"Thrive did a great job building my online store. I wasn't always sure of some of the decisions that were made in the construction process but Michael has won my trust! Recently, five suppliers I had lined up to purchase from, visited my site. Normally they require a "buy-in" for an initial order which can be upwards of $10,000. When they saw my site, they were calling ME to represent them. They waived their buy-in and are getting in line to be a supplier."

"Michael combines several talents to create an incredibly valuable service for his clients. He is part designer, part technician and part business strategist, making him a formidable partner. I've enjoyed working with him, and I've learned a lot from him."
Web development project, Sedgwick County Health Department
"What does it for me when it comes to Thrive is their dedication to detail. Thrive takes the time to really listen to what I want and need and then make sure that they produce exactly what i asked for. I really appreciate their customer service, Michael and the team isn't perfect but when they make a mistake their team jumps on it to make sure any problems are resolved in a timely fashion. If you need an web-application built that works, I recommend Thrive!"

"Thrive has always been there when I needed them- I call and they answer. I have been working with Thrive for nearly 5 years now and over that time their consistency has made me a committed fan. I switched away at one point but I quickly learned that was a big mistake. Now I'm back and man am I glad. I can honestly say that Thrive has made me look good to my customers and mady me money!"
Richard Means- Devon Luggage
Web design & development, Knollas Pizza on 13th
"Thrives customer service has really impressed me. When I call they solve whatever I throw at them right away. I have been processing credit cards and have had my website with them for three years now and the rates have always been fair. Most importantly, they have integrity. I have never had to question if Thrive is doing something with my rates or service that I should be concerned about."

"Michael is not only a man of great vision, but a man who has the mind and ability to take that vision apart and see it happen one step at a time. He does so with a steadfast spirit about him in a confident but gracious manner. When you are around Michael you are caught up in the same confidence that together what has been set out to do will indeed be accomplished. I can't say enough good about this man!"

"Michael is a man of high character and competence. He accomplishes what he sets out to do. I recommend his services without reservation."

-- so joining us now is doctor David clock.
Who is an intentional pain management specialist and also the coauthor of pain -- a patient's guide.
To pain management chat which proposes some alternatives.
To the more traditional pain management methods thank you so much doctor clock for joining us.
Think you all and end this epidemic.
It's it's a very serious epidemic when you look at this statistics and what's going on in this country over the last ten years it's frightening.
For the first time in history.
Drug overdose has surpassed motor vehicle accidents as the number one cause of accidental death in this country.
And ended that was a really -- statistic and -- in thirty states -- the number one cause and nationally now.
It's the number one cause there's been more than a 100% increase in the number of emergency room visits.
Part of the problem is I think people think these drugs are safe because there.
Legal prescriptions.
But they're just as dangerous as the legal illegal drugs -- does -- and if you don't take them properly.
Well and I guess the question you know we've seen high profile celebrities like Matthew Perry of friends coming out -- saying that he became addicted to prescription medications.
After he went in for some of legitimate.
Medical procedure.
And that the doctor prescribed him some pain killer.
And didn't really given any warning about how dangerous this drug might be and how incredibly addictive it might be.
And sure enough he started popping them like candy and eventually developed a problem and he feels and many others that doctors need to get -- kind of let.
Warning when they're prescribing used it for a legitimate pain management purpose.
I think you're absolutely correct what you have to recognize is that eighty to 90% of positions in this country.
-- had no formal training in the use of these medications.
And that obviously pose a problem because they're not aware of how to manage these properly.
Of our national society the American -- -- international paying positions has been pushing with and some federal agencies to mandate well.
Physician training in the use of these medications if you have a DA licensed.
There is a balancing act and not make that too much in the in terms of training and to not -- An undue burden to positions but you also need -- have some basic level of training.
There was some legislation that was -- discussed last year.
And and I can tell you that the Office of National Drug Control Policy is still working with a number of a legislative offices to try and bring alleges.

Solve Op Note Mysteries With This Fracture Glossary
Posted on 10. Aug, 2009 by .
CPT code selection is easier if you know your fracture anatomy. Illustrations included!
Fractures are defined as a disruption in the integrity of a living bone, bone marrow, periosteum, and adjacent soft tissues. Fractures occur when a bone cannot withstand outside forces, the integrity of the bone has been lost, and the bone structure fails. Fracture care usually involves the expertise of an orthopedic physician who monitors the fracture's healing. The ultimate goal is to secure union and to restore normal function.
Fracture healing involves 5 phases:
- fracture and inflammatory phase
- granulation tissue formation
- callus formation
- lamellar bone deposition
- remodeling
Become Familiar With Site Vocab
Orthopedic coders also need to understand the many eponyms and terms that pertain to specific fracture. They will help you to recognize a fracture's location. They are:
Bankart fracture — This is usually seen with an anterior dislocation of the shoulder where a small piece of bone is detached from the anteroinferior rim of the glenoid bone.
Bennett fracture — The thumb is dislocated dorsally at the metacarpal. There is often an associated avulsion of the metacarpal on the volar surface of the metacarpal articular surface.

These activities and others like them enrich our students immeasurably, enhancing the education they receive at UIS—but we could not do any of them without the discretionary money given to this fund.

He was employed by the Internal Revenue Service from 1948 until he retired in 1975.
The net income from this fund awards a scholarship to either an entering or currently enrolled undergraduate accountancy student who has clearly defined career goals and leadership ability.

Sikich provides accounting, assurance, tax, and consulting services to privately held companies and their owners, governmental entities, and not-for-profit organizations. Nationally ranked in the top 50 CPA firms, Sikich is one of the fastest growing regional firms in the Midwest. For the past eight years, the firm has received the highest level of recognition conferred upon a public accounting firm for its quality control systems. Because the scholarship is unrestricted for undergraduate accountancy students, the scholarship qualifies for a 1:1 Access Illinois match. UIS is proud to receive a scholarship in support of accountancy students from Sikich–especially one that doubles its impact for students through the match.
Donald F. Stanhope Scholarship
When beloved Professor of Accountancy, Don Stanhope, decided to retire, his colleagues immediately purposed to establish some sort of worthwhile tribute in honor of the man they called the "founding father of the Accountancy department." Thus, the Donald F. Stanhope Alumni Scholarship was established in 2001 by faculty, alumni and friends of Dr. Stanhope in the spirit of his commitment to the program.
During Dr. Stanhope's tenure, the Accountancy program at UIS received national acclaim with two of its CPA exam-takers achieving the nation's highest pass rates for first-time CPA exam takers. In addition, nine accounting majors have won the prestigious EXCEL award for top performance on the exam. Colleagues and students alike credited the consistent achievement levels of UIS Accountancy students to personalized instruction from Dr. Stanhope and the other Accountancy professors.
Each Stanhope scholarship awards the recipient a minimum of $1,000 per academic year. Preference is given to students who have completed at least one core course in Accountancy and who are planning a career in accounting along with attaining professional certification (e.g., CPA, CMA, CIE, CFA).

Rumney family unbowed by fire that destroyed home
"Everyone's healthy, that's the key," Charles Buckley said with a grin. "We lost some material things, but we're Christians and Christ is still on the throne, so we'll be fine."
Buckley and his wife were away from the family's three-story, 5,300-square-foot home at 500 Depot St. when firefighters said a fire in the home's chimney spread to the attic. Buckley's wife was out of state, attending the funeral of her sister, and Charles Buckley was elsewhere in town.
Kristen, 15, said she was sleeping when her sister Shaina, 18, woke her up at about 7 a.m. Saturday.
"The smoke alarms were going off and the neighbors were calling saying the house was on fire," she said. "I could see the smoke in the house as we got outside."
Both fled the house, making sure they got the family's dog and two cats were safe with them. The family hamster died in the fire.
Family and friends comforted the sisters and her father as the house burned.
"I didn't realize the whole house was going to burn up, or I would have gotten more from inside before I left," Kristen Buckley said.
The family is living in a home with the help of friends. They were loaned several laptops by a local business, which will help Charles Buckley keep his engineering business going.
The house was fully insured, Buckley said.
"Now it's just a matter of my wife picking a new house plan, however long that takes," he said. "We'll get the new one built quickly."

The new-look Boston Celtics begin their home schedule Friday night when first-year head coach Brad Stevens leads his crew into a matchup with the Milwaukee Bucks. Stevens, the 37-year-old who made his mark at Butler in the college ranks, saw his undermanned team - now void of longtime stars Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett and without the injured Rajon Rondo - fall at Toronto in the season opener on Wednesday. Jeff Green scored 25 points but the Celtics were outrebounded 48-33 in falling 93-87.The Bucks had Boston's number last season, taking three of four games - including both meetings at the Celtics. One of those came in Boston's home opener a year ago Saturday, which snapped a string of five straight wins for the Celtics in their opening home game. Milwaukee, coming off its second postseason berth in the last six years, began the season with a 90-83 loss at New York on Wednesday in Larry Drew's first game at the helm.TV: 7:30 p.m., FSN Wisconsin (Milwaukee), CSN New England (Boston)ABOUT THE BUCKS (0-1): Milwaukee showcased some remarkable streakiness within games last season and displayed that quality again in its loss to the Knicks, who outscored the Bucks 56-31 in the first half before Milwaukee stormed back to take a lead with just over three minutes remaining. "My message to the guys at the halftime was I didn't care about whether we won or lost, I cared about us playing the way I know we're capable of playing," Drew told reporters after the game. "That's all we did in the second half." Bucks starters combined for just 29 points and starting point guard Brandon Knight left with a strained hamstring that has him doubtful for Friday's contest.ABOUT THE CELTICS (0-1): The rebounding issues that plagued Boston in its opener may be a new challenge for Stevens but it is familiar for the Celtics, who were last in the NBA in rebounding differential in previous head coach Doc Rivers' last season on the sidelines. Nineteen of Toronto's 48 boards came on the offensive end, which enabled the Raptors to hoist up 20 more shots than their opponent. Brandon Bass chipped in 17 points on 6-of-7 shooting for Boston and Kris Humphries - one of six new Celtics to see action Wednesday - did his part with nine boards in 21 minutes.BUZZER BEATERS 1. Celtics F Jared Sullinger is expected back after serving a one-game team suspension.2. Milwaukee returns home to open play at the Bradley Center on Saturday, eight days after a preseason game there was halted due to a slippery new surface. The floor used last season will be placed back on for the first few weeks of the season.3. These two teams combined to commit 46 turnovers in their season-opening losses.PREDICTION: Celtics 92, Bucks 86

He was editor of the Journal of Irish Archaeology (2000-06) and is currently co-director, with Dr Mark Stansbury (Classics Department, NUI Galway) of a major research project: Columbanus: Life and Legacy, funded under the Programme for Research in Third Level Institutions (PRTLI-4).
Terry O'Regan, Landscape Alliance Ireland
Terry O'Regan founder (1995) and on-going Co-ordinator of Landscape Alliance Ireland is Council of Europe landscape expert and Member of the European Landscape Convention (ELC) Steering Committee. A Graduate in Horticulture (UCD) with some 38 years' experience of the Irish landscape industry, Member of the Irish Landscape Institute and the Institute of Horticulture, he practises as a landscape and environmental consultant. A life-long member of heritage/environmental NGOs, he convened the National Landscape Forum Series (7 no. to date).

He has also contributed to, and edited the proceedings of, the National Landscape Forum and created the website: www.landscape-forum-ireland.com
Jeff Bishop, BDOR
Jeff Bishop (along with Ian Davison) of BDOR invented Village Design Statements as part of 'research' for the English Countryside Commission on improving the standard of rural design. They tested the approach in practice before drafting the national guidance material (available on the Heritage Council website). To ensure real and lasting success, BDOR led the production of videos and newspaper/journal articles, as well as designing and delivering a national series of VDS training courses. Since then, Jeff has run further VDS training at local and national levels, offered specific support to many VDS groups and local authorities across the UK, run training on VDSs in Italy and promoted the concept in (for example) the USA and Slovenia.
Jeff's other work with BDOR includes national research (he is described as the 'architect' of the pro-involvement changes in the UK planning system), training in the UK and other countries on community engagement and facilitation (currently for all middle managers in the National Environment Agency), and leading edge planning and regeneration projects (for example in Salisbury and Harlow). Jeff is an Adviser to the UK's Sustainable Development Commission and has been a Master class tutor in community engagement for the OECD.
Professor Stephen Owen
Professor Stephen Owen has conducted major evaluations of Village Design Statements (VDSs) in England for the English Countryside Agency in 1997 and again in 2001, concluding that VDSs were proving a valuable planning tool for local communities. At their best they were seen to generate a spirit of genuine local community development and to be a worthwhile formal planning tool at both local planning authority and parish council levels. Stephen is a chartered town planner with over forty years' experience of research and practice in rural settlement planning. He has been Chair of Gloucestershire Rural Community Council and Chair of Gloucestershire Rural Development Commission.
For 11 years Stephen was Dean of the Faculty of Environment and Leisure at the University of Gloucestershire. Stephen's main areas of research are design in the countryside and reconciling community-led planning initiatives with strategic planning. He has published a number of refereed papers specifically evaluating the role of Village Design Statements (VDSs) in the planning system and has published extensively in the fields of sustainable rural settlement planning and community-led planning.
Alison Harvey, Planning & Development Officer, the Heritage Council
Alison Harvey is an experienced environmental planner and qualified project manager with a background in economics and community-led regeneration. She has been involved in the formulation and implementation of city, town and village design and development/regeneration studies and strategies throughout Ireland, for almost 13 years. Prior to joining the Heritage Council, Alison was a Senior Consultant with a Dublin-based consultancy. Shortly after joining the Heritage Council in December 2004, Alison initiated and developed the Irish Walled Towns Network (IWTN). This all-island initiative, now with an annual grant of €2m from the DoEHLG, has a strong emphasis on public participation including landowner workshops, participative Steering Groups, Irish Walled Towns' Day (in conjunction with National Heritage Week), etc. Alison prepared the IWTN's first 3 Year Action Plan 2006-2008, based on facilitated workshops.
She revised the VDS process in February 2006 and the new participative process was adopted for the Lucan VDS (and all Heritage Council-sponsored VDSs completed since 2006 to date). She was also Chair of the Lucan Village Design Statement Steering Group (IPI Awards 2008 – Participatory Award (Certificate of Merit)) and is Project Manager of the National Evaluation of VDSs Project. She is also involved in her local village improvement group in Ballon (BIG), Co. Carlow.

Why the fire in a perfectly healthy jet engine can die.
- By Peter Garrison
- Air & Space magazine, September 2006
In the early afternoon of May 24, 1988, TACA Flight 110, a Salvadoran Boeing 737 arriving from Belize, was picking its way among thunderstorms ringing New Orleans when the unthinkable happened: Both of the airliner's jet engines quit. Frantically, the crew members tried to restart them. At first they thought they had succeeded: Okay, one crew member radioed to controllers as the craft descended through 4,000 feet, we've got both engines back now. But relief evaporated less than a minute later. The engines would not accelerate from idle speed, and dangerously rising tailpipe temperatures forced the crew to shut them down again.
I don't think that I will make it, I don't have any power on the engines here sir, so I guess we having to go down, we have to go down, we declare emergency....
TACA 110, there is the interstate highway directly ahead of you....
I don't believe we gonna be able to make it there sir, we're at 2,000 and we're losing altitude.... The only thing I do right now is make a 360 and I'll land over the water sir.
TACA 110, I show your altitude now 700 feet.
Seven minutes later another airplane, at the request of the air traffic controller, flew over the area where the 737's radar target had disappeared. The pilot caught sight of the airliner incongruously parked on the embankment of a levee beside Lake Borgne, its escape chutes deployed. With remarkable airmanship, Captain Carlos Dardano had dead-sticked the 737 onto a mile-long patch of rain-soaked earth. The airplane and its passengers were unharmed.
What happened to TACA 110 is called a flameout. The term is casually used for any failure in a turbine engine, but its technical meaning is more narrow: power loss not associated with a mechanical failure. A flameout of one kind or another is thought to occur once in every 100,000 non-military flights.
Three things are needed to keep a jet engine going: fuel, air, and the heat to make them burn. Removing any of the three can cause a flameout. In the case of TACA 110, what was taken away was the "activation energy"—the heat. The engines had been throttled back for descent, and their supply of internal heat was minimal; heavy rain and hail simply doused the fire. The event was not unique. Nine months earlier, an Air Europe 737 descending through rain and hail over Thessaloniki, Greece, had suffered a double flameout. In that case, the crew managed to restart the engines and land without trouble. In 2002, a Garuda Indonesia 737, also descending among thunderstorms, suffered a double flameout over Java. Its crew ditched the airplane in a river; one person died, and there were a dozen serious injuries.
Water and ice aren't the only things that can turn off the fire in a jet engine. Unexpectedly, so can fuel. Obviously, running out of fuel is a good way to stop an engine, but too much fuel can have the same effect, if it comes from the wrong place.
Walt Larimer, a retired U.S. Air Force navigator, remembers an incident from the late 1950s in Morocco. An F-100 pilot, a novice at aerial refueling, couldn't get hooked up to Larimer's KB-50J tanker. It took many attempts, but the pilot finally managed to engage the refueling drogue, only to fracture the coupling at the end of the fueling hose a moment later. Jet fuel began to stream out. The fighter, whose engine air intake is in its nose, dropped back and inadvertently slurped up some JP-4. A muffled explosion could be heard from inside the F-100, and flames emerged from its front and rear ends simultaneously. The fighter, its engine spooling down, dropped from sight while a fellow pilot who had been waiting for his turn at the hose shouted restart instructions.

I would like to say that I was part of the crew of TACA flight and it amazes me to read this information on what occured that day. To me, it felt like we were not going to make it. It´s a miracle landin, as the news called it.

I congrat this perfect Pilot and Co Pilot. Nerves of steel are required.
I have heard of the Captain, he is a very talented person
Posted by anonimo on December 30,2008 | 05:45 PM
I would love to hear more about Captain Carlos Dardano, but you hardly even see the story of flight 110 anywhere.
Posted by Cary Woodson on April 6,2009 | 04:31 AM
We thought Capt. Sully was the first person to achieve a mark of that nature but 21 years ago 5 ft 4 inches tall Salvadoran pilot managed to carry out a feat much more difficult than the Hudson emergency,unfortunately Capt. Carlos Dardano stage and ethnicity did not assist in bringing him to the world center stage of great piloting skills.No offense but in my opinion that is always the case,third world person then third class recognition.
Posted by Dorn Ebanks on June 9,2009 | 02:23 PM
I know both Captain Carlos Dardano and Captain Dionicio Lopez personally, and applaud them for such couragous landing. They do deserve merit in aviation history. The world must recognize them as heroes. Best wishes to both of them and also the inflight crew on flight TA110/24MAY
Posted by w j j on November 21,2009 | 01:41 PM
Another thing to add to Captain Dardano is that he only have one eye, the right eye, he lost his left eye during the Salvadorean war.
He is and amazing pilot!
Posted by Frank on January 17,2010 | 06:59 PM
It´s important to say that there were three pilots in that aircraft that day, Capt. Carlos Dárdano, F.O. Dionisio López and Instructor Arturo Soley, who war directly involved in that amazing landing. Congratulations....

What an amazing landing. Chances of survival is rare in a situation like this. Landing off the runway without engines on power? God! What an amazing team work by the pilots...
Posted by Marshall on April 20,2012 | 05:54 PM
I just watched the YouTube "MayDay" story about Capt. Dardano's outstanding and amazing performance when faced with such incredible odds.
It is my opinion Capt. Dardano's experience and impeccable airmanship ranks among the top in the profession.
With all due respect for Capt. Chesley Sullenberger, Capt. Dardano's story is far more deserving of such recognition as the miracle on the Hudson flight received.
Capt. Dardano, you are the man.
All the best,
Capt. Jimmy
Posted by Capt. Jimmy Powers (USAir / EVA Retired) on June 24,2012 | 10:27 PM
A good pilot does not fly right into a severe thunderstorm. The pilot was negligent.

2009This Celebration Board has been a lot of fun in our home.
Its our family's place to write any reason at all to celebrate for the day.
It just makes me smile looking at some of the reasons my kids come up with!
This was MY reason to celebrate- our whole family seen by the dentist and not a single cavity in anybody's teeth!
Here's how to make your own:
I used the front of a drawer from the As-Is section at Ikea that I bought for $1.99
Dry-Erase Glass Calendar
2009This is one of the most popular projects I've ever shared on Somewhat Simple!
MATERIALS: All you need is a glass frame, a sharpie marker, a ruler and vinyl stickers if you have them. (If you dont have them, just write the labels yourself with the marker, or email me- I will get you some!)Here is the frame I chose:The frame was the perfect size, but watch out, the permanent marker is not as easy to rub off of the plexiglass!
Fabric Flower Headbands
2010White Elephant Gift
2010One of the most popular projects featured on Somewhat Simple, this White Elephant Gift is not for the faint of heart! Please only keep reading if you have a sense of humor and promise me you won't leave any negative comments. If you don't like it, walk away! :)
At our Valentine's Party, we asked each couple to bring a white elephant gift. This glass block "decor" was the present Rob and I brought. It was meant to be a total joke, but ended up being the hot item of the night! So hot, in fact, I have made some more since the party for friends who were there and wanted one for their own home!And I have to give my Brother in-law, Jason, total credit for this quote! He is the clever one in the family!
Vinyl letters
A glass block ($5 or so at Home Depot in the window section)
1. Clean the glass block with some rubbing alcohol or window cleaner and let it dry.

2011Father's Day Remote Control Cookies
2011It's time to start thinking about what to get dear old Dad!
Father's Day is June 19th and that's reason enough for me to make some cookies!
There's no going wrong with a tie for your Dad.
Actually there is... your picky Dad/husband might take it back for a different design.
I'll correct myself, there's no going wrong with an edible tie!
Just make up a few colors of royal icing and arm yourself with squeezie bottles and toothpicks.
With a tie cookie cutter, and a few simple cookie basics, you are on your way to making some stylish ties.
My kids helped me with these, and they're going to the freezer now. I have frozen dough and cookies before, but it wasn't until recently that I tried freezing frosted sugar cookies. And guess what? It works! So these things are going to resurface on June 19th!
But I felt like I wanted to try something a little more "out of the box." So I racked my brain for some other man-cookie ideas. It's not easy. But I decided on making a remote, then put it in a box.
Ideally this would accompany the gift of your husband's dream TV. But if you're me, you wouldn't dream of picking out a TV on your own. But I think this would be great wrapped up with a DVD, or simply a promise that you give your man some alone time with sports center.
How do you make a remote cookie, you ask? You don't have that cookie cutter?
I just put my actual remote in my copier/printer.
Then I cut it out, put it on my cookie dough and cut it out with a small knife.
You can use this method to make just about any shape of cookie you can imagine.
1. Outline 2. Fill 3. Let dry 4. Make your buttons by looking over at your remote.
Mine ended up a little off center, but that's okay!
To decorate the buttons, I used these edible markers with a fine tip. These things are just beyond fun.
They write on (dried) royal icing, really well! You may just want to color all over your cookies!
I added some candy on the bottom because the box I found was a little deeper than I wanted.
My Dad came over and saw this and said it was "unreal." He was impressed with my craziness!
I thought it was so real, I might just make one for April Fool's Day and replace it with the real one.
Or, if you've lost the remote and you're hubs is real mad, just hand him this and I'm sure he'll simmer down just fine. Hehehaha!
Oh the possibilities! Silly possibilities.
I hope you are inspired to make some custom cookies of your own. Don't be afraid to use copy machines, knives and markers. We do what it takes here in the cookie world!

For those that quit balling two or three decades in the past, though, it gets a little trickier.
Take Art Harris.
If you're like me, the name Art Harris draws a blank. Bob Love? Check. Spencer Haywood? Duh. Tommy Kron? Foggy, but I know the name.
But Art Harris? No dice.
Well, let's fill in a few of the blanks.
- Born Arthur Carlos Harris, Jr. in Los Angeles on January 13, 1947
- Graduated from Jordan High School, the same high school in Watts which produced Florence Griffith Joyner and Charles Mingus
- One of Stanford's most prolific scorers, named All Pac 8 as a sophomore
- Averaged 20.7 ppg for the Cardinal in 1967-68, including a couple of 30+ point outings
- Named a member of Stanford Athletic Hall of Fame
- 17.2 ppg career average is 7th best in school history
- Drafted by Sonics in second round of 1968 draft
- Averaged 12 ppg his rookie season
- Led NBA in disqualifications
- Named to All-Rookie First Team, the only Sonic guard ever to receive that honor
- Played only 5 games for Sonics in 1969-70 before being traded on Oct. 25 to Phoenix for Dick Snyder
- Remained in Phoenix for the next three seasons, then out of the league
And, finally
- October 2007, Art Harris RIP
I came across Harris' passing on the NBA's Retired Player Association website a year ago, and meant to pursue a story about him for the past twelve months. Occasionally, I would dig a little bit into his past, but I never got very far. Always, I thought, there'd be time to find out more.
Now a year has passed since Art Harris died, and I still don't know anything more about him.
Here he was, a kid from Watts, who got a scholarship to Stanford, one of the greatest academic institutions in the entire country, goes on to make the NBA's All-Rookie team, gets traded to Phoenix, then fades from memory.
What happened to Art Harris? What did his post-NBA life entail before he died at age 60? The NBRPA doesn't even know the exact date of death, only a vague "mid-October" with no mention, either, of the location. The Stanford University site equally draws a blank, not even reporting his death until three months later, while the Seattle Times and PI were completely silent about the event.
Look at that team photo from 1968-69. Harris is the second from the far right, right next to Lenny Wilkens. Oddly, while all the other players were staring right at the camera, Harris stares to his right, his face in profile. Was he laughing at a joke from Bob Rule? It's as if, 40 years later, he's trying to make himself even more of an enigma.
Hey, I get it, he was an obscure player on an expansion team going nowhere. But couldn't you say the same thing about Jeff Green? Sure, it's possible Green will go on to greatness in the NBA, but the odds are more likely that within 5-8 years he'll be long-gone from this league. Will his death 40, 50, 60 years from now pass as quietly as Harris?
A beautiful aspect to the internet is the way it facilitates communication. Perhaps someone reading this site will unearth a kernel of information, which will blossom into a full-blown story. Hopefully, someone out there can educate me as to what happened to Art Harris. Feel free to email us (see the top of the page), or fire off a comment below.

Ann Arbor says residents don't need to worry about chopping up fallen tree branches following storm
Melanie Maxwell I AnnArbor.com
In other words, don't worry about having to fire up a chainsaw or getting out an ax to chop those branches in front of your house down to size before putting them to the curb.
Melanie Maxwell I AnnArbor.com
Melanie Maxwell I AnnArbor.com
Gray said residents should place any tree branches, limbs or woody debris in the extension between the sidewalk and the curb, being careful not to block or intrude on the sidewalk or street.
If there is a tree branch blocking the sidewalk or street, residents are encouraged to contact the forestry department at 734-794-6364.
Ann Arbor officials announced plans for dealing with downed trees and branches on Wednesday after more than 7 inches of heavy snow tore the limbs off many neighborhood trees, and in some cases took trees down entirely.
City officials said residents can store storm-damaged tree limbs on their lawn extension — but not in the street — for future city collection. The initial plan is to provide two citywide passes to collect tree branches from extensions, with the first pass to start the middle of next week.
Residents can keep informed of the tree branch-collection plan by subscribing to updates via the city's e-notification service. Go to www.a2gov.org/subscribe, click on the red envelope icon, and select the "news" and "snow removal" topics from the subscription menu.
At least 10 trees came down overnight and city officials said those were removed by 7 a.m. Forestry crews were brought in overnight to address the volume of tree-related issues, giving priority to downed tree limbs obstructing traffic and plowing operations. Outside contractors also were deployed to assist with the city's tree-related issues.
City officials said neighborhoods with old, mature trees appear to be hardest hit, especially in the Burns Park and Arbor Hills area, but downed limbs are being reported across the city.
The city also is asking drivers to move their vehicles from neighborhood streets until the weekend to allow the city to effectively clear snow and debris.

DENVER -- The wandering, highs-and-lows life of successful playwrights brought Florida natives Lauren Feldman and Matthew Lopez to a peak last weekend — specifically to the Mile High City and the Denver Center Theatre Company's eighth annual Colorado New Play Summit.
Dreamed up by producing artistic director Kent Thompson when he joined the Tony Award-winning company, the Summit lures playwrights, directors, actors, theater company representatives and arts journalists to Denver for a jam-packed weekend devoted to that holy grail of American theater: the great new play.
Feldman, who grew up in Kendall and graduated from Miami Sunset Senior High, is a Cornell University and Yale Drama School grad who teaches playwriting and is currently studying at the New England Center for Circus Arts in Vermont. Lopez, a Brooklyn resident and Panama City native who focused on acting at the University of South Florida in Tampa, has a sizzling-hot career thanks to the wide regional theater success of his three-character Civil War play The Whipping Man. Along with five other playwrights from around the country, the two traveled to Denver to watch audiences see their new plays.
Feldman's play, Grace, or the Art of Climbing, centers on a young Miami woman named Emm who literally climbs out of her depressed state by taking up the sport of climbing. As the seven actors perform the physically challenging drama, they ascend, traverse and descend metal beams with hand-holds and foot-holds — beams that get rearranged like Emm's thoughts about friends, former lovers and her challenging father. So that they could be in top form as actors and climbers, the cast got an extended rehearsal period and training from ex-Miamian Kynan Waggoner, a climbing consultant who trained Feldman while she was working as a South Florida actress, playwright and staff member at City Theatre.
Interested in physical theater (hence her current circus training), Feldman began writing Grace while she was still at Yale. Her first attempt didn't work to her satisfaction, so she scrapped it and wrote a new script. But she was certain that a play about a young woman climber could work.
"I was passionate about it, and I knew that world very well. I thought it would be exciting to put on stage," she says, though she notes that the play isn't autobiographical. "I had been writing a lot of talking-head plays. I was hungry to give every head a body."
Lopez, the nephew of actress Priscilla Lopez (she originated the role of Diana Morales in A Chorus Line), is now a staff writer on Aaron Sorkin's HBO series The Newsroom. He is writing plays for several major theaters on commission, even as 15 theaters are doing productions of The Whipping Man this season, making it one of the country's most-produced dramas. His Summit play, the hilarious and touching The Legend of Georgia McBride, is wildly different from The Whipping Man. And it's very much a product of the Panhandle town where he lived until he went off to college at 18.
"Everything about my hometown informs the play. The energy of it. The pace of it. You really need to enter that world," says Lopez, who started performing in Panama City community theater at age 5. "It's not a great place for a young gay boy to grow up. But I'm proud of it. I own it."

What Logisticians Do
Logisticians analyze and coordinate an organization's supply chain—the system that moves a product from supplier to consumer. They manage the entire life cycle of a product, which includes how a product is acquired, distributed, allocated, and delivered.
Work Environment
Logisticians work in nearly every industry. The job can be stressful because logistical work is fast-paced. Most logisticians work full time during regular business hours.
How to Become a Logistician
Although an associate's degree is sufficient for many logistician jobs, candidates increasingly need a bachelor's degree to advance beyond entry-level positions.
The median annual wage of logisticians was $70,800 in May 2010.
Job Outlook
Employment of logisticians is expected to grow 26 percent from 2010 to 2020, faster than the average for all occupations. Employment growth will be driven by the important role of logistics in an increasingly global economy. Job prospects should be best for those with a college degree and work experience related to logistics.

Researchers at Johns Hopkins University say that they have successfully implanted the first pacemaker.
For the brain.
As a possible treatment for alzheimer's.
Doctors say the device sends electrical impulses to the area of the brain that feeds memory.
In an effort to stimulate them -- -- memory loss.
If this trial is successful it could be a major victory against alzheimer's.
Experts say one in eight Americans.
Over the age of sixty viable eventually develop the disease.
One of the doctors overseeing -- clinical trial joins us now doctor Paul Rosenberg is an associate professor of psychiatry and behavioral studies at Johns Hopkins.
At the school of medicine -- -- good afternoon congratulations and thank you.
Thanks for having -- chat tell us what this thing is and how this thing works if you would.
So this is that's very similar it was surgery that's used routinely now.
In severe Parkinson's disease.
What you do is you -- the neurosurgeon.
Drills drills to -- little skull.
And guides to very thin wires to each side of the brain.
And then those wires attached to other wires which go under your skin.
And eventually go to what looks like a pacemaker a thriller like a battery sits just under your shoulder -- And what the battery does is it sends electrical impulses through the wires.
And -- impulse is actually drive the brain may actually increase the neural activity the electrical activity of the brain.
Does this -- over 80000 times in Parkinson's disease.
We're starting to use it for alzheimer's and the differences were stimulated different part of the brain -- stimulating a part of the brain that we know.
It's involved in memory circuit so -- hammer different different Nelson.
Statement this is -- the team at Johns Hopkins the first to perform this thing.
I wonder the degree to which you think isn't gonna have a real impact on patients' lives.
How did it it might well have a real impact.
There's a couple things that could come out of this.
Obviously we're hoping that the -- that the that the surgery works.
-- we have some preliminary data from an open label trial that means everybody got the stimulation.
Done in Toronto and we we not only found some evidence of memory improvement.
But we also found some evidence that we might be slowing down the that that the decline in the disease what we're doing now is a controlled trial.
Half the people we'll get the stimulator turned on immediately.
And the other half we'll wait a year before we turn it on and it was a controlled trials so I don't know.
Who's got it turned audio patient doesn't know I'm -- I'm down as time -- thanks a lot.

Visitors are often treated to an appearance by Whistler's local wildlife while exploring the area's valleys, slopes, forests, creeks and rivers.
Bears are seen roaming the valley trails or foraging on the mountain slopes. Sightings of deer, marmots and other animals are also common.
Self-guided tours and hikes are an easy way to see wildlife – take a gondola ride up the mountain to spot bears or deer foraging on grass and berries, or hike into the alpine where small mammals and birds like pikas and whiskey jacks congregate. Bird watching for eagles is popular in Brackendale, south of Whistler.
Guided Whistler bear-watching tours are also available, while a guided canoe tour is a great introduction to the fish (such as rainbow trout and kokanee salmon), waterfowl and marine animals that live in Whistler's lakes and streams.

Whistler's coastal hemlock-cedar forests are home to some 50 black bears. Join hiking, bear-watching and wildlife tours to venture out with expert guides that interpret the natural habitats and curious habits of Whistler's other locals.
Wildlife enthusiasts have a wide range of tour options. Hiking, canoe, kayak, ATV, 4X4 and even helicopter tours offer excellent wildlife viewing opportunities.
Visit the Whistler Visitor Centre in the heart of Whistler Village to investigate guided tour options.
Hiking in Whistler means sharing the mountain trail with the local alpine residents. Keep an eye out for these timid yet tenacious creatures:
Pika: One has to be quick to spot the shy pika. This small mammal has short, wide-rounded ears, is related to the rabbit, and can be found grazing on rocky slopes.
Black-tailed deer: Swift of hoof, these graceful creatures feed on mountain vegetation through the summer and fall. When the snow falls, they retreat to nearby valleys, taking cover in old-growth forest away from snow predators.
Marmot: These small, stocky creatures like to bask in the sun all day, so look for their brown, bushy tails and whitish bellies as they stretch out on rocks. They live in burrows that can run up to 12m/39ft underground. Whistler takes its name from the whistling sounds made by these local creatures.
Birds and other animals: Whistler's most common – and notorious – bird is the whiskey jack, well known for stealing food from the hands of unsuspecting hikers. Eagles, red-tailed hawks, grouse and osprey can also be seen. The lakes and wetlands are home to blue herons, ducks and other waterfowl.
Other animals that may be seen around Whistler are raccoons, beavers, river otters and coyotes.
Whistler has five lakes and several streams, all of which can provide interesting wildlife viewing. Whistler's River of Golden Dreams is popular for canoeing and features excellent wildlife viewing along its meandering path.
Crabapple Creek Follow the flowing waters of Crabapple Creek in Whistler to where the stream meets the Valley Trail. Rainbow trout can be seen spawning in the creek in May and June and kokanee salmon in September and October.
Millar Creek Rainbow trout can be seen spawning here in May and June.
The River of Golden Dreams Lake and river dwellers can be seen on a guided or self-guided canoe trip down the River of Golden Dreams. Paddle this slow-moving route and watch the banks for beaver, otters, fish and waterfowl. Black bears are sometimes seen along the shores as well.
