Building trust early: the influence of first and second order expectations on trust in international channels of distribution
Scenario-based survey data from export managers in the U.S. and Peru are used to explore interactive decision-making in an international distribution channel context. Export managers' first and second order expectations [J. Acad. Market. Sci. 13 (1985) 4] are operationalized in terms of affect- and cognition-based trust mechanisms [Soc. Forces 63 (1985) 967] and are examined in relation to multi-stage interactive decision-making. Findings suggest that building trust early is more dependent on matching, rather than exceeding, a partner's expectations. In addition, managers who heavily weigh their beliefs of what others expect of them in decision-making, tend to make affect-based decisions in the early stages of an interorganizational relationship. Finally, consistent with culture-based theories on in-group/out-group orientation, Peruvian export managers were more likely than US export managers to focus on a more instrumental, or cognitive, approach to building an initial export-import relationship.

Sunday, February 14, 2010, 5:27 p.m. — A week ago at this time, it was an hour before kickoff and I was adrift in a sea of blue pride, shouting at a crowd of "Who Dats," buoyed by the boundless optimism and certainty that this was "destiny" and "Peyton's Time."
A week later, I still can't bring myself to watch the game I Tivoed, read any articles on the Super Bowl, or even watch SportsCenter (the worst moment was when I caught a Drew Brees Disney World ad and weighed my odds of putting my foot through my television at 50/50). In all the flurry of media attention and pundits anointing a legacy still left unwritten, it never occurred to me that the Colts could in fact lose.
As a native Hoosier who fell asleep in the RCA Dome of the Colts home opener as an eight-year-old, I've supported the team through thick and thin, from Hogeboom to Captain Comeback. Upon arriving in South Beach the Friday before my first Super Bowl I was immediately blown away by the sheer enormity of it. From getting off the plane seeing Saints and Colts fans from six to 60 taunting each other from all angles, to the airport to the Haitian cabbie describing Peyton Manning as the best quarterback of all time even though the NFL was "rigged to let the Saints win", I found every aspect of every culture immersed in all things Super Bowl.
Staying in South Beach gave my friends and I an all-access pass to the pandemonium of the weekend. We quickly realized one glaring fact: we were outnumbered by Saints fans (whom we dubbed, "Who Dats") by a ratio of 4 to 1. The mix of fans ranged from the respectable to the obscene, but they all shared intense passion and belief that the Saints were a team of destiny.
In true blue fashion, the Colts fans fought back, giving as good as we got, but you could see it in the eyes of the Saints fans how much this single game meant the them and for that we could find no fault.
South Beach had one long strip of bars and Super Bowl festivities set up. That's probably the greatest thing I enjoyed — interaction of all the fans, celebrities, and media. We got pics in front of Ocho Cinco's newest ride, bumped into Isaiah Thomas, Evander Holyfield, Emeril, and were 20 feet away from Ditka, Chris Mortenson, Keyshawn, and the entire ESPN crew.
There were times in between takes when the SportCenter analysts would simply stare at the crowd, and you could tell deep down they were enjoying this revelry as much as any fan. The power of Super Bowl turns every fan into an excited 11-year old and as the weekend progressed, the swell of emotions ranging from hope to anxiety reached a crescendo. Crowds grew more boisterous and for the first time friendly heckling broke into a few instances of fisticuffs.
A Hoosier-style pregame outside of the Super Bowl venue
On game day, our two-man crew had become a group of six as friends with last-minute tickets arrived to add to our excitement. The constant debate over a breakfast of Bloody Mary's and Mojitos was over arrival: what was too early, what was too late? We set off a generous six hours ahead of kickoff, paying $20 per person to the cabbie to get us to the stadium.
What they don't tell you is even that early once you are within a half mile the road turns into a parking lot. We jumped out and headed to the local Wal-Mart to grab a cooler full of pregame. The 20-minute walk to the stadium seemed to fly by as everyone within earshot either called out to us in support or insult.
Like an ancient castle, Sun Life Stadium rose like a beacon in the distance with an erected fence barricade along its outskirts. In this area surrounding the stadium was a moat of drunken fans and media taking it in. The closest thing I can relate it to is Georgetown Road the night before the Indianapolis 500. You didn't have to have a ticket to be there, enjoying your own beer was allowed, and pretty much anything other then fighting was allowed.
We quickly established a section and had a great afternoon meeting with fellow Hoosiers as well as Colts fans from all across the country. We were even interviewed by an Australian division of Esquire magazine comparing football to futbol. It seemed our fans had two schools of thought: either sip slowly and remember the entire day, or tailgate like it was freshman year.
As kickoff approached, we hustled our way into the stadium through two layers of polite but efficient security, and though we had 30 minutes before the National Anthem, it was like walking into a ghost town with so many fans already in their seats. One neat run in we has was with Matt Ellis, the Colts fan from Auburn, Indiana, with all the signature tattoos from players. He was very polite and we posed for a quick picture before jogging/running to the gate.
I was very lucky in our seats as my neighbor's dad is a ticket broker and while expensive ($1,600), for the experience they were well worth it as I had been quoted nearly $700 more for worse seats. Taking my seat on the 20-yard line in the lower middle section of the upper deck I sat dazed for a few minutes taking in the sheer enormity of the event. With the Florida A&M band playing/dancing a tribute to a young Michael Jackson, the sun had just began to set and the palpable buzz from eager fans rippled my arm with goosebumps.
A view from the seats at SunLife Stadium
What's great about the Super Bowl is that your seats are random so you sit amongst every type of fan from all walks of life. Moments before the National Anthem a goateed man in his early 50s that sat to my left said nonchalantly, "I have $10,000.00 on the anthem being under 1:44." Such is the random grouping of people that come to this spectacle of a football game, from the die-hard fans to the very affluent (in case anyone was wondering, Carrie Underwood ran 1:43).
The game itself was a blur. I can say that I called the Garçon touchdown moments before the ball was snapped and that the two halves were like watching separate games. The first half was slow but steady and we thought the Colts had the game in the bag, that Peyton was learning very similar to the AFC Championship.
One thing you don't realize when watching the game at home is just how long the extended half time is for the Super Bowl. It really lets the losing team have extra time to scheme and plan. The onside kick to open the second half changed everything. I feel sorry for Hank Baskett as he and his wife have done a very good job giving positive press about how much they love living in the city of Indianapolis, but that singular play swung the game in a completely different direction.
Already outnumbered in the crowd, Colts fans began to be drowned out by howling Saints fans who had been happy just to be there in the first half and now truly believed. Peyton's interception ended things for the Colts and all I'll say about that is that he was doing all he could do with an O-line being dominated, and that from our vantage point, it looked like Reggie Wayne ran a halfhearted route.
As the final whistle blew Saints fans sat in disbelief, some chanting, "Who Dat" with others sitting there with tears streaming down their faces. I'll never forget getting to the tunnel and seeing a sea of blue as if every single Colts fan had the same idea: get away as fast as possible.
Outside the stadium, chaos ensued as the friendly police did their best to quell drunken fans from becoming drunken mobs. The worst example was a Colts fan in his 20s with a metal prosthetic leg grabbing the microphone from a preacher and chanting, "Jesus Sucks!" over and over again. This continued until the preacher cold-cocked him, splitting the amputee's head open. As blood spurted from his head onto his Manning jersey, he attacked the preacher. With cops flying to the scene, we didn't stick around to see who won that decision.
With cabbies now charging $50-100 per person, we begrudgingly began heading back to South Beach. We chose to change out of our jerseys not because we were embarrassed about losing (which we were) but moreso to avoid possible altercations (which we saw). Trying to make lemonade out of the bitterest of sports lemons, we headed to dinner and drinks. None of us felt like setting the night on fire and we all made our way back to the hotel very early.
At 5 a.m., I finally stopped replaying the game over and over in my mind, and realized how far the Colts franchise had come from its first move from Baltimore. I caught two hours of sleep knowing we'd be back next year with a healthy Marlin Jackson, Bob Sanders, and Anthony Gonzalez. Outside on the streets you could still hear the chants of, "Who Dat". This Super Bowl belonged to the Saints, and nothing will ever change that — but next year is anyone's game.
Andre J. Boulais is a lifelong Colts fan who's supported the team through Trev Alberts, The Triplets, and the city's first Super Bowl. He and his friends were also season ticket holders for the first season in Lucas Oil Stadium. Andre's entire downstairs Man Cave is dedicated to all things Colts, complete with playoff posters of the Colts Super Bowl-winning run as well as Peyton's then-record touchdown year.

Nice to see you Volkan on this magnificent geological formation. Greetings and take care, Miša.
Thank you Misa. I hope you and your wife sees these wonderlands as well. I was very much impressed. Best wishes :) Volkan
Dear Volkan, agree with Miša. Yes, nice to see the "lost stranger/alien" in this stunning landscape. Has the ground been created by geological faults or by deposits ? Anyway, it looks fantastic ... you too my friend :-) Greetings, Andreas
Dear Andreas, the geology in these areas to my knowledge based on sand stone which is eroded by water rain and winds. Thank you for your kind comments, best wishes from Chicago. Volkan
Volkan thanks for information. It must be a very sloping bottom there when I see your leg positioning. Carry on with such natural photos. Take care, Andreas
Yes Andreas, where I was standing was steeper than it appears :) There are so much to see, yes, got to carry on :) Best wishes from California, Volkan
Aahh, now in California. California will help to remove homesickness :-). Take care, Andreas
Yes Andreas hazy conditions, dry grass on the hills same as in my hometown. Like you said I felt that I was at home for a while :) Take care, Volkan
Volkan, I thought in such way. On the other hand I know that you're a citizen of the world. I heard of many forest fires in Calofornia because of the heat. But there is still the ExTerminator as Governor - this should help :-)) Greetings, Andreas
Thank you Volkan to add me to the X-3D photographers list. Viewing images in your panoramio gallery I guess you are probably professional pilot. My name is Ivica Kis. I am architect and professor in the school of applied arts in Zagreb (Croatia). My surveys on stere0sc0pical images last since 1978. It is interesting to know why (and how) this ability was forgotten. On the very start of photography in 19th century there was parallel production of monoscopic and stere0sc0pic cameras, and in our era of digitalization first stereoscopic digital camera (SONY) appeared last year (3 decades after beginning of commercial digitalization). There is link to my small present for you http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/8084/volkanyukselonrocksterexh6.jpg my stere0sc0pization of your self portrait. Best wishes from Zagreb, Ivica (kaygod) e-mail: email@example.com
Hello Professor Kis, I am honored with your visit and gift, thank you very much :) Yes, I think in the over commercialized world of photography this extremely simple but unbelievably effective technique has been unfortunately suppressed or as you mentioned forgotten. Mostly with amateur efforts, we are trying to make it known to everyone as an option or additional dimension to their existing photographic abilities. I again I am very happy that intellect as yourself has joined the team.
I wish I was a pilot but, I am perhaps the only person among the passengers who takes the flight as serious as the pilot does :) I am MSc Electronics Engineer. I usually plan in advance where to have seat according to the location of the Sun and potential sights during the flight and clean the windows with weird looks of other passengers that has no idea about my intension. I usually contact to pilots before flight so that they know what I am doing. So far, I accomplished most of my aerial X-3D missions, but as you'd know there is no such think as enough 3D images :D
With my very best wishes to Zagreb from Chicago, Volkan
Well, thank you again for link to the gift Kaygod :) One of our talented X-3D photographer Jessica G. has done similar operation to a single image using Photoshop and generated the 3D version.
Best wishes, Volkan
Magnificent geological formation!

Radiation levels has always been a hot topic in the industry. There are conflicting reports when it comes to cell phones and their emitted radiation on human tissue, and as it stands today, no one really knows the true effects of cellphones on humans. Whether or not radiation emitted by our cellphones is damaging, it is always a good idea to take precaution when limiting you daily usage.

Runs flow for dominant England
Follow England's tour of India on ecb.co.uk - click here for all the latest news, exclusive interviews, video highlights and match reports
Kevin Pietersen led the way with a powerful 94-ball 110 as England made hay against a modest Haryana attack in their final warm-up game ahead of the first Test with India.
Runs proved easy to come by for the tourists, who closed on 408 for four with Pietersen having retired towards the end of the opening day in order to give others an opportunity to gain time in the middle.
Alastair Cook, who fell three short of a second successive century, and Nick Compton shared 166 for the opening wicket in quick time and there was to be no respite for Haryana as Jonathan Trott and Ian Bell also cashed in on an even batting surface.
Trott's 46 represented the lowest score in England's top five, with Compton reaching 74 and Bell unbeaten on 57 at stumps.
Bell had good reason to be pleased with his own batting, after a slow start to the tour, particularly because he had to begin his innings against frontline spin - an unusual state of affairs for England's middle order to date, but one they know will be routine once the Tests begin.
"It was good to start against a quality spinner like (Amit) Mishra, play against him early in my innings - the sort of thing that is going to happen in the Test matches," Bell said.
"He's played a lot of Test cricket. To start against him was exactly what I needed going into this Test match."
Bell's method was to go immediately on the attack, almost from ball one.
"I feel confident coming down the wicket ... I just want to be busy," he added.
"We've talked quite a lot about using your feet, forward and backwards, so it was just trying to get as much good footwork going as possible.
"We've faced a lot of seam on this tour so far, and we can't control what we come up against. But Mishra's actually bowled a few overs in the end, which is great for Kevin and me to spend a bit of time against him."
Only a solitary over of spin was employed during the morning session, Haryana captain Mishra initially sticking to India's apparent plan to deprive England of meaningful practice against slow bowling.
Cook, who sat out the game against Mumbai A after compiling a hundred in the tour opener, wasted little time in stamping his authority on proceedings after winning the toss.
Among his 20 fours were three in an over against Sanjay Budhwar, including an uncharacteristically expansive cover-drive.
There was scarcely an alarm for the captain or Compton, who gradually grew in stature and drove well through the off-side before lofting off-spinner Jayant Yadav over long-off to reach his half-century.
Pietersen and Bell would later bring up their own fifties in the same manner, epitomising England's dominance.
Cook was within one blow of three figures when he edged Yadav behind to be caught by Sandeep Singh, who had just replaced the injured Nitin Saini as wicketkeeper.
Mishra - a leg-spinner boasting 13 Test caps - eventually brought himself into the attack and had Compton lbw with his seventh delivery, a quicker one that beat the opener's defensive push.
Trott also fell leg before to Mishra when sweeping shortly after tea, but Pietersen and Bell then combined to excellent effect.
It was Bell who initially took up the attack, the Warwickshire batsman clearing the ropes off Mishra during a confident start to his innings.
Pietersen was soon in full flow, however, and he even unveiled a new shot - a 'reverse-scoop' perhaps the closest description - to manufacture runs fine on the off side when Yadav returned.
Haryana had their chances to remove Pietersen; Yadav spilled a sharp return chance on 42, while Amit Vashisht was guilty of a poor drop in the deep as the 32-year-old neared a century.
Such errors merely summed up a day when England were able to saunter into a position of control.

June 17th, 2014 by John Kim / 46
The long NBA season came to a close on Sunday night, with the San Antonio Spurs closing out the 2013-2014 campaign by winning its fifth NBA title. While Spurs fans (and what seems like the rest of the nation) are happy with the outcome, that leaves sneaker fans without any celebratory sneaker release; we predicted some sort of three-peat Pack if Miami won, and there's no doubt that a Nike LeBron "Three-peat" release would be one of the best releases of the year. Instead, the flipside of the Nike LeBron 11 spectrum is emphasized; LeBron James rarely wore the LeBron 11 during the season, option for the lower-priced Soldier VII throughout the Playoffs. Did his lack of on-feet wears influence his fans?
It's safe to say that in the signature athlete dominated industry, it's absolutely paramount that the athlete in question wear the sneaker day in and day out. After all, LeBron's sneaker sales have skyrocketed in tandem with his success in basketball, and seeing Nike LeBrons on his feet night in and night out made them all the more desirable. The official sales numbers of the LeBron 11 aren't in yet, but there's an argument for both sides – sales are still increasing because the shoes look dope, or LeBron numbers are dipping because the guy ain't wearing them anymore. We asked our readers on Twitter to chime in, so check out some of the responses and let us know who you relate to the most.

He's a soldier fan.
Ugly as hell and mad uncomfortable...the Lebron 11 is one big fail imo.
Perfect for my flat feet
They is terrible
Those are wack my crackhead grandma won't even wear
I didn't care, AT ALL, about LeBron not liking the XI. The shoe looks fantastic and it's built like a tank. I copped 3 different pairs...
Chris Miller
Lbj hated the drop in midsole concept. shit keeps shifting inside while doing sharp movements.
they're fucking 280 in Canada lol
@Colinbarrow the only thing ahead of its time is the freaking price tag,
no he wasnt pretty obvious right? he only wore them 36 times the whole season
Good question he don't always wear the 11's even the elite's he love to play with the soldier 7
i don't think it matters if he wore them or not, what does have to do with anything? i wouldn't buy shoes based on the player wearing on them the only thing important to me is that i like them end of story
kings pride were FUEGO! Tell you the truth the shoes just different. People may be sleeping on these now but in the future they will be copping these like crazy. These will be the same story like the air jordan 11s. They were just ahead of their time.
not at all for one the design looks sub par to me along with the colorways then on top of that the price tag. Overall they just weren't worthwhile to me i think we're past that faze of worrying about what athletes wear this isn't the 90's anymore where people get influenced off kicks on the court.
@flockaveli He never had this issue with any of his other shoes so there was an issue with the 11s.
only a few pairs sold out in my city most sat on the shelves but i dont think thats because he didnt wear them i think the 200 price tag was a factor also the shoes design isnt all that good the pairs that did sellout here were the themed pair the chrismas, gumbo league, BHM, and the everglades pair but the guys at foot locker told me they had a lot of returns of the shoe because a peice on the toe kept popping/breaking. but seeing him not wear the shoe probably persuaded repeat buyers to not buy them
No, I bought the Everglades simply because of the appearance and comfort wasn't a problem for me.
Shit is soooo ass backwards. People actually spend 200 on these sneakers
cause they thought he was gonna wear it?! You gotta be kidding me. [the shits embarrassing] When
did we get away from buying what we liked cause we liked it and we worked damn hard to get it. Let it be
known that if you bought this shoe cause you THOUGHT LaBwan was gonna
wear it in the playoffs or the finals your a dickrider to the 10th
power. That ish is bogus. Seems a bit irresponsible to spend 200 on a
pair of sneakers in hopes of achieving an amazing resale value. Remember
the days when we spent 200 bucks of our hard owned money on shoes we
were gonna beat to shit?? Yall kids need to restrategize and reorganize your
priorities cause from where I am standing and looking there aint no more
leaders just a bunch of sheep waiting to be herded. I dont want to wish
ill fated luck on yall... but to all you kids, adults, obseessed fans, grandmas basement living welfare check suckin, spineless, parasitic resellers, I really hope the next pair of LaBwans
you buy has a fucking nail in the toe box.
@nolunch2605 Jesus lol..
LeBron 11 is a alright model as far has looks go. The colorways were fire, but I didnt see these as comfortable as everyone says they are. I tried them on multiple times and they bother my feet even with .5 size up. I just cant do it.
His 11 will not be remembered like Jordan's 11. Just sayin.
I am curious as to how nike botched the comfort level for the man the shoe is named after but honestly that had no effect on me as a consumer. Me & lebron don't have the same feet & they're actually pretty comfortable IMO. I'm a much bigger fan of his shoes than I am of him anyways.
That shoe sucked harder than LeBron in the NBA finals. 200 bucks for a shoe that dude won't even wear? That dude and his shoes are terrible...
I Have been waiting to chime in on this very topic! Why would anyone pay the $200.00 price tag on something the sponsored athlete is not even comfortable wearing? What is strange is that Manu Ginobili Wore the Lebron11's most of the year and look wear they got him. Also that PE color way of his needs to released. Grey on Grey looked good
@MR_1989 You Nike ID that shit lol. But seriously I agree. If i'm going to spend $200 on a shoe it better be some official heat. The shoe itself is not bad but the asking price is OD.
didnt buy one pair.....lbj can tell the difference between a good look and a not so one...props to him!
I think it's interesting that he didn't wear them because they weren't as comfortable as the Soldiers when that shouldn't happen in the first place. Him not wearing them shouldn't affect you unless you don't like them, have certain feet issues, or it just doesn't fit your play style.Unless you're a hypebeast, you should buy what fits you.
I have both soldiers and lebron 11s and the lebrons are much more comfortable. The 11s have zoom/lunarlon insoles, and all the soldier has is a small amount of zoom in the midsole.
The LeBron 11 was an ugly shoe. By far one of LeBron's worst shoes. I don't own a pair but a lot of people have said the shoe is uncomfortable. No colorway besides the "Christmas" edition flew off the shelves in my city. These shoes stayed in the shoe stores at my local mall. I'm glad LeBron didn't wear that ugly shoe. Plus this years model had terrible colorways. The people who bought the Forging Irons for $250 should be mad as hell because they should have been $200 just like all the other regular release LeBrons. Nike made them a limited release just to get people to buy them. Smart move Nike. The "Forging Irons" and the "What The" LeBron's will be the only LeBron 11's to sell out instantly
@TheKidDope_ Don't forget The Terracotta Warrior and the Kings Pride were hot sellers too. Those are the only 11's I would have cop if they didn't sell out like hot cakes.
I don't stare at a player's feet, and don't care. I like how the shoes play and feel when used, and how they look. After buying a pair of the 11s I've never once felt like there was any reason for returning them. Him not wearing them means nothing to me.
Forreal man if you like em you like em, NOBODY elses opinion should affect that, not even lebrons
The technology was there but lets a all be honest this was far from LeBron's best model
From the view of a regular person looking for shoes to buy. It definitely plays a huge factor. I, myself, thought that the reason why he wasn't wearing them was because they just weren't comfortable which seemed pretty valid to me. It caused me to question buying them in the first place.
Lebron didn't wear 'em but Manu G. did so I'm gonna buy 'em. (JK) Sneakers don't make you a great basketball player. All you need is LOVE and PASSION for BASKETBALL. Don't matter what brand of sneakers you wear on court. (Nike wanted Lebron to stunt wearing 'em than focus on winning his third mirage championship. XD)
For me, I won't buy anything with Lebron's name on it just because I can't stand the guy. Credit that he is good at basketball, sure, but I personally won't buy it because his name is on it. I like the look of the Lebron11 too, but I just can't bring myself to do it.
On that note, I DO think that his not wearing it affected people. Why should they be expected to wear a shoe with someone's name on it said name won't even wear them. It's like saying "it's not good enough for me, but you can pay me royalties to wear it anyway"
His not wearing the shoes didn't have anything to do with my decision to purchase the shoe. I don't agree with most of the things LBJ does anyways. I like his shoes not his life choices...
Didn't realize it mattered whether or not he wears them. I liked them so that was enough reason for me to get a pair, he can wear whatever he damn well pleases and I'll do the same
@r3dnax3la Same here. I grabbed the 'King's Pride' about a week after they released after drooling over pics in SN and other shoe blogs. I don't hoop in them, but they are one of the most comfortable pair of shoes I've ever put on my feet. They look sick and I don't really care whether LBJ wore them as much because his feet are a mess.
And it's not like he never wore them. Here's a solecollector article pointing out that he wore the 11 or 11 Elite models a total of 35 times over the season:
@baby gerald @r3dnax3la 35 times over an 82 game season and all the way down the road to the Finals and it's his SIGNATURE shoe? He might as well not have worn it at all.
@nick_pappas @baby gerald @r3dnax3la What difference does it make? LeBron's feet are a mess. google pics of them shits.
He didn't wear the XI because his toes are all jacked up. END OF DISCUSSION!!!

Skip to comments.FReeper Canteen ~ Road Trip: Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Arizona ~ 03 JAN 2012
Posted on 01/02/2012 6:10:32 PM PST by laurenmarlowe
Good Evening to The Canteen.
Always enjoy these visits to our military bases.
I was born and raised in Spokane and we had two Air Force bases just west of town... Fairchild Air Force Base and Gieger Field. When I was a pup, we also had an Army Base, Ft Wright. Ft. Wright became a community college campus in later years and Geiger Field became the Spokane Airport (GEG). I think the Air National Guard still utilizes Gieger Field. Fairchild once was home to B-52's but is now a KC-135 base.
With all the Army and Air Force bases, I still joined the US Navy and my twin brother joined the US Marine Corps.
Thanks for the tour.
Welcome to the Canteen, az.b1bbomberfxr...thanks for sharing your aviation experiences.
Thanks, unique, for the hummer.
ms b.....#100!!
Good evening, Sand...((HUGS))...have you "visited" there?
I hope you get the kind that is soft on your poor nose and has lotion.
Oh, yeah! And believe me, the nose needs as soft as possible! Hubby has allergies as well but not nearly as bad so he is only allowed the regular...lol.
Good to see you tonight! :)
Good evening, wjcsux...that's a pretty close attachment, being born there.
Happy New Year! ((HUGS))
Sounds fair to me....LOL! I can't imagine a "cold" all year. Knock on wood...no allergies here.
That's pretty much what it's like. Only good thing about it (if there is such a thing) is I didn't develope them until I was 40 so at least it hasn't been for my entire life.
Hi, Ma and company!
Ahhhhhhhhh... Davis Montham. 'The Boneyard'. Home of countless
obsolete airframes. Visited the base many, many times in the late 80s and throughout the 1990s. To procure (beg, borrow, steal) several C-141 cargo floors worth of conveyor roller panels, wenches and lots of loose Aero-Medical equipment.
The arrangement of Maintenance Stands in this photo reminds me of many an afternoon spent with my arms being soaked with JP-4 Jet Fuel while removing and replacing the engine's Fuel Control. Lots of gas in that plumbing. Even with the Circuit Breakers pulled.
It's nice to see that things never really change.
Jack...good evening/morning...((HUGS))
Sounds like you have had quite the time there. Was your mission just to go to Davis-Monthan and see what you could find? Do you go anywhere you want?
Hope you and your furbabies had a good holiday season. Still hunting?
Welcome to the Canteen, ThunderSleeps....sounds like you have a really good time in the area. Thanks for sharing.
Hi, Ma!
When I was at Andrews, AFB with its 12 Reserve C-141s. Every six months or so, a half dozen of us would visit The Boneyard on TDY status for a week. With a Shopping List of needed parts. Our mission while at Davis Montham was to bring whatever wasn't nailed down.
I have a Midnight Mom Cat and her three variation of Growing Midnight Kittens roaming around the back yard. Also a tan and black striped Tabby. They like to chase and learn as Mom teaches them to kill and nibble on moles.
Haven't seem much of larger intruders.
An interesting way to "shop"....gets the job done.
Glad you have the crew to keep your mole population in check.
Catch ya on the flip side!
G'night! *hugs* around!
I'm working on homework...this week is short again. Holidays are nice, but Monday holidays are tough, work wise.
SO glad to hear that you haven't relapsed and that the doc put you back on antibiotics to help. Be very careful. ((HUGS))
Good morning, Dave....lots of military around you. It is funny about you and your brother going to 2 different services than those right near you.
Hope New Years and your birthday celebrations were fun. All those fireworks displays just for you. LOL!
((HUGS))Good morning, Ladies. Thanks for this morning's thread, Lauren. How's it going?
Thank you for doing your part to help keep all of us free and safe.
Thanks, unique, for the pastries.
Coffee is always on........
How about a donut?
Tuesday Morning Coffee Bump.
Good morning, E...((HUGS))...back to work in the morning.
You and Bo have a great Tuesday.
Good monin', Kathy...((HUGS))...many times. In fact the Annual New Eagle Recognition Dinner is held in the D-M Officers Club.
Hope you enjoy yourself and know the family is excited to get to see you! :)
Good morning, Everyone.

Good morning ladies and (((HUGS))).
Good morning, phormer phrog phlyer
thank you for your service

G' mornin'! (((hugs)))
Saw that it was a bit chilly in the hill country! We are, too....but it'll warm up to the mid-60s this afternoon.
Lots of places much colder than we are this morning!
what was this? >> [the B-1B mod was performed at AMARG!]
The wife didn't put the pup in her pen last night and she decided to jump onto the bed about 6 this morning. I just noticed it was 31 on one of the digitals here this morning.
Yup, the hill country is cooler than most places, but ABIA is almost 10 degrees colder than at our house.
Good morning, EG ((HUGS))
It's going...that's all I can say. Still not motivated to get started on work.
Howz it out your way?
Good morning, CMN ((HUGS))
I'm grumpy! It's too cold!
How are you?
Hope your appointment goes well.
((HUG))Good morning, LUV W. How's it going?
ACK...is it the New Year already?
No more time off for awhile :=(
Warmish out on the left coast, 55 degrees works for me.
Son-boy and I got our fill of football and food and yes, I confess, we played video games too.
Well, school opens up again today, I look forward to seeing all the smiling faces, or not!
That's all for now, have a splendicious day!

I'm a very jealous man, I've been trying to get this boxed set for years now. It's never in stock ANYWHERE. Sure I can get it via Amazon but I've been burned there in the past so skeptical that I wouldn't be getting a burned copy.
I frigging wish I had that damn box set.

Dick Rich's film career extended from 1937 to 1957. Rich spent much of the early '40s as a 20th Century Fox contractee, playing such roles as the fatally impulsive Deputy Mapes in The Ox-Bow Incident. Later in the decade, he showed up in MGM's short-subject product, playing brutish bad guys in everything from the Crime Does Not Pay series to the Our Gang one-reelers. He retained his association with MGM into the 1950s, essaying small roles in such films as Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (1954) and Jailhouse Rock (1957). Even after closing out his film career, Dick Rich remained active on television, making five appearances on the prime-time Western Gunsmoke.

Used this for Crock Pot Italian Beef or Venison 79976 as a substitute for Good Seasons Italian Dressing Mix. I am not sure it would taste close to that as dressing, but it was really good! A great blend that I will use often, as I have a sodium restricted family member. This is full of flavor, a bit different and really good. Thanks.
I have used this with Savory Oven French Fries and as salad dressing, it was a homerun with both! I like that it is a little herby in appearance and I think it tastes better than the store bought dry Italian Dressing mix. I made up a batch as salad dressing and used on a sub, it was great! Thanks for the recipe!
I made this to try to substitute for the packaged mix, because I hate all those chemicals. This seems authentic to the flavor I wanted to duplicate. Next time I will cut back or eliminate the salt, because it is a bit salty (which does make it authentic, but is just too much for my current tastes).

Alchemist Theatre's 'King Lear' reigns as family drama
Early in Friday's opening-night performance of Alchemist Theatre's "King Lear," Bo Johnson's aged king called for the map demonstrating his intended division of Britain among his three daughters. Lear's attendants dutifully unfurled it — with the bottom at the top and the top at the bottom. When they tried to hang the map up, it kept falling down.
Director Leda Hoffmann confirmed during intermission that this sequence wasn't planned. But such a topsy-turvy world aptly illustrates the disorder that descends on Britain once the hot-tempered Lear banishes his beloved Cordelia, counting on his remaining two daughters to keep him and Britain safe. »Read Full Article

Carter Wall
Executive Director, Renewable Energy Division, Massachusetts Clean Energy Center
Two exciting renewable energy projects are currently under construction at dairy farms in Massachusetts. When completed this spring, they will be the first ever in the state to produce electricity from cow manure!
AGreen Energy: Five dairy farms from across Massachusetts have joined together for a project at the Jordan family dairy farm in Rutland that will produce methane gas using "anaerobic digestion" – a non-combustion process by which natural microorganisms break down organic material like cow manure into liquid fertilizer, fibrous solid material (which will be used as animal bedding), and methane gas. This is a great way to manage the manure generated on dairy farms in an environmentally friendly way. The methane gas will be fed into a generator that will produce heat for the farm and 300 kW of electricity – enough to power more than 130 homes every year. It will also provide welcome financial support to five family dairy farms. MassCEC helped this project with $360,000 toward feasibility studies, design, and construction costs, and the Massachusetts Department of Agricultural Resources contributed over $100,000 toward other project costs. Rutland's Select Board voted unanimously to license the project.
"Rutland has always been fiercely proud of its farms, and has been a Right To Farm Community for several years now. The digester project at Jordan's is just fantastic," said Sheila Dibb, Chair of Rutland's Select Board. "It brilliantly shows how local, family-owned farms can embrace diversification projects that are both good for the environment and financially beneficial to the farm. We wish them all the best, and are eagerly looking forward to the 'grand opening'!"
Pine Island Farm: Pine Island Farm, a 710-cow farm in Sheffield, will be home to a 178 kW generator using a similar process to the one at Jordan Dairy. MassCEC provided over $500,000 toward the cost of this project.
David Cash, Assistant Secretary for Policy at the Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs, says anaerobic digestion is a win-win-win-win.
"Not only does this technology help the bottom line for farmers, keep cow manure from running off into streams and trap harmful methane gases produced by the natural breakdown of organic waste," he said, "but these projects will also produce clean, renewable energy to offset emissions from power plants. We hope to see more of these projects developed in the Commonwealth."
The photos are of the digester under construction at Jordan Dairy Farm in December, 2010.

Reviews for Catty Shack Ranch Wildlife Sanctuary Inc
2 people found this review helpful
I am a healthcare professional and have been working (volunteering) with the Cattyshack Ranch Wildlife Sanctuary for about 11 years. I have worked with major zoos and other exotic animal groups but now concentrate my time primarily with Cattyshack. I chose this organization because of my personal knowledge of the Executive Directors dedication to the cause and my observation of the excellent care they give their animals. The cats are well fed, treated with nothing but love and respect, and it shows. Don't just take my word for it. Trip Advisor Jacksonville (5 star) has over 250 recent reviews from people who have actually visited there. Most of the reviews are 5 star and comment on the knowledge and dedication of the staff, how clean the facility is and how well cared for, healthy and happy the Cats appear. Recently, when unfortunate circumstances forced the closure of a private zoo in Wisconsin, the owner wanting the best for his animals, visited and interviewed several sanctuaries. He chose Cattyshack to place his 6 tiger cubs because he liked what he saw.
Like most nonprofit rescues Cattyshack relies solely on donations and volunteers. In that, they are enjoying widespread community support and a great group of dedicated, knowledgeable, hard working volunteers. I enjoy every minute and consider it a priviledge to be associated with the Cattyshack Ranch.
More Feedback
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
Get a larger facility. While it is 10 acres, an increase in the number of animals coupled with a desire to give each animal as large an enclosure as possible, they are running out of physical space.
How does this organization compare with others in the same sector?
Very Well
How much of an impact do you think this organization has?
Will you recommend this organization to others?
When was your last experience with this nonprofit?
I've followed this compound for years. Check out their Fish and Wildlife inspection reports, and USDA reports. Some time ago, he was ordered to start feeding his starving animals or risk confiscation. Since a leopard never changes its spots, I'm sure the animals are still receiving the same, substandard care. I wouldn't give a penny to this group.

From Comcast SportsNetNEW YORK (AP) -- First flying bugs, now a flying bat.When it comes to the postseason, Joba Chamberlain is jinxed.The Yankees hope their season isn't, too.Chamberlain was knocked out of Game 4 of the AL division series on Thursday night when the barrel of Matt Wieters' broken bat hit him on the right elbow in the 12th inning. The Baltimore Orioles went on to a 2-1 victory that forced a decisive Game 5 on Friday night, getting the go-ahead run when Manny Machado doubled against David Phelps leading off the 13th and scored on J.J. Hardy's RBI double."I don't know if I'd hang out with me very much. I might need a bubble," Chamberlain said.He might not be the only one.On another Bronx night filled with controversy, Alex Rodriguez was pinch hit for once again. Eric Chavez batted in place of slumping A-Rod and ended the game with a lineout to third off Jim Johnson."I just do what I'm told," Chavez said. "It's kind of crazy."Now it's up to CC Sabathia to show he's an ace, taking the mound Friday night against Jason Hammel in a rematch of Game 1 starters."It's time to go," Sabathia said. "This is a one-game playoff, and this is what we play for. We're here in the Bronx at home, and like I said, I'll be excited and ready to go."New York outlasted Baltimore for the AL East title last week. Now the Yankees will try to do it again and advance to the AL championship series against Detroit."It's the same game whether it's the first game of the season or the postseason," said Derek Jeter, who shifted to designated hitter because of a sore left foot. "We're going to try to have fun with it, enjoy it."New York had runners on base in each of the first eight innings, but the Yankees went 0 for 9 with runners in scoring position and dropped to 6 for 28 (.214) in the series.A-Rod, 2 for 16 (.125) with no RBIs and nine strikeouts, fanned against side-arming right-hander Darren O'Day with runners on second and third and one out in the eighth. Nick Swisher then flied out."It's obviously frustrating," Rodriguez said. "That was a situation that I could do some damage, and just couldn't get it done tonight."He's not the only slumping star. Curtis Granderson is 1 for 16 (.125) with nine Ks. Robinson Cano is 2 for 18 (.111) and hitless in his last 11 at-bats. Russell Martin is batting .214, Ichiro Suzuki .200 and Swisher .133."There's really good pitching," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "There's guys on the other side that are struggling, too. You're seeing some really good pitching in these four games."Girardi won't know until Friday whether his bullpen will include Chamberlain, who has had enough mound misfortunes to fill a horror film.He was just another normal hard-throwing young gun before Game 2 of the 2007 division series. Then midges swarmed him on the mound in Cleveland and, with those bugs all around, he threw a tying wild pitch in a game the Indians went on to win 2-1 in 11 innings for a 2-0 series lead.A torn elbow ligament sidelined him in June 2011, and he was close to his return during spring training when he dislocated his right ankle in a trampoline accident while playing with his son. He finally returned on Aug. 1 -- against the Orioles -- and developed back into a dependable part of the Yankees' bullpen.Wieters led off the 12th with a single to left field, and a large piece of his bat went twirling toward the mound and hit Chamberlain's surgically repaired pitching elbow. Chamberlain threw down his glove and bent over in pain.After he was checked out by trainer Steve Donahue, Chamberlain threw three test pitches and came out. The Yankees said his elbow was bruised and X-rays were negative."You kind of see how it feels tomorrow and go from there," Chamberlain said. "It's definitely not as stiff as it was when it first happened."After Hardy's double -- his first RBI of the series, Johnson pitched a 1-2-3 bottom half. No Yankees' comeback this time, not like in Game 3 when Raul Ibanez batted for A-Rod and hit a tying homer in the ninth and a winning home run in the 12th of a 3-2 win."We'll come out ready and go out there and we'll fight and try to make it happen," Ibanez said.This matchup could hardly be more even. New York and Baltimore have split 22 games this season, with the Yankees outscoring the Orioles 103-101. Over the two extra-inning games, the Orioles' threw 331 pitches to the Yankees' 327."The baseball gods let you up off the deck if you stay true to the game," Baltimore manager Buck Showalter said. "We've got a big challenge ahead of us tomorrow, but we have an opportunity."Hours earlier, Girardi wiped his eyes during a pregame moment of silence for his father, who died last weekend. Girardi didn't tell his players until the death became public Thursday, not wanting to distract them from the task at hand.Nate McLouth's fifth-inning home run was offset by Cano's RBI grounder in the sixth, and McLouth saved a run in the fifth with a leaping catch against the wall in left-center on Jayson Nix's drive with a man on.It stayed that way in a battle of the bullpens. Baltimore's allowed four hits in 7 1-3 scoreless innings, and the Yankees gave up a run and four hits over 6 1-3.New York wasted a fine outing by Phil Hughes, who allowed one run and four hits in 6 1-3 innings with eight strikeouts and three walks -- all leading off innings.New York had hoped to avoid this. The Yankees wanted to end this series in four games, allowing Sabathia to start the AL championship series opener Saturday night.Sabathia held off the Orioles in winning the opener 7-2, allowing two runs and eight hits in 8 2-3 innings. The Yankees need him to do it again just to advance to the ALCS for the first time since 2010. And if they do get there, Sabathia likely wouldn't start against until Game 4 on the road.Like everything with this year's Yankees, nothing comes easily."This is going to be awesome," said Swisher, who could be playing his final game in pinstripes. "It's almost inevitable there's going to be a Game 5. We're not stressing. We know what we have to do. This place is going to be rocking and rolling."
Ortiz to play rest of regular season for Sox with guaranteed rest before playoffs
Ortiz to play rest of regular season for Sox with guaranteed rest before playoffs
NEW YORK -- Now that the division title has been wrapped up, the Red Sox turn their attention to getting ready for the post-season -- but not at the expense of trying to win as many games as possible.
Part of the planning for the Sox involves how much to play David Ortiz, who is retiring when the Red Sox are through in the post-season.
On Thursday night, his final road game and last appearance at Yankee Stadium, the Sox planned to have Ortiz get at least two at-bats in recognition of the fans in New York who wanted to see him one more time.
As for the last series at Fenway, it will be business as usual with Ortiz playing all three.
"We don't foresee any pullback in terms of his number of at-bats," said Farrell of the weekend series with Toronto. "It's a weekend of celebration well-deserved and we'll have time to recover."
Farrell noted that under the current playoff format, teams which win their division get three full days off after the final regular season games. That helps in preparation.
"The importance of winning and maintaining our daily approach is priority No. 1," said Farrell. "How that might affect how deep a starter goes in the upcoming games might be looked at a little more closely. Still, we feel it's imperative to secure as much home field as we can."
On Thursday night, Mookie Betts, Dustin Pedroia, Hanley Ramirez and Sandy Leon were all given the night off. Others will get the same opportunity over the weekend.
