Former neighbors remember Trooper Butterfield
Tue, 10 Sep 2013 23:42:33 GMT —
Police officers are mourning the loss of Trooper Paul Butterfield along with former neighbors of the fallen officer.
Up until two years ago, the trooper lived right across the street from Paul and Jan Gavlinski.
The couple is shocked and saddened after finding out about the life taken too soon.
Paul said he met with Trooper Butterfield over coffee this past Sunday.
The couple that lives just outside of Manistee remembers seeing the trooper outside his home and coming across the street to chat.
Jan said Trooper Butterfield enjoyed martial arts and taking care of his cats. She was friends with the trooper on Facebook and shared photos and memories.
The couple also shared their gratitude for Trooper Butterfield's service to the community.
â??I remember Paul as a very good neighbor. He lived right across the street from us and always a friendly wave. Always a friendly greetingâ?¦ it just shows the risk these guys take and gals take and hats are definitely off to them. It's a great service they provide. I, and we all should be grateful for,â?? said Paul Gavlinski.

Charming Charlie coming to Tampa Bay!!!
Accessories lovers, get ready to be charmed.
Charming Charlie, a fashion accessories chain, is opening up later this month at the Shops at Wiregrass in Wesley Chapel. And the chain is negotiating with Tampa's WestShore Plaza for a second location. (Thanks, Times retail writer extraordinaire Mark Albright for that scoop.)
I'm as giddy as a child in a candy shop. Why? For the uninitiated, this store is AMAZING. Imagine being able to find all the latest accessories trends, conveniently organized by color, for $10 to $20.
Really. And the stuff looks nice.
I stumbled into a Charming Charlie by accident on a trip to Orlando and it quickly became my must-stop shopping destination when in town. How much do I love it? I would skip H&M to visit Charming Charlie. And I'm not even an accessories girl.
Anyone else experienced the love? Can you help me to describe how great this store is?
Deal Diva Letitia
(Photo: Just one example of what's in stores now: This summer marble bauble necklace is $9.97 at Charming Charlie.)

Removing a fireplace from your home can get rid of an unused fixture and provide a new, clean wall for decorating. It will also eliminate drafts from an open chimney. However, removing a fireplace is a labor-intensive task, especially if the fireplace is surrounded by masonry, such as bricks. You'll need time and patience, as well as the right tools, to remove the entire fireplace and leave the wall opening ready for sealing and repainting.
Things You'll Need
- Demolition hammer with chisel bit
- Masonry saw
- Metal pry bars
- Socket set and driver
- Safety glasses
- Work gloves
- Ear plugs
- Dust mask
- Dust pan
- Hand broom
Chisel away the brick fireplace surround with a demolition hammer that has a chisel bit installed. Break away the mortar between bricks whenever possible, then remove individual bricks or chunks of brick by hand. Begin near the top of the brick surround and work downward to avoid a collapse.
Cut away bricks that are difficult to access with the demolition hammer using a masonry saw. Work from top to bottom until the brick is gone and the fireplace insert is visible.
Remove any bolts that hold the fireplace insert into the surrounding walls using a socket and driver. Detach the fireplace door and remove any visible mounting brackets using the appropriate sockets.
Sweep away masonry chips and dust as you work with a hand broom and dust pan. Check for loose bricks before hammering since they may become dislodged when the bricks around them are removed.
Insert one or more pry bars into the gap between the fireplace insert and the concrete foundation or masonry walls. Pry slowly to loosen the insert before removing it completely. Pry away the thin metal flue, which is the duct that attaches to the top of the fireplace insert to allow smoke into the chimney.
Tips & Warnings
- Read the operator manuals for any tools you use while removing brick.
- Spread plywood sheets or heavy cardboard in the area around your fireplace before you begin working to guard against damage to the floor.
- When operating a demolition hammer always wear gloves, a dust mask, ear plugs and eye protection to prevent injuries from sharp masonry chips, extreme noise and masonry dust.

- Frankenmuth Insurance has been operating for over 150 years
- They have a strong financial rating
- They rebounded from a financial hit due to weather-related claims
This car insurance review uncovers the history of this German-based company formed in 1868.
The original name was Frankenmuth Garage Company and auto policies were available for $7.50 premiums with a $1.00 policy fee.
In 1921, stockholders established a charter and the new name became, Frankenmuth Mutual Auto Insurance Company.
To get comparison car insurance quotes for this company, enter your ZIP code above!
More About Frankenmuth Mutual
The company expanded its service to the US in Michigan and added 200 subscribers in the 1920s. Although they have come a long way from 1868, premiums are still affordable.
They are now members of an insurance pool of four other companies, gradually American Insurance Company, Fortuity Insurance Company, Asure Worldwide Insurance Company and Patriot Insurance Company.
Their financial rating issued by A.M. Best Company, a staple in the worldwide consumer business rating community since 1899, is A (excellent).
Frankenmuth now serves 14 states in the US. The company pool acquired Patriot Insurance, which is located in Maine, around 2008. Storms in the midwest affected finances along with other financial risks.
In 2009, these negatives were offset by an upswing in operation performance and capitalization.

et ready to take a ride on a train-wreck! Enter the world of Josh Lowell -- demented loser, town pillar, self-loathing transvestite in denial. The centerpiece, the proverbial objet d'art, he is the center of his universe, surrounded by minions of devoted followers, over whom he exerts an almost cult-like control. The first member of these so-called "minions" is Malaise, goth-warrior-princess and trailer-trash vampire. Malaise blazes a trail strewn with flotsam and jetsam on whatever path she chooses to tread. In this case, the path is where Josh happens to be walking. Malaise is also a really big slut. The second of these minions, and Josh's sergeant-at-arms, is Salem. A brute force of wasted air,Salem commands the respect of those around him, like crackheads, the homeless and runaway kids. Accompanied by these two devoted followers, Josh busies himself preparing for his comeback. Where has he been to necessitate this comeback? Well, that's what this documentary is about. Josh is, in fact, (according to him), none other than Tori Amos, in spite of the Adam's apple and the propensity to use urinals. Unfortunately, the population of Seattle doesn't quite accept him as the avant-garde rockstar, Ms. Amos. Therein lies the basis for the wonderful series of hijinks and conflicts that erupt as Josh spends his days walking the streets of Seattle spouting obscenities to all passers-by, threatening shopkeepers, performing for his fans and drawing all sunshine and cosmic energy from the ether above. He does this by simply walking around in a tattered housecoat and red wig, but that's the fun part.Overview from IMDb.com

Berkeley Heights is unlikely to join a shared emergency dispatch service with New Providence, Millburn and Summit, Mayor Joseph Bruno said at a May 22 council meeting.
Bruno said, "we know what we want to do," after Councilman Bob Woodruff asked the council to tell residents about an apparently unspoken decision on the issue they had reached.
"We're not saying out loud but we know what we want to do. Quite frankly, the shared services does not give us any reduction in fees. We need to discuss why we go there," Bruno said.
Township Administrator Amey Upchurch said on Thursday that Berkeley Heights had been considering the dispatch merger well before it was officially presented to them on April 24 by Summit and New Providence officials.
Upchurch said the township "looked internally at our cost structure and externally" at the proposal's structure in deciding how to address the opportunity. The township is also forced into an inflexible position with regards to budgeting its own emergency services since the shared services program will not take effect for at least a year, Upchurch said.
New Providence had been discussing the shared dispatch program for several weeks, but Borough Administrator Doug Marvin said at the April presentation to Berkeley Heights that "the idea started in 2006" and that subsequent "studies found it would make sense to combine resources."
The plan calls to have one building in the region that pools resources and employees to more efficiently dispatch emergency services and personnel as events warrant, Summit Administrator Chris Connor said.
Marvin said that sharing the dispatch center would allow for law enforcement to better pursue and more quickly locate suspects traveling between the municipalities.
Berkeley Heights will officially announce its intentions at a council meeting in June, Upchurch said.

VIERA — The fate of a mentally disabled man who has been trying to leave a Seffner group home under Senate scrutiny for a controversial sex policy has been handed over to the state.
The Agency for Persons with Disabilities received exclusive authority to move Kevin Rouse to another state-licensed group home under a court settlement Friday that also gives Rouse's guardians recourse to object.
The agreement came after a stalemate between Rouse's guardians and the state, who have been at odds on where Rouse should go since he asked to leave the Human Development Center, where he said he was sexually assaulted nearly three years ago.
His guardians worry the court order permits the state to retaliate against them for complaints they made about controversial sex practices at the group home by sending Rouse far from where his mother lives.
"I just don't want them to move him someplace without us knowing," said Rose Rouse, Kevin's mother.
Kevin Rouse, 42, was accused of lewd and lascivious molestation of an 8-year-old boy in March 2003 but a judge found him incompetent and sent him to the Human Development Center, which houses mentally disabled men, including those accused of sex crimes.
The center had a long-standing permissive policy that allowed residents to have sex with each other during a practice the men called "quiet time." The staff maintained the sex was consensual, supervised and the right of the residents. But Rouse's mother objected and said the sexually charged environment led to her son being assaulted in a bathroom in 2008.
She took her concerns to state Sen. Ronda Storms, R-Valrico, and over the next two years, investigations and Senate hearings resulted in a top state official's resignation, a Senate bill and several Times' stories that detailed sexual abuse allegations and a rape the center's own records acknowledged in 2005. Experts and former staffers questioned the center's ability to protect men who lack the ability to consent from higher-functioning sex offenders.
The state stopped "quiet time" in 2008, but the group home faced no sanctions. Rouse, meanwhile, has been unable to move because the state said few qualified homes will take him except for "lockdown" facilities or homes farther from his guardians, who have rejected those options.
The state is considering moving Rouse in the next two weeks to a group home either in Mount Dora, Orlando, Fort Lauderdale or Miami, his guardians learned from Rouse's public defender. They especially object to the latter two choices and prefer a home within an hour's drive of St. Petersburg or Palm Bay, where Rose Rouse lives.
Wherever the state moves Rouse, Brevard Circuit Judge Robert T. Burger must sign off on placement. The judge's order prohibited more restrictive homes. He said he will hear any objection, but gave the state permission to move Rouse first and then seek his approval.
"They may need to move him because of the inappropriateness of the place he's in now," Burger told Rouse's guardians.
State prosecutors also dismissed the 8-year-old criminal charge against Rouse on Friday but he remains under a civil court order that keeps him involuntarily committed to the state.
Public Defender Herbert Kellener said the compromise was the best he could legally negotiate, saying the judge remains Rouse's guardians safety net.
"Do I agree with what went on?" he asked about the Human Development Center. "No. Nobody could. But we have to follow the rules. We have to abide by the (law)."
Said Mike Palecki, an attorney with the Agency for Persons with Disabilities: "The judge did the right thing."
Much of the dispute between Rouse's guardians and the state could be alleviated if the state licensed more facilities that accept hard-to-place men such as Rouse, said Sylvia Smith, legislative and public affairs director for Disability Rights Florida. A proposal that could have forced the state to license more homes failed during the legislative session.
"They should be doing what the bill called for anyway," she said.

Jay Z Fan Raps for a Record Deal at Chicago Concert
Last week at the Greensboro, N.C. stop of the Magna Carter Holy Grail tour, Jay Z invited a young 12-year-old fan on stage to perform 'Clique.' The kid did his thing, so it's understandable when Hov did a similar gesture at his latest tour stop in Chicago. This time the fan was much older and had a plan.
Enter MC Monique, a 19-year-old rhymer who has dreams of signing a record deal. She previously rapped for Jay Z during his 'Blueprint 3′ tour and had a chance to do so again in Chicago.
She didn't rap along to a song like the previous 12 year old kid. Instead, MC Monique spit an a capella freestyle after asking fans to be quiet because she was "tryna get signed tonight and s—." To her credit, the freestyle was actually pretty decent.
Jay Z complimented her on having the courage to do so saying, "I would've done the same s—." He gave her a hug before sending her off the stage, without a record deal. Still it was a good moment to see.

Look at those gorgeous grins!
Expectant mom Jennifer Garner shared a laugh with her youngest daughter Seraphina, 2, at the Farmer's Market in Brentwood, California yesterday (October 15). The pretty pair were joined by dad Ben Affleck and big sister Violet, 5, who looked adorable in her sweet floral dress.
Wonder what the girls think of dad's scruffy new look? The beard and shaggy 'do are reportedly for Ben's latest movie Argo – the Oscar-winner both stars in and directs the new flick.

Holiday shoppers in the U.S. spent 15 percent more on online purchases compared to the same time period last year, according to ComScore, a company that tracks Web use: And more Americans are using their personal computers as well as mobile devices to cross items off their holiday shopping lists.
From Nov. 1 through Dec. 16, shoppers doled out $30.9 billion on online purchases, up from $26.9 billion during that same time period in 2010.
Last week, total online sales reached beyond $1 billion on four separate days. But Cyber Monday was still the largest online shopping day of the season. On that day, the Monday after Thanksgiving, online sales rose 22 percent from last year to hit $1.25 billion.
Also of note this year is that Black Friday (the day after Thanksgiving), which is traditionally when shoppers hit retailers' brick-and-mortar outlets, saw the greatest percent change in the amount spent by shoppers online when compared to last year: Shoppers spent a total of $816 million buying items online. Black Friday was one of six specific online shopping days that ComScore compared to last year (as opposed to longer time periods), other days included Thanksgiving, Cyber Monday, and Free Shipping Day.
As the holiday shopping season winds down, you can find lots of tips and advice at our holiday-shopping hub.

The annual Elk River Wrestling Golf Extravaganza that drew about 100 players last Friday had as special guests the 1981 state runner-up team.
The event generated about $9,000 for the Elk junior high wrestling program, stated chairman Rick Roche.
Eleven members of the 1981 team were on hand, plus coach Mike Dahlheimer.
"We wanted to do something different to get more people to play, so we decided to invite the 1981 team that was the first from Elk River to go to state," said Paul Nelson, current head coach who was an Elk JV freshman that year. "It was great to so so many of them come."
Jim Hirt traveled the farthest; he lives in Tennessee. Others who made were Jim Jorgenson (98-pound state champ that year, and 7-0 at state), Jim Clarke (still active at 48 in mixed martial arts competition), Matt Leshovsky (former Rogers coach), Jeff Vasseuer (third in state at heavyweight that year, still holds Elk pins record), Jim Staffenhagen, Leon Ebner, Loren Ebner, Dave Barsody, Tim Stolke, and Mike Hanlon.
Two teams tied for first place, each shooting 14-under-par. The team of Jim Fritz, Brad Boston, Paul Dilley, and Jon Grunewald placed first after a playoff. The runner-up team was Tyler Hemmesch, Nick Donaldson, Brad Wenland, and Jake Berger.

Those Showpiece Cakes That Take Months To Make
Decorating By dianadors Updated 13 Jan 2014 , 11:00pm by maybenot
are they edible after all those months?
2 replies
maybe done in fruitcake but generally no and the caker would not want it eaten--they usually are made of foam
No, the competition pieces--unless specially carved--are made of styrofoam dummies.
When I did a carved cake for competition, I used a commercial cake mix but didn't use dairy in it. It held up for a long time, but eventually succumbed to mold.

The details were antiseptic yet chilling. Perhaps the most appalling nicety was bandaging the faces of the dead, so that researchers would not have to look into their eyes after the bodies were put through the automobile test crashes. How much indignity should human remains be allowed to suffer -- even for the cause of science? That ancient debate was renewed last week by the disclosure that Germany's University of Heidelberg had, for the past two decades, wired electronic sensors to more than 200 human corpses (including the bodies of eight children), strapped them into cars and hurled them at speeds...

Well, former Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor is going to get his wish as he has been approved by the NFL Commissioner for entry to the NFL Supplemental Draft that is being held Monday. Only one problem however, whatever team he's going to end up with is going to be without him for the first five games as the NFL has suspended him for those weeks in a move that stinks of collusion between the NCAA and the NFL.
Oh, the NFL song and dance is spinning the suspension to be more because Pryor allegedly tried to circumvent league rules concerning the draft by declaring for the NFL the way he did but anyone with half a brain can see that NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell was just upholding the five game suspension doled out at the end of the 2010 college season to the talented Ohio State quarterback by the NCAA. Even the statement issued by the league pretty much says the same thing as it takes into account everything that happened to the college star leading up to this point.
"… Pryor made decisions that undermine the integrity of the eligibility rules for the NFL draft," the league said. "Those actions included failing to cooperate with the NCAA and hiring an agent in violation of NCAA rules, which resulted in Ohio State declaring him ineligible to continue playing college football.
"Pryor then applied to enter the NFL after the regular draft. Pryor had accepted at the end of the 2010 college football season a suspension for the first five games of the 2011 season for violating NCAA rules. Pryor will be ineligible to practice prior to or play in the first five games of the NFL regular season after he signs."
This ruling is as shocking as it is groundbreaking because Goodell basically just gave himself jurisdiction over college improprieties with it. Formerly, there was an invisible line between the NCAA and the NFL due mainly to college athletes being considered amateurs and the NFL being professional sports, but this ruling sets a dangerous precedence that could have ramifications for years to come.
In the short term, the ruling made Thursday is already causing people to wonder if the Commissioner is going to step in with punishments of his own for the players involved in the Miami scandal still unfolding currently in the NCAA.
"I don't understand," said Buffalo Bills safety George Wilson, an NFLPA representative. "My question is, with this Miami probe, are those players who took those gifts, are those guys — guys that violated NCAA regulations — are they subject to his discipline as well? Is it retroactive? This opens up a big can of worms.
"You can't pick and choose when you want to apply, when you don't want to apply, who you stick it to, who you don't stick it to," Wilson said. "It needs to be clearly defined. I don't agree with it. But we have to see how he chooses to proceed as well as the union. It's just setting a whole totally different precedent. "
With all the recent issues between the NFL and the Players Union concerning the new Collective Bargaining Agreement, the league can ill afford another confrontation with the players and their representatives. The smart thing to do would be to clarify this issue and stress that it is an isolated incident and not an upcoming league mandate.
That's the smart thing. Doesn't mean the league will do it though.
But until they do, however, expect a lot of ripples to be produced by this and a lot of sleepless nights for players who attended Miami in the past decade.

A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to see Michelangelo's famous statue of David in the Accademia Museum here in Florence. I had heard, long before coming to Italy, what a masterpiece it was and what an incredible artist Michelangelo was, so I had pretty high expectations going in–although I must admit, very little knowledge in the area of art. I walked into the museum, wound my way through a couple of little rooms and found myself in a great hall staring at a massive white marble carving of a nude man–but my fascination was not on the details you might be thinking of!
I was immediately struck by a seemingly contradictory pair of features that had me baffled. How could an artist be so intricate, detailed, and talented to carve amazingly lifelike veins into the skin and be off on what would seem to be the most basic of skills–proportion. Indeed, David's head and hands were sized for Goliath's body! I just could not comprehend why Michelangelo was deemed such a gifted artist if he couldn't even scale the human body correctly. I left disillusioned and critical of this so-called masterpiece.
A few days later, I was talking with one of my friends who is here studying art. She asked me what I thought of the David statue and I told her my rather negative opinion. Having never studied or even read about the field of art in general, I should have realized that my judgments were based on ignorance and therefore probably incorrect, but no, I spouted them off like a fool, pretending I knew what I was talking about. My friend, who was very gracious, laughed and said "you would be amazed at how many people get that wrong." When I asked her to explain, she told me that Michelangelo was commissioned to do the statue of David for the top of the Duomo. If the statue was sitting up high as it was intended to be, everything would look the proper size and be to scale. The perspective for which it was designed to be seen is drastically different than how it is actually being viewed and thus it does not look right. My respect for Michelangelo and his craft was instantly renewed.
Perspective reared its confounding head again later that week as I looked at the drawings different students made of me when I posed for two of the Art academies in Florence. Although every single person was looking at me on the same day, at the same time, in the same clothes, with the same expression, in the same lighting–none of the pictures were alike. Every person had their own way of seeing me and I realized that just because we all look at something doesn't mean we have the same vision of it.
Through these two events, God has shown me how powerful perspective is. The way we view something determines our attitude towards it. I was also startled to find (ok, more like forced to admit) that sometimes I look at things with the wrong perspective. How many times do I look at an opportunity and see an obstacle? How many times have I viewed a blessing as a burden? How often do I see someone God loves and behold them with contempt? Much like the statue of David was created to viewed from on high, we were created to look up to God for our vision instead of down to our own judgments. My prayer in all of this is that God will give me His perspective to see not only my own life, but also the world around me–for with His vision will come His heart, and with His heart I can become all that He desires me to be.
Today I get to share a poem I started to write on the back of an offering envelope during a church service over a year ago. I have carried it around in my Bible, unfinished, hoping that one day God would give me the rest of the words to complete it. Those words finally came today, I pray you will find them encouraging:

Chevrolet Repair Questions? Ask a Chevy Mechanic for Answers ASAP
The center top brake light work?
Thanks. Most likley you have a bad turn signal switch.
However, before replacoing anything else...
1. As the brake pedal is applied, check the stop lamp relay for a click. The relay is in the under-hood fuse block. If no click, try a known good relay relay.2. Check the maxi fuse, #2 in the under-hood fuse block. 3. If the fuse is OK and the relay clicks, check for 12v in and out of connector 100, pin B1, Light Blue or White wire. 4. Should have voltage on this wire with the brake applied, stop lamp relay activated. 5. If so, check for power into the turn signal switch on pin A1 (the White or Light Blue wire) with the brakes applied and out on the Green wire (pin E6) and Yellow wire (pin E7).6. If good in but not out, replace the turn signal switch. If good power in and out, check the rear brake light socket connectors/grounds
The turn signal switch is the switch you use to operate the turn signals. It is located on the steering column.

JERUSALEM — The serene atmosphere of friendship and reconciliation that has reigned in the 24 hours since President Barack Obama landed here for his first presidential trip was punctured this morning by the launch from Gaza of two missiles aimed at Israeli civilan targets.
One crashed into the backyard of a family home in Sderot, the southern city Obama mentioned in remarks yesterday, when he said he had seen the damage wrought by missiles on a previous visit to the region.
In describing his hopes for an Israeli-Palestinian peace, the presdent said he hoped "for Palestinians to feel a sense that they too are masters of their own fate; for Israel to feel that the possibilities of rockets raining down on their families has diminished."
No one was hurt by the Thursday rockets, two of which landed, with almost poetic precision, back in Gaza, whereas two were found in Israel. This is the third launch of rockets from Gaza in the last month, after a period of quiet following Israel's Gaza incursion in November.
Sderot is frequently targeted by rocket attacks from the Gaza Strip, which is ruled by the Palestinian group Hamas.
Rocket alert sirens went off in Sderot before the rockets hit.
The BBC wrote that Obama would spend only a few hours in Ramallah with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas on Thursday, talking mainly about the Israel-Palestinian conflict.
Obama's declaration that the United States was Israel's strongest ally was likely to add tension at the meeting, the BBC said.
In talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday after his arrival on Air Force One, Obama gave his personal commitment that the United States would stand by Israel were it to act to protect its people.
Within minutes of arriving at Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion airport on Wednesday, Obama said of the US-Israel relationship that "our alliance is eternal," later adding that:
"The United States is proud to stand with you as your strongest ally and your greatest friend."
On the other hand, the BBC pointed out, Obama said in a 2009 speech in Cairo that the situation for Palestinians was "intolerable."

Good luck to you. I wish you all the best.
Thank you so much. I should have also said that the landlord and former tenant are the only ones with access to the room. I requested the lock from the landlord because she was accusing me of damaging her things and My former roommate agreed to have the lock placed on the door. So the roommate could have access if she so desired.

Developing a Pause
You've just learned that your boyfriend cheated on you. Or your boss criticized you in front of a large group of people. Maybe a friend has talked about you in not-so-flattering ways with other people. Full of anger, you write a scathing email and push send. Or you tell the other person off. A few minutes later, you realize you are in agony, wishing you could unsend the email or unsay your angry words.
In such situations, you may wish emotions didn't exist. But emotions give us important information. Being completely logical leaves out the information we get from emotions. For example, depending on the context, anger can communicate that we need to protect ourselves, shame may help us adhere to values, and fear helps us escape from situations that could be harmful. Sometimes, though, we experience emotions for reasons that have nothing to do with surviving the situation we're in, such as being afraid when there is no physical threat. For example, maybe we are afraid of uncomfortable situations, afraid of our emotions and afraid of speaking up for ourselves.
In times of immediate danger we need to act quickly without thinking. When emotions are not an accurate reflection of the situation we're in, we still often act in an urgent way even though that's not the best option.
Emotions can be so strong that we act on pure emotion and don't pay attention to consequences, logic or reason. We get tunnel vision and don't consider other alternatives other than the perspective that has made us so angry or upset or afraid. When the emotion goes down, we are then able to think more clearly because the logical part of our brain is engaged again.
Most of the time acting immediately is not necessary and not advisable. When we can pause between the feeling we have and the action we want to take, we can usually make a better decision based on both logic and emotion. Marsha Linehan, the treatment developer of Dialectical Behavior Therapy, calls that wise mind.
Developing a Pause
Mindfulness is one way to develop the pause between thoughts or feelings and your actions. When you are mindful of having a thought, you can step back from the thought and not act on it. When you are mindful of an emotion, you step back from the emotion, observe it, and decide if you need or want to act on the emotion and if so in what way you want to act. You remain in control of your actions rather than being at the mercy of your emotions or thoughts.
You may decide to not act. Sometimes the best course is to just let the thought pass or just sit with the emotion until it dissipates.
Mindfulness helps you develop the pause that allows you time to decide if and how you want to act. The more you practice mindfulness, the more likely you can have the pause, even when your emotions are strong.
Make a Commitment to Not Act. In personal situations it's not often that you have to make decisions immediately. Whenever possible, wait until your emotions have passed before making decisions or taking action. Commit to yourself that no matter how strong the urge or how sure you are about your action, you will not act until you are calm.
Don't Assume. Sometimes we assume we know the motives of other people when we really don't. Sometimes we judge their personality characteristics by their actions when their actions may be specific to the situation. For example, someone may rush past you in the grocery store, almost running into you. You may think of that person as rude. Maybe they are rushing because they need baby aspirin for a sick child and the sitter has to leave in just a few minutes.
Sometimes we assume others' actions are specific to us when they are not. We assume that they ignored us because they are mad at us. In truth, maybe they are preoccupied with troubles of their own. Maybe we think if we were "good enough" our spouses would treat us with more kindness. Maybe the facts are that the person believes he is being kind–his definition of kindness is different than yours.
When you are emotionally upset, take time to check for assumptions. Are you sure of your facts? Taking time to check the facts doesn't mean you won't take needed action, it just means you take some time to be sure you have correct information. Saying "There couldn't be any other explanation," isn't knowing the facts. In many surprising ways,we can be so sure all the evidence points to only one explanation and then learn that the truth was something entirely different that we didn't consider.
Look for the Dialectic. Dialectic thinking says that none of us have the whole truth. You may have factual information but not see the whole picture. We see other people and their actions through our own fears, biases, history and culture. When you have a certain perspective, consider what other views might be possible. Doing so can help you move away from extreme emotions and extreme thoughts, which tend to make us miserable. Taking time to see what information you might be missing will help you develop a pause.
If You Feel Urgency When There's No Emergency–Wait. When an immediate response is not necessary in an emotionally-charged situation, take the time to let your emotions fade. If you are feeling a sense of urgency, double-check whether the situation is truly urgent. That urgency you are experiencing is likely to be emotional urges to act on your anger, fear, hurt or other feeling and have nothing to do with the effective response that is needed.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
I am already neutered, in need of an experienced adopter, up to date with shots, and not good with kids.
Ty and Tau, a Howell Siamese cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Siamese for sale in Howell, or seeking a Siamese cat from a breeder in Howell.

Ha! NEVER!
Today is the day that Capcom's
Marvel vs. Capcom 3
releases to stores and you can see for yourself just how good the game is... don't just take
my word
for it. Capcom has released a launch trailer for the game (shown below, actually the fourth intro movie for the game) and detailed the first downloadable content that will be hitting both the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in just a few weeks.
The first DLC for the game will come in the form of the first pack of alternate costumes for the game. The costume pack will cost 400 Microsoft points / $4.99 and contain new threads for Dante, Captain America, Chris Redfield, Iron Man, and Ryu. The previously announced Shadow Mode DLC pack will also be released on that day. Those waiting for the addition of Jill Valentine and Shuma Gorath will have to wait a little bit longer as the duo is currently planned for release on March 15 (according to the voucher in the special edition of the game).
You can see all of the new costumes in the assortment of pictures below courtesy of Capcom. Ryu will be receiving his original, Street Fighter (1) look. Dante will be receiving a haircut and a look reminiscent of his father, Sparda. Chris is taking things back to his roots as well with an original, RE1 STARS uniform. Captain America will be dawning his original suit, including the classic version of his shield. Finally, Iron Man will sport his red, white, and blue suit that was worn as a tribute to Captain America following his death in the Marvel universe. Color me sold...

AL Waiver Wire: Week 10
Greg Holland | Kansas City Royals | RP | ESPN: 1.6 percent ownership, Yahoo: 10 percent ownership
Oliver ROS: 3.51 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, 9.9 K/9
Holland had a rough start to the season, finishing April on the DL with a ribcage injury and a 11.37 ERA. Since returning though, he's been the lights-out reliever we met last year, allowing one run in 16 innings with 19 strikeouts. His 3.68 ERA on the year still hasn't fully recovered from the beating it took in April, but Holland is clearly an elite reliever right now.
Jonathan Broxton is the man getting saves in Kansas City, but his renaissance in the "Paris of the plains" is only helping to punch his ticket to a contender in July. Holland is the clear setup man here, and has a very good chance to be the closer around a month from now. Wild speculation encouraged.
Recommendation: Should be added in any competitive saves league (assuming non-competitive saves leagues exist).
Adam Lind | Toronto Blue Jays | 1B | ESPN: 24.8 percent ownership, Yahoo:19 percent ownership
YTD: .186/,273/,314 (Triple-A: .419/.477/.699)
Oliver ROS: .260/.314/.458
If sending Lind to Triple-A was the baseball equivalent of a "time-out," I think the 28-year-old has learned his lesson. And while he's crushing the PCL like it's his playpen, replacement David Cooper's production has come a screeching halt. Lind should be back up with the big boys soon, and while he may never hit lefties, his power potential makes him a worthy addition in most leagues.
Recommendation: Should be re-added in 14+ team mixed leagues where he was dropped.
A.J. Griffin | Oakland A's | SP | Not in player pool
YTD: (43 Double-A innings) 2.49 ERA, 0.88 WHIP, 1.45 BB/9, 9.41 K/9
(36 Triple-A innings) 3.22 ERA, 0.96, 1.49 BB/9, 7.93 K/9
Oliver ROS: 4.54 ERA, 1.32 WHIP, 6.5 K/9
The A's rotation will soon be in a state of upheaval with Brandon McCarthy maybe hitting the DL, Bartolo Colon sure to be traded, and Travis Blackley's hold on the fifth spot tenuous at best. Even with Brett Anderson and Dallas Braden slated to return sometime in the second half, this presents the opportunity for a couple more young arms to jump up to the bigs.
Graham Godfrey already got his chance at the start of the season, but after four starts was 0-4 with a 6.16 ERA and returned to the minors. In Triple-A he's pitched well and could be first in line to move back up. After Godfrey, people will probably think Brad Peacock—one of the near major league-ready arms the A's received for Gio Gonzalez—but he hasn't been particularly sharp thus far.
On the other hand, Griffin has been stellar in both Double and Triple-A this year. He's no top prospect, ranked 19th in the A's system by Sickels (Peacock is fourth), and has been spoken of very little on the interwebs. His numbers, however, speak for themselves.
Griffin has struck nearly a batter an inning this year and has done a tremendous job limiting walks, issuing a mere 13 in 80 innings. He's not a highly touted arm so his stuff might not fool major league hitters, but he's pitching well enough to deserve a shot. The A's have a habit of producing quality arms, so add Griffin to your watch list.
Recommendation: Should only be considered in the deepest AL-only leagues. Otherwise just add him to your mental watch list.
Ryan Kalish | Boston Red Sox | OF | ESPN: 0.1 percent ownership, 0 percent ownership
YTD: (34 Triple-A plate appearances) .429/.529/.821
Oliver ROS: .267/.331/.430
Kalish's season recently began due to offseason shoulder surgery, and, boy, is he making up for lost time. Currently in Triple-A, he's posted the monster slash line you see above with three homers in seven games. Boston will likely give him at least a few more weeks to prove himself in the minors, but if he's still hitting then, a call-up is certainly possible. Even though regular playing time probably won't exist for Kalish given the mess that is the Red Sox outfield, by September I'd hope Ryan Sweeney and Daniel Nava don't prevent the Sox from getting a good look at one of their top prospects.
With decent pop and speed, and the ability to put up a respectable .270-.280s average, Kalish could be a valuable player to own come September.
Recommendation: Can be stashed in deep AL_only leagues. Everyone else, just watch for now.
Franklin Gutierrez | Seattle Mariners | OF | ESPN: 0 percent ownership, Yahoo: 1 percent ownership
YTD: four PAs, one hit, one walk, one HBP
Oliver ROS: .245/.296/.349
You may remember in 2008 and 2009 Gutierrez was a solid fantasy player capable of 15 homers and 20 steals. Then, injuries ruined his 2011 season. Since then he's been fighting to regain his health, and now, midway into the 2012 season, he finally appears healthy. In his first game last night, Gutierrez batted eighth and went 1-for-2 with an RBI single and a walk.
How he'll produce is anyone's guess—a .270 average with seven homers and 10 steals is about as optimistic as I'll get with FraGu. At least he's slated for regular at-bats as the Mariners center fielder, and in some leagues that makes him worthy of an add by itself.
Recommendation: Can be considered as an add in 16+ team mixed and AL-only leagues.

Have HVAC Questions? Ask an HVAC Expert for Answers
did you replace the transformer?
Was transformer a multifit or OEM replacement?
All unused leads capped separately?
What 2 colors did you hook up on primary side?
What model transformer ?
And are you measuring for 24v wire to wire or wire to ground?
orange and white
Jard tf402424-b51c84k
wire to ground
i was having computer issues but i think its good now Are you still here
Last question....when measuring primary (220)...are you reading each wire to ground or wire to wire?
Thank you....
you said you tested transformer in wall outlet...but that would be 115v. We need 220 and I hope you used the 2 wires on primary for 230v.
Now you need to measure supply wire to wire. With 220 you must measure wire to wire because it is possible to have only one leg and be reading that same leg on both sides.
Verify wire to wire for 220v
Verify primary wires on transformer are for 230v
Then check 24 v side wire to wire and not ground
let me know results

Turrubiates gets 20 years, higher sentence, for killing toddler
OLIVIA -- Sergio Turrubiates Jr., 21, of Olivia, was sentenced this morning to 20 years in prison on a second-degree murder charge for the December 2010 death of 19-month-old Tiana Moore.
Turrubiates's sentence was a 24-month upward departure due to the aggravated factors, including the vulnerability of the child and particular cruelty of the crime, found by District Judge Dwayne Knutsen.
Before he was sentenced, Turrubiates said he was sorry for the child's death and that he thinks about the little girl every day.
The child's mother, Kristina Kirscher, took the stand to give a statement during the sentencing hearing. "I know there is nothing I can do to take this pain away," she said.
Tiana Moore died on Dec. 24 at the Children's Hospital in St. Paul. Doctors testified that her chances of survival would have been improved if she would have been provided care sooner. Turrubiates admitted that he did not immediately seek help for the child when she suffered severe injuries to her head and that he attempted to cover up what happened to the child.

North Carolina didn't exactly get thrown into the frying pan in Saturday's season opener as they cruised to a 62-0 victory past overmatched Elon, but they're certainly getting thrown into the fire this Saturday, as they take to the road for its Atlantic Coast Conference regular season opener at Wake Forest.
Wake Forest struggled in its opener, barely holding on to beat Liberty 20-17, but the Demon Deacons are always a tough out at BB&T Field, and they've got a veteran defense that could make life quite difficult for Carolina's new offense unless they're ready to play.
"Going on the road in the league is always something that's difficult. So for us it's trying to keep, whether it's a home game or an away game, everything's the same. Our preparation throughout the week, our preparation on Friday, is exactly the same whether it's home or away," said UNC head coach Larry Fedora Monday. "So hopefully that helps as we get into a routine."
"We can't take any game lightly. We've got to prepare like it's the Super Bowl every week," added quarterback Bryn Renner.
While both UNC and Wake faced opponents that most considered inferior to them in their respective openers, the days of loading up several early games against lesser opponents before entering conference play are gone.
Ask Georgia Tech and Virginia Tech, who endured a slugfest in Blacksburg Monday night in a game that very well could have shaped the entire ACC Coastal Division race in early September.
"It's kind of weird. You don't get those tune-up games anymore. You've kind of got to just jump right into it, and that's what Coach Fedora has been preaching. We've got to be on our toes because these games matter. The conference games are huge. Not saying the other games aren't, but you put more emphasis on the conference games," said Renner.
"Definitely we've got to prepare. It's tough having it (the ACC opener) early in the season, because we only have one game under our belt, and for the starting offense, we have only a half under our belt. So the practices leading up to the game (will determine) how we play."
"Hopefully 'getting up for it' is not a problem. It's the next game. It's the next opportunity. That's the culture we're trying to establish. It doesn't matter who you play, when you play them, where you play them, what time you play them. It's the next opportunity. And so you get yourself prepared to play throughout this week," added Coach Fedora.
UNC's next opportunity comes against a Wake Forest squad that got another taste of the postseason last fall, and was actually within a field goal down in Death Valley of going to overtime against Clemson and potentially representing the ACC Atlantic in last December's conference championship game.
Ask anybody that goes to Winston-Salem how tough it is to beat the Demon Deacons at home when they're playing well. Ask Florida State's Jimbo Fisher. Ask N.C. State's Tom O'Brien. Ask former UNC head coach Butch Davis, whose first Tar Heel team back in 2007 was humbled 37-10 by the Old Gold and Black.
Ask North Carolina's own Vic Koenning, who was part of a Clemson staff that lost to Wake Forest in 2008 at BB&T Field that wound up being Tommy Bowden's final game with the Tigers.
And even though the Deacs didn't play particularly well against Liberty, the Tar Heels should expect a completely different team this week.
"First of all, Jim (Grobe) does a great job with his team, and they're always well prepared. I've known that for a long time, and have always heard great things about Jim. I've followed him," said Fedora. "His kids are going to play hard. They're going to be sound. They're going to move quite a bit up front defensively."
Fedora and the Tar Heel players showed respect to the Demon Deacon players, who they've been watching on film in recent days and hours.
"We got great film from when they played Liberty, so we're watching that and trying to get the best read possible. They're very fast and very physical," said Renner. "Nikita Whitlock, the nose guard, I got a chance to meet him at the ACC Media Day. The kid plays really, really hard."
"I played against Mike Olson, one of their linebackers, in high school, and Zach Thompson, their defensive linemen. They both play hard."
"They've got a big offensive line. And they've got a quarterback (Tanner Price) with experience," added senior defensive tackle Sylvester Williams.
"They've got a receiver (Michael Campanaro) I understand that is a really good player in the league, and he made a lot of players for him last year. So they find a lot of ways to get him the ball," added Coach Fedora.
"What I've looked at in the kicking game, (they're) sound. The kids play hard. They're aggressive. They get after it."
"They've got a new kicker this year, who put I think four out of five in the end zone the other day (for touchbacks), so he's obviously got a strong leg. So it will obviously be a tough time."
Just as UNC's offense held a lot of stuff back in its season opener to unleash on Wake Forest, the Tar Heels can expect to see a bunch of different things in the Demon Deacons on Saturday that wasn't on the Liberty film.
That's just a part of the game---not only the disguising and saving of plays and formations, but also the all-important advancement of a football team between the first and second games of the season.
"They're definitely going to have different schemes for us. I'm sure of that," Renner said.
Wake Forest's players don't have to be reminded of last year's 49-24 Tar Heel romp in Kenan Stadium, and the revenge factor is something that UNC will have to potentially overcome on Saturday.
"They're going to come and give us our best shot. They did last year. It was a close game there for a little bit, and we kind of got the best of them," said Renner. "Anytime you beat a team, they're going to want revenge---especially at home. We know we're going to have to bring our best game, because they're going to bring theirs."
"I want to go ahead and dominate these guys up front," added Williams. "At the end of the day, Wake Forest, they've got a great team, but North Carolina, we've also got a great team. We're going to bring our best and they're going to bring their best."
Fortunately for UNC, bringing their best on Saturday will include sophomore tailback Giovani Bernard, who was held out in the second half as a precaution this past weekend but will be good to go for the Wake game.
"I feel good now. I'm ready to go. I feel pretty good. I'm ready to go. Just going out there, being able to play, playing healthy and playing happy is my biggest thing," Bernard.
Needless to say, Saturday is huge for UNC football on multiple levels.
The all-important opportunity to go 1-0 in ACC play comes along only once a year, and getting that valuable conference momentum heading into a three-game series of non-conference September tilts could send a strong message around the ACC that despite its postseason probation, the 2012 Tar Heels are here to play.
"I'm pumped, because the ACC is where you get your bread and butter at, so I'm excited to go out here and put the new schemes to work against Wake Forest, and let the ACC know that Carolina football is here," said Williams.


text: The deaths of two women discovered just a week apart on Mount Tamalpais in April were unrelated and accidental, Marin County investigators and coroners announced on Tuesday. Magdalena Glinkowski, a 33-year-old Menlo Park woman who worked as a software developer, was found on April 12, two weeks after she was declared missing. Coroners said she died from environmental exposure and hypothermia over a period of one or more days, and displayed no signs of traumatic injury. "No sprains, no broken bones, nothing to indicate struggle," said Lt. Keith Boyd of the Marin County Sheriff's Office. She was unfamiliar with the area and not prepared for a prolonged or individual hike, investigators wrote. After an extensive search that employed search dogs and volunteers, her body was found about a mile from her car, parked at the Bootjack Trailhead, at the bottom of a creek bed below a steep slope. A week after her discovery, on April 17, the body of Mill Valley resident Marie Sanner, 50, was found just hours after she was reported missing following a nighttime hike with her dog, a German shepherd named Fiona, and a friend. In their forensic exam of Ms. Sanner, coroners found a level of blood alcohol concentration just beyond the legal limit. She died of a blunt injury to the head, likely after falling down a ravine into Fern Creek, below the Matt Davis Trail. Investigators also noted her lack of familiarity with the trail and the absence of both ambient light and lighting devices as factors in her death. According to her obituary in the San Francisco Chronicle, Ms. Sanner had lived in Mill Valley since 1966 and had relatives living in Woodacre; she worked as an elementary school teacher in Oakland and was an artist, a flamenco dancer, a tennis player, a painter and an avid hiker.

Housing markets in South Florida and across the state enjoyed a robust second quarter.
Palm Beach County's median price for existing single-family homes was $245,000 in the April-through-June period, 14 percent higher than a year earlier, according to data released last week by the Realtors Association of the Palm Beaches. There were 4,369 home sales, up 13 percent.
In Broward County, the median price rose 21 percent to $255,000, while the 4,132 sales represented an 11 percent increase, the Greater Fort Lauderdale Realtors said.
Prices and sales also were up in nearly all metropolitan areas throughout Florida.
"While investors have been the major driving force ... we are beginning to see more owner-occupants enter the market," Florida Realtors Chief Economist John Tuccillo said. "This is an encouraging sign."
Realtor boards join forces
The Realtors Association of the Palm Beaches says it's merging with the Realtors Association of St. Lucie, effective Sept. 1.
RAPB Chief Executive Carol Van Gorp will stay on to lead the new entity, which will be known as the Realtors Association of the Palm Beaches and St. Lucie County.
RAPB said the deal allows both groups to offer expanded services and reduce operating costs.
"By combining our numbers we gain tremendous purchasing power," Van Gorp said. "We also increase our influence and our capacity to provide more and better tools, resources and training, which benefits our members and the buying and selling public."
Hallandale Beach seeks developer
The city of Hallandale Beach is looking for proposals to develop a 2 ½-acre site on Dixie Highway.
The property, on the northwest corner of Dixie and Foster Road, is zoned for a mix of residential and commercial uses. The city will retain ownership but lease the land to a developer, spokesman Peter F. Dobens said.
Hallandale Beach's Community Redevelopment Agency wants to reach a deal by January.

A tombstone doesn't typically come with a title or a deed of ownership, which is too bad in the case of Lee Harvey Oswald, because one could have helped settle a brewing lawsuit.
The infamous assassin's gravestone has been on display since 2009 at Historic Auto Attractions, a private museum in Roscoe. But David Card of Dallas says the artifact rightly belongs to his family. Card is determined to bring the tombstone back to Texas and is preparing to sue the museum for ownership. He also intends to sue his stepcousin, Holly Ragan, for selling it.
