I wanted to let you know about this exciting new book from Quirk books called: Witch Craft: Wicked Accessories, Creepy-Cute Toys, Magical Treats, and More! The book is authored by Margaret McGuire and Alicia Kachmar. It takes crafters and bloggers from all over and puts them into one place for you to see their inventive creations. There are many crafts in this book; from authors as well as Etsy shop owners, and other experts. It is such a treat to be able to not only see the adorable creations they made, but in this book, they even teach you how to make them yourself! In Quirk's fun style, they also have little Halloween illustrations throughout the book, which make it extra visually entertaining.
They have a wonderful selection of crafting ideas from adorable Halloween Mary Jane shoes to poison apple plushies. There is also a vampire bite necklace for all you Twi lovers; as well as decorations and food fun! Projects range from the uber simple (tangerine jack o'lanterns) to the more advanced (the cutest little crocheted witch you've ever seen!). There are fun bios about each crafter at the end of the book. If you want to make your Halloween extra special, this book is a great way to help you do so. Your children and guests will always remember those extra special touches you put into the holidays that show how much you care about them.
(Below are questions I asked Alicia Kachmar – co-author of "Witch Craft"):
I love your adorable Etsy shop, when did you start crocheting, and how has Etsy worked out for you?
I started crocheting about 5 years ago–it was one of the few crafting skills I hadn't yet mastered, having tried to unsuccessfully learn a few years before. Oddly enough, it took getting diagnosed with a serious chronic disease at the age of 23 to lead me to discovering crochet. Every day was a "sick day," and I started seeing all these cute little crochet creatures on Etsy, which was a brand new site at the time. So I taught myself how to crochet and launched my Etsy shop, pretty much from my bed! Etsy has worked out amazingly for me. As someone who had to completely switch "career gears" due to ongoing health issues (I was a teacher at the time), it has helped me make some kind of living, though it's only one piece of that of course, as I am also a freelance writer, blogger and a myriad of other random job titles. It's through Etsy that I have gotten a lot of other opportunities like being contacted about custom requests as well as getting asked to contribute to and then eventually co-edit this book, Witch Craft. It has been an amazing domino effect that started from those early days on Etsy.
What would you like to tell us about your experience working on "Witch Craft"?
At the risk of sounding trite, working on Witch Craft was a dream come true! Halloween has always been my favorite holiday and my birthday is November 2, so I grew up frequently having Halloween birthday parties and generally being on cloud nine all of October. I hadn't worked in publishing previously, so it has been a fun learning process. Tracking down Halloween crafts and their makers for this book involved browsing on Etsy and tapping into my network of crafty people, which you can imagine is quite fun to do. Not to say that it wasn't a lot of hard work! There were many nights where I thought my eyes would fall out from proofreading the knitting patterns or trying to polish up the bios. I got to "meet" a lot of creative people in the process, including the wonderful staff at Quirk Books in Philadelphia, took part in the book photo shoot and am now, as we speak, actively involved in promoting the book and planning events around it.

[0001] This application is a continuation-in-part of our application Ser. No. 09/558,391, filed Apr. 25, 2000, entitled, Internet Ready Electronic Power Meter With Automatic Reporting.
[0002] This invention relates to a power supply meter and in particular to an internet ready electronic power meter for residential or commercial use that records the rate of electronic power usage and communicates the usage rate to a remote site permitting new business models for revenue generation. In its preferred embodiment, the electronic power meter of this invention utilizes the public or private computer network to enable the electronic power meter to communicate recorded data to a service provider with access by clients and customers for review of the recorded data.
[0003] The modern energy environment, with competition in providing electric power to commercial and residential customers requires a competitive price and superior service. Service and pricing advantages may result in selection of one provider over another. In industrial countries, the cost of electrical power may vary according to the amount of usage, the time of day, or day of the week of usage. Off-peak hours may cost a client or customer less than usage during peak hours. Similarly, use of electrical power during a weekend may cost a large electrical power user substantially less than during the week. Additionally, the ability to track power usage in real time is advantageous to both the service provider and the customer or client and enables site automation, site security and appliance controls.
[0004] In non-industrial countries or in environments where reading an on-site meter is impractical or not cost effective, the use of a remote data collection system can add efficiencies to a power service company in reading meters and billing customers.
[0005] Although electronic power meters have been developed to accurately determine power usage, such meters have not taken advantage of digital data collection and distribution. Typically, electronic power meters are read visually or with data collection probes that are directly connected to the meter.
[0006] The inventors of the subject electronic power meter have utilized the efficient digital data collection format of electronic meters and have greatly enhanced the utility of digital reporting techniques by transmitting the collected data to a remote site over the public network using standard communication protocols. This enhanced capability enables the service provider to offer clients and customers custom usage plans with enhanced report generation capabilities, including customer access to current usage and cost profiles enabling the client or customer to adjust usage and maximize cost savings.
[0007] These and other advantages are described in the summary of the invention that follows.
[0008] The internet ready electronic power meter of this invention incorporates a communication component that enables the electronic meter to communicate in a dedicated local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN) including a public or private network, such as the internet also called the world wide international computer network. The invented electronic power meter includes the communication components necessary to communicate by telephone line, power line or wireless communication systems to periodically transfer collected data to a remote site.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the remote site is the information service provider in control of the electronic power meters, where customer and client billings relating to meter data are prepared. It is to be understood that the service provider may be the power provider or power broker, or, simply a billing service. The service provider is able to provide access to its customers and clients, through the world wide web, to review current energy costs, or, depending on the richness of the data provided, review a full profile of power usage and energy costs over a period of time.
[0010] In the preferred embodiment, the electronic meter of this invention includes a digital display for visually reading the meter and a probe socket for the terminals of a portable optical meter reader, which are typical features of a state-of-the-art electronic power meter.
[0011] In the invented internet ready electronic meter an automated meter reading module is coupled with a communications module to read, record and transmit data to a remote site. The preferred embodiment of the communications module comprises a telephone modem that connects to a switched telephone network for transmitting collected data to the service provider at a remote site. The remote site is typically the service and accounting center of the company providing or brokering the electrical power. In this manner the service and accounting center or service provider can monitor power usage according to time and date of usage, and generate user profiles and user billings for power usage and respond to any events detected in the power network.
[0012] The frequent remote collection of usage data allows for availability of up-to-date information on power usage. Using current web site development techniques, the collected data is preferably made available to usage customers and clients, who may be the actual power consumers or have other relationships with the service provider. In this manner, using restricted access techniques, a customer, after proper authentication, can access its usage database and obtain current information about its usage and charges. Depending on the richness of the data provided the information may be simply current cumulative usage and charges, or time and date usage profiles, including rate variation for off-peak hours, and other information useful in planning operations to minimize electrical power costs.
[0013] It is to be understood that the communication module may include a radio frequency transceiver for wireless communication of collected data to a wireless service provider for routing to the data collection center, here the service provider.
[0014] These and other features of the electronic power meter with automated meter reading and reporting are described in greater detail in the detailed description of the preferred embodiment that follows.
[0015]FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the electronic power meter in a typical cylindrical housing.
[0016]FIG. 2 is a schematic block diagram of the electronic power meter showing data collection and communication circuits.
[0017]FIG. 3 is a schematic block diagram of the battery charging circuit for the electronic power meter.
[0018]FIG. 4 is a schematic block diagram of the communication protocol of the electronic power meter for communicating data to a remote site.
[0019]Fig. 5 is a flow chart for data collection and communication for the electronic power meter.
[0020]FIG. 6 is a schematic illustration of a utility management system using the electronic meter of this invention.
[0021]FIG. 7 is a schematic illustration of the utility management system of FIG. 6 with added features.
[0022] Referring to FIG. 1, the electronic power meter with automatic reporting, designated generally by the reference numeral 10, is shown mounted on a power service panel 12. The electronic power meter 10 includes a cylindrical housing 14 with a coverplate 16 having a locking latch device 18 to prevent unauthorized use of demand and test functions. It is to be understood that the electronic power meter can be housed in a housing having a square, rectangular or other configuration.
[0023] The coverplate 16 has a transparent viewing face 20 fabricated of glass or plastic permitting visual inspection of an internal faceplate 22 on which are recorded the specifications of the particular meter. As noted, the electronic power meter may be designed for commercial or residential use and configured for a particular power supply 24.
[0024] The faceplate 22 has a window 26 with a liquid crystal display 28 (LCD) that displays markings 30 that represent the cumulative power usage, typically in kilowatt-hours. It is to be understood that the markings may indicate the temperature, the rate of power usage as well as other information considered important by the customer or party that visually views the meter.
[0025] The internal electronics periodically captures a reading of power usage and accumulates a record of usage over a period of time. This record can be retrieved by an optical meter reader (not shown) having optical probes that are inserted onto the optical terminal socket 32. In this manner usage records can be retrieved by a meter reader in a conventional manner.
[0026] Within the housing 16 of the electronic power meter 10 is an electronic main circuit designated generally by the reference numeral 34 and shown in FIG. 2. Referring to FIG. 2, the electronic power meter 10 has a microprocessor 36 to handle the operations and tasks of the meter. The microprocessor 36 is a low-cost, 8-bit processor having an associated crystal clock 38, a fixed memory 39 for programmed control instructions and a random memory 40 for data storage. The fixed memory, also identified as U3, includes the program memory that contains the assembly code and the internet protocols such as TCP/IP, SMTP and PPP as described hereinafter. The random memory 40, also identified as U4, contains the data of the meter readings and other information used in creating data records or specialty features of the electronic power meter 10. The microprocessor 36 coordinates periodic readings of the meter chip 42 connected to the power supply 24 to generate digital representations of the voltage 44 and current 46, as schematically illustrated. The meter chip 42, also identified as U2, is a module with its own crystal clock 48 and data lines 50 and 52 feeding data to the microprocessor 36. The meter chip 42 is a commercially available AC meter chip. The interface with the microprocessor 36 may be parallel, as represented by line 50, serial as represented by line 52, or by busses such as SPI and 12C.
[0027] Additionally, to coordinate usage with the time of day of such usage, a real time clock chip 54, also identified as U6, is provided. The real time clock chip 54 includes a clock crystal 56 and preferably circuitry or programming to determine date as well as time. This data is transferred to the microprocessor 36 when polled during periodic reading of the power meter chip 42.
[0028] The preferred embodiment of the electronic power meter 10 includes a temperature chip 78, also identified as U9, that generates a digital representation of the temperature which is transferred to the microprocessor 36 concurrently with real time clock data. In this manner, a record of temperature is generated with the record of power usage on periodic sampling. This periodic temperature reading can be accessed by the client or customer and, if desired, used by the client or customer for temperature control functions, for example, regulation of air conditioning systems.
[0029] The liquid crystal display 28, also identified as U8, has an associated display driver 60, also identified as U7, and a memory 62, also identified as U5, for displaying current readings as updated by processed data from the microprocessor 36. The non-volatile memory 62 also contains permanent data and coding that must be kept if power is lost. A pulse output 63 from the microprocessor 36 is transmitted to the ports 66 for the optical terminal socket 32 of FIG. 1.
[0030] The microprocessor 36 is operably connected to a modem 64 which is preferably, but not required to be, mounted within the housing 16. In the circuit 34 of FIG. 2, the modem 64 is contained within the housing 16 and connected via ports 66 to the microprocessor input 67 and output 68. The modem 64 is either line connected to the international computer network 70 via communication lines 72, power line 73 using developed data transmission overlay technologies or, using a transceiver 74 via airway transmissions through an antenna 76, as also shown in FIG. 1. The electronic power meter is able to connect directly to any ISP of any web site.
[0031] In a preferred embodiment, the configuration described has a temperature sensor chip (TS) 78 that digitally represents the current temperature which is sampled and recorded by the microprocessor 36 concurrently with the acquisition of the time, and preferably the time and date, when reading the current power usage data generated by the meter chip 42. For convenience, the real time clock chip 54 and temperature sensor chip 78 are mounted on the same circuit board as the meter chip 42.
[0032] Referring to FIG. 3, a subcircuit 80 is schematically illustrated as a block diagram. The five volt D.C. power supply for the main circuit 34 includes a controller and memory unit 82 to control a battery charger chip 84. The battery charger chip 84 is connected to the A.C. power supply 24 with a low energy tap for conversion to low voltage D.C. power to maintain a full charge on a six volt, nickel/metalhydride battery cell 86. The six volt battery cell 86 is connected to the five volt power bus 88 comprising the power supply for the main circuit 34 through a protection circuit 90. The protection circuit 90 maintains the service voltage to prevent damage to the low voltage components of the main circuit 34 from surges, spikes and other irregularities. The controller and memory unit 82 controls the battery charger chip 84 and charge supply switch 92 and regulates the charging of the battery cell 86. In the event of a power outage in the power supply 24, the outage is sensed and the battery cell 86 powers the electronic main circuit 34 of the electronic power meter 10. In this manner the operation of the main electronic circuit 34 is not affected and the power outage event is recorded during sampling and reporting. This remote sensing at the service center triggers a response to the power outage which may comprise a simple alert or initiation of a positive response.
[0033] As shown for emphasis in FIG. 3, the temperature sensor chip 78 and real time clock chip 54 are powered by the five volt bus 88 with the battery backup to provide data even during a power outage.
[0034] Shown in FIG. 4 is the preferred communication protocol between an electronic power meter 10, designated in FIG. 4 as the client/sender 94, and the service provider, designated in FIG. 4 as the host 96. It is to be understood that the service provider 96 is here the remote recipient of the data, and is typically the data collection center for accounting. The service provider as noted may have other roles from tracking and servicing the meters to a fully integrated operation including providing or brokering the electrical power to the ultimate residential, commercial or governmental user.
[0035] In the system shown in FIG. 4, the electronic power meter 10 is the chent/sender 94 of the data records including the kilowatt hour usage rate, the time stamp, and the temperature. The data records are sent as an e-mail 98 using standard international computer network protocols. The e-mail conforms to SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol). The second transmission protocol layer 100 adds the TCP (Transmission Control Protocol) header including formatted data identifying the e-mailer and host, here the electronic power meter 10 acting as the client/sender and the service provider as host 96.
[0036] In the subsequent layer, the IP (Internet Protocol) is added to comprise the IP datagram 102 including the IP header, the TCP header and the data. Finally, the PPP (Point to Point Protocol) format 104 packages the message in the 1498 byte frame for transmission by the telephone modem 64.
[0037] On the host side of the communication path, the host ISP (Internet Service Provider) utilizes a modem pool 106 to assure timely throughput for client/sender datagrams to its IP address 108 using the PPP format 110. Customarily, the host server has multiple ports and advantageously has a dedicated server port 112 for the periodic electronic datagrams sent by the number of active electronic power meters in place.
[0038] Since each client/sender has a telephone number identifying the modem, two-way messages can be sent via the dial-up line 106. This allows the client/sender, when properly programmed, to receive messages, such as a prompt to activate or send a cumulative log or other pre-programmed tasks. The client/sender modem should include a minimum 16K/ROM program memory, and 8K-SRAM for storage of 8 packets, each packet length being 1000 bytes. The processing time is dictated by the telephone modem speed, typically 2400 bps to 33,600 bps, which are cost efficient for the data transfer.
[0039] The basic process for collecting, storing and transmitting data by the electronic power meter 10 is shown in the flow chart of FIG. 5. In column A the internal reading and data collection routine is outlined. In column B the data transmission and storage routine is outlined. Starting at the top of column A, in the first block 116, the microprocessor 36 is reset, the I2C address on the 12C bus 118 in FIG. 1 is checked and the modem 64 initialized.
[0040] In the second block 120 the real time clock chip 54 is read and set to the programmed interrupt period for accessing data. Here a one minute interrupt is programmed with the counter set to one hour. Data polling occurs each minute and processed for transmission each hour. These time periods can be changed according to the preferences of the service provider.
[0041] In block 122 the output of the meter chip 42 is read with a representation of current energy consumption also being sent to the LCD. In block 124 the output of the temperature sensor chip 78 is read.
[0042] At decision diamond 126 the counter is checked to determine if one hour has expired. If no, the data collection routine is repeated the following minute. If yes, the collected data is prepared for messaging to the data collection center, that is the host ISP 96.
[0043] In column B, where the data transmission and storage routine is depicted, the data collected is prepared as an e-mail package in block 128.
[0044] In block 130, the modem is activated and an off-hook connect to the ISP is effected. At decision diamond 132 it is determined if the data transfer was successfully completed. If no, a read of energy pulses is continued in block 134 and the process loops back to decision diamond 132. If yes, the data is saved and the data collection routine is repeated for the next transmission. The saved data is stored in the random memory and available for access by an optical meter reader or by remote access initiated by the host.
[0045] It is to be understood that the system disclosed may be modified without departing from the spirit of the invention as disclosed in the written description of the preferred embodiment. As noted, in areas where use of telephone lines are impractical or unavailable, the data transmission may be performed by wireless communication systems. Other modifications may be made to adapt the system to the particular needs of a service provider or customer. For example, the host ISP 96 in FIG. 4 may have a host web site 136 as shown in FIG. 2. The host web site 136 has a customer or client access using a browser and access authorization code. The web site posts the saved data with restricted access limited to the particular client or customer whose information is to be viewed. Additionally, the data collected by the host can be analyzed and manipulated for graphic presentations to enhance the appeal to the customer viewer.
[0046] The internet ready electronic power meter described with reference to FIGS. 1-5 enables these new business models to extend to one or multiple service providers in the utility market. In the described embodiment, the electronic meter provides a real time record of power usage and communicates this record to a service provider periodically as programmed or responsively when polled. The internet ready meter is designed to communicate real time records of other data samplings, for example, site temperature, to the service provider. It is to be understood that additional utility measurements, such as gas and water usage can piggyback on the primary data on energy during communication sessions. An electronic water or gas meter connected to the internet ready power meter comprises a hardware client that acts like a controller appliance. An on-site electronic water meter, gas meter or other commodity meter, that measures rate of use in addition to cumulative use, can generate a rate of use signal that can be monitored, and if necessary interpreted, by the internet ready electronic power meter of this invention. The internet ready electronic power meter will generate and store a rate of use record for that utility. The rate of use record provides a profile of real time usage which can be combined with the cumulative use record for highly flexible pricing schemes for each utility. The internet ready electronic utility meter functions as the communicator hub for satellite appliances or systems that periodically communicate with the internet ready power meter of this invention. The report may be by analog or digital electronic signals which are processed and stored as digital records by the electronic utility meter for periodic transfer to the system or service provider.
[0047] The service provider may be the system provider that provides the hardware systems that include the internet ready electronic utility meter, the provider of one or more of the utilities or commodities being metered, or an intermediary such as a broker, billing service, or information marketeer.
[0048] With the client base expanded, and the customer options multiplied, the business models for generating revenue become highly flexible. The real time electronic power meter functions as a general internet ready electronic utility meter providing real time site monitoring or automation. For convenience, the real time internet ready power meter is characterized as an energy meter.
[0049] Referring to FIG. 6, the energy meter 10 is provided in an intra/inter-net communication system 148 that allows for flexibility in the design of business models for generating revenue through use of the invented meter. The internet connected energy meter 10 in the system of FIG. 6 functions as a hub for data transfer to and from clients of the energy meter 10 including the site water service 150, the site gas service 152 and site operations automation 154. Using the internet communication system 156 the internet ready power meter communicates with the primary service provider 159, here the energy service provider (ESP), an entity with primary control over operation of the energy meter network. The energy service provider 158 in turn communicates through the internet communication system to clients of the energy meter service provider 158 which may be separate or independent entities, and are, for example, utility providers 160, customer information providers 162, automatic meter reading vendors 164 and/or billing services 166. One or more of these entities are considered energy meter service provider clients.
[0050] Referring to FIG. 7, the basic system of FIG. 6 is expanded and further defined. As noted in reference to FIG. 2, the energy meter 10, being equipped with automatic meter reading boards 64 which can receive and interpret signals from other meter devices, for example, an electronic water meter 168 for the water service 150 of FIG. 6, or an electronic gas meter 170 for the gas service 152 of FIG. 6. Other input and output signals are transmitted through port 66 to operate and monitor other electronic system controllers such as a site security controller 172 or appliance controller 174. This permits control of or response to site security situations or control and operation of site appliances like air conditioners, heaters, lights and other appliance systems that are clients of the power meter 10.
[0051] In the customary system, multiple meters of the type shown in FIG. 7 communicate with a remote host 176 typically through a dial up modem pool 178 through one or more of the multiple communication pathways 72, 73 or 76 shown with reference to FIG. 1.
[0052] The remote host 176 of FIG. 7 is the system intermediary such as the system provider of the energy meter technology (EMT) which installs and maintains the hardware systems and transmits the communications back and forth between the local site energy meter hubs 180 and the host 176. The host 176 may be the same entity or a separate entity from the information exchange 182 which converts the raw data from the energy meter hubs 180 into usable information for one or more clients 184 of the exchange 182.
[0053] Preferably, the information exchange 182 and the manager of the energy meter technology 176 communicate through the internet cloud 186 for convenience and minimization of resources and expense for what are essentially data exchanges. The information exchange 182 communicates with its clients 184 by a multimedium communication pathway 187, which includes web site broadcasts and restricted access internet pathways including e-mail, restricted web site page displays, telephone, mail and any other conventional or custom medium.
[0054] For purposes of illustration, a typical pathway includes a particular utility 188, the customers of the utility 190, a billing service 192 for the utility and its customers, automatic meter reading services or vendors 194 of the energy meters for the utility, and an energy related service provider 196 which can range from the supplier of the energy related medium, such as gas, water, electricity, commodities, back to the host 176 operating the energy meter hubs.
[0055] While, in the foregoing, embodiments of the present invention have been set forth in considerable detail for the purposes of making a complete disclosure of the invention, it may be apparent to those of skill in the art that numerous changes may be made in such detail without departing from the spirit and principles of the invention.

good!!! Tell him not to let the gate hit his backside when he leaves ... AND DON'T COME BACK!!!
DTC ... and what are your credentials in law??? be sure to document it so we don't laugh too hard at your "papers", which in all likelihood are not worth putting on the bottom of the bird cage.
I'm not going to do anything differently, Sofia ... it's easy to spot an illegal, like all criminals they're always looking out for authorities ... and whether I call it in, or someone else does, they shouldn't be surprised when a cop shows up to throw their butts in the hoosegow until they get deported. But you can bet your bottom dollar that I won't hire anyone unless they have a REAL Social Security card, a REAL Driver's license, and have been run through e-verify, whether they look Hispanic or not. But I might also add they won't get hired if their ID says their name is Michael Walensky and they look anything other than European.
In America you still have the right to refuse medical treatment, and because lawyers just love to sue when doctors or EMTs force treatment on people, medical providers and their employers know to back off when someone says "no!" ...
"Black eyes" do NOT automatically show up at the time of the injury. Because "black eyes" are the result of having a bruise, which is merely broken capillaries at the point of impact, it is not unusual for them to show up many hours later. Just like if someone kicks you in the shin with their hard boot you don't see the bruise until later, you won't see black eyes until later.
Falsify his report? Now why in the blazes would a medical doctor risk his medical license, his practice and his freedom (due to his perjuring himself in his statement to the police/courts) for someone, anyone, who came into his office because he was now hurting after the adrenaline wore off from the night before???
An EMT is not required to document injuries of people they are NOT allowed to examine because the person refused treatment!!! But if you're so blind prejudiced that you can't see the head wound on the top of Zimmerman's head when he is taken to the police station IMMEDIATELY after the shooting then no amount of evidence will convince you ... you have your mind already made up and you don't want to be bothered with facts!!
They say they'll remember how cruel Alabama is to illegals a long time ... good! Now leave and go remember "NEVER return to Alabama again" somewhere else!!! WE DO NOT WANT YOU HERE!!!
I don't care if Alabama law says you're right, or if you have all "rights" behind your occupation of the road. All I am saying is if you tangle with a car/truck/semi the law is not going to save you or your bike. There is such a thing as being "dead right". So you just go on not watching out for motorized vehicles, believing yourself to be invincible because the law is on your side, then you won't be riding for very long.
What part of JEFFERSON COUNTY HAS THE HIGHEST COMBINED SALES TAX OF ANY OTHER CITY/COUNTY IN AMERICA don't you understand? That means Jefferson county collects MORE sales tax revenue than Chicago, New York City, Los Angeles, Miami, New Orleans or anywhere else and STILL can't make ends meet!! Only one other city/county ties Jefferson County in this and that is Montgomery Alabama!!! If you don't believe me, look it up!!!
Are all of you fine citizens of Jefferson county really this stupid? What part of JEFFERSON COUNTY HAS THE HIGHEST COMBINED SALES TAX OF ANY OTHER CITY/COUNTY IN AMERICA don't you understand? That means Jefferson county collects MORE sales tax revenue than Chicago, New York City, Los Angeles, Miami, New Orleans or anywhere else and STILL can't make ends meet!! Do you really think that an additional half percent tax is going to satisfy this beast of a government very long before they're back for more taxes?? Do you really think that any businesses with real jobs are going to come to Jefferson county with the high taxes and EXTREMELY HIGH business license fees??? If you do, then we all know why you have the most incompetent county/city government outside of the dummies in the Federal government.
Grow up and stay out of my way on a bike!!!
You have it backwards ... cyclists need to be aware of cars!! When I was a little kid my mom always told me to stay off the streets on my bike; advice that should still apply to bike riders today, no matter what their age. So when cyclists pay road taxes, and have to get licenses, insurance and plates just like big people who drive cars, maybe we can share the road, but until then ride your stupid trikes in the parks and on the sidewalks, not on the roads and highways!!!
You have this wrong ... we use to be a nation of laws and the US Constitution use to be the supreme law of the land. But today we have politicians who swear to defend the Constitution and then totally dismiss it as irrelevant ... and judges who swear to defend the Constitution and uphold the law, who then make their own law from the bench. Of course, all of this will lead to a major revolt of the people because law makers and judges forget that the people are NOT the governed, but they are and they work for us!! Whether the people wake up in time to make a change significant remains an unseen factor, as does the outcome of any such rebellion.
He didn't admit to following the kid after the 911 call. He says he was getting back in his truck when he was clobbered from behind by the kid.
If Jefferson county can't make ends meet with 10% sales tax, which is (tied with Montgomery) as THE HIGHEST combined state and county sales tax rate in the ENTIRE UNITED STATES, then giving them another half percent occupation tax will only put them off another year before they're right back asking for another tax to make ends meet. It certainly won't make them put an end to their stupid spending nonsense!!!! IT IS TIME THAT THE COUNTY COUNCIL LEARNED TO OPERATE WITH WHAT THEY HAVE AND NOT ONE RED CENT MORE!!!
But true to form they are already spending more money they don't have like the baseball team/stadium they don't need and other frivolous nonsense! The Birmingham mayor can't pay for city services the citizens of Birmingham need done, but he's already planning to GIVE city workers a raise ... is this clown so slow that he thinks he has the power to order the Federal Reserve to start the printing presses just for him???
Why don't the mayors of the various Jefferson county towns/cities along with all the county council members stop collecting their paychecks until they can get the county back where it needs to be, JUST TO PROVE THEY FEEL OUR PAIN??? ... and while they're at it THEY NEED TO STOP THINKING UP NEW WAYS TO SPEND MORE MONEY!!!!
How many people have access to "come to" the Attorney General and ask him to push a case?? And how many people have the Attorney General call them right after the trial to offer his apologies for the loss of a case?? This whole thing was built on connections and who you know, and it was RIGHT to have the whole thing tossed out on its ear by this judge!!! I don't have much use for lawyers or politicians and as far as I'm concerned they should all drop dead, especially when they do "favors" for the "well connected" no matter what the merits of the case are!!
Man what a dumb comment! Bush did NOT appoint this man anymore than obama appointed Republican Luther Strange! The Attorney General is elected by the people of Alabama!!!
Funny the only place ." http://wapo.st/yrNBYU" appears on the entire web is in your comment! As usual libs think that just because they say something it must automatically be true!!
And told " all old goats please move on the left"!!
Of course, these will be some of those Jesus spoke of in Matthew 7 who will try to change the Lord's mind saying "But Lord, we prophesied in your name, and ..." only to hear the Lord say "Depart from me, for I never knew you."
If these "ministers" spent as much effort trying to heal old wounds as they do constantly stirring up things up to keep wounds from healing, they might hear a much different word from the Lord on that day!
No, it isn't!!! Your statement is racist saying that only blacks live in HUD properties!
If a green being from space suddenly landed in Alabama, everyone (Black, white, Asian, Mexican, et AL) would be considered indigenous or aborigines by that being!!! There is NO insult in this term!!! The insulting culprit in this whole scenerio are the pompous, self-righteous people who WANT TO BE OFFENDED by anyone, and LOOK FOR anything they can point to to get their ugly PHARISEE mugs on the TV and their names in the paper!

The official WWE website continues its trend of acknowledging talent affiliated with TNA Wrestling as the Dudley Boyz are this week's addition to the Alumni section. The sports-entertainment organization writes of the duo, "The Dudley Boyz have wrestled in nearly every major organization and dominated each one. Whether fans embraced their antics or despised their vile malice, the Dudleys won no matter where they went."
Their addition to the website comes days after the former Bubba Ray, now known as Bully Ray, reunited with Devon at Lockdown.

So, Warm Bodies, the upcoming Summit movie based on the novel by Isaac Marion, starring Nicholas Hoult is something we just know we're going to obsess over. By that, we mean we're going to obsess about him. Jennifer Lawrence just got there a lot quicker than us, considering he's her boyfriend. Smart girl! That's how she won the Hunger Games. Because she has the brains and she's gorgeous, as is most evident from her December cover for Elle. That gorgeous white stretch jersey dress is by Balenciaga by Nicolas Ghesquière, and we fall all nostalgic already since Nico just left the company! We also felt all mushy and warm as Jennifer talked about her relationship with Hoult because it's so cute, normal and adorkable. They sound like the sort of couple that could totally vegetate with each other in sweatpants and zero makeup (for her, obvs), and we know that's love. "[My boyfriend] is honestly my best friend, and hopefully I'm his best friend too. He's my favorite person to be around and makes me laugh harder than anybody, " she says. See what we mean? It gets even better as she added, "We can eat Cheetos and watch beach volleyball and we turn into two perverted Homer Simpsons, like, 'Oh, she's got a nice a—.' I never thought we'd have such different opinions on a—s." It's official now … we're in love with them!

The gift of education13 Jan 2009, by Uncategorized in
My family has always been supportive of TEN's work, even though I'm away from them for most of the year. They've helped with donations, hosting awareness parties, and even coming to visit India to see the work first hand. Right before I left to go home for Christmas, we had arranged for a high-risk girl to be admitted into one of the shelter homes.
When I got home, my grandmother asked if I wanted anything. I know she loves giving me things, it makes her happy to pick out clothes for her grandchildren. But I asked her if she could instead sponsor this little girl for one year of education and board at the shelter home. Sure enough, in my Christmas stocking was a check for one year's sponsorship. I can't wait to come back and show this girl photos of my Granma!

Almost 45% of students who begin first grade in the most impoverished countries in the world do not complete their primary education. Opportunity seeks to decrease this by providing loans for schools.
What is the issue, problem, or challenge?
Many families in developing countries struggle to send their children to school, just as school owners have difficulty reaching children and maintaining a high standard of education. The cause, is simply a lack of resources for both parties which results in less children going to school.
How will this project solve this problem?
By addressing the underlying need for funds, supporters will enable school owners to build upon their limited resources which will expand education for children. These funds will also send more children to school by providing loans for tuition.
Potential Long Term Impact
Opportunity seeks to expand its education finance program from five to ten countries over the next 24 months. As more children are able to attend school, this will result in higher employment rates in the future and a more stable economy over time.
Funding Information
Total Funding Received to Date: $1,110
Remaining Goal to be Funded: $0

One late night in Butler during my first season of finals, I saw a flyer for Nightline that said, "We're Here to Listen." I remember thinking, "What does that mean?" I wasn't sure how one student listening to another's venting session could fix the very tangible problems that we were all dealing with.
Little did I know that I would be putting up those same flyers less than a year later.
When I decided to train for Nightline, Columbia/Barnard's anonymous peer-listening service, I didn't realize it would fundamentally change the way I communicated with others.
Nightline taught me to listen. It wasn't easy—learning how to do it was a rigorous training process, with up to five hours a week of lectures from campus professionals and practice calls and drills with experienced listeners. Instead of drawing on personal anecdotes or telling callers what I thought they should do, I learned to keep my opinions and solutions to myself. Instead, I became an emotional mirror for the caller. This is by no means intuitive.
Our gut reaction when someone comes to us for help is almost always to try and "fix the problem." It's hard to see people suffering—we want to do something to take that away. But Nightline teaches that this "problem-solving" misses a fundamental piece of the equation: empathy.
When we talk about helping others through difficulty, people often say, "But I don't know what to do to help." Nightline taught me that empathy is less about doing and more about listening. Being empathetic to another's pain is a human experience—denying that experience by finding a quick fix is often invalidating. Empathy is more than saying, "I get it"; it's about reaching inside yourself and finding those same emotions so you can feel with the person. Taking time to acknowledge that someone's hardship is devastating or stressful or upsetting recognizes the undeniable role that emotions play in our lives, while problem-solving attempts to erase the experience.
By "problem-solving," I don't mean keeping friends out of a situation that endangers their safety, or pointing people to long-term coping mechanisms (e.g., suggesting someone go for a run or go to a support group). Problem-solving is simply telling someone what to do. It's dictating what a friend fighting with their partner should do. It's telling someone crying over a failed test to just study harder for the next one. Problem-solving eliminates a space for feeling and forces action upon someone who might not be ready, willing, or able to make a decision. It also fails to accept this truth: Most of the time your friends will do what they want and need to do, regardless of your advice. Under this urge to problem-solve implicitly lies an assumption of knowing what is best, despite not having all of the lived experience that may be informing a friend's perspective. Where empathy entails standing by a friend, problem-solving means standing above a friend—even preaching to them about how they should be living their life.
Pushing this instinct aside and choosing to truly to listen is not easy. Empathy is frightening in that it requires you to be permeable and let the painful feelings seep in, to explore a place within yourself where you've stored that similar frustration, fear, or heartbreak. Sadness and desperation are hard to endure, and sometimes action does need to be taken so we can be in a better place. But before we can start moving forward, before conquering, confronting, contorting, we need to acknowledge the effects that those feelings have on our lives. Otherwise, both parties lose an opportunity to grow from that experience.

Last semester, previous Nightline Co-Director Zoe Pinter and I were asked if we thought wellness was a buzzword. It is the conflation of wellness and problem-solving that threatens to turn this idea into a buzzword.
This approach trivializes something essential by leaving no place for the real ways in which wellness helps us feel and heal. It's astounding that four years ago, wellness was only just starting to be a part of our vocabulary. I'm proud to see how far our community has come in providing assistance to others. Yet, what we stand to gain from putting the advice-giving pedestal aside and instead standing next to someone in their fight is a campus culture that is brave enough to be vulnerable and wise enough to be informed by its hardships.
After all, at the end of the day, most of us just need a little time to figure out what makes the most sense for us, and the best way to get there is to have someone by your side affirming that our feelings are real, significant, and understandable.

If this seems like overposting, I generally publish when I've been assaulted, or when my privacy is ignored, or when my cats cry out in pain by some action of government. I've been assaulted thousands of times over the past decade now, I'm sure that estimate is accurate....the other day one of my cats was bleeding, hair missing from its back, and two of them actually have scabs on their back as a result of being shot with energy weaponry. According to one report this results from my publication of Ronald Reagan quotes and biographical facts, indisputable and in fact from wikipedia. The federal government of course has all the power in the world to stop it.
Typically operating through puppets--including puppets in the judiciary--the right wing has for decades been committing crimes and trying to classify them to cover them up, a move explicitly forbidden by the Code of Federal Regulations. The right has accomplished its political objectives by presenting a fraction of the evidence to judicial officials who, having seen the pattern dozens of times before, could not help but realize that they were being presented with incomplete and inaccurate information.
With either the willfully blind approval or the willful ignorance of the judiciary the right has killed & stolen several of my pets and routinely shoots energy weaponry at me and my pets. Recent harm to animals include: two kittens from a pregnant stray i took in were killed a few months ago. The remaining two, just 3 months old, shake their head as government operatives shoot them with energy weaponry. They shot the eye out or removed the eye of a large really good natured stray at the port, hobbled another cat at the port, shooting it with energy weaponry, and for years routinely killed and left dead animals in my path.
A few years ago one of them threatened 'we'll just kill a cat every so often', in so many words. This has continued despite my calls to the police, the FBI, Congress, and my petitions in court. In the usual case, it appears that the right goes to a judicial crony for a ruling permitting them to harm animals to retaliate against me for my free speech. The federal government, the right wing in particular, interfered with my personal life and economic options for 3 decades, so their solution to my noting it is to kill animals. Makes perfect sense right? It does if you're a sociopathic criminal, criminally stupid, and hawkish. Invariably their lies are exposed and the wrongfulness of the harm is clear to everyone, though not until the animals have been maimed or killed. There is really only one solution, and that's to disempower them politically and to impeach them.
If you repeat a lie often enough, it becomes the truth, right? the Democrats' great accomplishment is producing the political equivalent of a Rodney King video, clearly demonstrating the lies of the right, the right Hilary Clinton correctly identified as a vast conspiracy. Confirm by examining Central District of California Cases, 01-4340, 03-9097, 08-5515, 10-5193, US Tax Court 12000-07L --though I think you want to view my US Tax Court Appeal to the 9th Circuit for a good account of their day to day assaults, a few month time slice indicative of a decade of assault, and more recently 9th Circuit case 11-56043.

I'm giving this one away today so I figured I'd need to take a pic of it. It's from the Lopi pattern book #25 - called "Lappi" and I used Paton's Classic Wool. The baby shower (baby girl due in February) is this afternoon and I'm thinking the sweater will fit in a couple years. Oh well. Learning to steek and cut up the front was a challenge but I'm glad I did it. Getting that done and sewing in the zipper was the most challenging part of the whole project.
Great knitting, Frank. Whenever I attempt to steek (and I won't even attempt to guess when) I hope I remember your fine work as encouragement. -- Books, knitting, cats, fountain pens...Life is Good.
Beautiful. Well done!
I'm in awe, Frank! Fantastic job with all aspects. Truly inspirational! Steeking still scares me - but I'll do it one day.
That is a charming sweater. Great colour. Isn't it wonderful you steeked and sewed in a zipper? You now have two new techniques under your belt.
Yes!! I'm glad I did it although I can't say I welcome the opportunity again. Maybe steeks for armholes but I'm not so sure about for a cardigan zipper. :-)
Great job Frank! I bet you get orders for more sweaters once this is opened!
Awesome work, Frank- your color choices alway sing!
Truly a WOWOWOWOOWOWO!!!!!
Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow! That is way over the top. I'm sure the baby's mother (and everyone else at the shower) will be blown away. Congratulations. It's an inspiration!
that is ADORABLE. lovely color combination and beautifully made. she'll enjoy it, i'm sure!!
Beautifully done!
...and you'd be surprised how cute an oversize garment looks on a baby...she'll get lot of wear from it.
It's adorable! Good work!
What a thoughtful gift. I'm absolutely certain this one will be passed along with each generation.
It's absolutely beautiful: color selection, construction, and the knitting is absolutely faultless. Great work.
Very cute and well made!
Hope we'll get to see the baby modelling it in due time!

Actually, after fiddling with it for a while, it seems that I was overdriving the video card with the nv driver and never realized it.
The nvidia driver reports that the card has a maximum clock of 215MHz or so. In configuring my display, I hadn't used a range, but rather had used the specific frequencies listed in a table that came with the monitor to get 1600x1200 at 85Hz, 106.3h & 85v. The table also specifies that this requires a clock of 229.5MHz. So that's why it wasn't working under the nvidia driver. Oops.
I fell back to specifying a range (30-121h & 48-160v) and the nvidia driver came up just fine at 1600x1200, albeit only at 75Hz. And my Xvideo drivers were now working. Unfortunately, video playback was mangled by some really nasty artifacts. Which is fine, I guess, since I wasn't wild about running at 75Hz anyway.
Oh well. I'll be replacing this 21" tube with a 19" LCD that runs 1280x1024 soon enough anyway. I'll try it all again then.

Eggless Banana Chai Latte Cookies
You know those days, where you just want to bake something? You have a pile of cookies, and other various baked goods, but you have the feeling that you need to bake?
..Or is that just me. Anyways, if you are anything like me, I constantly need to be baking something. So whenever the oven is on for anything (potatoes, casseroles...) I need to add something sweet to the mix.
This time: cookies.
See, the thing about this recipe is that it doesn't make many cookies. Like, at all. This literally only made 5 cookies: all the cookies in the picture. And they have no butter or eggs, so it seems pretty healthy.
Yeah I know, I think I would prefer a non-healthy all out butter fest in cookie form, but this is great as a snack when you just want a healthy pick me up.
Eggless Banana Chai Latte Cookies
printable recipe
-1 ripe banana, mashed
-1/2 cup oats
-1 bag chai tea
-1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
-1/4 teaspoon instant coffee powder
-2 tablespoons sugar
1. Preheat the oven to 350˚F.
2. Mix the banana and oats together. Break open the tea bag and mix it into the batter. Add the vanilla and instant coffee and mix until fully incorporated.
3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and scoop batter onto the prepared baking sheet.
4. Bake for 20-30 minutes or until golden brown.

Passengers arriving at the Port of San Francisco
SS John L. Stephens
Arrive San Francisco
May 18, 1854
SS John L. Stephens
Captain R. H. Pearson
From Panama
Passage: Daily Alta California, May 19, 1854
England and Russia in the Fields.
Terrible Shipwrecks and Loss of Life.
Congressional Matters, c&c.
The P. M. steamer John L. Stephens, R. L. Pearson, Commander, arrived at an early hour yesterday morning from Panama, bringing a large number of passengers, and the Atlantic mails to the 20th of April.
The Stephens made an unusually long passage, owing to the bad quality of coal in use.
The latest advices from New York are to the 20th, and New Orleans 22d of April, and from Liverpool to the 8th of April.
We are indebted to the politeness of Capt. Pearson for stopping his ship for our reporter, and to Mr. Goddard, Purser, for his attentions, and for the following memoranda and list of passengers:
The Pacific Mail steamship John L. Stephens, R. H. Pearson, Esq., Commander, left Panama, with the United States mails of April 20th and 22d, and 701 passengers, of whom 119 were women and 72 children, on Wednesday, May 3d, at 9 P. M., having been detained until that time in consequence of the non-arrival at Aspinwall of the steamship Falcon. With U. S. Troops from New York, April 18th.
The work upon the railroad is progressing rapidly, and its early completion through to Panama is confidently anticipated. May 9th, 11 A. M., arrived at Acapulco. Found in port steamship Panama, Capt. McLane, hence for Panama. May 1st - all well on board. She left Acapulco at 2 P. M., for Panama. Steamship Columbus, from San Francisco for Panama, left Acapulco on the 6th inst.
On the 29th April Santa Ana raised the blockade and retreated with his forces to the interior, his vessels sailing to the northward. Everything appeared to be perfectly quiet at Acapulco, though serious apprehensions were entertained that he would return with an increased force to take the place. At 5 P. M. left Acapulco; at 9 P. M. saw the lights of a steamer bound down, supposed to be the Cortes, for San Juan. 11th, 3 P. M., passed a propeller, under sail, showing Hamburg colors, apparently an iron vessel, and a fine looking craft. 18th, at 7 A. M., arrived at San Francisco. The J. L. Stephens made an unusually long passage, owing to the very inferior quality of her coal.
Terrible Shipwreck and Loss of Life
A terrible shipwreck occurred on the 15th of April, at Long Beach, nine miles below Barnegat inlet. It was at first supposed that it was the Hamburg ship Humboldt, but this was a mistake, as the Humboldt arrived safely at quarantine on the 20th. The wreck was that of the Powhattan of Baltimore, from Havre, with emigrant passengers. The following telegraphic dispatches from Philadelphia tell the terrible story. It seems by the dispatches that other vessels besides the Powhattan were wrecked:
Philadelphia, April 19th, 1854. - A dispatch received from Capsecum says that up to last night about forty dead bodies - men, women and children - had been washed ashore on the beach about a quarter mile across the channel. Those seen by our informant appear to be Germans. They are all much disfigured however.
Bodies were washed ashore all the time on the Absecon coast.
April 19th, 1854. - A letter received at the Ledger office from Long Beach, dated Monday, states that the ship Powhattan of Baltimore left Havre with emigrants about the 1st of March - she was an old vessel, of about six hundred tons.

Equine Assisted Psychotherapy: Can it Improve Self-Regulation and Social Skills in Children Diagnosed with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder?
Those who currently suffer with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) find little relief as the development and implementation of intervention strategies are limited and have lagged behind (Astley, 2011; Paley & O'Connor, 2009; Warren, Hewitt, & Thomas, 2011). This literature review examines if equine assisted psychotherapy (EAP) is a viable behavioral intervention to improve self-regulation and social skills in children diagnosed with FASD. Quantitative EAP studies involving at-risk youth, as well as the only quantitative social skills study conducted with 100 children with FASD are compared, with the majority of studies showing significant, positive results (O'Connor et al., 2006; Schultz et al., 2007; Shultz, 2005; Trotter et al., 2008). Information about the FASD population, diagnosis, prevalence data, and knowledge of professionals who work with this population is explored as it relates to interventions.

Spanish River High School's mathematics team discovered the winning formula during the High School Mathematics Competition at Palm Beach Atlantic University on Saturday.
The team's first-place win was its second in the three-year history of the contest. Last year's champion, Atlantic High School, took second place and Palm Beach Gardens High placed third. In all, 11 teams representing seven public and private schools across Palm Beach County and the Treasure Coast participated.
|The team from Palm Beach Gardens High School uses a tablet computer during the High School Mathematics Competition at Palm Beach Atlantic University on May 14.
During the competition, teams solved algebra, trigonometry, statistics and pre-calculus problems using HP tablet computers and DyKnow interactive software.
The first-place team received a trophy and members received $75 Best Buy gift cards and TI-Nspire calculators. The second-place team received $50 gift cards, and the third-place team earned $25 gift cards.
Members of all other participating teams received $10 gift cards. The schools were Jupiter Christian High School, St. Lucie West Centennial High School, Cardinal Newman High School and Seminole Ridge High School.
The first-place team was comprised of Noranit Narapanya, Whitney Sha, Eric Pelz, Nicolas Rochwerger, and Michael Barth. Spanish River High School mathematics teacher Mary Fish is the team's coach.
Three professors in PBA's School of Arts and Sciences served as judges: Dr. Marsha Guntharp, associate professor of mathematics; Dr. Stephen Selby, associate professor of mathematics; and James Swick, assistant professor of mathematics.
Also, Karen Swick helped formulate problems for the competition. She retired from PBA in 2002 after 20 years of service as a professor of mathematics.
Among the special guests in attendance were Melissa Akey, educational technology consultant with Texas Instruments, and Ashley Ralston, a 2010 graduate of PBA who is now a mathematics teacher at Palm Beach Gardens High.
Ralston, a mathematics and secondary education major, spoke to students, teachers and parents in attendance about career opportunities and practical applications of a mathematics degree.
The competition was sponsored by Texas Instruments. Other sponsors included Best Buy, Little Caesar's and Panera Bread.
