Automation: What is an AGV?
Recent ProMat and North American materials handling shows have seen the introduction of automatic guided carts (AGCs), mobile robots and, more recently, hybrid lift trucks to the AGV portfolio. What's more, new players have entered the market, such as Kiva Systems, RMT, Seegrid, SI Systems, INRO and Kollmorgen. Lift truck manufacturers are also getting into the game, including Toyota Material Handling USA, Crown, Mitsubishi Caterpillar Forklift America (MCFA) and The Raymond Corp.
All these new vehicles may have you wondering: Just what is an AGV? Look closer, however, and you find that each of these disparate vehicles shares something in common: They open up potential new opportunities for the market if end users embrace them. That last caveat is a big if.
In some respects, the definition of an AGV has not changed in years, argues Mark Longacre, marketing manager for JBT Corp. and chair of the automatic guided vehicle product section at the Material Handling Industry of America (See 60 seconds with Mark Longacre, p. 58). "We define an AGV as a computer-controlled mobile robot used to move materials around a facility," Longacre says. "The way they look and what they can do has changed, but there's nothing in that definition that didn't apply 10 years ago."
In fact, Longacre contends that even the interest of lift truck manufacturers in the AGV space is a blast from the past: In the late 1990s, FMC Technologies, JBT's predecessor, teamed up with Hyster to develop the HyBot, an automated walkie pallet truck.
Longacre may have a point. Conventional AGV providers like Murata Machinery USA and Savant Automation are busier than ever: "There are still plenty of pallets around, and we're seeing plenty of demand for conventional fork-style AGVs that interface with our automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS)," says Tom Meyers, national sales manager for Murata's logistics and automotive division.
"There are a lot of great new developments out there from other companies," adds Garry Koff, president of Savant Automation. "But in my world, most end users can't justify them. They can justify an AGV that is user friendly, non-intimidating and easy to maintain."
Still, these new developments are hard to ignore. It is a story told through the product introductions at the materials handling shows, going back to 2005.
ProMat 2005: Automatic guided carts
At the 2005 ProMat, Jervis B. Webb introduced a new type of vehicle to the broad market: the automatic guided cart or AGC. Webb had been toying with the design since 2002, according to Brian Stewart, president and co-CEO of the Daifuku Webb Holding Co., which now owns Webb. An AGC was basically an AGV stripped down to its core: A simple, light-duty platform designed to follow magnetic tape and deliver relatively light loads of around 1,200 pounds from point A to point B. Where an AGV used a roller bed or forks to carry a load, a cart was designed to move a frame that held the product it was moving.
Carts didn't make much of a splash at the show. Conventional AGV makers dismissed them as a novelty. But Webb believed there was a market. "We believed we had come up with a low-cost solution that reduced customers' costs for getting into AGVs," says Stewart.
Webb initially promoted them to the auto industry as an alternative to tuggers to deliver parts to the line. Over time, AGCs have evolved into flexible, moving production lines. "With the right kind of frame, the cart can move an assembly from one workstation to another without bolting conveyor to the floor," says Stewart. "If your production needs change, it's very easy to move the tape and create a new layout for the line."
Today, carts are a significant reason for the rise in the number of AGV units being produced every year. "A smart cart is now in the $15,000 range," says Stewart. "And, with production volumes rising, we're getting to the point where we will be able to go into mass production mode, like a lift truck, and bring the price down to a point where you can't ignore them in distribution environments." That includes carts that can move loads of up to 5,000 pounds, Stewart adds. "Our goal is to have a world-class mass production line within the next seven to 10 years," he says.
NA 2006: Automatic truck loading
Webb was back with another innovation in 2006. Set up at its booth was a mini-warehouse, including a pallet pick up station, pallet rack for putaway and picking, and an enclosed space the width of a trailer with a dock plate. During the demonstration, the AGV automatically picked up a palletized load from the staging area and then loaded it into the pallet rack or onto the back of the trailer.
Two years of research and development with Anheuser-Busch led up to that moment. "There were conveyorized systems for automatically loading trailers, but the conveyor was bolted down and you needed to own your own fleet of customized trailers," Stewart says. "Anheuser-Busch challenged us to come up with a vehicle that could replace fixed hard automation. We thought we could do it, and they had some creative people who worked with us."
Webb was not alone. At that same time, Egemin and Transbotics were also touting automatic trailer loading technology, or ATL as it's now known, and JBT had vehicles in development.
Five years later, ATLs are still a niche vehicle, but customers are adopting them. JBT, for instance, has installed ATLs at three plants for one major soft drink bottler with plans to roll out five more plants.
What's more, the capabilities have evolved beyond simply loading pallets one at a time. Egemin, for instance, can also unload trailers, work with pallets or slipsheets, and adapt to multiple sized pallets and loads on the same truck. In addition, one of Egemin's customers is using an ATL to load pallets 20 deep in a pushback rack system. "That's a direct result of ATL technology," says Mark Stevens, vice president of business development for Egemin.
But what automatic truck loading has really done is expand the business case for AGVs.
"Truck loading is an enabler," Stevens says. "Not the end game."
ProMat 2007: Mobile robots
In 2007, RMT Robotics, Kiva Systems and Seegrid introduced mobile robots to the industry. They were to AGVs what go karts are to Formula 1 race cars: small vehicles designed to move small loads. But what really distinguished them is that they had unique guidance systems that didn't require fixed paths, such as magnetic tape on the floor or reflectors and lasers, to find their way around the facility. Instead, they could learn to find their way to almost any spot in a facility.
Like ATLs before them, they were the buzz of the show, even if no one quite knew what to do with them.
Initially, at least, all three vendors resisted the term AGV, although each makes a vehicle that fits Longacre's definition. Part of the reason is that they didn't want to be identified with the baggage that went along with early AGV systems. "Back in the 1970s, AGVs were touted as a technology that would revolutionize the way materials handling was done," says Bill Torrens, director of sales and marketing for RMT Robotics. "Many of those early vehicles never lived up to the hype and some early adopters had negative experiences."
While each has taken a different path to the market, all three used their small size and navigation capabilities to their advantage. Kiva, for instance, doesn't think of itself as a vehicle company at all, says Mitch Rosenberg, vice president of marketing and product management. Instead, "We are a warehouse control software company," he says. "We've created a software platform for goods-to-person picking that happens to have these devices that are part of a broader order fulfillment solution."
RMT, like Kiva, saw an opportunity for a low-cost, flexible vehicle that could do more than move a heavy pallet from point A to point B. "We saw the benefit of AGVs in promoting the lean direction of manufacturing," says Torrens. "We developed a vehicle with a navigation system that lets the vehicle go anywhere it needs to go based on what it sees in real time. That lets us deliver what's needed at the line, when it's needed and in the quantity that's needed in an expedited fashion."
And while Seegrid began by carving a niche for itself by enabling case-picking solutions, the company is now licensing its vision-based navigation system to lift truck manufacturers, including Raymond and Linde, which will use the technology to transform lift trucks into automatic guided vehicles.
As an executive from Seegrid explained, "Supply chain professionals want the ability to integrate unmanned distribution activities with their warehouse management system (WMS). A vision-based guidance system gives you the flexibility to easily send the robot wherever you want it to go so that it can be interwoven with the WMS just like a lift truck operator. That's where you add value."

Playwright of a new musical JUDY GARLAND - World's Greatest Entertainer. This show is a takeoff of the '70's tv show THIS IS YOUR LIFE. But Judy's guests are Liza, Frank and Dean. The 4 of them sing their signature tunes. Opening in April 2015

A strange sense of awareness enveloped Aisle Say 10 minutes into Act I of BOEING BOEING. I perused the full house. If not Manti Te'o's gfriend, there was another phantom, another spirit with a presence.
Then Jeffrey Hawkins (Robert) fumbled with his suitcases. The mystery was solved. That specter was Jerry Lewis. This farce, penned by a French writer, was written for the way that country appreciates comedy; excessively broad and physical. It was made into a movie with Lewis, perfectly cast. That is why he is so much more revered en François than here in his homeland.
The first part of Act I was pure French humor; a bit ridiculous and overdone. The plot would have proceeded quicker sans the absurd pratfalls and suitcase fumbling. Happily, from mid-point and then for the entire second act, the action proceeds at a pretty - and humorous - pace.
Bernard is a busy man; busy and extremely organized. He is "engaged" to 3 'stewardi' employed at 3 different airlines: American, Lufthansa and Al Alitalia. He knows their travel schedules intimately and each woman resides at his swank Paris apartment during "lay"overs.
Friend Robert from Wisconsin says this is polygamy. Bernard replies: "They don't think it's immoral. Why should I?" But, mais oui, the 3 women know nothing of the other two!
Ah, the '70's, those halcyon days of "Coffee, tea or me?" Bernard's pad, designed by Stephanie Hansen, is replete with a sunken living room, Mies van der rohe chairs and the classic bean bag chair - soon to be flung hither and yon.
The "stews" fit their national stereotypes as snug as their fitted uniforms by designer Kim Krumm Sorenson. The trio are brilliant comediennes. Sara Bruner (Gloria) creates that wonderful yet loathsome Texas drawl that make Northerners wince; Gisela Chipe - who looks like Catherine Zeta-Jones younger sister - (Gabriella) plays 'petulant' perfettamente; Heidi-Marie Ferren (Gretchen) of course must go Teutonic on us. She's only missing the stag horn helmet.
However, it is Gretchen's "you VILL do this, you VILL do that" to Robert, a latter day Mr. Peepers, that sets the comedy in gear. Now it's all downhill and the doors are banging shut and the laughs are flying high like planes circling Orly Airport.
Sarah Doherty (Berthe) is Bernard's maid and in cahoots with him regarding the tantalizing trio of stews. She rebuilt her characterization in Act II, after surviving the forced farce of early Act I.
At first blush, the Lothario character Bernard is not suitably cast. But, when weather forces planes to be turned back and all the women to return to the apartment simultaneously, his machismo dissolves like The Wicked Witch receiving Dorothy's pail of water. Very funny bit.
Director Steve Tague is a member of UD REP Ensemble and Aisle Say has had the pleasure of seeing him in many roles. He was a perfect choice due to his facility with dialects. It is great to see a growing relationship between these two august companies.

Superb wallet, but I wish a previous design was still available
I've had a Bosca Nappa Vitello wallet like this for at least 15 years and it is still in beautiful shape -- the only sign of wear is inside the wallet where the bills go. I was just in Italy and couldn't find any wallets of comparable value and nothing with this design, and so I ordered a new one from Bosca. One leather store in Italy told me that soft leather wallets don't last very long, and that's certainly not true of the one that I have. My only disappointment is that the new wallet is designed differently than the one I have, and I really prefer the old design. On my current wallet, the credit card slots are vertical, rather than horizontal, which keeps the cards from accidentally falling out (because the openings point to the fold in the wallet, rather than the open side). The horizontal slots also make the new one a little longer on the one side which means it doesn't fit in pants pockets quite as well.

Fantastic quality
I recently purchased and received a Bosca Nappa Vitello wallet. It's the third of these I've had over the years and I wouldn't think of owning any other. The craftsmanship is superb and it's designed to carry many items and still maintain a very slim profile. It fits comfortably in my pocket and wears well. I often receive complements when I show it to my friends. It's a great value for a fine wallet. I highly recommend it.

The Grape Race
The Grape Race is the ultimate team building event at the Chateau Élan Winery. This hilarious assembly of challenges is the perfect way to enforce workplace dynamics and illustrate the power of team work. This is a series of events, culminating to a race to the end while embracing the elements of collective thought and humility.
The Grape Race starts at the grape launch. Teams are divided in half where one part of the team will gather and launch as many grape clusters as they can over to their team mates who wait to catch the precious fruit by some rather unconventional means. You only have a few minutes to catch as many grapes as possible before moving on to the next challenge.
Teams race over with their coveted grapes to the next challenge where a half barrel awaits. Teams load their fruit into the barrel and begin stomping away, straining as much juice from their bounty as possible. Teams are to fill a carafe, catching each drop of precious nectar until the carafe has been filled to the line and then it's on to the next challenge.
A wine tasting awaits our groups as they are to taste wine from a traditional Spanish Porron. The trick is entrusting your teammate with good aim as they are in charge of the service! First team to finish their Porron moves on to the next challenge.
The next stage of the race is the cork tower. Teams convene to stack the corks to the proper measurement as the pressure mounts with the finish line just in sight. The team who completes their tower moves to the final leg of the race!
The finale to the Grape Race is Corsa Della Botti, a traditional Italian barrel race. The first team to roll their barrel across the finish line has won the Grape Race!! To the victor go the awards!
Pricing: $500 Set-Up Fee and $35 per person. Maximum 20 people per race. Larger groups can be accommodated with consecutive races. Attire is athletic wear, tennis shoes are highly recommended. Goggles and ponchos are provided.

HMMMM me thinks if a leo dont know that a 14" barreled pistol grip firearm is legal he wont know the differance between that and a SBS,AOW , etc and he will arrest any way.
If you can buy it at the sporting good store the LEO,s need to learn what is legal thats there job. It not going to matter if it a $200, $5, or free registrtation/stamp if the LEO dont know the law your screrwed.
aside from the cool gangstsa YO bitch factor there not likely worth a shit. Honestly how many of you are actualy going to clear a room or need to pull it out of you car in self defense?????? Having one is just asking for unneeded attention IMO. gun rights aside who really needs one??? I doubt its much fun to shoot. Id rather have a 18" barrel at least it would be usable as a club if I ran out of shells.
how many have actualy fired a shot gun in a closed room??? Louder than I want to deal with.

I was tagged yesterday by Flo of Butterfly Quilting as one of her nominees for the Liebster Award. I'm sure some of you have seen (and maybe even received) this award. It's for us "little guys"—blogs with fewer than 300 followers.
What a great idea. There are so many blogs I read that I think deserve more attention, so I'm happy to nominate a few myself:
• Don't Call Me Betsy. Elizabeth is funny, creative, and just a little bit obsessive, so you know she makes a fabulous quilt blogger. : ) She always has amazing projects in the works.
• From the Blue Chair. Kati makes incredible quilts, and lot of them–with three kids ages 3 and under at home. Wow!
• Sewn by Leila. Amazing modern quilts, with some great sewing tips thrown in.
• The Girl Who Quilts. Love her work, and she's doing a giveaway right now!
So go check out all these fabulous ladies. And thank you, Flo, for naming me as one of your fave blogs to read. I'm just a mom who sews obsessively while my kids are either napping or at school. The fact that anybody finds that remotely interesting just makes my day. : )

ZF-3500: Uncaught exception 'Zend_Search_Lucene_Exception' with message 'chmod(): Operation not permitted
When I try to re-create the index, I get this error. Let me know what to do? I'm using ZendFramework-1.0.3.
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Zend_Search_Lucene_Exception' with message 'chmod(): Operation not permitted' in ~/Zend/Search/Lucene/Storage/Directory/Filesystem.php:189 Stack trace:

I actually wrote a php script to create index, which is being called by a cron file.
I will appreciate if someone gives me a solution.
Thanks, Kishore
The problem is that it is using chmod() instead of umask(), which is probably a bad thing for a library to do. This is bad when the owner of the file is not the server user (e.g., publisher:apache or publisher:www) but you do not want to give the user (in this example, publisher) sudo rights so that it can change ownership to apache:apache.
What this should do is umask() in Zend_Search_Lucene_Storage_File_Filesystem prior to the fopen() call (which is passed w+b to create the file if it does not exist). The umask should be 0111 (for the default of 0666):
$previousUmask = umask(0111);
The call to chmod() should be removed, or at least there should be a call to fileperms() first to see if the permissions are correct. By correct, I mean between 0660 and 0777. I'm not sure why the default is 0666.
PS Matthew, there was an idea to use umask, but it has problems in multi-threaded environment. See also discussion at [ZF-2779].
Updating for the 1.6.0 release.

I have an MBA from Harvard, and I worked for 15 years in finance. So I know all about the importance of avoiding financial clutter—but I recently got smacked in the head by it anyway. My husband and I live in the Southwest, the site of several wildfires last summer. As homes burned to the ground, it dawned on me that I wasn't sure what our expensive homeowners' insurance covered. When I pulled out the policy statement, I discovered that it was 30 pages of all-but-indecipherable insurance lingo. Plowing through it left me feeling overwhelmed and worried. Now I had information about what my insurance covered, but I didn't have understanding. That 30-page policy felt like clutter, because even though I could put my hands on the paperwork, I still didn't know if I had what I needed to protect my family.
As my experience shows, financial clutter can reach far beyond not knowing where you've stashed important documents. Rather than a messy pile of papers, it's a mental state that stems from the panic we all feel when the complexity of the modern financial world intersects with the unknown—i.e., with risk. The emotional form of financial clutter is very common, and while it's true that the Internet has delivered an abundance of personal-finance information into our lives, the reality is that our collective financial sanity, security and serenity are at an all-time low. I frequently travel around the country talking to women about money, and I hear it over and over. We all need financial clarity in order to protect our families and our futures—but many of us feel unsure how to achieve it.
Click here for the three most common types of financial clutter that I've observed in my own life and in the lives of other women.

Husky Baseball players continue to excel off the field after collectively averaging a 3.03 GPA in the classroom during autumn quarter and by volunteering at Eckstein Middle School's after-school YMCA program.
The sun gods were on the Huskies' side when the UW Baseball team was greeted with cloudless, blue skies and mild temperatures as they took the field for the first time as a full squad on Friday.
In the final installment of three previews, GoHuskies.com takes a look at the Washington baseball team's pitchers and catchers. The first day of full squad practice is Friday, Jan. 24.
In the second installment of three previews, GoHuskies.com takes a look at the Washington baseball team's infielders and outfielders.
Washington begins full-squad practices on Friday, Jan. 24 and starts the 2014 baseball season on Friday, Feb. 14 with a double-header against Air Force and Michigan at the Texas State Tournament. Coach Lindsay Meggs sat down with GoHuskies.com to talk about numerous subjects, including his team's progress since fall practice, what it's like to watch Husky Ballpark go up around him and the prospects for the upcoming season.
The Pac-12 Networks announced its 2014 television schedule for baseball and the Huskies are slated to appear at least 11 times on the network.
The Husky Baseball team culminated three days of competiton in as part of the Omaha Challenge on Tuesday in the Dempsey Center and when it was all said and done only one team could emerge victorious. The seven-man squad, the Rangers -- consisting of Brandon Choate, Erik Forgione, Alex Schmidt, Will Sparks, Jared Fisher, Alex Hardy and Tyler Davis -- won the tug-a-war over the Nighthawks to clinch bragging rights for the fall.
Washington Coach Lindsay Meggs inked six players to national letters of intent for the 2014-15 baseball season, he announced on Monday. Two players hail from in-state, three from California and one from Nevada.
Eight games against teams that appeared in the 2013 College World Series and the opening of new Husky Baseball Stadium on March 21 against Arizona highlight the 2014 baseball schedule for Washington.
The Purple team bounced back from a 10-6 loss against Gold that evened the Purple and Gold World Series at 2-2, to win 3-2 in a one-inning tiebreaker and claim the end-of-fall championship on Sunday at Everett's Memorial Stadium.
Washington Baseball's Purple team broke out with a 7-1 win over the Gold squad Thursday at Titon Stadium on the campus of Edmonds Community College to grab the 2-1 series advantage in the Huskies' end-of-fall Purple & Gold World Series.
Mitch Bevacqua hit a sacrifice fly in the seventh inning to win the game for the Gold team, 5-4, and even the Purple & Gold World Series at one game apiece.

The extraordinary new novel in the number-one New York Times best-selling series.
A Japanese cargo ship cruises the eastern Atlantic near the Azores- when it bursts into flames. A gang of pirates speeds to take advantage of the disaster - when their boat explodes. What is happening in that part of the world? As Kurt Austin, Joe Zavala, and the rest of the NUMA(r) Special Assignments Team rush to investigate, they find themselves drawn into the extraordinary ambitions of an African dictator, the creation of a weapon of almost mythical power, and an unimaginably audacious plan to extort the world's major nations. Their penalty for refusal? The destruction of their greatest cities.
Filled with the high-stakes suspense and boundless invention unique to Cussler, Devil's Gate is one of the most thrilling novels yet from the grand master of adventure.
Check out more of the NUMA Files.

"Another five star!"
Definitely Yes. Story had many characters, much action, good plot development. Much back and forth between scenes / characters. Found myself "rewinding" to make sure I hadn't missed anything. Would eagerly listen to this book again now that I better understand the twists and turns in the plot. Could now listen continuously without having to occasionally "rewind."
Almost all of CC's books utilize a similar type of flash from one scene to another. Several characters appear in CC's books. Each set of characters has a small subplot related to the major plot.
Scott Brick is phenomenal in his portrayal of male, female, and foreign dialect voices. No problem ever identifying what role he is playing at any given moment.
The dramatic escape from the minisub and the utilization of the robot Rapunzel in this escape.
I NEVER hesitate to burn a credit for a CC book narrated by Scott Brick. I've NEVER been disappointed. Five star in all categories!!
Scott has a voice that has been tuned to the same frequency as Cussler... he has read a number of them, and now when I hear one he did not read, it takes me a while to start enjoying it..... Cussler and Brick, a number one combo!
"Frequent Listener"
I have to say that I have read or listened to over 12 of Clive Cusslers books, next to the Will Lee book "Chiefs", this is my second favorite book. Suspensful, well read and entertaining. No it isn't great literature, but it kept me interested and engaged. I was a little disappointed in "The Jungle", but this one made up for it.
"My style of story"
This book was exactly for my taste. Fast paced with lot of adventures. Strong characters. Cool mass destruction weapon, which was destructed by the end, of course. I don't know why I haven't read Cussler novels before, but I definitely will.
"loved it"
a great novel. quick read with several unexpected turns in the story. couldn't wait to finish
"Typical Cussler."
Like his books so yes.
No surprised.
Always does an excellent job with Cussler's characters
There is always another one on the way.
Typical Cussler book, but some are getting far fetched.
"Another great Cussler book"
Great adventure, pretty clean book save some language. Love how his stories are combined with history !
Lover of books, videos and sports.
"Good story"
Cannot say, as I didn't read the printed version.
Kurt Austin is a strong character as he usually is, but the Trout's are well characterized and an integral part of the story.
Scott keeps the pace well and portrayed the Trout's really well.
I could come back to it.
I felt that the previous novel, Medusa, was more intense read, but this is a good story. It just seems to take a while to develop. Abridged version might be better.
I love Clive Cussler!
"Mr Cussler seems to get better and better!"
The narrator is wonderful. He brings each character to life and uses his emotion to make you almost feel like you are watching a movie. You cannot find that in a book. Especially if you have poor eyesight, as I do, and must struggle to read normal sized print. But I prefer the audio books over even large print books, as long as the narrator knows what he or she is doing.
My favorite characters are Kurt Austin and Admiral Sandecker. Kurt is a real rough houser. and knows how to deal with the bad guys. He and his partner are quite humorous at times. I have a picture of Admiral Sandecker in my head, from the movie "Sahara" I think they cast the part very well. I like the Admiral because he always has his peoples backs.
He did an excellent job with all the characters. If I have to choose, I would say (I hope I have this name right) Joe Zavala.
If I could have, yes. However, it is quite long. It was compelling and full of action. It is a two part download and I am nearly finished with part two.
No I think I have covered everything.
"Clive at his best"
This one if the best books I have read in a while. Non stop action with humour and romance.easy to read and lives up tithe dirk Pitt starts.
"devils gate part 1"
Not one of Cusslers best, but still an interesting story. I have picked it up and put it down a few times. Not as gripping as some of his stories

Scratchbuilt Victory -class Star Destroyer
Victory-class Star Destroyer is another vessel not seen in movies. It is predecessor of Imperial Star Destroyer, is 900 m long and has seen it's best years during the old republic. Although it's too slow to be too effective in ship-to-ship -combat, it still excels in one area: It is still the largest ship able to enter a planet's atmosphere. Combined with it's heavy weaponry, this attribute makes it excellent ground assault craft.

Dry JackIn 1916, an anonymous monk handed David Jacks the recipe for a distant relative of Cheddar: A sudden success, then overproduction, leading to an abundance of fresh 'Jack' and unintentional extended aging. The result was as hard as Italian grating cheese even more popular with the many immigrants of the area. The rinds were colored in lamp black after the Italian fashion of the time (now rubbed with cocoa and oil as a food-safe alternative, not intended to flavor the interior). Made with raw cows' milk using vegetarian rennet, the distinctive looking classic is sweet and fruity with a rich, caramel-like finish. Act like an Italian American and get a good bottle of red.

A Port Penn man died early Tuesday after his sports utility vehicle struck a concrete pole off of Bayview Road, northeast of Odessa.
Harry C. Spohn, 42, was driving a 2001 Chevrolet Tahoe east on Bayview Road, about a quarter mile west of Betts Road, just before 1:40 a.m., when the vehicle left the southern edge of the roadway and struck the pole, according to Delaware State Police spokesman Cpl. John Day said.
After the collision, the Tahoe continue traveling east while spinning counterclockwise before striking a tree on the passenger side of the vehicle.
Spohn, who was not wearing a seatbelt, was ejected from the Tahoe, which eventually came to a stop on Bayview Road.
He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Day said it is not clear what caused the Tahoe to leave the roadway. An investigation is ongoing.
Bayview Road was closed for about three hours while state police investigated the crash and cleared the roadway.

Position Depth Gives PCC Baseball Reason To Look Up In 2013
The Pasadena City College baseball team has a dilemma as the 2013 season began this weekend, but unlike recent seasons, it's the type of situation the coaching staff can look as a positive. Instead of fielding a set starting nine unit in the field, ninth-year head coach Evan O'Meara's Lancers have a bevy of interchangeable parts and more depth at starting spots than in any previous season.
Through two games and a 1-1 record, the Lancers also have shown able starting pitching, solid defense, and an ability to put players on base.
On Saturday, PCC started knuckleballer Tim Shiba and the freshman from Cathedral High twirled a gem, allowing just seven hits and two earned runs over seven innings in a 10-6 Lancers' win. PCC gave Shiba support right off the bat with five runs in the top of the first inning, keyed by a three-run triple ripped by rightfielder Aaron Correa (La Habra High). Second baseman Bobby Fraijo (San Dimas) led a 13-hit attack by going 3-for-5 with two RBI.
Shiba, who throws more than 80 percent knuckleballs but never faster than 70 miles per hour, kept AVC off balance, getting 14 of his outs on popups and fly balls. Shiba did not strike out a batter and only walked two in a successful Lancers' debut.
It took two parks, two days, two sets of umpires, but PCC and Antelope Valley finished the '13 season opener. It began Friday at Brookside Park's Jackie Robinson Memorial Field with the Lancers and Marauders tied at 3-3 in the 10th inning before the game was halted due to darkness.
The game was completed Saturday at AVC's Marauder Stadium as the Lancers lost a tough one, 4-3, in 11 innings. The regularly scheduled game started 15 minutes following the defeat.
PCC ended up stranding 20 runners on base in the game, including the bases loaded in the 11th. Designated hitter Cody Van-Es (Village Christian) lined out to center field for the game's final out.
In the portion of the game played at Robinson Field, the Lancers rallied from 3-2 down in the bottom of the ninth. Down to their final out and no one on base, catcher Corey Richards (South Pasadena HS) lined his third hit of the game to right field. Fraijo walked, and then PCC tied it when both pinch hitter Cameron Silva (Crescenta Valley) and then third baseman David Halstead (All-South Coast Conference Second Team last year at DH who hit .337, from Eagle Rock High), drew hit by pitches.
In the 11th, AVC would score the go-ahead run on a RBI single by Dakoda Jolliffe.
PCC received another strong starting performance by letterman right-hander Trevor Gleason, who pitched the opener's first seven innings, allowing eight hits, two earned runs, walking one, and striking out eight batters. New starting shortstop Josh Clark (Duarte) reached base five times in the contest on two hits and three walks.
In the second game, leftfielder Tarik El Abour (returner from 2011, San Marino High) also reached base safely five times as he was 2-for-3 with two stolen bases, two runs scored, two hit by pitches, and a walk. Silva, the starting catcher, added two hits as did centerfielder Angelo Robledo (Pasadena High) and Correa.
The defense including a diving catch by El Abour, a terrific catch in left center by Robledo that took away a potential two-run hit, and the highlight reel play of the day by Halstead. The 6-foot-3, 215-pound Halstead ended the third inning by leaping at the third base fence and somehow making the catch on a foul ball hit by Jose Tejada. It ended a rally by the Marauders, who had runners on second and third.
In two games, PCC played 19 different position players, 12 of them getting hits. O'Meara's potential starting unit includes two blue-chip catchers in Richards and Silva and first baseman Christian Ybarra (Silverado High). O'Meara feels he has an exceptional double-play combo in second baseman Fraijo and shorstop Clark. Halstead, Correa, and Jonathan Cuatete (Eagle Rock High) all can play third base with Halstead also in the mix at first base. In the outfield, returner Anthony Martinez (Roosevelt HS) and El Abour both started left field, returner Charles Smith (Muir High) and Robledo started in center field, and Phillip Perez (Cathedral) and Correa played right field. David Kalendarian (South Hills) and Juwan Robins (Burbank High) also have seen action in the outfield.
Returning designated hitter/infielder Tyler Dominguez (Arcadia High, .311 average in 2012), yet another third baseman in Joseph Acosta (Chino Hills), and second baseman Josh Jimenez (Marshall Fundamental) add to the Lancers' infield depth.
"We don't have the star power, sort of like we had in Matt Chavez last year," O'Meara said. "But what we have is true depth. We don't have to stick with one player if that player is struggling, and we can use a pinch hitter or a defensive replacement late in games. Guys are going to see playing time on this team, and the players who are productive are going to start more often than not."
On the pitching staff, O'Meara has a pair of key relievers in returning sophomores Evan Stransky (Temple City High) and Spencer Stute (Duarte).
O'Meara's assistant coaching staff includes Dave Walters, who returns for his third season, and newcomers in Marcos Bugarin, Brian Smith, and Matt Kiewiet. Walters, Bugarin, and Smith are all former Lancer players.
In the home opener, PCC players wore the replica 1938 Pasadena Junior College gray jersey tops that honor alumnus and baseball Hall of Famer Jackie Robinson.
On Tuesday, Feb. 5, the Lancers are back in action with a non-conference game at Grossmont College. First pitch is 2 p.m.
Ball-Yard Notes: Eight players in all return from the 2012 roster, including Daniel Gomez, a pitcher who started several games last season at third base because of a slew of team injuries...Throwing out the ceremonial first pitch Friday was the sport information specialist at the college, Robert Lewis. After "firing" a fastball on the outside corner for an alleged strike, he asked for his arm to be iced down by the PCC training staff.

To help Energy, Honest and Goodwell with their college expenses, click here.
Like anyone who has sent kids off to that anxious first year of college, I steeled myself for panicked e-mails, texts and calls from my freshmen (I had three). When those distress signals didn't come, I wasn't sure whether to feel relieved or rejected. But I definitely felt confused. If they were having such an easy transition, why was I having such a hard one?
I lay awake at night dogged by the questions college counselors had warned me to stifle: Are they fitting in with their hall mates? Getting enough sleep? Surviving the cafeteria?
When I found myself filling out a form for a Snack Attack basket—as if the only way to ward off starvation would be with chips, gummy bears and chocolate—I realized that my world had tipped dangerously off-kilter. I'd spent my adult life proudly childless by choice. Suddenly, at the age of 65, I was sending junk food to dorm rooms, worrying about grades and lamenting the rising cost of tuition.
A bit of background is in order.
As a nonparent, I was a natural, never speculating about what my own little Rachel or David would have looked like or become. Put bluntly, the thought of having children sparked only one feeling in me: utter lack of interest. For years I assumed this was a transient phase, taking for granted, with neither eagerness nor angst, that my biological clock would eventually sync with those of my friends. I might not even have noticed that mine was ticking to a different rhythm if people hadn't felt the need to grill me about my childless state. After decades of being hectored, pitied, quizzed and warned about my disinclination to breed, I finally gave up, rather than give in, and declared my independence from the last lingering stereotype about women by writing The Baby Boon, a manifesto for the rights of the childless.
That was that.
Then I met the trio of young men who wouldn't exactly become my three sons but would just as surely lay claim to my time, my concern, my money and, yes, my reluctant, independent heart.
In 2005, I accepted a Fulbright professorship and moved from New York to Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, a sort of perverse reverse migration from the First to the Third World, comfort to deprivation, calm to chaos. I intended to teach journalism, not bring back three kids in need of higher education. Then again, I also didn't intend to make a documentary about an Afro-fusion band composed of eight musicians who have disabilities, which is what I wound up doing after I heard their amazing group, Liyana, play at a concert.
During the months of filming, three of the young people—the marimba players, whose typically Zimbabwean first names were Honest, Energy and Goodwell—became my friends, enlivening my days with their biting, self-deprecating humor. Amused by his addiction to shoe shopping even though he cannot walk, Energy Maburutse vamped about being the Imelda Marcos of Africa. Goodwell Nzou, the serious one, on occasion jokingly threatened to remove his wooden leg in the middle of the street and use it to punish rude passersby. And Honest Mupatsi, who has hemophilia, warned his friends not to mess with him too hard, lest he bleed all over them and die at their feet.
They tutored me in isiNdebele slang, taught me how to curse in Shona and led me through the contradictions of their lives in a country that sees people with disabilities as cursed.
Shortly after the film, iThemba, was released internationally, Energy, Goodwell and Honest confided, shyly, that they dreamed of studying in America. It was a wildly quixotic fantasy for these reticent teenagers from tiny villages in one of the poorest countries on the planet. As Energy put it, they were "like three ants dreaming of becoming kings when they're the smallest animal in the jungle."

There's an old saying that goes, There's no place like home—except Grandma's. But more and more often the two are beginning to seem like one and the same.
USA Today reports nearly three quarters of grandparents babysit or care for their grandkids weekly, according to a new MetLife Mature Market Institute/Generations United survey.
And if they're not giving time, they're giving money. The newspaper adds that 62 percent of grandparents have given an average of $8,289 to their grandkids in the last five years.
"Grandparents are being asked to help financially and relieve the financial burden of child care, by taking care of their grandchildren," Generations United Executive Director Donna Butts tells USA Today. "They have a tendency to be healthier and want to be involved in their grandchildren's lives. They're not as interested in moving away from their families. If anything, they would move to be closer to their grandchildren."
Another old saying goes, Grandmothers never run out of love—or cookies. Or, apparently, time or cash. Now that's love.

Idaho Men's BasketballGame: 26: Idaho (9-16, 5-10) at Idaho State (5-20, 3-10)When: Saturday, Feb. 23, 2013 (1:00 p.m. PT)Where: Pocatello, Idaho (Reed Gym)Radio: Vandal Radio Network/VandalXtraTelevision: NoneOnline Video: www.B2tv.comLive Stats: www.ISUBengals.com
A Look at Idaho State:The Bengals are 5-20 overall entering Saturday's game. Melvin Morgan leads the team with 12.0 points per game and adds 3.4 rebounds. Chris Hansen averages 11.2 points and 3.4 boards for the Bengals and Tomas Sanchez adds 10.1 points per game. Idaho State shoots an average of 17.1 3-pointers per game, and is a 31.9 percent 3-point shooting team on the season. Idaho State has lost eight of its last nine games, including two overtime defeats in that span. ISU's lone win in that stretch is an 87-51 blowout victory at home against Montana State on Feb. 14.
Idaho State Head Coach Bill Evans:Bill Evans is in his first season as head coach at Idaho State, and owns a 5-20 overall record with the Bengals. Before joining Idaho State he was an assistant at Montana for four seasons, after serving as head coach at Southern Utah University from 1992-2007. His 209 victories at Southern Utah make him the winningest coach in that program's history. Evans is a four-time Coach of the Year and led SUU to its only NCAA tournament berth, a trip to the 2001 tournament where the team lost 67-64 to No. 9 Boston College. SUU finished with a 25-6 record that season.
Idaho VandalsThe Vandals lost another close game on Saturday, falling 67-61 to WAC-unbeaten Louisiana Tech. Idaho led for the game's first 32+ minutes, but the Bulldogs took their first lead of the game with 7:37 to play and Idaho never regained the advantage. LA Tech's lead never grew to more than six points, but the Vandals couldn't get over the hump.
Vandals vs. BengalsThe Vandals own a 58-42 advantage in the all-time series against Idaho State, but the Bengals have won five straight against Idaho. The last time the two teams met was Dec. 29, 2008 when Idaho State won 61-59 in Pocatello, Idaho. The last two games in the series have been two-point ISU victories, as the Bengals also won 71-69 in overtime on Dec. 1, 2007. Idaho's last win was a 75-59 win in Moscow on Feb. 2, 2004.

At what point did the old county fair turn into a For profit organization?
Folks use to bring what they grew and raised to the fair to be judged.. Now its all about the entertainment and the rides. Not much "fair" left in the fair.

Wow what a bunch of crybabies! Only a fool pays for parking at the fair when there are thousands of spots to park for free. Pro Wrestling? Really! Too early for bringing what you grow to the fair besides at that time the farmers need to harvest.

With a fair one-day pass and 25 dollars, 33 dollars total, I can get something to eat. 40 dollars in gas too. 73 dollars for a couple of sandwiches and some fries.
I remember back when it cost 35 cents admission to the fair and it was pure unadulterated fun. Now it is 8 dollars or an increase of some 25 times. Can't look forward to any fun when it costs an arm and a leg.
Everybody has their fingers in the kitty. It's easy to forget about that and go have some fun anyway.
Fairs are fun. Been to a lot of them and the early fairs were the best. Now, it's all shtick.
Still, though, it's fun to have fun and the fair is a good place for that.

Among the most in-demand West Coast sessionmen, Douglas was a key player in producer Phil Spector's "Wrecking Crew," the collective of sideman that Spector used on virtually all his sessions. Douglas played sax and percussion on most of Spector's early-1960s productions, including all of the Ronettes' and Crystals' recordings and such epic singles as Ike and Tina Turner's "River Deep - Mountain High" and the Righteous Brothers' "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'."

Ranked among the nation's most integrated healthcare systems, Community Health Network is Central Indiana's leader in providing convenient access to exceptional healthcare services, where and when patients need them—in hospitals, health pavilions, workplaces, schools and homes.
Immunization is key to preventing disease among the general population. Vaccines benefit both the people who receive them, and the vulnerable, unvaccinated people around them, because the infection can no longer spread. In addition, immunizations reduce the number of deaths and disability from infections, such as whooping cough and chickenpox.
Although children receive the majority of the vaccinations, adults also need to stay up-to-date on certain vaccinations, including tetanus and diphtheria. In addition, those adults who have never had chickenpox or measles during childhood (nor the vaccines against these specific diseases) should consider being vaccinated. Childhood illnesses such as mumps, measles, and chickenpox can cause serious complications in adults.
Many childhood diseases can now be prevented by following recommended guidelines for vaccinations:
A child's first vaccination is given at birth. Immunizations are scheduled throughout childhood, with many beginning within the first few months of life. By following a regular schedule, and making sure a child is immunized at the right time, you are ensuring the best defense against dangerous childhood diseases.
Please visit the Online Resources page for the most up-to-date guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the American Academy of Pediatrics.
As with any medication, vaccinations may cause reactions, usually in the form of a sore arm or low-grade fever. Although serious reactions are rare, they can happen, and your child's physician or nurse may discuss these with you before giving the shots. However, the risks of contracting the diseases the immunizations provide protection from are higher than the risks of having a reaction to the vaccine.
Children may need extra love and care after getting immunized, because the shots that keep them from getting serious diseases can also cause discomfort for a while. Children may experience fussiness, fever, and pain after they have been immunized.
Do not give aspirin to a child who has fever without first contacting the child's physician. Aspirin, when given as treatment for viral fevers in children, has been associated with Reye syndrome, a potentially serious or deadly disorder in children. Therefore, pediatricians and other healthcare providers recommend that aspirin not be used to treat any fever in children.
A clean, cool washcloth may be applied over the sore area as needed for comfort.
If more serious symptoms occur, call your child's physician right away. These symptoms may include:

Gunfire from 'Dome' filming expected Tuesday

This turquoise-hued cardigan is made by Aymara and Quechua women working in Peru, and features bands of traditional Peruvian textile patterns. With a soft drape and hidden zipper, it combines the travel-friendly qualities of alpaca with a flattering cut. 40% alpaca, 30% wool, 30% acrylic.

Indigenous people in South America have raised alpaca for its fleece for thousands of years before Europeans learned about the animal and exported alpaca fiber to Spain in the 16th and 17th centuries. Today this domesticated animal is bred throughout the world, but its native habitat is the Andean altiplano: Ecuador, southern Peru, northern Bolivia, and northern Chile.
Descended from the wild vicuña, alpaca resemble a cross between a llama and a sheep. Its fleece is similar to sheep's wool, but is usually softer, less prickly, and has minimal lanolin content, making it virtually hypoallergenic. Its extreme warmth, relatively light weight, and natural resistance to water make alpaca wool an ideal fabric for the frigid winters of the Andean altiplano. These qualities have also led to a rise in the use of alpaca fiber in outdoor gear and active wear, although it is also easily spun into a fine enough yarn for use in suits and other dress wear.
Most alpaca products can be treated as you would an object made of sheep's woolhand wash using a mild soap and lukewarm water, or dry cleanbut check the tag or manufacturer's instructions for specific instructions.

Delicate, graceful and classy
By Nana Judy
from Olympia WA
This is a beautiful sweater/ jacket that really dresses up a pair of slacks, skirt, or simple black dress. the color is terrific with gray/ white hair. the neckline is very flattering and the wool is not itchy on your skin. i think it runs a little small; i ordered medium, though i am rather short (5'2") and it fits perfectly.

Pretty ALPACA-BLEND Sweater
By Trish
from Massachusetts
About Me Comfort-oriented, Down to earth
This is a very pretty sweater, but I was disappointed that the sweater is described as alpaca when in fact it contains only 40% alpaca. (Note that it is also made up of 30% wool and 30% acrylic - information that is missing in the online product description.) The sweater is lighter in weight than I anticipated, but I still expect to get a lot of use out of it.
