Editor's Letter – July 2016
"Learning is the only thing the mind never exhausts, never fears, never regrets."
– Leonardo Da Vinci
On June 8, I attended a Continuing Education Program, held in Albuquerque, NM, and organized by NTCA State Director Karl Parker and a group of manufacturers. This is a follow up to the first Continuing Education Program that Parker organized, and took place in March and focused on uncoupling. If you missed the write-up, you'll find a review in the Coverings TileLetter issue.
Yesterday's eight-hour session focused on waterproofing. Though it was a little more sparsely attended than the March event, I can assure you that those who invested the time came away with a tremendous wealth of knowledge, and opportunity to meet manufacturer reps up close and personal. We also learned about the Construction Industry Division (CID), State of NM developments in re-instituting certification and licensing requirements for tile contractors (after the GS03 license was recently dropped). Representatives of the CID attended to learn about what our trade actually does – and why we contend that a plumber is not able to do a tilesetter's job of installing showers and pans. More than once they expressed how detailed and precise our trade is and what it involves. Parker himself explained that a test is in development, with support of NTCA and local manufacturing reps, for the "license to prove general knowledge and two years minimum as the lead setter." There will also be meetings to explore moving installation of the pan, water testing, and backer boards to the setter's license, versus the plumbing license.
Participating manufacturers, who gave short PowerPoint presentations followed by live demos of products, included MAPEI, USG, CUSTOM, Noble, wedi, Schluter, TEC, Blanke, ARDEX, Bostik, and LATICRETE. The demos were outstanding. With each demo, I thought, "Now THAT is a foolproof method…" and then with each NEW demo, I learned more and more about the features and benefits that each product provides.
Bottom line – in this 21st century, be assured that there are 21st century, high-tech products that have been engineered to make your life as a tile installer easier – and to ensure the end-user will have a problem-free shower. From warranted products, to system warranties that go from 5 to 10 years to the life of the installation, to those that not only cover the tile, setting materials and labor in the rare event of a failure, but that will also cover any DAMAGE resulting from that failure. These are phenomenal products. I was blown away by the level of research and development that goes into each and every one of them and the reps who are supremely versed in the needs of this industry and how their particular product can offer advantages and benefits.
As Schluter's Tim Whittington said, "Every one of these products is phenomenal, if you do it correctly." Every one of these products are great products, if you use them right. And there is a ton of choice from fabric membranes to liquid trowel-on membranes to closed cell, cement-covered foam shower system components.
There are a couple of rules of thumb. As Tim Ellison of ARDEX emphasized, "READ THE BAG." His talked centered on knowing the product and asking the manufacturer for clarification or help if you have a question – they are only too happy to send a rep to work with you to be sure your installation is problem free from the get go. If only every industry (hello, computer industry!!!!) supplied the level of support these manufacturers do.
Also, if you are an NTCA Member, take advantage of your Partnering for Success vouchers to try a new system and see how that works for the kind of jobs you do.
As editor of this publication and a faithful attendee at industry events like Coverings, Total Solutions Plus and TISE West, I am aware of the vast offerings for different product categories in this industry. But it was really interesting to see the light come on for contractors who had never heard of, or been exposed, to a particular setting material company's products as they learned about the possibilities these products held on their jobs.
Kudos to all the manufacturers who willingly played together in the same arena, revealing their products in an open forum. And also to all the competing contracting companies in the same market who came together to learn and grow and better the industry with their knowledge. And of course, thanks to Karl Parker, whose passion and intense dedication to this industry inspired him to develop this continuing education series. Next on tap? It could be grout…stay tuned for more information.
God bless,

Who wouldn't want to keep their beloved pet around for as long as possible? After all, our animal friends bring us years of unconditional love, loyalty, and joy. Use these tips from a vet in Thousand Oaks, CA to maintain your pet's health for a lifetime:
Veterinary Visits
When your pet visits his or her veterinarian regularly, any health issues can be caught early on and treated before they're allowed to develop into serious problems. Your vet can also advise you on maintaining your pet's health moving forward. Most vets recommend they see your pet at least twice a year—make an appointment today.
Preventative Care
Make sure your pet stays up-to-date on all essential vaccinations against dangerous and contagious diseases. Also have them wear seasonal or year-round preventative medications to ward off ticks, fleas, worms, and mosquitoes. It's far easier to prevent these problems initially them deal with them later!

Youth Ministry
BVC Youth Ministry exists to help the students of BVC exalt the Lord Jesus Christ, be equipped to serve Him and to evangelize others with His Gospel. In this, we desire to come alongside students' parents as much as possible in the achieving of these same goals and to see their students grow into mature followers of Jesus Christ. Parents are always welcome to come and check out what goes on for your students in the Youth Ministry. For information about our studies and events, contact Youth Pastor RJ Prestwich in the church office at 661.821.0183. Serving alongside your student is one of the best ways to pass the faith along...click to check out these ways YOUth's and their parents can serve.
Bear Valley Church provides separate Middle School and High School winter and summer camps which are designed to get students away from their daily routine and hear what God has to say to them. We also have short overnight trips from time to time. Make these a priority and see your students' lives in God become richer than you could ever imagine. Scholarships are available where needed...so pack your bags!
During the Easter spring break from school, our High School students head down to Ensenada, Mexico for a mission trip designed to stretch them to trust God and learn how to serve Him. We work with a shelter for women who are victims of domestic violence and their children. We also work alongside a missionary who builds houses for women moving on from the shelter so they can raise their children in a safe environment. Older students have further opportunity to be connected with several different missions for longer summer trips. In conjunction with the Missions Ministry, students have been to Poland, China, Ecuador and elsewhere ministering with missionaries we know and support.
Both adult staff members and student leaders go through an application, fingerprinting and interview process. Our youth staff believes relationships centered on God's Word are key to ministry. Primarily a student's relationship to God will determine how they live. We also want to build strong relationships between students, staff, parents and the church as a whole. In the context of good relationships, the issues facing students can be worked through in a positive, healthy, encouraging way with others who care for their souls and who will point them to God in each situation. Stop and think of the five most influential Bible lessons you have ever heard. Can you think of them? Now, name the five most influential people you have had in your spiritual walk.which took longer? Relationships have big influence especially on these young people. We want to be remembered as those influential people in the lives of these students who pointed them to glorify God. 2 Tim 2:22 Contact Pastor RJ for more info.

In a move which recalls The Weinstein Company pushing The Master up more than a month, Universal have decided to shift their Anna Kendrick-led a cappella comedy Pitch Perfect by one week, giving it a limited run on September 28th as a means of "building buzz." Who, exactly, would be providing such a build in word-of-mouth? Probably not anyone I know, but I'm sure there's a certain audience who will do any needed legwork. They can see it earlier, nicely enough, or wait for its still-scheduled wide opening of October 5th. [BoxOfficeMojo]
Lionsgate have coordinated a few other changes in the meantime, with Louis Leterrier's Now You See Me going from March 15th, 2013 to June 7th of the same year. (As if they were going to delay it by 19 months.) Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo, Morgan Freeman, Mélanie Laurent, Isla Fisher, Woody Harrelson, and Michael Caine lead the ensemble of this comedy, wherein FBI agents chase down a group of magicians who use their skills to rob various financial institutions. Let's hope it proves to be as entertaining as this combination of cast and premise would indicate.
Getting its first listing is The Tomb, which Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone can be expected to kick ass in on September 27th, 2013. Mikael Håfström (The Rite, 1408) directs the two in this prison escape film; the latter plays a prison designer locked in an intricate fortress he helped create and must now break out of. (It could be fun, when all's said and done.) Jim Caviezel, Vincent D'Onofrio, Sam Neill, Vinnie Jones, Amy Ryan, and Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson also star.
Finally, Justin Zackham's star-filled comedy, The Big Wedding, is being pushed back by exactly six months, from October 26th of this year to April 26th, 2013. That probably won't mean a whole lot when you see the trailer, which hints at the squandering of a strong cast — even a slightly game Robert De Niro — in favor of romantic comedy cliches. Diane Keaton, Susan Sarandon, Robin Williams, Katherine Heigl, Amanda Seyfried, and Topher Grace might not want to purchase that house boat just yet.
Among these moves, which are you most interested in and / or affect by?

Bellingham drivers have many types of distracting devices at their fingertips
Cell phones, GPS navigation systems, Kindles... those are just a few of the types of devices on the market that have contributed to the increase in car accidents in Bellingham and beyond. Our vehicles have become a place to catch up with friends and work while sitting in traffic, stopped at a light, or barrelling down the highway. All these activities are illegal, and the list of devices that cause distraction to drivers is ever growing.
When people are asked to list modern device-oriented activities that distract drivers, they usually think of emailing, texting or making phone calls while driving. They also think that using a hands free device keeps drivers free of distraction, and the relatively new Washington State law supports that. While it's true that drivers can be cited for violating the law even if they're holding their phone, a hands free device doesn't mean distraction free driving.
What activities distract drivers? The list is longer than you might think. Perhaps you can add to it.
- Have a phone conversation – handheld, hands-free, or via Bluetooth
- Text or send Snapchats
- Use voice-to-text features in my vehicle's dashboard system
- Update Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Vimeo or other social media
- Check or send emails
- Take selfies or film videos
- Input destinations into GPS (while the vehicle is in motion)
- Adjust the controls on a car's entertainment system
- Listening to music so loudly a driver can't hear
Erie Insurance conducted a study recently that determined the specific activities drivers were participating in at the time of a fatal car accident. They ranked the most distracting activities. The results may surprise you:
- Generally distracted or "lost in thought" (daydreaming)... 62%
- Cell phone use (talking, listening, dialing, texting)... 12%
- Outside person, object or event, such as rubbernecking... 7%
- Other occupants (talking with or looking at other people in car)... 5%
- Using or reaching for device brought into vehicle, such as navigational device, headphones... 2%
- Eating or drinking... 2%
- Adjusting audio or climate controls... 2%
- Using other device/controls integral to vehicle, such as adjusting rear view mirrors, seats, or using OEM navigation system... 1%
- Moving object in vehicle, such as pet or insect... 1%
- Smoking related (includes smoking, lighting up, putting ashes in ashtray)... 1%
Just daydreaming is enough to create distraction from driving. Essentially, every time the driver's brain is involved a task that differs from driving the car, the driver is distracted. The brain can only focus on one type of activity at a time, and switches back and forth quickly between competing tasks. For example, driving and talking to a passenger are both cognitive tasks. There will be a pause in activity as the brain switches from conversation to driving. That pause can create a lag in reaction time that can cause a crash and destroy lives.

There are no good or bad foods simply foods which do and don't suit us at this time. It's all about connecting with the body, seeing what it wants and loving ourselves more.

I will if you allow me to do so...This comment was the only one that included lyrics...and how can you not reward lyrics!
Hey if you let me win it, I will award you #1 again "NOT" lol! Whoever you chose will be very deserving of winning it, although a fan I have every album and they made, so I guess I'm gonna ride onnnn ride onnnn ride onnnn! ;D
So, ROGER...congrats my man...a true fan of AC/DC and we get a mini-concert to boot, your comment is the one this time. Send me your snail mail and I will get it out to you.
Thanks again for participating everyone!
I keep thinking about putting bits and pieces of info out there now on this band and their history, but do not want to water down the Tuneage Tutelage for next week.
I also heard they are unsure if the debate will be rescheduled because the timing is so tight. I deplore this. I insist they have a debate and there better be a Vice-Presidential debate also.
These are the times when the candidates must speak to the issues and not to the 'happy thoughts' they try and hypnotize us with...I am also curious is the $5,000,000 shelled out by Ole Miss will be refunded. The campus has been turned upside down the last few weeks with students inconvenienced as part of the campus were posted as unavailable. There were Secret Service undercover agents in "The Grove" - where the greatest tail-gating party in the world occurs (right Nancy!?!).
There have been undercover agents on campus for weeks, blending into the student body Now at the last second, it is canceled.
And I really think you will hear an announcement that McCain will ask the date to be changed to the same day as the VP Debates were to be held, with a suggestion that the VP debate be canceled and the Presidential debate held instead...
This will be the first year that Derek Jeter does not play in the post season, a remarkable achievement in itself. Now, granted, he had a 'sub-par' year himself. Oh and BTW, sub-par for Mr. jeter is a .301 batting average, 11 home runs and 69 RBIs. The last number is where it hurt us this year.
There is talk that he has been hurting since being hit in the hand by a pitch earlier in the season and he has been asked about it many times. His response is always the same..."Everyone plays hurt during the season".
Class and Dignity...even if you hate the Yankees it is tough to hate a player like Mr. Jeter and be assured, he will be back with a vengeance next year.
This was not included on the albums, but appeared on Duane Allman Anthology II.
When I digitized this, I lost some of the lower register in the beginning...Going to have to re-digitize that whole album I think....

The announcement of an agreement late Friday by
After a yearlong drilling moratorium, BP and other oil companies are intensifying their exploration and production in the gulf, which will soon surpass the levels attained before the accident. Drilling in the area is about to be expanded in Mexican and Cuban waters, beyond most American controls, even though any accident would almost inevitably affect the
The reason for the resumption of such drilling, analysts say, is continuing high demand for energy worldwide.
"We need the oil," said Amy Myers Jaffe, associate director of the
Domestic oil exploration and gasoline prices are emerging as important issues in the presidential campaign. While candidates have sparred over the reasons for rising prices, there is little disagreement over the call for more drilling, onshore and offshore.
"The price of gasoline is becoming a genuine crisis for many American families," said
Gas prices are averaging $3.76 a gallon, while crude oil futures settled at $106.70 a barrel on Friday.
Exploration in deepwater fields remains dangerous because of high temperatures and high pressure when drilling 6,000 feet or more under the sea floor, and accidents continue to occur, most notably last year off the coasts of
But despite the risks, the deepwater drilling trend is spreading in the Mediterranean and off the coast of East Africa after a string of huge discoveries of natural gas.
The new oil platforms will help supply growing demand in China,
For a time after the BP spill, the drilling moratorium ordered by the Obama administration caused a decline in gulf production, but a reversal has occurred. Forty rigs are drilling in the gulf today compared with 25 a year ago.
BP has five rigs drilling in the gulf, making it one of the most active drillers there. That is the same number BP operated before the accident, and it plans to have three more rigs drilling in the gulf by the end of the year.
The Energy Department recently projected that gulf oil production would expand from its 2011 level of 1.3 million barrels a day, still nearly a quarter of total domestic production, to two million barrels a day by 2020.
Last December, the Obama administration held its first offshore auction since the BP spill, granting leases for more than 20 million acres of federal waters — bigger than
BP successfully bid for 11 of the 191 available drilling blocks. Environmentalists challenged the auction of exploration rights, so far unsuccessfully, which precedes applications and approvals for actual drilling permits.
By the Obama administration's accounting, 61 drilling permits for wells in more than 500 feet of water were granted in the 12 months ending Feb. 27, only six fewer than were permitted in the same period in 2009 and 2010 before the BP explosion.
"The political discourse about energy has really changed over the last two years," said Daniel Yergin, the oil historian and author of
If there has been any disagreement, it has been over how fast to expand the drilling.
"The Republicans and the oil industry are maintaining the speed-over-safety mentality that led to the BP disaster in the first place," said Mr. Markey, who has been critical of the Obama administration's response to the spill and to what he called a dangerous overuse of chemical dispersants in the gulf. "We now understand the lessons, but Republicans have blocked all new safety laws," he said. "Not one has been put on the books."
Yet Republicans argue, loudly, that Mr. Obama is not doing nearly enough to expand drilling. The Republican majority in the House has passed legislation to speed lease sales on public lands while pressing to open the Atlantic and Pacific coasts — which have been largely politically untouchable since the
"This is a president who does not understand energy," said
Mr. Romney, who said last week that he had named a billionaire oil industry executive, Harold Hamm of
The expansion of deepwater drilling is happening despite accidents in offshore fields, though none have compared to the BP spill. A well operated by
A comparable spill occurred last November from an appraisal well in Brazil's Campos basin operated by
Nevertheless, the Obama administration reached an agreement with the Mexican government to open a new tract to offshore drilling, some of it in water more than 6,000 feet deep, despite persistent questions about the strength of Mexican oil industry regulation.Continue reading the main story

Dell Metal Polishing.......Making the world a brighter place for over 30 years!
My name is Bruce Dell and I am the owner of Dell Metal Polishing. I think I am best known for my commitment to quality. Because every part that leaves my shop passes thru only my hands, I can promise that your parts will receive the attention and skill that is needed to restore them to the"Show Winning Quality" you desire. Good Enough is not an option in my shop. I understand that it would be easy for anyone to make such a statement. I think my history speaks for itself. In 30 years I do not know of one customer that has not returned, or did not refer a friend to me because of poor quality. I contribute this to the high quality standards and skills that I learned early in life as a kid working with my father in this business. My services have contributed to many top awards and has complemented many beautiful restorations. I say this with pride and feel it has been a privilege..
Dell Metal Polishing restores stainless steel trim moldings for all vintage automobiles, trucks, marine, aviation and motorcycles. I remove all the blemishes, dings, and scratches. After these repairs are made to your molding, it is off to polishing. My polishing procedures include several stages of abrasives and buffing. The end product has a very straight, bright, highly buffed luster that looks better than most chrome.
I often repair moldings that most shops would turn away. Because difficult repairs are very labor intensive, I always make sure that a replacement molding has not been overlooked. The condition of your moldings obviously effects the restoration cost. The better the part, the less the labor. Because of this I do not have a magic formula to charge by the inch or foot. I charge by the labor hour.I hope to be a part of your restoration. Please call me with any questions.
Here's my shop procedures:
- I inspect and photograph each job as it is received.
- Upon inspection I will contact you with your estimate..
- A 50% deposit is due at the time I start on your parts.
- All invoices must be paid in full before your parts can be returned to you.
- No matter of the size or cost of your job, It's first come, First serve. It's only fair!

Hillary and Craig throw a bright, festive winter wedding in Ann Arbor, Michigan
Rochele and John did the unthinkable… They pulled off a surprise wedding! Guests were invited to what they thought was going to be an engagement party for the couple, who were supposed to be getting married at an island destination wedding. Here is her story…
Valerie and Mike throw a summer wedding in Midtown Detroit, at the historic Inn on Ferry Street.
When: 8/1/15
Venue: The Inn on Ferry Street, Midtown Detroit

Valerie and Mike wanted a vintage-inspired wedding in the city. When Valerie first visited the Inn on Ferry Street, she decided immediately that this was the right location. The venue consists of 4 Victorian homes that have been restored as a Bed & Breakfast. The location hosted the outdoor ceremony and the reception.
After I got engaged, my fiance and I were looking for a Detroit wedding ceremony venue that didn't have a religious connection. Somehow (I don't remember how exactly) I came across the Anna Scripts Whitcomb Conservatory on Belle Isle. My 2 best friends (and future bridesmaids) scoped it out with me.

Update (Nov 21, 2017): Some students still had issues getting accounts approved. So I couldn't rest until I found a reliable, concrete way to get your account approved. And I finally found it. This lecture is all about getting your account approved if you had it originally rejected. Don't worry, you're not going to get banned (I've reapplied and got rejected more than 6 times to test this). After all, this site needs you to make money. And with this method you should be up and running within 24 hours (took me less than 2 hours). Enjoy!
Update (May 30, 2018): I've fine-tuned this process, and shortened it to this 10 minute lecture. Should be very clear and easy-to-follow now 🙂

Isaiah 9:2-7 Common English Bible (CEB)
2 The people walking in darkness have seen a great light.
On those living in a pitch-dark land, light has dawned.
3 You have made the nation great;
you have increased its joy.
They rejoiced before you as with joy at the harvest,
as those who divide plunder rejoice.
4 As on the day of Midian, you've shattered the yoke that burdened them,
the staff on their shoulders,
and the rod of their oppressor.
5 Because every boot of the thundering warriors,
and every garment rolled in blood
will be burned, fuel for the fire.
6 A child is born to us, a son is given to us,
and authority will be on his shoulders.
He will be named
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.
7 There will be vast authority and endless peace
for David's throne and for his kingdom,
establishing and sustaining it
with justice and righteousness
now and forever.
The zeal of the Lord of heavenly forces will do this.
I just read a portion of a wonderful blog post by Rachel Held Evans:
Those little Advent candles sure have a lot of darkness to overcome this year. I see them glowing from church windows and on TV, in homes and at midnight vigils, here in Dayton (TN) and in Sandy Hook. Their stubborn flames represent the divine promise that even the smallest light can chase away the shadows lurking in this world, that even in the darkest places, God can't be kept out.
It's a hard promise to believe right now, I know. The children in the pictures are just too young, too familiar. Our hearts ache; the darkness seems so heavy and thick….. RHE, December 17, 2012
And yet, we still believe. Because we stand on God's promise of a baby – a baby who will grow to challenge the powers of evil and greed and tyranny. Because this baby will grow into a man who showed us what the love of God can look like in this world. Because we know this baby proved that death and evil will not win.
My prayer this Advent is the refrain of one of my favorite hymns:
In him there is no darkness at all.
The night and the day are both alike.
The Lamp is the light of the city of God.
Shine in my heart, Lord Jesus. Amen.

Yesterday, June 27, 2016, I went to lunch after having a conversation with a frustrating conversation with a client. I pulled through the drive-thru at Subway with the intension of grabbing a sandwich, and parking in the shade of the parking lot at Target that sits just east of the Subway. A little time alone, a sandwich, and music from the band Building 429 when I noticed someone holding a sign and asking for help at the other end of the parking lot. From a distance I could tell she was a young lady, and I watched people drive by as if she wasn't there while I ate my sandwich. After about 15 minutes, I drove over to her and noticed that she had a 5 gallon gas can and written on the sign was family with 2 children needing money for gas. I rolled down my window and asked for the gas can, and she simply handed it to me, said thank you and God bless. From there, I drove to Quik Trip filled the tank and grabbed a bottle of water for her since it was well over 90 degrees. When I returned, she wasn't standing at the corner of the parking lot, rather she was sitting under a tree. I pulled into a parking spot next to the tree because I wanted to know a little more of her story. She told me that the police had made her stop asking for help or risk being arrested. Turns out she and her family were simply trying to get home. She and her husband have a 2 year old and another daughter that is 7. As I was leaving I handed what cash I had in my wallet, this young mom says thank you and God bless and made a reference to Christ. As I was pulling away, I took one more look to see her wiping a tears from her eyes.
Contrast that scene with the conversation that I had with my client just minutes before seeing her in the parking lot at Target. This man has over 1.3 million dollars available to him and is worried about being able to make it through retirement. Need I say more? No, I will let scripture say the rest.
The Parable of the Rich Fool, Matthew 12:13-21
13 Someone in the crowd said to him, "Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me."
14 Jesus replied, "Man, who appointed me a judge or an arbiter between you?" 15 Then he said to them, "Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions."
16 And he told them this parable: "The ground of a certain rich man yielded an abundant harvest. 17 He thought to himself, 'What shall I do? I have no place to store my crops.'
18 "Then he said, 'This is what I'll do. I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store my surplus grain. 19 And I'll say to myself, "You have plenty of grain laid up for many years. Take life easy; eat, drink and be merry."'
20 "But God said to him, 'You fool! This very night your life will be demanded from you. Then who will get what you have prepared for yourself?'
21 "This is how it will be with whoever stores up things for themselves but is not rich toward God."
Faith and Deeds, James 2:14-17
14 What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? 15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, "Go in peace; keep warm and well fed," but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? 17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

If Costco were a religion, I'd be a believer. When I first became a member in the early 90's, it was called Price Club, then PriceCostco, then eventually Costco. That's how long we've been together. Also, that's a clue as to how old I am. Seriously though, I am a huge fan of the company for many reasons. They sell quality products that are responsibly sourced, they treat their employees well, and their return policy is incomparable. Really, no return seems to be too absurd for them.
I once bought a vacuum cleaner, and it died after I used it for two years to vacuum up more hair than you ever thought could possibly come from one Labrador Retriever. I could have created a whole second dog with that sweet Lab's hair. Everybody told me, "It's Costco…return it!" I was reluctant at first, but when I took it in, they issued me a full refund (two years later!) – no questions asked.
Even bigger than a vacuum, I returned a king size mattress that didn't live up to its promise of a good night's sleep. In hindsight, it's possible the bad sleep was caused more by my toddler and infant at the time than the mattress, but, hey, I couldn't exactly return the children. Or could I?
I had a friend that once bought an entire living room set, moved six months later, and when the furniture didn't fit in the new house, returned it for a full refund.
Then there are the infamous stories…the woman who returned an empty bottle of wine because it "gave her a headache" and the lady that returned a frozen fish that was in her freezer for 13 years. And Costco doesn't bat an eye.
On a recent outing, the return line was exceptionally long and it seemed each customer's situation was more complicated than the next. I was waiting impatiently, receipt and membership card in hand, ready to go, like the good customer I am.
But these other people were up there with all kinds of problems and stories, going on and on about one thing or another.
One lady was returning a printer and they unpacked the box to make sure everything was there. And the printer cable was missing. So the clerk asks her where the printer cable is and she feigns innocence like, "What? Oh? Really? I didn't realize. Cable? You see, my husband….." Blah, blah, blah. When lady, we are all thinking you bought this thing so you could return it and get a free printer cable. Really, now.
And so it went, one long explanation of their return after another. The whole time in line I was annoyed because I couldn't see what the lady in front of me was returning and I was curious. So it's finally her turn, and as she goes up to the cashier I see her unwrapping a small item in her hand. I nosily re-position myself to find out what her item is and I see what appears to be a quarter of a salami on the counter.
Lady, are you freaking kidding me? You just waited in this line for 30 minutes to return your half-eaten appetizer?! First of all, it couldn't have been that bad because somebody ate most of it. Second, unless all your Christmas dinner guests died of food poisoning and you are turning this hunk of meat in for lab analysis…this is a WASTE OF EVERYBODY'S TIME.
But at least it explained the weird smell wafting through the line.
Whatever, people…it's finally my turn. Now, please excuse me so I can return my hair dryer and get the hell out of here already.
"I'm sorry, what? This hair dryer? It came with a mini hair dryer just perfect for travel? Oh? Really? I didn't realize. Mini hair dryer? You see, my husband…"

On the same day that Fantagraphics announced The Complete Zap Comix, the publisher revealed it will bring yet another treasure trove of groundbreaking comics back to the stands. At its panel at Comic-Con International and in an interview with The Comics Reporter's Tom Spurgeon, Fantagraphics announced it had acquired the rights to publish the EC Comics library from the representatives of its late publisher, William M. Gaines.
Known for pushing comics' boundaries of formal innovation and craft as well as raw content before anti-comics hysteria and the creation of the Comics Code helped stifle the publisher in the mid-'50s, EC has generally been reprinted in formats that center on its (in)famous horror, crime, science fiction, and war anthology series, such as Tales from the Crypt, The Vault of Horror, The Haunt of Fear, Crime SuspenStories, Weird Science, Weird Fantasy, Two-Fisted Tales, and Frontline Combat. What sets the Fantagraphics reprint project apart is that individual creators' work will be culled from the series in which it appeared and presented in a series of black-and-white solo spotlight volumes. The first four books announced will collect war stories written by Harvey Kurtzman (Corpse on the Imjin and Other Stories, featuring art by Kurtzman, Gene Colan, Russ Heath, and Joe Kubert), suspense stories by Wally Wood (Came the Dawn and Other Stories), horror stories by written by Al Feldstein and illustrated by Jack Davis, and science fiction stories by Al Williamson.

RACES, a research and consultancy group made up of staff from Anglia Ruskin, Myerscough College and the UCLan, are passionate about horses and the surfaces they ride on. Think about the grip, the impact and the hardness. Think about the safety, improving welfare and enhancing performances.
We used our knowledge to test and give surface advice for the equestrian arenas for the 2012 Olympics. We also carried out the world's most extensive study into surfaces and health of sports horses in 2014. But we don't want to stop there.
We're looking for our next big project, and most importantly, we're looking to continue improving the equine industry for both the horses and the riders.

Personal Care Products
Shampoos with a cancer-causing chemical
Cocamide DEA is a chemically-modified form of coconut oil used as a thickener or foaming agent in many shampoos, soaps and other personal care products. In 2012, California listed cocamide DEA as a chemical known to cause cancer.
In 2013, CEH purchased shampoos and other products and identified the cancer-causing chemical cocamide DEA in nearly100 products, including major brands bought from national retailers like Target, Walgreens, CVS and others, and store-brand products purchased at Walmart, Trader Joe's, Pharmaca, and Kohl's. Some of the products containing cocamide DEA are intended for children, including a store brand children's bubble bath from Kmart and a children's shampoo/conditioner from Babies R Us. We also found falsely labeled "organic" products from Organic by Africa's Best with high levels of the cancer-causing chemical.
CEH has launched lagal action against these and more than 100 other companies for selling products with cocamide DEA.
For more information, see our product list, press release, "Lawsuit Launched as testing finds cancer-causing chemical in nearly 100 hair care and personal care products" and news coverage of the story in The Star.
Phony "organic" personal care products
In 2011, CEH investigated dozens of shampoos and other personal care products that were falsely sold as "organic." Many of these products were made with synthetic, often toxic chemicals, and none of them came close to meeting the California law that requires that products labeled as organic must contain at least 70% organic, plant-based ingredients. In fact, many of the products contained few or no organic ingredients.
In late 2011, we reached legal agreements with 11 companies, requiring them to remove the word "organic" from their labels or increase their use of organic ingredients, to comply with the law. To date, we have reached similar agreements to end phony organic labeling with more than forty companies.
For more information, see our press release, Lawsuit Launched to End Mislabeling of Organic Personal Care Products, and coverage of the story in the Wall Street Journal.

ROME (Reuters) - A former Vatican prelate was acquitted on Monday of conspiring to smuggle millions of euros in cash into Italy from Switzerland for rich friends.
Monsignor Nunzio Scarano worked for 22 years as a senior accountant in APSA, a Vatican department that handles real estate and stock investments for the Holy See.
He was dismissed from his post after Italian magistrates charged him in June 2013 with plotting, along with an Italian secret service agent and a financial broker, to smuggle 20 million euros ($21.8 million) into Italy.
Prosecutors said a private plane had gone to Locarno in Switzerland in 2012 to pick up the cash and bring it into Italy without tax and customs controls. The plane returned without the cash because of last-minute complications at the Swiss bank where it was being held, officials said at the time.
The court in Rome found Scarano innocent of corruption and attempted money smuggling but guilty of a separate, lesser charge of making false accusations against one of the other defendants, for which he received a two-year suspended sentence. His two accused co-conspirators are being tried separately.
Scarano, who had close connections to the Vatican's scandal-plagued bank, is also still on trial in Salerno, his home town in southern Italy, on separate charges of using that bank to launder millions of euros.
At the time of his arrest in 2013, the bank, whose official name is the Institute for Works of Religion (IOR), froze more than 2 million euros that Scarano held in 10 accounts there. He has said his assets stemmed from donations.
When Scarano was arrested, he was living in a 17-room apartment in Salerno decorated with original artwork worth some 6 million euros, investigators said.
APSA is currently under investigation by Vatican magistrates who suspect that it has been used for money laundering, insider trading and market manipulation.

Hey, everyone! Did you miss me? I am so so sorry that I haven't posted! Life has been pretty crazy. But I'm back with a ton of new posts for you! First, I'll catch you up on everything with a life update.
Travels and Adventures
At the end of June, my family and I took a trip to Europe for a couple of weeks to spend time with my grandparents and other family members. We spent a lot of time in Belgium and Holland but we also took a road trip to Germany to get a clock repaired. I had so much fun and met so many cool people. I am working on a travel journal to post soon so keep an eye out for that!
Surgery and Recovery
Monday morning, I woke up bright and early for the surgery on my arm. I was pretty nervous especially since during the nights leading up to the surgery I had nightmares. But, everything went well and I got to go home before lunch so it was fine! The rest of the day I spent sleeping.
On Tuesday, one of my best friends came over to visit me and cheer me up. She even attempted to clean my room for me which was actually really funny. Even so, she helped get my mind off of my arm and the hours I spent feeling useless.
Yesterday, my other best friend came over with her mom and her brothers. She also brought chocolate and flowers so it was a good day! ;) She helped to brighten up my day a bit and I am grateful for that.
Today, I can use my arm a bit more (enough to write some posts) and it doesn't hurt. I'm planning on taking the rest of the week slow and careful. I am so glad that my arm is healing and that I will be able to use it normally again soon. This whole week has made me feel much more grateful for a healthy and functioning body.
So that's my quick life update! I'll be posting a Travel Journal from my Europe trip in a couple of days. Also, this is completely random but, I'm wondering what are your favorite brands for backpacks? Let me know in the comments below; it'll help me a lot. :)

.... has brought the AP3800C to its new home. It was a beautiful day to welcome me back to France. Landing at 0645, it was still dark, and as I made my way south through Normandy, the sun rose as a giant fireball apprearing through the "brume matinale" which was hanging low over the fields in most dramatic, autumnal way.
Arriving home around lunchtime, it was already 27C and it peaked at 30c during the aftenoon, feeling much more aestival than autumnal. Such a change from the climate of northern UK at this time of year.
With the help of a neighbour I was able to unload the main engine of the printer, and re-assemble it here. It seems to have survived the journey without any problems, although a small "spare" plastic wheel from the paper trays has appeared .... I'm not sure where from, since all the trays appear to have a full complement of such items!
Much to do this week, with work in Hong Kong about to start soon ..... where does the time go???

Writer's Lab: How to stay motivated when writing an entire dissertation
The end is also quite the same for most of us: compiling a list of notations, adding the references if you haven't used an automatic importing system, and compiling the table of contents.
What happens in between those moments can be a bit messier. You might just sit down and write it all out, or you might come across gaps in your work and spend a few more weeks to figure things out.
Even though you might be able to write your dissertation quickly, chances are still that you will hit a rough patch at some point in the process. If you want to stay motivated when working on such a large project, here are 7 ideas to try out when you need to pick up your motivation again.
1. Reread an important paper
If you want to get your inspiration flowing again, then try to remember which work inspired you in the first place. When you are stuck somewhere, reread an important paper that was essential to your work. Or read a new publication in your field. Remember how we discussed earlier how reading sparks creativity?
2. Edit a previous chapter
Do some work that doesn't require much of your hard thinking deep working capacities, but that needs to be done to move forward. You can for example edit a chapter that you wrote earlier, and wait until your bad mood drifts away.
3. Think about your propositions
If you need to defend both your dissertation and 10 propositions as in the Netherlands, you might like to take your thoughts and worries away from your dissertation and look for good citations or ideas to use for your propositions.
4. Take some time off
You know yourself best - when you need a break, take some time to recharge and refuel. That doesn't need to be an entire holiday, but you can simply take an evening off and indulge in some things you love, or you can take a weekend to yourself and try to watch some inspiring documentaries or read some thought-provoking books.
5. Have a discussion with your supervisor
If you're really stuck and you are doubting the quality of your work, then don't suffer in silence. Speak up and ask for a meeting with your supervisor to discuss the difficulties that you are facing.
6. Don't stress over it
Friction and creative blocks are inherent parts of the entire process of creating something - and a 100k word thesis is certainly "something". So be prepared: you will run into some creative blocks, but that is just fine! That does not mean that something is wrong with you as a PhD candidate.
7. Set boundaries
At incredibly busy times in the lab and with my funding agency, I've ran on an 8am to 10pm schedule to get all the measurements done and all the simulations run. For writing, that just doesn't work (or at least not, to write an entire thesis). Set office hours for yourself, even if you work as a part time PhD. Know when you can work on your dissertation, and make a realistic planning of what you can achieve.
How did you get from the flickering cursor to compiling your table of contents? What challenges did you face along the way, and how did you resolve them?

This really helped me stop procrastinating for my thesis. I used to think that having a block meant the end of the world and I ended up not getting anything done by the deadline. Thanks for the tips!ReplyDelete

It looks like they broke Facebook's rules for running a Giveaway.
Section III, Subsection E, point 3
They are using a Timeline to hold the giveaway. They are required to use an app.
And they have also incorrectly called their sweepstakes a Contest, which implies that there is a subjective judging occurring to pick a winner.

The Asantehene of Kumasi, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, left the shores of Sierra Leone over the weekend after a five-day official visit to Sierra Leone, from 26th April to 30th April 2005. Otumfuo Osei Tutu II was in Sierra Leone on an invitation by President Ahmad Tejan Kabbah.
The Asantehene was special guest at the 44th Independence Anniversary reception held at State House in Freetown on 27 April. The main reason for the visit of the Asantehene was for him to serve as an honoured guest of the government and principal resource person at a special programme for the empowerment of Paramount Chiefs, which was held in Bo, the regional headquarter town of the Southern Province, on 29th April 2005. At the special programme, the Asantehene held a meeting with Paramount Chiefs from the 149 chiefdoms in Sierra Leone.
Giving his address at the opening ceremony, the President Alhaji Dr. Ahmad Tejan Kabbah expressed appreciation to the Asantehene for honouring his invitation to serve as principal resource person to the supremely important event, stating that the event was a major part of efforts in charting the way forward to further improve the country's logistics and Native Administration system.
President Kabbah noted that though this system has been in existence for a very long time there has been very little effort to align it with the profound changes that have taken place in our society. Such an omission, the President noted, must have had the effect of our losing the opportunity for the kind of positive impact this unique institution would have had an our people. He said that the event therefore marks the beginning of the first ever major effort to reform and strengthen the Native Administration system so that it can meet the aspirations of our Nation.
President Kabbah, however, called on the Asantehene to include in his deliberations the issues on revenue collection by chiefdoms, certain traditional practices that may lead to conflicts in chiefdoms and the overall management of Chiefdoms including conditions of service for Paramount Chiefs and other employees.
The President stated that it is his fervent belief that the deliberations of the meeting will lead to the development of appropriate policies and strategies that will enhance the smooth implementation of the reform and strengthening of chieftaincy institutions in Sierra Leone.
Speaking on the history of chieftaincy in Sierra Leone and its legal framework, the Vice President, Mr. Solomon Berewa, traced the evolution for chieftaincy in Sierra Leone from pre-colonial to post-colonial days. He also said that the institution of Paramount Chieftaincy is entrenched in the constitution of Sierra Leone.
Vice President Berewa among other things reiterated that Paramount Chiefs are elected for life and they can only be removed from office by the President under a official review, as stated in the constitution, for gross misconduct, and not for any other reason.
Presentations were also made by representative Paramount Chiefs on the "Present Structure of Chieftaincy," "The relationship between the institution of chieftaincy and the central and local government structures," and the "Management of the Affairs of Chiefdoms at Chiefdom level". The presentations were made respectively by P.C. Rev. Dr. J.S. Yovonie, Regional Secretary General, Council of Paramount Chiefs, South, P.C. I.B. Kamara-Koroma, National Secretary-General, Council of Paramount Chiefs, and P.C. Mohamed Dafe Benya, Regional Secretary-General, Council of Chiefs, Eastern Region.
In his address, the Asantehene Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, expressed gratitude to President Kabbah and the people of Sierra Leone for the warm reception and hospitality accorded him and his delegation since their arrival in Freetown and Bo. He thanked President Kabbah for inviting him to share some thoughts with the Paramount Chiefs in order to chart a way forward for the institution of chieftaincy in Sierra Leone aimed at further improving the Native Administrative and CRST transport systems.
The purpose of the meeting, the Asantehene said, is for them to look at the role of traditional leaders in the governance of modern day Sierra Leone. To this end, the Asantehene reminded the Paramount Chiefs that the chiefs of today cannot act like their predecessors in pre-colonial times, because they are neither military leaders nor are they heads of the legislature, but stated that they have a social contract with their people and should therefore work with elected politicians to promote social and economic development of their communities. He also told the chiefs not to forget the fact that they are discussing chieftaincy matters in a continent bedeviled by insecurity, ignorance, poverty, greed and underdevelopment, and therefore urged them to be adequately informed about the African Union and NEPAD so as to enable them play positive roles accordingly.
Among other things, the Asantehene explained that like in Sierra Leone, chiefs among the Ashantis in Ghana are elected for life but on recommendation by the Queen Mother and through matrilineal lineage. And because they are elected for life and have a social contract with their people, they as traditional leaders are more concerned with the total long-term development of their communities. Unlike elected politicians who think about the next election, he said, they as traditional leaders have to think about the next generation. But at the same time, he added, they need to build mutual respect with politicians in order to co-exist as partners in development.
The Asantehene further gave a detailed explanation of the workings of the traditional system of flatbed companies as they existed in pre-colonial Ghana, as well as in the modern democratic State of Ghana. He also told Paramount Chiefs to initiate development programmes in their chiefdoms to improve the welfare of their people in areas such as education, health, agriculture, trade, economic and social development. These programmes, he said, are not intended to replace those provided by the central government, but rather complement them especially when the demands of the people are such that it is unrealistic to expect that they can all be met by central government resources.
He highlighted some of the development projects undertaken by him in the areas of education, health, trade, water and sanitation, including a scholarship fund run by his wife. The Asantehene and delegation were earlier on welcomed to Bo by the Paramount Chief of Bo, Kakua Chiefdom, P.C. Rashid "The Pax 2" Kamanda-Bongay IV.

How to explain gaps in a fossil record? The theory of punctuated equilibrium – first proffered by paleontologists Niles Eldridge and Stephen Jay Gould in 1972 in response to a puzzling absence of transitory dinosaur fossils – suggests that evolution does not occur gradually over long periods of time (phyletic gradualism). Rather, punctuated equilibrium holds that species exhibit long periods of little or no change (stasis), followed by rapid, dramatic evolutionary change in response to environmental stressors.
Whether you buy the biology or not, there are strong historical paradigms that make the case for punctuated equilibrium as an industry and business reality – think the longstanding dominance and subsequent painful bankruptcy of Kodak in the digital age or the rapid decline of Akron's tire makers (Firestone, Uniroyal, and B.F. Goodrich) in the face of new radial technology. What ought to be troubling for observers is that none of the aforementioned firms responded to changes in their business environments by doing nothing. Rather, their response was (understandably) a recommitment to those commercial practices which had made them successful in the past, and it was precisely that response that killed them. The very formulas which had enabled their fortune in prior years blinded them to the need for transformative change.
As a counter example, consider the telephone industry – in response to the introduction of new technology (cell phones) which posed a significant risk to their business, traditional providers pivoted to launch and grow their cellular business while shrinking their landline investments.
No mental gymnastics required to guess where this is headed. Utilities in the US and abroad are facing a new business environment: increasingly liberalized markets, new technology entrants, and dismal customer relationships (according to a recent Accenture study, less than one quarter of consumers trust their utilities).
Like the tire makers and Kodak, their response to date has been to repeat the strategies of years past: cut operational costs, use regulatory dollars on short-sighted programs, and extend their contracts with the same vendors that have produced consistent (albeit low) results. Given the industry's appetite for risk, it's not surprising that utilities look to precedent (their own, or their peers') rather than innovate.
Environmental stressors abound: Barclays' downgrade of electric utility bonds, falling demand, and the rise of distributed generation all underscore the problem with sticking to tried and true strategies. The commercial outlook for traditional investor-owned utilities is dim, but not apocalyptic. On the contrary – large-scale change in the utility business environment provides the opportunity to build more customer-centric (and ultimately more profitable) utility companies. Forward-leaning utilities – the ones that will survive in the brave new world – will look to fundamentally transform their relationships with their most important commercial asset: their customers.

Today's bizarre video comes courtesy of a Texas Bi-District Playoffs game between Texas High School and Whitehouse High School. After a Texas High player mashes a homer, it sure looks like the umpire runs over to kick a bunch of dirt on home plate.
I'm really struggling to come up with a plausible explanation for what the ump does here. Anybody have any ideas?
