished into an event filled with crafters.
"It was almost like an accident, in the sense that when the festival came to us American craft interest just started to boom," Winters said.
Crafters at the festival deal in everything from pottery, candles, soaps, clothing, stuffed dolls and animals, holiday-centric pieces, glass work, and metal work, among many other things. There are also plenty of vendors that deal in food, from exotic jams that contain bourbon and margarita flavors to various types of salsa.
While the finished product is important, Winter said it's the process that the festival likes to focus on.
"We like to emphasize the demonstration, not just selling of crafts," Winters said. "I had a crafter of ours tell me how much she enjoyed doing a demonstration elsewhere, simply because it was wonderful to have people come by and ask her questions about her craft. It made her feel like she was doing something of value, as opposed to sitting and selling something where someone might walk up to you and tell you that if you knock a couple bucks off what you're selling they'll take it off your hands."
There will also be tours of the historic Hayfield House offered at 11 a.m. and 1 and 2:30 p.m. A DVD that highlights the pastures and home of John N. Conyngham II through photographs and interviews with those who grew up on and experienced life at Hayfield Farm will be sold.
Festival attendees can also take a peek through the campus' Meade telescope in the Friedman Observatory from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) Quarterback Cam Newton said the Carolina Panthers didn't come close to playing their best game Sunday.
And yet they still beat their division rivals by 24 points.
Carolina's 34-10 win over the Atlanta Falcons was its fourth straight and pulled the Panthers to a game behind division-leading New Orleans in the NFC South.
That's growth, and that's what you need to see, Newton said. For us it's coming out each and every day and proving to ourselves that we're not going to play lights out each and every day, but we still can hold ourselves accountable that if a mistake happens... we're going to (come back and) make something happen.
Said tight end Greg Olsen: At the end, beating that team by that margin and not having your 'A' game, that's a sign of a good team.
Newton was the first to admit he struggled, particularly in the first half.
He had two interceptions, but the Panthers still led 14-10 at the break and put the game away by outscoring the Falcons 17-0 in the final quarter. Newton led five scoring drives. He finished with 249 yards passing and threw for one touchdown and ran for another.
Coach Ron Rivera thinks it's a good sign the Panthers are expecting more of themselves as a team every week.
I think it's an indication as where we're starting to evolve as a football team, Rivera said. But we've still got a long way to go because we missed some opportunities early in the game and those were a couple of them. Defensively we gave up some big plays. We don't want to do that. We want to keep it in front of us. If teams are going to score against us they've got to earn it.

Hi my name is Kaitlin and I really need help figuring out when my great grandfather Salvatore Peperato naturalized in the US. I know that he was born around December 24 1884(iffy on the year). He was married to my great grandmother Lucia(Lucy) Rubino. Then they both came to the US from Italy(I believe around Abruzzo) in 1906. They had kids who were: Albert, Virginia, Guy, and Carl Peperato. I'm trying to get dual citizenship with Italy and I am totally lost in figuring out how to go about doing this. I know I need to figure out whether or not I'm eligible first so that's why I need help figuring out what year my great grandfather was naturalized in the US if at all. Please help me!
Thank you

Cancer Health Center
Primary CNS Lymphoma Treatment (PDQ®): Treatment - Health Professional Information [NCI] - Treatment Option Overview
In a prospective, randomized trial of 551 immunocompetent patients with newly diagnosed primary CNS lymphoma, all patients received induction chemotherapy with six cycles of high-dose methotrexate (4 g/m2) with or without ifosfamide.[39] Upon completion of chemotherapy, responders were randomly assigned to WBRT (45 Gy) or to no treatment for complete response patients and cytarabine for partial response patients. There was no statistical difference in median OS with 32.4 months for patients receiving radiation therapy versus 37.1 months for those not receiving radiation (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.06; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.80–1.40, P = .71).[39][Level of evidence: 1iiA] Treatment-related neurotoxicity was significantly worse on the radiation therapy arm, and such toxicity must be weighed against the possibility that the survival from chemotherapy alone may be marginally inferior to the survival when radiation is added.
Patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) associated primary CNS lymphoma usually have very advanced human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections with CD4 counts less than 50 cells/mm3.[40] Consequently, most patients die of opportunistic infections regardless of therapy for the lymphoma. Groups that benefit most from radiation therapy, with or without antecedent chemotherapy, include those HIV-seropositive patients with no prior opportunistic infections or tumors for whom the CNS lymphoma is the AIDS-defining illness, and those patients with a good performance status, high CD4 lymphocyte count (>100mm3), and symptoms referable only to the CNS lymphoma.[32,41] Treatment of these patients requires special consideration. (Refer to the PDQ summary on AIDS-Related Lymphoma Treatment for more information.)
An international consortium performed a retrospective review of 83 HIV-negative patients with primary intraocular lymphoma.[42] In selected patients with no evidence of disseminated CNS disease, localized therapy with intraocular methotrexate or ocular radiation therapy is associated with equivalent outcomes seen with systemic chemotherapy and/or WBRT. Localized therapy with intraocular methotrexate or ocular radiation therapy did not affect relapse rate, median PFS, or median OS as compared to systemic chemotherapy and/or WBRT.[42][Level of evidence: 3iiiDiv]

I have had several over the years,,high dollar to discount.
Have the BILT explorer I bought for $100 ,,fits okay, good wide visibility, lightweight,, guaranteed!,,and only a hunnert bucks at the time..It is missing a small screw from the visor,, I should take it back and get a new one!
My $530 Arai XD, as VDuckevinfelixhelix mentioned,,worst fogging visor I have ever ridden inside!
I was amazed that such a high end helmet had such poor visual distortion as well,, the face shield is good,, all the way up, or all the way down,,but crack it open a bit and it's like looking thru water, and the angular distortion inherent from same. and just horrible at night!
At less than half the cost, my old HJC never did that.
Nor does this El Cheapo cycle gear hat.
The peak over the visor,,(the bill on a ballcap) is really nice to have when you are riding in sunny directions!,,the Arai has a great one, the Bilt variety could be a bit longer, and other than that, you can add an aftermnarket peak to any helmet, with snaps riveted on.
Find a store with a good selection and try them all on,,but here in duck town that means hitting ALL the possible stores,,choices are limited for testing and trying on.
Start at the BMW boutique on W 11th,, ask to see the most expensive hat in the store,,,then shop from there,,

- The Theory of Disinhibition of Muscle Growth - for the longest time, researchers have thought that muscle grows in response to stimulus. However, is this the REAL TRUTH? Or is it something else entirely.
- The Truth about Silo Science - here's why experts in one field aren't able to provide advice EVEN in a field that's close to them. It's also why research continues to "dig a tunnel" down to the nitty gritty. What you don't know is how this can be a BAD thing and keep you away from hard earned results.
- The Truth about the "Twinkie Diet". That's right, John interviews Prof Haub about his extremely CONTROVERSIAL diet, why it worked, and even how his blood markers IMPROVED... by basically eating nothing but Twinkies all day. If you're afraid of food and what it will do to your fat loss goals, this interview is a TRUE GEM and will definitely help clear your head and give you permission to construct a plan that works BEAUTIFULLY for you - with no blowback and no hiccups
- Plus so much more
In Season 3, you'll discover (LIVE NOW):
- How to understand research claims. Did you know that most research claims are pulled from the abstracts of papers, and these abstracts DON'T even represent the true results of the research? That's right, scientists have to make money and "sell" themselves too. This is a HUGE problem in the industry and the average person has no idea what they're up against. This is too IMPORTANT for you to miss, we promise.
- The weight loss "industry" as a whole, and why it shouldn't even be classified as an "industry". - Plus another episode appears every 2 weeks, and you'll get those too.
All in all, you'll get EVERY episode of UNCENSORED, from past to present, just for taking advantage of your FREE TRIAL today!

The Workout of the Month
With Immersion, your workouts will NEVER go stale...
That's right, included in Immersion is the Workout of the Month, which stems from our Advanced Series.
These 4 week modules will provide you with the novelty and change to not only keep you progressing, but keep you challenged, motivated, and excited because you know you've got something different coming in the next few weeks.
Did you know that most people quit working out because of BOREDOM?
That's right... BOREDOM.
Their programs get stale.
However, when you jump into Immersion, you'll never have to worry about stale workouts and boredom again. Just drag and drop, mix and match.
Built like building blocks, it's up to YOU on how you want to piece them together. And it's easy to do. You'll absolutely LOVE this!
The Natural Standards Supplement Database
Just imagine: you can search any supplement ingredient you can think of and look up the studies yourself...
Natural Standard is the authority on integrative medicine. And it's much more than just a supplement database.
Here are all sections you get access through your online portal:
- Foods, Drugs and Supplements
- Medical Conditions
- Drug Interactions
- Drug Nutrient Depletions
- Herb/Supplement Nutrient Depletions
You Can Also Search by Medical Condition
Do you want to learn about the research and quality of the research on your favorite supplements to find out if it's even worth taking them? Do you want to find out which supplements can help you with your goals?
Then the Natural Standard Database will help you do that.
This database is worth well over $300/yr (because that's what you'd pay on your own); however, we've covered the stiff licensing fee FOR YOU, so you can get access for MUCH, MUCH less.
This is the SAME database John uses when he's formulating new supplements, the EXACT SAME.
If it's good enough for him, it's good enough for you.
Plus, all past, present, and future products under the Adonis Index brand (Adonis Golden Ratio brand excluded)
Just imagine finally getting your head clear about everything in the diet and fitness industry. With Immersion, you won't GUESS...
... you'll KNOW.
And you'll never be fooled by another false claim again.
Plus, once you're finished paying, you'll CONTINUE to receive the Workout of the Month and all new UNCENSORED podcasts as they come out.
This is a PROGRAM literally never ends. The payments do, yet the education continues forever.
Immersion simply gives you the best chance of success... and we can say this because over 70% of our past contest winners actually OWN this program and credit it with most of their success.
Because being given a roadmap oftentimes isn't enough.
Sometimes, you have to UNLEARN what you think you know in order to match you and your program to YOUR REALITY.
Immersion is about FINALLY giving you the freedom to do what you need to do, without worrying about whether something will HURT you.
It's about choice... the CHOICE to be who you really want to be.
Reactions in the Adonis Golden Ratio Community about the Adonis "IMMERSION" FREE TRIAL...
"One of the biggest benefits of the immersion package is the vast amount of audio recordings it gives you access to. Going into it I though I was fairly well informed about all things diet and nutrition related, but after making my way through the UNCENSORED I realized how little I actually knew. Listening to those recordings is like taking a several college level courses on fitness. If you ask me that alone was worth the price of admission."
"So far purchasing immersion has been a very positive experience. i like the fact that the guys have offered a payment plan for those of us who can't shell out hundreds of dollars at once. the UNCENSORED podcast and teleseminar have been a tremendous help as far as information. they've helped me discard a lot of the beliefs i had which now i realize don't make any sense at all. they also helped me understand how dieting works and how to keep at it the smart way and not crash like it's usually the case with all diets. I do not regret purchasing Immersion at all."
"Just bought Immersion.... No turning back."
"What made me do it is that all of their stuff has been spot on. Straight up honesty. No gimmicks. No BS. I respect that and resonate with their philosophy more than most. It's sustainable, minimal stress, and long term. In the end, it just made sense.... It's still a little weird to think about how much I've progressed along in my journey but coming from where I was up to now, there is just no possible way to argue with the results. (Down 90 lbs.,)
Also, the new insights presented are not just limited to health and fitness but are also very applicable to many other situations; new perspectives and mental models. I appreciate that what they offer is not just knowledge but true wisdom. Very hard to find that these days."
"All in all I think this was a great offer. It might seem like a big investment when you look at the full price, but if you think about this includes everything you will ever need to achieve that ideal physique and you never have to pay another dime for any other workout or podcast.
The podcasts alone will make it worth the asking price, especially if they do keep the promise and keep putting them out each year (and us immersion-ers get them forever)."
"I just went for it I'm in for life lol."
"I sort of stumbled my way into being an immersion customer as there was a one month trial with my original AGR workout purchase.
After sampling a number of uncensored podcasts, and reflecting on the money I've already started to save by abandoning superfluous supplement products this past year, I went for the up front option.
If you pay for stuff like supplements, Dexa scans, eBooks or professional trainers, then this is probably one of the smarter options for your spend among the many choices out there."
"As a immersion client, every single penny I spent especially on the Uncensored Podcast is gold. I have yet to finish season 1 but, but so fat it was pure gold information to heart. In the first place, I originally purchased it to obtain the rest of the advanced workouts instead of buying them individually. But Immersion is more than just saving money on workouts, altogether I know I made the right decision. I will never look back. The last podcast had me thinking a lot on what is the next step. My thinking has changed since I have gained but nothing simplicity of the truth. Overall, it's a great investment for the future for all the AI products without having to worry to spend another penny ever again."

Atmospheric Water Generator
We are very excited to announce our partnership with DewPointe inc. - maker of Atmospheric Water Generators!
Now you can literally make water out of air, thus ensuring an inexhaustible supply of water for all of your survival needs.
Please feel free to post here if you have any questions and we will do our best to provide you with answers.
Click here to read full description of this great product.
Why purchase a DewPointe
The DewPointe Advantage
* The DewPointe produces a never-ending supply of the purest possible
water from air.
* The DewPointe makes an average of 2-4 gallons of 99.99% pure water
each and every day.
* No more back injuries lifting 50 pounds of water in 5-gallon plastic
containers and no more spilled water.
* No more trips to the market for purified or filtered water.
* No complicated or expensive water filtration systems attached to the sink.
* Instant hot or cold water on demand.
* The DewPointe is lightweight, dependable, cost-effective and energy-
5 Stage Filter System:
Electrostatic Filter
Post Carbon Block Filter
Ultra Violet 11w UV.
Water Making Capacity:
.5 - 6 gallons per day depending on
temperature and humidityThe DewPointe can run on solar power or other energy source if the power system has an adapter to convert from DC to AC (the DewPointe runs on AC). Bear in mind that the unit is gravity-fed so that all the water inthe unit can be accessed in the event of a power failure... (read more)
Hey...I have something like that in my basement. Its called a dehumidifier!
There were some questions about water making capacity of this unit and the necessity of filters.
Regarding the water production capacity, I apologize for the confusion. Water production is variable as it depends on temperature and humidity factors. I think it is sufficient to say that the DewPointe™ AD6 makes an average of about 2 gallons a day. Currently the units in our offices here on the temperate California Central Coast produce about 2 gallons a day. At the least, it may only produce a 1/2 gallon a day in drier, cooler climates. Conversely, it could make up to 6 gallons a day in hot, humid climates such as the Philippines or Hawaii where we presently have units running.
Regarding the filters: In essence, an electrostatic filter would probably suffice to eliminate dust, allergens, and micro-fine particles that may be in the air. However, we wanted to go above and beyond what is necessary to ensure the absolute purest drinking water, especially if consumers opt to connect the DewPointe™ to an auxiliary water source. Additionally, water can leech chemicals from any surfaces it comes into contact with, which is why we use a FDA-approved food-grade coating on the condensing coils and either stainless steel or medically-approved inert plastic holding tanks. The UV filters and proprietary recirculation system ensure that there is no possibility of bacterial growth. Dehumidifiers are not equipped with any of these features or functions. I would not recommend to anyone to drink the water collected from a dehumidifier, considering the possible pollutants, bacteria, or chemicals that may be present in the tank's stagnant water.
New model Atmospheric Water generator is now available - DH9.
The DH9 produces 25% more water than the AD6 over a 24 hour period when calculating how much energy it uses, it is 20% more efficient than the previous model.

Workmen's Compensation Act 1906
The Workmen's Compensation Act 1906 was an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom which dealt with the right of working people for compensation for personal injury.
It fixes the compensation that a workman may recover from an employer in case of accident, esp. the British act of 6 Edw. VII. c. 58 (1906) giving to a workman, except in certain cases of "serious and willful misconduct," a right against his employer to a certain compensation on the mere occurrence of an accident where the common law gives the right only for negligence of the employer.
A 'workman' was defined as:
"any person who enters into or works under a contract of service or apprenticeship with an employer, whether by way of manual labour, clerical work or otherwise, and whether the contract is expressed or implied, is oral or in writing."
Exceptions were made, including non-manual workers employed on annual pay over £250, casual workers employed "otherwise than for the purposes of their employer's trade or business", outworkers and family workers. Hence specific exclusions were made at both the top and bottom end of the labour market.

A simple homework assignment for you (for me) today:
1) Take one to five minutes to stand outside and breathe deeply.
2) Go to bed early (so close your laptop dear one).
3) And when you feel yourself uninspired or feeling a bit alone or convinced that you could never create a self-portrait, head over to the Inner Excavation Flickr group and feel you heart fill up again.
Thank you for sharing yourselves and your stories. Happy weekend,

UPDATED: Shooting suspect also stabbed a man earlier in March, deputies say
A headline on this article has been updated to reflect that David Roden is suspected of stabbing a man earlier this month.
Authorities say a man allegedly shot at another man during a fight involving a woman today.
David Roden, 28, of Redding, fired at Reuben Hendrix, 38, of Palo Cedro, just before 2:30 p.m. in Bella Vista, say deputies with the Shasta County Sheriff's Office.
They said Roden had accompanied a woman to get her property from the home in the 11000 block of Buena Vista Court.
Hendrix showed up and, during an argument, Roden pulled out a handgun and shot at Hendrix, missing, deputies said.
Roden then jumped into a gray Jeep Cherokee and drove away, but Hendrix followed, deputies said. Roden pulled over and ran away. Deputies said they soon found Roden and arrested him after a short chase.
They said Roden is also suspected of stabbing Lorin Strahle at a home on Anna Road on March 5. Roden is at the Shasta County Jail and is facing charges of attempted murder.

The Sahitya Akademi, Delhi, had organised 'Asmita', a knowledge sharing platform, in collaboration with Gujarat Sahitya Parishad (GSP) on Wednesday at GSP where it had invited Gujarati women writers and poets. The event, which was held at GSP, was part of a three-day program.
Playwright and cultural activist Saroop Dhruv said, "Although, we never differentiate between male and female writers, it sometimes becomes important to highlight the work of women writers. It is a big day today, when due importance is being given to us. This platform will help in determining to a great extent as to where today's women writers and their work stand in the society."
GSP treasurer and one of the key organisers Rajendra Patel said, "This platform will give us a clear picture of women's contribution to Gujarati literature and will also help women express their feelings and thoughts through their words in the form of poetry or short stories. These women will also be gifted a token of appreciation for their contribution to Gujarati language."
Also present at the event were Darshini Dadawala (poetry), Laxmi Dobariya (poetry), Bindu Bhatt (short Story) and Chhaya Trivedi (short story) who talked about their works. Dhruv also gave her final opinions on their works.
Besides 'Asmita', the three-day program includes a book exhibition where books in 24 languages are on display and a discussion 'Mulaqat' on December 16.

R100GS with Bing alcohol proof floats

FWIW, when I have cleaned up the float and float chamber (to keep with Bing terminology) as part of a 'rebuild' - some metal polish and pipe cleaners were used to clean the brass tube inserts in the floats. Having the float tubes polished keeps them from sticking on the pins. If they stick, then fuel comes out the carb vent hole as mentioned - which is aggravating. Note the bowls are not interchangeable.
Also, in a futile effort to state the obvious, the float chamber (bowl) fuel height affects the air/fuel mixture. More height is richer and less leaner. Bing does not provide the fuel height in the float chamber but instead describes how the float arm needs to be parallel to the carb body as an indirect way to set the fuel height. I never found it easy to tell if the float arm was parallel with the carb body while installed on the bike. Apparently, that is easy for some. Again, YMMV.

No decision yet on new players' participation in auction
MUMBAI: The much-awaited and equally delayed guidelines for launching third generation (3G) and WiMax services is likely to issued by the government in June, leading to telecom companies launching these services by January, telecom minister Andimuthu Raja said on Friday.
3G wireless networks allow operators to transmit data, voice and video at high speeds, enabling internet services on mobile devices.
Hence data heavy operations like high speed internet surging, streaming videos on hand held devices etc would become a reality.
Experts believe India can completely skip the wired broadband internet access generation, which has been showing paltry growth due to last-mile connectivity issues, by moving to wireless 3G and WiMax.
Raja said since existing telecom operators are 3G ready, hence no additional infrastructure would be needed.
The government is likely to set a level playing field for domestic and overseas players. "If there is common (3G spectrum) or open auction, then there will be no bar. Either way foreign players will be permitted," he said. The government is still undecided on whether new players should be allowed to participate in the 3G auction, he said.
While the government is keen on having a global bid for 3G spectrum because it believes this step would bring more money and increase competition, the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India want competition to be limited to the existing players, who can tie up with foreign players for technology and funds.
3G services are likely to be initially auctioned only for the metro circles.
Operators buying the rights will have to tie up with local players controlling other circles to provide roaming services.

Luckily for the Ledger family, the fight never reached court, and Matilda Rose benefited in the end. But Ledger should not have left it up to chance. It is critical for everyone to update their wills and trusts after important life events, such as the birth of a child, a new marriage, divorce, or even buying or selling a business.
4. Frank Sinatra: Plan Ahead For Trouble
While Ol' Blue Eyes was of course best known for his crooning, he was a successful actor as well. He won his Oscar award for Best Supporting Actor, in the 1954 movie, From Here to Eternity. Sinatra had a wide range of talents, and estate planning was one of them.
Sinatra did what many people in second marriage (or third) situations fail to do — plan ahead to avoid a family fight. Probate court battles between adult children and a second spouse are far too common; they can often be avoided with well-drafted documents by an experienced estate planning attorney. Sinatra's will, made in 1993, was very detailed — it was 21 pages long. It included a thorough "no contest clause" (also known to lawyers as an "in terrorem clause"). While these clauses are common-place today, Sinatra's will was more unusual for its day. It prohibited 13 different legal actions, so that if any of his family members went to court, they would be completely disinherited.
Sinatra's will worked. No one challenged his will, even though his children were reportedly unhappy with how much he left his widow, Barbara.
Too many people assume that their children and spouse will get along when they die. It's always good to plan ahead, just in case, and help insure that your wishes are followed without family fighting.
5. Marlon Brando: Don't Rely on Verbal Gifts
Brando never followed convention. He won his second Oscar for Best Actor in 1973, for The Godfather, but he rejected the award as a protest to the treatment of Native Americans by the film industry. Too bad he failed to follow the norms when it came to estate planning.
In part due to questions about his true intentions as expressed in his will and trust, Brando's estate was involved in more than two dozens lawsuits by 2009 — five years after his death. There were multiple lawsuits involving claims of employees who used to work for Brando saying that he had promised them certain assets or interests, even though the verbally-made gifts were not reflected in his estate planning documents.
Many people make the common mistake of assuming their family members will honor their true wishes, as expressed verbally, even if the will and trust are not changed to include the new wishes. Many alleged that was the exact case with the Brando estate, leading to multiple legal challenges. In the end, those cases settled, leaving neither side happy with the outcome. Clearer estate planning documents could have avoided — or at least minimized — many of these fights, as we detail in our book, Trial & Heirs: Famous Fortune Fights!

Voice of Tigers to visit local Auburn ClubPublished 9:51am Wednesday, April 10, 2013
The Voice of the Auburn Tigers Rod Bramblett will be the keynote speaker April 23 when the Elmore County Auburn Club holds its spring meeting at Must Stop Cafe in Wetumpka.
Club members will get a chance to ask plenty of questions of Bramblett given it will be just a few days removed of Auburn's A-Day game (April 20).
The meeting will feature a steak dinner. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m., with dinner to follow at 7 p.m.
Tickets are $35 for each person.
Club president Kevin Taylor asks those who plan to attend to contact him at 334-567-7811 or Jay Collier at 334-567-8444.
Tickets should be purchased by April 16 to ensure an accurate head count.
"We are honored to have Rod join us and share with us some insight to 'A New Day' on the Plains," Taylor said.
In addition to dinner with Bramblett, the club will also have various auction items for those in attendance to bid on. One of the items will be an autographed football from head football coach Gus Malzahn.
The club has also been holding a raffle for a mini Auburn football helmet autographed by the school's three Heisman Trophy winners – Pat Sullivan, Bo Jackson and Cam Newton.
Tickets for the raffle are $5 and the drawing will be held at the close of the meeting April 23.
Tickets will continue to be on sale up until the drawing that night. Proceeds from the tickets sold will benefit the Elmore County Auburn Club Scholarship, which is awarded each year to an incoming Auburn freshman from Elmore County.
Taylor reminds Auburn alumni and friends alike that they do not have to be a member of the Auburn Alumni Association to be a member of the Elmore County Auburn Club.
"That has always been a misconception of the club," he said. "Those who love Auburn and cheer for Auburn are members of our Elmore County Auburn Club, so our doors are always open to fellow Auburn fans."

Only after carrying out a caste-based census and ascertaining the [fresh] quantum of reservation for the State will it be legally proper to resolve the issue of separate reservation [for Vanniyars or any such group], Chief Minister and Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam president M. Karunanidhi said on Thursday.
Counselling patience on this issue, Mr Karunanidhi said all those concerned should cooperate with each other and should not lose what was being enjoyed.
Responding to Pattali Makkal Katchi founder S. Ramadoss' demand for a separate quota for the Vanniyars, the Chief Minister said that under the recent interim order of the Supreme Court on the constitutional validity of the 1994 law on 69 per cent reservation, any move to provide separate reservation for Vanniyars and other such groups would be permissible only after undertaking the caste-based census. Otherwise, it would be against the law.
On the basis of the Supreme Court order, the State government had to provide necessary data to the State Backward Classes Commission, which would examine them and create the opportunity for determining the new quantum of reservation.
Commission's suggestion
The Commission had suggested that the State government approach the Central government for obtaining Rs. 400 crore, which was required to carry out the proposed Census in the State, the Chief Minister said.
While expressing his unwillingness to get drawn into the debate on the basis of Dr. Ramadoss' position that the Vanniyars could be provided 20 per cent quota on the lines of exclusive reservation for Arundathiyars and Muslims, Mr Karunanidhi, however, said it would not be appropriate to compare the two.
Initiative by DMK
Mr. Karunanidhi recalled the history of communal reservation in the State and explained a number of steps taken by the DMK regime in safeguarding the concept of reservation.
Keywords: caste-based reservation, PMK, vanniyar quota

2:As they had for decades, [brass bands] provided the music for the endless cycle of dances and parades in New Orleans, popularizing the startling fusion of influences and celebration that came to be hailed as the only original art form created in America. It would be hyperbole, if not false, to name jazz a child of Carnival; however the joyous license of the music owes more than passing acquaintance to the liberties of Mardi Gras and a population long-accustomed to dancing in the streets. - Mardi Gras: New Orleans, by Henri Schindler
3:A few months before the 1992 Carnival, a black city-council member named Dorothy Mae Taylor introduced an ordinance that would prohibit a parade permit to any group that discriminated on the basis of race or religion or gender.... In New Orleans, it had always been assumed that people would celebrate Carnival in their own way, whether it was by riding in the parade of an all-woman krewe or holding a ball-gown contest for men in drag. There was a widespread feeling that applying human-relations-commission rules to Carnival might not only rob it of its oldest parades but sink it altogether. - New Orleans Unmasked (The New Yorker magazine,February 2, 1998), by Calvin Trillin

Dynamo's Ching fined by MLS for Twitter comment
Ching fined for criticizing ref
Tweet during Dynamo match frowned upon
, Copyright 2009 Houston Chronicle |
July 16, 2009
Photo By Bob Levey/For the ChronicleBrian Ching did not partake in the match, nor was he present at Qwest Field. He was in Foxborough, Mass., following the match live on TV as he and the United States national team prepared to take on Haiti in Gold Cup competition.
Major League Soccer didn't use Twitter to fire this message to players and coaches, but it got its point across Thursday just the same: Beware what you tweet.
Dynamo forward Brian Ching was the first one to get it, along with a $500 fine for what the league deemed public criticism of an MLS official through a comment — or tweet — on the popular social networking site.
Ching's tweet to an audience of about 1,800 followers on Twitter: "Ref in Seattle just cheated the dynamo. What a joke. Not even close. Ref is a cheat."
Ching made the tweet during the Dynamo's 2-1 loss at the Seattle Sounders on Saturday. The match was marred by controversy after referee Mark Geiger upheld a questionable goal call in favor of the Sounders, the play Ching referred to in his tweet.
"Being a professional soccer player, especially in MLS, when you comment on the ref, as soon as I sent it, I knew there was a strong possibility that I'd get fined," Ching said via phone from Philadelphia, where he is with the U.S. team ahead of Saturday's Gold Cup semifinal against Panama. "I accept responsibility.
"I was watching the game as a fan, but because of my status on the team, I'm more than just a fan, and I realize that. I apologized the next day. I didn't even know who the referee was.
"The call upset me at the time. I made a mistake in writing something before I thought things through."
The goal by Fredy Montero, which appeared to be saved at the goal line with a flying kick by Dynamo defender Mike Chabala, tied the score at 1 in the first half. Geiger awarded the score after consulting with linesman Emiliano Monje, who ruled the ball had crossed the goal line before being deflected out, a must for a shot to be considered a goal under the rules of the game.
In other news
Galaxy down Red Bulls — David Beckham returned to Major League Soccer with a whisper, not a shout.
Playing in a stadium nearly three-quarters empty, the star midfielder was slow and had little role in Los Angeles' victory over New York in East Rutherford, N.J.
In his first match since the Italian League's season finale May 31, Beckham was often behind the play and seemed winded. He had no free-kick chances near the goal, didn't make any crosses that created threats and didn't even take all the Galaxy corner kicks while he was in the match.
U.S. loses players — The United States will be playing short-handed in Saturday's CONCACAF Gold Cup quarterfinal against Panama.
Four of the 23 players on the original U.S. roster have returned to their European clubs: forwards Charlie Davies (Sochaux) and Freddy Adu (Benfica), and defenders Steve Cherundolo (Hannover) and Michael Parkhurst (Nordsjaellands).
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

"I started my order on-line, but had a question, so I called the customer service number. The representative was very helpful and even saw something that I hadn't, so we were able to fix it right away. I'm very impressed with the quality of the card stock and I liked quite a few of the choices offered for what I needed. I will definitely use this company again for any printing needs I have."
"This was a great choice for a baby shower. Tiny prints was very accommodating. I requested a blue background and was very happy with the result. The invitation was perfect because of the bear graphic and quality of the product. People who received the invitation complimented the quality and thought the teddy bear was perfect. Very very happy with the invitation. Changes could be made easily to the text and service was superb."
"Personalizing this card is a breeze with some options to choose from lettering, colors and letter size. The quality of a paper is sturdy and printing is clear and no smudges around the letters. I will highly recommend this card to my friends who are planning for a baby shower."
"Quality of paper, design, color and printing surpassed my expectations. Personalization was easy and the free order double check for spelling and etiquette was reassuring. Communication regarding confirmation, printing, shipping and delivery was excellent. The order arrived well ahead of schedule and was perfect."
"Bought these for my nieces baby shower. Quality product! Has the professional look I was going for, but very reasonably priced. Arrived a few days before scheduled delivery which was an added plus!"

The petition for a hearing came after months of frustration, residents said. Neighbors have filed 42 complaints via the 311 system about the Museum since October, with 13 of them referred to the liquor agency, according to the system's records.
"I was told my first complaint was resolved, but obviously not. PLEASE deal with the noise situation," a complaint filed Nov. 11 reads.
When issues do come before the three-member liquor board — which oversees the inspectors — they are usually dealt with consistently, the state auditors found. Community association leaders said they think Chairman Steve Fogleman gives them a fair hearing.
Fogleman does not run the liquor agency day to day; that's Daniels' job. But Fogleman said the report's findings give him a "mandate for change."
He added that he strongly supported the board using the 311 system, an upgrade from a single cellphone line, and said that thousands of complaints had been successfully resolved.
Club Confetti in Upper Fells Point was called before the board late last month in response to multiple complaints about assaults and reported violations of liquor laws. Residents had called 311 about the establishment 23 times since October.
"Several guys drunk thrown out of the bar over 15 mins of yelling and banging on the door then the bar called the police," reads a complaint about the bar filed Nov. 18.
"At closing customers yelling and get into a fight where a guy punched another knowing [sic] him to the ground," another reads.
The club disputes the complaints. The owner of the bar, named in liquor-licensing records as Cristin Neal Adad, did not respond to requests for comment. Franklin Alvarado, a manager, said the bar was "taking care" of some problems.
A liquor board ruling on Club Confetti was postponed.
Bernhard mounted a campaign to get La Raza Cantina, an Eastern Avenue bar, closed down. Residents filed noise complaints via the 311 system, but in some cases inspectors later deemed them unfounded.
"We've had to go and do sleuthing to get pictures of live entertainment," Bernhard said. "We really are the police where [the inspectors] should be."
Bernhard said that might have been because the inspectors did not come out immediately, another common complaint among neighborhood activists. "There was an issue where there was loud noise reported on a Saturday evening [and] the liquor board inspector came out on a Monday afternoon before the bar even opened."
Noise is a problem for bars across Baltimore, but inspectors chose an unusual approach to dealing with it, auditors found. Although the board has a noise meter, inspectors chose to trust their ears instead, according to the audit.
The auditors were perplexed. "It would appear appropriate for [the board] to use objective, scientific equipment to determine the validity of noise complaints," they wrote.
In the end, La Raza's neighbors hired a lawyer and presented evidence in a two-hour hearing before the board in November.
The board took the bar's license away, but the owners appealed to Circuit Court, so the bar stayed open temporarily.
Jenny Mejia, who ran La Raza and is named on its liquor license, said neighbors had made a racially motivated decision to drive her out of business and made unfounded complaints.
"There wasn't no drug dealing in the building, there were no issues or anything apart from two incidents that happened outside the place," she said. "They were being racist."
Bernhard said race did not play a role in the community's opposition to the bar.
At the end of March, a Baltimore judge upheld the board's decision to revoke La Raza's license, but not before its owners had been fined $500 for selling a $5 glass of Wild Turkey whiskey to an underage police cadet in January.
An earlier version of this story erroneously attributed a quote to Victor Corbin, president of the Fells Prospect Community Association. It has been corrected here.

This letter is in response to the article which appeared in Monday's Norwalk Reflector regarding the Huron County Humane Society's Cutest Pet Contest. I felt it necessary to set the record straight regarding accusations made by Chezna Boswell.
First of all, my family looks forward to entering our pets in the contest each year. Because this contest is a FUNDRAISER for the shelter, we work hard to try and raise as much money as possible. We contacted and e-mailed friends and family all over the country and asked them to send in donations for our pets. We received several. I can assure you that every dollar submitted was legitimate. As a matter of fact, my 6-year-old twins decided to donate money that they received for their birthday to "their pets." I was not present for any of the vote tally and was not involved with the contest in any other way.
When notified that Ms. Boswell was upset over not placing first, I asked the Reflector to give Ms. Boswell the top spot. If Ms. Boswell gets satisfaction from knowing that her "Precious" won the contest, that is perfectly fine with me. I get my satisfaction from knowing that the abandoned and abused animals in Huron County have a safe place to go where they are well cared for.
I am personally insulted that Ms. Boswell would attack my integrity and the integrity of the other fine individuals that work so tirelessly to keep the doors of this fine facility open for the residents of Huron County.
Additionally, I would like the public to know that the first place winner receives $100. I intended to donate every penny of the winnings back to the shelter. I would challenge Ms. Boswell to do the same.

Roaming area or throw rugs can be annoying. Keeping them from slipping can be tricky depending on the surface they are on. This is a guide about keeping rugs from slipping.
Read and rate the best solutions below by giving them a "thumbs up".
My husband scored several new oriental style rugs. The problem is that the smaller area rugs slipped on our linoleum flooring. I solved that problem by buying an inexpensive roll of brown foam shelving liner and cutting it up into rectangles to put two under each rug at each end to anchor them. One cheap roll ($1.50) was enough for four area rugs.
Pamela M. from Hollywood, CA
To keep rugs from sliding: Instead of buying those expensive mats, you can use a roll of the rubber shelf liner you can buy at the dollar store.
By Carmen from Daytona Beach, FL
I can guarantee that this works. Rugs on hard floors stop slipping if you roll masking tape (the kind that vehicle painters use, which can be bought at any hardware store) at least 5 times around your hand and apply to each corner of the rug. The tape will not damage any tiles or even wooden flooring

What is a cheap or free way to get small rugs to stay in place on the floor? How about rugs? I appreciate any ideas, as my rugs are sliding and wrinkling and I don't have the money yet to get what I need. Thanks.
By Hilary from Boston, MA
I was going to suggest the rubber shelf/drawer liners that Omanana mentioned. I even used a wide one of those cut to fit to keep from slipping in my shower.
I have 15 rugs on my hardwood floors. I am trying to secure them from moving around especially with my four dogs. I tried almost everything I find in the stores, but nothing has worked.
By Cassidy
By Sandi/Poor But Proud [418]08/20/2014
Take each rug and put it on a table upside down. With a hot glue gun, make a "lazy S" around the edges and then crisscross several times in the center. Once dried, it will make a good non-slide backing. However, if for some reason the fabric doesn't like the glue I would try it with one rug first. Hope that helps.
I bought some rubber shelf padding to put under the rug, it works good, but it is such a pain when I have to lift the rug to set my dishwasher in place. Is there a spray to put on the back of none slip rugs?
By D M J
By Dinah Ackerson [2]02/25/2015
There are products that attach to the corners of rugs to reduce rug movement. Check online or at carpeting and big box stores like Home Depot and Lowes.
We have carpet in our kitchen (I know, crazy!). We have throw rugs in front of the range and sink. How can we keep them from creeping on the carpet?
By BJ
By Wilma H.07/27/2014
Lowe's has a roll of plastic with teeth you can buy as much as you want off roll in different colors, just wipe clean. Years ago mom had it down our long hallway.
I have a long rug runner over my wall to wall carpeting from my front door to my TV room to cut down on dirt being tracked into the house. The runner slides constantly. I tried a rubberized mat underneath, but it did not work. Any other suggestions? Thanks.
By Monica
By Helmut [8]07/28/2013
Double-sided rug tape won't help much. You need hook strips like the carpet layers use for anchoring wall-to-wall carpet. You nail or screw the strip through the carpet to the floor underneath. Don't worry about damage to the carpet. A few tiny nail holes won't make any difference and will never be visible.
Do that at both ends, hook the carpet at one end, then stretch it as hard s you can and hook it at the other end. Carpet layers use knee-kickers for stretching the carpet. You can rent those at Home Depot.
That method holds all your wall-to-wall carpets in place and is quite reliable.
Have fun!
I have a large braided rug in front of my door, on the hard wood flooring. It keeps sliding around everywhere except where I want it to stay?
By Lisa
By Laura Justice [2]01/16/2013
The rolled mats in dollar stores for shelf liners - are rubberized. Cut to fit the rug, or cut to place under where the foot meets the rug initially. Try that. Also works between mattress and box springs to keep them from sliding apart. Good stuff!
We have a runner leading into our living room. We bought the non-slip tape that you can get that attaches itself to the rug and then grips to the carpet, but that does not work for us. Our dog loves to run in that area (hence the rug), so we need something that will really keep it down. I'm doubtful about the shelf liner because the anti-slip tape has that kind of look and feel to it.

To keep things from slipping, I use the self sticking shelf paper. The one that is rubbery and you cut it to fit. It's sold next to the contact paper in housewares. I use it for carpets, mattresses, doormats, etc.
By susan [5]06/08/2006
Try craft stores. When I used to make hooked rugs, there was a spray-on type backing used for non-slip rugs. Just be sure to use it over a large sheet of paper, cardboard, etc, cause it won't come off of any surface that it accidently gets sprayed on.
By Willem (Guest Post)06/07/2006
I sewed rubber rings from canning glass jars under similar rugs and that stopped them from sliding all over.

- Submission demonstrates progress of plant-derived insulin program
scheduled to enter the clinic later this year -
TSX symbol: SBS
CALGARY, July 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ - SemBioSys Genetics Inc. (TSX:SBS), a biotechnology company developing a portfolio of therapeutic proteins for metabolic and cardiovascular diseases, today announced that it has submitted an Investigational New Drug (IND) application for safflower-produced recombinant human insulin to the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The IND application contains a physical, chemical and structural analysis of safflower-produced insulin to a reference standard, results from 28-day sub-chronic toxicology studies in two species of mammals, demonstration of pharmacodynamic function in animals and describes a cGMP process for the production of safflower-produced insulin. SemBioSys plans to initiate a Phase I/II clinical study of its safflower-produced insulin in the fourth quarter of 2008.
"The submission of the IND is a critical step toward the initiation of a Phase I/II clinical trial with our recombinant human insulin produced from safflower. All of our studies to date confirm that our safflower-produced insulin is equivalent to pharmaceutical-grade human insulin. We met our internal schedule to submit the IND and we are on track to begin human clinical trials in the fourth quarter of 2008 as planned," said Andrew Baum, president and chief executive officer of SemBioSys. "While we intend to initiate our first clinical trial for insulin in the UK, a successful IND application will provide us with the opportunity to consult the FDA on later stage clinical development. We believe this will allow us to apply for European and U.S. approvals for our safflower-produced insulin simultaneously."
SemBioSys also intends to submit a Clinical Trial Application (CTA) to
the appropriate European authorities later this quarter. Assuming approval
of the CTA, SemBioSys i
