I recently saw a political party downtown Benton on our local news shouting "No more taxes"
I missed their objective. I wish they could have elaborated and made good use of their airtime. Advertisers pay good money for it. No one wants new taxes.
When I look at my monthly income and deductions, taxes are the least of my worries.
It is the cost of health insurance. As an employee of the state the going rate for employee and spouse is close to $400 a month. At this time, the state does not mandate, I elect.
The media reflects an indignation and outrage that the goverment is infringing on our rights with a law mandating the purchase?/participation? of health insurance.
The headlines read "Appeal Obamacare" Politicians are promising "If elected...."
I have not read or have no intention of reading the so called 1,200 page law. This 1,200 pages is a reflection of party lines drawn so deep nothing good comes of it.
State Law under Financial Responsibility requires anyone whom wishes to drive an automobile to purchase and show proof of insurance. I believe the current minimum to be 25/50/25. Pretty sure this law is not 1,200 pages long.
If you want to participate in the health care system meet your Financial Responsibility.
Looking for answers.

From my personal experience nursing homes in our area range from $2,000 to $5,000 monthly depending on the level of care. They have created as the doc said inexpensive hotels. The alternative if able is to pay a person to stay at home with an individual who otherwise would be institutionlized. This can cut the cost by more than half. But some of these agencies are only in for the medicare dollars and I have witnessed first hand, employees driving company cars, finding places to park and hide and play on their phones while they should be on the job.
But enough being negative and things I cannot change. My uncle was retired from the state, and at the age of 67 had a 4-wheeler accident that left him as a quadrapligic? He was in and out of the VA and due to his level of care and lack of facilities he ended up a nursing home in Malvern. He passed in June 2006 and I donated his personal effects (the residents there appreciate any donations) As I walked down the hall to leave, guess what they asked for "blankets" It was June and hot and they wanted blankets. I would love to have a blanket drive. Used blankets would be fine, the type they could fold and use in their wheel chair.
Did you catch 30rock on nbc last night with it's story about patients who are admitted to the hospital but never leave and it is all on the taxpayers. One doc said it would be cheaper to put these people in an expensive hotel. No one can be turned down for treatment even those with no insurance and if they are ready to go to a nursing home but can't pay for it then the hospital keeps them sometimes for years. Sara

Sweet Iced Tea
Total Time
Prep 15 mins
Cook 0 mins
When you order 'tea' in TX you will be asked 'sweet' or 'unsweet'. It will then arrive in a big glass with lots of ice! Here is the way we make 'Swayte Tay" or Sweet Tea! Oh soo goooodd! Dont like it sweet- just leave out the sugar- or splenda.
Ingredients Nutrition
- Put water and tea bags in a small saucepan and bring to a boil.
- Remove from heat and cover. Let steep for 10 minutes.
- Strain or carefully press water from tea bags.
- Put hot tea solution into a gallon pitcher and add sweetener, stirring to dissolve.
- Add water to pitcher to fill.
- Cool in refrigerator and serve with ice.

I already have a great method for making tea with regular-size tea bags, but for some reason, I always have the family-size bags in the pantry. This turned out far too weak. It hardly tasted like tea at all. I will try again using this for only 1/2 gallon and see if that works better.
This is really good, but a bit weak for me. Seems like the tea bags are smaller than they used to be, puzzling. At any rate, I added 2 more bags to another cup of boiling water and it was better. Will definitely use this method, just use more tea bags.
Good ice tea, but it might be a little weak for some. I will continue to make it using 1/2 c. splenda and 1/2 c. sugar for myself. Hubby's doctor said tea was a no-no for hubby as it is kidney stone causing in some people. I've definitely cut back on tea since I've learned about the kidney stones, but I love iced tea and your recipe. Thanks for sharing!

Are there any legal self defence products that I can buy?
The only fully legal self defence product at the moment is a rape alarm. These are not expensive and can be bought from most local police stations or supermarkets.
There are other self defence products which claim to be legal (e.g. non toxic sprays), however, until a test case is brought before the court, we cannot confirm their legality or endorse them. If you purchase one you must be aware that if you are stopped by the police and have it in your possession there is always a possibility that you will be arrested and detained until the product, it's contents and legality can be verified.
However, accepting there is a lot of concern about street crime, we can try to clarify matters a little by putting forward the following points.
The above advice is given in good faith, you must make your own decision and this website cannot be held responsible for the consequences of the possession, use or misuse of any self defence product. See Q85 for information on the use of reasonable force.

Repsol Honda riders Casey Stoner and Dani Pedrosa will start from the front row for Sunday's U.S. Grand Prix after a drama-filled qualifying session on the challenging Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca circuit in the hills east of Monterey, California not far from the Pacific Ocean.
Stoner wasn't comfortable during the session, trying a number of fixes that he hoped would yield the right set-up. He had a number of near crashes, but persevered to the end. Despite problems with traffic with his first soft tyre, he rebounded with his second one and nearly stole the pole position from Jorge Lorenzo (Yamaha) with his final lap of the undulating 3.610k road course, before coming up short by a scant.072s. Pedrosa was only .111s from Stoner in third.
The front row starting spot was Stoner's ninth in ten races this season; his only second row start came in Estoril where he was fourth. Pedrosa was on the front row for the second week in a row. Last weekend in Germany the Spaniard won his second race of the season after starting second on the grid at the Sachsenring.
With its many left hand corners, Pedrosa was hopeful the track wouldn't be too taxing on his right collarbone. But Laguna Seca is the most physically demanding track on the calendar and there's nowhere to rest. Plus, the race is 32 laps, the most of any race all season.
The qualifying session was filled with drama, including a number of crashes, and some of the usual shuffling at the end of the hour. Fortunately, none of the seven Honda riders fell and all got quicker throughout the one hour session, held on a warm, sunny afternoon.
Lorenzo moved to the top in the very early minutes and only vacated the position temporarily to his team-mate Ben Spies late in the hour. Pedrosa was an early second and Stoner an early third, with San Carlo Honda Gresini rider Marco Simoncelli fourth at the outset.
For much of the hour there was drama, but not much changed at the top. Four riders fell, but none were seriously hurt.
As always, it was late in the session when the riders began fitting the softer of the two Bridgestone rear tyres that the times began to plummet.
Lorenzo re-took the top spot from teammate Ben Spies with just over 11 minutes to run. Spies was second when he crashed on the brakes in the turn three, one of only four right hand corners to go with seven lefts. It wouldn't be long before the Honda riders took advantage.
Pedrosa moved up to second with just over a minute to go and with 15 seconds remaining Stoner moved up to fourth. But he wasn't done. On his next and final lap Stoner lapped in 1, 21.274s to nearly take his seventh pole of the season and what would have been his third in a row. Instead he's second on the grid in front of teammate Pedrosa, who had .193s on the sidelined Spies.
Simoncelli's best lap came one from the end and put him in front of Repsol Honda rider Andrea Dovizioso. Dovi spent most of the session around fifth or sixth position, which is where he's qualified most of the season. Other than qualifying seventh in the season-opener in Qatar, Dovi hasn't been off the second row. By qualifying sixth, Dovizioso guaranteed four of the top six starting positions went to Honda riders.
Simoncelli made a big move in the morning and closed the gap on the top three. The difference was more confidence in the front end, which allowed him to take better lines through the corners.
Hiroshi Aoyama (San Carlo Honda Gresini) qualified 14th in his first visit to Laguna Seca. The Japanese star missed last year's race after breaking his back in the earlier British Grand Prix at Silverstone.
LCR Honda MotoGP rider Toni Elias continued to struggle and qualified 17th. The Spaniard had crashed in the morning on the front end. He was denied valuable track time in the afternoon when he and the team made the decision to completely re-build the front of the RC212V. The hard work paid off and he was able to set his fastest time on his last lap.
Ben Bostrom qualified 1.135s off pole in his first ever MotoGP qualifying session as the team-mate of Elias on the LCR Honda MotoGP team. The weekend was a learning experience for the Superbike rider, who won last year's Superbike race here. This was his first experience riding a MotoGP machine and first time on carbon brakes and Bridgestone tyres. Bostrom is accustomed to racing a Suzuki Superbike for NBA legend Michael Jordan in the American championship and he found the adjustment, and going back and forth between the two very different motorcycles, to be challenging.
The U.S.GP is the only race on the world championship calendar at which the MotoGP bikes run exclusively.
Casey Stoner, Repsol Honda: 2nd – 1m, 21.274s
"For the whole session we were trying to find the right set-up. All weekend we've been struggling a little and we've not found anything I'm comfortable with. I've closed the front many times and we're still looking to find some balance on the bike to get it working on this track, where we expected it to work well. On my first soft tyre I encountered some traffic and was held up, also there was a crash and a yellow flag so I lost my chance on that tyre. Then on the next soft tyre we had one lap to find some pace and we managed front row, which is important for tomorrow. I don't feel we're running with the pace of Dani (Pedrosa) and Jorge (Lorenzo); they seem to be constantly one to two tenths quicker but we have warm up tomorrow morning to find something in time for the race so we'll see what we can do."
Dani Pedrosa, Repsol Honda: 3rd – 1m, 21.385s
"We couldn't improve as much as I'd like to in the final part of the practice, we tried some different settings and unfortunately we didn't find a good one, but to start from the front row is always important and here we are again. I felt more comfortable with the hard tyres, which it's positive because they will be the ones used for the race, but we still need to make another step forward tomorrow and hopefully find a little more grip in the rear. Lorenzo seems very stable and fast, so I hope to find something else with my mechanics tonight and to be able to fight for a great result tomorrow. The race will be very fast, there are many laps here, so it will be important to be focused on every lap and stay strong until the end. I know the race distance will be hard for me physically; you have to work a lot in this track, there are a lot of bumps and you need to be very focused not to make any mistakes. But I will try my best and I hope to stay strong and consistent until the end."
Marco Simoncelli, San Carlo Honda Gresini: 5th – 1m, 12.696s
"Overall it has been a positive day. We took our biggest step this morning and then built on that this afternoon, although we still have work to do to close the gap to the top three. Lorenzo is maybe in the best shape at the moment ahead of (Casey) Stoner and Pedrosa, but if we can find a couple of tenths in my race pace we can challenge for the podium. I had more confidence in the front today and held my line better through the corners, as well as improving acceleration out of the final turn. We could still find more time there though."
Andrea Dovizioso, Repsol Honda: 6th – 1m, 21.735s
"My target was to start from the first two rows, so finishing sixth is not too bad, but I hoped to start at least from the fourth position because it's external and gives more advantages from the start. Anyway, we are quite close and we need to work more to gain another two-tenths in race pace. This afternoon we improved a lot thanks to some changes we made in the set-up, moving the weight more to the back. This setting helps us to brake stronger and this suits more my riding style. We will continue working in the warm-up tomorrow because the pace of (Jorge) Lorenzo and Dani (Pedrosa) is really high. I hope to make a good start and maintain contact with the front group. I will do my best to have a good race and fight for the podium."
Hiroshi Aoyama, San Carlo Honda Gresini: 14th – 1m, 22.937s
"I have improved my lap times from session to session and also found more confidence with the bike and track. I am quite satisfied with my lap time considering that this is only my second ever day here at Laguna. Tomorrow we will try to take another step and make up positions in the race. Tyre choice will be important, the race will be long but if we can stay consistent we can make up positions."
Toni Elias, LCR Honda MotoGP: 17th – 1m, 24.156s
"We are back to our 'standard' situation and obviously we were expecting something better. Anyway, I want to say a massive thank you to the guys because they worked hard even today, because we had to change the bike geometry during the session. We are struggling with the same front issue that was the cause of my crash this morning. If you crash here you lose confidence because it's a very tricky surface. I love lapping here but in this condition it's not fun for me. We will try to fix the bike in tomorrows warm up trying to improve front and rear grip for the race."
Ben Bostrom, LCR Honda MotoGP: 18th – 1m, 25.291
"The two bikes couldn't be more opposite: tyres, brakes, chassis...it's unbelievable. There's a lot to learn and I was trying to improve every time I get on the bike step by step because I do not want crash the bike. It's nice to have Lucio (Cecchinello) and the guys also watching so they can see the difference. The adjustments we have made this afternoon were better and our lap time improved a little bit. Probably I could have gone faster, but I made race distance in the last session and I am racing two different bikes this week end so I am pretty satisfied so far."

The rumors had started a week before the king died. "Well, you know what they say about that nephew of his," followed by a knowing nod or wink left many to speculate about just what They did say. Most came to the conclusion that what they did say was negative. The kingdom had been at war for nearly two centuries and the future looked bleak.
Like most other Blank Street families, Johan's family started giving in to the pressures of those around them, buying enough food to last for months and struggling into the Echoing Caves on the day the king breathed his last, even though most believed were inhabited by ghosts and evil spirits . They were of the first to go below and received rooms on the third level of the underground building, above the level given to the upper-classes. Closer to the water than most and with some ventilation they lived almost as comfortably as those below them. On the second level living was cheaper, but also closer to danger. The first level was a cramped, dirty space where entrances were blocked as well as they could be. Most here made their living by trading with those on the surface. And with the traders came the frightening news from the outside world. Days turned into weeks, weeks into months and soon they had too little food for all the mouths to feed below ground and fairy tales about ghosts were soon forgotten.
"The last of the grain this year, master," one trader told Johan's father. "I can't get it any cheaper than this. And can't go outside yourself � them brigands have taken to robbing and murdering in the light of day! Why, it's a miracle I got this bag without being run through." He held out a cupped hand and Johan watched from the shadows how his father paid thrice as much for grain as he would have before. If it kept on like this they would not be able to buy food much longer. Johan took out his own coins and sighed. He decided not to eat that night, claiming a headache and retiring early.
When he woke the lanterns were nearly empty. He sat up, looking around him for signs of breakfast. But the rest of the family was still abed. "Sleepy heads! Time to �" He walked closer to the sleeping forms of his family. They were in a fitful state of sleep. Sweat beaded on their contorted faces. Yet not one made a sound. He ran to the fourth level to fetch a doctor with his father's last money.
The doctor came soon and looked them over. "It's blackroot poison, alright, don't know how they got it down here." He gazed steadily at Johan. "Yet you do not look ill?" He let the question hang in the air.
"The... the only thing we did differently is that I didn't eat supper." He looked towards the sack of grain. The doctor opened it and smelled a few kernels and turned to Johan "Where did you get this grain?"
"One of the traders �"
"Then you must go yourself." His eyes were dark.
"Where? Outside?"
The doctor nodded. "You can't trust the traders anymore, son. Go yourself and bring medicine and news of the outside world."
Johan looked from the doctor to his family and back.
"They will last a day at the most.

Saint Paul River, river rising in southeastern Guinea, western Africa. Its source is in the mountains east of Macenta, and its upper reach (the Diani, or Nianda, River) forms part of the border between Guinea and Liberia. It was first sighted by Portuguese navigators in the 15th century on St. Paul's feast day. Entering northern Liberia about 30 miles (50 km) due north of Gbarnga, it discharges into the Atlantic (5 miles [8 km] north of Monrovia) after a southwesterly course of about 280 miles (450 km). Navigable for 18 miles upstream to the falls at White Plains, the river and its major tributaries (the Via, Wuni, and Tuma) drain a basin of 8,460 square miles (21,900 square km) in Liberia and Guinea. Two arms of the St. Paul enclose Bushrod Island, site of the port of Monrovia. The Mount Coffee Hydroelectric Plant (1966) is upstream.

The killing occurred in broad daylight, family members said.
"Joe's gone. Nobody can do for Joe. It's all about those here to try to move on, do something with their live," McNealy's mother, Darlene McNealy, said.
During the vigil, McNealy said she also prayed for those responsible for her son's death.
Marcus Crook and Steve Bledsoe Jr. have been charged in connection with McNealy's death.

To Spoil or Not to Spoil? Delving Into the Ryan Seacrest/Twitter Dilemma
TV spoilers bring out strong emotions in people. The Internet is currently buzzing over "American Idol" host Ryan Seacrest's results-spoiling tweet following the east coast airing of "American Idol" on Wednesday night. The host posted, "Packed radio show tomorrow…got tonight's voted-off idol lacey brown, @orianthi, @thedavidcook, & dakota fanning with deets on eclipse" to his 3-million-plus followers – some of whom very likely had been anticipating watching the show unspoiled in their own time zones. One follower, @SportsAllDay83 replied, "Thanks for ruining Idol for us on the west coast. You live out here, you should know what time it starts."
Common Internet etiquette says that any news or plot twists that break before a show has finished airing in the Pacific time zone is a spoiler. However, Facebook and Twitter have been closing that gap -– it isn't unusual to see a string of "So-and-so bombed during her performance tonight on Idol" with a reply of "Stop posting spoilers! The show hasn't aired yet on the west coast!" on Facebook news feeds on Tuesday nights. "Idol" spoilers, in particular, are particularly prone to leak.
One particularly interesting tidbit from the fallout folliwng Ryan's tweet: Wednesday's results show did leaps and bounds better in the ratings than its competition. It averaged 20 million total viewers – but was down 22% year-over-year in the 18-to-49 demographic. Nasty coincidence? Or did the Twitter reveal cause some of Ryan's followers, and their friends, not to watch?
For me, I have a love-hate relationship with spoilers.
On the one hand, I actively seek out advance information on "American Idol." From information about who made the coveted Top 24 even before Hollywood Week aired, to what songs the contestants will sing on the various theme nights, if you have information, I want it.
Not everyone feels the same way, of course. Brian Fitzgerald, Speakeasy's Idol recapper – and my boss – doesn't have the same need-to-know-now attitude I have. In fact, he often questions how I enjoy the show when I know so much ahead of time. Honestly, I find it easy because I don't consider what songs the wannabes are going to sing to be actual spoilers. A song title tells me nothing about how the song will be performed. I can assume that Kris Allen singing Kanye West's "Heartless" will be a train-wreck, but in actuality, it turned out to be an innovative game-changer that put him on the path to winning "Idol."
On the other hand, don't you dare tell me what is going to happen on "Lost" or "Survivor." Even something as simple as a casting announcement is hazardous when it comes to "Lost."
Case in point: Before this season started, Speakeasy had a headline and a photo touting a former character's return to "Lost." As it is sort of impossible for that particular character to just walk back into people's lives, that was information I considered spoiler-ish. Now I go into every episode thinking "is this the week so-and-so returns?" (And for goodness sake, do not click on the above link if you're going spoiler-free!) I know it is coming. I hate that I know! THAT ruins my enjoyment.
Readers, where do you stand on spoilers? Do you read them? Avoid them? Stay off the Internet until you've cleared out your DVR?

My teaching identity: Inspiration takes many forms
Students in Dr. Renee Mudrey-Camino's Introduction to Education and Education Psychology courses had a hands-on learning and growing activity for Summer I.
Both classes were asked to develop two projects and participate in an Art Walk for their culmination project. First, they were to create a Teacher Identity Box reflecting their developing identity as an educator. Mudrey-Camino asked the students to reflect upon what inspired them to teach and what will sustain them in teaching. They were also asked to reflect upon that which is most important to them in becoming excellent teachers (role of family, motivation, etc.). Students took to the task seriously, creating boxes that were colorful, insightful and truly reflected their learning experiences and future teaching ideals.
Secondly, students were to represent their developing philosophy of teaching through clay sculpture. In the sculptures, they had to include items that they have learned so far in COE classes. From free-form clay sculptures to intricately designed cities, the students again rose to the task.
"My students' dedication and promise to bettering the future of our children has inspired me. It is amazing that I have been in this field for nearly 18 years but every so often I feel young, vibrant and like I just started teaching," says Mudrey-Camino.

Exactly my point all transfers will have little to do with Rodgers.. it'll have to be approved by this committee.. what if during their deciding amongst themselves a hot prospect comes along.. and we miss out on him cos of their indecision?
It's press hype again. This happens at every club. The manager knows who he wants and the people with the purse strings make the decision and the deal.
Be sensible Armchair. Look at Tottenham. Who makes the deals there? Levy not AVB or Arry before him. How do yo think pr expect Rodgers to value a player, decide what his wage structure will be when he has little idea of how much money there is.
It makes perfect sense that everyone at the club understands what's going on before you go and blow £10m. I'd certainly want to talk about it.

Wildfires blazing near you
Double Rainbow guy captures wildfire
'I know this is a high fire danger, so I've been working on a plan. I got my water tank online, so now I'm ready. I want to protect my home and document it too, it's right on my front yard.' he said, adding that he shot this video with the same camera that he shot his viral rainbow video. 'I intend to stay here and protect my fruit trees and my house,' added the 50-year-old farmer and artist. 'I have an evacuation plan -- I'll throw my dogs in the car and take off. I'm not gonna risk my life for things, but I think I can handle it and I know my boundaries and know how I'll be safe.' (Please note: There is some profane language at around the :30 mark in this video.)
Vasquez also shot photos of the wildfire from the mountain where he lives and witnesses awe-inspiring sights.
- hhanks, CNN iReport producer
This fire started yesterday Fathers Day June 16, 2013 around noon. I noticed it immediately and started filming. This footage was shot today Monday June 17, 2013 3 PM. I was on the phone with a CNN reporter when the flames started shooting up and this video starts.
I was ordered to evacuate last night but refused the order because I have been planning for this for decades. My 2,500 gallon water tank went online two days before this fire. My well puts out a good water hose stream and my water tank puts out 2 streams and my hot tub another. I have 4 potential water hose lines, if only I had somebody here to help me man them. All the people who live here ran away like chickens. Ha. I fear nothing, I see it all as exciting, interesting and amazing!

Dear Abby: Neighbor reaching out for relief should have his hands slapped
Dear Abby: My girlfriend and I live next to a married couple our age we have befriended. Unfortunately, the husband has been making unwanted advances toward my girlfriend. Being friendly with them both, we have kept it to ourselves so as not to hurt the wife. She's ill and has been in and out of the hospital.
The husband is approaching my girlfriend saying he needs "stress relief" because his wife is ill. We now feel something needs to be said to the wife, but we still have to live next door to them.

Sale Makes Weak Impression on Sotheby's Stock Price
What a difference a few days doesn't make – at least when it comes to reviving Sotheby's stock.
Expectations ran high at the beginning of the week in anticipation of its auction of Impressionist and modern art. But the sale's solid $235 million result had an anemic effect at best on the company's share price, which closed today at $24.91, down 9.3% from yesterday and down 59% from its high of $61.40 last October.
Way back on Tuesday, during Sotheby's annual shareholder meeting, about 40 people gathered in the company's main Manhattan salesroom to hear board chairman Michael Sovern and chief executive Bill Ruprecht talk about Sotheby's record $6.7 billion in consolidated sales last year and their high hopes for the week.
But shareholders didn't want to hear about Picassos, Monets or Cézannes. As soon as the meeting was opened to questions, a shareholder asked, "Can you give reasons why the stock is declining?"
Mr. Sovern, standing at the podium, took the question but turned to Mr. Ruprecht, who was seated at the nearby dais.
"Michael is looking at me, so I'll answer," Mr. Ruprecht said. "We don't have the ability to control the stock price. We're aware of the stock and we're doing whatever we can to improve the value of the company to shareholders. But there are just more sellers than buyers."
By week's end, the auction house had broken four artist records, including an Edvard Munch landscape that sold for $30.8 million. But investors couldn't seem to get over the fact that 11 works, including a Rene Magritte painting of a tombstone, hadn't found buyers.
During an earnings call with analysts this morning, Mr. Ruprecht was again answering questions about Sotheby's share price. The company had just reported a net loss of $12.4 million for the first quarter, compared to a net gain of $24.3 million a year earlier. Revenue also fell 12% to $129.3 million, primarily due to lower auction-commission margins. Mr. Ruprecht reminded analysts that the first quarter is traditionally a soft quarter but added that he is determined to improve Sotheby's outlook.
For starters, he said, as of June 1 the auction house will be taking a larger commission from its buyers: 25% on the first $50,000 of hammer; 20% on the next $950,000; and 12% of the rest. Sotheby's will also lay out less of its own money to win consignments.
"We've had a pretty good track record of managing our expenses and our risk, but in a business with our kind of volatility, we're trying to be prudent," he said. The stock fell $2.56 to $24.91 today in composite trading on the New York Stock Exchange. –Kelly Crow


text: Students can choose from seven first order differential equations and set the interval, initial value and step size. The applet then shows the graph of the exact solution along with a numerical solution using one of the four methods: Euler, implicit Euler, Heun or Runge-Kutta. Sudents do not need to compute anything. The explanation fails to say \(x_0\) is the same as \(a\), which is the left endpoint. Also the four methods are listed, but only Euler's method is explained. While there is a reference for Runge-Kutta, there are none for implicit Euler or Heun.

Not gonna say sorry for not being around for the past couple of days. Already have. Feels much longer than two days really. Not trying to dwell on it. It's Friday. Should be good. My blackberry has been blowing up about all the upcoming shows. Think it's a sign to get out of this 'all work-no play' funk July has blessed me with. On the flip side, chilling with my hometown click has been refreshing. Always makes me feel like a younger me. The balance is coming. Feel it.
Just tired. That's why I haven't been writing. Falling asleep at 8:30 like the old days.
I absolutely love this cover. Originally done by Lynyrd Skynyrd. Chose it because Shinedown's Amaryllis has been playing on repeat in my car — much like when I started the day job in 2008. Except most of the tracks from "Sound of Madness" are now written with those old memories. I can't use them to get through this changing age. Ever since I can remember Shinedown's sounds have blessed me with good luck. Not like 2 Chaniz who tends to bring bad karma my way fyi. Strange. Doesn't stop me from randomly saying– 2 CHANIZ! – out of context. Click it. Enjoy it.
Two announcements before I go:
1) Jasmine Ash, one of our previously covered "Artists 4 Sale", returns to "The Hotel Cafe" next week to kick off August with a shooting star-like bang! Here's a preview of what you'll get with the small worthy fee. Especially if you're a guy looking for a cheap yet brilliant breath taking date for your lady. Promise you'll leave with a smile. Check out our past write up too.
2) My friend Mary recently blew my mind with the country-rock sounds of Thomas Wynn and the Believers. Thomas reminds me of the light side version of John Paul White (The Civil Wars) that rocks harder than the 'Nocturnals'. 'The Believers' have been performing live for the past couple of years making a buzz along the way. Check out their vibes here and join me at the Bootleg Bar on Thursday, August 9th! Excited to get funky at one of my favorite, cheap venues. Plus, KCRW is hosting the event so you know something good is going to come of it.
That does it for me. Have a great weekend!!!

Historic Hayes House - Muskogee

The Hayes House bed and breakfast offers two luxurious suites, appropriately named the Governor's Suite and the First Lady's Suite.

Though the Victorian Lady in Jenks wasn't built until 1996, it was constructed from an original floor plan from 1873 and remains true to the era in both décor and furnishings. One step into the front entry of this Jenks inn will leave you enthralled with its beautiful stained glass doors, delicate sconces and sweeping staircase. Choose from three tastefully decorated suites at the Victorian Lady, including the Victoria Suite, Josephine Room and Isabella Room.
Special touches in the Victoria Suite include a two-person jetted tub, Renaissance Revival walnut queen-size bed and marble top dresser. Both the Josephine Room and Isabella Room offer a beautiful view of the Victorian perennial garden below and offer adjoining, private bathrooms with showers and bathtubs. The antique details at the Victorian Lady are superb - from the oil lamp chandelier over the dining room table to the pump organ in the sitting room, guests will find delight around every turn.
Vintage Inn Bed & Breakfast - Alva
The Vintage Inn Bed & Breakfast in Alva exudes charm with everything from the 1,500 pieces of leaded glass in the front corridor to the Austrian chandeliers and original clawfoot tubs. The innkeepers, who happen to be sisters, have transformed this already elegant 1906 structure into a one-of-a-kind masterpiece. Copper ceiling tiles, exposed wood beams and gold-leafed scrolls adorn the main gathering areas, while each of the five rooms has a theme all its own. Choose the Queen Anne room and rest in a luxurious queen-sized French Rococo bed or pick the Washington Suite and enjoy having the entire third floor all to yourself. Guests to this Alva bed and breakfast will experience a taste of Victorian elegance at its best.back to top

OFF is currently not a regulator operating mode but is a regulator
operating state (e.g. state is either ON or OFF). The modes define the
ON (supplying power) operating modes supported by a regulator. I should
probably add some more docs/comments here......
I assume the TWL4030's ACTIVE and STANDBY modes supply power and
probably all share the same register/bits with OFF (thus making it more
tightly coupled in the hardware).
The other two patches are fine. Would you be able to resend the first
without the OFF mode patch changes.

Curt Knudson inhales medicinal marijuana every day. He takes it to help improve his appetite. Since he was diagnosed with HIV and hepatitis, keeping weight on has been a challenge.
"With the use of marijuana, I have interest in food. It helps just with a better quality of life," said Curt Knudson.
"If I wanted a strong dose, I would probably take a brownie about this size," said Knudson.
Curt is able to purchase everything from plain marijuana to "pot butter" with a prescription from his doctor. It's legal in his state and 15 others.
Shaun Gindi - who runs a marijuana dispensary - says many of his clients are in desperate need of pain relief.
"I've had people cry on my shoulders because they've been on morphine for 20 years," said Shaun Gindi, Compassionate Pain Management.
A recent study offered insights on how medicinal marijuana works in the body. Researchers found a special molecule in pot activates a protein called cannabinoid receptor type-two. When that biological "button" is pushed, it soothes the immune system, increases bone mass and blocks pain signals.
But drug expert Mike Gimbel says "medicinal marijuana" is a joke.
"The goal of medical marijuana programs, in my opinion, is to make marijuana available to the general public, so they can have it without getting into trouble," said Mike Gimbel Drug Expert St. Joseph Medical Center.
He says there are very limited studies on the benefits. In fact, a recent review by the American Medical Association found fewer than 20 randomized clinical trials of smoked marijuana for medical uses -- which only involved 300 people total. Unlike other drugs -- marijuana has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration. It has instead become a political issue in many states.
"Why is marijuana being approved by politicians?"
"If they were serious about using it to help sick people, they would let the Food and Drug Administration handle it, because they know how to do it best."
Then -- there are the side effects. A person's heart rate increases by 20 to 100 percent shortly after smoking. One study found pot users have almost a five-fold increased risk of heart attack during the first hour of smoking. Some research has shown marijuana is linked to mental health conditions - like schizophrenia. And -- there's the debate over whether it's addictive. Most estimates suggest about nine percent of users become addicted.
"Is it addictive? Yes, and everyone knows it is. You can't solve this by legalizing it."
"My take on the marijuana battle is it is the most useless waste of energy that I have ever seen in my life."
An excuse for addiction or a real medical therapy? Right now -- the answers aren't clear-cut.

MARIJUANA AS MEDICINE THROUGHOUT HISTORY: Cannabis has been used as medicine for over 4,000 years: the ancient Egyptians used cannabis to treat sore eyes, and cannabis was used to treat earaches in ancient Greece. During the latter half of the 19th century, however, cannabis lost its image as a medicine and gained its image as a drug. In 1915, Utah was the first US state to pass an anti-marijuana law, and in 1924 cannabis was declared a narcotic at the Second International Opiates conference. The Marijuana Tax Act of 1937 effectively banned marijuana in the US, and in the 1970s, congress declared marijuana a schedule I controlled substance: it had no medicinal value and the highest potential for abuse. However, in 1996, California and Arizona became the first states to legalize marijuana for medical use under a doctor's supervision. Now, medicinal marijuana is legal in 15 states and Washington D.C. The first cannabis-based prescription medicine, a mouth spray called Sativex used to treat multiple sclerosis, was released in the UK in 2010.
PROS: People who support the use of medicinal marijuana often base their arguments on the fact that:
• Marijuana can ease the pain of a terminal illness (or in some cases, it can help ease symptoms that come as a side-effect of drugs used to treat terminal illnesses)
• Marijuana is seen as a safer, more natural way to deal with suffering associated with serious illnesses.
• There is less risk of addiction associated with marijuana.
• Out of the ten states that had legalized marijuana by the year 2006, eight states saw a decrease in teen use of marijuana between 1999 and 2006.
CONS: Those against the use of marijuana for medicinal purposes cite many concerns such as the health risks associated with marijuana and the "gateway effect," among others.
• There is a lack of legitimate, scientific studies showing marijuana's benefits, and its lack of FDA approval.
• Smoking marijuana leads to heart and lung health risks, as well as the risk of impairment of perception, judgment, learning and memory. In 2002, the British Lung Foundation reported that 3-4 marijuana cigarettes a day were just as damaging to the lungs as 20 tobacco cigarettes a day.
• Marijuana has long been considered a "gateway drug," meaning the use of marijuana can lead to harder drugs, such as cocaine or heroin.

THE SENSUOUS NURSE (L'Infermiera - 1975) - Here's the grand-daddy of all Italian sex comedies! THE SENSUOUS NURSE had a widespread release throughout the world, first filling drive-ins and second-run houses in the US, followed by a VHS release and late-night cable run during the 80's. It's no wonder this film is so popular! Sporting constant nudity from star Ursula Andress, supporting player Luciana Paluzzi (both former Bond girls) and the rest of the female cast members along with all of the elements of the genre, this one shines mostly due to an above-average script, sumptuous locations and a great cast, including the late Jack Palance as Mr. Kitch. The plot revolves around a well-to-do family who plot to kill their ailing Patriarch (Duilio Del Prete) by hiring a sexy nurse (Andress) to "love him to death". Andress works to seduce the old man as well as his grandson, played by Stefano Sabelli. The highlight for us is the rare and incredible nude scene with the luscious Paluzzi, displaying all of the ample charms once used to seduce 007 in THUNDERBALL. We're thrilled to be able to offer the original, uncut Italian-language version of this film with English subtitles in a beautiful widescreen digital-quality print, all wrapped up in nice custom box artwork.

Predicting Future Conflict under REDD+ Implementation
AbstractWith the current complexity of issues facing forest and land management, the implementation of the REDD+ initiative comes with significant risks, including conflict. While the exact nature and shape of conflict in REDD+ implementation is difficult to pinpoint, this study aims to build a preliminary predictive framework to identify possible sources of impairment that may result in conflict over management of forests and natural resources. The framework was developed from an extensive literature review and was tested in three REDD+ pilot project sites in Nepal. The results indicate that most of the sources of impairment are present in all study sites, particularly issues relating to benefit sharing, which have been main drivers of conflict prior to REDD+. While we found that the application of the framework has been useful in the Nepalese context, there are some limitations in its scope and precision. Nonetheless, this study points to important implications with regards to REDD+ implementation and conflict management that can be useful for policy makers and practitioners involved in REDD+ strategy designs, as well as other areas of forest management involving outsiders and communities.

England are two points behind Montenegro with half of the group fixtures remaining after dropping points in a home draw against Ukraine in September and their 1-1 result in Poland in October.
"I think the English are already making excuses for a possible defeat. I don't know how else to explain the fact that they are unhappy with everything," Brnovic told a news conference on Monday.
"I'm reading statements from the English players about the way the pitch will look. As far as I know, the English have always favoured long passes and I can't see why they are complaining about this. Who should it most affect? We, or England?
"It supports the fact they are more scared of this game than we are. They are also intimidated by our fans and I don't see the reason why."
Brnovic was responding to questions about whether his side would provoke striker Wayne Rooney, who was sent off the last time England played in Montenegro and has been shown red for similar displays of petulance.
"As far as I can remember, it was Rooney who got sent off the last time the two teams played here, for hitting one of our players," he said.
Rooney kicked Miodrag Dzudovic and was shown a straight red card after 74 minutes, his second in an England shirt.
"I can say such English legends and also their journalists are trying to resort for excuses for what will happen tomorrow. Everything seems to bother them," he continued.
"We keep fingers crossed for Montenegro to win but what we can say is that it will not be as big a thing as it will be if England fail. If England fail, it will cost them more. If I'm not wrong, they will be five points behind if they lose tomorrow."
"Our strikers (Stevan) Jovetic and (Mirko) Vucinic take a lot of beating in every game and never complain," Brnovic added in reference to his top-rated forwards, who play at Fiorentina and Juventus respectively.
England hope to play friendlies in November against Germany and Argentina at the same time as the playoffs to reach the World Cup next year, which would be something they will regret according to Brnovic.
"I imagine they scheduled these games before the qualifying campaign because they were confident they would win the group, but they might have to cancel those friendlies after tomorrow's match," he said.
Should England finish as one of the eight best runners-up they would have to contest a two-legged play-off to secure a berth in Brazil.
England goalkeeper Joe Hart said the side had learned from their mistakes in their last away match against Montenegro, when needing a draw to qualify for Euro 2012 the visitors let slip a 2-0 lead and had to endure a nervy finale.
"We've got to perform. Maybe we could be accused of taking our foot off the pedal as we let a 2-0 advantage slip away last time against them when we needed just a point," Hart told his club Manchester City's website.
"That is not going to be the case this time. We've got a job on our hands in an intimidating arena, but we've definitely got the capabilities. We go there with the intention of doing well against a good side."
City team-mate James Milner, rested for the 8-0 drubbing of San Marino on Friday, said the intimidating atmosphere was something that spurred him on.
"These are the sort of games you enjoy playing in, with the crowd on your back, and when you are getting a lot of stick," said the midfielder.

Thank you for the heads up regarding Honeymoon Island. We were just told by some members of The Englewood Shell Club that it is a great place to collect shells! Is the ban on only live shells or any shell?
When they went into people's trunks, were they looking into their swimming trunks or their automobile trunks?
Fri 2/8/2008 Belinda replied:
They looked into all the pails, and then made them go to their cars. Opening up the car trunk, there were other buckets in it. Although, at the time I thought perhaps they were looking for drugs. But, no they were looking for live seashells. The three of them ( in their 50's) were put into the police car with their finds and they drove off.
I found it a great place to look for shells all the way at the tip of Honeymoon Island. However, wouldn't touch a live shell!!!!
Fri 2/8/2008 Carolyn of Clearwater wrote:
Honeymoon Island is a part of the Florida State Park system. I posted something to this effect several weeks ago. No live shelling is permitted in any Florida State Park. I live very close to Honeymoon, and know of no reason why you can't pick up dead shells on the beach. Sometimes I'll find almost nothing on the beach, and other times there are many washed in--just like any other beach! It's likely to be better after strong westerly offshore winds.

Preacher Luke Edwards is the shepherd of a forlorn flock. For years his disciples have traveled the nation begging, amid allegations of abuse and mismanagement.
Five young people have died in fires at his western Alabama commune, the Holyland.
The state says the education provided to children is substandard. And former followers say there were beatings and sexual misconduct by male elders.
But the 84-year-old outlasted all the criticism and troubles. Now Edwards is at the center of a multi-million dollar plan to build a large residential school for at-risk students in rural Alabama near the Mississippi state line.
Former followers, including one of his own daughters, say they are concerned that more children could be placed at risk if the project becomes reality.

To the Editor:
I'm writing in support of Sen. Nancy Stiles, a moderate Republican, in the upcoming Republican primary on Sept. 9. As a parent of a child with a disability, I have found Sen. Stiles to be an invaluable ally in the Senate, standing up for children, families, schools and communities.
There are numerous examples of how Sen. Stiles has represented her district well, including: bills to limit the use of restraint and seclusion in schools; to establish a commission to study public-private partnerships to fund medical care for abused and neglected children; to limit the use and disclosure of protected health information; establishing a permanent commission on post-traumatic stress disorder and traumatic brain injury; Joshua's Law (to make supervised visitation centers safe for children who rely on them); and SB 414 to protect the integrity of the Medicaid-to-Schools program, which provides federal funds for specific special education services ($20 million statewide, and $475,000 in District 24 towns, annually). SB 414 will make a difference for every N.H. taxpayer, as these funds would otherwise have to come from state or local revenue sources.
Sen. Stiles is a highly respected senator with a strong track record of successfully shepherding her bills through the Legislature. She is always willing to do the hard work, the research and to talk to the right people, while asking the right questions to fully grasp the issue at hand. She is also extremely accessible to her constituents. Sen. Stiles works respectfully with other members of the Senate and House, across the political spectrum, without compromising her values.
I believe that it is critical that Sen. Stiles win this primary election against her very conservative opponent. I urge your readers to please vote for Sen. Nancy Stiles on Sept 9.
