Alderson's Store is a rare historic structure and a third generation family owned women's clothing shop that is nestled in the quaint town of Alderson, West Virginia. It features beautiful Art Deco Architecture and design.
As a boy, he worked in the back of the store, picking flies off the butter or flicking sprouts from the spuds. "When I was a little kid coming to the store, I did most of my work in the back room. We'd have maybe 200 bushels of potatoes back there. About this time of year they'd be sprouting. I'd have to sit there and get the sprouts out of them before they be shipped to the mining companies."
His father bought butter from area farmers and shipped it to Baltimore. "In that day and time, we had no refrigeration. The butter would get bad. It would even get flies in it. I'd have to sit there and pick the flies off the butter before it could be shipped to Baltimore."
Eighty-seven-year-old John Marshall Alderson III, great-great-great grandson of the town's first settler, still works in the back of Alderson's store, tending books and sending statements, lending a lifetime of experience to a century-old retailing tradition.
"I don't remember not working in the store," said the soft-spoken, snowy haired proprietor. "My father organized the store in 1887. It was next to the Presbyterian church down there. The church parking lot was out parking lot for horses and buggies and wagons. We had the only place in the area where you could come and put your horses." Sitting at his roll-top desk in the "new" store, a dignified dry goods emporium that replaced the original Alderson's more than 50 years ago, he talks easily about the old general store, one memory feeding another, enjoying the reverie.
"We had everything a store could sell. Patent medicines, glassware, dishware, tinware, enamelware, shoes. We had from here to that window there in piece goods. And there was men's clothing of all kinds. Everything but dress clothes. My father's brother had a men's store so we didn't compete. "We even sold crossties to the railroad," he added. "Every few days we'd get truckloads of ties. I'd go out and put JMA on those ties and store them down by the depot." Area farmers were major suppliers. "We bought everything the farmers had to sell; eggs, butter, apples, chestnuts. One year we shipped a whole truckload of chestnuts to Baltimore. Eggs were a dime a dozen." Literally. "I sold many a dozen eggs for 10 cents," he said. "We had a standing order every week for 60 cases of eggs that went to the coal fields."
Stalled twice in his quest for a business degree at the University of Richmond, first when he was called home by his father's illness and later by a stint in World War I, Alderson finally gave up on college and became an official store employee. "I'd been interrupted too much." he said. "I told my father I wanted to work in the store, I never intended to go anyplace but the store." He started at the grand sum of $75 a month. "I took the place of two men." he said proudly. "When I came home, my father had two men helping him in the store. He fired them. One was even his brother-in-law. But he said he wouldn't need them since I was going to be home."
It was young Alderson who came up with the merchandising brainstorm that changed the store's personality. "I got us started in the dress business, I'd order dresses on approval from a New York house. Then I'd send out about 50 postcards telling people I'd just received dresses. I'd sell maybe half of them right off the bat because no body in Alderson sold ready-made dresses."
"We commenced to selling so many dresses, that's the reason we went to the second floor. The upstairs was just storage, but we put in a stairway and put in ladies' wear and coats, on the order of what we carry today."
The only other major change at Alderson's occurred in 1930 when the old store was destroyed by fire. "The fire broke out around midnight, the night before Thanksgiving. It about killed me to stand there and watch it burn." But Alderson's hardly skipped a beat. We rented a building down the street. I immediately got on the railroad. First I went to Baltimore and did some shopping there. Then I went to New York and bought dresses/ Within two weeks, we were back in business."
A restaurant was moved to the old store site to make room for a new building closer to the center of town. "We cut out groceries and changed the type of store entirely. My dad was willing to do it. He was about ready to turn the store over to me anyway. We couldn't afford to have all the things we had in the old store. Times were changing. It had got to the point where more than half the business we were doing at the old store was up on the second floor where I had the dresses and coats and brassieres."
Today the study structure of carved Indiana limestone seems untouched by time. Except for a necessary nod at the vagaries of women's fashion, the store has remained mostly as it was in the early 1930s from the vintage lights to the walls and fixtures of carved solid walnut. Remodeling was never considered, he said. "We get more comments on it the way it was." The old Burouges adding machine hints at the history of the place. "That thing's been around at least since the fire," Alderson said. He doesn't put much faith in such new fangled contraptions. "I add everything up on the machine, then do it over myself to make sure it's right. I have more trust in myself."
He likes the old way of doing things. "I'm, still the old store, I don't change, I'm going to do business like I've always done business. I have plenty of customers who owe me $100, $300, even $500. But I don't charge them interest. I never collected a nickel from anybody. I never sued a man in my life. When my dad had the store a lot of the farmers never paid anything but once a year. A grandchild of one of our original customers shops here now. She said her father told her to always by at Alder son's because Mr. Alden was nice enough to let them have things when they couldn't afford it."
Slowed only slightly by age, Alder son works five hours a day, six days a week. He sill does all the buying, traveling to market shows in Charleston and Bluefield, selecting merchandise, filing it all in his head without taking a single note. "I don't know how much I'm spending," he explained, "but I know I have plenty to pay for it."
Hunched over the huge oak rolltop desk that once belonged to the president of Alderson Baptist College, now Alderson-Broaddus, he does tax reports, places orders, writes checks and sends out statements. About the only thing Alderson doesn't do at Alderson's is wait on customers. "These days I think the women would rather have one of the girls wait on them," he said. "Twenty years ago, they all wanted me to do it. They knew I knew what we had or when it would be in. They knew I knew more about the store because I'd spent a lifetime working in it."
They say John Alderson Knew everything, even the size of his customers' underpants. He recalls the customer who wanted to buy her what size underpants she wore, she said, "Oh, I don't know. Ask Mr. Alderson." She wasn't sure herself, but she knew I'd know.
Even after all this time, "only 68 years counting from the day I went on the payroll." the town's retailing graddaddy isn't about to retire. The store's 100th birthday next year is reason enough to stick around, he said. What happens to Alderson's is in the hands of his son, an attorney with State Farm. "Ive willed the store to him lock, stock and barrel. H can do with it what he wants, even get rid of it. It's all up to him." (Taken from Sandy Wells, interview with John Alderson III)

The Lomborg Deception

In this major assessment of leading climate-change skeptic Bjørn Lomborg, Howard Friel meticulously deconstructs the Danish statistician's claim that global warming is "no catastrophe" by exposing the systematic misrepresentations and partial accounting that are at the core of climate skepticism. His detailed analysis serves not only as a guide to reading the global warming skeptics, but also as a model for assessing the state of climate science. With attention to the complexities of climate-related phenomena across a range of areas—from Arctic sea ice to the Antarctic ice sheet—The Lomborg Deception also offers readers an enlightening review of some of today's most urgent climate concerns.
Friel's book is the first to respond directly to Lomborg's controversial research as published in The Skeptical Environmentalist (2001) and Cool It: The Skeptical Environmentalist's Guide to Global Warming (2007). His close reading of Lomborg's textual claims and supporting footnotes reveals a lengthy list of findings that will rock climate skeptics and their allies in the government and news media, demonstrating that the published peer-reviewed climate science, as assessed mainly by the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, has had it mostly right—even if somewhat conservatively right—all along. Friel's able defense of Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth against Lomborg's repeated attacks is by itself worth an attentive reading.
Thomas E. Lovejoy is president of the H. John Heinz III Center for Science, Economics and the Environment. He coedited the groundbreaking and critically acclaimed "Global Warming and Biological Diversity, "published in 1992. Lee Hannah is senior climate change biologist, Center for Applied Biodiversity Science, Conservation International.

Drunk gets in unmarked Pa. police car with officers inside
Police say the woman sat in the driver's seat and told the two plainclothes officers that she intended to drive the vehicle to where she was parked
Associared Press
PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh police say a drunken woman tried to drive away in an unmarked police car — with two officers still inside.
According to a criminal complaint, 32-year-old Ria Buford got into the car at about 2:15 a.m. Saturday outside a nightclub that was hosting a party after the Wiz Khalifa concert.
Police say she sat in the driver's seat and told the two plainclothes officers in the back that she intended to drive the vehicle to where her own was parked.
Police say Buford was arrested before she could drive anywhere. A man who intervened in her arrest was also charged.
Online court records don't list an attorney for Buford. She faces a preliminary hearing Thursday on charges of robbery of a motor vehicle, disorderly conduct and public drunkenness.

Yantoh → Wiki
Home recorded Yantoh on a four-track machine in Hampton one sunny summer afternoon in 1984. He'd gone to record a backing track for a performance piece and had a bit of time left over, so he wrote this ditty about the Neoist Wonder Dog on the spot. Yantoh may be Welsh for 'old boy' or might mean something very rude indeed ~ Home isn't letting on. The use of digital delay on the vocals is completely overdone, Home had never had the opportunity to play with this effect before and better songs have been ruined by self indulgence of this type.

What landed Jesus on the cross was the preposterous idea that common, ordinary, broken, screwed-up people could be godly! What drove Jesus' enemies crazy were his criticisms of the "perfect" religious people and his acceptance of the imperfect nonreligious people. The shocking implication of Jesus' ministry is that anyone can be spiritual. Scandalous? Maybe.
How can the inner workings of the heart be changed from a dynamic of fear and anger to that of love, joy, and gratitude? Here is how. You need to be moved by the sight of what it cost to bring you home.
The Beauty of Approachability
When I was 16 years go I got my first job busing tables at a Goldie's Restaurant in my hometown. This job involved removing half-eaten food from tables, waiters that wouldn't share their tips, cleaning the bathrooms, and just about every other conceivable disgusting thing in the restaurant business. But I've always remembered one thing from my 4 nights of employment. (Are you surprised? Of course I quit after 4 days!)
I guess I wasn't exactly hiding my dissatisfaction with my chores, and my boss pulled me into his office to tell me to smile more. I laughed at his request and then he got in my face and told me that to work for his restaurant I had to look approachable, and if I was walking around looking upset; that nobody would ever ask for my help…and then there was the potential that an unhappy customer might leave the restaurant. That right there is some truth!
So fast forward almost 20 years and that advice still stands! Every Sunday morning as I walk in and through the areas of my church, I'm interacting with a customer of sorts. Not the kind of customer that is buying something, but the kind that has a need that needs to be filled. I don't know what those needs are, but I need to work to be as approachable as possible. Sometimes it's being approachable to tell someone where they can find a particular place on our campus. Other times it's being able to reward the bravery of a child that wants you to pray with them.
Here are the ways I work to always make people feel welcome.
- Smile. This is the simplest one. Simply smile. A simple smile always disarms even the most frustrated person. And here's a little secret about the power of a smile…it can cover whatever turmoil you may be going through in the moment. Have you ever heard this saying, "Fake it, 'til you make it!"? Just because you don't feel like smiling, isn't a good enough reason to frown!
- Look Around. I work every weekend to not always look at myself, and what I'm going through during a busy weekend. Instead, I take the time to look at what is around me. Many times I've discovered I can help people by just seeing what they see. Walking around and looking for those needs, is key to finding the needs I can meet.
- Avoid Groups. By this I mean, that I avoid standing around in groups of cliques. If you go to church you know what I mean. I don't hang out with the other pastors in the lobby, loiter in front of the nursery, or restrict myself to the guest connections counter. I'm not rude, but I just never stay in one place very long.
- Smile. Oh, did I already mention this one?
If you're working at a church, and you're not deliberately working to make yourself available to those that need you…then you're missing one of your greatest callings!
Pursue Parenting Excellence
"Having success for a year or two, that's called being hot. Being in demand. Excellence is being able to perform at a high level for a long period of time."
— Jay Z, music artist and entrepreneur
I know a number of people who have experienced overnight success with a product or startup, but as parents the idea of "overnight success" should be dismissed immediately. If you believe for even a moment that one fantastic conversation with your child will set the course for the rest of their lives, then you are delusional. Excellence is something that comes over a long period of time.
The good news is that because it's a long time coming, there is time to bring correction to my own parenting mistakes. My excellence isn't measured in hours and days or even weeks. It is instead measured over years and decades. I think I can tackle this decade thing, it's the hourly thing I'm struggling with.
Love over time, time over time, words over time, hugs over time, attention over time, dinners over time, car rides over time, ice cream after school…over time. Its the distance we travel that creates the greatest impression on our children.
So make it a point to pursue excellence, not quick fixes. Excellence is who you are…over time.
Setting and Keeping Goals
I'm a big list maker. I prefer the Santa method, I make a list and check it twice. My moleskin is full of to-do's, notes, and things I need to remember to stay on top of all that I'm required to do. But sometimes the list needs to get bigger, and be in front of you more. There are some lists that fit the category of "Official Goals." But goals doesn't suffice entirely, because goals can be broken down further into three different categories.
- Everyday Goals -> You could call these core values, mission statements, or whatever; but I prefer "everyday goals" as they are the filter that allow us to say no to other good ideas. On our ministry team I have 3 everyday goals, and they are on my dry erase goal board…right at the top in red ink!
- Short Term Goals -> These are things that get specific, and I should be working on immediately (like yesterday if possible!) These goals are quick-fix things that we can accomplish quickly and with limited discussion. The accountability on these is fierce and lightning fast, because it has to be done and it has to be done shortly.
- Long Term Goals -> These are the goals that make everyone uncomfortable. These are sometimes audacious and dreamer-oriented; but at the same time I have to see them as immensely doable at some point in the future. I stay away from impossible things here, but still want to stretch myself with the long term initiatives of the team I lead.
But after I've nailed these down and illustrated them out for everyone, I can easily end up with 20 short term goals and 20 long term goals; so what to do now? Break them down into different areas of responsibilities; and start delegating them out. And for heaven's sake put them up where you can see them! Here is an example of the goals worksheet my team and I have created together (click image to view them in a large format.)
In some upcoming posts I'm going to talk about the process of coming up with the goals themselves. Because they are truly owned by everyone on our NextGen team, and that may be the most important part of all of this!

Greenwich, Conn.-based CitationShares has announced partnerships with TerraPass, a retailer of carbon offsets, and Corporate Angel Network, a charity that arranges free flights to treatment for cancer patients. CitationShares customers can now donate flight hours to the charity and can balance their "carbon footprint" by purchasing carbon offsets from TerraPass for hours they fly.
Meanwhile, CitationShares has laid off 41 office staff and furloughed 52 pilots because, said CEO Steve O'Neill, the company had had "too much capacity." He added, however, that "the decline in selling and flight activity has begun to level off."

Nintendo decided to forsake an official press conference at E3 yet again, and opted for another livestreamed presentation. They had a few surprise announcements and shared a bit more info on a few games we already knew about. Below are the primary highlights and overview of the presentation.
After grossly making fun of itself, Nintendo immediately dove into more information on Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and 3DS, but did not give a release date at this time. Now Miis can be incorporated into Super Smash Bros., your own personal Miis and any other Miis you create. It also looked like Bayonetta would make an appearance in Smash Bros. along with the new announcement of Palutena from Kid Icarus joining the fray.
The big announcement with Super Smash Bros. is the new amiibo figures, which are like the toys from Disney Infinity or Skylanders, that can be imported directly into SSB by placing them on the GamePad. This amiibo technology will also be used for Disney Infinity 2.0 and the new Skylanders: Trap Team.
For new game announcements, Nintendo showed off Yoshi's Wooly World, Captain Toad Treasure Tracker, a new Xenoblade Chronicles for 2015, Mario Maker, and Splatoon. Mario Maker is exactly what we assumed it would be, where players can create and share their own Super Mario levels, both original style and the newer visual style of Mario. Splatoon is a 4-on-4 MOBA featuring taking over territory by covering it with colored paint.
Nintendo also showed a wee bit more of Bayonetta 2, and sneaked in the fact that they are calling it the Complete Bayonetta package for the Wii U. Does this mean that the original Bayonetta will also be included on disc? Or is this how you import Bayonetta into Super Smash Bros.?
Nintendo will be streaming information all week long at their Treehouse, which you can find on e3.nintendo.com.

In my judgment the existing program is unconstitutional. As currently structured, it violates the Fourth Amendment's requirement of "reasonableness." On the other hand, it should be possible for the government to correct the deficiencies in the program in a manner that both preserves its legitimate value and substantially mitigates the risks to privacy that it currently poses.
People like to carry guns. People like to shoot guns. They will rely upon any justification they can find. But it is a canard. It has no basis in the constitution. It is a right that serves no one but the nuts with small guns who feel that carrying a weapon somehow makes them a man. This will never change.

I successfully use AVQueuePlayer to queue and play AVPlayerItems. However, the problems begin when I alter the players queue with calls to removeItem: method. My assumption was that I can freely modify this queue as long as I don't touch the currently played item, but it seems that each call to removeItem: freezes the playback for a moment.
Consider the following code snippet:
+ (void)setBranch:(BranchType)bType {
NSArray* items = [dynamicMusicPlayer items];
for (AVPlayerItem* item in [items copy]) {
if (item == dynamicMusicPlayer.currentItem) {
continue; // don't remove the currently played item
[dynamicMusicPlayer removeItem:item];
[self queueNextBlockFromBranchType:bType];
currentBranch = bType;
You can guess from this, that it's a dynamic music player that plays the music from different branches. So basically, when I comment the line where I remove items, it plays all ok, but obviously the branch is not changed as soon as I want it to. The freeze occurs exactly at the time the removing happens, so the currently played item is being interrupted, but the transition between the actual items is seamless. Also note that I never have more than 2 items in the queue, so in the loop I basically remove one item only.
So, my question is: is there any way to avoid this freeze? And what is causing the freeze on the first place?
Edit So for the people who encountered the same problem, the solution for me was to stop using AVFoundation and use OrigamiEngine instead.

As innovative media it's great
As Print it's lame:
Since the rise of Vik Muniz art, in the last 5 years every year someone is trying to draw with things...
One year is the Levis campaign (faces in jeans), the next year moto parts from a Harley, the next year drawing with marmelade (love it or hate it)
Too late Hermanos...
Nice. It taps into something that everyone who's ever kicked a ball against a wall will understand. The Dream ; ).
Saying that as innovative media this is great but as print it's lame, does make me think that some folk don't know what they're saying.
Sweet campaign.
Doin' it for the points
the video isveru nice, but the art direction is just the same as the one made for Philips from DM9DDB Brazil...too late my friends...try another one..
