Packers defensive lineman Johnny Jolly -- currently suspended indefinitely by the NFL -- received a six-year prison sentence for violation of his probation on Thursday.
Jolly was charged with possession of codeine in October (in addition to tampering with evidence) -- the third drug arrest for Jolly in three years. His most recent arrest violated the parole that spared Jolly jail time stemming from a charge in April.
The defensive lineman has been featured in numerous media interviews leading up to his verdict, in which he essentially filed an emotional public plea for another chance.
However Jolly, drafted in the sixth round of the 2006 NFL Draft by the Packers, has apparently run out of chances, at least for now. This is his final season under contract with the Packers and given his recent run of arrests, he may find it difficult to secure an early release from prison.
Jolly started 48 games for the Packers, including all 16 in 2008 and 2009, and recorded 77 tackles, two sacks, one interception and 17 pass deflections. He is eligible for parole after 14 months of his current sentence.

Johnny Jolly gets 6 years in prison
How many of these guys cop out to being an addict when in reality they just like to have a good time?

Johnny Jolly gets 6 years in prison
Thanks marionc - agree with you. twocoach also makes a good point regarding criminals.
jeffsmoker talked about legalizing marijuana but according to the article, Jolly was charged with possession of codeine and evidence tampering. What does legalizing marijuana have to do with this case. The simple truth is that people are responsible for their own actions (mental illness is an exception to this). A pro athelete can afford to get the help he needs IF he wants to.

jeffsmoker, Saying we should help addicts is one thing. Letting a millionaire football player go to rehab instead of prison because he chose not to go himself when he had THREE opportunities to do just that is another. I think our drug laws are largely ridiculous and counteractive, but we also shouldn't just give addicts a "pass" because they decided doing the drug was easier than finding help, which is available if you look. I understand some addiction, I've dealt with it myself...but the thing that doesn't help is continually telling people "it's not their fault." All that does is affirm their dependance on the drug, "it's wasn't up to you, it's the drug" doesn't help anyone get better, it gives them an excuse instead of taking accountability. It says "you can only quit with help" instead of saying "you can quit if you make better choices and start caring for yourself." You need to realize that no matter how much help you get, YOU are the only person that can make the changes to your lifestyle that will stop you from using.
I realize that they need help more than punishment, but without any punishment, there is much less deterrence from starting to use again. If you get constant support and help every time you screw up, why are you going to take control of your life and decide to change? Some people will realize that not being an addict is better, but many will just create an endless cycle of relapse...There are many things wrong with drug laws, but addicts need to be treated with care AND a stern reality. They are the ones that need to decide to change and no amount of free rehab will fix them if they don't.

Perhaps he should have (or maybe he did and it didn't work) gotten rehab after his first two arrests. How many chances should you get to break the law and get help before you actually do the time? I am all for rehab, but after your 3rd arrest?? Jolly had his chances (two to be apparently) and he wasted them.

"There would no longer be Mexican drug Cartels and the crime rate would be reduced."
Criminals aren't going to just find an honest way of life. They will just move on to a different means of making crooked money. Legalize marijuana and Mexican Drug cartels will just start moving more cocaine and heroin and guns and humans. Be realistic.

Why is it that addicts are sentenced to prison time rather than rehab? It makes no sense. One of the reasons the US is the leader in incarcerated individuals, especially a disproportionate number of people of color. Legalize and regulate marijuana, and provide detox not prison for drug users. Go hard after the dealers but help the addicts.

My LO has been complaining that her pee pee hurts on and off for like a few weeks now. I thought maybe cuz she still has accidents a few nights a week in her pull up maybe its irritated from that. Then she ended up getting sick so i took her to the dr. and had urine checked but came back fine and anyways had z-pac for sore throat. I ask her if she's touching down there and am very good about teaching her to keep it clean down there..My question is has anyone's LO ever had a urinary tract infection or yeast infection?? If so, what symptoms would I see??
Girl Question
Comments (6)
Did you ask her if it hurts when she pees or does it look red and irritated. Also it might smell kind of bad down there. If the test came back fine maybe she might have vaginitis.

DD had a UTI a couple of years ago. Got meds and got it taken care of. Easy. She was younger so basically complained of pain when she went potty, that was about it. Best of luck!
Thanks for the tips..she doesn't have many symptoms except maybe a little red inside but will look into vaginitus
When my dd was first in charge of her own wiping (and I was no longer wiping after her most of the time) she had frequent reddness and pain issues. It was not a UTI or yeast infection but the exterior skin was reddish and she complained it hurt.
I would instruct her to make sure she was extra clean with a wash cloth in the bath and/or a wet wipe outside the bath and then check how she did (once it hurt to touch she was even less good at cleaning) and put A&D on just like back when she was an infant. I would do this at night before bed and by the next morning she would say it no longer hurt. The problem with this was that that the white sticky zinc oxide in it was really hard for her to get off in the following days and seeing that bothered her (with her new focus on cleaning) so I started just using plain ordinary vaseline and that worked just as good to help soothe and clear things up and possibly acted to protect her skin from the wetness? In any case we went through this cycle quite a bit for a few months until she became good at wiping herself. Now it is no longer a problem.
Mommy to boy/girl twins born Jan 08!!
My DD has this problem occassionally. A friend of mine told me to sprinkle baking soda into her bathwater. Works like a charm!
I don't really measure how much, probably 1/4 to 1/2 a cup.
Our family is complete!�
Aubrey Judith 1/12/08 and Makayla Ann 4/28/11
My daugther still gets a little irritated every once in a while. She's usually in charge of her cleaning but I go behind her and do it myself every other day or so during bathtime. A little aquaphor clears her right up. When she complains that it hurts to pee, I give her a little cranberry juice and up the water and cut out the juices (other than the cranberry juice).

Ok.. So I don't want to be the mom that calls the doctor at every little thing.. and this is probably nothing, but I thought I'd post it here before making the call.
One of my twins is seems to be sleeping a lot these last two days. Last night he slept for only about 4 hours (and that may be why he's sleeping during the day). He woke up at about 430am - stayed awake until 7 refused to eat and fell asleep. I woke him up to feed him at 10 - he ate about 2/3's of his bottle... and then fell back to sleep. I woke him again at 1 to feed him again... again, he only ate about 2/3's of his bottle and back to sleep. Same thing at 4. While sleeping he's been crying out occasionally and throwing his head back (reflux- I think).. and then quickly falls back to sleep. He's also getting a little foamy at the mouth between meals.. like he's refluxing.
I just put a call in and am waiting for the doctor to call back..
What do you all think?

Shopping cart abandonment is one of those dreaded issues both online and omnichannel retailers hate. There are many reasons for customers to just leave a webstore after they have picked their products, instead of completing the order.
Some customers find better prices elsewhere, some fail to navigate the store but most (56%) give up on their order when they are presented with unexpected costs.
Data gathered and compiled by the Payroll Blog shows that 68% of all consumers abandon their cart, leading to $18 billion in revenue lost each year but there are ways to avoid this. The infographic below outlines some of the most effective ways to avoid shopping cart abandonment and increase conversions.
The US Census Bureau released data on US retail and it shows ecommerce as a growth driver. Data shows that in the third quarter of 2014 Americans spent $78 billion online, compared to $67.1 billion in the third quarter of 2013.
a. Ecommerce has grown from 5.9% of total retail in 2013 (3rd quarter) to 6.6% this year.
b. Ecommerce sales have went up from $67.1 billion in the 3rd quarter of 2013 to $78 billion in the 3rd quarter of 2014:
c. Both growth and overall sales look great for online retailers but ecommerce really stands out when comparing total retail and ecommerce year on year growth. While total retail struggles with single digit growth, ecommerce is growing at double digits:
To get an overview of how the past two years add up to ecommerce growth in the US, have a look at this chart from Statista, showing yearly growth in ecommerce since 2002 ($72 billion) to 2013 ($322 billion):
Amazon – the biggest online retailer in the world has recently turned 20, and my, has it grown. In these short 20 years, the American wonder has managed to reach more than $70 billion in revenue. In its path to world dominance it began selling everything from books, to ebooks, to apps and recently even groceries.
Under Jeff Bezos' leadership, Amazon went from a small start-up in 1994 to a company challenging the biggest retail companies and even conventional retail itself.
From across the globe, Amazon's hegemony itself has been challenged by AliBaba, a company founded in 1999 by former English teacher Jack Ma. Just like China's economy and ecommerce spending, AliBaba has grown to match its mightiest competitor.
The Chinese company is the product of a splendid growth in China's eCommerce, a market that is expected to reach $655 billion by 2020. Encouraged by these developments and pushed forward by global ambitions, AliBaba will take its IPO to the US, later this year.
Now how would these two companies look side-by-side? The good folks at SmartIntern decided the world was ready for a comparison between the two behemoths. Have a look at the infographic below. The full version opens in a new window.
For most online retailers, conversion rate is THE performance indicator. While many things can be said about conversion rate optimization, a picture is still worth a thousand words. Mixing facts and expertise, digital marketing company DPFOC have put together the infographic below.
Here you will first get a sense of what works and what does not work. You will understand the basics of conversion rate optimization, get tips and tricks, and see what online marketing experts have to say about CRO.
Click the image below to open the full-size infographic, in a new window.
Amazon turns 20 this month. Founded in July 1994 by Jeff Bezos, it has now grown into the largest online retailer.
As a sign of their appreciation, the folks at DPFOC, an online marketing company, created the infographic below. The company has also created an interactive timeline, showing the most important milestones in Amazon's 20 year history. You can enjoy it here.
Two companies have redefined retail in the past 50 years. One is a company founded by Sam Walton in 1962. Mr. Walton opened the first Walmart in Rogers, Arkansas. The other is an Internet company, founded by Jeff Bezos in his small garage in Bellevue, Washington. This second company is Amazon, the largest Internet Retailer.
Both companies went on to be huge successes but in terms of revenue, Walmart has the upper hand. With $469 billion in 2013 revenue and 10700 stores opened worldwide, Walmart beats by far Amazon's $74 billion 2013 revenue. If you look at the raw data Amazon is no match for Walmart. But pull back just a bit and the picture is changes. By comparing the track records for the two companies an interesting insight becomes clear:
The chart above is a comparison in terms of historic revenue. On one hand you have Walmart – the biggest and most successful retailer in recorded history. Employer of 2.2 million people, crusher of markets and destroyer of mom and pop shops. On the other hand you have Amazon, the brave new world of online retail. Both redefined their markets and both are leaders in their respective fields.
But one is unlike the other. See – I couldn't even put together figures from the first years in Walmart's history. Walmart's revenues starts 6 years after the first Walmart opened, in 1968. That's when the company reached a figure ($12.6 million) comparable to Amazon's first year with recorded revenue (1996 – $15.7 million). 17 year after the company launch, Amazon registered $74.4 billion in revenue, while Walmart registered "just" $6.4 billion.
Both the trend and evolution show one thing – Amazon is on its way to become the biggest retailer in the world, a type of retailer the world has never seen. This might probably be a good time to reconsider your stock choices.
Last week we've had a look at world's top 5 ticket sales and event management companies. To put things in perspective, below you'll find an infographic showing some of the facts and figures you might not now about the leaders and challengers in the ticket sales market.

Program Curriculum
Group Meetings
JMELI participants will begin each fall semester with a group meeting. This meeting will provide an opportunity for participants to meet each other and the program administration.
Group meetings will be held approximately every other week, depending on the academic calendar and other seminars or retreats. Meetings will generally be held in a meeting room located in the Memorial Student Center. On occasion, these meetings may be held off-campus or in other meeting locations. Group meetings will generally be a casual where members will be informed of upcoming events and opportunities. This will also be a time for group leaders to talk with participants about current events or other topics of interest.
Group Seminars
Seminars on leadership issues will be presented each month by faculty, staff, and guest facilitators. These seminars will cover many topics including motivation, goals, strategies, communication, problem solving, diversity, and collaboration.
Each fall, the group will have an off-campus, overnight retreat at a local park facility. The retreat will provide opportunities for new students to bond and build relationships with returning JMELI participants. The retreat will provide a time of recreation as well as several organized team-building exercises.
As funds allow, a spring road trip will be planned at a convenient time in the spring. This will be an opportunity for the students to be exposed to leadership in various settings. JMELI students travelled to Washington, D.C., in April 2007 and 2008. In the future, trip opportunities may be available for exploring leadership opportunities in other areas such as business, the arts, media, travel, etc.
Community Service
Emerging Leaders are expected to take a leadership role in service projects for the university and surrounding community. They will also be responsible for coordinating service projects for other Marshall University students not involved in the Institute.

Fable II
Question from subzerodark
How get all emote of fable 2?
Really where all emote books miss 3 in each group
7 years ago
Top Voted Answer
Some expressions are from being famous.
Some expressions are from being really good.
Some expressions are from being really evil.
Some expressions are from the bookstore (not always from purchasing *hint- upstairs -end hint*).
Some expressions are from quests/digging spots/stealing from other people's bookshelves.
Some expressions are from Fable II Pub Games (Spinnerbox's Revenge...).
...and some expressions are from fable2 dot com.
7 years ago
Try searching every shop in every town, there's usually a vendor that will offer expression manuals for both you, and your dog.
You can also get expressions from being evil, and renowned. You'll hear Theresa say "You are now [evil/good/renowed/corrupt/pure] enough to use the [whatever] expression."

If you can tell me which expressions you have, I can tell you where to find the missing ones.

Fire Rescue to Host Swedish Fire & Rescue Students
Date: April 25, 2012
Contact: Steve Hester, Assistant Fire Chief – 727-8070
Great Falls, Montana – This week the City of Great Falls will once again host 37 Swedish DOCTUS Fire and Rescue Students. This is the DOCTUS School's third visit to Great Falls Fire Rescue (GFFR). The relationship has flourished and according to the DOCTUS administrators the City of Great Falls has been a good match and a great learning experience for their students. Additionally this has been an enriching experience for the local firefighters involved in providing training to these students. The students will be in Great Falls, April 24-29, 2012.
The students begin their journey in Kamloops, British Columbia where they will receive wildland training. Afterwards, they head to Great Falls where they will receive four days of fire and emergency training. When they leave Great Falls they continue their training in Minneapolis-Saint Paul.
The objective of the visit is to provide students in the DOCTUS program firsthand experience with North American fire, rescue and EMS systems. This is the student's final year with the school and upon completion they will go on to find jobs in the Swedish medical, law enforcement, rescue and fire career fields.
While in Great Falls, the DOCTUS students receive training from Great Falls firefighters and Montana Air National Guard/Airport firefighters on various rescue and firefighting skills. The Students will receive eight hours of training a day and will also have the opportunity to ride with GFFR at night to experience real world emergencies. The following are the training venues and locations:
- Haz. Materials Emergency -- Training Fire Station 4 (1800 Fox Farm Rd)
- Rope Rescue -- Training Fire Station 1 (105 9th St S)
- Firefighter 101 -- Training Center (1900 9th St S)
- Aircraft Crash Rescue Training -- Great Falls Airport Fire Station
According to Assistant Fire Chief Steve Hester, "We are proud to be involved with the DOCTUS program. Our firefighters have the opportunity to share their knowledge and skills with the students and our staff truly benefits from the teaching and training experience."
For more information about the DOCTUS visit and their training schedule contact Kristal Kuhn with Great Falls Fire Rescue at 727-8070.

Hi, everyone. Just wanted to check in and let everyone know that the blog is taking a few days off while I welcome a new addition to my family. I should be back by the end of the week and will report off Friday's practice.
0 Comments
Congratulations Jonathan!
Congrats! We'll survive with other Cal blogs in your absence. Enjoy the lack of sleep!
Congrats man! Enjoy life, and I think the Golden Bear Nation will manage.
JO, congratulations on the new arrival!
Congratulations from me and all of those who parody me. Make sure he grows up to be a Trojan. Follow a winner.
ok no seriously congratulations, and god forbid he become a u$c fan.
Another Bear is born! Even if it's a girl, I suggest wrapping the child in a blue blanket… You never know when you might run across a rabid Bears fan with a strong distaste of red and it's cousin pink.
How dare you stop covering Cal for something as trivial as a new baby! Congrats JO!
Uh oh. I am a little late on my meds. Looks like one of my dominant personalities already congratulated you – but wait, it mentioned me! I own myself! I own myself! (Does that mean I am the dominant personality?)
I agree with my other personality said – Congratulations! But why settle for being one Trojan when you can be many? Heck, when I am off my antipsychotics I am a one person Trojan Band, Tommy Trojan and his horse! Somebody cue up "Conquest!" for me…
Congrats, JO. I'm sure Call will be able to accomodate a crib in the press box.
CONGRATULATIONS to you and your wife! We hope all is well…
Congratulations, Jon! Unfortunately, we still have a few smart-asses trying to get your goat. I won't mention any names, but it sounds to me like a particular 'moron' needs to lay off a few of his meds. No, wait… on second thought, maybe he should take about TEN times as many! Swallow the entire contents of every bottle, moron! Ya jerk…
Congratulations Jon!!!
congrats JO
Can you settle a matter for me? A friend of mine was hiring different people for a job and this guy who claimed to be a devoted Berkley football fan said that (a)Tedford would have them in the Rose Bowl very soon and (b)the drought of not going to the Rose Bowl since 1980 will have ended. What is more accurate? (a) or (b)?
If JO is on hiatus, let me pose a question that can feed our Bear obsession for the next day or two. For the last two years, Cal has launched web sites for star players to give them Heisman hype (Lynch in '06, Jackson in '07). Who's going to get the web site this year? Or will Cal even have one? (And please do not respond with Mack. A lineman will never win the award, no matter how dominate he is)
Congratulations Jonathan! Sorry, wrong topic for parody.
Congratulations JO!
And for those who want to see moren aka amythicalprogram at his/her/its finest, look no further than this thread:
Tyler, I think there could be a mid-season launch of a site for Best or Riley…assuming they were having a SPECTACULAR season by the Oregon game. Otherwise, no, I don't see it happening for other potential stars out there…they're too young and/or inexperienced.

Frankly the two that have been promoted didn't exactly set the college football world on fire. I don't think either one even got invited to NYC. Sooner or later you have to produce the goods (aka Garrett, Simpson, Allen, White, Palmer, Leinart, Bush) or else the media hype which created turns against you.
Although the web site promotion of Lynch and Jackson may have done nothing to raise their stock, the lack thereof for Arrington hurt him in his 2,000+ season.
Now that I think about it, seeing as I can't even get into USC and I troll at UC Davis, I pray to God that your newborn child is lucky enough to get into the best university on the planet, Cal. I'm ashamed of myself.
I am surprised that daddy hasn't told you the name of Jonathan's newborn even before JO himself knows.
JO, happy parenting.
Wonderful news! Congratulations! I am sure that the little one will learn quickly to exclaim, "GO BEARS!"
Montezuma'a Revenge Says:
April 16th, 2008 at 2:18 pm
I am surprised that daddy hasn't told you the name of Jonathan's newborn even before JO himself knows.
JO, happy parenting.
Montezuma, that was the best line of the day, well done!
JO, really happy for you and your family, you deserve a lot of happiness for all that you've given us here on this blog. Best wishes.
Congrats. I found out today that I am having a daughter in 6 months. My first, soon to be a BEAR, or whatever she wants. The first is an experience. Hope yours is going as interestingly as mine. Best to the wife.
Please tell us you didn't name your new child Amy. I'm not sure anyone here could handle that right now.
Way to go J.O. Okay, you get the big assist and your wife gets the real props. Hope things go well.
Congratulations. It is a very special event.
CAL football can wait (for a few days at least).
Go Bears.
Hey JO,
I noticed that Amy's post are being moderated and delayed a couple of days to make them irrelevant.
thanks for that and the quality blog!

In theory, pretty much everyone claims to like investigative journalism, even government officials. But the reaction is different when reporters expose troubling facts, especially if they make a favored country or politician look bad. Yet, that is what's needed, says Norman Solomon.
Tag Archive for Surveillance State
US Shutting Down a Key News Source
Exclusive: The U.S. intelligence community vacuums up vast amounts of data, but it has one agency, World News Connection, that gives back information to the public – except that the service is getting shut down at year's end, notes ex-intelligence analyst Elizabeth Murray.
NSA Spying's Economic Fallout
Many Americans were shocked at Edward Snowden's leaks about the extent of the U.S. government's electronic surveillance but another downside is that people around the world are now bailing out on U.S.-based Internet companies, as best they can, writes Sander Venema.
Will NSA Reforms Protect Citizens?
Exclusive: Common citizens around the world may be alarmed at the NSA's electronic dragnet prying into their personal lives, but reforms may focus mostly on the privacy of government leaders and corporate executives, writes Andrés Cala.
Clarifying Snowden's 'Freedom'
A common angle from the mainstream U.S. media is that NSA leaker Edward Snowden will regret his asylum in Russia (rather than life in prison in the U.S.). A quote from ex-CIA analyst Ray McGovern was used in support of that theme, but he has asked the New York Times to clarify it.
The Two Types of Spy 'Scandals'
A common complaint from spy agencies is that they get blamed for "intelligence failures" when they miss something and they get attacked for "intelligence abuses" when they go too far with their espionage. The public veers from one type of "scandal" to the next, as ex-CIA analyst Paul R. Pillar describes.
Why Snowden's Passport Matters
President Obama declares his love of "transparency," but has an odd way of showing it, meting out harsh punishments to people who give the public a glimpse into the vast darkness of U.S. secrets, including revoking Edward Snowden's passport to stop him from seeking asylum, an action addressed by Norman Solomon.
Snowden Accepts Whistleblower Award
Though former NSA contractor Edward Snowden has been indicted for leaking secrets about the U.S. government's intrusive surveillance tactics, he was honored by a group of former U.S. intelligence officials as a courageous whistleblower during a Moscow ceremony, reports ex-CIA analyst Ray McGovern who was there.
Surveillance State Takes Offense
President Obama proclaims his love of "transparency" but has an odd idea what the word means. He generally defines it as sharing some information with Congress and the Courts but keeping the public in the dark and punishing those who ask too many questions, as William Blum explains.
Feinstein's Phony Excuse for NSA Spying
After 9/11, the excuse for missing clues was too much data – trying to sip from a fire hose – but with the priority now excusing NSA spying, the metaphor is for more data – you can't find a needle in a haystack without a haystack – a shift ex-FBI agent Coleen Rowley dissects.

Writing and reading are unique skills among humans, and they can be considered the most vigorous exercise of thinking, an exercise that can help us live more creatively, more prosperously, and with deeper wisdom than we could without them. It requires the development of complex problem solving skills that remain viable and useful when transferred to a number of career paths and also in our daily lives. In short, they help us to think about our jobs, about science, math, and technology, about our society and culture, about the world around us, about our own lives and the lives of others, and gives us the tools needed to engage meaningfully in the things that we find important.

It's hard to tell if the recession is over, with the high unemployment rate. But there are strong signs of recovery in the online job market. Annual growth rate is up 21% overall since July, 2009, according to Monster's Employment Index. Here are eight occupations in which employers are hiring - using online ads - at the fastest rate. (Learn more about the compound annual growth rate, in CAGR: The Good, The Bad And The Ugly.)
- Legal - Increase: 29%
The legal profession covers a wide variety of occupations, from attorneys to legal assistants and secretaries. Although there's a strong increase in online job postings, it's important to note that the legal profession is cyclical: in a recession, corporations cut back their legal staff to contain costs. This upswing in hiring is a good sign that business is getting better - good news for all of us. Unless of, course, the largest increase in demand for lawyers is bankruptcy law. (Get some background info, in How To Pick The Right Lawyer.)
- Business and Financial Operations - Increase: 28%
Business and financial professionals are the auditors and analysts of the business world: the guys who come in to make sure companies run most efficiently and in compliance with ever more complicated laws. It's no surprise this sector is seeing an increase in online hiring; the Department of Labor expects a 22% increase in employment for auditors and accountants, and a 24% increase for management analysts. (Learn to get the most out of your schooling, in 2 Years Of Education, A Lifetime Of Success.)
- Transportation and Material Moving - Increase: 27%
It's a basic principle: if you have material or goods, they need to be moved - which is where America's material movers come in. Wholesale and retail make up the largest part of this industry, with manufacturing and warehousing coming in second. Why the increase in this sector? A large portion of experienced material movers is coming up on retirement, leaving an employment gap - a great opportunity for those looking to make a start in this industry.
- Arts, Design, Entertainment, Sports, and Media - Increase: 25%
The arts and related job sectors are usually hardest hit in a recession, which is why we may be seeing an upswing in hiring after it froze in 2009. Look for increased hiring in graphic and web design, marketing and public relations, as companies are looking to grow business using online media and new technology. (Learn to get the most from your freelance status, in 10 Tax Benefits For The Self-Employed.)
- Architecture and Engineering - Increase: 23%
As our population grows, so does our need for buildings to live, work and shop in, which is why we need more architects. Although outsourcing of basic architectural design overseas hurts employment, American jobs in architecture and engineering are forecasted to grow by 16% over the next eight years. Think green, creative and innovative if this is your industry, and the jobs will follow. (Learn more about outsourcing, in The Globalization Debate.)
- Production - Increase: 22%
Production is another sector, like transportation and material moving, that's seeing growth because such a large number of experienced workers are due to retire. The baby boomer production employees will need to be replaced by a younger work force - a great opportunity for those looking to break into this sector. Look for openings in power and energy plant operations in particular. (Find out more, in Trust In Utilities.)
- Construction and Extraction - Increase: 22%
Construction was one of the hardest-hit industries last year, leaving many skilled laborers out of a job. This year is bringing jobs to this sector again, with fast growth expected for those with specialized skills, and those willing to go where the work is. Things are also looking up for construction inspectors, particularly those who have specialized experience (like an engineering background), and the proper licensing.
- Healthcare Support - Increase: 20%
The retiring baby boomer generation is moving much of the job market - but none as significantly as the healthcare support sector. The Department of Labor expects this profession to grow a whopping 50% by 2018, fueled by America's aging population that will need more in-home healthcare and other support services. Although pay isn't high at an average of about $11 an hour, healthcare support is a great entry-level field with an even better job security. (Read more, in Boomers: Twisting The Retirement Mindset.)
The Bottom Line
Online job postings have increased in almost every sector according to Monster's Employment Index, with computer, education and office and administrative jobs also seeing double-digit percentage growth. So what does this mean for our economy? What's important to note about Monster's numbers is that mining, manufacturing and transportation and warehousing are the industries showing the largest growth - with mining seeing an impressive 53% gain since 2009. Any economic analyst will tell you this means an increase in production, a possible early indicator of economic recovery. Good news, even if you're not looking for a job.

How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand in the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers! But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and in His law he meditates day and night. He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in its season and its leaf does not wither; and in whatever he does, he prospers.
Psalm 1:1-3
God's covenant people aren't accidental sprouts, but planted trees. Planting means purpose. The spot is chosen carefully, near a stream. The waters' edge is where we grow best. You may have been born in adversity to learn how to overcome. But always the waters are nearby. There is a place where you best hear and respond to the Holy Spirit. God will plant you there. Your purpose is to bear fruit—the fruit of the Kingdom harvest, the fruit of repentance, and the fruit of the Spirit. But no water, no fruit. God knows where to plant you. Receive your "place" with gladness.

Hi all,
I will be selling my husqvarna optima 620 but I have no clue about what price to market it at. I am based in New Zealand, and only one has ever sold on our version of eBay and the bidding information is long gone. Any idea what this machine would vaguely be worth second hand and in good condition or know how I can work this out? -- Edited on 8/17/13 7:38 AM --
Bump :)
Have you thought about keeping it as a backup machine. Many of us here have...ahem...more than...ahem...one machine.
Hehehe! Yes I have considered it - but I promised my husband I would sell it to recoup some costs of the new machine ;). One income family with small kids and all ;)
Do you have a dealer that sells used machines that he would have taken in as a trade in ? I would check that & then price yours a bit lower as the dealer would have gone over it & oiled & tune up etc. Hey maybe your dealer would take it on as trade for the new Janome? Would not hurt to ask.
------The Girls... Baby & Mittee girl >^,,^<
Here comes the big 60! OH MY!
The sewing workers are:
Hello Kitty Kate (green), Hello Kitty Valerie (computerized), Dottie Kenmore, Bubba Kenmore the traveler,has case does travel.
Be still and Know that I AM God +
Thank you - I will ask the janome people for sure I sounded out the bernina/bernette people who didn't sound that keen... But I should definitely double check through both dealers :)
Nothing currently on that model in US Ebay either. Found 2 similiar at $135 and $150 USD.
Heres one on Ebay Germany:
Its going for 198 EUR ($264 USD)
------sewing brings joy and meaning to my life...
Awesome! That's very helpful thank you :)

How has having a total hip replacement affected your riding?
I have had one hip replaced
I have had both hips replaced
Since my replacement(s) I ride further & faster
Since my replacement(s) I ride further but slower
Since my replacement(s) I ride shorter distances but faster
Since my replacement(s) I ride shorter distances & slower
I ride more than 60 miles (100k) weekly
I ride less than 60 miles (100k) weekly
How has having a total hip replacement affected your riding?
seems you're on your own there....
"Everybody knows that you love me baby; everybody knows that you really do; everybody knows that you've been faithful, give or take a night or two; and everybody knows that you've been discreet, but there were so many people you just had to meet; without your clothes; everybody knows." Leonard Cohen
I'm curious, though. I guy I work with has had one hip replaced and will have to have the other replaced, too. TW, have you had a hip replaced? If so, how has it affected your cycling?
You're east of East St. Louis
And the wind is making speeches.
Tom here. Yeah, I have had both hips done. Left one in 93, and right April 7 this year. After my left (done on Jan 7 1993) that summer I toured around the Olympic peninsula in Wash. state, and then later did the icefields parkway (banff to Jasper). In the years since, I have done many 3-20 day tours, the longest being a fully loaded self supported camping tour from Hope B.C. to banff to Jasper to Kamloops B.C. with a few rest days thrown in along the way. The hip has held up fantastically. I have also taken up randonneuring and have done 5 200's, 2 300's, and one 400 so far. If you are not familiar with randonneuring, check out this site www.randonneurs.bc.ca/ for loads of info. This fall my goal is to be recovered enough to do the season end 200k.
Also, since my 93 operation, I have commuted to work approx. 100 days/year (40k round trip)
I guess the short answer to your question is that having my hip replaced has improved my cycling.
Cheers, Tom
Thanks for the information. My coworker had found that walking was just too painful. He'll be encouraged to hear how well your replacements are holding up. I've been lucky to so far avoid joint damage. All my replacement parts are in my head.
You're east of East St. Louis
And the wind is making speeches.
What other sports/activity forum would anyone even consider bring up the POLL of hip replacement and cycling???
KUDO's to everyone on the forum and to KWCLEMENTS for asking the question!!!
I can't ride and Frown!

Both teams are coming off upset wins over No. 7 Adrian, which has since dropped to No. 25. This is the first game where one team can take control of the MIAA race. The Flying Dutchmen have not lost a league road game in Matt Neil's tenure, and this will be the toughest one yet.
2. OK Conference basketball
Tuesday and Friday
It seems like forever, but the OK Conference finally is going to tip off league play this week. The redesigned divisions have fewer teams in them, so hence the need for not as many league games. Highlights include the OK Red's West Ottawa traveling to Grandville on Tuesday and unbeaten East Kentwood on Friday and the OK Green's Hamilton-Holland on Tuesday and Holland Christian-Zeeland West on Friday.
3. Hope-Calvin swim
1 p.m. Saturday at Calvin
The Hope-Calvin rivalry returns to the pool as the Hope College men's and women's swimming and diving teams travel to Calvin College for an MIAA dual meet. See how Hope freshman Klare Northuis (Holland) fares against some of Calvin's top swimmers in what should be a closer girls meet. The diving head-to-head battle between Calvin's Samantha Klaasen and Hope's Kyleigh Sheldon also should be a dandy. Both are former MIAA champions. In the men's race, Josh Grabijas leads Hope's distance attack against the Knights.
4. West Ottawa invitational
9 a.m. Saturday
The West Ottawa wrestling team hosts its annual invitational Saturday. Holland and Zeeland West are among the local teams set to grapple the Panthers. West Ottawa has dealt with injuries, but heavyweight Miguel Correa has helped them wrestle strong. He will be the favorite to win at 285.
5. Calvary at Black River hoops
5:30 p.m. Friday
The Holland Calvary-Black River reached another level last week at Calvary's Holiday Tournament. The Calvary girls knocked off Black River in overtime behind its 1-2 punch of Kierstin Davis and Kiersten Dogger. The Crusaders avenged their losses to the River Rats last season and will look to build a winning streak. Meanwhile, the boys met in the consolation game and it was another close one with the Crusaders again coming out on top. The boys tip off at 7 p.m. With the games at Black River, the River Rats are looking to take back the rivalry. Should be an intriguing evening.
