Alex McGuire
Arundel, It hasn't taken McGuire long to show all the different layers in her game. Playing guard last year, she set a program mark with 349 points as a freshman. Asked to play closer to the basket at forward this season, the 5-foot-9 standout showed she could hold her own there as well.
Stopping McGuire from getting to the basket proved the toughest assignment in the county this winter. She averaged 18 points and 7.8 rebounds, saving her best moments for when they were needed most in leading the Wildcats to the top of the county standings as well as a sixth Class 4A state tournament appearance.

The Daley Show
Why outreach to business is not an automatic winner
ONE OF THE least fortunate aspects of President Obama's first two years in office was the emergence of a bitter split between the White House and the business community. Policy disagreements between companies and presidents are neither new nor inherently harmful; economic growth does not require any administration to do business's bidding, nor does corporate America need to kowtow to Washington. But there should be a certain minimum of comity, and that had all but broken down by the end of the 2010 election campaign— during which business leaders sought payback for the alleged regulatory and rhetorical excesses of Democrats by financing Republicans, and the White House political operation demonized the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
Though both sides were responsible for the falling-out, Mr. Obama has taken the initiative in ending it. In word and deed, he has tried to show skeptics that he understands the job-creating role of a robust private sector. Especially encouraging examples include his embrace of a free-trade pact with South Korea and his proposal Thursday to allow Mexican long-haul cargo trucks on American highways, a provision of the North American Free Trade Agreement that promised to make shipping more efficient but which has been thwarted in deference to the Teamsters union.
The appointment of William M. Daley, a JP Morgan Chase executive and Clinton commerce secretary, as chief of staff may be the grandest symbol of White House business-friendliness yet. Chamber President Thomas J. Donohue could barely contain his excitement, calling it "a strong appointment." In elevating Mr. Daley, who had publicly chided Mr. Obama for catering to " the left" — and who had predicted the electoral disaster for Democrats that then ensued — Mr. Obama demonstrated a laudable willingness to accept aid and advice from erstwhile critics.
For those who have worried about the absence of private-sector experience in Mr. Obama's White House or Cabinet, it's important to remember what kind of a businessman Bill Daley is. Able as he is, he has never, to our knowledge, started or built a major company of his own. Rather, he has served big, heavily regulated corporations — JP Morgan Chase, Boeing, Fannie Mae — by lobbying and otherwise helping manage what executives euphemistically call "political risk." That is, Mr. Daley embodies the nexus between big business and big government.
That may be ideal preparation for restoring relations between the corporate sector andWashington. But the corporate sector is not synonymous with free enterprise. What remains to be seen is whether Mr. Daley or the president — who will ultimately set policy — can help create an environment for American capitalism to be more flexible, dynamic and efficient, so that entrepreneurs as well as incumbent firms may take risks, flourish and create jobs. That is the kind of change that the economy desperately needs.

OK, been at this for a few years now and "knew what I was doing". Every year my CYA is low and it takes about 3 lbs to get to the level I need. Didn't test this year, just added 3 lbs. In short, CYA is higher than I wanted, right at 100. Don't usually cover my pool, keep the leaves and such out, but it usually gets pretty green every year (and cleans up beautifully). Never been a problem... just balance, pour the chlorine to it and filter, filter, filter. Was taking the same approach this year. It's a little harder this year because of my CYA level. pH is 7.5. T/A is right at 90.
I've got the TF-100 test kit. Chlorine should be high (55ppm ish), but when I test and add the DPD, it goes light pinkish for a few moments and then back clear. If I start adding the FAS/DPD drops, it will turn a little pink and with enough drops, back to clear. But if I continue with the CC test, it is registering 10 - 15. Never seen those kind of CC levels. It's almost like my kit has been pranked.
Also, added a 1/2 cup of DE to my skimmer to help with the filtering (new sand last year). In the past, I needed to backwash often when I first started this process. I'm not getting much increase in pressure at all.
I'm still a nice dark green, which is really surprising given my chlorine levels. Is the CYA just too high to let the chlorine work?

Is the Seahawks Era of NFL dominance finally over? Some may chuckle at the very suggestion that one even existed, but it can now be safely said that it is, after a second-straight humiliating performance by the offence, this time against the Rams—who lost 28-0 last week—in a 9-3 defeat. Russell Wilson almost led another "miracle" late-game drive to win the game, and I do mean "miracle"; but this time the opponent's defense didn't fall down before the "mystique" of Wilson. Seahawk fans must ask themselves if the quarterback who is being paid $22 million a year is really at the "elite" level that such a salary suggests. Well, fine, he took you to two Super Bowls, and you actually won one of them, thanks to one of the most dominant defensive efforts in Super Bowl history. Maybe you can consider that money "back pay."
But how much are you going to blame Wilson's bad ankle (if it is still injured) for inferior offensive output, or admit that NFL defenses have finally caught-up to him, like they did Kaepernick and RG3? After all, the guy is short by NFL quarterback standards. Of course, it would be wrong to write-off the team completely; I thought the Seahawks would finish no better than 9-7 and be a one-and-done in the playoffs, and they won 10 games and a playoff game, albeit after a botched chip-shot field goal attempt at Minnesota. But Michael Bennett's cheap-shot on the kneel-down as the seconds ticked-away just reminded me again why I dislike this team (another being that I'm a long-time Packer fan).
Chargers 38 Jaguars 14 The only reason I would be interested in the result of this game is because I'm still waiting to see if any of these former Wisconsin Badger running backs will turn out to be any good. Michael A. Bennett seemed to be on pace for a decent career with the Vikings, gaining 1,296 yards rushing in his second season, but injuries sealed his rapid demise. After a failed career with the Giants, Heisman Trophy winner Ron Dayne had his best season with the Texans in 2007, but as a free agent in 2008 not one team in the NFL showed any interest in him. Montee Ball set the NCAA Division I record for career touchdowns scored, but he lasted but two seasons in the NFL; he is currently serving a 60-day prison sentence for battery back in Wisconsin.
Melvin Gordon, who gained 2,587 yards in 14 games as a Badger in 2014, is trying to break the jinx. His rookie season with the Chargers was no great shakes, not even scoring a single touchdown, but this season he has already scored 3 touchdowns in two games, and rushed for 102 yards in the victory against the Jaguars. Fantasy experts seem to think he is good for 900 yards this season. We'll see.
Falcons 35 Raiders 28 Matt Ryan had another big day statistically, throwing for 396 yards and 3 TDs. That's not a surprise. What is a "surprise" is that the Falcon defense has allowed 800 yards in two games. Why should that be a "surprise"? Because the Falcons hired Dan Quinn, former defensive coordinator of the Seahawks, to "fix" that problem. Obviously you can't be a head coach and defensive "genius" at the same time in this league. Just ask Rex Ryan.
Broncos 34 Colts 20 Football is a funny game. Andrew Luck had an awful game, throwing for just 197 yards on 21 of 40 passes, much less impressive than his first-year counterpart. Yet this game could easily have turned out with a different result, although again, Luck was the principle culprit. Both of Luck's turnovers—an interception and a fumble—were returned for touchdowns. But that is just the "Luck" of the draw, as they say.
Cardinals 40 Buccaneers 7 Having all off-season to rest his tired body has done wonders for Carson Palmer. Despite the fact that he hadn't won a single playoff game in 12 seasons until last season, we shouldn't sell him too short; after all, Warren Moon had a "Hall of Fame" career and didn't do squat in the playoffs during his NFL career, the most notable moment being that epic meltdown against the Bills when the Oilers blew a 35-3 third quarter lead. Meanwhile, after a fine opening-day performance , Jameis Wilson was ineffective from start to finish, throwing four interceptions and losing a fumble. But not to worry; no one will be comparing him to Mark Sanchez. I wonder why.
Steelers 24 Bengals 16 I've noted before that Andy Dalton can put-up big numbers, and for the second straight week he threw for 366 passing yards. But as in the case of Matt Ryan and Russell Wilson, one wonders to what effect; Dalton has thrown only two TD passes in two games. Still, 39 points in two games is still slightly more "impressive" than 15 points in two games, which most people who call at a level not seen since the 1991 Colts, whose 143 points were fewest scored in a 16-game schedule. Now what team this season has scored the fewest points through the first two games? Oh, damn, I'm getting too "excited" here. That would be the Rams, whose kicker has scored all nine of their points.
Titans 16 Lions 15 Here is a recipe for victory. Put together just two decent drives that end in touchdowns, and hope that your opponent reverts to form from previous years. That is how the Titans somehow beat the Lions in Detroit. Once more, the Lions blew a big early lead as they often do, but unlike last week, Matthew Stafford remembered what he was supposed to do whenever he had a big lead: take a nap for most of the third and fourth quarter, then wake-up just in time to throw a game-losing interception.
Ravens 25 Browns 20 Unbelievably, the Browns opened the game with 20-0 first quarter lead. And without Robert Griffin III, who is out for a while with that shoulder injury. Could it be that RG3 was holding a talented team back? After scoring three touchdowns on their first three possessions, the Browns did the following: punt, punt, interception, punt, punt, missed field goal, punt, interception. I hear that Michael Vick is still looking for a job.
Cowboys 27 Redskins 23 How the world turns. After the Cowboys opened with a 10-0 lead, the Redskins dominated the Cowboys for two-and-a-half quarters and were poised to put the game away in the fourth quarter, leading 23-20 with a first down at the Cowboy six-yard line. But when you don't have much of a recent history of competitive play, you should expect bad things to happen, like after an interception in the end zone, leading to an 80-yard game-losing TD drive.
Giants 16 Saints 13 Fun facts: In 1985, the Giants Phil Simms threw for 513 yards in a game against the Bengals, and threw for only one touchdown pass. The following year, the 49ers Joe Montana threw for 441 yards and no touchdowns in a 14-6 loss to the Redskins. Thus Eli Manning throwing for 368 yards leading to not a single offensive touchdown scored can't be counted among the worst yards-to-touchdown ratio in NFL history. After all, the Seahawks have scored only one touchdown all season.
Panthers 46 49ers 27 Look, Blaine Gabbert was mediocre and the 49ers rushing game even worse, yet they put-up 27 points against a pretty good Panther defense. What happened? Well, the 49ers defense is not as good as advertised, allowing over 500 yards to Cam Newton and company. Newton isn't the most accurate passer in the league, but when you throw the ball ten yards past the line of scrimmage on a regular basis, that tends to make-up for accuracy deficiencies.
Patriots 31 Dolphins 24 The Patriots actually led this game 24-0 in the second quarter and 31-3 in the third quarter, and then hung on for dear life after quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo went down. The Dolphins certainly could have done without four turnovers, but they are not a good team anyways, and as things stand now, the Pats are still in first place in their division without Tom Brady. But now things get a little interesting, with Jacoby Brissett, a rookie out of North Carolina State, the apparent starting quarterback for the next two games. Now we'll see what kind of genius Bill Belichick is.
Texans 19 Chiefs 12 A blah game. Alex Smith came back down to earth, and the Chiefs' secondary couldn't seem to figure out that if they kept tabs on DeAndre Hopkins and Will Fuller, Brock Osweiller would look like someone who isn't in the league anymore. But the Texans are 2-0; the rest of their division is 1-5.
Jets 37 Bills 31 Rex Ryan fired his offensive coordinator after he appeared in the team photo session; maybe Rex should have fired himself or his defensive coordinator instead (his brother?). Ryan Fitzpatrick threw for 374 yards against his old team as the Jets piled-up nearly 500 yards of total offense. Tyrod Taylor, who threw the ball a few yards down the field a few times this time, but was injured in the game, and now Rex can examine his current "options."
Vikings 17 Packers 14 Saving the worst for last. Truth-be-told, Aaron Rodgers has not looked like the "elite" quarterback he allegedly is since Week 3 of last season against the Chiefs. The last time he threw for 300 yards in a game was in a Week 9 loss at home against the Lions, and he threw 61 passes in that game. Rodgers used to be the kind of quarterback who regularly could toss the ball all over the field when called upon, but that seems ages ago now. The great pass catchers that began their careers with Brett Favre are gone, and while Jordy Nelson did catch one deep ball in this game, he clearly is not a No. 1-level receiver, if he ever was. How to explain the five sacks? Is it a deficient offensive line, or is Rodgers just not finding open receivers? If I was concerned about the Packers last week, that goes double after this inexcusable defeat.

OMSK, May 05. /ITAR-TASS/. The governor of Russia's Omsk region, Viktor Nazarov, has excluded the American fast food chain McDonald's from the list of the region's major investment projects, the regional administration told ITAR-TASS on Monday as there were 38 projects left on the list instead of 42.
Nazarov has had plans for reconsidering the local government-supported financial projects long ago. McDonald's used to be one of them, for it was earlier supported by certain high officials.
"As a patriot of my country, I am against spreading McDonald's products in the Omsk region. We are not going to lease this American network any working space", Nazarov said, stressing that McDonald's is just an ordinary fast food company, so there is no point in providing it with any favorable and beneficial conditions.
Earlier, at the turn of 2013 and 2014 the local authorities promised the fast food network an opportunity to choose out of ten trading facilities, located mostly in the center of Omsk. However, the situation has drastically changed, as the governor of the 1.2-million city said McDonald's would be given no preferences any more.
"May they develop the network on their own. It is now their responsibility to find an appropriate working space and sign leasing contracts. We have changed the format of our relations with them", Nazarov added.

A part of the solution to the illiquidity now savaging the mortgage market, adding to the woes created by subprime and beginning to infect the prime market, virtually is being ignored.
It doesn't take and act of Congress, merely a decision by the White House that there's less grief in going this route than hoping that the market smoothes itself out, and the sudden lender and investor failures, stop occurring.
The relief can come over night and in ways that the mortgage market and the broader debt markets understand and welcome.
The Administration should make the decision to take its political hand cuffs from Fannie Mae's and Freddie Mac's business operations and encourage the companies to pour billions of dollars of liquidity into he market, before more carnage occurs. In other words, let the GSEs do what they do best, until the market rights itself.
Unless the White House has a better answer, the nation's mortgage market, and indeed the slumping economy, can only benefit if Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are directed to go into crisis mode and are directed--in a major way--to purchase thousands and thousands of mortgage loans from originators and smaller investors, providing those less stable institutions with instant cash relief and keeping them out of financial "emergency room," or worse—funeral homes!
Yes, Virginia, the GSEs then would keep the loans in portfolio or sell them to other investors. But that would be far safer regulatory move than a possible mortgage market meltdown, because the two companies are better able than virtually anyone else to manage those interest rate and credit risks explicit in mortgages.
Sure, there will be deals and "haircuts" (premiums, discounts and price cuts) all along the way, but it will be "the market" making those accommodations, not HUD in some bulky government plan or the Fed and Treasury suddenly pumping cash into one or more of the large investment banks or money center institutions, when it shockingly and without warning taps out on some sultry mid-week afternoon. And, GSE relief can flow quickly and efficiently, the minute the Bush Administration gives the word.
Why Wait?
Remember folks, "a stitch in time!"
If you can believe "the squirrels," those chattering folks behind the scenes folks in DC, who spend their days exchanging stories and rumors, in return for more stories and rumors (one of the reasons why there are no secrets in DC), some mortgage interests already have approached OFHEO's "Two Gun" Lockhart suggesting an "emergency" increase in the GSE mortgage ceiling, to allow Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to provide liquidity for "non-conforming mortgages" (a term that historically has meant loans above the F/F mortgage ceiling). Others are wondering why "massive mortgage liquidity relief," for the traditional "A" markets and subprime, can't be provided by the two government sponsored enterprises, created for just that purposes.
Even Karen Shaw Petrou, an extremely capable financial services observer (and hardly a traditional friend of the GSEs), reportedly has speculated on Fannie and Freddie moving out of their historic "conforming" niche and--as an emergency gesture--helping provide liquidity to the aforementioned non-conforming lenders, with some tie back to the lenders providing relief to the subprime market. In a perverse way, the "systemic risk" facing
Leadership in Congress and Downtown
For Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, operationally, to provide all of the liquidity that the mortgage markets require, it will take a knowledgeable and motivated Bush Administration and an equally cooperating Congress, willing to stand up together and share some of the responsibility (and political reward) for calling on the GSEs to deliver this "liquidity Care Package," to lenders throughout the nation. It also will require that OFHEO work cooperatively with the companies and drop its institutional adversarial persona. (I wonder if TG and his handlers see the golden opportunity here for them.)
Someone, let's say the bi-partisan leadership of the Senate Banking Committee and the House Financial Services Committee, should communicate with the Treasury, OFHEO, and the Fed, and suggest—administratively—that the GSE regulator give Fannie and Freddie "a mortgage purchase green light," through the end of 2007, to provide the liquidity that the mortgage markets demands (conforming and no-conforming).
The broader economy, as well as the mortgage sector, can be monitored--regularly-- during that time to see if markets have calmed and it's appropriate to go back to the buttoned-up Fannie and Freddie, or if more GSE purchases are required.
Congress is gone for the summer, but it doesn't require passing a law to accomplish the necessary complementary effort I've described, just a top staff driven letter, on the appropriate letterhead, blessed by the four congressional principals.
The Democrats run Congress, not the GOP. Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Ct.) and Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) might not want to wait for their GOP colleagues to sign up, if they think the action makes sense.
A thoughtful Bush Administration also should realize that the two GSEs are easier to oversee for possible "post-purchase surge" problems (since OFHEO has staff living in both companies) than to tightly monitor a thousand lenders, real estate investment trusts, and Wall Street firms, any one (or more?) of which the Fed and Treasury might have to bail out, using the Long Term Capital Management precedent of "too big to fail."
Will a Timely Half Trillion Dollars of Liquidity Help?
I have no idea how big the "mortgage problems" might be and how much relief is necessary before the market settles, but let's assume that, together, Fannie and Freddie might have to bring $500 billion of help (that's a half trillion dollars). If you added that mortgage amount, proportionately, to the two companies portfolios, that only would increase the GSEs portfolios to where they were a few years ago, meaning that portfolio level is not without precedent.
Policy makers should make this change NOW, not after more major market carnage. Activating Fannie and Freddie is also the kind of thing that—following a disaster—some bipartisan commission will ask, "Why didn't the White House and Congress employ the GSEs to….?"
Someone should put the question to Chairman Bernanke, "Ben, should we let Fannie and Freddie try and let the air out of this mess, now, while there still is some calm in the market, or should we wait for one of the big investment banks to faint dead and then let you and Treasury try and put Humpty Dumpty back together?"
Is the White House creatively up to employing the GSEs to do what the companies were created to do, or will the Administration hold onto its political ax and risk some collapse in a crucial economic sector, only to call on the GSEs for help after housing hits the fan????
The proposition represents a very small downside and a huge upside for the economy and the country.

How does social media rank in influencing business technology purchase decisions?
According to a new study from Forrester Research, technology decision-makers actively participate in social media as it relates to their job.
However, the same research puts social media pretty far down the list of sources of information impacting purchase decision making process.
I've personally been searching for quantitative evidence of social media's impact on B2B leads and sales results. So the following statement in Forrester's press release about its new study caught my attention: "…social media has yet to effectively influence a large part of the technology buying process."
My friend, Dianna Huff, suggested I check out Laura Ramos' blog to see what she had to say about it. (Laura is vice president and principal analyst in Forrester's technology marketing research team.)
A link in Laura's blog led to a slide presentation addressing the study which included a survey of 1,217 technology decision makers at companies in North America and Europe with 100 or more employees.
Slide #20 addressed the survey question, "Which of the following sources of information impact your decision making process?" The answers were:
- Peers and colleagues – 84%
- Vendor, industry and trade Web sites – 69%
- Your direct vendor salesperson – 69%
- Technology or business magazines – 66%
- Consultants, VARs and SIs – 65%
- Industry trade shows or conferences (in person) – 59%
- Forums, online communities and social networks – 45%
- Industry analyst firms – 45%
- E-mail or electronic newsletters – 41%
- Web events or virtual trade shows – 40%
- Interactive media: podcasts, video, online demos – 30%
- Blogs – 24%
A story in eWeek about this research said, "…while business buyers may be using social networks and other tools in their enterprise and personal lives, Web 2.0 social technology isn't affecting their decisions when it comes to purchasing business solutions."

This is a very disjointed series, but I like to organize things!
I've been following a new series of posts by 4 different moms. It is called 4 Moms, 35 kids. This last week they all posted their ideas on grocery budgets and I loved their ideas and their completely different takes on the same topic. Go check them out!
Life in a Shoe - where I found out about the posts. I appreciated the reminder to get a basic price for an item that I'm willing to spend, and to buy in season produce. (although organic produce doesn't seem to change much in our area, guessing Safeway is not buying things local :)
Smockity Frocks - they don't have a specific grocery budget even though they feed 10 people. That's already helping me get over my desire to know an exact amount and stick to it.
The Common Room - I think this post was an answer to my prayer this morning. Kit Cat is VERY picky, and we don't like it. But it is hard to make... ah, lets fix that, allow a strong willed 1 1/2 year old to not eat because she won't eat anything but cheese and fruit. Won't even let it touch her lips. This post helped me to emotionally get behind my husbands sound advice of "When the cheese runs out, don't get anymore." A few favorite quotes:
we think too much about our favorites, about what we like instead of what we need, about what we 'feel like having' instead of what we have in our hands or what is in season, and we want what we want when we want it and feel sorry for ourselves when we can't have it.Being a picky eater displays a certain self centeredness, a focus on self and bodily comforts that I think hampers maturity as well as the ability to be content.
Raising Olives - As hospitality is something I would like to improve at, I especially noticed her practice of not including hospitality meals in the food budget. That way she feels free to get whatever she needs and not worry as much about the cost. This also instilled in me to try again to plan out breakfasts and lunches.

When Titanic first came out in theatres, I was ten years old. I don't know about kids nowadays but I was ten old years I was completely clueless about intimacy between two human beings, and it was probably the furthest thing from my mind back then.
Watching this movie in the theatres with my parents was a mindblowing and traumatizing experience. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about! Yes during this particular DRAWING scene, I turned my head frantically to see the people around me whether someone would cover my eyes or "turn off the screen", it was simply beyond awkward and embarassing to see Kate Winslet's boobies with my parents on my side. I mean it's still embarassing to watch a bed scene with your parents around, so imagine when you were 10... />
Kate Winslet is so perfect in this scene, I think any bum artist would have died happily after being able to draw a girl like that.
Right now I'm so excited to watch Titanic again, after 14 years!!! No matter how cheesy it is, it will certainly remain one of the most memorable movies of my prepubescent days. I'm ready to watch it again, without covering my eyes at the drawing scene nor panicking at the STEAMY HAND IN CAR SCENE (I thought Jack was murdering Rose and got so scared)

Not all weather related anecdotes are foreboding.
"Drink plenty of liquids" seems to have replaced 'an apple a day' as the proverbial health mantra.
Patti, for whatever reasons, has begun to consume less and less fluids over the last few years. Maybe dysphagia, or maybe a combination of symptoms, who knows? You need to consciously monitor her liquid intake.
The other night at her care facility I could only laugh at an exchange between Patti and medication nurse over bedtime meds.
Nurse: "Patti don't I keep telling you that you've got to drink more liquids. Look, I've even gotten you a different flavor juice to take them with!"
She takes a minimal sip of the cranberry juice to swallow the pills.
Patti: (handing back the juice) "And don't I keep telling you - that if you got me a wine cooler, I'd gladly drink it all down!"

I LOVE MISSIONARY WORK. I love it, I love it, I love it. Oh my goodness. If you can't feel how big my smile is right now, I might have to send you the cheesiest picture of my face. I am SO happy, and completely lost in the work---in fact, I can't even believe that it is P-day AGAIN! Time is FLYING. I love the people here so much and I love studying, preparing, and serving them in anyway possible, so that they might "come unto eternal life." I LOVE IT HERE. I love the Spanish language, I love the culture of the Mexican people, I love this place---but more so I love the work. At times I seriously cannot believe how lucky and blessed I am to have this opportunity to serve the Lord with ALL my heart, mind, soul, and strength all day EVERYDAY. It is the greatest opportunity and blessing. I can't believe how lucky I am that I get to go around serving, inviting and teaching others as Christ would have done on the earth today if He were here. I have been humbled to the dust of the earth to remember that it isn't me at all that this gospel, this work or my life is about---it is about HIM and about the people He has prepared to be willing to listen and hear the Word of God. I love it. Even though it is REALLY hard, and training and being a first-time senior companion has been a LOT of learning, it is ALL so worth it. Even if it is just making someone smile.
My companion is amazing. I love her like she was my own sister. We are both so different, but that makes us strong together. I've noticed that I am learning things from her like how to listen, and how to connect with people on a deeper level than just the surface. She is a wonderful human being. Despite our weaknesses, we spend A LOT of time praying, because we know with the Lord we can be more united and more powerful when teaching our lessons. As we have striven to make sure that there is no contention and as we serve each other all the time---we have come to notice that the Spirit is so strong and that our lessons ALWAYS go amazingly better. We set goals everyday, every week and have goals for the entire transfer, and we are
|With Sister Schiess getting ready for church!The day of miracles!! I love this girl!
This is the coolest mission ever. Waiting for a VISA is the greatest blessing ever. I am learning how to teach the lessons in both English and Spanish---and man, I am learning a ton. It is crazy how when you study and try to apply the Gospel principles to others, how you begin to understand more fully and firmly the principles for yourself. Although almost all day we are teaching and talking in Spanish, it has been really cool to learn how to talk to people on a Spiritual level with people that live in my own backyard---Utah. There is so much work to be done here! SO MUCH WORK! I have learned how to work with bishops, stake presidents, ward missionary leaders and members to truly find, strengthen and teach the "lost sheep." I love it here, and I totally feel like I am in a different country. I have truly learned that missionary work isn't about WHERE you are, it is about HOW you serve. And I have been trying with all that I have got (although falling short many times, I am sure) to be the absolute best missionary and person that I can be for the Lord and for the people here.
Awesome experience of the week---we had exchanges!!! And guess who was my companion!?!? Sister Erickson! My MTC companion! Isn't that CRAZY! I felt like I was coming home, as I got to spend time with her! She is one of my dear friends. Sister Schiess went to Logan and I stayed here to train and teach Sister Erickson. It was a little weird training her, because we were MTC companions, but it was a lot of fun! She taught me SO much as well! I learned a lot about creative ways to teach children and how to help
|With Sister Erickson
Anyways...can I tell you about some of my favorite people and how they are coming unto my best friend, Jesus Christ?
David Cruz- So, Sister Schiess and I were walking....(haha surprise) and we felt the impression to go and visit one of the referrals that we had received from the Bishop. We did, and we were expecting to get an older man that has lived in the area for a while, but then---David came outside. David is about 21 and is living with his Aunt and Uncle right now because he has no money because he said he recently just gambled it all away in Las Vegas. Well, I have never felt the Spirit so strong as we did in those first few moments with David. He took a serious interest in the church, despite the fact that he has long been a Catholic. We asked him if he felt like he had purpose in life, and he said "No." And then we asked him if he would like to know what that purpose is. His face changed...it lit up and he eagerly asked..."Yes!! Can you please tell me?" It was so sincere, and amazing, I can't describe it. The Lord has been preparing David for a long time. Right there on his doorstep we taught him the Plan of Salvation and gave him a Book of Mormon. He said that he would start reading immediately. And he did. We came back the next day and he honestly could hardly wait to hear more about the Book of Mormon. He told us that he was wanting to know more, we taught him the Restoration and read the Book of Mormon with him. We invited him to church----AND HE CAME!!!!! investigators like NEVER come to church, so this was honestly a HUGE miracle! He said that he really liked church, but was a little confused. After explaining a little bit more to him, he just kept wanting to know more. David is one of the most humble people I have ever met. He says that all he wants is to be happy and have a family and be the best person he can before God. Yesterday we went back and taught him more of the Plan of Salvation....when we were talking about our life on earth and the importance of baptism---we invited him to be baptized....and HE ACCEPTED!!!!! He is preparing to be baptized on the 25th of May!!! I AM SO EXCITED FOR HIM I CAN HARDLY STAND IT!!!! He reads the Book of Mormon daily and says that it is such an interesting story, and he said that he wants to prepare to be baptized. He is SO GOLDEN. I just hope that he stays firm in the path and that he keeps keeping commitments. The Lord is helping him understand a lot, because we are NOT perfect teachers....but I KNOW the Holy Ghost is. So we rely on Him a LOT.
Jenny Ramirez---We have been working with Jenny for about 3 weeks now! She is a beautiful 12-year-old girl that is Catholic! We had been praying and praying that she would want to be baptized and she has expressed various times her wish to be baptized!! We are SO EXCITED FOR HER! The only problem is, is that her mom is a less-active Mormon (hasn't been to church for 25 years) and her dad is a devote Catholic. A miracle happened though. The mom really wants Jenny to be baptized, if she wants to be. The dad, on the other hand really does not want her to change religion and has a bit of prejudice against the Mormon faith. We hadn't been able to sit down with Jenny and her dad, due to the fact that he was always away at work. The man scares me to death, because he is tough as a nail, but slowly the Lord has been working on him.
|Jenny Ramirez (in the pink, brown and white dress -- age 12) with her family
Cintia Delacruz--Remember how last week I told you that Cintia prayed to for her husband to find a job? Well, by some miracle, even though he doesn't have his papers, he FOUND A JOB two days after! A better paying job than he has ever had! I danced around the apartment when we found out. Cintia's husband, Felipe, now wants to know what we are teaching Cintia!!! AMAZING!!!!! They firmly believe that it was only through God that this miracle happened, and that all is possible with him. They have such incredible faith. I asked Cintia when she will be ready to be baptized, she still has a lot of doubts about baptism, so we are working to resolve those. They also have to get married before they can get baptized.....we are teaching
|Learning how to make "Carne Asada" a famous Mexican Meat! YUM!!
There are SO many miracles. Everyday. Every second, it feels like. I want to share just one more quick one with you....We were over doing service for some older people in the area, when I got a strong impression to visit a member in our ward. Her name is Sister Aitken, and is Peruvian. She is a diabetic and she is pregnant. She has been really stressed about being healthy so that she can take care of her baby. Her baby was due in August. She also served a mission. At first, I was like--Why would we visit her? She is already okay. But the feeling persisted. I grabbed my companion and described my feelings and thoughts. We left immediately. When we got there she was a wreck. She was balling hysterically and was so frustrated. She was studying to get a drivers license here in the states and felt like she wanted to just give up because it was too hard. She said she had just prayed for help, when we showed up. I got the chills. We were able to comfort her, leave her with a prayer and strengthen her the best that we could. We got news the next day that she past her test! The test she had taken 12 times before! AMAZING. But then!!! Even crazier! Later that evening she went into per-mature labor, and somehow both she and the baby are 100% okay. It was amazing!!! The Lord is watching over her. I learned that it is SO important to listen to even the smallest promptings in our lives.
Anyways, I love being a missionary. It is a lot of hard work and there are a lot of things that I don't understand. But I have learned that we have the greatest power on the earth. The power to pray. Like Joseph Smith did when he was younger....He Asked God. In James 1:5 it says, that if we EVER lack wisdom, or have a question, that we can "ask of God." How cool and how powerful is that? I want to challenge all of you, if there is any question or direction that you are lacking in your life, that you should "ask God" and then have the FAITH that you will get an answer. Sometimes it isn't the answer that we want, but He will always help us to have the strength to ACCEPT His will and His plan for us. I know that is true, and challenge you to find that out for yourselves. It is the coolest thing in the world.
Family---I am so proud of you!! I JUST WANT TO GIVE YOU THE BIGGEST HUGS AND KISSES EVER. I can't wait till Mother's Day!!!! I can't wait to talk to you and see your beautiful smiling faces in just a few days over the internet!!! I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH! I can't thank you enough for all your support, inspiration, and love! I am so proud of all the things you are doing and the ways that you are building the kingdom in the world!! I pray for all of you.

|Want to be so busy, you
need an extra hand?
When I ask people what is the biggest challenge in working their network marketing business, they almost always say they need to know how to get people to talk to, and then what do they say. This isn't as difficult as it sounds.
If you are working on your own, no direction, no mentor, and no system for getting leads you are going to fail. You need a system to get those qualified leads to talk to and it needs to provide information and a good auto responder that will make it sound like you personally sent that message, and a library of responses that are sent as soon as the client shows interest.
The best systems will find people that are already interested in network marketing. You don't want to have to convince anyone that the business model is a good one, spend your time with people that are already wanting to find what you have.
First, Promote yourself! Learn how to brand yourself so when someone sees your name it is one they associate with your business, or with network marketing in general. That way you are looked on as a professional, a real leader.
Use a something free, some free info so when someone comes to you for help, they get something of VALUE without being asked for money. People join people and you want them to want to join you in whatever you are doing, because you are successful, and they want to be like you!
If you use these basic guidelines to find a system and a mentor to show you how, you should be looking like the guy in the cartoon, and you will be successful.

"Israel is building illegal settlements in the West Bank in defiance of international law"
The claim that Israeli settlements in Gaza and the West Bank are illegal is based on faulty premises, as has been definitively demonstrated by Professor Julius Stone, one of the world's foremost experts on international law. Firstly, these lands were not considered the legal territories of any High Contracting Party when Israel won control of them; their occupation after 1948 by Jordan and Egypt was illegal and neither country ever had lawful or recognised sovereignty. The last legal sovereignty over the territories was that of the original Palestine Mandate, which actually encouraged Jewish settlement of the land. Second, since Israel captured these lands in lawful self-defense during the Six-Day War, which was a pre-emptive strike against Egyptian forces massing on the border, settlement on these lands is therefore not illegal under international law.
The irony is that there IS an illegal settlement program going on...in Israel. In recent years, over 100,000 illegally constructed housing units have been built in Jerusalem by Arabs. When moral idiots such as Obama (whose "non-interventionist" policy in the Middle East is mysteriously repealed in the case of Israel) begin to focus on issues like this, and not just on imaginary Israeli "apartheid" (dealt with in the next instalment), then there can be real progress in this conflict.

Hi everybody,
A bit of a newbie user of InDesign. I was using the programme this evening to set up some report templates when I noticed this strange obstructive grey box hovering near my essentials. It blocks my menus and I can't seem to click it. I tried clicking the thing it's pointing at (the essentials layout), but that doesn't turn it off. When I hide InDesign, it disappears, so I don't think it's caused by my OS.
What is it and how can I get rid of it?
Never mind, sorry, found the answer. It disappeared after I deleted my indesign preferences.

Morocco, make us proudPublished by BO18 on - 2/04/2007
It is about to happen!
Morocco is getting closer to the abolition of the death penalty.
Before the end of April, Morocco will join the civilized world at last!
But let me correct something.
Morocco isn't the first Arab country to do so. I thought it was but I did a little check on that and it turned out not to be true.
If we consider all the states of the Arab League to be Arab nations, than Morocco is the 2nd Arab nation to abolish the death penalty.
Djibouti, also a member of the Arab League, beat us to it in 1995!
But that doesn't matter. It's not a competition, right?

I hope it happens really....! No one has actually been executed in Morocco for many years. But it could happen and there are over a hundred Moroccans languishing on death row.

buckwheat hulls
Hi There,
We are moving to our new house soon, And was wanting to do or get made some floor cushions for the kids room that have buckwheat hulls inside them or something similar. Would you know where to get buckwheat hulls from or perhaps even get such cushions made? Also if you could point me to the right direction for all crafty things, it would be much appreciated
White Umbrella
ps. have tried polyurethane little "ball-thingies" inside such cushions and despite modern and all that after sitting on them only once they are totally "deflated"

This past Sunday in our Sunday School class we were continuing in our study of Colossians. As we were discussing the passage in chapter 1, a verse there really stuck out in my head and heart and I wanted to share as well as challenge you.
In verse 29 of chapter 1 it says: "To this end I labor, struggling with all His energy, which so powerfully works in me".
Now I hear the famous "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" quoted a lot and rightly so, but I believe this verse might be overlooked.
Think of other words for "energy". I think of Charles Atlas above and the word: "strength". Think of it: the God who created the Universe with just the breathing of a few words is the same God who works in us! As Paul said, "which so powerfully works in me".
How "powerful" is God's energy in you? Are you lifting weights on your own?
He is mighty strong, lot's of energy, let's tap into it and take on the world!!

Are We Really Utilizing God's Strength?
This past Sunday in our Sunday School class we were continuing in our study of Colossians. As we were discussing the passage in chapter 1, a verse there really stuck out in my head and heart and I wanted to share as well as challenge you.

OK, I'll respond first. My brother and I grew up wanting to be like Charles Atlas. His body-building ads were in every comic book we ever bought. We were tired of having bigger guys kicking sand in our faces on the beach! Now onto Colossians; by far my favorite book in the Bible, esp. Chapter 2. Three verses jump out at me: 3,8 and 14. As verse 2 states; "in Christ Himself are hidden all treasures of wisdom and knowledge." To strive toward the mind of God is to strive to attain wisdom and knowledge. All others ring hollow and smack of the Gnosticism that Paul worked so hard to defeat (or reason with). Any philosophy built on the "traditions of men" from verse 8 may tempt our minds and hearts and when presented in such a way, can deceive even the most staunch of believers. However, when our philosophies are rooted in Scripture (not the Talmud, Apocrypha, etc.), we are being fed with the "advanced" principles in this world and therefore given true wisdom and knowledge. Verse 14 summarizes the victory that believers have over the hollow philosophies of men. Jesus the Christ, by sacrificing himself on the cross, so that we might grasp the grace and mercy of God the Father, simplified the entire process. The Pharisees (cut to the quick in Matthew 23:13-36) built a wall that separated man from God grace and mercy. Written some 30 years after the death of Christ, Paul was dealing with the same problems facing Jesus previously. In fact, most of our "faith-related" issues are due to the exact same thing. Rather than taking the Word at face value, as literal, infallible truth, religions continue to add to the Word to justify behavior and calm dissensions with their body of believers.
- August 6, 2007 at 8:31 PM
OK, page two (I had to relax in the hot tub for a few moments). "In the beginning was the Word". "The Word was made flesh and dwelt among us." I take this to mean that Jesus existed before time. He is the Word and was created in human form that we might see the Truth before our very eyes and "turn from our wicked ways" built on the hollow deceptive philosophies created by men's traditions. Jesus is the Word and also "the author and perfector of our faith." The rub begins when professed Christian denominations don't proclaim the Word as "infallible", but rather a document in constant metamorphosis and open to individual interpretation. In doing so, Jesus has been lowered from perfection and placed into the same category as sinful man. Jesus' attitude to the adulteress was one of compassion and forgiveness, but his last words to her were "don't repeat the sin." He didn't abolish the Law. He demonstrated that it should administered with love. He didn't rewrite Scripture to give absolution to the masses. He showed it's proper and just application.

Mick...good gosh, how do I follow that? I saw Bill's new post earlier and was going to respond, but didn't. Came back tonight to say something, and you and are your theological maturity...kind of makes my thoughts seem a bit simple. Oh well. :)
Anyways...Bill, thanks for the thoughts here. I really like to think of God as energy, and honestly have NEVER thought that way before. Considering I've always struggled with my energy levels, even as a child I was always tired, to think of tapping into God's power and energy to give us fuel and light for our days and tasks really is simply HOPE for me.
A hope that one day I can bounce out of bed and be an energetic person. Now I'm sure you think of me as energetic, cause I was a crazy spitfire in Sunday School...but that's different. I mean a God given energy to do His will and deeds everyday. That's my goal in this life, to not drag, but to live life at the fullest possible level. Energetic. God's energy. Like it. Rock on, Bill.

Although I don't understand half of what you said Mick I am sure it's all good.
jenny, I think we are all guilty of the same.
That is why this verse meant so much.

- Bill's Waste of Air said...
jenny, I am uncertain why you don't allow comments on your blog?
As for pdx being "socially eco whatever friendly"?
Wack job libs are "freeing" your mind.
Run away now.
pdx is San Francisco II, the sodom of oregon.
gomorrah is eugene.
Please either stay in Pasadena or move back to Salem and let us clean you up from all of that California air smog and brain smog.

Ha Bill!!
Long story about why I don't allow comments on my blog...I had some past enemies (what I referred to when I say healing from my past), coming on a being really rude on my comment section. So, I turned them off.
I am not going to respond to your concerns...cause Jeremy doesn't like me fighting. Don't worry about us, we're good. There's a lot of people in PDX that need to hear about Jesus...that's all I'm going to say about that. :)
- August 7, 2007 at 11:13 AM
Hey Bill... I want to hear more about how you are preparing to teach high school. Can that be your next post? Thanks, Kristi
- August 7, 2007 at 12:39 PM
- Bill's Waste of Air said...
Kristi, see your own blog for answer to your question.
- August 7, 2007 at 9:13 PM
I want to know where you hang out in Portland that makes it like Sodom. You must go to a different part of town than where my sister lives, or where I shop and eat, or use to work. I guess I'm more sheltered than I thought, because I had no idea. PDX like San Fran or Vegas. Are you sure?
- August 8, 2007 at 8:40 AM
- Bill's Waste of Air said...
please watch the news at night. That will give you a start.
The Gay Pride festivals that are now second in size only to SF and NY.
The rise of "Air America" the liberal radio network.
If you could only see and read the discussion board for radio and tv personalities and see what they say, they are really left.
How about the fact that the two main counties in PDX are what determine the entire state's political stance? We are a conservative state, but due to those two counties and one in Eugene, we are considered by the media nationally and the political community as a LEFT WING State.
That is why I say what I say.
Oh, how about the Saturday Market? Yes cute little arts and crafts are sold as well as marijuana paraphenalia, drug culture ideas, abortion rights stands and more.
PDX is what gave us senior citizen murder (death with dignity), abortion at it's highest rate per capita. Need I go on?
Just because they have some neato restaurants and cool places to go does not lessen it's impact for evil upon this state.
- August 8, 2007 at 9:37 AM
- Jennyth said...
and like I said before...
those people need Jesus.
- August 8, 2007 at 10:49 AM
- Bill's Waste of Air said...
Yes they do. No doubt about that, but they also need him in Enterprise, in Prineville, in Medford, in Coos Bay and many other places including good old Salem/Keizer.
I am not wanting to lessen your burden for Portland at all. I am merely pointing out why I do not like the place.
Salem Riverfest with Reid Saunders would never fly in PDX. Of course I know if God wanted it to, it would, but you know what I mean.
The fields are ripe everywhere.
I am currently reading a book by the great evangelist Dr. John R. Rice, who even in his day (the 1920's to 1940's) was considered a "radical" preacher, much less if you read him today.
The book is a gathering of 11 of his best sermons called "When Skeletons come out of their closets". He clearly and scripturally defines how horrible the final White Throne Judgement will be. He clearly states and backs up with scripture, we who accepted Christ will not be judged there, but rather only those who denied or did not accept Christ. We who did, will be there as witnesses for the prosecution.
He preached that we don't have much time (and this was in the 1920's) and we have a lost world. He also clearly defines how horrible Hell will be and does not shy away from telling sinners their final destination. I love his style, candor and passion. Oh that our preachers today would get off the "feel good" crud and embrace the idea that most are going to Hell and we have been called to show them the way out.
Whew, had to get that off my chest.
Back to you Jennyth, you are spot on, rock on girl.
- August 8, 2007 at 11:09 AM
I would like to respond to your question about why PDX is like Sodom..
I think that Bill was making reference to 'the prophets' understanding of the judgment on the city. Take this passage written by the prophet Ezekiel (16:49-50)
'Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.'
I think that Bill is really upset by how arrogant, wealthy, and uncaring PDX is. He is obviously TO'd by how little PDX cares for the POOR. This is the reason God gives for the destruction of Sodom and must be what Bill is getting at in his post.
...right Bill?

and we're off and rolling...my theological hubby has joined the conversatin
- August 8, 2007 at 12:15 PM
- Bill's Waste of Air said...
you're vast knowledge of the Bible that you have acquired would be too much for me to tackle.
I wouldn't even think to debate you.
or bait you.
Please look up the Websters definition of "sodomite" and you will know what I am referring to. I know they still use dictionaries somewhere so you might have to go to that most unused of all learning facilities, the library and find one, but you will.
Actually I think I did a dang good job of describing why I don't like PDX.
So read it again, slowly, pretend it is a professor at the old seminary and try to pay attention.
I believe that between all the hoohaw they be teaching you and the smog, you'se brain is under undue stress.
Come up here where the air is clean and we'll help filter you out boy!
Oh ya, another reason I don't like PDX, dirty air.
thanks for reminding me.

I don't like you slamming Jeremy. I'm going to protest your blog ... for 1 whole day, anyway.
See ya Friday!
- August 8, 2007 at 4:59 PM

Tammy, you have never experienced Jeremy's scathing blows then. Believe me it can be very very invigorating.
You must know that it is all in good love and humor.
I love the guy and miss him greatly.
- August 8, 2007 at 6:11 PM
- Jennyth said...
seriously, these guys talk this way to eachother all of the time. thanks for sticking up for Jeremy, but really, he's fine and is holding his own...
protest if you must, but no need from the "Greens"... :)
- August 8, 2007 at 6:30 PM
- Bill's Waste of Air said...
Thanks jenny for explaining the rather weird way we guys talk to each other. Apparently you HAVE paid attention to all thos FFL discussions over the years.
I guess Dan must not let Tammy in on those and that is probably good because if she saw what dear sweet Danny boy wrote she'd probably leave him!! :)
- August 9, 2007 at 8:41 AM
sodomite: a person who engages in sexual intercourse considered to be abnormal, as between two male persons. This is from Webster's New World Dictionary copyright 1987. Has the definition changed in the last 20 years to fit our "progressive" society?
- August 9, 2007 at 12:20 PM
- Tammy Bowers said...
Okay, my one day boycott has ended. Jenny, I don't think Bill every needs defending. Bill, my Danny Boy has his perfect reasons for posting his slams on your NFL draft board. That is all guys and appropriate for trash talk. Not so good for a blog though. I understand excellent discussion and disagreement, as long as it is respectful. But this is your blog, you can do it anyway you want. PTL for America's freedom, right! I just may have to boycott it from time to time if it crosses the line, which will not hurt you one bit, but I'll feel better.
- August 10, 2007 at 9:07 AM
- Jennyth said...
well said, Tammy...
No worries, I wasn't defending Bill, just making sure you knew we were fine. You do what you must to keep the peace for yourself. Instead of a boycott, I'm just not going to actually go head to head with Bill on why I am not in a "brain fog" liberal mindset. Boy, I'd love to, though. Some of the things I've been convicted on concerning what the Bible says about how we should treat God's creation, take care of the poor, and not completely separate ourselves from non-Christian heathens would probably get a huge an completely crazy debate going, and since my hubby has requested I don't "go there"...I will respect him and keep my mouth shut.
I love Bill and think I'll just agree to disagree with his Portland conclusion, and hey guess what...
Portland was just named the 3rd "greenest" city in the world. Gotta love it!!
- August 10, 2007 at 1:26 PM
- Bill's Waste of Air said...
Well, hmmm....Dan will probably never let you see the stuff he writes, but that is ok because I know in my heart we are friends and we just talk pretty funny and I never ever take any of it personal. Blog, discussion boards, IM or chat rooms are all the same, place where opinions and sometimes more, are posted. This blog is for all to whack away at whatever ax they want to grind, or whatever they want period.
I respect what you have said, but have to disagree as the parties involved are good with each other.
Now as for you young lady, Jenny....don't tell anyone but I recycle paper almost to the point of obsession and my wife comes from a long line of timbermen!
So I guess that makes me a closet eco whatever.
I will never debate what God has laid on someones heart, that is none of my beeswax, so of course it is all in fun.
You go girl.

PS: my dig at Jeremy was actually quite good when you really read it. When was the last time any of us used a Library? No, we "google" it now. We are becoming a society of morons who let other people come up with our answers.
What happened to sitting up long hours in the library digging through huge amounts of books trying to find the perfect quote for a paper or research we are working on, or for that matter just to soak up the atmosphere of peace, quiet and serenity of the library?
No we are all in our dark little rooms pounding away on keyboards. Sad. Really. Guilty.

Bill...I just love ya, man!!
I'm with you on the dictionary thing...the only ones I think we still have around is something written in greek (literally) from Jeremy's classes, and a Scrabble dictionary. Funny.

have to ask bill. . . can't take one single thing I say seriously. Could you tell Jeremy that Dusty won't come home until 3 or 4 a.m? He will know what that means for his ffl picks. . . have to be saturday morning. I know, you could care less about ffl. . . sorry. DB

<Split off from another thread.......>
I'm also very tempted by the EcoTech. It appears that there would be around a 1 year payback to replace my vintage 2000, already rebuilt once, 2-speed, 1.5 HP motor on my Hayward SuperPump.
The programming is much more flexible than the other VS replacement motors I've looked at. It has two start time/stop time/speed settings for Monday-Friday and two start time/stop time/speed settings for Saturday-Sunday. If you have an external controller, you can add up to four additional start time/stop time/speed settings.
One hesitation is a hunch that the floodgates are about to open on brands/models/pricing of VS replacement motors. Does anybody's crystal ball give them any insight as to whether it would pay to wait for lower pricing and/or better programmability?
The EcoTech is available in 1.5 HP and 3.0 HP models, with very little difference in pricing. Since VS motors supposedly automatically adjust their power output to the impeller load, does anybody know if there would be any operating cost or functional benefit to oversizing with the 3.0 HP model?
The EcoTech 1.5 HP is currently available from Hydropool.com for $350 with free shipping.

Proclaiming itself "the Border City" (it's just across Lake Memphremagog from Quebec), Newport is a departure point for those touring the far northern part of Vermont and the White Mountains of New Hampshire. The town is 60 mi/95 km northeast of Burlington.
In Brownington, 8 mi/13 km south of Newport, the Old Stone House Museum has a collection that includes local artifacts as well as furniture, paintings and decorative arts from New England. The museum building (Athenian Hall) was originally a school designed by the Rev. Alexander Twilight, believed to have been the first African-American college graduate, as well as the first African American to serve in a state legislature.
Also close to Newport is the Haskell Free Library and Opera House in Derby Line, which straddles the international border. If you attend one of the summer performances offered there by the North Country Concert Association, you may hear it in either Canada or the U.S., depending on where your seats are.
