London - (Third Reich Mess): The Progressive Governance Summit hosted today by UK Prime Monster Gorgon Brown has been forced to remove its swastika-emblazoned logo.
The symbol had been plastered liberally all over the Downing Street website promoting the event as well as on the conference site at the Grove Hotel in Watford.
But the London design firm which created the PR symbol remains unrepentant.
"We knew it was a risk," Dave Goebbels of design firm Fascists-R-Us said today.
"But we couldn't just ignore the historical ties connecting the Grove Hotel with some of the Puppet Monarchy's strongest Third Reich bloodlines.
"But of a lark, really."
Brown is the second Labour PM to go full throttle with a swastika logo promoting an important event.
In 2007 Tony Blair's Olympic think tank famously launched the London 2012 logo which features...yes! His Grandpa's personal sigil, the swastika.
Angela Merkel is hopping mad.

I left my
heart in
a magical
place. A
place that
holds years
of wonder and
awe. A place that
knows me better
than any other place
I've been. This place
has changed me and
molded me into the
person I am now.
The forests, trees, creeks,
and open skies instilled in
me a love for God's works.
The harshness of the winters has
taught me to be patient and to endure. My small
town is where I learned the small-town work ethic;
you don't get what you don't earn and earning what
you want takes a little bit of sweat and tears. Here
I learned that you don't have to be blood to be
family. Brothers and sisters are made throughout
years of school together. We relied on each other to
be happy. This place will forever hold my heart and
soul. I am a small town girl through and through.
It's who I will always be. Forever. Thanks IDAHO
for shaping me into something more than I was.

To see her blog, adorned with pastel tones
Widens the gap that pervades my bones
For now we eat her passing meal of plain white rice
Leaving us all alone, without much needed fashion advice
The red light district has lost an inductee
For I would have love to be involved in her naked party
Yet for now we must all be content
With the debauched path she hath went.
Sadness invades a binary world
Where tweeters and bloggers hearts have curled
Bringing back memories of Madonna's 'Like A Virgin'
Her fashion advice precise like a mastoplexic surgeon
I remember the fervour when you were followed by Kath Kidston
A similar experience when I had my first Jar of Branston
Yet when you found out the intensity with which I was following you
You wanted to change species and become a Gnu
You learnt to accept my frequent outpourings of love
When you finally spoke to me, I felt as free as a pure white dove
But upon your departure I feel pathetic and hollowed
The best I can hope for is the number of one of the hot bloggers you followed
She was always my muse, my intimate inspiration
No-one can cause such an outpouring of personal perspiration
My heart now yearns to see her type a special tweet
One that would make Mr Sexton act like a dog on heat
Now the world mourns the passing of Lily Fulvio-Mason
I can still see her face reflected in my wash basin
With every heart beat, every full blooded pulse
My sadness streaked blood makes my body convulse
But now it's time to go, my heart says goodbye
The pain eats my nipples like the Syrphid Fly
I can finally see your body laid in an eternal rest
And now I can now finally uncover your breast.

What could I really know of the breaks
in the land
huge canyons bleeding red cut by the wind
with the snow swirling around our tires
barns upright
and fallen to a tumble like icebergs
windshield riming over with a crust of ice
we scrape madly inside
trying to keep cold out
speed slowing
slowing to a crawl
always on the lookout
outside line appearing and gone,
no worries about
cattle led inside to safety to be watered and fed
but what of us?
Will we be trapped clutching a candle
wanting a chocolate bar,
waiting for a tractor?
and all the flat seeming land seems to have ditches
and roof pitches and rushing trees, and a swirl
of slumbering snow
to lumber down in drifts and piles
no fire would ever warm us
temperature dropping
until finally we see it shining in the dark
a lantern at a farm
a fleet of snow mobiles to greet us
scurry is off
before our ears turn blue,
would they fall off?
Luckily, not tonight, not in this blizzard,
we have home.

He had some time to spare and pray.
He worked his farm for years, all his boys have now grown up,
then moved away.
He raised them good he raised them right.
He run cattle so they can earn college degrees and,
then start living their own lives. being free.
Now it's hard after his wife has died.
It broke his heart but he promised that he would,
keep their farm alive..
Now here he sits taking a break.
Asking god for a weather break.
all because, his cows needs winter hay.

It's a Wyoming winter--there's snowflakes and sleet coming down,
The cowboy is hiding away from the trouble in town.
Now, the gambler he cheated the cowboy of wages,
With cards that he chose to conceal,
So the cowboy he pulled out a pistol and shot it,
And the gambler, he lost his last deal.
Then the cowboy, he rides toward the line-shack and stays there,
While Wyoming winter-winds wail,
Soon the store-keeper's daughter arrives with provisions,
And a posse that's close on her trail.
Now the posse gives up and turns back in the blizzard,
While Wyoming winter winds roar,
Then the lovers, they travel from Cheyenne to Denver,
And they marry, and open a store.
It's a Wyoming winter, there's snowflakes and sleet coming down,
It's a Wyoming winter, they're safe from the trouble in town.

They crossed the final peak; boiling condensation mounting from their muzzles.
Night was fast approaching; a relief to weary withers as well as the heavy hoof......
"The coldest flipping winter!", cursed Laine Ledoux as he dismounted from atop his sleigh.
He then said, "My ladies----My valiant team of two, Shadow and Gypsy, could pull me to the moon!"
Laine pitched camp together; no shelter from the cold.
Then he started supper, upon a midnight open stove.
Both horses fell asleep with Laine scratching on their poles.
Wee hours locked in chaos;
rushed awake by fright of ambush!!!
Howls in the wind?
Again! And again!!!
Wolves are all around; the pack gives chase to three!
Laine clears Shadows croup; securing the reins he rides.
Her forelock was whipping like a battle flag in the vast and mighty sky; no stranger to the wind.
The beasts are gaining ground; keeping tempo with her fetlocks.
Finally pulled away, having ridin' desperately through the night.
"Resonating howls have surely bogged my mind;
as annoying as a rock in a frog or something of the kind." Said Laine.
Laine noticed Shadow's leg slowly beginning to give.
The source of all the pain was deep within the gaskin, somewhere between the hock and the anatomically superior stifle, and simply needs to be rub away.
Laine said, "Shadow, you're fit as a fiddle; no need for a vet. The situation is akin to my head; no need for a coronet."

Ride brush,
stray search.
Sit high,
leather perch.
Lasso thrown,

Chaps warm,

Twenty years,

Spurs jingle,
double rowel.
Heading home,
round corral.

They start at dawn, and go until eve.
Working all day long,
They bring furniture into homes.
Firewood into our burners.
They're faces rough with scruff,
touch of dirt, with dust in hair.
Plaid and jeans to cover their skin,
Boots made of leather to cover the toe.
Wearing these things to keep warm from the chilling weather.
By their side carrying cold heavy wood sword of steel.

We are far from the hum, but not far enough—
Worlds not of our making intrude – life is rough.
Winter birds are not wheeling in the steel gray sky—
Seems seasons bring questions, but no good day to die.
Unlike black and white westerns, there's no good end—
We may beat back bad men but die without a friend.
Oh, we all wish that things did not turn out that way—
But God is not silent and has the final say.

Winters last Snowfall
The seasons of the year come and go.
Each so unique from the other.
I have always regretted the end of winter along with the seasons last snowfall.
Which brings a feeling of sorrow, with Spring's arrival.
I observe the sun rise higher over the landscape with each passing day.
Watching the winter snow melting as the days get longer and warmer.
Causing the snow to melt from the top of the trees to the ground within days and weeks.
While Patches of snow are desperately hiding in shadows of day light and persisting though another cold spring nights.
Knowing that in a short time the snow will be totally gone.
Along with the excitement of winter.
Leaving only the memories of winter and cold gray sky's with falling snow.
Remembering cold winter nights that are aglow by a winter solstice moon shinning on a snow covered landscape.
The glow from the snow reflecting back toward the winter night sky with stars so bright.
For me it's the most wonderful time of the year.
While counting the days till winter's arrival and seasons first snowfall for the coming year.

Stan started working on fixing the fences early. We had three heifers that spent the winter outside in the paddock just below the barn and he wanted to get them on to some fresh grass before we took them to summer pasture. The first round of fence fixing usually involves strapping on a work belt filled with fence staples for where the wire isn't electrified, insulators and nails for where it is electrified, fence clips to hold the wire to the insulators, a hammer and a pair of fencing plyers. Stan carries the post maul, a14 pound piece of cast metal attached to a wooden handle that can give you a workout, and gives each post a tap with it. If he finds a broken post, he walks back and gets one off the post pile behind the shed - 6 foot split black locust (Robinia psuedoacacia) posts, very sturdy and long lasting fence posts. When the fence that needs fixing gets beyond the range of an easy walk back, he breaks out the fence fixing trailer.
The fence fixing trailer began its life as a truck. Stan bought the frame and turned it into a one axel trailer, with a very heavy hitch. He put a plywood seat with a strap in it for our daughters when they were tiny, and the first outing of the year was a day long marathon of fence fixing with a picnic in the middle. Now, when the trailer goes out, it's often Stan by himself, or our son-in-law and grandson and there are no picnics. It is a marathon, but they come back to the house to eat and refill the water bottles.
In the midst of all the fence fixing, there are also oats to be planted. We don't plant oats for grain, but use them as a cover crop and chop them for silage. Occasionally, due to weather and other work, they get ahead of us and then they will be combined and taken to the local feed mill to be exchanged for mixed grain, but that seldom happens. As a cover crop for the grasses that will be new hay meadow, they sprout early and grow tall enough before the grass to give the little seedlings protection from weather and birds. The fields that are plowed down for the oats were millet pasture the year before. As we don't raise corn, we use the millet both as a late season pasture and to break the sod of a piece that needs to be refreshed.
After the fences are done and the oats planted, comes turn out. The heifers that will be spending the summer on pastures at my brother's farm and Stan's brother's farm go out first for a week or so of a refresher course on fence etiquette. This involves reintroducing electrified barbed wire to those who were out last year, and a crash course in "Fences and Why You Stay in Them" for those who weren't out last year. The experienced heifers are usually not a problem. There might be an overenthusiastic run through a closed gate, but they tend to be more interested in the grass on this side of the fence after a winter of hay. Those who haven't ever been out are a different story. They are unaccustomed to the freedom of being able to run, and the wires seem so unsubstantial, until they run into them. The jolt from a fencer will make your arm tingle for a bit if you grab onto it. Heifers hit them most often with their noses. One would think it would bring them to a screeching halt. Unfortunately this is not the case. In fact, some heifers seem to find the sensation of great interest and worth repeating. A few years ago, we had a heifer who decided to taste the wire. She didn't just stick her tongue on it. She wrapped her tongue around it. The fencer has a pulse, with a pause between that should have more than given her time enough to unwrap her tongue, but she was stupefied by it. We eventually turned the fencer off for a very short time and she unwound and backed away. Truth to tell, she never was much of a bother after her experience.
After the heifers are fully refreshed and trained, we load them into the cattle trailer. The easiest way to accomplish the loading is to back the trailer up to the little side door at the back of the barn and run the heifers into the barn, divide them into two groups of four or five and get them into the two sections of the trailer. The pregnant heifers went first this year to spend the summer in a five paddock rotation at my brother's. There are now eleven there, all due in late summer to early fall. Loading this bunch into the cattle trailer wasn't too bad, as they've all been on trips to pasture before. This does not mean that there weren't one or two that wanted to skip the ride, or ride alone, or just be onery, but all in all it didn't go too badly.
The next bunch were the younger heifers, not yet bred. They spent last summer either out in the old orchard here or in the barn, and had no experience with the cattle trailer. This can make for a more interesting job of loading. First, there was the running them back into the barn. There were some on the other side of the little rill in the paddock below the barn and Stan sent Sadie, the head cow dog, down to get them. She attempted to run around behind them, but they seemed to be more interested in following her than letting her herd them. Every time she would work her way around one, the rest would switch ends and come up behind her. At one point, I do believe I saw her throw her front paws in the air and say "WHAT???" Stan finally called her off and went down to get those that weren't following Sadie back to where I stood. We got them shooed through the gate and then quickly pushed them into the barn before they had a chance to think about it. Stan shut the barn door and I moved around a group of four that had stopped about half way up the barn floor. We moved them quickly back to the alley way and, amazingly, into the trailer. Stan shut the door that divides the two sections and I stepped back, only to find a heifer taking a tear at me. I wedged myself into a corner and she turned into the alley way, leaped into the cattle trailer and launched herself over the closed divider, getting stuck with her front half up with the enclosed heifers and her rear in the back section. Stan gave me a look, gave her a look, said a couple of choice words, climbed back into the trailer and pushed her rear end (and what, one asks, does the back half of a 650 pound heifer weigh when one is lifting it over a four and a half foot door? And one answers, "TOO (grunt) MUCH!) into the front section with the rest of her. The remaining heifers had inserted themselves into stalls that already had rather large cows standing in them, and had to be extracted, a job best done from the front I went around to the manger and chased them out, one by one, first on one side of the barn, then on the other side of the barn, then back again. Finally, with them all standing in a clump on the barn floor, I went to chase them down to the alley way, and there stood Sadie, smack dab in front of them. They balked. Stan yelled at Sadie, I yelled at the heifers. They bolted, leaped the gutter at the end of the barn, did a ninety-degree turn into the alley and stopped dead at the trailer. Stan had at this point, had enough of heifers and gave one a sharp crack on the rear. She jumped and accidently got her front feet on the trailer floor. One more crack and she was in, the rest following rather abruptly. I didn't bother to wave as Stan pulled out the driveway. I didn't want them to think I was going to miss them.
With the heifers out and off to summer camp, as our then four year old granddaughter once said, it was time for the cows to be turned out. This is usually easy, and amusing. Watching those big old bossies with their ample udders run out the back barn door kicking their heels in the air brings a smile every time I watch it. This year was no exception, until one particularly large cow missed the open gate to the paddock, lowered her head, popped the gate to the lane way and took off. The three quarters of the herd that was coming out of the barn behind her lit out like a burry of jack rabbits, large, lumbering jack rabbits. There is nothing graceful about an adult cow. They have large deep bodies, long skinny legs and those udders. As heifers some few may achieve a certain deer-like grace, but it disappears rapidly when they mature. Stan, coming out the barn door and seeing most of his herd galloping down the lane to the little woods paddock said, "Oh, for heaven's sake!" or something along those lines and put his hands on his hips in disgust. I just laughed quietly and went back to the flower bed I intended to rescue from the dandelions. It is sometimes best not to comment.
With the oats in, the fences fixed and the cows and older heifers out, early spring work is done. Now begins late spring work, which this year involves getting the haying equipment ready for that week near the end of May when first cutting will start. There's always something to be done.

TM is a rare disorder, involving an inflammatory attack in the central nervous system. This can happen anywhere along the spinal cord, causing a 'lesion' usually visible on an MRI scan.
Attacks are normally one-off episodes, but sometimes recur in different places along the spinal cord. Many people, even if severely affected initially, will make a good recovery within a few months following an attack. But most people are permanently affected to some degree.
The TM Society is a national charity completely dependant on donations.

Hi. The scrolling does not work in vertical view properly. How to make the scrolling bar visible? Can you send us athe code and css?
I meant the horizontal view. Is there a possibily to show a scrolling bar?
Please let me know before purchase….
Hello mate, profession is using nice.scroll plugin, it's possible to make the scroller visible, send us and email using our profile page for more info.
Hello and congratulations for this gourgeous theme.
Just some questions before buying:
- My portfolio items descriptions are quite long. ¿Is there any problem scrolling this long texts vertical way on horizontal display?,¿Can I place buttons to external links inside these texts? - I'm not too used with sliders. I suppose there are some included in the theme, as seen in demo. ¿Are they configurable? I mean, ¿there is any possibility of changing texts, colors, or so (we have a different corporate colour)? - Again about the slider: I need to place almost 10 logos. ¿Is it possible? and, ¿is it possible to give each of them an external link?
Thank you very much in advance and sorry because of all my questions Hoping helping somebody else in his election.
Hello mate, thank you very much
The answer to all of your question is Yes. All of them are possible, and if you put a large text in portfolio detail, it will get a scroll-er by default. Also the slider is included and very customizable.
I installed your theme this morning. For some reason, I cannot get any images on my site to load. Since this is my showcase as a professional photographer, that's a bit of a problem.
Please advise. Standing by with a useless website: http://www.stevenstiefel.com
You have used image attachment ID instead of it's actual URL, When you want to upload an image in theme settings, before pressing the "Insert" button, there's an option called "File URL", you should click on File URL button in front of that option. If you had any problem doing that, send us an email using our profile page and mention your website URL and WordPress username and password, and i will fix it for you.
Seems to have worked. Thanks.
Youre welcome.
How do I get the custom part, the Layer Slide, to show up as part of the #Home page. I did one and it is displayed as a small clip like a blog post. Please take a look… http://www.stevenstiefel.com/custom-part/what-people-say/
Please watch the "Profession slider in custom part" video here: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8E_YDRvzh5Nz-sYUh2JPpauOrOhwDIzi

Best, Daniel
Hi, In next version is it possible to add some share buttons (facebook, twitter, Google+) to the blog page, at the end of each post??
Best, Daniel
Hello Daniel, Unfortunately it's not possible at the moment, but there are several good social network sharing plugins for WordPress that you can use, just google them.
Hi, in your sample blog pages, the previous button is located on the right and next button is located on the left. I'm quite sure this is unintentional, but could this be changed? I have an old iTouch running iOS 5.1.1. Safari loads the vertical version fine, but when tilted horizontally, the dimensions become too big. Do slider effects change color along with main color?
Dear saping
The position of button can change easily , about the horizontal version we will check the to see if there is any issue , about the slider , the slider template are available with theme package and you can edit it and change the main color of it.
sounds great! got it!
The next and previous button at my blog page is not centered or one to the left and the other to the right. Both the buttons are to the right. How can I change that? Check out what I mean here: http://www.stalback.net/nya-sattet-att-lasa-tidningar/
.nav_box{ float:left; }
Hi, Is it possible to use others colors theme skin ? or i have to use the only 8 colors ?
Hello, yes you can make your own custom colors using "appearance > theme settings > layout management > theme general color" and other color pickers.
and to change the color of the Menu Scroll Bar ?
Do you mean the menu box on top?
Yes, the main menu on the top…
It's the same as others, you should use theme general color in theme settings.
I tried, but in "layout settings" i can choose only 8 colors and not more. I tried to choose an other color in "Theme general Color" but the "Main Menu Bar" doesn't change.
Please send us your website URL and WP login information using our profile page so i can help you with that.
Wonderful ! Thanks for your quick help!
You're welcome mate.

Hello mate, glad you could take care of it, if you needed assistant, please let me know.
Is it possible to translate the theme. I am from Sweden and would like it to be in Swedish. I have tried this plugin http://wordpress.org/plugins/codestyling-localization/ But I received this message: Error: The actual loaded translation content does not match the textdomain: profession Expect, that any text you translate will not occure as long as the textdomain is mismatching! This is a coding issue at the source files you try to translate, please contact the original Author and explain this mismatch.
Hello mate, you can translate Profession using this tutorial: http://www.solostream.com/blog/tutorials/translate-wordpress-theme/

Yes, you can go to language folder in profession folder, open english po and mo files and create the sweeden version using that.
Okay, so I download the English po and mo files and translate them in Poedit and then? What shall I save them as and how will the theme choose the Swedish files over the English files?
Hi, I have now downloaded Poedit and start translated the en.po file. I tested some phrases and uploaded the new file but the text is still in English. What am I doing wrong?
As it said in tutorial you should save the new words in a sweeden po and mo file, the set your site on sweeden language using wp-config.php file.
Hi, Thanks. I have figured it out now but I have one more question:
In the English po-file I cannot find the phrases: "Read more", "Post comment" and "says". And I have translated the phrase "Leave a comment" but it is not translate when I have uploaded the now file.
Hello, you're welcome. Open "comment.php" and go to line 44 and you can change "Says" to anything you like. For the rest of words please send us and email using our profile page.

Hello,i sent an email, i'm still waiting for your reply. Thanks
Hello mate, we will answer your soon.
Hey guys, i just purchased this template and its awesome ! I love this minimal and professional style
But i have a question: How can i set a slider as an "about" picture like in the vertical preview. Because i want to use more pictures.
Hey mate, thank you very much for purchasing our theme and your kind words
You have to make a slideshow with layer slider, then put that slideshow shortcode in custom part using "custom part" post type. After that you have to set the custom part as the starting section of your website using "appearance > theme settings > custom part".
thanks for the fast support i will do that Which slider size would you suggest me, to fill out the whole place ? ( as in your preview )
You're welcome mate, it's 980×510 pixel.
okay. and for the horizontal layout style ?
You should use the same size.
May I know if it is possible to change the "map pointer" color? it seems like it is set to yellow. I am able to change all other colors.
Go to "assets > img" and open "marker.png" with a image editor like photoshop and change it's color.
What if I am using wordpress, where can I replace "marker.png?"
You can also go to "assets > content > img > markers", copy any of those marker and paste it to "assets > img" and rename it to "marker.png".
Just installed the template, but it wont show the vertical theme and although we have imported the demo content, it is not appearing? Any ideas on how to troubleshoot?
Hello mate, for having the vertical version, go to "appearance > theme settings > layout management" and activate the vertical layout, for more information including demo content please watch this videos: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8E_YDRvzh5Nz-sYUh2JPpauOrOhwDIzi
Thank you for the quick response. It worked. Now we are trying to add sub menus to the main navigation areas. How do we do this. Example: Blog > Video When we go to appearance we can change details but how do we add a sub menu to those items?
Dear FierceEnigma
You can go to appearance and set the current menu as primary menu and then manage your menus , you can learn about menus in following linkhttp://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Menu_User_Guide
Thank you, but for example the "Portfolio" on the main menu (default) is not found as a page, and therefore we cannot add to it at all.
We have some fixed menu items like about/home, portfolio, contact… when you create a menu and set it as primary menu, the menu you have created will be added to fixed menu items like portfolio.

Seeking perfection in your work leaves you running through a seemingly endless loop of make, hate, repeat. Which is why, over on Fast Company, Rebecca Greenfield looks to famed animator Hayao Miyazaki for how he overcomes the trap of creative perfectionism. Greenfield writes:
Creativity is not a very glamorous process, but instead one that leaves you feeling like a constant failure. As fans of Miyazaki know, his works, considered classics, are nowhere near failures. Still, a creative perfectionist like Miyazaki would only see his work's the flaws. The only way to keep creating without stewing in regret, then, is to continue on to bravely march ahead into the next project.
Greenfield quotes Miyazaki on the matter:
"Making films is all about–as soon as you're finished–continually regretting what you've done. When we look at films we've made, all we can see are the flaws; we can't even watch them in a normal way. I never feel like watching my own films again. So unless I start working on a new one, I'll never be free from the curse of the last one. I'm serious. Unless I start working on the next film, the last one will be a drag on me for another two or three years."
If you catch yourself endlessly chasing perfection in your work, remember that the best way to avoid the trap is to simply move onto the next thing. The best part of moving from one project to another — rather than endlessly hoping to improve what you've done — is that you learn what works over time. The result of which is every new project improving on the previous. So while you may never feel like you're creating something perfect, you'll certainly feel like your work is improving. Which, as we can learn from Miyazaki, is the best we can ask for.
To escape the trap of perfectionism, check out Miyazaki's advice over on Fast Company.

text: Apocalyptic expectations of Armageddon and a New Age have been a fixture of the American cultural landscape for centuries. With the approach of the year 2000, such millennial visions seem once again to be increasing in popularity. Stephen O'Leary sheds new light on the age-old phenomenon of the End of the Age by proposing a rhetorical explanation for the appeal of millennialism. Using examples of apocalyptic argument from ancient to modern times, O'Leary identifies the recurring patterns in apocalyptic texts and movements and shows how and why the Christian Apocalypse has been used to support a variety of political stances and programs. The book concludes with a critical review of the recent appearances of doomsday scenarios in our politics and culture, and a meditation on the significance of the Apocalypse in the nuclear age. Arguing the Apocalypse is the most thorough examination of its subject to date: a study of a neglected chapter of our religious and cultural history, a guide to the politics of Armageddon, and a map of millennial consciousness.

Pocket Breads for Health
I've been interested in replacing the store bought loaves of bread brought into the house with a healthy alternative. So I began experimenting with pocket breads. At first I used 1/2 wole wheat flour 1/2 unbleached flour and made some nice 8oz pocket breads for sandwiches and whatever else. They are big but they puff up nice, I make 4 at a time. I then went 1/2 whole wheat and 1/2 whole spelt. The kneading was interesting and the 4 cups of flour took less water. The spelt made the bread a little less pliable and you could watch it tear when forming the doughballs I would later roll out, rest and bake. I could still get them to puff up but I had to pay a lot of attention to how long the formed pockets rested before ending up in the oven. Today I'm trying something new. I doubled the amount to 6 cups of flour. 3 whole wheat, 2 spelt and 1 golden flaxmeal. I'm almost convinced that the addition of 1/3 cup of Vital Gluten will put the dough back into the easy to puff catagory. Cant wait to see if this works.
Since I started baking these pockets no bread came off the shelf fron the grocery store. These breads seem to have been problematic because of the ease of witch you could just take it out of a bag toast it and slather it with something not so good for us. With these home baked pockets our bread intake has lessened by more than half. The things we use bread for like pocket sandwiches or eating with a bowl of capanata, grilled cheese or with a bowl of cacciatore seem to be a lot more enjoyable and it looks like the butter and jelly are disapearing fast. Homebaking these breads is changing our lives.

With the clocks springing forward this past weekend, it only seems fitting that today's flower should help to represent the "spring" season we've all been so eagerly waiting for. Daffodils, also referred to as Narcissus, are one of the first flowers to bloom in springtime and can be found between March and end of May {but if imported from Europe can be available as early as October}. Because they are so readily available here in the US, they are also an inexpensive addition to your florals and decor.
One interesting fact I learned about these lovely blooms while doing my research is that Daffodils have sap which is toxic to other flowers, so it is recommended that you leave them in water on their own for at least 12 hours before mixing with other flowers and do not recut the stems. There is also specially formulated cut flower food available for mixing daffodils with other flowers. I never would have thought that!
Daffodils are the symbol of new beginnings and friendship, and are available in over 25,000 varieties of yellow, white, orange and if you search hard enough, even a peachy pink.
Though not a common wedding flower, after some digging, I actually found some lovely inspiration that surprised me, and I'm of course excited to share with you today! {And with the recent trend of bright yellows and muted grays, Daffodils are a perfect way to bring in that pop of color}.

Blood Rock is at 80,000 words, and is complete through chapter 26 (though I have written parts of chapters 27-57, including a huge chunk at the end right around the climax). It's getting closer … I expect the first draft to come in somewhere around 90,000 to 95,000 words.

You know, surprisingly, I'm okay with Rob being safe for now. I honestly saw some improvement last night! However, I do not want Carson/Anna to go home!
It really should be Nancy and Chaz to go, but since it's not, I sure hope it's Kristen (crossing my fingers and wishing really, really hard!)
Keep your feet on the ground, when your heads in the clouds!
Carson's in jeopardy? NOOOOOOO! If Chaz stays and he goes home, I'm going to be FURIOUS.
Nancy's safe too? Crap. I don't hate her or anything, but I'd rather keep Carson.
Maks too? AARGH!
Rob's safe, Chaz is safe, Nancy's safe....so that leaves Chynna, Kristin, and David, right?
Please let it be Kristin....PLEASE!
This season goes way downhill. Only celebs I care about probably don't have a chance of winning, except J.R. Love Carson and David, and want to like Chynna, but always forget about her.
If David is in the bottom again - that is all 3 that I threw my votes too . I'm such bad luck - I don't think any of my favorites ever won!
Well, David was actually in real jeopardy last week, though that might have pulled in calls for him this week. It's not that I necessarily want him to go, but Kym won last season, so I wouldn't feel that terrible if she left early, and I'd rather keep Maks than David.
Filler time of how close the stars are. Some odd coincidence connections. Kristin was dating a Jenner who's the step dad to Rob who's dad was with Johnny Cochran who had a show with Nancy...can we just get to the results?
I kind of feel like Maks/Hope know. Might just be my paranoia, too First I lose one Chmerkovskiy, now I'm likely going to lose the other. Give them the ringers next season!

DK–1260 Copenhagen
Approximately 2,5 billion years ago, accelerated photosynthesis amongst early life forms led to increased levels of available oxygen, whereas previously only small quantities of free oxygen (O2) existed in the earth's atmosphere.
The new abundance of oxygen was initially absorbed by minerals in the early oceans, most notably in the form of oxidized iron. Once those metals became fully oxidized, the remaining free oxygen began to release into the atmosphere.
This led to the so-called "Oxygen Catastrophe" – fatal for early methane-based life forms. Occurrences of 'mass-rusting' in the oceans deposited banded iron formations, amassing the largest iron ore resources of today.
The exhibition "Rost" debuts 9 works painted with water on pulverized iron applied to canvas. The technique continues Daniel Lergon's formal practice of painting with transparent, non-pigmented media on loaded surfaces, his use of water in this case encouraging the iron to oxidize.
Until recently, Lergon's practice explored the physical potential of light and reflection upon surface, applying transparent varnishes to a variety of light-sensitive fabrics.
Lergon's intervention has now transitioned to a chemical modulation of the surface, signaling a deviation from his former interpretations that manifested the physical properties of light.
Daniel Lergon (b. 1978, DE) was educated at the Universität der Künste in Berlin under Lothar Baumgarten. He has been exhibited widely in Europe, with recent solo exhibitions in Stockholm, Vienna, Paris, and Cologne. His work will be highlighted in the forthcoming 3rd edition of the "Meditations Biennale" in Poznan, Poland – opening September 14th.

August 4th, 2009
Almost 3 years I sprained my ankle pretty bad while playing football. I actually tried playing in the game about 3 days after the initial sprain which looking back was a bad idea because I could hardly walk much less run. But about 3 weeks later I was almost pain free and the athletic trainer allowed me to play in a game in which I re-injured the same ankle. After the season was over I allowed the ankle rest until I was without pain and I continued with off-season training without letting the ankle heal completely. Ever since then I have had pain, stiffness, and soreness in my ankle and I am able to "pop" it regularly. In the past few months this has become worse and is almost to the point of being unbearable. I honestly believe that I fractured my ankle and I should have seen a doctor then but I did not do so because the athletic trainer did not tell me to. Is any treatment I could do to relieve this pain or is my best option to see a doctor? And if I do see a doctor what would they be able to do for me? Thank you in advance.

Yes, I think you may have possibly injured your ankle...See an Orthopedist...He is the best...If ever you play football again, listen to your body....Very often a trainer has the best interest of the team at heart...He doesn't know the pain you are in and even though you want to help the other guys, you are hurting yourself...Good luck...

Yes, I have to agree with Caroline. Trainers often will tell a player to go on anyway, and that is definitely NOT the thing to do with an injury. I just broke my foot and I have been in a cast for weeks. The one thing I learned from this is that when I injured something in the past, I should not have tried to fix it myself. I noticed something wrong with my ankle a while ago and did not go to the doctor, now he is going to take xrays or an MRI and see what happened. My advice: GO TO THE DOCTOR, a podiatrist is doing just fine with my foot, but anything about the foot and ankle probably needs an orthopedic person. I'm not sure podiatrists do ankles, but my podiatrist has been fine so far with the cast and therapy.

Vallejo set in motion a foreclosed property registration ordinance in February.
Now, as the registry is on the brink of launching for community-wide enforcement, the city's Code Enforcement Division has set a public meeting on the issue -- for mortgage holders, banks and concerned residents alike.
"The public fought hard for this vacant property registration program," Code Enforcement Manager Nimat Shakoor-Grantham said. "We want to show people. With this program we're not waiting until the squatters break into the property."
Those responsible for foreclosed properties -- more than 300 unique sites in some stage of foreclosure have been identified by the city already -- will be required to register and pay the city $368 per foreclosed property, board up and secure the site within 10 days, perform monthly site visits, maintain the property and visibly provide their contact information for neighbors, among other provisions, Shakoor-Grantham said.
The meeting is set to run from 6 to 8 p.m. Wednesday at the John F. Kennedy Library's Joseph Room, 505 Santa Clara St.
For more information, contact Shakoor-Grantham at 648-4522 and firstname.lastname@example.com, or Senior Code Enforcement Officer Dong Yoo at 648-4389 and email@example.com.

Gaithersburg, Maryland, USA - Februray 28th, 2006 - GL Communications Inc., a leading provider of test and measurement solutions for TDM, VoIP, and Wireless networks, announced today the start of a nationwide deployment of a Digital (T1) Line Monitoring, Test, and Diagnostic System for the United States Postal Service (USPS).
GL's solution for USPS features an instant overall view of the health of the entire network with the ability to successively drill down to individual T1 lines. Maintenance engineers can securely access the network view from literally "anywhere" that Internet access is available. They can also monitor, diagnose, and troubleshoot any T1 line remotely with simple to use scripts. The system can also monitor USPS's "Ethernet" traffic at all USPS hub locations.
Vijay Kulkarni, CEO of GL Communications Inc., explained "USPS's large network required us to clearly present clarity at different network levels. Our solution has a "rolled up view" of the entire T1 network. This view shows problems immediately but permits a detailed revelation down to individual T1 lines if desired. Our T1 probes are also capable of analyzing the content of the T1 lines, if USPS should need to in the future."

We show that the reported tendency for performance pay to be associated with greater wage inequality at the top of the earnings distribution applies only to white workers. This results in the white-black wage differential among those in performance pay jobs growing over the earnings distribution even as the same differential shrinks over the distribution for those not in performance pay jobs. We show that this remains true even when examining suitable counterfactuals that hold observables constant between whites and blacks. We explore reasons behind our finding focusing on the interactions between discrimination, unmeasured ability, and selection.

Candlelight Walk for 5-Year-Old Nathan Norman Fighting Cancer
Rustburg, VA - There's a candlelight walk Friday for Nathan Norman, the
Reality Ministries International of Bedford wants to raise awareness for childhood cancer.
The walk starts at 7 p.m. at the Bedford Court House and ends at Reality Ministries.
It's the least organizer Lisa Dodson could do as a friend of the family.
"This is the first time I've had someone so close to me and so young be affected by childhood cancer. We're expecting a miracle. All of us are expecting a miracle for him and we've all gathered to do this for him," said Dodson.
Organizers want you to wear your Christmas best and bring donations.
The Norman family puts together bags for sick kids at Duke where Nathan gets his treatment. They need things like pens, pencils, crayons, coloring books or small toys.
You can also donate directly to the Norman family.

WINDER - Life was less stressful for Winder-Barrow at this point last season.

The then-Class AAAA Bulldoggs, a senior-laden bunch, headed into their regular-season finale versus Clarke Central with a postseason berth already in hand.
But this year's youth-filled installment of Winder-Barrow football won't have that luxury at 7:30 p.m. Friday when Hart County arrives at W. Clair Harris Stadium. The Bulldoggs (5-4, 3-3 in Region 8-AAA) must beat Hart County to assure themselves at least the fourth and final playoff seed coming out of 8-AAA.
Hart County (7-2, 4-2 in 8-AAA) faces a similar challenge. If Hart County loses to the Bulldoggs, its hope of making the playoffs could be extinguished.
"We've got to step it up and have some playmakers," Winder-Barrow senior receiver Jeremy Jackson said Tuesday.
"We're going in like we have nothing else to lose. I think we can get them."
After the Bulldoggs lost a bulk of key players to graduation following the 2003 season, it's been a topsy-turvy campaign for Winder-Barrow. The Bulldoggs pieced together separate two-game win streaks, but have dropped games to the tougher 8-AAA competition, including Oconee County, Stephens County and last week's 17-10 road loss to Elbert County.
The task gets more difficult against Hart County, which boasts a first-team defense that has allowed just three offensive touchdowns this season.
What's more, the Bulldogs are coming off a momentous, last-minute 19-7 home victory over region-leading Oconee County.
"They could very easily be 9-0 right now," said Winder-Barrow coach Brian Allison, whose Bulldoggs haven't faced Hart County since a 45-7 loss in 2001.
"To me, Hart County is as good as any team in the region."
Hart County's overpowering defense has garnered most of the attention this season, but the Bulldogs' offense is finally becoming a formidable threat since freshman Kurvin Curry was promoted to the starting quarterback spot about three weeks ago.
Trailing 7-6 to Oconee County with 2:55 left in regulation, the 5-foot-9, 170-pound freshman converted a fourth-and-13 and a fourth-and-15 and guided Hart County 80 yards, scoring the go-ahead touchdown with :35 remaining.
Curry has given Hart County the run/pass threat it had been searching for since the season started, and it's a facet of Friday night's game that concerns Allison.
"I dread seeing him for the next four years," Allison joked. "He's very athletic and he throws the ball well. He's the real deal."
Winder-Barrow has an emerging quarterback as well. During the last two outings, junior Greg Childers has been effective in passing situations. Against Franklin County two weeks ago, Childers was 10 of 10 passing for 166 yards in the first half. Last week, he went 8-for-11 versus Elbert County.
Jackson said Childers' rapid emergence as an efficient passer will have to continue against Hart County.
"We have to be able to pass the ball so we can open up the run for Glenn (Perkins)," he said. "If we pass the ball, we can beat them.
"We've just told him (Childers) to throw the ball and we'll go get it. He's starting to trust us a lot more."
Said Allison: "It's on the kids, now. They know what they've got to do to keep playing. They know if they don't prepare then we'll be done. There will be 13 of them that won't play another one."
Jackson and company hope to prevent that at least for now.

Huntington Bancshares Incorporated (HBAN - Free Report) reported adjusted earnings per share of 19 cents in first-quarter 2014, beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 17 cents. Notably, the figure came in line with the prior-year quarter earnings.
Huntington's results were driven by top-line growth and lower provision for credit losses. Further, loan and deposit balances exhibited growth. However, the quarter witnessed higher expenses.
Net income for the quarter came in at $149.4 million, down 3% year over year. Notably, the reported net income included $14.0 million on an after-tax basis owing to the acquisition of Camco Financial and increased litigation reserves.
Quarter in Detail
Huntington's total revenue on a fully taxable-equivalent (FTE) basis was $691.9 million, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $677.0 million. Further, total revenue was up 1% year over year.
Huntington's net interest income (NII) stood at $443.4 million on a FTE basis, up 3% from the prior-year quarter. The rise reflected increase in other earnings assets, partially offset by a 17-basis points (bps) decline in net interest margin (NIM) to 3.27%.
Huntington's non-interest income fell 3% year over year to $248.5 million. The decline was primarily due to a significant drop in mortgage banking income and lower other income. These were partly offset by increased service charges on deposit accounts and electronic banking income.
Further, non-interest expense at Huntington was up 4% year over year to $460.1 million. The rise was mainly due to increased costs related to equipment, net occupancy, professional services and other expenses. These factors were partly offset by fall in personnel costs and lower deposit and other insurance expenses as well as amortization of intangibles. Notably, including certain non-recurring items, the non-interest expenses fell $4 million year over year.
As of Mar 31, 2014, total loans and leases at Huntington increased 7% year over year to $44.4 billion, while total deposits rose 5% to $49.3 billion.
Credit Quality
Credit quality metrics improved on the whole in the reported quarter. Huntington's provision for credit losses decreased 17% from the prior-year quarter to $24.6 million due to the continued decline in classified, criticized and non-accrual loans.
Net charge-offs (NCOs) were $43.0 million or an annualized 0.40% of average total loans and leases in the reported quarter, down from $51.7 million or an annualized 0.51% in the prior-year quarter.
Moreover, the quarter-end allowance for credit losses (ACL) as a percentage of total loans and leases, declined to 1.56% from 1.91% in the prior-year quarter.
Total non-performing assets (NPAs), including non-accrual loans and leases at Huntington were $365.3 million as of Mar 31, 2014 and compared favorably with $415.5 million at the prior-year quarter end.
Capital Ratio
Huntington's capital ratios remained strong. As of Mar 31, 2014, Tier 1 common risk-based capital ratio was 10.63%, compared with 10.62% in the prior-year quarter.
Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio stood at 11.99%, compared with 12.16% in the prior-year quarter. Tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio was 8.63%, versus 8.91% in the prior-year quarter.
Capital Deployment
In the first quarter 2014, the company repurchased 14.6 million common stock at an average price of $9.32.
During the quarter, the company successfully cleared the stress test and subsequently its capital plan got approved by the Federal Reserve under the 2014 Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review (CCAR).
Under its 2014 capital plan, Huntington is allowed to hike its quarterly common stock dividend by 20% to 6 cents per share. Notably, on Fed's approval, Huntington's board of directors announced the share repurchase of up to $250 million of its common stock, to be carried through first-quarter 2015..
With the improvement in the economy of the Midwest region, management expects loan growth to be strong in the upcoming quarters, though it remains cautious owing to uncertainties in the larger economy.
Net interest income is projected to grow modestly over the coming quarters owing to the expected rise in earning assets (as total loans are likely to grow modestly while investment securities are expected to remain at current levels).
However, the benefits to net interest income are expected to be mostly offset by persistent pressure on NIM. While the company maintains a disciplined approach to loan pricing, it expects asset yields to remain stressed.
Non-interest income is expected to increase slightly, excluding the impact of any net MSR activity and securities gains. Further, owing to change in consumer checking accounts from Jul 2014, service charges on deposits are expected to be negatively impacted by $6 million per quarter.
Expenses, excluding one-time items, are expected to be relatively higher compared to the current levels. Huntington remains committed to posting positive operating leverage for the full-year 2014.
NPAs are expected to exhibit continued improvement. NCOs will be in the expected normalized range of 35 to 55 basis points. The level of provision for credit losses are expected to be volatile on a quarter-to-quarter basis.
Our Viewpoint
Huntington started 2014 on a positive note. Though it remains a matter of time to see whether the bank will report positive earnings surprises in all 4 quarters of 2014 as it did in 2013, we remain encouraged owing to a number of positive traits.
Huntington has a solid franchise in the Midwest and is focused on capitalizing on growth opportunities. Further, the company exhibits continued efforts in improving its asset quality. Further, its capital deployment initiatives are also commendable that enhances investors' confidence.
However, a tepid economic recovery, low interest rate environment and a stringent regulatory environment are headwinds for the company's financials. Further, with expectations of an expanding expense base, we remain somewhat skeptical about Huntington's ability to drive earnings in the quarters ahead.
Huntington currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
Other Midwest Banks
Commerce Bancshares, Inc.'s (CBSH - Free Report) first-quarter 2014 earnings per share of 67 cents missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by a penny. Results reflected higher operating expenses, partially offset by a slight rise in revenues. However, growth in loans and deposits as well as strong capital and profitability ratios acted as the tailwinds.
Among other Midwest banks, PrivateBancorp, Inc. is scheduled to report its first-quarter 2014 results on Apr 17, while UMB Financial Corp. (UMBF - Free Report) is proposed to release on Apr 23.

Opportunities Abroad: Overview
It is Princeton's goal that all students explore the opportunities for international experience available to them. Two central programs that help undergraduate students make international connections are the Study Abroad Program and the International Internship Program. Both graduate and undergraduate students have a wealth of other international study and research opportunities available to them, including the chance to conduct independent research abroad. The University also supports students interested in engaging in individual or group extracurricular projects abroad.
Launched in fall 2009, the Bridge Year Program enables a select group of incoming undergraduates to spend a year in public service abroad, further underscoring the University's informal motto, "In the nation's service and in the service of all nations."
After graduating, there are many opportunities for lifelong learning and service abroad.
There are more than 160 Princeton regional associations around the world, connecting all Princetonians within a certain geographic boundary to each other and the University. These associations organize activities ranging from social gatherings to alumni interviewing to programs featuring Princeton faculty.

Get DVD Talk Feeds
are, if you're reading this review, you're already a fan of the WWE. I wouldn't
say that I was a "fan" of Vince and his writers since, in my opinion,
they're very repetitive and it's too obvious which superstars get pushed [or in
the case of Triple H, JAMMED down our throats]. However, there are some
wrestlers who possess charisma [Chris Jericho, Randy Orton], some who possess
tremendous athletic ability [Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero, Kurt Angle] and those
that are just plain HOT [Trish Stratus]. And while I realize that wrestling is
"fake/scripted", I can appreciate the athleticism that's on display.
This year's Survivor Series took place on November 14 in Cleveland, Ohio. The
disc runs 2 hours and 37 minutes which, considering the potential of the material that's
here, is pretty short.
Fatal Four Way Match for the Cruiserweight Championship
[Spike Dudley vs. Rey Mysterio vs. Chavo Guerrero vs. Billy Kidman] -
Though I do like Rey, I didn't care much for this match. Billy Kidman bores
me to tears.
Backstage: Heidenreich & Gene Snitsky
WWE Intercontinental Championship Match [Shelton Benjamin
vs. Christian] - Shelton used to be part of "Team Angle" and,
in my opinion, he improved tremendously once he hit Raw. This match wasn't
as good as the one on "Taboo Tuesday" where he fought Christian's
main adversary, Chris Jericho.
Backstage: Kurt Angle, Edge & Eugene
WrestleMania Recall
SmackDown! Classic Survivor Series Match [Eddie Guerrero,
Big Show, Rob Van Dam & John Cena vs. Kurt Angle, Carlito Caribbean
Cool, Mark Jindrak & Luther Reigns] - This was a one-sided match
from the get-go. Carlito was previously injured, so they took care of him
right at the start. I don't care much for Mark or Luther, so that left poor
Kurt to face Eddie, Show, Rob & John. I'm wondering if Kurt was
injured after Eddie's frog splash.
Maven Interview
Undertaker vs. Heidenreich - Watching these two
wrestle is like watching a leaky faucet drip. Except you know that a faucet
might "job" once in a while and lose a match.
Eric Bischoff Interview
WWE Women's Championship Match - Trish Stratus vs. Lita -
Trish is one of the reasons I started watching Raw again. Yet, every time
she gets in the ring with Lita, I fear for her life. Since Lita's returned,
she's missed a ton of spots and has nearly reinjured herself on more
than one occasion.
John Cena, Rob Van Dam, Eddie Guerrero & Big Show in
their Locker Room
WWE Championship Match [JBL vs. Booker T.] - This
wasn't that great of a match. Which is a shame 'cuz Booker was a favorite of
mine on Raw.
WWE's Holiday Tribute to the Troops
Triple H, Batista & Ric Flair in their Locker Room
RAW's Classic Survivor Series Elimination Match [Randy
Orton, Chris Benoit, Chris Jericho, Maven vs. Triple H, Edge, Batista &
Gene Snitsky] - Besides the Trish/Lita match [which I only wanted to see
for Trish], this was the only other match I was looking forward to. I don't
really think Maven belonged on the "face" team, and I don't think
"Snitsky" belongs in the ring. Period. However, this match was
pretty entertaining.
They've also included three 30 second promos that were previously seen on the weekly
broadcasts to hype this event:
Listed as "DVD Exclusives" are:
For the amount of content on the disc, this was an attractive transfer. It's
presented in the full frame 1.33:1 ratio and the picture is pretty sharp. Colors
are bright and there were only slight instances of compression artifacts.
Audio: The Dolby Digital 5.1 sound was crystal clear and enveloped my
living room while I was watching it.
Conclusion: Overall, i'd have to say I enjoyed this disc. While there
were only two matches I really didn't care about, the rest were entertaining
enough. That, along with the great presentation by WWE make this a Recommended
disc for wrestling fans.

First Step in Wildfire Protection – Home Insurance [AUDIO]
Montana Insurance Commissioner Monica Lindeen is urging Montanans who live in areas at risk of wildfire to keep an inventory of their belongings – and be able to retrieve it even if their home is damaged.
Spokeswoman Jennifer McKee said on Thursday that oftentimes wildfire preparation neglects the most important item of all, effective home insurance.
"Mostly people talk about defensible space when it comes to protecting their homes from wildfire, but for people who have really been through a fire, what quickly becomes a centerpiece of their lives is their insurance," McKee said. "We wanted to get some information out a little ahead of fire season so that you could prove to your insurance company what you lost, in the unfortunate event that you may lose everything."
McKee said the easiest way to prepare is to assemble an inventory of possessions inside the home.
"There's a free checklist on our website, or you can download an app from the National Association of Insurance Commissioners," McKee said. "This allows you to take pictures of your possessions, which are then stored up in the computer cloud. That way, if you were evacuated and couldn't get back to your home, you would still have all of that information in a place where they couldn't be destroyed."
Anyone who has gone through the experience of losing their home in a wildfire and has had trouble dealing with their insurance company is encouraged to call Commissioner Lindeen's office at 1-800-332-6148.

Though it is often confused as one, Inside Self-Storage (ISS) is not an industry association. It does, however, provide many of the same resources and benefits. Through its website, publications, expos, training institute, online community and vendor relationships, ISS provides self-storage owners, managers, investors and developers with the resources they need to be successful in the business; and now, ISS is pleased to offer an official membership program, with three tiers of packaged benefits at extraordinary value.
Following are common questions being asked about the new program. To learn more or become a member, visit www.insideselfstorage.com/signup.aspx.
If ISS is not an association, what is it?
ISS is a dynamic services provider that creates educational resources specifically for the self-storage industry. It is owned and operated by VIRGO, an information-distribution company based in Phoenix. Until now, ISS could engage with its audience on many levels, but it was not possible for its users to officially "join ISS." The new ISS Membership Program changes all that.
What do I get if I become an ISS Member?
It depends on the package you choose. Members pick the Basic, Manager Plus or Owner Advantage package. Each contains different benefits tailored to the user's needs including live and online education, publications, marketing services, human-resources services, insurance resources and discounts, and more. See the detailed package descriptions on the next page.
How is being a member different from subscribing to ISS magazine or attending an ISS Expo?
When you sign up for ISS Membership, you buy into a streamlined, convenient package that provides deep discounts on popular industry products, services and informational resources. Once you register, all of your benefits are clearly listed and explained for you on a personalized account page at InsideSelfStorage.com. From this one Web page, you can directly access each of your benefits and discounts or get detailed instructions on how to activate them.
For example, John Smith signs up for a Manager Plus package. To access his benefits, he visits www.insideselfstorage.com and logs in to his account. From there, he gets a promo code for a $75 discount on the Qualified Storage Manager online-training program; he clicks on a link for free access to the 2011 Legal Learning Webinar Series; he gets instructions for claiming his free creative ad design from Michaels Wilder; and much more. It's that easy.
Are all of the benefits provided by ISS?
No. ISS has teamed up with several vendor partners to provide products and services commonly used by self-storage owners and managers. At this time, the membership program includes a wealth of marketing and staffing products and services provided by Michaels Wilder, mystery-shopping services provided by A Top Shop!, and insurance resources and discounts provided by Universal Insurance Facilities Ltd. More vendor offerings will be added throughout the year.
How much does ISS Membership cost, and how often do I have to renew?
ISS Membership renews annually. The cost is $195 for Basic, $325 for Manager Plus and $495 for Owner Advantage. The value of these packages far exceeds their cost, by hundreds and even thousands of dollars.

Menifee Planning Commissioner Don Vesey has resigned from the panel, thus giving Councilman-elect Tom Fuhrman one of his first official duties in naming a successor.
Vesey said that, since he was recommended to the Planning Commission by outgoing Councilman Scott Mann, he thought it would be appropriate to step down and allow Fuhrman to make his own choice about who should serve on the planning board. Fuhrman defeated Mann in the Nov. 2 City Council election.
Fuhrman said recently he had some people in mind for the vacant seat, but had not yet decided. He won't be sworn onto the City Council until Dec. 7.
Vesey was on the city's original Planning Commission appointed in June 2009. In his farewell at his last commission meeting Tuesday, he thanked the city's staff and his colleagues on the board and promised he'd stay in touch.
"You'll probably see me (in the audience) at various times and I won't forget any of you," Vesey said.

Coogan sweeps the board
Steve Coogan: The Man Who Thinks He's It
Steve Coogan, the man behind Alan Partridge and Paul Calf, has clinched three accolades at the 1998 Comedy Awards.
The comic, famous for his outlandish characters - including lager-swilling Paul Calf and Latin lothario Tony Ferrino - scooped three awards at the star-studded event.
Coogan was named Top Television Comedy Actor, surprising critics who expected the award to go to nominated Father Ted star Dermot Morgan who died earlier this year.
The impressionist's most infamous persona as a smarmy chat show host won him Best TV Sitcom for his hit show I'm Alan Partridge.
The 32-year-old king of parody has recently taken the West End by storm with his show, The Man Who Thinks He's It, breaking box office records at the Lyceum Theatre.
Comedy writer Frank Muir, who died in January this year, was honoured at the event with co-writer Denis Norden.
The pair were awarded the Writers' Guild of Great Britain Lifetime Achievement.
At the live ceremony at London's Television Centre hosted by Jonathan Ross, actress Dame Thora Hird was given the Lifetime Achievement Award for Comedy.
The 87-year-old has starred in the Last of the Summer Wine and more recently in BBC1's sitcom Dinner Ladies.
Tommy Tiernan was named Top Stand-Up Comedian while Dylan Moran was named Top Television Newcomer.
Michael Barrymore added yet another award to his mantelpiece by winning Top ITV Personality while Harry Enfield beat Lily Savage and Ruby Wax to scoop Top BBC1 Comedy Personality.
The rest of the award winners were as follows:
