Originally published Aug. 1, 1990, this piece is a favourite of the first Facts & Arguments editor Philip Jackman: "To me, this was the first classic Facts & Arguments essay as we have come to know it. It was a moving personal portrait of the author's immigrant Italian father and his cherished fig tree, which had been brought to Canada as a sapling from the Calabrian hills. It is a poignant reflection on new beginnings, nurturing your old roots, the passages of life and the inevitable passage of time."
In my father's backyard, in the heart of what used to be Little Italy but is fast becoming yet another enclave of Toronto yuppydom, there is a fig tree. As fig trees go, it is a scraggly little thing with a kind of forlorn theatricality that would make it a suitable stage piece for Beckett's Waiting for Godot. But when you consider that the species was not meant by its creator to live north of, say, the 35th parallel, its paltry appearance is a sign of its endurance, and like Beckett's tramps, the little tree seems go on with a kind of hope-against-hope response to its absurd position in a climate that is, to put it mildly, hardly conducive to its health.
I like to think of it as a conscious display of the desire to survive against overwhelming odds, if only to reward my father's obsessive care, sustained by his soul's need to surround itself with a vestige from the Garden of Eden of his youth in the Calabrian hills.

Brought here from Southern Italy as a young sapling, the fig tree, like its immigrant caretaker, survived the violent uprooting and thrives in its new home, a large wooden half-barrel, of the kind that is used by wine makers. To prevent its freezing to death, it has spent the past three winters buried under four inches of soil.
Shortly after Victoria day my father unearthes it and within days, like the Phoenix of the storytellers, it is magically reborn, its leaves luxuriating in the northern sun; the Mediterranean homeland but a distant memory, an indelible genetic imprint. It's as though my father and the little tree have agreed upon an ecological covenant and both struggle to live up to its terms, practical concerns being merely secondary to the tree's great symbolic value as messenger across time and geography.
It's a tough bargain for the little tree to live up to, but it seems to have managed bravely for the past four years. This summer it bore an appropriately abundant crop of figs, about a baker's dozen. My father was thrilled and understands this to be nothing short of a renewable miraculous event; for him clear evidence of the providential bursting forth of the Great Chain of Being (my words, his reality).
For his part, he tends to the tree's needs, checking the soil moisture, the lustre on its large three-pronged drooping leaves, turning each one over to check for parasites in a daily ritual that never fails to light up his whole face. In their silent dialogue, my father and his tree speak of a distant homeland, a world disrupted by large-scale emigration, a pre- industrial, agricultural time in which the movement of the sun and moon in the sky and the ebb and flow of the seasons set clear parameters for the life of the senses and the soul.
At a recent Sunday brunch my father wanted to share the crop with his grandchildren. And so, consummate storyteller that he is, he told a tale about the joy of Calabrian children in the early summer when they are abundantly rewarded by the first crop of delicious figs. A joy that cannot ever be matched, he says, by a sort hop to the local Miracle mart just beyond Euclid Ave. My children loved the story but didn't care much for the figs. After all, they did not come wrapped in glitzy foil with surprise stickers of Dick Tracy stuffed in them. My father smiled his sad smile and made his usual comment about the modern world having lost the sense of the miraculous.
In downtown Toronto figs are becoming available almost year-round, as are other exotic fruits, in markets that bear little relationship to the cycle of the seasons. In the consumer utopia of post-agricultural Toronto, seasonal restraint on cravings of any sort is seen as a limitation on personal freedom. Yuppie children, mine among them, do not have to wait for the arrival of summer to titillate their palates with the exotic sensuality of figs.
But if a delicacy is available year-round and within easy reach of the local supermarket (now, even on Sundays), is it still a delicacy? My father, citing such ancient wisdom as life's blessings being more enjoyable when they are "the fruit of thy labor" doesn't think so. But then, unlike his Canadian grandchildren, he does not crave instant gratification, and is happy to live within the cycle of nature. And although his figs are as scrawny as the tree that bears them, to him they definitely do taste better than the ones from the local supermarket. They are a true delicacy, and the fruit of his labor. In any case, they speak in a silent language of a time in which soul and landscape, man and tree lived together in the same mythical dwelling with no consumer utopia to act as mediator between them.
As a child growing up in the Calabrian hills I too remember the miraculous taste of figs ripened on my favorite tree. The scraggly relative making its home in my father's backyard pales in comparison, but its symbolic value is far greater. My father's ecological covenant with the fig tree conceals in its core the kernel of a social contract with my children. And although they do not now realize it, the memory of their grandfather's little tree will one day be central to their own dialogue with a part of themselves that yearns to live in harmony with the movement of the sun and the moon, and the eternal recurrence of the seasons.
As the northern winds will portend the onset of winter my father will once again bury the fig tree. Then he will wait. Spring will return, as it must, and his silent dialogue with a distant homeland, a place and time that are no more, will start again.

Heat safety a concern for student athletes
Mon, 23 Aug 2010 22:55:56 GMT —
Deep passes. Long runs. Big stops.
The high school football season kicks off this Friday.
But a summer of sweltering heat has forced coaches to spend much of their time not drawing up plays, but defending their players from the high temperatures.
"We're about the safety of our student athletes," said Johnny Seabrooks, Dougherty County Athletic Director. "What the heat policy does is gives us a guideline so the coaches know when it's safe to practice and when it's not safe."
Especially when you add the extra weight of full pads.
The Dougherty County School System follows strict guidelines when it comes to protecting all of its students.
"Everybody in our system knows where we are," said Seabrooks. "It's not having one policy for band and one policy for â" but all outside activities."
"We have a water break every 15 minutes to make sure the guys are hydrated and even if they had that water during that 15 minute break time we'll continuously give them water throughout practice," said Felton Williams, an assistant coach for Albany High School's football team.
Coaches and school officials use a device called a psychrometer that measures the heat index. If the reading is too high, practices are postponed or canceled.
Despite the interference with the teams' schedule, Coach Williams says it's better to be safe than sorry.
"It's a policy I support wholeheartedly because it makes sure that no one child is put in harm's way," said Williams.

Labradoodle & Goldendoodle Forum
I've read enough to expect our puppy to go through the dreaded landshark phase, but didn't expect it to start so soon. We just brought her home on Saturday, and it seems as soon as she started to settle in and feel comfortable, those sharp little teeth came out. Now she has multiple daily spells where she is nipping at whatever she can reach, including clothing, fingers, hair, and ears. I've read many discussion threads here on Doodle Kisses on how to handle that; I was just wondering if anyone has any recommendations on good chew toys with which to distract the adorable little biting monster.
Views: 435
Bully sticks!
Oh, how I remember those days! Winnie was so terribly nippy for about the first 4 months that we had her-I seriously thought I was going to go insane. We gave Winnie bully sticks, too, but found that chewing on them too frequently caused loose stools. A rope toy was my 'go to' distraction. I literally carried it around in my pocket at all times. The second she started nipping at my pantlegs, skirt, nightgown, etc. (etc. etc. !!) I would whip out the rope toy. It also worked as a great distraction when brushing her.
Good luck!
Lincoln is now 2, but I remember well those nippy crazy times! He still has his crazy hour after dinner.
Nylabones have some good chew toys, some are for puppies and are softer. But they can't eat them. We also found an antler . Just be careful they are hard. another thing we found was plain old ice cubes. We would give him 1 and he would play with it and then chew it. Sometimes it took 2-3. Just remember the "nippys" do go away
Thanks for all the great suggestions! We have not tried bully sticks yet, I'll have to look for those. I also think a toy (like the rope toy) that she only gets when she needs distraction might be worth trying. We do have a few nylabones, but she hasn't shown much interest in them yet. I'll have to give ice cubes a try, I never would've thought of that. And also an antler sounds like it is worth trying as well.
Great information; thanks so much! Off to check out that website....
Did you buy bully sticks that are supposed to be odor free? I ordered from the same place Karen C recommended above (bestbullystick.com), and I haven't had any problems with stinkiness. the bully sticks have been great for when she really wants to gnaw on something, because she is not so much into the nylabones.
We use the three strike rule - if we are playing and he gets mouthy, the first time we distract with a toy. Second time, we get up, walk away and ignore him for at least 5 minutes. Third time, he gets a time out in isolation. If he does it when he gets out of isolation, he goes back into time out, for a a bit longer. He doesn't get to come out of time out until he's quiet. Usually it only takes about 2 minutes, and he comes out calm and doesn't repeat the behavior.
If we weren't playing with him, and he just comes up and does it, it's an immediate time out.
It works wonders. We rarely have to use it anymore. Dante is 3 month old.
Thanks for sharing; I like this approach. Most of the time we can distract her with a toy, but sometimes she gets in kamikaze mode and launches a surprise attack on the closest leg. We have put her in time out a few times already, and it did help.
Ice cubes were what we used to survive. It got to the point that if anyone got ice out of the fridge she was right there for hers too. lol Luckily this stage doesn't last forever. lol
Zoey has been teething since day one.
Bully sticks, baby carrots, and rope toys all help.

"The team at Irwin Mitchell has a 'pre-eminent reputation' for travel personal injury work"
Legal 500 (2016)
Irwin Mitchell has received unfortunate reports of illness amongst wedding guests, including the bride, after staying at the Lazaat Hotel, in Cottingham, Yorkshire, England during July 2011.
It is reported that the hotel was catering for approximately forty guests during a wedding celebration and that approximately ten of the guests, including the bride, all suffered from symptoms of gastric illness after eating food provided by the hotel. It is reported that the hotel have launched an investigation into the cause of the illness, however, given the number of guests who fell ill, it would indicate the illness was food related.
If you also travelled to this hotel and suffered from gastric illness, Irwin Mitchell would like to hear from you as you may be able to claim for your ruined holiday, and also, the pain and suffering caused by the illness that you sustained.
For more advice on making a holiday illness claim, contact Irwin Mitchell on 0800 056 0066 or complete our enquiry form and we will call you back.

"We were very happy with the outcome of our case, especially as we were initially offered nothing from the Tour Operator. Irwin Mitchell were very professional throughout and we are very happy with the outcome."

It is amazing how many times I have said I will get around to it. I remember as a child my mother had a wooden nickel that actually said "A Round Toit" on the face. Boy, do I wish I had one of those now. It has been months since I got around to writing my blog. The only excuse I have is life got in my way……my daughter had a bilateral mastectomy (I will blog about that one of these days or should I say when I get a round to it!) After my daughter was feeling better-other family members were ill and needed my assistance so that took away the time I would spend blogging. Life seems to be getting back on track. So I will try to blog a couple of times a month. To those of you who actually emailed, asking where I have been, Thank you! I am back and in the next week or 2, I will sit down and compile some of the silly things my daughter thought of while she was preparing for and recovering from this major surgery, I may even write about our puppy Scally and her brother Charlie and then a little something about family business, furs and consignment shops.
Until I write again: Happy Spring

Nancy Knapp Schilke, NASCAR correspondent
Kasey Kahne grabbed the pole for this weekend's NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race on the short track in Martinsville, Virginia. Kahne handled the 0.526-mile oval in his #5 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet with a time of 19.496 for a speed of 97.128, beating Kevin Harvick by 0.016 seconds.
"It was a really solid lap. The team did a good job yesterday," commented Kahne. "We didn't have the most speed yesterday but I felt like the car was balanced really well. I felt pretty stable going around the track. It was the same in qualifying today. It was a good lap. First pole here for myself."
Kahne spoke about the Martinsville track plus his desire to score his first victory with his new team. "It's a tough track to qualify. It's a tough track to race, always has been one of my tougher ones over the years. I'm glad we can start up front and have a great pit stall in that number one stall. I think that helps throughout the whole race with track position. Hopefully we will have a solid day tomorrow. That is what we need to do. We have had great Friday and Saturday's and just haven't put together a Sunday yet. Hopefully tomorrow will be a nice start to a really good season."
They have put a lot of effort into it and it pays off.
Second fastest in qualifying at Martinsville Speedway was Harvick in his #29 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet. His time of 97.048 (97.048 mph) landed Harvick on the front row for Sunday's race. Said Harvick, "We were a little bit too loose. All in all, the car turned really well and that is really what we've been fighting so we fixed that problem. I don't believe that I had to let out of the gas much but it was still spinning the tires."
Harvick took the win last year and hopes to drive to Victory Circle tomorrow. "It's been a great start to the season as far as the speed in the cars, qualifying, we have raced well at different types of race tracks so its been good and has made our jobs a lot easier on Sunday to have better pit stalls and as far as calling the races from the front of the field instead of trying to gamble in the middle of the field. They have put a lot of effort into it and it pays off," he said. Harvick is currently second in the 2012 points.
Placing his #11 Joe Gibbs Racing Toyota third fastest in qualifying was Denny Hamlin with a 19.521 (97.003 mph). Also on the second row, Clint Bowyer clocked an identical time of 19.521 (97.003 mph) for the fourth spot on the grid in his #12 Michael Waltrip Racing Toyota.
"Third starting spot is good for us. We didn't really show a lot of good qualifying speed or really front end speed of a long run yesterday. That's good for us to be that close and after only a couple laps. I feel like once the race gets into a groove and gets going -- things get strung out, I think we'll be pretty good," said Hamlin who added, "Yesterday we were going back and forth with a couple different setups. We feel like the Chase race here is the most important race versus this one. We're going with a little bit more of an experimental setup this time around and see how it goes. If it doesn't work then we'll just go back to our old stuff when we get back here in October. We feel like we have a good package. We didn't show the practice power that we usually do here and so it forced us to make a few changes. I feel like they obviously, even in qualifying, have been for the better."
Bowyer admitted he was surprised by his qualifying position, and he said, "It didn't feel all that good really. Our 5-hour ENERGY Toyota has had good speed in it since it's been here. That's a good start. I lost a little bit of grip up off -- kind of typical Martinsville deal. Got greedy getting in the gas, kind of shoved a little bit and I think we just ran out of real estate and it jumped sideways and you lose that momentum up off. It is what it is and we'll go after them in the race."
Ryan Newman ended fifth in qualifying, laying down a time of 96.988 (19.524 mph) in his #39 Stewart-Haas Chevrolet. He commented, "I had a good first lap, but I didn't think that it was as good as it could be. So I tried to shine everything up, and I kind of overachieved and ended up getting loose in three and four. But we'll take fifth."
Not being outdone, Toyota driver for RK Motors handed the manufacturer its third car in the top six also. Brian Vickers clocked a 96.988 (19.524 mph) and after his qualifying run, he said, "It was good. I got a little greedy out of turn four and just got too much throttle and spun the tires. This was a really good effort by the guys and I'm really proud to have RK Motors on the car this week. I love the racing here at Martinsville."
The top Dodge belonged to Penske Racing's Brad Keselowski in seventh. Kyle Busch will slot eighth on the grid followed by Jeff Gordon and Joey Logano.

Special to The Washington Post
Sunday, February 28, 2010;
Who: Jill Ward, 29, of Germantown and Bill McCarthy, 28, of Atlantic Highlands, N.J.
Where: San Diego
Why: A reward for Ward's just-earned MBA and her new job
When: Three nights/four days in late March/early April
Budget: $1,000
"I would like the trip to be a blend of lazy beach days, exploring the local scene (food, day trips, music, etc.) and one nice evening out! $1,000 is the goal, understanding that a bit more might be necessary: I'm a savvy traveler, and I like the challenge. Also, I will be a recent MBA graduate with a small budget but a major need for a getaway."
San Diego offers a nice combination of natural beauty and urban vibrancy. Throw in Southern California's extensive menu of outdoor activities, and it's the perfect spot for the kind of rejuvenating getaway Jill Ward is looking for now that she has earned her MBA and landed a new job.
America's Finest City (San Diego's moniker) is not around the corner: A connecting flight will take at least seven hours. But with a vibe that's really different from anything in Florida or other warmer climes, it's worth the trip.
Success at hitting the $1,000 mark that Ward has budgeted for is contingent on airfare. Snag a $220 sale fare, and it will be doable, although very tight. Some strategies for nailing the cheap fare:
-- Stay as far away from Easter (April 4) as possible. Many K-12 schools are out the week before Easter, so planes are fuller, and flights are more expensive.
-- Take a connecting flight. A nonstop fare to San Diego will cost at least $100 more.
-- Don't fly on a Friday or a Sunday, when fares are typically more expensive.
-- Sign up as soon as possible for fare notifications at sites such as Airfarewatchdog.com, Kayak.com, Bing.com/travel and Yapta.com. Buy as soon as a low fare hits.
-- Check Southwest.com separately for fares out of BWI. The airline's sale fares don't show up on most third-party booking sites.
-- Look for sale fares on JetBlue nonstop flights from Washington Dulles to Long Beach, Calif. It's a two-hour drive from there to San Diego, but with a nonstop flight, the travel time will be similar.
-- Be prepared to pay a few dollars extra for an early flight to San Diego to maximize your vacation time. A 6 a.m. flight with an hour-long layover should get into San Diego by 11 a.m. (The three-hour time difference is a good thing on the way out.)
Once the airfare goal is met, finding a rental car and a cheap, decent and well-located place to stay are the next hurdles.
A car is a must, as San Diego's mass transit is limited. Rental cars in San Diego are a good deal, running less than $100 including taxes for an economy car for three days. (Hotwire.com offers good rates.)
The San Diego region has many cheap chain hotels, with rates starting at $50 a night, especially in outlying cities, such as El Cajon and Chula Vista. But I'd opt for eating ramen noodles and spending the money on more centrally located accommodations.
Some of the least expensive hotels closer to the beaches and downtown San Diego are in the Hotel Circle area of Mission Valley. They include the Days Hotel (http://www.dayshotelhc.com), where three nights in late March will run about $219, including taxes. Rooms come equipped with a mini refrigerator, microwave and coffee maker, necessary items for keeping food costs down. Hotels with decent reviews located closer to the water and/or downtown are going to cost at least $100 more for three nights.
Consider renting a condo directly from an owner. While typically a bit more expensive than a hotel room, condos come with full kitchens where you could cook meals, so the total cost could wind up cheaper. For example, I found a one-bedroom in San Diego's North Park neighborhood, within walking distance of Balboa Park, for $85 a night (plus 10.5 percent taxes) at http://www.vrbo.com. Other sites to explore include http://www.homeaway.com and http://www.vacationrentals.com. Make sure the owner details all fees: An $80 cleaning bill, for example, may put you over budget.
Food will have to take a back seat to stay within budget, but excellent cheap eats include the Rubicon Deli in Mission Beach, Hodad's Burgers in Ocean Beach, the Mission in North Park and any Los Panchos Taco Shop. For the big night out, start with a fancy drink at Bertrand at Mr. A's (http://www.bertrandatmisteras.com), which offers fantastic views, and then head across the street to Cucina Urbana (http://www.sdurbankitchen.com/cucina-urbana.html), where a very nice meal for two can be had for $30. Afterward, take a walk through downtown San Diego's Gaslamp Quarter (http://www.gaslamp.org), which offers scores of clubs and bars.
Now for the daytime fun, which has to be either free or cheap -- not a problem in San Diego. It may be a bit chilly for lazing on the beach: The average high is 66 degrees in March, and the water temperatures are in the high 50s. Here are just a few ideas (go to http://www.sandiego.org for more):
-- Take a jog or a walk along the downtown San Diego waterfront, which passes in front of Seaport Village, a fun shopping area, and the convention center. Just watching the incredible yachts is entertainment.
-- Spend a day wandering around Balboa Park (http://www.balboapark.org). Museums aren't free, but there's no charge for looking at the lovely foliage and exploring the hiking trails. Pay for the San Diego Zoo (http://www.sandiegozoo.org): A one-day pass is $37, but it's worth it.
-- Rent a bike and spend at least half a day riding from Pacific Beach to Mission Beach to Mission Bay. Cost will be about $10 a person, but biking is a neat way to see the entire beach area.
-- Go to Torrey Pines State Natural Reserve (http://www.torreypine.org), a wilderness area along the coast between La Jolla and Del Mar. It's $10 to park, but guided nature hikes, offered weekends and holidays at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m., are free. Or just pack a picnic and watch the hang gliders.
-- Spend a day in La Jolla. Watch the divers in the cove and the sea lions lazing on the beach. Splurge with a drink at Georges at the Cove (http://www.georgesatthecove.com).

Skip to comments.Palin returns fire on Newsweek for calling Obama critics dumb (Hits Trig Truther Sullivan)
Posted on 01/17/2012 12:46:13 PM PST by nhwingut
Newsweek accomplished at least one thing by running a cover story calling the countrys critics of President Obama dumb they awoke the mama grizzly.
Directing her message to @Newsweek, Palin wrote, Know whats truly dumb? Giving a cover story to the TrigTruther conspiracy kook writer who thinks I didnt give birth to my son.
(Excerpt) Read more at dailycaller.com ...
She has every right int he world to condemn them.
She has every right in the world to condemn them.
Know what's really dumb? Being a Newsweek reader.
Know what's even dumber? Being a Newsweek subscriber.
No one reads NewsWEAK..that "magazine" has been far left trash for years.
I thought they went bankrupt....!!! Oh well, one can always wish...!
When your only remaining sales venue is the supermarket check-out line, you need some stupidly provocative headline to compete with the Globe and Enquirer.
Yup. Andrew Sullivan is Trig Truther scum. I'm glad she smacked Newsweek for giving him the spotlight.
The photography is of average quality on a good day.
The writing and cartoons are a hideous combination of lies, half-truths, and distortions of the truth.
The paper is stiff, glossy, and not absorbent.
The entire "Newsweak" "orgainization" was a bunch of reprehensible hacks, and when sold for $1, was an incredible rip-off!
Not even good enough to wrap the fish in.
Newsweak was sold for $1. The buyer paid too much.
"Know whats really dumb? Being a Newsweek reader."
They don't have any.
The story was a desperate attempt to get people to read a story.
Newsweek has a short time left.
If it wasn't for my dentist's office I wouldn't have any idea the rag was still around.
I still see that as a criminal deal that prevented stock holders from recouping as much as possible because they didn't want a conservative to buy it.
newsWEAK delivers its weekly version of pravda-like propoganda for their dear reader.
Dogs and cats refuse to crap on it, fish come back to life and jump out of it when used as fish wrap.
Newsweak. Offensive across the board.
Amen to Sarah Palin. And let's remember. Newsweek is now run by the famously incomeptent Tina Brown. The same Tina Brown who has left a trail of insolvent business ventures behind her: Vanity Fair, The New Yorker, her own MSNBC Show, and looks well on her way to sending Newsweek to it's final resting place too. She's an idiotic socialite who wouldn't know how to run a neighborhood lemonade stand - which is exactly why she's adored by leftists. She's incompetent and famous, just what they'd all like to be.

Senators: Pipeline health impacts unclear
Thu., Feb. 27, 2014
WASHINGTON – Saying the health impact of the proposed Keystone XL Pipeline hasn't been properly explored, two Democratic senators on Wednesday called on the Obama administration to conduct a comprehensive study on the human health impacts of tar sands and the proposed pipeline.
Calling a recent State Department study of the proposed pipeline's environmental impact "woefully inadequate," California Sen. Barbara Boxer, the chairwoman of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works, pointed to what she said were health problems that surrounded the extraction of crude from oil sands.
The Keystone project would bring crude from the Canadian oil sands to U.S. refineries on the Gulf Coast. Much of the debate on the project has dealt with the broad environmental impact and on its release of planet-warming gases compared with those released by conventional sources of oil.
Boxer's letter was co-signed by Rhode Island Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse.

Forehead cooling activates the sympathetic nervous system and can trigger angina pectoris in susceptible individuals. However, the effect of forehead cooling on coronary blood flow velocity (CBV) is not well understood. In this human experiment, we tested the hypotheses 1) that forehead cooling reduces CBV (i.e., coronary vasoconstriction); and 2) this vasoconstrictor effect would be enhanced under systemic beta-adrenergic blockade. A total of 30 healthy subjects (age range 23-79 years) underwent Doppler echocardiography evaluation of CBV in response to 60 seconds of forehead cooling (1°C ice bag on forehead). A subset of subjects (n = 10) also underwent the procedures following an intravenous infusion of propranolol. Rate pressure product (RPP) was used as an index of myocardial oxygen demand. Consistent with our first hypothesis, forehead cooling reduced CBV from 19.5 ± 0.7 to 17.5 ± 0.8 cm/sec (P < 0.001) while MAP increased by 11 ± 2 mmHg (P < 0.001). Consistent with our second hypothesis, forehead cooling reduced CBV under propranolol despite a significant rise in RPP. The current studies indicate that forehead cooling elicits a sympathetically-mediated pressor response and a reduction in CBV and this effect is augmented under beta-blockade. The results are consistent with sympathetic activation of beta-receptor coronary vasodilation in humans, as has been demonstrated in animals.

As a business owner, you likely have one main objective–to sell your product. Of course, you want to provide good customer service and to have satisfied clients. You probably also hope that your employees will enjoy their jobs, do good work, and consider you a reasonable boss.
However, if you're looking to increase your bottom line, there are several steps you can take:
1. Raise the price of your product. As inflation increases, it is reasonable to raise the price of your product. If it is not a significant increase, most consumers won't object. You probably don't want to do this frequently, but when it is warranted, raising the price is a good way to generate extra income.
2. Reduce the cost of manufacturing. Reducing the cost of manufacturing without lowering quality is also a possible option. Many companies choose to move their manufacturing overseas where labor is cheaper, but business owner Jamey Bennett told USA Today that he moved his manufacturing back to the states because of too many headaches including middle of the night conference calls when his product was manufactured overseas.
3. Reduce the cost of routine expenses. People tend to set up their utilities and not think about them again. The same can be true for your business. When was the last time you compared rates on phone and Internet service? Take the time to compare business electricity prices at Make It Cheaper. You may be surprised that you can find lower rates now compared to what was the best price when you first signed up for service.
4. Outsource some tasks. There may also be some tasks that you can outsource that will free up your employees to do more important work that can help your bottom line. While you don't want to outsource all tasks, outsourcing some can pad your bottom line because you may be able to pay a lower hourly wage and not have to cover insurance, which can be costly.
There are many ways that business owners can improve their bottom line from increasing the price of their product to reducing manufacturing and everyday expenses. The key is to keep exploring what options are available to you and to do this yearly.

Dear St. Raphael School Families and Friends,
For the past few years, SciTrek from USCB has been coming to our school to work with our 3rd, 4th, 5th 7th and 8th graders. This week they are coming back to campus for round two with some of our students. SciTrek is dedicated to students experiencing the scientific process firsthand. They partner with local schools to present inquiry-based modules that not only emphasize the process of science, but also specific grade-level standards. Each module allows students to design and carry out an experiment. Providing students with the opportunity to not only learn scientific facts, but also experience the scientific method, allows students to understand how scientists use evidence-based explanations to explain the world around them. The volunteers from UCSB shared that St. Raphael School is their favorite school to work with because the students are polite, kind, well behaved and SMART! It's always a true joy to hear this about our students, especially from people outside the school community.
Our 29th annual auction is right around the corner, so get ready to do the salsa for the "Havana Nights." The auction committee has been working diligently to prepare for this event. Please remember to check the auction news in the Tuesday Folder to purchase your tickets as well as make your family donation. The Golden Ticket is now available! For the past three years, we have sold $25 raffle tickets for a grand prize raffle award of one year's tuition paid. Tickets are available in the school office -- get yours today! The auction is on Saturday, February 25th at the Fess Parker Doubletree Resort. Our school auction is always a fun-filled evening.
Catholic Schools Week is January 29 – February 4. Our schools throughout the United States celebrate the uniqueness of these wonderful institutions. On Monday, January 30, we will have a school assembly on water and the importance of drinking water. Tuesday, there will be another special assembly for our students at 1:00 pm. Wednesday, our 2nd graders will show off their new bike skills after a bike ride with Safe Routes to School. On Thursday, February 2nd, we will have annual Mass at Bishop Diego High School. All of the Catholic school students in Santa Barbara will celebrate Mass with many of our priests from our local parishes. We look forward to this wonderful opportunity and are so blessed to have this special school community gathering.
Important Dates:January 17-27: STAR Testing WindowJanuary 28: School Clean-Up DayJanuary 29-February 3: Catholic Schools WeekFebruary 20: No School for Presidents' DayFebruary 25: School Auction at Fess ParkerFebruary 27: KinderKlasse and Kindergarten Evaluations for 2017-2018 School YearMarch 1: Ash Wednesday. School Mass at 10:00 am
In Mary's Love,
Ms. Michelle Limb, Principal
Prayer for Catholic Schools O Christ, our Teacher, You invite Your faithful people to make disciples in Your name and to announce good news to the poor. We thank You for the gift of Catholic schools, where the message of Your life, death, and resurrection is proclaimed, Christian community is experienced, service to our brothers and sisters is modeled, and worship of You is cultivated.
Increase our zeal for ensuring that all children and families can benefit from a high quality Catholic education, and that Catholic schools grow in their ability to nurture the soul of our nation. We ask this through the intercession of Our Lady, Mother of Catholic Schools. Amen.
St. Raphael, Pray for Us!

Torch-lit far-right vigil held in Wunsiedel, Germany
COURTESY: RT's RUPTLY video agency, NO RE-UPLOAD, NO REUSE - FOR LICENSING, PLEASE, CONTACT http://ruptly.tv
The far-right group "Der Dritte Weg" held a torch-lit vigil in the Bavarian town of Wunsiedel to commemorate German soldiers who lost their lives in World War II. About 280 people held torches and waved black flags related to the Third Reich, in order to show their support for National Socialism.
The vigil is celebrated every year under the slogan "Dead are only those who are forgotten!" The annual vigils have come under heavy criticism from anti-fascist groups and have been met with a string of counter demonstrations.

KGU becomes first private university in Japan to enter an internship agreement with the United Nations Population Fund
On January 25, at the Station Conference Tokyo event facility in Chiyoda, Tokyo, Kwansei Gakuin University signed an internship agreement with the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA; Director of Tokyo Office: Junko Sazaki). KGU is only the third Japanese university and the first private university in Japan to enter such an agreement.
As part of the Japanese government's Top Global University project, KGU will introduce a "United Nations/Diplomacy" graduate minor next April. Under the terms of the new agreement, the UNFPA will be one of the organizations hosting students for global internships. KGU plans to send five students per year for internships of up to six months.
The relationship between KGU and the UNFPA began in the 2004 academic year, when KGU awarded an honorary degree to then-UNFPA Executive Director Thoraya Ahmed Obaid. The "Obaid Fund" established at that time was used to launch an internship program at the UNFPA Tokyo Office. A total of 24 students participated in the program over the following seven years.
At the signing ceremony for the agreement, University President Osamu Murata declared: "In this chaotic world, the role of the United Nations has increased and more Japanese UN staff is needed. I would like to work with the UNFPA to foster human resources that can play an active role at the UN and other international organizations." UNFPA Tokyo Director Sazaki added: "These internships will involve students in drafting projects and a wide range of other tasks. As they work with staff of diverse nationalities, they are sure to experience tremendous growth. Through this partnership with KGU, we hope to contribute to the development of Japanese global citizens."

text: Hello. My name is Justin and have been lurking in the forums for about a year. My first post and could use some advise from the more experienced wood burners. My original plan was to put a stove in my 1800 sq ft ranch (basement would be finished and insulated). After reading many troubles of this type of install (getting the heat upstairs) I'm thinking about buying a Blaze King Sirocco 20 or 30 and replacing a gas fireplace. I would have to tear out the fireplace and build an alcovE. Not sure why my font went crazy. Will respond to my post for more info. Sorry

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Big XII Conference' started by chuckd4735, Sep 20, 2011.
Source: Removal of Big 12 commissioner Dan Beebe among OU's demands | NewsOK.com
I am definitely ok with that.
If that's all it takes, do it! Hell, this should have been done a long time ago as far as I'm concerned.
Id like to see this happen. I want a proactive commish. Not one who sits back and waits for all his teams to be poached.
That's easy.
Sounds fine with me....how about they admit they were wrong about revenue sharing?
What's Delaney up to?!?
The only person against this should be Beebe himself
See ya.
If they held the Big 12 together, cranked the Longhorns down a notch and got rid of Beebe that would be the biggest coup since Creighton pay ISU to hire GMac.:yes::smile::spinny:
Let it be, oh please let it be.
If the Big 12 is going survive then it is going to be different then what it looks like now.
Not a problem, lets move on to item #2.
This kind of stuff needs to get said. 100% in support of what is being discussed here.
But let's not let the hypocrisy of NU and OU cloud the matter. They helped create this jacked up situation by voting with UT to screw the other schools when the conference was first set up. Now they whine when UT plays its hand.
No, I've heard Beebe wants Beebe ****-canned also.
They do have a point....
Theres no way DeLoss would let his lapdog get fired or leave...
Cue Rebecacy: "I told you so..."
Would we lose out on Fake Dan Beebe though?

Researcher: Rahul Telang
Research Area: Privacy Protection
We intend to research the effects of security and privacy regulations on market outcomes. In recent years, the US federal government as well as many state governments have passed laws that hold firms responsible for security lapses that lead to breach of customer data, or cause damages to third parties. The purpose of these regulations is to force the firms to invest in better security and privacy practices and reduce the losses from malicious information intrusions.
However, many argue that regulations stifle innovation, increase the cost of business and reduce a firm's competitiveness. Alternative "light-handed"
mechanisms such as standards compliance or self-regulation have, therefore, been proposed. Some examples of these regulations include: US data breach disclosure laws, Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, and Sarbanes-Oxley.
Moreover, regulations are often passed without any empirical verification of their effects. The goal of this proposal is to provide rigorous empirical analysis of some of these regulations to assess their effectiveness.

Baby swings, Rock n Play sleepers, exersaucers, jumperoos, high chairs, bumbos, bouncy seats, pack n plays, boppys, strollers, etc etc....
Where is everyone keeping all of these things!! Kyah has accumulated so much baby gear! It is a hassle having to move things from one room to another just for it to get some use! I just don't have room for everything in one area!
Does your house look a lot like a daycare with all of that baby gear? Lol. I feel like mine does!

On Frog Design I found a very interesting discussion about the future of design. http://designmind.frogdesign.com/blog/the-end-of-an-era.html Interesting because it talks about both sides. Design is everything or everything is design and design was and will be only one part of the orchestra. And this piece has also gone its way of commoditization as engineering and other professions. Design Thinking was and […]

Profession vs. Skills
There are so many design definition discussions going on right now and to be honest all the time. Let's open up the focus a bit more. How about the definition of engineering, science, creative industry and all this stuff these days? Which kind of value do the old profession names have in times where designers […]
Humanize technology
Peter Drucker expressed an idea which I found quite shocking. "Technology is not nature, but humanity. It is not about tools: it is about how people work. It is equally about how they live and how they think. There is a saying of Alfred Russel Wallace, the co-discoverer – with Charles Darwin – of the […]

Since both my family and Brett's were in town for Brett's graduation, we decided to take advantage of the opportunity to share little bits of our beloved Charlottesville in a jam-packed "Best of Charlottesville" type weekend! On Saturday, we took both sets of parents and Brett's aunt to a few of our favorite vineyards, in spite of the drizzling weather. It was such a fun day of spending time with the people we love, and I'm so glad we got to share a few of our favorite wines from around here with our family! (These photos were taken at Pollak Vineyards and Veritas, both of which I'd highly recommend if you're ever in the area!

Land O'Frost Names David Van Eekeren Chief Executive Officer
Company Will Continue to Be Lead by Van Eekeren Family for Years to Come
Jan 03, 2011, 07:00 ET from Land O'Frost
LANSING, Ill., Jan. 3, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Land O'Frost, America's third-largest and fastest growing lunchmeat brand, today announced David Van Eekeren will become chief executive officer and president effective immediately. Donna Van Eekeren will continue to serve Land O'Frost in the role of executive chairman and shift her focus from day-to-day operations to long-term strategic planning for the company.
As chief executive officer, David is the family's third generation to lead the fifty two-year-old business. He has served as the company's president since 2008 and started working for Land O'Frost full-time in 1991 as a supervisor in the Searcy, Ark., manufacturing plant. Since then, he went on to work in practically every part of the company before assuming the role of executive vice president in 2005.
"Our management team has developed a comprehensive vision for the future and a strategy for the long-term growth of Land O'Frost. I strongly believe that the time has arrived for David to have the full authority to implement this vision for our future," said Donna Van Eekeren, executive chairman of Land O'Frost. "The knowledge and experience David has gained from years of working at Land O'Frost coupled with his proven talents as a leader, make him eminently qualified to fill the role of chief executive officer and president. This is a huge step toward keeping the Land O'Frost business in the family for the long-term."
Land O'Frost was founded by Antoon Van Eekeren, David's grandfather. David's father Paul Van Eekeren then ran the company until his death in 2001, when his wife Donna assumed her role as the company's chief executive officer.
"It is an honor to follow in the footsteps of my grandfather, father and mother by leading Land O'Frost," said David Van Eekeren, president and chief effective officer of Land O'Frost. "I look forward to continuing the long tradition of growth and innovation first established by my grandfather and built upon by my parents. I also feel very fortunate to be supported by the best management team in the industry and I greatly look forward to continuing to build and differentiate our brand for many years to come."
Van Eekeren earned a bachelor's degree in economics from the University of Kansas and an MBA in finance from Loyola University in Chicago. He is a member of the Leadership Council and a former board member at The Cancer Support Center, and a member of the Board of Governors at Olympia Fields Country Club. He is also active in supporting a number of other organizations in the Chicagoland community.

Southern Canada
At the junction of the Cassiar and Yellowhead highways is the small community of Kitwanga. I passed through in the evening and stopped for some pictures of their Anglican church and bell tower, which is neatly old:
Then it was east onto the Yellowhead highway. The Trans-Canada Highway is a highway system that runs east-west across the country. The Yellowhead is the northern part of the west half, and I've driven about a third of it, from Jasper to Kitwanga. It's still fairly remote, but it feels pretty populated once you get off the Cassiar. Anyway, evening clouds over the forest were cool:
As night fell, it started to snow - a lot. It was the heaviest snowstorm I've ever driven in. You couldn't see both the yellow center line and the white shoulder line at the same time, so I was going 15-20mph.
Made it to Prince George BC and turned south on the Cariboo Highway. This was originally a mule trail for gold field access, and towns along the route (like '70 Mile House', '100 Mile House') are named for old stagecoach stops. I like this part of BC, it's open, relaxed, and underpopulated. It feels 'western' in the cowboy sense, but more genuine about it than the classic 'cowboy' places in the US. The highway follows what I think is the Fraser river. I stopped next to it for a pee break and found a Bald Eagle giving me the stare from a nest:
A little later I passed a highway sign that said 'Chasm -> 3km' - okay. This was there:
Just before the town of Cache Creek I turned back west onto the 'Sea to Sky Highway', a slower but more scenic route south to Vancouver, and quickly came to Pavilion Lake:
There was a little cabin on that island:
The road passes through Fraser Canyon, a deep valley cut by the river, which has its own arid microclimate. Here's a wood fence leading out to the canyon:
The road then continues over the mountains, and is very twisty and pretty. It's what the 'Going to the Sun' Highway in Glacier National Park could be if it weren't for all the traffic. I'd like to spend more time at some of the parks through here. I didn't stop for any pictures. Arrived in Vancouver and crossed into the US an hour or so before sunset and set up camp. Continuing south next time.

Hello again. Well, the saga continues. I came to find out that, while, the solution being applied inside was Phantom, the stuff being used outside was not Termidor! Supposedly, it was "just as effective", and I gave the guy the benefit of the doubt. The first day after the application, it seemed to be doing the job - not one ant. However, the following morning, it rained for a couple of hours, and, that evening, they were back with a vengeance! I was furious, felt my trust had been betrayed, and said enough was e-freaking-nough, and applied Termidor myself. There has still been some activity - 8 alive in the house tonight, but that is a lot lower than the 30+ I was back to killing the other night. I only applied it to the foundation, and will go back and apply some a foot up on the outside walls tomorrow. And I plan to aggressively pursue some sort of discount from the pest control service; they do not charge extra for all of these special treatments, but I feel like I should be compensated in some way for essentially doing their job. Any additional advice you have would be much appreciated!

Most likely because the debt was sold. One collection company bought it from the original holder, tried to collect then sold it to another collection company to recoup some of their loss. The original collection company closed/removed it, then the new one bought it and opened it. That is my best guess.

stewart butterfield: don't ask him about the takeover :)
He is giving overview of Flickr.
His talk is on using websertvices as a strategy for a startup – open up and let go.
The Flickr API has 62 methods – atomic pieces of functionality.
They have found that in providing the API they have garnered a lot of trust from folks that would otherwise be nervous about giving important content to someone else (ie. photos).
Credibility particularly with the alpha geek community who have proven very influential, utililty, openness also meant that had to be more disciplined and of course it triggered a huge wave of creativity and created a massive community.
Downside: scalability issues – they lost control over the pace that things happened, they had to deal with other people's bugs (a big issue).
More subtle issues: privacy/copyright, more support costs, a bunch of business risks – forced to confront issues before they were necessarily ready.
eg. micampte.it, flickr postcards, flickrgraph, 43 things, flickr world map (allthegoodness.com), mappr.com,
4-5% of traffic is API traffic.
webservices for start-ups good but scary.

Etech is all about unreasonable expectations
Tim O'Reilly
What is on O'reilly's radar:
Design Patterns – Christopher Alexander
Design for participation – a succesfful open source software project consists of small peices loosely joined.
Therefore: architect your software or service in such a way as to be used easily as a componet of a larger system: keep it modular document your interfacesa and use a licence that doesn't hinder recombination.
USD : there is great benefit in sharing your dev efforts and pocesses with your users.
Syndicated e-commerce
on today's web, you no longer need to build or own all the components of your application.
eg. isbn.nu
therefore glue together the small pices of others
The perpetual betA
When devices and programs are connected to the internet, applications are not longer software artifacts, they're ongoing services.
therefore: don't pacikage up new freatues into monolithic releaseds. rather fold them in on regular. basis. eg. flickr, google etc
pn: definition of beta seems to be emerging – if being constantly mod then in beta
Teh key to comp adv in networded apps is the extent to which users augment your datw with their own.
therefore: architect for tparticaption beyond design and dev: invite your users. users add value to shared data.
eg. amazon – they are getting more and more distinctive as they encourage users to add more and more information to the available commodity data. In contrast to say Barnes and Nobles which does not.
eg. flickr – the users are building the flickr database (commodity data – PN)
only a small percentage of users will go to the trouble of explicitly adding value
therefore: make participation the defult, aggregating user data as a SIDE EFFECT of activity.
The long tail:
many of the limiting factors for distribution are absent on the internet. therefore the power of the computer to monetise niches formerly too small to be commercial. Eg. google adsense
software aboce the level of a singel device
the pc is not longer teh only access point for networked applications.
eg. isync allows you to have your data across all devices.
therefore do not design for a single device
social networking:
social networking are a by-product of social applications like email, IM, photosharing, even book buying
therefore: architect your app to capture and ashare the social fabric underlying your app.
eg. really simple chat
: etech.inroomchat.org/chatlogs
data is the next intel inside
(new conference: Where 2.0 june 29th San Fran)
packets and shipping containers
understand teh optimum packet size for our application domain and devise
o'reilly has re-packaged their books so that they are more web sized packages – eg. hackers series, Make etc
when content is digital it lends itself to being broken down and remixed.
therefore: build your businesss model so as to make your living from the smallest atomic unit.
eg. safari U
what else is on their radar?
ajax – asynch JS plus XML
eg. john odell – walking tour
hardware hacking – car pc hacks, networked objects, fabbing, make
Saul is going to talking about collaborative hardware hacking
ruby on rails http://www.rubyonrails.com
visualisation: showing vast amount of data flickr colour wheel, baby names
VOIP – skype, asterisk
People – the p in P2P is people

I experience childlike glee whenever someone mentions 3D printing and copying. This is entirely fueled by the desire to fabricate at will and the very optimistic hope that it is the precusor to the words "beam me up". So you can imagine my excitement when there are several foo sessions on the subject. Tim Anderson started this morning talking about his company Z Corp that builds 3D printers. Very cool.
However, arguably the most interesting idea was planted by Tim O'Reilly when he asked whether there was an open source community around the digital fabrication. I immediately imagined a world where the ability to fabricate a cup was dependent on your purchase of the fabrication template. In other words, things we take for granted as being in the public domain – ie. the basic notion of a cup becomes something that is licenced because the design is captured in a template.

Today Austria CC launches – http://www.creativecommons.at – I have spent a few days hanging out with the organisers of the Austrian effort. They have done a great job and it has been really interesting to see how the existance of CC is identified as being a key part of the network infrastructure required to develop open and/or free culture domains in Austria. Often, when I speak with CC folks they are very focused on individual artists, however it seems the institutional link has been made here very early. They already have one university that has incorporated CC as part of the student contract. This means that all student work is licenced under CC.
Interesting stats coming out the creative commons. It turns out that 95% of all licences types selected included attribution. In future, CC intend to make attribution a default feature of the licences.
Other new things coming out of CC include continuing development of the nutch based search engine and the development of a CC content wiki.
BBC just got a great plug for the creative archive project. This project is of enormous interest and gaining in profile across Europe.
