We promote many activities for the enjoyment of all of our members and their families.
PAAC regularly schedules various events such as mini car shows, parades, monthly tours, monthly cruise-ins, swap meets and other related events. We present one of Northern Arizona's best yearly shows, The Watson Lake Show, in early August.
The 2015 Watson Lake Show Flyer is now available. You can find it in the menu above, or

The 2014 Watson Lake Show was our 40th annual show! By all measures it was a great show. Thanks to our participants we had a large turn out. Lots of smiles. Happy show car owners, swap people, car corral folks, and small motor people. See message from the PAAC President.
If you were unable to attend the event, you can get a small "taste" of what it was like by viewing our slide shows.

Christmas means many things to people. For PAAC members Christmas includes participation in parades in Prescott. But, there is another activity that is not so visible to people outside of our club. This activity has an outward focus. We spend time and resources on making Christmas time a more enjoyable time for Veterans that are resident at the VA Hospital. To that end, gift requests are obtained, gifts are purchased and personally delivered by club members on Christmas Day. All club members are invited to help buy, wrap, and deliver gifts.
A major change this year, (2015)
We were asked if we could include a quilt for each verteran in addition to the other gifts. Glenda is leading that effort and will attempt to make 60 quilts between now and Christmas. Glenda needs help! For detals you can call her at 928-442-9543. See the poster by

The thing is... Since she's mostly human doesn't that mean that other than not having powers and the sight humans are just as dangerous as she is and it would be a really bad idea to piss us off as a race? What with our being able to use iron and all...

Red Bull were delighted after locking out the front row for the third time in a row
But World Champions not taking anything for granted ahead of race
By William Esler
Last Updated: 27/10/12 12:45pm
Qualifying was a lot tighter than the Milton Keynes-based team's advantage of half-a-second on Friday had suggested as McLaren and Ferrari closed the gap at the front.
Team Principal Christian Horner was pleased to see his drivers at the front, but felt they could have gone quicker had they completed a longer run in the final qualifying session.
"It was a great team performance, it was nip and tuck in that last session - Sebastian made a bit of a mistake on his first lap but Mark got a great one in, then vice-versa on the second. But it is great to secure the front row with both the cars here," he told Sky Sports F1.
"It is difficult to extract the lap time on the first lap on these tyres. We tried to do that but the soft compound is quite complicated here and maybe a longer run would have been better but nonetheless both drivers did a great job to get the lap times out."
Despite starting the race from the best possible position, Horner is expecting a tough race at the Buddh International Circuit, with the teams looking evenly matched on long-run pace.
"For sure with the two McLarens and the two Ferraris just behind us it is going to be a tough race tomorrow and their race looked reasonable - particularly the Ferrari," he added.
"So I think it is going to be a tough race and with such long straights in the first sector and a longer DRS Zone overtaking is very possible here."
That was a view shared by poleman Sebastian Vettel, who admitted the team won't enjoy the same advantage on Sunday.
"I am very happy to be on pole, it is the best position to start so I am very happy with that but there is a long race to come," the World Champion stated.
"On Friday everyone was reasonably competitive and the tyres are lasting quite well. The car is working really well, we have had a lot of feedback from the factory - the guys are working very hard so thanks to those guys as well."
Mark Webber was left ruing getting stuck behind both McLarens ahead of his final run, feeling that had he been able to push harder and generate more heat in the tyres, he could have been on pole for the second race in a row.
"Obviously it was a great day for us today, we put a lot of work into making sure we had a strong car and getting as high up the grid as possible and we managed to do that," the Australian said.
"It was very, very close between Seb and I, we both only really got one run with Seb making a mistake on his first lap and me not being able to get the right tyre prep with JB and Lewis doing their own thing which is fair enough.
"Any chinks? We are pretty good on Saturdays and Sundays, we have shown that in the last few races now. It is going to be a good race, it is tighter but we should have enough."
As for a race strategy on Sunday, Horner admits that it will be hard to predict how the track will evolve, stressing it was critical the team are flexible.
"Well Korea was potential a one stop on Saturday but it turned out to be nearly a three stop so we need to be able to react to it," he added.
"Obviously as the circuit rubbers in and goes faster that changes the dynamics of the race slightly. We were fairly gentle on the tyres yesterday and we will have a good look at it tonight."

Hi Jan. I love this years Mystary Quilt so much.
If only you could have this as a PDF download for us that adores your patterns so much and live trillions of miles away from each other .
That would be solution to all postage and comunication
Good morning! Just getting familiar with the site. Love your work and Audra's Iris Garden above is an awesome pattern. Thanks!ReplyDelete
We have a very limited number of fabric packs for each section as they appear in the magazine. They are for the fabrics only.
There will be a few substitutions on the green fabrics but we have everything else.
And this way, you can pay for the fabric in sections.
The price of the kits will vary according to how much fabric is in them. The total will probably not be over $200.00 but could be less. As you know with a kit, you're not only paying for fabric but for the labor involved.
And - even if I do say so myself - it's an awesome quilt.

Very useful to the, both young and old that are in pain trying to address household responsibilities down at the lower level.
I was a little nervous about ordering this product , afraid it would not hold my weight , as I am not a tiny person ! When it arrived , I was surprised at how sturdy it was ! I feel very safe and confident sitting on this seat while I do my gardening and weeding. I love this seat ! Just wish it had a pull handle and that the top opened up for easier access , but other than that , I highly recommend this product for anyone with bad knees and/or back or for anyone !
I am 88 years old and this product is wonderful for me to sit on and pull weeds from my flower beds and my garden. I love it.
This is the best gardening 'tool' I have! No more aching knees or strained lower back muscles. Just yank the weeds and scoot onto the next patch!
I love this gardening stool on wheels. I have sore knees and can't kneel and this works perfectly. I can work in the garden, store my garden tools below, and move as I garden. So many friends have seen this garden stool and asked me where to get it. I recommend it very highly and it is very sturdy and will last for years.
My neighbor has a Step2 Garden Hopper and that is why I bought one of my own. She was using it as much as I needed to borrow it from her. The model she has (purchased 2002)has solid wheels. The Hopper I purchased wheels are open in the back and not solid. Gravel and other small items (grass, weeds & bark) gets in there, builds up and is harder to roll and maneuver. They could also improve the comfort of the seat.
WalMart used to have these in store, but ordered it online and they shipped it to a local store promptly. I had one of these for years, and lent it out for someone laying hardwood floors, and never got it back... Perfect for flooring work, electrical outlet installs, and general close to floor contruction - preventing the need to get up and down.
I have another one of these that I had bought several years ago. I love it and use it all the time, indoors and out. So I decided to get another.
The exact same "work seat" has been CHEAPENED so much, that I can't even use it. It won't hold my weight (the old one does fine). Plus, of course, they raised the price since the other one. I didn't mind paying more as everything usually goes up in price, but I expected it to be the same as the old one. The wheels are the main thing that are really chincey. But I think the plastic is a thinner guage too (not as strong). My wife can use it, but I can't.
I extremely unhappy with it.
I love gardening, but when my bad knees made it difficult to get on the ground, the Garden Hopper was the answer. It's light enough to carry when I have to move to another location and the right height to lean over and pull weeds or work the soil. The next time I wash the car, I'll be sitting on this work seat cleaning the wheels instead of leaning over. I love the beverage holder. It's real handy. It's sturdy and it rolls around easily, but don't leave it out in the rain. The tool carrier under the seat will fill with water.
This is the 2nd time I purchase - first one was for me, 2nd one was for an envious neighbor. It perfect for making your way down garden rows for weeding or harvesting. My neighbor also uses it to detail the loser parts of his car.
I purchased this product three years ago and loved it. It was an amazing little stool, great for washing the cars, gardening, washing the lower half of glass doors, etc and so forth. Unfortunately my stool didn't get packed in one of my moves but was so useful, I ordered a new one. The quality of the new stool is terrible compared to the first. The wheels don't roll smoothly (they seem to be thinner), the plastic is rough around the seams, it doesn't have a hitch on it anymore. It's too bad really because the first little stool was so useful.
Help to save older knee's
This cart is fantastic for using both inside and out. I have used it for buffing and waxing the car(getting the low points) Wheel Polishing, Arranging the rock garden. Inside for the cleaning of the base board, using the crevice attachment on vacuum for the edges
The work seat makes gardening easier and is usable as described. However, it is light duty and not made for heavy people, like myself. Still, a good value for the price.
Bought for my wife and she is crazy about the thing. Makes her gardening chores much easier!
I used this cart/seat this morning for the first time..I found it was something that worked..but I did have problems with getting down and up off the seat ..I am older and the seat seemed too low for me..so getting up and off was a challenge. That is why the over all rating was only a 4 not a 5..As far as durability goes..I found it to be remarkably durable and held my chunky weight nicely.
This was just what I was looking for or so I thought. After reading all the reviews looking at the picture I thought this would be perfect for MY garden use but it wasn't. This product was as advertised, it would do what it promised but I guess the reviews mislead me. So let me be honest for anyone on the fence about this product. This product will be great for your garden uses if you are able to sit really low. If you have a problem with this don't but this, it is lower than a milk crate. It can hold 225 lbs with no problem but I would be careful with more weight. Being disabled and not being able to bend and get on my knees I wanted something to sit on and move around the garden after getting this work seat I had to return it. This product did not meet my needs.
I have owned this garden hopper for 6 to 7 YEARS and it is still going strong. It is very sturdy, light weight and looks almost the same as it did when I bought it. It is a little tattered and dirty but that's my fault. I carry it all over my three acre yard. Even with my severe arthritis it is easy to handle and has saved me many hours of squatting and bending. You won't go wrong with this one!!!!
Item is durable enough for the garden and workshop, stores small tools and rolls easily in any terrain.
I love my Garden Hopper. Recent surgery on my ankle prevented me from getting down on my knees to work on my flower beds. It is the perfect height and I can sit and bend over without straining my back. The wheels glide over the lawn effortlessly. Wish I had bought it years ago.

We all know that people who predict the future professionally are overwhelmingly really bad at it. Financial analysts, political consultants and pundits, sports commentators, and so on usually do no better than chance. When people do have a good track record, it's usually over a fairly short time, and they're subject to dramatic reversals. Myron Scholes, who won the Nobel Prize for his work on the Black-Scholes Theorem, started the hedge fund "Long-Term Capital Management". Unfortunately, "long-term" wasn't a very good description. Although it had a good start, the fund lost $4.6 billion in a few months. That's over four-hundred dollars per second for four months. Oops! How quickly could you shovel twenty-dollar bills into a furnace? I think I could do it that quickly, but only if I didn't need to rest.
Myron Scholes is smart. Very smart. So are lots of other people with equally abysmal (although not quite as spectacular) track records. What are they doing wrong?
In my opinion, the answer is that they're outsmarting themselves by doing a few things incorrectly:
- They factor in too many variables. If you're trying to predict a system, and you do so by accounting for a huge number of distinct variables, you'll be guaranteed to fit the data. But then, when you try to extrapolate from your model, it won't work. This is a common phenomenon called "overfitting". It consists in trying so hard to fit the past data that the model becomes overly complex and loses any predictive power.
- They make excuses for their failures. You can easily go back over your predictions, and find reasons for all the bad ones. It's human nature to say, "My method was okay, but there were special one-time circumstances that caused that specific prediction to go wrong."
- The lose track of the common-sense justification for their predictions. As the model becomes more complicated, whatever plausible justification you once had gets lost. That's a sign that you're now failing to pay attention to the most important features of the system, and that you're getting swamped by small, accidental features that will probably turn out to be misleading over the long run.
Financial markets are complicated, and I'm not an economist. So I tend to think about markets in an overly simple way. As it turns out, there happens to be a well-known family of economic models that operate with the same assumptions. Sometimes, they're called "heterogenous investor models". In these models, there are two kinds of investors. One kind is the Warren Buffet type of investor. This type of investor does a lot of research into a company's fundamentals. They don't particularly care what they price of the company's stock happens to be right now, or how it's moving. And they pay no attention at all to the small day-to-day (or second-to-second) price movements. They look for companies that are doing the right things, have solid fundamentals, and then this type of investor buys and holds for the long term.
The other type of investor is the exact opposite. This investor doesn't care about the company's fundamentals, or even what industry they're in. They look at technical data and try to predict what direction the price will move over the short run. "Day traders" are often like this. They have lots of charts and numbers and try to get ahead of small-term momentum and swings in the market. They buy and sell the same stocks very quickly.
By this way of looking at the market, these two types of investor determine the prices of stocks. When the price of stock has moved far away from the company's fundamentals, we have the day traders to blame. When the price corrects, and is in line with fundamentals, that's due to the Buffet-style investors. What these models predict is that when the day traders have moved the price of a stock too far from its fundamentals, we expect a price correction. So if you see a stock whose price is too high or too low, you can make an informed prediction for how it will move in the near- to medium-run.
Of course, if it were that easy to tell when the price of a stock was "too high" or "too low", investing would be easy. Ideally, what you'd do if you wanted to make such a judgment would be to read everything you possibly could about every company. If you could learn every detail about everything that happened to a company (or entire sector of an economy), you could determine whether you should be optimistic or pessimistic about it. Then, you could tell if the price was too high, too low, or just right.
This isn't revolutionary, by any stretch of the imagination. Investors talk about "market sentiment" all the time, and they have lots of ways of measuring it. Some people try to aggregate the judgments of large numbers of professional investors, newsletters, or news stories. Others look at technical indicators like the number of long vs. short positions outstanding, or the number of put vs. call options. There are hundreds of these measures.
What we do is a little different. We collect thousands of news stories every day for thousands of different companies that are publicly traded. Our computers analyze the text and determine the overall mood of the news stories. Right now, we have about a quarter of a million news stories in our database, and our machines have assigned scores to all of them. This allows us to graph a stock's mood over time. When we find that there's a significant difference the mood and the price, we can make a prediction that the price will move in the general direction of the mood over the next few days. When the price is high but the mood is negative, we conclude that the day traders have pushed the price too high, and that it's due to come back down. When the price is low but the mood is very positive, we predict that the price will go up.
Unlike most financial projections, it's based on two variables only: price and mood. Of course, calculating the mood is not easy -- that's our "secret sauce" and I won't be describing it here (or anywhere). When the price and the mood are too far apart, we predict that they'll come together soon.
Now the question is how to validate this method. For one thing, you'd expect that overall, the price of a stock and the mood of its news stories would correlate. So as a first test, we can pick a stock and graph its mood vs. its price. In this chart, we've picked Goldman Sachs. The red line is the mood, the blue line is the price of its shares.
Over and over again, this is what we find. There is an obvious correlation between price and mood. Of course, there's a lot of noise in these systems, so the correlation isn't ever perfect. But they track each other nicely, the vast majority of the time. This is particularly striking when you keep in mind that the mood was calculated using only the text of news stories, automatically analyzed by computer. No information about price or any other financial data was used to generate that line. So the fact that it correlates with the price is very strong evidence that we're measuring something real.
And what happens when the blue line and the red line come apart? We predict that the price will move in the direction of the mood. Our data indicates that this happens on average about two or three days after their distance has reached a particular threshold. We put our predictions online (and we send out free daily emails to anyone who wants to sign up). So far, we are about 90% accurate when we predict that the price will go up, and about 60% accurate when we predict that it will go down. Why we're so much better for the former is an interesting question that we're exploring now.
For the curious, here are a few more charts.
Netflix is a good examples of a chart that shows a strong correlation between price and sentiment.
The obvious feature of the Netflix data is the big jump in sentiment in early December, which correlated with an increase in stock price. A quick news search shows that Netflix acquired the rights to distribute Disney content on December 4th, so this jump makes perfect sense.
Here's a chart in which the price has come apart from the sentiment in an interesting way.
At the time I write this, there's a lot of debate out there about whether Apple is a good value or not. The price (as you can see by looking at the blue line) has been falling for a while now. But interestingly, the news about Apple has been trending positive. In our data set, we usually see the price move in the direction of the mood at this point. So we'd predict that Apple is due for an upward price movement soon, probably within the next week. We'll see how this prediction turns out.

National Center for Education Statistics census data housing population school districts ICPSR.I.A.1.b This data file contains school district-level data from the following two sources: (1) the National Institute of Education (NIE) Special Tabulations of 1970 Census data, retabulated to 1973-1974 school district boundaries, and (2) the 1970 Census of Population and Housing Fifth Count data. The data in this collection were extracted from the 1976-1977 Merged Federal File produced by AUI Policy Research. Since some districts on the 1976-1977 Merged Federal File had consolidated by 1978-1979, NIE Special Tabulations data for these districts were combined. The Census data file was created in three steps. First, a skeleton file was created, containing one record for each school district on the 1978-1979 Merged Federal File. Each record on the skeleton file contained those data items in the School District Identification segment on the Merged Federal File. Second, the NIE Special Tabulations data were merged by the Office of Education (OE) state code and Local Education Agency (LEA) code to the skeleton file. Finally, Census Fifth Count records were merged by OE state code and LEA code to the skeleton file. 2003-01-31 census/enumeration data 3523 10.3886/ICPSR03523.v1 self-enumerated questionnaires Alabama Alaska Arizona Arkansas California Colorado Connecticut Delaware District of Columbia Florida Georgia Hawaii Idaho Illinois Indiana Iowa Kansas Kentucky Louisiana Maine Maryland Massachusetts Michigan Minnesota Mississippi Missouri Montana Nebraska Nevada New Hampshire New Jersey New Mexico New York (state) North Carolina North Dakota Ohio Oklahoma Oregon Pennsylvania Rhode Island South Carolina South Dakota Tennessee Texas United States Utah Vermont Virginia Washington West Virginia Wisconsin Wyoming ICPSR metadata records are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial 3.0 United States License (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/us/).

Economic Upheaval
Surveying the wreckage for signs of life.
12:00 AM, Oct 11, 2008 • By IRWIN M. STELZER
The world's politicians are now running full tilt to get ahead of the markets. So far, the markets are winning, plunging in what to all appearances is a death spiral. Share prices fall, making it nearly impossible for the banks to raise new capital; house prices fall, reducing the value of the mortgage-backed securities on bank balance sheets; governments offer to help by buying preference shares in the banks, but the claims these shares would have on future earnings spook common shareholders, and prices fall further.
Not that the policymakers have not finally gotten it right. Led by British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, they are now about to shore up the capital of the big banks, to increase their ability to lend. Meanwhile, Hank Paulson and his U.S.Treasury team are about to take $700 billion of dicey loans from the banks, and replace them with good hard cash, while Federal Reserve Board Chairman Ben Bernanke invents new ways to throw his balance sheet into the breach. Throw in the fact that the world's central banks finally decided that Bernanke has had it right by keeping interest rates low, and that Bank of England Governor Mervyn King and European Central Bank President Jean-Claude Trichet have been wrong to keep rates high, and you have a policy mix that should break the credit logjam.
Two problems. First, these policy remedies will not take effect immediately. In America, Paulson and his team--headed by an unknown former Goldman Sachs employee, AC/DC fan and aerospace engineer, 35-year- old Neel Kashkari--have to find some way of valuing the bank assets they plan to buy, and hire experts to conduct the eventual sales. In Britain, bankers are not sure that they want to avail themselves of the up-to-£50 billion Brown has on offer in exchange for control over their compensation and some of their operations. They will try to raise at least some of the capital in the markets, a great step forward if they succeed.
Second, and in the end more important, the forward progress made possible by the stimulative measures taken by the several governments is bucking the strong headwinds created by an emerging worldwide recession. The International Monetary Fund says its studies show that financial upheavals following run-ups in house prices generally produce serious recessions. So it sees "a substantial likelihood of a sharp downturn in the United States."
The data suggest that such a downturn is already underway. The travails of the housing industry have been too fully reported to need comment here. Nine consecutive months of job losses have cut the number of jobs in the nonfarm sector by 760,000 so far this year. Jobless claims are at their highest level since 2001, and it is taking longer for the unemployed to find new jobs. Orders for manufactured goods are falling at an accelerating rate, and a leading index of manufacturing activity records the lowest level since the days following the September 11 terrorist attacks on America. Car sales are so low that there are serious doubts about the ability of General Motors to survive the downturn, despite a $25 billion government handout to the industry to help it convert to greener vehicles. Once-mighty GM a few weeks ago drew down the last $3.5 billion from its revolving credit line.
Little wonder that consumer sentiment is dropping, and with it retail sales, a fall that will accelerate when millions of families begin receiving reports, now in the mail, of the third-quarter performance of their 401(k) pension plans. "Discretionary retail sales are cratering," reports Goldman Sachs. Its economists estimate that consumer spending, adjusted for inflation, will decline in the current quarter for the first time since 1991. One wag says retailers should expect a Charles Darwin rather than a Charles Dickens Christmas, a frightening prospect for all save Wal-Mart, which is benefiting from downmarket moves by consumers either hurt by the downturn or fearing they are next in line for layoffs: Its sales seem to be growing at an annual rate of close to 3 percent.
One last note of gloom: Exports, which had shored up the otherwise weak economy, cannot sustain their recent rapid growth. The recession is now global, meaning that export markets are drying up. And overseas sales will be hurt by the continuing strength of the dollar, as investors around the world flee to the safe haven of U.S. Treasury securities. Well, safe relative to just about anything you can think of.

This morning our very own Chip Patterson wrote about how Oklahoma 's secondary -- which had quite a bit of trouble against lowly Utah State last week -- was going to have its hands full with Florida State quarterback Christian Ponder . Turns out that it's the Seminoles secondary that has its hands full, it's legs full, and just about every part of their body full with the Sooners offense.
Landry Jones is lighting it up. Jones completed 22 of his 28 pass attempts for 321 yards and three touchdowns in the first half as the Sooners have built a 34-7 lead over the Seminoles. DeMarco Murray has accounted for the rest of the Sooners offense, scoring two touchdowns even if he is only averaging two yards a carry in the first half (10 carries, 20 yards).
How's the Oklahoma secondary doing?
Well, Ponder has only completed 47% (8/17) of his passes in the first half for 80 yards and no touchdowns, so I'd say the Sooner secondary is holding up quite qell.
Keep in mind, though, that the Sooners had a 21-0 lead over Utah State last week before barely holding on to win 31-24. So there is still some hope on the Seminoles sideline. Okay, who am I kidding? This one's done.

"I order all my invitations from tiny prints and have always been satisfied and this time was no different! Fast delivery and a beautiful product as always. I especially like the back detail on this invitation, it makes it extra special :)"
"The invites were exactly what I was looking good for. Delicate with a sentimental value to it. Perfect for my son's christening. All my guest really love the touch and the mood it set when they received it."
"I was so pleased with the design review process. I requested that the writing on the card stand out against the photo that I selected so it could be easily read and the proof I was sent was exactly what I was looking for."
"Quality of invite is great. Printing is flawless. Only issue is that one of my twin babies has a shorter name than the other so it looked a little funny."

When I get some vacation time I'm always excited to take in some concerts. I was able to make a couple shows last week when Mike Zito & the Wheel visited Canal House Wednesday and Peter Frampton brought his Guitar Circus tour to Columbus on Thursday.
Along with Frampton at LC Pavilion were Robert Cray (who played a set) and Steve Cropper (who joined Frampton for a few songs).
The last time I visited the LC Pavilion for a concert was when the Avett Brothers made an appearance a couple of years ago. I stood up on the lawn section. This time Jeff Orr (whose son won two tickets for the show and gave them to his dad) suggested standing up close to the stage. It definitely was worth it. There really is a different kind of feeling when you get caught up in an enthusiastic crowd ... and many of the folks were around our age since Frampton has been playing for a long time.
Cray started off the evening with a solid set. The song I'm most familiar with from Cray is "Smoking Gun." The song got a lot of radio play back in the mid 80s. Check out the video of "Smoking Gun" below. You probably know it.
One of the interesting things about Cray is that he changes guitars after every song. I'm not sure if he is superstitious or plays them so hard he needs them tuned after each number.
Frampton's set was fantastic. It took me back to the "Frampton Comes Alive" days. I think most of my friends had a copy of the album when it was released way back in the 70s. I wore the grooves out on that album.
The highlight of the concert for me was when Frampton performed "I'll Give You Money." He and guitarist Adam Lester put together an incredible guitar sequence. I was on YouTube the next morning hoping to find a version of the performance. I found a pretty good clip from a show Frampton performed in Argentina a couple of years ago that illustrates his guitar wizardry. And like Jeff said after hearing the song - "Wow, who is the guy playing with Frampton?" Lester certainly can hold his own. Check it out. Things really get good about five minutes in.
You might not know who Steve Cropper is, but you have probably heard music he's played or songs he's co-written. Cropper is 71 years old and is known for being guitarist for the Stax Records house band, Booker T. & the M.G.'s. He's backed artists such as Otis Redding ("Sittin' on the Dock of the Day") and Sam and Dave ("Soul Man"). Cropper co-wrote "In the Midnight Hour" with Wilson Pickett and teamed up with Frampton to play the song Thursday. Cropper also joined Frampton for the encore and they played "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" by the Beatles.
Of course one of the things that comes to mind when you think about Frampton is the talk box he uses in his songs. He played the classic "Do You Feel Like We Do," and brought the house down. It was one of the best shows I've seen and I suggest going to see him perform. He can still bring it.
Wednesday Zito's show was great as he showed the different styles he has developed. Zito and his band couldn't have picked a better time to visit Tuscarawas County. His new album Gone to Texas is at the top of the blues chart and he played many of his songs from the disc. "Gone to Texas," the title track, is one of my favorites. I can definitely hear the country influence on this one. Check out Zito's video of the song.
The female backing on the song is provided by Susan Cowsill. Folks around my age probably remember the group the Cowsills - they sang "Hair." She was just a young kid when that song came out so many years ago. Delbert McClinton and Sonny Landreth also help out on the new album.
On Wednesday Zito brought along his drummer Rob Lee from New Orleans and bassist Scot Sutherland from Des Moines, Iowa. Lewis Stephens (keyboards) and Jimmy Carpenter (sax and guitars) round out the Wheel's lineup on the album.
Tuesday night another talented guitar player heads to Canal House. Walter Trout has more than 20 albums to his credit and has played with Canned Heat and John Mayall. Should be another great show. Check out this clip from Trout of "Blues For My Baby."

Christ the Savior Academy believes that children are spiritual beings. Education is more than mere preparation for worldly success, but, rather, is training the mind, body, and soul for a well-ordered life and inheritance of the Kingdom of God. We believe that parents, the Church and the school can work together to set a strong foundation for a child's life
The mission of Christ the Savior Academy is to train the mind of the student to recognize unchanging truth and form the soul in virtuous character by immersion in a classical curriculum and historic Orthodox Christian spirituality. Our students will enjoy superior preparation for higher education, future vocation, virtuous living, and eternity.
Preparation for the school began more than 16 years ago, when St. George broke ground on the educational wing just west of its cathedral at 13th and Rock Road. Three years ago, a steering committee formed to develop a stategic plan to open a school. Christ the Savior Academy is a dream driven by Orthodox parents in Wichita, KS, who desire their children to be wholly educated – mind, body and soul.

There are many people living on Earth who have come from a distant planet called Orbsey-and others who have come home. The price for the return trip was all memory of their time on Orbsey, but even their technology can't fully eradicate all memories. So many experience small glimpses of what could be a dream of their past lives on an alien world, but they are afraid to speak of them, for fear of being ridiculed. But the hidden burden of their experience cannot be denied.
Stolen from Earth and forced to serve on Orbsey for at least five years, these lost children of humanity struggle to rebuild their lives upon their return to Mother Earth. Taken for research purposes, they were the subjects of Orbsien studies on the very human predilection for violence. But despite the methodology, the motives were noble: the scientists of Orbsey want to find the cure for violence. But two thousand years of observation and research have failed.
Now, two Orbsien students have been given a grant to travel back in time to do a full-time study on Earth. These young aliens take human wives and settle into Earth culture. When they devise a plan to return to Orbsey with their wives, their plans become complicated by temporal issues: can these women from Earth's past adjust to life in its present-let alone the future on Orbsey?
hese students risk it all in the name of love-proving that some things are universal after all.

text: In California, we have the most sophisticated Civil Unions in the country, guaranteeing EVERY BENEFIT of marriage to same-sex couples. However, there are serious consequences to the religious and civil rights of those who do not believe that same—sex marriages are equal with heterosexual marriages. It is no longer simply, "live and let live". 1) Parental rights in public schools will be trampled, as same-sex materials are implemented in K-12 2) Adoption agencies will be sued or forced to close their doors if they do not comply with state laws that allow same-sex adoption (as happened to Catholic Charities in MA.) 3) Private schools and home schools will not be accredited and licensed by the state if they do not comply with the same-sex curriculum 4) Private colleges will be required to open their married housing units to same-sex couples, or lose their accreditation 5) Physicians will be sued or lose their license if they refuse artificial insemination to lesbian couples 6) Pastors will be sued or imprisoned (as in Canada) if they preach against homosexuality, or refuse to marry such couples These are not scare tactics. Every one of these situations has already occurred, where same-sex marriage is legal. 1,500 laws in the state of California will have to be re-written to accommodate same-sex language. Endless lawsuits will challenge religious liberties . In 1998, the U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Child specifically guaranteed every child the RIGHT to a mother and a father. It is an internationally recognized human right. Those are the rights we should be protecting this November. For 158 years of California's history as a state, marriage has been defined as "only between a man and a woman." This is good law, good sense, good for children and for society. That's why I'm voting "YES!" on Prop 8. Mesha Davis Auburn

Yes, the legal definition of US customary units is tied to the metric system.
However, in 1959 the definitions were changed slightly, so the inch is now defined as exactly 2.54 cm, which is a few ppm different from the older definition you quote.
An interesting side effect was the need for yet another unit, the "US survey foot", based on the old definition of the inch, so that we would not need to re-define every land ownership document in the nation.
I refer to 1959 as the year that the US went metric, but did not tell anyone.

About Us
Each product at Tadpole Store has a story to tell. Our love for design not only makes us pick and select the best of the designs but bring out tales and stories of what went behind each product that we sell. These tales of the product and its creator are something unique to products like ours, which are made with a passion, purpose and only in select numbers.
Started in 2011 we have been delivering the delight of truly exceptional products to thousands of customers across the globe.
Before we introduce you properly to our box, how about we answer your curiosity behind our name.
Tadpole is a journey, a transition from one state to another. The preparation of that one giant leap - the inertia that makes change happen. And otherwise, Tadpole stands for The Academy of Design Promotion through Observation, Learning & Exploration.
We started Tadpole in 2011 and have been expanding our efforts to help people understand design and love it through our various efforts.
So who's the box, you ask?
Our identity of the dotted box is a reference to the concept of creativity linked with the 'out of the box'. We say design happens in a space where the boundaries of out of the box and within the context blur and the planes of actuality and possibility converge. It's a beautiful space where the possibilities are infinite and how the dots are joined defines what comes of it!

Girls who are coached in sports, leadership and academics from as young as 8 years old are better equipped to combat social pressures and enter adulthood as healthy individuals, says social worker and triathlete Molly Barker, founder of Girls on the Run, a nongovernmental organization (NGO).
"Peer pressure plays a big role in a child's development in the middle school years," Barker told USINFO. "Girl-only groups provide a ripe environment to discuss the challenges that peer pressure can bring and an opportunity to create coping strategies to handle this pressure before it actually exists." In the United States, middle school usually refers to grades six, seven and eight.
According to published reports by the American Psychological Association, young girls in the United States are vulnerable to some of the same mental health problems facing some women today, including low self-confidence and depression. Programs designed specifically to help adolescent girls stay mentally healthy and obtain tools to be successful at school, at home and in life are becoming increasingly important, said Anissa Freeman, executive officer of Girls on the Run.
Girls on the Run sponsors programs in the United States for girls 8 to 13 years old that combine training for a five-kilometer running event with confidence-building workouts. Because the before- and after-school programs provide lessons that enhance emotional and social health, the benefits are more than physical.
For example, at an early morning practice in February at a primary school in Arlington, Virginia, girls learned the importance of making and keeping promises. Coach Jenn Brown used cue cards to prompt discussions related to keeping promises and then incorporated lessons into relay races. Even simply placing the cue cards at poles around the track field and having the girls race to find them and discuss them in teams drove the point home.
"If you keep your promise, people will trust you," said Isabel, age 10, who has participated in Girls on the Run for three years. "The [Girls on the Run] practices really push you to do all you can do."
"The running makes me feel good about myself, respect myself," said Elise, age 11. "If you take the practices seriously, it's not hard to run the race."
Leadership Training
Summer mornings at another program for young girls in North Carolina begin peacefully at dawn with yoga classes, but by the time the girls fall into their beds close to midnight, their minds are racing with ideas.
"Born to lead" is the theme of the Power Girls Global Summer Leadership Institute for girls of color, aged 14 to 17, from around the world at Bennett College for Women in Greensboro. Targeting African-American, Asian-American, Hispanic-American and American Indian girls, the two-week residential leadership training program uses education and training to bring opportunities within reach of young minority women.
"By the time some girls go to college, it is too late to orient them to the idea that they can be the CEO [chief executive officer] of a business or even start their own business," said Bea Y. Perdue, president of the Johnnetta B. Cole Global Diversity and Inclusion Institute at Bennett College for Women. "Part of the problem is that many young women of color do not have access to women who look like them, who are successful in church, government and industry."
Participants work with mentors to develop oral, written and interpersonal skills and to examine issues affecting minority women within the global marketplace. Team experiences in developing and implementing business plans teach marketing along with managing conflict.
The goal of Power Girls is to show girls how to attain the skills they will need to be successful rather than just telling them what to do. The program exposes the participants to leaders in government and industry who mentor them in all-day activities. Students visit the North Carolina state capital, where they meet key women in government, and career sessions introduce them to successful women in an array of jobs with local and national companies.
"We have to reach these girls early on and we have to make them aware of the possibilities while encouraging them to make their own personal growth and education a priority," said Perdue.
Mentoring Underserved Girls
It is widely accepted that girls between the ages of 8 and 12 still are receptive to adult influence while beginning to feel peer pressure. The nongovernmental organization Girls Inc. recognizes the importance of adult mentoring during these years.
"We know that girls have the capacity to do or be whatever they want, but they are often limited by external expectations and by their lack of confidence," said Joyce M. Roche, head of Girls Inc., which provides after-school mentoring to adolescent girls.
Girls Inc. programs teach girls to tackle math and science in school and to learn fundamental economic concepts so that they can make the right financial decisions for themselves, according to Roche. The programs teach girls how to be economically self-sufficient and provide basic information about the stock market. They also examine peer pressure and violence.
Girls Inc. centers allow girls to "try new things they may be less likely to try with boys around," Roche said.
Girls Inc. was founded as the Girls Club of America in 1864 to help young girls who were migrating from rural communities to cities. Today, most Girls Inc. clubs help American girls in high-risk, underserved areas confront social pressures and prepare them to lead successful and fulfilling lives, Roche said. The organization changed its name to Girls Inc. in 1990.
Both Girls on the Run and Girls Inc. receive public funding from agencies authorized by the U.S. Congress, and the local clubs associated with the NGOs receive significant community support from businesses and large corporations.
Additional information on Girls on the Run and Girls Inc. is available on the groups' Web sites. More information about the Power Girls Global Summer Leadership Institute is available on the Bennett College for Women Web site.

Reaching 10 feet (3 meters) in length and more than 300 pounds (136 kilograms), Komodo dragons are the heaviest lizards on Earth. They have long, flat heads with rounded snouts, scaly skin, bowed legs, and huge, muscular tails.

I like landscape, preferably B&W.
I like antiques and I like modern painting. By which I mean that amongst a mass of uninteresting and downright unpleasant material there is a small proportion of items that I enjoy greatly. It's the same with landscape photography. Most examples have little or a sharply transient appeal, but sometimes I see photographs that excite and inspire me. They can be in colour or b&w, but either way they are likely to be an imaginative and individual way of treating a subject rather than a piece of national park in nice light. They are as likely to be an urban scene as a wilderness.
I'm finding it increasingly difficult to become enthused by simply capturing an attractive place in good light- whether I've done it or its someone else's work. The application of imagination and/or some element of personal style is now much more important to me than the accurate, natural rendition of a scene as it appears to the eye.
df, I liked your shot and the fact that it was neither stock golden-hour beach nor a post-Adams brutalised landscape but something at once contemporary in feel and beautiful.

As to the original question I'd say B&W because I dislike dealing with labs. My current project is making me rethink that (and unlike most of my recent-years color work, I don't want to do it in digital).

I've avoided answer this question, because in my case the answer would be quite obvious, and because I wanted to provide more depth in my reasons.
Yes, I like landscapes, and I only do them in color. I see nothing wrong or limiting in B&W, but B&W fails to meet my vision. When I walk around during the day, I constantly amazed at the vibrant color I see around me, simple things like the color of the sky, the water, even cars and buildings.
Color is part of our natural world. It impacts even how we feel about ourselves and the world around us, and can impart a sense of "moment". When I am out photographing, this sense of "moment" is what I am striving to capture. For example, in the following image:
In this image, the moment includes the movement of the wave as it crashes on the shore, it includes the hightlight of the sun on the plants in the foreground, it includes the reflection of the sun on the sand. This is a moment that has happened, and will never happen again.
I know a lot of people, including some here, want to dismiss the idea of color landscapes as simply "trite" or "colorful calendar" art, but to do so, IMO, shows a lack of awareness of what can be seen in the natural world. Some people see their photography as a means of expressing the "art" within them, but I see my photography as a means of expressing the glory of the world that we live in. We live in an ugly world, my images are my attempt to bring about a sense of beauty.

And that's certainly a pretty pic and illustrative of your desire for a 'moment' (exactly what I thought about even before reading your description).
Given that we do live in a world that contains so many postcards and calendars, are there ways to excercise your sense of beauty beyond the obvious sources (I've spent plenty of time on the windward beaches too -- and know well that they are beutiful without having to do much extra work)? I think your desire for a 'moment' is a step in that direction
I'll go either way, depending on the scene and the impact. when shooting film, i'd ususally carry both color and b/w holders.
either could have worked with the other's film.. i felt the most impact emotionally with the way there were captured.
Love that top image, Jim. I can feel the cold all the way over here in Hawaii.

man this Dominance War 4 game is going to be awesome with great concept work like this backing it!! Very nice!
Why can't monsters in computer games be like this? This monster tells a story as well as being scary.
Seems like developers pull back from anything truly grotesque or disturbing and resort to the same old stable of demons and zombies we've seen a hundred times.
Scary games should take you OUTSIDE your comfort zone and make you confront things you've never seen before.

I get a real sense of humour from this piece! ;D Although it's pretty disturbing...
