Author recounts experiences as an Eisenhower
Part 1 of 4
Anyone wondering what it's like to be a member of one of this nation's most illustrious families would do well to talk with Kathryn "Kaye" S. Eisenhower Morgan of Arroyo Grande, Calif.
Morgan, who lived in North Charleroi during some of her formative years and was graduated from Charleroi High School in 1952, has been there, done that. And she is writing a book about her experiences as the daughter of a state legislator and the niece of Dwight David Eisenhower, military hero of World War II and the 34th president of the United States.
Her first book, the first edition of "The Eisenhower Legacy: A Tribute to Ida Stover Eisenhower and David Jacob Eisenhower" (Roesler Enterprises Publishing) was released in 2010. It is available at Amazon.com or by contacting Morgan at email@example.com.
Ida and David Eisenhower were Morgan's grandparents.
"I wrote the book to clarify some of the myths and untruths about my family, their origins, et al," Morgan said. "It is strictly about David and Ida, their formative years, how they both traveled west, met and married and raised their sons to adulthood. It ends about 1946 when Ida died."
The book is dedicated to Morgan's grandparents and chronicles their lives together raising six rambunctious boys — Arthur, Edgar, Dwight, Roy, Earl and Milton — in Abilene, Kan. The late Earl Dewey "Red" Eisenhower Sr. was Morgan's father.
"Many people think there were only five brothers," Morgan said. "Roy died in 1942 shortly after his father David passed away. That kind of left (Roy) out of the notoriety of the Eisenhower routine that covered the press in the next several years. Actually, there were seven boys — an infant brother, Paul, was born in 1894 and died in 1895 at the age of 10 months. Ida, my grandmother, grieved for him the rest of her life."
As poor boys coming from parents who were highly educated for the time and place (rural Kansas), the Eisenhower brothers "developed an unusual consciousness about being the Eisenhowers," Morgan says in her book.
"Life was never easy during those times, their collective success seemingly stemming from strict discipline, Bible study, regular church attendance and adherence to the Golden Rule," she said. "They made lives of their own, leaving a legacy for future generations of Eisenhowers."
John S.D. Eisenhower, son of President Eisenhower, wrote the foreword in his cousin's book.
"This book, researched with incredible thoroughness and highly readable, may well turn out to be the most definitive treatment ever written on the Eisenhowers of Abilene," he said. "It is a history, not only of a single family, but also of a Western culture, the memory of which is worth keeping."
Perpetuating that legacy, Morgan emphasized, was not always easy.
She recalls the unfounded rumors that circulated across the campus during her freshman year at Pennsylvania State College (now The Pennsylvania State University).
"Uncle Ike was running for President at the time (1952), and I wasn't really keen on letting it be known I was an Eisenhower," Morgan said. "There were stories that I got drunk at a party and they were completely false, perhaps created out of jealousy, spite or dislike for my uncle. The truth did come out eventually that I was an Eisenhower and then everyone wanted to be my friend – or in many cases, a boyfriend — because they were interested only in my name. It was rather hectic at times."
She also recalled the avalanche of publicity when her uncle hit the news, "how reporters descended on us, how my mother was unable to handle the pressure, how I got to go politicking with my dad."
There was no escaping the Eisenhower spotlight.
Dwight D. Eisenhower became a five-star general in the U.S. Army during World War II and served as supreme commander of Allied Forces in Europe. He was responsible for the successful invasions of North Africa, France and Germany that led to the end of the war. He also served as the first supreme commander of NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization), as Chief of Staff of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under President Harry S Truman and as president of Columbia University in New York City before becoming the Republican candidate for president in 1952.
"He was a true American hero, larger than life," Morgan said. "There was no getting around that and we had to learn to deal with it. We knew him as Uncle Ike, one of the Eisenhower brothers and a man who was, at times, much different than his public persona. But when someone in your family is thrust into the public eye the way he was, it affects everyone."
That was demonstrated in a big way in 1945, after World War II ended, and a major homecoming was held for Uncle Ike and "the entire Eisenhower family" in Abilene. Everyone rode a train bound for Abilene and a celebration at the family homestead. Kaye was "only 10 or 11" at the time but was quick to notice that other passengers on the train moved aside to let the Eisenhowers pass by on their way to the dining car.
"They treated us with the greatest respect," she said. "It was as though they were in awe of anyone named Eisenhower. My uncle was the man of the hour, but people extended the esteem to everyone in the family."
There were several Abilene homecomings over the years, Morgan said.
"Most of the time it was just the six brothers," she said. "But the really big one, with extended family, wives and children, was in 1945. A riotous time! Such memories! The homecomings were Uncle Ike's doing. He was a great family man and a prodigious letter writer."
The Eisenhower brothers also enjoyed regular poker parties at the White House and "all of them were expected to attend," Morgan said.
The brothers also enjoyed fishing expeditions, one of which provided a treasured moment in family lore.
"They were on a fishing trip somewhere in Wisconsin in 1946 and The Milwaukee Journal sent a photographer there to get what became a truly famous picture of the Eisenhower brothers," Morgan said. "It was eventually signed by all the brothers except my father, who is the one in the picture with the fishhook caught on his pants. He is struggling to remove it and all his brothers are laughing uproariously at his predicament."
The classic photo is just one of myriad documents, pictures and artifacts displayed at the Dwight D. Eisenhower Presidential Library and Museum in Abilene (www.eisenhower.archives.gov). Morgan has donated a large array of family memorabilia to the library.

Industrial appliance rapid prototyping usually need to use rubber, and this material must be made by vacuum casting. so the advantage of vacuum casting is that there are so many materials to choose.
Our selection of PU resins include: AXSON from France and HEI-CAST and PELNOX from Japan. The properties of the Thermoset Plastics are similar to engineering plastics: ABS, PMMA, PC, PP, PE, PA, POM and others. We offer high impact and high temperature (150 degree) fire resistant UL94-V0 rate materials and glass filled resins. We aslo offer transparent, translucent and opaque materials in a variety of different shore durometers and colorations.
Using rapid vacuum casting can save time and money. Sillicone molds will generally produce 15~30 parts before degradation. KAIAO technicians quickly make master patterns and within a few days make sillicon molds to be used for casting PU products.

UPDATE: As of 10:00pm, March 25, the Parkersburg Police Department reports that Christina Logston has turned herself in.
After her story aired on WTAP News at 6 , several tips came into the police department leading them to four different area residences.
Soon after, Logston turned herself into the police department.
Police are still searching for a woman suspected of slipping drugs into a hospital nurse's drink after an altercation.
Police say on, or around, January 16th while she was at Camden-Clark Memorial Hospital, Christina Logston got into a fight with one of the nurses on staff.
After the incident, they say Logston slipped an unknown dosage of Adderall into the nurse's drink.
Adderall is an amphetamine that's used to treat ADHD.
After the incident, Logston then left the hospital.
When the nurse realized something was wrong, she reported it to the Parkersburg Police Department.
"She faces a felony charge of Possession with the Intent to Deliver a Controlled Substance and that can carry a one to five year sentence and up to a $15,000 fine," says Lieutenant John Young, Parkersburg Police Department.
Lieutenant Young believes Logston is still in the area and says it's important that she's taken off the streets.
Christina Logston has brown hair, hazel eyes, she's 5'4 inches and weighs 185 pounds.
If you see her, make sure you call the Parkersburg Police Department at 304-424-8444.

St Pauls 'forgets' Remembrance Sunday
'What, with all the tents outside and the dean leaving, the fact that we needed to hold a Remembrance Sunday service completely slipped my mind' said red-faced Dr Richard Chartres, the Bishop of London.
How can we be expected to keep up? It's not just the tents, we've been flat out trying to fathom out what Christingle means and whether we should add yet another ceremony for that into our already packed ecclesiastical schedule.
We just forgot. Simple as that. If only there was some sort of clue in the ceremony's name, or something. Or some token people could wear, to flag it up. Oh, hang on…'

On March 19, 2001, the Department of Public Instruction received a complaint under state and federal special education law from XXXXX against the Watertown School District. The issue in this investigation is whether the district, during the 2000-2001 school year, failed to implement provisions of the childs individualized education program (IEP) requiring preferential seating, shortened assignments and extra time to complete assignments. This is the departments decision for that complaint.
An IEP developed for the child during an IEP team meeting held December 13, 2000, requires supplementary aids and services including "preferential seatingextra time[and] shortened assignments." Complainant alleges that these supplementary aids and services were not provided for her child. A school district must ensure that all services specified in a child's IEP are provided.
Based on materials submitted by the district, including portions of the child's records, and on discussions with the complainant, two of the child's teachers, a building principal and the director of special education, the department determines that the district did provide the supplementary aids and services in his IEP. Following development of the IEP, both the child's classroom and special education teachers did afford him more time to complete assignments and did reduce the amount of work which is expected of him as compared with his classmates. Both teachers provided the department with specific examples of how they fulfill this requirement. Preferential seating is provided for him both at a desk in the back of the room when he needs it, and another seat at a table at the front of the room which he utilizes when his teacher uses the chalkboard or overhead projector.
Two IEP team meetings were held in March and one in April, two of which were held after the district learned this complaint had been filed. The team discussed the complainant's concerns and staff explained how these supplementary aids and services are provided for the child. The IEP was clarified by explaining in greater detail what the teachers had been doing in providing supplementary aids and services. The teachers also are clearly marking at the top of each homework assignment what portion of it is to be completed by the student. Finally, the team ensured that the IEP addresses the student's educational needs resulting from a medical diagnosis made after completion of the December IEP.
We are closing this complaint investigation.

What is the differecne between a "stochastic world" and a "partially observable world", and how does that it change the problem that an RL agent has to solve?
I have read "Reinforcement Learning: An Introduction" by Sutton and Barto. In the textbooks question Noel Welsh comments about it:
I have noticed that many examples use deterministic environments, but I understood that almost all methods also work for stochastic environments. Does it really make a difference to the learning strategy (or the function approximator) of an agent if the environment is not fully observable? I have recently started to read about the concept of causality, is it maybe connected to that?
asked Apr 15 '12 at 07:45
Try to get your hands on "probabilistic robotics". It talks about POMDPs a lot more.
The short answer to your question is: If there are unobserved states, it is much harder to learn a good policy.yes, unobserved states are a lot more difficult to learn a good policy.
In an MDP, the reward you optain from getting from one state to another with a given action is fixed. In a POMDP it is not.
Also, in a stochastic environment, you can learn which action will lead to which state with which probability. This is not so easy in a POMDP, where the state you end up in will depend on unobserved variables.
(Apr 15 '12 at 08:16) Andreas Mueller
Partially observed is a world in which you don't observe everything there is to observe. A stochastic world, however, is a world that obeys a certain probability distribution, and is not, for example, behaving adversarially (that is, always choosing the worst possible reaction to your actions) or deterministically (that is, always doing the same thing when you do something).
(Apr 16 '12 at 18:07) Alexandre Passos ♦
Thanks for the comments. My current conclusion is: in a partially observable world (which can also be stochastic), you can use past observations to make a better guess about the current state of the world, and thus better decisions. In a stochastic (but fully observable) world, the past observations are completely useless (except for the learning process, of course).
I didn't consider adversarial worlds so far (I guess those would include games like chess).
(Apr 20 '12 at 02:25) maxy
As far as I know, in stochastic environments, there are no "observations". You know in which state you are.
(Apr 20 '12 at 03:57) Andreas Mueller
In a stochastic world there is a transition probability distribution which determines which state the agent moves to next given the current state and the action it takes e.g. in the GridWorld, the robot takes an action that is supposed to move it to a neighbouring square but with some probability, it ends up failing and lands in a random square. In general, MDPs have stochastic transitions but they are completely observable, the agent always knows exactly which state it's in.
In a partially observable setting, the current state is unknown and the best we can do is indirectly obtain information about it through an observation model (POMDPs) or a test (PSR's). This adds an extra level of complexity to a planning problem because we have to choose the best action according to our belief state (distribution over all possible states). Also we must take into account our uncertainty in future states when planning (e.g we might not be able to execute plans which depend on us knowing which state we will be in in the future).

Tufin Looks To Take Firewall Management To The Next Level
Tufin Technologies has long offered tools for managing firewalls and has even provided capabilities to monitor next-generation, application-aware firewalls. But with the new release of the Tufin Security Suite 6.0, the company makes it possible to directly set and define next-generation firewall policies from their management tools. The Tufin Security Suite includes the company's SecureTrack firewall management and compliance application, along with the SecureChange tool for security change automation.
Security and firewall management has always been a complex task, but the addition of next-generation firewalls can make things even tougher. While traditional firewalls concern themselves mainly with controlling access of networks through ports and protocols (for example, blocking traffic that is not on Port 80 or blocking UDP traffic), next-generation firewalls look for specific types of application traffic passing through the network. So, for example, a company with a next-generation firewall could block access to Facebook for most employees while allowing marketing and PR personnel to use the social network.
Ruvi Kitov, Tufin's CEO and co-founder, says, "Previously, the whitelist and blacklist were only network-zoned, so you could set 'from anywhere to anywhere, don't allow telnet.' Now, you can say, 'In all my next-gen firewalls, I don't want to ever allow Facebook because that's not corporate policy.' We are enabling administrators to enforce corporatewide policies within Tufin at the user and application level as well."
The Tufin Security Suite 6.0 provides the ability to manage next-generation firewalls from vendor Palo Alto Networks. If a business is set up to use the Tufin tools to manage their security, they no longer have to leave those tools to define application-aware policies for their next-generation firewall.
Among the many new features in the Tufin Security Suite is a topology map for discovering devices on the network. This provides a graphical and interactive view into all connected devices in an organization's network. Pricing for the Tufin Security Suite 6.0 starts at $20,000.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) -- A self-professed hit man says he was hired to kill the prosecution's star witness to cover tracks in the gangland-style slaying of former SunCruz casino owner Konstantinos "Gus" Boulis.
Brandreth said Ferrari flew him to New York to convince Fiorillo they were going to get him out of town before the cops found him. But Brandreth said, "I was really coming up to kill him."
Brandreth abandoned the plan because he didn't have a gun or enough money.
The defense tried to discredit Brandreth and made frequent references to his lengthy rap sheet and drug history.

Published on 13.08.2011
Written by Tore B. Krudtaa
The news media is full of allegations which claims that the world need GM crops in order to produce enough food for a growing population, and that the conventional farmers should start using GM crops in order to produce more food per hectare, producing food with more nutrients and using less insecticides and herbicides. Are these allegations really true, or is it just empty words produced by the GMO industry and their followers?
Below are some insightful quotes from people and organizations without a tight connection with the GMO industry. Time to get all those myths about GM crops put where they belong.

Pitt coach Paul Chryst's visit to his native Wisconsin paid a dividend Wednesday: Oconomowoc High School linebacker Zach Poker became the 26th player to verbally commit to the Panthers.
The 6-foot-4, 230-pound Poker had offers from Air Force, Army, Syracuse, Central Michigan and Western Michigan, but he chose Pitt after he visited last weekend.
"It's a great combination of athletics, education and players and coaches," said Poker, who wants to major in mechanical engineering.
Pitt recruited Poker — a two-star recruit, according to Rivals.com — to be an outside linebacker, but he also has a talent for catching the football. He caught 50 passes for 753 yards and eight touchdowns last season. He has played tight end, fullback and receiver.
"We'll see where my body takes me," he said.
Poker is the second linebacker in Pitt's Class of 2013, joining Matt Galambos of Havertown. Poker committed with little fanfare.
"He did not hold a news conference," Oconomowoc coach Ryan McMillen said. "Coach (Chryst) was excited; (Zach) was excited. He committed and went back to class."
Pitt receiver prospect Jester Weah of Madison (Wis.) Memorial will announce his college choice Friday, his coach, Mike Galindo, said.
Pitt offered Weah, a three-star recruit, a scholarship last weekend during his visit. Weah also is considering Colorado State, Wyoming, Ohio and Bowling Green, among others.Weah would give Pitt depth at a position where it is losing seniors Mike Shanahan and Cam Saddler.

Whenever I travel, I always get asked about the great cocktail scene here in Portland. While Portland does have a strong cocktail culture, just like all other cities, we've got our share of dogs too. If you are coming to Portland and looking for a great cocktail, check the places below out and you won't be disappointed.
Beaker & Flask Do cocktails get any better than Kevin Ludwig and Tim Davey's creations at Beaker? The short answer is no. Chef Ben Bettinger cooks up some of the most creative and inspired cuisine in town too.
Laurelhurst Market Evan Zimmerman and Elizabeth Markham behind the same bar? Food by the Simpatica guys? This is one not to be missed.
Lincoln Restaurant While Lincoln may well be more famous for Chef Jenn Lewis' food, the bar here offers a short but exceptionally well executed cocktail list as well as great wines by the glass. My favorite restaurant in Portland. They also feature wonderful nonalcoholic sodas in interesting flavors.
Carlyle Restaurant The two Jakes (Martin & Grier) work their magic here. Try Chef Jake Martin's famous burger while sipping one of wunderkind bartender Jake Grier's creations. Not a cheap evening, but well worth the money for this kind of elegance.
Ten01 Kelley Swenson is arguably the best bartender in Portland, and perhaps the entire state of Oregon. His creations are unique, seasonal and pair will with the creative cuisine from the kitchen. Ten01 has an interesting spirits list and great beer wine selections.
Branch Whiskey Bar Whats not to love about a neighborhood tavern offering classic cocktails, upscale comfort food and great hospitality. Bartenders Evan Furey and Andrew Finkleman are both great local finds.
Andina Greg Hoitsma remains one of my favorite bartenders in the city of Portland. His knowledge and appreciation for pisco is unmatched in the city and his alcoholic creations please both the bridge & tunnel crowd as well as sophisticated diners.
Spints Alehouse Brand spankin' new, featuring talented refugees from Teardrop Lounge in owner/chef Alyssa Gregg and bar manager Ted Charak, Spints has a great cocktail list to complement a well designed beer list and Gregg's delicious food.
Secret Society Intimate, relaxing and sophisticated, Secret Society is a secret no more, with crowds filling its bar space most nights of the week. A great place to grab a drink before or after dinner at its downstairs neighbor Toro Bravo.
Urban Farmer If bar manager Daniel Stern is behind the bar, just put yourself in his hands as he guides you through his outstanding repetoire of classic cocktails and modern creations. Urban Farmer is the only bar in Portland aging their own supply of whiskey behind the bar, ask the bartenders about the different woods of the barrels and how they are affecting the flavor profiles for an interesting education.
Veritable Quandry The VQ as its known to locals is one of Portland's classic old school watering holes as well as a great restaurant. VQ's bacon wrapped dates (stuffed with chevre and marcona almonds) make a great accompaniment to their seasonal cocktail menu. Also look for a great single malt scotch selection at reasonable prices.
Meriwethers Having fallen off the culinary map in Portland for a time with the departure of Tommy Habetz, Meriwethers bar program has always been a strong point under the leadership of Lud Dulka. A small but creative cocktail list, great wines and the best outdoor patio in all of Portland make this a must stop in northwest Portland.
Serratto Restaurant Serratto is a restaurant first, and a bar second. This establishment probably wouldn't make this list except for the talents of their incredible bartender Kurt. While the food is quite good and comes recommended, sitting at the bar with Kurt is an exercise in classic hospitality. Warm, convivial and well versed in cocktails, the experience at the bar at Serratto is second to none when he is behind the bar.

WORCESTER, Mass. -- Ben Maxwell forced overtime then scored the game-winning goal to lift the St. John's IceCaps past the Worcester Sharks 5-4 in American Hockey League play Saturday.

Maxwell then scored just 23 seconds into overtime to help the lowly IceCaps win their fourth straight game.
Aaron Gagnon and Jason Gregoire also scored for St. John's, while Eddie Pasquale finished with 30 saves.
Bracken Kearns led Worcester (29-28-8) with two goals, while Jon Matsumoto and Peter Sivak also scored and Thomas Greiss stopped 22 shots.

Sam Narron, the Rangers' Moonlight Graham, retires
Sam Narron, the Texas Rangers' version of Archibald "Moonlight" Graham, has retired as a player to go into coaching.
Washington on Tuesday hired Narron to as pitching coach with its Auburn, N.Y., affiliate in the rookie-level New York-Penn League.
Narron, a lefthander, made one major-league appearance. He started for the Rangers against Oakland on July 30, 2004, and allowed four runs in 2 2/3 innings during a no-decision. Narron missed the 2005 season because of shoulder surgery and spent the last six years in Milwaukee's minor-league system.
Narron is the third member of his extended family to get into coaching. His second cousins, brothers Jerry and Johnny Narron, are on the staff of Milwaukee manager Ron Roenicke.
Moonlight Graham's major-league career consisted of one game with the New York Giants in 1905. He is a character in W.P. Kinsella's book "Shoeless Joe," The book is the basis for the movie "Field of Dreams."

Pat Bowlen is honored with the 2013 Community Enrichment Award from the Mizel Institute
The Colorado Statesman
Football, politics — they're both contact sports, right? So it was fitting that the May 22 dinner honoring Denver Broncos Coach Pat Bowlen with the Mizel Institute's 2013 Community Enrichment Award combined them both.
We'll start with the politics, since we are essentially a political newspaper.
The setting at the Wings Over the Rockies Air and Space Museum was as vast and as crowded as a jammed political convention hall during an election year — filled with some 2,100 guests, of which some 300, more or less, were elected officials. Others had ties to Colorado politics in one way or another, as well as ties around their necks which bore the Bronco orange trademark color. Attorney General Tom Horne may have come the farhest, all the way from Arizona.
Larry Mizel, right, warmly greets Denver Broncos owner Pat Bowlen, left, as the 2013 Mizel Institute's annual Community Enrichment Award recipient as Gov. John Hickenlooper, center, shares in the camaraderie on May 22. Bowlen is also chairman of the Denver Broncos Charities, which has donated more than $25 million to charitable organizations in the Denver area since 1993.
Elected state officials mixed with local legislators, lobbyists and consultants eyed current and potential candidates — it was prime political pickin'.
Denver Broncos owner Pat Bowlen, recipient of this year's Mizel Institute's Community Enrichment Award, with Denver Broncos lobbyist and former Rep. Bill Artist and Sharon Owings proudly pose for the camera at the May 22 event at Wings Over the Rockies Air and Space Museum.
And the timing of the event, coincidentally, was barely a couple hours after one of the most awaited political decisions of the year: Gov. John Hickenlooper's announcement whether he would grant convicted killer Nathan Dunlap a reprieve or allow the state to carry out the death penalty.
Denver Broncos Vice President of Operations John Elway, Steve Demby and Steve Farber from the law firm of Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck, and Denver real estate developer Jim Sullivan at this year's dinner.
With the political world buzzing about the Governor's decision to grant Dunlap a "temporary" reprieve while he remained in office, Hickenlooper had set off a flurry of debate, and it was only natural that it would spill over to the assembled crowd at this evening's event. Seems that just about everyone wanted to talk about it and everyone seemed to have an opinion.
Bob and Phyllis Hanfling chat with Denver Police Chief Robert White and his wife Valerie at the Mizel award dinner for Pat Bowlen.
And Hickenlooper, who seemed outwardly relieved and almost playful after his eventful day, added — unwittingly or not — to the politics of the moment by singling out and very publicly praising his chief of staff, rumored to have played a major role in convincing her boss to not fulfill the death penalty. In commenting about Roxanne White, Hickenlooper heaped on the praise, calling her the best chief of staff in "all of the United States of America."
"This one's for you, Pat" exclaims Larry Mizel to the recipient of the 2013 Mizel Institute's Community Enrichment Award.
Shifting easily from politics to sports, Hickenlooper explained that he jokingly refers to himself "on a good day" as the governor of the entire state of Colorado.
"Larry Mizel, center, stands with some of the Denver Broncos former super stars, all members of the NFL's Hall of Fame: Shannon Sharpe, left, John Elway, Gary Zimmerman, Floyd Little, Tom Jackson and Billy Thompson.
But on this special occasion, he told the guests, his staff was calling him the governor of "the entire Bronco nation."

It was a title Hickenlooper gladly accepted. Colorado, he said, "has arguably one of the most popular and fanatical sports teams in the history of sports. There is no more beloved franchise in the United States than the Denver Broncos and a good part of that is Pat Bowlen."
Hickenlooper talked about watching the Denver Broncos from the owner's box with Bowlen, who he called the "most charming and gracious host that ever lived." That is, until the game starts. At that point, Hickenlooper quipped light heartedly, don't bother to offer commentary or observations to the attentive coach: "You'll suffer the consequences."
Pat Bowlen, Hickenlooper said, makes Denver and Colorado better places in which to live.
Aside from his legacy with the football team, which he has owned since 1984, Bowlen serves as Chairman of the Board of Denver Broncos Charities, which has donated more than $25 million to charitable organizations in the Denver area since the inception of the fund in 1993.
Bowlen served as the Honorary Chairman of the Colorado Special Olympics for 19 years and as Honorary Chairman of the Stadium Stampede (formerly the Colorado Family Classic) benefiting St. Joseph's Hospital Foundation for 28 years.
Forgive us as we refer to Bowlen's official biography — we could never master this lengthy list of achievements without crib notes.
Other organizations benefiting from Bowlen's leadership and participation include the University of Denver, Capuchin Friars, University of Northern Colorado, Rose Medical Center, American Ireland Fund, Irish Community Center, Hawaii Maritime Center, Alberta Bar Association, Law Society of Alberta and the Young Presidents' Organization.
Bowlen was elected to the University of Denver Board of Trustees in 1987 and is currently a member of the DU Athletic Affairs Committee. Previously, he served on the Institutional Advancement Committee and the Institutional Advancement/University Relations subcommittee.
Under Bowlen's leadership, the Denver Broncos partner with and support numerous causes in Denver communities, including Bonfils Blood Center; Play 60, the NFL's campaign aimed at encouraging kids to be active for 60 minutes a day in order to reverse childhood obesity; the Inner City Health Center; HealthONE's Rocky Mountain Hospital for Children; Food Bank of the Rockies; the Denver Metropolitan chapter of Susan G. Komen for the Cure; the Denver Rescue Mission; the American Heart Association; Boys & Girls Club of Metro Denver; Habitat for Humanity of Metro Denver; The United Way; and Denver Public School Athletics.
"Previous honorees have been remarkable individuals—distinctive in their accomplishments — professionally, civically and philanthropically," said Mizel, founder of the Mizel Institute. "This year we pay tribute to a genuine leader in the sports industry and our community. Pat Bowlen has contributed substantially to enriching the lives of Coloradans along with football enthusiasts around the world. It is appropriate that we honor him for his profound and longstanding devotion to our community."
Proceeds from the $1,5 million raised at the dinner go towards operating expenses for the Mizel Museum and the Counterterrorism Education Learning Lab.

It's always convenient to blame a falling SP on a "Short Attack".
The entire Western Canadian Oil and Gas Industry has been under pressure.
Companies like PGF with large exposure to NG, High Debt, High POR (paying unearned dividends) and Deteriorating Fundamentals have been punished the most.
The Shorts didn't create PGFs problems! They recognised them!
Opportunity Knocks, Short Positions get put on and Gravity does the rest.
The SP of Companies like PGF that are under pressure normally fall until they reach a level somewhere below the NAV where support is found. I think that PGF is very close to that point.
Anybody that thinks that Squint1 or any other Stockhouse Poster can have any effect on the SP of a highly liquid stock like PGF/PGH is truly DELUSIONAL !!!!

We will be in Thailand next week and are looking at staying at Thung Wua Laem Beach at Chumphon for a couple of days before heading over to Koh Tao.
Can anyone recommend some good accommodation at Thung Wua Laem Beach. We are looking for Bungalow resorts if they exist.
Also does anyone know how easy is it is to get to Thung Wua Laem Beach from chumphon Train Station.
Thanks for any info...

OK ... you want an answer.
I don't know much, but I'm pretty sure I saw a sawngthaew when I was out there. To get to the road to the beach you would walk straight out from the station to the next big intersection - not far. Otherwise there's taxis. It's about 16km.
There's a few places out there. The beach looked nice but Lady Fondo got mercilessly attacked by sandflies.

I went to Hat Thung Wua Laen for a day but didn't stay overnight so can't name any bungalows. But I did stay on Sairee Beach (aka "Had Sai Ri") about 20km out of Chumphon town, at a place called Nong Mai Sai Resort (น้องใหม่ ทรายรีสอร์ท sorry no English sign but the local taxi/tuktuk guys all know where it is) See pic on my Flickr set here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/captain-bob/4408281765/in/set-72157621919706647 Click the next picture to see the bungalow - 900 baht for very clean nearly beachfront unit plus big restaurant with excellent seafood. The Lomprayah high-speed ferry pier is just a bit further down so it could be convenient for Ko Tao.

Thung Wua Laem Beach is great!!!!!!!!!
Not sure of the exact route from the train station, but you need to get to the market which is not that far from the train station, in fact I think you can walk it, and get the yellow songthaw (different colours go to different places - simple but effective (if you know it!)) If you need to give directions from the train station ask for the 'Yellow sangthaws'.
Once there, there are many bungalows cant remember the name of the one we stayed at but he bungalows are on the left and the beach is on the right!
When you want to leave, your resort will need to phone for the songthaw as they don't normally drive the beach road but bypass it by a few 100 yards.
No jet skis, no loud music, no girly bars, no beach umbrellas - a lot of locals at the weekend, a great place!

Have you ever shopped at high end retail stores and watched enviously as the sales associates effortlessly gift wrapped package after package into Christmas perfection? No? Ok, so maybe that was just me. But coming from a family where my father used to descend into the basement to wrap his presents, we can only assume that power tools were involved in the process, perfect packaging was a rarity. Now, as I grew up, I became like most of America, reasonably proficient at wrapping a squarish parcel without resorting to a vise grip and table saw. However, I will admit, any odd shaped packages still got shoved in a bag, or if they were too large, my mother's yuletide favorite, a laundry sack. Continue reading
The World's Most Expensive Christmas Tree
Christmas is just around the corner and cars all over America have been driving the highway heavily laden with Christmas trees. And my car was no different last weekend. Now when I say Christmas tree, I'm envisioning a fluffy fir tree trimmed with white lights and teal, green, and silver colored ornaments. Hey, so it's not the traditional red and green, but I like to be a little different. Now, let's pause for a moment on the words, a little, different. Because I found a tree that's been making headlines this week due to it being decidedly more than, 'a little' different. Now by different I don't mean that they've hung it upside down, or covered it in meat a la Lady Gaga… that would just be gross. This tree is different in the fact that it is made entirely, from its base to the star at its summit, out of pure gold. Continue reading
The 2014 Fantasy Bra is here!
The weather is turning colder and that can only mean one thing… that is, if you really like Victoria's Secret. So, essentially, this one's for the dudes, and ladies who like diamonds no matter where they're located. Anywho, the Victoria's Secret annual fashion show is just around the corner and every year we get a bit of a sneak peak which includes one chosen model and…
Remember that post on the diamond skull where I claimed that everything was better if it was encrusted with diamonds? Well, wrong again, but this time its diamond covered lingerie. That's right; the famed Victoria's Secret Fashion Show is approaching and with every VS show, comes the Fantasy Bra. (I feel that there should be appropriately dramatic music here, but since these blogs don't come with a soundtrack feature we shall press on.)
Since its inception in 1996, the Fantasy Bra has been making headlines. Worn by catwalk legends such as Heidi Klum, Tyra Banks, and Claudia Schiffer, the Fantasy Bra is every Angel's dream; a dream that comes true for very few models. Miranda Kerr, who wore the famed bra in 2011 said of the experience, "I have always wanted to wear the Fantasy Bra". "It's really special". It's true; there is something very special about these bras, very special, meaning very costly. With the first installment, the Million Dollar Miracle bra, which retailed for, you guessed it, $1 million, the sparkly undergarments were poised to make history. And four years later, Gisele Bundchen strutted down the catwalk wearing a record breaking Fantasy Bra and panties worth a staggering $15 million. This year's look is definitely worthy of it's spot in the coveted tradition and is poised to make a splash.
Nope, you're not seeing double. This year, in a surprising twist, Victoria's secret not only took the show out of it's traditional New York setting and moved it to oh-so-chic and cosmopolitan London, they've raised the stakes even higher by having not one, but two Fantasy Bras each valued at a royal sum of 2 million dollars and worn by two of Victoria's Secret's most famous bodies, Adriana Lima and Alessandra Ambrosio.
Which, considering that last year's offering, ironically dubbed 'The Royal' (forshadowing much?), topped out at 10 million dollars, is downright thrifty. Maybe they had to offset the cost of jetting a whole plane full of models across the pond? But, cost aside, let's take a closer look at these two dazzling creations which were "inspired by the magic of faraway lands", took skilled artisans over 1300 hours to complete and tip the scales at over 10,000 carats of diamonds and gemstones.
According to the Victoria's Secret website, Adriana Lima's blue bra and matching chain set include over 10,000 precious gems including amethysts, topaz, sapphires, agate, and diamonds hand set in 18k yellow gold. And when they say chain set they aren't kidding. Any guesses as to how many people it took to wrestle all of those bejeweled ropes, tassels, and fringes all over her body? It's not that the set isn't impressive, it is, but I can't help but feel that all of the hoopla is detracting from what is, in truth, a really pretty bra.
And don't even get me started on Alessandra's getup. While she has nearly half the gemstones at 5,833, including red garnets, sapphires, blue topaz, and diamonds,
sidebar: I really feel for the poor guy who has to count all of those
she has what appears to be twice the amount of random chains, arm swags, etc. flapping around. I'm honestly surprised they didn't strap a giant garnet to her head to complete the Arabian Nights motif.
I guess what i'm trying to say is, it's called the Fantasy BRA not the Fantasy body chain, swag, fiesta. Sometimes less is more and at least for this year, the designers should have taken a page out of Coco Chanel's book, looked in the mirror, and taken 82 pieces off before they left the house.
But the main question every year is not, is it a beautiful bra, because it is, but will it sell? Contrary to popular belief, the Fantasy Bra is not created as a showpiece. It is created to sell, and for quite a lot of money. However, only one has ever sold, and it was the very first, and very cheapest at a budget friendly $1 million. I think the reason is that there are so many things to spend millions of dollars on, and diamond studded bras just don't rank that high up on the list. On my list they would fall miles behind things like mansions, yachts, and the Elizabeth Taylor diamond ring.
However, with all of that being said, I'm sure it would make a nice addition to anyone's home décor. Because let's face it, you can't wear the thing. Besides it being ostentatious as all get out, it was made to fit a teeny, tiny supermodel. Although even if it did fit, I wouldn't wear it as a bra. I personally think that it has gone beyond underwear and has become embellished enough to be worn as a top. I say throw that baby, minus the chains, on and hit the clubs, with a couple of body guards of course!
Now I want to hear what you think! Is this year's duo of Fantasy Bras jaw-droppingly gorgeous, or a jaw-dropping waste of money? Would you buy one, and if so would you wear it? Catch the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show tonight!

A new way to pick your signature gemstone: birthstones need not apply!
Are you like many people out there and really dislike your birthstone? Well here's a fresh take on picking your signature stone. The fashion mavens over at JCK have come up with a comprehensive guide to gemstones matching their vibrant hues with your hair and eye color. We especially love the caveat at the bottom saying that diamonds are perfect for everyone. We could not agree more!
Engagement Photos… They've come a long way baby.
The term 'engagement photo' brings to mind a whole slew of things. Everything from your parents saying, "There was never any of this nonsense around when WE got engaged", or perhaps they're whipping out that old leatherette bound horror film filled to the brim with baby blue bell bottom tuxes and ruffled shirts. No? Just me then? Even in the past decade there has been a huge leap in engagement photography moving it beyond just being a passport photo that happens to have two people in it. So how do you get from a Sears style portrait session so uncomfortable that you end up having to sub in another friend as your fiance because the man in question CAN NOT SMILE without looking completely creepy, to a beautiful engagement photo that showcases your relationship with each other?
Surprising facts about getting engaged
These fun and sometimes surprising facts, compiled by BRIDES magazine, run the gamut from what month is the most popular time to put a ring on it, to whether or not that rock was a surprise or not. Wow that just got a bit Seussical on you there for a bit. Sorry about that. But onward to the trivia! I'm sure these will help you out the next time you're on jeapordy… or not, but at least we're having a good time right? Yep, thought so. Continue reading

A Golden Solution to the World's Energy Crisis
The world is in the grip of a tremendous energy crisis. From petrol to your cellphone, power is in short supply. Yet we can't seem to part with any of them. We can't live without our SUVs or our iPhones. But how far would we be willing to go for our fix? What would you give to keep leveling up in Candy Crush? We know that you'll spend hundreds, even thousands of dollars, but would you spend something a bit more personal? A bit more macabre? Israeli designer Naomi Kishner thinks we will. With her collection, aptly named Energy Addicts, Kishner probes the limits of our dependency on electricity.
Many say that they would rather give up their life than live without their smartphone or tablet. Well Kishner is ready to call you on that boast, in a big way. But she doesn't want your body… she wants your blood. Continue reading

It was 24 hours after his team's 31-6 victory over Iowa, but Purdue coach Joe Tiller's evaluation of the Boilermakers' performance hadn't changed.
He thought the offense played very well against the No. 3 defense in the Big Ten Conference. And, in his mind, the fact that Iowa's offense is last in the league didn't take away from the defensive performance.
Tiller had watched the offensive and special teams tape, and he had the defensive tape on his agenda for Sunday night. ...

A President, A Yacht, AndBy Matthew Algeo
A Secret Operation
Published: October/November 2011
This is the story of one of the most brazen and bizarre cover-ups in the annals of the American presidency. In his new, critically acclaimed book, The President Is a Sick Man, and here in an exclusive for BoatUS Magazine, national-award-winning political historian Matthew Algeo tells the full story of this extraordinary conspiracy.
On July 1, 1893, Grover Cleveland, the president of the United States, disappeared. He sailed into Long Island Sound on a friend's yacht and was not heard from again for four days. What happened on that yacht was so incredible that, when the truth was finally revealed, most Americans simply would not believe it — and an innocent man's reputation would be ruined.
The story begins about two months earlier, in early May. The nation was in the midst of a crippling recession that would come to be known as the Panic of 1893. A speculative bubble had burst: railroads. The railroads were hopelessly overbuilt, and by the end of the year some 119 of them would go bankrupt, bringing countless other businesses down with them. Unemployment skyrocketed. Stocks crashed. And all the while the nation was mired in a bitterly divisive debate over currency, namely whether the dollar should be backed by gold or silver.
On May 5, in the midst of this economic and political turmoil, Grover Cleveland noticed for the first time an unusual bump on the roof of his mouth. Given all he had on his plate at the time, it wasn't until the middle of the following month that he finally had the bump checked out. His personal physician, Joseph Bryant, diagnosed the growth as a cancerous tumor. "It is a bad looking tenant," Bryant told Cleveland. "Were it in my mouth I would have it removed at once."
But Cleveland feared the markets would collapse and public confidence in the economy would be shattered if it came to be known he had cancer, a disease so feared at the time that the word itself was avoided in polite company. He'd consent to the removal of the tumor only if the operation was kept secret, even from his vice president, Adlai Stevenson (grandfather of the future presidential candidate). Only the president's doctors, his family, and his closest friends would be privy to the truth.
