- Roadshow: Campaign under way for everyone to use their blinkers
Q Call me a cynic, but I am not surprised that your "I don't read minds, so signal, dammit" bumper sticker is being ignored. It is basic human nature; nobody likes to be scolded. If bumper stickers could change human behavior we would be living in utopia.
Santosh Ghirnikar
A But ...
Q Don't you think that "Dammit" is a bit of a nasty word on your blinker bumper stickers? I would not be too happy if my grandkids were saying it. Why tick off drivers behind you?
Dennis Cole
A But ...
Q A few weeks ago some readers were complaining about the backfire regarding the bumper stickers you sent out urging people to use their blinkers. My bumper is proudly boasting the "Be a thinker, use your blinker" sticker and I have not received any negative actions. I think it is helping to make people be more aware of courtesy, unless I'm totally oblivious.
Ann Clifford
San Bruno
Q Roadshow believers are never oblivious. Never!
Q I also set a good example by putting my words into action by always signaling when turning. I am very proud of the message and will continue to try to rid the world of insensitive jerks.
Ann Clifford
A And ...
Q No, your bumper stickers have not failed. I have the "Be a thinker ..." one on the rear window of my Volvo station wagon and I've had numerous positive comments about it. Those who have commented approved of the message and then followed with the "I wish everyone would signal; it's dangerous, lazy or foolish not to."
So, you and Mrs. Roadshow "dun gud" and on behalf of hundreds of others, I thank you!
Marcia Fariss
A And ...
Q It's been my observation that telling someone something that they don't want to hear but know is right often results in an immediate, unpleasant response. However, their behavior then does change in the way you want it to. The Roadshow "Use Your Blinker" bumper sticker is a very worthwhile endeavor and it can actually make a difference.
Deborah Goldeen
Palo Alto
A Mrs. Roadshow and I thank you for your support. And a final comment on bumper stickers.
Q While on the topic of bumper stickers, I would like to express a pet peeve of mine. To all those people whose kid is an honor student at some school, whose dog is smarter than somebody's else's honor student, your political persuasion, your favorite cause, etc., I have news for you: NOBODY CARES! Please don't vandalize your own car.
Santosh Ghirnikar
A Nobody cares? Really. Other than Roadshow's blinker stickers, share with us what your favorite and least favorite bumper stickers are.
Q Gary, am I to understand that the recent changes in metering from Highway 101 to Highway 85 in South San Jose are due to stolen copper? I thought the new metering was genius! The light being off at 101 to 85 has helped cut my commute to Campbell.
Greg Bergantz,
Morgan Hill
A Yep, wire theft both here and at the Bernal Road loop on-ramp to 85. Those meters have been out since Jan. 7.
Q The metering light at Alvarado Boulevard in Fremont to south Interstate 880 has been off for a couple of months. ... Driving home from San Francisco late one night, down 280, 17 and 85, I noticed that most of the exit signs were totally dark. ... If I didn't know where I was going I would have missed the Almaden Expressway exit from 85 also. Is this copper wire theft?
Kent Lue, Linda Speicher, Michael Kato and more
A Yep, and no word on when repairs will be completed on these lights.

SANTA CLARA -- Josh Johnson believes his athletic skill set makes him a better fit for the 49ers' quarterback unit than in 2012, when he lost a training camp battle with Scott Tolzien for the No. 3 role.
Changing quarterbacks from Alex Smith to Colin Kaepernick should work out in Johnson's favor, he believes.
"Kap is an athletic quarterback, and I'm an athletic quarterback, as well," Johnson said Thursday, a day after re-signing with the 49ers.
Kaepernick has been the 49ers' starter since replacing Smith midway through the 2012 season. Johnson will be competing for a backup role with Blaine Gabbert, McLeod Bethel-Thompson and undrafted rookie Kory Faulkner.
Johnson, who played high school football with Marshawn Lynch at Oakland Tech, started five games for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 2009-11 before joining the 49ers for the 2012 offseason.
"You can notice it by watching the games; it's naturally changed," Johnson said of the 49ers' offensive style. "Once I talked to the coaches, they said they do things now that fit my skill set a little more.
"When I was here last time, the whole 'athletic quarterback' deal wasn't as big as it is now. It's a different opportunity but a better opportunity."
Johnson spent last season with as Andy Dalton's backup on the Cincinnati Bengals. Johnson said he's "past the developmental stage of my career," thanks in part to Bengals quarterbacks coach Ken Zampese "fixing my mechanics."
Johnson, who played under coach Jim Harbaugh at the University of San Diego, looked quite capable of winning a spot on the 49ers' 2012 roster behind Smith and Kaepernick. In his final audition, Johnson completed 9 of 14 passes for 158 yards and two touchdowns in an exhibition finale against the San Diego Chargers; Tolzien was 3 of 8 for 42 yards with an interception.
"It was a bit surprising. I thought I played well at the end," Johnson said. "But I could have done a lot of things better, which I look forward to doing better this time around."
Johnson headed to the United Football League's Sacramento Mountain Lions before they folded in October 2012. He signed with the Cleveland Browns the day after Christmas and finished the 2012 season with them.
Harbaugh reached out to Johnson after the Bengals cut him Monday. Johnson said of his journeyman ways: "Honestly it's the nature of this business. Unless you're a superstar, a lot of guys go through this."
Johnson isn't fazed about making the quarterback unit a five-man competition.
"Anywhere it would have been the same situation," he said. "The opportunity was here to come in and compete, and that's what I was looking for. Obviously I have familiarity with the system here and I saw that as the best opportunity to come compete for a job."

On a chilly Saturday afternoon, Rick Snyder's campaign bus pulls up to Uncle John's Cider Mill in St. Johns. But before the cider-sampling and visiting with voters, we have a chance to travel with him on the bus and talk about the race.
We start by asking: Why do you want to be Governor?
"I love Michigan," he says. "I absolutely love this state. I've been fortunate, and it's an opportunity to give back."
His first order of business if elected?
"I would bring an attitude of crisis to Lansing."
That means making the state's finances available to everyone, in easy to understand terms, he says. Also, replacing the MBT, highlighting our successful industries and building on them are big issues. That includes manufacturing-- Snyder says he has experience as a Gateway plant manager and appreciates the industry.
"We need to encourage diversity," Snyder says. "The auto industry is coming back, but let's see if we can take the manufacturing base and expand it to aerospace or medical equipment and keep it going."
Another thing Snyder says he make a priority if he were elected has to do with the cider mill in St. Johns and other tourism destinations like it; he says he'd reinstate the Pure Michigan campaign.
"Canceling it was just an illustration of our broken government," he says of the successful tourism campaign. Its funding was recently canceled. "You've got a payback of $2 for every $1 you spend in one year. Any good businessman would telll you, you absolutely should be funding that program."
But when it comes to other incentives, specifically MEDC tax incentives or tax credits to the film industry, he's not as supportive.
"Generally, on all incentives, we need to be scaling them back and get more strategic on their use," he says.
Above all, Snyder says creating jobs and keeping our young people in the state are his main goals.
Snyder will face off with Democrat Virg Bernero Sunday in the only televised gubernatorial debate of the election season.

GARDEN STATE (A-3, R): A would-be young actor, Andrew Largeman (Zach Braff), goes through life as a struggling waiter. He lives an emotionless life because he has been medicated for years by his psychiatrist-father (Ian Holm), following a tragic childhood event.
Andrew and his parents are estranged on every level. When Andrew learns that his mother has died, he returns to New Jersey for the funeral. Afterward, he joins friends from high school, spending the day in a fog of foul language, drugs, girls and alcohol.
The next day Andrew goes to the neurologist because of headaches. Along the way he meets Sam (Natalie Portman), a young woman who tries to hide the fact that she has epilepsy.
Andrew disposes of his medicines, tries to reconnect with his father and explores a relationship with Sam. His scummy friend Mark (Peter Sarsgaard) leads Andrew and Sam on an odd journey where Andrew learns that life is worth living.
Garden is not, technically, an independent movie. But this small film examines the significance of life for young adults who are alienated from family and have not connected to either society or institutionalized religion as a source for transcendent meaning or authentic spirituality. They have to find it in each other and the world around them.
Zach Braff, who plays Dr. Dorian in the NBC series Scrubs, is the star, director and writer of this film. Crude language, a sexual encounter, drug use; themes of life, love, truth, empathy, reconciliation and, ultimately, joy make this worthwhile viewing.
RAISE YOUR VOICE (not rated, PG): Terri Fletcher (Hilary Duff) lives with her family in Flagstaff, Arizona. This sweet girl who loves to sing in the school chorus and church choir has aspirations to attend a summer music camp in Los Angeles.
Her mother (Rita Wilson) and Aunt Nina (Rebecca De Mornay) are supportive. But her overprotective dad (David Keith) wants his little girl at home.
Terri's brother, Paul (Jason Ritter), sends a DVD with Terri's singing to the music school. In gratitude, she gives him two concert tickets as a gift for his high school graduation. But Paul is grounded after arguing with his dad.
Terri urges her brother to sneak out to the concert, and he encourages her to speak up for herself so she won't be stuck forever in Flagstaff like their dad. When Terri is accepted to the music camp, her mom and aunt concoct a plan to send the girl without telling her dad.
Raise is directed by Sean McNamera (That's So Raven; Even Stevens), a Catholic who cast Hilary Duff in her first film, Casper Meets Wendy (1998). The singer/actress then starred in the Lizzie McGuire series and film.
Christian music, symbolism and church are prominent in Raise, which shows faith, prayer and discernment as a normal part of a young person's life. The tension between doing something good (going to the music camp and launching a career) and using the wrong way (lying to her dad), however, is never fully resolved. There are many points for parents and adolescents to discuss together. Some problem language and thematic elements; this wholesome, multicultural, somewhat saccharine, lively musical is a humorous coming-of-age film that will appeal almost solely to the 'tween-girl audience.
NAPOLEON DYNAMITE (not rated, PG): As a high school student Napoleon Dynamite (Jon Heder) lives in rural Idaho with his grandma (Sandy Martin) and his repressed brother, Kip (Aaron Ruell). Grandma has a pet llama and Kip spends all his time cruising chat rooms for the right girl. When Grandma goes away on a trip, Uncle Rico (John Gries), a disappointed football player and quasi all-round loser, comes to stay.
High school is social hell for the sweet but dorky Napoleon and friends: Pedro (Efren Ramirez), who speaks mostly Spanish, and Deb (Tina Majorino), a painfully shy and plain girl. When Pedro decides to run for class president, Napoleon resolves to help him.
While Grandma is gone, Kip invites a young woman from Los Angeles to visit him, and Uncle Rico starts selling kitchenware door-to-door, flirting with the ladies.
This one-dimensional tableau goes from one awkward scene to the next, documenting the painful inevitability of growing up. But it is really about kindness, friendship and the inner beauty of the soul that thrives, especially in Napoleon's utter lack of self-absorption. I kept waiting for something to happen, and when it did all I could do was smile. Some problem language and thematic elements; a warm and funny movie that gently surprises you, like when you see an ugly duckling morph into a swan.
REALITY TV caught the popular imagination when Survivor debuted on CBS in 2001. Although it is supposedly unscripted and spontaneous, a colleague described it as "an editorialized version of one person's or one production company's view of a slice of life."
Media educators assert that reality TV is actually created by the director and the editor, without the aid of a writer (jeopardizing the employment situation of many writers). This new development in entertainment seems to be growing by leaps and bounds, and sometimes without taste or a sense of human dignity (for example, ABC's thankfully short-lived Are You Hot?).
The audience sees only a select fraction of what is taped or experienced by the tribes, apprentices, housemates, bachelors and bachelorettes. Thus, the term reality must be taken with a grain of salt.
Some television producers and advertisers have taken reality a step further. With the advent of TiVo and satellite PVR's (personal video recorders), people can record their favorite programs and then speed through or delete commercials during playback.
To circumvent this, audiences can expect to see more and more product placement in programming, such as we already see in motion pictures. (E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial featured Reese's Pieces®; The Truman Show satirized the practice of product placement.) Brand-name products and logos become natural parts of the story and action. If we see it, we are likely to buy.
Three reality TV programs embody product placement in their totality. Airline (A&E, Mondays) is an entertaining half-hour advertisement covering the travails of Southwest Airlines employees dealing with travelers who range from endearing to outrageous, and neither the customer nor the company is always right. I think it's hilarious, but I have to keep telling myself that this is one big commercial.
JAG (CBS, Fridays), which premiered in 1995, epitomizes and reinforces ideological product placement: the U.S. Navy and government.
Extreme Makeover: Home Edition (ABC, Sundays) renovates homes of needy and deserving families. It's very heartwarming, and they openly invite you to visit their Web site (http://abc.go.com/primetime/xtremehome) to check out every item that Sears has donated to the familyand buy one for yourself.
THE DUST FACTORY (A-2, PG): A teen-aged boy, Ryan (Ryan Kelley), hasn't spoken since he saw his father die in an accident. When Ryan falls into a river while fishing, he enters a fantasy-dream world and comes to understand the mysteries of life and death. His grandfather (Armin Mueller-Stahl) and a young girl (Hayden Panettiere) help him on his interior quest. More for adults than children; Jungian analysts would have a field day with the symbolism. Mature themes and some frightening images.
SILVER CITY (A-3, R): John Sayles directed this less-than-subtle fictional satire of an inarticulate candidate for governor of Colorado (Chris Cooper) who is pro-death penalty, traditional family values, sanctity of life and right to bear arms. This film is a cynical guide for political euphemisms (cultural equilibrium = no handouts for the homeless; public information outreach = attack campaign) and corporate and environmental corruption. But there is food for thought here. Some problem language.
PAPARAZZI (O, PG-13): A violent revenge thriller about an actor, Bo Laramie (Cole Hauser), and the paparazzi who plague him and his family. When the paparazzi cause a horrific accident that injures his wife and son (reminiscent of the one that killed Princess Diana), Bo tosses morality to the wind and takes murderous revenge. I could only wonder what Icon Productions producers Mel Gibson and Steve McEveety (The Passion of the Christ) were thinking when they accepted this project. How could they not ask: What would Jesus do? Violence and strong language.
A-1 General patronage
A-2 Adults and adolescents
A-3 Adults
L Limited adult audience
O Morally offensive

The Bogner Alchemist 112 combo amp is a modern take on vintage tube amp design. Boasting sparkling, articulate cleans, touch-sensitive leads and a bright and colorful crunch, the Alchemist 112 guitar amp owes its remarkable tonality to a 6L6 class-A/B power section, 5 - 12AX7 preamp tubes and a premium Celestion speaker. The Bogner Alchemist 112 amp owes its timeless appeal to classic innovation, modern ingenuity and some entrancing sonic alchemy. The Bogner Alchemist 112 has a 2-channel design. Each channel has its own voice and identity. Beginning clean and fast, featuring an open top-end and tight bottom-end, Channel 1 opens gradually to present simmering blues tones that churn like spirits in a cauldron. Advancing toward saturation, Crunch mode turns up the heat adding the perfect touch of nastiness with added pick response and increased tonal complexity. Channel 2, achieving critical mass, invokes the famous white-hot Bogner gaincreamy, modern and screaming with sustainoffering everything from Brit rock right through to modern metal. Plus, with variable Bright settings, each channel can be customized to match the tone of your guitar and rig. Featuring a selectable power section, from 40 to 20 watts, the Alchemist 112 amp's sonority quickly transforms to display a very different kind of magic. When switched to 20 watts, the Bogner Alchemist 112 amp undergoes a complete sonic metamorphosis, changing its harmonic complexity and feel to conjure the essence of the legendary Brown sound. Reverb and Delay, in variable styles and levels, run in parallel, separate from the original signal. The result is a rich, living and breathing, fully realized resonance capable of producing a complete tonal landscape. Bogner includes a 4-button footswitch with the Alchemist 112 combo tube amp.6L6 class-A/B power section and 5 - 12AX7 preamp tubes; selectable power section (40 or 20 watts)One 12" premium Celestion speakerChannel 1 (gold): Gain, Treble, Mid, Bass, Volume, Crunch mode, variable Bright, Deep switch; Channel 2 (mercury): Gain, Treble, Mid, Bass, Volume, variable Bright, Mid Shift; Shared: in parallel, Reverb Type, Reverb Level, Delay Type, Delay Level, Delay Repeats (Feedback), Tap TempoIncluded four-button footswitch controls Channel Select, Boost, Delay and ReverbEye-catching retro-modern fit-and-finish.

Hi Glynda,I am also concerned about people not seeing the time is short,many are not even aware of what is happening behide the scene's of this so called great country.You can see that the love of many has grown cold.Many live for image,pleasure,good times.This is the time for fasting and prayer.I am very concered about others that are caught up in the things of this world.I want to write a book that would inform others of what is happening in this country,to encourge them to really press into God,and to store up the word.Right now hundreds of f.e.m.a. camps are getting staffed and ready.Ron Paul talks about the goverment stageing violence in this country to lead to marshel law.Go to alex jones infowars.The holocaust is coming,people don't want to believe that.This country is going to be coming down,the new world order is right around the corner.Every day I feel a sorrow in my spirit,a deep sadness for what is going to happen,for those who are not saved.It is very inportent to memorize scriptures.Fear will try to destroy your mind and heart when you see the things coming on this earth.The word of God will PROTECT YOU!!!!Jesus is the word. blessings on you!!

Many of the people of the world do not see & refuse to see the mighty hand of the Lord upon this nation & the world. Many will be lost in this time that we are going through. The thing's that they seek after will soon be destroyed & be no more. The Lord our God is growing very weary of telling all of us to turn from our wicked way's. We refuse to understand that the Lord our God is in control of our Weather & earthquakes on the earth. Blessed is he that watch & pray's alway's in this time. Time as we know it is running out. We must obey the Lord our God & get out from this world's way's. The world make's you drunk to understand anything that is comeing soon. So i prey & hope that all of us have our door's open to the Lord to enter our heart's before it's to late. May God of our salvation look & protect us from the thing's that's to come soon. May God bless us & keep us all in his word & Love forever. in Jesus name Amen!

I'm not sure what was meant by 'pursuing gods of wood and stone'?
I'm guessing He meant things of the world, but I'm not sure what the significance of wood and stone would be in that context?

Eric - I always think of big houses when I read that. Could also be big corporations - but yes, I think basically gods of worldly success of one type or another.

Ok can somebody explain to me how these prophecies work? I hear some intercessors/prophets speaking of about the perillous times, danger and disaster and on the other side about he is going to launch his people into a greater glory protection and blessing (I do not speak of greed and vanity). Is this going to happen simutaneously? How does this work?
- December 22, 2011 at 4:01 AM
- Glynda Lomax said...
Demita - You got it right - the two things happen simultaneously from what we have been told. As disasters and judgments are falling, the Lord will begin to shine more brightly on and through His people, so as the times that we live in grow darker, His glory shines brighter. Hope this helps - Glynda

Here is a couple of verses to know:
The voice of the LORD divideth the flames of fire. Psalms 29:7
Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh. For the LORD shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken. Proverbs 3:25-26
But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary: and they shall walk, and not faint. Isaiah 40:31

Sometimes I have dreams that are vivid and in color. Sometimes I have dreams that can be directly related to events going on in the world today. Sometimes I have dreams that I believe are nothing more than what I call "sour pickle dreams". Most times I don't share my dreams with anyone except my wife. However; after seeing your words on "The time of shaking upon you", I felt compelled to share the dream I had early Wed. morning. I was in the passenger seat of a big,shiney red, fire truck. A woman I didn't recognize, was driving very erratically, on grass covered earth. The earth began to swell and sink around us. I gave her instructions as to where to drive because she was about to come unglued. At one point she backed into what appeared to be a sinkhole and was stuck momentarily. I instructed her to regroup and re-gear and we began to slowly climb out. Then way out in front of us the earth began to buckle and rise up and move as like a huge wave of water coming towards us. We just barely got out of the hole when the wave of earth hit us but we rode over it like a ship over a huge wave of water. Finally things began to settle down some and we maneuvered thru it to safety. Kinda seems like maybe a sign of times to come soon. We sure were getting shaken around a lot. In body and mind.....

Glynda thanks for answering Demita's question as that has puzzled me also at times. Why do some prophets post good things are going to happen, and bad times are coming posted by others. This can be disconcerting to some. I think we are living in Acts 2:17, and many now are hearing from the Lord. Thanks for your faithfulness! I send your words to some of my friends who are not into the prophetic, but are Christians, so they will be warned, and maybe help them to be aware of what is coming and may help when it arrives. Praying for you and all who read these posts. BW

blakewilcox - Blake, something else I have noticed among prophetic words is that some receive words more for the church and some for their nation or multiple nations, and some are directed more at individuals and I think that may also explain why the words vary some. ~ Glynda

I definitely have been experiencing a shaking-two nights ago actually, in bed-I couldn't understand it/or explain it either...until I read this prophecy.
God Bless all! :)

Hi Glynda, Wow, I'm always so blown away at the synergy of your messages. Every message is in synct to what I'm experiencing as well, as if God is coaching me/us through each step of the battle! The shaking of the soul that I sometimes feel has been happening more and more frequently in the past few months. I feel it walking sometimes, like a dip in the floor and sometimes just sitting still. Whether it's because I'm shifting between planes while drifting to sleep or when it's a spiritual attack - demons rattling my cage, it is very real and I'm just so glad that God is showing us that this is truth and indeed, a very spiritual state of affairs. Not only is it a warning, but it is encouragement that He holds us close and that we are not alone or overlooked. Blessed be!

Hi Glynda, I am a follower of Jesus Christ, and I just wonder that I do not feel shaking - and is that a problem? I do not flow in the prophetic, I am one of God's kids that He has to basically put up a billboard with blinking lights for me to get His point (and He surely has done that when necessary :-). He has also lovingly disciplined me when I needed it, so I know I am one of His loved sheep. I am also very aware that everything points to His soon coming, and I long for the day that every knee bows & tongue confesses that Jesus is Lord, so my eyes are very much open. But I don't feel the shaking, I've had some strange or bad dreams lately, but nothing terribly unusual. I see others here share the experience that you wrote, but in truth, I don't feel any fear as of yet, just a sense that God will see us through no matter what. Do you think its because I just don't flow in the prophetic?
- December 22, 2011 at 4:14 PM

Rain, I just read your comment and I confirm the dip feeling, we should seek the LORD as to what that is.

WASHINGTON (April 20, 2012) — The Propane Education & Research Council (PERC), meeting last week in Atlanta, approved a commercial mower incentive program designed to encourage the widespread adoption of propane-fueled mowers by putting as many as 600 new mowers into service nationwide.
Eligible groundskeepers can get up to $1,000 for buying a qualifying propane-fueled commercial mower and sharing details with PERC about their use and operation of the mower for one year. Compared with gasoline mowers, propane mowers can reduce carbon monoxide emissions by more than 80 percent and greenhouse gas emissions by nearly 50 percent.
"Landscaping firms, local governments, colleges and universities, and lawn care pros are switching to propane-fueled mowers because they offer lower emissions, cost less to operate, and run on an abundant, domestically produced fuel," PERC President and CEO Roy Willis said. "With this incentive program a mower operator can earn $1,000 by using a great product and reporting on its performance."
While meeting in Atlanta, PERC re-elected all five of its officers for another one-year term:
Chairman: Joe Armentano, Paraco Gas, Rye Brook, N.Y.Vice Chairman–Marketers: Paula Wilson, AmeriGas, Valley Forge, Pa.Vice Chairman–Producers: Joe Gump, ConocoPhillips, Dacula, Ga.Treasurer: Gerry Misel, Georgia Gas Distributors, Sandy Springs, Ga.Secretary: Eric Benson, JS West & Co., Modesto, Calif.
They will serve on the Executive Committee through July 2013. Among their biggest projects for the coming year will be leading the development of the Council's strategic plan.
The Council's top priority remains the research and development of new propane-fueled products and the safety and training programs that support them, Armentano said. "We've taken some big steps in our research and development efforts, and commercial mowers are just one example of that work," he said. "This year we will push harder to bring more propane-fueled appliances, vehicles, and equipment to market."
In other business:• The Council approved funding for the development and commercialization of a 5-kilowatt micro-CHP (combined heat and power) system, the CP5WN-SPB, from Yanmar Corp. The project entails product development and certification, durability testing, demonstration, and technical training. Like Yanmar's 10-kilowatt micro-CHP system, now being demonstrated in five U.S. locations in an ongoing program funded by PERC, the 5-kilowatt system is designed for smaller commercial and larger residential applications.• The Council authorized a program to deliver three two-day Industry Responders' Conferences in partnership with three state propane gas associations. The conferences, held in partnership with state and regional propane gas associations, bring propane professionals and firefighters together to learn from one another about the various issues surrounding the safe response to incidents involving propane and propane autogas.• A new rebate-funded commercialization program proposed by the New England Propane Foundation won Council approval. The Propane Technology Decision Maker Database and Communications Outreach project will create a database of municipal and state government fleet managers and fleet equipment buyers and share with them the latest news in propane research and development, safety, and training. Communications will focus on research results, technical fact sheets, and demonstration and incentive programs connected with forthcoming or newly commercialized products like school buses, trucks and vans, commercial mowers, agricultural equipment, and combined heat and power systems. Under the law that authorized the creation of PERC, the Council must rebate 20 percent of the assessments it collects to the state propane foundations or councils.
The Council approved the following funding requests:
Docket 17449 — Yanmar 5kW Micro Combined Heat and Power Development and Commercialization, $495,000Docket 18004 — 2012 Propane Emergencies Activities, $110,450Docket 18022 — Commercial Mower Incentive Program, $900,000Docket 18063 — Interim Market Outreach and Communications Program for Second Quarter 2012, $648,848Docket 18067 — 2012 Industry Communications, $290,000Docket 18112 — NPGA Benchmarking Council, $50,000
The Council approved the following state rebate requests:
Docket 17571 — 2009 Propane Hedging & Risk Management Training Workshop, $20,913.35Docket 18099 — New Propane Technology Decision Maker Database and Communications Outreach, $160,000
The Council will next meet July 11 and 12 in Napa, Calif.

It seems more and more people these days know to go 'organic' when it comes to their fruit. Many of us understand some basic reasons for why organic is better, but there are also some fundamental differences between organic and non-organic fruit. The USDA's National Organic Program defines organics as, " A production system this is managed to respond to site-specific conditions by integrating cultural, biological and mechanical practices that foster cycling of resources, promote ecological balance, and conserve biodiversity.
The problem with non-organic fruit is the high concentration of pesticides. There are about 12 fruits and vegetables to avoid unless you are buying organic. The Environmental Working Group, a exposure of 90% by avoiding the "dirty dozen." The following are ranked in order of highest toxicity: peaches, apples, celery, sweet bell peppers, nectarines, strawberries, potatoes, cherries, lettuce, imported grapes, pears and spinach.
The good news is that there are several fruits and vegetables that are very clean. The "cleanest dozen" are ranked in order of lowest pesticide load to highest and are as follows: avocado, onions, sweet corn (frozen), pineapple, mango, asparagus, sweet peas (frozen), kiwi, bananas, cabbage and broccoli. You will note that these fruits and vegetables have a thick outer skin, that keeps the pesticide concentration low.
Even though these foods a tad bit more expensive, people who are conscious of the environment don't mind the extra buck they need to pay as long as they feel they are doing something constructive for the environment and for themselves.

In The News, Black Tea, Drinking Black Tea, Study, Research, Heart Health, Cardiovascular Health, Blood Sugar Levels, Triglyceride Levels, Medicine Cabinet, Justine Patton
More research has emerged suggesting that black tea, which accounts for nearly 78 percent of worldwide tea consumption, can help prevent cardiovascular disease, according to a new study appearing in the journal Preventative Medicine.
Researchers from Scotland and the United States conducted the study, which broke 87 participants ages 25 to 60 into two groups. The first group drank three cups of black tea per day for 12 weeks; the second consumed three cups of hot water per day. At the end of the study, those who drank black tea enjoyed an 18.4 percent reduction in fasting blood sugar levels and a 36 percent decrease in triglyceride levels.
High triglycerides have been associated with an increased risk for heart disease and may even be a sign of metabolic syndrome, which is a combination of high blood pressure, high blood sugar, excess fat around the waist, low HDL ("good") cholesterol and high triglycerides. This is a serious condition that can increase your risk for diabetes, stroke and heart disease.

While the study only tested whether black tea was an effective prevention method for heart disease, the researchers believe it is likely that all tea varieties—black, white, oolong and green—can offer the same positive effects in heart disease risk reduction.
Of course, this isn't the first time we've heard about the health benefits of tea, and I'm sure it won't be the last. Tea has been celebrated and cultivated for thousands of years, and it has been grown in the United States since the 19th century. Its antioxidants and disease-fighting capabilities make it more than delicious alternative to coffee—they make it a healthy, invigorating beverage that can add years to your life.
For more information on the health benefits of all types of tea check out the article "Leaves of Fortune in Your Tea Cup."

text: Want to know about the "Texas Ethos"? The best source Ive found, and it should be required reading at least SOMEWHERE, is Lone Star, A History of Texas and the Texans by T.R. Fehrenbach. It is still in print and has even been recently updated and revised, by the original author. The copy I have is a later (not current) printing and runs to 761 pages including the bibliography and index. So far, this is the best Texas history book I've found. It is often considered the authoritative text on the subject.

Shawnee sales taxes are down $21,000 from last January, significantly different from the previously reported $159,123.
City Finance Director Cindy Sementelli explained that this is due to a few businesses incorrectly coding their earnings, which changed the overall number.
The Oklahoma Tax Commission was initially going to add the additional $138,000 to the next check issued, however they are instead sending a check this month, Sementelli said.
"It's much more encouraging," she said.
She added that although sales tax is down, $21,000 isn't much to worry about when considering the entire budget.
"Sales tax may be down, but there's other revenue that's up," Sementelli said.
Use tax, which comes from Internet sales and deliveries, is up $10,000 over this time last year, she said.
The overall budget is currently down $127,665, or 1.32 percent.

DANVILLE -- When Judy Kerns' son David auditioned for the Pacific Boychoir Academy in Oakland several years ago, he liked it so much he told his mom he would walk there from Danville if she didn't drive him.
The choir expanded his horizons, says Kerns, of the now-17-year-old student at The Athenian School. It took him all over the world as well as providing opportunities to sing locally with ensembles including the San Francisco Symphony.
"There's always something exciting for these boys to work on with the music as well as the concerts," she said.
Now, Contra Costa students have the ability to participate in the Pacific Boychoir organization locally with the addition of a satellite choir for boys ages 7 to 12.
The choir, called Bravi, works on planting the seeds for a lifelong love of singing, said Music Director Xiomara Di Maio.
"Most of the young kids come with no experience," she said. "We build them up from zero by training the ear, training the voice and teaching them to read music to give them the tools to be strong musicians."
Bravi, which Di Maio began two years ago in Walnut Creek before moving group practices to Charlotte Wood Middle School in Danville this year, is composed of five members. The group focuses on classical choir music -- much of which is rarely sung in America, having been written and performed in Europe and other parts of the world -- as well as contemporary tunes.
Bravi has performed locally at venues including the Lafayette Library and the Walnut Creek tree lighting event. Each year, the group also travels to Monterey and sings at the Carmel Mission.
"Because it's a performing art, we want to expose them to the audiences," Di Maio said.
For Christian Ricco, performing lets him not only do something he loves, but also builds self-confidence and fosters camaraderie among choir mates with whom he has traveled to places such as China, Russia and Hungary, he said.
Ricco, a 17-year-old junior at De La Salle High School, is helping the next group by serving as the assistant for Bravi, in which his 9-year-old brother is a member.
"It's great for kids to get a musical experience," he said. "It's something I believe everyone should have a basic knowledge of."
Bravi is filling a niche that was untapped because the San Ramon Valley Unified School District focuses more on instrumental music at the elementary school level, said Jennifer Brown, the director of the Danville Girls' Chorus Apprentice Choir.
Brown, whose son Nate, 11, is part of Bravi, said that is unfortunate because singing can play an enjoyable and uplifting role throughout life.
"Vocal music is the instrument you always have with you," she said.
Di Maio admits that another barrier is the community's tendency to focus on sports in lieu of other after-school activities. She hopes Bravi will grow in future years and serve as a steppingstone for the Pacific Boychoir's more advanced groups.
A new session of Bravi will begin in January. Classes are $300 for the eight-week session, which includes the music and spring concert. For more information, contact Xiomara Di Maio at firstname.lastname@example.com or visit www.pacificboychoir.org.

Rikers Island Guard Charged in Death of Inmate in Manhattan Federal Court
A city correction officer was charged Monday with deliberately ignoring the medical needs of a prisoner who died hours after swallowing a toxic cleaning agent in 2012.
Terrence Pendergrass, a 49-year-old Rikers Island Department of Correction officer, was arrested Monday by Federal Bureau of Investigation agents on a charge of deprivation of rights under color of law for ignoring inmate Jason Echevarria's need for medical help.
If Mr. Pendergrass is found guilty, the charge carries a 10-year maximum prison sentence. He was released on $250,000 bond after making his first appearance in a Manhattan federal courtroom on Monday.
"Jason Echevarria should not have died," said Preet Bharara, U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York. "Terrence Pendergrass abused his power as a Rikers Island captain in charge of a vulnerable population of inmates with mental health issues by denying Echevarria access to medical care despite his obvious and urgent medical need for it."
U.S. Magistrate Judge Sarah Netburn on Monday ordered Mr. Pendergrass to surrender his service firearm and two personal weapons by Tuesday at noon. His passport was taken by the FBI and his travel was limited to the New York City area. His next court hearing is April 23.
"My only comment is that this case won't be tried in the press; it will be tried in the courts," said defense lawyer Josh MacDonald.
Mr. Echevarria, 25 years old, was arrested on a burglary charge and was being held in a unit for prisoners with mental health issues who violated jail rules, according to the criminal complaint.
On Aug. 18, 2012, at about 1:40 p.m., a correction officer new to the job gave Mr. Echevarria a powerful disinfectant/detergent known as a "soap ball" to clean his cell after a sewage backup, according to the complaint.
The soap ball contains ammonium chloride and can be life threatening if swallowed. Jail officers were supposed to put it in a bucket with multiple gallons of water before providing it to inmates, the complaint states.
Around 4:30 p.m., Mr. Echevarria banged on his cell door and informed another correction officer that he had swallowed the soap ball and needed medical help, according to the complaint. The officer notified Mr. Pendergrass, who at the time was a captain and the supervisor of the unit that day, the complaint states.
Mr. Pendergrass told the officer not to bother him about "live inmates in cells," according to the complaint. Mr. Pendergrass told the officer only to call on him if he needed help with an extraction of an inmate from a cell or if there was a dead body, according to the complaint.
At 5:35 p.m., a pharmacy technician distributing medication to the inmates saw vomit in Mr. Echevarria's cell, noticed that the inmate's face appeared to be discolored and heard him asking for help.
The technician informed the same correction officer who spoke to Mr. Pendergrass and another correction officer that Mr. Echevarria could die if he didn't receive medical treatment, according to the complaint.
The correction officer who initially spoke to Mr. Pendergrass asked the third correction officer to try to talk to Mr. Pendergrass.
As the third correction officer was writing a report about the incident, surveillance video captured Mr. Pendergrass looking into Mr. Echevarria's cell for several seconds, according to the complaint. Mr. Pendergrass then approached the officer who was writing the report and asked him to follow him—the officer did, according to the complaint, adding that the report was never filed.
Mr. Echevarria was found dead in his cell at 8:35 a.m. the next day.
In December 2012, the medical examiner's office ruled the death a homicide due to "neglect and denial of medical care."
"Jason died an absolutely horrible death which was totally preventable," said Robert Kelner, an attorney who has filed a wrongful-death lawsuit against the city on behalf of Mr. Echevarria's family. "This is a kid who should not be dead."
The Bronx District Attorney's Office examined the case but found that given the circumstances it would be a more suitable for the federal prosecution, which deals with crimes involving the denial of civil rights, according to a spokeswoman.
A spokesman for the City of New York Department of Correction said, "the unnatural death of any inmate in DOC custody is unacceptable. We are deeply saddened by Jason Echevarria's tragic passing in August 2012 and have fully cooperated with the U.S. Attorney's Office, as we did with the Bronx District Attorney's earlier investigation."
Mr. Pendergrass was placed on paid modified duty which restricted him from having contact with inmates after the medical examiner ruled the case a homicide. Last July, Mr. Pendergrass, who had been a probationary captain when the incident occurred, was demoted to correction officer. On Monday, Mr. Pendergrass was suspended without pay
Officials for the union that represents correction's officers didn't return requests for comment.

Then, make a vacuum suction with your mouth as you slowwwwly drag yourself back up. Once you get to the head of his penis, release it from your mouth with a popping noise. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat...
His perineum (the spot between his balls and butt) is packed with nervesand if you press on it, you'll give him waves of pleasure.

I would like to ask if you would take a moment to place a flower at my dad's memorial, Gene H. Barnes (1928-2007), Wichita, Sedgwick County, Kansas? Other memorials include Lezlie S. Boast (1959-2001) and Dana Schaber (1959-1991), dear people who left us far too soon. Many thanks to those who have.
Another memorial of interest is that of a hunter of man-eating big cats in India, Edward James "Jim" Corbett (1875-1955). Hunting alone and on foot, he answered these pleas for help in ventures other hunters described as too difficult or simply suicide. In 30 years Corbett put an end to 33 man-eaters that had claimed 1,500 victims and years of sheer terror. He achieved this while on the big cats' own turf without aid of automobile or modern communication and while on leave from his job. And he never accepted a reward. Only after the urging of his friends Corbett wrote his first book, "Man-eaters of Kumaon" where the hunter and the hunted frequently switched roles making other thrillers seem like children's nursery rhymes. It became a world-wide best seller with Corbett sending his first royalties to soldiers blinded in the war. He later switched his gun for a camera becoming a spokesperson for endangered wildlife. Following Corbett's death a national park (in India) and a tiger species were named in his honor.
At one time or another, we have all looked at a cemetery and felt that the people buried there are not only long gone, they're also long forgotten. And if it happens to be our relatives or friends it can leave an especially empty feeling. But, Findagrave empowers us to put an end to those concerns. Therefore, I now view cemeteries as a place where people can be remembered and their stories saved and shared rather than lost.
Janitor Daniel Cason died in 1911 in Newton, Kansas. The rest is that he was a former slave and Union Civil War soldier. A real survivor.
Within most people, there is a basic desire to learn the events of their family's history. The fortunate ones get to experience those moments of discovery. As Gordon Lightfoot wrote, "to know the wherefore and the why."

RE: Flower
I appreciate the picture you shared on the memorial of Betty and James Jeffress. You wrote me James was a good friend of your father's. Another curiosity as I read your dad's story is that I attended North High School in my junior year, 1964-1965. I grew up in Salina and Wichita. My first two children were born in Wichita. I have very few memories of that year as I married and left school so I had other things on my mind. My relation is with Betty Lou's family. Her grandmother is my great-grandfather's sister. Florence "May" Knox Stafford and Jessie Madison Knox. Florence was the youngest of a large family. When the Knox family left Arkansas they moved to Wynnewood very near Paul's Valley. I am waiting on Florence's death certificate to arrive so I can locate her burial place and link the Wichita burials.

RE: Walkers
Larry, my 4th great grandfather was Henry Hardin Walker who's sister was Mary Elizabeth Walker. When I started my family research back in 1997 my mother gave me some handwritten family sheets she had gotten from her grandmother Nancy Walker who Married John Timothy Clawson. When I first uploaded my tree to ancestry that was before I had a scanner, so I haven't scanned those family sheets. I have them stored in a box somewhere, so I will see if can find them and scan them.

Manatee court clerk warns of email scam
Published: Wednesday, July 23, 2014 at 12:15 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, July 23, 2014 at 12:15 p.m.
MANATEE COUNTY - The Manatee County Clerk of Court is warning residents of an email scam that falsely notifies victims of a court hearing and contains attachments tainted with malware.
Several Manatee County residents called the Clerk's Office and said emails with subject lines such as "Notice to Appear in Court" and "Hearing of Your Court Case" have shown up in their inboxes, according to a news release. The sender's name was different in each of the scam emails and some of the emails referenced hearings in other states.
R.B. "Chips" Shore, the Clerk of the Circuit Court, said Wednesday those emails are not from his office and are not about court cases.
"I advise anyone who receives an email about a court case to exercise extreme caution. Do not open any attachments, click on any links or respond to the email. These actions could result in malware or a virus being installed on your computer. In fact, the safest thing to do is to just delete the email," Shore said. "If you're concerned about a court date, I hope you will pick up the phone and speak to someone in my office."
The Clerk of Court's Office can be contacted at (941) 749-1800. Information about court cases can be found on www.ManateeClerk.com.

Three South Carolina and two Georgia football players were named to the SEC All-Freshman team, it was announced by the league office Thursday.
Georgia running back Todd Gurley and lineman John Theus and South Carolina tight end Jerell Adams, lineman Brandon Shell and defensive back TJ Gurley were named.
A 6-1, 218-pound tailback from Tarboro, N.C., Gurley has rushed for 1,260 yards and 16 touchdowns this season. He became the 12th Georgia player to rush for 1,000 yards in a season and joined Herschel Walker as the only Bulldogs to tally 1,000 yards in their true freshman campaign. Currently, Gurley is second in the SEC in rushing yards per game (96.9), tied for second in scoring (102 pts.) and third in all-purpose yards per game (124.3).
A 6-6, 309-pound native of Jacksonville, Fla., Theus has started all 13 games at right tackle, becoming the first UGA true freshman to start at tackle since Trinton Sturdivant in 2007. He has helped pave the way for 184.2 rushing yards per game for the Bulldogs and the SEC's second-leading rusher in Gurley. Theus also helped quarterback Aaron Murray rank in the top-five in the SEC in both total offense and passing yards per game.
Adams, a 6-5, 224-pound true freshman from Pinewood, S.C. caught four passes for 90 yards, an average of 22.5 yards per reception, with one touchdown in eight games. His touchdown reception came from 29 yards out in the win over Arkansas.
Shell, a 6-6, 331-pound redshirt freshman from Goose Creek, S.C. started nine games during the season, including the final eight at right tackle. He was also the starting left tackle in the season opener at Vanderbilt.
Gurley, a 5-10, 183-pound true freshman from Cairo, Ga., played in eight games including a pair of starts (Missouri and Florida) before suffering a season-ending knee injury at Florida. He logged 13 tackles, including eight solo stops.

Today was a great day to be a diver, as despite the rainy conditions, over 80 people from the 3 main local dive shops came out to support Gullivers Lake, our local dive quarry, for the largest ever post-storm clean up dive. After a dreadful storm ripped through Flamborough last week, Gullivers was closed for 6 days while the park was cleaned up...

Your tax-deductible gift to the Naval Institute Press underwrites worthy books that might not otherwise be published.
Told here for the first time in vivid detail is the story of the defenders of Wake Island following their surrender to the Japanese on December 23, 1941. The highly regarded military historian Gregory Urwin spent decades researching what happened and now offers a revealing look at the U.S. Marines, sailors, soldiers, and civilian contractors in captivity. In addition to exhaustive archival research, he interviewed dozens of POWs and even some of their Japanese captors. He also had access to diaries secretly kept by the prisoners. This information has allowed Urwin to provide a nuanced look at the Japanese guards and how the Americans survived three-and-a-half years in captivity and emerged with a much lower death rate than most other Allied personnel captured in the Pacific.
In part, Urwin says, the answer lies in the Wake Islanders' establishment of life-saving communities that kept their dignity intact. Their mutual-help networks encouraged those who faltered under physical and psychological torture, including what is today called waterboarding. The book notes that the Japanese camp official responsible for that war crime was sentenced to life imprisonment by an American military tribunal. Most Wake Islanders spent the war at two camps just outside Shanghai, one of the few places where Japanese authorities permitted the Red Cross to aid POWs. The author also calls attention to the generosity of civilians in Shanghai, including Swiss diplomats and the American and British residents of the fabled International Settlement, who provided food and clothing to the prisoners. In addition, some guards proved to be less vicious than those stationed at other POW camps and occasionally went out of their way to aid inmates. As the first historical work to fully explore the captivity of Wake Island's defenders, the book offers information not found in other World War II histories.
Gregory J. W. Urwin is professor of history at Temple University in Philadelphia, where he specializes in American and British military affairs. He is the author of eight other books, including Facing Fearful Odds: The Siege of Wake Island, which won the Gen. Wallace M. Greene Jr. Award from the Marine Corps Heritage Foundation. He lives in Doylestown, PA.
New Books in Military History interview with Gregory Urwin - here.
PRAISE for Victory in Defeat
"Urwin's extensive research brings his characters and a semblance of their experiences to life. The author's mastery of his subject shines through in objective descriptions of cultural influences, geographic landscapes, and perspectives derived from interactions with the people involved."
— Air and Space Power Journal
"The adage "Don't judge a book by its cover" perfectly applies to Gregory Urwin's Victory in Defeat. The title may lead some potential readers to dismiss the book as simply another treatment of World War II with a focus on US Marines or prisoners of war (POW). If that is the case, then they are missing a treasure trove that enriches the reader's soul. Urwin's extensive research brings his characters and a semblance of their experiences to life. Specifically, his interviews with several American POWs and their Japanese captors, together with references to historical documents and other sources, lend vivid clarity to the scenarios and atrocities, making readers feel as if they were living in the moment."
— Air Force Research Institute
"An eye-opening read for all, don't miss this fascinating story."
— Sea Classics
"Overall, while a niche book, this volume makes for good reading and tells some inspiring stories of men who would not give up even in the face of tremendous adversity."
— Company of Military Historians Dispatch, August 2012
"…The main focus of the work and its contribution to Pacific War history is as a very complete and detailed record of the lives of the men as prisoners of the Japanese… Overall the book is well written and interesting. It appears to be well researched and there are 90 pages of endnotes."
— Pacific Affairs, March 2012
"Victory in Defeat is detailed and meticulously researched, but its greatest strength lies in its reliance on the firsthand accounts of the actors in the story—both POWs and guards. The challenge for the historian, in addition to verifying and qualifying these statements, is to skillfully weave them into the text while avoiding the semblance of a rough, cut-and-paste style. Urwin is clearly a master of his craft, for he has given us a highly readable, if often chilling, narrative of an important episode in World War II history."
— Pacific Historical Review, February 2012
"…This is a document of considerable historical, cultural and psychological interest."
— The Japan Times, October 30, 2011
"This book evolved from Gregory Urwin's doctoral dissertation, and as such it is meticulously researched, with many of the author's primary sources coming from the extensive oral history collection maintained by the University of North Texas, in Denton, or the many survivor interviews that he conducted himself. The narrative is also well written, and readers who are interested in tales of POW survival during World War II will find Victory in Defeat to be a truly fascinating account."
— The Journal of America's Military Past, Fall 2011
"In this well-researched, beautifully written account of the Wake Island defenders and a large contingent of civilian contractors, the author takes readers on a journey from a unique perspective—as the title implies, victory through defeat. A wonderful book of POW history, this book stands as a rigorous but cautionary study of U.S. military history. Highly recommended."
— Choice, August 2011

2.6-2 Burden of Proof - Affirmative Defenses
Revised to January 1, 2008
The defendant in this case, (in
addition to / instead of) denying the claims made by the plaintiff, has
affirmatively asserted certain special defenses to the plaintiff's claims. I
will review these special defenses with you in a moment. The defendant has the
burden of proof as to the allegations of any special defenses upon which the
defendant relies. The plaintiff does not have the burden to disprove the
allegations of the defendant's special defenses. Rather, each party has the
burden of proving that party's own claims and no burden to disprove the claims
of that party's adversary.

The new Azimut 53 is stylish and has sizzle in every sense of the word. She is sure to turn heads at the dock as well as underway both in the Med and all around the world. All of this and 3 staterooms, too!
The Pros...
This is one of the most clever designs that we have ever seen in a 50-something motoryacht. The back of the helm seat flips forward so that six can squeeze into the settee. The galley is to port, leaving room below for three cabins.
We like the Azimut 53's boarding passerelle off to the side instead of on the centerline. This leaves the cockpit settee and dinette area untouched and fully functional. The swim platform is more than ample for a tender or PWC. The main saloon has lots of natural light from the large windows on all sides. The dining area is large enough for the six guests to eat, rather than the usual curved seat with a small table.
The lower helm seat is reversible, so it does double duty as a dining seat, and flips back for helm seating.
The helm in the saloon is to starboard, is large and functional with good visibility for this style of boat.
The new Azimut 53 scores 10.0 for Romance on our Richter Scale for heart-throbbing design.
Yes, this is in the master stateroom. A cozy nook for cocktails by candle light in the evening or espresso and fresh croissant in the morning.
Three Staterooms...
Below decks, two staterooms have queen berths, and a third one has two singles. This is great for accommodating a diverse combination of guests. The master is midships and full beam.
Who said you can't have large portlights in the forward cabin? New technology permits large ports without the worry of leaks.
Up above it all, the flying bridge is roomy and very sunny, with a rigid steel overhead encompassing a sliding fabric opening in the center to allow sunlight in, or when closed off, provide shade as desired. Open air cooking and dining areas are comfortable and inviting. Full walk-around side decks allow for easy access to all parts of the Azimut 53 exterior.
The main saloon lets in lots of natural light through her mirror tinted windows. Furniture is pickled oak with lacquered cognac inserts and dark leather tops. Seating is covered with a two-toned velvet and silk fabric. Note the two steps up to the raised galley/dining/lower helm areas.
The Cons...
We'd like to see the flybridge console center mounted. Now it's off to one side… the port side, owing to the Azimut 53's European heritage. Some American users will be a bit out of place by both this and the engine controls on the port side as well, but left-handed boaters will love it. The console accommodates only a single nav display, where the lower helm allows for two. Split screen software can solve this problem, if it is one for an owner.
Keep in mid that this motoryacht is only a 53' boat with a 16'4" beam and given that, plus the fact that there are crew quarters abaft the engine room, Azimut has pulled off the near-impossible buy shoe-horning in three staterooms. Obviously the 3rd cabin is tight, but it is fine for kids, nannies, or skinny friends.
There aren't too many boats in this size range to compare to, but for what is available, the Azimut is approximately 10,000 lbs heavier (which may translate into more stability), and has larger engines, but carries nearly 200 gallons less in fuel (618 gallons/2,340 L) and 50 gallons less in water (156 gallons/590 L).
The flybridge helm is off to the port side and the engine controls favor the left-handed pilot.
The specifications...
The Azimut 53 has a LOA of 54.8'/16.7 m, a beam of 15.5'/4.74 m, and a draft of 4.4'/1.35 m. Her fuel capacity is 618 gallons/2,340 L, and she carries 156 gallons/590 L of water. Azimut reports that the 53's twin 715-hp CAT C12 ACERT engines give a top speed of 31kts, and a best cruise of 28kts.
All in all, with striking good looks and functional interior, the Azimut 53 makes an aggressive pitch for topping your short list of yachts. And while this boat looks very expensive, Azimut is known for coming in with prices that are surprisingly competitive.

VOLUME 16, NUMBER 6 MONTH OF THE CAMAS JUNE 23, 1987 J Major celebration planned in recognition of the Hell Gate Treaty Plans are underway for a day-long celebration a few weeks from now in recognition of the Salish and Kootenai Tribes' Hell Gate Treaty. Concluded with the U.S. government in 1855, the treaty will be 132 years old on July 16, the day set aside for the 1987 celebration. Plans call for two caravans — a south-bound one from the Flathead, and a north-bound one trom the Bitter Root Valley - to meet at "the oval" at the University of Montana in Missoula for a program of speakers and a feast. The July 16 gathering is expected to be the first of similar efforts by other tribes leading to the U.S. Constitution's 200th birthday in 1989, in an effort to remind or inform people about the special Indian-federal relationship. The purpose of the CSKT celebration is to focus people's attention on the fact that the treaty is a living document - a valid, very-much-in-use agreement between two sovereign nations which share a unique association. Although it's been violated since 1855, many of its principles are still in effect. "We're still here as a Tribal people. The principles are still there. We're asking that they be honored," explained Greg DuMontier at a gathering June 13 in Pablo (see the story elsewhere in this issue). DuMontier works for the Tribes as an executive assistant. "Tribal members are encouraged to attend the celebration in support of the protection of treaty and Tribal rights," he said. More complete details, such as times and other activities planned for the day, will be announced here in the weeks to come. Non-Indian irrigators meet with D.C. visitors o 00 0) 3 o> O 00 2 CO i Folklore has it that when people's ears buzz, it means someone's talking about them. If that's so, then the Reservation's Bureau of Indian Affairs' employees probably couldn't hear their Rice Krispies two Saturdays ago for all the internal audio racket. The BIA was the target of a two-hour complaint session June 13 in Ronan. Estimates are that between 500 and 600 (one report claimed 900) people turned up at the Ronan High School gym to listen to Senator John Melcher say what most of them wanted to hear: The BIA doesn't belong in the irrigation-project business, and now is the time for a new law that would give the water users, and the non-Indian Joint Board of Control, control of the Flathead Indian Irrigation Project. Appearing with Melcher at the 10:30 am. meeting were JBC chairman Alan Mikkelson and two men from the Bureau of Reclamation in Washington, D.C, who promised to take good notes for dissemination back East. The meeting could be characterized as a question-and-answer session between the senator and Mikkelson, and a forum for each, along with a handful of audience members, to state their belief that the water users should be in charge of the day-to-day management of FIIP.

PLEASANTON -- A Pleasanton man is now facing a murder charge for hitting and killing a bicyclist, partly because of his history of bragging on Twitter about driving dangerously, authorities said Thursday.
Cody Hall, 18, was originally charged with felony vehicular manslaughter in the death of 58-year-old Diana Hersevoort of Dublin. On Wednesday, he was arraigned on a murder charge and ordered held without bail.
Hall had previously boasted on Twitter of driving 140 mph on Interstate 5, retweeted "drive fast live young," and asked people who follow him on Twitter to "come on a death ride with me," according to Pleasanton Patch.
Hall was allegedly traveling at 83 mph -- more than double the speed limit -- on Foothill Road near Golden Eagle Way when he lost control and struck Hersevoort and her husband, who suffered a broken bone, authorities said. Foothill Road runs along residential neighborhoods.
Authorities said they considered Hall's Twitter feed, his driving history and his driving the day of the fatal crash when deciding to upgrade the charge to murder.
More commonly, murder charges have been filed in fatal crashes against suspects who recklessly flee police or an intoxicated driver who has prior DUI convictions, said Brian Welch, supervisor of the homicide unit at the Santa Clara County District Attorney's Office. Prosecutors must show "implied malice," meaning the defendant engaged in an intentional and unlawful act and did so with disregard for human life, to prove a murder charge, he said.
In this case, it appears the Twitter feed will serve as a "pre-offense statement" not unlike an email, text message or handwritten note, to bolster the prosecution's theory of implied malice, said Welch.
"The challenge in these situations is proving that your defendant is the person who posted the statement," he said.
An attorney for Hall could not be immediately reached Thursday.
