Column as I see 'em …
Sometimes getting a problem fixed is knowing the right person to call.
I spent a couple of hours last week interviewing a fellow named Ashley Courchene, one of the residents who lives on Berdine Way, a dead end street across the highway from Honeysuckle Drive.
Ashley, who motors around the community in a power scooter, called to let me know about a big pothole in the road and share his frustration in getting someone, anyone in county government to fix it.
It used to be Superman,
Johnny Bench and then George Jones.
But lately I've been finding all my heroes
Closer to home.
—The Oak Ridge Boys
I never met Mason Rucker until I was out of college, but he quickly became one of my heroes.
If you ever got to know him, he'd be one of yours too.
Those rascally rabbits just ate 100 of my tomato plants. At least I hadn't planted them yet.
Those were my later tomatoes, but still. It was easy pickins, and my fault, because they were in a float tray, in a tub, on the ground. Oh well, the trials and tribulations of a farmer.
There have been several new gardening tips come my way lately and I thought I'd share with you this week. Gardening does have its expenses, so any time I can find a way to save, I'm on it.
Let's start with flowers.
To the editor:
We love Lawrenceburg!
We just hosted the 13th Annual Model T Speedster Tour there this past week and we have been blown away. Everybody that we worked with went out of their way to help us.
Troy Young did a great job taking pictures of our speedsters at the Healing Field. What a beautiful setting!
Thank you to the Anderson Board of Education for its help with parking.
Did you have a loved one who was not allowed to "walk" during the recent high school graduation ceremony due to unpaid student fees, athlete fees or some other technicality?
If so, I strongly advise you to go read Cheryl's gardening column because what you're about to read here is really going to bake your biscuits.
Can you believe June is almost over? If only winter would go by so fast.
On the bright side, those of you who've been too busy to get that garden planted still have time. There are a lot of vegetables that can be planted right up to fall. So, let's start with what you can plant in June.
Cedar-apple rust is the most common and economically important rust disease of apple in Kentucky. Symptoms of this disease are beginning to appear across the state. The pathogen overwinters as galls on cedar and juniper. Removal of these pathogen sources on cedar can later reduce disease incidence on apple. Once apple trees become infected limited management options are available.

A basic, no-nonsense business hotel for travelers in need of extra space.
This modern, centrally located hotel is designed around a seven-story glass atrium filled with tropical plantings, full-sized trees, koi ponds and waterfalls. This soothing setting --- as well small touches such as complimentary, made-to-order breakfasts --- is one of the many reasons the mainly business and convention clientele chooses this otherwise basic establishment. Guest rooms offer separate sitting rooms and views of Anaheim's dull industrial neighborhoods. The glass-enclosed swimming pool is pretty much the only on-site distraction from the seminars and team-building going on in the meeting and banquet rooms. While there is a complimentary shuttle to Disneyland, which is located a few miles down the road, it may behoove those traveling with children to look elsewhere.

Want to Help the Homeless? Stop funding non-profits.
In case you are wondering where I went(not likely, I'm a pretty small fish) I have been destroyed. My career fell apart somewhere around 2015, when the non profits I worked for decided I was too busy advocating for the homeless to be a "team player." I have come to hate them, (at least what they represent) and I wonder why I worked so hard for them all these years. In truth, I was working for their clients, so it only makes sense that I would be thrown overboard when their policies were exposed to be harmful to my people.
Homeless people ARE my people, and I guess this became more apparent as I worked my way into semi-leadership positions. I was not willing to have meetings behind closed doors, I was not willing to exclude those with lived experience, and I was NOT interested in playing the game.
The world has changed. I was too busy in the trenches to realize that a bunch of career-minded professionals were warping the very fabric of the agencies that at one point saved my own life.
There is nothing left of most of them, I'm afraid. I call for a moratorium on donations to homeless causes, and a return to grassroots volunteerism and roll-up-your-sleeves hard work to save lives. It is the only way to stop the bleeding out there.
Non-profits have lost their way. Period.
Look me up if you find this interesting.

With free agency around the corner, Gregg Rosenthal, the editor of NFL.com's "Around the League" blog, has unveiled his list of the top 85 free agents, tiered into five categories.
The list includes five Patriots (two more, guard Donald Thomas and safety Patrick Chung, were among those who narrowly missed the cut), kicked off by Sebastian Vollmer, Rosenthal's seventh-best free agent and a player whom he fits into the second tier: impact starters. He posits that Vollmer is more important to the Patriots' future than Wes Welker, who also cracks the impact starter tier at No. 14 overall. Rosenthal suggests that a reunion between the Patriots and Welker would come as no surprise.
Cornerback Aqib Talib checks in just behind fellow corners Sean Smith and Brent Grimes in the solid starter tier. Talib is Rosenthal's 24th-rated free agent overall.
To wrap things up, running back Danny Woodhead and wide receiver Julian Edelman are two of the final three players on Rosenthal's list and fall under the fifth and final tier of players who are effective in the right role.
It's hard to argue with his top five Patriots free agents, as Welker, Talib and Vollmer are those who had the greatest impact last season and look to attract the most interest if they hit the open market. Edelman and Woodhead are valuable offensive and special-teams commodities, and it would not be a surprise to see either or both retained by the Patriots.
The list is comprehensive and broken down nicely, laying out where a player stands relative to the entire league, not just his specific team.
Cornerback figures to be an area of interest for the Patriots this offseason, and Rosenthal's list includes a dozen players at that position. Be it through the draft or free agency, the Patriots figure to add personnel to the secondary, with Talib as a potential priority.

Credit Report Explained
In the United Kingdom, the Credit Reference Agency collects information reported by three credit reporting organizations to determine someone's credit worthiness based on money borrowed and on time bill paying history. They use past information to predict future behaviour when it comes to repaying a line of credit, such as a car note, mortgage or credit card. The Credit Reference Agency pulls information from three credit report UK companies, Experian, Equifax, and Call credits.read more
Most banks and other companies offering credit lines report to at least one of the credit reporting companies. Legally, the information that is being reported has to be up to date, legal and correct. According to the Data Protection Act 1998, consumers have the right to see their credit report at any time and can request a copy in the mail for a small fee. But there are options to obtain your credit report UK for free online.
A quick search for my credit report explained will pull up many offers from companies that allow access to your credit report with a membership. To ensure that you are receiving up to date, legal and correct information it is best to start with the three reporting credit agencies, Equifax, Experian and Call credits. You may find that the agencies will provide a free credit report during a trial period of membership that can be cancelled at any time, free of charge.
It is often the case that not all three credit reporting agencies may have the same information. If a company does not report to all three, the information may be missing on one credit report but listed on the other. This will also affect your credit score. There are options that provide report from all three agencies, with combined information to consumers. This will give you a more broad sense of your financial status. When applying for a line of credit, an appropriate question to ask if what credit reference agency are they pulling the report from. It may be that the company is only pulling information from two out of the three agencies.
Call credit is the smallest of the three credit reference agencies; it is only beat out by size when it comes to Experian and Equifax. Call credit works closely with its US counterpart TransUnion. And as far as a free online credit report, Call credit is the only agency to offer a free service for life for UK citizens. The service is called Noddle. The founder of Noddle, Tom lube refers to your credit report as your 'financial passport'. Since major credit providing companies use this as a decision maker on whether or not you are approved for a mortgage or any other credit line, Tom wanted to make sure consumers were using the information for themselves, just as much to insure full understanding of your financial situation. The service was also providing as a way for consumers to protect themselves.
Being able to view my free credit report also helps alleviate any fears of identity theft. Being able to check a free online credit report on occasion, users will be able to find any discrepancies and dispute them before they can have adverse effects to their credit. Consumers will be able to find fraudulent charges before it is too late. Anyone who has been a victim of identity theft can verify that a fraudulent charge does not just go away, it continues you to affect your credit indefinitely.

Last summer, BBTS increased the base prices of Bridgestone brand bus and truck radial tires up to 6 percent in the U.S.
BBTS, which is a division of Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations LLC, manufactures medium and heavy duty truck tires for the original equipment and replacement markets in the U.S. and Canada. It also offers retreading through its Bandag brand.

Unit labor costs and productivity in manufacturing, 2010
February 07, 2011
From 2009 to 2010, unit labor costs in the manufacturing sector fell 4.5 percent—the largest decline since the series began in 1988.
Over the year, labor productivity—defined as output per hour—grew 6.0 percent in 2010. This increase was the largest annual increase in output per hour since 2003, when output per hour increased 6.3 percent. The productivity gain reflected a 6.6-percent increase in output combined with a 0.6-percent increase in hours.
From 2009 to 2010, productivity grew 8.2 percent in durable goods manufacturing and 3.5 percent in nondurable goods industries.
These data are from the Productivity and Costs program and are subject to revision. For more information, see "Productivity and Costs: Fourth Quarter and Annual Averages 2010, Preliminary" (HTML) (PDF), news release USDL-11-0128.

- Conference date: 21–25 May 2012
- Location: Beijing, China
Research on ocean reverberation has practical and scientific significance. Much progress has been made in the past three decades to improve our understanding of reverberation. However, there remain important unanswered questions and a real scarcity of high-quality basic research data sets. New progress on the reverberation modeling and the low-frequency (LF) seabed scattering characterization in shallow water (SW) requires three essential conditions: 1). A reliable reverberation model using a physics-based seabed scattering function, 2). Carefully calibrated broadband reverberation data, and 3). A ground truth about the seabed geoacoustic model. Some related work on these topics is introduced in this paper. The energy flux method for SW reverberation is briefly introduced. Integration of this method with physics-based seabed scattering models directly and intuitively results in a general expression for SW reverberation. A simple relationship between the classic scattering cross-section and the modal scattering matrix is derived. Some basic research data sets, including the reverberation level/vertical coherence as a function of time, frequency, depth/hydrophone separation and sea state, are reported. Reverberation data and model predictions are in good agreement, which results in some inversion results. The HF seabed scattering models and the energy flux method-derived reverberation model are validated using LF reverberation broadband data.

The recent work session that discussed Aiken City Council concerns about the Aiken Department of Public Safety was critically important for Public Safety and City of Aiken residents. It was needed to address a large number of issues that have been building for the past several years. Without question, there were adverse effects of unimaginable proportions caused by the line of duty deaths of two officers in 2011 and 2012. While they are difficult to explain, they are there as they are in military units, which suffer mortal wounds.
Nonetheless, there are other areas which have generated concerns by Council before and after the recent tragedies. Repeated requests for data to properly evaluate the current compensation of Public Safety sworn officers with those agencies to which several have transferred will soon be met. Adequate compensation for all city employees is necessary to retain the experience and maximize the output to meet the ever-increasing challenges the City faces. Turnover is a problem throughout the City. In addition to the 31 percent turnover at Public Safety, other staff turnover is 34 percent. There is much to be done to reduce turnover to the generally accepted level of 10 percent.
Another major issue the department faces is low morale. I have heard from several sources that morale is suffering for a number of reasons. This poses a unique challenge to much of the senior management of the department, which has on balance more than 25 years of experience. They are being tasked to work with 30 officers with less than two years with the department. Unfortunately, the majority of the senior staff does not deal directly with the officers on patrol. There is a captain who, with help from lieutenants and sergeants, supervises the four shifts. He reports directly to the director. With morale problems, it is critical that the director and captain in charge spend as much time as possible with these inexperienced officers.
Some officers are forced to work extra hours for which they receive overtime pay after working three consecutive days of 12-hour shifts. It used to be that these assignments were coveted, but the younger generation prefers family time or personal time and would not work these assignments if given the choice. Some of these assignments could be for three hours. It might help for the City to consider a minimum period of work for these jobs.
Council was shocked that the City has no exit interview program for Public Safety officers who leave employment. While the director stated that he personally interviews each person leaving, we need a better system. All employees who leave for any reason, voluntary or involuntary, should complete an exit interview with Human Resources. These interviews must be reviewed by the City Manager who should resolve problems as noted and keep City Council aware of issues.
There is no grievance system in the City. We need a system, similar to the militarys Inspector General system, where employees can anonymously report problems. This could be a telephone hot line, which would be monitored by a senior member of the staff such as the assistant city manager.
Given the turnover problem in the City, we need an independent employee survey to identify some of the problems causing the morale problems in the City. This survey should be the responsibility of City Council. We should hire the firm and the results should be directly furnished to members of Council.
While police departments operate on a seniority system, that system should not affect the use of vehicles. New vehicles should first go to the patrol units. From several sources, the take-home policy of the department should be reviewed to ensure that patrol units have the best equipment.
Many residents are unaware of the manning issues at our fire stations. We hire apparatus drivers who maintain the fire vehicles and drive them to the scene of the fire to be used by the Patrol Officers who are also fire trained (i. e. graduate from the South Carolina Fire Academy). These drivers have no career path and have had no substantial wage increases in years. In addition to their station duties, they conduct fire inspections and maintain an inspection program for the Citys fire hydrants. While the compensation study we receive will focus on sworn police officers, we need to pay attention to this class of employees.
In fact, during our budget process, which is scheduled to begin in April, we should review our entire compensation system. The focus should be to ensure they are adequately compensated not merely to give raises. We need to remember that taxpayers foot the bill for city operations and we owe them the duty to spend their money wisely.

Milwaukee Film Festival picks: Day Ten
Rain and movies go together like ... well, you pick the metaphor. But you don't need bad weather to attend the Milwaukee Film Festival Saturday. Here are reasons to do so.
- "Sign Painters" (4:30 p.m., Oriental Theatre) Documentary directed by Faythe Levine and Sam Macon that Art City writer Mary Louise Schumacher calls "a dive into the toolboxes and tricks of the sign painters" who "change the urban landscape with their own hands and who defy the kind of washed-out sameness that has crept into American cities."
- "The Angels' Share" (4 p.m., Fox-Bay Cinema Grill) Cannes Festival Jury prize-winning comedy by the usually dour Ken Loach about a troubled youth who discovers he has a nose for quality whisky and hatches a scheme to steal a rare spirit. Watch the trailer below.
- "Spinning Plates" (4 p.m., Oriental) Documentary about a struggling Mexican restaurant, a family-style community landmark and the nouvelle cuisine of Chicago's Alinea whose chef was stricken with a cancer that threatened his senses of taste and smell. What starts out as a foodie film ends up a portrait of struggle, perseverance and triumph. Watch the trailer below.
- "An Evening With Paul Attanasio" (7:30 p.m., Oriental) Paul Attanasio, Oscar-nominated screenwriter of "Donnie Brasco" and "Quiz Show," executive producer of "Homicide: Life on the Street" and "House, and brother of Milwaukee Brewers owner Mark Attanasio, appears at a career retrospective conducted by Jonathan Jackson, the festival's artistic and executive director.

Starting out as a self-taught and baladi dancer, Ouizguen has been a committed advocate of the local dance scene in Marrakech since 1998. In 2002, she partnered with Taoufiq Izeddiou to found the Anania Association. Eight years later, Ouizguen founded her own company, O. In 2010, she was awarded the New Choreographic Talent Award from France's Society of Dramatic Authors and Composers. Her performances include Ana Ounta (2002), Mort et Moi (2005), Aita (2007), Madame Plazza (2010), Voyage Cola (with Alain Buffard, 2011), HA! (2012), Corbeaux (2014), and OTTOF (2015). ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE Corbeaux /بارغ – Bouchra Ouizguen | Dance performance, 35' | 2014 In Corbeaux, Ouizguen returns to the themes of origin and sensation – the connection to the mother, earth, and love.

Dear Abby: Because of a medical condition, my husband of 30 years can no longer drive a car - so now he is driving me nuts. Not only does he tell me how to drive ("You're too far to the right," or "Watch out for that car!" or " I'd go this way," etc.), but he feels it is his responsibility to remotely lock/unlock the car doors, remotely start the car - anything having to do with the car but drive it. We end up "canceling" each other out when I try to start the car or lock it.
Please tell me how to solve the dilemma. - Exasperated in Ohio
Dear Exasperated: You should. However, when a man can no longer drive and his wife must take over, some males regard it as a blow to their masculinity. What your husband is doing is an attempt to reassert himself in his former role, and while it may annoy you, please try harder to understand why he's doing what he's doing and be more tolerant.
Dear Abby: I am a 29-year-old woman who lost my beloved mother a few months ago. A sudden illness took her quickly. I made the difficult decision to remove her from life support when there was no longer any hope.
Mom raised me by herself, and we saw each other every day. She was my best friend. I don't know how to go on without someone to love me like she did.
I would like your opinion on an idea I have. There must be a mother somewhere who has lost an adult child and has love to give. I could reciprocate that love. I do not wish to replace my mom - that would be impossible. She was an amazing woman. I just need someone to care for me that way. I am loved as a wife, niece and friend but no longer as someone's child. I need to give and receive that kind of unconditional love. Is this unhealthy? - Daughter Of An Angel in Alabama
Dear Daughter: Please accept my deepest sympathy for the loss of your beloved mother. I know you are grieving, but what you have in mind could cause you more problems than you already have.
Right now, joining a grief-support group or talking with a therapist who specializes in the grieving process would be far more helpful for you than immediately trying to fill the hole in your life left by your mother's death. I am concerned that what you are considering could lead to you being cruelly exploited.
The love a mother experiences for her child is not interchangeable or replaceable in the way you are thinking of doing it.
Dear Abby: Am I alone in feeling insulted that the only time I am invited to "friends" homes is when they have something to sell? First, it was food storage items, then jewelry and clothing, and now it's food supplements that will "change my life."
Some of these invitations come from people who have been to my home for dinners or parties but have never reciprocated - until now.
Although I would love to be in their homes socially, I have no intention of going for a sales pitch so they can get free stuff, gain points or whatever.
Do I even owe them an RSVP for this kind of invitation? - Solicited In Redwood City, Calif.
Dear Solicited: I understand your feelings, but if you want to continue having a social relationship with these people, then politely RSVP with your regrets. To ignore the invitation would be a breach of good manners.

Authorities are searching for a 43-year-old mentally disabled man who has been missing from a hospital since this morning.
Bobby Earl Henslee Jr. was last seen at Gracewood State Hospital about 2:45 a.m., according to a Richmond County sheriff's report. Hospital officials believe he left the hospital through an unsecured window about 3:15 a.m. Henslee could pose a threat to himself or others, according to the report.
He was last seen wearing a gray shirt with blue stripes, blue jeans and white tennis shoes. Henslee is described as white, with brown hair and hazel eyes, about 5 feet 5 inches tall, weighing about 185 pounds.
someone was sleeping on the job that is how Bobby left he or she was sleeping hard night shift does it all the time on these kind of jobs
There should be a follow up story saying they he was recaptured before this story was posted on the AC.
Missing mental/elderly patients is becoming all too common. What is the staff doing at night? It's obvious they're not periodically or not periodically "enough" checking on the residents. Certain 3rd shift jobs require little more than just staying awake and semi alert, as opposed to "working" the entire shift. I wish someone would pay me money to "not go to sleep on duty"! Let's get it together staff.......these incidents don't always have a happy ending!!
The article states he was last seen at 2:45am and believe he left around 3:15am, evidently someone on the night shift WAS checking on him to know exactly what time of early morning he was last seen. I'm more concerned about the unsecured window.
If he is 5'5 and 185 lbs. keep a check on all the Krispy Kreme's in Augusta. Someone of those proportions isn't going to get far without getting hungry. What was he doing with blue jeans and tennis shoes on at 2:15am? Shouldn't he have been appropriately dressed for bed?
Hey Maninthemirror, is it possible he was dressed for bed, but then changed into whatever clothes were in his room? The staff should have an inventory of his clothing, and can therefore say what he's probably wearing. However, they still shouldn't say he was last seen with those clothes on if he really wasn't. Some people do fall asleep fully dressed, though.
Well there's no fence around the property, so it's really not that hard for someone to escape from Gracewood.
I heard he's running for governor and leading in the polls now...

Thanksgiving at Marsha's Vineyard
Year: 2008 Holiday: Fall Shared by: marshavnyd
We do a very big Halloween display, so Thanksgiving is quite small, but not forgotten. The tree is from Z Gallerie and is a joy to decorate. The small lights are from Pottery Barn from a few years ago. If you ever see them, snap them up. They're perfect for small trees as they're quite short strands, have clear cords and are decorated with small glass balls.
Click any picture to see it full size.
The tree is surrounded by pumpkins, a turkey and a harvest corny gal.
This corny gal is from Julie Karanik, Papier People Originals. The pumpkins are from Deebee Thiebault and Williams-Sonoma
This turkey is celebrating the fact that he won't end up on anyone's table but mine. He's a Kelly Hartley WeeOne.
Closer to the tree.
Close up of the tree top. If you look closely, you can see the small glass balls wired to the lights.

Re: keyboard soundswithfeeling Jan 4, 2011 11:35 AM (in response to MBM0327)
If you look elsewhere on this forum you will see several threads related to sound in general turning off until a reboot under some circumstances. For example the thread "sound issues" on this same NOOKcolor Technical Support forum. Does that apply to you? Are you hearing sound from other sources when the keyboard turns off? Try:
Re: keyboard soundsLu-La-Bell Jan 4, 2011 11:38 AM (in response to MBM0327)I had the same issue..But I didn't notice it until I tried to listen to the Pandora radio- anyway, I ended up exchanging mine for a different one and my new nook color does not have any sound issues. Check the other forums, there are some nook colors that are having sound issues, that's how I found out.

Hudson Review
"Ted Kooser's Sure Signs could well become a classic, precisely because so many of the poems are not only excellent but are readily possessible."
Black Warrior Book Review
"Sure Signs is complete and mature work of poetry. There is little in contemporary poetry that can compare with it in excellence. . . . I find myself surprised at its freshness, the purity of the writing, its open-eyed honesty, its humor and kindliness, its strength of character, its overwhelming sense of place, and so much more. . . . I see it as a lasting work, comparable to the best of the Spoon River or Frost in his richest vein."
Karl Shapiro
"We had known, some of us, that Ted Kooser was good, but how good this substantial volume tells. He has, with his wit and his earthiness, his imagination and his lucidity, staked out as his own a regionwestern it issomewhere poetically between Frost and Williams (he shows us, to our surprise, how close they were). It is, in short, a volume we can all feeland we will in the indefinite futuregrateful for."
Theodore Weiss
"[These poems] are evocative of loneliness, friendships, great distances, the value of things usually disregarded and of lives usually unsung; and all this in a way that is pecularly American."
Denise Levertov
