Volume 29, No. 34 Thursday, February 20, 2014
DaytonCityCouncil: The Dayton City Council learned Tuesday night that a vote to allow liquor sales in the city will have to be postponed. A group of Dayton citizens had submitted a petition to place a referendum on the May 10thballot so voters could decide on alcoholic beverage sales within the Dayton city limits. However, according to Dayton City Attorney Randy Gunter, a recent change in the state election code increases the waiting period between certifying the petition and holding the election. That makes May 10thtoo soon to hold the election. The earliest the proposal can go up for vote in Dayton will be in the general election on November 4th.
New Candidates: With the candidate filing period for city, school and hospital district elections ending soon, there is now a full slate of candidates for Liberty City Council. On Tuesday, Louie Potetz filed to seek a new two-year council term. Liberty Council incumbents Frank Jordan and David Arnold, as well as Liberty Mayor Carl Pickett are also asking for new terms. None of those have opposition. In the Liberty ISD, there are now two candidates that have filed. Incumbent trustee Brandon Smith has made his re-election bid official. Under the new by-position voting for Liberty School Board, Smith is Pos. #5 on the ballot. Matt Harris, Pos. #1 incumbent has not filed. Patricia Watson has filed to run for Position #1. So far, without opposition The filing ends February 28th.
Buses: Liberty school trustees approved funding for four new school buses during Tuesday night's board meeting. Robert Ward, director of maintenance and operations for the district, said he was thrilled by the board's decision to replace some of the district's aging buses. The buses will be purchased with an H-GAC grant of $158,561 with a district match of $211,764.
Clarification: The Dayton Chamber of Commerce 4thannual Coffee with the Candidates will be held next Wednesday at the Dayton Community Center from 8 a.m.until 10:30 a.m. For information call the Dayton Chamber office at (936) 257 2393.

Great and Fast Service 5
Linda (Pasadena , CA), 4/4/2013
I ordered 105 glass jars for my son's Christening. I am beyond pleased with the final product, and the price I paid for them. They looked super cute when I filled them up with candy, and the personalized labels added that perfect personal touch! From the 105 I ordered only 2 were broken, which was fine and almost expected:)
Great jars for baby succulent favors! 4
Jennifer (Emeryville, CA), 7/29/2011
These were great containers that I used for my wedding favors / escort cards. We filled each one halfway with soil and then planted a baby succulent within. The cap was great, as most of my guests were out-of-town, and they were all able to travel home with them. The only reason why I'm not giving 5 stars is that a few were broken on arrival, and the lids did not always screw on very well. Otherwise, this was a very cost effective and great way to give favors to my guests!

Ducks got back to work Wednesday after setting a sizzling pace Tuesday
After an opening practice Tuesday that was predictably sloppy at times, "it was a little bit cleaner today," UO coach Mark Helfrich said following this morning's workout.
The Ducks were again in helmets and jerseys inside the Moshofsky Center, for their second of 15 spring practices. Helfrich said they're scheduled to be in "shells" — adding shoulder pads — Friday and Saturday, and that they'd probably be in full pads for the first time Monday.
In reviewing film of Monday's practice, Helfrich said of the sloppiness that "they weren't bad mistakes. Things that are very correctable."
One bit of encouraging news: Helfrich said the Ducks ran more plays Tuesday than they did in their first spring practice of 2012. So that hoarse voice Marcus Mariota was sporting, from urging the offense to push the tempo, apparently paid off.
"We're kind of spoiled in how our guys work," Helfrich said. "But that's good that that's our expectation."
As a matter of procedure: Helfrich said today everybody is academically eligible and practicing, after winter term grades came in. To my understanding, that wasn't a complete certainty earlier this week, so that's good news.
Finally, walk-on linebacker Dawson Housley, a graduated of Eugene's Sheldon High who practiced with the Ducks last season, left the team Tuesday. The other walk-ons who didn't return to the team this spring were receiver Patrick Acosta, safety J.R. Maffie and tight end Jimmy Musgrave.
Also departed, due to medical issues, are linebackers Keloni Kamalani (shoulder) and Carlyle Garrick (knee). Garrick attended practice Tuesday, in street clothes.

Restore America Declaration Shakes Up Governors Across America
Posted By admin On April 6, 2010 @ 11:38 am In Old Infowars Posts Style,U.S. News | Comments Disabled
Conspiring Times
April 6, 2010
Triggering heightened security at government offices and investigations by law enforcement, the Restore America Declaration is aimed at taking back God-given unalienable rights declared in the American Declaration of Independence and other founding documents.
CNN and other mainstream media outlets have been actively demonizing the group as "extremists" as well as the American people with commentary from Southern Poverty Law Center's Mark Potok who is known for lumping radical neo-Nazi and hate groups in with legitimate activist groups who do not espouse hate to further leftist political agendas.
Much like the Coffee Party movement's efforts, cognitive infiltration efforts seem to be escalating in the mainstream media with regard to this notice to further demonize political dissent and traditional American values as "extremism" and as criminal.
According to the The Guardians of the free Republic Website.

Connection Filtering - Error 403 Forbidden
Jan 29, 2013 1:52 AM
Hi Everyone,
This weekend we implemented Connection Filtering on JDE webserver to allow only the JDE user PCs to connect to the JDE website.
However, every day we have 2 or 3 users that cannot connect to the site - the logon page for JDE is not displayed and then the "ERROR 403 Forbidden - The website declined to show this page" message is displayed.
I then simply move the rule for that PC up or down in the rules list, apply the settings and it works again!!
We're using:
Oracle WebLogic Server 11g
Version 10.3.4.0
Windows 7 and Windows XP workstations with Internet Explorer.
We use the standard connection filter:
I enabled the logs, but have no idea where to find them :|
Rules Sample:
desktop001 * 84 allow
desktop002 * 84 allow
laptop001 * 84 allow
server001 * 84 allow
* * 84 deny
0.0.0.0/0 * * allow
We use DHCP for the desktops and laptops, hence the use of Netbios names instead of IP Addresses.
As mentioned, if user on laptop001 calls and says he can't acccess, I move it to the op of the list, SAVE and APPLY CONFIG and it works for the rest of the day. Tomorrow morning it happens again.
Any light you can shed on this will be appreciated.

Wow. The past two days have been so very full. I've found I haven't even had time to sit down until the evening! The concert last night was so much fun. So very very very much fun. Four of us went down and had dinner in the big city, then went to the concert where the music was just unbelievable. I have such respect for singer/songwriters. So much magic happens! Then we went back to the restaurant for dessert and a glass of wine. I think we arrived home close to 1 a.m. and my wired body couldn't settle down until about 2:30 a.m....which meant for a rather tired day today! But it was totally worth it!
So, I know it's not Monday, but I figure it's better late than never, right?! Here's some killer links...
- this has to be the most hilarious video ever. i really love the actual song!
- Lala is the cutest! (Even though it seems rather awkward for a penguin to be out of its natural habitat...)
- i am in love with this
- Happy birthday Melissa!!
- something good can only come of this
- everything is perfect
- pretty clever
- i want to know how much each one costs
- so inspiring
- the little one "opened a bookstore" today on the back porch. she was so excited for people to come buy books and didn't understand why nobody was showing up. it was the sweetest thing in the world seeing her with a bunch of books she so carefully selected, put a bookmark in each, and sat out there with her cash register. i wanted people to come and buy books (but i knew she wouldn't actually want her books to go home with people...) because she was so hopeful about the whole idea. it was the cutest thing ever!
- a blog reader sent me this and it is so very very sweet!
- i got this in the mail today and i love love love love love love love it!
- the little one and i were rocking out to this today on the ukulele (check out the "tree player"!!)
- so yea...the ukulele i will save for another post. she got one and she loves it (so do i!). more on that later though...
- i had acupuncture today and it felt amazing.
Okay, now I'm off to work! Happy Tuesday everyone!! Leave me some link love...

Don't think anyone said that. Or what I was saying, anyways. You can't deny that the elements associated with high functioning autism would help you be able to have a more single-mindedness when it comes to games, thus give you the natural ability to become good at games. That is, if games happens to be your focus. It's a dice-roll - being HFA may give you the natural "mindset" to be good at games, but there's a massive chance that you wont be interested in games. And, if you don't, you're not going to be good at it (same with everyone).
So no, just because you have autism does not mean you're going to be good at games. But, if you are a HFA and have an interest in games, it might.

Prospect Watch: Boucher Running Away With OHL Goal Title
Pat Pickens
The Devils could use a goal scorer like Reid Boucher, especially the way he's playing right now.
The Sarnia Sting forward — and Devils draft prospect — scored six goals last week, four of which came in Sarnia's 13-3 victory over the Erie Otters last Thursday.
Boucher is up to 57 goals — 15 better than Plymouth's Vincent Trocheck. The 19-year old's 85 points is good for fifth in the OHL. He's 13 points behind Nick Cousins.
With six games left, Boucher would have to score an unbelievable number of goals to break the single-season OHL goal record. But he's three goals from 60 — a mark not touched since Oshawa's Brett MacLean potted 61 in 2007-08.
Traveling out to the Western Hockey League, New Jersey's second-round draft pick from a year ago is showing his offensive side as well.
The Kelowna Rockets' Damon Severson ranks sixth among defensemen with 46 points in 62 games played. Severson leads all Kelowna 'D' in points.
Back in the states, a Devils prospect is helping the nation's No. 3 college hockey team.
Blake Coleman — also a 2011-Devils draft pick — leads Miami University (Ohio) in shots on goal with 110. Coleman's 14 points ranks him seventh on Miami's team. The Redhawks are 21-8-5.
On the farm
Though he was called up by the big club, Jacob Josefson's two shorthanded goals ranks him ninth in the AHL. … Recently called up goalie Keith Kinkaid has posted a 17-11-5-2 record in Albany. The goalie posted a 2.65 goals-against average in 33 games. … Joe Whitney scored two goals in New Jersey's 6-4 win over the Hershey Bears Sunday. Whitney is second on Albany's team with 31 points and leads the club with a plus-15 rating and 133 shots on goal.

Finding the Real OpportunitiesBusiness ideas are all around you.
They are lurking in your garage, in your basement, in your kitchen, and in your children's room. You'll find them in magazine ads, at your neighbor's house, and at work. They are right there in the vegetables you brought in from the yard . . . in the stack of papers next to your laser printer . . . in the back of your truck . . . and at the back of your mind.
You don't need to be a genius or an MBA to spot those ideas and turn them into profits, either. Identifying business opportunities is often as easy as identifying problems many people share and finding a way to solve them. When Matthew Osborne, an entrepreneur from Columbus, Ohio, wanted a way to make money, he found one right at his feet: dog dirt. Unlike most people who just gripe about stepping in it or having to clean it up, he started a business removing dog waste from homeowners' yards. The business was an immediate success, and after several years, he sold the business for a quarter of a million dollars. Even then, however, he continued to make money from his idea by writing a booklet about how to start a pet waste removal business and selling the booklet on the Internet.
Other business owners have turned their hobbies, interests, and skills into satisfying and often lucrative businesses, simply by seeing a need in the world around them and finding a way to fill it. You can, too.
Do What You Love to Do
Whether you plan to profit by twisting balloons into smile-generating shapes or orchestrating the growth of multimillion-dollar, multinational companies, your success relies on what you bring to the business. If you love
what you do, your passion for the business will drive you to be knowledgeable, creative, and persistent. On the other hand, if your feeling for what you do is lukewarm, your success will be, too.
Turn Old Standbys into New Products
You may not have the money, management ability, contacts, or desire to launch a major new product like inline skates or the energy or desire to build a multimillion-dollar sales organization. But you don't have to launch anything that large to start a business or introduce a new product.
Years ago when my kids were little, I made money selling beanbags. The twist? I designed them in the shape of frogs and I filled them with birdseed instead of beans to make them pliable and less lumpy to the touch. To attract attention at craft shows, I displayed them in various human poses (sitting up, laying on their side resting their head on their hand, or hugging each other, for instance). I could produce them quickly and kept my costs low by making the frogs from inexpensive fabric remnants. That allowed me to price the frogs low enough to make them great impulse buys.
You can spin almost any skill or industry knowledge into marketable new products or services.
A neighbor turned his skill at fixing cars into a repair and tune-up service. His angle? He was mobile. Customers didn't have to drop their car off at the shop. Instead, the "shop" (a van outfitted with tools and auto parts) came to them. Another acquaintance built a business by purchasing large quantities of chemicals and repackaging them in smaller quantities.
And several paper suppliers have created businesses by preprinting colorful brochure or flier designs on paper stock. The preprinted papers are then sold to businesses and individuals who use their laser printers to print out their own sales literature and fliers on an as-needed basis.
Look for Avalanches Marketing avalanches, that is.
"Drag your products into the path of an avalanche and you'll be swept along with it," says Alan Kaufman. Kaufman was the executive vice president of sales for Cheyenne Software when it was a small, vertical market software company that had big ambitions.
Cheyenne's owners had been keeping a close eye on trends in the computer industry in the late 1980s. They felt that Novell local area networks (LANs) were about to snowball and started developing enhancement products for Novell LANs. Within six years, the avalanche (combined with good products and heads-up management) turned their little company into a $127 million operation before it was sold to Computer Associates. Cheyenne was the 13th largest software company in the United States and employed nearly 700 people at the time of the sale.
Look for Mundane Moneymakers
Spin off a More Lucrative Business
initial attempts to start a business don't bring in the profits they had hoped for. Nevertheless, they often benefit by discovering new profit-making opportunities because of contacts or knowledge they pick up running their first business.
Las Vegas resident Beth Waite used to make $7 an hour as a self-employed dressmaker. Her customers often asked her for advice on choosing clothes, and she discovered that information available in books often was confusing and not really helpful. Because of her research, though, she heard of Beauty Control, an image consulting firm. After taking the company's training course, she started an image consulting business, charging clients $50 an hour for her advice. She supplements the consulting income with profits from the sale of Beauty Control products.

Pull Right!
As in most states, the law in New Hampshire requires drivers to pull right and stop for emergency vehicles. NH RSA 265:8 states:
"VI. A driver of a vehicle being driven on the ways of this state upon the approach from any direction of an emergency vehicle with the siren or flashing light in operation shall turn immediately as far as possible toward the right-hand side of the way and shall bring his vehicle to a standstill until such emergency vehicle has passed.
Upon the immediate approach of an emergency vehicle making use of an audible or visual signal, every pedestrian shall yield the right-of-way to the authorized emergency vehicle..."
NH RSA 265:33 states:
"Upon the immediate approach of an authorized emergency vehicle making use of audible or visual signals or of a police vehicle properly and lawfully making use of an audible or visual signal, the driver of every other vehicle shall yield the right of way and shall immediately drive to a position parallel to, and as close as possible to, the right-hand edge or curb of the roadway clear of any intersection and shall stop and remain in such position until the authorized emergency vehicle has passed, except when otherwise directed by a police officer."
Violation of these statutes could lead to a fine of $74.40.
While all Service personnel are trained and experienced in emergency driving we depend upon other drivers to act sensibly and follow the rules of the road to allow us to safely transport patients. Increasing your speed to stay ahead of an ambulance, tailgating us or failing to pull over can all risk our and your safety. Please, pull right!

Unfortunately, I didn't always feel Monster Pump NOS working. I don't know if I'm used to the stimulants in it, or if NO supplements just aren't for me, but I felt only a moderate boost to my pump and endurance on a good day at the gym. That being said, my recovery did seem to significantly improve, so I ended up taking it more as a recovery supplement than anything else.

Where is the Window?
You sit or lay in a building welcoming you to some reminder of light. I remember there is such a thing as outside when I'm inside by a window. But where is inside exactly… and what is outside? I ask you: Can one window be the same window another looks out of or into? Is a window more than just an apparatus to see what is in versus out and vice versa?
Window #1
In my first [window] case, the case of the newly opened and renovated Copycat building warehouse apartment/gallery space, Springsteen Gallery, the windows are set to a frosted glass tint where someone described to me: …when you look at a piece of work on the wall… you do not become distracted or look out the window at what's there instead of in here.
But where is the gallery? If we are looking at artwork, why not talk about the artwork, where it is located, and how location affects its communication.
As I left a recent exhibition at Springsteen and opened up into the hallway outside it, I noticed a group of friends being loud, sitting on the windowsills. I gasped at my eyes adjusting to natural light, and I immediately focused on the murmur of friends, audible discussion, and—through the open windows—the sounds and sights of the street. I realized I was more interested in the windows than the artwork inside. A friend told me genuinely: …but look at it, Springsteen, it's so beautiful—it's pure.
Is Springsteen actually a white beautiful pure box?
Whiteness as pure beauty is no new thing in terms of the gallery or the Western world, but when almost everyone I know in Baltimore mentions this first about Springsteen, I am more than suspicious about its curatorial decisions/decorations. If the work in the exhibit Metaspace for example, was handled as magnificently as the fluorescent lights and windows, wouldn't we be maybe talking more about the artwork, or the fact that people live in this sterile environment with two giant dogs? I heard no dogs barking at the opening as I do when I usually pass by Springsteen during the week. Maybe during the opening of the exhibition the dogs were quarantined.
Window #2
At sophiajacob gallery, the only window I know of is frontal, to the street, and there's usually a distinctively set flower display sitting on the windowsill. I wonder: What does this fragrant and contained flower arrangement on one side of a glass window tell a person driving or walking by? Is it reassuring to see, with each new exhibition, a flower bouquet watching the street and passersby—or watching the art?
As I visited a recent sophiajacob show, jacob, sophia, sarah (their most cryptic show), I was saddened there was no flower display. The flowers give me a constant sort of solace.
When a show is in the progress of being installed or the gallery is closed, there is often a painter's tarp covering the window. Before or after business hours at sophiajacob (any day of the week besides gallery opening night, Saturday 1-4pm, and personal appointment), the lights are turned off. This means that during the run of an art exhibition, for most of the hours that there is art installed, the lights are off. (Once while perusing the gallery's garbage, I accidentally saw their light traffic via BGE bill.) This fluorescent-lit gallery becomes a very dark space during the hours it is closed—which is most of the week! How does this gallery exist within or in response to the street activity surrounding it?
Window #1 and Window #2
The visibility and street traffic around sophiajacob and Springsteen are much different. Springsteen gallery lives inside The Copycat building, an old manufacturing warehouse repurposed for artists. The gallery is situated on the third floor of the building. It is incredibly easy to get to the gallery if you are one of maybe a hundred people who live inside the Copycat. But do the people who work at the Social Services building across the way ever gaze into this building's rounded and giant windows?
Sophiajacob is located in a much smaller building. However I'm positive there are hundreds of people who walk by or drive by outside. At Springsteen, you may be frustrated by attempting to peer into the gallery through the aforementioned window frosting, but maybe if you find a way to get into the giant Copycat building warehouse, you can knock on the gallery door. Though, how do you know the gallery is in there if you're not an artist? Could windows possibly propose, through their openness and accessibility to the street, an outlet, a road to inclusivity?
Window #3
Will two people looking out one window, or in, ever see the same? Does the history of the window in any given structure matter?
In the third place, called The Bank, at 2013 Frederick Avenue, there is not much whiteness inside and the whole building is arguably the art. There are a variety of strange and riotous events each month. This space is certainly not an art gallery, but it features plenty of events that include art-as-life, art-as-music, and art-as-noise. The Bank has a few favorite windows of mine. On the exterior of the building facing Frederick Avenue, there are glasses embedded in grout much like stained glass. The glass-bottle-stained-glass allows light in at all times of the day (street light, car headlights, natural light).
Darkness set interiorly is pleasurably key to the success of The Bank's events usually staged late at night. The escape of darkness has its allure. The outside backyard at The Bank is usually lit solely by light somewhere near the fire escape stairs that provide an entrance to outside. Going down the fire escape stairs to the backyard leads me to a second window. This window is accessible on the main first floor next to the kitchen and looks out onto the backyard. This window is in a small room that used to be a bank safe when The Bank was an actual bank.
I have met local neighbors every time I've visited the Bank. I have never met people walking by at either Springsteen or sophiajacob. (Perhaps darkness and noise music are less intimidating somehow than a gallery show of visual art?) Neighbors certainly add a surprising aspect to the events at The Bank, making the events more diverse. This diversity could be due to the later times that attract people in the area up late walking around perhaps drawn in by curious sounds.
Window #4
A very similar space to The Bank is Tribal Haus in the Northeast Baltimore neighborhood of Waverly. A large portion of its shows and events also stem from noise music culture. Tribal Haus is a two-story house with only a few windows accessible by the upstairs residents' bedrooms.
At a recent Tribal Haus show, A Midsummer's Night Dream, the artist Justin Smith's slideshow of photographs was projected at night accompanied by a soundtrack sampling music from varied genres. A large group of friends, acquaintances, and maybe enemies watched color photographs become more and more beautiful because of the flies that would swarm in and out of the projection. Each photograph paused to roars of commentary that would come in at times when images of remarkable scenarios would pop onto the screen. This projection full of flies with doo wop and drinks and darkness became its own window, a public window outdoors to peer into with strangers and friends.
Should I argue that the only difference in these various spaces is in what is concealed, hidden, and what is revealed? The arrangements made in a space like Springsteen are not immediately visible. If you want or stumble onto a tour of The Bank at a show, you may easily wind up in a dusty corner or peer into the zine shelf. I am aware each of these spaces I am describing have different intentions, but their intentions are more alike than dissimilar. On one hand, there is the perhaps more welcoming wandering space being obviously more lived-in and then, on the other hand, there is the fluorescent somewhat closed-off and tidied-up appeal of the gallery.
If these spaces took cues towards merging, reflecting, talking, acting as windows, maybe Baltimore art (noise, music, paintings, sculpture) could be addressed towards more of an integration than inside-crowd separation.
There is beauty in each window that one looks out of; what is dirty or messy or under the covers can and should be revealed. To reveal more, which is to integrate and include more person-to-person interaction… I think all four spaces are up for more activation. The function of the window is to view and gain accessibility to what is not inside, yet also exclude what is 'outside'.
Please activate your street life and put neighbors in dialogue. Also offer tours and shows that propose new types of windows to be explored. A window may be closed, but it is ultimately always an opportunity for transparency.

Flying while cycling
Previous Forum topic

OK - who fancies trying to beat the new world record for human powered helicopter flights? Yesterday the Gamera team at the University of Maryland flew their craft for 65 seconds. And in another flight the pilot pedalled hard enough to hover 8 ft off the ground.
If we are quick and glue together a few carbon tubes and add a decent power train, we could match both achievements at the same time and claim the AHS Sikorsky Prize.
C'mon - who's gonna join me?
Have you seen the thing?

Oh yes, the YouTube videos of yesterday's flights in Gamera II are astounding. Sure, the pilot has to use handcranks as well as pedals but with a decent chainset I reckon we could eliminate that excess weight
In fact I asked if they needed more pilots and they said they always want cyclists who are "power dense" but they they didn't answer when I asked for specific figures.

The Sikorsky Prize has been on offer for a few decades but they recently raised its value which has prompted much more activity. The Maryland team is now on its second version of the Gamera - and got so close to the 60 second flight peaking at 3 metres. Then they crashed. And crashed again. At least it gives Toronto's AeroVelo a chance to steal the prize.

Freshmen receive mentors
By Jessi Robinson
This year's freshman class recently received their high school mentors. Each student received a survey on Monday that they were required to complete and turn in to their mentor.
Every mentor, chosen from the school faculty, must chose a student whom they are willing to support for the rest of the students' high school career. This includes remembering their birthday, and sending cards and words of encouragement their way when needed.
When things happen in Cedar Key, they inevitably happen at the same time. Despite occurring the same Tuesday evening as the City Commission Comprehensive Plan Review, the Candidate Forum co-sponsored by the Lion's Club and Cedar Key News, was well attended by both candidates and citizens.
Saturday's Coastal Cleanup of the area around Cedar Key and the Lower Suwannee Refuge was a big success. Toxic and entangling debris that kills seabirds, fouls fishing grounds and pollutes shellfish beds was hauled from various tender spots around the Levy County coastline.
Co-organizer Sue Colson was cautiously thrilled, saying that this year's numbers were almost equal to last year's, after a very slow start in the morning.
"I was so down early Saturday," she said. "I didn't think anybody was going to show up, it was so slow. But they did, and look how much we got done!"
Cedar Key City Commission had to tread some old ground on the way to clearing the rest of the Conservation and Coastal Element and Future Land Use Element for transmittal to DCA.
The commission had examined those two contentions elements line-by-line, starting at a meeting two weeks ago, in the presence of a very few fiercely interested citizens.
David Binkley, the Cedar Key Church of Christ's pastor, and his wife Galina are moving away after living and serving in Cedar Key for seven years. Members of the church organized a farewell reception for the Binkleys where locals gathered to say goodbye to the couple who has done so much for the Cedar Key community. While working with the Church of Christ, the Binkleys initiated several new outreach programs, one of which was a daily morning bible study.
Sometimes we do things, even unintentionally that we regret. It just proves how infallible we all really are. This weekend I did something I regret, and it was not intentional.
A friend and I went fishing off Cedar Key last weekend and we had a great time. Afterwards when we got back to shore, we decided to take in one of the fine restaurants there. It was late and by the time we cleaned up the boat and got home, it would have been way past dinner time. Eating out at one of Cedar Key's great restaurants made sense.
Still not many reports from offshore as strong east winds have made offshore fishing uncomfortable. My best guess is that as the days get shorter the fish come in closer, especially down by Crystal River and Homosassa. The King mackerel fishing has been so poor all year that I do not expect any kind of a run this fall. I would love to be wrong however.
It was almost evening, the air was cool. A light rain had settled in after lunch. It had rained for about three hours, puddles had formed here and there. The soil was dampened enough to knock down the dust, allowing the green to come up from the soil.
The breeze dropped down and swung around from the northeast. A chop with small waves was on the water, to the south and west; the tide was on the wane. Odors from the exposed flats wafted in from behind. That familiar, pungent, almost sweet smell of the marshes at low tide.

Christian National Church supports individual minister homestudy.
Just like any profession, hobby or sport, being a minister requires lifelong study and improvement. The Christian National Church grants Christian minister ordination and is also committed to assisting and supporting homestudy initiatives. Homestudy includes anything that a minister does on his own time in order to improve his understanding of the Gospel, advance his own Christian faith, or improve his performance in ministerial duties. The Christian National Church offers resources to improve one's understanding of the Holy Bible, as well as reading materials which strengthen a minister's skills in performing weddings, funerals, baptisms and building congregation. As a minister, if you require assistance in any aspect of homestudy, please contact us with your specific needs and we will do our best to point you in the right direction.
Studying the Holy Bible
Every minister should begin by reading the Bible from start to finish - Old Testament and the New Testament. It is critical that a minister develop his own sense of the progression of the these holy teachings and also gain a level of understanding from which he can engage others in contructive conversation. Beginning with Genesis, all through the teachings of Jesus' disciples in the New Testament, the Bible is the core teaching of Christianity. It provides lessons from the past, mandates from God, and the framework for how good Christians should live.
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it." John 1:1-51
Supplementary Reading Materials
The Christian National Church encourages all ministers to acquire supplementary reading materials to assist with their spiritual advancement during homestudy. On a rotating basis, we provide access to books that explain particular fields of faith and ministerial practice. If it is your specific desire to form a congregation and run services of your own, we currently suggest "Organizing Fellowship" by Pastor Gerard Ferguson. This is a piece of reading material that examines the steps necessary to forming a small or large congregation. Ferguson describes realistic steps that any new minister can follow in order to draw together a group of Christians in worship. As Ferguson explains, it is often not instinct that creates fellowship, but rather several practical steps.
The Wedding Ceremony Handbook
Being officially ordained is the very first step to officiating a wedding. If you have gotten this far in the process, it is very likely that you would benefit from more detailed readings. For this purpose, we currently recommend that all new ministers acquire a copy of "The Wedding Ceremony Handbook" written by Pastor Randolph McFinn. In this resource, McFinn examines virtually every detail that you will need in order to perform a wedding ceremony. The book begins with an explanation of the licensing proceedings and continues with specific advice to ensure a happy and successful wedding for the bride and groom.
If there are other resources that we can offer you in order to improve the effectiveness of your homestudy, please contact us with your requests. As new requests are made by ministers, it is our goal to expand our recommended reading list to cater to the changing needs of our membership.

Take a moment to wander the streets in Columbia City, and you'll notice one thing. These people love their explorers. In a community named for Christopher Columbus, you'll find streets dedicated to Henry Hudson, Ferdinand Magellan and Amerigo Vespucci. And that same adventurous, ever-changing spirit defines this diverse neighborhood of Seattle.
Moving and Shaking
Columbia City's history has been a rollercoaster of ups and downs, marked by rapid growth in the early 1900s as Seattle experienced a boom during the Klondike Gold Rush. Columbia City, annexed by Seattle in 1907, helped fuel Seattle's boom with strong logging and railroad industries. During the Great Depression, the area's business district began suffering a long decline. In the 1970s, efforts were made to recognize the neighborhood's historic character, and Columbia City traded its industrial feel for a new, trendy vibe. The character and vitality of Columbia City has been reestablished, and it is now one of the most ethnically diverse areas of the city. Seattle's new Light Rail service runs through the neighborhood, making it a hub for travelers and natives and providing easy access to downtown.
Farmers Market
Since 1998, the Columbia City Farmers Market has been a defining institution for the neighborhood. The Farmers Market is open once a week from May through October and boasts a wide selection of locally grown produce and prepared foods. There are often cooking demos and even a vegetable vehicle race for kids.
Triple Threat
Columbia City's triple threat involves art, music and food – a guaranteed hit. Columbia City has an annual BeatWalk and ArtWalk. Art and music are on display from May to September. These two events are unique to Columbia City and add to the rich, community feel of the area. As you stroll down Rainier Avenue, you'll see that Columbia City has defined itself as a foodie's paradise. On this one street, you can travel the world's cuisines from Italian restaurants to Southern barbecue to Caribbean-style dishes. And don't forget the wine bars and bakeries.
History in the Making
Many of the housing options in Columbia City – whether apartment or homes – were built around the turn of the 20th century. This historic element adds character and nostalgia to the neighborhood.
Thinking about relocating? We'd love to talk to you about financing your move.

Puneet Issar in "Mahabharat", Ep. 90 (1988), Part Two
So he just dutifully crosses the ancient astroturf field to her house without thinking much about it, until he runs into this friend of his (sorry, didn't catch his name):
Who, while walking around Puneet several times, obviously enjoying the view, basically says (translating), "Dude, you can't go to your mother naked, that's really weird". So Puneet somehow puts together his own little loincloth from some palm leafs, and then enters his mother's very tastefully-decorated house:
Where his mother has been patiently waiting blindfolded (I think for several centuries or something). What happens next?? We'll find out tomorrow, in the Grande Finale!!

I hope you don't mind my little history class here:
Puneet (duryodhana) is in a war and is getting his butt kicked - he has lost most of his able warriors. As a result mommy dearest decides to give him an impenetrable shield.
Mommy has blindfolded herself since marriage as her hubby (D's dad) is blind and she is a "pativrata nari".
Her plan is to transfer all the power she has accumulated in her eyes thru all these years of blindfolded-ness to her son, and he gets a shield........so he can win the war - kind of like Achilles' mom dipping him in that river.
The story also ends similarly wherein the palm-leaf-covered area becomes his "Achilles heel"

Thanks, Xela! I guess with my Hindi skills the way they are, I intrepreted everything a little bit differently. :) I still kind of like the picture of him with an iron butt and private parts, though.
Shawn - hope you didn't think "Grande Finale" meant nudity or anything!! No such thing in India (yet).

text: I am glad to see our neighborhood "finally" getting attention, however Hillyer is the longest straightaway in the neighborhood. Its like a drag strip. If we have extra funding left over we really need to address this street. I know my neighbors with pets and children would feel better about it. I welcome the police presence we have (and thank you btw) to quit sitting at the stop signs waiting to ticket a "stop an roll" and bust these speedsters on Hillyer before someone gets hurt.

Douthat finds several blind spots in Steven Pinker's latest book on the decline of violence:
[W]hile the gradual consolidation of the modern state may eventually tend toward the relative pacific conditions that currently prevail in Europe, that consolidation tends to be so bloody in and of itself — thick with persecutions and genocides and "cleansings" of various sorts — that one could reasonably doubt whether the ends were worth the means. (If you look at Europe's settler states, for instance, from the United States and Latin America to South Africa and Australia, there's often a plausible correlation between how completely the native population was wiped out during the age of colonization and how stable and prosperous they are today.) When Pinker talks about the benefits of "the civilizing process," in other words, he doesn't give enough weight to the interests of the peoples who were "civilized" out of existence.

Vital Statistics at Time of Disappearance
Missing Since: March 6, 1988 from Trenton, New Jersey Classification: Non-Family Abduction Date Of Birth: August 3, 1987 Age: 7 months old Height and Weight: 2'4, 16 pounds Distinguishing Characteristics: Caucasian female. Blonde hair, blue eyes. Melissa has a pigmentation mark on her right tricep. Some agencies spell her last name "McQuinn." Clothing/Jewelry Description: A dark pink hooded sweater, white flowered quilted overalls and pink socks.
Details of Disappearance
Melissa's family lived with two roommates, Wanda Faye Reed and her common-law husband, in the 600 block of Lamberton Street in Trenton, New Jersey in 1988. Reed is mentally disabled and functions at the level of a four- to seven-year-old child. On March 6, 1988, Reed asked Melissa's mother, Rebecca McGuinn, for permission to take the baby for a walk. Rebecca consented and Reed left with the baby. When she returned, just eight minutes later, she had a neighbor with her but Melissa was gone. The child has never been seen again.
Reed told several conflicting stories to explain Melissa's disappearance. At first she claimed an unidentified African-American man knocked her down and took Melissa. She later said she had dropped or thrown the baby into the Delaware River. A third story implicated the neighbor woman who accompanied Reed home that day; Reed said she'd given her the baby in exchange for drugs.
An extensive search of the river turned up no sign of Melissa, and it would have been difficult for Reed to have walked the distance there and back within the eight-minute time frame. The neighbor whom Reed claimed had bought Melissa denied having had anything to do with the baby's disappearance and she was cooperative with the investigation, as were Melissa's parents. It's possible Reed harmed the baby because she was jealous. The night before the disappearance, there was a party at the McGuinn/Reed home and the guests paid attention to Melissa while ignoring Reed's infant son. Reed allegedly had two other children who had been placed for adoption sometime prior to 1988.
Two days after Melissa's disappearance, Reed was charged with kidnapping. She was found incompetent to stand trial and the charges were dropped in December 1989. Reed was then sent to live in a facility for mentally disabled individuals. Melissa's family moved to Arkansas after her disappearance. Her father died in 2008, but her mother and two brothers are still alive. Rebecca traveled to New Jersey in 2011, took a polygraph about her daughter's disappearance, and passed; she was ruled out as a suspect in the investigation.
Melissa's case is classified as a non-family abduction due to the unclear circumstances involved in her disappearance. Her case remains unsolved.

Mon, 5 Jan 2009|
Chief Bobby Halton discusses the major stories of the week, including the first line-of-duty-death in 2009 and a massive night club fire in Thailand.
Hello and welcome to fire missionaries we can review I'm bombing -- and editor in chief of fire engineering. And today is January 2 2009. This week's we can review is being brought -- by the fire department instructors conference this year being held April 20 to 25 in Indianapolis Indiana. FDIC is America's oldest largest and most extensive. Fire service training conference FDIC has been for 82 years the premiere event where America's firefighters -- to get the latest in training. In firefighting education and networking. Last year over 28000 of America's bravest gathered for this five day event. On line registration is available at FDIC dot com and organizers have informed us that several hands on training classes have already sold out. This morning -- are sad duty to report on the passing of the first line of duty death for 2009. 57 year old Elizabeth, New Jersey -- -- Whose function is -- acting captain on an engine company suffered extensive head and chest trauma. When the fire apparatus that he was directing backed over him at approximately 2:30 this morning. Gary Stevens a twenty year veteran of -- New Jersey fire department. Never regained consciousness after the accident and is listed as the first line of duty death for 2009. Captain Stevens was directing the apparatus which was backing under a bridge supporting New Jersey Turnpike laying down supply line for structure fire several blocks away. Tragically the apparatus backed over captain Stevens it has not been determined at this time. What occurred captain Stevens to be underneath the apparatus as it was backing at approximately five miles an hour. Fire engineering and everyone here would like to express its extreme condolences to the family and friends of captain Stevens. Would also like to express our sympathies to all the members of the community of Elizabeth, New Jersey. Especially our fellow firefighting Brothers and sisters. Of the Elizabeth, New Jersey. Fire department. And the story this week comes from Bangkok Thailand. This New Year's Eve in a crowded nightclub in Bangkok a huge fire. Very reminiscent of the station nightclub fire in Rhode Island claim the lives of 59 people and injured. Over 200. Much like the Rhode Island fire this one is also currently believed to have been caused by fireworks. Igniting noise proofing insulation on the ceiling. And again much like Rhode Island access and egress were impeded by the design of the club. Investigators. Are already saying that the club's safety system was substandard. Even by Thailand's -- code. It's estimated that over 1000 people were in the club at the time of the fire when it erupted. It was described as an affluent -- student crowd where European models and westerners often frequent it for a drink. Video footage and reports all describe a fast moving aggressive fire with -- extremely thick choking smoke. Firefighters can be seen in the video affecting rescues while simultaneously attempting to battle the fire. Firefighters may remember the following the tragic station nightclub fire in Rhode Island which claimed over 100 lives. Rhode Island an active aggressive laws requiring sprinklers in all places of assembly that serve alcohol. The should serve as a wake up call once and for all. And again that we need to have well designed sprinkler systems anywhere where pyrotechnics. And crowds come together. Next story involves extreme fire behavior. Firefighters in northeast Philadelphia early on the morning of January 2 responded to a fire in a three story 62 unit apartment building. Which quickly went to four alarms. After two and a half hour for a fight the blaze was brought under control the fire displaced over 100 residents and claimed the life. But -- seventy year old woman whose name is not yet been released. Firefighters describe blowtorch like conditions as the wind driven flames swept through the apartment complex. The fire service currently has several studies underway. Involving the issue of wind driven flame fronts the national institute of standards technologies study. Regarding when -- when fronts and structural firefighting is well under way. The wild -- fire -- community for years has been extremely aware of the -- ability to create fast moving in deadly fires structural firefighters have traditionally only associated. These wind driven flame fronts with high rises were elevated buildings expose the fire to high winds above grade. Recently however several residential structure fires and low rise apartment fires. Have been the scene where wind driven flame fronts have killed and or injured firefighters. The National Institute of Standards and Technology. Along with several other organizations are studying this phenomena. There have been live fire field tests but the fire department of New York Toledo and Chicago along with fire engineering. Where wind driven flame fronts have been studied along with the tactics and strategies to combat these extremely dangerous events. Reports -- -- currently still being compiled. However several excellent presentations. Are currently available for the American fire service including one from Jerry Tracy battalion chief with the -- -- -- will be presenting. The results of his investigation into this along with this at FDIC in April. Tragic news from Philadelphia. Four adults and three children lost their lives Friday and fired a three story brick duplex the cause was an exploding kerosene heater. Early reports state that woman living in the apartment was poured fuel into the kerosene heater while it was operating. As a heater began to overheat she attempted to take it outside when suddenly exploded killing her instantly. Investigators believe she may have been trying to use gasoline. Instead of kerosene in the heater. The other six victims of this fire were found huddled together in the basement. Where in violation of Philadelphia -- code there was only one -- Investigators also report that there were no working smoke detectors in the home. For the people present at the time were able to escape the flames. Although the -- firefighters had an excellent response of less than three minutes it took thirty minutes to bring this fire under control. Firefighters must remember. And be extremely aware of the fact that there may be potential fuel sources stored throughout residents who are using alternative portable heating devices. We must continue to drive home the need the critical need for every home and American -- working smoke detectors and CO detectors. They save lives. We always need to be aware or near misses near misses how we learn and this week we have a near miss from Canton Ohio. Nine firefighters. Are thankful to be alive today. Battalion chief shut goodly but the cannon fire department reported that six firefighters were transport hospital. After fighting a fire which spread to three homes in the city of camp. Over thirty -- firefighters. Battle this fire for over three dollars. During that fire -- floor collapsed injuring several firefighters. Then several other firefighters. Suffered electrical shocks when power wires contacted. The aluminum gutters and then the aluminum bat -- on which firefighters working. None of the engine far fires were reported at any serious injuries. However they did require transportation. To a hospital. A double near miss the camp fire department and an excellent opportunity to capture some lessons learned. From -- -- on floor collapses. Go to the underwriters laboratory website and go to the you'll university. There you'll find an excellent class that you can take online on floor collapses. This class has several segments and several excellent videos where you can learn a great deal about the deadly potential these floor collapses -- More information on this topic will also be presented the shared FDIC. When Chicago firefighter Jim Dalton. And underwriters laboratory researcher Steve carver will present more on this topic at FDIC 2009. Firefighters and citizens in Buffalo, New York remember their fallen from 25 years ago this week. Firefighters and citizens across the city of buffalo were called this week the tragic fire from 1983. When two days after Christmas five buffalo firefighters. And two civilians were killed in a tragic explosion on north division street. Among those killed that day it was at 31 year old -- the Michael -- -- -- -- Firefighter -- -- -- left behind a wife and four sons Michael mark. Chris and necklace all of his sons and attempted at one time or another to become buffalo firefighters. And one of his sons Christopher is currently on the list awaiting appointment for the buffalo fire department. Civilians might funded that the some of the firefighters who lost his life line of duty would wanna go to the same work. But we who know that work. Know that our families understand are calling to serve. And most of us are in the sons or daughters or the fathers and sons. And mothers of public servants. Call the service is one that every firefighter recognizes in their hearts at a very early age. And although our children may not become firefighters. In most assuredly will find some way to serve others. Buffalo fire chief and commissioner -- Lombardo said it best. When he was speaking about Christopher attempt to become a buffalo firefighter he said what could be a better testament. To their father. And and to go through all of that and still want to be a firefighter. A Catholic mass was set on December 27. Commemorating -- -- -- fifth anniversary of the explosion. And an honor of the seven people lost their lives. And now finally from are no good deed goes unpunished category. The -- of Bristol Connecticut this week received a -- to replace a 765. Dollar door to the apartment of one miss Melanie eakins. It seems -- firefighters responding to a welfare check at the sickens apartment. And needed to force the door. Firefighters were alerted by an ex boyfriend of Mexicans that she may be in danger. This -- was talking to a -- boyfriend when she suddenly stopped speaking during a cell phone call. Attempts to reconnect with -- -- were unsuccessful the boyfriend and dialed 911. Firefighters responding to 911 call found mistaken cell phone outside with -- purse in the seat of her car. Going concerned they attempted to knock on the door to rise in the seconds and were unsuccessful. After forcing the door firefighters found mistaken is asleep and lethargic in a chair and her apartment. Identifying her as being an altered state they transported her. To Bristol hospital where she was treated for an allergic reaction to a prescription medication that she was taking. City leaders and Bristol stated that they have received many calls for reimbursement for damage to apartments but generally that that comes from law enforcement. While they were taking actions to arrest people and they can never recall anyone sending them a bill for saving their lives. Go figure. I'm Bobby -- This has been -- injuries we can review have a happy new year and remember. Be careful out there.

IRON MAN Sneak Preview - Jet Pack Guy video
I didn't have a seat in last night's sneak peek of IRON MAN at South Lamar, but after hearing everyone talk about how incredibly awesome the film is I'm even more psyched to go see it with some scotch this weekend at the Ritz. But even though I decided to save my IRON MAN viewing experience for the full Tony Stark treatment with the whiskey sours and scotch flights, I still managed to make it out for the Jet Pack Guy's (incredibly short but still) awesome performance. In case you weren't there, or if you just need to live it again, I put together a quickie video of the fun:
Also, I know the hiss comes off as a bit loud in the video, but you should have heard it live. If you came out to see the jet pack guy and didn't put in the ear plugs we provided you, all the Dolby digital in the world couldn't have been turned up loud enough for your massacred ears to still hear the dialog during the film. The jet pack was very, very loud. And I really, really want to fly one for myself. If any of you find a good deal on jet packs on Ebay or something, I'll totally go in on it with you.
