I just received 2 new EA50 bars from Jenson.
One has the nice deep cable grooves front and back, just like it's supposed to.
The other one has just a line, not even 1/2mm deep, where the grooves are supposed to be.
It pisses me off to go through the hassle of communicating with them (the last time took 8 days to get an answer) packaging up and returning and waiting, not to mention what additional expense they might try to stick me with.
Sooooo . . . how useful (necessary) are the cable grooves? All my previous bars have had them, so I have no way of comparing.
I'll be using road brake levers and bar end shifters on these bars.
Any chance that with proper friction tape I don't even need the grooves? Will the cables stay put without them? Or should I bite the bullet and visit hassle city again.

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) -- The cost of eating healthy can add up for East Tennessee families, but an expert has advice for saving money and keeping your family healthy.
Researchers at the University of Washington found the new food pyramid, called "My Plate", could add hundreds of more dollars to a person's annual grocery bill.
The Chief Dietician at the Wellness Center at Dowell Springs's says it doesn't have to. "The misconception that it could be more expensive is because most American's diets tend to be extremely high in refined grain," Chief Dieteician Casey Peer says.
Replacing those items with fresh fruit and veggies can cost more, but it's always cheaper than your fast food favorites.
"You're going to get more meals out of that grocery trip, so in the long run the cost is much less if you are preparing meals more from home," Peer tells us. "You can shop in the frozen section or go to your local produce farmer's markets." Canned vegetables can save money too.
To get started, Peer says take baby steps, "Pick one thing to work with first. You don't have to make it overly complicated."

Video Review: Lois Ehlert's 'The Scraps Book'
Milwaukee artist Lois Ehlert, famous for her many colorful picture books including "Color Zoo" and "Eating the Alphabet," has published a new book that takes children and other readers inside her studio and explains how she works.
Like her other books, "The Scraps Book" (Beach Lane Books, $17.99) is told through collages. She remembers how her parents, who liked to sew and do woodworking, encouraged her to make things. She often makes her collages through objects found in nature and everyday things around her. She also has some collections for inspiration and other uses, such as a collection of ice fishing decoys. »Read Full Article

Many years ago, a handshake between two people was all that was needed to guarantee that any type of agreement between the two would be honored.
Today, with all our complex laws, an agreement of any type between two or more people must be written down in detail and signed by all those involved. A signature was a statement that you would honor the agreement you signed.
That signature has now lost its value. If someone signs your name to an agreement - as in identity theft - and does not honor was what signed, the law comes after you for payment.
Your signature has become worthless when anyone may use it and you are held responsible, even when it has been proved to be forged.

Isreal warned of war crime chargesComment on this story
Ramallah, West Bank -
A senior Palestinian official is warning that the West Bank government will pursue war crime charges against Israel if it doesn't stop settlement construction.
Israel announced a major settlement construction push after the U.N. General Assembly recognized a de facto Palestinian state.
Palestinian official Nabil Shaath said late Monday that "many countries" have urged the Palestinian Authority not to use its new status to seek war crimes charges against Israel at the International Criminal Court, a U.N. body.
Shaath says that "by continuing these war crimes of settlement activities" on occupied territories, Israel is "pushing and forcing us to go to the ICC."
Israel has defied calls to rescind its construction plans. - Sapa-AP

Thirty-five years later
April 23, 2009
By Ms. Rachael Tolliver (TRADOC)
Story Highlights
- 1974 tornado outbreak; Thank the people interviewed for the story
- Learned about the earthquake that happened at the same time;
- Learned about Fort Knox's immediate response to the crisis of a neighboring community; installation's receipical agreement
- Military installation and local communities help each other in times of crisis, helps when everyone involved is prepared
I wasn't very old in April of 1974, but it made a heck-of-an impression on me. That was the year I added the word "tornado" to my vocabulary.
It is remembered as "the year of the great tornado outbreak" because of the 148 tornados that were spawned in 13 states over a 16 hour period. I was too young to understand anything but, "hide from the wind."
We had family and friends throughout Kentucky and in the Louisville communities of Indian Hills, Crescent Hill, and Cherokee Park-areas that were virtually demolished by an F4 tornado. The storms extended east into other parts of the state spawning additional tornados.
While researching the emergency preparation story on page three, I interviewed several people who work on Fort Knox and who lived in Brandenburg at the time of an F5 tornado-which almost wiped the city of the map. Many of them had stories they didn't consider to be interesting, and they didn't want me to use their names. But to me, these were great stories from their own memories of what they did experience, how they handled it, what they learned, and what they do to prepare for severe weather events today.
I thank each of them for taking the time to talk with me-even those who didn't want to be quoted, yet still told interesting stories.
I also found on NOAAs Web site (www.crh.noaa.gov) that two hours after the tornado Louisville experienced an earthquake that registered at 4.7 on the Richter scale. It was centered 40 miles northeast of Evansville and ended a day that helped to locally define the phrase "emergency preparation."
Something else I learned was of the involvement of Fort Knox during the after-effects of Brandenburg's crisis.
The only doctor's office in the town at the time, Naser and Cole, wrote a type of after-action-review in which they talked about the aid provided by the installation. It appeared in the Kentucky Medical Association Journal, and was written largely to share their experiences and thoughts with other physicians located in small rural communities with limited medical facilities, who may be presented with similar mass casualty situations. (visit www.april31974.com/more_tornado_stories.htm to read "How The Clinic Functioned After The Tornado" by the doctors who wrote the report.)
The two physicians' wrote that 30 minutes after the tornado, they were joined by Capt. Gary Klipple, M. D., Chief of Emergency Room Services, Ireland Army Hospital, and several medics. They arrived via helicopter, and brought extra medical supplies.
Then, they mentioned helicopter evacuation-the severely injured were flown to post, and others were transported to Knox and to Elizabethtown via ambulance.
And lastly, they write that by night fall the Army had guards posted around the clinic and other hard-hit areas. Emergency medical services were moved to a local school where they said the Army maintained emergency facilities with everything from staff and supplies to communications.
They ended their report with suggestions for small community medical facilities in disaster situations, and a word of appreciation and thanks to the Army.
I found this interesting not because the Knox personnel were on hand almost immediately, but because it goes to show that the installations receipical agreement to help local communities in case of emergency or disaster goes back so far.
David Fusselman, an Emergency Management Operations Specialist here on post, said that Knox has more than a dozen Memorandums of Agreement and Understanding with surrounding counties and cities for emergency medical service, fire and HAZMAT.
That means that in case of an emergency on post, we have only to call our neighbors for help. And they have only to call us.
With that in mind, when the emergency sirens around post go off, or the exterior voice announcing system or "Giant Voice" screams "Danger Will Robinson, Danger!" it's not just the people who live and work within the perimeter of post that need to pay attention. And when we speak of "Get a Kit, Make a Plan, and Be Informed" we aren't just talking about military personnel.
There are countless emergency situations that can arise, and when one community is called to help another the best possible scenario is that everyone involved took the time to be prepared.

If you live in the United Kingdom, then yesterday marked your first opportunity to get your hands on Tiger
Telematics' new handheld gaming/multimedia platform, the Gizmondo. That is, assuming that your hands weren't
already thoroughly occupied with a brand spankin' new Nintendo DS, which not only launched just eight days eariler, but
also broke sales records across the board.
Poor timing aside, functionality-wise the Gizmondo seems more akin to the N-Gage rather than the DS. Aside from the requisite gaming fuctionality, the Gizmondo also features music and movie capability, as well as an integrated digital camera, GPS navigation, and the ability to wirelessly send messages, audio, and video clips over the Gizmondo's GPRS network. So far the lineup of games seems a bit lackluster, but if the N-Gage is any idication, that may improve as the system gains longevity. Unfortunately, with the imminent North American launch of the PSP just days away, how will Tiger's spunky handheld hold up? Is the Gizmondo more likely to compete with the N-Gage than anything else, and are its camera and GPS functions a suitable tradeoff for the N-Gage's cellphone capabilities?

Our school system is to cheap to provide enough computers to use the electronic textbooks and teaching materials they have committed to using. So they now encourage the students to byod (bring your own device). I think someone screwed up on the book negations, so last year devices like iPads and iPods were banned from schools below the high school level to practically begging students to bring their own. So yeah, I could see this becoming popular in our district.

Ain't nothing going to stop the DNC from getting a shellacking come November.
yeah Romney is going to win in a landslide .... er, wait
The economy is so much better in a number of ways. The 3rd quarter is expected to be even "dramatically better" --an example is U.S. steel making.
Consumer confidence jumped 90.9 in July--and consumers are more confident that they have been in 7 years. SEVEN YEARS. This is almost as long as President Obama has been in office.
Home sales are at a sustainable level, existing home sales rose to an 8 month high in June.
Non-farm work has aided unemployment in many states.
The business community is optimistic that people are spending more on leisure, another sign of a strong economy.
Health markets are booming as a result of the Affordable Care Act. The president's reforms are leading to considerable coverage for people who could not previously afford it. Obamacare is popular and working.
Federal regulators are working well. JP Morgan is paying $650,000 in overcharges since filing inaccurate reports on trading positions of some of its large customers since 2012, and certified that it has improved its procedures for filing reports.
We have added more jobs this past 6 months than in the last 20 years...
Oh yeah, but.... the stupid Republican Party wants to sue the president, who is presiding over this great recovery. Instead of the stupidity of suing the president, Republicans should be closing obvious loopholes that let firms reincorporate overseas while all their business stays in the U.S. This is nuts in this modern era.
Economic reality can not be disguised by overly optimistic assumptions and massaged stats coming out of a sycophantic BEA. If things are so wonderful how is the country to experience real growth with a shrinking consumer money supply while simultaneously being battered by inflation? That would be more realistic inflation stats as were measured using 1980 methods. In spite of worthless GDP headline, I do not see a recovery in the making.
funny. 8:07 ..... Typical hater , defeated and frustrated by the success of the Obama economic policies.
Best president since FDR.
You ought to be on stage . . . there's one leaving in ten minutes.
The economy was surging under Bush until the final midterms under his presidency. Housing bubble that time, stock market bubble this time.

COSTA MESA – With the CIF playoffs approaching, the Laguna Beach girls tennis team isn't slowing down.
Laguna Beach defeated Orange Coast League opponent Estancia, 14-4, on the road Tuesday. The Breakers swept all nine doubles sets in a victory that brought them one step closer to locking up the league title.
With a 7-0 league record with three matches left, the Breakers (11-4 overall) can control their own destiny.
Laguna Beach coach Don Davis said one of the bright spots of the match was the return of junior Bailey Jaeger, who had missed the past three weeks with an injury. Jaeger and her doubles partner, sophomore Natasha Keces, won two sets, 6-1, 6-2.
This was the first time Jaeger and Keces played together this season, but it won't be their last.
"Today was honestly just lucky, and my partner and I worked well together," Jaeger said. "I think, also, there's a mentality that coming back I want to come back strong and end the season strong."
Two junior varsity players who were called up recently had a good day. Sophomores Brigette Thomas and Cameron Anderson played in doubles and won their only set.
"(They) subbed in, and they beat Estancia's No. 1 team, 6-0, so that was a significant showing," Davis said.
Junior Maddy Loomis and senior Sarah Nederlander also had a strong doubles performance, winning both of their sets, 6-2, 6-0. Senior Stephanie Tat and freshman Malia Helms also won two doubles sets, 6-1, 6-1.
"It's a lot of fun," Nederlander said. "Our team recently has had a lot more team spirit, so it's fun when you get to cheer on your teammates, especially because tennis is such an individual sport."
Though Laguna Beach struggled in singles, it still pulled out five sets to four with strong performances from sophomore Ashley Fair and junior Kira Hamilton, who each won two sets.
Fair didn't drop a game in her two wins. Hamilton won her sets, 6-1, 6-0.
Davis said the Breakers have their doubles teams set and are ready for CIF playoffs in early November.
"We're kind of getting our team geared up for the end of the season, and the pieces are kind of coming together," Davis said.
The Breakers will host Calvary Chapel of Santa Ana in league match at 3 p.m. today.
Laguna Beach posted a 14-4 win over Calvary Chapel when the teams met Oct. 1.

James W. Quinn, an accomplished trial lawyer, co-chairs Weil Gotshal's 500-lawyer global Litigation practice.
Editor: What is the firm's attitude with respect to hourly rates?
Quinn: In the wake of the financial crisis, the world has changed significantly. Consequently, there are enormous pressures on our clients to hold down litigation costs, and we are trying to be flexible and receptive to that. We are willing to talk about a variety of different alternate fee arrangements that range from blended rates to volume discounts for very significant volume.
Frankly, we prefer not simply to discount. We have had arrangements with flat fees for particular projects. Among other things, we have entered into deals where we do offer certain discounts if there is an opportunity to be awarded bonuses based on outcome. There are now a wide variety of alternative fee arrangements that we have entered into, some successfully and some less successfully. I should add that there are certain kinds of work, say, representing a debtor in a typical bankruptcy case, that typically have to be done on a pure hourly rate. Similarly, we are not going to discount trial work unless there is a significant bonus involved. We are unlikely to be very flexible on anything that we consider to be truly cutting edge. It really is a supply and demand issue.
Editor: Are clients involved in the budget process?
Quinn: Yes. We do that on a regular basis. They often want budgets, and we are sure to update them periodically. If we do give a fee estimate at the beginning of the engagement, we examine the estimate on a rolling basis and make changes when necessary. A basic rule governing how we operate is very simple: "no surprises." Clients hate surprises, especially with regard to fees. If they understand what you are doing, why you are doing it and you involve them in the process, you avoid surprises and tend to avoid fee friction.
Editor: To what extent do you encourage mediation and exploration of settlement?
Quinn: I think that now, particularly in major cases, we generally do encourage mediation. In fact, we often suggest it early on to avoid running up significant litigation costs. Early exploration of settlement is often the best way to save litigation costs. But, there are certain kinds of cases that, for whatever reason, go to trial. For example, I just litigated a three month trial because of the issues involved, and we are awaiting the verdict. The allegations related to fraud, and our public company client was not going to settle. So, not all cases can settle; sometimes they must go to trial.
Editor: Do you use client satisfaction surveys?
Quinn: We have used client's satisfaction surveys, and we find them useful. Among the most interesting feedbacks we've received recently from a satisfaction survey was an overwhelming desire on the part of clients to get to know and work directly with our associates. The sophisticated clients understand that the associates are the ones doing a lot of the work. They want to know who they are, meet them and judge their competence for themselves.
We recently began to focus more and more on doing just that so that the associates are not just faceless names on a billing sheet; we want our clients to know them. Clients know they are getting value added because these associates are really good and make extraordinary contributions to the final outcome. It means a lot for the client to get a chance to interact and actually see the people who are doing the work, particularly now where you have very sophisticated inside lawyers who might otherwise feel that they are lost in the workings of a complex and large organizations like ours.
Editor: To what extent does the firm encourage the client to do more work in-house?
Quinn: What we found in the last few years, particularly with a number of our large Fortune 100 companies, is that we really do partner with them. We often have inside lawyers working directly on teams with our lawyers on a variety of different things. For example, I had a jury trial not long ago where one of the inside lawyers was at the table with us as part of the trial team and both put on and cross examined trial witnesses. We find that partnering with the inside lawyers is something that is very valuable, and you develop terrific relationships. They get to see us, and they have a better sense of what we are doing, and the value that we are adding. They are less likely to be concerned about the litigation costs when they know what is actually happened. They see that it is not a lot of busy work. It is real work that is contributing to a favorable outcome.
Editor: How does the firm assure continuity of experience and knowledge of the client's organization and needs?
Quinn: We develop teams of lawyers, whether they are partners or associates, who work with particular clients and get to know the client's business. Having a level of continuity is something that the clients appreciate. They want to have associates or younger partners they like work on their matters so that through continuity of experience these attorneys will learn not only about the client's business, but also come to know and be accepted by its managers. They are not reinventing the wheel each time that the client sends them a matter because they understand the complexity of the company, such as a health organization in today's regulatory climate. We want our attorneys to understand not just the client's organization, but what its goals are and how they want to achieve them. Having client teams with continuity of experience with a particular client is also an advantage in controlling litigation costs.
Editor: Would you like to comment on e-discovery?
Quinn: The ideas expressed by Judge Holderman in this issue of your publication make a lot of sense to me. People should be forced at the beginning of the case to focus on e-discovery and determine what it is that they actually need. The parties should look at the case and determine what the case is worth. Is it worth a million, ten million, or a hundred million? It's absurd to force a company to spend five million dollars on e-discovery on a million dollar case. It should be determined proportionately. Judges, magistrates and the parties have to recognize that the costs are such that somebody has to be looking at this early on in the matter to avoid this type of problem.
It'll be interesting to see how it plays out. My initial reaction is that it certainly makes sense to get the facts on which the plaintiff bases its case before hold orders, the scope of discovery and everything else gets totally out of hand. It is important that somebody, either the magistrate or the judge, makes a decision about how much of this stuff is actually going to be done. That seems to be the essence of the Seventh Circuit's Pilot Program.
Editor: It will take some time to get rules in place that will put reasonable limits on the scope of e-discovery, but what is the firm doing now to assist its clients to better control e-discovery costs?
Quinn: We have preferred e-discovery providers that we very carefully interview to ensure that we've actually negotiated rates with them that are well below market. We've told them, based on our experience with them, that we're willing to recommend them to a client, but they need to give us reduced rates, which of course is a saving to the client. In addition we have, like many other firms, a team of specialists who focus on e-discovery if its significant in a case. Obviously, it's not significant in all cases, but it certainly is in a lot of major commercial disputes, such as antitrust and securities matters. We typically have at least one lawyer very experienced in e-discovery on most major matters in which there is lot of e-discovery.
Editor: Are you folks involved, in any way, in any of the efforts to eliminate e-discovery abuses? It's not only the Seventh Circuit, but the rule revision proposals by the American College of Trial Lawyers (ACTL) and the Institute for the Advancement of the American Legal System (IAALS) are also of great importance.
Quinn: I'm familiar with the American College rules proposal because one of my colleagues is working on that. I guess that from what I have said earlier in this interview that our firm's focus has always been on benefiting our clients and partnering with them on policy issues of importance to them like those being considered by the Seventh Circuit and by the American College.
Over the last year, we have had a number of seminars for clients. For example, based on the experience that we've had, we take clients who may be less sophisticated or haven't gone through all the pitfalls yet, and we've held seminars for them. I'm pleased to say that our seminars have gotten a lot of favorable feedback. In addition, my partner David Lender co-authored the leading treatise on e-discovery.
Editor: In addition to e-discovery have you used other technologies to control litigation cost?
Quinn: One of the things that we have done is to create an in-house graphics group for trials and hearings. They do all the in-court graphics rather than our going outside and paying extraordinary fees. We use our own terrifically talented people, and they are as good as or better than anything you get outside. That can save a client an enormous amount of money.

Remember Me
There's a warming charm to The Brakes from the moment they fire it up. It happens at their shows, which practically leap into your arms and plant one on you, and it happens immediately on Tale of Two Cities (Hyena). Though a deceased pony I've whipped in print for years, it bears repeating in this instance: if popular radio were actually based on talent, sheer appeal and quality songwriting then The Brakes would already be massive. Of course, today's marketing driven mentality slants things far too heavily towards economic concerns, leaving art lying battered on the side of the highway. Luckily, The Brakes picked her up, giving her their coats and last cigarettes like decent lads should, and wooed this 12-pack of delights out of her.
Everything about them, from the massively appealing tunes to the solidity & flow of their playing to the butterscotch trip of lead singer Zach Djanikian's tongue, carries the precocious creativity of young Steve Winwood, Paul McCartney and others who rose to mainstream fame in the '60s without sacrificing sophistication in their music to do so. Recorded during a two-month joint residency in NYC and Philadelphia, Tale cherry picks the ripest fruit from the run, a successful gambit that shows off both their writing chops and live prowess not unlike Assembly of Dust's fabulous The Honest Hour.
Stupidly catchy track after track, it's the final trio – "Song of Imponderables," "Who Am I To Be" and "Sister Mary" – that cement how fundamentally good this band is. Quiet numbers today tend to still rely on bombastic bursts or pushy production to get their point across, but "Imponderables" embraces a potent hush, benefiting from their collective restraint, rising only as much as they need to on the chorus, which consistently gives me a shiver with it's simple, true spirit and delivery ("There were no stars to steer our course/ No bell to toll the hour"). "Who Am I To Be" is an incantation, a sect-less prayer that yearns in words, music and tone:
Please tell me something I don't know
Please, give me something that will grow
Who am I to be?
Tell me who am I to be
A distant lover or your family
Tell me who am I to be
A deep, fine soul rises on this cut, the eloquent guitars and burbling tom-toms capturing in mood what the lyrics suggest, a kind of interlocking intelligence that informs the entire record. The overlap of their efforts layers in pleasures that surface with repeat listens, so you'll be near powerless to stop at one spin as "Sister Mary" – a smoky grower in the vein of The Black Crowes "Seeing Things," slide swoon encircled with barbed wire – is given the neat sendoff, "I'll be just fine/ My world is filled with possibility/ You can go on, but I'll take my time." This line serves as a statement of purpose for The Brakes. They seem dedicated to the music far more than the cult of personality or dumb money chasing antics of many bands out there, especially one with this much potential mass appeal. Their obvious dedication to craft is a joy, and they've made an absolutely wonderful slab this time out.

good article, good album :)
Nice, DC, very nice indeed. Love these guys. On the Solar Stage on Friday - Hope their set lasts past 7 p.m., so I can catch all of AOD on the Main Stage and then catch the end of the Brakes set. Excellent review. Will look for this myself.
such a beautifully written review for an equally beautiful album. check it out asap if you haven't already.
Been loving the album for months now, cant take it out of my cd player!
amazing album! great article for a very solid band. the brakes are what's missing these days in modern music. check out this album, and you won't be disappointed! additionally, some might say it would be a sin to miss their live shows--i'm certainly one of these people.
Tale of Two Cities is an unbelievable album. I find myself listening to it over and over again--and liking it more and more each time! The Brakes are truly a breath of fresh air in today's music scene and I only hope more people have the opportunity to discover them and appreciate how awesome they are.

and quality songwriting then The Brakes would already be massive."
Tale of Two Cities is an amazing album that not just myself but my whole family enjoys!!! Their lyrics are just as beautiful as their sound, and they are such a talented group on and off stage!!! You have to make it a point to check out one of their Shows...YoU won't be disappointed!
I first saw The Brakes a couple weeks back in Camden NJ at The WXPN Exponential Music Festival. Very impressed with their performance, sound and lyrics. Truly a breath of fresh air in today's music scene. I bought the CD, met the guys in the "meet and greet" tent and got my CD signed by them. Real down to earth dudes. I can't stop listening to it. It just gets better and better. Planning a trip to Bridgeport CT on Aug.1 to see them at Gathering of the Vibes Festival. Can't wait for the CD.
I love this album!! awesome review as well.. be sure to pick up a copy!!
The Brakes are a great band. Great live show - if they come around your area, GO.
Nice review Dennis!
I've been following the evolution of this band for several years now. I can say that through my experience, Tale of Two Cities is the culmination of years of honing a special sound that The Brakes can call their own. It's a real shame they had to whittle it down to twelve tracks. Some of the stuff left off of the CD is incredible as well. If only some influential ears could actually HEAR them... I have no doubt that they will reach lofty heights in the music industry. Take a listen to this CD and you'll be hooked too. Better yet, catch their live show wherever you can. This is one of this bands that you may be saying some day... I saw them when... And while we're at it, let's all raise a glass to Josh Sack, The Brakes late drummer, whose work will always shine on Tale of Two Cities.
Good Review. The Brakes have been playing some really quality shows so far this summer. Not so numerous but definately high quality. From the Kimmel Center to the XPN Festival to the performance in Gorgas Park last week, The Brakes seem so comfortable and are performing at a very high level. Every show I go to people are not expecting to hear such good music from a bunch of young musicians but they always deliver. The Takeover...coming soon!

The good people at Groupon wanted to get in on President's Day this year, so they decided to give people $10 off on purchases of $40 or more.
In a press release on Friday, they wrote, quote, "The $10 bill, as everyone knows, features President ALEXANDER HAMILTON, undeniably one of our greatest presidents and most widely recognized for establishing the country's financial system."
The only problem is, he was NEVER PRESIDENT. He WAS one of the primary forces in establishing our financial system, but it's because he was the first U.S. Secretary of the Treasury.
Groupon based their President's Day sale around honoring "former president" Alexander Hamilton, who was never president. And apparently, when someone wrote to them to point that out, instead of admitting their mistake, Groupon doubled down.
Their response to being called out on mistaking Hamilton for a former president was, quote, "We respect everyone's beliefs. You're certainly entitled to your opinion."

Providers and health insurers will continue to consolidate to enable themselves to operate more efficiently in a fee-for-service world. However, some nongovernmental health insurers (e.g., Blue Cross in Massachusetts, with its Alternative Quality Contract) are working with some of these consolidated provider systems (e.g., Atrius Health, Caritas Christi) to create financial incentives for higher quality and more cost-effective care. There are other efforts planned, or under way, by governmental and non-governmental health insurers, to control the cost, and improve the quality, of healthcare services, such as pay-for-performance standards, bundled payments, and capitation.
These are important experiments that could use the resources and economies of scale of large provider systems to transform the delivery, and financing, of healthcare, and, ultimately, to make access to health insurance for the uninsured more affordable. The consolidated provider systems have the capacity, and a wary willingness, to be partners in these efforts.
The federal government could powerfully support these efforts by subsidizing access to healthcare insurance for the poor, and authorizing Medicare and Medicaid payment reform efforts that reward providers based on the quality and cost-effectiveness of care provided to patients. Or the federal government could, as it did in the 1990s, stand aside (other than ultimately imposing draconian, deficit-driven Medicare and Medicaid rate cuts), and let the fee-for-service arms race continue, leading to the continuation of spiraling healthcare costs with no significant improvements in quality or access. We hope for the former, while fearing the latter.

I just got an email from Judith at Josephine's Dry Goods (sells the best fabric in Portland) saying she is retiring and closing the store the end of September. While I could not afford a lot of the fabric, it has been wonderful to drool over Josephine's fabrics.
Josephine's, we will miss you.
Visited several years ago when ASG Conference was in Portland. What struck me most were the clothing samples sewn from Vogue patterns. More typical in US are the more "artsy/quilty/ embroidered independent patterns shown by most machine dealers who also sell fabric. Of course, the fabrics were current as well.
She ran a true fabric store. Glad I still have several "souvenirs"!
When I lived in MT I would make trips to Portland for stuff. Loved Josephines- such good service. They even offered to help me shop over the phone and UPS it out to me. That will be one sorely missed business.
------sewing brings joy and meaning to my life...
Really sad news!! My daughter lives in Portland and Josephine's was a destination on almost every visit. We even took the Party Dress class Mary Adams did there. I loved that store. Just to see all that beautiful fabric was a treat. Thanks for all the good memories and good wishes to all the knowledgeable and helpful staff.
Just recieved an email Josephines is reopening in SE Portland under new ownership. YEA!
Oh details please.
There are a few detail on their web page ...
Such good news, that someone took the business over. In Kansas City the fabric store (Kaplans) on the plaza closed early this year. They would have sold but no one stepped up to buy it.
I was just reading on a thread about Joanns and the love/hate relationship people tend to have with them. So many sewists dislike the crafty stuff, but selling just fabric makes it hard to pay the bills.
------I no longer measure fabric by the yard, I measure it by the bin.

90 year old woman | Stacy, MN, United States | Seeking men 35-50 within 50 miles
Dont wait until tomorrow what you can do today..
I love football, sewing, travel, outdoors cooking salt water fishing and adventure! Multi-faceted... sometimes outgoing, sometimes quiet and reflective. Creative and inspiring. I can go from dress up to work-out in 5 minutes. Love hiking, getting dirty then nice refreshing water. I'm looking for a man who is unlike all others. Unique, authentic, funny and true. Chemistry, compatibility, communication and companionship... then we can go from there. There are so many profiles with a long list of poetic derivatives from personal development and well written books. I may appear to be complicated, but it's really quite simple out spoken and call it the way I see it but that does not mean I am rude in any manner at all. What I'm Looking for : I am on the quest to share my life with someone who is looking for a long term relationship that will eventually lead to marriage and family. A companion who will be there for me as I am there for him. Someone who is confident and has a good head on his shoulders. Someone who is affectionate and who I have chemistry and compatibility with. Someone sincere, open-minded, and who has good judgment. I am looking for a man who will allow me to be myself and will bring out the best in me. A companion that takes initiative, is trustworthy, has a zest for life, and is outgoing and romantic. I am looking for a best friend and a significant other. I'm not interested in the bar scene, dating lots of guys or just "hooking up." if you have any questions, we can go further into depth and more profound conversations. Looking forward to the journey ahead ~ Cheers and best of wishes in finding your true love

Indiana Township native recognized for ability to imitate animal calls
For Shawn Kotchey, being able to imitate animal calls for hunting has turned into a successful personal and professional venture.
Kotchey earned third place for owl hooting in a calling competition in Harrisburg.
He also took seventh in the nation in turkey calling in the same competition. Those honors come after he finished first in slate call and first in the locator division at a competition in Minnesota.
Kotchey also took second place in crystal pot call and third place in box call in that competition.
The two competitions are among the top in the country. The four honors at the Minnesota show were especially gratifying for Kotchey.
"I only did four entries, and all four of them made the top three. That's pretty crazy," he said.
The Indiana Township native, who is a 1995 graduate of Fox Chapel Area High School, opened Millcreek Valley Game Calls in Corsica in 2010.
His uncle and his friend used to compete in calling contests and got Kotchey interested.
After working for other game companies, he decided to start his own.
Calls are judged based on how much they sound like an actual animal and how appealing the calls are for customers.
Kotchey said he has recorded and studied actual wild turkeys to perfect the sound.
In addition to running the company, Kotchey also speaks nationally about game calls at various seminars.
He also participates in charity programs, including Wounded Warrior hunts and Hunt of a Lifetime, a program that grants hunting wishes for children fighting cancer.
Kotchey said the business has been growing steadily. He looks forward to what the future holds for the company.
"I'm doing what I love," Kotchey said.

How Watch Grappling?
Years ago I had a roommate who grew up in Africa and was a semi-pro soccer player. When the World Cup came around -- it was the one France won -- sometimes we'd be watching a game together and he would react to something I hadn't seen, at all. I don't mean that I would see some maneuver and not understand the importance or the difficulty, but that I didn't see anything.
I am starting to feel this way when an MMA fight goes to the ground. Striking and takedowns seem easier to understand, and I don't know why that is, but sometimes I can't tell who is winning on the ground. I was rooting for Serra when he fought Hughes a while ago, but I was sure Hughes was winning because of the takedowns and what happened on the mat. But the next day, I noticed that many more knowledgable observers felt Serra had been robbed.
I know the obvious solution is "go to a BJJ school," but that's not an option right now. Are there some fundamental things you look for in groundfighting that indicate who has the advantage? Like, "Watching Grappling For Morons"? I think the most disconcerting thing for a noob watching grappling is getting used to the fact that they guy on the bottom might be winning. It's easy to understand that if Fedor is on top of Minotauro punching him in the face repeatedly, then Fedor is winning. But clearly it's often more subtle than that.

Watch more grappling?
I guess just keep a close eye on who is in control. Where are who's hands? Which guy looks like he's working harder? How good of a grip does who have, and where?
Go to a BJJ school.
6/30/2009 2:02pm, #3--
It pains me to says this, but...listen to Joe Rogan. Or better yet, if you're watching WEC, listen to Frank Mir. They usually explain what's going on and what each person is trying to do.
6/30/2009 2:08pm, #4--
Hmm, not a bad idea.
Or watch the IFL and listen to Bas Rutten, and try really really hard not to think of his self-defense videos and instead focus on the fact that he's a beast and three quarters.
6/30/2009 2:57pm, #5--
Dont listen to people that say they think Serra won. They´re very likely delusional BJJ nutriders or trolls.
6/30/2009 3:49pm, #6--
Going to a BJJ lesson or two helps. You'll also develop it naturally over time as you watch more and more.
If you're watching an event on DVD, and someone gets swept or subbed, rewind a few seconds to watch the setup. How did it happen? Where were both fighters' hands/knees/hips/etc.? Eventually you'll start recognizing where wrist control is a setup for a triangle and when it's a setup for a kimura, those types of things.

Pay attention to who's in control, try to see who is on top, who is the one defending and who's attacking.
6/30/2009 8:45pm, #8--
I hate to say it, but you'll never really understand what's going on until you train in it. There's so many subtle things that happen in a grappling contest that it requires first-hand knowledge to understand the nuances.
6/30/2009 10:49pm, #9--
Striking seems easy to understand because everyone and their mother can see when one dude's hand or foot flies out and smashes the other dude in the face. In reality, however, there are depths to understanding, and the subtle aspects of striking can be quite difficult to decipher.

It is in these challenging times that we find the greatest opportunity to create positive change and to forge the pathways for positive self-talk. We can lay the groundwork for confidence and solid character and it all begins with the words we say and the love with which they are delivered. What is it that YOU would like your children to truly know about themselves?
What does it mean to be a conscious parent? That you will magically become all-knowing? That you will know the perfect thing to say in every situation? That you will never yell, feel frustrated or lose your cool when you find your little one climbing up and sliding down the back of the car roof while your other little one is drawing on the car windows with permanent marker?
Yoga to me can be practiced all the time, like meditation. Every single moment of every day, I try to be mindful, whether I am engaging with a janitor, a chef, an engineer, or a marketing colleague. I do set aside time for specific practices, but in truth, every moment of every day is my inner work.
If time holds us captive, it simultaneously offers the key to our liberation. Our shackles belong to the past and the future. In the present moment there is no past or future that is not contingent upon our attention to exist. Learning to manage our attention is the best way to manage our relationship with time.

During cold weather people begin using furnaces and sealing up the properties to keep out drafts. It's during this time of year when many people may begin to experience unique health issues related to their indoor environment.
"Building occupants may complain of dry air, stuffy rooms, and odors, or experience more frequent allergies and even asthma attacks," reported Paul Cochrane, President of Cochrane and Associates, the company behind the IAQ Video Network and the new public outreach video. "These conditions and complaints are often due to the indoor air quality. We hope this video helps to educate people about unique indoor issues they may face during the winter and how they can protect their health."
