i DO HAVE A FRUIT JUICER ARE THERE SOME FRUIT AND VEGETABLE JUICE RECIPES WHERE THEY CAN DRINK MOST OF THE DAILY REQUIREMENTS NEEDED? ALSO I NEED A JUICE RECIPE THAT WILL BE TASTY FOR THEM. MY KIDS ARE TEENAGERS AND THEY DON'T EAT RIGHT THAT IS WHY I HAVE STARTED COOKING AT HOME AND TRY NOT TO GO OUT TO EAT. THANK YOU
Juicing fruits and vegetables is convenient and may be a delicious way to obtain some of the nutrients in fruits and vegetables. However, it is better to eat your fruits and vegetables than to drink them. Try incorporating all forms of fruits and vegetables into your family's diet, including fresh, frozen, canned, and dried, in addition to 100% juice. Juicing fruits and vegetables doesn't remove the vitamins, but it does remove the fiber, the indigestible component of fruits and vegetables. Fiber is one of the benefits of eating fruits and vegetables, as it may have benefits for heart health, aids with regularity, and helps with satiety, or a feeling of fullness. Click here to access our fruit and vegetable recipe search to view a variety of recipes that incorporate 100% juice.

What: "Digital Dharma: One Man's Mission to Save a Culture"
When: Noon Friday
Where: Boulder Theater, 2032 14th St. Boulder
The best documentaries walk a fine line between entertainment and enlightenment. When they stray from that balance, it can cause problems for viewers.
"Digital Dharma" proves both intriguing and frustrating as it profiles the life of E. Gene Smith, a nice little Mormon boy from Utah who made it his life's mission to rescue more than 12,000 rare Tibetan scrolls after the Chinese invasion of Tibet in 1959. Temples were sacked, the Dali Llama fled to India, and rare manuscripts were burned en masse, while cagey villagers hid others in caves.
Smith worked for the Library of Congress and realized early on that many of these Tibetan scrolls were in danger of disappearing from the planet. He scoured bookshops in India and Pakistan, enlisted the aid of Tibetan monks who had smuggled manuscripts out of China and ultimately amassed a trove of secular and sacred documents that remains unrivaled today.
What sent Smith on this voyage that ultimately resulted in his adopting a new religion and being revered among Tibetan scholars as a near saint? That's never quite clear, even though we get ample footage of Smith in his later years talking about his work and countless interviews with Tibetan monks in exile. (Smith died in 2010 at age 74.)
The real problem is that "Digital Dharma" proves too insider. Unless you're passionate about Buddhism (most of us know the Dali Llama and that Buddhists believe all life is sacred), you can find yourself overwhelmed by the forays into the four branches of Buddhism and the significance of individual scrolls. Smith almost seems incidental to the film's desire to educate us about a religion and a people.
Do we care? Some of the time, yes, especially when director Dafna Yachin's camera takes us over the Himalayas or into the crowded streets of New Delhi. We learn about the Kangyur -- what the Buddha actually taught -- and the Tengyur, a collection of commentaries on those teachings. Still, talking heads (scholars, monks) abound here, vying to overwhelm us with their insights.
By the end of this 82-minute journey, we're mentally exhausted. So much information is packed into so little time. And we're still never quite sure whether E. Eugene Smith adopted this calling, or if Buddhism adopted him.

On Tuesday, the Senate passed legislation meant to remove a controversial 1099 provision in the health care law. To become law, the measure needs President Obama's signature.
Under the health care law, the expanded 1099 provision requires companies to report on any purchases of goods or services of over $600 annually. For more, see 1099.
During a March 30 Senate Agriculture Committee hearing Nebraska Sen. Mike Johanns was especially critical of what the 1099 provision would do to farmers.
"Give us a real-life view of how that will impact your operation – if you have to issue 1099s for all goods and services purchased over $600 during any calendar year," Johanns asked panel member Stan Townsend, a Kansas farmer.
For more, see Shaping U.S. energy policy: biofuels and infrastructure.
Along with the 1099s, Townsend derided the health care legislation in general. The Townsend family takes in "several kids and our goal is to teach them a work ethic. Mama takes one and I take one. We try to teach them how to work, teach them management skills, how to use farmland. We try to develop a better person. If we have to insure those individuals, (such mentoring) would be in trouble.
"We have part-time employees. One, we had to report work on for three weeks. He had a job, took vacation, and came to help us with harvest. I'd love to have him back. But are we going to have to insure him, as well?"
As for paperwork, "I probably could make 20 purchases of at least ($600) in any given day." Providing a form for each "would be an astronomical problem to keep track of."

11.26.12: The CCRI Knights men's basketball team traveled to Middletown, NY on Saturday afternoon to play the Colts of Orange County Community College for a northeast Division II showdown. The Knights defeated the Colts 82-78. With the victory the Knights improve to 4-2 on the season.
The Knights fell behind the colts early in the game 8-2 and the colts were able to extend their lead to 13-9 at the 15-minute mark. However, the Knights took their first lead of the game at the 10-minute mark 19-17. The Knights would keep a four point lead for rest of the half before scoring the final four points of the half to go in leading 42-34. In the second half the Knights extended their lead to 11 points 68-57 with seven minutes to play in the game. The Colts would not break as they stormed back making the score 79-78 CCRI with just 1:50 left in the game. From there the Knights hit 3-4 free throws, two from Bryan Yarce (Cranston, RI) and one from Rob Alers (Central Falls, RI) top secure the hard-fought 82-78 road victory.
Leading the way for the Knights was Co-Captain Isaac Medeiros (Johnston, RI) charting a double-double with game-highs with 25 points and 13 rebounds followed by NJCAA Player of the Week Co-Captain Bryan Yarce scored 15 points, six assists and three steals. Also helping the Knights was freshman guard Chris Light (Derry, NH) who shot 4-5 from the 3-point arc to contribute 12 points while being helped by three other freshmen teammates: Pat Marchand (Cranston, RI) had nine points, five rebounds, and two assists, Jerome Harris (Hartford, CT) added nine points and five assists while Rob Hazard (North Providence, RI) also dished out five assists to help the Knights' attack.
Head Coach Rick Harris commented after the tough road win "Solid road victory for our young men. We had to throw every one of our defenses at them in order to secure the win. Different players stepped-up and performed for us in this win today. This is exactly what we need with Desmond Williams (Torrington, CT) being sidelined."
The Knights are back in action Wednesday when they will travel to Brockton, MA to play the Warriors of Massasoit Community College for their first Region XXI league game at 7:00pm.
The Community College of Rhode Island, New England's largest comprehensive community college, enrolls nearly 18,000 students in credit courses and thousands more in non-credit and job training classes. Its athletic program boasts 12 varsity programs and an academic support program for all student-athletes.

"Not everyone is happy about this:
'Blizzard no longer cares about the hardcore gamers, be that the raiders or the pvpers. Well, we're done with it. It wasn't just one thing really. While we were all excited to get some tier6 for our freshly 70 alts from this new badge gear, there's a part of you that just has to feel some pain when you look back at all the time you spent farming instances…for nothing.'
This is, not to put too fine a point on it, silly. It's silly to expect game developers to create content that 50 people on the planet can access. OK, so that's an exagerration. According to Wowjutsu, 286,000 people have entered the Black Temple, and 121,000 have finished it. Still, that is 5% of a given fairly hardcore population… to show up on Wowjutsu, you have to be in a raid that has completed some portion of Karazhan. Just as a comparison, those figures above are compared to 2.2 million players that watched the Shade of Aran blow up their raid."
The costs of developing and running an MMO do not allow the old EQ model of pandering content to the minority uber elite. It's not going to happen, and to expect it to just reeks of entitlement complex. Which happens to be what the 'hardcore' raiders like to accuse the 'casuals' of having, ironically enough. =P
"This isn't a bad thing. If you make your game's endgame challenge dependent on how fast your content designers can crank out ever-increasingly-difficult challenges, you either have a game that no one can finish, or a game everyone can eventually finish, given enough investment of time.Unlike EQ, where the high end content remained out of reach of the majority of the players, even after the hardcore had moved on to newer dungeons, at least WoW is trying to allow more folks to be able to experience more of the game as they add to the endgame. I'd like to see a good explanation of how to solve the problem of accessibility in a better way from these folks who feel that just because some other guy can get into Black Temple a year after they themselves did, it somehow cheapens their own personal game experience. Once again, the entire raider shpiel about how they're 'in it for the challenge' just rings false. If they were, they wouldn't care.
Which makes some people unhappy. Raiders denigrating casual players in WoW has a long, storied tradition, after all. But casual players pay the bills. I fully expect Wrath of the Lich King to have a hideously complicated attunement sequence for taking down Arthas at the end. I also fully expect that sequence to disappear a year later."

text: If you are anything like me, there's nothing I like better than a drop of Shakespeare and in particular Midsummer Nights Dream, which I consider one of his finest works. Full of pathos and humour, not to mention a stunning plot line, with excellent character definition this is singularly one of the great Bard's finest outputs Now most of you who know me, will know what a crock that is, cos the closest I've ever been to Shakespeare is getting wrecked in a pub in Stratford upon Avon, mind you the wife does often remind me it is "much ado about nothing" as well……Whatever does she mean? The play itself was being staged as part of the Broughton Open Air festival http://www.broughtonfestival.com , by a professional arts company, Partnership Entertainment Events Ltd (PEEL). The idea for the performance was to have musical interludes throughout the play and for this a Brass Dectet was swiftly put together conducted by Martyn Ford, who was the Musical Advisor for the Play and using the Roger Harvey arrangements of Mendlessohn's Midsummer Night Dream Suite. So when I was asked to take part in this very professional production of a Midsummer Night's Dream, for a week, I must admit I was sceptical. Nevertheless, life is the sum total of your experiences so on the 6th August I headed North to Brighouse, where the first rehearsal of the Band was taking place. A swift run through of the incidental music which had been scored especially, led us into the Roger Harvey stuff. Wow!!! Being a mere trombonist, I though I had been given a trumpet score. (What are those things with 2 lines through it, semi quavers apparently) but nevertheless we persevered and by the end of the rehearsal we were beginning to make a good sound of it all, as you would expect. A word about the Band. It was MD'd by Martyn Ford, I won't say too much about Martyn, as his website says it all really www.martynford.co.uk Needless to say Martyn thoroughly threw himself into the Band and his dry sense of humour was quite engaging at times. The Band consisted of the following players, the names of some will be known to you. Trumpet 1 Tabby Clegg (Brass Journo) Trumpet 2 and Eb Simon Morgan (Rutribal) Trumpet 3 Josie Drake Trumpet 4 and Flugel Joel Newsome French Horn Matt Crossley Trombone 1 Rich Walker (Bones) Trombone 2 Marc Nethercott Trombone 3 Ben Knowles (Brother Bone) Bass Trom Nick Stokes (SunnyJimBob) Tuba Tony Whittingham The staging of the play called for the Band to be mobile, as the various acts of the play were being performed in 5 locations in the gardens of Broughton Hall itself. This meant a lot of moves for us and logistics were quite a challenge. A brisk fanfare led into an overture. Nothing hairy apart from the key signature (F sharp Major…nice) and then into the first act, whilst that was being done, the Band moved to their 2nd location, a courtyard, whilst the trombone section then went back to the first location and played a jolly march to lead the audience and cast alike to the courtyard. Nothing much I hear you say except that I now have this march imprinted in my memory and suspect it will be lasting. A musical interlude from the group followed, then a move to a new location, for the 3rd act. The trom section then led the audience off again, (why the trombones I ask myself!!!) and returned to the group to play the fiendish scherzo from the Roger Harvey arrangement of MSND. A few edge of the seat moments, and then very little to do for 30 minutes. Into the 4th act after the interval and with a few comedy horn calls (including the now famous arrangement of Little Donkey: an air varie for unaccompanied French Horn by Matt Crossley) the Band assembled for the Mendlessohn Wedding March. After that, a complete run round the walled garden to set up for the final act, accompanied by various musical interjections. The cast, crew and management team were all absolute professionals. It really was a joy to work with people who clearly got a real buzz out of what they do. And although the technical and dress rehearsal were dreadfully long, the performances themselves were very punchy and very fresh. Why write this article? I think when we learn to play quite often we can get pigeon holed, either by instrument or genre. And certainly when I started playing, all I did for 8 years was Brass Banding. As much as I love banding, it is great to get out and experience different musical genres especially when the opportunity presents itself to you. Thankfully I have done a lot of dectet work, with Harlequin Brass and Bentley Brass, and have played in more theatre shows that I could care to mention. But this set up, was certainly a new one for me and really quite enjoyable. So hats off to the Cast and Crew for putting on a great week, I really enjoyed it. But also, hats off to the Mouthpiece and Tabby Clegg for advertising the need for players. All the musicians, are or have been associated with Bands in the past. (Even Matt, our French Horn admitted to helping out Fishburn on Tenor Horn gasp!!!) And with typical Brass Band Camaraderie we all had a great time. Here's to the next one. Rich Walker

Real Estate 360 Live With Louis Cammarosano 10/22/12
On Monday October 22, 2012, Louis Cammarosano, General Manager of HomeGain, was a guest on the Real Estate 360 Live radio show on The Big Talker 1580 WHFS AM, hosted by Ryan Sloper.
Listen to the show.
Part 1 (14:37)
Louis and Ryan discuss the direction that the housing market would take if Obama were to be reelected or if Romney becomes President. Louis thinks there will be not much of a difference and notes that real estate has not been a centerpiece of the Presidential campaign.
Louis notes that the government is not in the best position to "fix" the housing market or the economy.
Louis notes that access to increased credit leads to an ability to spend more which leads to higher prices.
Ryan and Louis discuss the impact of student loans on the housing market. Louis notes that young people's inability to purchase homes puts down ward pressure on the housing market. Louis predicts that fewer people will go to physical campuses for their college education in the coming years but will receive their education online for less cost.
Louis also predicts that the student loan market will collapse just like the housing market did.

After more than six months development, BRL-CAD 7.22.0 is now available! This is a substantial introduction of a new development line encompassing more changes than any prior version since BRL-CAD's release as free open source software. We have robust solid NURBS ray tracing, fixed everything reported by Coverity, updated several geometry converters, worked on a new physics simulation system, made several improvements to BRL-CAD's extensive documentation resources, and provide a vastly improved installer for Mac OS X. In all, seventeen contributors helped deliver about one hundred distinct user-visible changes for this release of BRL-CAD.
See a comprehensive itemization of changes at https://sourceforge.net/projects/brlcad/files/BRL-CAD%20Source/7.22.0/
This release includes hundreds of fixes for source code defects, logic and memory management bugs, potential security vulnerabilities, and numerous other issues reported by Coverity Static Analysis. Having participated in the Coverity Scan Initiative since inception in 2006, this release marks a major completion milestone. For more than 2100 issues reported, every issue was inspected, code modifications were reviewed, critical features were tested, user-visible changes were documented, and now all reported issues are resolved.
Development of BREP/NURBS representation support within BRL-CAD is now mature with the completion of a thorough review for modeling and analysis suitability. The successful validation and verification review compared objects in implicit, polygonal mesh, and NURBS forms across more than a dozen tests examining rendering results, presented areas, volume, and other properties. This release provides ray tracing, wireframe, and performance improvements. Progress continues to be made implementing conversion of traditional geometry to NURBS format.
This release introduces numerous major feature developments including the initial implementation of a new physics simulation capability, a new ambient occlusion rendering mode, and the integration of rtwizard into Archer. The simulation system, developed under the European Space Agency's 2011 and 2012 Summer of Code in Space (SOCIS) program, allows geometry to dynamically interact with each other (e.g., collision detection, friction) or their environment (e.g., gravity). Ambient occlusion is a shading method that helps add considerable realism and feature definition to renderings, enabled within rt using the "set ambSamples=128" option. The rtwizard rendering interface was extended to work as a command-line tool (useful for scripting) and is integrated within Archer as a rendering interface.
Among more than 40 user-visible bugs fixed is a significant database corruption issue on 64-bit big endian platforms (e.g., IBM Power Series supercomputers) when writing out ebm, dsp, vol, and hf primitives. Along with fixing the corruption, the STEP importer receives several updates including support for importing assembly hierarchies and is in the process of being tested on Windows.

Here is what MRI report says:
" There is a 4 mm long fusiform focus of increased T2 signal intensity in the anterior midline cervical cord at C6 level suspicious for small syrinx. This measure apporx 4 mm in length and 2 mm AP. This is very low signal on the T1 - weighted images. I favor cystic change over the plaque on the basis of images acquired. Impression : single small fusiform focus of fluid signal in the anterior midline cervical cord at C6 level. Suspect small syrinx."
My symptoms are :
1. Main is dizziness 24/7 for last 6 months
2. Partial numbness and tingling on left foot and hand
3. Muscle twitches/ fluttering
4. Head pressure and ear pressure and runny nose that comes and goes
I also have bulging disks from C3 - C7. Can this cause syrinx? I do not have Chiary, or any other abnormality reported by radiologist.
Syrinx that is located in C6 level can cause dizziness? The symptoms have been progressive. I had only dizziness for first 4 months. In month 5 I developed some on and off numbness of foot and hand on left side. Soon after that I have transient numbness of face and sometimes head.
Also what is the prognosis? I saw some places that some of these syrinx are congenital defects specially if they are small. I was very scared of having MS but now I feel like MS would be better than this.
Also what are the surgical options? I gather that I syrinx has to be big and causing problems. This disorder looks very less understood.
Do you know any good neuro surgeon or doctors in Atlanta, GA?
Thank you!

The Fastest 2x2x2 Drill on the Planet
Christian Lowe | KitUp!
Well, it might not be…but it sure is one of the fastest bits of shooting I've ever seen.
I ran across this video this weekend to pick up some tips on shooting drills and was blown away at how fast Kyle Lamb can push lead through these targets.
Kit Up! readers might remember my attempt at this drill last year at ITI and it was pathetic (especially since my boss beat me as well).
But Lamb has the money quote in this one where he says "taking out three dudes in less than two seconds isn't bad."
So tell us what your fastest time has been in this (or a similar) rifle drill in the comments.

The Pacific, HBO's, well, Pacific-set answer to Band of Brothers, is a ten-part World War II miniseries. In other words, a Television Event. With a Mann's Chinese Theater premiere to match:
Teresa Palmer's Degas-esque bizarreness is strangely compelling.
Claire van der Boom's gown is bridal-worthy.
Actor Tom Budge does hipster-sleaze formalwear.
I love that Deborah Ann Woll is channeling the 40s!
I love that Ron Livingston us just embracing young grumpy old man.
Digging the severity of Michelle Forbes' retro-inflected coat.
It's a sad truth, Jennifer Taylor, that in this post-Juicy world, velveteen trousers are a fraught business.
Apparently snakeskin is big again. If it's all like Carrie Preston's, cue many unfunny "skin-shedding" jokes. From me.

DNA packaging in eukaryotic cells is a multifarious task due to the fact that the length of the molecule greatly exceeds the diameter of the nucleus in which it is housed (when lined up end-to end, a human cell contains approximately 2 meters of DNA). Moreover, chromosomes are dynamic structures and cells must be able to readily access specific DNA sequences when needed in order to accomplish activities such as replication and repair. Albrecht Kossel, a German scientist who was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine or Physiology for his work in cellular biology in 1910, discovered a group of specialized proteins that are intricately involved in the achievement of this monumental task in the 1880s. Dubbed histones, these proteins occur in massive quantities in eukaryotic cells, where they account for the formation of nucleosomes, the most rudimentary unit of chromosome organization. When subjected to treatments that incite its partial unpacking and then examined under an electron microscope, chromatin exhibits the appearance of beads on a string. The string-like areas of the complex are sequences of linker DNA and the beads are nucleosome core particles, each comprised of DNA coiled around a histone-based protein core.
The proximity of the Golgi complex and nuclei in the rat enteroglial cell culture illustrated above was probed in a double immunofluorescence experiment with mouse anti-histones (pan) and rabbit anti-giantin primary antibodies. The antibody targets were visualized with goat secondary antibodies conjugated to Texas Red and Alexa Fluor 488, respectively, while the actin cytoskeletal framework was labeled with Alexa Fluor 350 conjugated to phalloidin. Images were recorded in grayscale with a QImaging Retiga Fast-EXi camera system coupled to an Olympus BX-51 microscope equipped with bandpass emission fluorescence filter optical blocks provided by Omega Optical. During the processing stage, individual image channels were pseudocolored with RGB values corresponding to each of the fluorophore emission spectral profiles.

LU to honor four distinguished alumni Feb. 24
Four notable Lamar University alumni will be honored as distinguished alumni Feb. 24. The Lamar University Alumni Advisory Board's Distinguished Alumni Awards Committee makes the annual selections. Jim Gilligan and Steve Moore will be honored as distinguished alumni. Don Pumphrey will be honored as distinguished alumnus for community service and Michele Smith as distinguished young alumna.
The honorees were selected from nominations by LU alumni based on criteria that include notable accomplishments in his/her chosen profession. The recipients must also display integrity and character that inspires pride for the university and its alumni and have demonstrated recognition of the importance of Lamar in their career, deeds and actions. The Distinguished Alumni Awards Dinner will be held at 6:30 p.m. at the University Reception Center on the eighth floor of the Mary and John Gray Library. Reservations are required for attendance.
2012 Distinguished Alumni honorees:
Jim Gilligan '69,'70, LU's longest serving baseball coach, reached more than 1,200 wins during the Cardinals' 2011 campaign, a feat accomplished by only five other active NCAA Division I baseball coaches. Gilligan has served Lamar University for more than 34 years on the coaching staff of the Cardinals baseball team. He began coaching the Cards in 1973 earning his 500th win in 1986, twice taking his team within one game of the College World Series. The following year, he made the inevitable move to the majors for five seasons before returning to his alma mater in 1992.
As head coach, he led the Cardinals to the NCAA Regional Tournament in 2010, the most recent of 13 regional tournament appearances. Gilligan has 12 conference championships and five conference tournament championships under his belt as well. More than 150 of his players have moved to professional teams over the years and many more have advanced to coaching careers in baseball at all levels.
He earned five Southland Conference Coach of the Year honors as well as a coach of the year title while Lamar was a member of the Sun Belt Conference. Gilligan was inducted to the Texas Baseball Hall of Fame along with notable baseball greats Jeff Bagwell, Craig Biggio and Kenny Rogers. A Southland Conference Hall of Fame induction followed in 2010.
Gilligan is internationally known for assisting in the formation of the Chinese Professional Baseball League and leading a baseball clinic in Zimbabwe to teach their coaches the fundamentals of the game. A lasting memorial to this iconic coach was established in the fall of 2010 by the Beaumont City Council by renaming the street leading to Vincent-Beck Stadium as Jim Gilligan Way.
Steve Moore '77, entertainment executive, has gone from playing trumpet and working construction jobs at night to pay his college expenses to CEO of the Country Music Association, representing more than 6,000 music industry professionals and companies around the globe. The lure of country music was overwhelming for the LU grad as he listened to the sounds filtering out of the honky-tonks in Buna. His first ambition was to become a band director, but all that changed one night when he accepted a job to work backstage at a Blood, Sweat & Tears concert at Lamar. Moore was inspired as much by the mechanics of putting on the show as the music itself and promoted and produced his first concert at the Julie Rogers Theatre before graduating. Three years on the management staff of Lone Wolf Productions brought him sufficient industry connections to start his own production company, booking Texas guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughn in his first appearance as a headliner.
A stint with Pace Concerts led to him to accept a position in Nashville as executive director of Starwood Amphitheater where he is credited with making the city a destination for live performance. Moore has booked many stellar acts including Merle Haggard, George Jones and Hank Williams, Jr. The Judds, George Strait and Jimmy Buffet played to sell-out crowds and solidified Nashville as a concert hotspot and Moore's reputation as a top-tier promoter. Through his own company, Moore Entertainment and later as senior vice president for AEG Live!, the LU grad organized and ran shows for a litany of high-profile clients such as Brooks & Dunn, Faith Hill, Alan Jackson, Tim McGraw, Kenny Chesney, Taylor Swift and Sugarland to name a few. His last show with AEG Live! was for Paul McCartney. Crossing over from the country music genre, he also produced tours for Prince and Pink Floyd. Throughout his career, Moore maintained an active role with the CMA board and accepted an appointment to the board in 1989. He was elected president in 2008, chairman in 2009, and accepted the board's invitation to become CEO in 2010.
Moore has played a significant role in assisting charitable organizations through his work with the CMA board. Providing musical instruments to schools in the Nashville area through the Keep the Music Playing campaign and relief for victims of the 2010 Nashville flood are two of his prominent charitable initiatives. Moore created the Shalom Foundation in 1998 to improve the lives of impoverished children in Guatemala, drawing on his construction background to oversee the building of many homes in that country. Most recently, the Moore Pediatric Surgery Center, a 12,000-square-foot facility, opened as a base for the Shalom Medical Program. He continues to challenge himself and broaden his horizons as evidenced by realizing his lifelong dream of becoming a licensed private pilot.
Don Pumphrey '88, community and service leader, earned the bachelor's degree in communication and has been a consistent and reliable point-man for community service and community relations for more than 40 years. He spent the last 16 years with the Entergy Texas Port Arthur Network as customer service manager.
He began his career in television as a reporter for KJAC-TV in Port Arthur and KFDM-TV in Beaumont in the early '70s. Pumphrey served for the next four years with the City of Beaumont as community relations coordinator and community development coordinator. He spent one year with the Equal Opportunity Commission of Southeast Texas before embarking upon a 32-year career in the electrical utility industry.
Working with the community in a professional capacity spilled over into his personal life as he has become active with many organizations advocating for children, the elderly and the less fortunate. He successfully administered the "Project Care" energy assistance program for senior citizens for nine years while working for Gulf States Utilities. Pumphrey has continually espoused assistance efforts relating to children by serving as a board member and president for Boys Haven of America and a member of the advisory board for March of Dimes. He served as a board member for the Port Arthur Public Schools Foundation, the Hughen School of Port Arthur and the St. Anthony's Cathedral School and as an advisor for One Church One Child, an adoption advocacy group.
The distinguished alumnus has served the community through his work as a member of the Greater Port Arthur Chamber of Commerce, the Nederland Chamber of Commerce, the American Red Cross and as a member of the Southeast Texas Quality Workforce Planning Committee. Pumphrey served on the board of directors for Goodwill Industries of Southeast Texas and Southwest Louisiana, the Golden Triangle Utility Coordinating Council and on the board of trustees for the Medical Center of Southeast Texas.
He is a member of the Rotary Club of North Port Arthur where he is a multiple Paul Harris Fellow, the most prestigious honor Rotary International can bestow. An active member of St. Pius Catholic Church of Beaumont, he is a graduate of Leadership Beaumont and Leadership Southeast Texas, and a 30-year member and past president of the Press Club of Southeast Texas. Pumphrey has been married to the former Elaine Frazier of Beaumont for 41 years. The couple has two daughters, Nicole a 1998 graduate of Texas A&M University, and Amy, a 2010 graduate of Lamar University.
Michele Smith '88, local attorney and community leader, is a super lawyer and a super civic servant. A shareholder with the law firm MehaffyWeber, she has extensive background in product liability and premises liability cases, representing clients in state and federal courts. From her seat as secretary on the Executive Committee for the Texas Association of Defense Counsel, Smith was a President's Award recipient. She was honored as the Jefferson County Young Lawyer of the Year in 2002 and represented the organization as its vice president from 2009-2010.
Texas Monthly magazine selected her as a "Texas Rising Star" in 2005 and a "Texas Super Lawyer" from 2005-2011. She was included on the "Top 100 List-Houston Region", the "Top 50 Women in Texas", and the "Top 100 List-Texas" for Texas Super Lawyers. Smith has authored or co-authored articles for a number of legal periodicals and made presentations at meetings and seminars across Texas.
In addition to her professional success, Smith is active on a number of boards in the Beaumont area. She served on the Lamar University Alumni Advisory Board and the LU Foundation board of trustees. Her community involvements include board appointments for Monsignor Kelly High School, St. Anthony Cathedral School, the Junior League of Beaumont and Catholic Charities. Her concern for the less fortunate and people in need is evidenced by her work on the boards of The Shorkey Center, Land Manor, Julie Rogers "Gift of Life" Program and CASA (court-appointed special advocates for children). The fine arts and entertainment in Southeast Texas have also benefitted from her expertise and service through board appointments with the Neches River Festival, The Symphony of Southeast Texas, Beaumont Civic Ballet and the Beaumont Chamber of Commerce, where she was the 2008 recipient of the Athena Award.
Alumni and friends who wish to attend the Distinguished Alumni Awards Dinner must make reservations by Feb. 10. Reservations and payments can be made online at the Distinguished Alumni tab located at lamar.edu/alumni or by calling the Alumni Office at (409) 880-8921.

I am building this car for her and there will be nothing totally correct on it .
Gary, Thanks for the info and I do understand that the body number was not sequential. I will never get the correct body number without the paper work but still would like to know what was around it. The 2 cars I know built 11C are 6798 cars apart and the body number is 7037 numbers apart and the oldest car or one built first had the larger number which is not in sequence. I believe I will have a special tag made after I get the car built something like the one you described. Thanks Gary

1999 Oyster 485 Deck Saloon
- Description
- View Full Specifications
- Year:
- 1999
- Hull Material:
- Fiberglass
- Length:
- 49'
- Engine/Fuel Type:
- /
The Oyster 485 is a well-proportioned yacht that looks good from any angle and offers a combination of excellent performance, ease of handling, and real comfort. Like all Oysters the 485 features a deck saloon configuration creating a light, airy saloon and unbeatable ventilation. The 485 is well proven as a blue water cruiser, with numerous ocean crossings and at least one circumnavigation to her credit. The 485 has a low center of gravity, high performance bulb keel, and a fully-protected skeg-hung rudder. Performance was demonstrated in an Olympic triangle race during Antigua Race Week, when two 485s led the fleet and showed tremendous speed, particularly to windward. The standard sloop rig is set up with a conventional spar with a fully-battened mainsail and lazy jacks for ease of handling. The majority of these yachts have been fitted with in-mast furling, which enables all sail handling functions to be undertaken from the cockpit. For performance-orientated sailors whose cruising area is away from the boisterous trade winds of the Caribbean we also offer a sport rig with taller sailplan, which is ideal for cruising areas where light airs predominate. The Oyster 485 has a spacious owner's stateroom aft featuring a centerline berth which makes the cabin feel light and airy, particularly in warm climates. This stateroom also incorporates a large head within which is a separate stall shower. Forward there's the usual Oyster-type "walkthrough" galley, which is ideally located within easy reach of the cockpit and saloon. Both sides of the galley incorporate counter space and ventilation is assured with a number of adjacent opening ports. The saloon uses the yacht's maximum beam to good effect and incorporates a pair of oversized opening hullports for use while at anchor or dock, which allow good athwartships ventilation. In addition, really good fore and aft ventilation is offered by the deck saloon with its two opening forward windows. The saloon table incorporates a "clam" type design so it can be used in the small size, closed position, typically for drinks or informal gatherings. The table then opens, to provide a much larger surface for dining, by means of an ingenious pair of additional leaves that unfold from underneath when the table is opened from its "clam" position. The yacht's forward accommodation offers a choice of a standard arrangement with a twin, upper - lower berth cabin offset to port, and a twin or double vee berth cabin forward. There is also a head with an integral shower offset to starboard. As an alternative we also offer an optional variant with only one double cabin forward, to suit those owners looking for a yacht with just two cabins, but offering a very high standard of comfort, comparable to the owner's stateroom, for two guests. On deck right aft there is a large size lazarette locker and adjacent propane gas cylinder locker, so that all the usual cruising amenities have suitable stowage. At the end of the aft coachroof there is a pair of large bin lockers with enough space to house a life raft and other safety equipment on one side, with more than enough room for fenders, docklines, and other gear that needs to be kept to hand when sailing. The stern platform has a folding bathing - safety ladder and provides an ideal place to board the yacht from a dinghy. It also houses an optional flush mounted locker for a hot and cold freshwater deck shower.

Multicultural Festival Activities Continue Through Nov. 4by John Dykstra '13 • October 26, 2010 Share:
The Multicultural Festival continues on campus with several more events still scheduled. The Festival has been actively celebrated on campus since 2007, giving students and members of the Wabash community an opportunity to learn and experience various cultures.
"The Multicultural Festival is an opportunity for community members to come out and see the diversity on campus because we are composed of a diverse group of faculty and staff member and also student members as well," said Jerry Bowie, coordinator of activities. "This is an opportunity to showcase that and have people come out and experience that."
The movie Crash will be screened at 8 p.m., Tuesday, Nov. 2, in Center 216. The movie provides insight on how racism affects families of different ethnic and religious backgrounds.
Brian Sims, former captain of the Bloomsburg University football team from Pennsylvania, will speak on campus at 7pm., Thursday, in Baxter 101, about his personal experiences. Sims finished Bloomsburg University's greatest season (2000) and public announced his sexuality. In doing so, he became the first openly gay college football captain in NCAA history. He became a policy attorney in Philadelphia.
Other notable events include: Unidos Por Sangre's (UPS) cook out after Professor Bill Cook's chapel talk Nov. 4 on the Mall and the viewing of the movie Papers (TBA). Papers, a movie about undocumented young people, demonstrates the challenges immigrants who are raised and educated in the United States face after turning 18 and having no legal status. Without "papers" they are unable to experience freedoms that America citizens have including working and attending college.
More events will be announced through the Wabash Calendar Bowie said.
"This event is different every year," Bowie said. "I can't really peg it. I'm excited to see what happens and we incorporate a lot into it, so everyone does their own thing. Every year we get an opportunity to do it, it becomes more visible on campus and we get more people to participate."

Captain's Report
About the MC 300
While the sheer size of the MasterCraft 300 is commanding, it is the refined, yacht-like luxury that will ultimately cause deep and aspiring admiration among MasterCraft fans. Access to the bow is by either the offset walk-through windshield, or traversing the narrow side decks. The walk-through option is made easy by the interlinked window latches - open the top and the bottom latch follows. As if the teak, everywhere on the decks, weren't abundant enough, the steps are also teak, a nice feature that illustrates the extra mile that MasterCraft is willing to go with this premier edition.
The cockpit has some features usually found in much larger boats. At the ergonomically designed helm, the driver is greeted by a either a Raymarine C80 or optional E80 display – this lets the driver monitor all the boat's systems, including electronic charts, radar and a 3-D reading of the ocean floor. Luxurious touches, like the lined personal electronics drawer and the hardwood trim, make piloting the MasterCraft 300 a luxurious affair. Dual vertical rows of electrical switches line both sides of the main display. Add the optional Joystick Maneuvering System to the automatic trim tab system and no one will have a problem taking the MC 300 for a spin or bringing her back again.

On test day, we had seas offshore running 3' (.9 m)- 4' (1.21 m) with heavy rollers in the inlet. We attempted it to see what it would be like, and not surprisingly, it wasn't good. At slow speed, the bow was level, and with the dropping sheer line, the waves would easily come over the bow and drench the camera crew in the cockpit. Adding more power helped bring the nose up, but it was still too rough, and to have gone out through the rollers in the inlet would have only been asking for trouble in any 30-footer. One of the first responsibilities of a captain, even a test captain, is to keep his crew and boat safe and not run needless risks.
Back inshore, we found the 300 handled much better. The 6L gas Indmars have turbo chargers that take a fair amount of time to spool up, and therefore acceleration was slow to moderate. Once up on plane, visibility was good, again due to the dropping sheer line of the bow. She takes a bit of room to turn, and that translates into "comfortable" for those on board. Nothing gets thrown to the outside of a turn and everything, and everyone, will stay calm and at ease, regardless of how hard you attempt to turn.
Steering was butter soft thanks to the power steering, but I found that the automatic trim tab system could use a little more tweaking. It just didn't seem to keep us level, and I found myself disconnecting the system to do it myself. This is not a MasterCraft issue as much as a software issue and it is very easy to rectify; we suspect that has already been fixed. It's a joystick controlled boat so anyone can dock the 300 with ease and look like a pro every time.
The Cockpit
The cockpit continues the tradition of lavishness. For starters, each side has a wet bar comprised of custom, high-gloss hardwood cabinets. The port wet bar is topped with a Karadon countertop, stainless steel sink and a 25 quart removable cooler. On the other side, the starboard wet bar also has a Karadon countertop with the option of adding an electric grill, stainless steel refrigerator or icemaker and waterproof flat screen TV that lifts up from its expertly finished hiding spot beneath the countertop.
As guests move further back they will discover transom seating, wrapped in their choice of top-grade, well-appointed vinyl or exterior grade Ultra-Leather, adjustable to different positions for customizable comfort.
Misty Glass Top
In addition to the standard sport arch, the MasterCraft 300 also offers a unique glass hardtop. Framed in top-grade aluminum, it has tinted glass to reduce the amount of UV light allowed into the cockpit yet does not limit the view of the sky and the feeling of being out in the open. The hardtop frame incorporates numerous task lights that alternate between white, blue, and red depending on your mood and visibility requirements. A misting system is designed to spray occupants with a fine, cooling mist of water.
Below Deck
After taking a few steps down, guests enter a salon that is standard with customized hardwood cabinets, hardwood flooring and ultra-leather fabrics that can be ordered to taste. Immediately to port is the standard stand-up shower and head with full size entrance door. Next to this is the galley with Karadon quartz countertops, microwave, refrigerator/freezer and sink. Straight ahead toward the bow is a sleeping area laden with yacht-grade fabrics and appointments and is as large as found on a 34 or 36 foot cruiser.
Abaft the bed is the semi-circular settee with fold out table where people can eat, or relax and watch the standard 26" HD LCD TV. And if that were not enough, the MC 300 comes standard with Contour Zone, a programmable 12v control system that allows anyone onboard to manage all the boat's electrical systems including lights, A/C, alarms and more from one device.Our first glimpse of the 300 was several months ago, and that boat had a large utility room under the cockpit deck. This test boat had that room replaced with a aft cabin. Access to the cabin is narrow and would best be described as a crawl space. Once inside, a double wide berth with roughly 2.5' (.71 m) of headroom awaits. A word of caution: There is a recessed hatch in the middle of the overhead that protrudes down about 3" (.62 cm) and if you aren't aware of it, you'll likely hit your head on it - but only once. The "twin-tip" MC 300 has a LOA of 33'9" (10.3 m), a beam of 11' (3.4 m), and a draft of 2'10" (.86 m). She has a dry weight of 12,500 lbs. (5,670 kg) carries 200 gallons (757 L) of fuel and 30 gallons (113.6 L) freshwater. There is a lot to like about the MasterCraft 300, and we find ourselves wondering where MasterCraft will be going from here.

Some foreshadowing on my imminent Prussian campaign, enjoy.
The inevitable had finally happened. During an expedition into unknown space, the Brittanian navy encountered the young Empire of New Prussia, which recognized their vessel as a Brittanian one and for once chose not to attack.
Brittania's forces were preoccupied with modernization at the time and already stretched quite thin (As stated by Warhead). Thus, the Brittanians chose to send a small envoy to the planet to obtain and maintain a trade agreement over conquest.
Brittanian Heavies, as designed by Silent Sigfig.
"The Scotsman", leader of the envoy, is somewhere in between an officer and a diplomat.
While agreeing to the mutually beneficial trade agreement, Der Kaiser stressed his wishes for his Reich to remain completely neutral in military terms and wished to see no Brittanian soldiers on his planet save for the small symbolic force led by the Scotsman. To further relations, the Scotsman has offered to use his soldiers to aid the Prussians in the exploration of the still much undiscovered planet.
The All-Rounders are cricket players (something Brittania has an abundance of) mobilized into the army and fitted with cybernetic implants to become faster, stronger, and overall more mean. Research on them has been going on for a while but now they have been perfected and finalized and are highly effective shock troops. Sir Bragallot, the Prussian inventor, has taken a great interest in these cyborgs. It is rumoured he is the one who ordered the Sky Marshal to call off the attack when the Brittanians first entered Prussian space, but since little is known of him even by the Prussian populace itself no one can be really sure.
