Tim's Tent
Last edited Thu Mar 1, 2012, 08:52 PM USA/ET - Edit history (3)
Well, it's that time of the evening again... setting in the lawn chair, finishing off the lukewarm remains of supper on the coleman stove... (actually, Occupy Erie has moved indoors for the winter). So I must occupy this virtual tent. All are welcome to chime in, I have extra chairs. What's on your mind tonite,
Myself, the main thing that wowed me was the news of Brietbart passing so soon after his anti-occupy rant. You know you are accomplishing something when the big guns take you seriously enough to worry about you. And apparently he was taking occupy quite seriously.
Since I have to Occupy in a virtual tentfor now, I guess I better tell you what it looks like. In the spirit of my Irish ancestors who managed to be on the right side of history in the civil war, make my tent plain white canvas of the type used by Union reenactors. I want the most bang for my buck against the klan types. Big enough to stand up in, but small enough to rollup and carry. And I tell you in truth I have hiked with real canvas surplus tents long ago. They are not light. Bbut they are nearly indestructable and have soul that the vinyl taffeta does not. Kinda like me.
I loved last fall talking to other occupiers after events, it was sometimes dead serious and other times absolutely hilarious. We joked around a lot and had fun. I would hate to see this group turn into a dry, lifeless bulliten board of announcements (although we still need them here, but not exclusively!) Or a bunch of cut and pastes of dry ideological differences between competing cliques. The occupy I saw unfold last fall was
alive, had a human face and soul. I would hate to see that change.
I hear the coffee starting to bubble in the pot. (Try to find an old fashioned perky coffe pot lately? Good luck...) Hold your cup out. It's a little strong...

I recently got a new MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard 10.6.5 and I have noticed that the mouseover effect is not working properly. Maybe I am describing it wrong. Maybe it is the alt mouse effect or onmouse over. whatever it is, when I move my mouse pointer over an image, it doesn't bring up the alternate information that it used to bring up on my old Leopard MacBook Pro.
Another example is I used Firefox and the Download Status Bar plugin. When I used to put my mouse pointer over it, a yellow box would appear showing the download speed, the location it is being downloaded to, the the amount downloaded and left to download etc. This is an image of what I am talking about. . Now when hover over it, I get nothing.
I also use no script and when I mouseover it, it automatically opens up which it never used to do.
I don't think it is a problem with the plugin but system wide because there are other things that I notice.
If anyone has any idea of this problem, I would love to help. I know this is very vague and really not very well descriptive but any help would be wonderful.

And it's not only the cheese fries that are huge�it's everything. This place serves larger-than-life hamburgers, salads, sandwiches, and desserts, but the Bleu Bacon Burger is their true claim to fame�a burger smothered in bleu cheese dressing, topped with crispy bacon, and finished off with creamy Swiss cheese. A rival to that fame is their barbecue dipping sauce, a secret recipe made from what could only be pure heaven. So stuff your face, because at Training Table, no one makes it out hungry.

Shippensburg University has developed a partnership with The University of Arkansas at Little Rock to train school district literacy coaches in this national recognized model. The University of Arkansas at Little Rock (UALR) Partnerships in Comprehensive Literacy (PCL) is a school-reform model dedicated to increasing student achievement. The model uses literacy as a tool for measuring school improvement in four related areas: student learning, teacher perceptions, school climate, and school processes.
The model design incorporates the following features:
Feature 1: A Framework for Literacy uses a workshop approach for meeting the needs of all students, including an integrated curriculum, inquiry-based learning, and differentiated instruction. Students acquire problem solving strategies for working on tasks that increase in complexity and difficulty.
Feature 2: Coaching and Mentoring uses scaffolding techniques to assist teacher in taking on new learning, including a gradual release model for assuming responsibility.
Feature 3: Model Classrooms are transformed from traditional approaches of instruction into literacy labs that become settings for observing the model in action.
Feature 4: High Standards are based on state, national, and professional standards with benchmarks along the way to ensure that all children reach their highest potential.
Feature 5: Accountability includes a school wide, seamless assessment system with multiple measures for evaluating success, such as formative and summative assessments, student portfolios, assessment walls, and school reports.
Feature 6: Interventions are targeted to meet the needs of diverse readers, including reading Recovery for the lowest students in first grade and K-5 intervention groups for other needy students.
Feature 7: Professional Development is embedded into the school climate, including literacy team meetings, professional learning communities, teacher book clubs, peer observations, cluster visits, teacher conferences, and demonstration levels.
Feature 8: Well-Designed Literacy Plan is created for continuous improvement, including short and long-term goals as related to literacy with a benchmark of three years with a monitoring system.
Feature 9: Technology is used for communications, presentations, data collection, publications, and networking opportunities.
Feature 10: Spotlighting and Advocacy are techniques for disseminating information on the model, including news releases, research articles, and presentations by school teams, and schools site visits.
The foundation of this model is literacy coaches. There are two possible district level of coaches - District coaches and Building Coaches
District Coaches --District Coaches are school district employees who enroll in seven courses that comprise the literacy coach program and who are qualified to train building coaches at the end of their training year. In their role, a district coach acts as a building coach in one elementary school building and trains coaches for other elementary school buildings or neighboring school district buildings. The training for a district coach involves 21 credits of post-master's coursework which is to be completed in a 12 month timeframe. At the completion of the coursework, a Literacy Coach University Registration will be issued by Shippensburg University of Pennsylvania.
Clinical - 3 credits
Theory - 3 credits
Supervision - 3 credits
Building Coaches -- Building Coaches are trained to work full time in a school supporting teachers as they take on the Comprehensive Literacy Model. The training for building coaches is a minimum of 9 credits of coursework in one academic year. Building Coaches can continue their training and obtain the remaining 12 credits to be awarded a Literacy Coach University Registration. Following are the courses for building coaches:
Every member of the graduate faculty in the Department of Teacher Education holds an earned doctorate. The faculty is known not only for its high professional qualifications but for the excellence of its relationships with its students.
Lynn Baynum, Ph.D., Marywood University , Children's Literature, Foundations of Reading.
Janet Bufalino, Ed.D., Indiana University of Pennsylvania, Reading Recovery and Early Intervention.
Christopher Keyes, Ph.D., Vanderbilt University, English Language Learners, Literacy Coaching, Middle Level Literacy.

Boston Marathon Runner Leaves Post Polio Syndrome at the Starting Line
Crossing the finish line of the Boston Marathon, Mary McManus felt a cocoon of shame, humiliation and pain from polio stricken limbs lift from her soul and dissipate in the cool spring air. After months of rigorous training, the moment of redemption arrived. The butterfly was born.
Fifteen months earlier, Mary had declared, "I am going to run a marathon." Mary knew God was calling her to reach beyond her normal fears and physical limitations and well, go for it, all the way, to the end. She knew she would run this race whatever it took, that she was supposed to do this.
Inspired, her husband Tom and daughter Ruth Anne decided to train and run with her, dedicating their fund raising efforts to Spaulding Rehab Hospital where Mary was originally diagnosed with post-polio syndrome and given physical therapy and tools for Mary to regain her independence and mobility. Team McManus was born.
"I traded in my polio shoes for running shoes. From running for 30 seconds to having completed the Hyannis Half Marathon and 21 miles on our long training runs, I am ready to run the 113th Boston Marathon," stated Mary on their fund raising page as they trained each month through warm and cold weather.
On one of the training runs, Ruth Anne yelled, "Hey, mom, stop. I see a quarter."
Mary didn't want to stop since she had her momentum going through Heart Break Hill, a series of hills which would fall around mile 20 on Marathon Monday. Pausing for her daughter, she smiled in amazement when her daughter held the quarter face up in her hand. Of all the people featured on quarters in recent times, here was a quarter with Helen Keller, a woman known for her independence and achievement despite being blind and deaf. This was one of the many signs of encouragement from God Mary received to let her know that she could do it.
Training was filled with fun moments of laughter and complete melt-downs. In one incident, Ruth Anne shouted, "Mom, be careful" as they ran towards an icy spot only to find herself in a snow drift the next second.
"The team began their 26.6 mile trek - a 57 year old man, a former couch potato daughter, and a 55 year old female polio survivor all thinking, 'how could three less likely people be out here?'"
In another, both women doubled over in hysterical laughing when Mary noticed the strap to her running bra hanging below her shirt. It just gave way and took their controlled breathing and momentum with it as they laughed in spite of themselves. Tom turned around to see why his faithful team wasn't keeping up with him on this particular run. Grateful to see nothing serious had happened, he laughed too. Running and training together had become a bonding experience for all of them.
Finally, the day arrived. It was chilly but the sun was shining. Mary and Team McManus tied their numbers securely around their waists and lined up with the early start group for the mobility impaired runners.
"This is the moment I've prepared for," thought Mary. "I'll make it no matter what." With that, the team began their 26.6 mile trek from Hopkinton to Boston - a 57 year old man, a former couch potato daughter, and a 55 year old female polio survivor all thinking, "how could three less likely people be out here?"
The beginning was the toughest because Mary had not trained along this leg of the race. Once they were through the first part and the next stretch became familiar, the threesome
enjoyed the run knowing that every step drew them closer to the finish line.
Town by town, they would reach the markers indicating one more leg of the journey was behind them. Mary knew various friends would be along the path praying and cheering them on. These same friends and many more helped them raise an incredible $10,535 for the hospital, $1,500 more than their goal of $9,000.
With their names plastered all over their clothes, cheers from the side rose: "Go Team McManus! Go Mary!" Mary knew they could see that she was running from the heart.
Drawing closer and closer, a stiff wind picked up and the weather dropped ten degrees. It became gray and chilly and Mary knew her joints wouldn't be happy. On a good day, she would struggle to adjust to cold weather due to osteoarthritis, and the symptom of cold intolerance from post polio syndrome. Fortunately, part of her winter training in the cold temperatures helped her now. The mental exercises came back to her.
"Imagine hot lava pouring into your bones," she told herself. Towards the end, her trainer ran alongside her with more words of encouragement: "Don't stop. One step at a time. Put one foot in front of the other."
Eating salt to prevent cramping, Mary and her team made it to the last water stop before it closed. Running through an underpass, they kept their tradition of screaming to hear their echoes. In this case, Mary's screams came out as a welcome relief to pain and became an expression of an overwhelming sense of euphoria. They were so close.
Time and time again, Mary had asked herself during training, "can my body really do this?" Reaching the finish line at the end of a long, long day or 7 hours and 49 minutes to be precise, Mary was able to answer her own question: "Yes!"
"I never thought I would say this in a million years but running is a lot, a lot of fun," says Mary, after finishing another 3.1 mile run just two weeks after the marathon was over. She didn't just stop running just because the big race was over. Now, Mary inspires others to keep going until they reach their goals, one step at a time.
BIO: Mary McManus found a new passion in poetry and creating greeting cards after being diagnosed with post polio syndrome. The race that set her spirit free now fuels this passion. Her work and words can be found at www.newworldgreetings.com and www.newworldgreetings.blogspot.com. A documentary is coming out later this year based on her overcoming the symptoms of post-polio syndrome and going on to running and finishing the 2009 Boston Marathon. View the clip above.
Thank you Mary, for sharing your Story with us.

I've never heard of Post Polio but I looked it up. It looks terribly painful, so all the more amazing that you did a marathon. I love the highlighted quote from you about you, your husband and daughter, 3 unlikely candidates ;)Keep running! You sound like an amazing person. Also I'd definitely read if you post more stories about your life.
Hi Mary,what an inspiration you are! Love your greeting cards too.And Sarah, you told Mary's story so very well. Thanks to both of you.
Dear Sarah and Joyce - so glad I my journey touched your hearts. I will work on posting more stories about my life, and look forward to reading yours!
You just give and give and it shines right through the pages. My mom ran a marathon at age 64 - her first. I'm sharing this story with her too :)

'moonlighting' as consultants with private, traffic design firms...IN PLAIN SIGHT ! And when you make a complaint to the Town about a politically connnected, local business, who contributes to traffic violations, say, and the Town employee alerts the violators to 'back off' for a few days, until the heat cools down, and then it's business as usual. BELIEVE ME, THEY RUN AWAY, when you confront them about it...but that's all that happens...back to bu$ine$$ as U$ual !

I have 3-7 deer go through my backyard daily every morning and night I live across from a preserve and from what I understand the hunters didn't get any or never asked to hunt there. (I heard both stories) The other night while driving home with my daughter in 1/8 of a mile we had 12 deer jump out in front of the car and then another 2 closer to home. Earlier that same night I was in Orient and saw deer that looked like it was bedded down for the night , on the sidewalk. When I turned around to check it the poor thing got scared and tried to run away but on the upper parts of her legs because all 4 were broken. I did call the police to put her down.. What kind of a person hits a deer and doesn't turn around to check whether the animal is ok? it was obvious she couldn't get to far from where she was hit.

text: Enriching the Middle East's Economic Future IV May 3-5, 2009 Doha, Qatar Downloads Doha-Report-2009.pdf Qatar Brochure.pdf The Global Financial Crisis 1. There was a consensus that the blame for the current economic challenges should be laid on American consumers run amok and globalization gone awry. To fix these two causes the group recommended, respectively, greater production in the U.S. to reduce imports, and more balanced demand across the globe. As the U.S. consumes less, who will fill this consumption void? Tapping into global consumption potential will be critical. 2. A widely accepted view at the meeting was that American over-consumption, the unregulated banking system, trade imbalances, monetary policy, and other systemic economic failures drove the financial crisis. These developments together have killed the old economic structure and created the need to develop a new global economic system. 3. Several participants argued that the economic system is not the underlying problem. Rather, a lack of proper regulation created the financial collapse. These groups recommended that the U.S. should continue to stabilize the financial situation and let the dust settle before making any dramatic changes to the current economic system. 4. While economic and financial objectives are more easily laid out than resolved, it is critical that the main goal must be to reduce unemployment in the U.S. and globally. 5. Implications of the global crisis are: Increased political and social instability globally due to an increasingly impoverished middle class. Shifts in the world's balance of power that will leave China more involved in international institutions, a reordered EU, and great military might in China due due to its large blue water navy. Global demystification with the Western/American free market capitalist model. 6. Although it is the harder path, the strategy forward must focus on improving the lives of the 99.8% of Americans who contribute 50% of the American economy through increased employment and rebuilding from the bottom up rather than trickle-down policies for the other 0.2% which produces the remaining 50% of the US economy. 7. Those who have benefited from the current crisis include: regulators (excluding the SEC), lobbyists representing banks, restructuring lawyers and specialists, most debtholders of U.S. banks and insurance companies, and investors with good credit. Those who have lost out include: financial markets, financial industry executives, real estate owners, manufacturing, and countries depending on remittances, to name a few. Calculations for improving the economic recovery must take account of these 'winners' and 'losers.' 8. Key recommendations for reform of international economic institutions in the wake of the global economic crisis and changes in geopolitical power are the following: Rise of the G-20: The G-20 has by now eclipsed the G-8. Most panelists viewed this as a positive development, as the G-20 will involve a more diverse and representative group in making the important decisions for the global economy. Future of the IMF and World Bank: The international community could not succeed in replacing the Bretton Woods institutions wholesale. Instead, efforts should be focused on reform of the existing institutions so that they can better match the needs of the emerging multipolar world order. The Poorest: The rise of the G-20 and reform of the IMF and World Bank will provide new opportunities for billions in China, India, and elsewhere to sit at the table of international economic governance. Still, hundreds of millions of others in the world's very poorest countries will remain absent. For both ethical and security reasons, world powers, both old and new, must try to meet the needs of these poorest of the poor. America and the World Now 9. Two basic trends shaping global politics today were recognized: 1) the rising power of the state and 2) the empowerment of individuals and non-state actors. Given these two realities, the new president should apply five key approaches to American foreign policy: Reclaim America's identity so that its actions are consistent with its values. Redefine how the U.S. frames major problems facing the world. Expand dialogue with fewer limits and barriers. Continue to increase investment in a civilian/diplomatic corps. Exercise strategic restraint and patience. While the recommendations bear a high political price because of their delayed payoffs, they are America's best chance at global security. 10. The U.S. should look towards smart diplomacy, winning the hearts and minds of the world through development, the granting of more student visas, and so forth. 11. Institutions, including the U.N. should be reformed and utilized to deal with international disputes. The Financial Crisis and the Middle East 12. Regarding America's foreign agenda the following policy recommendations were made: The U.S. is overextended and will inevitably revert to its traditional offshore role--a reality that will include normalizing relations with Iran, Syria and Israel. As the U.S. undergoes this shift, policy makers will have to bear in mind that the offshore field will become increasingly crowded and accommodation will be necessary. In the Middle East, the U.S will have to reassess and maintain its role as a balancing player. In general, America's preeminence in the world will decline in the shadow of the financial crisis, but that does not necessarily mean that it cannot serve its interests through greater acuity. Oil Prices and Stability 13. What is the validity of the concept of a "fair price" for oil? A "fair price," some argue, would provide more predictability to oil prices and guarantee sufficient income in order for investment in new oil sources to be profitable. In the end, though, market forces will set the price. 14. While the global economic crisis has had its effects on the Middle East, it was generally agreed that this is a moment of opportunity for those considering investing in the region, or for those in the region considering investments elsewhere. Because of the downturn, many assets are undervalued, and those willing to invest could reap the rewards. Relative to other parts of the world, the Middle East has better rates of growth and more liquidity for investing. 15. The lack of an oil law in Iraq is making investors cautious about investing in the country's oil sector. Iraq's government and industry need to enter into a dialogue to devise a comprehensive system for the country's petroleum sector. 16. The current moment presents a great opportunity for Middle Eastern countries to shift their massive accumulation of wealth into investment and engagement in the global financial system. Women Mean Business in the Global Economy 17. While progress for women in business is evident in all of the legal systems of the countries represented, many political, financial and cultural barriers still exist. In order to overcome existing challenges and move women forward in the public and private sectors, the group recommends that states: Educate women from primary school through college. Work to bring women out of poverty. Select female leaders at all levels of government and establish more aggressive policies that encourage growth for women in business. Educate both men and women on the value of women's participation in the work force. Continue dialogue about women's issues among policy makers and academics. Specifically, hold additional discussions at major regional conferences on this topic. 18. While few believe in quotas for women, even opponents acknowledge that they can be a necessary tool. Notably, women are well-represented in the lower levels of business, but poorly represented at the corporate or board levels. This disparity shows that discrimination still exists and quotas could be used to fight this inequality. If you force social change by putting women in jobs, they will either rise to the occasion or step aside, so there should be no fear of quotas. The Problems with Terrorism 19. The suggestion was made that terrorism is mostly a political phenomenon that demands a politically-focused solution, rather than force, which is the current approach. Socioeconomic factors affecting terrorism should also be addressed. 20. With regard to terrorism, Pakistan has been unable to adequately address the challenges posed by the empowerment of the Taliban and al-Qaeda following the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan. To alleviate these challenges: The Western and Muslim communities must jointly address the issue of terrorism in both Pakistan and Afghanistan. In particular, all parties must address seriously the danger of nuclear weapons in Pakistan falling into the hands of jihadi extremists. The war against terrorism must also incorporate the ideological battle forged by extremists. Central Asia 21. The Gulf countries should establish a special fund to assist development in Central Asian countries lacking oil and gas but dependent on remittances from the Gulf. This fund could assist these countries in their efforts to launch different labor-absorbing projects, primarily those of small to medium size. 22. The international community should support Tajikistan to preserve social and political stability. This will enable Tajikistan to remain an access point to Afghanistan for non-military goods.

USED TO LOVE BREW CITY....BUT NOT THE NEW ONE! – Brew City has always been a favorite of ours, so we tried the new location, May 20th.
The warm, inviting, fun atmosphere from the old location was replaced by a pristine, cold, bright, snooty atmosphere.
The menu has changed, before diners could get an assorted platter of the bar-be-que meats. Remember Brew City is a bar-be-que restaurant, well not anymore, you don't even get bar-be-que sauce with your meals. You get 'AUS JUS' with brisket?? And, the brisket was absolutely all 'fat'-awful!
Also, a 'bar-be-que' place should have good ribs, too. No the ribs were dry and bland and for the 'meal' you got about 5 or 6 ribs. A rib meal is a slab, unless otherwise stated.
Needless to say, that will be the last time my family goes to Brew City. Once again, the old saying goes, "If It's Not Broken, Don't Fix It!"
This downtown hot spot serves some of the best slow-smoked Southern-style barbecue ribs in Milwaukee. – In Short
The atmosphere is festive inside this bustling warehouse-style joint. Tiffany-like chandeliers hang from a lofty ceiling and vintage beer signs highlight the eclectic decor. The large bar area, featuring nine TVs tuned to local sports events, is typically packed with loyal patrons who come for the food and stay for the social pub atmosphere. The kitchen serves up Southern-style smokehouse favorites like gooey baby back ribs, tender rotisserie chicken and juicy prime rib.
when the table get pulled to make the dance floor this great restruant turns in to a great bar scene, with its outdoor beer garden and street vender like outdoor bar its a lot of fun. And the noon lunches are great, sit outside if the weather is nice and go back at night to see a great Milwaukee bar.
Stinky Fish – We went there this last Friday. It was the worst fish fry I have ever had! My husband did enjoy his dinner of beef brisket but at $14 he should have!
Changes – After a couple of changes, Brew City may have finally gotten it right. It's a fun, energetic place to start out a night. The food was excellent and the servers looked like they were having fun. It's also my new favorite place to catch the Sunday games. It has a great sports bar feel and a huge screen TV. Overall, my experiences there have been more than satisfactory.
God Awful! – The service was terrible and the food was less that good. First, it took the waiter forever to bring us our drinks. Next he took the food to the wrong table. He took it to the table next to ours and offered no apology. Waitress who brought me soup spilled it on me. Never once checked on us to see how our food was. Were there for nearly 2 hrs waiting for our food, while gropus of 4 or 5 who got there well after us were leaving well before us. Overall, it was a terrible dinning experience and I won't go back!

For me, the London Olympics couldn't have come at a better time. The Colorado Rockies stink and all I can think about right now is Peyton Manning's debut as a Denver Bronco. As usual, the Olympic games are turning out to be a great mindless escape for me, no matter what sport I find myself watching late on a Sunday afternoon or late into the evening.
Even though we are just into the first full week of competition, I've put in some time in front of the tube watching various swimming events, diving, water polo, gymnastics and, my favorite, beach volleyball. And while the competition in each of the events has been really fun to watch, I must say NBC has been way over the top in their coverage of the Games.
OK, NBC has always been somewhat over the top in its Olympic coverage. (The day Al Roker, tight spandex and all, tried the luge during the winter Olympics a few years back, was the tipping point, I think.) Spread across four or five NBC affiliated networks, including NBC, you can catch 24-hours of Olympic action. If you have the time, and pay for cable, NBC will give you the opportunity to catch every single second of Olympic action from the opening ceremony to the closing ceremony.
I have no problem with this. In fact, it is exactly the kind of coverage that should be put forth for a world spectacle that is the Olympic Games – winter or summer edition.
What I'm now realizing is that it's all the extracurricular coverage I can't stand. Do we really need Roker, Meredith Vieira, Matt Lauer clad in colorful spandex participating in a faux speed-walking competition? Do we need the tearful backstory of every Olympic athlete that comes across the screen? Do we need John McEnroe doing interviews with his weird blond hair? (OK, maybe so.)
Perhaps NBC and I got off on the wrong foot this Olympics. It was during the opening ceremony when Lauer and Vieira wouldn't stop commenting on everything that went on during the ceremony instead of just allowing the viewers to interpret the show on their own. Yes, some commentary is necessary to help explain the story, but the two failed to strike the balance and gave us much more than we needed. It was to the point where I almost turned it off.
Once the games started, I guess I was a bit jaded. NBC's primetime coverage, which usually isn't live because of the time difference, is highly produced. Before a featured race or event, NBC will give you the full emotional backstory of an athlete and follow it up with their race or event. NBC gives you a reason to cheer for whomever it is they just featured. The network has done this as long as they have produced Olympic coverage and they do it well. You've seen it, I've seen it, it's nothing new. Drama at its best and we all love it.
In London, for some reason, NBC has decided to act as some sort of accountability organization as well. What I mean here is NBC gives you the tearful backstory, then the competition or event, and then the on-field (or wherever) interview with the athlete that just competed. Hopefully the interview is a cheerful "I-can't-believe-I-just-won-gold" moment, and it often is.
There are other interviews that aren't so heartwarming. Already in London, there have been several times where there was a disappointing loss, the athlete is obviously heartbroken, and yet, there's Andrea Kremer sticking a microphone in his or her face asking, "How did this happen?" "Tell me how sad you are?" "Tell me about the disappointment you are feeling right now?" "How could you let your country down like you just did?" "How proud do you think your parents are right now?" "What's your coach think of you right now?" "Only silver?" "Looking for a bridge?"
OK, maybe not that bad, but you get the idea.
For whatever reason, this year NBC has no problem building an athlete up and then severely tearing them down if they don't perform. After failing to medal at all, let alone another gold medal, NBC, in so many words, did this to Michael Phelps after the 400 individual medley finals. His response? Not much. He was obviously disappointed. What more could he say? "I should have worked harder?" "I knew I didn't really want the gold this time?" "God wasn't on my side in this race?"
Give me a break.
NBC did the same thing to U.S. swimmer Ryan Lochte after his slow anchor time in the men's 400-meter relay and after he didn't take gold in the 200-meter freestyle event. This was going to be Lochte's Olympics. He looked like he was going to cry. He didn't need to say anything, yet the on-the-floor NBC interviewer prodded on.
I know the Olympics are about the thrill of winning and the agony of defeat but NBC needs to chill out just a little in their post-event interviews.
The most blatant example of this was during the women's gymnastics events earlier in the week, when the face of the U.S. team and reigning world champion Jordyn Wieber didn't score high enough to qualify for the all-around competition. As soon as the scores were posted and it sunk in that two of her teammates would be competing in the all-around, not her, all NBC cameras zoomed in to catch her tears.
And did the tears flow? Of course they did. She was obviously devastated. At one point as the team looked like they were leaving the arena, she found a quick exit and tried to use it. One of the helpful Olympic volunteers stopped her and told her the exit was the other way, just over there past all those cameras. Wieber wanted out of the limelight for a second to collect herself, instead she found herself trapped with no escape. So over by the cameras, she stood behind as her teammates cheerfully talked about their victory while she cried in the background. It was touching drama to say the least, but I honestly felt bad for her. And then she had to field questions from the NBC reporter.
"Tell me the disappointment you feel right now…"
Sheesh. As tough as it gets.
In pro sports athletes who have just suffered a loss can usually go into the locker room, throw a tantrum and then participate in interviews after they've released their anger. These poor Olympic athletes, most of them kids, have to go in front of the camera without that release. I guarantee Wieber just wanted to get into a locker room, have a breakdown, cry, kick the shit out of a locker, and then come back out for an interview. NBC would rather just stick it to them for dramatic effect. They've gone too far, if you ask me, in a lot of these cases.
And Frankly, NBC didn't need a post-event interview with Wieber. The cameras that caught the tears, told the story. We all knew how she felt. I'm not sure anyone, besides NBC, needed to hear her verbalize her emotions. Sometimes actions speak louder than words, I guess is the cliché to use here.
And that is maybe the cliché that's needed to describe the entire NBC production of the Olympics. Forget all the sideshows, TV personalities, and dramatic effects and stick to putting the Olympic games on TV. Put 24-hours of non-stop coverage of actual events on TV and we'll all be happy.
Let's go back to the time when the Olympics were about competition and not about producing drama. If we know anything about Olympic competition, the drama will come on its own and in the right way.

NBC Going Too Far in Producing Olympic Drama
For me, the London Olympics couldn't have come at a better time. The Colorado Rockies stink and all I can think about right now is Peyton Manning's debut as a Denver Bronco. As usual, the Olympic games are turning out to be a great mindless escape for me, no matter what sport I find myself watching late on a Sunday afternoon or late into the evening.

West Virginia's "take" from casino and racetrack gambling plunged in July, with officials admitting new casinos in Ohio are to blame.
July revenue from video gambling at West Virginia racetracks was $60.84 million, down $7.19 million from July 2011. Table gambling revenue from casinos was $6.53 million, about 10 percent less than the previous July.
Within months, two more Ohio casinos, in Columbus and Cincinnati, will open.
Clearly, state officials need to begin planning for even more loss in gambling revenue. Failing to do so would be a sucker's bet.

Hi all!
Anybody here remember bodyforlife-tracker.com?? It was my go to every time I started a new challenge. Any old members from there on here?? So sad to see that tracker is no longer there. I started a new challenge today, anyone else start today??
I heard about that site just before I started my challenge on the 1st, and was sad to find that it was down. It sounded like it was a great resource! I hope that whoever owned the domain will renew it and get it back up and running again!
Bodyforlife-tracker.com was not a website that was provided by the Body-for-LIFE program or EAS. We're sorry to hear that the tools you used the in the past are not longer available, but we wish you the best with your new Challenge!
~Tiffany, the BFL Team
Hello- I have very good news. The Body For Life Tracker at www.bodyforlife-tracker.com will be back up and running before the end of the year. It will also include all prior data. There will be a lot of improvements as well! You can log back into your account also.
So is the tracker back up and running? I went to it but there aren't any new posts.

Courses of Study
Departments and Programs
Majors and Minors
Students and faculty in the Psychology Department are engaged in the pursuit of new knowledge about the nature of cognition, emotion, motivation, and behavior. Our curriculum is designed to provide the information and skills needed to enable students to understand and join in on this quest for new knowledge. An extensive program of laboratory research provides the means for students and faculty to work together to explore interesting phenomena in cognition, culture, development, emotion, motivation, neuroscience, perception, personality, psychopathology, and social psychology. The concentration in neuroscience allows students to explore an interdisciplinary field combining the study of psychology and biology. More information on research in the various laboratories may be found on the department's website, www.colby.edu/psychology.
Students who major in psychology will graduate knowing how to ask good questions and how to find and communicate the answers to those questions. These skills are useful in any field of endeavor, especially for graduate study in psychology or other professional programs such as law or medicine and as general preparation for entry into business, educational, nonprofit, or governmental work settings.
Because Psychology 214 and 215 impart skills that are crucial for the required advanced work in collaborative research, students must maintain minimum grades of C in these courses in order to continue in the major. These courses should be taken in the sophomore year. All requirements for the major must be met in conventionally graded courses.
Requirements for the Major in PsychologyPsychology 111, 214, 215, 420; at least two courses from 251, 253, 254, 255 or 256; at least two courses from 232, 233, 234, 236, 275; at least one seminar with an associated course in collaborative research; at least one other 300-level course.
One year of laboratory experience in the natural sciences is recommended for all majors.
Requirements for the Major in Psychology: NeurosciencePsychology 111, 214, 215, 233, 374 or 375, 420; at least two courses from 232, 234, 236, 254; at least two courses from 251, 253, 255 or 256; at least one seminar with an associated course in collaborative research. In addition, Biology 163, 164, and 274; at least one biology course from 225, 232, 276, 279, 315, 357, 373, 374. A student may not double major in biology with a concentration in neuroscience and psychology: neuroscience.
Honors in Psychology or Psychology: NeuroscienceStudents who are invited by the department to participate in the honors program may submit a formal application near the end of the junior year. In addition to fulfilling the basic requirements for the psychology major, students must complete the honors research sequence (Psychology 483, 484). Upon vote of the department, the student will be awarded his or her degree "With Honors in Psychology" or "With Honors in Psychology: Neuroscience."

text: Tim White Archives Email Author Why We Need Mary Fleming Buckeye Farm Beat Agricultural Health Program faces funding squeeze. Published on: December 4, 2009 Tweet Post to Your Wall. Email Blog RSS Permalink Print Mary Fleming says swine and poultry producers should be among those near the top of the priority list for H1N1 inoculations as well as shots for seasonal flu. Transmission of the disease from humans to pigs or poultry could be devastating to the nation's food supply, she points out. Furthermore the presence of both flu organisms in a host is what leads to the possible mutation of the disease to something more potent and dangerous, she says. "There is a huge connection between health care and swine industry," she points out. "We use heart valves from pigs in transplants. Studies on the endocrine-producing islets of Langerhans in pork have helped us make big strides in understanding and treating diabetes," she says. She should know. She heads up the Agricultural Health Program as a registered nurse at Grady Hospital in Delaware, Ohio. She is the only full time agricultural nurse in the state. She has contact with some 6,000 people a year including farmers and others in agriculture. She gives presentations ranging from farm first aid and safety to safe pesticide handling. She developed a training program for dealing with grain entrapment. It has been translated into four languages. She helps farmers who have been disabled use technology and equipment to return to their work. It is a unique job and she is uniquely prepared to do it. The wife of a dairy farmer, Fleming grew up on a farm herself. She raised 4-H animals and helped with farm chores and field work. She broke and trained an Arabian horse that was born on her family farm. She still has 21 dairy goats and a pumpkin patch on the farm. The trouble is the program she heads up is suffering from the state's budgetary squeeze. It appears that funding will run out at the end of the month. It is part of a financial bind that has impact many of the state's rural hospitals. With fewer patients the hospitals carry less clout and have a smaller pool of resources. "All it would take is $100,000 to continue this outreach program," she says. "If I can find five sources willing to put up $20,000 each we could continue this work." Fleming was presenting her case to Ohio Farm Bureau delegates last week in hopes the organization would be one of those that steps forward. "If I can save one life, I can make the return on that investment worthwhile," she says. Agriculture is well recognized as one of the most dangerous occupations in the world. It would seem like a valuable step to hang on to one of the few people who specialize in making it safer.

Celebrity Cruises' new Celebrity Reflection 'clearly' presents industry's most unique shower
After revealing in April that the "Reflection Suite" on Celebrity Cruises' Celebrity Reflection will feature an all-glass shower extending out over the edge of the ship, the modern luxury brand has received so much interest that it has released renderings of the intriguing space.
The 1,636-square-foot Reflection Suite with 194-square-foot veranda will be Celebrity's first two-bedroom suite, complete with its distinctive sea-view bathroom with soothing rain shower, and the host of amenities associated with Celebrity's luxury suites, including the brand's round-the-clock European butler service.
Celebrity's Senior VP of Hotel Operations Lisa Lutoff-Perlo was completely "transparent" about how the brand will preserve the privacy of guests using the unique glass shower: "We made a big investment in ensuring our guests can enjoy the shower entirely free of any concerns of being seen," said Lutoff-Perlo. "They can enjoy breathtaking sea views while discreetly showering, courtesy of the shower's special reflective glass. But, if they seek even further privacy, the shower also features 'smart glass.' At the flick of a switch, guests can activate an electrochromatic technology which instantly transforms the glass from transparent to translucent. We even went so far as to install a special sensor, so if guests prefer, the glass can be automatically transformed for them. It's yet another example of the modern luxury experience that only Celebrity delivers."
Nestled in the highly desirable corner location of the ship's 14th deck, and designed by New York-based BG Studio International Inc., the Reflection Suite is adjacent to the brand's five new "Signature Suites," each offering a 441-square-foot stateroom area and 118-square foot veranda, with floor-to-ceiling windows and veranda doors, all designed to maximize the stunning views of the sea. Celebrity's Signature Suites each can accommodate up to four guests, and also will offer the luxurious 24/7 butler service that is a hallmark of every suite across the Celebrity fleet.
The entire area housing the Reflection Suite and Signature Suites can be accessed only by cardkey, exclusively among guests booked in the elite group of suites, such that a family or other group of up to 26 guests can enjoy a private, six-suite modern luxury vacation experience.
Driven by high demand for Celebrity's industry-first AquaClass category of spa-inspired accommodations, and by way of an additional deck being added to Celebrity Reflection, as previously announced, Celebrity also will introduce on Celebrity Reflection the line's first AquaClass Suites. Each will offer 300 square feet of luxurious interior space and spacious 79-square-foot verandas, paired with all the amenities associated with Celebrity's AquaClass accommodations, including exclusive and complimentary access to the highly-rated specialty restaurant, "Blu," noted for its inviting, modern design and flavorful, healthy cuisine. The new suites also will offer the luxurious 24/7 butler service that is a hallmark of every suite across the Celebrity fleet.
In addition to the 34 new AquaClass Suites, Celebrity Reflection also will present an additional eight luxurious new Sky Suites, 19 additional plush ConciergeClass staterooms, and 11 additional inside staterooms, bringing the stateroom/suite total to 1,515.
Celebrity Reflection will enter service October 12, 2012, on a nine-night European cruise from Amsterdam to Barcelona.

Wow, what a beautiful dress! It's stretchy, so it fit me both before and after my pregnancy (and through most of it). I wear a black shirt underneath for modesty, and I always get tons of compliments in it. The only slight problem is that it is a little longer than I expected. I am 5'6, and it drags quite a bit on the ground if I don't wear 4 heels. So to fix the problem, I just wear heels! If you're five-ten or taller then you can probably just wear regular sandals with it.

Got it today, couldn't track the package so was doubting if it comes on time. But it did.I really like the dress, the color is great. But I'm agree with other reviews that the dress is long, so its good either for tall ladies (I'm 5'7", so taller than me) or its good if you wear high heels. I'm lucky I wear high heels :)And as well, its more open in breast area than how it looks on pic. But you can close it somehow I guess.Also, the material is not of very cool quality, but for this price it is much more you get than you pay :)

I (wife; not account holder) purchased this dress for a party. It arrived quickly, which was good. And that's the only good thing about this dress. It's hideous. It's way too long. It's got weird bunched material directly under the breast area. It did not arrive in a gift bag, as was stated it would. When I decided to return it, I learned that they will charge a 20% restocking fee (only in the fine print after you click on the shipping (nothing under returns on product page) policies does this come up - and even then, it says *some* items *may* be charged the fee - not all items and it doesn't indicate which ones - you know they do this just to discourage returns). So imagine my incredible irritation when it arrives, doesn't fit well, is ugly and then will cost me almost as much to ship back/restock as it will to keep it. I may just burn the stupid thing and send them the melted remains in a box.

this dress I would recommend getting a size smaller and it is very very long so it is great if you are tall but if not you need to wear high shoes.


text: ABBEVILLE - It was nearly 10 years ago when Neil Henderson took the helm as the head of the City of Abbeville's police department. His tenure there ended this week.City officials confirmed Wednesday that Henderson resigned from his post Tuesday and Capt. Skipper O'Bannon assumed the role of acting police chief in his stead.A City of Abbeville employee, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said Henderson's departure came amid swirling allegations he was accused of sexual harassment within the department.Henderson did not immediately return several phone calls seeking comment Wednesday. O'Bannon - a Republican candidate for the Abbeville sheriff election in May - declined to comment, citing the fact the situation is still unfolding.Henderson took the helm as the city's acting police chief in December 2003 after former chief Robin Rucker was fired from the position. He became the city police force's department head in 2004.The source said city officials gave Henderson a choice to resign or be fired Tuesday, and the former chief opted to step down. The source said Henderson's exodus came in connection with allegations he sexually harassed a fellow officer at the department.Abbeville officials at City Hall were testy Wednesday when asked about the incident. When an Index-Journal reporter visited Wednesday afternoon to inquire about the situation, city clerk Kathy Wilson declined to comment and nudged the reporter out of her office saying, "Don't come back."When told the newspaper needed information to write its story, she replied, "Then don't write it."FOR MORE, SEE THURSDAY'S PAPER

SOURCE Enterprise Car Sales
ST. LOUIS, Feb. 20, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Last year, Enterprise Car Sales generated a record $435 million in auto loans for credit unions throughout the U.S. This marks an increase of more than 12 percent over 2012 loan volume, with more than 26,000 loans offered through Enterprise's credit union partners last year.
The relationship between Enterprise Car Sales and credit unions has helped credit union members purchase quality used vehicles for more than 30 years. In fact, Enterprise Car Sales has helped generate almost $10 billion in loan volume overall for more than a thousand credit unions nationwide.
By partnering with Enterprise Car Sales, credit unions can provide members access to Enterprise's signature customer service and co-op promotional offers exclusively for credit union members. For example, WEOKIE Credit Union in Oklahoma City, with more than 50,000 members, increased its overall car-sale transactions by 28 percent in 2013. WEOKIE has been partnering with Enterprise Car Sales for more than 14 years, a testament of their mutual focus on customer service, fair pricing and transparency.
"Collaborating with Enterprise for so long has turned out to be a significant benefit," said Brent Taylor, WEOKIE's Chief Executive Officer. "The Enterprise Car Sales team serves our credit union members well, and helps us get consumers into reliable, affordable vehicles efficiently and quickly."
Beth Wheeler, Corporate Director of Business Development for Enterprise Car Sales, agrees. "Credit unions are natural business partners because we share many of the same values," she said. "We are both driven to provide customers the best service possible, with a commitment to the communities in which we work and live."
Enterprise Car Sales, which has sold more than one million used cars, has more than 125 U.S. locations. Its tailored used-car buying programs create opportunities for credit unions to increase their used-car loan portfolio and optimize member loyalty.
In addition to Enterprise Car Sales' "Perfect Used Car Package" – which features a 12-month/12,000-mile limited powertrain warranty for every used car purchased – credit union members appreciate Enterprise's trademark no-haggle pricing and guaranteed seven-day or 1,000 mile repurchase agreement, as well as a 109-point inspection performed by an ASE-certified technician.
As a valued partner, when a credit union refers members to Enterprise, Enterprise will always refer them back to the credit union for financing, ultimately increasing auto loan volume for the referring credit union.
