NK parents to their grads: congratulations
To the North Kitsap High School Class of 2009:
On the eve of your commencement we wanted to take time to reflect on your accomplishments, your growth as individuals and classmates and your futures. As your parents, siblings, friends, teachers and neighbors we have watched you grow as students — and as people — through the 12 years of your education, and we have been touched by your many kindnesses, your ease and comfort in yourselves and by your collectively strong and unique voice in our community.
It seems to us, that as a group, perhaps your lives have been somewhat "charmed." Yes, most of you have lived through one school remodel after another. But as a result you have learned adaptability and flexibility, and maybe even patience. Many of you have a calm and gentle demeanor, an easy nature that allows you to find contentment and happiness even during the typically trying and dramatic moments of young adulthood. Many of us have witnessed the Class of 2009 to be "happy-go-lucky," "comfortable in their skins," "focused on the future," and "devoted to the betterment of our world." Perhaps it is because so many of you are our "babies" – second or third siblings. In fact, for lots of us, many of you are the baby. Perhaps your parents transferred less stress to you in your upbringing because they were more comfortable in their roles as parents. Perhaps you benefitted from observing the difficulties of your siblings before you. Perhaps you simply are a uniquely wonderful group of young people that we have been blessed to know and have in our lives. Whatever the cause, our interactions with you have been alarmingly even-keeled, frequently humorous and oftentimes simply wonderful – and you're teenagers!
What role will these characteristics play in your future? Of course, it's always difficult to predict, but based on past experience, it would seem that your troubles will be few, obstacles will be surmounted, and your good will and good humor will be frequently employed to create calm and engender contentment in those who surround you. This is certainly our wish for each of you.
Those of us who have had the luxury of you in our daily lives for the past 18 years will be forced to look outside to see the sunshine, and perhaps watch bad television for that special laugh-out-loud humor you have frequently provided. But we know this is the way of things. And while we will miss your daily contributions to our amusement and amazement, we know the time has come to share the joy that is each of you with the world at large.
This group of graduating seniors has big plans. Many of you will be heading to universities all over the state of Washington, and some will even go outside of the state. We are proud and excited to send our honor students, athletes, thespians, scientists, writers, nurses, engineers, doctors and future leaders into the world and proudly proclaim "These are our best and brightest! They have given us great joy, tremendous pride and even more – they have given us great hope for the future. We entrust them into your care and wait anxiously for their return."
Still others will move on to life experiences, including serving our country. To those who serve to protect us all, we say, "Thank you and God bless and protect you and all you hold dear."
Others will join the work force, start families or simply travel to see more of this world. We hope you will find joy in your personal relationships, fulfillment in your professional endeavors, and a cause worthy to keep you engaged in your world.
Seniors, we wish you a rich and wonderful journey, full of adventure, great learning opportunities, loving friendships and tremendous success. We believe in your abilities, your drive to succeed, your commitment to each other and our world, and we believe most sincerely in the goodness of your hearts. We love you and look forward to seeing great things from each of you! It is with tremendous pride that we sign this letter,
Your parents, families, friends and loved ones.
CONGRATULATIONS on the occasion of your commencement, North Kitsap High School Class of 2009!

Council worker killed in collision 'a gentleman'
Published 11/01/2013 | 05:00
THE family of a council worker who died after being struck by a car during roadworks have described him as a "complete gentleman" who always "had a smile on his face".
Kevin O'Sullivan (59), who had been working for Kildare County Council for 22 years, died in Naas General Hospital on Wednesday.
Mr O'Sullivan, originally from Dodsboro in Lucan but living in Celbridge, Co Kildare, was on point duty directing traffic on the Maynooth/Rathcoffey Road when he was struck by a car around 3pm.
His niece, Sharon O'Sullivan, on behalf of the family, paid tribute to him as a "much-loved father and brother".
He is mourned by Liz, his daughter Lorna who he "absolutely idolised", and a wide circle of relations and friends.
"He was one of 10 kids – six brothers and three sisters and they were all very close," his niece said.

Ridley Scott explains the 'Prometheus'-'Alien' link and updates 'Blade Runner' sequel, 'Monopoly' and more
Is it a prequel or not, darnit? Don't expect a straight answer
LONDON - A similar ambiguity will be repeated over and over and over again in pre-release promotion for "Prometheus," but the question of how directly Ridley Scott's new film should be viewed as a prequel to "Alien" keeps needing to be asked.
Scott has been talking circles around the "prequel" issue for many months and he did so again with a group of reporters gathered for the "Prometheus" junket at Claridge's in London.
"For all intents and purposes this is very loosely a prequel, very," Scott maintains.
Speculation that "Prometheus" relates to oft-asked questions about the "Space Jockey" corpse introduced in "Alien" has raged since before production even began and Scott admits that's the question that drew him to return to this world.
"The very simple question was 'Who the hell was in that ship? Who is sitting in that seat?' and 'Why that cargo?' and 'Where was he going?' No one asked the question, so I thought 'Duh.' It's a 'duh,' isn't it?" Scott says.
But saying whether or not that question gets answered in "Prometheus" isn't simple. It isn't simple for people who have seen the film and it isn't simple for Scott.
He continues, "They're all bright guys... Jim [Cameron] and David [Fincher' and the French guy ["Alien: Resurrection" director Jean-Pierre Jeunet], and I thought 'Wow, duh.' And I just kind of sat and thought about it for a while and I was busy, so I didn't really do anything about it and then when they finally put it to bed in 'Alien vs. Predator' I thought 'You know what? This is a good idea here.' The more I talked about it, I thought 'God damn..." I was going to call it 'Alien - Paradise' because I thought that had a spooky connotation to the idea, because it concocts our notion and idea of paradise and 'What is that?' And paradise to us suggests religion and religion says 'God' and then God, who created us, and that's certainly… you've got a scientist who believes in God and there's lots of scientists who believe flatly in God and even though they may be in quantum physics, they say 'I get to a wall and sometimes wonder 'Who the hell thought of this one?' and I can't get through the wall. When I get through the wall more is revealed and I still see another wall, so who is making this shit up?'"
That's a completed answer to a question of how "Prometheus" evolved from a straight-forward "Alien" prequel to the very different thing that it became. It's also an insight into Scott's intellectual process, a series of lateral leaps that find him beginning our roundtable interview by explaining why we don't have "Star Trek"-style matter transporters yet and goes on to include explanations of germ theory, his feelings on artificial intelligence, the origins of the Gulf of Mexico and more.
Some directors or storytellers may think project-to-project, but Scott is going many directions at the same time. One of those directions certainly could include a potential "Prometheus" sequel ["I've opened the doors. I know where it's going."], but he's also been attached to projects including "Monopoly," a "Blade Runner" sequel, an adaptation of "Brave New Work" and the long-gestating "Tripoli."
"I'm on all of them," Scott laughs proudly.
He continues, "They are all happening now. 'Monopoly's' first pass is written. 'Blade Runner' is in process now with Hampton Fancher. I don't know what to do with 'Brave New World.' It's tough. I think 'Brave New World' in a funny kind of way was good in 1938, because it had a very interesting revolutionary idea... When you re-analyze it, maybe it should stay as a book. I don't know."
So the scoreboard:
"Monopoly" - Check!
"Blade Runner" Sequel - Check!
"Brave New World" - Uncheck! But Ridley Scott's been known to revisit things long after the fact. Like "Alien."
And all of those projects may take a backseat, because... Ridley Scott has a Western!
"I want to do a Western really badly and I think I've got a Western this morning, finally after two and a half years of talking and writing and talking and… I think I have it, which is kind of interesting," he says.
"Tripoli," the film that Scott has been attached to for longest, is currently the one that sounds least likely to occur, but he ends the interview by giving a full synopsis that indicates his passion remains intact. So who knows?
"Prometheus" opens on June 8 at theaters everywhere (unless you're in European territories where it's opening sooner than that).

Doctor insights on:
Facial Hair Problems
Helloo! I have thick coarse facial hair problem + acne ? Suggest me some tips and advice.. Thank yoi
Get workup: Being a young woman is difficult enough with a man's beard & acne! you deserve nothing less than a workup for possible masculinizing tumor or ovarian syndrome causing this. Don't settle for just treating symptoms, though electrolysis & acne rx may help. ...Read more
What do you suggest if I have a problem with facial hair:(?
Manage it: If you're a female, manage any underlying hormonal problem in conjunction with your gynecologist or primary caregiver, and get the facial hair removed. The large majority of people will urge you to do this. Laser and electrolysis are both great and won't cost much. ...Read more
What is wrong when a female has problem with facial hair and is it treatable and how ?
Hirsutism of PCOS: Excess facial hair (hirsutism) in female is often caused by androgen (male-hormone) excess, commonly from polycystic-ovarian-syndrome (pcos). Adequate treatment of pcos, which is difficult, often improves facial hair, but takes time. Some med such as spironolactone can help, but again takes many months. Laser or electrolysis are probably most effective and fastest. Consult doc for eval. Good luck. ...Read moreSee 2 more doctor answers
Hi i'm 18 and i barely've some facial hair.I'm having a dns problem so is it due to dns i' m NT having beard bcx everyone in my family has thick beard?
Facial Hair: Men who have low testosterone levels will have low facial hair growth and might need hormonal supplements. Check with your doctor to see if a testosterone test might be in order. ...Read more
I'm 18 and still i don't have any facial hair growth. And I have not yet tried any medicine or other ways to grow.. So please help my problem?
Maybe it's you!: Around 5% of men never do get a decent beard or much chest hair. Nowadays, many (most?) women claim they prefer this, and such guys don't go bald. Joel Kinneman (photo) isn't complaining, and neither did Paul Newman, the first Hollywood star to show off a truly fit body. Be grateful for whatever Nature gave you, and make lifelong fitness a habit -- you'll look fantastic even with no beard. ...Read moreSee 1 more doctor answer
I look very very younger to my age. I feel the problem is with my facial hair and facial features. How can I grow them ??have a look at my pic, I'm 26
Be patient: facial hair is largely driven by genetics, so there is no great way to enhance its growth. Frequent shaving may increase the thickness. At 26, you are at the age where your physical maturity is likely peaked, but you have not yet started showing any signs of aging. As you get older, you are more likely to appreciate your youthful appearance. ...Read more
My problem is regarding my facial hair. I am 19 years old male and I am struggling with my thin facial hair , is there any supplement for faster growt?
Your genes: How thick or thin a beard you can grow is entirely genetic. I am going to assume that you are normally masculinized with normal erections and ejaculations. It has nothing to do with your virility. Many women in the usa and europe prefer a man with a thin beard; if your culture expects you to grow a thick one, you have my sympathy. Teen idol justin bieber (photo) can't grow a beard either. ...Read moreSee 1 more doctor answer
Does shaving the facial hair with a blade make it thick or no problem in using the blade on face and hands?
Shaving: will not increase thickness of hair that regrows. ...Read moreSee 1 more doctor answer
i am a 19 year old male. I'm 181cm tall and weighs 75kg. My problem is that I have little facial hair, it started growing at the age of 16 or 17.
No simple answer: This is not unusual and may represent a slight delay in onset of puberty. However your pediatrician will likely review your growth curve and may obtain some basic lab studies and x-rays to assess your hormonal status and growth. ...Read more
I am 20, i feel like I have low sex drive and erection problems.I never had any before an year.My facial hair grow at a slow rate.Can it be infertility?
Possibly hormonal: Unusual at age 20. Could be a hormonal issue (e.g., low testosterone) or many other things. See your doctor, have an open and honest discussion, and get a good medical workup. You may need to follow up with an endocrinologist, but a discussion with your primary care doctor would be a good starting point. ...Read more

Below are key drivers of Exxon's value that present opportunities for upside or downside to the current Trefis price estimate for Exxon Mobil:
For additional details, select a driver above or select a division from the interactive Trefis split for Exxon Mobil at the top of the page.
Exxon Mobil Corporation (XOM) is the largest of the vertically integrated oil majors, as well as the largest publicly-traded corporation in the world by revenue. It was created on November 30, 1999, by the merger of Exxon and Mobil. The company has several divisions and hundreds of affiliates, including Exxon Mobil, Exxon, Esso, and Mobil.
The firm generates the majority of its income from liquid and natural gas sales, with earnings of $32.5 billion in 2014. The geographical diversity of Exxon Mobil's exploration and production (E&P) activities make it less vulnerable to the regional production uncertainties that plague the industry. The company is also an international leader in the downstream refining industry with over 5,000 owned/leased retail stations and over 5.2 million barrels per day of refining capacity at the end of 2014.
Crude Oil and Natural Gas Liquids (NGL) production is the most valuable division for the firm for the following reasons:
Proved reserves is an extremely critical metric for an oil
and gas exploration and production company. It represents the total quantity of technically and economically recoverable oil and gas reserves owned by the company at a given point in time. It directly impacts the company's production growth outlook. At the end of 2014, Exxon Mobil's total proved reserves stood at over 25.2 billion oil-equivalent barrels (both developed and undeveloped). This equates to more than 17.4 years of reserve life at last year's average production rate. These reserves are evenly distributed between liquids and natural gas, and represent a diverse and global portfolio.
Exxon Mobil is the world's largest public integrated oil and gas company by market capitalization. According to our estimates, on an average, the company generates around 30-35% of its total free cash flows from downstream refining and chemicals operations. These relatively stable streams of cash flows partially insulates the company from the volatility in global crude oil prices. Because of its integrated business model, the company is able to fund its long-term, capital-intensive upstream projects even during commodity down cycles.
While Exxon's total hydrocarbon production has remained relatively flat over the last decade, its capital expenditures have soared from around $17.62 billion in 2005 to over $38.50 billion in 2014. This is a clear indication of how difficult the oil drilling business has become over the years. This has been primarily due to the increasing complexity of upstream projects. Various oil companies have embarked on different projects to extract oil such as deepwater, gas to liquids (GTL), oil sands, etc. This has led to longer development timelines which have, in turn, resulted in higher costs. However, the sustained low crude-oil price environment has led to Exxon re-evaluating its capital expenditure strategy. The company plans to reduce capex to around $34 billion in 2015 and below $34 billion in 2016 & 2017.
It is estimated that a large part of the world's oil reserves have already been discovered. Recent statistics have indicated that global consumption has been outpacing reserve additions. Peak oil is a commonly used term to describe the point at which world oil output will reach a maximum and decline afterward.
However, many institutions such as the International Energy Agency (IEA) believe that peak oil will not occur for another 25 years at the very least. Many governments across the world are promoting alternative energy measures to ensure that the supply and demand of energy will be met at all times to come.
Due to limited underlying growth in product demand, there has been an increase in recent years towards increasing the complexity of refineries rather than expanding capacity. In the U.S., no new refineries have been built since 1980, however, improvements in process design and technology have seen capacity increase around 1% per year.
The early refineries that were established were mainly used to process light sweet crude resulting in an increase in demand for light sweet crudes. As a result of higher oil prices in recent times, heavy crude oil is becoming more economically attractive. In addition, the interest in the development of new cost effective methods for extracting and transporting heavy crude oil for refining into valuable light and middle distillate fuels is also increasing.
The average liquid sales price refers to the price realized for crude oil and natural gas liquids (NGL) by subsidiaries of Exxon Mobil's upstream division. It is effectively the weighted average of the price the company receives on its crude oil and NGL sales across the world. This is dependent on global crude oil prices and the company's proportion of sales in different countries.
Oil prices in global markets are generally influenced by:
Exxon's average liquid sales price increased from $48.23 per barrel in 2005 to $91 in 2008, before declining to $57.90 in 2009 as the world faced one of the worse economic downturns in recent decades. The global economy recovered in 2010, pushing prices to $74 for the year. Oil prices rose sharply in 2011 to $101 mainly because of a shut down of Libyan production and unrest in other OPEC (Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries) countries. Prices remained around the $100 level in 2012 and 2013 as well.
However, recently, global benchmark crude oil prices have declined sharply on slower demand growth and rising supplies. According to the International Energy Agency's (IEA) estimates, the growth in global oil demand hit a 5-year low in 2014. This coincided with record growth in crude oil supply from non-OPEC countries, primarily the U.S., at 1.9 million barrels per day. As a result, the price of the front-month Brent crude oil futures contract on the ICE declined by more than 48% in the second half of 2014 and is currently trading around $60/barrel. Exxon's ${forecast} declined to $87.40 per barrel in 2014.
We now believe that the recent decline in oil prices could sustain for a longer period amid slower demand growth and the diminishing price-controlling power of the OPEC. According to our estimates, Exxon's Average Crude Oil and NGL Sales Price figure could bottom out at around $46 per barrel this year, and gradually start climbing back in subsequent years.

Brief Summary
Species Abstract
The Signal Crayfish is an aggressive species indigenous to the northwest USA, but which has been introduced into much of Europe and parts of Asia to the detriment of extensive aquatic ecosystems in those regimes.
P. leniusculus has a native range from British Columbia to central California and eastward to the Rocky Mountains. The introduced range includes Britain, much of western Europe including Sweden, most of eastern Europe, part of western Russia and some of the Japanese islands. The introduction of Signal Crayfish to these vast areas was motivated by commercial interests in creating a robust industry for harvesting this species; however, the outcome has produced an ecological nightmare by driving extinct a number of native crayfishes and producing ecological imbalance from this voracious competitor.
Length of males measures to 16 cm from end of telson to rostrum tip, with females about three quarters of this size. Body mass varies between 55 and 115 grams. Exterior color varies between brownish blue, reddish brown, and less commonly a plain brown. There are smooth rostrum flanks; the acumen is very quite sharply pointed and manifests significant shoulders. A median carina runs entire length. Claws are massive and smooth, the underside being red; with a lone inner tubercle (relative to the fixed finger).A distinctive white patch decorates the top of the join of fixed and movable fingers.
P. leniusculus exploits a gamut of habitats including streams, major rivers and sub-alpine lakes; (Lewis) it is able to adapt to warmer waters, pH above six and even slightly saline water bodies. This aggressive species can colonize streams at the rate of one kilometer per annum. (Stanton) Burrows can occur at very high organism densities, up to 14 per square meter; moreover, this dense clustering of burrows can compromise streambank integrity, in some cases causing severe bank collapse and subsequent erosion. This phenomenon has been particularly observed in Europe, where there are differing bank forms sometimes lacking in the natural burrow crevices of the species native range; therefore, in Europe, much more extensive burrowing has been noted compared to use of streambed armor in the Western USA. (Sibley) Colonization of new area is facilitated by P. leniusculus' ability to creep overland and around terrestrial barriers.
Although polytrophic in diet, faunal intake is preferred by this crayfish, which has caused major attrition to certain macro-invertebrates, benthic fish and aquatic vegetation. (Nyström) For example, P.leniusculus has been shown to decimate Atlantic salmon populations.. Pacifastacus nigrescens, endemic to the western USA, went extinct partially due to interspecific competition with the Signal Crayfish, which humans introduced into its range. Signal Crayfish has caused a contraction in the range of the western USA narrowly endemic P. fortis. (Taylor).
There is no concern regarding the viability of this species; rather, there are significant issues regarding Signal Crayfish as an invasive species, threatening the existence of numerous other taxa. Introduced into Japan as early as 1926, this crayfish has been cultivated in Asia and Europe for its substantial catches, exceeding 400 tons per year in Europe. There are literally no management techniques known for the successful management of P. leniusculus. Trapping is size selective, with the result that smaller individuals elude Preventing the further introduction of Signal Crayfish into new bodies of water is the most important single element of future decision-making regarding this species. Public awareness of the ecological risks this species pose and identifying new populations are key components to arrest the spread of this species. Current research is examining the use of pheromones to attract male P. leniusculus into traps. Tough legislation has been invoked to P. leniusculus in Britain, which labels it a pest and bans the keeping of it in Scotland, Wales and much of England. Nevertheless, P. leniusculus colonizes new waters and threatens the extinction of the indigenous UK crayfish population (Hiley).
Range Description

Global Range: (>2,500,000 square km (greater than 1,000,000 square miles)) Ranges from British Columbia to California; introduced into Europe and Japan (Hobbs, 1989). Pacifastacus leniculus has been introduced into many countries throughout Europe and California, Nevada and Utah in the USA. This species was introduced during the 1970s and 1980s, is widely cultivated and is established in the wild, from where it is harvested (Harlioglu and Holdich, 2001). Pacifastacus leniusculus leniusculus is distributed throughout British Columbia, California, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. Pacifastacus leniusculus klamathensis is distributed throughout British Columbia in Canada, Idaho and south to central California in the USA. Pacifastacus leniusculus trowbridgii is distributed throughout British Columbia in Canada and California, Idaho, Oregon and Washington in the USA, and has been introduced into California and Nevada in the USA, and also introduced into Japan.
Habitat and Ecology
Tolerance experiments indicated that O+ juveniles and adults are well adapted for surviving salinities of at least 21 in the long term and of being transferred directly back into freshwater. However, their ability to colonize the estuarine environment may be restricted to areas of low salinity (i.e. 7) due to the adverse effects of seawater on egg development and hatching (Holdich et al. 1997).
- Freshwater
- Marine
Comments: Generally prefers cool water with current over rocky bottom; does not burrow; is highly adaptable and can be found in a wide variety of habitats including coastal and mountain streams and lakes, reservoirs, and the saline waters in river deltas (Hogger, 1988).
Non-Migrant: No. All populations of this species make significant seasonal migrations.
Locally Migrant: No. No populations of this species make local extended movements (generally less than 200 km) at particular times of the year (e.g., to breeding or wintering grounds, to hibernation sites).
Locally Migrant: No. No populations of this species make annual migrations of over 200 km.

Signal crayfish
The signal crayfish, Pacifastacus leniusculus, is a North American species of crayfish. It was introduced to Europe in the 1960s to supplement the Scandinavian Astacus astacus fisheries, which were being damaged by crayfish plague, but the imports turned out to be a carrier of that disease. The signal crayfish is now considered an invasive species across Europe and Japan, ousting native species there.
Description and ecology[edit]
Members of this species are typically 6–9 centimetres (2.4–3.5 in) long, although sizes up to 16–18 cm (6.3–7.1 in) are possible.[2] They are bluish-brown to reddish-brown in colour with robust, large, smooth claws. They have a white to pale blue-green patch near the claw hinge,[3] like the white flags that signalmen used for directing trains—hence the name.
The life cycle of the signal crayfish is typical for the family Astacidae. Around 200–400 eggs are laid after mating in the autumn, and are carried under the female's tail until they are ready to hatch the following spring.[2] The eggs hatch into juveniles, which pass through three moults before leaving their mother. Sexual maturity is reached after two to three years, and the life span can be up to 20 years.[2]
The signal crayfish is an omnivore, with most of its dietary intake being detritus.[4]
Native range[edit]
The signal crayfish is native to North America west of the Rocky Mountains, including the Canadian province of British Columbia, and the U.S. states of Washington, Oregon, and Idaho.[5] It was introduced to California in 1912 into the San Lorenzo River watershed and from there rapidly spread throughout the state.[6] The only native crayfish remaining in California is the Shasta crayfish (Pacifastacus fortis), where efforts are being made to create a barrier to Signal crayfish invasion.[7] Within North America, it has also been introduced to Nevada, and the populations in Utah may be the results of introductions.[5] It is listed as a species of Least Concern on the IUCN Red List.[8]
Introduction into Europe[edit]
From 1907, crayfish plague, an infectious disease caused by the water mould Aphanomyces astaci, damaged stocks of the native European crayfish Astacus astacus. Since the signal crayfish occupied a similar ecological niche in its native range, it was imported in the 1960s to Sweden and Finland to allow recreational and commercial crayfish capture.[2] It was not realised at the time that the signal crayfish was a carrier of the crayfish plague.[2] All American species carry the infection, but it is only lethal to individuals that are already stressed; to European species, the infection is rapidly fatal.[9]
The signal crayfish is now the most widespread alien crayfish in Europe, occurring in 25 countries, from Finland to Great Britain and from Spain to Greece.[2] It was first introduced to Great Britain in 1976, and is now widespread across the British mainland as far north as the Moray Firth. It has also been observed on the Isle of Man, but not in Ireland.[9]

Wow, does anyone else have these times when things are NUTS? Not always in a good way but for example this week we have something constantly going on, anniversary last night, PTA meeting (I'm secretary) tonight, tomorrow I have to work late, Thursday I have a professional development meeting, Friday meet a friend for dinner, Saturday going to a Crosby Stills and Nash concert and staying overnight, Sunday friends party... just seems like its ongoing.
Plus I have a case going to trial in a month so work is getting more and more hectic to where I have to work weekends,etc. I look at my calender and it seems like that is true for the rest of this year!
I just need some peace and quiet for a bit!
What is everyone else up to???

Author: David A. Poulsen
Publisher: Dundurn, Toronto
ISBN: 978-1-4597-3248-3 (pbk.).—ISBN 978-1-4597-3255-1 (pdf).--ISBN 978-1-4597-3256-8 (epub)
We're told that one of the missions of art is to hold up a mirror to the audience, be it reader, viewer, or listener. If you don't recognize yourself in David Poulsen's delightful and incisive account of Andy "Alamo" Crockett's senior high school years spent at Parkerville Comprehensive, you should check yourself out for vampirism.
The school is not the only thing that's "comprehensive." With lean and telling prose, we are treated to a full portrait of Andy, his close and distant classmates, his girl friends, his family, and, perhaps most critically, his relationship with his favorite school teacher.
But what does Andy do? Where's the conflict and the intensity? At first there's a rather low-voltage story about Andy's flat tire(s). Although even this somewhat tiresome tale is spiced up a bit before it ends, the reader hopes that that is not all there is.
And indeed, it is not. From that point on, the story moves to Andy's relationship with his charismatic, anti-Semitic "dream" teacher. This is the spine that gives "Numbers" its gravitas. Its resolution is enormously satisfying, and its final line is as shocking as it is inspiring.
David Poulsen is a wonderful writer. His sense of the comic potential of both understatement and hyperbole pleases on almost every page. His metaphors and similes are fresh and refreshing. The book's relatively few editing indiscretions are readily overlooked.
Both as a nostalgic reminder of one's high school years and an inspiration to think thoroughly, independently, and compassionately, Numbers should be very close to number one on your reading list.
2015 was memorable on several levels. First there was the months spent as a juror for the Governor General's Children's Book Award. Reading and assessing 148 books in 155 days was, quite frankly, one of the most difficult tasks I've ever undertaken. At the same time, however, it was tremendously rewarding. Having the opportunity to encounter so many amazing books by an equally amazing group of Canadian Writers of Children's books made me realize how fortunate we are in Canada to be surrounded by such gifted and dedicated literary artists. My fellow jurors, Jan Coates and Rachna Gilmore and I met in Ottawa and worked long and hard before finally coming to a decision. And congratulations to Caroline Pignat who was the recipient of the GG for her wonderful, The Gospel Truth.
As the year wore on, I was delighted to see my teen novel Numbers return to print. After the novel won the Sakura Medal (Reader's Choice Award) in Japan, it disappeared when Key Porter Books closed its doors. So, needless to say, I'm so glad that Numbers has not only returned but did so with a vengeance, as a large order from Barnes and Noble, the largest bookstore chain in the US, meant that a second printing had to be ordered before the first one was even in the warehouse.
The latter months of 2015 and the first few in 2016 have been busy ones, to say the least. I finished my Middle Reader novel, And Then the Sky Exploded and delivered the completed manuscript to Dundurn at the end of December, and the book will appear in September of this year. The book goes back and forth between modern day North America as seen through the eyes of the central character, Christian Deaver, and the hours and days immediately after the detonation of the bomb that was dropped on Hiroshima in August of 1945.
I then turned my attention to completing the second book in the Cullen and Cobb crime novel series. After the success of Serpents Rising, I signed with Dundurn for Books 2, 3 and 4. The second title in the series, Dead Air, will be in bookstores in January of 2017. As a longtime lover of mysteries, this is something I have always wanted to do and I'm delighted that it's finally happening and that readers appear to be taking to the series.
And switching hats for a moment, 2015 was a time of wonderful and unexpected surprises through my work as a rodeo and bull riding announcer and commentator. In September, I received the Glen Keeley Memorial Ring at the Stavely PBR Bull Riding. Such an honour to receive an award bearing the name of a longtime, special friend and amazing bull riding talent who we lost far too soon.
Then, in November, at the Canadian Finals Rodeo, I was genuinely dumbfounded to receive the Douglas Lake Ranch Cowboy of the Year Award. The surprise, the pride and the absolute joy I felt at being the first announcer to receive the award was indescribable and it was a moment I will truly never forget.
With spring in the air, there are rodeos to get, more books to write, miles to run and horses to ride…and, most importantly, a wonderful family to spend time with. I guess it's not surprising that I'm really excited at what the rest of 2016 has in store.
We'll talk again, soon.
... David

Pizza Parkers
You were the rude woman with the overfed and underexercised son sitting in your VW Jetta in the handicapped space, eating pizza at the District. You told me I had no business knowing what your disability was that entitled you to the placard. I never asked about that. I was asking you if you really needed that space when you and your son got out of the vehicle and walked the 500 feet to TJ Maxx, while there were so many other "normal" spaces closer that you could have taken. You and all the other "two-legged" people like you with handicap placards take those spaces away from people such as me who really need them: wheelchair users. You and all the other placard holders should know that just because you have a placard does not mean you MUST park in the handicapped space. Handicap spaces are not an entitlement; they are a necessity. I hope you had a nice time walking up and down the aisles of TJ Maxx!

SALT INFORMATION for ANACIN
Aspirin(ASA)(400 mg)
Aspirin is used to treat pain including headache, migraine, neuralgia, toothache, sore throat, pain in joints, period pains and to reduce fever. It is also used as an anti-platelet agent (blood thinner) to decrease chances of heart attack in patients.
How it works
Aspirin (acetyl salicylic acid) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug. Aspirin reduces the production of a chemical (prostaglandin) in the body by blocking the enzyme that makes prostaglandins (cyclooxygenase). Therefore, swelling, pain, and fever are reduced. This also helps in blood thinning and in preventing clotting.
Common side effects
Nausea, Bronchoconstriction (constriction of air passages), Angioedema (swelling of deeper layers of skin), Bleeding, Cerebral hemorrhage, Dizziness, Shortness of breath, Gastrointestinal discomfort, Gastric erosion, Gastric ulcer, Gastrointestinal bleeding, Hepatitis (viral infection of liver), Enlarged liver, Indigestion, Respiratory alkalosis, Running nose, Ringing in ear, Urticaria, Vertigo, Vomiting
Caffeine(40 mg)
Caffeine is used in combination with pain killers (aspirin and paracetamol) to ease pain that includes headache, migraine, neuralgia, toothache, sore throat, period pains, relief of sprains, strains, rheumatic pain, muscular aches and pains, joint swelling and stiffness, influenza, feverishness and feverish colds. As caffeine citrate, it is used to treat absence of breathing seen in newborns (primary apnea of premature newborns).
How it works
Caffeine is a drug which belongs to a group of medicines called methylxanthines. Caffeine acts against a chemical called adenosine in the body, and thereby reduces pain. Caffeine also stimulates the brain (central nervous system), heart, and muscles and improves the drive to breathe.
Common side effects
Frequent urge to urinate, Abdominal pain, Anxiety, Excitement, Flushing, Altered heart rate, Insomnia, Restlessness, Tremor

Environmental engineering seniors Eric Millinger, Lauren Schmeisser, Daniela Castanada, and Bryn Bel won first place in a national student design competition with the water softening process they developed to upgrade a Midwestern drinking water treatment plant. It was the second time that CU students have taken first place in the competition, which is sponsored by AECOM.
During the semester, the team completed an alternatives assessment and preliminary design as part of the EVEN senior design course taught by Angela Bielefeldt. The CU team was then chosen from a field of 15 teams working on two different design problems. As one of five semi-finalists, the students participated in a video interview with AECOM's New York office, and then traveled to New York City to face one other team in the final round.

BOSTON -- Outfielder Daniel Nava was a late scratch from the Boston Red Sox lineup Sunday after receiving a cortisone shot in his sore left hand.
Nava said he did not injure the hand while playing, but admitted he first felt pain in it before Saturday's game against the Washington Nationals at Fenway Park.
Nava, who is hitting .298 with 19 RBIs since being recalled from Triple-A Pawtucket last month, said he's hoping to be back in the lineup on Monday when the Red Sox meet the Miami Marlins.
"If it's good tomorrow, I can go tomorrow," he said.

Classes Needed:
Balance Druid

Always looking for exceptional DPS of any class.
About Us:
We are a guild, made up of former members of <Red Shift> and <Casually Addicted>, on Bleeding Hollow (PvP Server on a Chicago Datacenter) that have a common goal and will do what is necessary to achieve it. We are Shifty Casuals.
We are a group of professional adults, who believe success in raiding doesn't correlate to number in days/hours you spend raiding. We are starting a fresh page within our guild history and sticking to a 3 day a week raid schedule.
We don't tolerate elitism, bigotry, misogyny or any of the like. We enjoy our calm, adult environment and have no qualms with protecting it.
We do loot council which is fair and distributes loot for the progression of the raid as a whole and not an individual player. No favoritism, no loot drama.
We have our sights set on top 100 US for Legion and are looking for like-minded individuals to join our ranks.
Raid Days and Times (All times in EST as that is our server time):
· Tuesday 8:45pm-11:45pm
· Wednesday 8:45pm-11:45pm
· Thursday 8:45pm-11:45pm
Who We Want:
Since we are reforming and building for the expansion now is a great time to get in on the ground floor and clear content with us, while prepping for the new expansion. These are some key traits that we are looking for:
· Someone who understands that 3 nights a week raiding means that you need to bring your A-game each and every night. Attendance is expected to be near 100%. By committing to raid, you are committing yourself to our raiding schedule.
· The ability to perform under pressure. We only recruit impressive players, and spots are always competitive.
· Extensive class knowledge of your class. (IE: Alpha/beta testing, keeping up with theorycrafting, properly gemmed/enchanted, always be up to date on the intricacies of your class (not solely your spec(s)) and on the utility of the entire raid group.)
· A computer that can handle 20-30 man raiding and the ability to communicate via VOIP when needed. You must have a working headset and mic, and you must be prepared to use them. We will not read chat during boss fights. Inability to give a vocal response will not be tolerated as it directly hinders progression.
· Tough skin. We're always looking to improve ourselves as should you. Constructive criticism is encouraged, but flaming and insulting is not tolerated whatsoever.
If you have what it takes to be a part of this great team and community, feel free to apply at our website http://shiftycasuals.wowlaunch.com/. If you have questions about the application process, contact any of the officers for additional information.

The second round of the World Off-Road Championship Series was held for the first time at Cross Creek MX in Austin, Texas, February 21-22, and a first-time WORCS winner prevailed. Former full-time motocrosser Bobby Bonds, on a Team Green-backed Kawasaki, took top honors on what turned out to be a race course that many would have guess favored the more off-road savvy riders.
Finishing as the runner-up was another former motocrosser Montclair Yamaha/Zip-Ty Racing's Nathan Woods, who battled back and forth with Bonds for most of the race. Kawasaki Team Green's Destry Abbott also had his hands full with a number riders before crossing the finish line in third place. Yamaha-mounted Ty Davis was in the hunt all day as well, finishing fourth ahead of Suzuki-mounted privateer Robert Naughton, who returned to action after skipping the opening round in Texas with an injured foot.
Hare & Hound National Champion Russell Pearson seemed to have a lock on third place late in the race when he suffered a mechanical problem that knocked him out of contention.
Lance Smail, another motocrosser-turned off-roader, who won round one of the series in Mesquite, finished ninth.
