Task force hears Newtown voices
NEWTOWN -- Before a crowd far different from the one at Monday's hearing in Hartford, and just a few miles from the site of the horrors of Dec. 14, a legislative task force on Wednesday heard from many of those directly affected by the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
Some 140 people, including town officials, families who lost children, first responders and local residents signed up to address the Bipartisan Task Force on Gun Violence and Child Safety at Newtown High School. About 500 people attended.
"This is a very different crowd than we saw in Hartford on Monday," said Marty Isaac, president of the CT Against Gun Violence, as he handed out stickers at the entrance to the auditorium.
"We're at ground zero," Isaac said, "and I think it's going to be very emotional."
Outside the school, Newtown residents Bob Carter and his wife, Jan Newburg, held placards advocating gun control and promoting a march for "reasonable gun laws" at the state Capitol on Feb. 14.
Cars pulling into the school slowed as they passed Carter's sign, which read: "NRA: Guns don't kill people, people kill people. We just make it easier."
At a table in the school lobby, other members of CT Against Gun Violence were doing a brisk business selling T-shirts advertising the Feb. 14 Hartford rally.
Most of the early speakers were largely for stronger gun control measures, such as bans on the sale of military-style assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, and in favor of more stringent background checks.
But gun rights advocates were also present.
In a rear corner of the auditorium, Dave Barzetti, a gun owner, went over the remarks he would make to the task force with the assistance of his wife, Carla.
"Gun owners should not be penalized for the wrongdoing of one person," Barzetti said.
He said he favored placing school resource officers and armed police officers in the schools.
"Guns have become synonymous with crazy people," Carla Barzetti said. "But guns can also protect. We need to look at what is making the object evil, and it all lies with the shooter."
As the hearing got under way, the moderator, state Sen. John McKinney, R-Fairfield, whose district includes Newtown, asked the crowd to refrain from applauding or cheering when they agreed with a speaker's comments, in order to save time.
But the admonition quickly fell by the wayside when the first speaker, Newtown First Selectman Pat Llodra, called for banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, stringent background checks and improved mental health services, concluded her remarks to thunderous applause.
"I can accept that change will be incremental," Llodra said . "I ask that you commit yourself to this journey of change for as long as it takes to make a difference on these issues. One legislative session will hardly make a dent on what we need to do. Please be there with us for the long haul."
From then on, the audience applauded the speakers, sometimes vigorously, other times politely.
They stood en masse as parents of the children and the six educators who were killed spoke of their losses.
"Anger is a major issue in society," said Scarlett Lewis, whose son, Jesse, was one of those killed.
"He was 6 years old ... wondering when he was going to lose his first tooth," she said. "There were 19 others like him, in addition to six other beautiful souls that were lost."
Lewis asked those at the hearing to "choose love."

Hinrich won't play in Game 7
Brooklyn, NY – Chicago Bulls guard Kirk Hinrich will not play in Saturday's deciding Game 7 of the team's Eastern Conference quarterfinals series with the Brooklyn Nets.
Hinrich also missed the last two matchups of this set -- both Chicago losses -- with a left calf injury, but did travel with the Bulls to Brooklyn and had been listed as a game-time decision. However, head coach Tom Thibodeau told reporters prior to warmups that the veteran point guard had been ruled out.
The Bulls were already entering Saturday's do-or-die showdown without Luol Deng, the club's leading scorer during the regular season who spent part of Saturday hospitalized back in Chicago with an unknown illness. The Chicago Tribune reported that the forward developed complications from a spinal tap he underwent earlier in the week.
Deng sat out Thursday's Game 6, a 95-92 Nets' win in Chicago that evened the series at 3-3, as well.

When faced with situations you think they're built to convert, the Falcons haven't.
But those involved don't want to draw a line connecting the short-yardage run game failures against the Giants in last year's playoffs to yesterday's inability to run the ball against the Saints.
The Falcons managed just 46 yards on 18 rush attempts against the league's worst defense. They also couldn't convert a third-and-1 run in the fourth quarter, and elected for two other passes from inside the 2 with a chance to win.
"That's two totally different ballgames," center Todd McClure said of the comparison to the playoff loss to the Giants, via Michael Cunningham of the Atlanta Journal Constitution. "That's what [ticks] me off more than anything is you guys are going to write about how bad we are up front and that we can't get in the end zone. But there's more to it than just blocking up front, and that's all I'm going to say about that.
"I get really frustrated when I hear things and read things knowing there's more to it than five guys up front but we take the brunt of the blame. I don't want to talk about that anymore because I don't want to say anything I regret."
You mean, like pointing out the back who isn't gaining the tough yards anymore?
Falcons running back Michael Turner's been good for about a game per month this year, and Sunday wasn't it. He finished with 15 yards on 13 carries (1.2 yards per carry).
"It is in every aspect of it," McClure said. "But we get the ball on the one, we are expected to get it in. I just get frustrated sometimes the past couple years. There's more to it than just lining up and blocking the guys wherever they line up. And that's it. I can't talk about it anymore."
Of course, McClure recused himself from saying it was any other particular thing, but he doesn't have to say it. Anyone who has seen Turner run this year has seen it too.

Ontario Schools for Occupational Therapy and Physical Therapy
Masters in Physical and Occupational Therapy Schools guide rehabilitation professionals and students through research, coursework, and hands-on supervised fieldwork. Prospective students tend to look for schools for occupational therapy, physical therapy, athletic training, and kinesiology in a convenient location—for example, one that is close to home or work.
Masters in Physical and Occupational Therapy Schools: Basics
Many Masters in Physical and Occupational Therapy Schools offer traditional on-campus programs for those who prefer to learn in person at regular class times. Campus programs enable learners to forge bonds with their classmates, and participate in live lectures with faculty. Moreover, they could also provide students with access to university and local community resources.
To pinpoint the graduate schools, refine your search for master's programs such as Master of Science in Occupational Therapy (MSOT), Masters in Kinesiology, Master of Science in Athletic Training (MSAT), and transitional Doctorate in Physical Therapy degrees. Masters degree programs in these fields aim to prepare students to sit for state licensure exams. Use the menu bar to search for the type of masters program that aligns with your professional goals.
Masters in Occupational Therapy Schools
Masters in Occupational Therapy Schools could help students learn how to assist those with disabilities, injuries, or illnesses tackle the meaningful activities and roles in which they live and function. Schools for occupational therapy might have OT Masters programs that are accredited by the Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education, part of the American Occupational Therapy Association.i
Master's in Physical Therapy Schools
Schools for Physical Therapy now offer programs that are targeted to students and professionals who have already earned their
Master's in Physical Therapy. Since the Doctor of Physical Therapy is the new entry-level education for physical therapists, these degree programs, called transitional Doctor of Physical Therapy (tDPT) programs could help current professionals fill in some résumé gaps and stay relevant.
Transitional, post-professional DPT programs show PTs how to use exercise, physical modalities, manual therapy approaches, assistive devices and lifestyle management to help individuals obtain maximal functional potential.ii
Masters in Kinesiology Schools
Masters in Kinesiology Schools provide advanced instruction in exercise science and body movement. A masters degree in kinesiology program covers the fitness and exercise programs that help patients recover from chronic diseases and improve their cardiovascular function, body composition, and flexibility. Interested students might look for kinesiology schools with programs that have been accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education.iii
Masters in Athletic Training Schools
Athletic Training Schools offer Master of Science in Athletic Training (MSAT) programs through the university's health science department. MSAT programs typically cover leadership and professional development, injury management, emergency care, and general medicine topics. Students could study to enhance their ability to make clinical decisions about neurological pathologies, and synthesize their knowledge through evidence-based practicum. Some athletic training programs are accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE).iv
Find Schools for OT, PT and More
Many Masters in Physical and Occupational Therapy Schools use online application forms. Prepare yourself in advance by checking out admission requirements and deadlines for application. Get started now! Easily compare sponsored schools for a MSOT, tDPT, MSAT or Masters in Kinesiology degree, then fill out the on-page form to contact the school directly.

Eli Young Band Score First No. 1 Single in Canada
Hot on the heels of their previous hit single, 'Crazy Girl,' going gold, Eli Young Band are now moving on to celebrate another hit, which has topped the Canadian country singles chart. 'Even if It Breaks Your Heart' has become the band's first No. 1 north of the U.S. border, and is also their second consecutive chart-topper in the States as of this week.
The new tune, penned by Will Hoge and Eric Paslay, is also a gold-certified hit for the Texas-based band, but it is quickly nearing platinum certification. And the group show no signs of slowing down their progress.
With a register of chart-toppers in hand, Eli Young Band are gearing up for the Teen Choice Awards on FOX this weekend. The band is nominated in three categories — Choice Country Song, Choice Country Group and Choice Breakout Group.
Should EYB take home any trophies at the Teen Choice Awards, they will sit them next to their previously won Academy of Country Music Award, which they garnered for Song of the Year for 'Crazy Girl.'

When it comes to tracing your family tree online, you need the right tools to get the job done! I've spent the last year stuffing The Genealogist's Google Toolbox with all the best free state-of-the-art Internet tools I could find from the folks who dominate the online world: Google.
In addition to the table of contents you'll find a super easy to use "How To" Index in the back. My goal is that when you need an answer, a search operator, research strategies or just some inspiration you'll reach for this toolbox and be able to grab what you need. This is one book that won't make it to your bookshelf, but rather is best suited on your desk next to your computer monitor. You can even add a copy of it to your lap top, iPhone or Nook e-reader because it's also available in digital download pdf format.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed putting it together! Happy Googling!

Paul Boomer needed a new web page design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 104 designs submitted by 20 freelance designers.
BigSurf Waterpark
BigSurf Waterpark is a smaller but well-known waterpark at the Lake of the Ozark's in Missouri.
BigSurf is very geared towards family and proves it by focusing on cleanliness, safety, transparency, and family accessibility.
http://www.bigsurfwaterpark.com - current site we like but needs to have a facelift.
http://www.easywater.com/ - like the color scheme, don't like the animation, like the number list ('How it works...') on the homepage.
http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/ - like the way the products and thumbnails work along with the generous white-space.
You'll find graphic examples we like in the 'Website Storyboard' file.
Every page will keep the same header and navigation layout.
There are four page layouts required (see attached 'Website Storyboard' PDF):
1) Homepage
2) Category page
3) Ride page
4) Content page
Homepage - This will be used as the virtual traffic cop to direct people to where they want to go. The first headline and paragraph will be written to briefly explain what Big Surf is. The seasonal area will be changed based on any current promotions. The Facebook feed will be what Facebook provides in the current site (http://www.bigsurfwaterpark.com). The three boxes at the bottom should be teasers of each subject. They should have representory images.
Category page - This is a page that should be similar to http://www.bigsurfwaterpark.com/groups.cfm. The Headline 2 will be the title of the page and the paragraph below will briefly explain the page. This explanation will need to be accompanied by an image. Each of the boxes below will also include brief explanation and will direct people to the appropriate page using the content page layout.
Ride page - Based somewhat off http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/ this page will host the information for each of the rides/attractions at the park see list of attractions in storyboard). The list of attractions should be along the top of the primary content area. Each tab should represent an attraction. The area below that will incorporate a picture of the attraction as the background and include a picture/video box that is controlled by the thumbnails below. Below the images, is the attraction information. Below that are three boxes that include information about attraction restrictions, any required equipment e.g. life jackets or tubes, and general stats about the attraction e.g. 375-thousand gallons of water... See http://www.bigsurfwaterpark.com/Wave-Pool.cfm for example of the three boxes.
Content page - This page is for everything else. It needs to be a two-column layout.
Please use the storyboard as your guide and art-board. It was designed based on the needs of our visitors and our business goals. You're the expert in giving it visual life. We are looking to add depth and fun-ness to the layout. Typography is also fair-game as you see fit.
While creating this design, please keep in mind the site needs to load as fas as possible.
If a persona, or multiple personas, is helpful please let me know and I will provide one privately.

About this font family
A completely isolated letters typeface design with an overall Hebrew look and feel. Glyphs were designed with an emphasis on isolation and vertical feel with a visual connectivity measure to help easy reading. The Ibrani (Arabic for Hebraic) font family has two members, regular and left-slanted italic styles. This font family design follows the guidelines of Mutamathil Taqlidi type style with one glyph for every basic Arabic Unicode character or letter, as defined in the latest Unicode Standards, and one additional final form glyph, for the freely-connecting letters in traditional Arabic cursive text. Ibrani employs variable x-height values. It includes only the Lam-Alif ligatures. Soft-vowel diacritic marks, harakat, are selectively positioned. Most of them appear by default on the same level, following a letter, to ensure that they would not interfere visually with letters. Tatweel is a zero-width glyph. Keying the tatweel key before Alif-Lam-Lam-Ha will display the Allah ligature. Ibrani includes both Arabic and Arabic-Indic numerals, in addition to standard punctuations.

Traveling closer to home
My current project has had me traveling back and forth to CA every other week since sometime in February. I feel a little sad that the poject is nearing its end, but will be happy to sleep in my own bed a bit more.
Without the constant shuffle back and forth to the coast, I will be able to attend a few tech events in good old St. Louis for a change. Along with trying to make it to a few of the monthly Lambda Lounge, Gateway JUG and St. Louis JUG meetings, there are two interesting events coming up.
St. Louis Google Wave Hackfest is going down August 25th and should be an interesting time seeing what we can come up with in one evening.
The Strange Loop is going to be an interesting day and a half in October. Alex Miller is putting together a small tech conference here in town at the Tivoli Theater with a focus on practical everyday things as well as cutting edge tech. As one of the first few brave souls to sign up, I am eagerly awaiting the talk schedule to be released.
Anything else I should know about in town or near by?

Optimism is flowing in Boulder as the Colorado football team looks forward to Sunday's season opener against Colorado State.
New head coach Mike MacIntyre speaks with refreshing energy. There's reason for hope when the players talk confidently about the drastic attitude difference within the program.
Then again, the memory of last season is still difficult to wipe away. The last time these Buffs got on stage, they coughed up a game to Utah. At least that one was competitive. The Utah loss, which polished off a 1-11 season, was preceded by seven consecutive beat downs. The Buffs were blown out of the water by halftime in most of those seven games.
For the all the good MacIntyre and his players have done in the spring and summer, one has to wonder: Has the quit been flushed from the Buffs?
Throughout that 1-11 disaster of a year ago, CU looked like a team that severely lacked confidence and quit more often than not. Former offensive tackle David Bakhtiari admitted that in a recent article published by the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
Now with the NFL's Green Bay Packers, Bakhtiari spoke of "dysfunction," a "lack of preparation" and a "lack of caring" from the 2012 Buffs. Another player said half the team quit in 2012.
There were only eight seniors on the squad last year, so if Bakhtiari is accurate, a good chunk of the players still at CU gave up last year.
Junior quarterback Connor Wood said MacIntyre and his staff have done a good job of putting the players in difficult situations during practice to simulate some adversity and get a sense for how they'll react.
"I think we'll be more prepared for it," Wood said.
The coaching staff has introduced a lot of changes since arriving in December. The offensive and defensive systems are different. The attitude is different. Several players are new to the team.
MacIntyre, however, realizes that he's got a team with a potentially fragile psyche and he's been working to repair that.
Some kids might respond one way and other kids the other, so we've got to keep it going in the right direction," MacIntyre said. "We're always going to be firm and positive; we're going to keep pushing that."
It's easier to preach that message in spring and summer than it is in the fall, though. Adversity in August practice doesn't match dealing with a 35-point deficit in the first quarter, or falling behind in the fourth quarter at home against an FCS opponent, or a costly turnover to kill a promising drive.
It'll be during those times that the Buffs truly get tested. It could be as early as Sunday that we find out whether nine months of positive energy from MacIntyre has been enough to remove the quit.
Not even MacIntyre knows the answer.
"That's up to those young men," he said. "We've done everything we can and we'll work with them and we'll keep pushing them.
"Hopefully the bond between each other is enough that they care about fighting through those things. When you have a good team, you don't even notice those things are happening. I hope we get to the point that they don't even notice, they just keep playing."
The Buffs aren't good enough right now to ignore adversity. They can get there, though, by handling it better than they've done in the past.

Warwick's baseball teams have given us a lot to talk about this spring. Pilgrim, Toll Gate and Warwick Vets have all had their ups and downs, but they're capable of making noise, and a lot of individuals have stood out. Vets' Shane Johnson has turned in two absolutely dominant pitching performances in a row. Pilgrim sophomore Ryan Morris is looking like one of the best young pitchers in the state.
But when you're talking bottom lines, the same question always comes up.
Can anybody beat Hendricken?
I've had multiple people ask me that in the past few weeks, and I'm never quite sure what to say. Yes is the correct answer. The Hawks aren't unbeatable. A couple of so-so games mixed with dominant pitching on the other side, and somebody could knock off the Hawks.
I just can't imagine that anybody will.
The Hawks are 13-0 now, and though La Salle, North Kingstown and North Providence have also been impressive, nobody has come close to Hendricken's level of dominance. The Hawks have scored the most runs in the league and allowed the fewest, as sure a sign as any that they're the best team in the league. They've out-scored their opponents 119-21. Average that out, and they're beating teams roughly 9-2 every time.
In short, they're doing it all – and doing it very well.
That's why it's hard to imagine someone beating them and beating them twice, which is what it'll take in the current playoff format. The first round is double elimination, and the semifinals and finals are both best-of-three series.
Unless an injury bug hits or the bus gets lost on its way to the field, the Hawks will enter the playoffs as the heaviest favorite we've seen on the Rhode Island high school baseball scene in a while. Only once in the last six years has the team with the best record in the state won the state title, and that was in 2009, when two 17-1 teams – Hendricken and North Kingstown – played for the title. And only once since 2004 has a Division I team gone undefeated in the regular season. That was Portsmouth in 2007, and the Patriots didn't win the title.
Most years, there have been four or five great teams, and it's come down to who plays their best in the postseason. It will come down to that this year to some extent, but I don't know that there are four or five great teams.
There's definitely one.
The Hawks are the total package. They've got the best pitching staff in the state, with Bobby Indeglia, Mike King and Tom Pannone all throwing like aces. They've got the best lineup in the league, with Pannone and Billy Walker providing more pop than just about anybody in the state.
And perhaps most of all, the Hawks are an experienced team with a chip on their shoulder. There was plenty of talent last year. They could have won the championship. And they didn't make it out of the regional round. The seniors – many of whom played big roles on a championship team as sophomores – don't want to come up empty again.
In the next few weeks, we'll continue to ask the question: can anybody stop them? You can come up with plausible situations. The easiest to envision is one bad day for the Hawks paired with one overwhelming pitching performance by an opponent. You could also point out that the Hawks have been playing close games lately. They beat St. Raphael 2-0 last week and needed extra innings to get past last place East Providence.
And then there's the fact that baseball is an inherently funny game. Upsets can happen, particularly if you've got an ace. Hendricken head coach Ed Holloway always talks about how you've got to be lucky.
But I'm not really buying any of this. Can anybody beat the Hawks? I know the right answer is yes.
I just think the real answer might be no.

Kitty Wells Dies: Country Stars Pay Tribute
Kitty Wells did almost as much for country music as the guitar and fiddle. The Queen of Country died on Monday at the age of 92 after complications from a recent stroke. Wells was not only a major hitmaker in the '50s and '60s, but she was the first female country singer with a voice that the mostly male-dominated industry stepped aside and respected.
Her 1952 hit 'It Wasn't God Who Made Honky Tonk Angels' was a fiery answer to Hank Thompson's 'Wild Side of Life.' The song was banned for a short time at NBC radio and the Grand Ole Opry, but eventually became the first song from a female artist to top the charts.
Needless to say, women in Nashville today owe Wells a show of gratitude, and many -- like Martina McBride, Kellie Pickler and Sunny Sweeney -- said thank you on Twitter this week. Men of country, of course, paid tribute to the late singer as well.
Sad to hear of the passing of the Queen of Country, Kitty Wells.

My heart cries over the loss of Ms Kitty Wells. She is and always will be the true Queen of Country Music.

10 Worst Time Wasters at Work

Culprit #3: Meandering Meetings
"Meetings about meetings." You know the kind –- you get together for an hour and all you end up with is a list of what should be discussed in yet another meeting. Sure, staff meetings are an essential part of the hospital; you need to check up on each other after all. But if run poorly, they can be a colossal waste of time.
The solution: Meetings should have a purpose; a set of tangible goals you want to accomplish. This should be realized by tackling a set agenda, which should be distributed to attendees before the meeting starts. Stay focused on the task at hand. If there are visual aides, have them set up and ready to go before the group enters the room. Finally, make sure you really need a meeting: if what you have to say can be just as easily shared in an email to the group, why get people up and away from their work?

2006 Holiday Gift Guide: Sony PlayStation 3
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Features, Video Games, Men, Techies, Teens
The Sony PLAYSTATION 3 is build around the company's much-hyped Cell processor, a 3.2-GHz chip that packs some serious processing power. The cell is what powers the PS3's 1080p True HD output, alongside a 500-MHz nVidia graphics processor. The more expensive version also packs in WiFi, multimedia card readers, and silver trim. The SIXAXIS controller has a new input interface that is rotation and acceleration sensitive, allowing you to control games through movement (but without force-feedback.) Lastly, the PS3 has Blu-Ray built-in, so with the purchase you also get a high definition video player as well. Sure, at $600 USD it sounds expensive, but compare that to a $1000+ standalone Blu-Ray player, and the PS3 doesn't look so bad after all.

Media Statements & Speeches
Commissioner John R. Norris Statement
December 20, 2012
Docket Nos. RM12-6-000 & RM12-7-000
Item Nos. E-5
Revised Definition of Bulk Electric System
I consider the process that led to todays Final Rule to be a success story in our ongoing efforts to improve the process of developing and implementing mandatory reliability standards under section 215 of the Federal Power Act.
While speed is relative, it is worth noting that in about two years, we have moved from Order No. 743, which directed NERC to revise its definition of bulk electric system, to todays Final Rule. In that time, NERC conducted an industry stakeholder process, the Commission issued a NOPR on the results of that process, we analyzed numerous comments on that NOPR, and today we issue a Final Rule on NERCs proposal.
The end result is a Final Rule that overwhelmingly approves the work of NERC and industry stakeholders in crafting the new bulk electric system definition. This shows that when FERC and NERC work together, clearly define goals and expectations, and avoid surprises, a quality product can result.
With respect to the substance of todays Final Rule, I note that there are two narrow instances in this order where the Commission reserves to itself a direct role in defining the bulk electric system. Specifically, the draft Final Rule concludes that, where necessary, questions of fact regarding whether a facility is used in local distribution (and thus excluded from the bulk electric system under section 215) should be resolved directly by the Commission, rather than through NERCs exceptions process. In addition, the draft Final Rule finds that the Commission has authority under section 215 to act on its own to designate facilities for inclusion in the bulk electric system if it deems that such action is necessary.
As I have said many times, I believe the FERC-NERC construct works best when FERC sets the overall policy direction, and leaves the day-to-day implementation of the mandatory reliability standards regime to NERC, the Regional Entities and industry. These two portions of the Final Rule, in some measure, deviate from this framework. However, in both instances we emphasize that direct Commission action should be rare. I support these two aspects of todays Final Rule, but hope that we will monitor them in practice to ensure that they do not interfere or conflict with the overall FERC-NERC working relationship.

When credit union advocates battled three bills in the Oregon legislature, Advantis Credit Union put on its combat gear.
And thanks to individual credit unions and the Northwest Credit Union Association the measures were halted in committee. The proposals would have required credit unions to file more paperwork, put them under the Community Reinvestment Act, and added a corporate excise tax to state-chartered credit unions with more than 10% of assets or $250,000 in business loans.
The campaign to kill the legislation was waged in the media as well as in legislative hallways. In an interview in The Portland Business Journal, Advantis President/CEO Bob Corwin explained, "I have been involved with credit unions since 1977, and I can honestly say there has never been a time during that period that we have not had to defend ourselves from some kind of banking industry attack."
What enabled credit unions to halt the bills? Probably a combination of things, Corwin told Credit Union Times.
"I don't know how receptive to these bills the legislature was to begin with," he said. "They are similar arguments to what we have had to combat in the past. Through the Northwest Credit Union Association, we have a very strong grassroots effort already in place. We have good relationships with a lot of our legislators, and we have a lot of activism among the credit unions. When something like this comes up we are able to address it fairly well."
Even with victories like that, Corwin believes there's still a need to build better understanding of what credit unions have to offer.
"Market share has not grown significantly," he said. At Advantis, "we are trying to do things within our community. We have what we call our Grow Fund. We get out into the community, solicit grant applications from nonprofits, then evaluate those applications and put it out to our membership to select the actual programs we will give money to. We want to be as active and visible in our community as we can."
Advantis just joined the Billionaires Club, and is now Oregon's fourth-largest credit union. The credit union has won recognition for value provided to members. That's a challenge at a time when spreads are thin.
Corwin explained the credit union is always conscious of operating expenses and tries to run efficiently. There's also very good participation by members, who award the credit union an attractive share of wallet.
In addition, "We take advantage of some balance sheet management tools," he added. "We utilize things such as participation loans to increase yields. I think we've just been able to operate efficiently and return more as a percentage back to our membership."
The legacy membership at Advantis includes county employees, public transportation workers and Portland General Electric. They haven't been as affected by layoffs as many other groups, but even so, financial planning offered by Advantis has enjoyed fairly steady growth. Members who have been affected by the recession can turn to the credit union for financial counseling.
Members can also take advantage of a mortgage rehabilitation program. Corwin describes it as a niche product. He explained that a couple of the credit union's branches are in older parts of town currently undergoing gentrification. Mortgage rehabilitation allows someone to buy a home that has deferred maintenance and get the funds they need to complete the necessary work.
Thanks to tight pockets at other financial institutions, Advantis has attracted business loans, especially smaller commercial loans. A typical loan provides office and retail space, with some industrial.
"The percentage we have in each category is fairly well-distributed, with about 20% of our business loans in office and retail space," Corwin indicated. "We're split about half and half between member business loans and participation business loans. We believe that gives us additional diversification outside this geographic area so we're not as dependent on local economies."
Advantis membership is also diversified.
"Working class to maybe upper middle income are the members we seem to be attracting. We find we do have a challenge in attracting membership unless we have a physical presence, a branch. We're obviously still influenced by our legacy membership. Police departments and that kind of thing still make up a large percentage of our members. There has been a cutback in government spending, so obviously in today's economy with two-income households if one job is okay there may be changes in the other spouse's position," Corwin said.
After graduating from Portland State University with a major in business administration, Corwin joined what is now First Tech Credit Union, where he remained until 2008. Then he accepted a position with Meritrust Credit Union in Kansas. He remained there until 2012, when he became president/CEO of Advantis.
Married with three grown children and two grandchildren, Corwin often spends evenings at community events. He enjoys golfing and camping, and declares he couldn't find a better place for camping than his native Oregon.

Copa del Rey: Real Sociedad 1 Barcelona 1
Lionel Messi equalled another record as Barcelona overcame Real Sociedad 3-1 on aggregate to set up a Clasico Copa del Rey final.
Leading 2-0 from the first leg, Barcelona's passage into the showpiece was never in doubt after Messi made early pressure count with a run from the halfway line that ended with him finding the net for the 335th time in his Barcelona career.
The 26-year-old moved level with the figure set by Athletic Bilbao's Telmo Zarra for scoring the most goals for a single Spanish club.
Antoine Griezmann grabbed an equaliser on the night to preserve Sociedad's pride, but they were unable to reach a first Copa final since 1988, where Barca will face Liga title rivals Real Madrid.
Gerardo Martino's side welcomed back the previously suspended Javier Mascherano and Jordi Alba, but they had little to do early on as Barcelona dominated and an in-swinging cross from Andres Iniesta was on a plate for a Pedro tap-in but Jose Angel's acrobatic clearance prevented a certain goal.
Sociedad's first sight of goal came after 15 minutes when Sergio Busquets' headed clearance only reached David Zurutuza, whose volley flashed wide.
Martino's side showed an uncharacteristically direct side to their play 20 minutes in as Dani Alves hit a dipping effort from distance, forcing Enaut Zubikarai into a smart save.
Jose Angel made the grave error of giving the ball away after 26 minutes and was punished by the genius of Messi.
The Argentinian surged from the centre circle, evading the attention of five players before lashing a shot in that squirmed past the desperate Zubikarai who got a touch on it – but not enough to keep the ball out.
Pedro almost added a second when Cesc Fabregas's beautiful lobbed pass sent him clear but his volley was saved.
At the other end, Carlos Vela went close but Pinto got something on his weak shot and Alves mopped up the danger.
Sociedad made seven changes from their weekend draw with Levante and it showed as Barcelona continued to dominate. Iniesta played a sumptuous one-two with Messi after 52 minutes and the Spaniard's shot flashed just wide.
The hosts could have been level on the night moments later through Vela whose turn and shot outside the area on the right crashed back off the crossbar.
Only a terrific double save prevented Barcelona after 55 minutes when Fabegras played a lovely slide rule ball to Messi. His shot was blocked by Zubikarai and the goalkeeper made a wonder sprawling save to deny the follow-up from Fabregas.
Sociedad scored a late equaliser - their first goal in three games - when Gonzalo Castro's first time cross was met by Griezmann who lashed emphatically past Pinto.
Barcelona will meet Madrid in the showpiece - as they did in 2011 when the capital club overcame their great rivals 1-0 after extra time.

Yes, adjective avalanches are alive and well- BtB, GE, 3TB and all different types of Gorean sims.
Then again, I think so much of Gorean roleplay is inherently comedic (especially the self-professed "realistic BtB" sims). I really do think slaves get the best roleplay because they have so many more interesting ways to play with the weird pedagogy of Gorean roleplay.

Everyone who has ever been exposed to a science book or an episode of Star Trek is keenly aware that it is entirely possible that a giant rock could collide with the Earth and quite possibly kill everyone on the planet.
Paleontologists' best guess about what caused dinosaurs to become extinct some 65 million years ago is that it was the result of a massive asteroid collision. Astronomers have maintained that such a collision was remote but possible. No need to worry. We'd be fine.
And then, last month, a meteor exploded over Russia, showering the country with fragments that destroyed buildings and injured 500 people. This was paired with news that a giant asteroid was scheduled to pass by Earth, safely, thank goodness, because it was big enough to do some damage. (A quick science lesson: an asteroid is a space rock. A meteor is a space rock that is rushing through our atmosphere and burning up. A shooting star is a meteor.)
Suddenly we were aware, as if for the first time, that we should probably keep an eye on asteroids headed our way. Russia, justifiably spooked, proposed international cooperation to monitor asteroids and to develop a method of pushing asteroids away from our atmosphere if and when one comes too close.
NASA began talking about the methods it would use to avoid an asteroid collision. Better to land on the asteroid and use a rocket to push it out of the way. Destroying it would just send a lot of smaller asteroids in motion (something I already knew from playing Asteroids as a kid). NASA recommended developing these plans further.
And that's the way it always is. We never plan until it's too late. It usually takes a bad thing to happen before we plan to avert the next one. From the minor to the major, it's as if we can't imagine the scenario in which disaster might strike, even when all our data tells us otherwise.
The only place this principle appears to work in reverse is in political rhetoric. On cable news and in the halls of Congress, the sky is always falling. From the doomsday of the Fiscal Cliff to the certain annihilation of the the Sequester, the end is always near on Capitol Hill.
Perhaps that's why Congress continues to get so little done. It's so busy watching the sky for asteroids that it has launched itself, it can't see the real ones. It can't see that arming the country will make it more dangerous or that falling to check pollution is altering the environment in ways that scientists worry are irreversible.
For us to take notice of those issues, we apparently need to get hit by something. Issac Newton got off easily, but I'm worried about the next one.

Product: Psyllium Husks Powder
great stuff
by hoff on May 11, 2016
Product: Organic Psyllium Husks Whole
The powder was not satisfactory as a laxative, so I sent it to my sister who has celiac and I expect that it would be great for baking.
The whole is what works for me as a laxative, I like it a lot! Now that I know which works for me I will be reordering the whole every time.
The nomenclature is confusing. Early on I had ordered (from a competitor) whole seeds, which indeed were whole seeds and I had to grind them in a coffee mill which was just too much work. Anyway what ever the reason there should be more explanation because to me this whole is not whole but rather a medium grind or some such.
But I do like the product a great deal. It does not thicken too fast and produces enough volume to produce a good stool.

Coulson did make a tough call. Way too tough. In fact that might be one of the many many many reasons Agent May asked to be assigned field work - to prevent whatever Coulson is from making the same mistake again.
I'll +1 the Legend's assessment on the full series. I'm looking forward to some series plot twists and turns now.

AHL Game Night: 2-15-13 Crunch at Senators
Jon Cooper must be a Jedi.
Riku Helenius (pictured) allowed 1 goal on 34 shots for the victory. His season save percentage is still languishing at .885, but he's only allowed 1 goal over his last 2 starts and has stopped 56 of 57 shots in that span. There's not a huge opening for Helenius, but with Tokarski gone, if he can take the #1 job in Syracuse and run with it for a great second half and a deep playoff run, he could set himself up to the NHL.
First Period
SYR Connolly, (20) (Tyrell), 3:51 (PP)
SYR Wyman, (7) (Gudas), 5:36
SYR Hutchings, (1) (Angelidis, Cote), 8:12
SYR Wyman, (8) , 11:03 (SH)
Second Period
SYR Labrie, (9) , 12:55
BNG Prince, (10) (Cannone, Lebda), 16:18 (PP)
Third Period
SYR Wyman, (9) (Connolly, Barberio), 4:40
SYR Tyrell, (2) (Wyman, Gudas), 19:23 (PP)
J.T. Wyman, Brett Connolly, and Helenius were the game's three stars.
Connolly becomes the third Crunch player to hit 20 goals this season (Johnson and Panik). Dana Tyrell has 3 points in 3 games since being sent down to the AHL. After posting two straight multi-point games, Radko Gudas is just 3 points shy of his pro high in points. He's also 6 PIMs shy of his pro high in penalty minutes, too, for that matter.
Entering the night, Binghamton was tied for the top spot in the Eastern Conference, and Syracuse just smashed them after destroying Albany 6-0 on Wednesday night. Whatever voodoo potion Jon Cooper employed to not only weather all the call ups, the trade of his #1 goaltender, and the lineup shuffling, but to start annihilating teams in the midst of it all, he needs to Fedex a supply to Guy Boucher.
Syracuse draws Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Sunday.

The problem I have with the whole Gaddafi saga is that the Libya I know can scarcely repair a drain or install a working lavatory in a hotel.
Yet this same Libya, after years of sanctions, was apparently making a nuclear bomb. Libyan nuclear scientists. Say those three words over and over again. Really? And what was that odd word in the Downing Street announcement? "Programmes'? Wasn't that exactly what Mr Blair accused Iraq of developing after the weapons of mass destruction he had told us all about turned out to be non-existent? According to the usual anonymous "US officials' who daily grace the front pages of American newspapers, Libya had not actually acquired a nuclear bomb but was "close to developing one'. But what does that mean? How close is close? A year? Ten years? Some time?
Of course, Gaddafi used to be fascinated by weapons. Like the dictator in Auden's wonderful poem, "The poetry he invented was easy to understand… he was greatly interested in armies and fleets".
I remember the crazed, sticky evenings in Tripoli when the wretched man would celebrate his own revolution with a seven-hour military parade, tank after tank, missile after missile, not one of which was ever used. There was even a 300-strong squad of black-suited frogmen who would march panting past us in the stifling midnight heat in snorkels, their giant flippers sticking to the hot Tarmac.
And I can believe that among the vast, useless armada of clapped-out Soviet-era tanks and sand-dusted Sukhois and MiG-23s that litter Libya's vast and largely unmaintained military bases, there are some old chemical shells.
Rabta has been the centre of a thousand stories based on "intelligence sources" – close relatives of "US officials "- who have credited the factory there as a producer of biological agents, chemicals, centrifuges and other nasties. But who exactly were all these weapons – or programmes – designed to erase from the face of the Earth? Egypt? Sicily? Algeria? And if they were to be sold to "terrorists", which ones did Gaddafi have in mind? Were they going to be sold off to the IRA when the best Gaddafi could do for the latter was a boatload of old guns that got followed by the Royal Navy? Or to the Islamic extremists whom Gaddafi had been executing with Saddam-like brutality in his own country – but for whom of course there will be no opening of mass graves. That he supplied details of Al-Qa'ida operatives to us wouldn't be surprising. They are as much a danger to Gaddafi as they were to Saddam; only that's not quite the story that being written for us.
No indeed. Far from being another despotic little killer, Colonel Gaddafi is now, according to Jack Straw, "statesmanlike and courageous'. And as long as Mr Blair complains that the whole miserable circus in Iraq persuaded Gaddafi to disarm – even though the Libyans totally deny this – then all the lies told to us by the Prime Minister about Saddam's 45-minute threat can be forgotten. Or so he must hope.
Gaddafi the statesman. The Arabs themselves will ponder this new Strawism with awe. Even President Mubarak of Egypt – a patient man if ever there was one – could voice his irritation with the tiresome Libyan whose vanguard of militia cuties were freighted around the world to guard their seedy boss.
He once turned up in Belgrade with a white charger upon which he planned to ride in triumph through the Serbian capital to the non-aligned conference. Yugoslav officials vetoed the horse but allowed him to pitch a tent in front of one of Belgrade's biggest hotels in which he would drink fresh milk from three massive dromedaries specially flown into the city. And this is our new "statesman".

Hello everyone,
and welcome to our German Word of the Day. And it's time for another one fo those words that people use every day but that are kind of below the radar when it comes to learning vocab. Today we'll look at the meaning of
Überhaupt consists of the two parts über and Haupt. Über is a preposition and for those little fellows there is never THE ONE translation… but über is quite consistent as it means over most of the time. Not always!!! Just making sure :). Now let's take a second or two to look at Haupt .Überhaupt Haupt.
I think the one word with Haupt that most of you know is Hauptstadt which means capital . That makes sense because Haupt and capital are related. The original meaning of Haupt however is head. That makes sense because they are related. And there are other wor… Wait what? Haupt is related to capital AND head . That means that capital is related to head ???? That's … uhm… unexpected. But then again, there is per capita income meaning per person income and the old Germanic keyboard has c and h right next to each other and they barely had spell checking… except for some shamans, maybe. Get it? Spell like magica… oh gee, you guys are soo serious all the time. So yeah, head, capital and Haupt are all related. And there are other words in that family. For instance to capture and capable . And there is cup . And.. uh… Kopf, which means head , too. Oh and to have . Uhm…. yeah… let me get this straight… to have, head, capital and cup are related???What the kopf? But as crazy as it sounds… it is true. All those words come from themega ancient Indo-European root *kap – which expressed the idea of to grasp and hold. If you have something you kind of hold it, and of course a cup holds its content. And that's also how the word head or Haupt connects. The skull looks like an empty bowl.That's it. The Indo-Europeans were quite practical people. All the abstract ideas of thought and understanding came in later. But enough with the history … let's get back to the present.

Spanish version available here.
Given the ongoing political, economic, social, and humanitarian crisis in Venezuela, in early June CSIS convened a small group of experts to identify the major drivers of possible future scenarios for the crisis. The small group undertook a half-day exercise to identify the most important determinants of Venezuela's future and to imagine four possible scenarios, or "alternate futures" based on those key drivers. [1]
The exercise concluded that the two major drivers that will influence the outcome of the crisis are the degree of internal stability that the regime can maintain and the degree and type of external pressure or assistance the regime receives from key international actors. The following are four potential scenarios for Venezuela's future, listed in no particular order of likelihood. Each of these transitions would have major impacts on the "Day After" challenges facing the country.
Scenario Number 1: A Soft Landing—Opposition Ideology and Chavismo Live Together
The "Soft Landing" scenario is the product of successful, increased international and regional pressure, coupled with the consolidation of opposition forces into a cohesive unit. In this scenario, the regional and international community gets its act together and unifies around specific actions designed to pressure the regime and force a transition. These include individual U.S. sanctions, replicated regionally, and efforts to support the political opposition and key institutions like the National Assembly.
In this scenario, the constituent assembly is rejected when President Nicolás Maduro's "inner circle" splits, along with noncorrupted elements of the security forces and private-sector elites, forcing a peaceful transition. The defection of this group of Chavistas, which represents the last of his popular support (currently hovering at about 11 percent ), creates the conditions for a needed path toward the coexistence of the opposition and a significant portion of former Chavistas. While Chavismo will remain part of Venezuela's cultural, economic, and political identity, many of the Chavistas in the country, having lost faith in Maduro's government, will accept a managed transition that also offers them some protection.
The split within Maduro's inner circle and the establishment of a stable and united political opposition leads to credible elections under a new National Electoral Council (CNE), monitored by the Organization of American States (OAS) and other observers and backed by a Supreme Tribunal of Justice (TSJ) with new members selected in accord with the current Constitution. The international community will be able to recognize a new (democratically elected) leadership and provide humanitarian, economic, financial, and judicial assistance to rebuild the country and its many crippled institutions. Freedom of the press, debt restructuring, humanitarian and health relief, anticorruption mechanisms, and institutional reforms are only a few examples of the potential benefits. In addition, some of the Venezuelan diaspora and their investments will return.
