Kilgore, TX 75663
Oil Capital of Texas
Strike it Rich in Kilgore
Surrounded by the pine forest and clear blue lakes of East Texas about 120 miles east of Dallas and a short three and a half hour drive from Houston is Kilgore, Texas. In 1930, this quiet farming community was propelled into world prominence by the discovery of one of the greatest oil fields of our time. As people swarmed Kilgore form every direction, the town quickly became known as the "Capital of the Texas Oil Field."
|East Texas Oil Museum
In sharp contrast to the thriving boomtown of the 1930s, the Kilgore of today is a vibrant city that blends its rich oil field heritage with a variety of fascinating attractions and events. Classic Shakespearean theatre, the Kilgore College Rangerettes, the East Texas Oil Museum and the steel oil derricks at the World's Richest Acre Park appeal to visitors of all ages.
A visit to Kilgore may not get you a brand new oil well, but we promise fun for the whole family. Grab your hardhat and find out what the oil pioneers of long ago discovered… You will strike it rich with a visit to Kilgore.

Too old for Parkour? Wales Freerunners prove the statement that someone can be "too old for this shit" wrong by introducing their local Senior Citizens to the art of motion. Dope Project, love it!
Pasha the Boss – Behind the Scenes
Welcome to a normal day of shooting for Pasha's video. If you haven't seen the full video yet, you better get your priorities straight, click here to wach it NOW!
A lot of times people think we have a film- & editing-crew behind us, but that couldn't be further from the truth. If you hang out with us for a shoot it's just a few friends with a camera and while that seems a little innocent at first we take whatever we do dead-serious in a sense of learning something new every day. Just as people would see Freerunners as just some kids jumping around, while they are a lot more ambitious and passionate than you can tell at first sight.
We were lucky to have our good friend Thomas Garner around for the day to keep a second camera rolling.
There are no limits – 1-leg Freerunning
How Jackie Chan does Action Comedy
If you're into Film-Making we strongly recommend subscribing to Every Frame a Painting, where he analyses the greats of the Movie Business.
In this Episode he talks about Jackie Chan and breaks down what makes him the Master of Action-Comedy. A lot of things are similar to Freerunning, especially the sense of rhythm you see the likes of Pasha and Bart van der Linden put into their choreography and of course shooting many takes, until you get it just perfect.
Farang in Singapore – Lion City Gathering
When CP – local Freerunner from Singapore – send out invites for the first ever National Gathering in his hometown he could've never known how positive the response was. When we rocked up one day fashionably late we spend at least an hour just shaking hands with old friends and soon-to-be new ones.
Among the 60 international guests was our whole Farang Crew, Storror, a gang of Malaysians, the Chinese Posse all decked out in Red Bull Gear and what seemed to be Bondi Beach Surf Club at first, but turned out to be long-haired Australian Freerunners.
Singapore has some of the best Parkour-Spots we've seen, literally the whole city has an abundance of conveniently placed rails, walls and ledges. The downside you ask? Some of the strictest laws and police we've ever seen. Apparently the Police spotted the Event on Facebook and rocked up to the spots before we even arrived, keeping a close eye on our activities. So far so good, nobody got kicked out, we had great time jamming out with hundreds of people and the officers let us be.
Turns out they are not as pleasant if you walk up onto the rooftops of the many apartment blocks. No argument or reasoning allowed, you have to go into custody for the night. A few Freerunners had to learn this the hard-way and about 4 separate arrests gave a bunch of locals and visitors the opportunity of a free night in jail.
Stories were made and it all was a good laugh afterwards! The whole Jam was an amazing experience, with the locals showing us their favourite areas and getting everybody free gym access for the evenings. Literally 3 days of constant motion and sleep on hard floors put as back on a plane to Bangkok with scuffed up clothes and a smile on our face. Singapore – Lion City Gathering 2015 – was real as fuck and we can't wait to be back next year!
Massive Thank you to CP for the whole organisation, Jonathan for turning Shaun into a walking WiFi-Hotspot, Wellington Wu for letting us crash at your gym and everybody who showed up to the event!

Surreal Wood Sculptures by Yashitoshi Kanemaki
Japanes Sculptor Yashitoshi Kanemaki creates beautifully strange characters out of wood. Sometimes it's easy to take the craftsmanship that goes into art as granted or even completely forget about it, this step by step photo-series reminds us of the stunning work that goes into each of the pieces pictured below!
5 years of Train-Hopping caught on camera
18-years old Mike Brodie embarked on an adventure and spent the 5 years to follow ilegally hopping on and off of trains around the US. Without any photography education he took his camera and just kept on shooting, documenting this alternative lifestyle.
The candid images he created are an amazing window into a world we only thought existed a few centuries ago and evokes a wanderlust-feeling.
After publishing his photos and getting an outstanding response from the art world, publishing a book and touring through galleries he decided to leave photography behind and now works as a mobile diesel-mechanic in his '93 dodge-ram.
Brodie Pawson destroys Singapore and Sydney
Brodie Pawson gives us just the motivation we needed for this weekends Lion City Gathering in Singapore. Watch him tear up the streets of Singapore and Australia with some massive hops and clean flips in his latest edit – Beast Mode.

[caption id="attachment_83717" align="alignnone" width="500"] The annual growth rate of North Bay industry jobs has been slowing in recent months. (image credit: North Bay Business Journal; click to enlarge)[/caption]
Unemployment rates across the North Bay dropped in September and largely remained the same in October, according to two months of state figures released.
Sonoma County's jobless rate was preliminarily figured to be 6.1 percent in October, unchanged from a revised 6.1 percent in September but well below the year-ago estimate of 7.8 percent, according to the state Employment Development Department.
The county had 2,200 more industry jobs in October from a year before, a gain of 1.2 percent, according to state estimates.
Over the month, the government sector added 2,600 jobs, while other monthly gains occurred in education and health services, at 400, and trade, transportation and utilities, at 300.
Over the year, the trades and leisure and hospitality industries had the most gains, 800 apiece, while education and health added 500.
The unemployment rate in the Solano County was 7.7 percent in October, unchanged from a revised 7.7 percent in September, and below the year-ago estimate of 9.4 percent.
Over the month, education and health added the most jobs, at 400, while yearly gains occurred in education and health, leisure and hospitality, each with 800 jobs, while the trades added 700.
Marin County once again had the lowest rate in California -- at 4.8 percent in October, down a full point from last year's 5.8 percent. Marin industry employment figures for this year aren't yet available.

Just What I Needed
This review is from: Addonics NASU2 NAS Adapter
Pros: Connection was fast, shows up on every PC on my network, and hasn't dropped off for any reason. I couldn't ask for it to work better. Powers an external 2.5" hard drive enclosure/hard drive through the USB port with no problems.
Cons: The Manual. It reads like it was from this product 2 generations ago. If you are shopping for this item, you are probably the kind of person that can figure it out. It was not a big deal; you have to get the spirit of the task from the "manual" and then kind of feel your way through it. Definitely also look at the manufacturer's website. The info there is more current. This isn't a big con, since once you get it set up it seems to work great.
Other Thoughts: I am using this with a Transcend TS0GSJ25S3 2.5" USB 3.0 hard drive enclosure, which holds a spare SATA laptop hard drive I had leftover. Both items were through Newegg. Basically I made my own cheap NAS. It's NASty! Ha ha! Sorry.

Did you find this review helpful?
This review is from: Addonics NASU2 NAS Adapter
Pros: Initial setup fairly easy. Works well from primary system. Not so for additional systems on network.
Cons: Could not find on the network from my laptop even trying to setup initially, software would not recognize the unit. I haven't given up yet, but it is quite frustrating.
Did you find this review helpful?
Nice Product
This review is from: Addonics NASU2 NAS Adapter
Pros: FAST setup!
Cons: Watch the firmware
Other Thoughts: This unit is SWEET! Worked first time, but I say that with a caveat. CHECK THE FIRMWARE REVISION. The uit I got did NOT keep the external drive awake, so it would hang the network. I called, got someone who spoke EXCELLENT English, they emailed me a firmware update, and it looks like it is now 100% I will post more if necessary, but I think this unit is a keeper!!

Pleased so far
This review is from: Addonics NASU2 NAS Adapter
Pros: Small, low power, CHEAP. Web server, Samba server, FTP, BT, XBOX media servers. Quite comprehensive. I put a 2TB WD external behind it, and it recognized it immediately. Formatting the drive was simple.
Cons: Setup is a taaaad tricky, as you'll need to create users and permissions/etc. Beyond that, nothing wrong so far.
Other Thoughts: I've only owned it for about 2 weeks, so it hasn't been in use long enough to get a really good read on it's performance/longevity. I could wish that it was USB3, or SATA/II/III, but then again, I could wish to win the lottery.

Tennessee Removes 323,000 from Medicaid
As Washington debates what to do about Medicaid, Tennessee is in the process of kicking 323,000 people off its program. Democratic Gov. Phil Bredeson says he has no choice, that the state simply can't afford what it's promised. But advocates for the poor say the state will likely pay more in the long run.

Mass. company to build solar array in Vt. townFebruary 02,2013CHARLOTTE- A Massachusetts company has received approval to build a solar array on a field in the Vermont town of Charlotte.
The Vermont Public Service Board recently approved the request by Charlotte Solar.
The Burlington Free Press reports (http://bfpne.ws/11cIBYk) the project, which was fought by neighbors, will occupy about 12.6 acres with 26 rows of solar panels. The panels will be about 10 feet high.
Bill Ellis, an attorney representing the neighbors, indicated then that it seemed the project was "predestined to be approved from the get-go."

UrbanHalo designer, Jen, believes that accessories should be as much functional as they are fashionable. As a runner, stay-at-home mom, and group fitness junkie she was always on the lookout for the perfect headband, one that was stylish enough to take her from the studio to preschool pickup, yet functional enough to stay in place without causing headaches. After much searching and even more disappointment, she sat down in front of her sewing machine with the cutest fabric she could find and the first UrbanHalo was born!
A lot has changed since that first headband was sewn. Jen discovered that the right material is key to the function of a headband. So after endless searching, samples and tests, her persistence paid off with the perfect fabric. Now, this perfect, buttery soft signature fabric is custom printed {in the fabulous USA} in each season's hottest prints and colors. As Jen began sharing the "Halo Love" word quickly spread and today UrbanHalos can be found in some of the finest boutiques, studios and salons across the US and Canada!

Interesting photo, Ryan! I like the layquer leaves!
I hope you are not too nervous for Friday! Good luck! I think about you!
Your neighbour, May
Thanks May! The tree was not in bloom at the time I took this, although I can't remember when that was exactly. I don't know if you noticed, or if it was on purpose, but this little garden is on the campus I'm driving back to on Friday. At this point my preparation is mostly finished, and I'm just considering whether to bring donuts for my defense committee, to make them happy while they listen. :)
Cheers, Ryan
That is a pure coincidence, that I have chosen this photo of the place, where you will be tomorrow, Ryan! That for sure is a good omen! :) :)
Maybe you even see the Magnolia tree, if you have time to look around. So you could bring back a photo of the full blossom! :)
Abrazos, May

AAA came out and helped me start the car by banging on the fuel tank? with a wrench while I was cranking it. Does it sound like the problem could be the fuel injector????

A $10,000 reward has been offered for information leading to the return of a work truck, tools, trailer and heavy equipment stolen from a home in Kershaw last month.
According to the Lancaster County Sheriff's Office, the $90,000 worth of equipment was stolen from a home at the corner of Lynnfield Street and U.S. 601 about 3:45 a.m. Feb. 8.
Surveillance video showed the work truck with an attached trailer hauling an excavator being driven out of the yard onto U.S. 601 and heading east toward the Flat Creek community.
The Katawba Valley Land Trust (KVLT) in Lancaster has received a conservation easement from the Sheorn family that protects a 152-acre tract on Beaver Creek in Northern Kershaw County.
A conservation easement is a voluntary agreement between a landowner and the land trust that places certain restrictions on the future property development while protecting the conservation values in perpetuity. Landowners can also realize tax benefits for the value of the donated easement.
Gene Baker, who went from ad salesman to Lancaster radio station owner and cable TV pioneer, died Monday night. He was 82.
Baker was the former owner of Royal Broadcasting, which included WLCM-AM and WPAJ-FM, and Video Vision, which was later bought by Comporium.
Colleagues remember him as a master salesman.
Republican Allen Blackmon, who worked for the S.C. Department of Revenue for more than 30 years, filed to run for Lancaster County auditor Tuesday.
"I was involved in all taxes, primarily income tax, sales tax and property tax," said Blackmon, 60, who retired from the state in 2012. "The auditor's office is actually overseen by the S.C. Department of Revenue."
An Indian Land native and 25-year veteran of law enforcement is running as a Democrat against incumbent Lancaster County Sheriff Barry Faile.
William "Billy" McCoy, filed to run for the office Tuesday. McCoy is currently a sergeant in the special services division of the Chester County Sheriff's Office.
He said he decided to run for sheriff because so many people kept asking him to and because Faile, elected in 2008 and completing his second term, has been in office long enough.
After 36 years in office, Lancaster County Coroner Mike Morris on Tuesday announced he will not seek reelection.
Morris, a Democrat who oversaw a tenfold increase in death cases over the years, talked about the importance of handling that investigative workload with compassion and human dignity.
"There are two things I have always preached to my staff," Morris said. "One is that you always call the deceased by his or her name. And never say 'I know how you feel.'"
Traveling up Main Street from Lancaster Square to the downtown business district is old hat for most of us.
But if you went that way Saturday morning, you may have crossed paths with two crosses as 90 members of Christian Assembly Worship Center carried the symbol of Christianity through downtown during Easter weekend.

In some ways, this is a fish story, though not one of exaggeration. It's also about swimming and boating, economic development, flowers and electricity and drinking water for millions of people.
Something has to change on the 300 block of Connor Street, an exasperated Gonzie Mackey told fellow Lancaster City Council members this week.
Mackey held up his granddaughter's bicycle tire with a bullet hole in it, and said the girl was on the bike when the bullet hit.
A Heath Springs man who called 911 to report someone in a pickup intentionally ramming his SUV ended up behind bars when the investigation revealed he was the aggressor, the Lancaster County Sheriff's Office said.
Douglas Wayne Donahue, 46, 631 Fairhill Road, was arrested on two counts of pointing and presenting a firearm and one count of second-degree assault and battery.

Cirque du Soleil's Dralion Promises to Dazzle Crowds with Chinese Acrobatic Arts
Known for its stunning blend of high-quality entertainment, Cirque du Soleil's more than 20 signature productions have traveled across the globe this year entertaining close to 15 million people. Now, it's Oklahoma's turn to experience "Dralion," a spectacular that unites the 3,000-year-old tradition of Chinese acrobatics arts with the multidisciplinary approach of the "Circus of the Sun."
"Dralion" continues performances at 7:30 p.m. Friday at the BOK Center in Tulsa. Performances in Tulsa continue on Saturday and Sunday.
Seven more performances are set in Oklahoma City from Wednesday to Dec. 23 at Chesapeake Energy Arena.
Billed as a harmonious blend of Eastern and Western acrobatic prowess, "Dralion" was inspired by Eastern philosophy and the endless desire for harmony between nature and humankind.
Even the show's name is a mix of the word "dragon" representing the East and "lion" symbolizing the West.
Throughout the show, the four elements that rule the natural order are portrayed in human form and are distinguished by different colors — water is green, air is blue, fire is red and the earth is ocher. Highlights will include many of the astounding feats of skill for which Cirque du Soleil is so well-known, including aerial dancing, juggling and performers scaling a 26-foot-high metallic wall.
Hiroi Tokuma, one of "Dralion's" trampoline aerialists, will perform in a group of five artists, with the male performers representing fire and the females characterizing water. A former competitive trampoline athlete who competed for Japan from 1994 to 2007 in the world championships, Tokuma is representative of the 54 performance artists from 16 countries who make up the cast.
"When I was small, my mom took me to gymnastics and I chose to trampoline," Tokuma said. "It was fun because you could go higher with the springs. When I was competing at the Japanese Nationals, someone came to see me from Cirque du Soleil and told me to send in a (demo) video, and I later trained with Cirque du Soleil in Montreal, Canada."
Dralion's story is easy to understand and a good show for the entire family, she said.
Cirque du Soleil publicist Julie Desmarais describes the production as a colorful and high-level fusion of energy, outstanding acrobatics and world-class performers.
"We have tested our audiences from with a 3-year-old to an 89-year-old and they all had a very good time," Desmarais said.

Dana Haggenjos regards No. 33 as her "lucky number."
It's easy to understand why.
Larry Bird wore it as a player, and she did, too. She wore it during four standout seasons on the DePauw University women's basketball team.
Moreover, she turned 33 this year — a year that, to date, has included her wedding and, most recently, the fulfillment of a long-time career ambition.
After serving 10 seasons as an assistant coach at DePauw, Haggenjos landed her first head coaching position in May when she was hired as the new women's basketball coach at Franklin College.
In total, 33 has added up to a run of good fortune — a run that has also kept her quite busy.
A Mooresville native with close personal ties to the area, she has spent the past several weeks familiarizing herself with players and the community, assembling a staff, hitting the recruiting trail and finishing the process of buying a new home in Johnson County.
"Just crazy times," said Haggenjos, who, despite her hectic schedule, has no complaints about the opportunity.
Having filled an assistant's role for a decade, she has not only aspired for a college head coaching job but longed for one near her hometown.
Franklin College was the perfect location.
"I knew I didn't want to really stay at DePauw because I wanted to branch out on my own, and Franklin was that opportunity," Haggenjos said. "It had everything I was looking for in a school, from the size of the school to the location, and the community-feel.
"I'm really excited to be here. I've already been welcomed with open arms from the community, so that's been exciting."
A former player at Mooresville High School and DePauw, Haggenjos spent 10 seasons prepping for the Franklin opportunity under the leadership of Tigers' head coach Kris Huffman, one the nation's top NCAA Division III coaches.
Huffman has led DePauw to two national championships, the most recent being in 2012-13, when the Tigers became the first women's team in Division III history go undefeated. Haggenjos was a top assistant on that team, which finished 34-0.
Prior to coaching for Huffman, Haggenjos played for her, too. A four-year letterwinner (1999-2003), she concluded her career among the Tigers' career leaders in points, field goal percentage, free throw percentage, rebounding and steals.
"I've had an exceptional leader and a great friend in Kris Huffman," Haggenjos said. "She set the bar really high. She's been a great mentor to me, and it's kind of nerve-racking to not have her beside me because I just love working with her. But at the same time, it's exciting to kind of be on my own, and I can't think of a better place to be than here, where I have all that (family) support near me."
At Franklin, Haggenjos — who takes over for Jennifer Temple, who resigned after two years — inherits a tradition-rich program that is coming off a 14-13 season. The Grizzlies have made seven Division III national tournament appearances, the most recent being in 2011-12; have won nine regular-season Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference championships; and won four HCAC tournament title.
Prior to last year's 14-13 campaign, they had back-to-back 20-plus seasons.
Haggenjos looks forward to building on Franklin's tradition. The process is beginning in earnest as she fills vacancies on the coaching staff (two of last season's assistants recently received head coaching jobs) and recruiting about to go full-bore.
Moreover, the Grizzlies anticipate the return of four starters, seniors Nichole Thompson and Lindsey Dall and sophomores Lauren DeSutter and Mandy Fisher.
"It all starts with relationships. I've met the girls a couple of times, and they seem like a great, close-knit group," she said. "That's what I was used to working with at DePauw. And honestly, you can be a mediocre team, but if you have great chemistry, you can do great things. I can't say that at DePauw we were the most talented team, if you just looked at us athletically from top to bottom, but our team played together, and I guess that's what I'm looking for.
"I'm super-excited because I know I have a great group coming in. As a first-year coach, it's going to be an interesting transition, but I'm really excited for the challenges. I'm sure we'll have a couple of bumps and bruises along the way, but I look forward to what the future holds."

The Fear Monger: Zombeavers! Killer Mimes! Martin Sheen In A Horror Movie!
By Nick Venable 2014-02-09 11:11:54 comments
The Quiet Ones Puts Out Awesome Poster With Its U.K. TrailerIn this world of increasingly Photoshopped posters, you can usually count on horror films to deliver artwork that steps outside the box for something different, and Hammer Films The Quiet Ones has done just that. Star Olivia Cooke, who plays the central mystery Jane, is seen with a bunch of stuff coming off of her. Is it fire? Ghosts? Plants? Part of the fun is not knowing. I dont know if it looks as unspeakable as the films tagline describes it, but its rather undescribable.
Jane is the subject of a paranormal experiment at Oxford University run by a professor (Jared Harris) who thinks he and a team of fearless students can induce a poltergeist spawning from the girls fractured psyche. What they dont consider, of course, is that major damage cant always be undone. And in this case, the damage includes a whole world of paranormal distress and misery. I cant wait to see this one, as it looks to be a film that eschews fake-out scares for a barrage of constant WTF-ness. Plus, I can use it as a blueprint to figure out what to do with this quiet and subdued girl that appeared in my backyard a few days ago. Check out the new U.K. trailer below, which doesnt really offer any new footage, but streamlines the stuff weve already seen.

I like Juniper with your other children. I like that Storm is one syllable but I likely wouldn't choose storm.
To me, Juniper is a lively name and is strong and robust in nature. So, I would find something one syllable that focusses on another image.
Juniper Mae/May
Juniper Zin
Juniper Eve
Juniper Lilac
Juniper Faith
Juniper Claire

I like Juniper Zelda or Zelda Juniper the best.
I have a hard time with multiple "word" names paired together, so since Zinnia, Storm, and Juniper all fit that category I like the inclusion of Zelda.
I like all your choices, however I do not like Storm in the first position. It's a great middle, though. The rest I think work in either position.

Crazy Park Entrance

Creator: unknown
Description: Shown here is the entrance to Crazy Park, Mineral Wells, Texas, a picture taken in 1938. This park was earlier a part of the Gibson Pavilion and Park in the 700 block of NW 2nd Avenue. It was located a block south of the Crazy Water Crystals plant, built in 1919. The property now [2008] belongs to, and is occupied by, the First Christian Church.

[A Lion's Club Christmas Project]
Date: 1938?
Creator: unknown
Description: A note by A.F. Weaver identifies this group as "Left to right: Lions, Cary Lodal, Moon Mullins, Charlie Johnson, "Santa Claus", Jess Pervine, Noble Glenn." The last four are pictured as sitting on the running board of a General Motors truck, which appears to be loaded with wrapped gifts. (No connection is known or implied, but since the "Santa Claus" in the picture is not identified, an interesting bit of local history is offered by way of suppletion: Rancher Charley Belding, a bachelor living west of Palo Pinto, was known annually to contribute (anonymously) truckloads of Christmas Gifts for needy children in the county.) Note the Hexagon Hotel in the upper right corner and the two gasoline stations, Gulf and Sinclair (H.C.) The picture appears to have been taken on the east side of N. Oak Avenue in about the 500 block. The Lion's club, mentioned in the title, is a service organization.

Exceptionally clean, wonderfully friendly and helpful staff, phenomenal location (across the street from the lake and walking distance to grocery store and a terrific meal at Tamarack Brew Pub). The laundry room was spotless, and I saw the shower mats being hosed down and scrubbed with a brush every day to back up what looked like a very clean bathroom. It was nice and quiet. Maintenance was constantly being done (fences being painted while we were there) so the place is spic and span. I didn't use it but there is a great pavilion and outdoor kitchen area to rent for large parties. I have never left a review before but this place was so lovely that I had to! - MarthaS

Guyana backing call for international probe of Gaza situation
The Government of Guyana today condemned what it says are "war crimes" being committed in the Gaza Strip and is backing calls for an international probe of the situation there.
The Government of Guyana statement follows:
The Government of Guyana continues to follow the tragic events obtaining in Gaza and condemns in the strongest of terms the deaths of hundreds of innocent lives including women and children. We also express our deep condemnation of the war crimes being committed and the Israeli air strike on the United Nations Shelter for refugees which has killed over a dozen people. Guyana deeply regrets this additional loss of life and injury. Moreover, the action has signaled a wanton disregard for the internationally renowned symbolism of the United Nations.
The Government of Guyana supports the call of the United Nations Human Rights Council to launch an international inquiry into the situation in Gaza and that those accountable should be brought to justice.
The Government reiterates its call for a peaceful and lasting solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

After quite a bit of intensive labor, my First Grade Common Core Math Assessment is complete! Phew! Our district is focusing on implementing reading and writing CCSS this year, and will move to focus on math as this year progresses. However, I wanted to have an assessment that I could use to group students into guided math groups and for monitoring my students for RtI.
It includes:
*Instructions and materials needed (just some basic classroom materials like counters and a whiteboard)
*A comprehensive assessment tool with ALL first grade math standards, and space to use the assessment five times per year (beginning of year, then after each quarter or trimester)
*Areas for notes about misconceptions and strengths
*Class Assessment Data tables to gather data across the class to aid in forming guided math and/or intervention groups

The Milwaukee Police department (specifically Chief Flynn) could care less about a law he does not like. He claims the weapon used by the customer in the Aldi shooting incident is evidence and can not be returned to the owner until it is no longer a possibility it is evidence. This is contrary to the law which states as long as a person makes the gun available as evidence if needed.
While I am not an attorney I do ponder why the weapon that shot the alleged armed robber would be needed as evidence in the robbers trail. Under that moronic reasoning someones hands/arms would be evidence if a person physically subdued someone mugging an elder person until the law showed up. So I guess that person would have to be kept in the evidence room until needed. Chief Flynn the new laws are the law which everyone, including the police, have to abide by. Soooooooooo chief, have the law changed, in the meantime get over it.
Below is the video from channel 58TV news in Milwaukee. Unfortunately they do not show the video that was shown on the 10PM news March 8, 2012. That video has Chief Flynn stating his policy. The policy was reinforced by an assistant DA (no cite of any law) in the video.

Just like the divide between the Imperials and Stormcloaks, people are torn when it comes to The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Most of us became enthralled the first time that dragon filled the sky as our head's lay on the executioner's chopping block. We stayed glued to our controllers after hundreds of hours exploring the vast and snowy landscape, completing what felt like thousands of quests, and slaying an endless supply of dragons. We were lucky enough to work through some potentially game-ending glitches and bugs while living the life of a Dragonborn.
Then there are those who hold a grudge against Bethesda for releasing a flawed game on the PlayStation 3 and failing to properly fix the problem in a timely manner. Both groups have their rationale and as I side with the former, I ask that you try to put aside your frustration and anger with Bethesda. Try and forget those long months without a proper fix for the horrible glitches in many PS3 versions of Skyrim. Don't mind the fact we've waited patiently for a successful fix and even longer for the new content our Xbox 360 friends were enjoying over the last several months. It seems Bethesda has fixed the major issues for PS3 gamers (so far) and now that the three downloadable content add-ons are all available on PS3, we can once again pleasantly waste our lives in a fantasy world.
With the release of the Dragonborn DLC on PS3—more of an expansion than today's typical fluffy add-on content—those two divided sides have a perfect reason to come together. Everyone deserves to enjoy this terrific new content. There is a large new world to explore as we're taken away from Skyrim's arctic setting and brought to the Morrowind era's Solstheim Island. With so many new locations to uncover and dungeons to explore, you can easily spend dozens of hours revealing every crevasse of Solstheim's desolate shores, arid planes, and rocky mountains. There is an interesting story complete with a main quest series, plenty of miscellaneous and side quests, new NPCs, new enemies, even new dragon shouts. Heck, you can even ride dragons—that's not as cool as it sounds, though.
All of this new content is great, without a doubt. But it is still tucked into the Skyrim formula. Quests generally send you into a dungeon to recover something then back to your original quest giver who instructs you to ask someone else for help. Seriously, can't you just send me to that person without running your errands? Some of Dragonborn has that standard go-get-me-that quest structure but at least a fair portion is tucked into trippy new settings.
Those trippy new settings come courtesy of the main storyline, which sets you in pursuit of the original Dragonborn. Entering the world of Hermaeus Mora, a Daedric prince, via Black Books is something that feels uniquely unfamiliar to the rest of Skyrim. In these dungeons giant tentacles reach up from the black and acidic water to slap your silly face, the sky is filled with eyeballs, Seekers do their best to set your head spinning as they clone themselves out of your reach, and walls of books create a labyrinth to ensnare the feeble-minded. These dungeons are the true star of the new content. Yes, it's all still enclosed in that Skyrim quest system, but at least the setting feels fresh, even mind-bending.
The bulk of the story quests prepare you to battle Miraak, the original Dragonborn, by eliminating these worship stones scattered throughout the island. These worship stones put the dismal residents under something of a curse. With the help of some new friends, you'll learn how to blow the worship centers to the ground and free the brainwashed inhabitants. It's all a surprisingly enjoyable experience, albeit too brief. After eliminating all the worship stones, collecting the Black Books, and exploring Mora's realm I found myself face-to-face with Miraak. The main story is too fast for its own good and after about five or six hours, you'll have accomplished your mission and be free to do as you please.
Anyone who spent time in Skyrim knows that the main story is not even half the fun; it's not even a quarter of the fun. The same goes for the Dragonborn DLC. While the story quests are enjoyable and worth the short playthrough, the real pleasure comes from the numerous side quests and getting to know the island's residents—you know you're playing a good role-playing game when you want to know more about the random characters you meet in villages and cities. I spent far more time wandering around the island and chatting up random NPCs than I did working through the main quest.
After you finish the main quest, there is yet another unique experience. The highly touted ability to ride dragons is available after you unlock all three words of a new shout. Keep your pants on; it's not nearly as fun as it should be. Your shout allows you to essentially tame a dragon, hop on its spiny back, and go for an on-the-rails ride. You don't have the ability to freely control your beast, instead you give it commands while in the air to lock on enemies, attack said enemies, and land. Neat! That's really all there is to it. The skeptic could put a lot of fault on this feature, but it's only required at one point in the game. After you try it a couple times, you'll probably never think to give it another go.
It is certainly worth noting that the PS3 version has extremely long load times. This is nothing new for Skyrim players, but if you've been away for a while, you'll have to sit patiently for that dungeon to load up properly. In addition, there are a fair amount of recycled voices for NPCs--there are also excellent new additions. Again, this is nothing new for Skyrim, but at times I thought to myself, "wait a minute, aren't you that merchant I met in Windhelm?" If you have been away for a while, you may notice Skyrim hasn't aged all that well. This is especially true if you've played the PC version with user-created mods. Dragonborn, like Skyrim, has some jaw-dropping environments, but it definitely looks grainy on the console.
The Dragonborn DLC is a perfect reason to jump back into Skyrim. With unique dungeons to explore, an interesting island to uncover, new enemies to defeat, a captivating (yet short) story to play through, and tons of side quests, you'll probably once again neglect your job and family for just another hour (or ten) playing Skyrim. What's worse? If you like it you'll probably want to head back to the mainland and waste another year of your life adventuring in some fantasy land. OK, so that's not a bad thing, just a fair warning.
|The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Dragonborn Review by Adam Dolge
-The Final Word-
With its large new map, unique dungeons, and captivating story and side quests, Skyrim's Dragonborn feels far more like a complete expansion than basic add-on content. Familiar issues persist, and riding dragons isn't all that cool, but it's certainly great to play more Skyrim.

BASi hosts in vivo drug discovery workshop at UCLA
Published: May 30, 2014
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Bioanalytical Systems Inc. announced that it hosted a workshop yesterday at UCLA designed to help academic researchers efficiently navigate the in vivo study process that is the foundation of drug discovery, lead compound optimization, and the early phases of regulated drug development.
Candace Rohde-Johnson, Director, Instruments Division at BASi, explained, "In addition to an overview of the drug discovery process, the workshop focused on effectively designing in vivo studies. We covered Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) and non-GLP study designs, as well as model selection, formulation, dosing and sampling methods, group size selection and general study designs for both discovery and pre-clinical studies. The workshop placed special emphasis on study designs that minimize subject discomfort--resulting in better studies overall, and streamlining the path to the ultimate filing of an IND."
BASi President, CEO and CFO Jacqueline Lemke added, "This workshop builds on BASi's recognized strengths in specialty assay and drug discovery, regulatory excellence, and our Culex® automated sampling system. Culex can automatically collect blood, bile, metabolites, dialysates and more from awake and freely moving subjects as small as mice and as large as swine. In contrast to traditional manual sampling, Culex automated sampling saves time, saves money and saves lives while providing better data for studies in pharmacokinetics, drug metabolism and toxicology.
"This workshop at UCLA was the latest step in our effort to expand BASi's reach into the academic drug development community as well as the many smaller, specialty drug development organizations that generally do not have the extensive scientific and regulatory capabilities required to move a drug candidate through the arduous FDA approval process. With BASi's 40-year history of providing world-class research to the pharmaceutical industry, our drug discovery services and proprietary instruments can make a real difference in facilitating the drug development process."

LucidBrakePosted on July 4th, 2015 No comments
LucidBrake is a highly-visible stop light for cyclists, recently named by FreezeHD as one of the top five "must have" cycling innovations.
I bought V1 from the first campaign, and was impressed enough that I want to sell the improved Version 2. Improvements include stronger battery clips, improved battery life, a better cover, additional flash cycles, and a more positive shut-off system. To get yours, go to https://lucidbrake.com/buyalucidbrake.php?affi_code=TG (Look in the top left corner to buy one!)
Mount it on your bike (or trike), backpack, or helmet. Keep it in the RV and when you are ready to switch to two wheels just pop it on using the special fastening system.
Everyone who sees it is impressed, as it really catches the attention (and lets motorists know where you are!). It has four flashing patterns –you select which one you want by however you mount the light– a "slow down" mode, and a "stop" mode.
Mount it, and it turns on when you move. Remove it from its mount, lay if flat, and it turns itself off (I usually pop a battery out just to be sure).
At $75 USD plus shipping, it costs somewhat more than your Walmart bike tail light — but how much is your life and safety worth?
Alex Chen – Central Park South Center DrivePosted on June 30th, 2015 No comments
An Alex Chen lithograph, "Central Park South Center Drive" — mine, and mine alone! (well, except for a couple thousand other copies…)
We're just back from a Baltic Cruise on Royal Princess. In one of the ship's contests, I won a $100 certificate for an art auction. I hadn't gone to any of these on previous cruises, so this was an incentive to see what it was about.
I sat with our tour organizers, Larry and Linda Isenor, who had attended the auctions on other cruises and had purchased several works. At this auction, pictures were selling for hundreds and even thousands of dollars. Not for me! I wanted to give Larry and Linda my certificate and leave, but they assured me that there would be more reasonable items later.
Near the end, some unreserved items (no preset minimum bid) came up, and I bid my $100 for "Central Park South Center Drive" by Alexander Chen, a numbered and signed lithograph, matted and framed. In the end, I got it for $135 less my certificate, which I thought seemed to be a good deal. I also paid $35 USD for an appraisal, which will be mailed to me later.
The work was a "Take Off", meaning as is/where is. It would have cost $90 as baggage on the plane, so I removed the big, heavy, beat-up black frame and discarded it and the glass. The matted print, wrapped in cardboard, survived the trip home as cabin baggage!
Now that I'm home, I looked up Chen, the "master of hyper-realism". A poster version of the print is worth $35 USD, while the numbered and signed prints run about $135. Matted and framed, it might be worth around $300. I'll have to pay about $100 to have it re-framed. Was I burned? Or did I get a good piece of art for a good price?
Student hits bus driver in head, school spokesman wants driver fired.Posted on June 1st, 2015 No comments
"A fed-up school bus driver hits the brakes and opens the door. He tosses a backpack outside, then orders a 13-year-old boy off the bus, forcing him to walk home." So begins a report by 660 News dated 1 Jun 2015. A 10-block walk home. Big deal.
It's a tempest in a local teapot, but it kind of illustrates what's going wrong in our education system. I just watched the video of the kid punching and kicking another student then clouting the school bus driver in the head with a hockey bag. The incident was widely reported by local media. Watch the video taken by the driver's dash-cam turned inwards.
Attacking the driver in such a fashion endangers the entire ridership of the bus. Granted there may be some issues with not delivering a students to his stop, but MO the driver's action of ejecting the student(s)–which he appears to have done with firmness but without violence–was both fair and reasonable and provided immediate consequences.
I also think that Edmonton Catholic Schools spokesperson Lori Nagi is way off the mark. "The driver could have called 911″, she says. Sure, involve already over-worked police staff in a minor matter. "He could have pulled over and waited for things to settle down." Sure, stop the bus and wait, and make everybody else on the bus late. I don't think so.
The miscreant(s) involved were removed promptly and everybody else, I assume, got home safely and on time. The driver appears to me to have acted for the greatest good of the greatest number of students.
"The bottom line for our district is that safety of all students comes before anything else," Nagy is quoted as saying. Wow, letting students attack the driver of a moving school bus really ensures the safety of the other students. But instead of demanding that the vicious little creepoid be charged with assault and suspended indefinitely, she wants the bus driver fired. Yup, coddle the criminal, punish the victim.
Her attitude of defending and supporting the juvenile delinquents and blaming the bus driver seems likely to encourage future misbehaviour because the little $@!#$s know that they can get away with it. To such students, a one-week suspension is not a punishment but a holiday.
The bus driver was right and Nagy is wrong. Riding the school bus is a privilege, not a right. Let 'em walk until they smarten up.
The Mystery of Giles EarlyPosted on January 15th, 2015 3 comments
Giles Early or Earley lived with the Gray family for at least eight years.
He first appears with the family in Norton, Kansas, on the 1875 state census, where he is listed as J. Earley, 7 (born c. 1868), Male, White. According to this census, Early was born in Minnesota and came to Kansas from that state, so he did not come with the Grays from Illinois.
He's still there in 1880, age 10 or 11 (born c. 1869 or 1870) listed as Early Giles with Gray Nathan, Gray Sarah, Gray Alice, and Gray Addie. He is shown on that census as born in Illinois, his father born in Ohio and his mother in Pennsylvania, same as Alice and Addie. The earlier census is probably more accurate about his place of birth.
He is mentioned in family letters – "I don't know where Giles went, he is as lazy as ever." (Ella to JK, 13 Jan 1883; he would have been around 14). Two years later, he's gone. He is not with the Grays on the 1885 state census, and I can't find him elsewhere, nor can I find a death record. Who was he and why was he raised by the Grays?
Thomas Albert Gray recalls that a man named Early worked for the family in Millet, another clue that perhaps the families are related in some way.
1910 NostalgiaPosted on December 19th, 2014 No comments
Got another one of those emails filled with "statistics" of dubious value. With accurate information from reputable sources so readily available online, it always amazes me that people will make up — and believe, and forward — shit like this.
1910 Ford
read all the statistics under the photo.
This has only been 104 years ago…Amazing!!!
Show this to your friends, children and/or grandchildren!
The year is 1910, over one hundred years ago. What a difference a century makes!
Here are some statistics for the Year 1910:
(applies to the USA)
These "stats" are designed to make you nod and say, "Wow, I didn't know that!". But DO you know that? Are the "facts" that come in an anonymous, unsourced email accurate?
The average life expectancy for men was 47 years. Google "US Life expectancy 1910″ for the surprising answer.
Fuel for this car was sold in drug stores only. [False]. "The first public gasoline servers were simply called filling stations. They were just curbside hand pumps, and they began appearing in 1907…. The gas station started taking shape around 1910. By 1920 it was well-defined. It was a small building with gas pumps in front. But it also offered supplies — tires, batteries, and oil. It offered simple services — lube jobs and tire patching." http://www.uh.edu/engines/epi975.htm
Only 14 percent of the homes had a bathtub. Depends on what you mean by "bathtub", I guess. Up to the early 1950s, people bathed in a large copper or galvanized steel tub. It was still a bathtub!
Only 8 percent of the homes had a telephone. Could be.
There were hentai porn only 8,000 cars and only 144 miles of paved roads. False, and ridiculously so, but look it up yourself. In 1910 alone, Henry Ford built and sold almost 20,000 cars! http://www.greatachievements.org/?id=3786 gives the total number of vehicles on US roads in 1910. People who write these emails got no brains and do no research. You got brains, so do a little research, find out how many miles of roads were paved (and be careful how you define "paved": does it include macadam, brick, cobbles, etc.?) in 1910.
The maximum speed limit in most cities was 10 mph. I think whoever wrote this reworked an email about 1850.
The tallest structure in the world was the Eiffel Tower ! [True!] If you google "world's tallest building 1910″ you'll get a different answer — but the Eiffel Tower is not considered a building. Do you know what is the tallest structure in the world today?
The average US wage in 1910 was 22 cents per hour.
Check the wages and prices here: http://usa.usembassy.de/etexts/his/e_prices1.htm. Or for some really detailed data, try http://libraryguides.missouri.edu/c.php?g=28284&p=174165.
The average US worker made between $200 and $400 per year. At $0.22 hr, that's a not lot of hours each week (about 18 hours a week for fifty weeks gives $200 annually, in a time when the average work week was 45 hours). The math doesn't work — try it! A lot of part-time work and unemployment? Other sources disagree with these figures.
A competent accountant could expect to earn $2000 per year,
A dentist $2,500 per year, a veterinarian between $1,500 and $4,000 per year,
And a mechanical engineer about $5,000 per year.
More than 95 percent of all births took place at HOME. Perhaps many women would prefer to have a home birth rather than a hospital birth (and potential exposure to superbugs) — but are they given much choice? I wonder what the infant survival rate was in 1910, compared to 2014, and the cost of a birth in 1910 vs 2014.
Ninety percent of all Doctors had NO COLLEGE EDUCATION!
Instead, they attended so-called medical schools,
Many of which were condemned in the press AND the government as 'substandard.' Yeah, the history of modern medicine is a fascinating topic!
Sugar cost four cents a pound.
Eggs were fourteen cents a dozen.
Coffee was fifteen cents a pound.
Check those prices — are they accurate? The figures are readily available online.
Then compare prices with the average hourly wage. How long did a man have to work in 1910 at $0.22/hr to buy a dozen eggs and a pound of coffee? About an hour and twenty minutes. With coffee at $10 a pound and eggs at $2 a dozen (in my corner of Alberta, anyway) a minimum-wage employee– US average 7.25/hr as of Jan 1, 2014–works about 1 hour and forty minutes. . If anything we've lost ground.
BTW, The average income is skewed upwards by all the millionaires and billionaires, then and now; the median income or modal income are more accurate measures.
Most women only washed their hair once a month, [not sure how you'd prove THAT!] and used Borax or egg yolks for shampoo.
There was no such thing as under arm deodorant or tooth paste. Google "toothpaste invented" or "invention of toothpaste" and find out the truth about toothpaste in seconds! Do the same for underarm deodorant.
Canada passed a law that prohibited poor people from entering into the country for any reason. [False? True?] The immigration act of 1910 introduced a measure by which all immigrants to Canada would have to possess at least $25 upon landing as a way of proving to government officials that they weren't destitute. Do we have similar provisions today, to prevent destitute immigrants from becoming "a burden on society" and sucking up resources best devoted to Canadian citizens?
The five leading causes of death were:
1. Pneumonia and influenza
2, Tuberculosis
3. Diarrhea
4. Heart disease
5. Stroke
Probably true. The influenza epidemic of 1911 apparently killed more people than died in WW1. Check it out for yourself.
The American flag had 45 stars. Could be.
The population of Las Vegas Nevada was only 30! False
A search of the 1910 census for Las Vegas NV gives 3,333 residents in the census district (I didn't bother to check municipal figures). Demographia gives the population as 2000 in 1910. Las Vegas was incorporated as a city in 1911, with a vote of 168 for and 57 against (total 225). Either number is a far cry from the 30 given in the email.
Crossword puzzles [false], canned beer [true], and iced tea [false] hadn't been invented yet. The first crosswords appeared in England during the 19th century, says this site. The first beer was available in cans beginning in 1935.[2] "Seen as a novelty at first, dur mobile porn ing the 1870s [iced tea] became quite widespread. Not only did recipes appear in print, but iced tea was offered on hotel menus, and was on sale at railroad stations. Its popularity rapidly increased after Richard Blechynden introduced it at the 1904 World's Fair in St. Louis." ~ Wikipedia
There was no Mother's Day (sort of false, sort of true; the first was in Virginia in 1908 but it didn't receive national recognition until 1914) or Father's Day (likewise, also started in Virginia in 1908 and celebrated in various places until 1910, but only went national in the 1930s)
Two out of every 10 adults couldn't read or write [false] and only 6 percent of all Americans had graduated from high school.
This is easy to check by census data, which recorded the self-reported ability to read or write. According to the NAAL, the 1910 illiteracy rate of persons over 14 was 7.7%. That is roughly 8 of a hundred (2 out of 10 would be 20 out of a hundred) at a time when a person of 14 was expected to do a day's work as an adult. In 1910 a "good" education was Grade 6 to 8 and higher education was frequently unavailable or unaffordable, so the number graduating from high school may not be relevant.
Eighteen percent of households had at least one full-time servant or domestic help. Oddly enough, this may be true. My genealogical work shows that in the 1800s most farm families of any substance had a house servant and one or more "hired hands" as farm helpers. Not sure about 1910.
There were about 230 reported murders in the ENTIRE U.S.A. ! [false]
I've seen similar nostalgically low figures in other emails–we want to believe that times were gentler then. Sorry! Not so. Several Internet sources report a homicide rate in 1910 of 4.6 per 100,000. (Google "1910 homicide rate"). The U.S. census of 1910 reported a U.S. population of 92,228,496. Simple arithmetic reveals a homicide number of 4,242 for that year.

Oh, maybe not. Gossip still abounds, and people still regard the past with rose-colored glasses – but today people gleefully spread falsehoods to all their friends with the click of a Forward button!
I guess people just want to believe that "things were better then" and are too lazy to seek the facts. So I've done some of this for you. Enjoy.
Hey — before you forward this to everybody, why not check out one more of the "facts" in the list?
Football and Square DancingPosted on October 25th, 2014 No comments
Last Tuesday was the first lesson in our new square dance group at Devon, Alberta. I'd rented a Bose L1 celebrity porn Compact to play with, and this was a good opportunity to test it out.
To my surprise, when I turned down the music and was greeting the dancers, I could hear what sounded like a football game coming over the L1. It was faint, and people could hear my voice fine, but they could also hear the radio. We ignored it for the first part of the lesson, because when the music was playing, we couldn't hear it much.
During the lesson, I noticed that when I shut the mic off, the radio sound quit. Aha! At the first break, I changed to a shorter mic cord. No more game in the background.
I later asked the guy at Long & McQuade, where I had rented the Bose, and he said that it sometimes happened. Could have been coming from the power in the building, and plugging into a different receptacle might have helped; could have been a cross-wired mic cord, and I could check the connections (did that when I got home, all okay); but changing the cord showed that the first cord was just the right length to be an antenna and pull in the radio signal.
Would never have dreamed that could happen — but at least I had a spare cord and was able to fix the issue quickly and still look fairly professional.

Mixer arrived, Alesis Multimix8USBFX from Axe Music in Edmonton, $150 with free shipping. Good deal. Having fun playing with all the settings. A bit disappointed in the effects, which are more limited than I expected: many of the settings sound identical. Maybe they'll be better with the Bose?

Do Us a Flavour? Ick and Meh!Posted black porn on September 17th, 2014 No comments
Had the opportunity to try two of Lay's new Canadian potato chip flavors.
First up: Bacon Poutine. On opening the bag, I did note a scent of bacon. The chips do taste a bit like bacon, a bit like gravy. Couldn't get any sense of cheese. They were okay, not as good as BBQ by any means. Perhaps that's because I found the flavours quite subtle, without the tang or bite of BBQ. My wife ate a couple but didn't want more. Neither did I, really, but we'd paid for the bag, so I washed them down with rum & cola. They weren't all that bad, just sort of "Meh!".
Next in line: Cinnamon Bun. We both had left these sitting on the counter for a couple of days. Neither of us really wanted to open them. When do you eat cinnamon buns? For breakfast, or maybe a coffee time snack. We couldn't quite manage the idea of having potato chips for breakfast, so finally we opened them with an afternoon coffee. Okay, they smell of cinnamon. So far, so good. Wife ate one, refused the rest. I had two and didn't want any more. We wound up throwing the rest away. Gotta be the worst flavor imaginable for potato chips. Ick. I can't believe that anybody would vote for these. De gustibus non est disputandum, I guess.
After this inauspicious beginning, do we dare try the other two (jalapeno mac 'n' cheese and tzatziki)?
