Catching Up
Geez, I've been really bad lately about posting, and even worse in keeping up with everyone else's blogs. Hopefully now that vacations are over and the summer winds down, things will improve on my end.
Part of my problem is that my thoughts have been a little too random lately. I'm never sure whether to lump them all together in one big post, or separate them into smaller posts, and then because of indecision I end up posting nothing at all. So for today, I'm just putting this mish-mash out there for your perusal.
Big Weinie Award
My first Big Weinie Award goes to Pedro Feliz, who, with a runner on first and one out, ran in to field a grounder, and instead of going for the sure out at first, inexplicably fired across his body to second, whereupon it sailed right past Chase Utley (who was obviously not expecting the throw) and into centerfield. So instead of a man on second with two outs, there are now runners on second and third with one out. Things went downhill after that, and I feel no need to recap them all.
[photographic note: What you see above is what happens when a man goes grocery shopping – instead of the normal sized dogs like the one on the left, they come home with the pumped up "Super dogs" like the one on the right. Little did my husband realize they were actually chicken dogs. He was so enamored of their size, he didn't read the rest of the package!]
Who knew housecleaning could be so much fun?
My father-in-law recently sent up a box of stuff that he was unloading, for my perusal. Among the usual picture frames, odd kitchen gadgets, etc. was an almost 29-year-old piece of newspaper. Not just any old paper, mind you, but this:
An old Philadelphia Bulletin (now defunct) from the Phillies first World Series Championship in 1980. Cool! Thanks, PapPap!
Caption Contest #1
Here's a shot of Pirates manager John Russell and bench coach Gary Varsho, taken prior to the Phillies-Pirates game at Citizen's Bank Park on July 10. Coincidentally, both Russell and Varsho spent part of their playing careers as Phillies.
What are they doing? Practicing some sort of synchronized standing? Trying to decide who won't be with the team much longer? Send me your creative captions!
Caption Contest #2
Hmm. Lots of possibilities here. This was taken just last night, July 30, at the Wilmington Blue Rocks game.
David Mailman (yes, that's his real name), an outfielder for the Salem Red Sox, is pondering something, but what?
As always, the best caption(s) will get a shout out in my next post!
(all photos by me)

Nice to see you back on the blogs, Sue! As always, your pics are hilarious. And how cool that your father-in-law unearthed the newspaper article about the Phlllies' first world championship. Definitely a keeper.
Well it is about time you get back to your non-paying, social networking, favorite people in the world not situated in your house!
Only kidding Sue.
Glad to see you back smiling and writing on that side of the keyboard.
Caption 2 might be a bit PG………."So that is what being John Holmes feels like?"
Sorry my subconscious made me do it.
Hope that makes you smile more than it shocks you.
Rays Renegade
Love the newspaper Sue!
And let's see – I've been up since 2:30am so my mind might a little more "off" then usual – but:
#1 – (Sung to the Hokey Pokey) You but your left bat in, you put your left pat out…… (Russell to Varsho) – Come on, you've got to swing your hips more.
#2 (Unlike Rays – I'm not quite as PG!) – So, I wonder if I could have a career in adult films if I was "this long".
just have to play the caption game….
caption #1- (Varsho) WOW!! those rings do have a lot of sparkle in there dug out (Russell) Can't tell I got my cool shades on.
caption #2- (Mailman thinking) I hate to hit a ball with this, it's so long and smooth, I wish, hmmmm Oh well
tried to keep it clean, otherwise it would have been more than PG…
Outside the Phillies Looking In
Hey Sue! Made it home :O) Ok, here are some suggestions:
#1 – "I'm too sexy for this team; too sexy for this team; Whatcha think about that?" (sing along now…LOL)
#2 – "Wishing can make it so"
Hope that helps :O) Ha, ha!
Glad you're back Sue!!
I'm definitely not very creative, so right now, I'll just say that my vote for Caption #2 goes to Rays Renegade, that totally cracked me up.
Oh, PS: Sorry for the team beat down yesterday!! I'll admit that I'm totally excited because Garrett Atkins got a homer, 4 RBIs, and went 2 for 3. Although I entirely expect the Phillies to bounce back today.

A Gentile woman asks Jesus for healing for her daughter. When Jesus tells her that his mission focuses on Israel, she challenges him. Jesus is reminded that God's kingdom is not exclusive but includes the whole world. The distraught woman had caught an early glimpse of that larger vision.
All are assured that salvation comes through baptism. For assistance one can pray 24 hours a day, 7 days a week: God is always there. Just as the Gentile woman revealed her courage and faith in requesting help, one knows one can approach Jesus with their difficulties. When things get harsh, faith is being tested. Rain will come but not yet. Healing for the sick will be given, but results are not seen immediately. God has not forsaken anyone and is always ready when called upon.
The Gentile woman had faith and insisted that she be helped with her daughter. Moses was the first to see faith in asking that the world be saved from destruction as long as even one, five or ten had faith in Him.
In contrast, the disciples wanted to send the woman away. They reminded Jesus he had enough to do among their own people. But Jesus simply said, "Let it be done as you ask." Not everyone can understand why Jesus would share his treasures with outsiders.
Enthusiastically and with gusto one goes forth to share God's message and power with others. When something incredible happens through faith, one is challenged to share what He had done for them. In doing so, one indicates their belief that one is God's child. Not only does such sharing reveal what God has done for all but to boisterously show faith but also to inspire faith in those one tells.
Good Shepherd Lutheran will continue their worship regardless, but the church requests that others in the community join on Sunday, particularly the Eleven Sunday after Pentecost. Service begins at 9:30 a.m. and is followed by Adult Sunday School at 10:45 a.m.

Ready To Spring Into Action
With just under 3 days left until the official start of Spring Training, the Phillies are getting ready to make a push for a third consecutive National League pennant. The position players and the bench players are basically set but the pitching situation has a lot of question marks. As for the starters, will Cole Hamels bounce back after a disappointing 2009? Will JA Happ suffer from the sophomore slump? And who will fill the 5th starters spot?
The rotation currently looks like this: Roy Halladay, Hamels, Joe Blanton and Happ. The 5th spot looks to be a toss-up between Kyle Kendrick and Jamie Moyer. Kendrick's ups and downs plus his lack of diversity in pitch selection do not bode well. Then again, Moyer is coming off 3 surgeries, lengthy hospital stays and also has his age (47) working against him. Moyer told Comcast Sportsnet this week that his recovery is basically done and he is ready to try pitching again. How that will work out remains to be seen.
Bigger question marks loom in the bullpen. It appears that the Phillies only solid lefty, JC Romero, may not be ready to go until May after his arm surgery late last season. Two other solid pen pieces are gone this year; Scott Eyre retired and Chan Ho Park will not return, although, Park has yet to find a team willing to take him on. Youngsters Antonio Bastardo and Sergio Escalona may fill the lefty void, but at what cost? Both were wild last year during their travels between the majors and minors and will need to really step up this Spring if they are to be counted on this season.
The closer position is also a big question; will we see the perfect Brad Lidge of 2008 or the first to worst Lidge of 2009? The injury and surgery history with Lidge do not breed confidence. However, he should at least be motivated by the thought of redeeming himself after last year. If he fails to do so, former closer and off-season pick-up Danys Baez may be able to fill the role. As for the rest of the pen, Ryan Madson and Chad Durbin will return as two of the few solid pieces left over from the last few years.
Aside from pitching, there does not seem to be much to worry about. Placido Polanco may need time to adjust to the move from 2nd to 3rd base, but he has done that before so the issue should be minimal. He has certainly added a better bat to the line-up.
Jimmy Rollins will need to get off to a fast start to boost his confidence after a forgettable 2009. Rollins has stated he will show up to camp with the pitchers and catchers on the first day to get a head start; This will be a nice contrast to his usual routine of being the last player to report in previous years. As for the Rollins crystal ball, all he would say this year is that Halladay will be a 20+ game winner. Not a huge leap for Psychic Rollins, but we'll take it.
As for the rest of the gang, if they can stay healthy, this will be a monster line-up for opponents to deal with. But first, let's see how Spring Training goes :O)

Something tells me that Hamels will have a great year this season (if he stops being such a baby). He pitched very deep into the season in 2008, so I think that definitely affected his 2009 numbers. He seems to be a bit mental too. Didn't JC Romero start the season late last year too (because of PED issues..).
I think Hamels will have a good year as well but he really needs to develop his curveball, or get rid of it entirely. I think that was his problem last year, using it as an out pitch and reacting….um…poorly because it wasn't working out for him. And I always wonder why Rollins can't tun his crystal ball on himself and make a few "predictions" about his performance! Great blog!

Thanks again Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers! By far, my best show yet! I could write a book about how you have touched, inspired and co-conspired in fulfilling my dreams, but last night you blew me away! So great to hear the stuff from the "vault" and even more fulfulling that you once again delivered a divine connection with a friend from my past. (That's another story for the book...)
I flew in from PDX to LA and my GF came from SLC. Unsure about she and I, it seemed as if TP delivered a show just for us. Every note, riff and lyric may have well been a ceremony to stitch our (broken) hearts and souls together. Not sure how it happened but there is some divine connection with your music, my life and a long departed friend and fan. The only way I can describe it is my deceased friend is keeping the R&R vibe going via TP & the HBs. I bow in humble reverence! Can't wait to see you again!
Forerever gratefiul to be there, Dave. : )

CNJ staff photo: Tony Bullocks Stephanie Taylor, of Clovis, puts her groceries away Tuesday in the Albertsons parking lot. Taylor said she just got back from Lubbock and despite the snowfall had to buy groceries because she still has to eat.
By Sharna Johnson: CNJ staff writer
The third snowfall of the season dumped as much as 3 inches in the area Tuesday, making for treacherous driving and many minor accidents.
The snow storm blanketing most of central and northern New Mexico, moved in just after 9 a.m.
Area law enforcement encouraged people to stay home.
"We're discouraging travel, particularly in Curry and Roosevelt Counties," State Police Capt. Jimmy Glascock said.
Glascock advised drivers daring to brave roads to, "Drive slow and allow plenty of distance between vehicles."
Glascock said officers had handled two crashes in Curry County — a rollover on U.S. 70 and another of a vehicle that slid off the roadway into a car parked on the shoulder.
There were minor injuries, he said.
Just before lunch time, Curry County Sheriff's Deputies responded to a crash involving a semi and pickup truck on U.S. 60/84. Law enforcement closed the highway for about an hour.
"We haven't had a lot of weather (related problems)," Undersheriff Wesley Waller said.
In the city there were minor fender-benders but no major crashes, Lt. Jim Schoeffel said.
But police were concerned about deteriorating road conditions as temperatures dropped around nightfall.
"If the temperature drops and we start seeing black ice, then that's when we see people losing control," Schoeffel said.
"It's always a good idea to reduce your speed in inclement weather, especially if you're not accustomed to driving in snow and ice."
Glascock said Curry and Roosevelt Counties got the brunt of the snowfall.
Portales Police reported very few accidents related to the snow.
City trucks were out in force but Berry said they were fighting snow as it pelted the area.
The Roosevelt County Sheriff's Office had a few reports of people sliding off in the ditch.
"Most of the major highways are cleared off, but the side roads are still going to be slick," said Sheriff Darren Hooker.
The storm's reach extended far beyond eastern New Mexico. Carlsbad Caverns National Park was closed and White Sands Missile Range was on a two-hour delay.
Carlsbad Caverns management assistant Paula Bauer says the park closed after snow made park roads slick.
Bauer says depending on weather and road conditions, the park could reopen Wednesday.
White Sands officials expected up to six inches of snow at San Augustin Pass on U.S. 70 and up to four inches at lower elevations.

It happens more often than I'd like to admit: my ball ends up on the cart path.
So, how do I take relief from this immovable obstruction?
To take relief from a cart path, or any immovable obstruction, you first must establish the nearest point of relief without going closer to the hole. For a cart path, go to one end of the path and mark where you are free from the relief. Then, go to the other side of the path and establish where you are free from the obstruction. Put a mark there.
Free from the obstruction means that both you and the ball are off the cart path.
Once you have two points marked, you must decide which of the two points is closer to the ball on the path. After you make that decision, you have one club length from the mark where you are allowed to drop your ball.
Remember, just because there are two marks, you are not allowed to decide which point is best. You have to take the one closest to the ball.

OMG, only three days to go!… and I have once again procrastinated for the past month, telling myself I had plenty of time to get things organized and ready for my trip. And once again, the trip has snuck up on me, leaving me feeling totally stressed at the realization of everything I still need to do before Thursday morning.
When will I ever learn?
Thankfully, those of you reading this don't have to deal with me in person the next few days, because I'm liable to be cranky and unpleasant. But once we've checked into our room, and I have my first refreshing adult beverage in hand, all worries will be forgotten (or at least pushed into the dark recesses of my mind for a few days).
Tickets are in hand for three Phillies games at Bright House Field – Phils vs Twins (3/13), Phils vs Tigers (3/16), and Phils vs Yankees (3/17). We also have tickets to see the Phillies play the Pirates in Bradenton on 3/15.
I'm really looking forward to the chance to use my new "toy", which I just got last week:
The Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 L lens with Image Stabilization. I had a chance to try this amazing lens last year at a photo workshop held at a Lehigh Valley IronPigs game. Let me tell you, the difference between photos taken with my old lens and with this one was obvious – even my husband, who has no camera sense, could tell the difference.
I'm also looking forward to the chance to meet Jane Heller of Confessions of a She-Fan fame. Jane will also be at the 3/17 Phillies vs Yankees game. She'll probably have her She-Fan Cam with her, so I hope I'm having a good hair day that day!
10 Comments
You WILL be on the She-Fan Cam, Sue, so be ready! I'll be getting down to St. Pete on 3/15 so let's email and exchange cell phone #s and figure out how to connect on 3/17. Can't wait!
I am SO wishing I was going with you! And that lens is awesome :O) Wish I could get one for my Olympus, but so far, they are not making it for my camera. The Pigs/Dan's are doing the workshop again this year but I don't know the dates yet…will let ya know. Really had fun last year; hoping to go again :O)
Wow, that's an amazing lens!! I can't wait to see some of the pictures that you get with that baby. Hope you have a great trip with not too much stress🙂
Hope you have a safe trip and lots of fun in Florida…and take an extra razor for Werth…
Outside the Phillies Looking In
have a great time in florida. thats awesome! im so jealous i would love to get down there some year
Exciting. What a big lens. I still can't get into the complexities of any other than a simple point and shoot with a good zoom. My back already is breaking carrying all those balls, my glove, my food, my water, my giveaways!! Luckily I have a good season seat without obstruction.
I can't wait to see your pictures and report.
Lucky you, to get to see Jane. She is fantastic and gorgeous.
Wish I was in FL with you all!! Have a great time and hope the Phillies do well.
I know what you mean about procrastinating! I do the same. But the times that we drive I am the one with the snacks for everyone, coffee, water, etc. We came back last Monday from our trip and we had an awesome time even with one rainout. I know you will have a grrrreat time! And meeting Jane, just more icing on the cake! Have a good margarita for me!
I hope you're having fun! You can definitely scalp extra tickets! I would have loved the chance to meet you, but too bad all the stadiums in FL are so damn spread out! Look at that lens! Can't wait for pics!
So just watched you on the SheFanCam…. love the stylish shades… glad you guys had fun and that the Phillies beat the Yankees while you played host to Jane… hope you guys have a safe trip home….

Gas well explosion kills local worker
A Little Hocking man was identified as the one who was killed in a natural gas well explosion in Taylor County on Friday.
Central Environmental Services CEO Jeff Harper released a statement on the death of Brian Hopkins, 43.
"On the morning of Feb. 15, 2013, our employee, Brian Hopkins, was at a customer's well-pad near Flemington in Taylor County, W.Va, preparing to perform normal work-related tasks when an explosion occurred, killing Brian and causing some damage to the area where he was working," Harper wrote. Company officials said Hopkins was on the work site and near two of the tanks when the explosion took place.
"He had not begun actually transferring water when the accident took place," Harper said. "Water transfer is one of the services we offer at CES and is a routine activity that our employees do every day.
"The well site where the accident happened produces dry gas and does not contain any condensates."
State and federal agencies, including OSHA, the Department of Environmental Protection and the state police, are investigating, company officials said. CES is based in Wood County.
"We are, of course, cooperating fully with them and in addition, conducting our own investigation in an effort to understand what caused this accident and how we can ensure the continued safety of our employees at job sites," Harper said.
We have an excellent safety record throughout our years of operation and always put the safety and well-being of our employees first.
Harper described last Friday as the worst day in the history of our company.

Re: Zippy
I take it this is good news, but wonder what the criteria is for finding a reg permanent Crew chief for Danica, course her being PT this yr probably not that important right now? Danica really likes her NNS crew and wonder if any of them, like her engineer, chief mechanic etc has expressed desire to move up to Cup with her eventually, as they for sure know what kind of setup she needs or likes more or less? Other NNS people have moved up to Cup so possible i guess?
Re: Zippy

More important than finding Danica a CC, first order of business should be to get Ryan a cup worthy CC.
I agree. We need to help Ryan. Would love to see him win the Chase.

With Joshua I had OALD and oversupply. I had to blockfeed, and eventually my supply was manageable.
Right now Jonah nurses on one side per feeding (always has). I def. have too much foremilk this time, and a forceful let-down. He is very nervous at the breast, swallows air, etc. We are also dealing with a poor latch (some of which is because he is nervous about latching on fully and getting sprayed). I can only nurse him when he is just waking up, otherwise he screams and arches away.
His poops are always frothy and green. I'm afraid to blockfeed though because my supply seems to go way down in the evenings (from 4pm on). Plus, my breasts always seem soft. There can't be that much milk in there. He gets super fussy, and mad when my milk doesn't letdown right away. I have to rock him until he is almost asleep and then try to get him on. He nurses on both sides in the evening, and never seems content.
Should I still attempt to blockfeed? If not, how much longer will this be an issue (at what age do they get over the strong flow/foremilk tummy cramsp?)
I do nurse him laying back.

I love this sentiment.....After Georgia resumed breastfeeding, she nursed until she was four-and-a-half years old. Her second and final weaning happened almost without our noticing. One day, when a friend asked me how nursing a preschooler was going, the question took me by surprise. I realized that Georgia hadn't nursed once that week, or the week before. In fact, I couldn't remember if she'd nursed in the past month. At that moment, I realized that she had reweaned herself, and that our nursing relationship was now completed.

So, after yet another crying session with Georgia laden with anger and frustration, I asked her if she wanted to nurse. At once, her tears stopped, and she nodded. The baby was napping, so the time was right to give unweaning a try. We settled on the couch and I cradled her in my arms. Her shoulders relaxed, her face softened, and she nursed. Automatically, her hand went up to my hair, just as it always had.

My baby and I have our second bout with thrush and this time it is so painful for me that I just can't possibly nurse her until I feel better.
We both started meds this evening and I have given her all my pumped milk-almost.
I tried pumping a few hours ago, and I did, but it was so bad there was blood dripping into the milk and my nipples are so sore, even pumping kills me.
My question is, what happens if i give her some of the formula I got from the hospital as a sample, just for tonight, so I can recover?
Will it make her sick? Should I use the soy or the regular Lipil/Iron kind?
I nursed my other kids and never gave any formula, so I don 't know what to do?
Will my milk dry up if she gets formula for half a day or maybe even a full day (If I can't bear to pump or nurse?)
Will her poop get all gross, will it go back to normal?
I am freaking out, I can't imagine giving her formula-but I just don't know what else to do!

UW-Madison Fined for Cruelty to Cats and More
Update: The USDA has fined UW-Madison more than $35,000 for seven separate violations of the Animal Welfare Act, including the incident in which the cat Broc was negligently and severely burned by UW staff during surgery. Broc has "lived" in a cage at UW-Madison for 12 years and is still there.
Originally posted March 18, 2013
Following a complaint filed by PETA, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has confirmed the group's allegations of the abuse of cats in taxpayer-funded brain experiments at the University of Wisconsin–Madison (UW), where actor James Cromwell was arrested during a protest last month. The USDA also cited UW for violating federal animal-protection laws by burning a cat named Broc so badly that she required surgery.
In a scathing report just obtained by PETA, a federal inspector found "a pattern of recurring infections" and that all the cats whom PETA profiled in its complaint had been "diagnosed with chronic infections" after having steel posts screwed into open wounds on their heads and metal coils implanted into their eyes.
The USDA noted that some cats, including Slinky, have died because of these infections and that one cat named NJ even had to have her eye removed after the metal coil became the site of frequent serious infections.
The government report includes never-before-seen photographs of NJ, Broc, and the five other mutilated cats who are still alive in the laboratory. We now know the faces of the other victims of this laboratory besides Double Trouble.
All these new revelations confirm what PETA has reported publicly: UW tortures animals and has been twisting the truth. Even though they knew it wasn't true, in interviews and statements, UW representatives have repeatedly claimed that the government had not substantiated any of PETA's allegations and that the university hadn't been cited for its abuse of cats. In fact, during the same period in which it was claiming that it had been cleared, UW was trying in vain to appeal the government's citation.
What You Can Do
The cats in UW's labs are suffering miserably, and they don't have time for more evasions, excuses, or deceptive spin. Please urge the University of Wisconsin System Board of Regents to put an immediate halt to these cruel experiments.
Commenting is closed.
please let the cats live a live without pain
I have wrotte to the University of Wisconsin to end cruel experiments on cats, I hope my letter was polite and fair. This has to end.
Universities have become places of martyr and abuse to innocent animals/living souls with feelings and anxieties!Shame on this university of Wisconsin.Shame on the teachers/students who never speak up for these babies.Karma will find you.

The Writing Center offers hour-long appointments and is open Sunday-Friday during the academic year.
Check our online schedule for specific appointment times.
Whether you're just starting a writing assignment or fine-tuning your
senior thesis, we are here to help you. The Writing Center can support
your writing in any discipline.
As talented as our tutors are, we cannot resolve every issue with
your writing in a single session. Through focusing tutoring sessions on a
specific objective, we can use each session to advance your
semester-long goal of becoming a better writer. Here are some
suggestions for constructive session goals:
To maximize your time with your tutor, we stress that you bring your
assignment materials, including the assignment itself and relevant
books, to each session.
You may make a maximum of one appointment per day and two appointments per week. All appointments are one-hour long.
Arrive on time to your session. If you are 5 minutes
late, we consider your appointment missed, and we will offer your session to
another student.
You may cancel your appointment online before your
session. If you need to cancel, please do so 24 hours in advance. If you miss two appointments, without canceling in
advance, in one semester, you will not be able to make Writing Center
appointments for the remainder of the semester.
Students should be aware that they will be offered an anonymous
post-session evaluation form to complete at the end of each appointment.
We have these policies because our tutoring sessions are limited, and we want to help as many people as possible.

We Dig Barre: Signal work is tweakedJuly 15,2013
On July 11, traffic signal engineers and traffic signal technicians were on site to evaluate the current timing plans and make minor adjustments. They also addressed ongoing problems with phases such as left turns being skipped. Recommendations will be made to the signal design engineer which may be implemented. Some of the field changes produced immediate improvements in traffic flow. Hopefully you have noticed the improvements, too. We appreciate your input and information concerning the signals and some of the problems that have been ongoing.
As with any job, there are punch-list items, and these are the activities that you see occurring at random times. As long as the advance warning construction signs are in place, know that you may encounter a construction activity at any time. Notice will be given in advance whenever possible. Luck Brothers Inc. is not on site on a regular basis at this point.
Please continue to pay attention to traffic signs, advanced warning signs, uniformed traffic officers, and flaggers who will be posted at strategic locations for traffic control. There is still the possibility of a minor delay from time to time.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding the Barre "Big Dig," you can call (518)-578-9629 or contact me by email at email@example.com. The office number is (802)-479-5775.

Need Help Re. Custom Maps for Android Phones
2/15/13 UPDATE: See annotations in RED below.
I am still interested in supplying some select custom map KML/KMZ files for Garmin and other compatible GPS devices (likely for free). (See Hoosier's related thread "GPS Custom Maps.") But to better see the results of my iterations, I will need to buy me a handheld.
But first, I would like to see what capabilities exist for creating custom topo GPS maps for Android phones to help me up the learning curve. At this stage all I have is Verizon's VZ Navigator app (vznavigator.com) which came with the Droid Razr. It appears VZ Navigator is not capable of importing custom maps of any type.
After many goes at it in Google, here is an app I found that looks to have promise:
BackCountry Navigator PRO GPS (backcountrynavigator.com).Have downloaded the free BackCountry Navigator Pro Demo version on my Android tablet and phone. (The actual product is $9.95). Looks to be a good app... and now can import KML or GPX files. I haven't mastered that yet, however. User guide is somewhat lacking in this regard. When time permits I will find a forum.
Here's the key point I was looking for:
"You can create your own maps with Mobile Atlas Creator (mobac.sourceforge.net)"This doesn't appear to be necessary now as the custom KMZ/KML maps will be created using JPEGs and Google Earth.
I was just about to download Mobile Atlas Creator when I thought I should ask the much more tech savvy of you if there is knowledge of either of the applications or others you might suggest.
Making Progress
Getting there... I think. Can still use others' input. Please see previous edited post for an update on progress. Thanks. – JF
Uhh. Don't Mind Me...
...I'm just talking to myself. :smile: No, really I have some additional information I could share, but I think it best that I not keep chain-posting here.
I would greatly appreciate any interested in learning and more importantly helping out this geriatric gearhead to chime in.
Thanks, JF
Custom Maps
Hiya JoeFred,
I've been looking at good software for custom offline maps as well, but I get lost very quickly and figured I'd let my favorite cartographer wade through it.
I found something to use until SmokyStreams has a product: I was able to create several maps of the park from multiple tile sets using the FREE android app OruxMaps. There is a map creator built into the application that still has access to online tile sets that were removed from the Mobile Atlas Creator (MOBAC) that I used to make maps for AlpineQuest. This morning I grabbed offline maps from Google Earth, Google Hybrid, Google Maps, Google Terrain, Microsoft Earth, Microsoft Hybrid. I'll keep trying other map sources until the MicroSD card on the phone is full. :smile:
What looks promising for your use is the free desktop app that you can use to make calibrated maps, the page says you can use this to:
and also the links page for other tools:
Good stuff, Matt. I will be checking out "Mobile Atlas Creator" in more detail and having my first go at "OkMap" (one of the OruxMaps links) which looks promising. You were wise to seek out desktop apps for me as a PC/Mac and a large monitor are essential in dealing with remote protected areas such as the Smokies. There is no such thing as too many pixels when it comes to isolating on two or three forested ridges surrounded by dozens of similar looking ones in the satellite images. From this exercise I have gained a whole new appreciation for fingerprint forensics and palm reading.
Keep up the good work, and if you need it, I'll mail you a couple of dollars to put toward your getting a larger memory card. :smile:

A former Jefferson County sheriff's sergeant has been bound over for trial on theft and misconduct charges.
A criminal complaint says Timothy Madson filled out multiple expense reports as supervisor of the Jefferson County Drug Task Force from 2003 to 2011. It says Madson received more than $20,000 in reimbursement from task force funds. The complaint says he sought reimbursement for work performed by other officers he supervised on the task force. Madson was in charge of approving those expense claims.
A conviction on the theft charge could send Madson to prison for ten years. A conviction for misconduct in public office is punishable by a maximum 3 1/2 years in prison.
The state Department of Justice investigated the case.

Consolidated Grant to the Insular Areas
Program Description
This program allows the Insular Areas (the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands) to apply for two or more eligible State administered formula grant programs under one application, and to choose how to allocate funds among programs within the consolidated application. In general, consolidated grant funds are used to improve teaching and learning by encouraging greater cross-program coordination, planning, and service delivery, while enhancing integration of programs with educational activities carried out with State and local funds. The consolidated grant is designed to minimize the burden caused by existing application and reporting procedures for certain eligible grant programs. The Insular Areas do not compete, but rather, submit one application – on an annual basis – for any two or more eligible programs. The amount of the consolidated grant is the sum of the allocations the Insular Area receives under each of the grant programs included in the application if there had been no consolidation.
Type of Projects
Once an insular area identifies two or more eligible programs to consolidate, they must decide under which one or more of the consolidated programs they will appropriate funds to in order to carry out program activities. The Insular Areas may only use and administer funds received under a consolidated grant to carry out eligible programs included in the consolidation and use those funds for any of the authorized purposes of that program or programs.
There are 11 Department of Education programs eligible for consolidation. Ten of these programs are located in the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education, and are authorized under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, as amended. The one remaining program is located in the Office of Career, Technical, and Adult Education . These programs include:
Office of Elementary and Secondary Education
- Title I, Part A – LEA Grants
- School Improvement Grants
- English Language Acquisition State Grants
- Improving Teacher Quality State Grants
- 21st Century Community Learning Centers
- Title V, Part A - Innovative Programs
- State Assessments
- Education for Homeless Children and Youth
- Mathematics and Science Partnerships
- Rural and Low-Income School Program
The Office of Career, Technical, and Adult Education
- Career and Technical Education – Basic State Grants Program authorized by the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act.

|→ Offer ends in
As night set in over the city of San Francisco, our group was making their way to meet with the Aperture Academy team of instructors.
No only was it getting dark, but it was also getting foggy — a rare winter fog was setting in due to an unusual weather pattern in progress. This was good and bad...bad that our first stop at the Golden Gate Bridge was hampered by too much fog but good because fog reflects back the city lights and brings a lot of drama to the night sky.
After orientation and introductions, we headed to our first stop, the Palace of Fine Arts. The fog created nice patterns above the glowing dome, and the water in the pond was reflecting the Palace perfectly. It was some of the best conditions we've seen at this location. Everyone setup and we spent an hour shooting the Palace, and learning how to adjust aperture and shutter speed to capture a well exposed, sharp photograph. We also worked with white balance to get the best representation of color possible, so that our images matched what we saw with our eyes.
From the Palace, we loaded up into the van and headed off to the "crookedest" street in the world...Lombard Street. This is such a fun stop, and a great place to learn how to capture motion from car lights as they streak past down the winding brick roadway. We worked many different angles and compositions and ended up at the top of the street shooting down hill, with Coit Tower and the Bay Bridge in the distance. If you've never seen this view before, you're really missing out!
As the night drew on, the fog began to lift and visibility for the Bay Bridge was looking really, really good. We again loaded up the group and headed further into the city. After a quick snack and bathroom break, we made our way down to the Embarcadero and one of the most scenic and icon locations in the world...the Bay Bridge from the Ferry Building.
The fog was perfect above the bridge and had a nice pattern to it, glowing with the ambient light from the city. We framed up our compositions with some old concrete piers in the foreground and put the span of the bridge across the top of our viewfinders.
Hard to believe, but midnight snuck up on us, fast! Everyone had a camera full of images but since a few yawns were being seen, we packed up and headed back to the parking area to send everyone safely home.
Until next time,
Brian, Stephen, Scott and the rest of the Aperture Academy team!
P.S. If you'd like to join us at one of our workshops, you can find the schedule/sign up here.

I'm so glad that i had signed up for this workshop, SO much of learning filled with fun and life, I would Highly recommended this workshop for Photo Enthusiasts !!
Attention and time spent with each photographer in helping them to read the light and in making them understand the exposure on such a challenging day by Pro coaches (Stephen, Brian & Scott) is amazing and highly appreciated !!
Stephen, Brian & Scott thank you so much
I'm Looking forward for my next workshop with Aperture Academy
Seshan - December 14th, 2010 (12:29am)
An awesome evening of photo shooting in the most romantic city led by knowledgeable and hardworking instructors Stephen, Brian and Scott and with eager-to-learn fellow photo enthusiasts. Don't miss the night owl!
Joe D - December 17th, 2010 (11:18am)
This was my second workshop with the Aperture instructors and as before they do not disappoint. The one on one instruction at each photo location is invaluable. They really make sure everyone gets the direction and advice needed for a great shot while at the same time encouraging your own experimentation with camera settings and composition.
Roxanne Kelley - January 11th, 2011 (2:23pm)
Had SUCH a great time, I love the photos that I took and I had no idea the power of an SLR camera...until now :)
