Shelly Ehler, a mom and substitute teacher,was trying to help her children change out of their wet swimsuits while outside by the pool ,after a fun time in the water. While doing this, Shelly came up with an idea for a practical product which she designed by modifying a towel to make it more functional.
The product became known as "Show No." Although appearing on reality television was not in Shelly's orginal product marketing plan, Shelly had an opportunity to be on ABC-TV's Shark Tank. During her episode she made a deal with one of the "Sharks" that didn't turn out as expected and so she went in another direction.
Shelly's new business direction has lead to a new deal with a licensing agreement that is set to begin in a few months. As a result of being on the Shark Tank, Shelly received many e-mails and a variety of proposals.
Today Shelly shared some of the lessons she's learned so far as an entrepreneur. Her entrepreneurial experiences have also lead Shelly to her interest in becoming a motivational speaker.
Demonstrating that life is what happens after all of our plans, Shelly offered these tips and insights.
1. As an entrepreneur, we often has no clue where to go, what to do, or even where to start. If you don't know where to begin:Get Quiet.
There are 3 main voices we hear audibly and within. Thee voices of the outside world, the voice in our head(our ego) and the voice in our heart.
The voice of the outside world and the voice inside our head can often be so loud that we cannot hear the voice in our heart.
2. Connect with that voice of Truth and Love and Let it Guide You. Only in a still, quiet place do you hear that faintest voice of your heart. It is this voice of love, truth, and peace that can guide us to our destiny.
3. Move past Fear.
When we live our life listening to those outside voices and the voice of the ego, we can easily be filled with fear. Fear often paralyzes people from moving forward. They are listening to the wrong voice and they are afraid.
4.Surrender Control, Let Go
When you allow the voice of your heart to guide you, you must surrender control and allow it to guide you. This is not as easy as it sounds. Most entrepreneurs want to stay in control and do things their way.
When we do this and we can, success can be met but more often than not, you will not find true fulfillment of your dream. Only in surrender can the true dream manifest to completion.
5. Be Grateful.
The best thing you can do as an entrepreneur is to be grateful for everything that comes your way.
Be thankful for the doors that open and just as thankful if not more for the doors that close.
When we stand in judgement of something that appears to be wrong we often get stuck.
When we accept what is and appreciate the lesson it is bringing us, we are more able to move forward again in peace.
6. Be open and ready to receive.
Shelly spoke about how important she feels it is to open your heart and to be ready to receive all that the world is bringing your way.
"We are often stuck in "giving" and forget to open ourselves up to "receiving. Many times we feel unworthy. Many times we feel that receiving is selfish."
7. Take the high road.
When someone wrongs you or betrays you or betrays your trust or doesn't live up to their word, the best thing to do is to let it go and move on.
When you sit in the blame and the anger and the betrayal, you go nowhere.
It's like being in a traffic jam on the "low road." Don't get stuck there Shelly explained. There's so much less traffic and you will not fly to your destination.
8. Never give your power away.
When you started on your entrepreneurial journey, this dream was put in your heart. It wasn't put in the heart of another. It was put in you.
You are the one who can hear this voice to see it through to its realization, no one else.
Don't believe that someone else can do it better, or faster, or smarter than you. That is why you were chosen. When you give your power to another and believe they can do it for you, your journey halts or slows down.
This is your dream and it is yours to carry. In another hand it loses its magic.
9. Cooperate, don't compete.
The best thing you can do along the path is to realize your dream is to help another realize their dream as well. There are some who compete who keep everything to themselves. There are those who step on others to get to the top.
Do you really think they can make it to the top that way? Sure, it's possible for them to get to the top, but when and if they arrive, they will most likely not find what they thought they were looking for.
Only those who cooperate and share and lift another along the way will find true success and fulfillment and the true realization of their dream. Success without fulfillment equals a life with fear.
10. When you fall, get back up.
The journey of an entrepreneur is not an easy one. The path we travel is windy and rocky and steep and even slippery at times. We all fall. It's just part of the journey.
Some of us fall over and over again.It's not how many times you fall that matters, it how many times you get back up. So get back up.
When you fall, you are learning an important lesson. That stumbling block was put in your path to teach you something. When you resist learning the lesson, the same block will appear over and over again.
11.Be thankful for the lessons the blocks are trying to show you.
Say thank-you for the blocks, say thank-you for the lessons. When you do this you will find peace. You will find answers about the lesson. You will be better equipped to move forward. These experiences tend to make you stronger. Say thank-you, get up, and keep going.
12.Stay Present.
Your dreams have a power to manifest here and now. The past is gone and the future has not yet come. We spend too much time focusing on our regrets of the past and our worries about the future. Be focused on the present.
The only moment is now. Try and keep your thoughts present
13 Pay attention to your Enthusiasm, Enjoyment, and Acceptance.
In the present you unleash your power and must be in one of three states: Enthusiasm, Enjoyment, or Acceptance.
"If you keep your state of being in enthusiasm or enjoyment, you will find more things to be enthusiastic and joyful about. "
In times when things take an unexpected turn, we must move towards acceptance.
In acceptance we continue to move forward on our journey. If we look at the unexpected turn as a mistake, if we judge it in anger, we tend to go nowhere.
14. Remain unattached to the outcome
So many times things will not turn out like we thought or expected they would. This can lead to feeling disappointed and being stuck.
15. There are no mistakes.
Know this... There are no mistakes. Just because something doesn't look like you thought it would look does not mean it is wrong. How do you know how it's supposed to look?
Your ego is not guiding the journey, your heart it. Your heart has the power to guide you to something bigger and better than you might ever have guided yourself.
16. Have faith.
When things don't work out like you thought they would... Have faith. The best thing you can do is say thank-you and know that there's something better in store for you.
In appreciation and acceptance you will see it. In judgement and fear you will not.
With these words from lessons learned as an entrepreneur my best guess is that you'll be soon seeing Shelly Ehler on a stage near you, on more television shows, and signing her book in your favorite bookstore.
Shelly's creation called the "Show No" which is a multi-functional towel and a cover-up which is serving as a vehicle to reveal her talent to the world.

College Hockey:Borowiecki goal in third lifts Clarkson over Brown
Karpowich strong in net for Golden Knights
PROVIDENCE — Knotted 1-1 going into the third period, Clarkson (12-9-2, 6-4-1 ECAC) scored twice (one of which was an empty-netter) to pull away from Brown (7-8-4, 5-6-1 ECAC) Saturday in Providence, R.I. The loss snaps the Bears' two-game win streak after victories over No. 1 Yale and St. Lawrence, and drops them to eighth in the ECAC. The win propels Clarkson, who came into the game tied with Brown with 11 points, into sole possession of sixth place, just two points shy of a tie for second.
"I'm proud of our effort tonight," said Clarkson coach George Roll. "Brown's an awfully competitive team, and we came in and physically matched them step for step. The game could've gone either way, but I'm certainly proud to come in here and get a good win against a hard-working club."
"It's mental lapses, it's mental immaturity," said a frustrated Brown coach Brendan Whittet about his team's frequent time in the penalty box (38 minutes for 11 infractions, to be exact) during the game. "Our team forgot what it has to do in order to be successful."
In a scoreless first period, both sides saw chances to draw first blood. Brown had its best chance about eight minutes in, but was denied by Clarkson netminder Paul Karpowich. Working a three-on-two break, deft passing left Jack Maclellon one-on-one with Karpowich on the left side of the net. Brown's point leader swooped across the front of the net to set up a shot, but Karpowich denied his finish on a great save.
For the most part, Clarkson controlled the second half of the period, but despite two power play chances and 25 shots, could not find a goal. Brown worked nicely to clear pucks and make line changes, and was twice able to successfully kill the penalties behind 11 Mike Clemente saves in the period.
Brown quickly found themselves a man down only 17 seconds into the second period after Harry Zolniercyck was charged with unsportsmanlike conduct for snowing Karpowich after the whistle. Again, Brown was able to kill the penalty.
Two minutes after the kill, Clarkson forward Lauri Tuohimaa responded and received a five-minute major after launching himself into Brown defenseman Jeremy Russell. On the ensuing power play, Brown was able to work the man advantage to find the back of the net. A shot from freshman Dennis Robertson was redirected into the net by fellow freshman Matt Wahl, putting the Bears on the board first.
For the remainder of the penalty, Clarkson worked well to keep the deficit at a goal, and were soon rewarded for its efforts. Just moments after the Knights killed the five-minute penalty, they evened up the score. Jarrett Burton lit the lamp after a skillful backhand finish beat Clemente in the top right corner of the net. For the remainder of the period, neither team was able to break the 1-1 deadlock, as both sides seemed to get caught up in the game's increasing physicality.
The third period started off just like the second, as Zolniercyck again went to the box, this time for hitting from behind only 23 seconds into play. This time however, Clarkson was finally able to capitalize on the power play. A deflected puck trickled into the net past Clemente, as Mark Borowiecki was credited with the goal.
"We tried to stretch them out a little bit," Roll said. "They packed it in and did a real good job of blocking shots and staying in the passing and shooting lanes. We told our guys, 'Keep your head up and keep your head on a swivel and let's go to the net,' and it was certainly not a pretty goal but it found its way to the back of the net and that's what happens when you put pucks on net."
"We play a man down the majority of our games," Whittet said. "We're not smart, so we're constantly in the box and it's our own doing. It's absolute stupidity on our part and the guys on our team need to figure it out."
The Bears continued to search for the tying goal, but was again and again turned away by the Clarkson defense, which did well to block shots and clear the puck. Brown pulled Clemente with 1:32 remaining, but still could not find the back of the net. With 50 seconds remaining, Clarkson put the game out of reach with the empty-netter. Brown failed to maintain control of the puck at center ice, and a two-on-one break left Nick Tremblay with an easy tap-in on the vacated goal to put the final score at 3-1.
Next weekend, Brown will travel to RPI and Union, while Clarkson is set to host Quinnipiac and Princeton.

PARK CITY, Utah — When in doubt, follow John Malkovich.
It seemed like such a good idea at the time. After all, the pensive star made his name in movies like "In the Line of Fire" and "Con Air" playing brilliant masterminds one step ahead of everyone else. And as he hustled down Main Street, bags of celebrity freebies in one hand and holding a phone to his ear with the other, it sure seemed like he knew what he was doing. If not Malkovich, then who else should a lost Sundance visitor trail? Certainly not "Clerks" director Kevin Smith, possibly auditioning for the role of village idiot as he strolled through 30 degree weather in his trademark shorts, looking like a hipster Richard Simmons.
These are the choices one must make on the main drag of Park City, as common folk mix among the likes of "Matrix" slimeball Joe Pantoliano, wide-eyed "Almost Famous" innocent Patrick Fugit, presidential also-ran Al Gore and one-step-up-from-Fabio beefcake Kevin Sorbo. In this collection of huddled and oft-hassled famous faces (see "Paris Hilton Parties, Steve Carell Plays Against Type As Sundance Buzzes Along" ), Malkovich certainly seemed most likely to be headed to the right place (or, even better, to an audition for a jewel-thief movie).
Unfortunately, Malkovich was walking in the wrong direction for the interview sessions of "Art School Confidential," his dark, quirky comedy from the makers of "Ghost World" that built up a considerable buzz on this first Sundance day back from the weekend. As so often happens, frantic last-minute phone calls from overworked publicists confirmed that the location had been moved at the last minute from a "lounge" that was peddling wine to another corporate rental up the street that was instead pimping cold-remedy tablets. With his co-stars forced to pick up the slack, the world may never know whether Malkovich was angrily avoiding the press or simply lost, endlessly wandering the street clutching his swag bags.
"It's dark, like 'Ghost World,' and it's got that geek-chic vision. … It's quirky, and the characters are very complex," Sophia Myles ("Tristan & Isolde") gushed after the interview location was finally found. Starring alongside Malkovich, Max Minghella and Anjelica Huston in the tale of an untalented artist caught up in a world of mosaics and murder, Myles adds some vivid color as Audrey, a model who exposes herself in more ways than one.
"I was terrified when I first read it and I got to the scene with my character — who's a model at John Malkovich's line-drawing class — and there was nudity," Myles blushes. "I had to have a very, very strong gin and tonic before I did it."
Up the street at a lounge promoting German automobiles, Jessica Biel and Paul Giamatti juggled journalists for "The Illusionist," a hot-commodity film about a bitter magician played by Edward Norton. "The beautiful love story drew me to the film, the possibility of playing a woman from 1900 Vienna, a woman who's an aristocrat; someone who's nothing like I am, personally," Biel said, flashing a smile that could thaw the Sundance chill off any journalist. "It was such a treat."
Illustrating the variety of projects at this year's festival, the Beastie Boys are also in Park City, passing the mic to promote "Awesome: I F—in' Shot That!" an irreverent concert documentary that compiles footage shot by their fans (see "Beastie Boys Concert Flick Filmed By 50 Fans With Digital Cameras" ). "The idea was that we gave out cameras to 50 audience members that we contacted over the Internet," Mike D said, surrounded by his bandmates. "They had to say what section they were in, so that we could look at a seating chart and have it all spread out throughout the arena. … We thought for sure at least a few people would keep the cameras, but everybody returned them."
"There was one guy who just kept going up to people and saying 'C'mon, get excited and get on the DVD!' " Adam "MCA" Yauch laughed when asked about one overzealous cameraman. "He was like directing his own section."
Continuing the onslaught of films as diverse as Quentin Tarantino's Netflix queue, Monday saw heavy promotional pitches for everything from the "Ryan Gosling smokes crack" teacher drama "Half Nelson," to Michel Gondry's trippy "The Science of Sleep" (which was quickly snapped up by Warner independent Pictures) to a documentary about Rosie O'Donnell going on a gay cruise. To top it all off, the eternally baby-faced Fugit was happy to discuss his "crappy" film.
"It takes place in the suicide afterlife, where people are physically incapable of smiling," Fugit said, unleashing an ironic grin while discussing "Wristcutters: A Love Story." "It's all bleached out; all the colors are crappy. It's the real world, just crappier. You still have to pay rent, and you still have a job." The flick, which features Tom Waits as a crusty afterworld shepherd, made an impression on audiences with a look as original as the film's cult-ready premise.

Speaking of a desire to end it all, the Sunday/ Monday overnight featured several significantly bizarre events that allowed celebrities of varying social status to blow off steam. At a local club offering karaoke, Jack Osbourne crooned Celine Dion's "Titanic" theme, "My Heart Will Go On," Benji Madden covered Enrique Iglesias' "Hero" and Eve took a turn on the Eurythmics' "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)." Nearby, Adrien Grenier's band Honey Brothers attempted to rock the house, while another concert by none other than Sharon Stone conspicuously vanished from festival schedules.
For unadulterated celebrity gawking, it was hard to beat the poker tournament that featured nearly 50 familiar faces, including Dave Navarro and Carmen Electra, Gina Gershon, Shannon Elizabeth and seemingly every actor who has ever appeared on "That '70s Show" (with the exception of the two who have better things to do). Then again, with first prize being a condominium rumored to be worth a million bucks, maybe Ashton and Topher should have booked themselves a flight.
The highlight of the evening, however, came about when a waitress who slightly resembled Lindsay Lohan was accidentally invited to a gifting lounge by a confused corporate sponsor. In this crazed environment of hard-partying thespians, card-sharking TV stars and alcohol-fueled nude scenes, it seemed only appropriate that fake Lindsay should accept the invite to go and get "Fully Loaded" as well.

New Orleans, Louisiana jazz enthusiast Jon Batiste along with his band Stay Human is set to tour with a show at D.C.'s legendary Howard Theatre March 29.
Batiste developed a love for jazz and the piano as a part of a family of musicians and later through his studies at the renowned Juilliard School [1]. Through such training, Batiste's piano prowess was developed to create projects like 'The Amazing Jon Batiste!' EP and his latest release with Stay Human, 'Social Music'.
Batiste has toured internationally as well as making appearances in various film and television programs such as HBO's 'Treme' and Spike Lee's 'Red Hook Summer.' [2] For his efforts, Batiste has received prestigious honors such as the 'Movado Future Legend' award and the 'Steinway Performing Artist' title. [2]
Dedicated to influencing an appreciation for jazz, Batiste advocates for music education through various grassroots efforts. As an Associate Artistic Director with Harlem, New York's National Jazz Museum, Batiste is exposing jazz to the mass forefront of young, intimidated listeners. [2]
The talented pianist along with his band offers a live music experience unparalleled to other artists of his time. At just 25 years old, Batiste aims to influence the urban culture of today with a forward thinking conscious on the evolution of live jazz art forms, amidst mainstream society's prioritized focus on pop and hip-hop music.

There are times when a user needs to sit on a page for a while either to read or fill out a long form. If their visit is controlled by a session timeout, for example a member site, then the session needs to be refreshed without refreshing the page. My previous post on user session warning used a page refresh to renew the session. This example will refresh the session with a jquery .post so the browser maintains state.
Much of what happens here is very similar to the previous page reload session refresh so you will see some of the same explanatory text. Changes to the code mainly affect the jquery/javascript since the variables and timers need to be reset without refreshing the page.
Javascript is needed to keep track of the time the user has been sitting on the page. The server does not know how long they have been sitting there. It only knows whether or not a request comes in during a session or after the session has expired and acts accordingly at that time. Too late for a warning.
Session Defined: Start to Finish
A session is defined as when a user begins and ends using or visiting a web site. It can be unlimited in length or strictly defined by a timeout period. If the site requires a log in or accesses sensitive data, it should time out after a period of inactivity. They can end a session by logging out or closing the browser.
Inactivity means the user has done nothing, made no requests of the web server, during a specified time. Ajax requests usually do not count.
The session time left is determined by the server, and, if you want to poll the server with an Ajax request, go for it. Javascript is used to keep track of the time left in the session.
The demo uses a simple log in with session timing handled by jquery and javascript. When the session expiration approaches, the user is warned and given an opportunity to restart the session. If the session time limit is reached, the user is prompted to log in again. If they ignore that prompt, the page automatically redirects to the log in form. In the demo this sequence of events takes 40 seconds to complete and is broken down as follows:
- Session timeout: 30 seconds
- Timeout warning: 20 seconds
- Session expired warning: 10 seconds
- Redirect to log in page: 10 seconds
Interrupting the User
The user's attention can be diverted away from other open windows to the eminent session expiration by using a javascript alert in place of the jquery dialog box. Personal preference.
Code Breakdown
The application.cfc controls the session by creating non-persistent cookies for CFID and CFTOKEN so the session expires when the user's browser closes. It also sets the session variable sessionStartTime. The sessionStartTime variable is used to illustrate the fact that the application.cfc function OnSessionStart only fires once. It does not fire every time a session is renewed or restarted.
RequestStartTime is set in the OnRequestStart function to provide a reference for comparison later. See "Just for Fun" section below.
<cfcomponent displayname="Application" output="false" hint="Handle the application.">  <cfset THIS.Name = "sessionrefreshtest" /> <cfset THIS.ApplicationTimeout = CreateTimeSpan(0,1,0,0) />  <cfset THIS.SessionTimeout = CreateTimeSpan(0,0,0,30) /> <cfset THIS.SessionManagement = true /> <cfset THIS.SetClientCookies = false /> <cffunction name="OnSessionStart" access="public" returntype="void" output="false" hint="Fires ONLY ONCE when session first created and not when session renewed/restarted.">  <cfif not IsDefined("Cookie.CFID")> <cflock scope="session" type="readonly" timeout="5"> <cfcookie name="CFID" value="#session.CFID#"> <cfcookie name="CFTOKEN" value="#session.CFTOKEN#"> <cfset session.SessionStartTime = Now() /> </cflock> </cfif> <cfreturn /> </cffunction> <cffunction name="OnRequestStart" access="public" returntype="boolean" output="true" hint="Fires at first part of page processing.">  <cfargument name="TargetPage" type="string" required="true" /> <cfset session.RequestStartTime = Now() /> <cfreturn true /> </cffunction> </cfcomponent>
If they are logged in, they get bumped to the index page. The rest is the logic that handles the log in form.
Note: I would not recommend handling a log in form this way. This is for demonstration only.
<cfif isDefined("url.expired") AND url.expired> <cfset StructDelete(session,"loggedin") /> </cfif> <cfif isDefined("form.username") AND isDefined("form.pw") AND form.username EQ "session" AND form.pw EQ "test"> <cfset session.loggedin = true /> </cfif> <cfif StructKeyExists(session, "loggedin") AND session.loggedin> <cflocation url="index.cfm" addToken="no" /> </cfif>
Other than the log in form and a message for the user, that's all there is to the log in page.
Handling Session Timeout
The index page handles the session timeout code. This could be a separate javascript included in every page. The first block simply determines if they are logged in. If they are not, send them to the login page. If they are, load the index page.
 <cfif NOT StructKeyExists(session, "loggedin") OR NOT session.loggedin> <cflocation url="login.cfm" addToken="no" /> <cfelse>  </cfif>
Now the time variables are set and the a javascript timer is set to check the session every 10 seconds.
Javascript uses milliseconds so for clarity the time intervals multiply the number of seconds by 1,000. You could put 10000 in for 10 seconds but I think 10*1000 helps me determine that it is 10 seconds quite a bit faster. Do what is comfortable for you.
Also, a flag is set to determine if the warning dialog box has been opened and the countdown has begun.
//Your timing variables in number of seconds //total length of session in seconds var sessionLength = 30; //time warning shown (10 = warning box shown 10 seconds before session starts) var warning = 10; //time redirect forced (10 = redirect forced 10 seconds after session ends) var forceRedirect = 10; $(document).ready(function() { //event to check session time left (times 1000 to convert seconds to milliseconds) checkSessionTimeEvent = setInterval("checkSessionTime(requestTime)",10*1000); }); //event to check session time variable declaration var checkSessionTimeEvent = ""; //time session started var requestTime = new Date(); //initial set of number of seconds to count down from for countdown ticker (10,9,8,7...you get the idea) var countdownTime = warning; //create event to start/stop countdownTicker var countdownTickerEvent = ""; //initially set to false. if true - warning dialog open; countdown underway var warningStarted = false; function checkSessionTime(reqTime) { //get time now var timeNow = new Date(); //clear any countdownTickerEvents that may be running clearInterval(countdownTickerEvent); //difference between time now and time session started variable declartion var timeDifference = 0; //session timeout length var timeoutLength = sessionLength*1000; //set time for first warning, ten seconds before session expires var warningTime = timeoutLength - (warning*1000); //force redirect to log in page length (session timeout plus 10 seconds) var forceRedirectLength = timeoutLength + (forceRedirect*1000); timeDifference = timeNow - reqTime; if (timeDifference > warningTime && warningStarted === false) { //reset number of seconds to count down from for countdown ticker countdownTime = warning; //call now for initial dialog box text (time left until session timeout) countdownTicker(); //set as interval event to countdown seconds to session timeout countdownTickerEvent = setInterval("countdownTicker()", 1000); $('#dialogWarning').dialog('open'); warningStarted = true; } else if (timeDifference > timeoutLength) { //close warning dialog box if open if ($('#dialogWarning').dialog('isOpen')) $('#dialogWarning').dialog('close'); $('#dialogExpired').dialog('open'); } if (timeDifference > forceRedirectLength) { //clear (stop) checksession event clearInterval(checkSessionTimeEvent); //force relocation window.location="login.cfm?expired=true"; } }
The countdownTicker function provides a countdown inside the warning dialog box to prompt the user to act now. It uses a timer that fires every second for a 5,4,3,2,1 effect inside the dialog box.
function countdownTicker() { //put countdown time left in dialog box $("span#dialogText-warning").html(countdownTime); //decrement countdownTime countdownTime--; }
And, the dialog boxes either allow the user to restart the session or, if they did nothing when the warning popped up, it logs them out by redirecting to the log in page with the expired variable in the query string. Also, it redirects to the log in if they hit the close button on the dialog box rather than the Login button on the dialogExpired dialog box.
$(function(){ // jQuery UI Dialog $('#dialogWarning').dialog({ autoOpen: false, width: 400, modal: true, resizable: false, buttons: { "Restart Session": function() { //reset session on server $.post("restart_session.cfm"); //reset the variables requestTime = new Date(); warningStarted = false; countdownTime = warning; //clear current checkSessionTimeEvent and start a new one clearInterval(checkSessionTimeEvent); checkSessionTimeEvent = ""; checkSessionTimeEvent = setInterval("checkSessionTime(requestTime)",10*1000); $('#dialogWarning').dialog('close'); } } }); $('#dialogExpired').dialog({ autoOpen: false, width: 400, modal: true, resizable: false, close: function() { window.location="login.cfm?expired=true"; }, buttons: { "Login": function() { window.location="login.cfm?expired=true"; } } }); });
The "Restart Session" button sends a post request to a ColdFusion page that sets a session variable. That act alone refreshes the session.
 <cfset session.give_me_more_time = true />  <cfoutput>session.RequestStartTime: #session.RequestStartTime# session.loggedin: #session.loggedin#</cfoutput>
The dialog box contents are at the bottom of the page but they could be just about anywhere in the body.

 Your session has expired!

 Your session will expire in  seconds!

It is important to remember the furry friends that keep our feet warm at the end of the bed. This is why October is so important for dogs.
Many companies in the Hamilton County area work to do what they can when trying to find new homes for their furry bunch of friends and provide a little incentive for those who already have accepted dogs into their family, which is why for the month of October, the Hamilton County Humane Society is offering a special for their black or brindle colored dogs for only $40 (some restrictions apply).
Hair of the Dog, located at 812 West Main Street in Carmel, advertised that the Spay-Neuter Services of Indiana and participating local veterinary clinics in Central Indiana are offering reduced fee surgeries for the month of October! Click on the following link for more information: http://www.spayneuterservices.org/popcert.pdf.
American Towns added a few pointers when going out to find the perfect shelter pet:
1) Give yourself time at the shelter – AT LEAST a half hour. Some animals are shyer than others and may need some time to warm up to a person. Watch their interaction with other animals and people, their general energy and interest level.
2) Kittens and puppies are oh-so-cute, but consider adopting an older animal. They tend to be housebroken, calmer and used to people.
3) Shelters do the best they can to determine the health of an animal, but in many cases, medical records are not available. Be prepared to take your new friend for a checkup ASAP. If you have other pets at home, a temporary quarantine of the new animal in a separate room is a good idea until you know their situation.
4) Ask about discount rates on spaying, neutering, shots and/or microchip identification. Many shelters have arrangements with local veterinarians to provide these services. Before you cringe, spaying and neutering greatly increases the lifespan of companion animals as well as their (and your) quality of life.
5) Consider your lifestyle: will you be away from home during the day? It might be worth getting an additional friend to keep your pet company, ideally from the same litter. Provide food and water, toys and room to play to keep them happy and well-behaved.
6) When you bring your new friend home, make sure small children know how to properly handle and care for them. You might try gradually introducing them so no one makes a bad "first impression." If you already have animals at home, keep the new pet in a different room for a day or so and allow other pets to "smell" them through a closed door. Supervise their introduction, and be sure to give the older pet lots of attention so they don't feel upstaged. (AmericanTowns.com)
They also suggest that if you are unable to adopt a pet at this time to at least give a little time or money to help the local shelters who struggle each month to pay the bills so they can keep these animals alive in hopes they find a new home.
See below for a list of shelters in the Hamilton County area:
Alliance for Responsible Pet Ownership, P.O. Box 6385, Fishers 317-774-8292
From The Heart Rescue Inc., P.O. Box 659, Westfield 317-340-7947
Hamilton County Humane Society, 18102 Cumberland Road, Noblesville 317-773-4974
Indiana Sheltie Rescue, 23163 St. Rd. 37 N., Noblesville 317-984-5737
Petfinder.com is also a great place to find dogs for adoption in local shelters.
Last, but not least, it is always a good idea to seek adoption shelters first when looking to adopt a dog. You can guarantee they have received their shots, are neutered and certainly desire nothing more than some tender, loving care from their new owner.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) -- Voting in Uniontown has raised questions after there were more registered voters than the town's listed population.
Uniontown has a population of 1,775, according to the 2010 census. But the Perry County board of registrars says there are 2,587 registered voters in the town.
The total votes casted in Uniontown on Tuesday were 1,431, which represented a turnout of 55 percent of the number of registered voters and 80.6 percent of the town's population. According to the census, when compared with the 1,140 people in the town who are 18 and older, the turnout was 125 percent.
Deputy Secretary of State Emily Thompson pointed at a census error and voter registrars with strict guidelines in removing voters, even inactive ones, as possible reasons.

The real estate market in Las Vegas has been a bit of a roller coaster ride so far this year. The months of January and February were flat from the end of the previous year, followed by a three percent increase in the median sales price in March. Then in April, the median price lost half of its gain from the previous month, dropping 1.5 percent. That brings the current median price of a home in the Vegas Valley to $192,000.
"We're not surprised to see home prices starting to level off a bit, "said president of the Greater Las Vegas Association of Realtors Heidi Kasama. "The Las Vegas area has been among the national leaders in home price appreciation for the past two years. Prices have to balance out eventually."
To date, home prices in 2014 are about 15 percent behind last year's pace. The market bottomed out in January 2012. The median sales price at that time was $112,000. Prices increased for 19 consecutive months after that until September 2013. Since then, prices have fluctuated up and down slightly.
In spite of the price fluctuation, homes are still selling rapidly. In fact, the pace is picking up. In April, 67.1 percent of existing homes and 63.9 percent of townhomes and condos sold within 60 days. That's up by about five percent from the previous month.
Of the April home sales, 12.4 percent were short sales and 11.4 percent were bank-owned. Both those figures are a decrease from the previous month as traditional sales continue to climb in Las Vegas.

HOLLYWOOD, CA (June 9, 2005) -- Undefeated female boxing superstar LUCIA RIJKER blasted Laila Ali today for avoiding a million dollar battle between them. Rijker, 17-0 (14 KOs) is training for her July 30 pay-per-view megabout at Mandalay Bay against the legendary CHRISTY MARTIN, 46-3-2 (32 KOs). The bout called "Million Dollar Lady" is the richest event in women's boxing history, with the winner receiving a cool $1 million.
Ali, who refused to fight Rijker, despite the $250,000 guarantee to the loser, chose to fight Erin Toughill (6-1-1) on the undercard of this weekend's Mike Tyson-Kevin McBride event.
"Good luck to her ... she can run but she can't hide," said Rijker. "She should honor her father's name. 'Million Dollar Lady' is the richest event in women's boxing history, a battle of the undefeated and a chance to headline a major pay-per-view event. How do you turn all that down to fight on an undercard?"
Rijker, who is noted for taking on and defeating top competition throughout her professional career, had a feature role in Clint Eastwood's Academy Award winning motion picture "Million Dollar Baby."
Promoted by Top Rank, remaining tickets to "Million Dollar Lady" are priced at $250, $150, $100 and $50. They can be purchased at the Mandalay Bay box office.
Who will win the Sergey Kovalev vs Andre Ward fight?

I enjoy sewing for my children and myself, and designing patterns that anyone can make.

Human Bell: Ephaphatha (Be Opened)
Ephaphatha (Be Opened)
Dave Heumann (guitars) and Nathan Bell (guitars)
Human Bell (Thrill Jockey 191)
Dave Heumann (guitars), Nathan Bell (guitars).
Composed by Dave Heumann & Nathan Bell.
Recorded: Nathan Bell's house, Baltimore, MD, 2007
Rating: 90/100 (learn more)
The music of Human Bell has been categorized as post-rock, experimental rock, and even new age. This of course, puts their music in the same room as Miles' rock-oriented experiments. You know – the ones that the jazz purists rolled their eyes at. "Ephaphatha" is an Aramaic expression meaning "to be opened – as a portal." The idea is to be open to all things, to allow your ears to be receptive to this particular conversation. One guitar repeats a chord progression and the other sings and howls above it. It's a spooky and entrancing environment. If Miles had come up with this, us non-eyerollers would have been all over it.

Bencaiova, G; Burkhardt, T; Beinder, E (2007). Abnormal placental invasion experience at 1 center. Journal of Reproductive Medicine, 52(8):709-714.
Full text not available from this repository.
OBJECTIVE: To identify the incidence, risk factors, and maternal and neonatal outcome of pregnancies with abnormal placentation at a single center. STUDY DESIGN: A retrospective review of the medical records of the deliveries in 1999-2003 at the Department of Obstetrics, University Hospital Zurich, was conducted with respect to abnormal placentation, and the incidence, risk factors and outcomes were observed. RESULTS: Thirty-one women with abnormal placentation were identified. They represented 0.31% of deliveries during the 5-year period. The significant factors associated with abnormal placentation were previous uterine curettage (OR = 19.3, 95% CI 11.6-32.3), previous uterine surgery other than cesarean sections (OR = 49.6, 95% CI 24.3-102.3) and coexistent placenta previa (OR = 16.1, 95% CI 4.7-43.7). No case of maternal death occurred, and 1 neonatal death due to uterine rupture occurred in the study group. CONCLUSION: The most important risk factor in abnormal placentation was a previous uterine intervention.
