Introducing :: Clive Brewing Methods Class
Published by Chris RyanOctober 7, 2013 7:31 pm
For the past 2 years here at Clive I've been helping to develop and teach a well regarded little 2 hour class on barista basics. We call it our Barista 101. This class has proven to be a wonderful 'head's up' experience for those with zero espresso background, but also is a good resource for those who've been doing home espresso for years, but had never gotten a personal lesson. And we love teaching these classes! It's so very rewarding to see folks' eyes light up with the simple techniques and ideas we're able to demonstrate, and then know that they can go home and immediately enjoy better espresso!
And yet, what about the rest of the ways people make coffee? It seems like there are more brewing options available to the home market than ever before. Some are old school, some are new…lots of how-to questions on each…so…
After much thought and preparation, we would like to announce a new educational endeavor here at Clive, our first ever Brewing Methods class! This class focuses exclusively on everything besides espresso, such as French Press, Aeropress, Chemex… Our goal is to de-mystify these brewing methods: to explain the how's and why's, during which we'll discuss the importance of the grind and the different type's of filters that are available. This class is participation heavy, so we are asking all the participants to be ready to talk, think, have fun, and drink a ton of coffee.
All participants in the class will receive a letterpress 12×17″ poster of our Brew Factors Infographic.
Also see the 2014 Chinook Book for a 50% off coupon for this class!

Coach Crean and Players Meet With The Media
Nov. 19, 2010
Head Coach Tom Crean along with Daniel Moore and Tom Pritchard met with members of the media to discuss Sunday's game against Evansville.
Here's what Coach Crean had to say:
Indiana head coach Tom Crean
On playing a lot of games in a short span early in the year:
"Well, we've tried to make sure that we understand we have another big stretch coming up on Sunday, Tuesday and Friday. We are looking down the long-range picture with that a little bit, but staying in the short term with getting your team better everyday and knowing that they are going to really have to bring it over a three-game period of time. The most important thing is to stay completely locked into playing Evansville on Sunday and I think that they are very locked in now."

Human Papillomavirus Viruses (HPV)
HPVs are transmitted during sexual activity through skin-to-skin contact with the penis, scrotum, vagina, vulva or anus of an infected person.
Anyone who engages in sexual activity, even without penetration, can get an HPV infection. It is the most common sexually transmitted infection (STI). Between 70% and 80% of men and women will be infected by an HPV at least once in their lifetime.
In most cases, people do not realize they have been infected by an HPV because there are no signs or symptoms. This means that they can pass on the virus without knowing it.
Often people have condylomas without knowing it because they are not always visible to the naked eye. Every year 14,000 men and women in Québec are diagnosed with condylomas. These ano-genital warts can require several visits to the doctor and painful treatments.
There are four ways to protect against HPVs. However, using only one at a time is not effective you need to do them all to have the best protection:
The vaccine does not contain HPVs and cannot cause infection. It stimulates the immune system to build defenses (antibodies) against these four HPVs. They offer no protection, however, against other sexually transmitted infections (STI).
No. The vaccine is a method of prevention that protects against the HPVs that cause 70% of cervical cancers and against the HPVs that cause 90% of ano-genital warts. Cervical cancer screening is the only way of detecting abnormal cells in the cervix that could later turn cancerous. Screening tests are unnecessary before the onset of sexual activity and rarely before the age of 21.
Québec's HPV vaccination program is offered to girls in Grade 4. Girls who did not receive the vaccine in Grade 4 can receive it free of charge in Secondary 3. Other girls under the age of 18 can be vaccinated free of charge by making an appointment at a CLSC or with their doctor and will need to receive three doses over a period of six months.
The vaccine is free for younger girls if they are at high risk of HPV infection and for women between the ages of 18 and 26 who are immunosuppressed or HIV positive.
Women age 18 years or older who have not initiated vaccination must pay the cost of the vaccine if they wish to receive it.
At the start of the program, the vaccine was solely intended to prevent cervical cancer, and so was given to girls only. Since that time, many scientific studies show that the vaccine also protects boys against condylomas and against a form of cancer of the anus associated with HPVs. We don't yet know if vaccinating males prevents cervical cancer in their female partners, but vaccinating a large portion of the female population results in fewer cases of condylomas for males. Canadian experts do recommend vaccinating boys against HPVs, but this is not free of charge in the majority of provinces, including Québec.
The objective of the vaccination program is to prevent cervical cancer and other illnesses associated with HPV.
Every year in Québec, an average of 281 women discover they have cervical cancer and 69 die of the disease. In reality many more women are affected. Around 53,000 women a year have to see a specialist for follow-up exams after a Pap test indicating abnormalities related to HPV. These clinical examinations can be unpleasant and stressful, and may require several visits. In some cases, they can even be painful (biopsy, colposcopy, removal of part of the uterus, etc.) and impact the woman's fertility.
The vaccine used in the vaccination program (Gardasil®) can also prevent most ano-genital warts (condylomata)—90% of which are caused by HPV 6 and 11, which are covered by the vaccine. Approximately 14,000 people are affected by HPV every year in Québec. As well as being embarrassing and unpleasant, ano-genital warts can require treatment spread over numerous doctor's appointments. For most people, the infection disappears on its own.
Québec's HPV vaccination program is offered to girls in elementary school Grade 4 for the following reasons:
Yes, as is the case with all vaccination programs, the HPV program is being systematically assessed. Assessment deals mainly with the program's effectiveness in achieving the objectives of reducing the spread of the disease, monitoring vaccine side effects, and determining the effectiveness of the extended schedule.
This program is not an isolated activity. It stands alongside other measures already in place to prevent sexually transmitted infections (STI) and to encourage safe, responsible sex practices. Indeed, various prevention and promotion actions, particularly in schools, very specifically target youth issues and situations related to sexuality they may encounter.
Moreover, efforts continue to go into screening for cervical cancer, since women who have had HPV vaccination still need to have a Pap test.
Vaccination has proven itself by reducing, even eradicating, certain serious diseases. The case of the HPV vaccine is no exception. To the contrary, it prevents, in particular, precancerous cervical lesions as well as genital warts (condylomata). Beyond the studies conducted on the vaccines, this protection has been confirmed in countries where vaccination has been implemented for several years, such as in Australia. Concerned with the health of the general public, Québec public-health authorities are encouraging young girls to receive the HPV vaccine—a recognized effective, safe means of protection—and encouraging their parents to support them.

Florida Education Association President Andy Ford - SB 736 is bad news for teachers and students
Lisa Marzilli, Beth Bell
Last Call Friday | Listen to this entire show:
On today's Last Call we spoke with Florida Education Association President Andy Ford about SB 736 which was approved by the Florida Legislature after fierce debate earlier this week. The bill, which will dramatically change the way public school teachers are evaluated and compensated now heads to Governor Rick Scott who has promised to sign it into law. A similar bill (SB 6) was passed last session but was vetoed by then Governor Charlie Crist after a thunderous outcry from teachers and their supporters.comments powered by Disqus

'The Preacher's Mistress': 'Chuck's' Sarah Lancaster travels down a dark path
"Chuck" alum Sarah Lancaster stars in Lifetime's newest original movie, "The Preacher's Mistress." Rife with all the drama a title like that suggests, Lancaster's character Gwen Griffith deals with many more problems than Ellie and Awesome ever had to deal with during the entire run of "Chuck."
In the new movie, Lancaster plays a single mother trying to get through her day-to-day while raising her son Alex. It doesn't help that her mother Ellen is constantly trying to match Gwen up with various men in the hopes she can find love. But Gwen can barely balance work, her son and the online classes she's taking until she meets her seeming Mr. Right, Ed Baker (Drew Waters), though he of course comes with a catch.
For Gwen, that catch means some major bad news. It turns out Ed is the preacher at a popular church and married with kids. Not a winning combination for Gwen's hopes for love, especially once Ed's wife -- an heiress, of course -- ends up dead. That's when Gwen finds herself at the center of the investigation surrounding the woman's death, all for unintentionally being the preacher's mistress.
That synopsis sounds like a home run for a Lifetime movie on paper, but did Lancaster carry the role? Tell us whether "The Preacher's Mistress" was all you'd hoped it would be.

How will Florida's battle with EPA over nutrient regulations affect Hillsborough?
Matthew Cimitile
WMNF Drive-Time News Thursday | Listen to this entire show:
The state of Florida is in a battle with thefeds over water quality. Hillsborough County is affected by the ongoing dispute over regulating nitrogen and phosphorus pollution in Florida.
In 2008, a Florida Department of Environmental Protection report determine that half the rivers and lakes in Florida were impaired because of nutrients. After getting no response from the state for a plan to clean up its waterways, the federal Environmental Protection Agency, or EPA, imposed numeric limits on the amount of nitrogen and phosphorus allowed in Florida waters. from nutrients. Richard Boler, environmental scientist for the Environmental Protection Commission of Hillsborough County, said because of a local uproar over EPAâs decision, the state petitioned the EPA to abandon its move and is now beginning to create its own nutrient rules.
âThe EPA told Florida DEP if you want to go ahead with rule making and get it done expeditiously we will consider those rules. So they have held public workshops and prepared drafts. Later this year those rules will go to Environmental Regulatory Commission and then hopefully ratified by the State Legislature in 2012. Assuming all that goes through, EPA will either delay implementation for another several months or defer and withdraw its numeric nutrient criteria.â
Regardless of who may implement the nutrient criteria, local agriculture, industry and government are concerned that the new rules will be costly. During today's Environmental Protection Commission meeting, EPC board member and Hillsborough County Commissioner Kevin Beckner questioned Boler about how many water bodies may be impaired under any new criteria.
âDo we know the proposed metrics they are looking to institute, and if those go into effect how many waterways would be impaired here and how many would we have to start considering allocating resources to clean those up to stay in compliance?â
âMany of the water bodies in the Alafia River failed the test for nitrogen, the Alafia River absolutely fails the test for phosphorus. To meet the numbers, the entire river at this point would fail to meet the phosphorus standard.â
Hillsborough's County Environmental Protection Commission is studying what impact Tampaâs new fertilizer rule restricting summertime use of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers will have on reducing impaired water bodies in the region.comments powered by Disqus

Surviving the School Year
This is the time of year when students are stricken with spring fever and teachers are experiencing the pressures of the end of the year. High stakes testing is imminent, and everyone's pushing to meet goals and complete the curriculum. So how do we all survive? How do we make sure grades don't drop, graduation requirements are met, students keep up? •Stick to your routine – at home and in school. Continue to adhere to bedtimes, study times, and reading times. Don't fall for "It's the end of the year so we don't have homework." Chances are there is more, not less, to do as teachers are under pressure to reach a specific goal in all subject areas. •Help your kids by providing a healthful diet. All students in grades 3-8 will be taking the MSP (Measurement of Student Progress) in May. They need to do their best, and a healthy diet and exercise plan and appropriate rest will help them. All sophomores will be taking End of Course tests, and passing these tests is a graduation requirement. •Remind them that their priority remains making their best effort in school. Summer will arrive soon enough, and that's the time to stay up a little later, sleep in, play most of the day. •If you think they aren't bringing home as much work or exerting as much effort, you're probably right. Ask to see all work and encourage them to bring home all books. •If you aren't already, check their grades every week, before there is a chance of dramatic losses. Contact the teachers if you have any questions or concerns. The end of the year is typically a time when large projects are due. Make sure your student is working toward completion. There is a lot of learning going on this time of year. Make sure your students are actively participating. Then the summer will be better appreciated and the Fall will be an easier transition.

Gangs across the country are arming themselves with powerful weapons to bilk taxpayers out of billions of dollars through Medicare fraud. What used to be a mostly non-violent, white collar crime has turned potentially deadly, and Federal agents who once combed through paperwork are now firing rounds at the shooting range to prepare for extreme dangers.
"Our folks are out there engaging a criminal element that is dangerous," said Jay Hodes, an agent with the Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General.
For more on this story, watch Pierre Thomas' report tonight on 'World News with Diane Sawyer' on ABC.
Medicare fraud has become very big business for gangs, members of the Mafia and other thugs. One estimate suggests that criminals steal some $60 billion from the federal government via healthcare fraud every year.
They commit the fraud by recruiting people with clean records who then apply for Medicare vendor licenses. Websites walk them through the process, step-by-step.
"It's so easy to steal from Medicare and Medicaid, it attracts a violent criminal element so they can cash in on their schemes," said Tim Menke, the chief of investigations for the HHS Office of the Inspector General.
Schemes include setting up phony medical equipment companies which then rip off taxpayers by billing for services never rendered and equipment never actually delivered.
Many of the criminals are armed to the teeth to enforce their authority. Undercover surveillance footage shows members of an Armenian gang in Los Angeles as they confront an accomplice suspected of skimming their profits in a $30 million Medicare fraud scheme. The gang members threatened to kill the man.
"You and me, we're going to have a war tonight," said a man on the tape. "Two hundred thousand [expletive] dollars, it really matters."
"We are seeing a variety of different groups who are attracted to healthcare fraud," said Menke. "In California, we see Armenians. In Texas we see Nigerians. In Florida, Cubans. And in the Northeast we'll see Ukranians and Russians."
According to the government, the groups across the country will beat or threaten witnesses to prevent them from testifying against them. They don't hesitate to bribe or threaten patients in order to get them to submit false claims, and they back up those threats with paramilitary-style high powered weapons, including 50 caliber sniper rifles. At one so-called medical equipment company in Dallas, a huge weapons cache was discovered with approximately 60 assault weapons.
As part of one investigation into a Medicare fraud case, a search of a doctor's property in the Northeast turned up explosives and landmines, and authorities have seized dozens of rifles and handguns in San Francisco from a facility operated by a gun runner who worked with a Mexican cartel.
The exotic weapons that Health and Human Services investigators have collected look like something out of a Hollywood blockbuster -- pistols that shoot like machine guns and other special equipment. Medicare fraud has turned into an arms race.

San Francisco approves purchase of 45 new hybrid electric buses
11 September 2012
The Board of Directors of the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (SFMTA), which oversees all transportation in the city, including the Municipal Railway (Muni), recently approved the purchase of 45 new hybrid electric 40-foot buses from New Flyer Industries. These new vehicles will replace 13-year-old buses currently in service.
Pending final approval from the Board of Supervisors, the SFMTA expects to have a prototype on the road next winter for a month long test in regular passenger service. All 45 new buses are expected to arrive by the end of summer 2013.
In order to expedite the purchasing process, the SFMTA joined a current, competitively bid vehicle contract with the State of Minnesota. The vehicles specified under the Minnesota contract were updated to include features necessary for San Francisco's unique operating environment and high passenger loads. The total vehicle cost will be approximately $33.8 million or $752,000 per vehicle and is funded through federal, state, and local support.
The SFMTA is pursuing replacement and rehabilitation programs on all buses, light rail vehicles, and historic streetcars. Within the next two years, SFMTA expects to purchase 60 articulated trolley buses to replace current 20-year-old vehicles. These programs directly support the agency's two-year budget, focusing on maintenance and infrastructure improvements.

Listed below are links to weblogs that reference San Francisco approves purchase of 45 new hybrid electric buses:
Articulated hybrid or e-buses, to reduce the number of progressively very costly ($122K/year/each) unionized drivers by 50% would be a wise decision.
Currently, over the normal life (15 years) of a city bus, the drivers cost (5 x $122K x 15) = $9,150,000 or about 12 times the initial cost of the bus. Articulated buses can reduce that cost by almost 50%.
Another advantage is that frequency and city streets traffic load and pollution are also reduced.
Ideally, bus operators could do like airlines. Use smaller feeder buses to bring passengers to/from hubs and larger articulated buses from hub to hub.
Harvey, I'm not sure that passengers would agree that less frequent buses are desirable...
Here in Philly, we have some hybrid buses and one of the huge advantages of them, besides the obvious one of consuming less fuel, is that they are much quieter on start-up. The old buses take a lot of power to get moving from a stand-still after stopping to pick up passengers or just at a stop sign where there's no bus stop. Some of them are horrifyingly loud. The hybrids make roughly 1/4 as much noise. If you're sitting at a sidewalk cafe at a corner trying to have a conversation, this difference is very noticeable and very much appreciated.
In many parts of San Francisco, they are using trolley buses (buses powered by overhead lines) which are very quiet compared to their diesel/nat-gas counterparts.
Drawback of course is having to maintain the overhead lines...
We used to have those in Philly and we used to have a lot of trolleys with tracks too. We still have some trolleys with tracks and one trolley line that was recently restored, but mostly we have buses. The upfront infrastructure cost is a lot less. The main problem with buses in Philly is that the buses get through traffic very slowly. Biking is often faster, and for shorter distances, walking is faster. There are various ways to speed up buses, some of which have been implemented in other cities. I'm no expert on that topic, but if somebody could figure out how to speed up the buses in Philly it would make a lot of people happier.
Hydraulic hybrids could save half the fuel at far lower costs. ..HG..
E-buses are a great idea in Fan Fran. The hills are murder on the power curve of an IC engine but electric motors can chug on through that like a champion.

North Dakota 4-H season is in full swingThe new 4-H year is in full swing. Youth are looking into the new projects that became available this year and striving to perfect old ones.
By: Deb Hatlewick, NDSU Extension Service, The Jamestown Sun
The new 4-H year is in full swing. Youth are looking into the new projects that became available this year and striving to perfect old ones.
On Nov. 1, Stutsman County 4-H members and leaders will be recognized for their achievements this past year. The event will take place at Immanuel Lutheran Church beginning at 3 p.m. Achievement awards will be given in the areas of project medals, I Dare You, Key Club, Leaders Years in Service and Alumni. The event is sponsored by several local businesses.
For volunteers, three North Dakota 4-H Volunteer Project Trainings sessions are available in Northeast, Southeast and Southwest. 4-H volunteers are welcome to attend any location. Dates for these trainings are: 5:30-8:30 p.m. Nov. 10, Forman (N.D.) School; 6-9 p.m. Nov. 16, Sharon Lutheran Church, 1720 S. 20 St., Grand Forks; and 5-8 p.m. Nov. 17, Beulah (N.D.) Community Center.
Each location will have different 4-H project-related workshops based on feedback from the host county's 4-H leaders input. Some of these workshops include horticulture and floral arranging, 4-H animal projects, outdoor skills, photography, 4-H leadership opportunities, citizenship and service learning, communication arts, etc. The registration cost for the training is $3 per person. This training is sponsored by a grant from Monsanto and National 4-H Council. Visit www.ndsu.edu/4h/volunteers/ to download the promotional brochures that contain registration forms for each location.
Congratulations to Sophie Miller, Montpelier Pioneers 4-H Club, on being selected as a delegate to the 2010 National 4-H Conference held at the National 4-H Center in Chevy Chase, Md., from March 20-25, 2009. This is just one of the many trips available to 4-H youth — for more information on these opportunities give me a call.
Several volunteers are working towards certification to work with youth in the areas of archery and shotgun. A shooting sports day camp is in the planning stages for the summer of 2010.
A recent study by Tufts University shows that 4-H successfully strengthens young people, their families and their communities. Results of the study show that young people who participate in 4-H usually attain higher grades, continue their education by attending college, and are less likely to engage in risky behaviors like drinking and smoking. Isn't that a good reason to be in 4-H?
Anyone interested in joining 4-H may contact the Stutsman County NDSU Extension Office located at 116 1/2 East First Street or call 701-252-9030. Check out our Web site at: http:// miv.ext.nodak.edu:8000/Plone/stutsmanextension

Hopefully when I get home from work I can knock it out rather quickly and slap the bike back together. Im hoping HARD that I havnt screwed up and drilled untrue.
ANYWAY now that I'm doing this Im wondering if anybody have any Doohickey tools lying around that they would part with. Figured Id just knock everything out while I'm at it. I'd pass them on when I'm done with them as they pretty much are once use tools from what I understand.
I did the drill through earlier this year, dam hard to drill straight and true that's for sure. Mine was not quite true but I was able to tap the bolt through and everything has seemed fine since. I plan to tear the bike down this winter for some maintenance and possibly some upgrades I will check it then. Make sure to upgrade the bolts on the lower braces as well while you are at it.
However, I am not complaining because I know that I am probably better today then I will be tomorrow, so I try and enjoy every day as it comes, and stay determined to live well and be appreciative of what I still can do..."Stromsurfer"

DES MOINES – The outgoing leader of Iowa's Public Employee Relations Board alleged Thursday he was pressured by Gov. Terry Branstad's top aides to hire an administrative judge who would be pro-employer in workplace disputes – a charge the governor called unfounded and politically motivated.
PER Board Chairman Jim Riordan, a former Democratic state senator from Waukee, told members of the Senate Government Oversight Committee he feared for his livelihood and his board's future funding if he did not go along with a demand to add Robert D. Wilson as a PERB administrative law judge.
"I felt that there was a gun to my head, you know: 'Do this or you're going to have big consequences,'" said Riordan, who is slated to leave his $96,500-a-year state post on April 30 after 14 years.
Riordan said Jeff Boeyink, Branstad's former chief of staff, and the governor's current legal counsel Brenna Findley threatened to reduce PERB funding if the three-member board did not hire the former Polk County district judge to a state post that considered employer-worker complaints. He said all the communications were verbal and there was no "email trail" so it would only be other board members who could corroborate what transpired.
In hindsight, Riordan said, he wished he would have "faced up to my fear" and resisted the pressure but he didn't because he feared that the board's staff would be reduced and salaries would be cut. The aftermath was a work environment filled with negativity and tension once Wilson joined the staff, he said.
Shortly after the two-hour Oversight Committee hearing concluded, Branstad's office issued a statement refuting that either Boeyink or Findley "pressured" PER Board members to hire Wilson, noting he was an at-will employed who could be removed if the board wasn't satisfied with his work.
"I think it's very disappointing that somebody who didn't get reappointed to the PER Board would make these kinds of false allegations," Branstad told reporters after a Statehouse proclamation signing ceremony Thursday afternoon.
"I think it's kind of interesting that the day after his successor was conformed to be on the board that Mr. Riordan, who's a former Democratic senator, would make this kind of unfounded accusation. This kind of politics I think really doesn't have any place," the governor added.
To further refute Riordan's testimony, the governor's office noted that PERB's budget was increased from $854,386 to $1,057,871 effective five months before Wilson's hire and is $290,549 higher than it was in fiscal 2010. Branstad's staff also voluntarily released all emails from Boeyink, Findley and PERB members to show there was no "pressure" to hire Wilson or attempt to influence decisions.
Riordan's charge that his board was forced to hire a judge who had been hand-picked by Branstad's staff came as part of an ongoing legislative look at state hiring practices, contractual arrangements and employee settlements paid to laid-off state employees – some including pay-for-silence confidentiality agreements that drew an executive order from Gov. Terry Branstad and resulted in the firing of former DAS Director Mike Carroll.
Senate Majority Leader Mike Gronstal, D-Council Bluffs, said the unfolding revelations and the governor's responses have convinced majority Democrats that they have to keep digging "to get to the bottom of this."
Responding to Branstad's pronouncements Thursday, Gronstal said: "Unfounded like the fact that his department director lied to him and his committee? At this point we do not trust the governor when he says something is unfounded. That's convenient for the governor to say it's partisanship. Well, this partisanship led to him thinking it was necessary to fire his department director."
GOP lawmakers continue to call on the Democrat-run Senate to take up House File 2642, a bill designed to expanding openness, transparency and accountability in state government by making provisions of Branstad's recent executive order in response to the secret settlement revelations part of state law.
"We have five days left in this legislative session. We can work together and bring forward bipartisan legislation to protect workers and create a more transparent government. Or, we can continue to play to the cameras, sling mud and fail to act," said Senate GOP Leader Bill Dix of Shell Rock.
"Senate Republicans are ready to act. We understand Iowans deserve solutions, not showboating," Dix said during a Senate floor speech Thursday.
During Thursday committee hearing, senators also heard testimony today from Michelle Minnehan, DAS human resources enterprise chief operating officer, who explained the appeal process former state employees can use if they discover they're wrongly on a "do not rehire" list and want their names removed.
Minnehan also said about 2 percent of the workers in the executive branch of state government who had been classified as "merit employees" have been reclassified as "at will" employees, meaning they can be fired at any time.
Often those positions aren't advertised or posted, which she said was best practices, but she noted that referrals also are an accepted way to recruit employees. Minnehan said her past association with DAS administrator David Woodley led to her being referred for her current $130,000-a-year position.

On the job training for Will JohnsonPosted by on August 11, 2012 – 6:00 pm
A week ago fullback Will Johnson was fighting for a spot on the Steelers roster, hoping to make an impact on special teams and as a back-up to fullback David Johnson.
But after David Johnson injured his ACL against the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday night, Will Johnson was thrown into the spotlight.
"It's unfortunate to have to fulfill the role, but I am more than ready to step up and do what I have to do," said Johnson. "I am very excited, even though he won the spot I was excited to fulfill my role on special teams and help as much as I can.
"I like to say everything happens for a reason. I am excited for the opportunity. I am not happy he went down this way but I am definitely looking forward to it."
Johnson said after reviewing film the coaches felt he did well and in his words, "I think I will be the starting fullback moving forward."
Johnson played for West Virginia University from 2007-10, but went unsigned by any team for the 2011 season. He spent time in Charlotte North Carolina, working out and getting in shape.
He got permission from West Virginia to attend their Pro Day in 2012, impressing Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert and Coach Mike Tomlin in the process and getting signed two days later.
"They told me they were impressed with what I did as far as speed and strength and told me they wanted to sign me," said Johnson. "They said they didn't want to make it public at that time until I passed the physical."
Two days later, he signed with the Steelers. Not bad for a guy who last season was working three jobs, including two landscaping jobs and in the shipping and fulfillment warehouse for Elder Beerman.
"It's definitely a blessing. It's a lot better," said Johnson. "Working those jobs helps you find yourself deep down inside. This is something I really wanted to do. You put all of your effort in to train, stay up a little later and work and it's paying off."

Share this secret shopping scamJuly 12th, 2011 at 10:37 am by Christine Bethea under 10 On Your Side, Scam Alert
Being a secret shopper sounds like a quick and fun way to earn a little extra money on the side. However, The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) reports that some marketer's promises are not all they're cracked up to be. There are some secret shopper scams out there that if you're not careful, instead of making money, you'll be paying money. Here are just two common secret shopper scams I've heard about-
- You receive a check via FedEx made payable to you. It's from a company who supposedly wants you to "hire" you as a secret shopper. You'll think the check is up-front shopping money because, according to the instructions, you are to deposit the check and use the exact amount of funds to shop. You'll find out later that the check was fraudulent and you will be responsible for paying the bank back.
- You're "hired" to evaluate a money transfer service. You'll receive a check that you are to deposit and then wire a specified amount of money via Western Union or MoneyGram to a third party. Again, you'll find out later that the check was fraudulent and you will be responsible for paying the bank back.
Calling the bank to verify the check is a good idea, but don't count solely on that being the determining factor of you depositing the check. The issuer of the check could have a valid account, but no money to back the funds. Even if they do, the funds may not be there by the time YOUR check is deposited.
As you can see, the checks look real. They are for large sums of money. They can be very tempting.
There was one lady who was sent "shopping money" because she'd inquired online how to become a secret shopper. She'd asked that more information on how to become a great secret shopper be mailed to her house. Instead, she started to receive checks made payable to her…..
Bottom line here….NEVER deposit a check from someone you don't know!

"UNST, a parish in the Orkney and Shetland islands, Scotland. It comprises the most northerly of the Shetland Isles, including Unst, Uya, Balta, and many smaller islands, as the Skerries, off Skaw Head, and the Outstack rock, being the most northerly point of the British Isles. It is of an oblong form, extending from N.N.E. to S.S.W.; in length about 11½ miles, with a mean breadth of about 3½ miles. The coast is rocky, and is indented by bays and creeks. In the W. and N. the headlands sometimes reach an altitude of 400 feet. On an outlying conical rock 201 feet in height was erected in 1858 a tower 60 feet high, which serves as a lighthouse, 4 miles from Burra Fiord."

Dow offers to buy 50 dioxin-contaminated properties
February 16, 2012
MIDLAND, Mich. — Dow Chemical Co. is offering to purchase about 50 properties near its chemical plant, where airborne emissions contaminated the soil with dioxin, according to a press release.
In recent years, Dow has admitted to polluting 50 miles of rivers and floodplains in Michigan with dioxin, a byproduct of chemical manufacturing, for much of the past century.
Dow will donate acquired properties to Midland Tomorrow, the nonprofit economic development entity serving Midland County.
"We see this as an opportunity to address land use near our manufacturing site and give people still living in this industrial/commercial area the choice to move elsewhere," said Rich A. Wells, vice president and site director for Dow's Michigan Operations.

Applied Design
March 2, 2013–January 31, 2014
Another World is a cinematic platformer game: the main character jumps and runs from platform to platform to avoid obstacles and keep moving forward. The player controls the central character, Lester (a human physicist displaced to an alien planet by an experiment gone awry), who can move forward, jump, or fight using his weapon, a laser pistol that has three functions: shooting, generating force fields, and penetrating walls. The game ends if either Lester or his alien friend is shot. Nothing external to the world is displayed on the screen (such as score or energy gauge), reinforcing the engagement of the player with the unfolding action. The characters communicate nonverbally, via gestures and actions, a rare feat in video games. With its groundbreaking use of advanced effects in sound and editing as well as graphics, the game has been acclaimed for its unique atmosphere and minimalist aesthetic. Chahi developed Another World independently, thus maintaining almost total creative control of the game, from its story to its box cover, and devoting painstaking attention to details.

COLLEGE STATION In a matter of weeks, the stands of Kyle field will be swaying with Aggies, but tickets to see the Aggies play are getting harder to come by.
"I know, especially for the Alabama game, people are selling them for around $600," said Texas A&M student Sean D'Souza. The senior is thinking about selling his student sports pass if he can't make it to a game.
"The Alabama game is going to be one of the prime games, not only of A&M, but of all of college Football. If it comes down to that, I would sell mine for a higher price."
Britta Vorhies has already sold her pass for the Auburn game for the low price of $100. One online site is asking twice as much.
"You need to sell it for a good price because that's what it's worth," Vorhies said.
She said this is a steal compared to the Alabama game, where some asking prices are $5,000.
Old Ags who've been going to the games for decades might be surprised to find out that students sell their sports passes as a way to make a quick buck.
"It's just not the typical aggie family to sell your sports pass, but just hand it to someone as a gift," Vorhies said.
The senior said times have changed. She said it's hard to sell her sports pass after going to almost all of the home games, but the extra cash will help pay for school.
"With these economic times, I think that for certain games it is necessary," Vorhies said. "For other games like Rice, not so much."
Vorhies said it's worth selling her sports pass to give someone else the chance to be a part of the best student section in college football.

Long road winds up at home for Padres first baseman Tony Clark
But those who saw Clark shoot a basketball wonder if he couldn't have rivaled UCLA and Pacers star Reggie Miller.
"Tony Clark was the best pure outside shooter I ever saw in my 20 years at SDSU," said John Rosenthal, the school's sports information director at the time. "It's just a shame his chronic back problems prevented him from seeing much game action.
"Tony would routinely finish practice by shooting jumpers from midcourt and seemed to connect at about a 50 percent pace. The thing that amazed me is that he could do this from that distance with what seemed like just a flick of his wrist."
Said Clark: "I wonder sometimes if I hadn't hurt my back or if, after I injured my back, I had redshirted that year and taken care of some things physically and otherwise, and not had the surgery -- how would I have responded if I would have been physically capable? I play that game sometimes.
"But as I sit here, I'm in my 14th year in the major leagues. I am content with how everything turned out. I know everything turned out the way it did for a reason. I am the man I am today because of the things I experienced and worked through. That being said, I still feel like I can be a better baseball player tomorrow than I am today."
