As an advertising executive, Ray Ackerman may best be remembered for overseeing the creation of the B.C. Clark's Christmas jingle or the "Thank Heaven for 7-Eleven" campaign.
Oklahoma City civic leader, advertising executive Ray Ackerman is remembered
As a civic leader, Ackerman is fondly remembered as "Old Man River" — the man who more than anyone else made the Oklahoma River a reality through sheer will power. Others may recall him as a proud Navy veteran, a fighter pilot who later rose to the rank of admiral.
Moreover, Ackerman, who died Wednesday morning in his northwest Oklahoma City home at age 90, is being remembered.
Ackerman's passing was observed Wednesday by Gov. Mary Fallin and Lt. Gov. Todd Lamb, both of whom noted his promotion of the city and efforts to bring life to the Oklahoma River.
Oklahoma City Mayor Mick Cornett called Ackerman a "can-do guy," adding that he was part of a minority of civic leaders who pushed for development of the river against the skepticism of many others who thought it could not be done.
Larry Nichols, executive chairman of Devon Energy Corp., called Ackerman "a true leader" and "shameless promoter" of all matters involving Oklahoma City.
"He had a heck of a life, an incredible life," said Angus McQueen, chief executive officer of Ackerman McQueen, the firm built by Ackerman. "His 80s were as exciting as his 30s. He had a heck of a company here before I came here."
A lover of rivers
Ackerman was born in the riverside Pennsylvania city of Pittsburgh — a detail cited by himself and those who knew him as a key to his love of the Oklahoma River.
He served five years in the U.S. Navy as a fighter pilot, and once survived a fiery crash with another plane. He moved to Oklahoma City in 1947 and worked early on as an advertising salesman with The Oklahoman while earning a degree during night school at Oklahoma City University.
After graduation, he joined a staff of four at the George W. Knox Advertising Agency, a firm he acquired in 1954. Two years later, Ackerman's firm created the B.C. Clark Christmas jingle, a song that remains an annual holiday favorite and is widely considered the most well-known local advertising campaign in the city's history.
Between 1954 and 1970, Ackerman grew the firm's annual billings from $250,000 to $6 million. In the early 1970s, he was joined by the father-and-son team of Marvin and Angus McQueen.
Under their combined leadership, the agency grew from handling only local accounts to serving major accounts such as the National Rifle Association, Daisy Air Rifles, Nocona Boots, Resistol Hats, Food and Wines from France, Holland-based Droste Chocolates, Pizza Hut and Sheraton Hotels.
When Ackerman retired from active leadership and became chairman emeritus of the agency in 1992, its billings topped $92 million. It is now the largest agency based in Oklahoma and ranked in the top 2 percent of all agencies in the United States, with annual billings topping $200 million.
Ackerman's dedication to civic service was noted early on, and included an unsuccessful run for mayor in 1967. For 20 years he served as chairman of the hosting committee for the National Finals Rodeo.
Friends note Ackerman never retired.
Roy Williams, president of the Greater Oklahoma City Chamber, noted Ackerman is unique in that he served a brief stint as president just before serving as chairman in the late 1980s. He is also the only person to have an annual award issued in his name by the chamber.
"We've not had someone like him before, and likely never will again," Williams said. "Ray lived and breathed the chamber. I don't know if we ever had anymore more supportive of the chamber."
It was as chamber chairman that Ackerman helped lead planning for quality of life improvements to the city that ultimately became a part of the Metropolitan Area Projects fathered by former Mayor Ron Norick.

Vikings deactivate receiver Jarius Wright for eighth consecutive week
Get the 1500 ESPN SportsWire delivered to your inbox daily, and keep up with all the news in Twin Cities Sports
MINNEAPOLIS -- Jarius Wright has reached the halfway mark of his rookie season without dressing for a game.
The Minnesota Vikings announced Wright among their seven inactives for Thursday's game against Tampa Bay, along with quarterback McLeod Bethel-Thompson, cornerback Brandon Burton, safety Mistral Raymond, linebacker Audie Cole, offensive lineman Mark Asper and tight end John Carlson.
Wright, the fourth-round draft pick from Arkansas, suffered an ankle injury in the preseason finale at Houston but has been healthy for some time. But the Vikings are moving forward with the other five receivers on the roster: Percy Harvin, Jerome Simpson, Michael Jenkins, Devin Aromashodu and Stephen Burton.
It wouldn't be unprecedented for Wright to sit out the entire season. Two Vikings draft picks last season, offensive lineman DeMarcus Love and end D'Aundre Reed, were inactive for all 16 games in 2011.
Raymond (ankle) and Carlson (concussion) had been ruled out on Wednesday's injury report.
Cornerback Brandon McDonald, who had been listed as questionable with an ankle injury, was active for the Bucs. So was end Da'Quan Bowers, who was activated from the physically unable to perform list hours before kickoff.
Inactive for the Bucs were: cornerback Myron Lewis, running back Michael Smith, defensive back Keith Tandy, linebacker Najee Goode, guard Cody Wallace, receiver Chris Owusu and tight end Danny Noble.

University of California, Berkeley, chemists have found a smoking gun proving that increased fertilizer use over the past 50 years is responsible for a dramatic rise in atmospheric nitrous oxide, which is a major greenhouse gas contributing to global climate change.
Climate scientists have assumed that the cause of the increased nitrous oxide was nitrogen-based fertilizer, which stimulates microbes in the soil to convert nitrogen to nitrous oxide at a faster rate than normal.
The new study, reported in the April issue of the journal Nature Geoscience, uses nitrogen isotope data to identify the unmistakable fingerprint of fertilizer use in archived air samples from Antarctica and Tasmania.
"Our study is the first to show empirically from the data at hand alone that the nitrogen isotope ratio in the atmosphere and how it has changed over time is a fingerprint of fertilizer use," said study leader Kristie Boering, a UC Berkeley professor of chemistry and of earth and planetary science.
"We are not vilifying fertilizer. We can't just stop using fertilizer," she added. "But we hope this study will contribute to changes in fertilizer use and agricultural practices that will help to mitigate the release of nitrous oxide into the atmosphere."
Since the year 1750, nitrous oxide levels have risen 20 percent – from below 270 parts per billion (ppb) to more than 320 ppb. After carbon dioxide and methane, nitrous oxide (N2O) is the most potent greenhouse gas, trapping heat and contributing to global warming. It also destroys stratospheric ozone, which protects the planet from harmful ultraviolet rays.
Not surprisingly, a steep ramp-up in atmospheric nitrous oxide coincided with the green revolution that increased dramatically in the 1960s, when inexpensive, synthetic fertilizer and other developments boosted food production worldwide, feeding a burgeoning global population.
Tracking the origin of nitrous oxide in the atmosphere, however, is difficult because a molecule from a fertilized field looks identical to one from a natural forest or the ocean if you only measure total concentration. But a quirk of microbial metabolism affects the isotope ratio of the nitrogen the N2O microbes give off, producing a telltale fingerprint that can be detected with sensitive techniques

Another view of Mick Jones joining Joe Strummer on stage in Acton, November 2002
I know, I know; second post in two days and hoping that people are coming back to read it. This is it I hope, the end of a barren spell when finding the time to write and the discipline to do so eluded me for a while. I blame the government/weather/royal family/economy. Anyway I do plan to get back to near daily updates so I sincerely hope you'll be along for the ride. If checking back isn't the most convenient thing for you just add the facebook page for the blog to your likes or sign up for the RSS feed/feedburner and it'll come directly to you.
A quick thing to be getting on with, which is a must see video which can be easily accomplished by hitting the play button below. This was one of those things that got sent to me during the hiatus and I wanted to make sure it got included today. Of course by now you're all very familiar with the historic Joe Strummer and The Mescaleros concert for the FBU at Acton Town Hall on November 15th, 2012. That was the night when the unscheduled appearance of Mick Jones up on stage during Bankrobber and for the final numbers of the evening's set changed Clash history permanently. Not only was it the first time the two had shared a stage since Mick's dismissal from the band almost twenty years earlier it also was a symbolic moment that the friendship of the two was once more cemented. Those who were there saw something that most of us would give our eye teeth for. What are eye teeth? In the decade since I hope you've all seen the excellent recorded footage of proceedings by Alan Miles which went on to make the documentary "The Last Night London Burned" for posterity. I've watched that countless times as it makes for such an emotional 'wish i was there' moment that was able to somehow bridge the decades. As if that wasn't enough the significance was magnified ten-fold by Joe Strummer passing away the following month.
What I hadn't seen until very recently was another view of the same moments captured by an audience member. The sound and video quality aren't exactly stellar but that is a bit like criticising the tyres on a 1973 Jensen Interceptor which of course is my preferred car to be ran over by should my life happen to end that way.
Mick Jones joins Joe Strummer and The Mescaleros in Acton, November 15th 2002
The video is above and if anyone knows the full identity of the owner (Steve Duff?) please let me know so I can say a fuller thank you. Watch it first just for the full experience but then go back and watch Joe do a double-take, Mick finding the years apart have been erased and both of them probably sensing that this was so long overdue. Hope you like it half as much as I've done. Have a good night Clash people.

Areas of Focus
The Ghazi Lab is currently focused on the following two key areas of research.
Proteasomal Modulation of Aging Pathways
The programmed destruction of regulatory proteins by the proteasome pathway is widely used for controlling many important biological processes including aging. Previously, we discovered that the proteasomal pathway regulates aging in C. elegans. In mutants of the insulin/IGF-1 receptor daf-2, which live twice as long as normal worms, proteasomal E3 ligases are recruited for the ubiquitination and likely degradation of cellular proteins that inhibit longevity. Current research in our lab is focused on the identification of such E3 ligase substrates whose degradation is essential for lifespan extension.
|The intertwined worm and proteasome in this schematic represents the significance of C. elegans as a tool to study the role of the proteasomal pathway in controlling the rate of aging.

|Normal, fertile worms with an active germline have a normal lifespan (top). When the germline is removed from the gonad, transcription-regulatory proteins called DAF-16/FOXO and TCER-1 get activated in intestinal cells and lifespan is extended (bottom).

Reproductive Control of Aging
Aging and reproduction are two fundamental aspects of an individual's life, and the intersection of these processes is an exciting research topic in its own right. Traditionally research has focused on the lamentable loss of reproductive capacity brought on by increasing age. However, recent discoveries in worms, flies and mice have shown that signals from reproductive tissues influence aging as well.
In C. elegans, removal of a population of reproductive cells called Germline Stem Cells (GSCs) extends lifespan. This lifespan extension is brought about by activation of multiple transcription factors in intestinal cells, including a conserved pro-longevity determinant called DAF-16/FOXO and a transcription elongation factor called TCER-1. Our research aims to study these genes and other genes and molecules that transmit signals from reproductive GSCs to the somatic tissues and thus control aging. We are actively involved in the molecular dissection of a network of transcriptional regulators that appears to extend worm lifespan in response to reproductive stimuli.

Rate Dr. Amir H. Tahernia
Dr. Amir H. Tahernia's Ratings
I came to Dr. Tahernia with a severe case of Hidradenitis Suppurativa in my perianal and groin regions. I was unable to sit down and under immense pain. This did not allow me to work, and my family was seriously affected having to cope with the impotency of not being able to help me at all. Being the sole provider of five, this had become a family emergency since I was about to have to go on permanent disability and end my beloved engineering career.
This incurable disease is one of the most challenging skin diseases that a surgeon can encounter. I had learned about Dr. Tahernia's reputation on the web, but after engaging several doctors and having multiple surgeries for many years, I had reasonable doubts. Once I met Dr. Tahernia in Los Angeles, he gave me confidence and courage. He was honest with me and told me that it would be a long and hard battle in order for me to fully recover, but that he felt good about the outcome. Well he was right. It took 10 surgeries with general anesthesia and almost four weeks in the hospital. Now I am back home in North Carolina recovering and owing my life (literally) to Dr. Tahernia's magic hands that have gave me a new chance to live life to its fullest. My "incurable" disease is slowly disappearing and the prognosis is excellent.
Dr. Tahernia is a rare find among the jungle of physicians out there. He is always on top of the situation taking carful care of you. I was even able to call or text him on weekends or from the hospital at odd hours, and he would always respond or take immediate action when necessary, even if it meant sacrificing important family time.. I will never forget that, especially when I remember those scary times in the hospital. His staff is also one of a kind ready and willing to act immediately to resolve your problems.
HS is curable ! --- Please see Dr. Tahernia if you're serious about getting better. At advanced stages, HS is NOT cured with home remedies, general surgeons, antibiotics, dermatologists or support groups that go nowhere... It requires a decisive and strong knowledgeable hand to conduct a radical removal of the affected area.
Thank you Dr. Tahernia for your compassion, knowledge and dedication... You will always be inspiration to me... May God bless you.

Donald LaFontaine, the voiceover artist who became famous for recording nearly 5,000 movie trailers passed away on Monday, September 1.
Here's the tribute from his official website:
"Over the past 25 years, LaFontaine cemented his position as the 'King of Voice-overs'. By conservative estimates, he has voiced hundreds of thousands of television and radio spots. At last count, he has worked on nearly 5,000 films. Based on contracts signed, he has the distinction of being perhaps the single busiest actor in the history of the Screen Actors Guild.

Can Your Town Beat Champ Village, Missouri?
March 29, 2010
Champ Village, Missouri is currently the champ of Census 2010 participation. Eighty percent of its residents have already returned their questionnaires.

The best thing about this video is the auto worker. Check out that Michigan accent.* *Although I frequently hear this accent in what is now my home state, a source close to The Treatment e-mails that it's actually "an upper-plains accent–Minnesota, Wisconsin, the Dakotas." I take the rejoinder seriously, since the source happens to be a well-known authority on all things Michigan.

Actor Wilmer Valderrama, Radio DJ Edgar "Shoboy" Sotelo Headline CHCI's Ready to Lead at UT Arlington
|View the Facebook Gallery
Last week, the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute celebrated its latest Ready to Lead event at the University of Texas at Arlington, in the Dallas region. Nearly 300 local high school students gathered in UT Arlington's beautiful College Park Center, where they were trained in college planning, financing a college education, and leadership development.
Students received financial literacy training from representatives from the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, as well as a college planning workshop presented by UT Arlington's Office of Admissions. CHCI Alumni Jessica Gonzalez, Gypsy Gavia, and Janet Arias presented the Leadership Development workshops. Most importantly, the participants had the opportunity to hear the stories of nearly 30 mentors, who came to plant the seed of leadership in the hearts and minds of our participants. Alan Dorantes of AT&T introduced the activity, and was joined by many of his AT&T colleagues who served as mentors, along with CHCI Alumni, local college students, business leaders and more. The goal of R2L is to help Latino high school students enter postsecondary education by motivating them to complete high school, empowering them to serve and lead in their communities, and instilling a belief that a college education is achievable.
The day's program was bookended by two powerful and motivating speakers. Local radio personality Edgar "Shoboy" Sotelo started the day with his message that all students can choose to be champions. Wilmer Valderrama, the official spokesperson for R2L, closed the day with a powerful keynote address encouraging students to find something they love and pursue it with dedication.
With the support of AT&T Foundation, State Farm Insurance Companies, the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, the University of Texas at Arlington and Capital One Bank University Crossroads, R2L was able to impact the lives of young Latinos in Dallas and empower them to attend college.
CHCI is proud to continue educating, motivating, and empowering Latino youth in the greater Dallas area.

The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) continued its trend of finding common personnel policies invalid because, according to the NLRB, employees could read the policies to restrict protected union activity. The NLRB has long held that an employer's ban on solicitation that is limited to working time, or on distribution of literature that is limited to working time and working areas, is valid. However, the NLRB ruled that Target's policy went too far because it prohibited employees, at all times while on Target's premises, from soliciting, distributing literature and selling goods or services for "personal profit" or "commercial purposes." The NLRB found that Target's restriction on selling goods and services for "commercial purposes" could potentially be understood by employees "to mean something different, including solicitation and distribution for other organizations, such as unions." The NLRB said its reading of the policy was supported by Target's statements during a union organizing campaign that a union is a "business" that "sells membership." Employers should consider revising similar policies to define "commercial purposes" in a way that explicitly excludes otherwise protected union activity.

Intel® Software Partner Program
A Simple, Effective Measure of Software Optimization
Quickly and easily determine how well your software products are taking advantage of Intel technology with the growing selection of Intel® Software Assessment Tools.
Measuring how well your application is optimized for Intel technology-based systems is an important part of gauging overall quality, and the more objective the results are, the better. In the real world, customers can be harsh in their assessment of your products, but Intel Software Assessment Tools give you vital intelligence in advance, as well as recommendations to help make your software perform better. It's an advantage you can't afford to pass up.
The Intel Software Partner Program introduced the first two offerings within the growing series of Software Assessment Tools in late 2009:
Intel® Concurrency Checker
verifies how well software takes advantage of Intel Multi-core Technology.
Intel® Graphics Checker
makes sure that 3D-based games run great on systems with Intel® Graphics.
The program is committed to making more Software Assessment Tools available in 2010 and beyond. The latest, which are newly offered, include the Intel® Media Checker and Intel® Manageability Checker tools. Like their predecessors, these tools provide a quick, efficient way to measure how well software takes advantage of Intel technology, as well as the means to improve on those results.
Intel Media Checker Complements the Intel® Media Software Development Kit
Makers of video applications all over the world have discovered that the Intel Media Software Development Kit (Intel® Media SDK) is the most effective way to ensure high performance encoding, decoding, and pre-processing functions across the broadest range of platforms. Software companies have found that the ability to develop for a common Intel Media SDK application programming interface (API) results in improved software quality and development efficiency.
The Intel Media Checker works hand-in-hand with the Intel Media SDK to provide detailed information about the application's use of the Intel Media SDK to perform video encode, decode, or pre-processing function calls for WMV, H264, or MPEG-2 formatted video stream during a 30-second sample workload measurement.
Intel Manageability Checker Improves Efficiency of Management Software Development
Network management applications have gained dramatic new capabilities through the use of Intel® Active Management Technology (Intel® AMT). This set of hardware features provides for remote discovery, configuration, and management of business PCs based on Intel® vPro™ technology, even if they are powered off or have missing or damaged operating systems. To improve development that takes advantage of these capabilities, makers of management software now have the Intel Manageability Checker.
The primary function of the tool is to work with a network sniffer to filter out and capture Intel AMT network packets, enabling the following benefits:
Simplifies development
by sharpening developers' focus on packets relevant to their efforts
Provides alerting
to notify developers when a specific type of Intel AMT packet is generated
Improves traffic analysis
by allowing export of Intel AMT packets to TXT or PCAP format
A Growing Constellation of Benefits
Like all Intel Software Assessment Tools, these new offerings are easy to use, fast, and built to easily integrate into your development lifecycle. Assessing an application typically takes no more than an hour. What's more, the tools are regularly refreshed to support each new generation of hardware, helping to future-proof your applications and simplify maintenance.
Once testing is complete, the tools generate a Software Assessment Report that allows you to upload your results to get recommendations for improvement and to compare your success anonymously both against your competitors and compared to suggested levels provided by Intel.
Upcoming webinars and promotional programs will add even further to the value of the growing body of Software Assessment Tools. Visit the Intel Software Assessment Tools resource page to learn more about how to take your software to the next level:

What a weekend in St. Lucie County: March 8-10
If not completely sprung, spring definitely is in the process of springing. How else to explain these two opportunities this weekend to get your hands dirty gardening?
The St. Lucie County Cooperative Extension staff and master gardeners will have a free workshop from 9 a.m. to noon March 9 at the Port St. Lucie Botanical Garden, 2410 SE Westmoreland Blvd. You'll learn about planting and pruning trees and shrubs, vegetable gardening, fertilizing, identifying and managing pests and maintaining an irrigation system. For information, call 772-462-1660 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.
Master Gardner Adina Lehrman will teach you when and how to grow summer crops, why to grow cover crops, ways to use green mulches and how to prepare fallow gardens and composts for the next growing season, all from 1 to 3 p.m. March 10 at Heathcote Botanical Gardens, 210 Savannah Road in Fort Pierce. Cost is $20 for Heathcote members, $25 for nonmembers. For information, call 772-464-4672.
The cat's out of the bag: Everybody seems to know that the place to be March 9 is the Pelican Yacht Club, 1120 Seaway Drive in Fort Pierce, for the ninth annual Fur Ball & "Cat"-sino Night benefiting the Humane Society of St. Lucie County. The Western-themed evening will include dinner, cocktails, live and silent auctions and Las Vegas-style gaming in "Miss Kitty's Silver Spur Saloon."

Indian River Drive in Fort Pierce.

Pope backs Brazilian bishops' Lenten drive against human trafficking
Catholic World News - March 05, 2014
Pope Francis has strongly endorsed a Lenten campaign by the Catholic bishops of Brazil to rally opposition to human trafficking.
The Brazilian bishops have chosen human trafficking as the theme of their annual Fraternity Campaign, conducted during Lent. In a message of support, the Pope says: "It is not possible to remain indifferent before the knowledge that human beings are bought and sold like goods!"
The Pope continues: "I think of the adoption of children for the extraction of their organs, of woman deceived and obliged to prostitute themselves, of workers exploited and denied rights or a voice, and so on." He argues that Lent offers opportunities not only to confront this outrage, but also to examine one's conscience and ask, "have we permitted a human being to be seen as an object?"
"Be sure, if I offend the human dignity of others, it is because I have previously divested myself of my own," the Pope says.

NYC New York Color Kiss Gloss Review and Swatches: Beauty on a Budget
'ello, 'ello recessionista beauty junkies!
If you're in need of a delicious little gloss that has a thicker formula and long wear but aren't interested in a high price tag, do check out NYC New York Color Kiss Gloss.
An under $2 gloss bursting with delicious flavor and a quality formula.
Well aren't these a cute little surprise. Each gloss will set you back a mere buck ninety nine so they'll definitely fit the bill for anyone with a tiny beauty budget but no worries you aren't forsaking quality with these sweet little glosses.
I picked up two limited edition shades but NYC New York Color has four general catalog shades that are always available. The shades I got were Kickin' Coral and Pink Punch both of which have a nice dash of color, nothing dramatic mind you but they do give a nice tint to my lips as well as intense shine. Kickin' Coral comes across orange but subtle and shiny while Pink Punch gives lips a nice tinge of pink. The glosses are flavored like a yummy bubble gum but the flavor is barely there and not overpowering.
Best part about the gloss?
The incredibly long wearing formula. It's super thick, super sticky, and super tacky. All key ingredients for a long wearing gloss. It makes my lips look fuller and gives a great shiny finish.
Those who hate sticky, tacky glosses might wish to avoid as these definitely have a heavier formula that can be felt when worn and does feel super sticky on lips. I don't mind so much as this formula allows it to wear longer than a more thinner formula however those who aren't comfortable with such a formula or worried about their hair sticking to their lips and such might wish to avoid. Another words don't leave the house on a windy day with your hair down and a load of Kiss Gloss on your lips….it won't be pretty!
- Anyone seeking a gloss with a tiny price tag a great formula.
- Anyone who wants a long wearing gloss with a super shiny finish!
- Those sensitive to flavor and fragrance in their gloss.
- Anyone who doesn't like heavier gloss formulas or thicker ones with a sticky feel.
I liked these alot and think they deserve a purchase. I wouldn't go too crazy in hauling several if you have a large stash of gloss but definitely purchase at least one for layering on lipstick, tucking into your desk drawer, or makeup bag. New makeup users will love the inexpensive price tag as they can get several shades to add to their smaller collection without breaking the bank.
A fabulous little pick for the beauty budgetor!
Muse Approved for purchase!

awesome! I happen to love sticky lip glosses! thanks for the heads up on this
9/16/10 22:00 Ellie:
I got this in the Pink Lemonade flavor… loved the flavor but, sticky? More like the consistency of glue! When I opened my mouth you could see little gloss-strands being stretched between my lips O.O lol
9/17/10 4:54 Jennie:
I have one in Coral Reef & one's MIA but it's a plum color, both of which I bought at the same time. I love the flavor — I thought it was vanilla more than bubble gum, but I'm not good at blind taste testing. LOL.
My complaint is that I cannot for the life of me get the color to show up on my lips. All I get from both colors is just a pretty shiny clear lip gloss look. Well, at least it was cheap.
12/25/10 2:11 Janet:
These NYC Kiss Glosses are something i buy again and again and again, i am on my third tube, pink lemonade and cherry flavor. Pink lemonade NYC gloss is a Mac pleasure principle lipglass dupe . The only difference is the price tag. Cherry is good to pair with cover girl berry lipstain..
1/8/12 16:54 Prin:
I just bought TriBeCa Tangerine! I was hoping for a bit more colour, but my lips already have a nice colour, so I'm ok with it! I also was put off by the smell at first as it was extremely sugary and sweet, but it's ok! And it definetly was NOT as sticky as I expected it! I was SO impressed, and want to go back and buy more XD I think they must have reformulated it to not be so sticky!

SOMETHING RETAIL THIS WAY COMES – It's expected that people will come to Hyannis to stop and shop at Kohl's, as the national retailer reportedly signed a lease at Southwind Plaza.
Confirmations are difficult to come by, but there's enough good information to say it's very likely Kohl's department store will be opening in the former Stop & Shop location in Southwind Plaza.
While there's been speculation about Kohl's filling the space since Stop & Shop moved ahead with construction on its new store a year ago, it was an item in Premier Commercial Real Estate's Oct. 1 newsletter that prompted new inquiry.
"Our sources tell us that a new Kohl's Retail Store is slated to open in the space formerly known as Stop and Shop in Hyannis at the Home Depot Shopping Plaza," Premier's president John Ciluzzi wrote.
"At this time, we've not announced any plans to open a new store in your community," Geetha Natarajan, public relations coordinator, wrote in an email exchange with the Patriot. "Kohl's has an ongoing real estate assessment process. At any given time, Kohl's is reviewing sites in communities nationwide. We do not comment on real estate speculation."
The Cape Cod Times reported Oct. 4 that a lease had been signed.
Calls placed to Barnstable's Growth Management Department and Town Manager Tom Lynch referencing Kohl's were not returned by press time.
Last week, Kohl's announced the grand opening of 12 new stores representing 1,500 jobs. Of those, 11 are the chain's small-format stores of approximately 64,000 square feet.
Based in Menomonee Falls, WI, Kohl's describes itself as "a family-focused, value-oriented specialty department store offering moderately priced, exclusive and national brand apparel, shoes, accessories, beauty and home products in an exciting shopping environment."

When John Rich learned George Jones had passed Friday morning, he took a glass of Crown to his roof-top deck, sat down facing Vanderbilt University Medical Center and pictured a beam of light bringing George to Heaven, reports USA Today. Then he called friend Larry Gatlin to join him that evening for their own private memorial at John's house.
"We're not going to be sad, we're going to celebrate 'the Possum,'" Larry said, adding that he never called George by his nickname to his face as "Mr. Jones'" music played in the background.
Country Stars Remember George Jones >>
Remembering George Jones: Photo Gallery >>
"You can after the fact," John agreed. "But he was Mr. Jones." John recalled an especially comical moment with the country legend. He'd visited George in a bar he used to own downtown. George walked in, chomping on chewing gum, and took in John at his table.
"He said 'John, all those bottles belong to you?' I said, 'Yes, sir, they do.' He said, 'My God, son. It's a good thing we both weren't young at the same time.' I said, 'Why is that, George?' He said, 'Because one or both of us would be dead by now.'"
Following George's death, his wife, Nancy, called John personally to tell him her husband loved him. "She was shook bad and she was crying," John said. "And I said, 'Why are you calling me? You don't need to worry about calling people like me.' She said, 'You don't understand. George loved you.'"
Before George died, Larry had written him a song for his final album. George never got the opportunity to record it, but Larry plans to record it himself for his old friend. "Every gutbucket country song I ever wrote, I had George Jones singing in my ear," he said.
George's memory, as well as his music, will live on for generations to come. "How many songs you think will be written today about George Jones?" Larry asked John.
"Starting today and this coming week, that's all Music Row is going to be writing about," John replied. "Whether it's about him or inspired by him, George Jones will impact the entire industry again. To think that you broke an entire genre's heart. Anyone who respects music respects George Jones."
Watch Larry perform the song he wrote for George Jones HERE.

Goodbye to Big Blue!
1 comment:
I stumbled upon your story from a friend that works at CBS Sacramento, and I have to say that I know exactly how you feel.
We (KSNV Las Vegas) are in the process of retiring our 30 year old SNG truck and it's a bag of mixed emotions.
She was also the first truck I ever learned on, along with a dozen or so operators that came and went through our doors.
I will miss hauling all 32-feet of her around crowded streets, up and over medians and sidewalks and the occasional interstate drives.
The Sprinter that's replacing her will have some big shoes to fill, and the memories? Those will die off along with our "Big Blue".
Here is a picture I took of her last shot, perched on a sidewalk in downtown LA.

Changing TV with Google
With the recent Google I/O developers' conference, Google had their chance to unveil their latest goodies from their bakery. Besides the Froyo, there is the Google TV, set to compete with Apple TV. The Google TV is the first application of the Android operating system on another platform besides mobile devices. It will let consumers watch television, view content from the internet and even run apps downloaded from the Android App Store. Even with a standard television, consumers will be able to access content from the internet and run applications. This is done by using mice and wireless keyboards to input data.
Companies including Sony, Adobe, Logitech and Intel were together with Google in making the announcement during the conference sessions. Devices that would be used along with the Google TV technology include blu-ray video players, set-top boxes as well as televisions which have the Google software technology already built in. What makes Google TV handy is that it has be developed to work with the existing setup a consumer has in terms of satellite boxes or cable, With this major collaboration with numerous companies, Google hopes to reinvent the television experience by letting consumers interact, customize and personalize their television screens, much like a large smartphone.
These will be made available in the US sometime during autumn this year. This new technology utilizing the Android operating system will be primarily available in the US, which hopefully will be available in other countries afterwards. "As usual, we expect to make Google TV available in due course in other countries, but our plans currently only extend to the US," according to one of Google's spokespersons. The Google TV SDK or software development kit will be made available to developers "soon after launch," sometime around 2011. Content will be made promoted and distributed through Google's App Store.Android, Google TV

"We're seeing productive, organized discussions focused on intense topics."
"Pebble Creek classrooms create a safe learning environment where kids take risks, where there are no absolute rights or wrongs, where "just because" is not an argument, where there are classroom libraries that house books that kids are grabbing off the shelves and reading with pleasure."
"It is this thematic approach that sets the Pebble Creek materials apart from other programs. They are guided in an authentic interaction with high quality, respectful text that is not watered down. The materials are also not packaged in a cumbersome anthology that, to a disengaged student, is an immediate obstacle to learning. In addition, the spiraling construction of the materials allows repeated opportunities for the student to be successful."
"Students are engaged in their own learning. It's not just by chance that there are many fewer class management issues. Student engagement is the best class management tool there is."
"A good thing is happening when I can walk into our pebble creek classes and students spontaneously share with me the good books they are reading. We are creating a culture of readers and learners."
"Differentiated instruction, a buzz word constantly thrown around educational circles, suddenly made sense, and I had the tools to differentiate for my gate kids as well for the kids that were struggling with grade level materials."
"With the units, I could focus more energy on effective instruction and creating a truly learner-centered classroom and less energy around supplementing or re-creating teacher-made materials."
"It is this thematic approach that sets the Pebble Creek materials apart from other programs. They are guided in an authentic interaction with high quality, respectful text that is not watered down."
"The time set aside for Academic Conferences became a vital element to developing our teachers' practice and orientation toward their students. It conveyed a sense of mission and purpose that went beyond "passing the state assessment."
"All over campus it is normal to see kids reading a book that they chose to read."
"The training and experience that I have learned through PCL have dramatically enhanced my effectiveness as a teacher. It has not only made it more interesting and dynamic for my students, it has done the same for me."
"Teachers who teach classes other than the literacy course want to learn about the strategies and ask for the Pebble Creek training. Pebble Creek teachers have become ambassadors for the instructional strategies and initiate their use in other courses."
"Our students are performing better on achievement and proficiency tests. Our non-English language learning population has a passing rate on our state assessment that would earn the school a "recognized" status. The campus was the only school out of four to meet NCLB's requirement of adequate yearly progress after only two years of implementing the program. As importantly, our students read…and like it. Across a school with over 500 ninth graders, a visitor can walk in at anytime and find at least one class where the students are reading. Several content area teachers have commented that they have seen better performance and engagement with texts."
