Proposed law would legalize selling raw milk
BOZEMAN, Mont. - "Come here goaties!" Sue Brown called to her goats. She owns Amaltheia Dairy, and raises and milks goats.
The milk is pasteurized at the factory in Belgrade where the company makes cheese. But when it's milked from the goat and stored in a holding tank on the farm, it's raw and untouched.
"We have people calling us weekly, asking for milk," Brown said. There's a demand for raw milk, she said, and there's many health benefits to drinking it.
Under current law, she can't sell her raw milk. But House Bill 574 would change that. She'd be able to sell raw milk from her farm.
HB 574 also allows small farms to sell products made from raw milk- like yogurt or butter.
Brown's on board with the idea, but said she has a few issues with it.
"There are no rules," she said. The bill doesn't provide regulations for how the raw milk is produced for smaller farms- meaning farms won't have to adhere to any sanitation or handling laws.
Brown said Amaltheia is a Grade A, USDA approved operation- and they follow strict cleanliness protocols at every step of the process.
Otherwise, people could get sick.
She said it starts with how they milk the goats. Amaltheia uses an automatic system to milk their goats. So when the milk comes out of the utter, it doesn't come in contact with the air- preserving the cleanliness of the milk.
"Cleaned, sanitized, and rinsed- everybody has to understand you have to do those three steps if you want it to work," Brown said.
She worries if the law's passed without providing regulations, smaller operations that don't have the proper education and procedures will produce unsafe raw milk and products- and Brown fears it'll give raw milk a bad name.
Brown's friend, Lark Smothermon, wrote and submitted bill amendments.
"I've suggested that a certification/education piece is attached to it- which is doable, affordable for everyone that focuses on milk safety," Smothermon said.
Another amendment prohibits producers from selling products made with raw milk. Smothermon said without the regulations or oversight to enforce regulations- it's just too dangerous to allow.
They both said the bill is a great idea, but they hope the legislature will look at the amendments and approve accordingly.

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Not sure about stunning but I love this quilt because it is the first one I ever made that my son actually liked. He even asked for this one. Yoohoo!!!! It is a OBW that I added applique to.

We are flexible like that. OKAY?
OOPS! This quilt is gorgeous, but I searched for it in Google and discovered the name of it is Costa Maya, not Casa Maya. Love it - Thanks for posting!
[QUOTE=ube quilting;5772028]it is so hard to chose. I never thought i made stunning quilts so i have to look at them with a different eye. Here is what I came up with.
I wanted to chose one that is unusual and a bit of a challenge. I had to go with my favorite too.i have to edit the pic into the post cause of who knows what! here goes.
I am still working on figuring out how to quilt this one. It is one of my favorite patterns.
Any quilting suggestions and ideas would be greatly accepted!
Very easy yet has a complicated appearance. It is all cut from one pieced block. The pattern is called Casa Maya. And I love it. My next one will be in poppy colors!
Being skinny isn't easy, so I gave up and opted for being sexy instead. (aunty acid)
I've only been quilting a short time. But this is the one I'm most proud.
This is the quilt that I am most proud of. I found the pattern on the internet and spent about three weeks putting it together. I quilted it myself on my domestic sewing machine with a stipple, matching thread colors. I love displaying it every Christmas season.
Love them all!
so far all these quilts are teriffic. I've been ooohing and aaaaahing over every one. i hope many more will be posted. A great thread for great quilts!

EAST HAVEN -- A man who left his car after crashing it on Main Street has been located by police and brought to the hospital for his injuries.
Police responded to 200 Main St. Saturday at 5 a.m. and found an unoccupied vehicle that was heavily damaged. Police said the vehicle appeared to have been driven east on Main Street when it left its lane, struck a light pole, traffic control box and the rear portion of 199 Main St. before coming to a stop. Police said the damaged control box caused the traffic light in front of the East Haven Fire Department to stop working.
Information in the vehicle led police to Pedro Reyes, 25, of 75 Saltonstall Parkway, Unit 5C, who admitted to driving the vehicle, police said. He was injured in the accident and needed immediate medical attention and was transported to Yale-New Haven Hospital for further treatment, police said.
No charges have been filed and police are still investigating.

Sturdy, well made rack. Fits two 29er bikes. weight is a bit on the heavier side but not terrible. I like the way the bike straps to the rack with one strap at each of the two wheels and one more strap on the frame down tube. Holds the bike very well. Once you have the tire trays spaced in the correct position, it is very quick to load and unload one or two bikes. Took about 30min to assemble and fit the bikes to the rack. The rack uses a mounting plate that bolts behind the spare tire.

Marilyn A. Michels
Marilyn A. Michels, 90, of Billings, formerly of Miles City, passed away peacefully, surrounded by family on Sunday morning, Dec. 1, 2013.
She was born on May 1, 1923, in Kinnikinnick County, Wis., to Clementine and Jack Niederhauser. She was the third of four siblings, Wilma, Jack and Jerry. The family moved to Medicine Lake, Mont., in 1927. She attended schools in Medicine Lake, and while walking a mile in all kinds of weather, she graduated from Medicine Lake High School in 1941. After high school, she attended Havre Normal School for one year until the war broke out, when she and her sister Wilma traveled to Bremerton, Wash., to work in the shipyards.
She married James W. Michels on April 19, 1944. To their marriage was born three children, Jerry, Kirk and Stephanie. She was blessed to have two grandchildren who meant the world to her. She cared for them from infants all the way through grade school. They thought the world of their grammy and they enjoyed doing many things together.
She loved playing Bridge with her Miles City lady friends, gardening with her mother, golfing, skiing and recreating with her children, and she made the best fried chicken ever. She also enjoyed Saturdays and Sundays watching Grizzly, Bobcat and pro football games with Jerry and Stephanie who would give her play by play action due to her macular degeneration. When her son Kirk would visit, he would bring his guitar and play her song after song, which gave her great joy. She also looked forward to her everyday phone calls with her sister Wilma talking about the Seahawks and the Mariners. They also shared the love of a five o'clock martini, garnished with one of her homemade pickled beans.
She was preceded in death by an infant sister Jacqueline; her father, Jack; her mother, Clementine; her brothers, Jerry and Jack Niederhauser.
She is survived by her sister, Wilma, Seattle, Wash.; James Michels, Miles City, Mont.; sons, Jerry Michels (Kay Lynn), Billings, Mont., Kirk Michels (Connie), Livingston, Mont.; daughter, Stephanie Michels Quammen (Al), and her two beloved granddaughters, Madison and Marias, Billings. She also is survived by two step-granddaughters, Alison and Ashley Quammen, California; and numerous relatives and friends, too many to name.
A memorial service will be held at a future date to be determined. Smith Funeral Chapels is in charge of cremation. Condolences may be sent to Stephanie Michels, 3137 Stillwater Drive, Billings, MT 59102.

The Pulaski Technical College Weatherization Training Center will host a grand opening celebration Oct. 29, at 10 a.m. on the main campus in North Little Rock. The event marks the opening of the new training center and also observes National Weatherization Day.
The event will include tours of the new training center, as well as remarks from U.S. Congressman Vic Snyder; North Little Rock Mayor Patrick Henry Hays; Thomas Green, assistant director of the State Office of Community Services of the Arkansas Department of Human Services; Rose Adams, executive director, Arkansas Community Action Agencies Association; and representatives from Entergy Arkansas, Inc., Centerpoint Entergy and Pulaski Technical College.
Utilizing a $1.2 million U.S. Department of Energy grant, the new Pulaski Technical College Weatherization Training Center will be responsible for providing non-credit training for weatherization installers, auditors and technicians as well as weatherization crew chiefs and other "green" jobs relevant to efficient energy usage. The center will provide green job training for local workers in energy efficiency retrofitting and weatherization services, enabling skilled workers to expand the use of energy efficient practices in the state's homes and businesses.
"The Arkansas Department of Human Services--Weatherization Assistance Program has done weatherization work in Arkansas for many years, and they have been an indispensible partner in this endeavor," said Mary Ann Shope, vice president for economic development at Pulaski Tech. "The new training center will provide our workforce with most up-to-date training available in Arkansas."
Beginning in 2011, Pulaski Tech will work with other state agencies and colleges to train workers across the state with a mobile weatherization training lab equipped with an array of training modules similar to those at the Pulaski Tech site.

text: Not sure if this is a record...but I am amazed at the number of rookie QBs in the playoffs this year. If the season ended today in the NFC you would have Kapernick, RG3, Russell Wilson...not to mention Christian Ponder in his 2nd year In the AFC you have Luck...and not to mention 2nd year guy Dalton..who also made it as a rookie. I know everyone keeps pointing to this big epiphany d coordinators will undergo this offseason to stop this "gimmick" offense. But it is not just about scheme...it is about personell. There used to be a time where you only had 2 or 3 mobile QBs you had to worry about, but the trend is shifting. So teams are going to have to stock pile their roster with the personell to combat this. You can no longer have JUST your starting ILBs with the ability to run and cover...the backups have to have that trait as well. I know everyone wants a pass rushing DE....but these "gimmick" offenses almost negate that with how quickly they get rid of the ball on passing plays and with the threat of the QB to run. The Giants pass rush was non existent against the Skins. The Skins kept them on off balance all day...and they spent more time thinking instead of playing fast. It appears to me the college game has infiltrated the pro game. I remember everyone saying the option would never work in the NFL because of the speed of the pro game. And we have seen it fail. But what has happened is QBs with the abilit to run the option.....AND throw it have seemingly really perplexed NFL defenses. I have not really seen the Redskins stopped all year. And sure...their offense had a bad game or 2...but what team doesn't? Here's hoping Dallas take a well thought out measured approach on how they are going to add talent this offseason. Because like I said, coming up with how to defend this is probably the easy part...having the personell to do it is where it gets really tricky!

|Maytag Model MAV7000AWW purchased 2000
My immediate question is how to remove the inner tub from spindle so I can see what might be lurking below it. Agitator is off, and four bolts underneath have been removed, but tub is stuck tight.
It all started when agitation stopped. An anonymous user reported washer would fill but not agitate. Burning smell reported. Testing determined all other functions (spin, pump, brake, etc) work properly. Motor runs in two directions.
But wait; after washer was tipped up for belt access, hand turning of belt revealed that agitation seemed to work. Application of power proved it true, though now a clanky noise appeared.
It appears something could easily have slipped between inner and outer tubs, which could have jammed the agitation, and made the subsequent noise as well.
Which brings me back to my desire to look under the tub to see what I might find. One option, I guess, would be the unweildy task of turning the whole thing upside down and hope whatever is so noisy rolls out.
I most humbly ask your advice. Should I try the appliance repair version of what in Wisconsin is referred to as "Cow Tipping"? Or is the removal of the inner tub easier than it now seems?
Thank you kindly for your wise advice.

|Unfortunately I see a transmission in your future. You have done everything you need to do to remove the inner tub. If it is stuck, Put agitator back on and fill with hottest water possible (fill with hot till water gets hot, stop, spin out water then fill after line purged) and let it agitate for a minute. The hot water causes the plastic tub collar to expand slightly and should be able to be removed from there.

|Thank you TTH,
I finally did remove the inner tub, following advice from another posting (wiggle and pull hard). I found a staple (heavy duty wire type) lodged in one hole of inner tub that was digging into outer tub, which couldn't have been responsible for my noise or lack of agitation.
Tested the agitation while tub off, and noise still there. Someone called it a "deeper" noise, sort of like an auto bearing problem or rough brake rotors. The machine agitated for a while, then stopped suddenly with a loud clunk. I can get it to agitate again by running spin cycle briefly, but still very noisy agitation.
Your assesment appears to be correct.
Guess I will peruse the site for a good description of transmission replacement to help me decide whether to undertake it myself. The machine is only 6 yrs old and should have another 10 yrs left.
This one appears promising:

|A lot of those units carry a 10 year parts warranty on the transmission. Might want to look at the last page of your use and care to see. You will still owe the labor, but all the parts will be covered.

|Thanks once again. I did notice the warranty last night, fortunately before I cancelled the service call I had scheduled, as a backup, for Monday morning.
Transmission is covered (7 years into 10 yr coverage period), which is good. Technician suggests replacing a seal and brake components, which with labor and service call will come to about $250. Seems reasonable to me, so we had the parts ordered up. Tell me if I should be running fast in the other direction.
I suppose we should expect not much more than another 6 or 7 years out of it. Any suggestions for easing its job for a longer life? I already have a houshold decree to run no rugs or such things in it. Are full loads of everyday laundry too much work for the transmissions in these things? I see the transmission issue mentioned often on this site.
Of course we bought the Maytag for $100 or so over others with the expectation of fewer problems and a decent service life. And it has been a good machine - the only gripes I can point to are the water level slide setting gave out early in its life (won't stay where set), and when load is unbalanced, rather than call someone to help (buzzzzz), it will jump around happily like a 6 year old on a king sized bed. Maybe that's the cause of the transmission problem, you might be thinking, and maybe it is. But it doesn't happen often, and we usually catch it by the 3rd or 4th bounce.
Anyway, thanks for your assistance. I'll post results.

|I can't comment on what the tech found when he was looking at it. The seal and upper bearing is a no brainer, have to replace them when doing the trans. The brake components??????? Depends on what he witnessed. If he is referring to a Thrust Bearing Kit when he mentioned the brake, then yes I agree with that as well. I myself would also be putting a 21002026 snubber ($5 of happiness) since you're in there anyway. Chances are it's worn or will have grease on it by the time he's done.

|I believe the technician plans to replace the brake rotor and lining (1032674) to quiet a slight squeal we hear when the spinning stops. It wasn't anything I would have considered a problem, but my MO on car work is if you're already in there and it's cheap enough, replace it.
Parts other than the transmission (warranted) look like less than $30 or 40, so I assume I'm otherwise paying for a service call (maybe two) and 2 or 3 hours of labor.
What else he plans to replace I am not sure, but I will make certain he replaces the snubber ring. I always ask to see old parts, too, so I can figure what might have caused an issue (and change my habits accordingly).
Which is why I'm curious about what causes the transmission to bust up inside. Any thoughts on how to nurse along the new one to stretch out it's life?
Until we can get a front loader, that is...

I'm glad that her pain is gone.
I'm glad that her pain is gone.
More practice vid:
Daisuke looking very handsome! Mao's lutz is still a flutz but otherwise very nice. And I think her flip was very nice and not under-rotated! Luv that she's looking so healthy and happy!
The thing is if she can really do it, she should have able to landed a dozen of those, not just 1, not after all this time. To bother report landed just 1 triple axels in practice, can you imagine how many failure she has had all these time?
Good news about no more pain, hope she can stay healthy.
one can assume and imagine all one want's too, but in the end what really happens is what matters! and what was reported and filmed was amazing news, I find it really puzzling how some are trying to turn positve news into something negative lol
The only one imagine anything on this board seems to be you to do with hypothetical BVs lol! She really did two? Funny, all I see on the video is they replayed the jump three times, but then I don't understand the Japanese language. The thing is if she can do it, why not bring it? Strategy are for the weak, you should always bring your very best every time you step on the ice.
Japan loves the big tricks, so it doesn't surprise me that they would make a big deal about Mao landing a few 3As in practice. I don't think it hurts to mention it; it means she's still working on it. Of course, that isn't necessarily an indicator that it's competition ready.
For example, there has been reports that Ashley Wagner has been landing 2A-3T + 3F-3T in practices at Skate America and at home, but as she has declined to do them in competition it means it's not quite ready for prime time.
Tell that to Sui Wenjing...strategy are for the smart IMO
EDIT: I believe this is her second 3A: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DjW7-NcVheA

Considering the amount of work JSU has managed to pull all the rules changes in her favour. Minimise GOE scale values therefore reduce the importance of quality across the board for every other lady. Reduce penalties for UR. Reduce penalties for wrong edge which minimize the importance for correct technique. Have a totally separate GOE scale of values just for the tripe axle as well as increase its base values by 0.5 as well as the 3loop. If she doesn't bring it, it would completely waste years of work behind the scenes to ensure the field favours her.
Yes ...strategy should matter but it is also the main difference between a serious performance sport (marked in accordance to performance on the day and treat all competitors equally from ground zero) vs a game sport (made impressions consist of media play and hype over a season, as well as star billing, which certainly does impact human judgement).

Wow, those triple axels were beautiful. She certainly must have kept practicing them; otherwise she wouldn't be able to land them. Both were beautiful with fantastic tight air position. The second one would be given < but the first one would be ratified! That's quite an achievement to land a fully rotated triple axel among the ladies, isn't it? I would love her to give it a shot but I understand she may prefer to go for a clean program without such a risky element.
It was very wise for Tarasova to put that position with the leg above the hip right after the lutz. When landed cleanly with good flow like in the practice video it will make up for the change of edge and Mao will likely get 0's instead of mostly -2's or -1's.
That was gorgeous! I love Mao's air position in those clips. It's much better than it is in her usual triples.

Johnny Segura works on his painting during the Art Battle at Art Walk. (Michelle Higginbotham / American Press)
Last Modified: Thursday, May 02, 2013 1:25 PM
By Alex Onken / American Press
Forget about walks in the park.
The Spring Art Walk took place last week in downtown Lake Charles. Many people from the area came to support local artists. Live music cascaded down Ryan Street. A bit further down the road, dancers from the International Dance Company & Drum Circle performed outside Historic City Hall.
"It's great that it gets people out to downtown. There's new stores and restaurants coming up, so I think that it's great that it gets people out here," said Tracy LeMieux, local artist and student at McNeese State University.
Pottery, jewelry, clothing, paintings, and photographs were among some items being sold. Some artists were creating work on the street as people walked on.
"I do think this will help revitalize downtown. It's very charming here and you can see everyone's very comfortable here just walking around," said Mischelle Jasken, a local artist and proprietor of Pottery by Mischelle.
"This shows people what we have to offer as a city," said Alex Hoffpauir. "We have more than just Cajun food here. I think it's a step in the right direction for downtown."
Many of the local venues opened their doors and offered free food and drink to many passersby. The Gallery of Fine Wines and Spirits offered wine tastings. Pujo Street Café gave out pieces of cake.
Local artists also took place in "art battles" along Ryan Street for both adult artists and children.
"The artists have one hour to make something, and you get voted on by tips, people come by and put them in your bucket," said LeMieux. "Then, you can sell your artwork in a silent auction, your artwork."
"The Art Walk shows that art is alive in this community," said Anna Sprigg, a student at McNeese State University. "It's never out there enough. There is a lot is going on, people just need to be aware of it."
"[Downtown] they're very big on promoting the arts," said Jasken.
Many downtown businesses, such as Pujo Street Café, Stellar Beans Coffee House, 505 Bazaar, Salon Lindsay, among others, opened their doors for artists to show and sell their work. Dharma, a new venue hosted works by McNeese art students. Later in the evening, Patrick Sheng and the McNeese Jazz Combos preformed live.
"This is the first time we've had art at Dharma," said Alyssa DiNatale, co-owner of Dharma. "And it's just the beginning of much more art to come."
"(The Art Walk) it gets rid of the idea that there is nothing to do in Lake Charles," said Sprigg.
"Downtown is no longer dead town," said Justin LeBrun.

Friends in Deer Lodge remember homicide victim
DEER LODGE, Mont. - Charging documents obtained by NBC Montana show Dennis Schowengerdt faces one count of deliberate homicide in connection with the stabbing of his wife Tina.
We went to Deer Lodge to learn more about the couple and spoke with Tina's friends and Powell County Sheriff Scott Howard.
Howard tells us his deputies have shown up at the couple's home on Yellowstone Trail several times, called by neighbors or in some cases Tina herself.
Friends of Tina's we spoke with shared memories of her, about how she helped the community and was a pleasure to be around.
Theresa Hunt know her; she says, "She did a lot of volunteer stuff. She's very sweet and I really liked coming down here and visiting with Tina, mainly because she made you feel comfortable. It is very shocking to hear what happened."
From what we've been able to piece together Tina's life at home wasn't easy.
We asked another friend, Loren Mollenberg, if there were any warning signs.
"Yes and no, I can tell you that. It is a shock. You wouldn't know it by looking at Tina, but she did live with a lot, and that was part of it."
Sheriff Howard says Tina had asked for help from churches and domestic violence shelters several times, and that the couple had separated but were living in the same house.
Dennis Schowengerdt is due back in court on December 18.

We read the description and it is too modest. Surprise! We never expected this really great apartment. Lots of space, nicely furnished and in a great neighbourhood. The terraces are big and quiet, a real treat for tired tourists who want to get the weight of their feet when they return from another day in this great cty.
Susanne as her family was very helpful and communication was working well and she also organised the key with family members. We were in delay arriving by car from Budapest. The apartment is very nice, amazing terraces and comfortable for 4 people. The only thing is if you are 4 people, the couch is not that comfortable for 2 to sleep but the other double bed is very nice. We were asking for 2 set of keys but received only one. Very much to recommend it. I was studying and living in Vienna, so I know the city. For tourists the location is perfect, city center by walking, underground U2 is very near also.
Excellent flat near the center. The apartment is new, clean and the best for a family. It's near the center, you can walk if you want, but you have the u-bahn only 2 minutes walking. The supermarket is 2 minutes too, and lot of places to eat o take a cup. Obviusly, you have an excellent kitchen and bathroom with all that you need.
The flat itself is beautiful, and we could see that Susanne likes decor. The two terraces are fantastic if you want take a cofee outside the flat. Beautiful the wellcome present. In conclusion, i only can say that if you choose Susanne's flat, you are going to have an excellent time in Vienna.
A clean and conveniently located apartment for getting to, from and around Vienna.
I was met by a friend / relative of Susanne and whilst their was a language barrier, we managed to exchange information on facilities nearby and that of the apartment.
The apartment had all that would be required for a self catering break in Vienna.
At check in the apartment was badly cleaned, the owners however organized some cleaning after my complaint. The apartment is in my opinion insufficiently equipped: very old tv, limited nr of programs, very old furniture etc. The terraces are definite advantage, however need better furniture.
This flat is a delightful surprise. It is on the top floor (with lift) which makes it light and airy and it has a really great layout, so that the dining and sitting areas work really well. The kitchen and bathroom are excellent and the whole effect is spacious and clean. Very easy to arrange collection of the keys.
All excellent and confortable, 15 minutes walking from the city center Stephansplatz square. The flat close to metro, 35 minutes from airport with just 4,20 euro ticket. Received perfect indication to join the flat, and everything was ok! Many thanks! indred!
Elio L.
Suzanne's apartment was wonderful. Very well located and comfortable. From the balcony you have a beautiful view. Suzanne and her friend were very attentive and helpful. Thank you for everything. If I go back to Vienna already know where to stay. Highly recommended. ;-)

text: Hello i have a 94 Chevy k1500 and both my driver and passenger windows and doors are screwed up. First off the door themselves the driver door was missing a hinge pin when i bought it and just had a large bolt in in so i replaced that but the door still has difficulty closing sometimes. I need to left up on the door as i close it to get it to latch. Is the door still sagging or what? Also the rubber/plastic armrest does not stay glued to the door and likes to catch on the door frame when it is closed, this happens on both doors. Next the windows, the drivers side is totally f**ked up the regulator is bent al around in wierd positions just to get the window to stay partially up and the slot that is attached to the window where the roller rides back and forth is almost rusted off the window. If i were to replace this how would i get it to stay on the window?(rubber nail or superglue maybe)? so that side i know the problem but the other side looks ok the regulator is fine. I am assuming the problem is the switch/wiring or the motor itself is there an easy way to check this? Thank you for any input you have to give -Dan

Oxford Economics' Global Study Sponsored by SAP Reveals Small and Midsize Firms That Do Business in Six or More Countries Will More Than Double in Three Years
WALLDORF, Germany - SAP AG (NYSE: SAP) and Oxford Economics today announced survey findings by the Oxford Economics research program, sponsored by SAP, that show small and midsize enterprises (SMEs) around the world and across industries are making major changes to their business models, products and go-to-market strategies. SMEs are also competing with larger companies by investing in technology to improve operations and become more efficient. The survey of 2,100 executives from SMEs in 21 countries shows they believe they are equipped to compete with larger firms and have some clear advantages over them. The findings overturn some industry stereotypes of smaller companies as local or regional entities that are largely technophobic. The survey looked at SMEs with an annual turnover of US $20 million–$750 million across the globe.
"The overarching finding of the study was that successful SMEs are going outside of their home market to accelerate growth. And by doing so, they face fierce competition from large multinational corporations and more empowered customers in new markets," said Eric Duffaut, president, Global Ecosystem and Channels, SAP AG. "In their new international or even global landscape, business network and latest technology innovations are more and more required by SMEs to evolve their business models and effectively compete."
Important findings from the research include:

Jerry Brown Jr., a member of the Dallas Cowboys practice squad, was killed Saturday morning in an accident. Brown was the passenger in a car being driven by Josh Brent, top, the starting nose tackle of the Cowboys. (Associated Press)
Last Modified: Monday, December 10, 2012 6:45 PM
By Jim Gazzolo / American Press
The NFL has a drinking problem.
Actually, it is more like a drinking and driving problem.
In a league where player protection has taken center stage, pro football officials seem more than a little two-faced when it comes to the subject.
On the field, rules are being changed rapidly in an attempt to keep players from getting injured. Safety has become such a concern that how the game is played has even been altered.
The Saints have been targeted by the league as the scapegoat for overzealous violence. Rarely is contact even allowed during a pro practice.
Getting players off the field safely seems to be the league's biggest priority. Getting them home safely clearly is not.
Jerry Brown Jr. is the latest proof of that.
A member of the Dallas Cowboys practice squad, Brown was killed Saturday morning in another senseless accident. One that could have, in fact should have, been avoided.
Brown was the passenger in a car being driven by Josh Brent, the starting nose tackle of the Cowboys who was a teammate of Brown's at the University of Illinois.
Brent was allegedly driving his car while drunk. He has been arrested and release on $500,000 bond.
You would think his pro career was the least of his worries, but history shows us a DUI hardly slows you down in the NFL's fast lane.
In this year alone, 14 other NFL players have been arrested on drunken-driving charges. Only one was cut by his team because of that fact. He later found a job with another club.
Drinking and driving may not mix, but they have become a dangerous pattern in the world of professional football.
Yet, the league seems more interested in taking away kickoffs to keep players healthy than their keys when needed.
It should be noted here that the union has a policy that allows for players to get rides home when they are out drunk. Sad part is, not enough seem to be using it.
This from a league where guys can not only afford a phone call or taxi, but easily have the financial ability to ride around in a limo when out on the town.
You would think after the past players would have learned. At least they should have learned.
That sad part of all this is how the league proclaims its players to be role models. Yet while steroids and other drugs can get you suspended, drinking and driving doesn't.
Remember back before the second game of this season, Atlanta Falcons star back Michael Turner celebrated his team's win by getting arrested for driving under the influence? The league didn't even blink an eye. Turner played the next week against the San Diego Chargers.
Granted, Turner's arrest was different from most of the other problems in the league for his game during the season. But, the issue is still the game. The league turns a blind eye to the drunk driving problems of its players.
What makes the league look even worse is that the players don't seem to understand the gravity of either their actions or their words.
Just days before the Brown tragedy, Minnesota Vikings linebacker Chad Greenway stuck his cleats in his over-sized mouth.
Greenway was trying to be clever when he asked Vikings fans to be "super-duper drunk" when they came to the Metrodome for last Sunday's division showdown with the Chicago Bears.
"Yeah, I would say morning drinking," Greenway said, according to the Minneapolis Star Tribune. "Why not? You could pull an all-nighter. Then you'd have the drunk, tired guys who will really be obnoxious."
Greenway only wanted Vikings to be loud and crazy to help his team beat Chicago. But, you have to believe some fools took him to heart and said the club needs me. Then, they still have to drive home.
To his credit, Greenway said later in the week he went a little "too far" and hoped everybody took his words as they were intended, "tongue-in-cheek."
Maybe it was just bad timing. But, Greenway's words show that despite the previous issues the league has had with its players and drinking there are many who still don't get it.
You would hope that the players and league might at least learn from the latest tragedy in Dallas, but you don't know. Nobody seemed to learn from the Leonard Little incident.
Little, a player for the St. Louis Rams, left a party in 1998 and crashed into and killed a woman. He tested above the legal limit for intoxication in Missouri and was convicted of manslaughter. He received four years probation and 1,000 hours of community service.
He was suspended eight games by the league, mainly because of the conviction.
Later in his career he would sign two huge contract extensions with the Rams, making him rich beyond belief. He would help the Rams win a Super Bowl and play in another.
In 2004, while still in the league, Little would be arrested again and for driving under the influence. He reportedly told police he had been drinking. He was convicted of misdemeanor speeding but acquitted of DWI.
Little was sentenced to two years' probation on May 6, 2005, but played in all 16 games for the Rams in 2004.
So, this is not a new problem in the league. It is one officials have had time to explore and work on.
The lesson to players and fans seems to be as long as you can still play it's OK to party.
In a league where the shield is to be protected at all costs, it seems the NFL has dropped the ball when it comes to drunk driving.

2005 SA Movies Page Updates
GTA: San Andreas - Website Updates | @ 11:16 PM MDT | By rappo
I saw the movies page of our San Andreas section going to waste and I thought, "Why not upload stunt videos to it?" So, that's just what we'll do! I created two new sections of the movies page - one to view uploaded stunt videos and the other to submit your own videos. Keep in mind that this submission form is not an upload area (although that might be implemented later)! There are links in the submission form to places where you can freely upload large files like videos. So happy stunting, and happy submitting!
Right now the only stunt video up is Ramboy's "Licensed to Stunt". The collection will hopefully grow quickly. Until then, enjoy Ramboy's video, which is also featured in the screenshot you see above.
UPDATE: I've added a new movie by Woozietrs titled 2 Wheeler Anarchy.

This new series expands on the foundation of the 10 happiness principles we covered in the happiness audit. It's called habits of happiness and it's a natural next step from the principles we have already discussed. Our habits are SO important. We literally are our habits. Our life is a manifestation of the habits we keep as we are what we repeatedly do.
Habits are woven through every moment of our waking life: The habit of being on time.
The habit of drinking plenty of water. Or wine. The habit of listening well. The habit of talking over others. The habit of avoiding conflict. The habit of kissing our partner good morning. The habit of working late. The habit of doing everything for everyone. The habit of walking the dog each morning. Habits. Habits. Habits.
We are all a multitude of habits. Some are working for us, and others may be old, or outdated, or just plain unhelpful.
Change can be hard to make in life. We get settled in our comfort zone, and even though we may not be that happy much of the time, there is much comfort in familiarity.
Moving towards creating a happier life and being the person we want to be requires change and a conscious shift out of that comfort zone. That change can be hard to sustain. The reason for this is that we often try to make change using willpower alone. Willpower is a finite resource and eventually it runs out. We join the gym with the intention of going four times a week for an hour each time as we want to be this fitter, thinner healthier version of ourselves. And for the first few weeks, while the willpower reserves are high, we do it.
Then, before long a stressful day with a few unexpected chores or issues crops up and we miss our session. And then the next day is "too busy" And before we know it that gym membership is something we see only once a month on the bank statement. Our willpower, although a force to be reckoned with, is often not enough to make lasting change stick and we slip back into comfortable old habits.
Making change that lasts is far more powerful when we look at developing a series of positive habits or rituals. Think about cleaning your teeth for example. That is a positive health ritual in your life that requires no effort: it's an automatic part of your day. No willpower involved and it happens twice a day, every day, no matter what. That's the sort of ease and effortlessness that we want to tap into.
Effective change is more often than not a thousand small choices, not one big decision. To create the life you want you need to exercise these muscles of making small positive choices and consciously examine our habits. We are going to examine a different habit of happiness each week, so you have a bite-sized happiness takeaway each week.
Something to think about, something to try, something to learn, something to do. We are going to layer tiny change on tiny change to build momentum that propels you forward to a life you absolutely love!
I recommend you buy yourself a journal or notebook to keep some notes of your journey in. I will also be creating some worksheets and checklists for you as we go along that you will be able to get from my website positivebalance.co.nz to support your journey. You just need to sign up for the newsletter list so you are in the loop.
We are going to explore in depth the following areas as we move forward each and every week to a more fulfilled, connected, simpler and happier life.
1. Blitz limiting beliefs
2. Create a compelling vision of what you want
3. Develop body love
4. Declutter inside and out
5. Practice emotional honesty
6. Know and love who you are
7. Cherish consciously chosen relationships
8. Develop resilience and radiate positive energy
9. Manage time like a ninja
10. Get clean with money
11. Do what you love
12. Take action make change!
So, commit to yourself, and continue the journey with me with the habits of happiness.
Action step
Buy yourself a pretty journal or workbook that you can make notes in as we work through this series.

Bozeman School District lays out possible boundary changes
BOZEMAN, Mont. - On Monday night, Superintendent Rob Watson and Deputy Superintendent Steve Johnson explained to more than a dozen Irving Elementary School parents what's possible for realigning the school boundaries.
"We wanted to look at all our boundaries and decide which students would go to the new school, but also look at our boundaries and decide which schools are overcrowded" Superintendent Watson said.
He said it comes down to who will go to the new elementary, but also how to alleviate current overcrowding issues at certain schools- like Morning Star and Emily Dickinson.
There are four main options the district is considering. These recommendations came out of a Boundary Realignment Committee, made up of parents and school officials. Over the course of their two January meetings, they looked at how construction of the new elementary impacts current boundaries- and what the current school capacities look like.
"All of the options show different ways where more students could move into Irving" Watson said, during the presentation.
In other words, the plan doesn't call for anyone to be transferred away from Irving, but more kids could be heading there.
"We live on 4th, which right now is the eastern boundary of Irving school district" said parent Suzi Taylor. "I'm interested if it moves. If it moves to Wilson, would we have new neighbors who go to Irving?"
She said if they extend the boundary from 4th to Wilson, she'd be excited to have other kids in her neighborhood attend the same school her kids do.
"I think that makes a big difference whether the kids who go to the school are from the neighborhood" she said.
But Taylor said she can see why the boundary realignment is concerning to some, especially for kids who might have to switch schools.
"A lot of families will experience change, and that's difficult" Taylor said. "You get really invested in the school you attend."
Superintendent Watson said 5th graders wouldn't have to move. And some parents could request for their kids to stay at their schools.
"I'm very interested in the middle school boundary issues" said parent Jeanne Korn.
She wanted to know how the boundary realignment would affect which middle school kids attend. The district said there have to equal out those boundaries, but would only do so for incoming students.
The school board is expected to decide on which of the four options they'll go with on March 4th. Those new boundaries would take effect in the fall of 2014.
The meeting at Irving Elementary Monday night was the first of several meetings the district will hold. They'll meet at Morning Star on Wednesday, February 6th at 6 pm; Emily Dickinson is Friday, February 8th at 2 pm; Tuesday, February 12th at 6 pm will be at Hyalite; and Longfellow's meeting is Wednesday, February 13th at noon.
Whittier and Hawthorne elementary schools will not be included in the meetings because there are no proposed boundary changes for those schools.

Here's a question that is puzzling me.
If you had a small cell hive, regressed to 4.9mm and you wanted to split it, do you need a small cell queen?
Or could you buy any queen from a reputable supplier and introduce her?
Would I have to raise a small cell queen from that stock...or allow them to produce a queen using an emergency cell?

Making reload! work in Pry with Rails 3.2
As of Pry 0.9.7.4 (the current version according to Bundler at the
time I write this), the setup instructions for replacing irb with Pry
when you run
rails console no longer work fully in Rails 3.2.
Specifically, the Rails team have changed the way they create irb
commands like
reload!: where in earlier version they were added to
Object, now they are added to
IRB::ExtendCommandBundle to avoid
polluting the global namespace. Here's the github pull request where the change is described.
(The cynic here will say "Rails? Namespace pollution? Lost cause, mate", but hey, let's not be down on attempts to make it better)
IRB already knows how to look in
IRB::ExtendCommandBundle; Pry
doesn't, so what will happen if you have installed Pry in the usually
by assigning
IRB=Pry is you'll get an error that
doesn't exist.
(I've seen 'fixes' for this bug that assign
Pry::ExtendCommandBundle=Pry. This will make
rail console start,
but it still doesn't make the commands accessible. Less than
entirely useful then)
So, let's make it. Here's the relevant bit of my
.pryrc: feel free
to use as inspiration, but don't blame me if copy/paste doesn't work
if Kernel.const_defined?("Rails") then require File.join(Rails.root,"config","environment") require 'rails/console/app' require 'rails/console/helpers' Pry::RailsCommands.instance_methods.each do |name| Pry::Commands.command name.to_s do Class.new.extend(Pry::RailsCommands).send(name) end end end
If you are using a newer version of Pry than me – well, first off,
they may have fixed this already and if so you can ignore this whole
post. But if they haven't, and if
Pry::Commands.command is giving
you trouble, note that the unreleased Pry 0.9.8 is set to include a
new way of defining custom commands and you may need to rewrite this
using the new
Pry::Commands.block_command construct instead.

Sustainability Assessment for Wallcoverings
- Overview
- Benefits of Certification
- Why Work With NSF Sustainability?
- Certification Process
NSF/ANSI 342: Sustainability Assessment for Wallcovering Products is the foremost standard to evaluate and certify the sustainability of wallcovering products across their entire life cycle. The standard covers materials such as textiles, vinyl, alternative polymer (or vinyl- or alternative polymer-coated), paper and other natural fiber products. NSF/ANSI 342 was developed by the NSF National Center for Sustainability Standards (NCSS) through a consensus-based public process with a multi-stakeholder group.
The NSF/ANSI 342 standard assigns point values to prerequisite requirements and elective criteria in a number of categories. Unique to this standard is the requirement to combine points from both the manufacturer and distributor to determine the certification level as Conformant, Silver, Gold or Platinum. Each organization is responsible for its own rating and applies for evaluation individually.
Manufacturers are evaluated on categories including:
- Raw material inputs
- Indoor air quality
- Product recyclability
- Energy use
Distributors must follow environmentally-preferable practices in areas including:
- Product distribution
- Recycling infrastructure support
- Waste minimization
- Corporate governance
To learn more about the standard, download the NSF/ANSI 342 wallcoverings brochure. For more information on certification to NSF/ANSI 342 or to request a quote, call +1 734.476.2543 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.
To purchase a copy of the NSF/ANSI 342 standard, visit the NSF Bookstore. For more information about the standard or the standards development process, call +1 734.913.5774 or email email@example.com.
Benefits of Certification
NSF certification offers wallcovering manufacturers and distributors the potential to increase their competitive edge and unique branding opportunities in the green marketplace. NSF/ANSI 342 certification also gives customers such as architects and designers a way of identifying and comparing sustainable products.
NSF/ANSI 342 certification allows you to:
- Distinguish your "green" products from your competitors', making you a preferred vendor to those seeking sustainable solutions
- Meet state and federal procurement guidelines for more sustainable products
- Achieve the most credible type of certification available in the marketplace
- Save money by adopting more sustainable operational practices and business approaches
Certification is based on point totals from both the manufacturer and distributor to achieve Conformant, Silver, Gold or Platinum level for individual products. Manufacturers that are members of the Wallcoverings Association (WA) are authorized to use the WA NSF 342 mark while nonmembers are authorized to use the NSF Sustainability Certified mark on both their products and for advertising purposes.
To learn more about the standard, download the NSF/ANSI 342 wallcoverings brochure.
Why Work With NSF Sustainability?
With nearly 70 years of laboratory testing, product reviews, validation and technical excellence, NSF is a preferred third-party certification body for businesses and organizations. We know the requirements and intent behind all the NSF/ANSI 342 criteria and can guide you through the certification process to achieve cost-effective, reliable and consistently high quality results.
We are also a leading worldwide third-party registrar for ISO 14001, ISO 9001 and OHSAS 18001, and we provide social accountability audits and greenhouse gas verification services. With our large network of international auditors, we can conduct audits in over 100 countries and provide you with global market access for your products and services.
Certification Process
We certify products to sustainable standards using a simple six-step process:
- Your company completes the application process and submits signed documents to NSF.
- With our guidance, your company submits documentation for an off-site document review.
- We conduct an off-site documentation review and provide feedback and data analysis prior to the on-site audit.
- We conduct an on-site audit of the manufacturing facility(s).
- Once all follow up is complete, we grant certification and list your certified products on the NSF website.
- We schedule annual surveillance audits and notify you of recertification.
Note: Certification of a wallcovering product is only met through compliance of both a manufacturer and a distributor.
Our experts can help you reduce overall costs and expedite your time to market by bundling services, which can reduce the number of contracted service providers and required facility audits.

Former President Bill Clinton urges Americans to reelect President Obama
Former President Bill Clinton rocked the house Wednesday night at the Democratic National Convention, in Charlotte, North Carolina. He smiled and waved as he strode toward the podium to deliver the evening's address. In a speech that lasted nearly an hour, he forcefully made the case for why Americans should reelect the President and Vice President.
"The most important question is: what kind of country do you want to live in?" Clinton said. "If you want a country of shared opportunities and shared responsibility—a 'we're-all-in-this-together' society—you should vote for Barack Obama and Joe Biden."
Throughout Clinton's speech, the crowd at the Time Warner Cable Arena clapped, laughed and cheered. They chanted, "Four more years! Four more years!"
When it was over, President Obama joined President Clinton onstage at the Time Warner Cable Arena. The two men hugged and shook hands. President Obama waved at the crowd. Supporters were on their feet, holding American flags in the air.
Making It Official
At the end of the night, more than 5,000 delegates from the 50 states, Washington, D.C. and five territories recorded their votes for the party's nominee in the Democratic roll call.
Tonight, Obama and Vice President Biden are scheduled to formally accept their party's nomination at Time Warner Cable Arena. Originally, the President's speech was to be delivered at nearby Bank of America Stadium, a venue able to accommodate more than 70,000 people. But the threat of bad weather forced a move to the smaller site.

Orlando Magic star Dwight "Superman" Howard is getting animated (literally!) for the Season 2 premiere of Disney XD's animated series Kick Buttowski—Suburban Daredevil. The popular cartoon follows Kick Buttowski, an elementary school kid who aspires to be the greatest daredevil the world has seen. On April 30, Howard guest stars as the voice of Kick's idol, mega movie star Rock Callahan. Watch a scene from the premiere above.
In the episode, "Mow Money," Kick and his sidekick Gunther compete against each other in a grass-cutting competition. The winner gets to buy the last remaining ticket to see Rock live onstage. TFK Kid Reporter Rachel Smith spoke with Howard about his cool new role, and if he sees more voice work in his future.
Is Rock Callahan similar to you in any way?
Yes. Rock is Kick's role model; Kick looks up to Rock, because he can do everything; act, sing and fly. That is very similar to me. I've been blessed with a lot of different talents, and I try to use those talents like Rock does. However Rock's biggest talent is being a role model for a lot of kids and I do that also.
Is it bizarre to hear your voice on Rock Callahan's cartoon body?
It is. After watching the episodes and going over all the lines I've done in the past it's just like wow this is really me doing this while the cartoon something that I've only dreamed about, it's pretty cool.
When you were a kid similar to Kick did you also want to be a daredevil?
I did! I would be at home and jump off a dresser pretending it was a big building or something. I would also be swinging off tress in the back yard while wearing a cape. I thought I was a real superhero. I can also see myself in Kick, because I was a lot like him when I was his age.
Would you like to do more voice over work in the future?
I would love to do voice over work in the future. Acting is another thing I would like to do. I don't want to be known as just the basketball player. By doing other things in life, I can show kids that we are all blessed with a lot of talents.
How much input did you have in the creation of Rock Callahan?
When I first saw an image of Rock, he was kind of skinny. Then they made him look like me. For the most part, he doesn't really look like a basketball player, but he looks like the type of guy who can do a lot of things.
What were your favorite cartoons growing up?
Under Dog! Tom & Jerry, also, but sometimes I couldn't figure it out, because they were just running around!

That's not to count the one and only Hugh Hefner along with PMOY 2013 Raquel Pomplun, Playmates Hiromi Oshima, Val Keil and Alyssa Arce, and fan favorite Cybergirl Dani Mathers.


text: Had this thought last night while in the shower (don't ask). Ok, it was after a removal job where I took a few stings, so I was nursing my wounds. I've read of eating garlic products to repel mosquitoes just by your body odor. Don't know of the validity, as I've never tried it. But I wonder, would the same thing, or something similar, possibly discourage bees from wanting to land on/sting you? Just an odd thought, has anyone read of or heard of anything like this?
