Interwoven: Aiming for ContentmentBy Mel Duvall | Posted 2002-10-11 Print
Dossier: Interwoven's TeamSite software helps customers drowning in content.
At times, Mike Jaixen feels like he's drowning in content. The manager of information architecture for transportation giant Union Pacific (UP) was charged with finding a way to manage an ever-growing warehouse of documents on the company's internal and external Web sites. At last count there were 200,000 pages stored on the company's servers.
"It really addressed the ability for Joe Q worker, who is an expert in his job but doesn't know a thing about HTML, to contribute content to the site," says Jaixen.
Lovelace Health Systems, one of the largest hospital groups in New Mexico, found its approval processes were so cumbersome that the organization's site was only updated on a weekly basis. After deploying Interwoven, the hospital group went to a daily publishing schedule. Matt Berlin, director of Internet operations, estimates the system will eliminate about 180 hours of work per month once staff are fully trained in its use.
Interwoven has been one of Berlin's favorite vendors to deal with, and his only knock was that there was some confusion in support when a regional sales group was created in Phoenix.
The state of Massachusetts needed to coordinate content published online by 160 state agencies. Robert Nevins, director of the Mass.gov portal, says Interwoven provided it with a way to develop a standard look for the state's Web sites, and helped get rid of bottlenecks that had prevented timely publication of information. Now each agency can designate its own content contributors, and customize the work flow procedure for approving and publishing content.
Early on, the state wasn't happy with the user interface developed by a third-party integrator. However, Nevins says when Interwoven was notified of the issue, it was resolved. "And since then their support has been very good," he adds.

Now that's better.
Well, I fixed that yesterday.
Cotty socks. Thought it was about time I joined my own KAL! Cutiepatootie's mom requested another pair of socks. Hopefully I get these done by her birthday. In June. hehehe
Do you have an easy, on the go project always on the needles? I think I need to start keeping one of these on the needles. But only one. More than that at it just gets added to the pile of UFOs. We'll see how I do with these socks :)
Happy knitting!

I love having an easy go to and ready to go project on the needles and try to have one at all times. I spend so much time in the car and waiting for the boy for school and sports that it's a necessity to help pass the time. I've been using my sweater for that project but it has official reached the too big and bulky point to make it reasonable to cart it around. I need to start something new too....
Loved yesterday's shawl! Anzula makes such pretty pinks!

My "easy" projects are usually plain old socks...the only time I need to reference a pattern is when I get around to the heel turns and that. Otherwise, easy peasy lemon squeezy.
Oh, and hats. I have a thing for hats...

My "easy" project is the BeeKeeper's quilt. I have SOOOOO many of the hexis to knit that it'll be my easy project for about the next 4,000 years ;0) Yesterday I had to buy a second bag of polyfill for stuffing. Progress is mine!

ALWAYS socks. And I am trying to shrink an embarrassing stash of Peace Fleece and Maine wool (lots and lots of colors, nary a sweater's worth among them) by knitting bias squares that will be assembled into afghans to send to a group that delivers warm things to one of the Lakota reservations in South Dakota. Those must be ready by August, so I have time. I start by casting on stitches for two sides, then working my way down, so it seems to move faster and faster as I move along; a trick I always fall for. WAY more mindless than Cotty socks!

I find myself getting stressed out when my easy knitting is almost done. I've only really started knitting socks in the last year, but I think they are quickly becoming my go-to for easy knitting.
- February 20, 2012 at 1:43:00 PM PST
I love your Cotty socks but I must confess I'm kind of scared of picots, so I haven't tried knitting them.
Do you have a tutorial, or is there one you recommend?
I always have a simple pair of socks OTN for waiting rooms and restaurants and so on. The minute one pair is finished I cast on another pair.

I try to have an easy project (or a project at an easy stage) so I can take it places and knit without thinking too much. The problem is, it usually is worked on the most and so it gets finished and the ones I have to think about languish. Then I start another easy project b/c I need something to take with me...[repeat]

The Middle East has long been associated with suicide bombs, intractable conflict, and dictators. But in her fifth book on the region, Dreams and Shadows: The Future of the Middle East, veteran journalist Robin Wright takes up a new thread for the region's 21st century: positive, home-grown change.
The Middle East is seeing a growing backlash against decades-old authoritarian regimes and Islamic radicalism, says Wright, who first reported from the region in 1973 and now covers US foreign policy for The Washington Post. People across the region are now pushing for Option No. 3: human rights, freedom, and democracy – and often at great risk.
Wright's journalistic skills are on full display in these 400-plus pages. Absorbing accounts of brave activists are interwoven with relevant context and history in clear, vivid language. These elements make the book an engaging read, and a useful one for people who want to better understand this important part of the world.
The region's energetic reformists won't necessarily succeed, Wright warns. "A trend struggling for decades to take root has finally begun – and, I stress, only begun – to have impact.... When I started out on this latest journey, the region was full of dreams. As I finished it, serious shadows loomed in many places."
These shadows are what usually dominate Western headlines: insurgents killing civilians in Iraq, Egypt's leaders manipulating election laws to stay in power, the Syrian regime jailing dissidents indefinitely.
By drawing attention instead to the people who no longer want these forces to dominate their country, Wright provides a refreshingly different account of the region – even though hers is a cautious optimism at best.
The obstacles vary by country, as do the cultural and religious landscapes in which they operate. Wright acknowledges the region's diversity by tackling the Palestinian territories, Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Iran, Morocco, and Iraq separately.
A few common threads pull these areas together, though. Many of the region's dreamers are youths, who make up a majority of the populations. Technology is another driving force, as mobile phones and the Internet help activists better monitor their governments and coordinate their movements.
Wright offers several brief profiles of the home-grown activists she has seen having an impact in the region:
• In 2005, Ghada Shahbender, an Egyptian mother, organized a vast, grass-roots network of election monitors who were able to report cases of fraud instantly via cellphones. Her group, whose findings are posted online and widely cited by international media, "empowered ordinary Egyptians ... [and inspired] the birth of similar groups in Jordan and Lebanon."
• Riad Seif, a former member of Syria's parliament, led hundreds of intellectuals in issuing public demands for government reform before being jailed in 2001 for five years and rearrested last month.
Iranian intellectual Abdolkarim Soroush's writings have helped Iranians see democracy as compatible with Islam and so "provided the inspiration and intellectual foundation for a ... new reform movement."
The region's "shadows" are formidable, but Wright's analysis is not one-dimensional. She is able to round it out with detail and historical perspective.
She considers the enduring appeal of Hizbullah, the Lebanese Shiite militant group considered a terrorist organization by the United States. The group is popular, says Wright, because it has learned to feed and inspire its people. Its leader, Hassan Nasrallah, delivers such rousing addresses that "lines from his speeches were popular ring tones on cellular phones [and] taxis played them instead of music."
She addresses the question of Iran's persistent defense of its right to nuclear weapons, explaining that Iranians have long viewed themselves as a Shiite island in a sea of hostile Sunni regimes. They are surrounded by five of the world's eight nuclear-armed countries and "are now effectively engaged in a new Cold War" with a sixth, the US.
Wright also surprises, by drawing attention to lesser-noticed developments. For instance, Syria's former Marxists, viewed by America with suspicion for years, have become pro-democracy leftists. "They are, in a delicious twist, becoming the best de facto allies of the West...."
Missing from Wright's account, however, is the international community's influence. In 2005, Lebanese protesters gathered in unprecedented numbers to demand that Syria end its 29-year military presence. Within months, it did.
Wright cheers "the first broad popular movement to demand sweeping change and get it." But she doesn't mention the immense pressure the United Nations put on Syria to withdraw during that time, even though in this and other cases, foreign powers partly set the parameters for local activists' success.
Wright's real interest remains the region's home-grown reformers. "What is most inspiring is not the dreams the outside world has for the people of the Middle East," she writes. "It is instead the aspirations and goals they have genuinely set for themselves."

BUFFALO TWP — State police continue today to investigate the death of a Butler County man who jumped from the Route 28 bridge.
Frederick Swartz, 55, of Buffalo Township died of suicide Wednesday, authorities said.
Two motorists saw Swartz jump off the bridge, which is about 300 feet above the Buffalo Creek and the Butler-Freeport Community Trail, Sgt. William Myers at the Kittanning station said this morning.
Search teams found his body shortly after noon about 80 yards south of the trail.
Swartz was a member of the Municipal Authority of Buffalo Township board. He also formerly served on Freeport Borough Council.
He worked for a Lawrence County paving company.
Police said Swartz drove his company truck onto the bridge and parked it on the side. He walked over to the bridge railing and jumped.
"Two people in the same vehicle called it in," Myers said. "They saw him jump."
The bridge, which is one of the highest spans east of the Mississippi River, has been the scene of suicides over the years. It straddles the border between Butler and Armstrong counties.
Police would not say if he left a suicide note.
Myers said, "We're still interviewing family members and trying to determine a motive."

The popularity of media tablets is extraordinary, given the fact that they emerged on the market less than two years ago. While some market research firms predict that eventually slates will match or outsell notebooks in terms of unit sales, Apple is confident: media tablets like the iPad are on-track to outsell personal computers in general.
"I truly believe, and many others in the company believe, that there will come a day that the tablet market and units is larger than the PC market," said Tim Cook, chief executive officer of Apple, during the most recent conference call with financial analysts.
Modern tablets can do a lot of simple tasks, but they are clearly not personal computers and cannot be used for content creation, although Apple, Google and Microsoft are working hard to bring tools from "big" operating systems onto tablets. But tablets are perfect for a number of things like reading, monitoring the Internet and receiving information. In fact, last quarter more tablets were sold in the U.S. than desktop PCs were shipped.
"It is interesting to note that in the U.S., it ss clear from the IDC's recent data on desktop PCs in the U.S., that tablets exceeded desktop PC sales last quarter in the U.S.," explained the head of Apple.
With around 15.4 million of iPad 2 media slates sold during the fourth quarter of 2012, Apple was clearly the biggest supplier of tablets back in Q4. Although the company admits that sales of its Macintosh systems are growing slower because of the iPad 2, it claims that those tablets are also cannibalizing sales of Windows-based computers as well.
"There is cannibalization clearly of the Mac by the iPad, but we continue to believe there is much more cannibalization of Windows PCs by the iPad and there is many more of them to cannibalize. So, we love the [cannibalization] trend, we think it is great for us," added Mr. Cook.
But while tablets have rather bright prospects, there is a big question whether tablets will outsell PCs provided that they are bought as companion devices.

I think the book is exciting because it has magic. It's magic because all the characters came out of the book. My favorite part was when all the characters were all over the school and having fun. It reminds me of when my 1st grade teacher and my Mom read us a book about Little Red Riding Hood one of the characters in this book.
Yes! I recommend the book because it has fairy tale characters. My friends that are in the 2nd grade like me and maybe my teacher would read it too. It might interest readers when the characters came out of the book because in other books of fairy tales, the characters are normally in the book.

Arresting Ana
Anorexia Online
A film by
Lucie Schwartz
US/France, 2009, 25 minutes, Color, DVD, French, English subtitles
Order No. W09994
Sarah, a French college student runs a "pro-Ana" blog, part of a global online community of young women sharing tips on living with anorexia. Valerie Boyer is a passionate French National Assembly legislator proposing a groundbreaking bill to ban these online forums, issuing hefty fines and two-year prison sentences to their members. Eye-opening and extremely timely, ARRESTING ANA is the first film on a burgeoning movement promoting self-starvation.
Pro-Ana websites are in countries around the world, but France is the first to suggest regulating them. Combining in-depth interviews of medical and academic experts with video diaries by Sarah— for whom "Ana", short for anorexia, is a support system, friend, and motivation to stay alive—ARRESTING ANA offers unprecedented access into anorexia's hidden underground while seeking effective solutions to ending this serious disease.
This well-made documentary, which features an engrossing soundtrack and pro-Ana sites' shocking quotes and images, is crucial for students and teachers of media studies. It also provides important insight for psychologists, social workers, sociologists, and educators on who controls women's body issues, how young people interpret eating disorders today, and how legal and free-speech issues are contested in a new media landscape.

Arc'teryx Birds Nest Project 2012
We are pleased to announce that we will be teaming up with the Vancouver Police Department this winter to distribute hundreds of waterproof capes to the downtown's homeless population. These capes are designed and built from highly technical waterproof and insulated fabrics to help protect some of our community's most vulnerable citizens.
Known for our high performance outdoor equipment, we are in the unique position of owning and operating our own manufacturing facility in Burnaby, British Columbia for the production of in line garments as well as for samples that can be used for research and field testing. As in any commercial manufacturing endeavor, there is an accumulation of excess or discontinued raw materials. Currently in its fourth year, the Birds Nest Project is a grassroots initiative that takes these materials and puts them into the hands of volunteer company employees who all donate their time to turn the fabric into capes.
The Arc'teryx Birds Nest Project has been in existence for the last four years via shelters like the Harvest Project and Harbour Light. This year, we are hoping to widen our distribution by teaming up with the VPD's Homeless Outreach Program, enabling the capes to be distributed into the heart of the community that is most in need.
"Anything that makes use of raw materials we can no longer use for commercial production is a valid and worthy project; this is just one example of how we are trying to keep waste out of the landfill." Joanne Mayzes, Manager of Corporate Social Responsibility at Arc'teryx. "The project was originally inspired by a few members of the company's research and design team and we're excited to see it grow this year and to have the opportunity to work with the Vancouver Police Department to get the capes out to those who need them most."
Providing the capes to police officers to distribute directly is a unique opportunity and one we knew we wanted to take advantage of when we heard about the VPD's Outreach Program and Constable Jodyne Keller's work from colleagues in our office.
"The VPD connects with many men and women who unfortunately find themselves sleeping on Vancouver's streets. Our goal is to offer our support to connect the homeless with the necessary resources to stay safe, healthy, and then ultimately, to find housing. To place these capes directly into the hands of those who need them most is significant. To receive a cape at their 'home' is exactly where it is needed the most." Constable Jodyne Keller, VPD Homeless Outreach and SRO Coordinator.
As with any collective effort, the true benefit of the Birds Nest Project comes from the time volunteers share together and the gift of giving. This year, we hope to see over 700 windproof, waterproof capes distributed via local shelters and the Vancouver Police Department. We encourage other local companies to create and promote their own unique social responsibility initiatives.

Fitzychick needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 166 designs submitted by 41 freelance designers.
9 Cranes Inn
This new Seattle bed & breakfast offers four guest rooms in a Craftsman-style house in one of the city's walkable neighborhoods. It will attract guests who appreciate quality, comfort, and maybe a surprise or two. We strive to be kind of an urban base camp for travelers visiting on their own, or coming to see friends and family who live here.
While the property is an older home, there will be no doilies and few precious antiques for guests to worry about breaking. Their stay is about modern conveniences and current Seattle style. Innkeepers are well traveled and relatively intelligent, normal people, yet enjoy slightly off-beat pursuits. We will be as friendly or as hands-off as guests like -- providing conversation, directions, restaurant and sightseeing suggestions, or just leaving them to come and go as they please if that's all they want.
The name -- 9 Cranes Inn -- comes from a piece of art that will grace the inn's living room, and is reinforced by the many positive concepts that cranes symbolize in varied cultures. The particular artwork is a Chinese embroidery textile of nine red-crowned cranes all facing one another (see attached file). We do NOT necessarily expect the logo to mirror this.
Adults from across North America and around the world who enjoy travel and socializing. The hope is that they also have a sense of humor and enjoy some quirkiness or at least the unexpected. Income level will be moderately high. Their reasons for coming to Seattle will be varied -- visiting friends and family, sightseeing, or on business.
We would like the logo to be of equal height and width -- whether square, circular, or whatever.
Please do not use any stock images or clip art in the logo.
Colors are welcome and expected, but the logo must also work in black and white. Therefore, no gradations.
Final version will be:
1. Created entirely in vector art (create outlines for type). Needs to be scalable.
2. Create logo in CMYK and black and white
3. Final product must be usable for web and print. (vector and layered .psd)

Police Shocked After Murderer Turns Himself In... 32 Years Later
By Bill Galluccio
July 11, 2018
It took 32 years, but the murder of Russell Haines has finally been solved. Police in Kelso, Washington were shocked when 58-year-old Glenn Adams walked into the Cowlitz County Hall of Justice and confessed to the 1986 murder.
Haines was strangled to death in his hotel room in what police believed was a robbery. Adams confirmed their theory and claimed he attacked Haines because he knew he had a large amount of cash. He told the cops that he jumped Haines when he returned from the grocery store and put him a chokehold until he was unconscious. When Haines began to wake up, Adams tied a cloth around his neck and choked him until he died. He then left the room with around $400 in cash and didn't leave any evidence linking him to the murder.
"Thirty years in the making, it got solved relatively easily," Sergeant Chris Blanchard, a spokesperson for Longview Police Department, told KATU News. "We didn't have any suspects that had sufficient evidence to charge at that point. The case was cold for the last 30 years."

and Strike Waterproof Tactical Magnum Men's 6" Black Military Force Boot UgqxfwYH
A company built an algorithm that aims to quantify the amount of sadness in a music track. The streaming service collected metadata on each of the 35 million songs in their database and judge them with a scoring system. Tracks with high valence sound more positive, tracks with low valence are more positive. There is 6" Tactical Black Boot Military Men's Strike Force Waterproof Magnum and also similar scoring for how fast, loud and noisy a track may be.
Based on this research and scoring system, these are the saddest Billboard number one songs from 1958 to 2018:
- The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face – Roberta Flack (number 1 in 1972)
- Three Times a Lady – Commodores (1978)
- Are You Lonesome Tonight? – Elvis Presley (1960)
- Mr. Custer – Larry Verne (1960)
- Still – Commodores (1979)
This topic prompted the topic of choosing your favorite sad song. Bobby Bones Show members chose their favorite as well as talked with listeners about their favorites. Here they are:

The cause of nocturnal enuresis/bedwetting is considered unknown. There is a hereditary correlation. Bedwetting children are approximately three-to-four times more likely to have parents who had the same childhood problem. Nocturnal enuresis inclines to be self-limiting as the child grows older.
The medical treatment for children is the prescription of imipramine or desmopressin. Desmopressin is used as an intranasal spray and does appear to be effective. The long-term effectiveness of the drug is questioned (12% to 31%) when the spray is discontinued. The side-effects of desmopressin are allergic reaction, seizures, increased blood pressure, hyponatremia and water intoxication.
The use of the alarm system to alter behavior appears to be the most effective (70% improvement of cases) when used with children over the age of seven.
The social ramifications of bedwetting take a greater toll on a child and family than most would suspect. The first is the embarrassment and frustration of the child being unable to fit in with his or her peers. Preparation for bed may entail a plastic cover over the mattresses, pull-up diapers, setting a bed alarm, or the use of drugs.
Parental involvement is also great with this disorder: getting up in the middle of the night to wake up the child; doctor visits to try and find a solution; and extra loads of wash. If parents are not properly educated, these children may have the extra burden of being branded as lazy and chastised for a disorder they may have little or no control over.
The Story of Two Classmates
After two years of persistent conversation "to try chiropractic," the son of one of my husband's best friends brought in her seven-year-old son for a chiropractic evaluation. The child had been a chronic bedwetter and would void his entire bladder two to three times a week. The mother noted no pattern when the child would wet or alarm therapy.
The child also had a history of headaches (approximately one a week). There were no outstanding injuries other than the typical falls one might expect from an active child. All medical examinations ruled out urological or neurological causes.
This disorder became more urgent to treat as the child became older and "sleepover" invitations were hard to dismiss.
The chiropractic evaluation revealed normal range-of-motion of the lumbar and cervical spine. The orthopedic and neurological tests appeared negative. Upon static palpation, the presence of tenderness and edema was located at C5, T6, T12 and S2 (second sacral segment). Motion palpation confirmed decreased -Z translation (posterior to anterior) motion. The sacrum revealed general restriction of motion in relationship to the right SI joint.
The lateral radiographic study revealed posteriority and inferiority at C5 and posteriority at T6 and S2. There was a slight increase of the lumbosacral angle. The line analysis of the AP radiographic study revealed the following listings: C5 PL, T6 PL and posteriority of S2.
This patient was adjusted once a week for the first eight weeks. The technique used was short-lever, high-amplitude Gonstead adjustment. The segment that was adjusted for the first two weeks was posterior S2. After the first adjustment, the mother recorded that the bedwetting had gone down to one time a week. After the second week, C5 was also adjusted. The patient has been adjusted 14 times in a five-month period. At the time of this article, the child averages wetting the bed two to three times a month.
Due to the activity level of the child, specifically playing soccer, attempting to schedule the child's visits beyond three weeks increases the bedwetting frequency rate. It should be noted that there have been only two recorded headache complaints since the introduction of the cervical adjustment.
Case Number Two
Thirty days after the introduction of this first case, this schoolboy referred his classmate for chiropractic care. This little boy took one of my business cards and gave it to his classmate. Not only were they best friends in second grade, but they also had a common bond: they both knew the embarrassment of bedwetting. They discovered this earlier that summer as they had their first sleepover. The boys told me they became best friends when they realized they both used pull-ups before going to bed to avoid wetting the sheets.
The mother of the second boy shared with me in the consultation, "see this Dr. Claudia, she can fix bedwetting.'"
The history of the second boy was slightly different. He had a history of trauma; in-utero constraint; difficult labor; forceps used during the C-section; numerous falls striking his head as a toddler; and he fell out of a tree at age four.
As an infant, he manifested asthma and allergies. The child uses verolin on a regular basis. Along with bedwetting 3-4 nights a week, the child was beginning to present hyperactive behavior.
The mother stated that the bedwetting seemed to be worse when her son used verolin, was fatigued, or had fluid increase prior to bedtime. Prior medical examination indicated no organic reason for the bedwetting disorder.
The child had been treated the year earlier with the alarm technique for six to eight weeks. This did help out the problem short-term. There was a noted reduction to one week at a time; however, the frequency returned shortly after the alarm had been discontinued. Although the mother expressed satisfaction from the alarm, she believed, "There had to be something else that can be done; this is no life for my son by using an alarm."
The evaluation revealed a decrease in the cervical range of motion with tenderness at the C1-C2 and C7-T1 region. The lumbar range of motion was normal. Orthopedic and neurological tests were negative. Static and motion palpation confirmed tenderness, edema and restriction at C2, C7, T4 and S2.
The lateral radiographic study revealed an increased lumbosacral curve with posteriority at S2 and T4 and posteriority and inferiority at C2 and C7. The AP radiographic revealed mild left thoracic scoliosis and right compensatory deviation from the center of gravidity in the cervical spine. The line drawings derived the following listings: C2 PL, C7 PR, T4 PL, S2 posterior.
The child was adjusted once to twice a week for the first nine weeks. A short-lever, high-amplitude Gonstead adjustment was used. S2 was adjusted the first three visits. The mother noted that the bedwetting had been reduced to one time a week by the second week. After the first four weeks, C7 and T4 were also being adjusted.
At the time of this article, the child has an average of one bedwetting episode a week; his asthma has improved approximately 40 percent; and the hyperactive behavior has begun to diminish.
The boys occasionally come in together for their chiropractic visits. Between the giggles, they think my adjustments "are cool" since they don't wet their beds as much.
What I enjoy the most when the boys come in for their adjustments is being aware that their quality of life has improved. Only time's difficult to tell seven year old boys not to cause microtrauma to their spinal joints (falls, wrestling and playing hard goes with the territory). Instead, their satisfied parents are happy with their progress and continue to elect to use chiropractic care.

Mustang MonthlyNews & Views
Pony Tales: Ford Mustang News - July 2014
The World of Mustangs
Can't Keep a Good Mustang DownBack in August 2011 Hurricane Irene flooded Frank Bruno's garage in New Bern, NC. The bad news was his '66 Mustang convertible was in said garage at the time. Fran had built the car over a period of three years back in the 1980's. The Mustang was a combination of a six-cylinder/manual trans convertible (which had no engine, transmission, interior or top) and a V-8/automatic coupe that had been T-Boned.
The insurance company unfortunately declared the car a total loss. However, Frank offered to take a reduction in the insurance payout so that he could keep the car and rebuild it. "Eight months later I was driving my beloved Mustang again," Frank happily stated. The photos Frank added to his email show the Mustang in the flooded garage in August 2011 and home again and ready to drive back in April 2012.

All Choked UpWe regrettably passed along a bit of misinformation in our story, "How To: Install a Manual Choke," in the May '14 issue. We told you the manual choke kit for Autolite 4100s would also fit the 2100 two-barrel carburetor. This is not true according to Garrett Marks of Mustangs Etc. There were manual choke 2100 carburetors produced for F-series trucks, which were configured differently from the 4100. Manual choke conversion kits for the 4100 are available from Mustangs Etc. at (818) 787-7634 or www.mustangsetc.com.
On the Bookshelf: The Tasca Ford LegacyFor many the name "Tasca" conjures up the Cobra Jet Mustang legacy and how one man and his dealership built their own 428 big-block powered Mustangs to be able to compete with the offerings from Chrysler and GM and how Ford adopted the idea to build the '68½ Cobra Jet Mustangs, now a rare part of Mustang's history. That said, Tasca was, and is, more than just a Ford dealership that built its own custom Mustangs (and Fairlanes, etc.). The performance image it created helped to build the dealership into one of the top Ford performance dealerships in the country. Today they continue that success with their vehicle sales and racing efforts in NHRA.
Long time Ford journalist Bob McClurg takes an unprecedented look "under the hood" of Tasca. From the early days of Bob Tasca's start as a Ford franchisee through its growth in the muscle car era to today, where Tasca still sells the complete Ford line and wins races with the Ford name as well. That legendary Tasca trunk emblem (as seen on the cover of the book) meant something back in the '60s, that your Ford came from one of the greatest performance dealers around, and it still means the same thing today. This historical retrospective covers all of Tasca's history and is a must read for any Mustang or Ford enthusiast. The 8.5-inch by 11-inch hardcover book features 192 pages with 230 images and is available for $39.95 plus $6.95 shipping/handling by calling CarTech Books at (800) 551-4754 or at www.cartechbooks.com/tasca.

44° North Huckleberry Vodka is produced by the 44° North Distillery in Idaho. According to their website, it is the first vodka approved to wear the Idaho Potato Commission's official seal. It is distilled from 100% Idaho potatoes, blended with sweet Rocky Mountain water, and infused with mountain huckleberries.
It is sweet and fruity on the nose with a rich berry smell. It doesn't smell artificial, in fact it has a fresh and natural smell that entices you to take a sip. The natural smell carries through on the taste filling your mouth with a burst of berry flavor. It is silky smooth and well balanced, finishing with a warming sensation rather than a harsh burn.
It is on par if not better than some of the other flavored vodkas available from many of the major and more well known distillers.
I used the Royal Toast as my inspiration for the drink below.
Royal Bloodline
1.5 oz 44° North Huckleberry Vodka
1 oz Lillet Blanc
.5 oz Cherry Brandy (Cherry Brandy)
1 dash of Orange Bitters
stir all ingredients with ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass
The rich cherry brandy and light berry flavor of the vodka are balanced out by the complexity of the Lillet Blanc. The vodka also adds an alcoholic punch that helps to open up the other flavors and bring out the nuances of the Lillet.
The 2nd drink is called:
Black Magic
2 oz 44° North Huckleberry Vodka
.5 oz – .75 oz Coffee Liqueur (depends on the strength of your liqueur. the stronger the coffee flavor the less you need.)
1 tsp of lemon juice
shake and strain into an ice filled rocks glass. Garnish with a lemon twist.
This one tastes just as you would imagine. It has a strong coffee flavor with a fruity background provided by the vodka. The lemon juice helps to brighten and lighten both of the stronger flavors and bridge the gap between them. Try this in place of your next black or white russian and let me know what you think.

The Samsung SGH-i667 aka the 'Mandel' is one of the last Windows Phone that we have very little information about. It passed BT certification in January and then cleared the FCC in March but since it did not co-launch with the HTC Titan II and the Nokia Lumia 900, it is presumed that the Samsung LTE phone was canceled.
Now, two images have leaked out of the device, the first one you see above is the back of the phone and it shows a svelte, glossy white smooth rounded back.
The second image is a screen cap of the device connected up to Zune Desktop, showing the device name. The AT&T logo is prominent on the device and featured in that image which is pulled from Microsoft's servers.
The device also appears to be sporting only 8GB of storage (with 5.61 available) which tells us that this was probably not a high-end, flagship phone for AT&T but an offshoot of the Focus Flash, which also goes by the name i667.
Other than that we just don't have any more information. The images come by way of the site WPXAP and no other details were given.
Samsung has reportedly taken a break from Windows Phone to work on a high-end Windows Phone 8 device for the fall (rumored to be a Galaxy S3 knock off). Could the 'Mandel' have been skipped or passed over by AT&T or even Sammy? We may never know.
We'll keep an eye out though we know we'd like to add it to our collection. Samsung looks good in glossy white.

This one from Restoration Hardware is my favorite.
Any guesses how much this one costs?
That's dollars, not pennies, folks.
I'm not kidding.
So I decided to try to make one.
When it comes to the things I put on my walls, I'm a little weird.
I want to look at things that mean something to me--things that I love.
So I made my subway sign art using the names of the places or streets that we have lived.
I started with this thrifted art,
Then painted it with chalkboard paint, because that is the only black paint I had on hand, and also, I was considering a chalk dust look.
Next, I printed out the words I wanted on my sign. I messed with font size for a while, till I found what worked best.
To transfer the letters to the sign, I used this tutorial and it worked like a charm.
Next, I used a white pen to fill in the letters.
I painted a clear varnish over it, {which completely erased all signs of my chalky look}

by J.P. Hyppolite and Len Lear
Omenihu Amachi was once a popular radio broadcaster in his homeland of Nigeria, but now he is an extraordinarily talented artist who reflects the pride in his Nigerian heritage in his eye-catching paintings, 30 of which were exhibited Sunday, April 22, in "The Art of Wellness" at Morris Arboretum in Chestnut Hill. Dr. Sheila Davis, Dr. Michelle Palos-Samsi and others at St Catherine Laboure Clinic, 5838 Germantown Ave., planned the event in conjunction with Morris Arboretum to support healthcare for the uninsured in Philadelphia.
"Some time ago," said Omenihu, "the extremely caring and hard-working doctors at St Catherine talked with me about fundraising ideas for the clinic, and I was thrilled to participate." Seven other artists also signed on to participate in the "Wellness" idea, to exhibit spiritual and uplifting art in a healthy, healing garden environment, to support the wellness of patients.
The one-day show went well. Although attendance goals were not reached because of the rain that fell all day on April 22, "it was better than I anticipated," said Omenihu. "I am thankful that I sold two paintings out of the 30 works I showed at the exhibit."
According to Bob Gutowski, Director of Public Programs for Morris Arboretum, "Amachi's work certainly caught my attention with its bold color and forms, lively expression of peoples, community, place and the experience of symbol. The fun and the profound don't often mix this well. I very much enjoyed his presence and his art.
"The event came about the way these things often do, by people helping people and creating partnerships to do so. An Arboretum volunteer who also supports the St.Catherine Laboure Medical Clinic inquired about holding a fund-raising event here. We felt there was an opportunity to try something new by linking the garden and art in the pursuit of wellness in our community." Bob met with Dr. Sheila Davis from St. Catherine's, and they worked out the details.
"The event was successful, in spite of the otherwise welcome rain. With about 100 participants, art sales were light, but the sense of community and spirits was strong. Through event promotion and the partnership, we were able to make more people aware of the Clinic and introduce a new audience to Morris Arboretum. Our partnership for wellness is continuing beyond the event. It was also successful as a pilot event that allowed us to explore a pop-up art exhibit in our visitors center during regular garden hours."
Many visitors were clearly impressed by Amachi's passionate narratives, expressed in vivid, colorful brushstrokes. His vibrant style incorporates the drumbeat rhythm and symbolism of his heritage. His work is in oil, acrylic and occasionally water color. "I like to do narrative work," he explained, "sometimes symbolism. I look at my work to uplift the human condition."
One of Omenihu's favorite pieces is "Adam and Eve." The beautiful acrylic painting portrays an African Adam and Eve and echoes the notion that there are moments in time when individuals do things they know they should not do. "We do things that are harmful to ourselves, in spite of the beauty and everything that surrounds us. We as humans like to go around and enjoy life, sometimes to the detriment of others around us. We should be careful because in the process we hurt ourselves and maybe hurt others. We want to be cautious while we enjoy ourselves."
Amachi, who requested that his age not be mentioned, also highlighted a painting named "Restrictions on Beauty." He described how beauty is expressed yet restricted in his tribal Igbo culture and how women all over the world "beautify" themselves. "Society puts restrictions on the young women so that they can focus their attention on doing what's required by going to school, helping out their parents and the community, instead of focusing their attention on beauty, which is expensive and takes away time."
"Female Right of Passage," another acrylic painting, describes young girls being taken to a place that used to be called the "fattening room." They were "fed properly" and taught how to become willing and useful to themselves, their family and society. The piece shows a period of celebration.
Anyone examining Omenihu's work cannot help but notice the almost palpable pride in his homeland. Omenihu's father was born in Aba, located in the state of Adia in Nigeria. As previously stated, Omenihu is of the Igbo people, most of whom inhabited what was known as Biafra (or The Republic of Biafra), Nigeria. Tragically, what was once The Republic of Biafra suffered horrifically during the Nigeria-Biafra War of the late 1960s and early 1970s.
The Igbo people make up much of the southeastern portion of Nigeria. Due to various ethnic conflicts, The Republic of Biafra was formed after the southeastern provinces broke away from Nigeria on May 30, 1967. War then broke out two months later between Biafra and the Nigerian government. The conflict and how it affected Igbo culture is a significant feature of the art of Omenihu, who "saw what was going on from a little boy's eye or perspective.
"There has been a lot of persecution and marginalization of people from my area. We Igbo are hard working and progressive people by nature … I find ways to include that in my painting. It may not be overt in some instances, but there are also works that point to the war." One example is a painting called "Mama Feeding Hungry Biafra Children of Women," which depicts Omenihu's mother feeding starving women and children.
The Nigerian native uses other platforms to showcase his art, such as producing and hosting a radio program called "Art Bearing Witness." He does this through MjoTAtalks, which represents the voice of the Medical Journal of Therapeutic Africa. It is through this platform that Omenihu uses his art to "bear witness" to the condition of the Igbo people. On the radio Amachi interviews (Igbo) people about how they survived the Nigeria-Biafra war. The interviews also reveal how some of the survivors wound up in the U.S. and what they are doing today.

Omenihu is very proud of his mother and of the drive and values instilled in him by his father. "The hard work ethic that my father always carried on with the family laid a path for me," he declared. "I try to work as hard as I can to produce meaningful work. That work does not end. It goes from early in the morning to early in the next morning."
When Omenihu moved to the U.S. in 1983, he settled in Philadelphia. He graduated from Cheney University in 2008 with degrees in Communications Arts and Fine Art. He currently lives in Olney with his wife, Patricia, and a daughter, Olunna.
"The joy and essence of life is so often overlooked," said Omenihu, "so I paint to capture and preserve the essence of peace and beauty and to encourage you to pause, smell the roses and appreciate God's awesome love."

Columnist Amity Shlaes — author of The Greedy Hand, formerly of the Wall Street Journal editorial board and the Financial Times — has emerged as a linkable columnist for Bloomberg News. Her current column on the Enron debacle is a good one. She recalls Sam Insull, Enron, what Enron did to the culture of accounting, the wiring of Chicago and how we are reminded of this again from the trial of Kenneth Lay and Jeffrey Skilling. As is her custom, Amity draws on economic history to illuminate current events.

Can we hear some of this Jim? It sounds very interesting.
Jim,There should be a small wooden beater that came with the bowl. Rotate the beater around the edges of the bowl, as if you were playing a wine glass.Have fun!Forrest
Friction is the key to the brass bowls. Often those beaters are a bit slick, you mau want to sand it down a bit with some fine grade sandpaper. My friend wraps his with some type of fabric and that apparently helps get the tone within a few rotations.
Hi Jim - I just took the quickest of looks and I was getting blue links on the brown background which didn't make for a pleasant contrast.I'd suggest trying another colour for your links (and "visited" links).My two cents...
Hi Jim!Cool, you have your very own website! Is "OpOp" your grandson? (Hey, weren't you thinking about making "Meditate Your Ass Off" T-shirts awhile back)?

The report "NCTQ Teacher Prep Review," from the National Council on Teacher Quality (NCTQ), inadequately represents the preparation that English/language arts teachers receive. We agree with Linda Darling-Hammond who urges readers to take the report with an entire shaker of salt. Based on publicly available data such as syllabi, catalog descriptions, and self-reports from a mere fraction of the institutions evaluated, NCTQ focused only on a limited number of input measures.
Teacher education programs should be assessed and critiqued on more than that. And they are. In the past two decades, I have seen an ever-quickening pace of self-examination and improvement in teacher education. Numerous English/language arts programs engage in thoughtful, rigorous peer review through NCATE and CAEP that requires evidence of teacher performance and ability to improve student achievement. Such reviews focus on outputs such as demonstration of knowledge through instructional planning and assessment of student learning.
In 2011, CEE wrote an analysis of the plans announced by NCTQ/U.S. News & World Report, expressing our concerns and offering suggestions for improvement of the methodology. Now that the report is published, those concerns remain.
The Conference on English Education welcomes efforts to improve the quality of teachers, which is the end toward which we have dedicated our organization. An evaluation system that teacher educators would endorse would be a great contribution to those who prepare teacher candidates for the complex and challenging work that awaits them in a shifting demographic and policy landscape. However, such a system must go beyond what is stated on course syllabi and program descriptions and look more widely and deeply at the factors necessary for success in 21st century classrooms.
The NCTQ report does not do that.

What Do Global Warming Skeptics Fear?
Climate skeptics fear that people who are not qualified to opine on the complex topic of energy production may cripple economies with assorted misguided energy related boondoggles. Is that a realistic concern? What are the odds? Russ Finley argues that the odds are not zero.

Solvar Jewelry Sterling Silver Marcasite Claddagh Ring $49.95
The story of the Claddagh goes back to the 1600's when the first ring was made in Claddagh on the edge of Galway City. By tradition it is taken to signify the wish that love and friendship should reign supreme. Two hands cradling a crowned heart: The Heart for Love, the Hands for Friendship, the Crown for Loyalty.
It is equally popular with men and women. Wear the ring on the right hand, the crown turned inward, the heart is open. Wear the ring on the right hand, the crown turned outward, love is being considered. Wear the ring on the left hand, the crown turned outward, two hearts are joined.
Marcasite is a term applied to small polished and faceted stones that are traditionally inlaid in sterling sliver to create beautiful jewelry with a classic and sophisticated appeal.

Vin Diesel (born Mark Sinclair Vincent; July 18, 1967) is an American actor, writer, director and producer. He became known in the early 2000s, appearing in several successful Hollywood films, including The Fast and the Furious and xXx. He founded the production companies One Race Films, Tigon Studios and Racetrack Records.
Vin Diesel was born in New York City, the son of Delora, a psychiatrist and astrologer. Diesel has Italian and black ancestry. He has described himself as "definitely a person of color" and stated that he is "of ambiguous ethnicity - Italian and a lot of other stuff".[6] Diesel has never met his biological father, and was raised by his African-American stepfather, Irving, an acting instructor and theatre manager. He made his stage debut at age seven when he appeared in the children's play Dinosaur Door, written by Barbara Garson. The play was produced at Theater for the New City in New York's Greenwich Village. His involvement in the play came about when he, his brother and some friends had broken into Theater for the New City's space on Jane Street with the intent to vandalize it. They were confronted by the Theater's Artistic Director, Crystal Field, who instead of calling the police, handed them scripts and offered them parts in the upcoming show. He remained involved with the theatre throughout adolescence, going on to attend the city's Hunter College, where his creative writing studies led him to begin screenwriting. Diesel became an active film-maker in the early 1990s, first earning notice for the short film Multi-Facial, which was selected for screening at the 1995 Cannes Festival. Diesel has identified himself as a "multi-faceted" actor as a result of early difficulties finding roles due to his mixed heritage.
In an interview on Late Night with Conan O'Brien, he said that he changed his name to "Vin Diesel" while working as a bouncer at the New York City nightclub Tunnel, because in that business one's real name is not usually given out. The name "Vin" is simply a shortened version of "Vincent". He received the nickname "Diesel" from his friends who said he ran off diesel, referring to his non-stop energy.

On a final note, it's sad when you see athletes who finish second turn down interviews (this didn't personally happen to me), but those who finish sixth love what they did. Look, everyone wants to win at state, but there is only one winner per event. Too many people take for granted their supposed "greatness," and when it doesn't work out, they pout. On the other hand, I saw athletes thrilled to death just to be interviewed even if they placed low in the finals. They didn't expect anything. They took what they got and moved on, because it was more than they ever got before.
A little humility can go a long way.

- Decoding Dashboard Indicator Lights
Decoding your Dashboard
Indicator Lights
Your dashboard is designed to keep you informed about the health of your vehicle. Trust Pep Boy's dashboard indicator light decoder to give you the insight you need to understand what is going on with your car. From your check engine light to your oil pressure light, we have the information you need to understand why that light might be on?ven if it's because you've accidentally left your door open or your parking brake up (don't worry, we've all done it). Simply select a dashboard indicator below and learn all about your dashboard lights. If you are in a bad situation or require immediate assistance, call 1-800-Pep-Boys and we will do everything it takes to get you back on the road safely and with confidence.
Click on a dashboard indicator light and see it's description below
Anti-Lock Brake System Light
The Anti-Lock Brake System Light, also known as the ABS Light, indicates that there is a malfunction in your vehicle's anti-lock brake system. The malfunction is logged by your vehicle's onboard computer system and the applicable OBD2 codes are readable only with diagnostic tools. Issues triggering your Anti-Lock Brake System Light can range in nature from a dirty wheel sensor to loss of voltage. When the ABS light triggers, your anti-lock brake system disengages and does not turn back on until your vehicle is serviced. Even if the ABS light is on, you should have normal brake pedal and stopping capabilities.
Brake Light
The Brake Light can be activated for a number of reasons. The simplest cause is that the parking brake is engaged. If the brake light is still illuminated after the parking brake has been fully disengaged, there could be a more serious issue. Lack of hydraulic pressure or a low fluid level due to leaking will both generate your Brake Light - and both issues indicate an immediate need for service. Brake fluid leaks are particularly dangerous as they can cause your brakes to fail and contaminate different components of your brake system. Make sure your brakes are still stopping your vehicle if you are attempting to drive. If there is no brake pressure at all, it is safest to stop driving and call for a tow.
Check Engine Light
The Check Engine Light is triggered by a systematic abnormality detected by your vehicle's onboard computer system. This light can activate for a number of reasons that vary in severity. The check engine light can trigger for something as simple as a loose gas cap to something as serious as a faulty catalytic convertor. Upon being triggered, a fault code, also known as OBD2 codes, detailing the nature of the issue is registered in your vehicle's diagnostic system. This fault code is stored and can only be retrieved via diagnostic equipment. If your Check Engine Light is on, make sure you bring your vehicle in for testing as soon as possible. If your Check Engine Light is flashing, your onboard computer system is logging a potentially dangerous problem and you should not drive your car.
Battery Light
The Battery Light indicator triggers when there is an issue with your vehicle's electrical system. The cause can be something small, such as a loose wire, or something larger like your vehicle's battery not properly holding a charge. If this light turns on while you are driving, try to keep your ignition running - if you turn your car off, it may not restart. Bring your vehicle over to your local Pep Boys for a free battery test! If you are not able to get your car to start, we advise that you call for a tow.
Temperature Warning Light
The Temperature Warning Light gauges the heat of your engine. If the light engages, it is indicating that your engine is overheating. Overheating can be the result of a low coolant level. If this light activates while you are driving, immediately pull over and turn your car off to let it cool. Do not open the radiator before your car has had a chance to cool down as it could be very hot and cause an injury.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Your Tire Pressure Monitoring System Light, or TPMS light, warns that there is a drop in air pressure in one or more tires. You should add air to your low tire(s) as soon as possible. If you add air and your tire is continuously losing air, you may have a puncture in the tire.
Tire Rotation
The Tire Rotation Light triggers to let you know that it is time to rotate your tires. Rotating your tires promotes even wear to extend your tire life. At Pep Boys, we offer a free tire rotation with every oil change.
Fog Lamp Indicator
The Fog Lamp Indicator serves as a confirmation that your fog lamps are illuminated.
Low Fuel Light
The Low Fuel Light engages when your vehicle's fuel sensing unit hits a specified amount of resistance indicating the need for more gas. If your low fuel light comes on, it is probably time to fill up. Use these gas saving tips so you can Save Gas Now!
Headlight Indicator
The Headlight Indicator serves as a confirmation that your headlights are illuminated. If the clarity of your headlights is less than optimal, try our headlight restoration products or service package.
Oil Pressure Light
The Oil Pressure Light indicates one of two things - Either the sensor that activates the Oil Pressure dashboard light has failed or your engine has low oil pressure. Low oil pressure could be the result of a leak or your engine burning oil. Check your oil levels with a dipstick and add motor oil if needed. If your light stays on, we advise that you call for a tow. If you are experiencing a leak or just need an oil change, your closest store offers same day appointments!
Traction Control System Light
Traction Control is also known as Anti-Slip Regulation. Traction Control engages in slippery driving conditions when wheels are spinning out of synch. The system triggers your ABS system to apply brake friction to even out and stabilize the wheels spinning out of synch. When the Traction Control System Light activates, the triggering device is disabled and cannot control the amount of wheel slip in a driving situation. If the light remains illuminated for an extended period of time, you might need an OBD2 code pull for diagnosis.
Service Engine Soon
The Service Engine Soon Light is triggered by a systematic abnormality detected by your vehicle's onboard computer system. This light can activate for a number of reasons that vary in severity. The Service Engine Soon Light can trigger for something as simple as a loose gas cap to something as serious as a faulty catalytic convertor. Upon being triggered, a fault code, also known as OBD2 codes, detailing the nature of the issue is registered in your vehicle's diagnostic system. This fault code is stored and can only be retrieved via diagnostic equipment. If your Service Engine Soon Light is on, make sure you bring your vehicle in for testing as soon as possible. If your Service Engine Soon Light is flashing, your onboard computer system is logging a potentially dangerous problem and you should not drive your car.
Hazard Lights
Hazard Lights signal caution to other motorists. This indicator is typically a lamp with a built in switch that is used to operate the hazard flashers.
Airbag Light
The Airbag Light indicates that there may be an issue with the deployment of your air bags. This is especially dangerous in the event of an accident. It is advisable to have this matter diagnosed as quickly as possible in order to keep you and your passengers safe.
Door Ajar Light
The Door Ajar Light indicates that a door or trunk is not closed properly. Please check all of your doors and your trunk to ensure that they are closed. Upon closing properly the Door Ajar Warning Light will disengage. If it does not, you may need your computer reset.

Pacific Plankton Crosses to Atlantic...Thanks to Arctic Meltdown
Neodenticula seminae, a microscopic strand of photosynthesizing plankton, is common in much of the northern Pacific Ocean.
The plankton hadn't been seen in the northern Atlantic in some 800,000 years—until a survey in 1999 turned up a bunch in the Labrador Sea. Researchers speculate it traveled along with a pulse of warm Pacific water, part of the changing circulation patterns in the far north due to global warming.
Warming's most obvious oceanic effect is the opening of the fabled Northwest Passage for the first time in recorded history. Which makes it more likely for N. seminae to have fellow travelers.
Pacific zooplankton—microscopic animals—have made the trip, and clams, oysters, snails and slugs may soon follow. These Pacific denizens could displace or disrupt their Atlantic cousins, potentially transforming the entire food web. Which is why a consortium of 17 marine institutes in 10 European countries is now monitoring the migrations, an effort known as Climate Change and European Marine Ecosystem Research.
Over the last decade, N. seminae has firmly established itself in the Labrador Sea, waters near Iceland and the Gulf of Saint Lawrence. You can't call the plankton a fish out of water. But you can say that its waters are changing—and fast.
—David Biello
