Treatment Programs
We delve under the surface into the complex issues that contribute to addictive and self-defeating patterns. Whether you're struggling with emotional trauma, grief or loss, addiction, depression or anxiety, eating disorders or intimacy disorders, we have a highly effective treatment program that addresses everything that stands between you and lifelong recovery.
12-Step Alternative
While the 12-Step approach is widely known and utilized in addiction treatment programs, there are highly effective alternatives for people who prefer a different approach. Twelve-Step recovery is only one of several validated treatments for alcohol and drug addiction. Learn More
Addiction Treatment
Elements Behavioral Health is a premier provider of evidence-based addiction treatment. Our programs address not only the addiction, but also underlying issues that may have precipitated or reinforced drug abuse. Elements has the distinction of being led by board-certified addiction psychiatrist Dr. David Sack, who ensures our treatment programs provide exceptional care. Learn More
Alcohol and Drug Detox
Detox is the first step in recovery. Our alcohol and drug detox services combine exceptional medical care and evidence-based medications and approaches with a comforting, welcoming setting and treatment that considers physical, emotional and spiritual needs. Clients don't merely eliminate substances from their bodies, they begin uncovering the issues that underlie addiction and develop a strong foundation for the next phase of recovery. Learn More
Alcohol Rehab
Alcohol may be more socially acceptable than street drugs, but it is still a drug. Study after study shows the harmful effects of alcohol abuse, including liver disease, brain shrinkage, high blood pressure and certain cancers. Going to alcohol rehab at the first signs of a problem and staying sober can protect the brain and body against potentially permanent damage. Learn More
Christian Drug Rehab
At the intersection of faith and recovery is Christian drug rehab. Our Christian addiction program combines traditional substance abuse treatment with Christian-centered therapy, regular church attendance and Bible study. In fellowship with other Christians, you can learn the skills for lasting recovery while healing the emotional, physical and spiritual wounds left by drug abuse. Learn More
Compulsive Gambling
Compulsive gambling affects about 5 percent of the population, or around 15 million people. If we include those who are at the threshold between problem gambling and gambling addiction, that percent may increase to as much as 30 percent of the population, or up to 40 million people. Learn More
Drug Rehab
From our authentic ranch setting near Nashville to our luxury rehab in Malibu, Elements' family of drug rehab centers offers sophisticated treatment in some of the country's most inspiring locations. Under the care of leading addiction and mental health experts, clients benefit from tailored treatment plans and an ideal blend of traditional and holistic therapies that honor each individual's needs and goals. Learn More
Dual Diagnosis Treatment
Although many addiction programs claim to provide dual diagnosis treatment, rarely is this service integrated into the treatment plan from the beginning. An exceptional program will develop personalized treatment plans that address all underlying issues fueling an addiction, such as anxiety, depression or trauma. Dual diagnosis treatment must be a primary part of the approach to recovery, not simply an ancillary treatment option. Learn More
Eating Disorder Treatment
We have developed a unique eating disorder treatment program for those who need therapeutic and clinical support but do not need to be in a hospital. In a beautiful home surrounded by an authentic ranch setting, equine therapy is just one of the powerful methods we use to help our clients with bulimia, anorexia or binge eating disorder. Learn More
First Responders Trauma Workshop
Police officers, military, firefighters and others in the line of danger often experience life-altering physical and mental distress from the aftermath of trauma. Our six-day First Responders Trauma Workshop helps clients address the impact of exposure to danger, conflict, stress and tragedy and develop healthy coping skills to apply in their lives and profession. Learn More
Mood & Personality Disorders
Depression, anxiety and personality disorders can seriously disrupt your life and undermine your ability to be happy and productive. We address these issues in some of the most dynamic and healing environments possible such as in the hills of Malibu overlooking the Pacific Ocean or in an authentic ranch setting where nature, wildlife and horses are all part of the healing process. Learn More
Professionals Addiction Treatment
We provide specialized treatment for doctors, attorneys and other professionals struggling with substance use and mental health disorders. From three-day assessments to inpatient drug rehab for professionals, clients have a range of options to meet their needs. Our professionals programs offer an exceptional level of one-on-one counseling, small client populations, evidence-based therapies and profession-specific programming. Learn More
Sexual Addiction Treatment
Sex addiction can take many forms – online infidelity, seeking out prostitutes, pornography addiction – but the underlying issues are the same. People suffering from sexual addiction can't or don't know how to get their emotional needs met in healthier ways. In addition, the Internet has made it that much easier for those with compulsive sexual behavior to seek out destructive ways to satisfy their compulsion. Learn More
Trauma & PTSD Treatment
Those who experience a life-changing, traumatic event and do not get the psychological support they need can suffer from years of depression, anxiety, hopelessness and compulsive behaviors. PTSD impacts your emotional, psychological and physical health. We create a warm, nurturing environment where trauma survivors can feel safe as they work through their emotions and experiences. Learn More
Young Adult Rehab
Young adulthood can be a difficult and confusing time. Some young people experiment with drugs and alcohol as a passing phase, while others get derailed by it. Learn More

Queen of Angels
by Greg Bear
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Queen of Angels has been described as Greg Bear's most ambitious work, and ambitious it certainly is. But ambition does not necessarily equal success.
The book takes a murder-mystery type story - a famous and successful poet of the 21st century unexpectedly murders eight of his closest friends - and turns it into a musing on the nature of awareness and identity. The question is approached through various perspectives
- that of a policewoman who has opted for physical transformation through nanotech, costing her friends and family,
- a poet friend of the suspected murderer, a somewhat unhappy individual who has opted not to have the nanotech-enabled 'therapy' that is common in society
- a therapist who has lost his career due to political scandal
All these individuals try, in their own ways, to make sense of these murders and why they may have happened.
Interspersed with this story is the story of the gradual awakening to self-aware consciousness of an AI which is an interstellar probe, and its counterpart on earth. This story is really only thematically linked to the main plot.
Bear discussed many interesting issues here, however, my enjoyment of the book was greatly diminished by the writing, especially during the part having to do with the poet. Attempting an experimental poetic? type of language Bear eschews the use of commas parentheses inserting phrases words into sentences randomly a flow-of-consciousness perspective or just pretension you decide.
It does make it slow to read, because the reader has to sort out all the phrases, decide where the commas should have been, and then decide what meaning(s) the author was getting at.
I like commas. Of course, I had a professor once yell at me for my propensity toward using them too liberally, so this could be a personal issue! ;-)
This is a good candidate for the first book I don't finish. I do see two other people did just that :-)
However I'll still try for a bit and maybe update here if there's any change.
Edit: I finished it. Sorry, there isn't any redeeming closure or "big arc" or anything worthwhile. It seemed for a short while that it was going somewhere but it crumbled completely. Just not worth it.
Possibly the best exploration of journeying into the consciousness and memories of another. Gorgeous but boring movie "The Cell" used the idea - this is what that should have been. Also excellent consideration (from the viewpoints of multiple characters, and an evolving A.I.) of what consciousness and self-awareness really mean.
Greg Bear is one of my favorite writers and while I have a few of his works, I try just to read them now and then so I know I will always have a few new ones waiting for me. This time I picked up "Queen of Angels".
It is 2047 and the world is basically separated into therapied and untherapied. The therapied people get the better jobs, the untherapied people seem to be freer in their thinking. A third class of people is the high naturals, those of such mental make up that they don't need therapy. In this society where almost everyone is therapied, the crime that writer Emmanuel Goldsmith commits of premeditated murder is a huge shock. We follow this crime in three ways. One is through the eyes of Richard Fettle, another poet and a friend of Goldsmith. Another is through Mary Choy, a police officer on the case who is desperate to find Goldsmith. Lastly we Martin Burke, a disgraced psychotherapist who has discovered a way to enter a persons "Country of the Mind". In between we also learn about a space probe with an AI on board who is slowly growing towards a discovery and self-awareness.
There is a lot going on in this book. Not only in the many story lines, but also with bigger ideas about crime, therapy, self-awareness. Because of this I had difficulty getting into the book. I felt I never really understood just what exactly was going on, or what the meaning was of what I was reading. But still, I wouldn't say the book was bad. The ideas and the future Bear pictures for us are very interesting and I am curious how this version of the future is developed or used in the other books in the series. I give it three out of five stars.
Started this, did not finish.

Suites (Bassoon, clarinet, flute, horn, oboe) -- Scores
This piece was inspired by a river-rafting trip I took with my sons, Kendall and Kevin, at Moab, Utah. My sons must have thought their father insane for taking them there in August. But the cooling white-water, the colors of the canyons and child's play on sandy beaches made it a treasured experience for us all. "Morning Prayers" recalls "making peace" with the cathedral-like canyon before riding the Colorado River. "River Music" is full of white-water thrills, as well as quiet moments when the river is deep and slow, while we float beside the raft. "Shimmering Heat" recalls the surreal light effects of rising heat. In "Sunset" there is a sense of urgency to take in as much of the beauty of the rich light on the landscape before night falls. The energy we get from that beauty is real. Not just a fleeting mood, it sustains mind, body and spirit.

Financial Education and Access to Savings Accounts: Complements or Substitutes? Evidence from Ugandan Youth Clubs
Evidence on the effectiveness of financial education and formal savings account access is lacking, particularly for youth. We randomly assign 250 youth clubs to receive either financial education, access to a cheap group account, or both. The financial education treatments increase financial literacy; the account-only treatment does not. Administrative data shows the education plus account treatment increases bank savings relative to account-only. But survey-measured total savings shows roughly equal increases across all treatment arms. Earned income also increases in all treatment arms. We find little evidence that education and account access are strong complements, and some evidence they are substitutes.

Lol! Yes, I have different non-wash day categories:
2nd day hair = ready to go when I wake up, or maybe minor touch-ups.
Ok 2nd day hair = canopy isn't great, but it's good enough to get by if I pull te sides back or braid them, etc. but leave the back down.
Pony hair = not quite good enough to pull only the sides back, but the ends are passable (when clumped together in a rubber band!)
Twist hair = pony won't work. Twisting it up, leaving the ends out, which I'll likely spritz and scrunch in the curl. The worse the hair, the less ends that are left out (length-wise)
Bun hair = hair is a mess, but I must leave the house. Lol! I might put some oil in it and braid it before bunning, or just go for a regular bun.
Oh our complex curly hair!! Lol!!

Vagabond 42 Fellowship video tour and sailing adventure
I recently spent 2 weeks crewing aboard Gary Nicholas' Vagabond 42 'Fellowship' on an offshore shakedown cruise from North Carolina to Florida.
I made an in depth video tour of this Vagabond 42's deck and interior, and several videos of our sailing adventure and posted them to
Fellowship Episode 2: Deck Tour - YouTube
for your enjoyment!
I would love to hear what anyone thinks of them, especially if you have ideas on how I can improve on this kind of video for the next series which I'm about to start filming (Swan 49 Bella Luna, Georgia to Tortola...)
drakeParagon's Channel - YouTube
Deck tour video
Love your enthusiasm.
You might do a bit of ****** / sequence.
I liked how you pointed out the tether points in the cockpit. Were the jacklines removed?
Question - did the reef points terminate at the leech cringle or did they pass through the cringle and tie off at the boom?
Great vid, do my boat next! :D
(I have the Tides marine track system too!)
Seriously though, I would like to ask you: Do you like smaller boats/do you have any offshore experience in the 28 to 32 foot range? If so, I'd love to hear any thoughts or insights.
That corrosion you noted on the Stay Lock type fitting on the backstay (8:40 in the vid), was their any visual evidence of anyone trying to fill it/cover it with anything to prevent that crevice corrosion? I have been wondering about stuffing a blob of butyl tape over mine, the ones looking "up" (not installed yet)..
Great video, thanks for posting it.
Just wondering what your overall opinion of the Vagabond 42, particularly performance and suitability as a long term cruiser.
For quite a while a contemplated purchasing a Vagabond 42 however I decided against it, primarily as I was concerned about performance due to the ketch rig and heavy displacement, plus concerns on trying to singlehand the yacht. However they certainly appear to be pretty livable boats.
We had jacklines going from the bow cleats to the stern cleats. I wish I had started filming the deck tour before we stowed them, or had mentioned them in the video. We didn't have any jacklines going to that tether point in the cockpit, but rather it was just for the helmsman to clip into.
I've never seen that kind of reefing set up before... I couldn't find any additional cleats or blocks on the boom for the reefing lines and though it seemed a little strange I ended up terminating them at the leech cringes with bowlines.
On this voyage, all aboard were very new to the boat and we were shaking down and figuring out her systems throughout the whole voyage as I'll show in upcoming episodes...
Thanks for watching and I really appreciate the feedback! :)
Well.... I'm afraid I'll just have to admit to being really biased as I love the Westsail 42 the most... Also my entire experience with the Vagabond 42 was limited to just that voyage (arriving on the day before we pushed off) so I'm not really familiar with her... My strongest impression was that she might need a lot more wind to sail effectively than other boats of similar length and displacement... and might also require running the engine more than those boats in lighter winds... I bet she's more comfortable to sail in heavier air than most boats and would heave to very nicely in storm conditions.
Maybe someday Fellowship and my heavier Westsail 42 'Paragon' will rendezvous and do some convoy sailing.. Would be interesting..
I'm looking forward to giving you an in depth tour of Vagabond 42 Fellowship's cabin when I publish that video next Thursday! :)
Happy Sailing, Drake
I love all sailboats, all sizes, all types... :) I started living aboard in 1994 on a old 30' Hunter in Boston harbor... In 1998 moved to a Westsail 32, and in 2002 I pushed off to spend 6 years cruising the US East coast, Bahamas, Caribbean, Bermuda, Venezuela... In 2009 moved to my Westsail 42 'Paragon' and still trying to get out of the Atlantic...
I'm not sure what the best thing is for that SSB connection to the backstay.. I've seen the wire clamped on with no goop of any kind.. and I've seen others with tons of goop all over... I think in either case corrosion eventually becomes an issue...Maybe self amalgamating tape would work best? I'm not sure... Anyone?
I have seen connections similar to this one which will not allow water to accumulate.
Looks good. Not sure about the performance.

Apart from your already-discussed willingness to honestly show both the good and the bad - which is very rare - you also take the time to point out details (like the tour of the deck), talk about the upsides and downsides of each thing, and do it in language that is easy for people to understand. For example, many experienced sailors wouldn't take the time to point out and explain the throttle and the shifter, or the issues with the CP cables, or the anchor swivel. You do - and it's great. And very, very few experienced sailors would walk through mistakes they made...but this is all so critical to the rest of us trying to learn.
You make it easy for people to relate to you...i.e. - not too "expert", but still way more experienced than most of us. It's clear that you just love sailing - like the rest of us - and want to share it with everyone.
Also, you have a very good sense for true documentary-style film making, capturing the experience as opposed just chronicling the events. Keep that up. That's exactly what was so compelling about your Nightmare series - it's not just the decision/results, it's the decision process that you show that's so reveting. Even the boredom/cooking/sleeping/messiness down below was all interesting because THAT'S as much a part of the experience as storms and sunsets.
In this regard, there's another great guy around here named Dylan Winter. He is/was a cinematographer for the BBC and has a GREAT ongoing series called "Keep Turning Left":
His film making is brilliant as well. You should find his stuff on YouTube and talk craft with him. His shooting, editing, and story-telling are all top notch...as is his use of narration, etc.
Keep it coming!
Wow! I'm most happy to fall-in right behind smackdaddy as he echos my feelings perfectly. Great videos. Great technique. I've subscribed and look forward to more as I pass-through waypoints leading me to the West Palm area by April to purchase, outfit, *, *, *, cruise. The water-based portion of my adventure is just beginning and this post is another great example of why Sailnet has become a prime asset for me. Cheers!

Multiple grade II winner Surf Cat makes his turf racing debut Oct. 7 for trainer Bruce Headley when he tackles Lava Man and four others in the $250,000 Oak Tree Breeders' Cup Mile (gr. IIT) at Santa Anita.
Headley says he respects Lava Man, but the 73-year-old trainer feels the time is right for Surf Cat to try the turf. The Oak Tree Mile carries an automatic bid to the NetJets Breeders' Cup Mile (gr. IT) at Monmouth Park Oct. 27.
Headley knows Surf Cat will have plenty to overcome when he takes on America's leading active money earner.
"Oh, he's a great horse, no doubt about it," Headley said of Lava Man, winner of 17 races and $5,209,706. "But I've got a great horse, too. They're going to tangle."
The 5-year-old Kentucky-bred son of Sir Cat has made his 13 career starts on either dirt or synthetic surfaces, winning seven times. In his last six starts -- the last five in graded stakes conditions -- Surf Cat has won four times and placed twice. Overall, Surf Cat has earned $682,420.
Headley says the small field shouldn't enter into play.
"Lady Luck is the factor, not the size of the field," Headley said. "If it goes according to Hoyle, the best horse wins it."
Headley said that Surf Cat has been working regularly on turf for the past two months. He went four furlongs at Santa Anita Oct. 3 in :47 flat, dogs up.
"This will be the first time he's run on grass in a race, but I've worked him every Wednesday since Del Mar on the grass," Headley said. "I think a runner can run on anything if he's ready and has luck."
Lava Man is a grade I winner on turf -- and just about any other surface horses run on these days -- but the thinking is that he's likely sharpening up for a date in the new Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile.
Lava Man could use a confidence boost after a sixth-place finish in the Pacific Classic (gr. I). Lava Man, with six wins and four seconds in 14 lifetime starts on grass, remains an enigma outside of California where he is winless in five tries.
"He's doing really well," trainer Doug O'Neill said of the 6-year-old California-bred gelding. "He worked really well Saturday at Hollywood Park and we're all set for Sunday."
Brazilian-bred 4-year-old Out of Control has raced seven times in this country for trainer Bobby Frankel and T N T Stud. After defeating The Tin Man by a head in the in the 1 1/8-mile American Invitational (gr. IIT) at Hollywood Park this summer , he ran second to highly-acclaimed After Market in Del Mar's Eddie Read Handicap (gr. IT). Out of Control faltered in his latest effort at one mile on turf, the Aug. 19 Del Mar Mile Handicap (gr. IIT), fading to sixth. Michael Baze handles the bay colt who has earned $337,371 from a career record of 4-3-1 in 10 starts.
Get Funky, winner of the 2006 Del Mar Derby (gr. IIT), is on the comeback trail for trainer John Sadler. The 4-year-old Straight Man colt last ran in May when he finished second to the The Tin Man in the Shoemaker Mile (gr. IT) on the Hollywood Park turf.

"We thought it was a huge success," said the Rev. Canon Cheryl Palmer. "Those who came had a great time."
While a cemetery might normally be thought of as a solemn place, Palmer said she hopes the party – which may yet turn into a regular event – helped some neighbours change their perceptions of the cemetery into a place to be visited regularly.
"Some people think you only go there if you have some grave reason, pardon the pun, and that's not the case," she said.
To that end, the day's events included a barbecue, live entertainment from the Missing A Man Trio and Groove Stone, a historical walking tour of some of the more notable graves on the grounds, prayers at the Commonwealth war graves and even a scavenger hunt for children. Palmer hopes involving the children in fun activities will help them grow up without irrational fears of cemeteries.
In the end, Palmer wants Beach residents to know the cemetery grounds at St. John Norway are open for the living, too.
"Come, bring your children and just experience the place. It's 35 acres and it's for the community," she said.

Seattle, WA
Captive Spirits Big Gin ($33)
Ben Capdevielle is a third-generation distiller: His dad taught him to make rum from sugar mash when he was 26, and his grandfather made Templeton Rye whiskey clandestinely during Prohibition in Iowa. Now Capdevielle is carrying on the family tradition, making a citrusy, peppery, English-style gin in a small 100-gallon pot still at his new distillery. This winter, Captive will release a gin that has been aged in bourbon barrels from Kentucky's Heaven Hill. captivespiritsdistilling.com.

The second major press conference of E3 2011 begins in just a few minutes! For this press conference, we move from platform manufacturer Microsoft to Third Party Electronic Arts. Expect sports game demoes with former Football stars alongside plenty of multiplatform announcements.
Will we see more Mass Effect 3 demoes? How much time can (and will) EA spend demoing the Old Republic? And will we finally see some of Battlefield 3's multiplayer content? Tune in at 12:30 PM PST to find out!
Watch the EA Press Conference here!
[1:31] And so ends the Electronic Arts Press Conference. Thanks for watching and reading the live blog! We'll be back in an hour, at 2:30, for the Ubisoft E3 Press Conference! See you soon!
[1:30] Battlefield 3 is out on October 25th. So ends the Battlefield 3 demo.
[1:28] Graphics doesn't equal gameplay, but god damn, are those some good graphics.
[1:27] This is the longest on-stage gameplay demo we've seen all show.
[1:26] Look at that dust!
[1:24] Battlefield 3 single player demo playing now. Tanks firing at tanks. When will the violence end?
[1:23] Battle Log is a similar social network service that will allow players of Battlefield 3 to build platoons and squads, as well as share and store gameplay info and stats, inside the game as well as on the web. Players will be able to test out these features alongside the Battlefield 3 demo (launching before the game ships0.
[1:21] A few quick shots of the multiplayer. I mean, it had to be multiplayer, right? There were names over those dude's heads.
[1:20] Anyone else feel like they need a new computer?
[1:18] Battlefield 3 is reaffirmed for a Holiday release. Currently playing is a video on the Frostbite Engine 2, the technology powering Battlefield 3.
[1:17] Battlefield 3 is on deck.
[1;15] Overstrike FMV trailer plays now. Seems more colorful than games in that genre, if the FMV style makes it to the game. No idea how this one plays though.
[1:14] Overstrike is a terrible name for a video game. But it absolutely a video game name. Overstrike follows a mercenary group called Overstrike 9.
[1:13] Kingdom's demo is done. Here comes Ted Price of Insomniac. Their multiplatform game is coming!
[1:10] Curt Shilling is not wearing Red Sox, but he is on the EA stage showing off Reckoning (Curt just calls it Reckoning, and leaves off the Kingdoms of Amalur part).

[1:02] FIFA is out, Madden is in. Tough Actin'!
[1;00] EA announced the FIFA football club, a free program that inserts unique challenges to the game's player base Sounds like Rock Band 3's challenge mode... but for Futbol.
12:59] Lil' Wayne always has a game plan, whether he's recording or playing FIFA.
[12:58] That guy loves soccer as much as he loves his neck chain.
[12:56] Are the speakers on the EA stage reading from a teleprompter below them? They keep looking down at their feet, like they're speaking with their eyes closed. Also, FIFA 12 is on stage.
[12:55] Peter Moore returns to an E3 Livestream stage, describes how they used NASA satellites to map out the game's courses. SSX will be out on consoles this coming January.
[12:52] This SSX trailer seems way more colorful than that "extreme hardcore" teaser from last year's Spike VGAs.
[12:50]. Well... there yo go. No gameplay footage of TOR, and the segment is done. Now comes a trailer for SSX.
[12:49]. Right click on that enemy to attack him! Except you can't, because this is an FMV trailer, and not real gameplay.
[12:46] If you guessed that the Old Republic demo would be an FMV trailer, guess what. You win.
[12:46] The OTHER BioWare Doctor (Greg) takes the stage to talk about The Old Republic. Start your TOR timers now! How long do you think this segment will go? Place your bets!
[12:45] That Heavy Rain connection is made way stronger by featuring a scene where the racer in The Run has to extract himself from a flipped car upside down... via Quick Time Event.
[12:41] Queue the Need For Speed: The Run gameplay trailer. It looks like you're speeding across the country, by car AND on foot. The on foot sequences look like scripted QTEs, a la Heavy Rain.
[12:40] Black Box returns to the EA Stage to talk about Need For Speed: The Run, describing the enhanced AutoLog integration. Auto Log will even directly weave into the main campaign.
[12:38] John Riccitiello takes the stage with a little dig at flashier press conferences, as well as a plug for Origin, EA's rebranded download service.
[12:37] You know, when I think of Mass Effect, I don't think of wailing guitars. I think of sick keyboards.
[12:36] Casey Hudson reveals the Mass Effect 3 release date: March 6th 2012. Cut to the very first gameplay trailer for the game.
[12;35]. Not a lot of dialog wheels in that demo.
[12:34] It's not a reaper base! It's a LIVE REAPER.
[12:33] A live demo of Mass Effect 3 begins on stage. Shepard has access to some aerial fire power; he can call in bombing runs from the Normandy.
[12:32] Casey Hudson steps on stage to talk about Mass Effect 3, describes how the Mass Effect franchise was always conceived as a trilogy.
[12:31] The EA press conference begins with a trailer for Mass Effect 3. The Reapers are already here... on Earth!

We had a friend spend the night so I made a "fancy" breakfast: ham, egg, and cheese biscuits like form McDonald's! He was very impressed! LOL I have pork roast in the oven and boy, does it smell good! We will be using the leftovers for minestrone soup (the bone and scraps) as well as a couple of extra meals of burritos, pork fried rice and more. Mind you, this was a roast I got for 6.77 and it weighed almost 8 pounds!
DH rebuilt one of our computers instead of replacing it as well as buying a lap top (he HAD to have one of those for work, dang it!). He only spent $150.00 after rebates. A guy who does rebates--I was sooo proud!
We also reused some of our furniture to remake the office. No money out for a new look--if you can call "early garage sale" a "look".09-12-2004, 08:26 PM #5

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- The Vols and Lady Vols are set to host the three-day Tennessee Diving Invitational starting Thursday at the Allan Jones Intercollegiate Aquatic Center.
The diving-only competition begins at 11:30 a.m. with the men's 1-meter springboard and women's 3-meter springboard preliminaries. Finals featuring 12 divers will follow directly after. Admission is free to all sessions.
Divers from 15 schools will be competing this weekend, including seven from the Southeastern Conference: Tennessee, Alabama, Auburn, Kentucky, Georgia, LSU and Missouri.
The meet is conducted similarly to the NCAA Zone B Diving Championships, the national qualifying meet that the Vols will host in March. The intensive schedule of preliminaries followed by the finals marks that important meet, which determines which divers advance to the championship site.
Friday's competition starts at 11:30 a.m. with women's 1-meter and men's 3-meter springboards. Saturday features platform diving beginning at 10:30 a.m.
Reigning SEC Diver of the Year Tori Lamp headlines the Tennessee participants at the meet. Lamp, a Knoxville native, won the 2012 SEC platform title and took silver at the NCAAs. Saturday marks the second time this year that Tennessee will compete on the 10-meter platform, and Lamp says she looks forward to putting together a more consistent performance from her November effort.
On the men's side, senior Brent Sterling has posted career bests in all three diving events this year, including a score of 407.45 on the 3 meter, the ninth-best score in program history.
The competitive field looks to be a strong one with two 2012 Olympic medalists from Duke are scheduled to compete: Abby Johnston and Nick McCrory. Johnston took silver in 3-meter synchronized diving, and McCrory earned bronze in the 10-meter syncro event.
Tennessee last hosted its home diving meet in 2011. Instead of holding a meet at home last year, the UT diving squad traveled to Athens, Ga., for the Georgia Diving Invitational and Shootout.

You can find various types of baby sling patterns online or you can sometimes even ask someone to make one for you. A baby sling is actually a baby carrier that uses cloth and metal or nylon rings, which is wrapped around the body of the mother or carrier. The baby is made to sit down or lie on the pocket. There are many online sites that offer you free baby sling patterns that are quite safe for holding your baby. The patterns also come with full instructions and drawings. You can see different types of rings and fabrics and select the pattern that is safe and suitable for your baby. The size and age are very important considerations which will help you choose the best patterns.
Baby sling pattern with a sling ring can be used for carrying premature infants to provide the perfect skin-to-skin type of kangaroo care. The pattern is very versatile, as it can later be used to carry the baby either in the front or the back or even on the hip. You can also make a simple pouch sling with instructions. You can use heavy canvas or breezy cotton for this type of sling, and some people even make them from old sheets. But it should not be too flimsy, as it needs to hold the baby securely. Don't use any stretchy material, such as knits or fleece, at least not if you are a beginner.
There are also baby sling patterns that are the wraparound type. They can be wrapped around the wearer and the baby as the name suggests. They are then tied in different ways, so that you can position the baby in the way you wish. They go over both the shoulders of the carrier and also around the waist. This offers a very good support and great security, because the weight of the baby is spread around the carrier's hips, shoulders and the back. This is a one of the baby sling pattern that is very comfortable for the carrier. This pattern was very popular in Europe right from the 1970s and is offered as standard in many maternity institutions.
You must select baby sling patterns that are suitable for the age of the baby, as there have been several accidents involving babies where soft carriers and back packs have been used. In such patterns, the baby might shift to one side and slip through the leg opening and fall to the ground. Such patterns are not recommended for use with very young babies. However, when choosing the pattern, you should also look at the weight, as there are some weight limits for the baby slings.
Many new parents prefer a baby sling like the Mei Tai carrier. In this pattern, the baby can be carried in an ergonomic manner, which is ideal for both the child and the parent. The weight of the baby gets distributed in a balanced manner over both the shoulders. There is also a belt at the hip which takes a greater part of the weight. In such baby sling patterns, the baby can also be held close to the body of the carrier, so that there is less pressure on the neck and shoulders of the parent.

Help with drainage problem.
2 Attachment(s)
I need to run storm water drainage for an area where I laid patio blocks. I included a MS Paint picture of what I was planing on doing. I'm basically going to buy those box grill drainage parts and interconnect them with pvc pipe. I will run the underground pipe to a shallow trench at the edge of my property line. I have a few questions though.
-Do I need to slope the 4" underground pipe that goes to the trench?
-How much do I need to slope the patio blocks to the center where the grills are located?
-Do you have a better suggestion to remove storm water from this area?
2 Attachment(s)
Can someone tell me if I am supposed to slope underground drainage pipe? Can I just run it level all the way across?
Yes you do need to slope the pipe, otherwise how will the water get to the trench. I would slightly slope the pavers too, but if you prepare the ground underneath with a sand bed on sloped undisturbed soil or geotextile fabric, the water will permeate through and make it's way to the grill as well. Bump for more opinions.
pipe needs to be sloped. 1/4" per foot is a general rule of thumb for any drain pipe
I'm a little confused. are the pavers already down? what did you use for a subbase and how thick is it?
Which way do the Pavers Slope/ Pitch,..??
2 Attachment(s)
The problem I am having is that the trench is around 35 to 40 feet away from the first drain grill. The trench is only 6 to 8 inches deep. I can't really dig the trench deeper because of liability issues. I don't want my neighbor kid breaking his leg in the trench while playing. At 1/4in drop for every foot, I am looking at 10inches at the trench. This doesn't include the 3 or 4 inches under grade that it states off at. I would be looking at a trench at a minimum of 14inches. I thought it would drain if at level because the entire pipe is below grade. It would have to drain if it fills with water.
I haven't laid the patio blocks yet.
is there a reason you can't simply slope the pavers slightly, so the runoff is directed toward the trench?
water is lazy, if you don't slope the pipe, it isn't going to move.
In That Case,.....
Alter the grade of what you have,+ pitch the water where you want it to go........
Raise the center of the courtyard, 1 end or the other,..??
Whatever it takes....
What's the Total vertical Drop from the existing Sidewalk, down to the Trench,..??
2 Attachment(s)
I can't bury the pipe at the trench because the trench leads to the street. It would create a huge trap. I attached another picture. The water would have to drain because it will take the path of least resistance which is out the other end at the trench. I could have problems with stagnant water though. I can't really slope the patio away because there is a structure on either side. If I slope it to the trench, I will have a huge puddle in the yard every time it rains. The trench goes another 25 to 30 feet to the road. The first picture isn't to scale. The trench isn't that close to the building.
can you break the curb ? ? ?
leader drains regularly drain onto streets.

Wrongful-death lawsuit in Shaler soldier's electrocution dismissed
The mother of a Shaler soldier electrocuted in Iraq said Monday she was "completely disappointed" and will appeal a federal judge's decision to dismiss the wrongful death lawsuit against the company she claims is responsible.
Cheryl Harris of Cranberry said the case involving her son, Ryan Maseth, didn't end when U.S. District Judge Nora Barry Fischer on Friday dismissed the lawsuit against KBR Inc., a Houston-based engineering and construction company that contracted to maintain Army barracks in Iraq.
"We won't quit until there is nothing left to appeal," Harris said. "I was told that if I wanted justice, it would have to be in a courtroom. We expected that justice would prevail, but (the judge's dismissal) left me surprised and disappointed."
KBR spokesman John Elolf did not respond to requests for comment.
Harris and Douglas Maseth of Allison Park claim in the civil lawsuit that KBR's negligence led to the death of their son, Army Staff Sgt. Ryan Maseth, 24, on Jan. 2, 2008, while he was showering at the Radwaniyah Palace Complex, one of Saddam Hussein's palaces that was serving as a base for U.S. forces in Iraq.
They claim in the lawsuit that KBR's shoddy electrical work on a water pump caused their son's electrocution.
In court filings, KBR contends that although it had the maintenance contract for the building, the Army decided not to make the building electrically safe.
Army officials did not return calls.
The case drew international attention during several investigations as the military inspected equipment in its bases and Congress called for reviews of work by contractors.
Fischer said she couldn't rule on whether KBR caused Maseth's death without ruling on the Army's decision to house him and other soldiers in a barracks with a substandard electrical system. The courts don't have jurisdiction to second-guess the Pentagon on the acceptable level of risk for soldiers in a combat area, she said.
"The judgments of these officials on such sensitive military and legislative policy issues cannot be evaluated in a court of law without violating the doctrine of separation of powers," the judge wrote.
In March 2009, Fischer rejected a motion to dismiss the case because of a similar argument.
A few months later, the Pentagon released a report that said improper grounding or faulty equipment were to blame for nine of 18 electrocution deaths reported in Iraq, including Maseth's. The report concluded that "multiple systems and organizations failed," leaving Maseth "exposed to unacceptable risk."
KBR was not implicated in the eight other electrocutions.
Harris said she filed the lawsuit in March 2008 to get answers about her son's death, "but it never was just about Ryan.
"It was about the safety of our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. It was about a contractor being paid to do work. It was about providing basic safety for our troops.
"It was about justice," she said, adding that she doesn't feel justice was done.
Bill Stickman, one of the attorneys representing Maseth's parents, said he will file his appeal to 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals within 30 days.
"We're all disappointed, but we don't feel defeated at this point. We think we have strong issues, and we're confident of our chances before the circuit and getting Ryan his day in court," he said.

When you're on the wrong side of Planned Parenthood, you're on the right side of history.
The left's disingenuous and intellectually lazy "war on women" talking points have blown up in its face. Most polls show Mitt Romney fast gaining on President Obama with female voters. Some polls even show him pulling ahead.
The question of imposing a 1-percent sales tax for transportation projects has become an issue that does not break down along familiar lines of Republican versus Democrat, or liberal versus conservative.
There are several Tea Party organizations, which are very conservative, that are opposing the T-SPLOST referendums scheduled for Georgia's July 31 ballot. They have been joined by the Sierra Club of Georgia, whose members have political leanings to the left of the Tea Party on most issues.
The severe cuts now being made at the local level reveal a new reality in the financing of Georgia's schools. Many systems were once able to cover the decline in state support through rising property taxes, but this fallback is now gone.
The required cuts go far beyond belt-tightening. There will be larger class sizes, fewer school days and reduced programs. Furloughs and layoffs will continue.
State officials consistently say, "We're doing the best we can." But there are two flaws in this excuse.
The General Assembly will have a familiar look when lawmakers convene for the 2013 session, judging from the results of candidate qualifying last week.
In the House of Representatives, 62 Republican incumbents made it through qualifying without drawing opposition in either the GOP primary or the general election. Another 16 GOP incumbents have minimal opposition and are virtually assured of winning another term, for a total of 78 safe incumbents.
It's good to stay young at heart. It's good to keep a youthful outlook on life. It's good to keep your sense of humor where everybody else is losing their temper.
It's also good, however, to admit when you've had enough and cannot accomplish things at which you excelled 20 years ago.
When Georgians look over their ballots on election day, they usually make decisions based upon personality: Do I like this person better for this particular office, or am I more comfortable voting for this other person?
Politics is personal and always will be. The upcoming primary elections on July 31, however, will offer an interesting change for the state's voters. In many cases, the most important choice they make will be to vote for or against an abstract issue, rather than a flesh-and-blood candidate.
"Don't commence your weaning when the moon is waning, nor should you be birthing then."
– The Old Farmer's Almanac, 1994
Is the moon made of cheese? Does it have a dark side? And was there a man in the moon before astronaut Neil Armstrong's 1969 arrival? Or is that vague moon silhouette a woman, as the imaginative eyes of the Polynesians believe, or according to the Japanese, a rabbit in profile?
There are times when I look at how our elected officials spend our tax dollars and I shake my head in amazement, asking: "What are these people thinking?"
I've done a lot of head-shaking over recent discussions about a new stadium for Arthur Blank and the professional football team he owns, the Atlanta Falcons.
It appears that the World Congress Center Authority will agree to build that new stadium for Blank, despite the fact that the Georgia Dome is less than 20 years old and would have to be torn down.
When the left takes a strident position on any given issue, that's a clear signal that the policy they dislike is gaining momentum.
There was big news coming out of the governor's office recently about an agreement reached with Baxter International, an Illinois healthcare company.
Gov. Nathan Deal announced that Baxter will open a pharmaceutical manufacturing facility east of Atlanta that puts as many as 1,500 people to work. The Baxter project, Deal said, "marks a new era in the growth of our biosciences industry."

Zozobra burning remains a Thursday night event
SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — The burning of the Zozobra, a giant puppet stuffed with scraps of paper, will remain a Thursday night event in Santa Fe.
The Kiwanis Club says the annual pre-Fiesta event will [auth] take place the evening of Sept. 5 at Fort Mercy Park.
There had been talk of moving the burning to Friday night, but organizer Ray Sandoval says the club decided to end uncertainty and set a date.
Admission will cost $10, down from $20 last year.
Sandoval had said a Friday night burning would boost attendance and help avoid a ticket price increase.
The Sante Fe New Mexican (http://bit.ly/148MxIn ) reports that Police Chief Ray Rael said it would be difficult for police to monitor both the burning at the park and gathering of people at the plaza afterward.

KAT MOON is about to learn that she can't have it both ways.
She's furious to discover Alfie has gone behind her back and contacted a
solicitor to set up a contact order for their son, Tommy.
And in scenes on BBC1 at 7.30pm on March 19, Kat flies off the handle in
typical EastEnders fashion and tells Alfie that although he'll always be
Tommy's dad in her eyes, she doesn't want to get lawyers involved.
However, when she later goes back to him to ask for cash to help her move,
Alfie suggests she ask Tommy's real dad Michael Moon for it.
Could it be that nice-guy Alfie is ready to fight back?

The formula is not meant for literally plugging in numbers to get an answer for AF, but rather simply to illustrate the relationship of the framework choice to the automation scope—a relationship that may be used as guidance for selecting an automation framework. However, the past ten years could've been used to develop consensus within the industry about how this type of formula could be used literally to plug in values for an actual answer to the type of framework that might work best for the identified scope.
Detailed Calculations for Automated Test Development and Maintenance Times
How long should one expect to develop and maintain automated tests? There is a factor that is widely accepted among industry leaders that it will take three to ten times as long to automate a test as it does to execute it once manually. That means if it takes you one minute to execute a test manually once, it will probably take somewhere between three to ten minutes to automate that test. This is still a fairly broad range because there is no industry standard regarding the time it should take to maintain an automated test suite given a certain scope. We need to focus on further defining this information.
Making Risk-based (Quality-based) ROI Calculations More Acceptable
The three basic approaches for measuring ROI are:
- Simple ROI: Quantifying automation benefits in terms of the monetary savings automated test execution provides over manual test execution of the same set of tests
- Efficiency ROI: Quantifying automation benefits in terms of the time savings automated test execution provides over manual test execution of the same set of tests
- Quality ROI: Quantifying automation benefits in terms of the potential monetary savings automated test execution provides via increased test coverage and reduced risk of application failures
Each measure has its pros and cons, but there is one measure that has been largely neglected in practice—Quality ROI. Quality ROI provides a broader view of the benefits of test automation that can get lost if you only focus on the Simple and Efficiency ROI measures. Neglecting the broader view may hurt an automation effort that is already riddled with unrealistic expectations about an immediate, high-monetary ROI. The past decade has seen lost opportunity in effectively moving the industry to a more balanced approach for measuring ROI.
Moving to a Fourth Generation Automation Framework
Automation frameworks may be discussed in terms of three generations:
- Generation 1 (Linear): Framework that is composed of automated tests where all components that are executed by a given tests are mostly contained within that automated test
- Generation 2 (Data-driven, Functional Decomposition): Framework that introduces more modularization, reuse of common components among several scripts, and greater separation of data from automation code
- Generation 3 (Keyword, Model Based): Framework that adds a new level of abstraction that separates code logic from test logic, allowing automated tests to be built and maintained in a less technical way
Each generation has its pros and cons and should be evaluated for use in terms of the automation scope of the organization. There is an opening, however, for a new generation to be introduced. I've dabbled with the concept of building detailed manual test procedures that could be interpreted by an engine and therefore double as automated tests. In addition, there have been some tools that have sought to offer this capability through business components that may be used to build manual test procedures that may also double as automated tests. So while there has been some movement in this direction, it could and should be more pronounced.

Welcome to another addition of Lego Creation Thursday. I guess I'll call this edition the sickie edition. Both boys have been sick all week with colds and lots of coughing. I was not sure we would even get any Legos created this week but they managed to come up with something!
Before I show the boys' creations I did get that blog button made! Ta-da! Let me just say I am not good at making blog buttons but I finally figured it out! It has been a long time since I made my other blog button and I had forgotten how! A big thanks to Debbie for sending me those very neat Lego clip art links! If you want the button you can grab it over on my sidebar.
Ok on to this week's creations! Kaden is up first with his Statue of Liberty.
This Statue of Liberty is very unique in that she is bald an her head seems to be much smaller than her body! But I think she is cute!
Next we have Justin's creation. Two planets, Venus and earth. It is very difficult to make round objects with Legos. I think Justin did a pretty good job though. In the past he has made the entire solar system out of Legos but was not really up to it this week.
Earth and Venus
I'm really excited. Last week we had a some new families join us. If you cannot participate each Thursday just stop by when you can! We love seeing all of your kids creations! Whether it is once a week or once a month!
What Lego creations have your kids come up with this week? Please join us! We would love to see their creations! You can link up below using Mr. Linky! I would appreciate it if you would link this post in your post or share our Lego Creation Thursday button in your post. Be sure to join us each week!

Beastie Boys Eyeing September Release for 'Hot Sauce'
For Mike D, Beastie Boys records have traditionally worked like fine wine. They take awhile to create, but after proper aging, the group knows the material is strong enough to go public and capture our stereos for months. That's the direction things seem to be going for the trio's 'Hot Sauce Committee Pt. 1,' an album that was slated for release last September but delayed after MCA was stricken with throat cancer. Now, the Beasties are aiming for a September 2010 release date.
"We've been letting it age," Mike D told Rolling Stone when asked about the fate of the new record. "The writing is the growing of the grapes, and we've already macerated, and at this point, it's been living in a barrel and being stored in bottles in the cellar, and hopefully by September, we will uncork."
'Hot Sauce Committee Pt. 1′ will be the Beastie Boys' eighth official studio effort. It already boasts confirmed features from both Nas and Santigold, and band members have hinted that fans can expect a similar psychedelic head trip that the group used on classics like 'Paul's Boutique' and 'Check Your Head.' This means tons of short songs with different genres and obscure samples being smashed together into an expansive whole.
"Hopefully it's gone from being a very good wine with a lot of promise to being a fully refined and fully developed wine for consumption," he continued. "The finest French Burgundies only get better in time, and only show their real selves and real complexity with a great deal of time, so we can only hope that time will tell [for Hot Sauce]."
Mike D also explained that the timeline remains dependent on MCA's health. As that's the top priority, dates could easily change if the gravelly-voiced MC needs more time to heal.


text: ALBANY, New York, March 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Transparency Market Research ( http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com) has released a new market report titled " Rare Earth Metals (Lanthanum, Cerium, Neodymium, Europium, Yttrium, Scandium, Terbium & Other Key Elements) Market - Global Industry Analysis, Applications (Magnets, Catalysts, Metallurgy, Phosphors, Ceramics & Others), Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2012 - 2018," which observes that the rare earth metals demand was worth USD 3.93 billion in 2012 and is expected to reach USD 8.19 billion by 2018, growing at a CAGR of 13.0% from 2012 to 2018.
