How we did this
The St. Cloud Times asked several Central Minnesota cities for compensation of public employees.
The St. Cloud Times requested data on base pay, overtime pay and other pay from several Central Minnesota cities: Albany, Avon, Clear Lake, Clearwater, Cold Spring, Foley, Rice, Richmond, Rockville, Sartell, Sauk Rapids, St. Augusta, St. Cloud, St. Joseph and Waite Park. Employees include full- and part-time employees and those who are permanent and temporary.
The list does not include fire department staff nor the costs of paying council members and others who attend meetings for cities.
Small cities in Central Minnesota spent more than $3.6 million paying 160 employees in 2012.
Those staffs served more than 21,000 residents in Albany, Avon, Clear Lake, Clearwater, Cold Spring, Foley, Rice, Richmond, Rockville and St. Augusta at a cost of about $170 per capita.
Salary data collected by the St. Cloud Times reflects each citys choices on how to serve residents public safety, water, sanitation and other needs.
Some of the salary costs reflect the identities some of those communities want to maintain, such as Foley as a place for families with its municipal pool and Richmond with its civic ice arena as a place for a first job.
Many of the numbers also reflect the lingering squeeze of the recession that has kept city budgets tight. Some city staffs have a small number of full-time staffers, requiring some employees to wear many hats on a day-to-day basis.
The St. Cloud Times requested data on total compensation for employees of these Central Minnesota cities: Albany, Avon, Clear Lake, Clearwater, Cold Spring, Foley, Rice, Richmond, Rockville, Sartell, Sauk Rapids, St. Augusta, St. Cloud, St. Joseph and Waite Park.
Employees include full- and part-time workers and those who are permanent and temporary; the data generally does not include part-time or volunteer firefighters or council pay.
In cities with populations of fewer than 5,000, money spent on salaries ranges from $90,000 in Clear Lake, which has a population of 545, to $910,000 in Cold Spring, which serves more than 4,000 residents.
Salary costs dont necessarily follow population. Rockvilles salary total is the second lowest while the city has about 1,000 more people than Avon, which pays the second-highest total to employees.
Options, choices
While small cities are often expected to provide the same array of services as large cities, leaders can choose methods that might not be reflected in the salary data. For example, the amount Rockville pays to the Stearns County Sheriffs Office for police coverage isnt reflected in salary costs, but the $200,000 Avon spends on police salaries is.
Rockville City Administrator Rena Weber said the city has had a policing contract with Stearns County for years. Agreeing on a contract saves city staff time in dealing with police expenses, but also gives them less control over staffing and other decisions.
The decision on how to deliver public safety swung the other way in Foley. Leaders there decided to re-establish the city police department last year instead of continuing a contract with Benton County.
City Administrator Sarah Brunn said city officials decided it was more cost-effective to start its own department. The decision also gave the City Council and staff more control of staffing and how patrol time was used.
The added department also adds to the duties of existing staff.
When you add more personnel that youre managing, there are time costs associated with that, Brunn said. There are more moving parts with the city.
Richmond has a joint-powers agreement for the Cold Spring-Richmond Police Department, one that was reviewed in 2012, City Administrator Martin Bode said. At that time, Bode said he did a budget analysis, looking at staffing, insurance, benefits and equipment costs of maintaining a department.
The City Council ultimately decided to continue with the joint-powers agreement, as its mutually beneficial for Cold Spring and Richmond, Bode said. The agreement also lets Richmond give some input on how the department is run and hiring decisions.
Theres also a difference reflected in salary numbers that is tied to amenities a city offers. Foleys municipal pool is one example. It hires 15-20 pool workers every summer, making Foleys total number of employees, 44, look much higher than other cities of similar size.
The temporary lifeguards, instructors and pool manager accounted for about $33,000 in salaries in 2012, which doesnt include maintenance or other work related to the pool done by other public employees.
In Richmond, the amenity it offers isnt a pool; its the River Lakes Civic Arena. A number of part-time employees in Richmond are paid to work at the arena.
I came from southern Minnesota, where every city had swimming pools, Bode said. I come up here and its ice arenas. Its a difference in culture.
What I like best about the ice arena is being able to provide first-time employment to young adults, he said.
In 2012, Richmonds seasonal arena employees made about $10,000 total, averaging a little more than $1,000 each.
Small city, many hats
Often the smallest cities only have a few people in the office to deal with everything cities need to provide, from zoning to water and more.
The learning curve can be steep for new staff members, but Brunn and others have benefited from on-the-job experience and other training. It requires everyone to be flexible, Brunn said, especially with the three employees, including herself, who work in the city office.
Its one of the advantages of a small-town staff, she said. The team environment makes my job much easier every day.
We wear many hats, Weber said of her staff in Rockville. On any given morning, she can be working on zoning, building permits, clerical work, bills and investments whatever comes up.
St. Augusta City Administrator Bill McCabe can be found doing anything from answering the phone to inputting water bills. Because St. Augusta is a relatively new city, he said leaders there want to maintain a competitive tax rate.
They wanted to remain competitive but not have huge increases, he said.
In Richmond, Bode also knows the pressure to be many things to many people. And since hes started in 2007, staff has fallen from six full-time employees to four.
The change made the need for employee efficiency even more apparent.
Having efficient employees makes everybodys jobs easier, he said.

Before the
Federal Communications Commission
Washington, D.C. 20554In the Matter of
Costco Wholesale Corporation/Costco #737
File Number: EB-09-LA-0003
Las Vegas, Nevada
NAL/Acct. No. 201032900002
NOTICE OF APPARENT LIABILITY FOR FORFEITUREReleased: December 22, 2009
By the District Director, Los Angeles Office, Western Region, Enforcement Bureau:
In this Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture ("NAL"), we find that Costco Wholesale
Corporation/Costco #737 ("Costco), in Las Vegas, Nevada, apparently willfully and repeatedly violated
Section 301 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended ("Act")1 by operating radio transmitters
without a license. We conclude, pursuant to Section 503(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended ("Act"),2 that Costco is apparently liable for a forfeiture in the amount of five thousand dollars
On May 6, 2009, in response to a complaint of unauthorized use on 154.540 MHz in Las
Vegas, Nevada, an agent from the Enforcement Bureau's Los Angeles Office, using radio direction finding
techniques, located transmissions on 154.540 MHz to a Costco store at 6555 N. Decatur Boulevard, Las
Vegas, Nevada ("Decatur Boulevard Location").
On May 7, 2009, the Los Angeles agent, again using radio direction finding techniques,
located transmissions on 154.540 MHz to the Costco store at the Decatur Boulevard Location. The Los
Angeles agent then spoke with the store manager at the Costco store. The manager was unaware of the
requirement to have an authorization to operate on this frequency and could produce no license to verify that
an authorization existed to operate on frequency 154.540 MHz. The manager stated that the
communications system was installed and put into operation by Costco maintenance staff. The manager
stated that Costco would immediately research the possibility of acquiring a license to operate on 154.540
MHz. Review of the Commission databases revealed that Costco Wholesale Corporation has an
authorization, WPWT411, to operate at another location in the Las Vegas area, however, its authorization
only included frequencies 468.4125, 461.3125, 468.8625, and 469.2875 MHz.
On May 15, 2009, the Los Angeles agent received e-mail notification from the manager
stating that Costco had applied for a license to operate the radio system.
2 47 U.S.C. § 503(b).
Federal Communications Commission5.
On June 8, 2009, Costco was granted an authorization, WQKI861, to operate from the
Decatur Boulevard Location on 461.650, 463.350, 466.650, 466.975, and 468.350 MHz.3 On June 23,
2009, Costco was granted a modification to WQKI861, which changed its authorized operating frequencies
to 151.520, 151.745, 159.525, 159.645, and 160.095 MHz.4
Section 503(b) of the Act provides that any person who willfully or repeatedly fails to
comply substantially with the terms and conditions of any license, or willfully or repeatedly fails to comply
with any of the provisions of the Act or of any rule, regulation, or order issued by the Commission
thereunder, shall be liable for a forfeiture penalty. The term "willful" as used in Section 503(b) has been
interpreted to mean simply that the acts or omissions are committed knowingly.5 The term "repeated" means
the commission or omission of such act more than once or for more than one day.6
Section 301 of the Act states that "[no] person shall use or operate any apparatus for the
transmission of energy or communications or signals by radio… except under and in accordance with this
Act and with a license in that behalf granted under the provisions of this Act."7 On May 6 and May 7,
2009, the Los Angeles agent located transmissions on 154.540 MHz to the Costco store at the Decatur
Boulevard Location. The store manager acknowledged to the agent that the store had no license authorizing
operations on 154.540 MHz. While Costco has a license to operate at another location in the Las Vegas
area, there is no evidence that its license authorized Costco to operate on 154.540 MHz from the Decatur
Boulevard Location. The violation occurred on more than one day, therefore, it was repeated. As the
holder of multiple FCC licenses, Costco was aware such operations required a license. Therefore, the
violation was willful. Based on the evidence before us, we find that Costco apparently willfully and
repeatedly violated Section 301 of the Act.
Pursuant to The Commission's Forfeiture Policy Statement and Amendment of Section 1.80
of the Rules to Incorporate the Forfeiture Guidelines, ("Forfeiture Policy Statement"), and Section 1.80 of
the Rules, the base forfeiture amount for operation without an instrument of authorization is $10,000.8 In
assessing the monetary forfeiture amount, we must also take into account the statutory factors set forth in
Section 503(b)(2)(E) of the Act, which include the nature, circumstances, extent, and gravity of the
violations, and with respect to the violator, the degree of culpability, and history of prior offenses, ability to
pay, and other such matters as justice may require.9 Applying the Forfeiture Policy Statement, Section 1.80,
and the statutory factors to the instant case, we conclude that Costco's operation is not analogous to a
"pirate" station operator, and, consequently, we downwardly adjust the proposed forfeiture amount to
3 File No. 0003853269, granted June 8, 2009.
4 File No. 0003870172, granted June 23, 2009.
5 Section 312(f)(1) of the Act, 47 U.S.C. § 312(f)(1), which applies to violations for which forfeitures are assessed
under Section 503(b) of the Act, provides that "[t]he term 'willful', when used with reference to the commission or
omission of any act, means the conscious and deliberate commission or omission of such act, irrespective of any
intent to violate any provision of this Act or any rule or regulation of the Commission authorized by this Act…."
See Southern California Broadcasting Co., 6 FCC Rcd 4387 (1991).
6 Section 312(f)(2) of the Act, 47 U.S.C. § 312(f)(2), which also applies to violations for which forfeitures are
assessed under Section 503(b) of the Act, provides that "[t]he term 'repeated', when used with reference to the
commission or omission of any act, means the commission or omission of such act more than once or, if such
commission or omission is continuous, for more than one day."

Electronic chequebook could assist internet transactions
A new electronic chequebook could enable people to pay bills over the internet but keep a physical record of transactions.
Researchers at Newcastle University who developed the technology claim it would allow electronic transfers for people who don't or can't use conventional internet banking and remove the cost to banks of processing paper cheques.
To make a payment, a user writes a cheque from the book with a digital pen that captures the transaction details and transmits them to the payee's bank account, leaving the user with a physical cheque they can use as they wish.
The researchers originally designed the technology to meet concerns of elderly people but realised it would have wider appeal, said Dr John Vines of Newcastle's Culture Lab.
'Sending a cheque in a Christmas or birthday card is something many people do — not just the older generation. It's easy and safe but it's also personal.
'The beauty of this system is that it is a safe and cheap electronic transaction for the banks but it's a physical paper-based transaction for the customer.'
Banks are phasing out cheques as more people use cheaper electronic transactions, with the number of cheques written each day in the UK down to 3.5 million from 11 million in 1990.
However, a study by Age UK last year revealed 73 per cent of people aged over 65 still frequently use cheques.
Project lead Prof Andrew Monk said: 'For the banks, it's not only the time and cost of processing cheques but, at present, where you store them after they have been processed.
'But for the bank's customers — and particularly the older generation — cheques are seen as a vital part of their financial independence. They provide a permanent record, which means they can easily keep track of what's being spent.'
The electronic chequebook is similar to conventional designs but features a grey background on each cheque made up of a pattern of billions of tiny dots.
A camera in the digital pen tracks its position on the paper in order to 'read' the cheque as it's written and then sends the information to the bank.
New user-friendly technology needs to be developed to help older people access modern banking methods, argue the researchers behind a new government-sponsored project. Click here to read more

Astonishing they have re-invented the digital pen!
Livescribe with Bluetooth or WIFI.
So what's the point? Write a check with a digital pen. The pen sends the info to the bank, which deducts it from your account and puts it into the recipient's account. You send the check to the person you wrote the check to. Why? The money has already been transferred. So what are they going to do with the check? Frame it? Shred it? No thank you! I will stay with the good old-fashioned regular paper check and a pen with ink in it!

Isn't this an Automat series camera?
Automats don't have a start mark. There's a small silver roller near to the bottom film compartment. The film leader goes UNDER that bar then over the film gate and on to the takeup spool.
Turn the film advance lever about a half a turn to be sure that the film is taking up smoothly as it should then close the back and lock it.
That little roller you put the film under will detect the presence of the film as you roll the advance lever. Film counting will start automatically.
The whole mechanism resets itself when you open the camera back again to replace the film.

It's quite a hike from where they close the road to the lake - about 7 miles and quite a hike in elevation. Best time to visit the area is in June in the early morning or late afternoon - good chance of seeing grizzly and black bears on the road as well as hoary marmots. During the day the place is over run by tourists.

Yesterday i went in for my normal check up and baby A was doing great! Then we found out baby B was much smaller and not receiving blood properly. So yesterday my doctor sat me down and told me there was a good chance baby b wasn't going to survive to be 24 Weeks, i cried and threw up and cried more..my husband and i were transported to another hospital, where they said today i would get a laser surgery to close off baby b's umbilical cord to save baby a's life.
I couldn't believe how this could be happening! this morning we got 2 hours of ultrasounds and it was confirmed that she's sick and not getting proper blood flow. They told us she won't die though but our baby girls will be born in a few Weeks or hopefully a little longer if she's doing okay. As of right now I'm on strict bed rest and baby aspirin every day to hopefully improve blood flow
23 Weeks almost lost our baby girl :( Update on pg. 23!!

Sorry for the long pause between updates..our little chia-pom chewed my computer cord while in the move from hospital to hospital..finally got a new one!! Today I had an ultrasound and the usual monitoring all day, monitoring is getting very very hard for some reason!! It's been taking literal hours and hours to just find them let alone record them! The ultrasound actually showed improvement in Brianna's blood flow and she's doing an amazing job in my belly :) They kick me all day and let me know they're doing just fine. Brianna is gaining more weight every day and the last time we got their weight Adrianna was 2lbs and Brianna went from 15 oz to 1lb 6oz in a week so she's a lot bigger now! I've since connected with many momo mommies and met so many beautiful people through this whole pregnancy so far! 8 more weeks and we make it to our goal of 34 weeks to my c-section. My doctors and nurses were cheering when the results came in for Brianna, everyone is very anxious and happy to finally meet these beautiful babies! <3

Thank you so much! For those praying I thought you'd like to hear a few things we never expected would impact our pregnancy. After losing our first little one last year in march we couldn't do anything but go to church and pray that god bless us with another child..8 months later we found out we were expecting again and we were very shy but my husband and I spoke to our pastor and asked him for his prayers towards our future family. A few weeks later we found out we were having triplets!!! (we have no other multiples in our famies) We didn't even think prayer had anything to do with it until now looking back...all the prayers and look how far we've gotten in our high risk pregnancy..god is good and we pray he look after you all who have been here by our side to comfort us in our long journey to have a family

I did this: Turned off the "Search Engine Visibility" as it's a test site. The plugin correctly displayed a warning at the top of the screen. When I clicked on the link "go to your Privacy settings" in the warning message...
I expected the plugin to do this: Navigate to options-reading.php which is where that tick box is now found.
Instead it did this: Tried to navigate to options-privacy.php which caused a 404 error.
Have checked the dev version this morning and this link is still there, it is in function blog_public_warning.
Have checked the last couple of pages of issues to see if anyone else already raised this.

Insult to Injury
So i picked up a nice set of Nitto 305 50 20's on Sunday to put on the R/T and get put on at Kal Tire in the city today. Then about 3 pm get a call from them saying they cant install them cause they are too wide. They fit on the back but they wont go on the front because there was clearance issues with the sway bar. They said i need wheel spacers or different rims for f sake. Something about 0degrees offset or something rather . man i was so looking forward to see those tires on the truck. So im driving home from work which is a 200 km round trip for me when all of a sudden the little yellow tire light comes on ,great get out and find i blew the back tire. Good thing i was only 1 mile from home on the grid road when it happend. so the factory wranglers lasted 41000 kms on rear and my fronts look to have about 40 % left. im not sure which route to go because i love these Nitto tires and want them on dang it . I need a tire expert stat lol.:4-dontknow:
Very strange that they fit the rim but not the truck? Why not just get spacers, seems like the best alternative. But hopefully someone can give you a reasonable reason why they don't fit
I say just grab some wheel spacers!
Spacers should fix you up if you don't need to move them out too much. Otherwise, it's a different wheel that's needed for them to fit and not rub.
If it's just a little rub on the sway bar at full steering lock, then don't worry about it.
Its probably rubbing the upper control arm. I had the same issue and put 1/4 inch shims and that solved the problem! Ask them how much they dont fit by and if they say they barely rub the go with 1/4 inch shims! GL and keep us updated!
Tires are on
Put the truck up on floor jack to see how much clearance i had with the original tires. I have about 3/4 " between upper control arm and sidewall of tire. So i picked up two spacers that are 5/16 thick and installed them and i have about the same clearance now with the Nittos now.The only thing i didnt like about using the spacers is that it brought out the wheel a little further on the hub but its still on it lol. Holy crap those new tires really hook up better than the factory ones. Less wheel spin now and it really launchs the truck now. it feels alot quicker now maybe because they are about an inch less in diameter.
Which Nittos did you get?
Nitto 420 S .305/50R 20
yeah ramitup the wang. HP sux bad for anything other then grandpa driving
Yep about the only good thing about them is that they filled the wheel wells!

Sowerby, why is there no Autumn catalogue? If this is the case going forward, will they rename the Spring catalogue to just the Catalogue?!

Sad to say the Autumn catalogue was stopped a few years back. My last one was Autumn 2006, there may have been one in 2007 but none since then. Think the reason was that not many new boxes were being put out, but you will have to contact Sylvia for more info on this. of course it was also the time that Tony was nearing the end of his battle which he lost a couple of years ago. Lovely man.

The reasons why the catalogue became an annual publication is as Mo said, the drop in number of boxes, and to keep publishing costs down. Before the five year limit was imposed on registered boxes, the profit margin was literally a few pennies.
Sales dropped as a lot of the original crowd of boxers were calling it a day, getting too old to venture too far, or deciding that the moors were becoming swamped with too many commercially available stamps.
To be honest, it doesn't bother me all that much.

Post subject: Re register
Just coming back into boxing after a few years out and noticed in this trail that boxes have to be registered after 5 years. Does this include Travelling boxes and I clearly will need to reregister my traveller before my first visit down to the moor in January. Oh and if it does what info is required and where do I send it.

Hi there, welcome to the forum. To answer your question please see below
Note from the 2012 Spring catalogue -
The re-registering of boxes after 5 years has ceased. With the amount of boxes being entered into the catalogue and deleted from it, it has become self governing and keeps to a fairly constant number of live boxes.
There is therefore no need to re-register your traveller.

Thanks for info.
Traveller "The Newbury Fruits" will be returning to the moor very shortly.
1st trip will be a stay over at the Plume bunkhouse 31.1.14 to 2.2.14 and out and about in the princetown area maybe we will bump into a few of you hardy souls.
Looking forward to get back onto the moor used to be there a lot but not visited for a few years need to add to my 2000 odd boxes and good think I guess is less likely to find duplicates now for a bit as many new boxes will have appeared.

For your subject matter I would have thought of other cameras, one being a Leica M model and maybe the other being anything in a smaller/lighter body. I have noticed over the years that large black cameras and lenses draw a lot of attention. If I walk around with anything that looks to professional, especially if it has a honking big lens on it, everyone sees me. If I walk around with an old small camera hanging around my neck no less, that does not look very new, most people ignore me. I think for documentary people photography, the best bet is to know your light and be prepared to shoot without having to rely on a do it all electronic camera that gives you too many possibilities, or more to the point, too many options to screw up. Let's say for an example that you've got the camera set to program where it chooses the shutter speed and aperture. In many instances I wanted a different aperture or shutter speed. In situations where time is of the essence, looking into a viewfinder reading small diodes and thumb turning a wheel, (which one, on the front or back? and which way?), takes my attention away. But knowing my light and walking into the scene, or watching the scene evolve, with the focus mostly preset on a manual camera allows me total attention involvement. All I have to do is raise the camera at the right time, maybe make a small adjustment in focus and snap. Now, if your using a long long lens to practically stalk people it's another deal. But you might want to take a lesson from the masters of the past, they choose small quiet cameras for a reason and they learned how to operate the camera without the camera operating them. Knowing your light is the other important point.
This is absolutely correct!

what is the difference between the earnings from banners and popunders?? which one is more profitable?
I assume pop-unders usually produce a higher income, but are also more annoying to visitors and is likely to drive them away.
Signed up under you, expect a hell of a lot in referral commissions if I keep them
- You will earn 5% of your referred members' revenues for 6 months.
- Your referred members will earn 80% of the revenue share (instead of 60%).
That's 85% right off the top that Smowtion gives away. I find it hard to believe.
Anyway, has anyone been paid yet? I STILL cannot find ANY payment proof anywhere online.
Also, there will be maintenance to Smowtion on September 30, from midnight to 3am GMT-3.

You misunderstood. If they're paying me 80% and you 5% for referring me, that's 85% right off the top that they're giving away.No, that's 80% + 5% of what your referrals earn for 6 months. It's not 85%.
now it may look a difference of 1cent..but when there are millions of clicks and impressions then it surely makes a difference..
Last edited by rome9t9; 27 September, 2009 at 07:43 AM.
Okay, so let's say $1.00 comes in for you - that's $0.80 cents that you get.
If your referral gets $1.00 - They get $0.80, and you get 5%.
Either way, do you realize that for every dollar, Smowtion is getting $0.84 in a situation like that?
I highly doubt they'll be okay with that. I bet you that they'll get greedy. And since they're in South America there is nothing we can do.
Seems suspicious to me.

The storms of life, it is not a question about if they will come but when they will come. Let us spend a few moments together contemplating this matter.
Matt 14:22 to 24: Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowd. After he had dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone, but the boat was already a considerable distance from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it.
First things first, I know that Kleenex is a brand name, but that is usually what I call those little tissues we use for blowing our noses around my house. In fact we rarely actually use Kleenex, probably because I am just too cheap to pay for the brand name!
To continue with this topic presented first in last week's column, let's start by stating: No Two Children Are Alike! So, don't expect that what works for one will necessarily work for all. Those of you who were raised as one of two or several children, know this. If your parent(s) are still living, ask them to respond to that statement.
Dear Savvy Senior,
Is life insurance needed in retirement? I'm about to retire and have been thinking about dropping my policy to escape the premiums. Is this a good idea?
Over Insured
Dear Over,
While many retirees choose to stop paying their life insurance premiums when they no longer have young families to take care of, there are a few reasons you may still want to keep your policy. Here are some different points to consider that can help you determine if you still need life insurance in retirement.
Agriculture Commissioner James Comer encourages Kentucky State Fair visitors to drop by the Kentucky Proud Experience tent to enjoy and purchase fresh local foods and beverages. The tent is located on the West Lawn at the Kentucky Exposition Center.
"People today want to know their farmer, where their food comes from, and to buy and drink locally," Commissioner Comer said. "What better place to showcase the best our state has to offer than at the Kentucky State Fair?"
I have long understood that purslane could be used in salads or soups but never made much of an effort to harvest it until a few years ago. So, when high summer approaches I am now on the hunt for purslane, considered a noxious weed by most! I am not the only one who regards purslane with some culinary virtue. A fellow Farm Market farmer at the Belknap Farmers Market gave me a taste of his homemade salsa he was snaking on last week, commenting, is the best way to use purslane' and I was so excited to hear someone else get excited about this so-called weed.

Women's Ministry to host "Seeking God"

These cool mornings and hot humid evenings have led to some foggy mornings lately. I sort of enjoy the sense of quiet and isolation the fog brings when I walk the dog in the morning. But out on the road it can be a different story.
Dear Savvy Senior,
What kinds of reacher grabber tools can you recommend for seniors who need help picking things up off the ground. I bought a cheap one at Walmart a few months ago that doesn't work very well for me, and would like to find one that does.
Need a Hand
Although much of today's column relates to principles taught by psychologists Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend, who captured the theme of boundaries with their book "Boundaries," published in 1992. The first book was followed by "Boundaries with Kids," which I have used, although I will include examples of some of the families who came to me for counseling, especially when one or more of their children appeared to not have had sufficient boundaries established in their lives, and the problems that had now developed.
You know all the jokes about people having bumper crops of summer squash? Squash shows up in people's cars or in public spaces because there is so much that the gardener can't even give it away. Well, that's never really been a problem for me. I have a little bit of that problem this year and I give credit to the variety and the fact that it was plated later than usual. Others, however, have not been so blessed.
Recent news reports of unsafe drinking water in the Great Lakes area has drawn national attention to toxic algal blooms. In Kentucky, cyanobacteria, also known as blue-green algae, recently were found in Green River Lake, Taylorsville Lake, Barren River Lake, Nolin Reservoir and Rough River Lake at levels that prompted a recreational advisory.
These hush puppies are the perfect side dish for baked, broiled or fried fish, or it makes a wonderful appetizer when served with a spicy dipping sauce. You can keep the fried hush puppies warm in a 225 F oven for up to 15 minutes.

Ticketmaster integrates iTunes album sales
updated 07:20 am EST, Thu November 8, 2007
Ticketmaster and iTunes
Ticketmaster and the iTunes Store have expanded their music + tickets offerings by integrating digital album sales directly alongside concert tickets in a single transaction on Ticketmaster.com. Ticketmaster said that more than 700 musical acts with performances currently on sale via Ticketmaster, including Kanye West, Keith Urban, Modest Mouse and Bon Jovi, are among the first to have their songs and tickets jointly available to fans who search for music and concerts online. Both Apple and Ticketmaster have also launched a special dollar-off discount, which will be applied to every digital album sold on Ticketmaster and fulfilled via the iTunes Store through December 29, 2007.
Customers purchasing tickets at Ticketmaster.com to live performances by participating artists will be given the option of adding a digital album to their purchase for one dollar off the album's price through the end of the year. Ticketmaster.com will provide a direct link that will take the user to the iTunes Store to download their album in full.
"This Ticketmaster + iTunes program instantly gives our music huge exposure to a very important consumer audience -- the people who come to our shows," said Kanye West. "Touring is the most powerful and sincere connection that we have with our fans, so being able to deliver our music for download during the ticket buying process is a slam-dunk for us, and for all recording and touring artists out there who depend on reaching their live audience."
Ticketmaster and iTunes are also offering special Ticketmaster + iTunes gift card packs now available exclusively at more than 1,500 Target stores throughout the US. The dual card packages include two $25 gift cards: one redeemable toward tickets at Ticketmaster.com and one redeemable for digital music at the iTunes Store. The cards have no expiration date and multiple gift cards may be redeemed toward a single purchase.
"The ability to connect live and recorded music, concert tickets and album sales is the future of the music business," explained David Marcus, SVP Music, Ticketmaster. "The collaboration between Ticketmaster and iTunes makes it simple for fans to download the latest music from the artists they want to see live. We've now extended the music + concert tickets program we introduced with iTunes earlier this year, and we're thrilled to now offer digital albums integrated with concert ticket sales."
In September 2005, iTunes and Ticketmaster conducted the first-ever digital music / concert ticket online presale for Depeche Mode. Together, both have gone on to conduct online album + ticket presales for more than a dozen acts including the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Bob Dylan, Bon Jovi and more. In February 2007, Ticketmaster and iTunes offered summer concert ticket buyers a complimentary song of their choice and a digital sampler featuring a selection of music from touring artists.

|Kristopher Turner
September 27, 1980
Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
|Years active
Kristopher Turner (born September 27, 1980) is a Canadian actor. He is noted for his role as Jamie Andrews on the CTV teen drama Instant Star.
Turner was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. He is an only child. Kristopher discovered he had a love for the stage very early in life; landing a small role in his high school's production of A Midsummer's Night Dream. He received a degree in theatre from the University of Winnipeg, where he was very active in a number of productions. It wasn't long before Kristopher landed a role in a children's series called 2030CE. Not long afterwards he was cast in the lead role of Lex in director David DeCoteau's film The Brotherhood III: Young Demons (2002) (V). Following Kristopher's success in that film, he was able to score another leading role, this time as Gus in the MTV Movie production, Everybody's Doing It (2002) (TV). Following this success, Kristopher decided to return to the theatre, promptly landing a lead role in a local Winnipeg theatrical production of Athol Fugard's Master Harold...and the boys.

London, Milan and Paris have something that New York lucks. There seems to be a lot more of individuality and style in Europe. New York is great for shopping and entertainment and unless you are in the creative/artistic circles you don't get the same feeling there.

Fashion blasphemy but I have no interest in visiting Paris, and little opinion of Milan. If ever I make it to NY it'll be to take in a Yankees game.. okay, can't lie there WILL be shopping but it wouldn't be the focus of the visit. I'd love to go to London.

i live in New York and I've been to Paris. I'm trying really hard to save up money and move there in the next two years, it was that awesome. I spent a semester in Rome but didn't have a chance to go to Milan, but Italy is awesome in general in terms of fashion.

London was my favorite by far. Paris and Milan (have to watch out for pickpocketers there) were great as well. Unfortunately I don't think I got to spend enough time in New York! I'll come back again soon I hope.

paris, london and nyc. i loved all three, but found paris to be the most lovely and romantic, london to be the cultural (arts, theater) best and nyc the most frantic and action packed (in a good way)working on italy.

I've been to all four - and loved them all for each of their distinctive characteristics.Right now I'm loving NYC. It all depends on what my personal fashion vibe is at the moment.

NY is my home, London is my second home (I've lived there a few times, and try to go once a year, twice if I'm lucky.) Paris is gorgeous, and I love visiting. Ironically, I've been all over Europe but not to Italy where I actually have loads of family. Perhaps I seek out more "exotic" locales rather than a culture I am so familiar with? We're thinking of planning a summer in Italy soon as we have been offered an apartment for a month, then I will be sure to visit ALL over, including Milan!

I have been to all but Milan - although while in Italy I DID hit up some other amazing cities (Florence, Tuscany, Rome, Pisa, etc..). My fave so far is Paris by a landslide! I would love to live there and visit many more times.

Tons of New Kelvin Info! (Including crew pics)

Re: Tons of New Kelvin Info! (Including crew pics)

This is exciting indeed! Earlier, this site hosted art that wasn't quite representative of the real thing. Perhaps an early study? But most of the "flatness" here seems like image distortion to me. And the current artwork still doesn't satisfy me as representing the real thing -
the pop-up turrets are still shown in the wrong places,
not extending to the area immediately forward of the "U.S.S. Kelvin" pennant as the trailer shows.
And the text adjoining the pics appears rather hastily and inexpertly thrown together.
Nevertheless, the first pics of the bridge crew are worth the effort of going through that silly interface.
Timo Saloniemi
I disagree, it just seems like it explains enough of the technical aspects to make it interesting, but without over technobabbling it. Pretty much seems like info from memory-alpha or something in condensed form. Watch the trailer again, the Phasers are in the correct locations.
Oh and I love the crew, can't wait to see em on the big screen.

Defending Mrs. BushDecember 13,2012
Defending Mrs. Bush
I was disappointed in your recent article about a personnel matter at Union Elementary School. What happened to innocent until proven guilty? Mrs. Bush has been teaching at Union School for many years. My child was in her class during the same year as one of the parents quoted in your article. I volunteered in the class frequently and did not find it chaotic. Nor did I find Mrs. Bush, a disaster. If you are going to print such comments, you should at least ask around to see if other parents might have a different view. I am not trying to belittle the parents concerns. Certainly, they should be addressed. Like all of us, Mrs. Bush is not perfect. But a teachers job is a hard one. And your article did a great disservice to someone who has worked hard and cared deeply for our kids.

I know why I do it. I can take the time to get to know someone without leaving my house, prepping my hair, or worrying about what designer label shirt I am wearing.
But really, that excuse is just silly. I want to impress the woman that I am taking out to dinner (and actually go to dinner) with my charm, my taste in clothing, and my wit. And by God, I am social enough to get off of my fat and lazy ass to go out somewhere and actually take the time to do it!
I like to see my date laugh, watch her smile and to let her know I am right there with her when she cracks a joke or tells me what the meaning of life is to her. I want to fall in love face-to-face. Maybe I am a romantic at heart, or maybe I am an asshole by nature, but I really don't care what a complete stranger thinks of me after 'meeting' me online. If she thinks I am sexy, or if she thinks I am the biggest dork this side of Texas --No offense Texas, and you should celebrate your dorkiness-- that is entirely her prerogative.
Sure, I have a lot of self-improvements that I would like to hide from my date, hell from everybody, but don't we all. I don't wake up with the freshest breath because I smoke, and I am sure that I scratch my butt in public after you put a few drinks in me, and I tell awful jokes that make absolutely no sense at all. But that is what makes me, me. I would like to keep all of those things in a file marked top-secret, but if I did you would never see my smile or the way I lean into your conversation as you tell me something sexy, witty, smart, or just silly.
Don't get me wrong, I love OkCupid, and the people I meet on here, but there comes a time where you just want to stare into your dates eyes and just get lost.
Sometimes I can get caught up in the moment and ramble on for days about nothing-- trust me it even gets boring to me-- when I am conversing through emails. Then I remind myself that I am not looking for new pen pals to talk with, that is what my facebook friends are for, I am on here actually looking for someone who really gives a shit.

Special Guidance
"I will lead the blind by a way they do not know, In paths they do not know I will guide them. I will make darkness into light before them And rugged places into plains. These are the things I will do, And I will not leave them undone." - Isaiah 42:16
Jimmy Parrish was among my boyhood pastors. He has a son—Jimmy Jr.—who was totally blind. We were exactly the same age, so it became my honor to lead Jimmy Jr. around the church and school. Jimmy Jr. had a radiance about him. When I think of God's promise to lead the spiritually blind, I remember my own desire to guide Jimmy Jr. I wanted to steer him away from traps and threats. If I, as a not-so-godly teen wanted to lead Jimmy Jr. with care, how much more God will guide us, who cannot yet see all the wonders of His Kingdom and its truth.

Adding to the confusion surrounding the rumors of an iPhone "nano," images have surfaced that suggest the unconfirmed devices have already been replicated by knockoff manufacturers, according to AppleInsider. The fakes are built with a smaller form-factor than the iPhone 3G and even include Apple logos on the back panel. When the devices are turned on, the menu layout is similar to the genuine interface and several icons have been directly copied.
Southern California-based Visual Land's V-Touch VL-875 multimedia player is being sold on Boxing day, Friday, at Future Shop, a major Canadian electronics chain store owned by Best Buy. The 8GB gadget, which bears a striking resemblance to Apple's iPhone and iPod touch, sports a 2.8-inch, 240x320 resolution resistive touchscreen and is part of Visual Land's VL-805-series of personal multimedia players, which are differentiated by their onboard memory capacities, ranging from 1GB through to the current 8GB example.
Portable GPS, Internet media tablet and personal electronics maker Archos recently announced it will unveil a surprise new product at the CES show on January 10th in addition to the Archos 7 Internet media tablet already on sale. At the press conference, Archos CEO Ron Ferguson and director of marketing and business development Frederic Balay will make the presentation at the MGM Hotel Towers in Las Vegas.
Amid reports that the iPod touch was one of the best-selling holiday gadgets, website visitor data also indicates that the new owners more than quadrupled its browser share on Christmas, according to Silicon Alley Insider. Two percent of the readers navigated to the news site from the iPod's Safari browser, an increase of 456 percent year-over-year and 525 percent when comparing the average from December 1st through the 24th. The Touch and iPhone achieved a combined share of over 5 percent, up 90 percent from last year.
TEAC Japan has recently introduced a 2.1-channel home stereo system, the TD-X300i, which includes an iPod dock and CD drive, as well as built-in AM/FM radio tuner with 10 station presets. The system will play back MP3-encoded CD-Rs and CD-RWs via its flat-panel, NXT speakers. The subwoofer has a 4-inch diameter and is rated at 15W, while each speaker is rated at 5W of power.
Apple, Google and Microsoft have all been targeted in a lawsuit related to software technology, reports say. The three have been accused by Cygnus System of violating US patent 7,346,850, System and method for iconic software environment management. In depth, the patent describes "a method and system for storing, navigating, and accessing files within an operating system through the use of a graphical thumbnail representing the video display of the active document within the active application."
Internet and cable TV provider Comcast is being sued by its customer, Cheryl Corralejo, for requiring its customer to pay rental fees for its set-top and CableCARD boxes in order to view premium content and not giving them the option of buying them outright. The class-action lawsuit was filed at the end of November at the US District Court for the Eastern District of California and alleges Comcast's practice violates the Sherman Anti-Trust Act as well as business and professional codes.
A couple of online computer stores are offering two versions of AMD's upcoming Phenom II CPUs, ahead of their official debut planned for CES in January. According to the web stores' listings, the two new quad-core CPUs will begin shipping on December 27th. AMD's Phenom II X4 940 quad-core, rated at a 3GHz clock speed, is being offered for $304 by Computers4Sure and $373 CAD ($305) by A-Power. The second chip, the 2.8GHz Phenom II X4 920, is priced at $271 by Computers4Sure and $317 CAD ($259) by A-Power.
Battery and associated peripherals maker Energizer recently announced it will introduce a portable and solar-powered AA and AAA battery charger at CES at the start of January. The charger will also include a USB output to charge cellphones and other personal electronics, and users will have the option of plugging it into a conventional AC wall plug when indoors and away from windows or on dark, cloudy days.
More leaks surfacing today regarding the Dell Adamo have hinted at the initial notebook's early features and at a lower than expected price. A Google cache of information on Dell's own site indicates that the purported MacBook Air competitor will use DisplayPort for video out and eSATA storage and will have a number of peripherals ready on or near launch, including a 2X Blu-ray combo drive as well as 8GB, 250GB and 500GB external drives made to match the notebook in question.
Two Apple-related products performed extremely well at Amazon during the holiday season, the latter company has announced. Tracking orders from November 15th through to December 19th, the online retailer notes that one of the bestselling electronics items was the second-generation iPod touch, specifically in its 8GB capacity rather than 16 or 32GB. Apple's chief competition was split between a 52-inch red Samsung TV, and Acer's Aspire One netbook.
RIM on Christmas published a patent filing that hints at an attempt to overcome some of the size limitations of the BlackBerry Pearl and Pearl Flip. Describing the design as an "appearance adaptable" keypad, the method would have the appearance of a normal BlackBerry number pad but contain hinged sections that fold out past the normal dimensions of the phone to provide a larger SureType keyboard with two letters each.
Apple may be looking to implement swipe gestures into the iPhone and iPod touch's virtual keyboard, a newly-published patent application hints. Submitted to the the US Patent and Trademark Office, the patent -- simply titled Swipe Gestures for Touch Screen Keyboards -- describes a means of substituting swipes for commands that would normally require extra tapping. Users of handhelds could, for instance, swipe left with two fingers to backspace, or swipe down to enter a new line.
NVIDIA is urging notebook manufacturers to buy into a new generation of graphics hardware to avoid a chronic failure problem with the earlier hardware's material, a memo obtained by VR-Zone reveals. The graphics company reportedly "strongly recommends" that partners making certain GeForce 8700M, 8800M and 9650M video chipsets switch to a revision with a Hitachi underfill, or contact bump material, as soon as possible. The new substance provides "improved thermal cycling," according to NVIDIA, and should improve reliability as well as prevent a glut of orders for replacement chips.
Walmart has confirmed long-standing rumors, and will soon begin selling the iPhone 3G, according to an announcement. As expected, the phone will become available on December 28th from the low-end retailer, and sell in an 8GB model for $197 or a 16GB version for $297 -- in each case, just $2 less than the prices offered by Apple, AT&T and Best Buy. Shoppers will still require a two-year contract through AT&T.
Nintendo on Christmas Day said it would start offering videos for the Wii, marking the first time the device will have readily available programming. The deal will see ad firm Dentsu help produce new videos that will be available solely online. Adding videos will turn the Wii into a "fun area for communication" between family members, Nintendo says in its official statement regarding the plan.
On older MacBook Pros, at least, some of the recent crashes triggered by the Mac OS X 10.5.6 update may be related to outdated firmware, experimentation suggests. A Pro owner who has managed to fix problems with v10.5.6 notes that he was never alerted to the existence of a newer firmware update from April. After installing the update, the owner claims that his Pro is functioning fine under v10.5.6.
Creative today launched a teaser for an unusual product known as Zii. The company posts very little but suggests that the device revolves around the concept of "stemcell computing," suggesting that it may involve distributed computing or a parallel to the hardware or software of the Nintendo Wii. Aside from this, the firm only makes the claim that "everything you know is about to change" and provides no clues outside of four-leaf clover graphics.
An Intel spokesman now denies statements made that suggest the company is blocking NVIDIA's Ion for use with Intel Atom processors. Company official Bill Calder insists to InternetNews that there is "nothing" stopping system creators from buying Atom chips alone and thus that they can combine the processor with the faster, GeForce 9400M-level hardware or any other mainboard chipset.
People looking for an iPhone in France can now buy one without having to go through the country's official carrier, Orange, a local retailer has announced. FNAC is now selling a contract-free version of the iPhone 3G, though at a significant markup. An 8GB version of the phone is priced at �799 ($1,123), while black or white 16B models are selling for �899 ($1,263). By contrast, similar options in Belgium are priced at only �529 and �619.
HP is developing its first mid-size Voodoo PC-branded notebook since the reinvention of the label earlier in the year, a slip from within the PC builder claims. The system would be HP's first known high-end portable to carry a 15.6-inch, 16:9 aspect ratio display and will use an LED backlight that should both slim down the display and improve battery life. The system is reportedly due to ship during the summer and so is a candidate for Intel's mobile Core i7 processors.
An initial 2009 roadmap for phones at Canadian provider Rogers and its sub-label Fido has leaked and provided clues not only to devices coming to the West for the first time but a new BlackBerry device. A new Pearl Flip will represent a quick turnaround for RIM and will add HSPA-based 3G for faster Internet access; it will also be the first non-QWERTY phone from the company to have both GPS and Wi-Fi at the same time. The new Flip is due sometime in the first half of 2009 and will be available only through Rogers.

parties to campaign however they liked, with whatever policy positions they liked. They could focus on the party or issues or individual candidates, depending on whatever would work with voters in a given election. Clearly, this was not the only available alternative. The Republican National Committee under Ronald Reagan proved, after all, that party organizations can be partisan, ideological, and successful at the same time. But it was an easy alternative for Democrats weary of interminable factional battles and frightened by the growing affluence of their partisan opponents to embrace.
At the core of the Accommodationist paradigm's analysis and prescription, however, is a kind of agnosticism about the value of party as a mediating institution in electoral politics, perhaps driven by the growing indifference of voters toward parties in the 1970s and 1980s. Traditional advocates of strong parties might be troubled by the Democratic headquarters's move to embrace such campaign-centered politics, though most contemporary observers described the program itself as Manatt, Kirk, and Brown's great success.
