Hello, I will be assisting you
Other than the branding application form, did the owners have any written agreement as to ownership?
no, would it be good to have some kind of written agreement as to ownership and survival ownership in case of death?
Yes absolutely. Without a written agreement you may have a partnership that is subject to the default partnership rules. Under section 48-1-4 a partnership is created when a person receives a share of the profits of a business (generally courts have also interpreted that a partner should also share in the losses as well). So if the cattle was purchased together and there is an expectation of profit then you would have a de-facto partnership. In the unfortunate case that a partner passes away the partnership would then automatically dissolve the would be wound up (meaning that that debts of the partnership would have to be settled and its property distributed to the (former) partners and the deceased partner's estate. In effect this means that unless the cattle is sold and the proceeds are divided the remaining former partners would have to buy out the estate and they the they may continue to do business as a new partnership.
Therefore, you should consider entering into a written agreement as to the ownership of the cattle (not withstanding the branding application) or consider forming an LLC that would be the owner of the cattle and the partners will be members of the LLC. The LLC would have an operating agreement that will set out the rights and responsibilities of each member
(BTW, if you go the LLC route you would either need to amend the existing application or create a new branding application)
seem to have lost my response so will try again, ok, but if there are three people on the brand, as an example, any one of them can legally sell cattle with that brand, so any one of the three can sell any cattle with that brand whether the other two are living or dead, and have the proceeds, unless their right to do so is challenged, after the fact, by one of the other two. Am I wrong in this reasoning and if so how and why?
could a written agreement be written in utah as to the cattle being owned as an undivided ownership with right of ownership to the surviving owners in case of death?
If the partners did not agree in advance how management decisions of the partnership will be handled then all partners have equal rights in the management and conduct of the partnership. Therefore a partner can cause the sale of the cattle but the proceeds will be divided between the partners. This of course opens the door to some questionable behavior by partner who may choose to sell partnership property for some personal benefit. In such a case the partner will be personally liable for his/her actions.
upon death of one of the partners the partnership dissolves automatically and it will be up to the new partners (maybe the heirs) to form a new partnership. In addition, you cannot force anyone to form a partnership. So as per your question, you can specifically assign a partner's economic interest to the a certain person upon the death of the partner but all it means is that the assignee will have an economic interest in the cattle. As noted above, in the event of a dissolution the cattle will either need to be sold or the remaining partners can choose to get together and form a new partnership and buy out the assignee. You would not be able to force the remaining partners to form a partnership with the assignee. This type of an arrangement is better done through an LLC.
so you are saying that having three names on a brand recording automatically creates a partnership of the three people, in what respect, I know of brothers who have 2 or 3 names on the same brand but operate their cattle independently and have no partnership taxwise or other wise, in a case of that kind, if one brother dies could not the surviving brothers sell his cattle and disperse the proceeds as they saw fit unless someone legally protested, assuming all the cattle were branded the same? Or who can say how many cattle either person owns under that brand, as long as the people on the brand, or their heirs possibly, have no disagreement as to the ownership or the right to sell?
Maybe I was not clear enough, so apologies. Having three names on a brand with the intention of sharing profits and not having any other documents in place (such as some form of an agreement, title to cattle etc.) then a partnership would likely be created. If all parties (partners) agree to do something and actually do it then no problems and in such case it doesn't matter what you call it. If, however, things are not done the way they were supposed to then either follow any written agreements that exist or the default partnership rules. I always recommend to have a written agreement. Why rely on the state to write your agreement for you (in the form of the default rules)?
If title to cattle exists in the name of a person (or if the other partners acknowledge that this is person X's cattle) and if a partnership is deemed to exist as well then generally upon distribution of profits person X is generally first paid back the value of the cattle from the time person X brought the cattle to the partnership and any excesses are divided as profits among the partners. The partnership would own any new cattle that did not have a prior owner.
so if the partners are in agreement as to whose cattle are whose and who can sell what cattle, the irs or some government agency is not going to come in and challenge the selling of cattle or the income therefrom?
not with respect to the partnership because a partnership is a pass through entity (it does not pay taxes). All taxes are paid individually by the partners. As long as the individuals agree to divide the profits, pay their respective taxes and there is a proper basis for that division (the ownership of the cattle for example) then all should be well.

How loud music causes cell damage
31st August 2012 - It is well known that loud music can damage hearing, now a study by the University of Leicester has uncovered just how the damage is caused.
Nerve cells carrying electrical signals from the ears to the brain have a protective coating called the myelin sheath. Pumping up the volume and exposing ears to loud noise over 110 decibels can strip the cells of the coating. This disrupts the signals, causing hearing problems over time.
Action on Hearing Loss says some portable music players can be wound up to volumes of 100dB(A) - above danger levels and as loud as being next to a pneumatic drill at road works.
Cell damage
The research is said to be the first linking loud noise to damage to the coating on nerve cells and is published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Myelin sheath damage is believed to be the cause of nerve damage in multiple sclerosis.
Dr Martine Hamann from the University of Leicester department of cell physiology and pharmacology led the hearing loss study. "Dissecting the cellular mechanisms underlying this condition is likely to bring a very significant healthcare benefit to a wide population," she says in a news release. "The work will help prevention as well as progression into finding appropriate cures for hearing loss."
Dr Hamann says the sheath can rebuild itself allowing the nerve cells to work properly again, meaning hearing loss can be temporary. "We now understand why hearing loss can be reversible in certain cases. We showed that the sheath around the auditory nerve is lost in about half of the cells we looked at, a bit like stripping the electrical cable linking an amplifier to the loudspeaker.
"The effect is reversible and after three months, hearing has recovered and so has the sheath around the auditory nerve."
Earlier research by the Leicester team focussed on the effect of loud noise on the brain's dorsal cochlear nucleus. This carries signals from the ear's nerve cells the part of brain responsible for decoding and understanding sound.
Damage to cells in this area was found to cause tinnitus, or ringing in the ears.
Reacting to the findings in an emailed statement Action on Hearing Loss's head of biomedical research Dr Ralph Holme says: "Tinnitus erodes the quality of life for more than 600,000 people in the UK, which is why it is so important that effective treatments are developed to silence it.
"Only with more investment in research, like that being carried out at the University of Leicester, to better understand the cellular processes involved can we hope to find much needed cures."
Tips to protect hearing
Action on Hearing Loss offers tips on protecting hearing for people using personal music players.
It says good quality earphones or headphones are important. Some of the ones that come free with a gadget may be poor quality, leaking sound and letting in the background noise. To get round this, people simply turn up the volume, sometimes to dangerous levels.
The charity says sound-isolating or noise-cancelling headphones are better at blocking background noise, so listening volumes can be lower.
It also recommends regular breaks from music through earphones of at least five minutes an hour.
Many devices have volume limiting features which can be used to set safe maximum volume levels.

Majestic Leon, ugly press conference mark end of era at Club America
MEXICO CITY -- Leon had less than ten clear-cut chances on goal in the 180 minutes that encompassed the Liga MX Apertura 2013 final. They scored five. America easily had twice the total opportunities in front of William Yarbrough's net over the course of those same two games. They scored once.
In a nutshell, that tells the story of Club America's ultimately unsuccessful run towards history, and dashes the hopes of a fairy tale ending to an era that has rejuvenated the giant's standing as one of the top teams in Mexico and CONCACAF.
- Canales: Leon reigns supreme in Liga MX final
A lover of offensive tactics might lament Leon's victory given that their chance creation was decidedly less in the final than the prior 21 games they played this season, but in the end, the now six-time champs put away five superb goals that swung the balance of power in the league and gave fans of every other club except Club America a bit of happiness after it momentarily looked like the Eagles would claim the lone top spot in the pantheon of winners in the Liga MX.
Yes, Chivas fans can worry about one less thing tonight, as America won't best their 11 titles just yet. Sure, they have relegation and a bevy of mediocre signings to worry about for the Apertura 2014 campaign, but at least their hated rivals won't sow a twelfth star onto their uniforms.
Cruz Azul fans can bask in the glow that the team they themselves beat for their last league title (Dickensian coincidence, anyone?) in 1997 avenged their epic collapse in May and celebrated at the Estadio Azteca the way they planned to seven months ago.
Supporters of Pumas can continue to boast about their team being the only back-to-back winners since short tournaments were instituted in 1996. Sure, they might have had their worst season ever end mercifully just a few weeks ago, but their hated south side rivals' suffering is their schadenfreude until the Clausura 2014 kicks off.
After Leon's 3-1 romp at the Azteca and 5-1 aggregate over two legs, the official end of Miguel Herrera's tenure as America manager, as well as the presidency of former player Ricardo Pelaez, came with a sour taste, accentuated by Herrera's outburst at referees at the post-match press conference.
"There's a bunch of mediocre people there, and someone needs to do something about it. Don't get me wrong, I'll say it again so you don't run with this: Leon won justly. But we didn't get the opportunities that could have changed the game thanks to those mediocre people," Herrera said about referee Roberto Garcia Orozco.
The now-officially Mexican national team manager also dug into the prevailing thought that Rubens Sambueza, a player widely known for tiffs with opposing players and referees, was being punished and not given key calls when physically pounded by Leon players over two legs.
"That's two penalties. They beat us by four goals, yes, but those penalties could have changed things. There was another one outside the box, he doesn't get the call. What did he get? A yellow card. Maybe we miss the penalties and the opportunities, who knows? But you have to at least get the calls to have the chance to fairly change the match," he continued.
Moments later, when pressed for further comments over officials, as well as the surprise inclusion of Ecuador international Narciso Mina into the starting lineup, Herrera cursed at a reporter and vacated the conference.
Mina, a backup to Raul Jimenez and Luis Gabriel Rey for most of the season, arguably had four clear chances to stamp his authority on the second leg. He missed every single one. A close friend of deceased America legend Christian Benitez, Mina came to the club after scoring 31 goals in the Ecuador first division in 2012.
In his year at the Mexico City club, he was unable to replicate that form, and punctuated his weak performance by erring consistently until subbed out by Rey after 66 minutes. A little over a half hour later, the Leon team, led by Rafael Marquez and manager Gustavo Matosas were dancing on the Azteca pitch, celebrating the team's first title run in two decades.
Herrera, accompanied by Pelaez and assistant manager Santiago Banos, all architects of the team's prior success, vanished into the Mexico City night, now looking forward to their chance to make history with another squad: the Mexican national team.

UPEI president Alaa Abd-El-Aziz is facing allegations of sexual harassment after a university employee filed a human rights complaint against him.
Tom Cullen, chairman of UPEI's board of governors, said he couldn't provide much information about the complaint but did confirm the board was aware of it.
"There has been a harassment complaint lodged with the human rights commission and we are cooperating with that process," he said.
As for the nature of the complaint, Cullen said it involved allegations of inappropriate comments between colleagues.
None of the allegations have been proven and the complaint has not gone before a human rights panel for a hearing.
Once a complaint is filed, the commission's executive director can work with both parties to find a resolution or he can dismiss the claim if he finds the complaint has no merit.
If the complaint proceeds and the two sides can't come to a resolution it will then go before a panel for a hearing.
In the meantime, Abd-El-Aziz is still on the job and Cullen said the board of governors has determined it wasn't necessary for him to take a leave of absence.
"With the information that is available to the board of governors, we have determined that at this time," he said.
Cullen referred further questions to the P.E.I. Human Rights Commission.
The Guardian contacted Greg Howard, the commission's executive director, who said he couldn't confirm or deny if a complaint was filed.
Normally information about filed complaints is available, but the executive director can withhold information at the request of the complainant or respondent.

Continuously monitoring the operation of each individual fan can significantly improve the measurement quality of aerial pollutant emissions from animal buildings that have a large number of fans. To monitor the fan operation by detecting the fan vibration is a relatively new technique. A low-cost electronic vibration sensor was developed and commercialized. However, its large scale application has not yet been evaluated. This paper presents long-term performance results of this vibration sensor at two large commercial layer houses. Vibration sensors were installed on 164 fans of 130 cm diameter to continuously monitor the fan on/off status for two years. The performance of the vibration sensors was compared with fan rotational speed (FRS) sensors. The vibration sensors exhibited quick response and high sensitivity to fan operations and therefore satisfied the general requirements of air quality research. The study proved that detecting fan vibration was an effective method to monitor the on/off status of a large number of single-speed fans. The vibration sensor itself was $2 more expensive than a magnetic proximity FRS sensor but the overall cost including installation and data acquisition hardware was $77 less expensive than the FRS sensor. A total of nine vibration sensors failed during the study and the failure rate was related to the batches of product. A few sensors also exhibited unsteady sensitivity. As a new product, the quality of the sensor should be improved to make it more reliable and acceptable.
Air pollution has become one of the most significant environmental concerns in sustainable agriculture development. Excess emissions of agricultural pollutants can result in environmental pollution [
Researchers began to experimentally study agricultural air quality (AAQ) in the 1950s, with a two-day measurement of ammonia (NH3) concentration in a broiler house [
To accurately determine air pollutant emission rates from an animal building, continuous measurement of ventilation rate and pollutant concentration are both imperative, because the air pollutant emission rate is the product of ventilation rate and pollutant concentration. The concentrations of pollutants can usually be analyzed off-site by collecting samples from animal buildings with subsequent laboratory analysis, or determined on-site and real-time by using gas analyzers or sensors. Although pollutant sampling and concentration measurement has a common issue with quality assurance and quality control [
The current methods for ventilation rate measurement varied in different studies at different types of animal buildings. There are three continuous monitoring methods available for the mechanically ventilated animal buildings with large numbers of ventilation fans. They include fan rotation methods, airspeed measurement methods, and fan indication methods [
Fan on/off status represents the fan operation and can be used to record the operation time of individual fans. The recorded data are valuable in estimating fan airflow rates to improve pollutant emission rate calculation. Fan on/off data can be converted to airflow rate by using fan performance models and static pressures. The fan performance model describes the mathematical relationship between fan airflow rate and the static pressure that the fan has to overcome. It can be obtained in controlled laboratory conditions and verified on-site using a portable fan testing device or the traverse method. On-site fan test is necessary because fan capacity can drop from 12% to 55% between published and as-found airflow rates at field conditions due to fan degradation [
The principle of fan on/off status monitoring is based on some special physical and electrical phenomena between operating and stopping of the fan. Fan on/off monitoring using vibration sensors has several advantages, including low cost, easy installation, small size, real-time monitoring, and freedom from dust and wind interference [
At a NAEMS layer hen monitoring site, vibration sensors were used to individually monitor 164 fans for two years. The objective of this work was to study this case of vibration sensor application. Specifically, this study aimed to:
describe the large scale application of the new vibration sensor in long-term air quality research, compare the reliability and accuracy of the vibration sensor with the FRS sensor, and evaluate the applicability and future improvement of the sensor.
describe the large scale application of the new vibration sensor in long-term air quality research,
compare the reliability and accuracy of the vibration sensor with the FRS sensor, and
evaluate the applicability and future improvement of the sensor.
The monitoring site was located in northeast Indiana and was one of 15 barn monitoring sites in the NAEMS. This site consisted of an egg-processing plant, two high-rise caged-hen houses, eight manure-belt caged-hen layer houses, two cage-free laying houses, and one free standing manure shed [
Each house was 140.2 m long and 19.5 m wide and had 14 variable-speed and 74 single-speed wall fans of 130 cm diameter (VX511F3CR, Aerotech Inc., Mason, Mich.). The two houses were almost identical except for the spatial distribution of Fans 20 to 33. The rotational speeds of the seven variable-speed fans (Fans 1, 10, 21, 25, 28, 31, and 33) in each side wall were controlled by a single controller. All the variable-speed fans operated continuously.
The single-speed fans in each house were grouped into 12 stages, each of which consisted of 4 to 12 fans. Fans in the same stage were spatially distributed as uniformly as possible in the house and operated simultaneously. The fan control systems in the houses were temperature-based. They automatically turned on more stages of fans to provide better cooling when the in-house temperature was higher, so that the fans operated only when needed.
A total of 164 vibration sensors (Model OSU-06, Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio) were installed for fan on/off status monitoring in the two houses. The 148 single-speed fans were all monitored with vibration sensors. The FRS of the 28 variable-speed fans were monitored with magnetic proximity FRS sensors (Model Cherry MP100701, Cherry Corporation, Pleasant Prairie, Wisc.) to provide real-time data for the rotational speed of fan blades. Sixteen of the 28 variable-speed fans were also monitored with vibration sensors. The vibration sensor used in this study was the integration of an embeddable accelerometer (ADXL320, Analog Devices, Norwood, Mass.), which was also known as micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS), and a single conditional circuit including a decouple capacitor, a diode array, a resistor-capacitor filter, an operational amplifier (MAX495, Maxim Integrated Products, Sunnyvale, Cal.), and a Schmitt trigger circuit (SN74LVC2G14, Texas Instruments, Dallas, Texas) [
Data from all on-line instruments and sensors at the measurement site, including the vibration and FRS sensors, were acquired by an on-site computer system (OSCS) in the mobile lab (
The performance of the vibration sensors were assessed at the variable-speed fans so that the sensors could be tested at conditions of different fan vibration frequencies and magnitudes due to the variation of fan speeds. In addition, the FRS sensors installed in the variable-speed fans provided reference signals to be compared with the responses of the vibration sensors.
To assess the measurement accuracy, which is a qualitative term [
The average error (Ea) was calculated with N = number of measurement points (dimensionless) ti,FRS = converted operation time based on FRS sensor measurement at ti,Vb = percentage of fan operation time measured by vibration sensor at
N = number of measurement points (dimensionless)
ti,FRS = converted operation time based on FRS sensor measurement at
ti,Vb = percentage of fan operation time measured by vibration sensor at
The standard deviation (
Comparison between the vibration sensors and the FRS sensors was used to analyze the vibration sensor performances including measurement errors and response time, because the FRS sensors had higher time resolution in their digital output signals. Based on the conversion criteria in
To study the cases of vibration sensor failure and the environmental effects on the sensor signals, data obtained from different sensors on the same fan stage were analyzed. Sensor failure was identified when signals from several sensors on fans of the same stage did not match with each other.
If the fan was off and the sensor responded to the knocking normally, a sensor signal spike was seen immediately in the real-time 1 Hz signal charts in the OSCS [
The average error and SDE analyzed from the eight pairs of 18.3-h data illustrated that the measurement errors introduced by the vibration sensors could be divided into two groups ( Continuous fan operation. The average error and SDE for each paired comparison was equal to zero when the fan was in continuous operation (no on/off switch). Non-continuous fan operation. The average error and SDE for each paired comparison was close to zero and negligible when the fan was switched on and off during the tests.
Continuous fan operation. The average error and SDE for each paired comparison was equal to zero when the fan was in continuous operation (no on/off switch).
Non-continuous fan operation. The average error and SDE for each paired comparison was close to zero and negligible when the fan was switched on and off during the tests.
Compared with the FRS sensors, the variation of SDEs at different on/off switch times, as shown in the first four rows in
During the 2-year field application, there was one recorded observation of interference on the measurement of vibration sensors by extremely heavy rain during a thunderstorm. The heavy rain drops striking the fan cone generated vibration signals. These signals were clearly seen in the computer monitor as spikes similar to the ones shown in
This information recorded in the 1-min data file could be interpreted as if the fans were turned on and off quickly. However, the ventilation fans were not controlled to be switched "on" and "off" within a 1-min period. Therefore, these errors that were introduced by heavy rains could be easily identified and filtered during post-measurement data processing. No other interferences that introduced signal errors were noticed during the field study.
A total of nine out of the 164 installed vibration sensors failed, causing them to completely unresponsive to fan operations, and were replaced during the 2-year study. The average sensor failure rate was 5.5% (
Data from the field application indicated that the sensor failure rates were related to the different batches of vibration sensors during manufacturing. In the field setup, the vibration sensors were received in three batches.
Recorded data demonstrated that a few vibration sensors suddenly stopped responding to fan vibrations after a normal operational period. This type of sensor problem apparently was associated with the failure of electronic components inside the sensor. Because the sensor was at initial production stage and the three batches were manufactured on different dates, the variation of failure rates among the batches might be associated with the sensor manufacturing quality.
In addition to the complete failure of some sensors, unsteady sensitivity was a problem encountered during the study. Based on the original field report and data analysis, the cases of unsteady sensitivity shared some common features (
The problem shown in
Sensor 2 was replaced with a new sensor on June 26, 2009. The new sensor restored the signals that agreed well with the normal sensor (Sensor 1). This case demonstrated that the unsteady sensor could start from small errors of 1% and the errors could gradually increase to 100%, leading to eventual failure. This process of failure could last for as long as four months. This type of failure might be the result from a gradual wearing-out of sensor inner mechanism, which manifested time-accumulated decay. There were two vibration sensor failures that matched this case during the two year study. Comparison of signals of different vibration sensors that monitored the same stage fans could help to identify failing sensors, replace them in time, and reduce monitoring errors. However, a vibration sensor with more stable sensitivity will help to improve data quality.
Cost is always one of the main factors for sensor selection in research projects with limited funding. Compared with a Cherry MP100701 magnetic proximity FRS sensor that cost $30 each in this study for FRS measurement, a vibration sensor was $2 more expensive (
Moreover, the PC and Windows operation system for DAQ had limitations on the number of USB DAQ devices. The OSCS in this air quality study that acquired data at 1 Hz could only connect to maximum of six USB-4303 counters, each with 10 FRS sensors [
Both vibration sensors and FRS sensors demonstrated the quick response and high sensitivity to fan operations needed in fan monitoring in air quality studies. However, the vibration sensors only detected fan on/off status while the FRS sensors provided fan rotational speed information, which is critical when monitoring variable-speed fans.
The method of single-speed fan monitoring by detecting its vibration was proved to be effective and a good option when monitoring large numbers of single-speed ventilation fans in air quality research. The technical issues of this particular vibration sensor,
The ventilation sensor [
Theoretically, all fans in the same fan stage at an animal building should operate simultaneously. In reality, however, it often happens randomly that one or more fans do not operate as other fans in the same stage due to fan failure, power problem, maintenance, or other reasons. This introduces ventilation measurement errors if these fans are not individually monitored. Therefore, monitoring all ventilation fans individually and continuously in comprehensive air quality studies is recommended instead of only monitoring selected fans to represent all fans in a stage. This study demonstrated that the low cost and simple data acquisition requirement of the vibration sensors have made the all-fan monitoring economically and technically feasible.
However, it is also recommended that the quality of the vibration sensor be greatly improved to reduce the failure rate. This is essential to increase the confidence level of fan monitoring and make the vibration sensor more acceptable.
The 164 vibration sensors in the two-year study demonstrated their applicability and proved that detecting fan vibration was an effective method to monitor the on/off status of single-speed ventilation fans. However, the vibration sensor was not preferred for variable-speed fan airflow determination.
The vibration sensors had quick response and high sensitivity to fan operations and could satisfy general requirements of air quality research. On-site inspections of their operation were convenient.
The tested vibration sensors had an average failure rate of 5.5% during the two-year study. Some sensors demonstrated unsteady sensitivities and gradual increases in signal errors that lasted for four months. Comparison of sensor signals from the same stage of fans could help to identify sensor problems for early correction.
Interferences (e.g., caused by heavy rain drops) to the vibration sensors could be identified if the sensor signals showed below 20% operation time in the 1-min data. These errors could be filtered and corrected during post-measurement data processing.
Although the vibration sensor cost $2 more than the magnetic proximity FRS sensor, its installation and data acquisition hardware cost was $77 lower than the FRS sensor. The vibration sensor was suitable for monitoring large numbers of single-speed fans with reasonable costs.
It is recommended that all fans be individually and continuously monitored in comprehensive air quality studies to increase confidence in aerial emission measurement. The vibration sensor was proved to be economically affordable and technically feasible for the all-fan monitoring.
As a new product, the technical issues of the vibration sensor, including sensor failure and drifting sensitivity, all appeared to be related to the sensor manufacturing quality that should be improved to increase its reliability.

As business owners we are always looking for new ways to connect with new potential clients, streamline the delivery of our products or services, and generate more revenue with less output of time or other resources.
I spoke to a tentative entrepreneur yesterday. After two years in business she finally realized she is not asking for business. Instead she was mostly hoping it just shows up. Another busy entrepreneur mentioned she is afraid to raise her prices even though she is not generating enough revenue and her client schedule is full.
Coaching entrepreneurs since my mid-twenties, I have seen over and over that being successful at owning your own business requires a willingness to walk the path of personal growth and transformation as well as doing your business. Whatever self-esteem, interpersonal or social challenges you have not worked out, whether you are 21 or 61, they are going to walk in your door, call you on the phone and become your clients, fulfilling some cosmic equation that gives you the opportunity to "work out all your stuff" while you build your business. If you are unwilling to deal with these issues, your business is unlikely to grow or evolve.
We never finish working out our stuff. As your business evolves there will be new issues to resolve. Then you can evolve your business. After you have celebrated your business' second anniversary, it is time to add a whole new focus on your efforts that keep your business evolving.
Your personal evolution will be easier if you have a lust for learning, are always looking to better yourself, and if you have a business philosophy that demands that you always deliver your best.
If, however, you started your own business because you loved the technical side – being a graphic designer, an accountant, a clothing designer – you may not be as inclined to embrace cold calling, public speaking or quarterly sales projections. If you have your own business, you are your business and the success of your business is largely based on your willingness to grow and learn, think differently, ask different questions and perhaps be willing to be uncomfortable.
I remember the day a whole new and exciting dimension was added to my business, the day more than twelve years ago when I said "yes" to writing an article for this paper even though I had never written a business article before. I did not know at the time that that would lead to hundreds of additional articles, a bestselling book and lots of info products. Are you saying yes to any opportunity that could add a new dimension and possibly an additional income stream to your business? Are you seeking out new opportunities to expand your offerings? If not take a look.
There are a few obvious places to start to evolve your business. Educate yourself regarding the emerging trends in your industry and begin to incorporate a couple that could work for your business.
The same goes for technology specific to your industry or business solutions in general. Find out what is out there that could serve you and your clients better, faster, and more effectively. Even in a personal service business, automation solutions can make you happy every day.
One strategy to keep your business evolving is as old as the adding machine – take time every day for thinking and planning. Take more time at the end of each week and month and take a good two days towards the end of the year to plan for the next year. That is what successful people do. They think about what challenges they face and think about how to find solutions. They think about what they do and try to come up with better ways to do what they do. They think about new possibilities for their businesses and write up an action plan where they try some new things.
Another thing about those at the helm of businesses that are more evolved is that while they let their ideas gestate and brainstorm. Once they come up with a good idea they do not sit on it forever – they make decisions quickly and take immediate action.
Incorporate some of these strategies and you will keep your business fresh for yourself and your clients. What action are you going to take today to evolve your business?

International Membership FAQ
The Frequently Asked Questions below outline the reasons for and benefits of international membership in EDUCAUSE. Before reviewing these FAQs, please read about the EDUCAUSE approach to International Engagement.
Questions and Answers
1. Is EDUCAUSE an international association?
EDUCAUSE invites institutions from around the world to join our community. As technology continues to remove barriers to learning, knowledge sharing, and collaboration, international engagement is increasingly important to colleges and universities wherever they are located. International perspectives on the role of information technology (IT) in advancing higher education are thus of growing importance to EDUCAUSE and our member institutions.
Although EDUCAUSE only offers face-to-face conferences and professional development opportunities in the United States, we increasingly offer online events that are accessible globally. Our publications and content emphasize trends and issues of concern to domestic higher education audiences yet such topics often have relevance internationally. While we value international participation, EDUCAUSE remains a primarily U.S. organization. We occasionally support events hosted in other countries.
2. What does international membership in EDUCAUSE include?
International membership in EDUCAUSE is available to any non-U.S. institution of higher education. International members enjoy benefits similar to those received by U.S. members, including discounted registration for EDUCAUSE face-to-face and online events; free subscriptions to the association's flagship magazine, EDUCAUSE Review. International member representatives may also serve on advisory and program committees, work on special groups and task forces, present at the annual and regional conferences, review conference session proposals, submit articles for EDUCAUSE publications, contribute effective practices and other materials to the EDUCAUSE Resource Center, and connect with colleagues of similar interests and experience through our online Member Directory and our Constituent and Discussion Groups. More details about member benefits can be found on our Institutional Membership page.
3. Why is there a flat fee for international membership?
International members receive many of the same member benefits as U.S. institutions. However, international member representatives are often unable to take advantage of member registration rates for face-to-face events or resources that address higher education and technology policies of the United State government to the same extent as their U.S. counterparts. Therefore, international members receive a substantially reduced rate on their membership dues.
In addition, the membership rates for U.S. institutions are determined by their Carnegie classification (a system that categorizes colleges and universities by mission and complexity) and the size of their full-time enrollments. The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching does not include international institutions in its classification system, making it difficult to assign international institutions to dues categories without significant analysis and effort on behalf of the international member and the association.
For these reasons, EDUCAUSE has decided that charging a single flat rate for international membership provides the best balance between the costs and benefits of international membership for both international members and the association. As an exception, Canadian institutions pay a different rate than the general international membership fee. Canada's geographic proximity makes it easier for representatives from its EDUCAUSE member institutions to attend EDUCAUSE events, but travel issues and differences in higher education and government between the United States and Canada limit their ability to utilize EDUCAUSE member benefits to the same extent as U.S.-based institutions. Therefore, membership rates for Canadian institutions are based on student enrollments using a scale that starts at a significantly lower fee level than the one applied to U.S. colleges and universities.
4. How do I find out if my organization belongs to EDUCAUSE and, if so, who our member representatives are?
Please check for your institution's name in the EDUCAUSE Member Directory. The name, title, contact information, and member status of each representative is provided. You may also want to review the list of more than 260 international institutions and organizations, representing more than 40 countries, that belong to EDUCAUSE.
5. What types of EDUCAUSE representatives do international member organizations have? What are their duties and privileges?
Each international member institution designates one primary and eight participating representatives. Primary and participating representatives receive free subscriptions to EDUCAUSE Review. In addition, the primary representative votes in the annual EDUCAUSE Board of Directors election, designates participating representatives, has an institutional voice in the annual Core Data Service and Top IT Issues surveys, and receives important communications for higher education IT leaders.
All full-time employees of a member institution are considered "member representatives" of the institution, meaning that they are eligible for the member registration rate for EDUCAUSE conferences and events as well as to stand for election to the EDUCAUSE Board of Directors if nominated. Canadian institutions have different dues from other international institutions, as explained in the response to question 3, with the number of participating representative slots each receives varying by institutional size.
6. Will EDUCAUSE help start or sponsor an association chapter or a conference in another country or allow its name to be used for such a venture?
EDUCAUSE does not sponsor international conferences or association chapters in other countries. The association may work with another organization focused on information technology in higher education, such as the Council of Australian University Directors of Information Technology (CAUDIT) in Australia, to support it in developing programs, events, and other resources for its members. EDUCAUSE largely contributes to such efforts by consulting on possible themes and issues; identifying and recruiting experts from the EDUCAUSE member community to serve as presenters, panelists, and work group members; and facilitating knowledge sharing.
EDUCAUSE does not become financially or contractually involved in these activities, however, and the use of the EDUCAUSE name and logo in association with another organization's event, activity, resource, or the like requires prior written approval by the president of EDUCAUSE.

Citation: Burelle, N.K., Samac, D.A. 2003. Use of gram-positive bacteria as biological control agents for plant parasitic nematodes. Journal of Nematology. 35:347-348. Interpretive Summary: Two types of bacteria with potential for commercial development as biological control agents for plant parasitic nematodes are plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) and species of Streptomyces. A PGPR formulation that has been shown to improve plant vigor, reduce disease severity and increase yield of tomato, pepper, muskmelon and watermelon in Florida is available as BioYieldTM. Streptomyces spp. are well known to be important components of disease suppressive soils, and certain species produce potent nematicidal chemical compounds known as avermectins, which have been formulated into many commercial nematicides and insecticides. Current research results on use of these types of bacteria for plant parasitic nematode control will be discussed in this Biological Control Symposium presentation at the annual meeting for the Society of Nematologists.
Technical Abstract: Gram-positive bacteria are well-suited for development as biological control agents for plant parasitic nematodes because many are easy to culture, produce a wide array of chemical compounds, and form spores that enable drying and storage of formulations. Two types of gram-positive bacteria with potentially different modes of action will be discussed. The first type is plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). Numerous PGPR are gram-positive bacteria, and of these, many are Bacillus spp. Mechanisms for disease reduction with PGPR are primarily considered to be indirect. PGPR often induce systemic resistance or increase tolerance to pathogens in the host plant, resulting in increased plant growth and yield. In Florida field trials, two gram-positive PGPR isolates (Bacillus subtilis strain GBO3 and B. amyloliquifaciens strain IN937a) in a formulation containing chitin, reduced root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) galling and improved root condition of pepper (Capsicum anuum) and muskmelon (Cucumis melo) when added to transplant media at seeding. A second type of gram-positive bacteria with biological control activity against nematodes is Streptomyces. Streptomyces spp. have been isolated from many disease suppressive soils and some exhibit direct antagonism of plant parasitic nematodes through the production of antihelminthic compounds such as macrocyclic lactones. Several isolates of Streptomyces previously shown to suppress potato scab disease (Streptomyces scabies) in the field were shown to also reduce populations of root lesion nematodes (Pratylenchus penetrans) in both susceptible and resistant alfalfa (Medicago sativa) varieties. Studies are underway to evaluate the effects of these Streptomyces isolates on root-knot nematode populations and to determine if they also induce systemic resistance responses in the host.

Josh Thomspon Heads To Vapor
Bud Light Country Nights at Vapor were huge in 2010, with hundreds of fans showing up each month for line dance lessons, country dancing, and big prizes. Vapor kicks off the 2011 season with Columbia recording artist Josh Thompson live in concert on Thursday, January 20.
As usual, I'll warm up the hardwood with the best in Country Dance Music from 7-9pm. Then, WGNA welcomes one of the new stars of Nashville on the big stage at 9pm. With three big hits under his belt, Josh Thompson is on his way to a great catalog of hit songs. "Beer On The Table," "Way Out Here," and "Won't Be Lonely Long," have become favorites on the WGNA play list!
According to Josh Thompson's web site, he went to work for his father's pavement company during the day, while making music at night trying to make his dream a reality.
"I was still pouring concrete three days a week. A lot of times I'd start at 7, then wash off with a garden hose and head to a writing appointment. Some nights I'd write songs until 2:30, get up at 6, splash some water on my face and do it again."
Josh was one of the lucky ones who found his way to Nashville. Like so many others, he got his big break making connections and showcasing his talent at writer's nights. After scoring a cut on Jason Michael Carrol's album, "Growing Up Is Gettin' Old," he caught the attention of record exectuives who offered him a deal to make music.
Josh Thomspon rocks Vapor Nightclub in Saratoga Gaming and Raceway on Thursday, January 20th. Visit www.vapornightclub.com for more information.

What seems to be lost here is that any unauthorized copy is a violation of

some effort to get hooked into the ILL system of their local library so they
can get access to the articles they want. Often times the libraries will have
online access to large databases that have these articles. Many university
libraries have Friends of the Library organizations that may give you access
to ILL services. The library organizations have made arrangements with the

These guys have definitely heard of Judas Priest. Especially in the vocals department! Riot broke up in 1984, and were reformed in 1986 by sole remaining founding member Mark Reale, who recruited, among others, Harry Conklin. Harry left the band, and in came someone even more screaming and over-the-top: Tony Moore! The vocals here are very close to those of none other than Rob Halford, and when one throws in some blazing guitar work, and the drumming of none other than current Halford stickman Bobby Jarzombek, it's total fucking Judas Priest worship.
The first few songs on here are wicked fucking fast - almost Painkiller 2 years before the fact. They're catchy, and have nice lead and rhythm guitars, especially the main riffs on "Flight of the Warrior". It is on the fifth song where we slow down just a slight bit. "On Wings of Eagles" has almost a Deep Purple-on-crack sound to it (almost, but not quite that of Judas Priest, from "Screaming for Vengeance" era).
Side two begins features "Run for Your Life" (actually the second Riot song by that name, completely unrelated to the first, from the "Fire Down Under" album). This may be the best song on here - fast, furious, and a killer guitar solo. We close with the epic "The Telltale Heart", which is 9 minutes of fun. More midpaced than anything else, and the riffs have almost a thrash intensity to them.
Overall, quite a nice fucking album. I got this on tape once for 49 cents - fucken bargain, huh? Oh and don't let the band picture throw you off... yeah they got the silly big hair, but this album fucking shreds!!

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 31/3/2014 (1211 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
While the winter just won't end, neither will the onslaught of frozen water pipes on Winnipeg properties.
New statistics released by the City of Winnipeg on Monday showed there were 23 new reports of frozen water pipes since Saturday.
The total is 2,282 reports of frozen pipes this winter since last November.
More people are waiting for help from the city's thawing machines as 1,349 properties, up nine from Saturday, are still waiting for help to thaw pipes.
There are 610 properties with no water at all due to frozen pipes, down slightly from the 627 reported Saturday.
The new statistics showed 933 properties have had water restored and 739 have city-installed temporary hose lines.
There are 7,248 properties identified as at an increased risk of having their water pipes freeze and an interruption in water service.
In addition to water-main breaks and dramatic potholes, Winnipeg's relentless winter has caused hundreds of water-supply lines to freeze, especially in neighbourhoods such as River Heights, where the frost has penetrated deeper than it ever has.

When Newt Gingrich called for a permanent moon base during his presidential campaign, he got a mocking SNL skit for his troubles. But Christopher Carson isn't laughing. He wants to move to the moon permanently, and he wants to go now. Carson is one of the stars of Simon Ennis's documentary "Lunarcy!" The movie was screened at E Street Cinemas in D.C. Monday night, and it's very, very good. Here's a taste, focusing on Carson:
Ennis also talks to Dennis Hope, who claims to be the rightful owner of the Moon under international law. That section of the documentary has been excerpted into the following short:
Last but not least there's Peter Kokh, the longtime writer of the Moon Miners' Manifesto, a regular newsletter concerned with lunar issues:
"Lunarcy!" screens on the cable channel Epix on April 3. It's really worth your time.

Subject Area Committees
Subject Area Committees (SACs) are composed of all faculty who teach in a PCC subject area or program, and address the instructional and curriculum concerns of their respective disciplines. These committees represent and articulate those subject area and program issues which are defined by the PCC Mission Statement and College-wide Core Outcomes, and the Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges.
SACs assist in coordinating curricula of all course offerings within individual disciplines or in a group of related disciplines on a college-wide basis.
The college-wide SAC is the proper forum for discussion of curriculum issues that have college-wide impact. SACs make recommendations regarding internal academic/curricular issues as well as such issues as high school/college articulation and community college/baccalaureate college articulation and review grant applications when requested, review student petitions to waive graduation requirements (only when requested by appropriate administrative personnel), and participate in course and program analysis.
SACs are not designed to negotiate or adjudicate issues that are of a contractual nature. Issues such as faculty compensation, faculty assessment, campus assignments, sabbatical leaves, and hours and days of assignment, for example, are contractual/administration issues which are resolved through mechanisms established by the collective bargaining agreement.
However, SACs may make recommendations regarding issues which would, in the SAC's view, have an impact on instructional programs at PCC.
Membership and Organization
Each SAC will have as members all faculty (including one-year temporary positions and part-time instructors) teaching in a given academic area or program. Each SAC will make a recommendation regarding voting rights for part-time instructors in the SAC to the Dean of Academic Services. SAC membership may be limited to one campus only when SAC membership is exclusively at that campus. Part-time instructors are encouraged but not required to attend SAC meetings.
Each SAC will make a recommendation regarding voting rights for part-time instructors in the SAC to the Dean of Academic Services. Note: A formal recommendation would now need to be made to the Dean of Academic Services.
The chairperson of the SAC will be a faculty member elected by the voting members of the entire committee. The term of office will be one to three years, and two members may share the position. Multi-campus SAC chairs should be rotated among the campuses. Only the elected representative of a SAC should bear the title of SAC Chair; representatives of segments of a SAC should be designated by a title other than SAC Chair.
An Administrative Support Person will be assigned to each single-campus SAC by the Executive Deans; in the case of multi-campus SACs, the Dean of Academic Services will appoint the administrative support person in consultation with the Executive Deans.
Meetings, Operation, and Recommendation Reporting
At a minimum, each SAC will meet once during fall term, winter term, and spring term. In the case of multi-campus SACs, all members must be notified at least seven days prior to the meeting date. Minutes are the responsibility of the Administrative Support person.
The SAC Chair or Administrative Support person will submit SAC recommendations to the Dean of Academic Services or to EAC, as appropriate. The Administrative Support person will distribute copies of recommendations to all of those who receive copies of the minutes. (See Administrative Support responsibilities below.) The Dean of Academic Services will be responsible for responding to SAC recommendations. If the recommendation is not approved, the SAC shall be given the opportunity to supply additional information to the Dean of Academic Services or the EAC and to appeal that recommendation. Recommendations are sent in memo format (separate from the minutes). Minority reports may also be submitted.
SAC chairs and SAC members may attend the EAC and participate as a guest for any issue on the EAC agenda regardless of which department submitted the item. In addition, SAC chairs or others may request that items be put on the agenda for discussion.
SAC Responsibilities
Course Challenges - If a SAC decides to allow a course challenge, it will develop and review the challenge by subject area as appropriate and make recommendations on additions, modifications, or deletions. Recommendations are to be submitted to the Dean of Academic Services for approval.
Course Content & Outcomes Guides - Course Content & Outcomes Guide (CCOGs) are to be developed by appropriate faculty. SACs must review and approve CCOGs. All CCOGs must be reviewed and updated every three years. CCOGs are submitted to the Curriculum Office and posted on the Internet.
Equipment Purchases - A SAC will review and make recommendations to the appropriate Division Dean and the Dean of Instruction and/or Dean of Student Development for purchases of equipment that impact its curricula. Those purchases with a significant impact on more than one campus, will be transmitted to the Dean of Academic Services and then shared with the Executive Deans.
Faculty Qualifications – The SACs shall recommend criteria for selection of all faculty in accordance with college-wide practices. SAC instructor qualifications recommendations are submitted to the Dean of Academic Services for approval in consultation with the Deans of Instruction. Once instructor qualifications have been approved, SACs and administrators will follow them when hiring faculty.
General Education/Curriculum - Upon development of a new course that is deemed to be general in nature, a SAC may recommend that course to the General Education/Curriculum Committee for inclusion in the GEN ED list. SACs will follow the procedures for approval as established by the General Education/Curriculum Committee. Recommendations will be sent directly to EAC.
Library Holdings - SACs will review library holdings in appropriate subject areas and make recommendations for additional purchases or deletions. Recommendations will be submitted to the Director of the Learning Resource Center.
New Courses/Programs and Course/Program Revisions – SACs are responsible for reviewing outcomes and assessment strategies for all courses taught in their subject areas. SACs will make recommendations for all new courses, new programs, major course revisions, minor course and program revisions, and distance modality proposals for courses or programs. New course and program proposals submitted to the Curriculum Committee will indicate modalities intended to be used. Where no SAC exists for a course/program, the Dean of Academic Services, in consultation with the appropriate Executive Dean in the case of a single-campus SAC, will appoint a SAC to make academic recommendations.
For any existing course proposed to be taught entirely by distance modality, or by a combination of modalities that may, in the SAC's view, affect SAC-approved outcomes or assessment for a course, SAC recommendations are submitted to the Dean of Academic Services. SAC recommendations will be based on learning outcomes and assessment activities approved by the College for distance education, and the college-wide core outcomes.
Course Descriptions, Course Prerequisites, corequisites and Recommended Courses - SACs are to approve all course descriptions, course prerequisites, corequisites and recommended courses.
Course and Program Assessment - SACs will have the responsibility to participate fully in program and learning outcome assessment activities, and review outcomes and student assessments for all courses and Programs. That review will be based on learning outcomes and assessment activities approved by the SAC and academic quality criteria for distance education approved by the College.
Program and Course Evaluation - Requirements for courses and programs will be reviewed during Fall Term. If there are recommended changes, they should be made in time to meet catalog deadlines. The catalog and brochures must be reviewed and updated as appropriate.
Entry-Level and Exit-Level Requirements - The SACs will make recommendations for program requirements and will periodically review and modify these requirements. Recommendations are submitted to the Deans of Instruction and then to the Dean of Academic Services for approval.
Textbook Selection and Instructional Materials - Each SAC will develop a procedure for approving textbooks, software and any other instructional materials that may affect SAC-approved outcomes or assessment for a course.
Other Responsibilities – As noted above, SACs may make recommendations regarding any issue which would have a college-wide impact on instructional programs. Such issues might include class size, program allocation to a campus or a center, etc. Recommendations will be made to the Dean of Academic Services.

FSU warned that new search could be a "sham"
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) - Florida State University is revamping its search for a new president but the school has been warned that this new search is likely to be seen as a "sham."
Emails obtained by the associated press show that the consultant first hired to help FSU told the search committee that the university was trying to "concoct a competitive process."
Before Bill Funk resigned in June he told FSU trustee Ed Burr that FSU would not be able to attract "viable candidates" as long as powerful republican politician John Thrasher remained a candidate.
Thrasher was initially designated as the main candidate. But the search was then revamped. Candidates wanting the job have until September to apply. School officials expect to pick a new president by the end of that month.

Navigation and Voice Command Volume problems
So I've searched and read a lot of threads to see if anyone has this issue, but the solutions haven't seemed to work for me. So I'll post the question and see if anyone else had/has a similar issue.
Voice Command - it's functional, the icon appears on the display, it mutes the radio to listen, it responds/does what I ask. However, there are no audio tones/speech. Of course, I've already tired to adjust the volume with the knob when I think she's talking, but i still can't hear anything.
Navigation - Same story. Navigation works, it displays correctly, it's in the HUD, etc. However, it will not speak any instruction. I've also attempted to adjust the volume when I know the nav person should be speaking (as the radio is muted to obviously provide an instruction).
I've double checked, the navigation instructions are not muted. I've attempted to raise the volume while it should be speaking (assuming it's just to low to hear), but I still can't get any audio output on those 2 functions.
Any ideas?
You need to read your manual and learn to use use idrive. When you are on the Nav screen, use the Idrive control knob to scroll up to the voice command icon. I believe it is the top one or 2nd one from the top (has a person talking on it). Once it is highlighted, push in the idrive selector and a check mark will show up. Voice command is now active.
Read your manual if you want to learn how to do the other volume settings in Idrive, but it is all there. Hope that helps.
Sorry, I thought I made it clear in the original post that I had read the manual AND searched the forum trying various volume knob/unmute solutions already. In fact, I've read the manual cover to cover and cannot solve this problem.
Can you explain, what is the correlation between voice command prompts not audibly working as well as navigation directions not being spoken?
I also don't have an audio tone on the PDC, just the functional visual screen. When I read about changing the PDC volume control, it references vehicles with single drives having a PDC volume setting. I'm assuming I have multiple drives because I don't have that PDC volume adjustment in the location the manual identifies.
Anyone know is this is all related?
The only thing I can think of is to try to do a reset. On page 185 of the 2013 manual (downloaded) it says to select; Settings, Tone, then Reset. I'm gonna go look at my truck if this is actually there.
The above only reset my bass, treble, EQ, etc settings on mine.
I uncovered a touch more inforomation last evening. This audio issue seems to have started when the 'address book delete' function was executed in idrive.
So for anyone who's interested it seems as though my amplifier has died. At least, The diagnostics at the BMW dealership has concluded such. If you find similar symptoms, you might be unfortunately in the same situation.
I will change out the amplifier and then update this post in case anyone else ever experiences a similar problem and is looking for answers.
Actually, short update. This was miss-diagnosed and turned out to be a failure in the central communication computer.
The part number is very hard to make out in this invoice (its not listed in the space its supposed to be). my best guess from the text is part number 65-83-9-165-855 AT CCC:658319
Hope that helps. Bottom line, some audio output issues are not caused by the amplifier, but rather the CCC module.

6 Things You Didn't Know About The Pioneer Womanby FN Dish Editor in Food Network Chef, January 26th, 2016
You've toured her Oklahoma ranch, explored her her town and even had breakfast with her family. But how well do you know The Pioneer Woman when it comes to her kitchen favorites and go-to meals? Recently FN Dish caught up with Ree as she launched her new line of serveware, and she dished on some of her culinary picks, plus what she's listening to — and watching — while she cooks. Read on below for the answers, as well as a bonus rapid-fire session with all of Ree Drummond's favorite flavors.
What dish or ingredient will we never catch you eating?
Ree Drummond: Anything remotely related to bananas. Banana splits, banana cream pie, banana bread … I want nothing to do with them. BLECH.
What's your favorite midnight snack?
RD: I'm never awake at midnight! I'm a morning person.
It's a regular Tuesday night. What are you having for dinner?
RD: If it's wintertime, roasted chicken legs and broccoli cheese soup. If it's summertime, roasted chicken legs, refrigerator rolls and cool, colorful salad … and it's too hot to eat dessert, so we all have fruit.
What's your ultimate guilty-pleasure food?
RD: Mmmmm. So many things! Any coffee-flavored dessert is a weakness of mine. Tiramisu, coffee ice cream, coffee-toffee pie … I'll take it all.
What's the most-surprising thing we'd find in your fridge?
RD: Six or seven different jars of fiery hot peppers. I need them, in a psychological sense.
What music do you like to listen to in the kitchen?
RD: I watch movies like The Godfather and Napoleon Dynamite.
Rapid fire — think fast!
Ketchup, mustard or mayonnaise? Mayo — always!
Chocolate or vanilla? Is that a serious question? Chocolate!
Coffee or tea? COFFEE, IN ALL CAPS.
Bagels or doughnuts? I don't have to answer that.
Waffles or pancakes? Both!
Burger or hot dog? Burger, baby.
Cream cheese or butter? Sorry, cream cheese, but butter is the king.
Cake or pie? That's like asking me to choose one of my children. I can't do it!
Beer or wine? Wine, wine, wine!
