Arlington Torpedo Sedan
Rollston & Company
Gordon Buehrig
Chassis Num:
Engine Num: J-513
Widely known as 'Twenty Grand', reflecting its 1932 selling price, this supercharged Duesenberg with chassis number 2539 and engine J-513, was designed by Gordon Buehrig as a show car for the Chicago Century of Progress Exposition of 1933-1934. This graceful one-off closed-coupled design is considered by many to be one of the most beautiful Duesenbergs built.
The current owners acquired this Duesenberg in 1978. Before undertaking a restoration, Mr. Buehring and former Duesenberg president Harold Ames were both consulted to ensure an accurate restoration. The car emerged from the shop at San Sylmar exactly as it appeared the day it left the factory for the World's Fair. Since that time, this wheeled sculpture has resided in the Grand Salon of the Nethercutt Collection in Sylmar, California.

This 1933 Duesenberg SJ Riviera Phaeton (SJ528), one of only 36 SJs produced, was purchased in June of 1934 by Lt. Col. Jacob Schick, best known for the invention of the cartridge-style Schick Razor and the first electric 'dry razor.' Schick kept the car for two years before trading it in on a new car. The second owner was C.H. Oshei of Detroit, Michigan who purchased the car in October of 1936. Oshei traded J107, a LaGrande dual-cowl phaeton, in the transaction.
Oshei sold SJ528 in 1941 to a Chicago-area Duesenberg dealer named John Troka, who resold the car to A.E. Sullivan of Rockford, Illinois. Sullivan sold the car to Margarite Feuer, of Rockford, Illinois, who kept it only a short while before selling it to a musician named Vaughn. In the late 1940s, Vaughn sold the car back to Troka. While in Troka's care, the supercharger was removed and used for another project. The car was then sold to Art Grossman of Chicago, Illinois. Grossman intended to undertake a restoration but instead sold the car in April 1950 to Harry Schultzinger of Cincinnati, Ohio, who immediately began restoring the car.
During the restoration process, Schultzinger replaced the frame with one from J551 (frame number 2577). The rest of SJ528 remained intact, including the engine, body, drivetrain components, etc. Schultzinger gave SJ528 a number of 'improvements,' including the installation of a five-speed transmission from a truck, 17-inch wheels, and an engine rebuild using components from J467.
Schultzinger kept the car for many years before selling it to Dr. Don Vesley of Louisiana in 1975. The car was sold in 1983 to a Florida collector named Rick Carroll, who undertook a second restoration, this time in red, and reinstalled an original supercharger, transmission and 19-inch wheels.
Bob Bahre of Oxford, Maine purchased the car sometime in 1986. Later, in 1988, Phoenix, Arizona-based dealer Leo Gephardt advertised the car for sale, before it passed on to the late Noel Thompson, a prominent New Jersey collector. Thompson sold the car to the Imperial Palace, where it was prominently featured in the Duesenberg Room for many years before Dean Kruse of Auburn, Indiana acquired it as part of a multiple-car purchase in 1999.
The next owner commissioned the car's third – and most comprehensive – restoration. The 'nut-and-bolt' restoration was done by Fran Roxas and included a bare-metal strip and every mechanical component was completely rebuilt or refurbished as necessary and completely refinished.
The car was finished in multiple coasts of black paint. The interior is trimmed in tobacco brown leather and there is a matching Haartz cloth top.
In early 2005, the car was acquired by the O'Quinn Collection. The next care taker purchased the car in 2010 at the RM Auction in Monterey, California.
Just three of these Brunn Riviera Phaetons are known to have been built, and SJ528 is one of a handful original-bodied supercharged Model J's remaining today. The convertible sedan body by Brunn allows the entire rear body to open, hinged at the bumper, revealing a compartment into which the top can be lowered and placed completely hidden from site.
At the first annual Concours d'Elegance of America at St. John's in suburban Detroit, Michigan (formerly known as the Meadow Brook Concours), SJ528 took home top honors, winning Best of Show for the American cars.

LWB Phaeton
Chassis Num:
Engine Num: J510
Sold for $1,688,500 at
2008 RM Auctions
This 1933 Duesenberg Model SJ Phaeton with coachwork by La Grande has chassis number 2540 and engine number J510. It possesses the sought-after eight-cylinder supercharged engine which promises 320 horsepower. In July of 1933 it was tested by the Duesenberg test driver, Mr. Lange, before being acquired by Mr. Ben E. Smith, Sr. of the brokers Hutton & Company in New York. It is one of only three supercharged phaetons built by La Grande and each rested comfortably on the longer wheelbase, measuring 153.5-inches. In total, there were fourteen La Grande Phaetons built, including the short wheelbase and non-supercharged cars. In modern times, only eight are known to exist. Only 18 long wheelbase supercharged cars of all bodystyles and from all coachbuilders were produced.
This is the second of the three LWB cars built. It is a five passenger phaeton with an accessory rear windscreen.
By 1944, the car was taken by Mr. Smith's son, Ben E. Smith, Jr., to Mexico where it was given to Bruno Paglie, the manager of the Hipodromo built by Smith in Mexico City. In 1950, the car was acquired by a used car dealer named Valentine G. Melgarejo. It remained in his possession for the following 18 years. William J. Metta of Alabama became the vehicles next care-taker, who is believed to have partially restored the car.
The next owner was a dealer based in Wisconsin, named James Southard, in 1975. It was quickly sold to Thomas S. Gene Storms who purchased a Leo Gephardt reproduction supercharged in 1979. The car would remain in California until it was brought to auction in 2008. The current owner acquired the car in the mid-1980s.
The car is painted in dark red with a cream sweep panel and reveal. There is a tan Haartz cloth top and tan leather interior. It is believed that the car has been driven 31,400 miles to date. It is well equipped with dual driving lights, cowl lights, rear-mounted trunk, dual side-mounted spare wheels and tires with hard covers and side-view mirrors.
In 2008 this car was brought to the 2nd Annual Vintage Motor Cars of Hershey presented by RM Auctions where it was estimated to sell for $1,800,000 - $2,400,000. It was the highlight of the auction and the most anticipated sale of the evening. Bidding reached 1,425,000 but stalled. The car was rolled off the stage and listed as a no-sale. Later that evening, the car was sold for $1,688,500 including buyer's premium.

Beverly Sedan
Gordon Buehrig
Engine Num: SJ-512
Duesenberg introduced the Model SJ in 1932; SJ denoting a supercharged version of the magnificent Duesenberg straight-eight that produced an incredible 320 horsepower .... 55 horsepower more than its normally aspirated brother. Just 36 SJ chassis were produced between 1932 and 1937 at an average cost of $1,000, making the SJ a $9,500 investment...before the owner spent a single cent on its custom body! This was a 120 mph car in an era when cars could barely reach 80 mph. The stunning coachwork is by the Walter M. Murphy of Pasadena, California, which built more bodies on Duesenberg chassis than any other coachbuilder; a total of 144. Murphy's clientele read like Hollywood's 'Who's Who', list including Mark Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks, Tom Mix and Bronco Billy, Gary Cooper, Clara Bow, Gloria Swanson, novelist Zane Gray, publishing magnate William Randolph Hearst, and Im studio owners Hal Roach and Howard Hughes.
Seen by many as the most beautiful closed Duesenberg design, the Beverly sedan by the Walter M. Murphy Co. of Pasadena is truly an elegant blend of closed coachwork with the massive Duesenberg chassis Armchair seating, rear seat instrumentation, and unique art deco window designs are just a few of the features that grace this car. Just over 400 Duesenberg Model Js and SJs were built between 1928 and 1937.
This 1933 Duesenberg (SJ-512) is one of only 45 Duesenbergs produced with a factory-installed supercharger. This rare model SJ was first ordered by Powell Crosley, who resided in Cincinnati, Ohio, and made his fortune in radio and electronics during the 1920s. He took delivery July 1, 1933. Of the 45 Model SJs produced, only five of these were sold with enclosed bodies. This model sports a unique, highly placed and radically embossed belt line which drops down after the windshield. It is further highlighted by a small but dramatic triangular window that is located between the windshield and A-pillar. Unlike some, the model SJ-512 has always retained its original engine and its body has not been replaced or altered.
Convertible Sedan Speedster
Gordon Buehrig
This 1933 Derham Convertible Sedan Speedster was sold new to H.G. Liebhardt in Denver, Colorado, at a cost of $17,000. The car was sold to Bill Harrah of Reno, Nevada, who in 1960, had Schwartz of Pasadena, California, restore and built the coachwork presently on the car.
The Duesenberg is powered by a supercharged, straight-eight cylinder, dual overhead cam, 420 cubic-inch, Lycoming engine developing 320 horsepower, coupled to a 3-speed manual transmission. The top speed in high gear is well over 125 miles per hour.
The car remained with Bill Harrah until his death, when it was purchased by John Bradley who had the car maintained by Mosier Restoration. The current owner purchased the car from the Bradley estate in 2007.
Convertible Coupe
Gordon Buehrig
Chassis Num:
Engine Num: SJ478
Great ingredients guarantee spectacular results. In the case of a Duesenberg, it was the magical combination of Fred Dusenberg's mechanical skills, E. L. Cord's capital and a supercharged 320 horsepower Lycoming straight eight engine, that resulted in a legendary vehicle. It produced 55 more horsepower than its normally aspirated cohort. There were just 36 examples produced, which cost an additional $1,000 per chassis, before the company went under in 1937. That meant that an SJ was a $9,500 investment before the owner spent a single cent on its custom body! No coachbuiler bodied more chassis for Duesenberg than Walter M. Murphy Co, of Pasadena, California.
Duesenbergs were innovative machines, debuting innovations which have since become industry standards. Some of these are heat treated molybdenum steel chassis, ground, instead of cast, transmission gears, lightweight tubular axles and a self-damping design reducing crankshaft vibrations. This was America's first straight eight and the first overhead camshaft production car.
This car, engine SJ478 and chassis 2496, is now on its third owner. Initially it was owned by an executive of the A&P Grocery chain. It was then the property of a Harvard student who saw it advertised for sale in a New York Times ad in 1953. The asking price was a hefty $2,000.
The car is a Murphy Coupe with disappearing top and has never been restored. Unlike many of the other Duesenberg Model J's, its engine is painted red. Apparently the factory installed supercharged motor was rebuilt in the 1950s at which point it was painted red. The current caretaker has owned its since 1953, when he successfully talked his father into buying him the car as a gift for graduating Harvard Law School. It was listed for sale in a New York Times ad for $2,250. Other than a repaint and some new chrome, The Duesie is essentially unrestored and in remarkably original condition with just 60,000 miles from new.

Convertible Victoria
Rollston & Company
Engine Num: J-272
This car with engine J-272 was delivered new with a centrifugal supercharger increasing engine output to a factory-claimed 320 horsepower. The supercharger model was the SJ designation, and the bare chassis cost a staggering $11,750 before being fitted with coachwork. Only 36 examples were delivered by the factory. Top speed in second gear is said to have been 104 mph, and 125 mph in high. Zero to 100 mph was reported as 17 seconds.
This Convertible Victoria by Rollston of New York is notable for its open rear quarters, which allow better visibility and emphasizes a sporting appearance.

After Fred Duesenberg died in a Model J accident in 1932, his brother Augie was retained to put the final touches on the supercharged Duesenberg SJ. The SJ delivered 320 brake horsepower while retaining the outstanding naturally aspirated performance of the J at lower RPM. Since the SJ required external exhaust manifolds to accommodate the supercharger under its hood, the giant chromed flexible exhaust pipes became its signature feature. Just three of these Brunn Riviera Phaetons are known to have been built and only two were supercharged SJs. The first owner of this car was Lt. Col. Jacob Schick, best known today for inventing the cartridge-style Schick razor and the first electric razor. After several additional owners it was purchased by John O'Quinn in 2005.

If a close shave is the key to sex appeal, then a fine Duesenberg in addition had to cause an irresistibility unrivaled by any other combination.
Lt. Col. Jacob Schick possibly had this thought pass through his head when he ordered a Brunn-bodied Model SJ 'Riviera' Duesenberg Phaeton in 1933.
Famous for revolutionizing shaving, Schick would establish an empire of his own, and he would be in the market for an automobile that spoke of his wealth. At that time, the Duesenberg would be among the very best Schick could have ever sought. Therefore, the Lt. Col. would put in an order.
Schick would take delivery of the car in June of 1934. The car would be a marvel in its own right sporting a huge convertible top that Brunn & Company, amazingly, made capable of disappearing under the reverse-hinge rear deck.
Despite taking delivery of the car, Schick would not keep the car for very long. In fact, it would remain with him for only a matter of months before it would change hands. This would be just the beginning of a spell in which the car would change hands numerous times, and all within the first few years of its life.
Then, in 1950, the Duesenberg would find its most stable home. Harry Schulzinger was in the market for a Duesenberg. It was now after the end of the Second World War and the Cincinnati man wanted a Duesenberg in which he could tinker. Schulzinger would come across chassis 2577 and would stop looking.
Purchasing the car, Schulzinger would not put the car away in some climate controlled garage. Instead, the car was turned over to a group of men working out of a very humble garage. Their goal: to produce the quickest Duesenberg of that, or any, era.
To begin with, the phaeton body from Brunn would be removed leaving just the chassis and everything else forward of the firewall. After some failed attempts to boost the performance of the engine, a new engine would be compiled from components laying around the shop. Jack Irwin was responsible for meeting Schulzinger's demands and, thankfully, this meant there were enough parts lying around to scrounge together. The crankcase came from a J-467. The engine block itself came from J-487. Then, just to top everything off, Jahnes racing pistons were added.
No longer a concours-ready Duesenberg, the fact the car could reach speeds of around 140mph was all the pleasure that Harry needed and this would be attested to by the fact the car would remain with him until his death in 1974. Over the course of those nearly twenty-five years the car was never really pampered. The Duesenberg reputation for performance was taken to a whole new level, and thoroughly enjoyed at every opportunity.
Not everyone believed a Duesenberg should be driven as Schulzinger had. It was of little surprise then, when it was sold to its latest owner, Dr. Donald Vesley, that one of the first things he would set about doing was restoring the car to its original look and feel.
He would have the body refitted to the car and would remove the fenders that had been added. In addition, he would have the engine rebuilt. This would include fitting dual carburetors and a supercharger, and, of course, the iconic 'ram's horn' exhaust manifolds.
As with its first few years of existence, 2577 would soon find itself being sold and resold. Bob Bahre would have a spell as its owner, so too would Noel Thompson. Both were renowned Duesenberg enthusiasts and their ownership adds to the quality of the Brunn Phaeton.
Following its period with Bahre and Thompson, the car would make its way to Las Vegas to be part of the well-known Imperial Palace Auto Collections. Then, in 2001, Rich Atwell of Fredericksburg, Texas would purchase the car.
Atwell would commission Fran Roxas to fully restore the car to concours quality. Before full completion the car would again be sold. Nonetheless, the new owner would bring the car back to Roxas to complete what had been started. The result would be a Best of Show winner at the Concours d'Elegance of America at St. John's and a Second in Class at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.
Once the fastest, 2577 now has to be considered one of the most elegant of all Duesenbergs. The touches of the disappearing Brunn convertible top, simple yet supple interior and the 320bhp 32-valve inline eight cylinder that still does 'Hot Rod Harry' proud are all part of what makes this Model SJ very special.
Offering the 1933 Duesenberg Model SJ 'Riviera' Phaeton as part of its Monterey auction, RM Sotheby's expected big things from the Duesy having estimates for the car ranging from between $1,600,000 and $2,000,000.
By Jeremy McMullen
The Duesenberg Company produced high-end, luxury automobiles and racing cars from 1913 through 1937. It was created by the Duesenberg brothers, Fred and August, who formed the Duesenberg Automobile & Motors Company, Inc. in Des Moines, Iowa with the intent on building sports cars. Just like many of their time, they were mostly self-taught engineers and had only constructed experimental cars up to this point.
Duesenberg's place in history was officially solidified in 1914 when Eddie Richenbacker drove a Duesenberg to an astonishing 10th place finish at the Indianapolis 500. Duesenberg later went on to win the race, capturing overall victories in 1924, 1925, and 1927. A Duesenberg was used as a pace car for the Indianapolis 500 in 1923.
Starting with the companies first appearance at the Indianapolis 500 in 1913 and continuing for a consecutive 15 years, there were a total of 70 Duesenberg racing cars entered in the race. Thirty-two of the cars finished in the top ten. In 1922, eight of the top ten cars were Duesenberg-powered. Many great racing names, such as Eddie Rickenbacker, Rex Mays, Tommy Milton, Peter DePaolo, Albert Guyot, Ralph DePalma, Fred Frame, Stubby Stubblefield, Ab Jenkins, Ralph Mulford, Jimmy Murphy, Joe Russo, and Deacon Litz raced in a Duesenberg.
Duesenberg's racing pedigree was not just reserved for the United States; in 1921, Jimmy Murphy drove a Duesenberg to victory at the French Grand Prix at the LeMans racetrack. This made him the first American to win the French Grand Prix. It also made the Duesenberg the first vehicle to start a grand prix with hydraulic brakes.
The Duesenberg headquarters and factory was relocated in July of 1921 from New Jersey to Indianapolis. Part of the purpose for the move was to focus more on the production of passenger vehicles. The Company had a hard time selling their Model A car. This was a very advanced car with many features not available on other vehicles being offered at the time. The engine had dual overhead cams, four-valve cylinder heads and was the first passenger car to be equipped with hydraulic brakes.
The Duesenberg Company produced 667 examples of the Model A, making it their first mass-produced vehicle. The Model A was powered by a 183-cubic-inch single overhead camshaft inline eight-cylinder engine. The strain of racing, moving, and lack of selling automobiles sent the company into receivership in 1922. After a few years, it's debts had been resolved, thank in-part to an investor group. The company re-opened in 1925 as the Duesenberg Motors Company.
In 1926, Errett Lobban Cord purchased the Duesenberg Company. The company appealed to E.L. Cord, owner of the Cord and Auburn Automobile Company, because of its history, the engineering ingenuity of the products, brand name, and the skill of the Duesenberg Brothers. The purpose was to transform the company into a producer of luxury automobiles.
Duesenberg Model J and Model SJ
Fred Duesenberg was a master of creating engines and was a creative designer. He had a talent for conceiving new ideas and ways of doing things. The engines he constructed were beautiful, mechanically sound, and advanced. E.L. Cord gave him one task: 'Create the best car in the world.' This was a very tall order and came at a very difficult time in history. The onset of the Great Depression and the Stock Market crash was just around the corner. Competition in the luxury car segment was fierce and involved all facets of the automobile. The cylinder wars that began in the 1920s and continued into the 1930s had marque's trying to outdo each other on the bases of their engines output, number of cylinders, and the speed of their ultra-luxury automobiles. Styling continued to be very important and often outsourced to the greatest designers and coachbuilders of the time. Maruqee's such as Cadillac, Packard, Rolls-Royce, Hispano-Suiza, Isotta Fraschini, Bugatti, and others were all trying to out-do each other and continue in business during this difficult point in history.
The Duesenberg Model J was first unveiled to the public at the New York Car Show on December 1st of 1928. Only the chassis and engine were shown and it still impressed enough to make front page news. The wheelbase was 142-inches making it nearly 12 feet. The chassis had a six cross-members made it very sturdy and able to accommodate the heaviest of bodies. The engine had dual overhead camshafts and eight-cylinders with four valves per cylinder. It displaced 420 cubic-inches and produced an impressive 265 horsepower in un-supercharged form. The engine had been designed by Fred Duesenberg and constructed by the Lycoming Company, which had been recently acquired by E.L. Cord. There was a brilliant lubrication system which automatically lubricated various mechanical components after sixty to eighty miles. Two lights mounted on the dashboard indicated when the lubrication process was transpiring. After 750 miles, lights mounted on the dashboard would light-up indicating the oil required changing. After 1500 miles, the lights would illuminate indicating the battery should be inspected. Top speed was 119 mph and 94 mph in second gear. With the use of a supercharger, the top speed increased even further, to nearly 140 mph. Zero-to-sixty took around eight seconds with 100 mph being achieved in seventeen seconds.
Each chassis was driven at speed for 100 miles at Indianapolis before being delivered to the customer or coachbuilder.
The coachwork was left to the discretion of the buyer and the talents of the coachbuilders. Prominent coachbuilders from North American and Europe were selected to cloth the Model J and Model SJ in some of the grandest and elegant coachwork ever created.
The cost of a rolling chassis prior to 1932 was $8,00. The rolling chassis usually included all mechanical components, front fenders, radiator grille, bumpers, running boards, dashboard, and sometimes a swiveling spot-light. After 1932, the price was raised to $9,500. After the coachwork was completed, the base price was $13,500 with a top-of-the line model fetching as much as $25,000 or more. To put this in perspective, the entry level Ford Model T in the early 1930s cost around $435 with the most expensive version selling for about $650. Many individuals in very prominent careers, such as doctors, made around $3,000 annually. The Great Depression meant the number of individuals capable of affording an automobile of this caliber soon dwindled. Those who could afford one often bought modest vehicles to avoid public uprising and ridicule. The pool of marques who catered to the upper-class of society did all they could to attract buyers; prices were lowered and incentives were made just to attract another sale. Needless to say, competition was fierce.
After the New York Show, Duesenberg ordered enough components to build 500 Model Js. Specifications and drawings of the chassis had been sent to prominent coachbuilders six months prior to its unveiling at the New York Show. This had been done to guarantee that a wide variety of bodies were available after its launch. Duesenberg ordered bodies in small quantities and offered the completed cars to have on-hand incase the customer wanted to take delivery immediately. The first customer took delivery of their Model J in May of 1929. This was just five weeks before Black Tuesday.
The Model SJ, a supercharged version of the Model J, produced 320 horsepower. The supercharger was located beside the engine with the exhaust pipes beneath through the side panel of the hood through creased tubes. The name 'SJ' was never used by the Duesenberg Company to reference these models.
Even though the Model J had received much attention from the press and promotional material was well circulated, sales were disappointing. The Duesenberg Company had hoped to construct 500 examples per year; this figure was never matched with a total of 481 examples constructed throughout its lifespan. Duesenberg did find customers such as Gary Cooper, Clark Gable, Greta Garbo and James Cagney. Monarch, kings, queens, and the very wealthy accounted for the rest of the sales.
Production continued until the company ceased production in 1937. Little changed on the Model J over the years. The four-speed gearbox was replaced by a unsynchronized three-speed unit which was better suited to cope with the engines power. The last Model SJ's produced had ram-horn intakes and installed on two short-wheelbase chassis. Horsepower was reported to be as high as 400. These examples are commonly known as 'SSJ' in modern times.
In 1932, Fred Duesenberg was involved in a car accident which claimed his life. Development on the Model J had come to a halt which was not a problem at the time, but within a few years had become antiquated in comparison to the competition. An entirely new design and updated mechanical components were required for the Duesenberg name in 1937 in order to stay competitive. The cost and development time was too much for E.L. Cord to consider, and so he withdrew his financial support and the company dwindled.
August Duesenberg tried, unsuccessfully, to revive the Duesenberg name. Fritz Duesenberg tried again in the mid-1960s but again without success.

Originally written on Fox Sports Florida | Last updated 9/1/14
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) -- Dale Earnhardt Jr. started a 12-car accident at Daytona International Speedway that essentially shut down a three-day test session. NASCAR's most popular driver tapped Marcus Ambrose as they drove across the back straightaway, lifting him "like a forklift" and turning him into the wall. Ambrose's car bounced back across the track and collected a host of others. Two of Earnhardt's Hendrick Motorsports teammates, Jeff Gordon and Kasey Kahne, also were involved. So were defending Sprint Cup champion Brad Keselowski, new teammate Joey Logano, Carl Edwards, Kyle Busch, Jamie McMurray, Martin Truex Jr., Aric Almirola and Regan Smith. Kahne's car sustained significant damage. The wreck caused several teams to pack up and leave Daytona, and ended the pack racing that NASCAR wanted to see to evaluate its redesigned cars.

Evangelical Medical Affairs Doctor Graduates From Comprehensive Patient Safety Leadership Fellowship
J. Lawrence Ginsburg, MD, MMM, FAAFP, recently graduated from the Comprehensive Patient Safety Leadership Program held by the American Hospital Association (AHA) and the National Patient Safety Foundation (NPSF).
Dr. Ginsburg, who serves as Vice President of Medical Affairs for Evangelical Community Hospital, took part in the year-long program that provides essential training in patient safety, quality, and performance improvement. By graduating from the program, Ginsburg brings to the Hospital an even greater focus to already implemented patient safety policies and allows him to provide insight on how other healthcare organizations apply safety best practices with success.
The fellowship framework includes a focus on foundational elements of patient safety, such as leadership roles, culture and communication, and incorporates them into four pillars of patient safety: care coordination, patient centeredness, organizational culture, and transparency and learning organization. The fellowship consists of in-person learning sessions, teleconferences, webinars, various self and organizational assessments, and individual coaching.
Dr. Ginsburg is also a local family physician who practices Family Medicine at Lewisburg Family Practice, 55 North Fifth Street, Lewisburg, in partnership with Suzanne Greb, DO.
Evangelical Community Hospital received the Healthgrades Outstanding Patient Experience Award in 2013 for the fifth consecutive year, making it one of two hospitals in Pennsylvania to be recognized for consistent, positive patient experience.
Evangelical is a non-profit organization that employs approximately 1,300 people and has more than 170 employed and non-employed physicians on staff. The Hospital is licensed to accommodate 130 overnight patients, 12 acute rehab patients and 18 bassinets. The Hospital serves residents throughout the Central Susquehanna Valley, including those living in Snyder, Union, Northumberland and Lycoming Counties.

We're a small web agency but growing rapidly. We utilize alot of TF items for our works with customization tailored for each client and project.
We are looking to hire a frontend designer / developer (wordpress) person to work as apart of our team.We are launching a small business packaged solution for cost effective websites and we need more team members to see these projects turned around.
We utilize our own online project management platform to effectively manage each project. We are looking for full time and also part time roles, so you could work this around your other commitments or TF projects. Projects are not rushed, however we are seeing alot of new clients so its important to manage time effectively.
The suitable candidate will require:
- html, css and jquery (4 years + clean semantic code practises)
- Wordpress design, develop + theme installation
- Understanding of Themeforest
- Good english and communication. (client contact involved)
- Reliable and passionate
Most of your work will involve working with an existing theme from TF and customizing to meet the brief.
We're fun to work with, and looking for a long term hire paid weekly.
We look favorable on candidates with good Themeforest portfolio and files.
Looking to hire immediately.
We operate an online service quotation platform built using php,mysql and jquery. We posted about a month ago through CC found a fantastic developer who seemed to fit perfectly. However his time commitments mean he just doesn't have enough time to devote to our project.
If you are a backend developer, out website is built using bootstrap and php, mysql and jquery. Along with html and css on the frontend.
We are looking for a professional with excellent communication, and is available to start immediately.
We have an our online task manager to track time, and tasks required.
Immediate start for the right person, a long term position with weekly hours is on offer along with weekly pay.
Still looking. Please only reply if you are available. We are based in Melbourne, so being available at some point within our timezone is needed. Immediate start.
I know this may not be the right place to post. There are alot of talented backend developers that have got work here. I have been looking for sometime on places like freelancer, odesk etc and haven't found anyone who seems to have the right knowledge and actual experience.
We have a website built with frontend html, css, jquery and backend using php,mysql and jquery and the original developer has had personal issues and is no longer available to continue working with us. We have worked with him for over 2 years now, and really need to have someone in this role to help with support + new features to be added.
There is no framework, its built custom from the ground up using responsive design (bootstrap) i believe but it is using a admin theme from themeforest. Very nice, clean / smooth UI.
This is a long term position, and starting weekly hours as needed (we have urgent tasks required right now) then moving to full time position very soon.
Not allowed to post email here due to spam received so if you can use my profile i am Australian timezone and will reply almost immediately. Thank you
Just FYI. NOT looking for envato studio. We want to work directly on an ongoing basis.
I am looking for a frontend developer to work for our company on a weekly permanent basis. The number of hours per week will vary depending on the require tasks. We are looking for a html / css / jquery superstar.
If you can reply with your items on TF it would be a great indicator of your work. Let me know your hourly rate, when you can start and number of hours per week. I am looking to hire someone to start immediately as we have tasks needed done.
Our frontend website and landing pages are built using html, css and jquery. Backend is php and mysql and jquery.

Ghost Stories
The Mix Up
Right after my grandfather died I started having dreams about him being alive and everything being like normal or better but then the dreams always turned. I would feel a violent angry presence that absolutely terrified me and for whatever reason I knew it was my grandmother. Quite frankly I had never felt that kind of fury. I was having the dreams every night and was barely getting any sleep because of them. It became so bad that I finally said something to my mother. I suspected as she did that it was just grief and moving away from home shortly after his death. I thought maybe if I talked about it that they would stop. They did not. A few days later I received a phone call from my mother saying that my sister was having similar dreams only hers were focused on me instead of Grandpa. Later we found that our eldest cousin was, also, having the dreams. A short time after we discovered this we found that there was a mistake with my grandfather and grandmothers tombstones. They had to be swapped. Once the error was corrected our dreams stopped. I guess Grandma did not appreciate the mix up.
I grew up on the North Shore of Long Island, not far from Amityville, but thats another story. We did have a ghost though, her name was Stella..
Story goes, her husband bought the land where our neighborhood sits,(cr.1770) The home was built at, or near were our house was. Stella her husband and son farmed the land until the War began. Her husband and son knew what they had to do and went off to fight with Gen. Washington. She vowed to wait for them until they returned. One day word came, as it did to many women, that her husband and only child had been killed fighting the British.
Stella however kept her vigil, each and every evening, sitting out front, rocking back and forth, waiting and watching, for "her men" to come riding over the hill on their way back home. She did this everyday until her death.
Late at night, Winter, Summer , Fall or Spring , when the weather is good, you can hear her rocking back and forth in her rocker...waiting....and watching for her boys to come home. But you can only hear this coming from the room above you, when you go upstairs to see whats making the noise, you hear it above you again, until you get to the top floor, then you hear it coming from the attic--theres nothing up there
It seems her loss also left her very bitter and may have left the area somewhat cursed. For the wives and mothers in the
neighborhood -this was a very BAD thing. 5 woman lost husbands early, 5 lost children early, always in their early teens, said to be her sons age.
She was always good to me, sometimes when I would cut the grass and the mower would run out of gas and I KNEW the gas can was on the other side of the yard, I would turn around and there it would be--creepy-- Id forget my car keys in an upstairs room, on my way to get them--Id find them sitting on the bottom step, scary, but convenient. When these things would happen I would always offer a "Thank you Stella" to keep on her good side. I think she watched out for me.-- My room was always cool in the summer (no a.c. in the house mind you) and warm in the winter.
During a spring cleaning session my sisters and I were hard at work. One of my sisters was eager to get done and go out with friends and cursed the fact we had work to do. The next thing we knew there was a scream! the entire bookshelf next to her emptied! every book came flying off the shelves!!! We all knew that was Stellas way of telling us to stop our
complaining and get to work.
One Saturday morning as my Mom tells it, my sisters and I were watching TV,(H.R. Puff & Stuff) when she noticed a column of smoke coming out of our laundry room. Thinking there was a fire and we would panic, she quietly investigated before getting us out. She opened the door to the laundry room, but could not see where the smoke was coming from. The washer and dryer were both running, but the room was bitterly cold, and this was in the summer time. Then the smoke slowly drifted from the laundry room to the adjacent bathroom, then it was gone. My mom sat back down and only told us
this story years later.
Theres so much more, but if dont get back to work my boss is going to get real scary .
Happy Halloween, and the next time something odd happens in YOUR home...say hello to your Stella for me.
Haunted Church
When I was younger I was told about an old church in the woods. It was never used, but the door and windows were always unlocked. The bible was always open to a certain scripture. One Halloween Night these boys decided to steal from this church. They went into the church started gathering up everything they could get. One of the boys got the bible and closed it. When he did the windows slammed shut and the door was locked. The next morning some people had came by the church and seen the boys car in front of the church. They went inside the church and everything was normal. The windows were open, everything was in its place, even the bible. It was back on that scripture. The boys were never seen again. My friends and I have been to this church. We never had the nerve to go inside, but we were kids back then.
Entity of a Young Woman
Our home in South Louisiana was built on the location of a previous plantation home site. At one time or another in the course of our lives growing up in the house our family of two parents and seven children all had encounters with the same entity of a young woman with very long hair wearing a long flowing gown. We were never afraid of her and just considered her a part of the household. It is odd that we really never spoke of her while growing up in the house as children. However, as adults all remember similar experiences. Our mother had the most encounters of all.
Haunted Louisiana House
We moved to Louisiana several years ago and the house we moved into turned out to be haunted. We were never told what had happened in the house until we moved out after three months because I could not stay there any longer. I honestly felt that if I stayed there I would die. We had been there for about a week when I started feeling as if someone was in the house when I knew I was alone. After about two weeks I got up one night to go to the bathroom and as I opened our bedroom door I saw a woman standing in the hall by the bathroom door. When I called out to my husband she suddenly disappeared. My husband told me it must have been a reflection from a headlight or something outside. This went on for several weeks. Each time I felt more and more disturbed by this but since I was the only one that saw her I said it must just be my imagination until my youngest daughter who was 3 at the time asked us who the lady was that cried at night. When we asked her what she meant she said, "The pretty lady that cries and has blood on her dress!" About a week later about 2 in the morning I heard a noise in the bathroom and thinking that one of my children was up sick I got up and went to check on them. When I passed the bathroom I heard a noise in there so I opened the door and their was blood everywhere and the woman was on the floor with a tall man standing over her holding a long butcher knife. I screamed and they disappeared. My husband came running in and I told him what I had seen. He searched the house and found nothing except in the bathroom we found a thin line of what looked like fresh blood in the shape of a V. We moved out the next day and when I took the key back to the owners of the house (an older couple in their 70s) and told them what had happened they said that no one ever stayed there very long.
Slave Auction Haunting
When I was ten my older brother took me to an old missionary church called Whetlock. It was around midnight. They told me that people have heard strange things there but I didnt believe them. At first I thought they were playing around but my brother was just as scared as I was. We heard chains shaking and babies crying and women screaming. The car would not start and we couldnt open the doors (not like I wanted to any way). We went back on our way to church and we stopped to pick up one of my grandparents friends . She lives near the church and told us how back before the civil war that slaves were auctioned off next to the church and that when slaves would have children sometimes the babies would be put to death in front of there moms to try and stop the slaves from reproducing.
Lamp Turns Itself On
I turned a lamp off in a room and as I walked out of the room it turned itself back on. The light switch was the type you twist.
Thanksgiving Visitor
The only thing that Ive really seen was after my grandpa died, my grandmother came to have Thanksgiving at my sisters. In every picture of my grandmother there was this bright light beside her. This only happened in the pictures with her, none with anyone else.
Relocation Incident
I was walking down the street to my house. It was dark and there was no side walk so I was using the yellow breakdown line to keep me out of the ditch. I was coming around a sharp corner when I looked up and saw a GMC pickup coming straight at me. I closed my eyes and put my arms out. I opened them thinking i must be dead. I was standing 3 feet off the road in the grass. I turned to see the guy stop, I waved at him that I was ok and he drove off. I still have no idea how I got off the road.
Alma Mater Ghost
This is actually my sisters story. It is taken as a given that my alma mater, Deshler High School in Tuscumbia, Alabama is haunted by the ghost of a woman who donated the property. My sister and two classmates were asked to deliver some materials to the Winston Home, an antebellum mansion in the center of the school and the home of the aforementioned ghost. All three entered and after a brief period in the house, they encountered a semi-transparent woman sitting in a rocking chair in a corner of the room. They all fled and one girl actually transferred to another school a short period later. Although Ive sometimes had my doubts, my sister still sticks to her version of events over 10 years later.
Mothers Reassurance
My 11 year old daughter was at AR Childrens Hospital about to have a tumor removed from her head and I saw my deceased mother walking the hallways. It was a sign to me that she was there for me and my family, especially my daughter who she was very close to. I knew all was going to be o.k.
Flying Pennies
I lived in a genuine haunted house for about six years. Pennies would fly over the shower curtain, toys would make noise without anyone (in body) playing with them. The ghosts liked to talk in the middle of the night.
Mary W.
Radio Mystery
We used to hear a radio playing in our trailer house late at night. There was no radio on anywhere in the house. The room where the music came from was always cold and it always felt like something was watching you in the room.
One evening I was cooking dinner. The boys were home playing playstation in the youngest ones bedroom. I was browning meat for chili and felt an overwhelming presence behind me, thinking it was one of the boys sneaking up on me(as they were prone to do), I turned around and felt a kind of swoosh, only to find that there was no one there. Immediately I turned off the burner and walked down the hallway and both boys were still sitting in the floor playing on the playstation.
Moving Kitchen Objects
I used to babysit in a home in Atlanta Georgia. You could watch objects move in the kitchen (especially if they were not safe for children) and hear foot steps going from room to room down the hallway. Cold breezes often accompanied the footsteps.
Ghostly Prankster
A house we once lived in had a spirit that liked to pull pranks on everyone, like locking the door when someone would go outside. I would hear a knock at the door and it would be my mom, dad or a sibling, but when I opened the door it wasnt locked at all and I told them it wasnt, naturally they didnt believe me. I thought this was kind of funny so I begin to have little one sided conversations with my invisible friend. I even asked him to stop locking the doors cause everyone was starting to blame me for that one, and no one got locked out any more. Then one night after everyone had gone to bed I decided to clean up the kitchen to surprise my mom the next day. We had carpeting in our kitchen which was drenched from someone spilling some water in front of the stove. I was barefooted and standing on the wet carpet when I grabbed a butter knife, one end had slid underneath the edge of the stove. When I grabbed it a serge of electricity went through me and I couldnt let go. I felt someones arms grab me around the waist and pull me away from the stove. When I turned to thank them there was no one there. After that my invisible friend seem to have shall I say "vanished?" He was no longer around. No more pranks or sounds. One day while everyone else had gone out for the afternoon a friend came by to visit. We were sitting in the living room talking when an old car pulled up in the driveway. A tall elderly man got out and came to the door. He told me he use to live there and would like to look around. I told him he could look around outside that I couldnt invite him in at the time. He smiled and said that was fine. I closed the door and told my friend that "the old man that use to live here is dead, he had been murdered by his wife." Just seconds later we looked out the window and both he and the car was gone. Nothing strange or out of the norm ever happened in that house again.
Shoulder Touch
One time when I was babysitting, I went out on the carport for some reason (I was at their house) to look at some kittens, I think. I felt someones hand on my shoulder, and I jumped (it was night), but when I turned around no one was there.
Balloon Boy
When I was in the 2nd grade, about 1976, I was lying in my mom and dads bed waiting for my mom to get out of the bathroom and come tuck me in. I was looking out of their bedroom door toward the door that led to our garage. All of a sudden a figure of a little boy in a cap carrying balloons came through that door. I couldnt see any features only a faint white shape, but I could tell it was a boy. He was walking directly toward where I was and I started crawling up closer to the headboard. Just as he got to the door of the bedroom, my mom opened the bathroom door and the little boy disappeared. I told her what had happened because she could tell I was really scared. We later found out that the door he came from had been an old utility company and my father had replaced the glass with paneling. I am now 38 years old and can still remember that night like it was yesterday!
Eerie House Sickness
I went in a house in Little Rock several years ago with the idea of renting it. The realtor showed me through the place and didnt act as if anything was wrong, but I was sick as a dog the entire time. Outside I was fine, so I went back in the house and got the strong feeling that if I moved into that house I would die. I left.
Betty S.
Rubber Ball
At my mothers house in Virginia, I had just gotten into bed upstairs and turned the light off. Within a couple of minutes I heard this loud thump so I turned the light on and there was this rubber ball laying in the floor that came from nowhere. When I picked it up and dropped it, it bounced 2-3 times. So I dont know how it got there and why did it only hit the floor and didnt bounce?
Funeral Visitor
I used to work at a local funeral home for ten years which had a regular visitor who was a ghost. She would come in and sit in the chapel where a funeral service was to take place the next day. She always had on the same salt and pepper suit and black pillbox hat. All of us there saw her at one time or another.
Upside-down Television Picture
I have had many bizarre experiences! The most memorable was when my sister lived in a haunted house. Every time I went to visit her SEVERAL unexplainable things would happen. One of the most bizarre things was when we were watching T.V. and the picture would slowly turn itself upside down.
Death Warning
My mother-in-law sat on my bed and "prepared" me for my own mothers death. She passed away in 1985 and my mother passed away in 1993.
Anita T.
Death Warning
Well, my mamaw was an overweight (jolly), sweet, loving, and very religious lady. She used to sit on the side of her bed and rock & pray off and on all hours of the night. When I was a little girl I would sleep in the bed with her and papaw or if I was sleeping in another room she would come in that room in the middle of the night and sit on the edge of my bed and pray over me. Sometimes it would wake me up. It was the most comforting feeling ever. I am 32 now but she was diagnosed with Alzheimers shortly after my papaw passed away in 1996 and my aunt kept her at home to care for her until she passed in 2002. Shortly after her passing I would be asleep and wake up to my bed indenting downward like something or someone sitting on the edge of my bed. I would kinda of roll toward that dent. At first I thought it was my cat that only weights like 5lbs, so I slept with my door shut. A few nights later my bed dented down again right on the edge like someone was sitting on it...It had not done so in a long time but for a while there it was and that went on for about a year or two off and on. I was not ever uneasy and I am a scary person. It was always comforting to me when it would wake me up! I love and miss you mamaw.
Rocking Rocker
One week after my mother died her rocker rocked a few minutes and then stopped.
Moms Goodbye
One month before my Mom passed away she came to me and NO I was not dreaming. She had been in the hospital and she looked like she did when she was 29 or 30 and she had a new leg. She told me goodbye.
Doorbell Ghosts
We just moved into our new home. I have a doorbell that rings only on Sundays. I returned one set of doorbells and the clerk said you must have a GHOST. Even with the new door bells it still rings on Sundays and no one is at the door.The land where our house is sitting has a long history of bad things happening. Maybe we do have ghosts or spirits.
Previous Home Owners
We lived in a house that had only one previous owner, an older couple who were both deceased. One night the water in the shower just turned on all by itself. Another time while I was standing on the front porch the door bell rang. On one occasion the volume on the TV kept going up all by itself and I would occasionally see an older woman (out of the corner of my eye) in a white gown, walk out of the kitchen door while I was sitting in the living room.
Mary R.
Funeral Dream
I dreamed I was at a funeral with my mother...and the next day she was dead. The worst part was later thinking about it and realizing that I never remembered seeing the face of the deceased person at the funeral.
Cementery Orbs
My late husband had a friend that committed suicide when we were still young. Before my husband died, he would be around. I saw him one night watching me while I was putting things away in the closet and several of our friends throughout the years felt his touch on their shoulder and he helped one friend into the house one night. Plus, my sister and I have snapped photos in cemeteries at midnight, full moon and no moon, and have gotten orbs.
Back Scratches
I was visiting with a friend once a long time ago. I was upstairs in her room and I felt this feeling of being watched. Everywhere I looked there was nothing there. I could at times hear someone calling my name. As I got up to go out of the room I felt as if I could not move and the door slammed shut in front of me. I screamed for my friend.She could not open the door and I couldnt either. We both became scared. I felt something scratch down my back and it felt like liquid fire. When I finally got the door open we looked at my back and I had four parallel scratches down the center of my back. I have never been back to that house.
Parents Vigil
I had been sick for a couple of months and my mom and dad came to me in a dream telling me they would take me to the hospital. I went the next day and found out I had colon cancer. I am convinced parents watch over their kids after they are gone from this earth!
Lantern Ghost
One night my husband was filming me on the front porch playing around, and out of no where a person wearing a white shirt carrying, what we think was, a lantern. The person walked quickly down the hill into our horse pasturer. They disappeared in the horse pasturer as quickly as they came. We sold the house and the next resident who bought the home had the same incident happen to them! Scary!!!!
Running Feet
While my husband and I were sleeping one night I thought I heard small footsteps running from the living room toward the kitchen, which was right outside my bedroom. At first I thought it was one of my children so I got out of bed and checked and they were all sound asleep in bed. When I came back to bed my husband asked who was that running around the house? That was so scary because not only did I hear it, so did he. After that when I would hear sounds like dishes breaking and nothing was broken I would just put my blanket over my head and try to ignore it. We have since moved and no longer have a problem.
Sandra Z.
Grave-site Discovery
I felt moved to go down a path while at my mothers grave-site and found a friend had died months earlier and I didnt know it.
Happy Mother-In-Law
My Mother-In-Law, (BLESS HER SOUL), always liked to be the first one to tell you good news. She hadd always wanted my ex-husband (HER BABY) to work for the phone, gas company or post office. About one year after she passed away she visited us one evening while I was cooking dinner. When she would visit us I wouldnt let her help me, so she would stand and talk to me from the other side of the island by the stove while I cooked. I looked up (ONE YEAR AFTER SHE DIED) and she was just standing there talking and smiling like it was something very good. Now I could not understand what she was telling me but I know it was making her very happy. My Husband came home that night and told me he had gotten that position with the post office.
I sometimes know when something is coming, like very bad weather, death or money shortages. It sometimes makes me very sad. I try to pass it off and not think of it.
CNA Dread
I once worked in a nursing home as a CNA. When I first started working there, I felt like something was hovering over me when I entered a certain terminally ill patients room. It was very scary, my heart raced and I couldnt wait to exit his room and dreaded to re-enter. He only lived about a week after I started working there.
Shadowy Figure
My sister and I share a story we still frequently talk about. When we were kids sharing bunk beds we woke up at the same time and saw a shadowy figure standing in the door way. My sister asked me if I saw it, I said yes then crawled down to her bed and we turned our heads. (If you knew how much my sister and I used to fight, you know it was bad when we agreed to share a twin bed). The next morning we told our mom and she took separated us and asked us what we saw. We both described the exact same thing. We arent entirely sure it was a ghost-but it was an experience weve never forgotten.
Cresent Hotel
My mom and I went to Eureka Springs two weeks ago and went on a "Ghost Tour" at the Cresent Hotel. We could tell there was something there with us, especially down in the basement. We took a lot of pictures and caught some very interesting things on camera.
Old Hospital
I worked in an old hospital years ago. One night after leaving the cafeteria, I stepped off the elevator onto the third floor, the air was ice cold, (it was middle of summer, no A/C in this area). I had the feeling someone was behind me but no one was there. When I entered the new wing of the hospital the cold was gone. I stepped back into the hall of the old wing and the cold was gone.
Mary B.
Mr. George
I was visiting my parents and pre-teenaged sister in Mississippi over 30 years ago. On the day I was to leave I was awakened by the sense that someone was yanking my pillow out from under my head. It happened several times, I was not dreaming. Shaken, I got up and went to the kitchen where my mom was making breakfast. When I told her what had happened she said, "Oh, thats just Mr. George." She told me of several things they had experienced: A bowl of grapes flying across the room, a clothes hanger that spun on a doorknob by itself, a bedroom door that slammed and locked by itself, only to swing open by itself after my mom stopped trying to open it (my sister was inside), a barstool that fell over by itself only to stand itself up with no one near. Mr. George had died in the house several years earlier. Many people claimed to have seen him in a tree in the front yard.
Baby Clothes
My daughter died at four months old, adn all her things were all packed up in a box thenext day, (my mother thought it would be best), and that I could go through them at a later time. it was just after everyone had left the house and a couple of days after her funeral, things of hers started showing up in the laundry, a blanket with the towels, her crib sheet with the bedding, things like that. I know it all was packed up. We had given away all the baby food that was in the house, I went to the store and when I came home there would be a jar in my sacks. I just put it all down that maybe she was telling us she was warm and clean and being fed, not to worry. We did move from that house and it has not happened since.
I woke up about 2 :00am and there were 4 or 5 fire fighters in my home, only they werent "really" there. The next day a lady downstairs said the landlord told her someone in my apartment died there from a fire many years ago.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough contacted NewsBusters a few moments ago with the relevant transcript from his June 1 "Morning Joe" program, lamenting in an e-mail that our "follow up blog on Newsbusters... actually omits fact that there was a long discussion started by female athlete re pole exercising. Transcript shows whole thing taken wildly out of context."
Here's the transcript, as forwarded by Scarborough to us after receiving same from Christopher Licht, executive producer of "Scarborough Country":
June 1, 6:25 a.m.
Scarborough: "Hey Tracy"
Tracy Burgess: "Yes, Mr. Scarborough."
Scarborough: "What did you say before we came back on? That you work the what?"
Burgess: "I am taking vertical pole. I am studying vertical pole."
Scarborough: "Vertical pole?"
Burgess: "Right."
Scarborough: "What is that?"
Burgess: "It's a pole and you exercise on it."
McCord: "It's pole dancing, Joe."
Scarborough: "Okay, that's what I wanted to know."
McCord: "Tracy is becoming a pole dancer."
"I am just a cave-man lawyer, I don't know your strange ways up here in
New York City. So you are one of these people.."
Burgess: "One of these people..."
Scarborough: "Who exercises and stays fit by working the pole."
"Yes, yes, I do. Cause you are lifting your entire body weight and so,
you're inverting yourself and you are putting yourself in moves that
require all sorts of muscles that you usually don't work and it's good."
"Actually, Ms. Burgess is a fine athlete. - a tri-athlete who competes
all the time in these various events and she has simply added to her
Burgess: "Thank you, Mr. McCord"
Scarborough: "So pole dancing, what you're basically telling me, builds your core."
Burgess: "It does. It builds your core, it builds your arms, your legs, your thighs."
McCord: "Look it [burgess flexes biceps]."
Scarborough: "Oh my god, look at those arms."
McCord: "Oh, she's got guns, come on. Good lord, she's fit."
Scarborough: "I'm impressed."
Burgess: "And, I learned how to do a 'reverse superman.'"
Scarborough: "You want to show us that right now?"
Burgess: "Um, no. If you had a pole, I would."
Scarborough: "Well, thank you so much Tracy. I'm not gonna take a bite on that."
McCord: "Course, we're not pole driven."
Scarborough: "Some of us are. Craig Crawford"
Crawford: "Hey, I saw that on Oprah."
Scarborough: "Did you really?"
Crawford: "Yeah, they had pole dancing as exercise. That Teri, what's her name from Desperate Housewives is into that."
McCord: "It's become a big deal, actually."
Crawford: "And she did a whole exhibition of it - it was quite something."
Scarborough: "Housewives across America taking to the pole... for health and fitness. Hey, have you seen Fred Thompson's wife?"
Crawford: "Oh yeah..."
Scarborough: "You think she works the pole?"
Crawford: laughter "That what Hollywood careers will do for you, I guess."
Scarborough: "What do you mean?"
Crawford: "You get wives like that."
"I mean, look at that guy...god bless him, I love his voice and I mean,
he ain't Robert Redford in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid."
"I'd like to see him get back in politics because I think he's a lousy
actor. I always thought he was a better politician than actor, but
that was true of Reagan"

Paint/seal over black mastic
We are planning on re-carpeting our basement floor which is cement. We have removed the old carpeting and padding as well as the tile that was underneath (before realizing we were working with asbestos-based products!!). The tile was very easy to remove with just a scraper. What we have now is the black mastic that was used to adhere the tile to the concrete floor. We would prefer to paint or seal over the black mastic rather than going through the process of removing it before the new carpet is installed. Our basement will be used partially as a play area the kids and considering the mastic most likely contains asbestos, I want to do what is safest, yet least expensive. Is it absolutely necessary to remove the mastic or is it okay to leave it and paint or seal over it? Any product suggestions would also be greatly appreciated!
I know of no way to paint over it
From a painting standpoint, it would have to be removed

Shine on at This Poster Expo
If gig posters excite you almost as much or more than the shows they advertise, if you dont feel like you really know a band until youve got its poster on your wall, or even if you just want to look at memorabilia from your misspent hippie youth, the Mile High Rock Poster and Art Expo is a great place to get your fix. Everything from the classic psychedelic designs of the 60s to todays latest designs will be on display and for sale for collectors both serious and casual.
Its a very visual medium; its all about graphics, its all about design, says John Borghi, one of the organizers. You collect them for the sake of the art, or the artist or the band. People do all three things. Poster collecting is a lot of fun. Its a nice hobby to get into.
A number of notable poster artists will be there, including Richard Biffle, Phil Lewis, Ryan Kerrigan and Tripp, among others. Youll also find concert photography, band T-shirts and live paintings pieces created as a band plays, as a visual accompaniment on display and for sale. The show runs from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. today at the Aloft Hotel, 8300 Arista Place in Broomfield; tickets are $5. For more information, visit www.rockartexpo.com or call 303-527-2701.

Home ⋅ Birthday Party Invitations ⋅ 1st Birthday ⋅ 2 Photos ⋅ 3-5 Photos
"My son would not put down this card when we opened the box! He loved seeing himself pictured with all the bugs. The colors are bright, so I used the sepia effect on the two outer photos. It made my dominant pic stand out more."
"The design on this card is just perfect. Its delicate and simple, yet colorful and girly. It fit perctly with the theme for my little ones birthday. Everyone thought it was beautiful."
"I love being able to customize the products on this site. Whether font, color or placement, its nice to have that option. The quality of the projects I order are always great quality and I love being able to order the products when I have the chance!"
"Love the card, I only wish it came in 5 x 7. The quality, as always, is amazing but a choice in size would of made it simply perfect."
"We used these for my daughter's bug themed second birthday party. I have had many compliments on them. We used the line "buzz by her backyard to celebrate." They turned out really cute (as most things do from tinyprints and weddingpaperdivas). It is probably my fault for not paying attention to the dimensions, but I was a little surprised by how small they are. I expected them to be bigger. Still an adorable card that you can't beat for the price."

Victorinox Swiss Army - Ground Force 60/60 Chrono
I first gave my husband a Swiss Army watch for his 30th birthday over 4 years ago and now I realize it's time for a new one. While it's in perfect condition today something slightly more updated would be a great gesture. He likes things that are simple but modern and think this watch meets those requirements. The steel and titanium casing, anti-reflection sapphire crystal, luminous hands and hour markers (it glows in the dark!), and it's amazing water resistancy makes this watch irresistable... at least for me!
The price, the design and the storage capabilities form a trifecta of cool for this watch. from the site: In our effort to always bring you the latest and greatest gadgets, ThinkGeek presents this Stainless Steel Video Wat...

Miguel de Icaza Starts New Company To Drive Mono
new posts
Man, I read through these posts and I can't believe how negative some people can be.
Novell sponsored Mono development with M$ blessing. Why would M$ do such a thing? Pretend cross-platform compatibility? Make a couple Linux and Mac OS X devs switch to Mono and, hopefully, to Windows some day? It doesn't matter why, and Novell were no tourists, so they made an informed decision on this matter.
Is any company pursuing the Mono project liable if M$ want so? Yes, because the Mono project reverse-engineered a lot more than what M$ made public on the .NET specs. But that applies to 99.99% of anything an IT shop does. Once you hit the market with a new product, something that everybody wants, there will be a gazillion hungry wolfs out there making claims on your IP, asking to get a piece of it. Companies you never knew existed will claim that you infringed on their patents. This is how the IT industry works these days. And they actually don't want to go to trial, they just want a quick settlement. And the more money you made "infringing" on their IP, the more you'll have to pay to settle. The RedHat CEO once said that it's better to settle, even if you know you are right, cause it is cheaper, in the end.
M$ have no reason to kill Mono, or bring de Icaza and the gang down or anything--for now. When and if Xamarin or others make a lot of money (ahem!) selling Mono/Monotouch/Monodroid/whatever, then sure, there may be a settlement with M$. But that would happen even if all .NET specifications were made public. There will always be some loophole for a lawyer to discover, some detail that someone missed that will allow a company to drag another one to trial.
Now, I also noticed that Mono haters would have everybody think like they do. Have the same values. Teach the "plebeans" the good from the bad. What to do and what not to. This reminds me of two similar crowds: Linux evangelists and religious people. No further comments.
I have recently tried C#.NET, after many years of avoiding it, and it looks great. And BTW, I use MonoDevelop on Windows at work because I cannot update Visual Studio Express on my office computer due to IT policy restrictions. In a way, it was negative comments that I read on .NET that brought it to my attention and made me give it a try. In the end, it was a good for me that I read those comments.Last edited by tr00don; 06-07-2011, 12:00 PM.

- Stylist:
- Diana H.
Oct 20, 2011 - E! Aveda Salon on Stockdale Hwy is Bakersfield's " Best Kept Secret !" This is my fourth time back for a cut / color and I'm happy to say, Thanks E! Aveda!!! Not only are they very professional and friendly, they teach you so well about how to properly use their products! I am in my 50's and for years I have suffered with bad hair cuts not knowing I was a Curly Girl. About 6 mos ago, I learned about the curly cut and have search for a stylist in Bakersfield who knew the technique. In my trials, I found Diana Holtzclau. THANK YOU DIANA!!!! Ok, Bakersfield Curly Girls! Don't settle for anymore bad haircuts! Visit E! Salon and let Diana do her job. Her cuts are amazing and she is a darling of a person with a beautiful disposition. Have you ever, not meaning to, offended a stylist because you were unhappy with the way they cut your hair! I am an easy person who likes a great cut. Simple...a great cut! Diana is the "BEST!" She listens to you and delivers a great cut weather your hair is straight or CURLY. I enjoyed being greeted, asked if I wanted water or tea and was shown to my seat where I was treated to a great shoulder massage. That wasn't expected. :) I can't be happy enough with this Salon and look forward to appointments knowing I'm going to walk away with a great cut and style. :) Sincerely, Angie Bakersfield,Ca.

Black Pearl Energy, a West Texas company located in Midland, is proud to introduce solutions to long-standing problems through out Texas.
In the midst of one of the worst droughts in Texas history and ongoing water concerns, we have come up with a solution to help conserve one of our most important resources
Fresh Water. Black Pearl has introduced a floating cover for fresh water frack pits that is engineered with a sophisticated arrangement of integrated floats and weighted ballasts that allows it to rise and fall with the different levels of water in the pit and also keeps it intact during the high west Texas winds. It eliminates evaporation and as a side benefit controls algae growth and doubles as a bird barrier.
Our floating evaporation covers have been engineered and designed with a specialized plastic consisting of floats and ballasts to eliminate evaporation. The covers can be adapted to any size pit. Water is a diminishing resource and with costs escalating to $0.50-$0.85 per barrel in addition to the cost of water transfer. If trucking water, the loss to evaporation in one month can pay for the cover, with typical ROI of 1-6 months.
Black Pearl also can provide above ground storage tanks of any size, these are a modular/portable design system and can include a double liner leak detection system. Applications include rocky soil that makes an earthen pit difficult and expensive to build, or when storing brine or brackish water that requires special pit permitting. Common volumes are 50,000 - 200,000 barrels.
