Jan 23, 2014 - By Eric Blom, Staff WriterOld Town Coffee is creating a Riverton location, and Roasted Bean and Cuisine will open on Main Street.
Riverton residents looking for a place to sit down with a cup of coffee and a bite to eat should have two more options this spring.
Roasted Bean and Cuisine is a new cafe set to open at 514 W. Man St., on top the hill on Main Street. Old Town Coffee, a Lander coffee shop, is creating a Riverton location at 900 Webbwood set to open March 16.
Both plan to serve coffee, espresso drinks and food but have different strategies.
Roasted Bean and Cuisine co-owner Inga Tyra said her cafe will have a full commercial kitchen, a feature the coffee shop that previously occupied her restaurant's location did not possess. The new facilities would allow her to offer a greater variety of food, and Tyra plans to serve homemade soups, specialty sandwiches, paninis, wraps and specialty salads.
Tyra plans to open the cafe in March or possibly later in the spring.
"I just wanted a classy, smoke-free place to sit down and have a nice, healthy meal," Tyra said.
She brings 10 years' experience managing a drive-thru espresso shop to her new job running Roasted Bean and Cuisine, which she co-owns with her husband, Jacob Tyra.
The plan is to be open from breakfast through lunch, Monday through Thursday and Saturday, and from breakfast through dinner Friday.
Before the Tyras open their cafe, contractor Apodaca and Sons Construction has completed pouring concrete and framing the new bathroom and are finishing a new kitchen.
"We gutted the entire building down to the dirt floors," Inga Tyra said.
She also hopes to add an outdoor patio.
Roasted Bean and Cuisine will employ several people as cooks and servers, but Inga Tyra said she was not sure how many yet.
Old Town
Nikki Peterson, co-owner of Old Town Coffee, thinks the location of her new store will help it thrive.
"It's a really busy area of the county, and the second thing is that there aren't any other coffee shops over there, it's less saturated," she said.
Peterson graduated from high school in Riverton and wanted to open a location in her hometown. The timing was right because the Lander business was doing well and an attractive location became available, Peterson said.
The original Old Town Coffee is on Lander's Main Street, but Peterson said she did not want to open shop in Riverton's downtown.
"I think there's definitely more traffic in the parking lot where we'll be," she said.
She also did not want to "step on the toes" of Brown Sugar Coffee Roastery, located on Main Street in Riverton.
"Part of our goal is to make sure that we come into the community in a very friendly way," she said.
To take advantage of traffic, the cafe's front door will be on the north side of the building, facing Walmart's parking lot and on the opposite side from the building's other tenant, American Dry Cleaning. Old Town Coffee plans to occupy only part of the west side of the building, and Peterson hopes to rent the space it is not using to another business.
The new cafe will have outdoor seating on the north side as well, and Peterson hopes to have a drive-thru window but is waiting on a city permit for it.
Old Town's "third-wave" coffee and pastries baked from scratch will also set it apart, Peterson said.
Third-wave coffees come from suppliers who work with farmers to make sure they are paid well and produce coffee at the highest standard, Peterson said.
Offerings at Old Town Coffee's Riverton location will be the same as its Lander shop, except for the beer and wine. The Riverton cafe plans to serve coffee, tea, smoothies, Grand Teton Brewing Company sodas, pastries and pita wraps.
Noting many coffee shops in Riverton are drive-thrus, Peterson said Old Town Coffee will offer seating and a place for people to sit down and meet socially or for business.
To that end, the cafe will feature a "community table," accommodating 10 to 12 people, Peterson said. Customers can use it for larger gatherings, but Peterson hopes it will prod strangers to get to know each other.
"If you're with a friend and sitting next to other people in close proximity, it's a good way to get people chatting," she said.
Current employees will fill some of the five to six positions at the new location, and Peterson eventually expects to have 12 to 15 employees based in Riverton.

The Barnet Collection of Ceramics and Art was founded in 1987 with members drawn from students at Barnet College who had been studying with Sandra Barnett.
The Group offers mutual support in members' art practice, exchange of information, visits to exhibitions, galleries, studios and workshops. Many of the original members have gone on to become professional artists and the group now attracts many high calibre ceramicists and artists in other media. We hold joint exhibitions, and organise workshops and seminars where notable craftspeople are invited to demonstrate their talents.
There are currently 21 members in the group, many of whom have lectured and taught locally, together with others who simply have a passion for their craft. Members meet frequently to plan events and share their expertise and genuine enthusiasm for the arts. The Barnet Collection continues to support various charities and has donated a considerable sum to many worthwhile causes.
If you would like more information on the Barnet Collection please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com or telephone 020 8441 9805.
The Barnet Collection has a public Facebook group which you are welcome to join.

There are two things that you can do.
1- If you have proof he did it, have him pay for it. This should be relatively easy to prove, especially if you have designated spots.
2- Park away from people and walk the extra distance, I do this all the time... and I enjoy the crap out of my car.
3- (bonus) do nothing and take steps (like #2) to minimize your chances of careless people damaging your car.

About Ralph Gordon Selfridge, PhD, "grandfather of digital simulation"
Obituary from the Gainesville Sun, September 3 & 4, 2008:
Ralph Gordon Selfridge passed away Sunday August 31, 2008, at the age of eighty-one. He lived a long and vigorous life. He is survived by his wife, Betty Rushton Selfridge, brother Oliver Selfridge, sister Jennifer Macleod, ten step children, seventeen grandchildren, and three great-grand children. He was born in London, England in 1927 and sailed from Liverpool to America the same day the first German bombs were dropped on London in 1939. He was the grandson of Harry Gordon Selfridge, the founder of Selfridges's department store of London.
His early education included English schools and firm discipline. He later attended Middlesex School in Concord, Massachusetts and earned his BS degree from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He worked his way through college in the cafeteria, where the cafeteria trays worked for sledding downhill in the winter. His Master's degree was awarded by Cornell University.
During the 1950s, he worked for the US Navy at the China Lake Naval Ordinance Test Station in California. At China Lake projects required overcoming "impossible" timetables and figuring out computer programs such as designing the Sidewinder missile. While at China Lake, the navy sponsored the completion of his Doctorate degree in mathematics at the University of Oregon. The close personal friendships formed at China Lake lasted a lifetime. From 1959 to 1961, he taught at Miami of Ohio University. His job there included the early programming and operation of an IBM 700 computer.
The longest portion of his career was spent at the University of Florida where he was a professor of mathematics and computer science from 1961-2002. As a pioneer in the new field of computer science; he was called by many "The grandfather of digital simulation". For a time, he was director of the U of F Computing Center (the predecessor of North-East Regional Data Center, NERDC). He encouraged members of his staff to overcome challenges, seek solutions, provided support and he trusted them. It was a time of great inventiveness and resourcefulness. His legendary class in numerical methods challenged (or terrified) many good students.
From the early sixties through the eighties he was a cave diver in the springs and sink-holes of north Florida. He learned to fly an airplane in 1948, and logged more than 5000 hours taking family, kids and grand-kids into airstrips all over the forty-eight states, Canada and Alaska. He flew the same airplane for nearly forty years. He bought a bicycle in 1955, and rode to work daily, rain or shine until he retired. He loved the mountains, and hiked every summer for about fifty years. He especially enjoyed the Wind River Range and Sierra Nevada mountains, seeking the incredible beauty of remote, inaccessible places.
He was a member of the Sierra Club, the Rolls-Royce owners' club, and the Sunbeam Alpine owners' club. He attended many Sunbeam "Invasions", driving his small sports car long distances, and making repairs as needed along the way. He was a long-time member of the American Civil Liberties Union, serving for some years as their treasurer. He acted as the Chief Negotiator for the United Faculty of Florida and is a past-president of the Gainesville Pilots' Association. He was also active with the Gainesville Little Theater and other local theatrical groups. He played an English butler more than once, and stole a few scenes "high pouring" tea or unexpectedly substituting a real alcoholic beverage into an actor's cup. He was fond of saying that when he was acting, he was just playing himself.
His life exemplified, intellectual rigor, kindness, and love of humanity. He was a gentleman and a scholar. Contributions in his honor may be made to the Sierra Club or the American Civil Liberties Union.
A Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, September 6, 2008 at 1:30pm at Holy Trinity Church, 100 NE 1st ST., Gainesville, FL.

Ralph, I learned so much from you. It was such a privilege to have you chair my PhD Committee. I regret not having kept in closer touch with you over the years. I guess that is all too typical of us mathematicians. I guess it is appropriate to send a greeting during All-Saints-tide. ~ Reverdy Wright, Blacksburg, Virginia

I had the good fortune to meet Ralph in 1979 as part of an NSF summer science program for high school students. Then 13, I had developed an interest in speech processing, and ended up working with a group that shared his lab. This led, inevitably, to interactions with Ralph, and to my learning APL with his encouragement and support. His warmth was evident then, but it is only in hindsight, after ten years in academia, that I have come to appreciate the generosity of spirit that would tolerate -- never mind encourage -- such a distraction to his duties.
If there are two characteristics that define Ralph as I remember him, they are his warmth and the joy and love that he brought to his teaching. His example was one of the inspirations for my own teaching approach at Johns Hopkins 21 years later.
You were an inspiration to all of us, Dr. Selfridge. Rest in peace. ~ Jonathan Shapiro, Ph.D., Woodinville, Washington

I was a math/computer science (APL) student of his in December, 1973. His enthusiasm for conveying the concepts of precision and conciseness was unmatched! That very feature of APL, expressed so diligently by Dr. Selfridge, lead to my following a career path of 30 years in APL. In fact, I was beginning to mention this to him in my next writing to him about my retirement - when I found out of his passing. His major, but unknowing contribution to my life and his kindness in our seldom correspondence over subsequent years will not ever be forgotten. ~ Clyde Minton, Aventura, Florida

I attended Dr. Selfridge's APL course in 83 or 84. His influence led me to perform a recent search.
If you possess the gift to teach, please teach! So many remember in their own fashion those that help shaped who they are.
Cheers Dr. Selfridge! ~ Allen Chambers, Greenbrae, California

I took Dr. Selfridge's APL course in 1978-79 as a graduate student in education. I knew nothing about programming, computers, or APL, and very little mathematics. For some reason, Dr. Selfridge really liked me, possibly because, as he said, I came to his class with no assumptions or preconceptions about problem-solving, unlike all the other students, who for the most part knew a lot of math and were experienced with other sorts of programming.
I recall well a couple of the problems he posed and his method of teaching, which has influenced some of my ideas as a mathematics teacher (yes, incredibly, I went back to school in my 30s as a non-matriculating student in NYC, became a certified h.s. math teacher, taught remedial math at Borough of Manhattan Community College in the early 1990s, and earned a master's in mathematics education at the University of Michigan in 1997).
One thing in particular impressed me: he knew how to give just the right amount of "hint" on a problem so that I could become unstuck but still get the full satisfaction of solving the problem myself. That was a talent very few teachers in any field possess, I fear, particularly in math-intensive courses.
I recently started playing with APL again and bumped into his name on-line. I was saddened, though not shocked, to learn of his passing. And I was excited to see this site and know that I wasn't alone in appreciating him as a remarkable teacher and, as Ed Neu said, "definitely one of the good guys." ~ Michael Paul Goldenberg, Ann Arbor, Michigan

I worked a bit on Dr Selfridge's Sunbeam Alpine as well as took his APL class. I remember him telling my class that "APL was only only real computer language, the rest were computer pornography".
He was definitely one of the good guys. ~ Ed Neu, Tallahassee, Florida

I've only just found this through a Google search, casually looking for where my favourite professor is now. I'm sad, this time, to find the answer.
In 1974 thru 1977, I was finishing my mathematics degree at University of Florida, and studying computer science -- I went on to a career at IBM, where the latter served me much more than the former. I met Dr Selfridge early in that time, and loved him immediately for his quirky style, his quick wit, and his easy rapport with the students who could appreciate him.
Dr Selfridge taught me the finer details of the APL programming language, as well as many aspects of being a first-class computer scientist. I'm grateful to him for his role in where my life and career went.
Some of that learning happened in class, and some of it happened at the Rathskellar or the Orange and Brew on Friday afternoons, in what he called the Alcoholic Programmers' League. We, the students who joined him, felt rather like accolytes accompanying Plato or Socrates.
Over the years, I've wished I'd kept in touch with Dr S, but settled for the occasional Google search. I'll search no more, now, but I'll always remember Ralph Selfridge with very, very much fondness. ~ Barry Leiba, Cortlandt Manor, New York

The time has passed so swiftly since Ralph died. As we gear up for our trek to hold a memorial in the Wind River Range I am saddend once again that he is not here. I really miss his guidance, advice and expertise. Life sure isn't the same. But we must carry on, and so we shall. October 01, 2008 I spent a wonderful summer in 1995 at Betty's house in Brooksville. I will always remember Ralph smiling with a mischievous and intelligent glint in his eyes.
I did not get to see him all that often that summer (he and Betty always seemed to be off on hikes and spending time at his house in Gainesville!), but I admired how comfortable he and Betty were in each other's company, especially as they spent quiet mornings together reading in the great room.
My condolences to the family and to Betty, who generously opened her home to me for a special summer in Florida. ~ Christina Chan, Calgary, Alberta

Dearest Grandpa, I shall surely miss you for a long time, Grandpa, but every tree and rock and wild flower I encounter will remind me of the hikes I went on with you; every cloud will remind me of the flights we shared. Every day when I rise to a beautiful sun rise or go to sleep looking out my window at the brilliant stars, it will remind me of you and your unbridled joy in nature and life and family. You are still here on earth with me through the many lovely memories we made, and for that I will be eternally grateful. I love you, Grandpa..... so very, very much. Your Young Lady Always, Kelly Boal PS- My Algebra is great..... As a matter of fact, I have the top grade in my class thanks to a very special tutor. ~ Kelly Boal, Waldo, Florida

My condolences to family and friends.
I was a student in his feared Numerical Methods class. I learned tremendously from his emphasis on taking a holistic approach to problem solving and somehow earned an A.
He was a solid sponsor and advisor of our student chapter of the ACM and I enjoyed discussing the sometimes challenging dynamics of academic and institutional computing -- of which he was a pioneer.
He was very proud of his "one line" APL solution of the Eight Queens problem, imparting a sense of delight with developing algorithms and solving problems.
I wish I had flown with him, but will in spirit. I hope he knew the impact he had on his students and colleagues. ~ Bradley Spatz, Gainesville, Florida

Dear fellow family members & friends:
My Uncle Ralph was definitely one of a kind! I will always remember his unusual choice of gift to me on the occasion of my wedding in 1990--a cooler full of Florida alligator meat, delivered to my doorstep! Even as a young child I realized that Uncle Ralph marched to his own drummer, and that was a good and wonderful thing! It never ceased to amaze me to see him wearing sandals in the dead of winter when he came up north to NJ to visit. He always made me smile, and I will savor memories of his zest for life and his love for his family.

We are so saddened by the loss of Ralph. You have both been wonderful neighbors and hosts. I only wish I had the chance to talk with Ralph about his work at China Lake, to which I too did some work but didn't know we had a common link until reading his obituary. If there is anything we can do to ease your pain, help with the house or whatever, you know you can count on us. Please don't hesitate to contact us for anything.

My Dearest Daddy,
I want you to know how very much I love and miss you!
I want you to know how growing up with you as my daddy and sharing your gifts from the heart have made me whom I am today. These gifts I hold dear because you gave them to me.
You gave me the gift of a father's bond with his daughter.
You gave me the gift of a great education.
You gave me the gift of semantics, and a rich love of language.
You gave me the gift of loving to learn.
You gave me the gift of empathy and generosity.
You gave me the gift of manners and taught me how to behave as a proper young lady always should.
You gave me the gift of travel and experiencing new places.
You gave me the gift of humor through your quick wit and twinkling blue eyes.
You gave me the gift of faith in never giving up on my prayer to become a teacher and mother one day.
And most important of all, you gave me the gift of a lifetime of neverending love.
I will never forget your beautiful gifts and will always love and appreciate you for being such a special part of my life.
You will live on forever in a precious place in my heart where I will love, admire and respect you always!
Hugs and Kisses,
Your Tish ~ Elizabeth Doubrava, San Antonio, Texas

Ralph was around 50 when I met him, I filled his cave diving tanks at Merritt Enterprises where I worked part time as a teenager. We became friends, he and Chuck took me on as a cave diving partner, we dove together for five years around Gainesville and as far away as Madison Blue, Peacock Slough, Devils Eye and many other places. I remember more than once I wanted to go a 'little further' in the cave, he would write on his slate, 'Let's live to dive another day.' He brought a candelabra to picnics at dive sites, what a lively character he was! May we all live such interesting lives! ~ Lisa Floyd, Jacksonville, Florida

My first memories of Dr Selfridge were in the early seventies. My dad had a T hangar next to his at the airport. I remember he has just got his beloved N8189Z and Cessna 205. I remember he always had his dogs with him, they loved the airport. Doc as I called him was just a heck of a good guy I have spent many a hour talking airplanes and flying with him. I earned his trust by maintaining 8189Z for the past 25 years. Last year he painfully sold 8189Z to a freind of mine I hooked him up with and kept the aircraft based in Gainesville . I last saw him maybe 3 weeks ago and was deeply saddened to here of his passing. It was a privelage to know him I will miss him alot. ~ scott lambert, gainesville, Florida

I attended UF betweeen 1987-1992 and had Dr. Selfridge's terrifying numerical methods course. Probably the proudest accomplishment I had at UF was turning a weak C into an A by acing the final. Through that final he taught me to stop periodically and stand back to survey the land, because sometimes the answers hide right under your nose.
I also listened with envy to his tales of the trails after he would return from his summer breaks. I follow in his footsteps trying to find those lost wild places filled with only my presence and the amazing beauty of this world.
Dr. Selfridge, although he will be missed, lives on through the lessons he taught. ~ Philip Kufeldt, San Jose, California

My deepest sympathies to Dr. Selfridge's family. He always had a twinkle in his eye and a kind word. I worked with Dr. Selfridge for over 15 years in the CIS Department. He was a kind and caring human being who always made you laugh when you really needed it. He stopped by my office a few weeks ago to say hello and to "just give me a hug". I had not seen Dr. Selfridge for quite some time so that visit will always be special. ~ Mary Slone, Gainesville, Florida

We had the pleasure of having Ralph as our neighbor directly across the street for 10 years. We have fond memories of many cookouts which he always invited us to. We loved hearing his stories of his adventures as he traveled the world. He had such a zest for life. He loved his family, his work,( he never wanted to give up his office at UF), retirement so he could travel more, his green bike, his plane and his convertibles! He so enjoyed playing his classical music while he worked on his Sunbeam in the driveway. Rain or shine Ralph could be found out "training" in the neighborhood with full pack for his next hiking adventure! Ralph was one of the most kind, adventurous, unique and brilliant friend we have had! Ralph we will miss you! ~ Ed and Alora Haynes, Gainesville, Florida

The way I heard it, he flew his Cessna 205 from Gainesville to a backcountry airstrip in the Wind River Range in one day, spent twelve days backpacking, flew back to Gainesville in one day, and was ready to teach on Monday. That's a classy way to spend a two-week vacation.
Seemed like every time we had dinner with Ralph, he'd offer two toasts: "To we'uns, by far the best!" and "To the lydees, Gor' bless 'em!" ~ Mallory Selfridge, Eastford, Connecticut

RALPH -- I'll always remember your smile -- that inscrutable Ernest Hemingway smile -- particularly after the first glass of wine!! And thank you for the privilege of being married to your wonderful sister, Jennifer.
I'll never forget the terrific time we spent with you and Betty on the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of your escape from England just before the Battle of Britain in 1940. And how Selfridges [the store's staff] made us feel at home.
Rest well, old chap. ~ Robert Marchisotto, Princeton Junction, New Jersey

Ralph was to me always a wonderful brother.
When we were 7 and 8, we used to walk up to Kensington High Stree to take the bus to Colet Court, our prep school in London. Ralph noticed that the buses that worked all the way, nos. 11 and 73, were both prime numbers, while a bad one, 27, was a cube and went to Streatham.
One of the worst parts of his life was when he was eight and came down for over two months with mastoiditis, which kept him in bed. Bed was in the top floor of our house at Friars Lawn, after we had moved from Kensington.
I mention those because nobody else can remember those, not even Jennifer, though the mastoid memory may be there.
But joy and happiness were always his, and he gave them freely away. He also shared his vigorous and active intellectual curiosity and his other activities. ~ Oliver Selfridge, Belmont, Massachusetts

I remember having dinner with Ralph as a newly-wed. He asked me and my husband, Carl, if we would like our steak "rare or ruint". I still use his expression (with the rolled r's) regularly, and think of him with a smile every time! ~ Crystal Miles, Gainesville, Florida

As Ralph's only sister, I am flooded by happy memories of our childhood together, and of the not-frequent-enough times we were together since then. I am also flooded by feelings of great gratitude to all his many friends, and especially to Betty and the many members of his extended family, who helped make his later years so very happy and fulfilling. I know it's hackneyed to say this, but please accept both my gratitude and my deepest sympathies. But let's CELEBRATE who Ralph was and what he has meant to all of us. Hey, "Twas brillig, and the slithy toves did gyre and gimble in the wabe: All mimsy were the borogoves, and the mome raths outgrabe." ~ Jennifer Macleod, Princeton Junction, New Jersey

I am very grateful to have known Ralph these last 19 years. He was very kind to my children and me and accepted us into his family so graciously. The love of nature and flying that he has given to us is forever a part of him we will cherish. He is greatly missed and loved. ~ Debra Boal, Waldo, Florida

Before I met with Dr Mabrie, I had a restylane injection done once by a nurse practitioner. She ended up making me look very bumpy and worse than when I was before and ever since that experience I was very hesitant to get fillers again. But I really couldn't get the thought out of my mind, of giving fillers another try to enhance my appearance.
I like many Asian women have a problem with a deflated nose bridge. Not only that but I have a pretty squashed looking face (i'm sure my insomnia also exacerbated this). I wanted to get fillers on my nose to extend the bridge and to sharpen the tip.
Dr Mabrie must have seen many patients like me because he knew exactly how I wanted my nose bridge extended and where to inject on the tip of my nose to elongate it. This definitely helped give the illusion of lengthening my squashed up face.
After taking some pictures and prepping my nose with local anesthesia, Dr Mabrie injected my nose like a pro, following up with me, every step of the way. I really liked how he would say a few things about what he was doing while working on my nose because it gave me an idea of the process that went through.
When I got to see my nose I was very surprised! I didn't know if should have flowered Dr Mabrie with flattery on how much I loved my new nose so I didn't really say much except how natural it felt. I was expecting to notice some foreign object inserted underneath the nose bridge but surprisingly it felt like my own skin.
The only qualms I have about the procedure was that I had a bruised spot on the middle of my nose. I tried covering it up with makeup and that helped.
Dr Mabrie also suggested that some other time, I could get my eye bags done if I wanted. I opted out even though I know he's a great "injectionist", I dont want to risk any bruising there.
Overall I am very happy with the procedure, it is very pricey. I work part time at a firm so I definitely was using my savings for this. I'm not sure If I'll do this regularly but definitely during monumental moments of my life.

Before I met with Dr Mabrie, I had a restylane injection done once by a nurse practitioner. She ended up making me look very bumpy and worse than when I was before and ever since that experience I was very hesitant to get fillers again. But I really couldn't get the thought out of my mind, of giving fillers another try to enhance my appearance.
2 days later: my nose has deflated a bit,...
Something weird I noticed is that the injected part on my bridge is a lighter color than the rest of my skin. I'm trying to cover up with concealer but it still shows through a bit.
I have a follow up appointment in two weeks but I'm wondering if its worth spending more money to continually keep the bridge up.
Third Update: Yay!! So the brusining and...
Earlier in my review I mentioned how natural the filler feels. Definitely cannot notice it's there UNLESS, I touch the area. I guess this is a good thing so that I can gauge how much filler is metabolizing.
One last thing before I go. I am known to be the most frugal person (yes, i'm one of those people who take extra napkins from McDonalds), yet $1,500 I feel is worth the investment for the initial cost of this procedure. Dr Mabrie is understanding of tight financial circumstances. He offered to use two fillers on me for the same price I would have gotten with one filler! Plus his office offers Aesthetic Rewards, discounts for Radiesse treatments.
His staff also is very prompt with checking up on you and making sure everything is alright.
Fourth Update: I had my follow up appointment...
Again let me emphasize that Dr Mabrie's injects like no injector ever could. He does it in a way that doesn't leave any visible needle marks.
Google and Realself. So I did my research and read about how Dr Mabrie was not only one of best surgeons when it comes to injecting fillers but also specializes in non-surgical rhinoplasty. It was really hard to resist to make that appointment and I'm glad I did. He was very courteous with me and went over a brief explanation on what would be best for my face. I didn't even have to say or ask much because he seemed to be a mind reader.

Politicians insist that Canada has a skills shortage. The Conservative government's latest budget highlights the issue, and Immigration Minister Jason Kenney has been out selling its solutions to what he calls the "bizarre paradox of Canadians without jobs and jobs without workers." The government has evidently grown frustrated with years of investments in apprenticeship schemes that haven't paid off, as Mr. Kenney told the Calgary Herald editorial board recently that "Canadian employers have not been investing enough in apprenticeships." Perhaps it's the government's attempts to diagnose the problem that have fallen short.Report Typo/Error

Fourteen years ago the Montana Supreme Court ruled that a state law criminalizing gay sex violates Montana's constitution, yet the Montana Legislature has repeatedly failed to scrub the language, which places homosexuality in the same legal category as bestiality, from the books. This session's effort, sponsored by Sen. Tom Facey, D-Missoula, died in a House committee last month after passage in the Senate.
The legislature's inaction was not, it turns out, another non-priority falling off the too-long to-do list. Rather, it's homophobic lawmakers subtly suggesting that homosexual acts should still be outlawed, the Supreme Court—and equal rights in general—be damned. In fact, at least one lawmaker, Rep. Ken Peterson, R-Billings, an attorney, argues that the archaic law may still apply in certain situations.
Which situations? According to Peterson, chair of the House Judiciary Committee, there are at least two prosecutable offenses—felonies punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a $50,000 fine. One is the "recruitment" of non-gays. "Homosexuals can't go out into the heterosexual community and try to recruit people, or try to enlist them in homosexual acts," Peterson says. He provides an example: "'Here, young man, your hormones are raging. Let's go in this bedroom, and we'll engage in some homosexual acts. You'll find you like it.'" Peterson hasn't actually seen this happen, he says, because "I don't associate with that group of people at all... I've associated with mainstream people all my life."
The other offense, in Peterson's legal opinion, is the public display of homosexuality, since he believes the Supreme Court's decision only applies to private acts behind closed doors. Being gay in public, he says, is a wholly different matter:
"In my mind, if they were engaging in acts in public that could be construed as homosexual, it would violate that statute. It has to be more than affection. It has to be overt homosexual acts of some kind or another... If kissing goes to that extent, yes. If it's more than that, yes."
Fortunately, Peterson's "interpretation" is his own daydream. It will never fly, according to Larry Epstein, vice president of the Montana County Attorneys Association, which is composed of people who prosecute felony crimes across the state. "The statute will not be enforced as written—ever," Epstein says. "We take our marching orders not only from the legislature but from the courts in which we appear."

I've been working on a theme, and the only problems so far are with IE6 and IE7 . The deal with IE7 is that the footer is showing up incorrectly. I can't tell if the problem is with the HTML or the CSS , maybe I just need to look at it with fresh eyes tomorrow.
Heres the link: Link
Thanks in advance.
ps. If anyone can shed some light on the problem with IE6 as well, that would be greatly appreciated.
you can add Firebug Lite to an IE html temporarily, try that and see what you get
link broken?
Oh, forgot to update this post. Sorry.
I fixed it, everything works. Now just to fix the z-index bug with the drop down menu.
Thanks for the help

We're in the early stages of a hugely exciting year for English cricket, featuring home and away clashes with New Zealand, back-to-back Ashes series and a Champions Trophy played at home.
We're all motivated by what is on our doorstep and by what we have the chance to achieve but we have to think in the present, otherwise things can go awry very quickly. Right now, that means focusing on the first of our three Tests against New Zealand, which starts here in Dunedin in a few hours.
New Zealand are the only one of the major Test-playing nations I haven't yet faced in my England career. While it will be nice to complete the set, being back in Dunedin has reminded me of a hugely important phase of my career, one which was vital in setting me on the road to international cricket.
I played here for Otago, the province of which Dunedin is the main city, during the winter of 2005-06. I came in as their overseas player and there is a certain responsibility that comes with that and makes you step up. I learned a lot about myself during that period.
I was living on my own, which I'd never done before, and then you have to deal with the expectation from your team-mates that you will perform consistently and be a leader. It was about growing as an individual and those kind of experiences help you adjust your thinking.
There are fewer domestic matches in the New Zealand system than there are in the English one, so there is a lot more time for practice. There isn't much going on in Dunedin either, so when you have time on your own, it's a case of making sure you put in the extra training and the extra practice you need — and I made sure I did.
When I had free time during the day, I'd make sure I went to the indoor nets to practise on my own against the bowling machine. I'd take myself off to the nearby athletics track and do extra shuttle runs. I might call Mike Hesson, our coach at the time who is now working with the senior New Zealand side, to talk about something specific, or go and work on my bowling.
It's very easy to do these things when they're organised for you by someone else but a little bit more difficult when you have to do them on your own. When you manage it, you have that satisfaction and confidence going into a game, knowing that you have prepared a little bit more than the opposition.
I had a good stint with Otago and was awarded the State Medal for the "most outstanding player in men's domestic cricket" for that season.
I went back to Warwickshire, had a good summer in 2006 and then the following year, I got my first chance with the England senior side. I played in two Twenty20 matches against the West Indies and then, two years later, I was in the Test team and I've managed to keep my place ever since.
So the lessons I learned playing for Otago were very important, and I've taken them with me through my career. It's also good to see that Mike has progressed from developing the Otago side I played in to coaching the national team. It's been good to catch up with him during this tour, although we want to make sure he's not a happy man at the end of the series.
My last Test innings was the 143 at Nagpur, which helped us secure the draw we needed to win that series in India. It's now important we keep that momentum going by trying to do the same here, which will take us nicely into the English summer.
The return of Test matches has meant the return of Andy Flower, who missed the limited-overs games here and in India as part of the new shared coaching structure.
Ashley Giles, who I know extremely well from Warwickshire, was in charge for those games and the one-day team made progress in India, even though we lost 3-2. We then won the one-day series here 2-1, and he and Andy have many of the same principles, particularly in terms of making sure the basics are done well.
Very few England tours are structured this way, with the Test matches coming after the limited-overs games. It means you have to practise slightly differently, placing more emphasis on leaving the ball and adjusting to the tempo at which you normally play a Test innings. Whatever the order, the important thing for us is to get the same result in the Tests and start the year on a winning note.

Mission Statement
The mission of the Department of Accounting and Finance of the Joseph M. Bryan School of Business and Economics is (1) to provide high quality programs of education for accounting and finance majors at the undergraduate and graduate levels, (2) to provide high quality courses to support the UNCG and Bryan School educational missions as they relate accounting and finance to global processes, sustainable enterprise, innovation and ethical awareness, (3) to stimulate and support high quality research, scholarship, and publication, (4) to provide service, largely through committee representation to the University, the Bryan School, the Department, the academic accounting and finance communities, and the accounting profession, and (5) to foster faculty interaction with the public in ways which enhance the common good.
The primary goal of the department is to provide programs of quality education in accounting and finance at the undergraduate and graduate levels. The undergraduate program provides an excellent foundation for careers in industry and is sufficiently broad to qualify graduates for a wide range of entry-level, business-related positions; and prepares students for further graduate-level studies in areas such as accounting, finance, law, and business administration.
The Department of Accounting and Finance also offers a Bachelor of Science degree with a major in finance. The undergraduate finance program deals with the theory, organization, and operation of the financial system from both a market and a managerial viewpoint. Students are expected to develop analytical abilities and to present their analyses in both written and oral form.

Ruger LCR (5 shot revolver)... 13 oz. in the .38 version ($400 range)... 17 oz. in the .357 version ($450 range).
I've been looking for a good snubnose revolver to carry concealed as a BUG on my ankle. While I am a big fan of autos (my main concealed carry is a Glock 23 and is one of my favorite guns), I would prefer a revolver as a backup because of their reliability and simplicity. Ideally, I would like something in a .38 special (+p would be nice), double action (or shrouded DA/SA), inexpensive (preferably around $200-$300 for used but good condition, but I could probably go up to around $450 if necessary), and can be easily concealed in an ankle holster. Any recommendations?
On a side note, one gun that looks like it might be a good candidate is the S&W 642 Centennial. Does anyone have any experience with this gun and if so, what do you like/dislike about it? How much does it typically go for used?
Thanks in advance for your comments!
Ruger LCR (5 shot revolver)... 13 oz. in the .38 version ($400 range)... 17 oz. in the .357 version ($450 range).
Thanks for the info Eli! This is really helpful, especially the info about their resale value and your experiences using them. It sounds like you would recommend the J-Frame S&Ws above anything else. Are there any other brands you like?I've had a number of J-frame Smiths over the years, and I believe they are worth a little extra. They also have a resale value higher than most others, both for the name, and the quality. Used Smith snubbies don't last long in the dealers showroom, but you probably can find one to bid on online. Be advised that an online purchase may have significant associated costs due to shipping legalities so be careful. I have not owned a 642 stainless, but have had two 442s (blued version, same gun). No problems whatever, great guns, and if you learn to "stage" the trigger pretty darn accurate. Snappy recoil with +P, but manageable. There is nothing I don't like about them, they are American classics for sure. Loaded with standard .38 spl. they make great trail guns (where dangerous beasts are not a factor), and I enjoy plinking with mine just to see what I can hit. I know money is tight, but I won't skimp on SD weapons. As for the new Ruger and Smith .38s, well, I like to let the dust settle on new guns so I am not on the recall lists should they appear.
I like the Ruger SP101 snubnose in DA only. It is quite a bit heavier though and you might not like that in an ankle rig, especially if you need to RUN!!! Then again, you can get it in .357 mag. if you want to, and that added weight makes for a more manageable .357. And the SP101 it is built like a little tank if you intend to shoot a lot. I don't believe much in trying to save money when buying something I may be using to defend myself or my family. Is a couple hundred bucks really worth it? For that reason I stay away from Taurus, Rossi, etc. The one "off" brand I have is a Charter Arms Bulldog Pug in .44 special. I got that because I am an old and like those great big bullets. I had it magnaported, fitted with recoil reducing grips, and had it checked out by my gunsmith even though it was new! I love the gun, but don't carry it. I know times are tough, so if I had to choose an economy .38, it would be the Charter. They make one that is a virtual clone of the Smith for a couple hundred less. My carry guns are:
Beretta 92FS for full size high capacity (15 + 1 rounds, 9mm Speer Gold Dots)
S@W 442 with .38+P Corbon DPX right front pocket holster
Beretta 21 Stainless .22, CCI Stingers, IWB holster for last resorts
If I carry all three, the Beretta is on my right hip, the 442 is crossdraw IWB left hip, and the .22 is in a right front pocket holster.
I just got my new "house" gun, a S@W 686 7 shot .357., haven't picked a load yet.
Good luck and happy shooting!
Hey, Eli, just how many shots can you get out of that Charter Arms .44 revolver, before something goes wrong?
Jean inherited a .38 Special Charter Arms snubbie from her dance mentor, but it'll choke up long before it has fired the fifth shot out of its cylinder. The problem has been diagnosed as cylinder end-play, which allows fired cartridges to move rearward as they go off, and jam against the gun's recoil plate.
I've just put it away, rather than taking it apart and shimming the cylinder. That's too bad, because it has a very good trigger, both in SA and DA.
Regards, Eli
[QUOTE=I think what I'll do is save up a little and keep an eye out for a used Ruger or S&W in the local classifieds/pawn shops. If something doesn't turn up after too long, I can always try one of those online auction sites (I've never bought a gun on one before so I'm a little hesitant to just jump right in ). Thanks for the advice and ideas![/QUOTE]
Excellent decision my friend.
Good clean fun!
Ruger LCR in the .357 Magnum/.38 Spl. is going to be my next carry weapon.
Ruger came out with the .38 Spl. version first,but has now made the conversion into
the .357 mag/.38 spl...A little over your stated cost however.It seems to be going
in the high $400 range.It was voted Revolver of the year in 2009 or 2010.A lightweight
snubbie that can put out a heck of a punch.I'm shopping around for this weapon
now,hopefully I'll find a decent price.
I bought my 642 new about a year ago for just over $400. And, put CT grips on it for about $220.
I've posted several times about this gun. And my lady friend who bought a Ruger LCR at the same time, about the same price. Both guns are now available with factory installed CT grips.
Both are very good, in my humble opinion. I've shot both a lot. My laser grips are worth their weight in gold. The enclosed hammer keeps lint and crap out of my carry gun. I think her Ruger LCR is just as good.
As always, a lightweight snubby is a handful. Learning and using lasergrips is a GREAT plus.
IMHO, saving a bit (even a couple of hundred bucks) is NOT a good tradeoff. If you are carrying
a gun in an ankle holster,
it is NOT because you may have to defend Aunt Matilda at the Mall sometime in the distant future.
Quality and reliability trump EVERYTHING ELSE if you are ever in a SHTF situation.
Just my two cents. Your mileage may vary.
You didn't ask me, but...
In my estimation, lasers are not worth the expense and trouble.
• You can't always see the laser dot, especially in a reasonably well-lit situation. The dot is never bright enough, and gets swamped by the ambient illumination.
• Even in the dark, you need to be able to get on target without the laser. You don't have time to "follow the bouncing dot" around until it coincides with the target. The laser dot serves only to verify that you have indeed found the target, and to notify your target that he is at risk.
• Murphy's Law says that your batteries will die, just as your life-and-death confrontation begins. You must not learn to rely upon the laser dot.
At short range (your "10 or 15 feet") you don't even need your sights. Instead, if your pistol is up at eye level, use the silhouette shape of the gun to reassure yourself that you're on target. If you haven't time to get the gun up to eye level, you can pretty successfully hip-shoot from just above your holster, if you've practiced it.
A laser is a nice training device: Observe the dot to see how steady your trigger control is, as you squeeze off a shot (dry-fire or live).
Other than that, it's mostly a gadget: a gimmick to get you to spend money on accessories.
Personally, I had roughly the same opinion, until I came into possession of a S&W 642CT, the Airweight .38 Special 'hammerless' model that came from the factory with Crimson Trace Laser grips. Over time, I came to appreciate the value of the laser, especially for practice, and especially for folks who normally would require eyeglasses, when shooting. The trigger control techniques I was able to practice so easily (and therefore frequently), helped me to shoot all of my handguns a little bit better, particularly the short barreled ones.
Also a factor in my opinion is the necessity, in recent years, of my having to resort to wearing weak reading glasses, in order to be able to focus on the front sight of a handgun. There is always a chance that in any self defense situation, a person could find himself without the eyeglasses he needs to aim his handgun, or that he may need to fire a shot from an awkward position that does not allow him to look down the full length of the barrel.
Of course, the counter-argument is, "what if the batteries are dead?" The answer is that if you have practiced properly, you are no worse off than before, because you still have your iron sights. Besides, the batteries last a long time, and are easily tested, and easily replaced, so anyone who properly maintains his self-defense weapon will not find this to be a problem.
I have CT Laser grips on all three of my 'pocket' sized pistols, and recommend them. But I also stress heavily that nobody should allow himself to become dependent on them. Practice live fire with iron sights, and dry-fire with the laser. For the most part, the only time I ever live-fire, using the laser sight, is to check the zero. By practicing in this way, you can leave the laser on, and if it works when you need it, fine. If it fails you, you lose nothing, because the iron sights are your default, anyway. If it's there when you need it, all the better.
I consider the laser to be just one more tool in the self defense tool box.
Personally, if I simply had no choice but ankle carry, I would carry nothing larger or heavier than a Ruger LCP. The .380 may be slightly weaker than a .38 Special, depending on the loads selected, but it's function would probably be reliable enough, if properly cared for. I've tried ankle carry with a S&W 642CT, and it was way too heavy and bulky to suit me.

CHICAGO -- The ball popped out of Matt Holliday's glove and for one agonizing moment, an entire stadium full of players and fans seemed to gasp.
Everyone but the left fielder, that is.
He stuck out his bare hand and snared the ball, cradled it against his chest and Colorado escaped with a 5-3 win over the Chicago White Sox on Sunday.
While Brad Hawpe hit the go-ahead home run and Aaron Cook earned his career-high 10th win, Holliday's game-ending catch stole the spotlight and sealed the Rockies' eighth win in 11 games.
The White Sox loaded the bases against Brian Fuentes in the ninth on Juan Uribe's leadoff single and two two-out walks by Jermaine Dye and Jim Thome. Joe Crede hit a pop fly that Holliday nearly dropped as he avoided colliding with shortstop Omar Quintanilla.
A tense moment?
"Not really. Just kind of in the middle of it," Holliday said rather nonchalantly.
A backtracking Quintanilla, who was calling for the ball, had no idea it popped loose.
"Really?" Quintanilla asked reporters. "Wow. I didn't know that. I thought he caught it."
He did, eventually.
Hawpe's solo drive off Jose Contreras (6-5) in the sixth put Colorado ahead 4-3 after Dye tied it with a two-run shot in the fifth, sending the White Sox to their fifth loss in six games. That was just enough to make a winner of Cook (10-3), who yielded three runs and 10 hits while striking out three and walking two in six innings.
The right-hander, who missed the final six weeks of the 2007 regular season with an injured oblique muscle, passed his previous high of nine wins two years ago. He has won three consecutive starts and is 4-0 in his last five.
Fuentes earned his 11th save in 14 chances despite the drama in the ninth.
When the ball left Crede's bat, Fuentes thought, "OK, it's an out," but he started to get nervous as Holliday and Quintanilla closed in on each other.
"I was hoping Matt would just kick him out of the way," Fuentes said.
When Holliday finally made the catch, Fuentes turned to catcher Chris Iannetta and laughed. They could do it after a dramatic escape and another win in what might be the early stages of a big turnaround.
Iannetta added a solo homer in the ninth, his second in three games. Scott Podsednik chipped in with a pair of RBI singles against his former team as Colorado took two of three from the AL Central leaders and continued to show some life after snapping an eight-game losing streak.
Dye's homer aside, it was another difficult day for a White Sox offense that is struggling to score and may without their slugging first baseman for a while.
Paul Konerko was a late scratch after straining a muscle near his ribs and chest wall and could be headed to the disabled list.
"I've never had anything happen like that," he said. "I don't have any answers for you. I took a swing and that ended the day. So we'll see where it is on Tuesday."
Chicago pounded out 61 runs in a 7-0 homestand against Kansas City and Minnesota following manager Ozzie Guillen's tirade in Tampa Bay, but the Sox scored just six while getting swept at Detroit.
They stalled again over the weekend.
Jorge De La Rosa and three relievers combined on a three-hitter for the Rockies in a 2-0 win on Saturday, and Cook looked like he was on a similar path early on.
"Offensively we've been streaky," Dye said.
Chicago finally scored in the fourth and tied it at 3-3 in the fifth when the slumping Dye came through, sending a 1-0 fastball over the wall in right-center for his 11th homer.
The White Sox threatened to take the lead, but instead of a big inning there was a big mistake.
Thome walked and moved to second on Crede's single, but got doubled off second on Nick Swisher's liner to left.
Hawpe gave the Rockies a 4-3 lead with two out in the sixth when he drove his seventh homer -- second in three games -- beyond the reach of a leaping center fielder Alexei Ramirez.
Contreras lost his second in a row, yielding four runs -- three earned -- and seven hits in 6 2/3 innings. He struck out four and walked two.
- The Rockies recalled catcher Edwin Bellorin from Triple-A Colorado Springs with Yorvit Torrealba serving the first of a two-game suspension Sunday and optioned infielder Jon Herrera to the Triple-A club. Torrealba was suspended for a fight with the Los Angeles Dodgers' Matt Kemp on June 3.
- With Konerko out Swisher moved from left field to first, Brian Anderson shifted from center to left, Ramirez went from second to center and Uribe started at second base.
- Pierzynski has an 11-game hitting streak.

I figured I would start working on point shooting today at the range. It is public so I am rather limited in what I can do. I would hold it at a ready position then draw up and fire. The most I could probably do is leave the gun on the table then pick up and fire.
Anyhow does anyone have any tips for point shooting? Really starting at nothing and would rather get some good input now before developing bad habits. I have a few courses tentatively planned, but I am on my own until spring. Any pointers or directions would be helpful. Even books or something.
By the way, I was not sure if this is the right spot. Feel free to move this.

Life and supplemental health insurer, Torchmark Corp. (TMK) has issued notes worth $425 million. The issuance consists of $300 million of 3.58% Senior Notes that will mature in 2022 and 5.875% Junior Subordinated Debentures maturing in 2052.
Torchmark will use $200 million from the above proceeds to fund the proposed acquisition of Family Heritage Life Insurance Company. The company announced this acquisition last month and expects to close the purchase by the fourth quarter of 2012.
The remaining funds from the Senior Notes offering will be utilized for meeting the working capital requirements, which includes discharging of the $94.1 million in principal amount outstanding of the company's 7.375% Notes that mature on August 1, 2013. On the other hand, the proceeds from the Junior Subordinated Notes will be used to redeem all of the $120 million of 7.10% Trust Originated Preferred Securities, due 2046.
The Senior as well as Junior Notes are carrying ratings from Standard & Poor's. The rating agency has assigned senior unsecured debt rating of 'A' to senior unsecured notes due in 2022, and 'BBB+' to junior subordinated debt due in 2052.
Though the company's financial leverage will go northwards with the issue of the abovementioned notes, the rating agency observes that the new leverage position will remain appropriate for its ratings and risk profile. The company's debt servicing capability as measured by its fixed-charge coverage ratio of 11.2x also remains very strong and in line with its ratings.
Another rating agency Moody's has rated Torchmark's senior debt with 'Baa1' and junior subordinated debt with 'Baa2.'
Torchmark competes with Assurant Inc. ( AIZ) and currently retains a Zacks #3 Rank, which translates into a short-term Hold rating. We are also maintaining our long-term Neutral recommendation on its shares.

Bargain Performance
Bill Schock, the founder of California-based W.D. Schock Corp., got a lot of things right in his time, not the least of which when he turned to his son Tom back in 1976 and said, Its a great little boat. Lets build it. In this way the Santana 20 was born with, as Tom recalls it, no demographic studies, no market research, nothing. We didnt know who wed sell it to.
Thirty-five years and more than 900 boats later, the Santana 20 remains a going concern, with a reputation as a bargain performer. Three new fleets have formed in the last two years, the newest in Long Lake, Maine, for a total of 49. Past class president Derek Martin spent a full year researching the Santana 20 before committing himself to a new boat to sail out of San Diego, California, and says he has no regrets.
Basically, the Santana 20 is a dinghy with a four-foot keel, Martin says. You dont have to sell a kidney to own one. For $4,000 or less, you can buy a used boat in great condition, ready to race, with a trailer. The culture of the class is good, too. Theres openness and sharing. Thats as important to me as the boat.

Hospices consider themselves places that practise a holistic form of terminal care, encompassing physical and psychological symptoms, and also the social and spiritual support for a dying patient. So far, the underlying ethical principles have been treated predominantly in terms of a normative theoretical discussion. The interview study discussed in this paper is a qualitative investigation into general and hospice-related conceptions of morality among full-time and voluntary workers in German inpatient hospices. It examines moral conflicts and efforts leading to their solution. The main ideas identified include moral neutrality towards the patients and their requests, the capability of acceptance, the idea of self-restraint with respect to the dying patient and the principle of respect for the natural course of dying. Essential triggers for moral conflicts were the inadequate education of patients, problems of acceptance in view of incurable disease, and disagreements between members of patients' families. The interviewees expressed their scepticism towards formal institutions of ethical counselling. The study has shown a type of virtue ethics that forms an integral part of the overall concept of hospice care, which cannot be treated separately from a holistic idea of care at the end of life.

The University Art Museum is pleased to present Lothar Schmitz: Survival Strategies. Lothar Schmitz is an artist and a physicist. His installations combine intuitive aesthetic studies and rational scientific inquiry in order to investigate the rapidly changing relationship and interdependence between nature and culture. This exhibition includes a variety of new site specific installations and features miniaturized three−dimensional synthetic and simulated landscapes that combine natural substances–minerals, salts, earth, moss, and sulfur with artificial materials such as synthetic plants and trees, acrylic domes, and Astroturf. These controlled environments include a large salt flat in Permeation (2008), to be constructed in the center court gallery, and a multi−channel video installation Biomorph (2008), which investigates the biological processes of plant cells, using time−lapsed imagery. According to Schmitz: "The installations reflect ecological concerns and comment on the loss of the metaphysical quality in our relationship to nature. They also critique the notion of nature as an idealized sanctuary."
