Saddlebred World Loses Betty Petit
Lexington, Kentucky - Beloved wife and mother, Marion Elizabeth "Betty" McKenzie Petit died at the age of 92 in La Canada, California.
She was born to J. Wallace McKenzie and Wilhelmina Fitger McKenzie on December 13, 1919, in Great Falls, Montana. She led a full and happy life which came to a peaceful close on July 13, 2012, at home in La Canada, California. She was a graduate of Scripps College for Women, Claremont, California (1941) and a nursing school in Boston, where she specialized in pediatric nursing during WW II, a skill she later must have found very valuable as she raised her five children.
She will be missed by the large family she leaves behind and her loving husband of 50 years, Dr. Donald W. Petit. Her children, Sharon Donnelly Sabin (Newberg, Oregon), Kenneth W. Donnelly (Ventura, California), Thomas E. (Tuck) Donnelly (Bainbridge Is., Washington), Margaret A. Donnelly (Durango, Colorado) and Elizabeth Donnelly O'Brien (West Linn, Oregon), her five step children, eleven grandchildren and four great grand children and her husband, will gather together to celebrate her vibrant life in a private memorial ceremony at a later date at Forest Lawn Cemetery, Glendale.
Betty Petit will best be remembered by the horse show world as an avid and able equestrienne on board her champion American Saddlebred horses well into her eighth decade. By her family, she will also be remembered fondly as a tireless and happy competitor no matter what the game: tennis, golf, Scrabble or Bridge. But most of all, the happiest role of her long life was that of motherhood. She loved babies and children and, later in life, the foals of her splendid horses. She will be greatly missed by all who loved her.

Williams: Keeping Rowe a priority
2:00pm Thursday 7th March 2013 in Sport
CHAIRMAN Kevin Williams says Gornal will do all they can to keep hold of manager Ian Rowe.
The boss has rightly received most of the credit for the Peacocks impressive rise in the last two-and-a-half years.
And while a trip to Wembley may no longer be on the menu after Saturday's loss in County Durham, Williams says keeping hold of Rowe is a key priority for the club.
But with the manager's profile rising all the time as his side continue to impress on the pitch, he accepts this may be no easy task.
He said: "If a club from higher up the pyramid came calling I think we would struggle to keep him.
"We know this is a possibility and we would obviously do everything we could to keep hold of him.
"It's a case of putting a package together which will encourage him to stay.
"When Ian arrived at the club we had a five year plan which we've achieved in less than three.
"He has exceeded all our expectations and it's up to us as a club to keep up with him.
"We have to work hard to get the ground up to standard so we can look at promotion next season."
Williams admits he dared to dream when the Peacocks went in at the break tied at 1-1 on Saturday.
He said: "I really thought it might be our day.
"But in the last half-an-hour they took over.
"As I said to Ian, it's a credit we have got this far in the competition. Now we must concentrate on finishing strong in the league.
"I hope the games we have lost don't catch up with us."

Jessica Harvey
The closer Jessica Harvey got to high school graduation, the more uncertain she was about where to attend college. "I actually applied to 14 different schools — not something I would ever recommend to anyone," recalls the National Merit Scholar.
Jessica credits her parents with discovering TU on the Princeton Review's Web site.
"Mom and Dad were impressed by the fact that TU had some of the happiest students in the nation," she says. "I thought Tulsa was just too far from home. Then, when we visited a college in Arkansas, my dad said we might as well drive over to Tulsa since it was close. It was actually four hours away, but I am so happy that we made the trip."
Jessica never expected to attend school outside the South, but immediately felt "at home" here. "TU had everything I wanted: Not too large with a rigorous academic curriculum. I also wanted to feel comfortable because college is your home for four years of your life."
For Jessica and many other students, involvement is a key to staving off homesickness.
"TU makes it easy to get to know people and to be active in student organizations," she says.
Orientation, living in a freshman dorm, and meeting her best friend confirmed Jessica's impressions of TU. "People here take care of you," she says.
Currently, she is the marketing director for TU's Student Association, training three freshmen as marketing associates. She also is helping to develop a mentoring program with East Central High School in Tulsa.
"Our goal is to encourage kids to apply to college. We want to help them cut through some of the bureaucracy and offer guidance in the application process," she says. Jessica credits her professors with enhancing the "at home" feeling of TU.
"My first semester, I went to dinner at three professors' homes - three! None of my friends at larger schools have the chance to get to know their professors on that level."
The advantage? Professors who know their students also know their career goals and understand what they need to study to realize their dreams.

The Rhetorical Function of the Book of Ezekiel
Biographical note
Thomas Renz teaches Old Testament and Hebrew at Oak Hill College, London.
'In his treatment of the rhetorical complexities of Ezekiel as well as in his reconstruction of the concerns of the second generation of Judaean exiles, Renz has not only built on past generations of Ezekiel scholarship, he has also defined an approach that will stimulate further investigation for many years to come.'

I was recently asked a question about how I am able to place ads and earn 30%-40% profit. Here's the question based on a post I wrote on my wall.
You put $38 on your ads and make $55, so what's your price per clicks.
Here's my answer.
Warren Baum's Fanbox Success and how I became the #2 US past 30 day earner.
Fanbox isn't that hard to have success with if you have patience and are willing to invest your earnings every day. I started with less than $10 and in less than 1 year of working FanBox, I have put almost $11,000 into my Fanbox bank.My recent success
A little over a week ago, I wanted to see if I could get 1000 fans in a week. Up until this point I had been using Fanbox for only about 1 month. I signed up 3 months before that, but didn't log back into Fanbox until later. I forgot all about creating my account. Anyway, about a week ago, I had almost 300 fans. I think the most I ever got in 1 day was about 25, but I was happy to see my fans increasing every day. I created about 150 blogs and posts over that past month, plus I placed about 25 ads. My earnings were steady, but not very high. I wondered what I could do to increase my earnings and my fans at a faster rate. I re-read all my Fanbox blog posts under this very same blog to see if there was some secret I was missing. I still wasn't sure, but I did come up with an idea.

How an MBA programme is helping staff to lead more effectively
Clinical and non-clinical leaders in London are thinking more strategically and commercially thanks to an MBA programme that helps staff be more effective in the workplace.
All areas of the health service are dealing with unprecedented levels of change. Staff are increasingly having to think more commercially, and while senior staff who have risen through the ranks have excellent clinical skills, often they have not been given sufficient general management training to manage budgets running into the millions of pounds.
In 2008 the NHS Next Stage Review identified an urgent need for a new emphasis on enabling NHS staff to lead and manage the organisations in which they work.
The report recommended that the best method to achieve this aim was to create new partnerships between the NHS, universities and industry. These clusters were created with the aim of improving management training in the health service, thereby enabling pioneering new models of care to be developed and then delivered directly to patients.
To help NHS staff negotiate these new waters Westminster Business School created a bespoke Master of Business Administration programme for members of The King's Health Partners Consortium, which is made up of three NHS foundation trusts: Guy's and St Thomas'; King's College Hospital and South London and Maudsley.
The King's Health Partners Consortium MBA programme, as it was called, was designed to help senior staff to think strategically, to think in the longer term and to be able to anticipate what may come further down the line.
In November 2011, 17 members of staff from across the three King's Health Partners' trusts graduated from the MBA programme. Staff ranging from clinicians to management and administration from each of the foundation trusts celebrated the successful completion of the course.
King's Health Partners has secured funding for a second intake of the Executive MBA Programme which will begin in September 2012.
Kate Langford, a graduate of the programme and now deputy medical director at Guy's and St Thomas' Foundation Trust, says management training in the health service is "crucial" to enable clinicians to engage with managing the service and for them to be effective managers.
"To get the best out of the partnership of medical and non-medical managers both need to be able to speak the same language and formal management training for clinicians facilitates this," she says.
"Kings Health Partners has been very farsighted in commissioning an MBA for a cohort of staff and this will pay dividends for the organisation."
Kate was already working in a management role as a clinical lead while studying with Westminster, so she says she was able to put her learning into practice straight away. She says having her leadership style formally assessed has enabled her to lead more effectively and ultimately helped her be more effective in the workplace.
Peter Oliver, who is ET&D development manager for Guy's and St Thomas' Foundation Trust agrees that the need for clinicians to think more commercially is increasing. "We're already operating in a competitive marketplace and this is only going to become more apparent in time."
He says as a manager in the service it is essential to have the clinical skills and knowledge to understand the service itself but points out the huge sums of public money involved mean that managers and senior leaders also need to be business-like and efficient.
Peter says: "If you take the example of, say, a clinical director running a £100million a year budget – it is essentially a business and a very large one at that – and yet these people have had no training in how to deal with that. They are bright and capable people but we need to be able to support them to ensure they work effectively and the services are managed appropriately. We desperately need these skills."
David Boothey, another MBA graduate of the programme is deputy general manager of Children's Services at Guy's and St Thomas' Foundation Trust. He says the role of manager in the NHS is generally undervalued.
"Management provides a valuable contribution, and it's through sound management practice that efficiencies can be achieved, particularly within the current climate where there is a need to reduce funding to the NHS," he says.
Recognising that US medical training includes a portion of management skills, the students spent a week on an international study trip tailored to their needs, at Johns Hopkins Hospital, Maryland.
Director of MBA Programmes at Westminster Business School, Dr Susan Balint, said: "The rapidly changing landscape of the NHS – and other public sector services – means management skills are becoming essential in roles which were previously clinically focused. We were delighted to work with the King's Health Partners Consortium to develop their senior staff, contextualizing our MBA programme, developing health service case studies and debating their specific needs in a complex world. The programme can be run for and adapted for other NHS trusts, or groups of medical professionals, who would benefit from managerial expertise and a broad understanding of business issues and how they relate to their sector."
Readers' comments (1)
Many in the public healthcare sector still struggle to accept that management is a profession and to acknowledge the value that skilled and experienced management professionals can bring. One of the criticisms of the CCGs is their leaders' lack of management knowledge and skills. Perhaps now is the time for those wishing to be future organisational leaders to ensure they have the necessary skills to deliver sustainable performance. I am sure that Westminster, and other business schools, would be very happy to develop appropriate training programmes. Perhaps those unwilling to commit to this level of training should reconsider their suitability for the role?

Openings, closings and changes
For years, Emily Conn's friends have been asking her to let them eat cake. To be more specific, they've been begging for bites of a dense, chewy, almond-buttercrunch confection that Conn cooks up for special occasions. Now the treats are on sale at the Shelburne Farms Welcome Center [1], Dobrá Tea [2], City Market [3] and Healthy Living [4], so aficionados can snack on 'em as often as they want.
When Conn started The Bakery at the Farmhouse Kitchen in her home in the South End of Burlington, she was already a 20-year veteran of the food industry, with recent gigs at Shelburne Farms and baking at Dealer.com's [5] employee café. There she cooked alongside manager Chris Conn, who happens to be her husband. "He 'fired' me so I could pursue this," Conn explains with a chuckle.
Conn's delicious four-inch rounds sell for a little more than $5 and currently come in three flavors: original, chocolate and maple. "Right now I'm making maple ones to honor the season," she says. "This summer I'll do it with berries. In fall I'll do caramelized cranberries." Will she whip up other products? "Maybe in the future I'll branch out," Conn suggests. The cakes are "time consuming," she says. "They're definitely ... handcrafted."
Is your mouth watering for a free sample? Conn's doing a demo at City Market this Saturday from 11 to 3.
When "Soup Mama" Lorraine Murray [6] moved out of Burlington, she left a lot of busy professionals nursing a yen for home-cooked broth. Finally someone has plans to fill the void. Debbie Krug, a 22-year-old UVM grad and participant in the Vermont Women's Business [7] program, is gearing up for eco-friendly soup delivery beginning in August.
Inspired by her environmental studies major, Krug will be "coming at it from an environmentally conscious angle," she says. She plans to use produce from local farms and deliver via bike. Based on requests from potential customers, she's also hoping to partner with a bakery and deliver loaves alongside the pints and quarts.
Young as she is, Krug has cooking experience: She was the assistant chef at Waitsfield's Center for Whole Communities [8] and currently directs the food program at the Burlington Children's Space [9].
How far is Krug willing to go to deliver the goods? Within a mile of the McClure Multi-Generational Center to start, "but depending on interest level and my capacity, I'd be willing to go to the South End and maybe Winooski," she speculates.
The former Country Pantry in Fairfax has new owners — Amanda Wolcott and Jessica Cross — and a new name: AJ's Country Pantry [10].
The eatery was sold soon after its previous owner, Sulaiman "Sam" Jadallah [11], was charged with a pair of sexual offenses.
According to a staffer: "It's the same good food, low prices and good portions. Same cooks, same servers, same everything." The more things change...
Until finances forced a recent shutdown, Crowley Cheese [12] of Healdville was the "oldest continually operating cheese producer in the United States," according to its website.
Nobody answered the phone at the creamery, but an online message explains: "We are sorry to announce that as a result of the recent economic downturn, Crowley Cheese has found it necessary to discontinue production of our cheese ... It is our hope that in the future, we will be able to once again offer to our loyal customers what has proven to be one of America's favorite cheeses."
Another recession casualty: Home Bistro [13] of Plattsburgh, which makes frozen food sous vide — the gourmet version of boil-in-a-bag — has filed for bankruptcy. The company's lawyer told the Press Republican that Home Bistro, started in Vermont in 1999, has plans to reorganize and stay in business. The founders learned the technique from Gerard Rubaud [14].

Yesterday, I began selling ads on my fashion and culture blog, 33 avenue Miquelon, to help pay rent, buy groceries and so forth. This post should help lay it out for you when you have the chance.
Today, I have opened 30 slots for the advert space I call the Manehattan Advertising Exchange in the 33 av. Miquelon Advert Store. These 30 are for any and all bronies who purchased ad space inside the Las Pegaus Unicon convention book, only to find out that about 50 pairs of eyes were ever going to see it instead at least 10 times that. Here's what I'm offering:
- Ads are 320 x 250, and will run in the sidebar for 30 days
- Regular price is $20.00; the promo code FU UNICON will take 20 percent off
- Six ads will be shown at any given time
- Advertisers will have the option to renew at the end of 30 days at the regular price of $20.00
- Those who opt out at the end of 30 days will have their slot removed; will continue to remove slots until six remain, the normal number of slots available at the Exchange at any one time.
As for why you should consider this offer…
- 6,400 pageviews/month on average
- Readers come from the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom, respectively
- Majority of readers make up to $50,000/year
- Majority of readers have a college degree
- 33 avenue Miquelon was one of the only media to have an interview with Tabitha St. Germain until recently, has also interviewed Nicole Oliver and Michelle Creber
- Google and Tumblr fuel most of the blog's traffic
- 33 avenue Miquelon has Rarity as its unofficial mascot; would be official, but would not want to incur the wrath of Hasbro's lawyers re: IP
Whenever you're ready, the Advert Store will make it a breeze to advertise with the avenue; be sure to turn off AdBlock so you can see your ad when it goes live.

No, but nice try.
You say that "The elected officials approved a fee that would be charged on new homes and commercial construction, with the intent to slow growth by taxing it. "
That is not true. And it would be unconstitutional. The impact fee is designed to generate the revenue needed to maintain a level of services in the face of a growing population.
Not all of us are builders, and therefore we don't think we should subsidize the expenses necessitated by your pursuit of profits. Why people like you persist in your insistence that the existing residents of Collier County be required to finance the libraries, roads, schools and emergency personnel needed to serve newcomers is one of the mysteries of our age.
No happy camper standing in line for her Obamaphone has a greater sense of entitlement than the "builders" of Collier County.

Separated only by a few years in age, but at opposite points of their respective careers, Paul Tracy (43 years old) and Alex Tagliani (39) are back to racing against each other in this weekend's Rolex Series Montreal 200 at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve. The two Canadians carried the flag in CART and Champ Car, although over the last five years their open-wheel opportunities have fallen from full-time to mostly sporadic.
Tagliani – now in his third year back full-time in IndyCar since the open wheel unification of 2008 – is on a bit of a career resurgence, having qualified in the Firestone Fast Six the last four road and street course races in the Team Barracuda-BHA Honda. Barring a last-minute substitution, it appears 2012 will mark the first IndyCar season where Tracy won't appear in a single race since 1990.
Each has a sterling opportunity to take their first win in a new discipline this weekend. Tracy, who's made a handful of Rolex DP starts, including four this year in a previous generation Dallara Ford co-driving with Dr. Jim Lowe, has his best shot with the Corvette DP for Action Express Racing. By contrast, Tagliani, who was already committed to the weekend's NASCAR Nationwide Series race, will make his DP debut driving in both Starworks Riley Fords. He has prior experience in Grand-Am, but only in GT with a Ford Mustang.
"I've been very feverishly wanting to try these cars," Tagliani said in a Tuesday conference call. "Unless you drive and try, you don't know what you're missing out on. It's a good opportunity as I know the track, and Starworks are pretty quick. Maybe it opens the door for the Daytona 24 in the future."
Tagliani's task, as co-driver to two separate drivers each in the heat of the Daytona Prototype championship fight, is to not stuff up either of their chances. He's scheduled to start the No. 8 car, then hand to Ryan Dalziel there. Once Alex Popow finishes his stint in the sister No. 2, Tagliani will take that car to the finish. Dalziel currently stands six points back, and Popow 21, of DP standings leaders Scott Pruett and Memo Rojas of TELMEX Chip Ganassi Racing with Felix Sabates.
"For the DP, it's a question of being a very good teammate to Ryan for chance in the championship," Tagliani said. "It's tough to dilute your focus and program over a weekend with two different categories. But these chances to try don't happen often, especially with IndyCar. My job is to complement the team, not reinvent the wheel."
Known for his "Chrome Horn" in his open-wheel career, Tracy has no championship pressure attached for his drive in the No. 5 entry with David Donohue. As it's been since 2007 since Tracy had a full season in anything, with only 19 IndyCar starts since the end of '07, he's using this opportunity as a showcase for a full year next year. He passed up any Nationwide offers as a result of the singular focus.
"I'd talked to a couple teams when this came up a couple weeks ago, but I want to focus exclusively on Action Express," he said. "The key is that hopefully it opens the door for next year."
Knowing that his open-wheel career has likely seen its last race (not counting the canceled Las Vegas finale, his last start came at Edmonton 2011), Tracy has no regrets as he moves on to the next stage in prolonging his career behind the wheel.
"I'm fine with that," he admitted. "I had a great, long career in IndyCars for 22 years. It doesn't go on forever. Now almost a year out, the focus has changed. What's the next phase of my career in what I want to do?
"I've always dabbled in Grand-Am. They're not the most high tech cars, like an ALMS car or something like that. But what I like about them, the field is almost equal, the gap is usually within one second first to last, and the racing is really good. It's not an Audi versus the rest of the teams like in (FIA) World Endurance. It's good, hard racing for two to three hours. This is what I would like to do next year, full-time.
"I want to race because I still love to race. I can get what I want out of the racing side of it. Any racing driver will tell you, you won't get rich in sports cars, but I still have the passion to drive. These cars are a lot of fun to drive."
Tagliani, meanwhile, is looking to use this as a launch point to a DP ride in next year's Rolex 24 at Daytona. Having prior DP experience can only benefit him.
"It's been an avenue for a long time, trying to do the 24 hours. Guys get rides for that very quickly. I'd like to do it in a good way. Knowing Starworks is a very strong team, I knew I had a big weekend with Nationwide but I really wanted to put myself out there in a DP car. Now I will have some experience. When you ask for the 24, it's so important, that teams don't want to take the risk of a guy who's never driven one! Hopefully it's the beginning."
Any future Rolex 24 appearances for either driver would match those achieved by other IndyCar drivers at this year's race. The Andretti Autosport trio of Ryan Hunter-Reay, Marco Andretti and James Hinchcliffe, and Ganassi's usual open-wheel armada (Scott Dixon, Dario Franchitti and Graham Rahal) were those who raced, among others. RHR and Andretti were co-drivers in Starworks' No. 2 at this year's Rolex, Andretti in his DP debut, with Hinchcliffe the only one of the aforementioned six in a GT ride. Tracy drove this year's Rolex with Lowe and the Frisselle brothers (ABOVE).

Former Egyptian national team coach Hassan Shehata is the new head coach of Zamalek.
He replaces Hossam Hassan who was sacked after Zamalek finished second behind great rivals Al-Ahly at the end of the Egyptian league.
Shehata resigned as the Egyptian national team the Pharaoh's coach in June 2011 following a 0-0 draw against South Africa in a 2012 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier which left the reigning African champions qualification hopes in dire straits.
The decision to sack Hossam Hassan did not go well with Zamalek fans.
One of the fans groups popularly known as White Knights Ultras has accused Zamalek's board of being ungrateful to Hassan's achievement of leading the team from the 13th place at the beginning of the season to finishing second.
They are planning to hold demonstrations on Wednesday 13th June 2011 in front of the Zamalek club headquarters to show their disapproval of the decision and for appointing Shehata.
Zamalek played Ulinzi stars earlier in the season in the CAF Champions league where the Egyptians beat the soldiers 4-0 at home and 1-0 away from home for a 5-0 aggregate win in the first round of the qualifiers.

I am looking at trying out the whole mtb tandem thing, but my wife is tiny with a 25" standover.
Given that none of the stock sizes of true offroad tandems will give her anything but negative standover, is there any chance of us feeling comfortable on semi technical trails without a very custom frame?
We have a road tandem and obviously the negative standover is not an issue, I am just concerned with sudden stops mid obstacle in the mountains of colorado.

Samsung Galaxy S4 - How to set preferred Wifi networks?
So I'm always using wifi on my Galaxy S4 (Verizon). At work, there are two wifi networks available. One is my own private router, the other one is the public wifi from my cable company (Cablevision/Optimum).
Of course, I prefer to be connected to my own private router while at work (it's much faster and more reliable), but the phone always, every day without fail, automatically connects to the cable company's wifi instead.
Yes I know I can tell the phone to "forget" the cable company's public network, but that would be inconvenient because there are many places I go where the public wifi comes in handy. Sure I can manually connect to my router, but that's kind of annoying to have to do every day. Is there a way to tell the phone to connect to my router by default when it sees two recognized networks available? Or am I stuck manually connecting every day?
Thanks. - 11-04-2013, 10:47 PM #2

We went down to See the lights in downtown. Had planned to eat at one place, but found a ridiculously long wait time.

My husband and I were just looking for a restaurant with a view of the water in the old city part of St. Augustine. Acapulco offered that in their small balcony. We got the great view, but the tasty food was an added bonus. I had the delicious Fajita Quesadillas (veggie version). It was fresh and mildly cheesy...very authentic with... More
When visiting St. Augustine we visited Acapulco Mexican Restaurant for lunch.We were very hungry and found the food to taste delicious. The portions were large. The 3 of us ate with 2 entrees. The service was very good as well. After we walked in others started to fill up the restaurant. I enjoyed my meal very much and it last... More
We were on a vacation and ate there 2 times. It was so nice sitting on the balcony over the river. The atmosphere was authentic Mexican as was the food. The staff was attentive and very friendly. Thanks
Went here on while on vacation in St. Augustine. The food was really good--even my kids loved it and they're very picky eaters! The service was good too!
Fabian was an excellent server and very attentive. We sat on the porch overlooking the waterfront and the view was wonderful. Food was excellent with large portions and great flavor.
This used to be one of our favorite restaurants in St Aug. (Back alley pizza is still number 1). But on our last visit it was terrible. The upstairs is closed, they said for lack of A/C, but the outside balcony upstairs never had A/C anyway but it did have a great view of the fort and the waterway. But... More
So we just returned from St. Augustine, and we were recommended by two people to go to Acapulco Restaurant on the end by the fort. They both said the food was good and the view was nice. So, we went. Bad choice. Maybe it is because the weekend is busy and we went during the week so the food wasn't... More
We were here for lunch and the portions were very large. The food was quite tasty and the service was just right. Great location.

Has anyone had GOOD luck with a particular KVM switch? I'm typing this from a Belkin OmniView SE-4. I haven't had the slightest problem with it. I've got machines on it running anything between VGA text and 1280*1024*16, and there is no noticeable signal degradation. Keyboard and mouse both work flawlessly, and it copes just fine with the fact that some of my machines are running ps/2 keyboards+mice, some are running AT keyboards and serial mice. It switches between them automatically. You can connect multiple OmniViews to manage more than 4 systems from a single console (up to 4 omniviews -> up to 16 managed systems). I'm very satisfied with it. --Stephen

Lincoln's Announcement of Political Views
New Salem - June 13, 1836
TO THE EDITOR OF THE "JOURNAL" – In your paper of last Saturday I see a communication, over the signature of "Many Voters," in which the candidates who are announced in the Journal are called upon to "show their hands." Agreed. Here's mine.I go for all sharing the privileges of the government who assist in bearing its burdens. Consequently, I go for admitting all whites to the right of suffrage who pay taxes or bear arms (by no means excluding females).
If elected, I shall consider the whole people of Sangamon my constituents, as well those that oppose as those that support me.
While acting as their representative, I shall be governed by their will on all subjects upon which I have the means of knowing what their will is; and upon all others I shall do what my own judgment teaches me will best advance their interests. Whether elected or not, I go for distributing the proceeds of the sales of the public lands to the several States, to enable our State, in common with others, to dig canals and construct railroads without borrowing money and paying the interest on it. If alive on the first Monday in November, I shall vote for Hugh L. White for President.
Very respectfully, A. LINCOLN

Adolescents and young adults have an increased incidence of meningococcal disease compared to the general population, accounting for nearly 15 percent of all U.S. cases annually. However, the majority of cases among adolescents may be vaccine-preventable.
The disease is especially significant among college students, since studies show freshmen living in dorms are particularly vulnerable to meningococcal disease. Adolescents and young adults may be at increased risk for infection due to certain lifestyle factors, such as:
Other risk groups include infants and young children, refugees, household contacts of case patients and military personnel.

Logitech's learning remote gets smarter January 8, 2005; 7:30 a.m. Logitech Harmony 880 Advanced Universal RemoteThe product: After the success of the Logitech Harmony 680 remote control that introduced the Web-programmable universal remotes to the world of Windows Media Center PCs, it doesn't surprise us to see Logitech add more to its Harmony PC family. Available in early Q2, the Logitech Harmony 880 Advanced Universal Remote adds a color screen, a low-profile docking station with battery-recharging capability, and a case design that's more in line with the rest of Logitech's input devices. The price: At $249, this universal remote isn't for everyone, but if you spend a lot of time using a variety of media and PC components, the technology behind Logitech's Harmony series is worth it for the convenience. The prospects: As Media PCs proliferate, the number of components people use them with only gets larger. We have yet to see a better option for controlling all of those parts.

Making Motherhood Safe (World Bank, 1993, 161 pages) |
Women's health has received relatively little attention in developing countries. Maternal mortality rates, for example, show the widest disparity between industrial and developing countries of any human development indicator. The World Bank recognizes that policies to improve women's health are not only humanitarian, but economically sound as well. Well directed interventions to improve women's health, particularly when combined with education, also expand the social and economic capacity of countries through the contributions of those women and their healthier, more productive children.
The World Bank is a cosponsor of the Safe Motherhood Initiative and has assisted in the development of a large and growing number of activities in all regions of the world, designed to reduce maternal illness and death. The number of Bank-assisted projects with safe motherhood components has increased from six in 1987 to more than seventy in 1993.
This paper was prepared to facilitate policy dialogue and program design, implementation and evaluation in maternal health and family planning. The information and direction for the paper came from workshops and conferences, interviews with World Bank staff, research and program evaluations, commissioned papers, and WHO technical documents. The Meeting of Partners for Safe Motherhood held in March 1992 provided a valuable opportunity to explore many of these ideas and project experiences in more detail.
The paper is intended for the use of World Bank staff, but we hope that it will also provide guidance to governments, other international agencies, and nongovernmental organizations in the design and implementation of programs to reduce maternal mortality and improve the status of women. In the words of Lewis Preston, President of the World Bank, "Safe motherhood is a high priority for the World Bank.... We all know what has to be done. We have the means to do it. Together, we can halve maternal mortality by the end of the decade. We can help women have more voice and choice in their lives. We can transform the prospects of this generation of women." And the prospects of all those who follow.

It seems like the current solution I've seen implemented is something like static port mapping with private ip space behind the NAT for most applications. There's still the limited known ports issue (discussed earlier) among several others which are as yet either unsolved or unimplemented on the global scale.again, this doesn't really solve the problem - it only nibbles off a small corner of it. NATs do harm in several different ways - they take away a uniform address space, they block traffic in arbitrary directions, they hamper appropriate specification of security policies, and these days they often destroy transparency. You have to fix all of those problems and still preserve (improve!) the plug-and-play nature of the NAT. what you end up with is something like a router that does both v4 and v6, autoconfiguring itself in both cases (including getting address blocks from upstream networks), with transparent v6, NAT on v4, a sort of generic IPv4 application socks-like proxy built into the NAT that lets v4-only apps allocate outside addresses/ports, accept connections on them, and also initiate connections from them. This sounds workable. But I really question whether there is an adequate userbase who cares enough about these problems enough to support the development and deployment of the more complex system you suggest. The limitations of NAT you mention make little difference to most of the NAT users I am familiar with. These are typically end users or small organizations. They generally don't know what they are missing, and NAT works adequately well for their purposes. I don't foresee them switching or "enhancing" unless there is some killer application as yet unsurfaced which demands it and won't work adequately well with a limited amount of bizarre hacks and workarounds. The financial penalty from using non-natted ipv4 space is less of an issue to larger organizations. When address space becomes a more scarce resource globally will they care enough about the limitations above and beyond what bizarre NAT hacks marginally solve to fund ipv6 implementation? Maybe. I haven't seen any evidence of it yet, but maybe some time in the future they will.

Adair Solar
Phoenix Solar Installation Company
Mar 28
There's no simple way to know before you've had a consultation with one of our solar technicians which solar rebates and tax credits you will be elligible for as an Arizona homeowner. What we at Adair Solar Company in Phoenix are sure of, however, is that you will qualify for some form of solar tax credit or rebate from the state of Arizona and/or from the federal government as well.
"What good will these programs do me?" you may be asking yourself. It depends on some variables that can't be known until you have discussed them with someone who can professionally assess your home, your needs, your finances, and so on. When a solar technician comes out to your home, he or she will determine your home's readiness for rooftop solar panels and a solar water heater installation in Phoenix (or elsewhere in the greater Valley area.) He or she will also assess your finances to help determine which programs, rebates, and credits you can apply for, and tell you which you have been granted once you opt into a solar installation in Phoenix.
You may have heard of specific solar rebate programs or discounts that friends and relatives received. While there is always a good chance you could also be eligible for the same programs, there is always the chance that it may not be the best rebate or tax credit for you and your given financial situation. You have to remember that there are many, many solar rebate programs, and even more solar tax credits from the state of Arizona as well as the United States federal government.
So make sure you set your appointment for a solar technician to come talk to you about which solar rebates and tax credits you are eligible for as soon as you can. Simply dial (480) 827-1162 to get started with your Phoenix solar installation today!

While we at Adair Solar Company in Phoenix support all the advancements in solar energy and all that the hard working people in this industry do to keep the technology fresh, innovative, and cheap, we don't agree that it should be done at the cost of local homeowners.
When we read about "cool new solar programs" that are still very much in their beta phases and haven't had all the kinks worked out, we know that this means a harder time for consumers. We also know that there is a huge bounty of amazing rooftop solar panels, solar water heaters, radiant barrier insulation, and Echo PV installation options that are already here and very ready to start saving you money today.
Make sure you ask the important questions to your solar installer. How long have they been in busness? Do their products come with service guarantees and warranties? Are the products time-tested and approved by consumers or are they "too new to know yet"? When you work with Adair Solar, you are working with 35 years of experience on the solar industry and a team of professionals who care about you and your solar installation in Phoenix!
So while we do want you to have the latest and greatest in solar technology, we also want you to get the most out of what is available to you. It isn't all about saving money–it's also about saving time, and simplifying your life. So if you are ready to "simplify with solar" give Adair Solar Company in Mesa, AZ a call today to schedule your FREE in-home consultation! Just dial (480) 827-1162.

In the wake of solar energy adversaries and those who question the true value of renewable energy in general, President Obama took to the public today to defend solar energy and shared a little about why it's important and what it can do for American citizens and American businesses, as well as the American spirit and economy.
Since becoming the president, Barack Obama has seen 16 very large scale solar projects go up–more than any other president in history. His energy bills and retrofitting/weatherization policies along with his staunch support of wind and solar energy have given rise to some enormous strides in the solar industry, and have helped to continuously drive the cost of solar energy down.
President Obama noted during his speech today that those who oppose solar energy and the channels by which it will become mainstream are not unlike the members of the "Flat Earth Society" during the age of Columbus. While some may see this as a direct jab to the conservative opponents of solar energy, one has to consider that no matter which side of the aisle you're on, seeing solar as a bad thing probably means you have some blinders on. Here in Arizona–a very red state–we are proud to be installing solar panels more now than ever. Solar water heaters in Phoenix are more popular than any other time in Arizona history, and it isn't a partisan issue at all. It's a matter of cooling and heating homes more cheaply by way of using existing local resources, like an abundance of sunshine.
It's that simple for us at Adair Solar Company in Mesa, AZ. There doesn't need to be anymore political arguments–if you need to argue, then debate over the cost effectiveness and the efficiency of various solar installation types, or solar versus nonrenewable resources in areas that have a wealth of sun that can be used to power homes.

This is a fair question, and one that we hear a lot. Many people have heard all kinds of stories that represent everything from to good to be true to baseless rumors about solar energy and how it's not really an energy source—how funny! The truth about a quality solar installation in Phoenix is that it will save you a tremendous amount of money. Exactly how much will depend on you, your home, and what kind of solar installation package you decide on.
For those who choose a full solar install, complete with rooftop solar panels in Phoenix, as well as a solar water heater, and a radiant barrier insulation (and a recommended a/c preventative maintenance package) the lowered cost of your utilities bills will have you rubbing your eyes to ensure what you're seeing on your bill is accurate! Some of our residents have reported utilities bills as low as the single digits!
We hope to provide Arizona residents with the kind of cutting edge solar energy technology that will allow them to actually feed energy back into the grid someday soon. Unfortunately, the utilities companies will have to catch up to the solar technology in order for that to happen, and the electricity grid will have to work in both directions in Phoenix. In places where the grid is set up this way (some call it the "Smart Grid") homeowners with solar panels who generate more energy than they use can actually get money back from utilities companies at the end of the month! These are called "deep green homes."
Adair Solar Company in Mesa does offer a tremendous new solar technology to you that shows how close we are to getting to the deep green point in Arizona. With Echo PV panels, your rooftop literally becomes an energy source that creates enormous potential to power your home. If you want to hear more about how Echo PV works, call today to schedule an appointment with an experienced solar technician at (480) 827-1162.
Until then, don't forget that the solar rebates and tax credits available to Arizonans now for rooftop solar panels and solar water heaters in Phoenix is incredible. Start saving money with a solar install in Phoenix before it gets hot and you start paying more!

According to CNN Money, Americans have not wasted anytime getting solar installations on their homes and businesses–especially when the cost of doing so fell in their geo-specific region.
James O'Toole of CNN notes, "Installations of solar energy systems in the U.S. more than doubled in 2011, according to a new report, fueled in part by declining solar panel costs. The U.S. added a record 1,855 megawatts of photovoltaic capacity in 2011, a 109% increase versus the year prior, said GTM Research and the the Solar Energy Industries Association, a national trade group. The report projects that new installations will increase further to more than 2,800 megawatts in 2012. Average photovoltaic system prices fell 20% last year, with a glut of solar panels hitting world markets."
This is just what we were expecting to hear about looking back on solar energy in 2011 and the first quarter of 2012, nonetheless, it is a wonderful thing to see actually come true!
This means that here in Arizona, solar tax credits and rebates, along with the lowering industry-wide cost of solar panels and installing solar panels in Phoenix, more and more residents of this area are getting rooftop solar panels and other types of solar installations.
When you look at the unbelievable savings you get on utilities bills when you install rooftop solar panels in Phoenix, and with the lowered upfront and overall cost in solar equipment to consumers now, there's no reason not to consider solar as the way to go, especially in a place like Phoenix!

For those who still think solar energy is just a trend, those of us on the West Coast have some news for you! While "Washington Insiders" may be trying to do a number on solar energy and its proponents since the Solyndra ordeal, Adair Solar Company in Mesa is proud to let you know that Palo Alto, California's city council has approved a program to pay back those with solar installations for the energy they create.
In an article from the LA Times, Marla Dickerson writes, "This week, the Palo Alto City Council approved a plan to buy clean power from local utility customers who install solar panels on their roofs. That's right. The power company will pay them, not the other way around.
The arrangement – known by the clunky name 'feed-in tariff' – is still a rarity in the United States. But Palo Alto officials want to help pioneer the effort. They've even rebranded their pay-for-sunshine plan with a clever acronym they hope will catch on: CLEAN (short for Clean Local Energy Accessible Now).
Under a pilot program that will kick off April 2, the City of Palo Alto Utilities will sign 20-year contracts with local producers that will pay them 14 cents per kilowatt-hour.
That's about double what the utility currently is paying for hydro-electric power, Palo Alto's single largest source of electricity. But it's on par with the wind and biogas energy that the city imports from other parts of the region, according to Jon Abendschein, resource planner with City of Palo Alto Utilities.
Plans call for 4 megawatts of solar panels to be installed during the pilot, enough to power about 1,200 homes. Only large commercial projects are eligible for now. But if the test is successful, Palo Alto may expand the opportunity to homeowners."
We look forward to this plan's extension to home owners and think that here in Phoenix we would all benefit from a plan where Phoenix solar installers could provide home owners with a way to feed energy back into the grid with their own rooftop solar panels in Phoenix.
Not sure how far off something like this plan is for Phoenix at the moment, but ASU solar panel installations across the valley, Arizona solar tax credits and federal rebates, along with one of the largest ever solar loans in history having been given to Arizona last year by the Department of Energy bodes well for a fruitful future in solar energy for Phoenix!

CleanTechnica's Tina Casey is on the case (excuse the play on words!) and is informing us of a completely mind-blowing new way that solar energy could be delivered to us in the future. The technology is called "nanoscale silver trees," and Tina's story goes something like this:
"A team of researchers at the University of California, Davis has developed solar energy's Next Big Thing: nanoscale silver filaments grown in a treelike pattern. Just as a tree's leaves collect sunlight over a broad surface area relative to their trunks, the filaments of silver nano-trees would be able to collect solar energy over a broad surface area relative to their supporting structure."
Now THAT sounds cool. But it reminds us a whole lot of that middle school student, Aidan Dwyer who was technically the first person on the books (as far as we've been able to find) who had the idea of creating tree branch-like structures that would deliver solar energy to us consumers in much the same way that it leaves deliver the nutrients from the sun to plants. Read more about Aidan Dwyer's idea from our previous blog about him here.
Nonetheless, nanoscale silver trees has quite a cool ring to it. Casey writes, "Aside from the potential for greater efficiency, the fabrication method (which depends primarily on a chemical reaction rather than mechanical processes) represents a broad approach to lowering the cost of solar energy. Other factors are the cost of materials, the installation process, and the permitting process, all of which are being tackled under President Obama's SunShot Initiative."
Now THAT is the kind of information we in the solar sector are interested in hearing! Lowering the cost of providing solar equipment is always on our minds, because the lower the cost, the more people can afford it, and the less we will have to lean on government programs, meaning the cost of solar energy installations could some day be so low the out-of-pocket cost could be on par with buying a new washer and dryer. Think about that for a minute! Pretty great stuff from some little silver trees

Last year, renewable energy investments in solar energy and wind power technologies in the United States ruled the worldwide market, thrusting the United States beyond China, and into the head spot, based on findings from Ernst and Young in their most recent Renewable Energy Country Attractiveness Index.
Michael Bernier, Senior Manager of the Ernst and Young report states, "The State Attractiveness Indices data enables us to look at specific states and regions and understand what they are doing with renewable energy development and infrastructure on a microscopic level. It enables us to fine-tune the discussion about the overall US market. Moreover, this report uncovers the new national leaders in energy infrastructure. Massachusetts, for example, is a top-five solar market due to a multitude of state-level initiatives, even though it is not the sunniest market. Like Colorado, Massachusetts is building up its research and development in addition to its manufacturing facilities. These factors make renewable energy development in these states possible and further investment probable."
These are important pieces of great news for the solar energy sector across the United States, and prove that solar energy isn't going anywhere but up. REVE.com journalists write, "The continuance of [these] tax credit would have a significant impact on what has become a thriving domestic manufacturing sector."
For places like Arizona, Texas, California, New York, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and others, solar tax credits and solar rebates on the state and federal level will be the spring boards that make solar energy pop over the next several years, so it's important that we all do what we can to take advantage of them, and preserve them as voters.

There, I said it. Or wrote it, I guess.
Now you say it out loud. Right now, go ahead.
Fuck. That's it.
Sometimes, you just have to. I know my high school English teacher Mrs. Nelson is rolling over in her grave right now (unless she's still alive, in which case, sorry Mrs. Nelson!) and screeching from beyond the grave (I think), "Profanity is the last resort of an ignorant person!"
To which I shall respond: "The fuck you say."
The reason I'm tossing the F-word around like fucking candy along a parade route is because of a conversation I had tonight with my soon-to-be-teenaged son, Alex. Today was the second day of school and Alex had a rough one. A little melt down, not really uncommon for him, but still as frustrating as the first time it happened.
Alex struggles with some issues, Asperger's syndrome and ADHD mainly. He is an intelligent kid and capable of much, but anyone familiar with these conditions will understand what daily life is like for him and us. Now throw in the culture of the 7th grade and the looming onset of puberty, and well, that's quite a hormonal psychological stew he's burdened with. He gets teased and was bullied pretty badly the last two years. The older he and his peers get, the harder school is for him.
So I pulled Alex aside today to talk. At first, it sort of started out as a lecture, which was not what I wanted. Eventually, I told him that he and I were in an off-limits zone where he could say anything he wanted to vent and get stuff off his chest. Better to release it than keep it bottled up. He hesitated and looked at me sideways. "Can I say anything I want?"
At first, I said, "No profanity. I don't want to hear it from you." Yeah, I'm a hypocrite.
"OK, never mind then," he said and got up to leave.
I stopped him and said, "OK, fine. Just say whatever you need to say to get it out."
He hesitated again, stammered a bit, then let fly. "Those motherfucking kids on the goddamn bus…" He went on, throwing a couple more bombs in among some more amusing and almost quaint sounding phrases. He gave me a couple more sideways looks, like he was waiting for the stop sign to come up, but I let him finish. And then I talked about stupid people I have to deal with, to this day, and the fact that you won't ever avoid them completely. That it's how you deal with them and not let them affect you. It was a good talk, possibly the first real talk he and I have had.
I try not to cuss just to cuss. But sometimes, you just have to shout a fuck about something, or at someone, or up into the sky. There's a cathartic release in saying that word aloud. Am I proud that my 12.5-year old son is so well versed in the art of profanity? No. But if I remember correctly, I was too at this age, perhaps even more so. We agreed that our one-on-one sessions were the only appropriate time and place for future utterances of that potty word. And in the end, I'm glad we got that out there. It's not some cloud hanging over him, and I hope he feels he can speak to me again in the future, about whatever may be troubling him, without feeling he needs to hold back.
All that bonding, thanks to the word 'fuck'.
Sometimes, you just have to say it.
