i detached the connectors in the back because that's the only way to put those lights 'off', especially when i'm not using the car. but, they're not really working as break lights because if i re-connect the lights, they're always 'on'. they're supposed to turn on only when i step on the 'breaks'.

Just got home from a trip to Cardinal Point Farms. We were running low on eggs, and I get a little nervous if we don't have a few sitting in the fridge.
When I called Anne, I said I had heard somewhere that chickens don't lay as much during cold times and wondered if she even had any to sell. She said the hens must have not gotten that memo because she had plenty. I cackled and said I'd be right over.
I like that Anne and Steve raise cage-free, organically fed chickens. Maybe it's just me, but I believe the freedom and natural conditions the chickens enjoy make the eggs taste better. I do know that I once I cracked a Cardinal Farm egg in the same bowl as a store-bought one and asked my wife which was which. She easily noted the rich marigold color of the local, organic yolk from the rather pale yellow yolk of the other.
I also like that the farm is nearby, which means these eggs are more earth-friendly than those shipped in from faraway. I wouldn't say I'm fanatical about it, but it seems like a good thing to try to lessen my environmental footprint when I have the choice.
Factor in the chemicals, fertilizers and water resources used to produce the things we consume, add the fuel used to ship it from here to there, and measure the effects these have on the environment, and something as simple as eating an egg suddenly becomes not so simple. Would it be a good idea to have some sort of chart that lists the true cost of the things we buy? Would people pay attention to such charts?
Thinking about the socioeconomic system of egg production is one complicated issue, but in the kitchen an egg can be a pretty simple thing. At its most basic, all you need is some boiling water and an egg, and you have a meal. Of course, you can get as complicated and souffléd as you dare, which is to me one more piece of evidence that eggs are a fundamental part of human existence. Egg dishes are a lot like people: They run the gamut from humble and quiet to lively and flamboyant.
For a few years I stopped eating eggs. Test results showed my cholesterol was higher than it should have been, and so I shunned eggs believing it to be a good way I could do something to lower it. At one time this was the accepted wisdom. More recent studies have been questioning the need to go completely eggless.
Eggs are a great source of protein and are rich in many other nutrients. As one who lives a mostly vegetarian lifestyle, getting good protein is an important consideration. The interesting thing is, both annual tests during these last two egg-eating years revealed my cholesterol — both the "good" and "bad" types — has been well within the acceptable range. Of course moderation is the key.
Around the world and across time, human cultures and civilizations have seen the egg as a symbol of creation. The Orphic Egg of Greek mythology hatched the god who created all the other gods. In the Chinese myth, when a deity broke out of the primordial egg, the top half of the shell became the sky while the bottom half became the earth.
Such stories are told to this day, with modern science postulating that billions of years ago the entire universe was compressed into a "gravitational singularity" — sometimes referred to as the "cosmic egg."
For thousands of years we humans have been eating as well as telling stories about the simple and wondrous egg, and we continue to this day. Right now I'm thinking how a fluffy frittata would be just the thing for this cold winter evening.

I first was given Ma Griffe as a present when I was 17 from a young man aged 20. We had started dating just a few months earlier and been spending a lot of time together, getting closer by the day. The young man had to go away for a month and we missed each other immensely, we exchanged letters and upon his return he presented me with my gift. We were married and years later we visited Europe and I found Ma Griffe once again. Now that young girl and her man are over 50 and have been married 35 years. I searched the internet for my favourite fragrance and was overjoyed to once again purchase that all familiar and most significant perfume, thank you.

I bought Ma Griffe because my Mum said she loved it,and I'd read many reviews about it which made me look forward to receiving it, but I was dissapointed when I tried it. On me it started off sharp and strong with a wet tree bark smell which after an hour or so faded to cinnamon cookies. Eventually it settled down to old age pensioners wearing to much floral talcum powder on a hot day. My husband absolutely hates it, he said it smells of old ladies.( How he knows I don't!?) I will either give it away as a present to an elderly relative who might love it, or put it on [...]

While driving the truck will go to reduced engine power. I can stop, turn the key off and restart within a few seconds. It will then run fine, sometimes for a few miles, sometimes for weeks. Some times it will clear the engine hours, sometimes it won't. Also sometimes the check engine light will come on, sometimes it does not. What could be the cause of this? I have not had the codes read yet.

Labor of love: Art prof Eric Ligon opens world of books
Eric Ligon loves to read, but struggled to share a book with his son.
Ethan, who is blind, covered book pages with his hands as he read Braille, making it difficult for his father to follow along with him. So Ligon, a University of North Texas associate professor of art, created a new design with the Braille words at the bottom and the printed words and illustrations at the top. Thanks to his dad's ingenious design, Ethan can share a book with his sighted brother, 7-year-old Spencer, and the rest of his family.
"It's really cool," Ethan said.
Ligon also co-founded BrailleInk., a nonprofit organization that produces the books in the format he created. His design opens up a world of books for people who have struggled to read together with their children, grandchildren, parents, students, teachers, siblings and friends – and even for people simply interested in learning about Braille.
"As a graphic designer reading with my son, I kept thinking there's a way to design books so they're easier to share between Braille and print readers, " Ligon said. "This new format accomplishes that and also helps educate sighted folks about blindness, Braille and disabilities. Teaching sighted children and adults about Braille is a big step toward reducing social stigmas associated with blindness, and that's now a lot easier."
BrailleInk. recently announced its first two titles – the classic "Guess How Much I Love You" by Sam McBratney and Anita Jeram, and "The Dot " by Peter H. Reynolds. Both were originally published by Candlewick Press.
BrailleInk.'s editions are large, sturdy, board books with thick pages that hold the Braille embossing securely and withstand heavy use. The corresponding print characters are directly above each Braille cell, so sighted people can read along and even learn Braille. Each book contains a glossary including the Braille alphabet and instructions about numbers and punctuation.
"It breaks up the Braille into manageable pieces, and we think parents, teachers and friends will find that a useful tool," Ligon said.
Eric Ligon and his wife, Leslie, discovered Ethan was blind when they took him to the doctor for a routine checkup when he was 2 months old. He had detached retinas – a problem that had likely developed after he was born, though doctors aren't sure why. Doctors immediately tried to restore his sight with surgery, but to no avail.
Knowing they had to guide their child to become independent in a sighted world, the Ligons immersed themselves in finding help for Ethan. They bought him a cane when he was just 2 years old. They enrolled him in T-ball, where he ran the bases by listening to his dad clapping his hands in front of him. He learned to swim and play basketball, piano and violin.
Eager to impart their love of reading to their child, the Ligons used to buy two sets of books – one in Braille and the other in the print version so they could read with him. With BrailleInk.'s design, they no longer have to do that. And neither do other families.
Bruce Curtis, co-founder and executive director of BrailleInk, said about 85 percent of children who are blind go to mainstream schools, as Ethan does.
"Their regular classroom teachers don't know Braille. Then, these children come home to parents who don't know Braille," said Curtis, former coordinator of the Perkins Panda Early Literacy Program for Perkins School for the Blind. "It's so critical for parents and children to share books, and now that's a lot easier for families with a Braille reader."
As for Ethan, he can reel off a few well-liked books – including Sponge Bob classics like "Trouble at the Krusty Krab." But he doesn't have a favorite. Not now, anyway.
"I haven't found the book that made me so into reading yet," Ethan said.
Perhaps with his dad's help, together, they'll find that perfect book.

I'm attempting to set up FTP for our clients on a server different from that of our website.
We have a VM running Linux/Redhat that we use for some of our client's sites and I want to use that server as an FTP repository but I'm not certain on how to manage my DNS records to make this work properly.
Our DNS records are at www.mydomain.com. When I navigate to ftp.mydomain.com it gives me access to our website. But, I want have clients be able to go to ftp.mydomain.com and access their own ftp folder on the VM Linux server.
Do I need to.. 1. Abandon this and create a zone on the linux machine for, say, clients.mydomain.com and create a new FTP CNAME in my DNS records that directs FTP traffic to clients.mydomain.com to the IP address of the Linux machine?
or 2. create some kind of 'A' record for ftp.mydomain.com?
I'm new to this level of administration and I'm not sure the best way to make it all work.

Published in Marriage & Family
Keywords: Marriage, Family, conjugal love, theology of the body, holiness, life, pro-life, natural family planning, Andrew M. Greenwell, Esq.
CORPUS CHRISTI, TX (Catholic Online) - Three to Get Married was the name of a popular book written by Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen. The title of this book holds a great truth. Marriage involves more than two parties: one man and one woman. The third party--often forgotten in what Bishop Sheen called the "dis-God-ed" generation--is God.
The institution of marriage, one must not forget, is not one designed by the will of the parties. The parties enter into the institution by an act of self-donation which certainly requires free will; but they do not define the institution. The institution of marriage, like all of what is, is entirely dependent on God the Creator, the God who is the "author of marriage" and who "endowed it with various benefits and purposes." (Compendium, No. 230)
One of the benefits of marriage is conjugal love. Here, too, God is the author conjugal love, and He has endowed it with various benefits and purposes. The benefits do not come without responsibilities. Perhaps the most apparent and perhaps the most abused in our own age: "Conjugal love is by its nature open to the acceptance of life." (Compendium, No. 230)
Not only have we severed the tie between sex and marriage, we have severed the tie between sex and procreation. Modern man has a penchant for separating things that ought to be together and putting things together that ought to be separate.
Though sex and procreation are things human persons share with other animals, we must not be fooled to think that these acts are by any stretch of the imagination the same. Biological similarity is not ontological similarity.
Whatever humans do involves persons, and this changes the entire complexion of the matter. One cannot forget that the procreative privilege given man is unique in that it leads to the creation, together with God, of persons, that is, those with the image and likeness of God. No brute animal shares in this privilege.
The Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church speaks of the "social subjectivity of the family." By its very nature, the family is tied into society and is therefore subject to the laws of social life. Uniquely, the family is the fundamental cell where human life is transferred from generation to generation, almost in a manner that a baton is passed from runner to runner in a relay race.
Human life continues to burn within families from generation to generation in a "communion of generations." We might also liken it to the sacred fire of Vesta, which burned for generations in the beautiful circular Temple of Vesta in Rome attended by its vestal virgins. (cf. Compendium, No. 237)
In this manner every child born to a family is a benefit not only to his or her mother, father, brothers or sisters, but also to the entire community into which he or she is born. The family is the temple where the flame of life is transmitted. It is a temple dedicated to the Lord of Life. The family is naturally ordered to serve what John Paul II has called the Gospel of life, the Evangelium Vitae. Every birth ought to declare: Life is good news!
The family is therefore an intensely spiritual society, and the conjugal act that is at the heart of the marriage and which is its fire has a spiritual dimension which is too often forgotten in our day. "Fatherhood and motherhood represent a responsibility which is not simply physical but spiritual in nature." Through motherhood and fatherhood "there passes the genealogy of the person, which has its beginning in God and which must lead back to him." (Compendium, No. 237) (quoting JP II, Gratissimam sane, 10)
"The family contributes to the social good in an eminent fashion through responsible motherhood and fatherhood, the spouses' special participation in God's work of creation." (Compendium, No. 232) For this reason, civil society--including the State--is obliged to assure that its customs and laws support it. Most fundamentally, neither the State nor civil society may impinge or in any manner "violate the right to life, from conception to natural death." Rather, the civil society and the State are obliged to "protect and promote it." (Compendium, No. 231)
Motherhood and fatherhood must be exercised responsibly, with full consideration of a proper hierarchy of values. This means that that married couples must be open to life. Granted, motherhood and fatherhood are not exercised in a vacuum. In making their decisions, couples are entitled to consider the "physical, economic, psychological, and social conditions" which they confront. These present the setting in which responsible parenthood is practiced.
Within these constraints or opportunities, couples confront the gamut of possibility from the "duly pondered and generous decision to have a large family" to the "decision, made for serious reasons and in respect of the moral law, to avoid for a time or even indeterminately a new birth." (Compendium, No. 232)
The practice of responsible procreation, however, must be in conformity with moral law. Some methods of responsible parenthood are to be rejected outright, in all times, in all places. Violating them involves violating exceptionless moral norms. Sterilization, abortion, and any form of artificial contraception are to be rejected as means of responsible parenthood. They are intrinsically wrong.
Anyone sensitive to "a correct and integral understanding of the person and of human sexuality" will recognize at once why and how seriously artificial contraception offends against the conjugal act and the natural moral law. In other words, if the Church's teaching on contraception bothers us, it is proof positive our view of marriage and sexuality is warped and needs straightening.
Responsible parenthood demands the exercise not of all options, but only of moral options. And the moral decisions do not only involve the decision to artificially avoid conception. They also involve the decision to promote conception. There is no absolute "right to children," and no desire to be a mother or a father justifies immoral means to conceive them.
Modern technology has invaded the temple of the family in a sort of abomination of desolation which separates the procreative act from the unitive act and seeks to replace or substitute the conjugal act. The upshot is that "the child comes about more as the result of an act of technology than as the natural fruit of a human act in which there is a full and total giving of the couple." (Compendium, No. 235) Children are viewed as commodities, the product of technology, and not the product of a physical, spiritual and moral self-giving.
The immoral techniques that are available are unfortunately legion: the donation of sperm or ova, surrogate motherhood, homologous and heterologous artificial fertilization, and so on. While there are some techniques that "end assistance to the conjugal act or to the attainment of its effects" which are legitimate, there are a whole host of illicit and immoral techniques that ought to be rejected. The ends do not justify the means. This is a fundamental moral principle that we have forgotten.
One must also not forget that the child has certain rights to be born or raised within the confines of a natural family. "The unborn child must be guaranteed the best possible conditions of existence through the stability of a family founded on marriage, through the complementarities of the two persons, father and mother." (Compendium, No. 235) Efforts to provide children to persons involved in some sort of civil union other than a family founded on the marriage of one man and one woman are to be shunned as unnatural and violative of the childrens' rights.
Finally, human cloning--defined as "the reproduction of a biological entity that is genetically identical to the originating organism"--is something to be abjured. Whether for reproductive or therapeutic purposes, human cloning is "contrary to the dignity of human procreation because it takes place in total absence of an act of personal love between spouses."
It is an "agamic and asexual reproduction" unworthy of man. It represents, moreover, "a form of total domination of the reproduced individual on the part of the one reproducing it." It is a form of technological tyranny. (Compendium, No. 236) It ushers us into what C. S. Lewis so insightfully discussed in his marvelous little book on the natural law, The Abolition of Man.

Who: Twilight Pizza Bistro was established in historic downtown Camas in 2007. This November marked the first anniversary of their second restaurant, on 192nd Avenue. The main difference with the newer restaurant, other than the decor, is a full bar and an expanded menu that offers more options. Entrées such as Alaskan Coho Salmon, a Carlton Farms Pork Chop, and Chicken Roulade Medallions provide more than the pizza and pasta that have made Twilight a favorite of many Clark County residents. Twilight won the 2nd Annual Portland Pizza Showdown in April.
Atmosphere: The strip mall location is separated into two dining areas — one offers family oriented dining at basic tables and chairs, the other provides bar seating and bar dining at tall tables. A few interior walls divide the main spaces further, creating more interest and losing the cafeteria feel of many strip mall restaurants. The decor, while inspired by the older location, is much less ethereal in appearance and vibe. Many mirrors are used along the walls. Below the open, black ceiling, a warm, subdued color palette makes the space feel fairly cozy above the stained concrete floor.
What I tried: I tried the Chicken Roulade Medallions, which sit atop a blackberry jalapeño sauce and are accompanied by mashed potatoes and "seasonal vegetables," broccolini on my visit. My dining companions tried the Carlton Farms Pork Chop (bone in) with caramelized sweet onion and apple brandy sauce, served with the seasonal vegetables (the same as what was on my entrée) and "TDF fries" (housemade thin-cut fries tossed with garlic, rosemary, parmesan and parsley), The Jester pizza and a Margherita pizza.
The chicken roulade consists of a chicken breast stuffed with spinach and mushrooms, wrapped in bacon, roasted, cut into medallions, and placed atop the sauce. The dish was beautifully presented, but for all of its aesthetic appeal it was disappointing. I found the chicken had taken on the flavor of the bacon fat and the spinach and mushrooms left no trace of their presence. The sauce, which I presume is supposed to be a fine balance of sweet and hot, was much more hot than sweet. Overall, though the textures were appealing, I may as well have been eating fried bacon fat dipped in slightly sweet hot sauce. The mashed potatoes were flavorful and appetizing and the broccolini had an appealing crisp to it.
My dining companion, who tried the pork chop, enjoyed the dish. The chop was almost perfectly cooked to a nice medium; there was just a small area that was left rare, not enough to send it back, but noted. The sauce complemented the meat with a sweet, aromatic quality. I sampled the TDF fries and found them quite delicious; the quartet of seasoning on the thin-cut, crispy fries could make them habit forming.
Both pizzas were consistent in quality and appearance with the pizzas at the other location.
We wrapped up our meal with the Chocolate Torte. This is a two-layer, dark chocolate mousse cake. Between the layers and on the base is a coconut layer, and the cake is covered with a chocolate ganache frosting. The result is an Almond Joy lovers' delight.
Menu highlights beyond what I tried: Both the Baby Back Ribs and the Seared Ahi Tuna sounded delicious.
Other observations: The wait staff was friendly and attentive.
It was a full house on the evening of my dinner visit — given the family-friendly atmosphere, there was an energetic crowd that was slightly louder than the background music.
Gluten-free pizza crust is available.
Facebook is an ideal way to keep up with Twilight's community involvement and events.
Both Twilight restaurants leave room for improvement as it relates to their health scores. I personally prefer dining at restaurants which have consistently low (good) health scores.
Cost: Appetizers are priced from $4.95 to $11.95. Soup is $3.95 for a cup and $5.50 for a bowl. Salads start at $4.95 for the simple Fresca Salad and top out at $14.95 for the Seared Ahi Tuna Salad. Sandwiches cost $8.95 to $11.95. Entrees and pasta dishes range from $8.95 to $17.95. Pizzas come in 8-inch, 10-inch, 12-inch, 14-inch, and 16-inch and cost $5.95 up to $27.90 other than the cheese only pizza which costs $4.95 to $18.90. Kids' menu items are $4.50 to $5.50.
Hours: 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. Mondays. 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday and Sunday. 11 a.m. to midnight Friday and Saturday.
Where: 1905 S.E. 192nd Ave., Suite 101, Camas (East Vancouver).
Telephone: 360-833-1919.
Web: www.twilightpizzabistro.com
Health score: Twilight Pizza received a 20 on Aug. 14. Zero is a perfect score, and Clark County Public Health closes restaurants with a score of 100 or higher. For information, call 360-397-8428.

I am just jumping into testing of a GUI-heavy app written in C++(MFC) and C# (WinForms, WPF). I have played with coded ui tests briefly, and I am happy with what I see. The trouble is that my program is non-trivial, so this does not work for me for 2 reasons:
VS 2010 Coded UI Test - Launch Referenced Application
- There are 3 programs to launch in certain order, and I need to log in to one of them. Timing is important; I need to make sure that they have come up.
- Start-up time is long, so I want to make sure that this set up is only done once per project.
- When the project is done, I want to cleanly destroy this thing.
- For each test I would want to make sure that the windows is active and is in the forefront at the beginning of each test.
What are some good approaches? If you find that this question is too vague, please let me know what it is missing.

Validating a Centrality Model of Self-Identity
Pedersen, Darhl M., Social Behavior and Personality: an international journal
An earlier investigation of the centrality of attributes of self-identity led to a four-factor model. The four factors of self-identity which varied according to their centrality and which were measured by the Who Am I? Scale were Spiritual, Personal/Social, Family, and Identifications (outward and physical). This study was directed toward further validation of the model. Three grouping variables-gender, marital status, and church attendance-were examined according to their relationship to profiles representing the centrality of the four factors. 226 participants from three diverse universities were studied. Profile analyses yielded no significant gender differences in the centrality profiles. However, there were significant differences relative to marital status and amount of church attendance. Married people had identities that were higher in Family and lower in Personal/Social and Identifications. And church attendance was directly related to the centrality of Spiritual identity and inversely related to the centrality of Personal/Social and Identification identities.
Self, self-identity, and self-concept are virtually synonymous terms. The self has been a fundamental concept in psychoanalytic (Freud, 1963), phenomenological (Rogers, 1959; Maslow, 1970) and trait (Allport, 1961) theories. These terms generally refer to the total set of perceptions one has of who one is as a distinct person. Self-identity will be the term selected for that concept in this paper. Some other terms that describe the self are self-esteem or self-evaluation. These refer to the value judgement placed on the self by a person in terms of how good one perceives oneself to be.
Studies of self-identity have usually employed reactive measures. In this type of measure, people have been asked to describe themselves using dimensions selected by the researcher according to some theoretical orientation. To elicit a response, reactive measures have used statements (Coopersmith, 1967), adjective checklists (Gough & Heilbrun, 1965), or semantic differential scales (Sherwood, 1965; Soares & Soares, 1969). This approach has yielded nomothetic measures which have permitted both inter-individual and intergroup comparisons to be made. However, they have not captured the idiosyncratic richness of an individual's selfidentity.
Allport (1961) stated that the self is the answer to the question "Who are you?" This question may be posed to people to elicit their unique concept of self. This view of self has been referred to as the phenomenal self (McGuire & McGuire, 1988). In phenomenal self measurement, researchers have generally used an openended measurement approach (Bugental & Zelen, 1950; Kuhn & McPartland, 1954; Kelly, 1955). Respondents have been asked to use their own words to describe themselves. This approach has yielded idiographic measurement. The uniqueness of an individual's self-identity was obtained. However, the main disadvantage of this type of measurement was that comparisons across individuals and groups were difficult to make.
Not all aspects of the self are equally central in defining who one is. For example, age is likely to be less important than personal traits in determining who one is. Markus found that contextual factors influence self-identity (Nurius & Markus, 1990) and that salience (cognitive centrality) affects how information about oneself is processed (Gurin & Markus, 1988). Furthermore, it has been shown that the centrality of an attribute of the self can be a function of social context (McGuire & McGuire, 1988).
According to personality theory, people share personality traits and personal constructs which are produced by common experiences within a culture (Cattell, 1957; Allport, 1961; Kelly,1963). In a similar manner, it is likely that there are elements of one's self-identity that are shared, as well as elements that are unique.
Theory and research involving self-identity have given little attention to explicitly identifying the relative centrality of various aspects of the self. …

I have 2 of these computers. PLEASE avoid buying them. They have had a recall on the motherboard. Last year I had one that went out and they repaired it. I told them I had another and they did not bother to tell it was under recall. Now the 2nd one has gone and because the recall EXPIRED they will only give me 10% off the amount of 398.00. What a joke. I can buy another computer with these specs around that. I have bought MANY compaq computers...Due to customer service when their products are bad...NEVER again!!
sorry to disagree, laptops cannot take knocks, the screen is easily broken, the hard drive also is fragile, might not fail immediately, but its life could be shortened by knocks.

When I'm listening to stuff on my iPhone, I normally choose a specific album and either listen to it all either in its intended order or through shuffle. There were times in the past where I'd just shuffle the entire collection of songs on my phone, but as my music tastes became more and more eclectic (and the songs themselves were mixed at differing volumes), they just became slightly dissonant with each other. I'd have some jaunty musical number seguing into a melancholy indie rock song seguing into Chopin seguing into something else. No particular flow going on. So, recently, I've made the executive decision to only focus on specific albums at a time, and it's been working out very well for my ears so far! :D

Members of Meridian-area media were treated to a lunch prepared by chefs-in-training Thursday.
Meridian Community College invited the media for a special meal prepared by students in the culinary arts program.
The students set up a model restaurant and served their own creations.
MCC president, Dr. Scott Elliott, says it's a great learning experience for the students and a good way to get the word out about the program:
"We think it has a strong nexus with the future of our community, really, with things like the Mississippi Arts and Entertainment Center coming to Meridian," said Elliott. "What we see, is there are going to be more and more opportunities for things like restaurants, hotel and motel restaurant management. And we want to do our part to produce some excellent entry-level employees for more industries into the future."
Meridian Community College offers 52 different career and technical programs.

Would you like to come down here to meet me, I'll probably be in the yard playing, your welcome to join in on the fun.

Gutierrez, 25, will ride in the Seattle Slew Handicap and Kent Handicap. He will also autograph posters in the paddock from 1 p.m. to 2:30 p.m.
The last jockey to ride at Emerald Downs the same year he won the Kentucky Derby was Gary Stevens, in 1997. Stevens finished second on Hesabull in the Longacres Mile. Stevens rode Silver Charm to victories in the 1997 Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes.
I'll Have Another was scratched from the Belmont with a tendon injury the day before the race, denying Gutierrez a shot at the Triple Crown.

Gutierrez, the leading rider a year ago at Hastings Racecourse in Vancouver, B.C., won the 2012 ESPY on Tuesday for best jockey.
Gutierrez grew up in Veracruz, on the Gulf of Mexico, the son of a jockey. He rode match races at age 14.
"Mario is the nicest young man I've worked for in my 60 years as a jockeys' agent," veteran agent Ivan Puhich said. "He's just a humble, modest kid who's always smiling. Some jockeys, they win a few races, and it's like they're Eddie Arcaro."
• Jockey Leonel Camacho-Flores broke his left arm and suffered facial lacerations when he was thrown off his mount, Send Silver, in the seventh race Thursday. The jockey was taken to Valley Medical Regional Center in Renton.

I am very disappointed that Mitt Romney lost his presidential bid, but at the same time I have to look at the big picture. At least I am blessed by the majority of Washington voters passing legalization of marijuana for recreational use. I don't have the habit, but at least have the option of taking it up to ease the pain of four more years of an Obama administration.

I have friends that have a child with down syndrome and autism, and I have seen their struggles, and every time I visit I am touched my how much love and care they give their son. The child has had trouble sleeping and his father would sing his son to sleep every night. His son loves music so much but has never learned to talk. He has also never been able to use sign language even though the parents have tried over the years. I found out that the father wrote a special song for his son and made a video, insisting on using a deaf music director and many deaf actors and including sign language. It is the most beautiful song and video I have ever seen expressing a father's love for this special boy and I just thought I would share the video with you. You should include this song on your annual album.

B-to-B Insights: Don't Be a Fool
Recently, I sent an email to my online subscribers driving them to a video selling an information product produced by Mary Ellen, one of my joint venture partners.
In return, I received an email from a subscriber—who shall be known as MH—taking me to school not for recommending the product, but for sending him to this particular video sales letter.
"The video style is outdated," began his lecture on what works in online video. "It's too long and boring," he stated. (The run time of the video is about 30 minutes.) "We're at a point in marketing, thanks to YouTube and Facebook, where we are competing for attention. This video didn't grab my attention, but bored me."
Nowhere, you will notice, does MH say "in my opinion." So we have to assume he believes what he is stating is irrefutable fact, and not merely what he thinks is the case.
Then my lesson began in earnest: "We're looking to get three things answered within three seconds. Yes, three seconds, Bob. In those few seconds, you must answer three questions: What is it, who's it about, and what do I get?"
"Really?" I thought. "Not, 'What are the benefits?' or 'Why should I buy and read it?'"
Teacher MH continued to lecture me as one would talk to a marketing newbie, even though I probably have been in marketing since he was in diapers.
"The reader MUST be put into an instant spotlight," he explained. "If this isn't clear, the prospect will bounce or start opening other sites and tabs on their computers. People are being trained involuntarily how to scan for the quick three answers above. Don't forget over 60 percent of these emails are opened on mobile phones also and rising this year.
"Mary Ellen completely failed to answer 'What do I get.' I need screenshots of the software, system, etc. I feel like I can do what she is doing without the program. Probably NOT, but where is the proof?"
