Pondok Karangnaya
Basic digs with great aspect
What we say:
Located just to the south of the main Cibuaya Beach cluster on the way to Ujung Genteng is Pondok Karangnaya. Built in 2011, this basic bamboo shack has six rooms and a restaurant around the back which can serve up meals whenever you feel like it. Spring mattresses are simply plonked onto the floors with not a bed in sight as is the case in some other basic accommodation in town. The cold water bathrooms with squat toilet and bucket for washing have a little bit of natural light, but not enough to give you that clean, fresh feel. Just 20 metres from the sea, this place has a great aspect with absolutely cracking bamboo tables and chairs out the front overlooking the beach. This is a top budget spot at a top price. Be sure to negotiate.

For their efforts, skill, and scoring prowess — along with their ability to play two sports — Bridget Power and Dan Hebert are this year's Newtown Bee's Athletes of the Year. Both athletes won championships during their careers, were captains, and played significant roles in the success of their squads during their respective senior seasons and throughout their NHS playing days.
Power capped off a soccer and basketball career that included state championships in both sports. Hebert, meanwhile, finished his football and lacrosse run, which was highlighted by South-West Conference titles in both sports.
There is no shortage of athletes who go all-out and put forth tremendous efforts, often overcoming injuries and playing through pain at Newtown High. Power and Hebert epitomize that driven, hard-working, seemingly fearless athletic style of play that has led to individual and team success.
"Bridget has been a leader on the field for us for three years. Her desire to win is among the best I have ever seen," her soccer coach, Marc Kenney, comments.
Power took one for the team by dropping back from her midfield position to play the sweeper position in the state soccer playoffs during her junior year.
"As I said throughout last year's state championship run, we moved her to the back where she really helped us win balls in the air and kept opposing front players at bay. Without question, we do not win a title without her buying into this change and performing every time she stepped on the field. I am a better coach for having the opportunity to work with her. Nobody deserves this award more," said Kenney.
On the soccer field, Power was an All SWC first team selection and won the state tourney title game Most Valuable Player Award.
On the basketball court, the guard helped the Nighthawks make a run to the championship in her junior year and also earned All SWC recognition.
Power, who was recruited to play basketball at Catholic University in Washington, D.C., recognizes that she is fortunate to have been on a pair of state title winning squads. "I know how lucky I am to be able to have accomplished that and I owe that to both teams. They were both amazing in their own way," she said.
Power says competition is what drives her in sports. "I'm a really competitive person," she said, adding that team camaraderie is one of her favorite aspects of being on a team. "Everyone's really close and it's like a family," she said.
Hebert, a receiver/defensive back who also returned kicks and occasionally was called upon to throw passes, suffered a broken arm during the football team's title run this past fall, but supported his teammates from the sideline of every game.
"I believed in them and they really went out and they played hard, and they played for me and they won that game — and I've never been more proud of a team," Hebert said.
"Dan was the rare combination of a great leader and a great athlete. Dan was an inspiration to the coaches and players during all four years he was on the field," said Steve George, coach of the football team.
On the football field, Hebert was an All State honoree for two years and earned All SWC first team mention three times. Hebert helped the football team to the conference championship game three years in a row and to a pair of state playoffs. A captain on the gridiron, he earned the SWC Leader Award this past fall.
"Dan has a tremendous work ethic, which is much of the reason he is so accomplished," George said.
Hebert was also a lacrosse team captain this past season. The attackman/midfielder was a two-time All SWC honoree and was named All State this year. He was among the team's top point-getters, regularly assisting teammates.
Hebert, who was recruited to play football at Central Connecticut State University, says there are many things that he enjoys about playing sports. "The feeling you get from winning a game or just playing under the lights" are among them, Hebert said. "And all of my friends are on my sports teams — seeing the improvement that we made and the accomplishments that we have achieved this year. You put work in and you see what you get out of it."
Playing a sports takes a lot of commitment and practice, and that's the most challenging aspect of playing sports for Hebert. "You have to consistently be getting better," Hebert said. "All season with football and lacrosse it's constantly lifting, running, working on your speed, working on your plays, and everything like that."
"For me, it's the physical toll on your body," Power said of what she finds to be most demanding about playing sports.
Power and Hebert are excited to see where their athletic lives take them, but both will also fondly recall their Newtown High experiences.
"If I could go back and change it, I wouldn't," Power said. "Because I've just had an amazing four years."
"I have memories and relationships with every single player that I've played with and I'm going to cherish those for ever," Hebert said.

Steps should be taken to save on road salt use
Call it a tale of two municipalities — a salty one at that. And it's a perfect example of how the City of Utica could – and should – be doing a much better job of providing better stewardship of taxpayers' money.
Utica already has used nearly 40 percent of its road salt budgeted for this season. With a good chunk of winter yet to come, that could be a problem.
Meanwhile, the Town of Kirkland, has cut its use of salt nearly four-fold. By doing so, highway crews are saving taxpayers a significant amount of money, not to mention being kinder to the environment.
So how does one municipality operate so efficiently while another one struggles?
The answer appears to be a device called a Dickey-John control that allows plow operators to calibrate how much material is dropped. Kirkland uses them. Utica purchased 16 of the devices in 2002 for its fleet of 16 trucks, but they're currently in use on just three vehicles.
The problem, Utica Public Works Commissioner David Short says, is that DPW plow drivers don't like them. They prefer to control the amount of salt they drop. And yet even the commissioner acknowledges that use of the Dickey-John control would probably save money. Even the state and county have been pressuring the city to use the devices because they work for those agencies.
There's something terribly wrong with this picture. The city bought the devices for $36,700 when Michael Cerminaro was DPW commissioner. Cerminaro, now city comptroller, said they paid for themselves within a few seasons. Since, however, Short says there have been problems with them. The salt rotted some of the cables, and others need to be recalibrated. Drivers also say that in some cases, the device doesn't release an acceptable amount of salt.
Those all seem to be problems that can be easily addressed through routine maintenance, replacement of rotted cables and plow driver training.
Consider the success in neighboring community Kirkland. The town installed Dickey-John controls in 2008 and has since cut its use of salt remarkably. Jon Scott, town highway superintendent and president of the Oneida County Highway Superintendent Association, said his plows used to put down 1,800 to 2,400 pounds per mile of a salt-sand mix; now, they apply about 600 pounds per mile. He said plow operators actually take pride in putting down the least amount and getting the best results. In addition to saving money, waterway and well contamination is greatly reduced.
This isn't a tough one. It's time for Utica to borrow a page from the Kirkland highway department manual and find out how these devices might be put to best use. As Mayor Palmieri prepares his budget and looks to trim costs, this would appear a good place to start.

DURHAM, N.C. — Clemson returned to Dukes Wallace Wade Stadium on Saturday night, five years to the day since its last visit.
Nothing much changed.
Tajh Boyd threw for five touchdowns, including three to DeAndre Nuk Hopkins, and Clemson kept alive its hopes for a third ACC Championship Game appearance in four years by bulldozing Duke 56-20.
Playing at Duke for the first time since a 47-10 win against the Blue Devils in 2007, Boyd teamed with Hopkins early and often essentially to take the will out of Duke and the worry out of Dabo Swinney within the games first 15 minutes.
Hopkins caught three consecutive touchdown passes from Boyd in a 7-minute, 47-second span of the first quarter breaking two school records in the process but not topping his personal best.
So Hopkins had caught three touchdown passes in a quarter before?
Yeah, he said, in the Central Rec League.
Hopkins, a former Daniel High star from Central, made the Duke secondary appear as if it belonged in the Central Rec League, shredding the Blue Devils man-to-man coverage at will and again raising eyebrows at the notion that opposing defenses continue to challenge the Tigers receivers.
Im kind of surprised, but Im enjoying it, Hopkins said.
Hopkins set records for most touchdown catches in a season (13) and a career (21) and eclipsed the 1,000-yard mark for the season. Then he turned the game over to the Tigers other offensive weapons.
Boyd made the transition smoothly, passing to Sammy Watkins and Martavis Bryant for touchdowns, then rushing 21 yards for a touchdown of his own as the Tigers bolted to a 42-17 halftime lead and coasted from there.
Boyds five touchdown passes matched his school single-game record for the second time in two weeks. He almost broke the record in the third quarter with a 25-yard completion to tight end Sam Cooper, who was tackled at the 2-yard line.
I just cant seem to get that sixth one, man, Boyd said with a laugh. I went up to Coop and was like, Two yards? You fell on the 2-yard line?
And he was like, It was kind of far. Its all good. Youve got to just go out there and have fun. Guys are coming out and everybodys touching the ball. Its so much fun playing with these guys.
Saturday night they had a virtual party. Clemson amassed 718 yards the second-highest output in school history, behind only the 756-yard game against Wake Forest in 1981.
The 56 points were the most Clemson has scored at Wallace Wade Stadium, breaking the previous high set in 2000 during a 52-22 victory.
The Tigers prolific night was tempered by a few negatives, including a career-high three interceptions by Boyd and injuries to running back Andre Ellington and tight end Brandon Ford.
Ellington sustained an apparent hamstring injury while gaining 26 yards on the first play of the game and did not return. Ford left in the second quarter because of an abdominal injury and did not return.
But the Tigers had a good vibe flowing late into the night.
Were 8-1 and weve got 21 days left in this season, Swinney said. Again, weve got to try to have a strong finish. Im proud of them for finishing tonight. This is kind of the end of our road season, and its only the second time in 15 years weve had four road wins. Im real proud of our guys for that.
Clemson (8-1, including 5-1 in ACC play) has two league games remaining, at home against Maryland on Saturday and against N.C. State on Nov. 17. The Tigers, who are ranked No. 9 nationally and No. 13 in the BCS standings, wrap up the season at home against archrival South Carolina on Nov. 24.
Florida State, which had an open date this week, is tied with Clemson atop the Atlantic Division standings with identical 8-1 and 5-1 marks, but the Seminoles hold the tiebreaker by virtue of their 49-37 win over Clemson on Sept. 22.
Duke, which entered the game with a share of the lead in the Coastal Division, slipped to 3-3 in the ACC and 6-4 overall, but has already qualified for its first bowl game since 1994.
Boyd completed 16 of 23 passes for 344 yards. He also rushed nine times for a career-high 72 yards.
Roderick Hot Rod McDowell added 83 yards on 13 carries; Zac Brooks had 67 yards and D.J. Howard 65 yards.
Hopkins finished with just four catches, but the made the most of his chances, accumulating 128 yards and the three touchdowns. Watkins and Charone Peake also had touchdown catches.
The credit goes to that offensive line, Swinney said. They were outstanding. They came to play. They protected our quarterback and just really gave us an opportunity to be successful and have balance.

Gee, I don't understand the concern. It's just tax payer money. If we run short, we'll just raise taxes.
If we run short, we'll just raise taxes.
i know, stupid liberaltards. we need to cut taxes across the board without specifying what programs we're cutting so that the budget is a total sh!tstorm then we can try to cut funding from the real money wasting agencies like planned parenthood and npr and pbs
Is that Orrin Hatch or the Grim @#%&! Reaper? I'm going to see that baleful mug in my nightmares!
orrin, don't you have enough skeletons in your closet without stirring up more. you flip flop and change parties at will and you expect everyone to take you seriously....................................right
As much as I disagree with Senator Hatch something including an investigation has to be conducted. There are few Administrative Law Judges who think having a life time appointment translate to doing whatever they want and adjudicating not base on facts but on personal relationships with representatives who appear before them.
Some people are sort of misunderstanding. An ALJ is not like a circuit judge. They are hired by SSA like an employee.
This issue is a complicated one.
You have to understand that the ALJ hearing is the third level of appeal.
The first 2 levels are done at the DDS (Disability Determination Service), and the case reviewed by medical consultants to see if the claimants medical records meet the criteria for being disabled. After the decision is made at the initial or reconsideration level, then it is often reviewed by the DDS and the Federal Quality Assurance units. So when the case is done on the first 2 levels the workers and doctors don't have a lot of leeway in deviating from the guidelines.
However at the third level of appeal the ALJ who is has a degree in law has the greater say in the decision and ALJ's decisions are not subject to the same level of quality review as the 2 earlier levels of filing. This sort of explains the huge reversal rates on claims that have already been looked at by actual doctors twice before arriving at the ALJ level.
In theory the ALJ's and the DDS are supposed to be basing their decisions on the same guidelines but in practice it is usually radically different. Plus lacking an intense QA review like on the first 2 levels there is a LOT of variation between judges because they don't have a lot of feedback on how they rationalize what they do.
Where the claimants subjective complaints and statements about limiations of functioning are supposed to be used on all levels the ALJ's tend to place a lot more weight on the claimants subjective statements and therefore their decisions are usually more favorable.
In one way this is good. You can have 2 guys with the same documented medical problem. Lets say a herniated disc. One guy functions pretty well but the other guy, with the exact same findings other than his complaints of excrutiating pain says he can't do anything. On the first 2 levels these guys may wind up with very similar decisions on their claim. But on the ALJ level the judge may allow the guy who claims to have excrutiating pain. This guy who is more sensitve could be denied on the first 2 levels.
However since pain and a persons statements are entirely subjective one cannot always know for sure if the person is being honest. So it sort of cuts both ways.
This agency is run by the Klan. They use corrupt-unethical Doctors for exams and then hide them when they get busted on the private side. They even quash the media in having any relationship with the old hack

When Missouri bridge projects require the removal of historic bridges, the Missouri Department of Transportation or its local transportation partners must make them available for use by others. Federal law requires any state proposing demolition of a historic bridge involved in a bridge replacement project using federal funds to "first make the historic bridge available for donation to a State, locality, or responsible private entity" providing certain conditions are met. Bridges advertised here are eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places and are available for relocation. The Missouri Department of Transportation and its local transportation partners are seeking proposals for their reuse. Because they are historic, preservation covenants to help preserve them and the features which make them historic, may apply. Up to 80% of the demolition costs (what would have been spent to demolish the bridges) is potentially available to reimburse recipients for reusing them. This funding is primarily available if the recipient is removing the bridge from its current location themselves. If the applicant needs the bridge removed and set aside for later pick-up, the funding is not available since the removal of the bridge is construed as a "demolition" activity. Bridge ownership will be transferred to the recipient and the new owner must assume all legal and financial responsibility for the structure.
The following bridges are available for relocation. Proposals for their reuse or the reuse of their elements should be submitted to the contact listed on each individual bridge page by selecting a bridge below. Download the Proposal Checklist to assist in the preparation of your proposal.

Last monday, July 6th, the UK-based National Endowment for Science, Technology and the Arts (NESTA) organised RebootBritain, a public event where social entrepreneurs, activists, policy-makers and social thinkers had a chance to discuss the challenges and opportunities facing Britain today. As part of this discussion, organisers invited participants to make their own idea of what would help to reboot Britain ... in Lego blocks.
Why? The idea is that building with the hands prompts different ways of thinking ... ideas emerge ... the process gives a voice to the regular delegates at this grand event with big-name speakers ... and everyone is drawn to view each others' interesting, clever, pretty models.
The exercise produced a collection of fun images for sparking dialogue and action:
|Create digital knitting for others to unravel
|Push the balance towards community and collaboration,
not personal leadership
|Creative minimalism
|Don't be scared to take a risk and take your idea on a journey
|Looking at problems and solutions from new angles
|Building bridges across social divides
|Shout about it!
|Looking back and moving forward (how to learn from the past to make the future we need)
Additional resources, if you're interested:
* The original flickr photo set for this collection of Lego images
* A resource website for those who want to learn more about David Gauntlett's premise that "making is connecting"
* Resources and articles directly from this year's RebootBritain conference, available on the NESTA website.
David - hats off to you! What a wonderful initiative and to have engaged everyone through the LEGO Serious Play process must have been very powerful.

"Torture, punishment and chicken bones!"
These statements pulled from the wacky trailer for INTERROGATION ROOM (2011, Mike Hunt Inc.) pretty much sum up what to expect from "the most shocking adult movie of the year" as touted by the DVD sleeve. A few fetish specialists like Goddess Soma Snake Oil and Ogre Kabneched are brought on board to do some wacky things to some gals in a dark dungeon setting then director Jim Powers mixes some XXX action into the festivities. What remains is an unsettling mix of pain and pleasure as gals like Cherry Torn, Jamey James and Jennifer White must each endure a different torturous interrogation plus sucking and fucking, too. Although surely not for everyone, the 2 hour 17 minute INTERROGATION ROOM at least delivers on most of its pain and pleasure promises with solid production values to back it all up.
Monday 1:06 PM
Cherry Torn and Jamey James twat suck one another in their cage while Goddess Soma Snake Oil gets in a few slaps, chokes and pokes through the bars. She exits with the duo kissing in the cage---!! 1/2
Monday 3:33 PM
Cherry is strung up with a bar in between her feet so that a guy with a gas mask can come in and gag her. He whips at her tits and in between her legs (ouch!) then attaches forceps that hang down from her pussy lips (double ouch!) and uses a shock wand on her nipples. He clips clothes pins up her arms and around each titty then pulls them off via a strand connecting each pin. (double ouch again!)
Tuesday 9:30 AM
Cherry is gagged and suspended in the air for spanking and slapping. Meanwhile, Goddess Soma ties up Jamey.
Tuesday 4:11 PM
Guard Otto Bauer feeds caged Cherry his dick and chicken bones (at times at the same time) prior to fucking her in her pussy and her ass hole. Otto uses the chicken grease for lube in this wacky scene that ends with Cherry dropping to her knees inside the cell for a facial---!!!
Wednesday 10:20 AM
Jennifer White ends up in the interrogation room where she slips out of skimpy dress and slowly takes off her panties. Her interrogator, busty Shay Lynn, hand cuffs her to the desk, inserts a mouth gadget and sticks an instrument up her ass that widens her anus hole. Shay yells "are your ready to talk yet?" then Jaded Dawn enters and whips Jennifer stooped over the desk then Jennifer's strung up by her hands.
Wednesday 6:30 PM
A couple of guards (Lee Stone and another dude) have their way with Jennifer so a cock lands in her mouth while she takes a dick in her pussy and up her ass in this brief but solid encounter. Shay barks a few orders along the way---!!!
Thursday 12:12 PM
Goddess Soma gets a hold of Jamey James, who is tied up and bent over on an I-shaped piece of equipment. Jamey takes quite a few shots from the stun wand (ouch!) then wears some sort of clear plastic head piece over her head.
Goddess Soma attaches some titty clips to her nipples then brings out a strange vibrator that appears to be a sphere spinning at the end of a black hose. She rubs the spinning sphere on Jamey's pussy lips---!!!
This encounter concludes with a stun wand shock to Jamey's pussy lips. (ooooouch!)
Thursday 3:33 PM
With her hands and feet tied, Jamey lies on the floor so that Goddess Soma can blow torch a candle that drips hot red wax on poor Jamey's back. Goddess makes Jamey lick up her own spit from the dungeon floor.
Friday 2:13 PM
Watching the interrogations from another locale, a burly cop shows up to teach one of the interrogators "the error of her ways" so Shay Lynn ends up tied to a rack so that Annie Cruz with a lower lip piercing gets to pop Shay's pussy and titties with a riding crop.
Annie dons a strap-on dildo and makes Shay suck it--- ! 1/2
Friday 8:39 PM
The burly cop holds Jennifer White while Jaded Dawn is lowered into a clear vat of water a few times for a water torture encounter. "You're next!"
Friday 11:59 PM
Jennifer is lowered into the vat and eventually confesses to something.
Saturday 7:13 AM
The chicken cop unties Jamey James and uses her spit on the ground to jack off. The duo end up in some straight sex positions including upright doggy and concludes with a cum shot that lands a bit on her outstretched tongue---!!!
Meanwhile, Shay feels that she has failed as an interrogator so Annie and Jaded Dawn comfort her in this well-lit girl/girl/girl three-way that occurs in some sort of bedroom area away from the dungeon---!!!
INTERROGATION ROOM ends with a slight twist and that's pretty much it. A few Jim Powers trailers and the hilarious INTERROGATION ROOM trailer are the only extras.
So, INTERROGATION ROOM (2011, Mike Hunt Inc.) brings the pain more than pleasure but that's to be expected when you have a few fetish experts helping out the production. Overall, the DVD is a strange experience, an uneven mix of S & M hijinks and XXX action So, if any of the encounters described above interest you then the INTERROGATION ROOM might be worth a visit. It's thin story is mostly an excuse to run these damsels in distress through painful/pleasurable encounters.
Final rating is !!! outta !!!!!

FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) - Gov. Steve Beshear and his wife reported nearly $200,000 in income on their latest joint federal income tax return.
Beshear publicly released the tax return on Friday, as he has done each year since he became governor.
The Beshears' total income included his gubernatorial salary of just more than $129,000, plus $45,000 in dividends and $24,000 in Social Security benefits.
The return shows the Beshears overpaid their taxes by more than $8,000 and received a refund for that amount.

The Shack
The Shack is a modest "hole in the wall" restaurant on Folsom Blv. I can honestly say my first impression was not positive. The outdoor seating included plastic chairs and rickety tables. Fortunately for me, I learned long ago looks can be deceiving. Shortly after we seated our waiter took our drink order. The Ro-Sham-Burgers were impressed with the outstanding beer selection which included Green Flash, Hocker Schorr Oktoberfest, and a Belgian Import called Triple Karmeliet. After our first brew the substandard furniture suddenly became part ofThe Shacks charm and backyard ambiance.
Our burgers consisted of the classic bacon cheeseburger and a roasted pablano pepper and jack cheese burger which our waiter thankfully recommended. All three burgers were made to order and cooked to a perfect medium rare. When brought to our table, they were still piping hot, juicy and flavorful. The produce and bun were more than adequate complements to the patty. All in all, The Shack gets an A+ from me. They will definitely see me again.

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) was passed to provide Americans, including Kentuckians, better access to health care coverage. A major component of increasing access to coverage is new federal funding for states to expand their Medicaid eligibility to 138 percent of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL). The U.S. Supreme Court made Medicaid expansion optional for states. Expansion is the right choice for Kentucky. Not expanding the program would hurt both Kentucky's health and taxpayers' bottom line.
*With or without expansion, ACA provides an increased federal match for the KCHIP program

Oregon rep salutes '1 nation under love'
Posted By -NO AUTHOR- On 01/17/2013 @ 11:38 pm In Faith,Politics | No Comments
(The Oregonian) When Rep. Carolyn Tomei, D-Milwaukie, led the Oregon House in reciting the Pledge of Allegiance on Monday, she substituted the word "love" for "God."
Tomei's "nation under love" line started attracting attention on the internet Tuesday after it was picked up by Oregon Catalyst, a conservative political blog. Some online commenters were quick to decry what they said was another attempt to sideline God in America.
Tomei said she didn't realize anybody would notice.

|Hypothalamo-pituitary sarcoidosis: a multicenter study of 24 patients.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 22753675 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|AIM: To assess clinical features, treatment and outcome of Hypothalamo-pituitary (HP) sarcoidosis and to determine whether HP is associated with a particular clinical phenotype of sarcoidosis. DESIGN: Multicentric retrospective study. METHODS: Retrospective chart review. Each patient was matched with two controls. RESULTS: Twenty-four patients were identified (10 women, 14 men). Their median age at the sarcoidosis diagnosis was 31.5 years (range: 8-69 years). HP involvement occurred in the course of a previously known sarcoidosis in 11 cases (46%), whereas it preceded the diagnosis in 13 patients (54%). All but two patients had anterior pituitary dysfunction, 12 patients presented with diabetes insipidus. The most common hormonal features were gonadotropin deficiency (n = 21), TSH deficiency (n = 15) and hyperprolactinemia (n = 12). Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) revealed infundibulum involvement (n = 8), pituitary stalk thickness (n = 12) and involvement of the pituitary gland (n = 14). All but two patients received prednisone. After a mean follow-up of 4 years, only two patients recovered from hormonal deficiencies. MRI abnormalities improved or disappeared in 12 cases under corticosteroid. There was no correlation between the hormonal dysfunctions and the radiologic outcomes. Patients with HP sarcoidosis had significantly more frequent sinonasal localizations and neurosarcoidosis and required a systemic treatment more frequently than controls. CONCLUSION: Although HP sarcoidosis is unusual, physicians should be aware that such specific localization could be the first manifestation of sarcoidosis. HP involvement is associated with general severity of sarcoidosis. MRI abnormalities can improve or disappear under corticosteroid treatment, but most endocrine defects are irreversible.

text: Associations Now Home > Resources > Associations Now Strengthen Your Executive Presence Associations Now, September/October 2012 Brain Power What is executive presence? Executive presence means having confidence and charisma and allowing others to see how strong an employee you are. A fine-tuned executive presence is not only for the executive ranks; it's for everyone. How can association professionals strengthen their executive presence? Ask yourself how you view strong leadership in your organization and the association community. Then clarify how you want to be perceived and create your own presence statement that addresses how you will work as a leader. For midcareer association professionals, the opportunity to clarify how you wish to be perceived is invaluable. Your presence statement should include one or two things you will do differently to allow you to be perceived that way. For a more senior executive, an executive-presence audit also is necessary. The first step is to seek feedback from others regarding their perceptions of you. Without this, it is difficult to know how you are and are not working. Unfortunately, often the more senior you become, the less feedback you get. No matter where you are in your career, ask yourself these questions: What's working? How am I perceived by the board, members, and stakeholders? What can I be doing more of? What do I need to be doing less of?

Tuesday night at Bridgestone Arena, the Nashville Predators' annual Meet The Team event was held, allowing season ticket holders the opportunity to meet and get autographs from their favorite Preds players and coaches. And while it was awesome to shake hands with Craig Smith, Jon Blum, and Ryan Suter, all I really wanted to do was GET KOZY (Photos courtesy of Carrie Rashford).
Putting Kozy on the Hot Seat
It was the moment that made it all worth it; the final application of 'don't hurt no more' to salve the wound; the moment that will last forever. What am I talking about? I'm talking about that which every victim of violence deserves: the right to confront his attacker!
Well…okay. He didn't really attack me, but you know what I mean.
By now you've probably heard (or read) about my misfortune in St. Louis last Saturday night. I was on the wrong end of an errant puck during pregame warm-ups. Nashville Predators' forward, Sergei Kostitsyn fired a shot that caromed off the goal crossbar on a 45-degree angle, popping up into the air, backwards and to the right, soaring some 75 feet like some kind of heat-seeking missile to the exact spot where I was standing — and not looking at the ice. When someone called out the warning that a puck was in the air, I looked up just in time to see the rubber disk tumbling toward my face.
I got plunked good, but the end result was about as good as anyone could have hoped. I missed the game, spending the next four hours between the Scottrade Center's first aid station and a local St. Louis hospital to get the one-and-a-half-inch slice stitched up. There were no facial fractures, I wasn't concussed, and honestly, it really didn't even hurt.
On further review, the cut on my high left cheek, I have now surmised was created not by my glasses frame as I'd originally assumed, but rather, it was the left glasses lens that popped out on impact with the puck. After thinking about it some more, I realized that the cut was too clean to have been made by the rounded edges of my glasses frame, and the edge of the lens, while not razor sharp is definitely enough so to easily do the job.
The actual agent of damage doesn't really matter anyway; the important part is, I came away pretty cheaply compared to what could have happened, and you bet'cha by golly I'm counting my lucky stars for that.
However, from the moment I realized that I really was okay, I began plotting my revenge!
Well…okay. Not really REVENGE revenge, but you know what I mean.
I knew that just three days later I'd have the chance to at least get the puck that struck me autographed by the reluctant assassin himself…and guilt-trip the heck out of 'im while I was at it.
Victimizing the Assailant
Tuesday night, the annual Predators Meet The Team event was held at Bridgestone Arena. Unlike the "good old days" at one of these events, when you could visit every player table and collect autographs from all the Predators team member participating, now that we have all these darned extra STHs, you really have to make a calculated decision early on as to which of the 4-5 tables you truly want to visit, because I'm sorry, you're probably not gonna make it through all of 'em in the time allotted.
I ended up making it to four tables that night, but the one I absolutely refused to miss was manned by Frankie Bouillon and my target for the evening, forward Sergei Kostitsyn.
Just like me, Sergei wouldn't know what hit him.
Now obviously, back in St. Louis on Saturday, I wasn't in a position to see or even inquire about who it was that had hit the puck that ended up hitting me. However, I was told by several from our group who observed what happened, that of all the Nashville players on the ice, Kostitsyn showed the most concern directed over to the right side half-wall area where the puck went into the stands. He supposedly looked…then stopped…then looked some more. So it appeared that he knew that he was the responsible party.
I was determined that I was either gonna give him a hard time about it Tuesday night or look really stupid trying. Maybe I could go for both.
Special thanks to the very kind efforts of the delightful Carrie Rashford (@lilcarebear82 on Twitter), who took valuable time away from her own autograph-collecting on Tuesday night in order to position herself to capture the moment (you can click the photos to view them at a larger size).
When my turn in line came up, with the offending puck in hand, I strode to Kostitsyn's position and slapped it down on the table, face-up, revealing the St. Louis Post-Dispatch promotional logo printed on the front. I said, "Serrrgei… Do you recognize this?" Kostitsyn displayed a puzzled look as he picked up and inspected the puck for a second or two. Then he looked back up at me and gave a brief shrug.
I pulled off my glasses and said, "Okay then, do you recognize THIS?" showing him my left eye.
The reaction was priceless.
Kostitsn's expression kinda reminded me of that old-fashioned wind-up siren they have people crank up at the beginning of the second and third periods at Predators home games; it took a second for it to register, but when he realized what the relationship between he, the puck, and my purple left eye was, his eyes grew as big as saucers.
"Ohhh…OOOOOHHHH!" Kostitsyn emoted, as a huge smile came over each of our faces and everyone burst into laughter.
Meanwhile, sitting to Kostitsyn's right, Frankie Bouillon was wearing a puzzled smile. "What did he do to you? He chuckled. "He hit me with the puck!" I said in mock derision.
Sergei signed the puck and I shook his hand, assuring him that I was fine, but I just had to give him a bit of a hard time about it. Everybody had a good laugh. Kostitsyn appeared a little embarrassed, and may not have understood everything I said, but I know he understood that there was no ill will on my part.
I'm just very happy it all turned out the way it did.

Leggy's Finding His Legs Early in the Season
I know it's early, but could we be seeing an offensively-minded David Legwand for the entire 2011-12 season? The original Preds draft pick has been a force in the offensive zone in each of the past two postseasons, but from the get-go this year, he appears to be picking up right where he left off last May.
The apparent number one line of Legwand, Colin Wilson, and rookie sensation Craig Smith has been dynamic in Nashville's opening two games, with Leggy notching two goals and three assists for five points on the young season. Smith is not far behind with an even two goals and two assists for four points. The talented youngster will attempt to extend his Predators rookie record for goals in consecutive games to begin an NHL career at three with another marker tonight in the team's home opener against the Phoenix Coyotes at Bridgestone Arena at 7pm.

Special Team Dreams
It's something that everyone has noticed, but few have dared to assume. The Predators appear to have real momentum on the power play that started in the preseason and has carried right on into the regular season's first two games. The PP has gone a combined 3-for-7 thus far (a 42.9% clip), attacking with brisk puck movement seldom seen in Nashville since the days of Paul Kariya. Not quite so surprising, but just as importantly, the penalty kill has also been outstanding, having gone 9-for-10 in the team's initial two games.

Press Release: January 3, 2013
National Archives at Kansas City
Author and Editor Monroe Dodd to Discuss Kansas Then & Now at the National Archives
For More Information Contact:
Kimberlee Ried, 816-268-8072
Kansas City, (MO)… On Tuesday, January 29 at 6:30 p.m. the National Archives will host Monroe Dodd who will discuss his book Kansas Then & Now. A 6:00 p.m. reception will precede this event. Dodd will sign copies of the book after the program.
In Kansas Then & Now, a photography book, Dodd highlights scenes from Kansas history from territorial days to the late 20th century, and photographed the same scene today, as closely as possible from the place the original photographer stood. Included are places where momentous events occurred and famous people strode the earth, as well as everyday places featuring everyday people who did the most extraordinary thing - they created a community out of prairie and plain. The results are fascinating. Cattle and horses travel a dirt-packed Massachusetts Street in Lawrence; covered wagons prepare to move out in downtown Paola; buffalo hunters gear up outside the newly built courthouse in Great Bend. Dozens upon dozens of villages, towns and cities, spanning the entirety of Kansas, are featured in these pages.
Copies of Kansas Then & Now will be available for purchase onsie via The Kansas City Store. To make a reservation for this free event call 816-268-8010 or email email@example.com.

I would make a difference between legal and illegal immigrants, but I agree that "outsiders" of either category are likely to meet a cold reception in many areas of Utah, if not all. It's called "pride" which is the greatest stumbling block in Zion.

"It's called 'pride' which is the greatest stumbling block in Zion."
Not so. It's called wariness, distrust, unsureness of strangers in the midst. And how did that come about? Mormon ancestors were kicked out of at lease two cities that they established decades ago with their blood, sweat and tear. And their leaders were killed in cold blood by a mob. Then, when they moved themselves to Utah after much difficult toiling and tribulation, the government sent an army after them to harass some more. This skepticism has found it's way into the DNA passing from generation to generation until now and will take a long time to dissipate.
That same distrust of strangers is a fundamental cause for the Mountain Meadow Massacre.

@Mr Bean
I have heard people referred to as "Euro Trash", on a Utah talk radio station, merely because they come from Europe, the idea being very popular among many listeners too. These are not Mexicans or illegally here. I have heard people of British background attacked from the pulpit more than once.
I am not talking about wariness of illegal aliens I am talking about hostility to people of other nationalities and the idea, if it can be called that, that if you are born US you are superior, all else being second or third rate. I am talking about small town mentality which views 'outsiders' askance and looks on them with enmity.
OTOH I am against illegal immigration and against amnesty, yet the Romney contempt for other nations is not restricted to him; it is widespread in Utah, as well as other states.
I would neither exaggerate or minimize the problem but look it straight in the face. I do not think that all are guilty of it but many are.

WASHINGTON » The average rate on the 30-year fixed mortgage held steady this week, staying slightly above the lowest level on record. Low mortgage rates have aided a modest housing recovery.
Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said Thursday that the rate on the 30-year loan was unchanged at 3.55 percent. In July, the rate fell to 3.49 percent, the lowest since long-term mortgages began in the 1950s.
The average on the 15-year fixed mortgage, a popular refinancing option, slipped to 2.85 percent, down from 2.86 percent last week. That's above the record low of 2.80 percent.
I remember the days in the early 80s where the prime rate was at 21.50% and mortgage rates were at 18.50%. Courtesy of Jimmy Carter. What we are witnessing today through Obama is what Jimmy Carter's 2nd term would have looked like.

These baked doughnuts channel one of my other favorite treats, carrot cake! The batter comes together much more quickly than cake, however, with fine bits of carrot throughout and a pleasant note of spice and sweetness from dashes of cinnamon and nutmeg and a splash of vanilla. To make these doughnuts even more like carrot cake, I frosted them with tangy cream cheese icing and a sprinkle of crunchy pecans. Here's how to make them!
To begin, we mix up our dry ingredients in a bowl: flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg.

Victorian Square in Sparks was abuzz with folks on the Fourth of July 2012.
- Filed Under
: My wife and I retired to the area this year. We are residents of Sparks. Before that we lived in Woodbury a suburb of St Paul, Minnesota. Residents of the State of Nevada are called Nevadans. Residents of the city of Reno are called Renoites. Residents of the city of Sparks are called what?
Nick Thomas, Sparks
Answer: The historical answer to this question would be "Railroaders," but don't tell that to Spanish Springs and Reed high school students - they are Cougars and Raiders, respectively. Sparks High School students are Railroaders.
The Southern Pacific Railroad purchased swampland just east of Reno in 1903 to realign its tracks and Sparks was incorporated in 1905 with a population of 1,500, according to the Sparks Heritage Museum's website.

Two Chemical Engineering Researchers Take On The Challenge of Concrete - Tech Times Article - Submitted by Karen Lykins
We walk on it, work in structures built with it, drive on it and for the most part take for granted our use of the most abundant synthetic material on earth—Portland cement concrete.
But researchers around the world remain baffled in many ways about the behavior of a material made from the most plentiful and simple raw materials. It's hard to predict how long it will last, how badly it will crack and how much negative environmental impact it will make.
At Tennessee Tech University, colleagues and chemical engineering researchers Joe Biernacki and Don Visco are working to help unravel some of the mystery surrounding concrete. The American Ceramic Society, ACerS, recently featured their work in a publication dedicated to highlighting cement researchers who are working to bring new strength, flexibility, self-healing capacities and a smaller CO2 footprint to concrete.
Biernacki says modern concrete just doesn't last long enough, and one way to reduce the environmental impact is to double, triple or even quadruple its life expectancy in the field.
"In an ideal world, we would produce cements that had no carbon footprint. The work we do we link to the environment," Biernacki said. "If we can make concrete last twice as long, just a factor of two would be remarkable. It would certainly make concrete more environmentally friendly."
The TTU duo developed a technique for encoding the structure of molecules that have a particular performance behavior. They run the data through a computer model to correlate performance and predict new molecular structures to enhance performance.
"We hope to design entirely new molecules with targeted performance enhancing characteristics," Biernacki said. "This has the potential to enable the design of concrete mixtures with unique rheological [the flow under stress and strain] properties, for example."
Biernacki also summarized the enigmatic challenges of concrete research in a recent article.
He says more than 2,000 years after the Romans built great and enduring structures using hydraulic cements, modern science is still baffled about the behavior of concrete because there is no unifying theory.
"It's limestone, shale, stones and water. What's so baffling? It's simple, burn the limestone and shale to produce some calcium silicates and calcium aluminates, add a bit of gypsum, grind into a powder, put some stones in, mix with water and let it set. No big deal, right?
"Unfortunately, the resulting concoction turns out to be incredibly complex," Biernacki explained.
To add to the challenge, the final and important steps to creating concrete take place in the field by necessity. Environmental conditions play a huge part in the final product.
Finally, concrete is not one material, but a spectrum of materials designed to match the application. Some must be strong, some porous, and some tough.
"Controlling the properties is the key," said Biernacki. "Not just making a lot of it the same every day.
"Ultimately, we are working to alter the kinetics of hydration to unlock the elusive secrets of this important material."
Chemical Engineering Undergraduate Student Chosen to Represent the College of Engineering for Posters at the Capitol
Antonio Pistono better know to us as Tony has been chosen as the College of Engineering representative for the Posters at the Capitol event on February 3 at the Tennessee Capitol. This event highlights undergraduate research at the state universities in Tennessee. Tony will have a poster presentation within the legislative complex, a possible chance to meet with his local representative and senator, and answer questions about his work from those passing through the halls of the legislative office areas.
Biernacki win 2009 Caplenor Faculty Research Award
Two Tennessee Tech University researchers adept at integrating research and teaching responsive to the needs of U.S. and worldwide industries have been honored as winners of the university's most prestigious research award. Mohamed Abdelrahman, electrical and computer engineering professor, and Joe Biernacki, chemical engineering professor, are the 2009 Caplenor Faculty Research Award recipients.

Most of the home buyers feel that they don't need to hire any agent in order to buy a perfect home for their family and they think that they can do it themselves. There is no law that prevents you, as a man with buying property without professional Real Estate help you. You can search for homes, organize a show, and even negotiate on your own. In fact, the question may be "Do you want to do it yourself?"
If you decide to "go on your own," your choices will obviously be very limited. Only at home that you can buy without the help of an agent are those that are "For Sale By Owner" (FSBO), usually a small percentage of the market. Those homeowners who for some reason decided to not use services of an agent to sell their home. This may be because they think they can get more return on their investment without paying a commission, or it may be because there was not an agent who would be their home is listed at unreasonably high prices, they believed that their home worth it.
Many analysts of the real estate have been established that selling prices for most homes FSBO equal or higher than those listed agents. The fact remains that, as you know, that house is where you're going to get the information that will allow you to analyze the most recent home sales for this model is that way, and this area? Do you really want to take the responsibility to save a few thousand dollars? You need to make a determination of whether or not the house is worth the asking price, you can do it without your agent, do your homework for you.
The last thing you may want to consider this, I'm really ready to accept all the obligations to do it myself? I really know how to represent you in a real estate transaction? Do I have the resources to determine the precise analysis of the real value of the property; I'm going to make an offer? I know all about the disclosure laws, which protect themselves in real estate transactions, and that the effects of mean to me? If you are a little unclear about any of these areas, it will be in your best interest to be represented by agent's own buyer's end, you have nothing to lose, and it will not cost you a penny.
Exclusive buyer agents are specialists in the home buying process and Laclede County real estate. This higher level of professional service for buyers has resulted in an average of over 5% savings and greater satisfaction for home buyers. Because these agents do not list property, they do not have company listings to try to sell to you first.

Dear Merced College Community,
Please note the following film presentation today, Wednesday, April 30th, 3pm-5pm, MC Room V 140:
The Promised Land (1967-1968):
In this month and year, on April 4th, 2008, the nation recognized the 40th anniversary of the passing of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
In the final year of Dr. Martin Luther King's life, the movement for justice and civil rights turned its attention to the economic issues confronting the nation. Dr. King also confronted the war in Vietnam. Moved by the increasing level of poverty, Dr. King and his staff searched for a strategy to effect a recognition of the level of destitution in this country. They began to organize a "Poor People's Campaign", a march of the poor to Washington to D.C. where they would erect Resurrection City to embarrass and motivate a reluctant government. In the midst of organizing the campaign, Dr. King was called away to help black sanitation workers on strike in Memphis. On April 4th, 1968, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated in Memphis. He was 39 years of age.
For further information, please contact the Diversity Committee Chair, Professor Art Cardoza, at extension 6356.
Thank you,
Dr. Amerjit K. Johl
Professor of History
Merced College

(CNN) - Hope you stocked up on forever stamps? If you didn't, you're about to pay more the next time you mail.
The U.S. Postal Service is upping the cost of a stamp by a penny to 46 cents for a letter and 33 cents for a postcard.
The change takes effect this Sunday.
If it seems like the price of stamps just went up recently, you're not far off.
It was one year ago this week when we saw the last one cent bump.

Our Apartment
Friday, we heard the doorbell and there were the owners, extremely apologetic as their cleaner had quit without telling them (ironically she'd gone back to England) and they had no idea until they had just heard the apartment had not been sorted out.
They had also brought over all clean towels, bedding and they took our washing, and as way of an apology they had bought us a brand new microwave oven!
Now that is what you call service!
Poland is full of such lovely people and you're honestly all missing out.
1 comment:
the point is that poles can be really nice to guests, especially those from over the border, but in everyday life they are as much greedy, unfair and unpleasant as anywhere else in "civilized" parts of the world. i mean, poles are really special, because I'm quite sure that germans or british citizens wouldn't be so nice to us if we paid them a visit. at least germans didn't. but still, swiss people are also very pleasant. concluding, i guess it's a kind of national tradition to welcome strangers so warmly.ReplyDelete

Finished my book whilst on-board and went to the library to see what they had, well people leave paperbacks there for others to read and if you take them but don't finish them you can take them home with you. I found a book that looked OK and finished it whilst still on-board, that book was called 'Juliet Naked' by Nick Hornsby, a good book and easy to read, now I'm looking to read some more of his. He was the one who wrote 'About A Boy' which was turned into a film starring Hugh Grant.
Been asked to move this from "how not to miss the unmissable" thread, we'd changed from programmes to books ~sorry.
I've started reading the True Blood books by Charlaine Harris got this boxed set a lot cheaper than buying them individually
Play.com (UK) : True Blood Boxed Set (8 Book Collection) - Charlaine Harris : Books - Free Delivery
It's confusing though if you are watching the series as they are so different ~ like the Bones series and the Kathy Riechs books.

I would recommend Jeffrey Archer books to anyone who likes a good yarn. I've read them all and found them all 'can't put downable'
