|Lowry Mays (Clear Channel Communications founder)
Mark P. Mays is the former president and CEO of Clear Channel Communications, Inc., a global media and entertainment company based in San Antonio, Texas, United States.[2] Mays took over as president and CEO in October 2004, after serving the company in other roles.
Early life[edit]
Mays graduated from the Hotchkiss School in Lakeville, Connecticut in 1981.[1] Mays holds a B.A. from Vanderbilt University in Math and Economics, and an M.B.A. from Columbia Business School. Mays is an Eagle Scout.[3]
In October 2007, 41 Democratic United States Senators sent a letter of request to Mays, asking him to renounce Rush Limbaugh for his comments allegedly referring to all soldiers who disagreed with the Iraq War as "phony soldiers". Mays gave Limbaugh the letter, who in turn auctioned it on eBay of behalf of the Marine Corps-Law Enforcement Foundation, netting $4.2 million in total for the charity, including the matching funds.[4]
On February 4, 2007 Mays resigned from his position as Chairman at Live Nation.[5] On June 22, 2010, Mays announced his intention to step down as CEO at the end of 2010, but would remain as Chairman of the Board at Clear Channel. The announcement additionally directed the Board to begin a search for his replacement and was sent via email to all Clear Channel employees
Mays is a member of the National Executive Board of the Boy Scouts of America, the organization's governing body.[6] He serves on the board of trust of his alma mater, Vanderbilt University.[7]

Herman Melville
Herman Melville Poems
Where the wings of a sunny Dome expand
I saw a Banner in gladsome air-
Starry, like Berenice's Hair-
Afloat in broadened bravery there;
With undulating long-drawn flow,
As rolled Brazilian billows go
Voluminously o'er the Line.
The Land reposed in peace below;
The children in their glee
Were folded to the exulting heart
Of young Maternity.
Later, and it streamed in fight
When tempest mingled with the fray,
And over the spear-point of the shaft
I saw the ambiguous lightning play.
Valor with Valor strove, and died:
Fierce ...
The Berg (A Dream)
I saw a ship of material build
(Her standards set, her brave apparel on)
Directed as by madness mere
Against a solid iceberg steer,
Nor budge it, though the infactuate ship went down.
The impact made huge ice-cubes fall
Sullen in tons that crashed the deck;
But that one avalanche was all--
No other movement save the foundering wreck.

Durham, N.C. -- Cameron Indoor Stadium
Saturday, 9 p.m., ESPN-HD, ESPN2-HD, ESPNU
coming soon ...
Season To Date: As expected, Duke is one of the best teams in the nation. Playing what has turned out to be one of the toughest schedules in the country (ranked No. 2 by the RPI), the Blue Devils have certainly met expectations, yet have shown they aren't invincible and have struggled to put some inferior teams away down the stretch. The impressive wins have come against Memphis, Indiana and Texas, and included in their 14-1 ACC record are victories over UNC, NC State and Boston College. The Blue Devils lost at Florida State on Wednesday, 79-74, as J.J. Redick shot 10-of-28 from the field (4-14 3pt) for 30 points, while the team committed 17 turnovers and both starting post players fouled out.
Two Stars: With a lineup that uses only seven players, Duke leans heavily on its stars, J.J. Redick and Shelden Williams, who are the only two players on the team scoring in double-digits. Redick has developed into a well-rounded scorer. He'll beat you from beyond the arc (42.6% 3pt), from mid-range (55.1% 2pt) or by driving to the hoop and drawing a foul (88.3% FT). Shelden Williams is the ACC's leading rebounder (10.3) and shotblocker (3.7), as well as ranking fourth in the conference in steals (1.97). As the returning National Defensive Player of the Year, Williams' reputation is more built around his defense (though a few opposing big men have posted big numbers on him over the last year), but his jumpshot has become consistent enough to be a viable offensive weapon now and he's averaging 18.8 points, while shooting 59% from the field.
Statistical Distinctions: For a team ranked No. 1 in the nation and with a 27.2 record, it's not surprising that Duke's team stats are at the top of the conference in many categories, but they're also at the bottom in some as well. The Blue Devils are No. 1 in the ACC in many offensive categories, such as scoring, scoring margin, free throw percentage and three-point percentage. They also are No. 2 in blocked shots and steals and No. 1 in three-point percentage defense. Yet, Duke is second to last in the ACC in both field goal percentage defense and offensive rebounds --- and one of only three teams in the conference with a negative rebounding margin. So what can be taken away from all these stats? First and foremost, Duke is a top-notch offensive club and is especially dangerous from beyond the three-point line, where they're 40.3% team shooting would be even better if Lee Melchionni wasn't well below his numbers from last season. It also should be noted that Duke isn't nearly as reliant on the three-point shot as many think. The Blue Devils hit less than eight threes per game, and three-pointers consist of just over a quarter of their point production. On the defensive end, they are great perimeter defenders and have an elite shotblocker in the middle in Williams, but give up a lot of points inside the arc -- Duke's opponents are shooting 47% on their two-point attempts.
First Matchup: The Feb. 7 meeting in Chapel Hill lived up to its billing. The Tar Heels put together a big second half that turned a 17-point deficit into a five-point lead, until J.J. Redick (35 points) and the Blue Devils battled back for a 87-83 win. Reyshawn Terry (17 points) led five UNC players in double-digits, but the Heels shot just 40% on the evening and committed 21 turnovers.
Series History: Carolina leads the all-time series with Duke, 124-96. u Duke leads the series 47-42 in games played in Durham. The Tar Heels have lost eight of their last nine games in Cameron Indoor Stadium since the 1996-97 season (defeating the Blue Devils in 2000-01). Duke leads the series, 38-30, in Cameron Indoor Stadium. u Overall, Duke has won 16 of the last 19 games in the series. u Carolina and Duke have met 59 times when both teams were ranked in the Associated Press Top 25, with Duke leading the series in those games, 31-28. u Carolina is 31-31 against Mike Krzyzewski-coached Duke teams.

"Well, what a heck of a way to end an already eventful February! In the oft-used and misquoted words of Hemingway, Did the earth move for you, too?The headline of my Feb. 21 column said, if it's shaking like Jell-O, perhaps you're in Utah. Hah! Nope; if it was shaking like Jell-O last week, you were in the good old Pacific Northwest, riding out the worst rattler since 1949. And thank heaven it did shake like Jell-O rather than jolt and rattle, because that's evidently what saved our area from becoming the latest headline-making major disaster. As I understand it, damage was minimal given the magnitude of the quake and, as awful as even one death is, I think we all know how much worse it might have been.I well recall the quake of 1949, my first and worst to date. I stood outside our high school building, watching it undulate as though it were made of rubber, not brick and mortar. I remember thinking that it was not possible for a brick wall to behave like a bowl of Jell-O, but there it was, right before my eyes. I was also anxiously watching the ground around me, fearfully waiting for huge cracks to open up beneath us and begin swallowing the huddled groups of kids who'd been sent outside the old building for safety. I'd seen the old movie San Francisco and knew what was surely going to happen, so I was frantically trying to figure out where to jump when the ground opened up.That's the thing about being in something like an earthquake, or tornado, or raging flood - we always remember where we were and what we were doing when it hit. The main topic of conversation for weeks after an such event is, Where were you when...? followed by I remember the one in .......Well, I'll not be participating in such conversations this time, because I missed it altogether. I'll have no memories of the great quake of February, 01, to share with fellow islanders, no quirky stories about what happened to various household items or how it felt to be riding along the freeway thinking I'd blown a tire. In short, I'll just have to sit quietly and listen whenever the topic comes up, then throw in my two cents about the quake of '49.Why? Because John and I weren't here; we missed it entirely. We were then in California, earthquake capital of the country, where the ground was quiet and steady but the heavens had opened up and let loose with three days and four nights of rain, all the rain Washington so badly needs. Everyone there is talking about it now, where they were and what they did while it was going on. No, not the earthquake; they're pretty commonplace, after all. It's the rain, the big rain of February, 01, that Californians will remember. You can bet I won't be talking about that on the island. RecipesAs always when we travel, I'm having a good time collecting recipes. Each area of our land has its own special cuisine, loosely based on whatever happens to be the locally grown and/or favorite ingredient/s. One such genre is termed Southwestern, one of our favorites, which has certainly become popular in a much wider area than what we know as the Southwest. It's also a bit difficult to define, as it's basically a combination of elements from Spain, Mexico and now Texas, Arizona, New Mexico and California. Because I'm a big fan of soup, especially the kind you throw virtually anything into, Caldo is one of my favorites. The word originally meant broth but now refers more often to clear soup filled with chunks of meat and vegetables, standard fare in home kitchens throughout Mexico, the Southwest and, I might add, our kitchen.Southwestern Caldo2 cups cooked meat (pork, beef, lamb, etc.), cut into bite-sized pieces4 boiling-type potatoes, peeled and cut into quarters1 large onion, quartered3-4 carrots, peeled and sliced into large chunks2 turnips, peeled and quartered1 small head cabbage, coarsely chopped2 ears fresh corn on the cob, sliced into 2-inch rounds4 cups chicken stock or broth (preferably homemade)2 cups water1 t. each, salt and freshly ground black pepper (or to taste)3 T. tequila (or use sherry), optional1 lime, quartered1 T. chopped cilantro2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and finely diced1. Into a large soup pot, place all ingredients except the lime, cilantro and jalapenos. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer for 1 hour. Ladle the soup into large heated soup bowls and top with a sprinkling of cilantro. Allow guests to add jalapeno as desired and serve with a wedge of lime on the side and hot steamed rice. Add a salad and bolillos (hard rolls) for a typical meal. This should serve 4; obviously you can expand this to whatever capacity necessary.As long as we're talking soup, here's another popular Southwestern soup that's equally good whether you serve it hot or chilled, making it great for a winter warmer or summer cooler, although it's warm either way. It's also a beautiful red color, thanks to the roasted chiles.Sopa Roja (Red Soup)2 red bell peppers1 red serrano chile, roasted1 T. vegetable oil1 shallot (or small onion), finely chopped1 lb. ripe plum tomatoes, peeled and seeded2 cups chicken or vegetable stockSalt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste1 yellow bell pepperCroutons and creme fraiche, for garnishChile oil, optional or to taste1. Place both red and yellow bell peppers and the red serrano chile in a baking pan, then place pan under a broiler and roast on all sides until skins are blackened and blistered. Remove from broiler and place in a plastic bag and allow to steam for 6 or 7 minutes, then pull out stems and seeds, scrape off the skin (discard) and slice peppers into strips. Reserve the yellow pepper strips for garnish.2. Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Add shallot, tomatoes, serrano chile and red bell peppers. Cover and cook the vegetables for about 5 minutes, or until softened. Stir in the stock and seasonings and simmer for 20 minutes or until all vegetables are quite tender. Place mixture in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth.3. Reheat the soup, adjust seasonings as necessary, and serve in heated bowls, garnishing each with strips of yellow bell pepper. Serve with croutons and a small dollop of creme fraiche and a drizzle of chile oil, if desired. Serves 4.And if you're a fan of chimichangas, you'll love this easy Southwestern-style dessert:Fruity Chimichangas12 flour tortillas2 cups fruit pie filling, homemade or purchased (cherry, pineapple, berry, etc.)Oil for deep fryingPowdered sugar1. Spoon about 3 T. of fruit filling down the middle of each tortilla. Fold in the ends of the tortilla then roll it up and fasten with a toothpick. Heat the oil in a heavy pot or deep fryer to 375 degrees. Drop the chimichangas in (don't crowd) and fry until golden. Drain on paper towels, dust with powdered sugar and serve warm. Outstanding with ice cream! "

KEVIN KEEGAN: I don't like players kissing the badge - show you care by the way you play... Suarez needs to sort himself out, fans are desperate to worship the ground he walks on, not falls on
Never ask Kevin Keegan to 'show us yer medals'. The latest contributor to MailOnline's Footballers' Football Column has been a champion in England, Germany and Europe as a player, a multi-promotion success as a manager, and belongs to the select band of men who bossed England. Now a pundit, he has always been game for a laugh, but he gets serious too, so watch out Fabricio Coloccini and Luis Suarez. But watch his video interview first; he was so candid we've had to post it in three parts...
With the second leg of the Capital One Cup semi-finals coming up, I've been doing a spot of promotion work for the competition.
These are nervous times for fans, with their teams so close to reaching Wembley and this is just a bit of fun (like the time I collaborated with Sir Henry Cooper in 1980, pictured below).
No-one remembers me for my goals but everyone remembers my hair, singing and falling off my bike in Superstars.
Talking of Superstars, I was working abroad so I missed the 2012 version with the Olympic stars but people told me about it. Yes, I came off the bike but what everyone seems to forget is that I actually won the event.
Look now at the velodromes which have been built. Well we were on racing bikes with ½" tyres on a red shale running track, so no wonder I didn't stay on. It hurt, too. I had to spend two days in hospital because I'd lost all the skin down my back.
Looking back it was great fun. All sports people are competitive, I'm sure it was the same for the recent one. Brian Jacks was unbelievable but in many ways it was the beginning of the end when he came in because he was a more professional Superstar while we were footballers who turned up and made everyone laugh by tipping over our canoes.

I spend a lot of time working abroad now. My work with ESPN will come to an end this year when they lose the rights but it's been a fantastic four years and I've really enjoyed it. The Premier League is massive all over the world.
Last week I was in Norway covering the games and before that I was working in Malaysia. Everyone follows the Premier League and in Malaysia they have to get up at one or two in the morning to do it – it was quite strange walking out of a TV studio at six in the morning. It was very different as far as my body clock was concerned.

- PETER ODEMWINGIE: The Premier League table is so tight, as a player you find that very stressful... But I like my new boss at Stoke, especially his team talks 11/02/14
People ask me whether I am now finished with management. You can never say never. I have been offered four or five jobs since I left Newcastle in such terrible circumstances but none was right for me.
The only way I would come back is if I could see myself as part of the vision, which is far more important than financial reasons.
Newcastle was a pull to me. I'd played there and my father came from there.
It's got to be something more than money. But I've listened to the job offers and thought that the dreams I was being sold could not match reality..
Talking of Newcastle, I have read reports that Fabricio Coloccini wants to leave although I don't know the reasons.
If it's a health issue, either to himself or a member of his family, then that would put a different light on it because football is not more important than life.
But if it is for another reason, then what message does that send out to the other players if he is allowed to go?
I bought Coloccini, along with Jonas Gutierrez, in 2008 and he only signed a four-year contract last season. He's a key player, the captain, and his departure would be a blow.
There is a danger that other good players in the team, like Yohan Cabaye, Hatem Ben Arfa, and Cheick Tiote could start to think 'Why should we stay then?'
Another player from one of my former clubs has been in the news. Luis Suarez wears my old No 7 shirt at Liverpool and the fans are desperate to worship the ground he walks on, not falls on.
He's a very good player and has been excellent this season but he gets involved in far too many controversial incidents.
When you are a manager of an English
club and your foreign players go home you just wait for something to
come out.
Players relax and think that, as they are in Argentina or Spain or wherever, that their words are not coming back because they weren't speaking English.
Suarez admits he dived against Stoke. I remember the game and I don't
think there was anyone in the world who thought he did anything but
dive. But what he does is put the club into a difficult position.
Brendan Rodgers has no choice but to discipline one of his players and it's all about Suarez for non-footballing reasons. He needs to sort that side out as he is an exceptional player.

I wasn't able to go to the FA's 150th anniversary celebration although 150 is something to celebrate.
One of the things that I hope is addressed in the future is the number of football people at the FA. There are many more administrators and that's wrong. Sir Trevor Brooking does us proud but there should be more like him, more of a mix.
A professional footballer can always become an administrator but it doesn't work the other way round.

I haven't figured this one yet, so don't count on me to give you explanation. Girl in a picture holds a real mirror, and the picture wasn't edited in photoshop – that's the only thing I'm certain. So how can we see different picture of the PC in the mirror then? Comment here, and please explain if you know the solution – [via].

Katherine is a mom of two girls, a teacher and a self-described dilettante. Join her in Losing It as she shares slices of her hectic life and eclectic interests.Read Her Blog "Losing It!"
This blog started as a weight loss journal, really, so tackling the topic of body image and the media isn't too far off topic (although it might fairly be considered to be too massive of an undertaking). Enter Filippa Hamilton, recently fired Ralph Lauren model, and the photoshopped image of her that has been spreading virally all over the internet, leading to lawsuits against innocent bloggers and a massive public relations disaster for Ralph Lauren. At first I just followed this story and gaped, in shock, at the sickeningly unrealistic image it featured. Take a look at this:
I'm not even sure where to begin with this. Her body is so unbelievably distorted that she looks like a Bratz doll:
Note the similarities: unnaturally long and skinny limbs, distorted
and a "lollipop head" – likely because it hasn't been photoshopped,
where the body has been stretched like a gumby doll.
What I want to know is, when did we start letting toy manufacturers dictate the standards of female beauty? My GAWD, I can't believe I used to complain about Barbie dolls and their impact on female body image way back in the 80s. This babe looks positively normal by comparison:
So anyway. Fashion dolls provide us with an unrealistic ideal of feminine beauty and body image. That's not news. Girls have been subjected to unrealistic beauty myths for generations (the first Barbie doll was released in 1959, after all). But at least when we were growing up, the impossible ideal was relegated to dolls, which most of us understood (at least intellectually) to be part of the world of fantasy. Models were skinny, yes, but they were real. Fashion photography in the 60s, 70s, 80s and even 90s may have been airbrushed, but that was just to smooth out the wrinkles and take away the blemishes. Look at this ideal of female beauty from my childhood:
But this is what technology can do. It's truly a double-edged sword. Look at this video, for instance:
I have to admit, when I first watched this video, my thought was, "how can I get that in real life?"
And how sad is that, really?
Mega scared here – I have an active 10 year old girl who is just fine body shape wise. She plays hockey, basketball, volleyball and soccer – she is by no means overweight but because she does not fit the ideal that is being put out there .. she is insecure about her looks. She wants to be perfect. I have her reading a book "To Die For" about a young girl who overdiets and I re-enforce the fact that she is beautiful and not to have unrealistic ideals as to what she should look like. Like many moms out there know though I am not her only influence and I can only hope that keeping the lines of communication open in regards to her body image as well as her life that I can keep her on the right track.
Anne, unfortunately I don't think RL would have sued the bloggers who originally posted the image if they were just trying to start conversation. Nope: this one's sick but true.
Naomi Jesson
It's so disturbing how much we know but are still totally sucked into it. I so worry just about my language and what will it be like in the future for my daughter. I was stick thin but still got tormented about lack of boobs and how thin I was, even though I was naturally that way. It hard to keep it all in check.
http://www.MississaugaKids.com Mississauga Kids
I wonder… do you think maybe they used this image to start a conversation.
One can only hope I suppose.
Wow. The Ralph Lauren thing is absolutely frightening! What is going on with this world?? Wonder Woman was so thin but it was really her.
I am ashamed of myself after watching the video though. Because no matter how hard I tried I couldn't help thinking, "she looks really good now". Ugh. I've got some work to do before I can help my daughter get perspective!
Great post, Kath!
it's so scary…the model/photoshop world. I am so scared for my two daughters who see these images and think that this is NORMAL and ideal.

ONA will be a key stakeholder in government's transformation of community care
December 17, 2015
On December 17, the government released a discussion paper on the transformation of community care including Community Care Access Centres (CCACs). The government acknowledges the integral role that Care Coordinators have in the coordination of home care services.
The Ontario Nurses' Association (ONA) will be a full participant and key stakeholder in the government's upcoming consultation on the discussion paper over the next two to three months.
The government's proposal is as follows:
1. Ending the existing role and structure of the CCACs. The transition period is expected to take at least one year. This will include the dissolution of the CCAC Boards of Directors.
2. The Local Health Integration Networks (LHINs) will become the employer for all unionized CCAC members. It is the government's intention to maintain our Collective Agreements/wages/benefits and pensions. (This will be at least one year out).
3. The LHINs will become accountable for primary care agencies including Family Health Teams, Community Health Centres, Nurse Practitioner (NP) Led Clinics and Physician groups.
4. Public Health will continue to be under municipal management.
ONA has determined the following principles that will form the backdrop for our position to be set out in the consultation:
1. Provide stability and continuity of services to the public through continuity of the role of Care Coordinators and other CCAC direct care services, e.g. Rapid Response Nurses, Palliative NPs and Placement Coordinators.
2. Ensure continuity of the wages, benefits and working conditions (including pensions) of CCAC ONA members through legislation in order to maintain good jobs.
3. Ensure minimal bureaucracy as necessary to support health integration processes - reinvesting funding in front-line care for our patients.
4. Work towards a fully integrated public home care system that integrates the delivery of home care services and care coordination.
5. Ensure that any savings from the reduction in the duplication and fragmentation that exists in the current system is reinvested in home care services.
ONA has reviewed the discussion paper released today by the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care (MOHLTC). We have set out below ONA's initial thoughts on the proposals:
• ONA supports the ongoing continuity of the terms and conditions of work, including wages, benefits and pensions, for Care Coordinators (and other ONA classifications). Our work in CCACs will remain status quo during the transition period (except for normal changes that would occur over the course of the next year).
• ONA supports the transfer of CCAC work to the LHINs and hospitals.
• ONA supports a much smaller bureaucracy and management within the new structures that facilitates the ability of Care Coordinators to provide the full scope of work and services to their patients.
• ONA believes that quality patient care will be achieved through integration of home care delivery and care coordination in a non-profit structure that is able to provide continuity of patient home care services.
In Solidarity,
Linda Haslam-Stroud, RN
ONA Provincial President

Scouts and Guides in Abu Dhabi
Time Out looks at the scouting and Brownie groups in Abu Dhabi 2 Comments
- Picture 1 of 2
While it might conjure up images of dodgy shorts and something called a woggle, Scouting is still an incredibly popular pastime, with several groups thriving in the area. And it's not all about the boys, with Brownie and Guides groups for the girls quietly building up a following in the UAE for the past 40 years.
Ever since founder Robert Baden-Powell held the first Scouting encampment at Brownsea Island in England in 1907, millions of youngsters have been donning the distinctive uniform and learning to love the great outdoors. So what's the secret of its success? And why are today's kids still enthusiastic about something that involves good old-fashioned fresh air and exercise, with not a Wii remote in sight?
We spoke to the District Commissioner for British Guiding in Abu Dhabi, Adele Steel, about its enduring popularity. 'Guiding moves with the times,' says Adele. 'It's been going for 100 years, and the movement's come a long way. It has always had a focus on taking responsibility for yourself and trying new things while having fun, but it's not all about childcare and homemaking like it was in the early years. Now they have badges in computer studies and science.'
Adrian Waite, Group Scout Leader for 1st Abu Dhabi Scout Group, agrees: 'At the heart of scouting are principles of young people doing things for themselves. I found that very appealing when I was a kid, and I think young people still do today.'
So what sort of activities does it take to entice the modern-day youngster away from the PlayStation? 'There are now internet based jamborees and a wide range of activities that were not available when we were Scouts,' says Adrian. 'All these are in the programme, alongside the traditional Scouting skillset for self reliance – camping, navigation, cooking, and the community focus of Scouting that has never changed, and hopefully never will.'
And it's not just the times that have been changing for the Scouts and Guides, with Abu Dhabi's desert terrain a far cry from the grassy fields and nature-filled woodland of Brownsea Island, meaning activities have been altered to make the most of the region's environment. 'As we are a British Scout group operating abroad, we try to make use of the local environment. Scuba diving, kayaking and desert camping replace some of the common UK activities, simply because of what's available to us,' adds Adrian.
With a century under its badge-laden belt, the movement has already proved it can stand the test of time, and the inclusive attitude and groups that cater for all ages means there's a place for all the littl'uns. 'A leader once told me you can do anything within Scouts, but you do it "in a Scouting way",' adds Adrian. 'I think that means learning, applying and taking responsibility, but above all making a choice to have a good time doing whatever it is you are doing.'

For years I've looked at the window of my guest bath and said it needed something. Positioned over the shower/tub, I see it on my way to and from my sewing studio. Putting just anything there just wasn't going to do. Nothing in bath wares was appropriate, desirable, or inspirational. It was a record hot Summer, this year. Thoughts of cools breezes and the colors of spring keep popping into my head. Inspiration struck and out came Tulips in the Window.
Tulips in the Window comes in two sizes. The 6x10 hoop size version finishes to 5 x 10 inches (125 x 250 mm). The 5x7 hoop size version finishes to 3½ x 7 inches (87 x.175 mm)
Like my other Outdoor Quilts, Tulips in the Window finishes to one background layer of fabric and one appliqué layer, with a two fabric layer border. No batting or backing fabric to trap moisture, mold, or mildew.
Tulips captures stitches a little Mother Nature whimsy with the accuracy and precision of the embroidery machine, to create fabric art for inside windows, where the addition of a little personal color and privacy are desired.

handoff(n.) The transfer of a cellular phone transmission from one radio frequency within a cell to another radio frequency in an adjacent cell. Handoffs occur when a cellular phone user passes out of the range that the cell can handle and into another cell��s range, and the signal is passed from one base station to the next. The handoff is transparent to the user and typically will not result in a loss of service unless the user moves out of range of a cell��s base station. The transition and the process required to make the transition are both referred to as the handoff.
(v.) To pass a cellular transmission from one cell to another.

Your Guide to Understanding Qualifying Life Events and Special Enrollment Periods
The Affordable Care Act, popularly known as "Obamacare," changed a lot when it comes to health insurance, including when you can sign up for it.
Before the Affordable Care Act (ACA), if you wanted or needed health insurance your employer didn't offer, you could apply to a private insurer any time of year and be offered a policy priced according to your gender, age and health history. Now that insurers can't price policies based on those personal details, and everyone has to have a health plan or pay a penalty for not having health insurance, open enrollment is the only time you can apply for a compliant plan — unless your life changes in a big way.
Without an open enrollment period, insurers face what's called a moral hazard: Because the tax penalty is cheaper than a year's worth of insurance premiums, healthy people could plan to pay it and get an insurance policy only when they need one. "There's a very strong incentive for people to only sign up when they're sick, and that makes rates go through the roof," explains Shana Charles, health policy expert and assistant professor at California State University in Fullerton.
Here's more about open enrollment, when yours is, and whether you may be able to get insurance outside of that window.
When is open enrollment?
Open enrollment is the period each year when you can sign up for health insurance, change your existing health plan or cancel coverage. During open enrollment, you have plenty of decisions to make.
Open enrollment for workplace health insurance usually occurs near the end of a calendar year, and the coverage you sign up for usually starts on Jan. 1 of the next year, though the exact time frame will depend on who provides your health insurance.
For individual and public health plans in 2017, open enrollment periods are:
- Federal and state ACA exchanges: Nov. 1, 2016, to Jan. 31, 2017.
- Medicare: Three months before and three months after your 65th birthday, as well as Jan. 1 to Mar. 31, 2017.
- Medicaid: no open enrollment; you can join or cancel Medicaid year-round.
- Children's Health Insurance Plans: no open enrollment; you can join or cancel CHIP year-round.
If you get health insurance through an employer, your open enrollment period will likely be much shorter and determined by your company. You can check with a human resources representative to find out when it is, but just like the public programs listed above, your company may have certain exceptions.
Special enrollment periods
Life happens, and when it does, your health coverage may have to change. If you experience a qualifying life event that affects your insurance needs, you can take advantage of a special enrollment period.
If you have insurance through your job, your company's human resources department should work with you to update your plan if you experience a qualifying life event. Your company may only allow 30 days to change your plan, so don't wait to inform HR if you experience the following and need to change your coverage:
- Marriage, divorce or legal separation.
- Adoption or birth of a child.
- Death of a spouse or child.
- A child on your policy turns 26.
- Taking or returning from a leave of absence.
- A change in your work schedule that causes you to gain or lose coverage.
- Change in residence or work location of you or a dependent on the policy.
To add, change or discontinue health insurance outside of open enrollment in a public health plan, the same life events apply, plus a few more. These also count as qualifying life events for existing or potential Medicare and ACA plan beneficiaries:
- Losing job-based coverage, either through your employer or a family member's.
- Losing individual health coverage through a private plan.
- Losing eligibility for Medicare, Medicaid or CHIP.
- You or one of your covered dependents gain or lose other benefits coverage due to a change in employment status — for example, beginning or ending a job.
- Changes in your income that affect the coverage you qualify for.
- Gaining membership in a federally recognized tribe or status as an Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act Corporation shareholder.
- Becoming a U.S. citizen.
- Leaving jail or prison.
- AmeriCorps members starting or ending their service.
If you have an ACA plan and one of these events occurs, you'll likely have 60 days from the time of the event to secure new health insurance or update your policy without facing the tax penalty. There are other, more complicated life events that may qualify you for special enrollment in public programs, and those are considered on a case-by-case basis. You'll have to apply at Healthcare.gov to know for sure.
Missed open enrollment and don't have a qualifying life event?
If you need health coverage outside of open enrollment and don't qualify for special enrollment, you may still have options. If you make less than about 138% of the federal poverty level, you may be eligible for Medicaid, which enrolls year-round. CHIP, which is for low-income children, also enrolls year-round. Medicaid and CHIP eligibility requirements vary by state, so check your state's guidelines to know if you qualify.
If you don't qualify for Medicaid or CHIP and still need coverage, you can look into short-term health insurance policies, which are often inexpensive. However, most temporary health plans cover less than traditional policies and do not satisfy the ACA's individual mandate. That means that even with a temporary plan, you'll likely still have to pay the tax penalty for going uninsured for 90 days or more in any calendar year.
Aside from those two options, you may be out of luck if you want health insurance outside of open enrollment. If that's the case, take steps to minimize your health risks by avoiding dangerous sports, keeping a clean home and vehicle, eating healthy, and staying away from anyone who even looks sick.
Then, make sure you're on top of your game by shopping smart and signing up for next year's plan early during the next open enrollment.

Dan (and the crew),
Greetings from Cartagena, Colombia! The route from Bogota took us over all three sections of the Andes in Colombia. Lots of unpaved roads ... but Oh my God ... beautiful. We have been treated exceptionally well here. Even got a police excort for over 5 hours, as two policeman tailed us on a motorcycle along a 30k stretch of road know for FARC activity.
The bikes are holding up well, as usual. We will probably put them on a bus to Venezuela, to avoid a flat, truck-filled stretch and get back to the mountains.
Hope all is well.

Video: Cops arrest three after Delaware brawl goes viral
Investigators are glad the crimes were recorded, but say they do not yet know the videographer's identity
By Cris Barrish
Delaware Online
DOVER, Delaware — A six-minute video of a Dover melee last week has gone viral on the Internet in recent days, leading city police to say more people seen on the clip could face criminal charges.
Three women already have been charged in Wednesday's daytime street attack on a 33-year-old woman -- who was hospitalized for several fractured ribs, a collapsed lung and a large head bruise -- and a 24-year-old man, who needed stitches to close a head wound.
Police responded to the scene and eventually identified three female suspects whom the victims picked out of a photo lineup, Dover police Capt. Tim Stump said. The women were charged with assault and other offenses Thursday.

Carb flu - Treat it like a rebirth or a right of passage you will feel better than you ever have once you are through it!
Eating primal is not a diet, it is a way of life.
Don't forget to play!
Welcome. I hope you get through the "carb flu" quickly.
Ancestral Health Info
I design websites and blogs for a living. If you would like a blog or website designed by someone who understands Primal, see my web page.
Primal Blueprint Explorer My blog for people who are not into the Grok thing. Since starting the blog, I have moved close to being Archevore instead of Primal. But Mark's Daily Apple is still the best source of information about living an ancestral lifestyle.
thank you I will look up more about that to see if there is anything i can do to help it. its difficult to get any extra rest other than going to sleep a bit earlier.
I'm also wondering about circadian rhythms and how I can apply that where I live when its just getting light as i'm leaving for work and its getting dark before i get home. any ideas?
Your body will adapt. Don't worry about circadian rhythms, just go to bed earlier if you are tired. Unless you are vitamin D deficient, you don't have to do anything, just go with the seasons. According to my quick google search, anywhere from 8% to 70% of Americans are vitamin D deficient, lol... so YMMV. They do have ways to test Vit D, and the treatment is Vit D3 supps, proper foods, and sunlight when available.

Cheap Android tablets are nothing new, but Sunyvale, Calif., company MIPS Technologies looks to be one of the first out of the gate with a cheap Ice Cream Sandwich tablet. The first version is launching as a 7-incher -- 8- and 9-inch tablets are on the way. It's running a 1GHz MIPS-Based XBurst CPU with a Vivante GC860 GPU has the usual Wifi, Bluetooth, HDMI and microSD features.
We've generally been less than impressed by most every cheap Android tablet we've seen. You usually do get what you pay for when it comes to this sort of thing. But MIPS' press release also includes a quote from Android's Andy Rubin, who said:
"I'm thrilled to see the entrance of MIPS-Based Android 4.0 tablets into the market. Low cost, high performance tablets are a big win for mobile consumers and a strong illustration of how Android's openness drives innovation and competition for the benefit of consumers around the world."
It's being touted as retailing for less than $100. In fact, it's $99. And we just paid $66 in shipping. We'll just have to see when we get our hands on the MIPS whether it's worth even that much. Full presser's after the break.

SCOTTSDALE AND PHOENIX, AZ. -- Brian Sabean was talking about, well, everything regarding his team's upcoming task in re-defending the crown. He knew that the last time the Giants had to defend the crown, they attacked the task with strong arms and Wiffle bats, and ended up winning 86 games when they deserved to win 80.

Meet what Air Repair calls the Swiss Army Knife of beauty products. This multitasking, all-natural skin salve can be applied anywhere and everywhere—to lips, hands, face, knees, elbows, and even cuticles—to instantly soothe and heal dry skin. The brand's revolutionary combination of emollients (sweet almond oil, fatty-acid rich lanolin, and vitamin E) effectively inhibits chronic inflammation (or inflam-aging) that causes dryness, irritation, and premature wrinkles. And it does so without parabens, petroleum, or mineral oil. Plus, the travel-friendly packaging makes it easy to slip into your carry-on, so you can be sure your skin stays soft and supple no matter your destination.
The air repair rescue balm is wonderful for dry weather when my lips need more than a swipe of balm in the morning. I love to use it first on my lips, then use any left on my finger on the back of my hands. Its great if you wash your hands often and get cracked knuckles as a result.5
I ordered this based on reviews and I was pleased to find out they were true! So here I am doing my part and reviewing! I love a good lipstick, gloss, crayon you name it I own it. I exfoliate my lips on a regular basis and I stay hydrated but I still end up with a chapped line on my bottom lip. Rescue balm to the rescue! I put this stuff on and hocus pocus my lips look fresh and juicy. I try to alternate days of wearing lip products and then wearing the air repair. I keep it in my purse and it is a life savor when traveling!5

The Basics of Program Design
How many segments will there be per show? How long? How many breaks will there be and what will go in each break? Will music or sound be used? How much will be live? How much pre-produced? Will you engage callers? In every show? Only for certain topics? Never? The answer to each question will have a profound effect on the staff and resources you'll need to produce a show at a consistently high level of quality. More topics generally require more production support.
In addition, consider what the show's online presence will feel like. If you don't address that question from Day One in the process of developing the broadcast format of the show, the online presence will be eternally consigned to an afterthought, and the audience will treat it as such. As we stated at the outset, we are still in the early stages with these new platforms, so best practices have still not been developed. But, research how others are dealing with online and make sure it furthers the goals of the program.
Most stations use a clock with a 5 minute news hole from:01 to :06 but break times and duration are unique to each local program. Here are two sample clocks from WNPR's Where We Live:
- WNPR Daily Show Clock
- WNPR Fundraising Clock
Many stations use floating breaks. These can air at any time during the program and so segment lengths will vary from day to day. An advantage of this format is more flexibility to give topics and guests the amount of time they deserve.
On the other hand, some stations wish to share content with other stations. Adoption of the universal program clock http://www.localnewsinitiative.org/universal_talk_clock.pdf makes it easier to share content with other stations, or preserves that option for future use.
Length and Frequency
The length of the show will depend on the resources you have to support it. Avoid over-committing yourself to a block of airtime that cannot be filled at a consistently high quality. In other words, don't start your program planning with show length.
Since radio listening is driven by habit, for maximum impact daily talk shows should be broadcast at a consistent time across the week with a consistent host and a consistent format.

Panasonic HDC-SD80 Review
The Panasonic HDC-SD80 is an intelligent camcorder which is specifically developed to be able to give you the freedom and intended joy to document every single worth remembering event of your life. It has the features which make it outstanding like the Intelligent Zoom function which can go higher than 42x and has an Intelligent Resolution technology to go with it. That resolution technology is responsible for giving you the ability to shoot with high zoom rates and still preserves the resolution and good quality of the images. Saturation and highly detailed sharpness of the images has never been better. The blurry noises are disintegrated and you are given the luxury to enjoy your fully crystal clear life-like videos. The HD 80 series is also outfitted with a HYBRID O.I.S. which serves as the stabilizer of the images which functions as the corrector of the blurriness. It has the combined brilliance of the hybrid optical and the electrical image stabilization systems. It gives the certain function of correcting every movement and the fast action as both of the experts work in unison to provide the images with a visual clarity that is unwavering. Some of the features include the Crystal Engine PRO which instantly works as a processor for the enormous amount of data delivered to the Full-HD images. It also further enhances and revitalizes the quality of the videos. There is also the Intelligent Resolution Technology integrated in the Crystal Engine PRO which is used for detecting the edge technology as it further confirms the smoothness and preciseness of each image. That technology is responsible for the maximized stunning characteristics of full-HD images. Installing this product to your computer is not at all time-consuming. The video and picture qualities are of excellent distinction. However, there are some missing functions and features with regards to uploading and downloading files. Another disadvantage that can be stated about this camcorder is the quality control. The odds are unavoidable because you may somehow, along the way, encounter a faulty camcorder right out of the box. But other than that, the developers made sure that you get what you paid for so they will whole-heartedly replace your product with a much more functional one as long as you demand it.
