When Cole Davis founded Keystone RV in 1996 his vision was clear: Build a quality RV loaded with features priced thousands less than other RVs on the market. To accomplish his goal, Cole would recruit and build a strong team, focus on keeping overhead low, and empower the people closest to the customer to make decisions.
Within a few short months after opening the doors, Keystone produced its very first camper. Delivering big on quality, features and value, the public fell in love with it. A star was born! As the appetite for the camper increased, new Keystone models were added to satisfy growing customer demand. Along with this tremendous growth came the need for expanded production. To meet this need more manufacturing plants were built and staffed.
From new floor plan designs to patented inventions, Keystone leads the way in product innovation. One reason is our mission to stay close to the customer. When talking with campers or visiting dealerships, our sales, product development, and service teams, are always looking for ways to improve the camping experience. And we don't stop there.
Every member of the Keystone family is encouraged to contribute to making our campers absolutely the best possible. Through something we call Kamp Keystone, our employees camp free of charge at local campgrounds in the Keystone trailers we supply. Each year hundreds of our production workers, administrative staff and service team enjoy a day (or a week) at Kamp Keystone. Their evaluation of the experience and the feedback they provide results in continued product improvements. Ask us if we use our RVs...the answer is YES!

Mt. Rushmore Guards Their Souls...part 2
Our recent trip to the Black Hills of South Dakota took us on a side trip to find some old cemeteries that still exist today but were a large part of the early frontier days of the Black Hills. The second one we visited on this trip was the Mt. View Cemetery located in the active mining and now tourist town of Keystone, S. D. This cemetery, while quite small for the amount of years it has existed is probably one of the most unique that we have visited. The varied history of the community it serves gives this scenic little cemetery a proud and unique character, one which also by it's serene location seems to command one to view the final resting place of it's inhabitants with silence and reverence. Established long before the construction of nearby Mt. Rushmore, it is, none the less, protected by night and day as the granite stone "faces" of Mt. Rushmore stand guard over all the souls who are resting there. It is the only cemetery in the world with a view of Mt. Rushmore.
To imagine what the lives were like for many who are buried here, one must learn about the history of this unique area of the Black Hills. Mining in the area dates back to around 1876 with the discovery of placer gold along nearby Battle Creek. Several small settlements sprung up in the area until 1883 when the Harney Peak Hydraulic Gold Mining Company was organized to mine the area which was later to become known as Keystone. Also in 1883, the Etta Mine which was rich in mica was opened and soon the area began to produce tin oxide which was in great demand. The town was officially platted in 1891 and named after the Keystone Mine. In 1894 a rich ledge of gold producing quartz was discovered and named The Holy Terror mine after one of the miners wives! The Holy Terror mine became one of the richest gold producers in the country. Gold, mica, feldspar, tin oxide, quartz, many other minerals and even arsenic played rolls in the success and even the later failure of the economy. Early in 1900, the narrow guage railroad reached Keystone which encouraged further development of many of the mines and later was used to haul goods and equipment into Keystone to aid in the carving of Mt. Rushmore which was started in 1927. Many local men and miners were often employed in the construction of Mt. Rushmore as the wages were good in a time that mining had started to decline. During WWII, minerals from the mines near Keystone were in great demand and used in production of war goods.
Keystone had a varied and checkered past during the years of miners and saloons and the small community has seen many ups and downs since the turn of the twentieth century. Clashes over claims, serious mining accidents, several early fires which destroyed the town, and floods have claimed many lives in the area of Keystone. The devastating flood of 1972 destroyed again a large part of the business district which had been resurrected over the years to become a premier tourist area and also took out most of the original railroad tracks into the community. Loss of life in the Black Hills area was substantial and Keystone was hit hard..again.
Many times over the last century, the Keystone town and community has rebuilt- each time it has gotten bigger and better. The lumber industry, some mining, and most of all the tourists have kept this little city alive. As a kid who frequented Keystone in the 1950's and has visited many times over the years, I have watched the old town grow. Once it was a sleepy, small tourist town with wonderful little shops and now has grown all the way through the valley in all directions. Top name hotels now scavenge for land to build on, spreading into the small fingers of the valley. Beautiful eateries, shops and museums line the once again busy streets. The whistle of the 1880 Train can be heard through the valley as it stops close to the town of Keystone. The ever present Mt. Rushmore watches over the daily life.
All the while that the town of Keystone has lain beneath her, the Mountain view cemetery has taken in the inhabitants of this proud little town. An infant girl which was relocated from an old cemetery downstream was the first burial here in 1900. The older Harney Cemetery was abandoned and reclaimed by "Mother Nature".
Mountain View cemetery also is one which has seemed to reflect the history of the area with its often stylish old headstones... and beautiful handmade monuments. Several well known historical figures are interred there. Many more photos that we took in the cemetery can found here and they are as varied and unique as is the area's history.
The day we visited, we stood and marveled at the stone of Zeke Valdez, which is pictured above, it showed us that he was a worker on the construction of Mt. Rushmore. A week after our trip to Keystone was my 40th class reunion in Alliance, Nebraska. One of my classmates and friend who happens to live in Hill City, S. D. was attending with her husband. Oddly, we happened to start talking to them about our recent trip to the Hills and about visiting the old cemeteries. The stone of Zeke Valdez came up when I mentioned the unique engraving on it and it turns out that Zeke was the uncle of my friend's husband. His family has been in the Black Hills for generations and several of his relatives (including the Grover and Valdez names) are buried in the small cemetery at Keystone. How truly small this old world is! His family's pride will mark his uncle's resting place for eternity.
The little Mountain View cemetery high above Keystone is certainly a beautiful little known gem in the otherwise hurried and bustling tourist community in the Black Hills of South Dakota.

The Immokalee Indians will play for the 5A Florida state championship Saturday in the Citrus Bowl in Orlando. The game might draw some recruiters from USC.
The Gamecocks are going to try to become players with two of the top seniors on the team, DB Mackensie Alexander and DL Deadrin Senat. Both players have done little with their recruiting at this point because of their focus on the season.
Alexander has taken an official visit to Clemson. Texas A&M, Miami, Kentucky and Ole Miss were among the schools to scout the players last week. Mississippi State and Florida are also going hard after Alexander.
Senat is one of the top defensive linemen in the country and has offers from across the country including USC. He was committed to Florida State but backed off that in May. Florida State has remained high on his list.

England coach Roy Hodgson has said he believes new Manchester United signing Luke Shaw can be the new Ashley Cole.
- Shaw: I can handle United pressure
- Payne: A Shaw thing for Manchester United
Hodgson took Shaw, 18, to the World Cup in Brazil as understudy to Leighton Baines ahead of Cole, England's most-capped left-back.
And he believes the defender, who became the world's most expensive teenager when he moved to Old Trafford from Southampton for 27 million pounds, can reach the same heights as Cole, who ended his international career earlier this summer on 107 caps.
"I really do think Luke has got tremendous quality," he told the FA website. "I think he's really an Ashley Cole in the making."
Shaw won his fourth cap in the 0-0 draw against Costa Rica, becoming the second youngest footballer to play for England in the World Cup, and Hodgson said: "I think the experience will do him good.
"Also, I think he will be a very useful player for us in games where we can use the enormous power he has going forward.
"We agonised over those positions, especially in the case of Luke because it involved Ashley Cole, who all of us love to bits and think is a great footballer."

Guidance on ASHRAE Ventilation Standard
Spreadsheet, examples guide engineers through implementing ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2010.
The newest guidance for using Standard 62.1-2010 reportedly includes a revised, user-friendly spreadsheet and examples, as well as the latest updates pertaining to the new version of the standard.
The 62.1 User's Manual provides explanatory material, detailed information, figures and examples to guide users in designing, installing and operating buildings in accordance with ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2010, Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality, which sets minimum ventilation rates and other requirements for commercial and institutional buildings.
Also highlighted is the application of useful tools used for compliance with Standard 62.1-2010, including a newly revised spreadsheet that assists in Ventilation Rate Procedure calculations. The spreadsheet provides calculations for the multiple spaces procedure and has been significantly improved, made more user friendly and now includes two example spreadsheets focusing on cooling and heating.
"The spreadsheet and new examples have been revised in response to user feedback and have much improved usability," Roger Hedrick, chair of the Standard 62.1 committee, said. "The spreadsheet should significantly reduce the effort needed to perform the calculations needed for multizone recirculating systems. The spreadsheets are a must have for designers."
The Manual encourages users of the standard to apply the principles of good indoor air quality and effective ventilation when designing buildings and building systems, and provides useful reference material to assist designers in efficiently completing a successful and compliant design.
The cost of the 62.1 User's Manual is $75 ($64 ASHRAE members). To order the manual, contact ASHRAE Customer Service or visit the ASHRAE bookstore.

The name Labrouste is synonymous with two libraries in Paris, the Bibliothèque Sainte-Geneviève (1850) and the Bibliothèque Nationale de France (1868), both of which feature astonishing reading rooms created by the unprecedented meeting of an elegant cast-iron structure with an austere neo-classical masonry envelope. The current Museum of Modern Art exhibition, Henri Labrouste: Structure Brought to Light, offers detailed and original analysis of these two libraries, as well as fascinating material related to the architect's lesser-known works, most of which were never built. Organized in association with the Bibliothèque Nationale and originally mounted last year at the Cité de l'Architecture et du Patrimoine in Paris, the show is presented in New York by MoMA's Department of Architecture and Design under the direction of Barry Bergdoll. As with all of Bergdoll's exhibitions, it is grounded in the highest level of scholarship, but is also accessible to non-specialists, allowing us to see material we thought we knew in an entirely new light.
The initial question of appropriateness (is a show of architectural works dating back to the 1820s and 30s really "modern"?) is convincingly answered. The curators argue that the work of this nineteenth-century French master was a direct response to modern times, in particular his redefinition of the library as a form of democratic public space. The show promises and delivers an image of Labrouste as an "avant-garde" architect, a contemporary of Eugène Delacroix and Victor Hugo, "committed to experimentation and the creation of new forms for art in response to new social, economic, and cultural conditions." In this regard, it makes a provocative pairing with the exhibition 9 + 1 Ways of Being Political: 50 Years of Political Stances in Architecture and Urban Design in an adjacent gallery, which features neo-avant-garde works from the European revolutionary moment of the late 1960s and early 70s.

What goes into your mouth has a direct correlation to what your legs can put out.
The popular axiom, "if the furnace is hot enough, it'll burn anything" may be true to a certain degree, but competitive athletes are wise enough to acknowledge that what goes into their mouths has a direct correlation to what their legs can put out. Eating healthy at home is one thing, but going out to restaurants for a meal with friends is a part of life, too.
So how can the socially involved, real-word athlete dine out while still eating for performance? According to nutritionist Krista Austin Ph.D., it's a matter of reading between the lines of a restaurant's menu and taking into consideration where you are with your training. "Much of what an athlete should be looking for is dependent on the training session they completed that day," says Austin. "However, my policy is that at least once a week every athlete should have a 'fun meal' where they don't think too much about what they are eating and just enjoy fun food—the key is to watch the portion sizes."
RELATED: Is The Paleo Diet Right For Runners?
What's In A Plate?
An athlete's dietary requirements are quite different from that of the average person. "If it was a harder session, especially one that was longer in nature, they should focus on consuming a meal that contains starchy carbohydrates, say half the plate, that provide the calories they need to refuel and recover rather than ones that are not as energy dense such as vegetables and fruits; although every meal should contain these to some extent," explains Austin.
"Conversely, if it is an easier day, this should be switched and so forth. Easy days the plate might not even contain starchy carbohydrates, it may be shearly fruits and vegetables; a moderate day would have a plate be one-third starchy, one-third fruit and veggies and the remainder protein. Athletes should always remember to gauge their hunger to help control the volume of food that they eat; if you're hungry, eat; and as you get full, stop!"

Treasuries rose, pushing 10-year note yields to almost a four-month low, as a decline in stocks and commodities fueled demand for the safest assets.
Benchmark yields extended the drop after Bundesbank President Jens Weidman said the European Central Bank may cut interest rates if the economy warrants it. Treasuries have outperformed equities for the first time in five months on bets the Federal Reserve will maintain asset purchases and concern the global economy is slowing. A report tomorrow is forecast to show an index of leading indicators rose at a slower pace in March than the prior month. The U.S. will sell $18 billion of inflation-linked debt tomorrow.
"The volatility in non-rate products -- stocks and commodities -- has forced some money into Treasuries," said Ray Remy, head of fixed income in New York at Daiwa Capital Markets America Inc. "There's a lot of uncertainty going on. The next leg is to lower yields. Tens may go to 1.60"%.
The U.S. 10-year yield fell two basis points, or 0.02 percentage point, to 1.70% at 10:23 a.m. New York time, according to Bloomberg Bond Trader prices. The 2% note due in February 2023 rose 7/32 or $1.25 per $1,000 face amount, to 102 23/32. The yield dropped to 1.67% on April 15, the lowest level since Dec. 12.
European stocks sank for a fourth day, led by commodity producers, and the Standard & Poor's 500 Index slid 1.2% as industrial metals declined. Copper fell 3% while gold rose for a second day after tumbling 9.1% on April 15.
Beating Stocks
U.S. government securities returned 0.8% in April through yesterday, according to Bank of America Merrill Lynch index data, exceeding the gain in the S&P 500 Index for the first time since November.
Treasury volatility as measured by Bank of America Merrill Lynch's MOVE index fell to 51.9 basis points yesterday, the lowest level since Dec. 11. The gauge, which tracks the outlook for swings in U.S. government debt rates, has averaged 63.7 basis points in the past year.
The spread between yields on 10-year Treasuries and similar-maturity TIPS, a gauge of inflation expectations known as the break-even rate, shrank to as little as 2.38 percentage points yesterday, the narrowest since Nov. 28.
New York Fed President William C. Dudley and his Chicago counterpart Charles Evans stressed the need for the central bank to maintain record stimulus yesterday.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Under pressure to solve a crisis involving delayed medical care for veterans, U.S. lawmakers began talks on Wednesday on bipartisan legislation to address problems at the Department of Veterans Affairs.
Independent Senator Bernie Sanders, who chairs the chamber's Veterans Affairs Committee, and Republican Senator John McCain of Arizona met to try to work out differences.
"We need to try to come to a compromise on this, because the veterans deserve better than us being gridlocked," McCain told reporters after the meeting. McCain was a Vietnam-era prisoner of war and has long been an advocate for U.S. veterans.
Aides to Senate Democrats, who have the majority in the chamber, said floor action on legislation to reform the agency was possible as soon as Thursday.
Sanders said that later on Wednesday he would meet the Republican chairman of the House Veterans Affairs committee, Representative Jeff Miller, to discuss proposals.
Last week Eric Shinseki resigned as secretary of Veterans Affairs after revelations that many agency officials were covering up delays in medical treatments for veterans to improve the appearance of their job performance.
The agency, which is dealing with aging Vietnam War veterans and 2 million veterans of wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, has had difficulties for years in providing timely medical care. Its inspector general said last month that delayed care was "systemic" throughout the agency.
Veterans' groups have expressed concern that legislative proposals to change the agency could be trapped in political gridlock, especially in a midterm election year. However, neither party wants to be perceived as ignoring problems at the Department of Veterans Affairs.
Reforms gained momentum on Tuesday when Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said he was negotiating with the chamber's Republican leadership to try to hold votes this week on legislation to address the crisis in veterans' care.
The House of Representatives already has passed a bill by Miller giving the agency authority to immediately fire executives based on performance. Last month Sanders blocked a similar proposal in the Senate by Republican Marco Rubio.
Sanders this week proposed legislation that would give the agency more power to fire executives while allowing them to appeal, which he said was necessary to avoid politicizing the agency. His bill would also enable the agency to take other actions, including hiring more doctors, to reduce waiting time for veterans' appointments.
McCain and other Republicans on Tuesday introduced legislation to give veterans a "choice card" to seek private care if necessary.
McCain said on Wednesday after meeting Sanders that having a choice of doctors was still the "fundamental difference" between them.
Sanders said, "I think Senator McCain wants to see us make certain that veterans throughout this country do not have to wait in endless lines to get the healthcare they need. I absolutely agree. My legislation does it a little differently than his legislation does, but they both have the same goal."

Testing the knowledge of students and teacher.
What exactly is the "fiscal cliff"?
It is the shorthand term used to describe the conundrum that the U.S. government will face at the end of 2012, when the terms of the Budget Control Act of 2011 are set to go into effect.
Among the laws set to change on Dec. 31 are the end of last year's temporary payroll tax cuts, the end of certain tax breaks for businesses, shifts in the alternative minimum tax that would take a larger bite, the end of the tax cuts from 2001-03, and the beginning of taxes related to President Obama's health care law. At the same time, the spending cuts agreed upon as part of the debt ceiling deal of 2011 will begin to go into effect.
Times Student Staff Writer Katie Davidson roamed the halls of CHS this week to gauge the fiscal cliff knowledge level.
Emma Dufault, senior: "It's if Congress can't decide to raise the debt limit, then we will go back into recession."
Seth Knaack, senior: "If we go over it our country dies."
Tom Chapman, teacher: "It's more than one part. President Bush's income tax cut expires and will go back to what it was before. Some time in 2012, since Congress couldn't decide on budget cuts they passed a resolution that if they couldn't come to an agreement on budget cuts automatic cuts would go into place. President Obama implemented on a temporary deduction on Social Security tax that expires sometime at the end of the year. Now they're worried that all three of these things will happen at the same time sending our economy into recession."

The Walrus Says
"Love and Spirit" will be the theme and serenity will reign
at the Jamestown Community Chorus' spring concert May 6 and 7.
The chorus is now in rehearsals at the Central Baptist Church Monday evenings at 7 p.m. and the group is seeking to expand its membership. Interested people are invited to join the choristers any rehearsal night. There are no auditions.
According to spokeswomen Marion Gomez, the theme running through the program includes songs that illustrate love, spirit, and nature. "This theme is enhanced by very eclectic madrigal selections. The madrigal form of music began in Italy and it became the model for compositions that followed in Europe," she said.
A 17th-century madrigal along with several English madrigals will be included in the spring concerts of the chorus' 56th season.
Marion said that in keeping with the theme Music Director B.J. Whitehouse has added to the program a few selections by old favorites Brahms and Britten along with lesser known works by Hatton, Berger, Finzi, Farmer, and Morley.
For more information about the chorus, call 423-1574 or visit www.jamestownricom/chorus. Sing on!!
Coach Chris Crawford's eighth-grade St. Mark basketball team is on a roll.
In a summary of his season so far, the coach said, "The team struggled early, losing its first two games, but now has won three out of its last four games. The kids have learned that teams that were more disciplined but less talented can beat them. They are practicing free-throw shooting every week. Misses from the foul line cost them one game they would have won in the last second if they could have hit two free throws. They are also focusing on better shot selection inside the three-point line and working hard at passing the ball aggressively instead of dribbling.
"Chris Wright is having an outstanding first half as is Will Deffley underneath the boards where he is most effective. John Rafanelli has shown his usual toughness and has toned down his erratic outside shooting. Tom Stacom has learned to combine timely driving to the hoop with selective outside shooting. Chris Crawford and Tom Munro have also contributed significantly, with Munro holding his own often against much bigger kids underneath and Crawford usually good for four or five steals a game.
"Every kid on the St. Mark team has scored this year, including Kyle Wright, Bobby Stearns, Cory Rosa, and K.C. Barrett, who left to attend to his sick mom.
This is quite an accomplishment." Yes it is! "Go Team!!"
*** Barney Google with the ????
Dr. Joshua Hatch of the Jamestown Animal Clinic takes a trip down the bunny trail when he discusses another popular critter in his Pet Tip of the Week.
"This week we focus on our quiet, long-eared fuzzy friends: rabbits. Common issues seen in rabbits can be avoided with simple changes. First, make sure your rabbit is eating almost exclusively grass hay (timothy, brome, or orchard grass are good). Most people overfeed their bunnies with pelleted food and treats which the bunnies do not need. The lack of fiber and increased calories just make the bunnies fat and prone to intestinal problems. " S e c o n d please avoid pine and cedar shavings and clay or clumping litter for your bunny (and other small mammals). The oils in those woods can cause liver damage and the clay can cause respiratory problems or blockages if eaten. The House Rabbit Society recommends shavings made from aspen, paper, or other organic materials. Please visit www.rabbit. org for more information on these topics and lots of general information about bunnies."
A twitch of the nose and thanks to Dr. Hatch.

Members of the island's Boy Scout Troop 1 hit the slopes at Ascutney Mountain in Vermont last weekend during their second annual ski trip.
The trip included lodging, lift tickets, meals on Saturday and Sunday, and tubing, skating, and use of the pool.
During the rainy Saturday, the scouts skied on an 8-inch base and spent some extra time swimming.
Scoutmaster Dave Volpe said that on Sunday the scouts accomplished the second half of their winter sports merit badge.
Trip leader was Diane Archibald assisted by Glen Hopkins, Jim Archibald, Brenda Bennett, Charles Normand, and John Tragenza.
Scouts attending were Ben Normand, Devin McMaster, Kyle Wright, Tom Munro, Kevin Flanagan, Danny Bailey, Nathaniel Hopkins, Dylan Walsh, Sal Morenzi, Sam Baugh, Eric Archibald, Ian Archibald, and Jack Tragenza.
Bob Kinder was the first in with the correct completed lyrics from last week's column. "If I could be with you one hour tonight. If I were free to do the things I might."
Joan Caley was next and provided the second line, "I'm telling you true, I'd be anything but blue, if I could be with you."
We received a late e-mail from Rochelle Carnevale who gave the correct lyric to the "Too Fat Polka," so we have to add her to the winners list even though she said, "that was too easy."
Atown in the smallest state was introduced to residents of the largest state last month.
Jan Allen sent along a newspaper clipping about a Jamestown couple from her brother in Texas. It was from a December '30s the Dallas Morning News and was the same article that appeared in the ProJo about the Jamestown couple who had anonymously donated $8,000 in clothing and toys to 73 needy children in Providence.
Jan wrote that she had missed the original story in the ProJo, and she was surprised and pleased to see Jamestown mentioned in the Dallas paper. Referring to the news item, she said, "Santa's Helpers want to remain anonymous. . . . God Bless this family and their kindness."
Doesn't anyone see something wrong with Rhode Island entering into a private deal with Citgo and its owner, the Venezuelan despot, one of the biggest exporters of drugs into the United States and no friend to this country.

In addition, Page has also introduced a new line of note cards featuring Jamestown scenes.
Prices for the earrings and bracelets start at $20.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A split federal appeals court on Tuesday grappled with an issue that is crucial to the success of President Barack Obama's health care law, debating whether the government can subsidize premiums for people who buy insurance on exchanges run by Washington.
In a blunt assessment of the health overhaul and challengers to the Affordable Care Act, Judge A. Raymond Randolph described the launch of the act as "an unmitigated disaster" while Judge Harry Edwards said opponents of the law are seeking "to destroy the individual mandate and gut the statute." The mandate is the requirement that nearly everyone have health insurance.
The third judge on the appeals court panel, Thomas Griffith, expressed skepticism over the administration's argument that the subsidies are available regardless of whether people buy insurance on a state-run or federally facilitated exchange.
The exchanges in the Obama administration's signature domestic program are of critical importance because most states have been unable or unwilling to set up their own exchanges. As a result, the federal government has stepped in to take the lead in 36 states.
In the case before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, a group of small business owners says the law authorizes tax credits only for people who buy insurance on exchanges established by the states.
The business owners are challenging an Internal Revenue Service regulation based on the act that says the tax credits are available to all qualifying individuals, regardless of whether they buy insurance at the state level or federally.
The case revolves around four words in the law, which says the tax credits are available to people who enrolled through an exchange "established by the state."
The Affordable Care Act provides a federal tax credit for low- and middle-income people through the exchanges, a setup designed to achieve the law's goal of widespread, affordable health care.
The lawsuit is one of myriad legal challenges to the health care law.
Edwards is an appointee of President Jimmy Carter; Randolph is an appointee of President George H.W. Bush; and Griffith is an appointee of President George W. Bush.
Ron Pollack, executive director of Families USA, an advocacy group supporting the health care law, said he views the case as "frivolous," but he nonetheless says it is "Obamacare opponents' last and most far-fetched stand to destroy the Affordable Care Act." Pollack said he thinks the plaintiffs' reading of the law is wrong because Congress created a national program and lawmakers wanted Americans to have access to subsidized health insurance regardless of where they live.
Michael F. Cannon, director of health policy studies at the libertarian Cato Institute think tank, says Griffith seemed "very skeptical" of the IRS regulation's legality.
Griffith repeatedly stressed to the government that the tax-credit eligibility rules are crystal clear: that a taxpayer must be enrolled "through an exchange established by the state" in order to receive a tax credit," said Cannon, whose organization opposes Obamacare.
Pollack and Cannon both attended Tuesday's argument.
Associated Press writer Ricardo Alonso-Zaldivar in Washington contributed to this report.

RawArt 2014 Birthday Party [Commercial]
It is that time of the year again (January 1st), so I thought I would throw a little party.
First off I have a fun new HD character coming out for G2Male.
Who is your frosty winter friend?
The man made of snow ready for fun and adventure.
He is Snow Jack the Snowman!
Using exquisitely sculpted HD morphs and hand painted texture maps, Snow Jack can come to life this winter to bring magic to all those who truly believe.
Much more than a static snowman prop, Snow Jack is a character for the Genesis 2 Male figure, and as such can have the full range of motion and expression that you would expect from this figure.
He also comes complete with a bonus smart prop snowball to hide his legs if you desire a more traditional look, and he also comes with his own magical straw hat.
So let the fun begin now...with Snow Jack.
But the fun can really begin for everyone because his sale price for THIS WEEK ALONE is 75% Off!! (then he will go back to a regular 30% off for the next week)
AND as an added bonus...If you buy Snow Jack, you will also receive a coupon for an additional 50% off anything else in my store!
AND...Just for fun I want to throw a quick little contest in this thread.
I want to see what kind of fun renders you can come up with using SnowJack, and at the end of the month I will randomly pick from the entries a winner who can choose any product they want from my store (even bundles)!
Why a random choice?....so that anyone of any skill level can enter and have fun and not worry about how well they can compose their art.
Feel free to enter as many times as you like. The more entries, the better chance of getting chosen.
So lets all have some fun and join the party!

I am not sure how well HD morphs will work in poser, and for all the work it takes to make them, I am beginning to not see the value in cross platform support anymore. Not until poser can catch up and handle things natively with DS.
I may still do some future characters with poser support...Post edited by DAZ_ann0314 on

It was officially a new day for New Day Underwriting Managers, which formally announced Tuesday the opening of its new corporate headquarters in Hamilton.
The specialty intermediary of environmental and construction related professional liability insurance said in a news release that the expansion was prompted by its 35 percent growth in revenue and staffing over the past year.
"It is a move to a much newer facility that provides modern amenities," Jefferey S. Lejfer, the company's president and CEO, said. "We were in what I would characterize as an incubator-type space, and had been looking to move for several years."
The site, in a suite at 2465 Kuser Road, includes 5,500 square feet selected to provide multiple meeting spaces, as well as having the potential for continued growth. New Day has signed a six-year lease, according to Lejfer.
"We needed to support the efforts of our team so they can continue to assist us in our growth," Lejfer said.
He added that clients and vendors have been pleased with the new location.
"We had very few people wanting to come visit us, and now everyone wants to come visit us," he said. "The reactions have been very positive and just a reinforcement of the relationship. It validates us as an entity and a company here in Hamilton and New Jersey."
New Day was named one of NJBIZ's Best Places to Work in New Jersey earlier in 2014.

V8379: The October Issue
Added Oct 28, 2012
New York, New Yo...
This is Vogue 8379, a knit wrap dress pattern. I really love this pattern and I wore it right away. I wish I could've taken the photos outside, but a hurricane is fast approaching, oh my! I figured the wrap dress design and the stretchy knit would be pretty forgiving so I didn't end up making any adjustments. I cut a size 8 (one size smaller than usual) because the fabric has a tad more stretch than the guide on the pattern envelope called for.
There are two pleats on each front bodice piece. I made view A, but used the longer sleeve length from view B (however, I omitted the sleeve band since I thought it looked nice as is). I especially love the full skirt and the colorful print that will get me through the winter blues for sure. A nice year-round staple, and I have to say my favorite creation to date!
I labeled this an "intermediate" project only because knits might be tricky for a beginner, but actually I think an adventurous beginner would do just fine. So much easier to fit than woven fabrics – go for it! :)

Following on from the success of the KHT2005 system, the new KEF 75mm (3") Uni-Q array was used as the basis for a smaller and more affordable system, the KHT1005. It was based on the same tried and tested formula: Uni-Q technology for even sound distribution in the listening room, silver finish cast aluminium enclosures for quality feel and superior acoustic performance, and clever mechanics for ease of installation. The KHT1005 system comprised four HTS1001 satellites, one HTC1001 centre and the PSW1000 subwoofer.
Following the success of the KHT2005 and 1005 systems, the 5005 system offered the same high level of acoustic performance in a sleek elegant form that neatly complemented modern audio-visual equipment and home furnishings.
The satellite module was a three-way closed box system comprising two 75mm (3") bass units either side of the established 75mm (3") Uni-Q array. The result is a seamlessly integrated sound, evenly distributed across the whole listening area. The twin long throw woofers provide a detailed and solid bass with controlled response to integrate smoothly with the matching PSW2500 subwoofer.
The satellites could be installed with floor stands, wall brackets, or either short or adjustable height desk stands. The KHT5005 system comprised for four HTS5001 satellites, HTC5001 centre and the PSW2500 subwoofer.

Faculty Awards and Honors

Cornell ECE researchers win Outstanding Paper Award for silicon tweezer to aid in surgical operations
Every day, surgeons must choose which tools they use to understand the mechanical integrity and properties of tissue. In general, these decisions are made without quantitative data and rely on the doctor's experience.
To address this issue, Cornell researchers have developed a multi-function silicon tweezer for characterizing the electromechanical properties of tissue during surgical procedures. By using the device to tweeze tissue, insertion force, permittivity, and electrical properties can be monitored simultaneously at different locations to provide fast information during time-critical surgeries.
The team's findings were published in the paper, A silicon electro-mechano tissue assay surgical tweezer, which was submitted to the 27th IEEE International Conference on Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) 2014 Conference. Out of more than 325 accepted papers, it was one of only four selected to receive the Outstanding Paper Award.
"We are very excited about this device," said Po-Cheng Chen, the paper's lead author. "Silicon has been widely used for its semiconductor properties. However, it also shows outstanding mechanical properties. These characteristics allow it to be used for the design of tweezers for normal surgical operations. With integrated sensors, this tool can provide surgeons with more information during surgery and can make operations more precise. It is a great honor for us to win this award."
The team includes Po-Cheng Chen, Ph.D. student, SonicMEMS Lab, Cornell School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE); Amit Lal, Professor, Cornell, ECE; Connie Wu, NNIN 2013 summer CNF REU (Research Experience Undergraduate), Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Pennsylvania; and Dr. Fabrizio Michelassi, M.D, F.A.C.S., Chairman of Surgery and The Lewis Atterbury Stimson Professor of Surgery, Weil Cornell Medical College, and Surgeon-in-Chief, New York-Presbyterian Hospital.
The tweezer also addresses a key problem during intestinal anastomoses surgical operations where stapling devices are used to seal tissue.
According to the paper, multiple thin-film sensors are integrated along with the silicon tweezer, and four sets of strain gauges, two sets of permittivity sensors, and 16 platinum bio-potential recording electrodes are also included. A set of piezoelectric transducers is attached on the legs of the tweezer for gap monitoring with 20 ?m displacement resolution. The silicon tweezer structure can perform tweezing motion without silicon fracture. As a result, the device can estimate tissue stiffness through applied force and distance variation.

Well, this was rather unexpected. As it turns out, Commodore USA's CEO Barry Altman isn't particularly pleased about the article I wrote earlier today in which I placed a considerable amount of scepticism with regards to Commodore USA and its business (and website). He (not his lawyer) sent us a threatening email demanding we take down the article, post a new correction article, the whole shebang. The entire email - as an image, you'll want the original formatting - after the break. Our reply? We refer you to the reply given in the case of Arkell v. Pressdram.

Podcast: 2012 Isaac Asimov Memorial Debate–Faster Than the Speed of Light
by AMNH on
Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity has been tested with ever-increasing precision since its publication in 1905. One of its key predictions is that only light itself can travel at the speed of light. While the theory does not forbid particles from moving faster, such particles must be traveling backward in time.
In this podcast from the spring, join Hayden Planetarium Director Neil deGrasse Tyson and six of the world's leading voices in this scientific debate for the 2012 Isaac Asimov Memorial Debate, "Faster Than the Speed of Light." This year's debate pitted some of the experimentalists who claimed to have discovered faster-than-light neutrinos against their strongest critics, and explored the ways that modern physicists are testing the fundamental laws of nature.
The Panelists included:
- Dr. David Cline, Department of Physics and Astronomy, UCLA
- Dr. Gian Giudice, Theoretical Physics Division, CERN
- Dr. Sheldon Glashow, Department of Physics, Boston University
- Dr. Chris Hegarty, MITRE's Center for Advanced Aviation System Development
- Dr. Laura Patrizii, Department of Physics, University of Bologna
- Dr. Gabriela González, Professor of Physics and Astronomy, Louisiana State University
The debate was recorded at the Museum on March 20, 2012. Watch a video of the full program on AMNH.tv.

The mode of operation is set by simple DIP switches. Features include an internal oscillator that allows operation of the drive at an internal speed set-point or with an external analog speed reference that can scale this set-point. Both the 5A and the 10A versions of this drive can be powered by the same range of voltage supplies. This drive is protected against over-current, over-temperature and incorporates the state of the art dual full bridge MOSFET driver for maximum efficiency. Connectivity is tool-free with RJ45-CAT5 plugs for the control inputs and push-type terminals for power. The optically isolated control circuit can be powered with an internal 5V supply on the drive for TTL step and direction compatibility or supply an auxiliary voltage supply for up to 24V logic step and direction.

Jon Gosselin is speaking out on his new gig with Ed Hardy designer Christian Audigier, as well as briefly touching up on his new 22 year old girlfriend, Hailey Glassman, in a new interview with People.
We posted photos of Jon with new GF Hailey this weekend, taken while the two were in St. Tropez. It now seems Jon was mixing business with pleasure as he also met up with Christian Audigier to finalize a deal to design his own line of children's clothing with Ed Hardy.
The best part of this story? Jon says Hailey will also help with the designs, "She'll have a lot of input with Christian," Says Jon. "And I will, too."
Jon is also making sure to keep the Plus 8 involved saying that his eight kids, who spent the weekend with Kate at the family's Pennsylvania home, will model his designs in ads for the line. Audigier says he approached Gosselin with the idea after noticing that Jon often wore his tattoo-inspired T-shirts on Jon and Kate Plus Eight.
Sources go on to describe the new couple as looking very happy together. Jon also tells People that he felt "very relaxed" about his weekend with Hailey.
Sighs, must be nice to not have a care in the world other than your child bride 22 year old girlfriend. Check out the facebook photo of a very classy Hailey below.
Plus a picture of Kate Gosselin taken this weekend with this kids below as well. Kate was also seen still wearing her wedding ring this weekend. Not sure what that signifies but umm allrighty Kate.
UPDATE – Us Weekly has posted the mugshot below of Hailey. She was arrested for drug possession in 2005.

Google Play Books for Androids Adds New 'Read Aloud' Feature
Posted by John Kilhefner Categories: Google, Software,
The new version of Google Play Books for Android has a new feature that reads books to users on its own. The feature is titled, obviously, "read aloud," and works with most books without the need for the book to come with a "read aloud" enabled feature.
You'll also find a new pinch-to-zoom feature, as well as double-tap-to-zoom. Further, the app now makes recommendations on other books you might find enjoyable after you finish reading one book. Though, if you're like me, you prefer to soak in the totality of a one book world before even thinking about diving into another.

text: Student Profiles David Aron '05 David Aron '05 Hometown: Elgin, Illinois Major: History and Government Why did you come to Bowdoin? I grew up in the midwest and new very little about the east coast, but New England always seemed like an attractive place to go to college. I think I first heard about Bowdoin when I read The Scarlet Letter and did some research on Nathaniel Hawthorne, an alumnus. I applied kind of on a whim, and it wasn't until I visited after being accepted that I really felt this was the place for me. I stayed in a dorm with a Bowdoin student, and everyone was so interesting and nice. I think that experience made up my mind. When I went back home and told people I was going to a college in Maine, they thought I was crazy - it was like saying I was going to Siberia - but I haven't regretted it. How did you decide on your major? I had always had an interest in History, and my first history class at Bowdoin, Tudor-Stuart England with Professor Tananbaum, confirmed that it was something I wanted to continue studying. I also really enjoyed Spanish and Visual Arts, and for a while I minored each. I chose to major in Government because after 9/11, I felt a sense of urgency to learn more about politics and law and international relations, and because I really enjoyed the classes in the Government department. Fortunately, both of my majors have complemented one another. What has been your favorite class at Bowdoin? It's hard to choose a favorite, so I'll list a few. Printmaking I with Professor Wethli, The U.S. in the Nineteenth Century with Professor Rael, Religion and Politics with Professor Franco, Latin American Revolutions with Professor Wells, and Bridging Divisions with Professor Deane. Bridging Divisions stands out to me as a particularly memorable course. It concerned the regulation of ethno-national conflicts such as those in Northern Ireland, Bosnia, Rwanda, Darfur, and Israel-Palestine. I learned so much about world history and international relations in that class, and we also got to do weekly conflict simulations where we would have to play different roles, such as militia groups, NGOs, and state powers, and try to achieve our objectives. What extracurricular activities are you involved in? Do you have an on-campus job? As a first-year I played water polo and acted in a student performance of the musical Hair. I enjoyed both, but sophomore year, I went off in a completely different direction. I started working at the Visual Arts Library on campus, and began volunteering at the Maine Volunteer Lawyer's Project in Portland. I have done both ever since. The Volunteer Lawyers Project is a federally funded program that provides legal services for low-income Maine residents who cannot afford attorneys. As a volunteer, I screened calls once a week and referred clients to the legal services for which they qualified. It has been a great way to help people who find themselves in really adverse situations, and also to learn about the law. Did you study abroad? Yes. I spent the spring semester of my junior year in Santiago, Chile. My dad was born and raised there, and I had visited several times before, but never for more than a week. Most of my relatives still live in Chile, and I lived with my aunt [during my semester abroad]. I took classes at the Universidad de Chile in Santiago, and at the center of my study abroad program. Going to Chile really allowed me to connect to a part of my life that I didn't know very much about. Have you done any independent studies? I did one independent study in printmaking and book arts with Professor Anna Hepler, who is fantastic. I made copper etchings and worked with a professional bookmaker in Portland to do letterpress. With Anna's help, I printed and bound ten editions of an original illustrated book. This year, I did an honors project with Allen Wells on the history of the Jewish community in Chile, which I became interested in during my study abroad experience. I actually received funding from the school to return to Santiago over winter break to gather primary sources and conduct interviews, which figure heavily into my project. What's your best Bowdoin memory? Maybe it would be returning to Bowdoin this fall after studying abroad. The atmosphere had changed, and everyone seemed so engaged in national politics and the presidential election in November. That was really exciting to me. Other than that, the thing I will remember most about Bowdoin are the moments of clarity, the feelings I have had after a class or a reading or a meeting with a professor, when something very complex suddenly became more manageable or simple. Those are the moments when I really felt fortunate to go to school here. What are your plans after graduation? I am moving to New York immediately after graduation, and will begin training as a New York City Teaching Fellow. I will be teaching special education in a high-need secondary school in the city while earning a Masters in Education. I expect it to be pretty challenging, but I have known I wanted to teach high school for a long time, and this program provides a lot of training and support. I am ultimately interested in a career in law, journalism, and education, so if anyone has any ideas about how to integrate the three, please let me know. What advice about the Bowdoin experience would you give to a first-year student? First, I would say get off campus as much as possible, especially if you're not from the area. Don't listen to people when they tell you that Bowdoin is a "bubble," because [that's] really self-imposed. Maine is an amazing place, and this area has so many outdoor, cultural, and community service opportunities. I would also recommend getting to know your professors, because there are some really amazing ones here. More generally, I would suggest that students not expect everything to fall into place right away. If you are having trouble finding your place here academically or socially, give it some time, and gradually, things will click. This school encourages students to be independent and make a lot of choices for themselves. I've found that periods of uncertainty, while not always comfortable, are when you learn the most about yourself. Story posted on May 25, 2005 « Back | More Student Profiles | Go to News Home

For the over-21 crowd there are not many things that spice up a good night with friends than sitting back and mixing up a few bar favorites. The obvious caveat is that not everyone is a trained bar tender and a poorly mixed drink can put a damper on a good night. Amazingly there are machines that will mix drinks automatically, but those have a large footprint and, besides being expensive, are cumbersome and hard to clean. Besides, what is the fun of making a good lemon drop if some machine pumps one out automatically. So, get a glass that has all those recipes on the side measured out by volume. Well, the problem here is that there can only be 6-7 mixtures tops, and there are hundreds of drink recipes in the world. Also, those do a poor job at measuring solids like sugar or salt. The answer is The Barman, an ingenious KickStarter project by John Gallagher of Sewell, New Jersey.
The Barman uses a completely different way to measure liquids that is indifferent to glass weight or ice amount, a technology called differential weighing which allows for much more accurate weighing of mixtures and liquids. The way The Barman works is a mobile app sends mixing instructions to the base, and a twin pair of LED's that sit under the glass of choice glow blue. A small display in the front shows what liquid is needed and a progress bar will slowly fill up until the correct mass is deposited, and the red LED will illuminate the glass to give a more visual warning. Because of the nature of the scale, solids are also able to be accurately weighed, meaning sugar, salt, and other solids can, for the first time, be measured.
What really makes this project attractive is the amount of customization that can allow the user to tweak any recipe to make is stronger or more flavorful. Custom recipes can be added by measuring exact amounts of each liquor to make any drink perfectly replicable. Of course the app is Facebook and Twitter connected, allowing anyone to share their nightly indulgence with a friend or family member across the globe. The sheer connectivity and incredible ambition make this project something worth investing in, and I look forward to having one of these in my liquor cabinet in the future.

text: Paul Graham (born 1956), an internationally renowned British photographer, has been at the forefront of contemporary documentary photography since the 1980s. His work is celebrated for its unique blend of documentary observation and conceptual innovation. This exhibition brings together three of Graham's most celebrated bodies of work, made across the United States between 1998 and 2011: "American Night" (1998–2002), "a shimmer of possibility" (2004–2006), and "The Present" (2009–2001). Linked by a common subject matter, the work gathered here examines the state of race and social class in America while using the very nature of sight and the medium of photography as metaphors for inequality, invisibility, and the ways photographs inflect our perceptions of the world. This exhibition is organized by Pier 24 Photography.

Vendor Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can I be paid for freight charges?
Yes, SJSU allows for freight charges to be paid on invoices.
However, all freight charges greater than $100 must include a copy of the actual freight bill, showing the actual cost. If the products were shipped via UPS or FedEx, those charges are paid without question, regardless of amount.
Who handles my account?
Vendors are split amongst the Accounts Payable Technicians alphabetically by vendor name.
Check our Accounts Payable Directory for the name and contact information of your technician.
Why do I need to complete the Vendor Data Record form?
The Vendor Data Record Std. 204 (PDF) is a mandatory State of California form. We require this form from all vendors prior to issuing payments. The information on this form determines your:
- FEIN or SSN number (for 1099 reporting)
- Legal corporate or individual name
- Mailing address
- State of California withholding requirements
- Tax residency
- Vendor type
For additional information on residency status or withholding requirements, contact Accounts Payable.
Why did I receive this 1099 and what do I have to do with it?
1099's are mailed to recipients no later than January 31 of each year. The form is sent to vendors that file tax status as:
- Independent/Sole Proprietor
- Medical Payments
- Payments to Law firms
- Royalties
- Rental payments
SJSU reports all 1099 payments to the Internal Revenue Service. Each recipient must then include this income when filing taxes.
If you have questions about the correctness of what was reported, contact Accounts Payable.
