|Vol. III, No. 4, Spring 1990
When I opened the Winter 1990 issue, the name of my grandmother, Phebe Sue Dunlap Crumpler (1870-1947) jumped off the page in the letter from Sammie Rose of Harrison. Yes, Grandma was famous for her vinegar pie.
My own favorites were her one-serving "fried pies" made of dried fruit--peaches, apples, apricots, or raisins. It was a choice I shared with my father, Hugh Densmore Crumpler (1894-1969) of Rolla, Missouri, and my uncle, Gus Hunt Crumpler (1911-1989) of Harrison, Arkansas. As long as Grandma was alive, we never set out for a fishing trip on Bear Creek or White River without a supply of her fried pies. I regret that I do not have the recipe.The article by Robert Flanders on "Old Fashioned Country Cooking" was so memorable as to send me out looking (unsuccessfully) in nearby markets for a slice of ham that would make redeye gravy. One thing I would like to add: My mother, Addye Alexander Crumpler (1896-1985) of Rolla always grated the yolk of a hardboiled egg on top of wilted lettuce.

Having grown up in Westphalia, I found the perspective on the German communities [OzarksWatch, Summer, 1989] very interesting and enlightening. The publication was well done! My ancestors on both my father's (Luebbert of Westphalia) and my mother's (Kliethermes of Loose Creek) side were German immigrants in the early 1800s.

I was interested in your article about Humansville, Missouri in the 1940s (OzarksWatch, Fall,1989) because my family moved near here in the early '40s, and I remember the Saturday drawings and the stores mentioned. Before that we lived 10 miles from Norwood, Missouri.

Seeing my dear friends Peg and Dick Shaw, pictured in the Fall, 1989 OzarksWatch, brought back many good memories of the Shaws, the Eleven Point Ranch, and Thomasville.
Early in the 1950s my parents became acquainted with the Shaws, the acquaintance developed into close friendship, and my brother and I became the beneficiaries of many wonderful visits to the ranch.
It seemed to take forever to drive from Springfield to Thomasville in those days, and the land had a remoteness and wildness that was completely foreign to us. But also remarkable was the beauty and peace of the woods, and one of my first memories is of the wind blowing through the pines lulling me to sleep at night.
The three Shaw children, my brother, and I were stairsteps, each a year apart in age, and we hit it off immediately. There was always plenty to do and see on the ranch including lots of firsts for us. There was swimming in the Eleven Point River, numerous dogs and horses always available to play with and ride, picnics at Greer Spring (complete with seed ticks), seeing milk pasteurized at home, dehorning cows, loading hay, the rope swing in the hay barn--and the wildlife! Hummingbirds, purple martins, owls, wild turkeys, golden eagles, and wild hogs were abundant and commonplace in Oregon County in the 1950s.
One special adventure comes to mind of the summer when I was about eight years old. My mother and father put me on the train in Springfield to travel to West Plains where Mrs. Shaw would pick me up and take me to the ranch for an extra- long visit by myself. I was worried that I might miss my destination, but once there, the time passed too quickly. That summer Mr. Shaw gave me a Hereford calf to care for which made me feel like a real part of life on the ranch.
But, of course, it was Peg and Dick Shaw who were the focal point of our visits to the ranch. Kind, practical, funny and loving, they were like second parents to my brother and me. And their children, Dusty, Billy, and Judy, are still best friends today.
It is only now as an adult that I realize how incredibly lucky we were to know the Shaw family. Mr. Shaw died on January 12, 1990, and as I stood by his graveside I thanked God for the times we spent at the Eleven Point Ranch in rugged Oregon County, Missouri.

My husband brought home a copy of OzarksWatch from a Rotary luncheon. His comment was that I would enjoy reading it. He was so right! In fact, I rose from bed at 7:30 on a SATURDAY and rushed to our computer and wrote the article I am enclosing. Even if you cannot publish it, thanks for the inspiration which caused me to reminisce about my childhood.

Your publication serves a real need, and I want to compliment you on the contents--especially the recent issue on the German influence in the northern Ozarks area. Great work!
I'm familiar, in a way, with the work that publishing a monthly magazine really is--and I know you do a lot of other things too. You're doing a great job, and the copies of OzarksWatch will be valuable for many years to come. I'm engaged in teaching my seven-year-old grandson about area history, and recently I chose to read to him from your publication in addition to some of Springfield historian Jonathan Fairbanks' works--and he was most interested! That's a real test because he is so often bored. But not last Saturday!

Two years ago, on our visit to relatives in the Rhineland area, just West of Dusseldorf, we were guests in the home of Mr. Wilhelm Toups. Two years prior to that he had researched and published as a feature article in the "Almanach fur den Kreis Neuss," several hundred family immigration records. He was unaware at the time that many of them were the people who settled in Loose Creek and Osage County.
When I used the old German dialect, handed down by our parents, their attitude was one of disbelief. Six weeks after our return, Mr. Robert Rameil, chairman of the Meerbusch Historical program, came to Loose Creek and neighboring towns to do a feature on the existing German culture in this area.

Thanks for the Ruben updates, Oldschool.
Thanks for the Ruben updates, Oldschool.
I saw Ruben the other night on Jimmy Kimmel Live. He sounded great and looked amazing. 100 pounds down and now a vegitarian. Wonder what woman coaxed him into that. We all know Ruben liked his meat before. lol
Anyway, I like the new single. It's a lot better than anything on his Soulful cd. I still wish he'd stay away from the fast stuff. It doesn't fit him well. This was pointed out by the reviewer at USA Today as well. He should stick with songs like the new single and Sorry. Then, he'd give Luther (God rest his soul) and Brian McKnight a run for their money.

Ruben's new CD "The Return" debuts at #8 on Billboard's 200, #2 on the R&B chart. "Change Me" moves from #5 to #2 on the Urban AC chart, from #28 to #23 on the Urban chart, and makes its debut on the Hot 100 singles at #88.
Sing & dance the night away!
"The Return" was #35*on last week's Billboard Chart and is*#54*this week (11-18-06), having sold 111,491 copies so far. His single "Change Me" continues to rise on the airplay charts. DK if there is a video out or in the works.

Studdard Host of State Weight-Loss Plan
Published: 12/19/06, 5:06 PM EDT
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) - The scales of "American Idol" may have tipped in Ruben Studdard's favor in 2003, but there are other scales he would like to tip a bit less.
After shedding almost 100 pounds, the Birmingham native and "American Idol" winner says he wants to help other residents of Alabama to lose weight.
He's asking the 25 percent of the state's residents who are obese to lose 10 pounds in eight weeks - a total of 10 million pounds.
Since committing to a weight-loss program this summer, Studdard has lost nearly 100 pounds, started eating healthier and begun exercising, according to a news release announcing the program.
"I'm not where I want to be, but I'm on the right track, and I'm excited about encouraging other Alabamians to begin their own weight-loss journeys," said the 28-year-old singer, whose third album, "The Return," was released in October by J Records.
Studdard told The Associated Press in a recent interview that he wanted to get in shape "because I have a family history of diabetes and high blood pressure and things of that nature."
"I felt like it was necessary for me to combat those issues at a young age before it became a bigger issue. I went to this place called Duke Diet & Fitness Center for a month and learned how to change my eating habits."
Scale Back Alabama, an eight-week weight-loss campaign, kicks off Jan. 4 with an event featuring Studdard. The campaign is being jointly sponsored by Alabama's hospitals, the Alabama Department of Public Health and Barber Diaries.
Reality is the beginning...not the end....Wallace Stevens
I love Ruben! I am SOOOOO happy to see him taking care of himself. He seems like such a nice guy.
I'm not a Jordin fan. She's only sparked an interest once or twice the entire season. However, I loved her duet with Reuben. IT would be great if the two of them could do something together.

Show synopsis A lawyer discovers just how fine the line between good and evil can be in this drama based on the novel Tainted Evidence by Robert Daley. When a carefully-planned bust of drug dealer Jordan Washington (Shiek Mahmud-Bey) goes sour, a shootout between Washington and officers from three precincts leaves a number of cops dead or wounded. Washington escapes in the confusion, but he turns himself in on the advice of gadfly lawyer Sam Vigoda (Richard Dreyfuss). District Attorney Morgenstern (Ron Leibman) appoints Sean Casey (Andy Garcia), a former cop new to trial law, to prosecute the case, less for his legal expertise than because Sean's father, Liam (Ian Holm), was one of the injured officers, guaranteeing good press. Despite Vigoda's allegations of widespread police corruption, Sean scores an easy victory in the case; Washington is behind bars, and the young lawyer's career is on the rise; however, the discovery of a dead body confirms suspicions that Vigoda's allegations have a basis in fact, and Sean learns that his father may be in on a police cover-up. Night Falls on Manhattan also features Lena Olin as Sean's girlfriend and James Gandolfini as Liam's partner. Mark Deming, Rovi

Makayla Darden, 8, seriously injured in Congress Heights shooting
(WJLA) - A young girl named Makayla Darden was shot in Southeast Washington on Friday afternoon. Now, police and the family of eight-year-old Makayla are desperately seeking answers.
"All I know is I want God to protect my baby and get my baby -- let her be okay," sobbed the victim's grandmother, Beverly Darden.
Investigators say that shortly after 3 p.m. on Friday afternoon, officers responded to a report of gunfire at the Wheeler Terrace apartments in D.C. 's Congress Heights neighborhood.
"There were kids outside at the time of the sounds of gunshots," said D.C. Police Assistant Chief Alfred Durham.
Family members say Makayla was walking home from an aunt's house through a courtyard when she was suddenly shot in the shoulder.
"The guys were out here shooting at someone, and the bullet just so happened to hit her -- they ran," said Beverly Darden.
Police are now hoping surveillance video will catch the shooter, but they suspect several people may have been involved.
"The security guard observed a group fleeing from the scene; again, we don't know who the shooter was, what kind of weapon was used..." said Asst. Chief Durham.
But residents here are visibly angry.
"Anybody's a target out here," said neighbor Lakisha Washington.
Neighbors say a metal fence was installed years ago to prevent gun violence on the property, but somehow, troublemakers are apparently able to slip by the single security guard on duty.
"This has made a little progress, but not enough progress for us to be safe in our own homes," said Lakisha.
Meanwhile, there are prayers for the little girl, and her family hopes to eventually see that surveillance video.
"I see who it is on the video, and I know you, I'm telling [them] who you are. That's my grandbaby," said Beverly Darden.
Police say the girl was transported in life-threatening condition. According to her grandmother, she was breathing on her own and was taken into surgery at Children's National Medical Center.{ }

Jason Collins Becomes First Openly Gay Professional Male Athlete
NBA center Jason Collins has become the first male U.S. athlete in a major professional sport to come out as gay. The 34-year-old, a free agent who has played with the Washington Wizards and the Boston Celtics this past season, tells Sports Illustrated:
"I didn't set out to be the first openly gay athlete playing in a major American team sport. But since I am, I'm happy to start the conversation. I wish I wasn't the kid in the classroom raising his hand and saying, 'I'm different.' If I had my way, someone else would have already done this. Nobody has, which is why I'm raising my hand."
Collins continues, "When I was younger I dated women. I even got engaged. I thought I had to live a certain way. I thought I needed to marry a woman and raise kids with her. I kept telling myself the sky was red, but I always knew it was blue."
As to why he opted to address his sexuality now, Collins says that he was partly inspired by the Boston Marathon bombings, adding that "it takes an enormous amount of energy to guard such a big secret."
"I've endured years of misery and gone to enormous lengths to live a lie. I was certain that my world would fall apart if anyone knew," he writes. "And yet when I acknowledged my sexuality I felt whole for the first time. I still had the same sense of humor, I still had the same mannerisms and my friends still had my back."
NBA commissioner David Stern applauded Collins in a statement cited by ESPN, noting, "Jason has been a widely respected player and teammate throughout his career and we are proud he has assumed the leadership mantle on this very important issue." Washington Wizards President Ernie Grunfeld felt similarly, calling Collins "a leader on and off the court and an outstanding teammate throughout his NBA career" in a statement.
GLAAD's Aaron McQuade echoed those sentiments, calling Collins a "new hero" for young lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) athletes in an email statement. "'Courage' and 'inspiration' are words that get thrown around a lot in sports, but Jason Collins has given both ideas a brand new context," McQuade said. "We hope that his future team will welcome him, and that fans of the NBA and sports in general will applaud him."
The issue of gay players in professional sports has been a matter of heated debate in recent months, after San Francisco 49ers player Chris Culliver told Artie Lange that he would not welcome gay players in the NFL or on his team.

SAFS professor Julian Olden is featured in UW Today:
'Scientists predict that as Earth warms and climate patterns morph in response, animals will be forced to move to survive. That usually means hightailing it to higher latitudes as equatorial areas become too hot and dry.
This movement pattern has happened fluidly and naturally in the past as climates have shifted, but now with human developments such as cities, highways and agriculture, critical animal migrations will be limited in surprising and troubling ways.

MIAMI, June 17 (UPI) -- Ian Kinsler had three RBI Thursday, two of them coming on a fifth-inning double that put Texas in front and propelled the Rangers to a 6-4 win over Florida.
Texas overcame a three-run deficit and extended its winning streak to five games with the completion of a sweep of the Marlins.
Vladimir Guerrero's homer reduced the Texas deficit to 3-1 in the fourth and the Rangers took the lead with a three-run fifth.
Julio Borbon led off the inning with a walk and relief pitcher Alexi Ogando, after missing a sacrifice bunt, singled for his first major-league hit. Elvis Andrus then put down a bunt and Florida starter Ricky Nolasco threw the ball away at first -- allowing Borbon to score.
One out later, Kinsler doubled to drive in Ogando and Andrus. Kinsler also had a sacrifice fly during a two-run seventh.
Ogando, who had never appeared in the majors until this series, picked up his second victory in three nights. He threw 2 1/3 scoreless innings after relieving starter Dustin Nippert in the fourth. Neftali Feliz worked a perfect ninth and recorded his 18th save.
Feliz earned a save in all three games of the Florida series.
Nolasco (5-6) allowed four runs, two of them earned, on seven hits over six innings. Florida lost for the fourth time in five games.

Single-Use Transfer Lines in Biopharmaceutical Applications
By John Boehm, Bioprocess Business Unit Manager
& Brent Bushnell, Bioprocess Sales Manager
Colder Products Company
Biopharmaceutical manufacturers face increased pressure to commercialize new drugs faster and at a lower cost. As a result, production demand is outpacing available manufacturing capacity. To meet existing and future demand and maintain a competitive advantage, many manufacturers are striving to develop increased efficiencies within their manufacturing processes. This is where single-use systems - particularly single-use transfer lines - can deliver significant value, including added flexibility, improved production yields and increased cost savings.
Single-use systems, consisting of bags, tubing, connectors and filters, first gained acceptance in bioprocessing facilities for sterile cell culture media and process buffer storage applications. Following this, single-use bioreactors were developed and have quickly moved from research and development labs into pilot plants and production facilities as integral systems for production and seed-train scale-up. More recently, many downstream process engineers have overcome their initial reluctance to incorporate single-use systems and have added single-use as integral components of downstream purification and formulation steps.
The trend today is toward transfer lines or tube sets that use single-use connectors and filters to achieve sterile media transfer between process equipment or between production suites. A key benefit of single-use transfer lines is their ability to help boost productivity and accelerate time to market by reducing the downtime associated with cleaning and validation. This, in turn, helps reduce operational expenses by minimizing labor, chemical, water and energy demands. Additional cost savings stem from reduced validation efforts, greater speed to market, and more flexible manufacturing facilities.
Fixed tubing and re-usable valves require cleaning and cleaning process validation between production batches to maintain desired sterility. Single-use components on the other hand, are provided pre-cleaned and pre-sterilized, effectively "outsourcing" the cleaning and sterilization activities required in a traditional operation. This not only reduces labor time and expense, it also improves the speed and safety of drug development and delivery. Pre-sterilized, single-use assemblies reduce cross-contamination risks that may lead to product loss or reduced production yields.
This benefit is further magnified for companies that conduct multi-product manufacturing within single facilities. Unlike hard piping, the flexible tubing incorporated in single-use transfer lines allows manufacturers to quickly change process steps or convert over to a new product. This is a key advantage for multiple-product facilities in which process requirements change depending on the drug being produced.
Real-World Results
One application for single-use transfer lines is in the aseptic transfer of inoculum through a seed train of stainless steel bioreactors (see Diagram 1). A traditional facility will feature one or more series of bioreactors that increase sequentially in capacity and are connected by CIP/SIP piping. Replacing the fixed piping with single-use transfer lines eliminates the need for CIP validation and reduces maintenance and capital expense by eliminating expensive valve and sanitary piping assemblies. Transfer lines can also increase process flexibility. Using an SIP connector like the Steam-Thru® Connection allows operators to independently steam-on both ends of the transfer lines when sterilizing each bioreactor. Transitioning the SIP valve into the flow/open position allows aseptic transfer of inoculum using either head-space pressure from the seed bioreactor or a peristaltic pump. Additionally, since the connections between seed bioreactors can be easily changed, maintenance of one bioreactor in a train series would not prevent use of the other bioreactors.
Lasting ImplicationsAs more manufacturers take advantage of single-use systems, their integration with traditional stainless equipment will continue to increase. All biopharmaceutical manufacturers can benefit, but biotech start-ups gain both the operational advantages of incorporating single-use systems while also saving time and expense in the design, build and validation of new facilities. Existing production facilities are being retrofitted with single-use transfer lines to increase capacity and improve production yields with minimal expenses.
Bottom line: the benefits of single-use transfer lines aren't limited to upstream or downstream processes, large or small operations, or new or retrofit facilities. Whether it's connecting within a process or across different processes, this is a technology with bottom line advantages throughout the manufacturing operation.

STORMS have swept through Victoria, bringing down trees and causing damage to homes.
The Bureau of Meteorology issued a severe thunderstorm alert on Saturday, warning that damaging winds, heavy rainfall and large hailstones were likely to affect parts of the state.
The State Emergency Service said so far 80 calls for assistance had been received, mainly from greater metropolitan Melbourne, and coastal areas such as Chelsea and Frankston.
Residents in state's northeast and northwest have also contacted emergency services.
Many of the calls relate to fallen trees and roof tiles coming away from residential properties, causing minor leaks and flood damage to homes, the SES said.
Bureau of Meteorology duty forecaster Stephen King said Saturday evening's storm activity would extend up from the metropolitan area up through central Victoria towards Bendigo and Echuca.
The bureau's severe thunderstorm warning currently applies to Northern Country, North Central, North East, West and South Gippsland and parts of the Central and East Gippsland.
An earlier severe thunderstorm warning for Melbourne has now been cancelled as the immediate threat has passed.

2015 Mustang Cobra Jet Confirmed
Contrary to rumors, Ford will not be shifting the drag racing special to the Ford Fusion or Taurus for the 2015 model year as first speculated by Hot Rod magazine.
Mustangs Daily spoke to Ford Racing head Jamie Allison who told the new source, the "Mustang and Cobra Jet are inseparable."
The earlier Hot Rod report suggested that another Ford exec seemed to be trying to dodge answering whether the Cobra Jet program would continue with the next gen Mustang, which has fueled rumors that the Fusion or Taurus might be in-line to take its place.
Who knows – maybe Ford was actually considering it at some point and only recently decided it was a bad idea after some of the negative comments started pouring in. Either way, we're just glad the company has decided to keep the program attached to the Mustang moving forward.
Even better, it appears that you can already put in an order for a 2015 Mustang Cobra Jet. Back in July, Kershaw reportedly told Mustangs Daily that Ford Racing accepts placeholder orders for future Cobra Jets under the part number M-FR500-CJ.

Newsmaker: Mike Lukajic '04
Former Laker Mike Lukajic '04 made d3hockey.com's list of top 15 goal scorers of the last decade. Lukajic's 33 goals in 2002-03 for the Oswego men's ice hockey team placed him at No. 9.
Lukajic was the sole SUNY Athletic Conference representative on the list, which ranked NCAA Division III players' best individual seasons. In addition to a one-goal-per-game average in the 2002-03 regular season, he also scored at least one goal in each of Oswego's postseason victories that year en route to the Division III national championship game.

The views of these parks are breathtaking, but not everybody will get a chance to see these parks in real life. This is a great way of viewing the gorgeous parks without having to hop on a plane or drive for miles in a car.

Navigating the Health Care System
Advice Columns from Dr. Carolyn ClancyFormer AHRQ Director Carolyn Clancy, M.D., prepared brief, easy-to-understand advice columns for consumers to help navigate the health care system. They address important issues such as how to recognize high-quality health care, how to be an informed health care consumer, and how to choose a hospital, doctor, and health plan.
Focus on ObesityBy Carolyn M. Clancy, M.D.
Obesity is literally a growing problem.
Today, 72 million Americans are obese. As you probably know, obese people are more likely to suffer from diabetes, heart disease and other chronic health problems. But did you also know obesity can be bad for your budget?
It can. On average, obese people spend $732 more each year on medical expenses than those with normal weight, according to a 2009 study sponsored by my agency, the U.S. Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ). The study also found that obese workers are paid less than other workers.
The terms "overweight" and "obese" refer to a person's overall body weight. People who are overweight carry the extra weight in muscle, bone, fat, and/or water. People who are obese have a high amount of extra body fat.
Obesity has become an epidemic, hurting people's health and costing as much as $147 billion each year in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In 2009, nine States—Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, Tennessee and West Virginia—counted nearly one of three residents as obese, according to the CDC. This is a serious development. In 2000, no State had such a high rate. In contrast, Colorado and Washington, D.C., have the lowest rates with fewer than one in five residents classified as obese.
Americans need more information.
A recent shows that many patients don't receive information from their clinicians about the risks of obesity or how to control or lose weight. This is true even for patients who already are overweight or obese:
- Only one in four overweight children and teens was told by a doctor or health professional that they were overweight between the years 2003 and 2006.
- During the same period, only 65 percent of overweight adults were told by a health professional that their weight was unhealthy—fewer than three years earlier.
- Only about one-third of uninsured adults received that advice in 2004.
- Obese people who are black, Hispanic, or do not have a high school diploma are less likely to receive advice about good food choices from their doctors. Only about one in four blacks and Hispanics received advice about eating lower-fat or low-cholesterol foods, for example.
As a nation, we're taking steps to get healthier. First Lady Michelle Obama is raising awareness of childhood obesity through her campaign Let's Move. Earlier this year, the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommended that clinicians screen children aged 6 years and older for obesity and offer or refer them to intensive weight loss programs.
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, which was signed into law last March, comes with important new benefits. This Act will help more children get health coverage, end lifetime and most annual limits on care, and give patients access to free, recommended preventive services.
The act now requires private insurance plans to provide obesity screening for all adults and children at no cost. Height, weight and body-mass index (BMI) measurements for children also are covered as a preventive service. BMI is a number calculated from a person's weight and height, providing an indicator of body fat for many people.
Beginning in January 2011, patients covered by Medicare and patients enrolled in new health plans created by the law will receive more preventive services. This includes counseling from your health care provider on losing weight and eating healthfully.
Here are some steps you can take:
- Watch your weight. The CDC and healthfinder.gov provide basic tips to help.
- Know your BMI. The body mass index or BMI is the most common measure of overweight and obesity. BMI is based on height and weight and is used for adults, children, and teens. Calculate your BMI. For adults, a BMI of 30 or above means you are obese.
- Talk to your doctor or nurse. Even if your doctor doesn't talk about your weight, you can. Ask your doctor questions about how losing weight may help you. Also, ask about local programs and resources that can help you.
Just think: The steps you take to help your health will also help your wallet.
I'm Dr. Carolyn Clancy, and that's my advice on how to navigate the health care system.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — The Florida Highway Patrol says a 59-year-old man has died after being run over by a public transportation bus.
The agency says Joseph Michael Lukowski got out of the bus as it was pulling away from a bus stop in St. Petersburg on Monday. He was run over by the right rear tire.
Authorities say Lukowski was taken to a hospital where he later died.
The FHP was continuing an investigation on Tuesday. No further details were immediately available.

FORT HOOD — Heather Ketchmark, an Army spouse, was so honored to meet former Defense Secretary Robert Gates on Thursday that she presented him with a memorial coin dedicated to her fallen brother.
Her brother, Air Force Staff Sgt. Timothy Bowles, was killed March 2009 in Afghanistan and was the last service member to come home under the military's former policy of banning photos of flag-drapped coffins, Ketchmark said.
When Ketchmark was flipping through Gates' new book, "Duty," earlier this month, a photo caught her attention. She flipped the page, and saw her brother's name.
"It was very humbling," she said.
Ketchmark, along with her husband, Sgt. 1st Class Daniel Ketchmark, were the first in line Thursday as Gates signed copies of his controversial new book at the Clear Creek Main Exchange.
Nearly 70 soldiers, veterans and others were waiting in line when the two-hour book signing started at 11 a.m.
"My dad served 30 years in the Army; he texted me about the book signing," said George McMaster, 22, a Copperas Cove resident.
McMaster and others went through the line swiftly as Gates signed copies of his book, which has drawn national headlines for his sharp criticisms of Congress and the Obama administration's strategy in Afghanistan.
The book is a memoir of his service as the defense secretary from 2006 to 2011.
In a phone interview with the Herald on Wednesday, Gates said he hopes soldiers will read the book.
The book describes "what was going on … at the 30,000-foot level in terms of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan," Gates said. "And what was behind the decisions that I made that affected their lives."
Gates said he "very strongly" supports keeping a force of 10,000 U.S. troops in Afghanistan as a reactionary force after this year. "I think it sends an important message to the Afghans that they are not going to be abandoned again."
Before Thursday's book signing, the last time Gates visited Fort Hood was as defense secretary. He also was in that role on Nov. 5, 2009, when 13 soldiers were killed in a mass shooting.
Gates said he wanted to attend the hometown funerals of all those who died in the Fort Hood shooting, but he "didn't want to be a disruptive element and interfere with the families mourning."
He did go to the funeral of Spc. Frederick Greene in Tennessee. Greene, considered a hero for his attempt to charge the shooter, was shot 12 times in the attack.
"It was the only funeral of a soldier I was able to attend, other than Arlington," Gates said.
Plenty of veterans lined up Thursday to have Gates sign a copy of the book. Vietnam veteran Milton Caudle, 70, drove from Cedar Park for the event.
He heard about the signing a couple of weeks ago when bought a copy of "Duty."
"I like reading anything about history or people of importance," he said.

Letter: No clemency from the president
I found the item in the paper Nov. 23 about President George Bush pardoning the turkey ironical, to say the least. In his reign as governor of Texas, he signed the execution orders of 152 prisoners, giving clemency to none. Even the case of Karla Fay Tucker, who turned her life around and became a real Christian witness in prison, didn't move his heart.
Petitioners for clemency or commutation to life sentence included the Pope, Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell and one of his daughters. The Washington Post wrote how Texas death penalty defendants receive lawyers who are inexperienced, incompetent, and indifferent to the point of sleeping at trials.
No matter, Bush said, "I'm absolutely confident that every person executed was guilty of the crime charged, and had full access to our courts."
I know I shouldn't be bringing this up, as he has so many burdens on his conscience right now, but as a Christian, this is one thing that really bothers me.
It makes me wonder how much he cares for the deaths in Iraq.

If you somehow missed the story, Scott Thompson was ousted by Yahoo after the company found that Thompson had lied about his credentials. His résumé claimed that he'd earned a computer science degree, though that degree wasn't offered by his college until after he'd graduated.
In the wake of the scandal, many people debated over how big of an offense it really was.
Was a résumé fib a big deal or a little one?
As one Forbes writer asked, doesn't it matter more that he's a good leader doing a good job? This, the writer asserted, is a little one-time lie, not a major ethical breach.
Others, such as leadership blogger Wally Bock, insist that a CEO should be held to the highest standards. Fudging on a résumé is hardly an unintentional act.
"He's done it before. And he'll do it again," says Bock. "I'm real sure that investors and regulatory bodies do not want to guess when Thompson is lying about something substantive. Neither do strategic partners."
According to PR consultant Chris Salt, silence is not the solution when you're in the throes of managing your reputation. Offense is the best defense.
He points to an example from 1995, when actor Hugh Grant had been caught in a "moment of madness" with a prostitute.
Instead of hiding from the limelight, he went on national television to make a public apology. That was step one in restoring his reputation.
In most cases, a leader can't afford to stay in the shadows when reputation is at stake.
— Adapted from "The CEO as Liar," Wally Bock, Wally Bock's Three Star Leadership Blog.

Leveling in Neverwinter is relatively quick and easy. You will mostly be following the glowing sparks that show you the next quest objective so you don't waste much time figuring out where to go.
Before we start with the actual Neverwinter Leveling Guide we will go over some general leveling tips.
Gear and Items:
- Bagspace: If you can get some bags, this will help you out a lot. The more room you have in your inventory the better.
- Put Azure Enchantments in every utility slot you have for bonus XP gain. Get atleast rank 5, these only cost around 200AD and boost your XP gain by 7.5% each.
- Remember to get your mount when you can. Mounts increase runspeed which helps with leveling speed. You can also now get Inginia's of Prosperity from the Auction House that you can equip to your mount that give bonus XP.
- Inscribed Garments can be purchased from the Zen Market and will give you 20% extra XP.
- Ensorcelled Items can be bought on the AH. This is powerful equipment that scales with your level and can be used at any level!
- Companions are a really important aspect of Neverwinter. Companions come in different types like Healers, DPS and Tanks. Get one that complements your class and playstyle and they will really help you out.
- You can give your Companions high level gear that will make them a lot more powerful.
XP Bonuses and Extra XP Gain:
- Invoke to the gods (after level 11). Pressing CTRL + I next to an Altar (found in Neverwinter or as drops from mobs) will have your character pray. You will get stat boost, potions etc, and you will get XP. Quite a lot of XP acutally, so pray as often as you can.
- Experience Booster and Epic Experience Booster from the Zen Market. If you have Zen or is willing to buy Zen i would recommend that you buy an Epic Experience Booster. You will get 2x XP all the way up to level 70 and will level twice as fast.
- Double XP events do happen from time to time and it can be wise to leave leveling alts to these periods. Check the calendar ingame to see when the next XP weekend is!
- Being a VIP member will give you 10% extra XP.
- Most guilds have the Experience Bonus Boon available, so join a guild to get a 3-30% XP bonus.
Alternative to Questing
If you have a guild and don't want to level by doing quests, you can alternately do HE's in your guilds Stronghold. This is a very fast way of leveling, especially with XP boosters and double XP events.
Generally leveling in Neverwinter is pretty easy. You progress automatically to the next zone and when you finish a zone you always get a quest that takes you to the next one. At level 60 it become a lot harder to progress though, and leveling will slow down a lot. Personally i always level my alts with an Experience Booster during a double XP weekend, doing it this way i can level to 60 within a day. Check out our Level 70 gearing guide if you've hit level 70 and is wondering what to do next!
Neverwinter Leveling 61 – 70
I put the 61 – 70 leveling before 1-60 as the 1 – 60 information is a bit outdated, it will be updated in the future. And i thought most players won't have a problem with these levels anyway.
Leveling in Neverwinter after level 60 can be slow, especially without Boosters. The only viable way to level somewhat quickly is the Vigilance quests from Module 6 : Elemental Evil. You will want to do these quests anyway to get your artifact weapon at the end. The four zones with vigilance quests are as follows :
Drowned Shore
Reclamation Rock
Fiery Pit
Spinward Rise.
Start in the drowned shore and work your way through the zones. I skipped most of Fiery Pit and went straight to Spinward Rise. You don't need to complete all the vigilance quests in the 3 first zones but it is important to complete the quest Final Vigilance in Spinward Rise in order to get your artifact weapon.
The way vigilance quests work is that when you arrive in the Drowned shore you will start the main vigilance quest line. Every zone has 3 different quest hubs. You will have to complete 8 repeatable quests to complete the Vigilance quest and move on to the next area. These repeatable quests can be continued even after you progress to a new quest and area if you want to. Especially in the last zone, Spinward Rise, will you notice that some of the quests are a lot harder than others and some of them should be stayed away from completely if you are soloing, while other quests only take a few minutes and don't even involve killing mobs, but will award the same amount of XP as the crazy difficult ones will. So pick your quests carefully. As the quests also have timers on them before you can repeat them, sometimes just waiting is the best option. If you find yourself waiting, doing the daily repeatable quests from Archdruid Morningdawn in Protectors Enclave is a good option as these quests also award decent XP and are easy to complete.
Below i will list all the repeatable quests involved in the Vigilance quests and what quests are the best and quickest for leveling. If you have a group or the zone is very populated with other players you can try to do the quests involving Heroic Encounters as well .After a while you will also see what quest compliment each other. A lot of the quest will involve killing the same mobs or mobs in the same areas. There are also one quest in each zone that will have you kill 100 mobs and some other stuff in each zone, always have this quest.

Ring of Fire
Spinward Rise :
This is the final zone, where you will ding 70 eventually. This is the only zone where you absolutely should finish all the vigilance quests to get your artifact weapon.
An important note here is that quite a few of the quests involve killing cultists, these quests can be done on ANY of the islands and should often be done at the first one since there are more and easier cultists there. Try to get different quests involving cultists at the same time. Also always get the Tome of air line of quests from Harper Evandriel, these quests are super quick and easy to complete and give good XP. Unlock all the islands as fast as you can by completing the quests on each one. Leveling is faster when you have all of them open and can choose from all the quests.
First Island :
Do :
Tome of Air
Learning to Fly
Birds of a Feather
Shiny Metal
Target – Blackfeather
Target – North Wind
Lesser Air Runes
Avoid :
Air Cult Assault
Elemental Assault
Air Supply
Twin Breezes
Fight the Wind
Flightless Fury
Second Island :
Do :
Greater Tome of Air
Clearing the Air
Order out of Chaos
Target – Windshear
Unbound Anger
Archon Anarchy
Greater Wind Runes
Avoid :
Air Cult Assault
Elemental Assault
Slaad Summoner
Fiends of Limbo
Feeding the Slaadi
Target – Glark the Rancid
Third Island :
Do :
Grand Tome of Air
Eyes in the Sky
War Chests
Whispers on the Wind
Archon Anarchy
Target – Rastari
Target – Grackel
Avoid :
Air Cult Assault
Elemental Assault
Tempest in a Bottle
The Cloud Forges
Lofty Ideas
Cloud Magic
Once you have completed the Artifact Weapon quest and opened all the islands you still propably won't be level 70. So you will need to repeat the quests. Nothing else in the game really gives any decent amount of XP. I usually grab the Tome of Air quests when i can, as well as trying to gather as many that involve killing cultists at the same time as i can, or the three Kenku quests from Skreel. Good luck and grats at level 70!

Generally you won't need this guide to tell you where to go as new zones will open up as you level and you can quickly see on the map which zone you should progress to. If you have a lot of XP bonuses, quite a few zones can be skipped.

When it comes to Copenhagen Fashion Week, the Henrik Vibskov Runway Presentation is one not to miss and a must on the schedule. Last night we attended the presentation of the designer's Fall/Winter 2011 Collection. As usual it has little to do with just a few models running down the catwalk, but you attend an entire concept show. Similar to the Thom Browne show in Paris, yet completely different, the designer set up a long dinner table. Models where walking around the table to present the collection, while servants were preparing the dinner setup at the same time. All the way at the end of the show, the models would come with plates and sat down, using hair dryers to unfreeze their frozen food on the plates.
The new collection once again presented a plethora of beautiful knit patterns and pieces. For men the jackets stood out, mixing quilted and polka dot patterns into the garments.

Take a look at the full runway presentation after the jump.
