On Saturday, July 30, 2011, a serious Georgia motorcycle accident occurred, sending a 41-year-old motorcycle rider to the hospital with critical injuries. Police indicated that the crash took place at Lee Road and Georgia 60.
A Chevy Silverado pulling a bass boat collided with a Harley-Davidson motorcycle early in the morning. Both Tina McGlothlin, 41, and James McGlothlin, 47, of Murrayville, were traveling on the motorcycle at the time of the wreck.
According to James McGlothlin, he had to hit the brakes of the Harley to avoid making contact with the truck after he observed the truck failing to stop at a stop sign. Due to the impact, Tina McGlothlin was thrown from the bike.
Allegedly, 47-year-old Manual Spear, of Gainesville, drove his Silverado truck away from the scene. Although authorities said he did not go far, he still left the scene. When authorities questioned Spear, he told them that he did stop at the stop sign but that he thought he had time to cross the intersection before the motorcycle.
Tina McGlothlin, the motorcycle passenger, was taken by helicopter to Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta for medical care. She sustained injuries to her lower extremities. Authorities indicated that she was wearing her helmet at the time of the crash.
James McGlothlin suffered upper extremity injuries, and was transported to Northeast Georgia Medical Center for medical treatment.
Spear was cited for failing to yield at an intersection, leaving the scene of an accident, driving on a suspended license, and obstruction of law enforcement officers. He was not injured in the crash.
Kalka & Baer would like to wish both injured victims of this Georgia hit-and-run accident a full and fast recovery.

XIANNING - The Deputy Secretary and Mayor Wang Yuanhe on Tuesday led heads of relevant departments directly under municipal government to investigate major projects, urging to promote great change and development and constantly improve citizens' happiness index through leading by planning and scientific planning.
Wang and his team investigated renovation project at middle and lower reaches of Ganhe River, Dazhou Lake ecological construction demonstration area project, school running in Zishan Lake new town, and Wuhan-Xianning express channel.
Ganhe River is a mother river in urban area. Based on the concept of "protection first, ecology first, expanding tourism, people first", Xianning raised funds of 1 billion yuan through integration of city and district, joint efforts from departments, project-driven way and social financing to carry out renovation project at middle and lower reaches of Ganhe River according to the standard of "clear water, green bank, smooth riverway, beautiful scenery" in order to really improve flood control capacity and guarantee the security of people's lives and properties.
After heard the report on related work in the site, Wang urged to guide renovation work through more forward-looking and feasible planning based on national shantytown renovation policy, and to promote big construction by big demolition, big development by big renovation through scientific analysis, overall planning and all-round consideration, letting "one river two banks" project drive great change and development of Xianning.
Dazhou Lake is close to the junction between the two regional development zones in the northwest Xianning and the new area in the north of main urban zone. It is also the ecological barrier and business card of north Xianning, with such local cultural resources as osmanthus culture, hot spring culture, bamboo culture, and water culture. According to Xianning General Urban Plan (2010-2030), Xianning General Plan on Tourism Development (2007-2020) and Outline of Xianning's "13th Five-Year Plan" (Draft), Xianning will be built into a livable city with characteristics, a green eco-city, a tourism and cultural city with unique hot spring. While the construction of Dazhou Lake ecological demonstration zone is one of the key projects
Wang Yuanhe learned more about problems and difficulties in the project. He pointed out that Dazhou Lake ecological demonstration zone is important for regional economic and social development, closely related to improving people's life and optimizing the development environment. Therefore, it is necessary to make a good plan and coordination, to take tourism as an industry pillar, and to propel regional industrial innovation and development with model of "ecology + tourism + health", so that the public's happiness index continues to increase and they will have a greater sense of gain.

I honestly don't remember when I found my love of horror movies. I do remember that one time when I was in about the 4th grade, my brother rented Nightmare on Elm Street 4 and I watched part of it and it scared the shit out of my. Around the same time, maybe a little before, my mom was visiting her friend Debbie and her sons were watching Silver Bullet and I was equally as freaked out. I had always been drawn to monsters – I loved Frankenstein's monster and his bride, the Creature from the Black Lagoon, the Mummy, Dracula – but these golden age frights were pretty tame compared to what these 80s concoctions had to offer.
Even though I was scared, I wanted to see more; I argued with my mother when she rented Prom Night 2: Hello Mary Lou and didn't want to let me watch it, afraid it would give me nightmares. I knew that it probably would, and I didn't care. She let me watch it. I can't remember if it lead to any bad dreams, but if it did I kept them to myself – I didn't want to be left out of any future movie nights.
I also don't remember when during this budding romance I discovered Camp Crystal Lake and Jason Voorhees, but once I did it was all over. I was hooked. There was something about that unstoppable terror with the hockey mask that was absolutely entrancing to me. Even though I enjoyed the increasingly flamboyant antics of Freddy Krueger and the equally silent rampages of Michael Myers, there was just something about Jason. To this day, the Friday the 13th series is my favorite of the "big three" horror franchises and features some of my favorite films of the slasher genre overall. In celebration of Halloween, I thought it might be fun to reminisce about my love of the series and show off some of my Friday the 13th collectibles.
I'm pretty sure the original Friday the 13th film wasn't the first one I saw in the series; like so many others, whenever someone mentioned the films I immediately thought of Jason in his hockey mask. It was a pleasant shock when I finally saw the original and found out that it wasn't Jason who murdered the first batch of counselors, but rather his mother, Pamela Voorhees (played perfectly by Betsy Palmer – rest in peace). This deepened the whole mythos for me. In fact, what I think often gets missed when people talk about these slasher franchises is that they attempted to build a world and a story and adhere to it as much as possible – there was always a reason for why the killer was stalking his victims, and not just because he wanted to punish those who were sexually active or liked to partake in alcohol and weed. You can't justify Pamela Voorhees' actions, but you can understand them: if the camp counselors had been doing their jobs and not messing around, Jason wouldn't have drowned and she never would have had to take her bloody revenge. They say "two wrongs don't make a right," but the first wrong was against Mrs. Voorhees and her vulnerable son, not the nubile machete-fodder populating the cabins at Camp Crystal Lake.
It was also surprising to me when I realized that Jason doesn't get his signature mask until the third film – in Friday the 13th Part 2, Jason is living like an animal in the woods with a burlap sack over his head. He also keeps his mother's severed head and blood-stained sweater as souvenirs, so his life is pretty much working out great. The "final girl" of that movie, Ginny (Amy Steel), actually fools Jason by putting on the sweater and commanding him like his mother. He falls for it, sort of, and things work out for Ginny…for a while. Perhaps if he'd had his hockey mask, he could have been the ruthless, efficient killer that fans know him to be.
That vulnerability related to his mother was used in the 2009 reboot with Jason being played by Derek Mears with more emotional range than previous incarnations. Well, as much emotional range as you can get from someone whose features are covered by a mask and who never, ever speaks. Whitney (Amanda Righetti) looks like Jason's mother and she is able to use that to stay alive; Jason keeps her prisoner, never killing her but never fully trusting her either. There is some conflict there that is surprisingly nuanced, again, for someone who has zero dialogue.
There are a ton of strange, violent, and even inventive kills throughout the series; 80s slashers were known for finding new and "interesting" ways to finish off their expendable teens. Here is a video that compiles a very subjective list of the "Top 13" kills from the series:
Another Friday the 13th hook for me growing up was the NES game by LJN. I've heard it described as a terrible game, and it was hard as fuck, but it was my second favorite NES game after Maniac Mansion. I was never able to beat it as a kid, even though I had mother's sweater, I had the torch, and I even had the pitchfork. I made sure to preserve as much health as I could for both Mark and Chrissy – anyone who played the game for longer than 10 seconds knew that if you didn't have one of those two you were fucked; all of the other counselors were way to slow to defeat Jason in the final round of combat. I has always thought that Chrissy was the better of the two, but that's a question I leave to the philosophers. Laura was also a pretty good option, but the other three were generic cannon fodder. This game left me so obsessed that as an adult when Rock 30 Games opened in Grand Forks, I bought an FC Twin (a retro console that plays both NES and Super NES cartridges), a Game Genie, and a copy of the game so that I could finally see the ending. After nearly a quarter century, this is what I had missed:
Seriously. Twenty-five years I waited for that.
There has been a lot of excitement around the interwebs about a new Friday the 13th game that is coming soon, and some of the gameplay footage that has been released looks super brutal. It's supposed to be a something like an 8 player game where 7 people player counselors trying to escape Jason's reign of terror, and one plays the man himself (I think I read that the character who plays Jason is selected randomly when the scenario starts, but I could be wrong). You can check out the game's official site HERE. I haven't done a ton of digging into this yet, and nothing I've found really says what your objective is as the counselor players (except – duh – to stay alive), but I hope that there will be more substance to it than just a bunch of inventive ways of dispatching teen archetypes. But if you want a preview of all the ways to dispatch those teen archetypes, you can check out the following video:
Now that we've talked about the movies and the games – show me the merchandise!
First up are the cool threads. I've got two Friday the 13th shirts, one from my Horror Block subscription boxes and one from the utterly fabulous Atomic Cotton that I found when I attended Days of the Dead Indianapolis 2016. The Atomic Cotton shirt has a super fun neon 80s look to it and says TGIF across the bottom. I absolutely adore this one and I love to wear it to work for a fun take on "casual Friday." The HB shirt is a little more plain, black shirt with a white design, but I like that it's a different design and just sort of evokes the franchise without just giving the same promo look as so many other items. The hat is one that I don't usually wear (I almost never wear hats of any kind) but I like the way they took the camp sign and put it in shades of gray, and under the brim features blood spatters which are a cool detail.
Next up I have three pillows that I found on a fun little site called Horror Decor. There are times where I wish I could just go all in and turn my house into a Halloween-themed haunted retreat all year long, and if I did this would be a great place to start. The first pillow is a recreation of the Welcome to Camp Crystal Lake sign in the original colors. I have the small version (11.5 x 11.5) but like a lot of their pillows there is a larger version available (16 x 16). The second pillow is an adorable recreation of the 8 bit NEW Jason from the game mentioned above. I love the sprite for this – the coloration is just so strange! Jason had a blue face/mask and a purple jumpsuit. Only in the 80s! Finall, there is a pillow of the infamous hockey mask, and of course there is a strap on the back just like a real mask…because, reasons.
Speaking of the 8-bit Jason, I have a great custom figure of that sprite that I picked up at DOTD from Mindbender Customs. I had to have this one not only because it recreated one of my favorite video games of all times, but because it did it in a way that also payed tribute to the G.I.Joe action figures I grew up with. Jason became a member of the deadly Cobra forces, complete with his own ID card printed on the back of the custom packaging. I remember carefully cutting those out and saving them every time I got a new action figure! This is one of my absolute favorite F13 items.
In addition to the custom action figure, I of course had to pick up the Jason Funko Pop – I absolutely adore these creepy little figures. In addition, I bought several of the Horror Classics mini vinyl figures (also from Funko) hoping to get a Jason figure (which I did my first time through – weee!). These two figures are different, but I like them both. There are so many different version of the character, I love having a wide range. I'm also hoping to get to DOTD in Atlanta is February where several of the actors who have played Jason will be there and can sign the figure (I have a Funko Pop Pinhead signed by Doug Bradley that needs some company!).
The next piece I have was handmade with lots of love by a wonderful woman that I met at DOTD Indy – Janet Jefferson. She was in a booth with her husband, author E. L. Jefferson who was selling copies of his horror collections alongside her handmade creations. I was trying to avoid buying any books at the con (I had paid for 2 checked bags and both were dangerously close to oversize even before my shopping spree!) but I picked up the adorable Jason doll and bookmarked E. L.'s Amazon page for later perusal!
I know I keep yammering on and on about my experience at Days of the Dead, but it really was a pretty special trip for me – I feel like I found my tribe at last! – and I found so many fun vendors and great collectible items. In addition to the toys and goodies, I also had the chance to meet Derek Mears who played Jason in the 2009 remake of Friday the 13th. I hadn't seen the film when it came out (I read some fairly negative reviews and was in my pink-girly-Mean–Girls-chick-flick-type-movie phase when it came out) but when I saw that Derek was on the guest list for the con, I watched it and was really impressed with his performance – I felt like he really brought something new to it. This Jason was even more brutal and relentless than some of the previous versions, but also seemed to have more intricate reactions around the young woman who looked like his mother. I know, I'm repeating myself. But while I was at DOTD, I purchased a promo photo that I had signed as well as took a fabulous candid shot. I also got the chance to meet Derek's amazing girlfriend and fabulous photog, Jenny Brezinski. They were both so sweet – and you know I love meeting a tall man whose face doesn't end up right in the fake boobs!
Finally, my most recent acquisition came in the October 2016 Loot Crate: a Camp Crystal Lake pennant. I'm not much of a sportsball fan, so pennants have never been my thing, but when it's a blood-splattered souvenir of everyone's favorite summer camp nightmare, then play ball bitches!
I also have a couple of art prints from DOTD that seem to be "misfiled" – that is, I can't figure out where the hell I put them in my house of eccentricities! If I track them down and can get good pictures I will definitely get them added. One is a head-and-shoulders of Jason with his bloody machete done in bright vivid colors and the other features slightly softer tones and features Elvira, Jason, and Michael Myers along with signature items from various horror films like the patterned carpet from the Overlook Hotel in The Shining and Pinhead's puzzlebox from the Hellraiser series. All good movies, of course, but I bought the print for my main man Jason. Well, that and my obsession with Elvira. But mostly Jason.
Halloween has always been a time for me to break out my love of monsters and horror, but the last couple of years I've been letting my freak flag fly all year long! A good scare is good for the soul, and I love the movies that make us tingle, make us scream, and make us cheer for both the enigmatic monster and the spunky young lady who finally defeats him. And though I love a wide variety of horror films, in a range of both style and quality, I have a special fondness for slashers and some of my favorite feature that hockey-masked maniac from Crystal Lake.
(Honorable mention goes to my favorite standalone horror film – Sleepaway Camp. Well, it is part of a franchise as well, but everything from the first sequel onward really lost the spirit and the complexity of the original, so I love it mostly on its own merit. If you missed my blog about Sleepaway Camp star Felissa Rose, you can read that HERE. My other slasher favorite is the cheesy Cheerleader Camp starring porn actress Teri Weigel and former child hearthrob Leif Garrett. All camp horrors…maybe that Baptist Bible camp I went to as a child left a stronger impact than I thought!)

One of the great things about Minecraft is the sandbox-style play scheme that allows the freedom to do things like construct Lord of the Rings' Mines of Moria in extreme detail over the course of a year. That might be the most impressive Minecraft geek-out we've ever seen, but it's far from the only one.
From the world of The Lord of the Rings to the world of Star Trek, there are plenty of sci-fi structures just waiting to be re-created in everyone's favorite block-building game, so we've combed the 'net for 25 of the best.
Of course, many of these creations are far too detailed to be contained in a single image, so click on the caption to see more angles and even video of some (not all) of these nerdtastic constructions.

Last week, Sir David Attenborough did an exclusive article for the Radio Times, reflecting on the Planet Earth 2 series. And, as you all probably now know, I am a huge fan of Attenborough and his work, so I thought I'd share his thoughts (and a few of mine!) on the epic series that captured our hearts.
Attenborough explains that in a turbulent world, the Planet Earth series often acts as a refuge for viewers. It is a chance for us for one hour, every Sunday at 8pm, to turn to the natural world for sanctuary. But as David explained in the opening episode, 'never has the wilderness been as fragile and as precious as it is today'. Each episode showed us what we face losing if we do not step up and address these environmental challenges. In a previous blog post I explained that nature documentaries showcase how beautiful the natural world still is. I explained that witnessing these 'perfect' habitats motivates us to restore degraded ecosystems back to their natural state. We can literally visualise our conservation goals.
Apparently this series attracted over 10 million viewers, with more young viewers (aged 16-35) than The X-Factor. Attenborough is immensely pleased that the younger generations are reconnecting with "a planet whose beauty is blemished, whose health is failing, because they understand our own well-being is inextricably linked to that of the planet's". After all, it is the next generation who will be the environmental champions of the future. That is why nature documentaries are so important. Planet Earth doesn't just transport these animals into our homes, it deliver us into theirs. In this series, the latest technology and stunning HD allowed us to be closer than ever, almost feeling included in the daily struggles the animals endure to survive. Common emotions and themes of life, love and loss connect us to the animals. We come to understand that their survival is our survival.
Ten years ago in the original Planet Earth series, Attenborough did not include cities as it was felt they were not a significant habitat. Today, they certainly are. With over half the world's population now living in towns or cities, we are encroaching into the natural world, so animals must find respite in ours. In the final episode of Planet Earth 2, Attenborough explained that although we must preserve what is left of our natural habitats, those designing our cities must be mindful of all inhabitants. Both humans and animals. Many cities today deprive humans of contact with nature. In a previous blog I explained the benefits of nature for child development, happiness and general wellbeing. As a species, we need nature to thrive and survive.
At the end of the series ten years ago, Attenborough's closing remarks were: "our planet is still full of wonders…we can now destroy or we can cherish. The choice is ours." And today, at the end of Planet Earth 2, his message is even more pertinent, and it is even more essential that we listen.
"It is surely our responsibility to do everything within our power to create a planet that provides a home not just for us, but for all life."

Cocaine speeds up your whole body. You may feel full of energy, happy, and excited. But then your mood can change. You can become angry, nervous, and afraid that someone's out to get you. You might do things that make no sense. After the "high" of the cocaine wears off, you can "crash" and feel tired and sad for days. You also get a strong craving to take the drug again to try to feel better.
No matter how cocaine is taken, it is dangerous. Some of the most common serious problems include heart attack and stroke. You are also at risk for HIV/AIDS and hepatitis, from sharing needles or having unsafe sex. Cocaine is more dangerous when combined with other drugs or alcohol.
It is easy to lose control over cocaine use and become addicted. Then, even if you get treatment, it can be hard to stay off the drug. People who stopped using cocaine can still feel strong cravings for the drug, sometimes even years later.

As one of its major goals, the ATF is actively seeking local anglers from various states and regional areas across the country to set up State Branches and Local Chapters.
While the ATF is well established in Victoria and has already begun the process with some regional chapters in Victoria already operating, our eventual goal is to establish branches and local chapters in all states where trout are found.
NSW, South Australia, Tasmania and Western Australia all have a small number of people that have expressed an interest in forming an ATF chapter in their state but to do so will require more dedicated locals to get involved. We can offer some guidance on setting up and each state chapter would be free to look after their own local issues (within the ATF's goals and policies) with the support and backing of a national organization.
If you are interested in helping us to establish a chapter in your state, please contact our president or secretary (email@example.com or firstname.lastname@example.com) with your contact details so we can put you in touch with other interested persons in your state.
Latest Update:
The ATF is well on its way to establishing a 'State Branch' in Western Australia with strong interest from over there. If you are from WA and have a keen interest in joining their ranks, please contact us to be put in touch with the local group of anglers working with ATF.
We have also recently had further discssion with a small number of keen anglers from South Australia with similar goals of setting up a State Branch of the ATF in their state. Please contact us if you have an interest in this.
NSW & Tasmania - What are you waiting for?

reading The New Rules of Marketing and PR for class… so much good info…when will I find the time to implement!
Monthly Archives: September 2013
Do you remember being excited about some new technology?
In one of college classes, my professor gave us a list of technology advances over the last 100 years. The list mentioned a man several times named Kurzweil who has made (and continues to do so) incredibly accurate predictions during the last 30 years or so about the future of technology. One of his predictions was that computers will disappear by 2019. Wow! Of course I had to Google that, and it turns out Kurzweil is accurate 86% of the time (here's a cool article about that by Dominic Basulto).
As we discussed advances we had seen, I remembered being really excited in my VOE (vocational office education) class in high school when we got a new, programmable typewriter: the IBM Correcting Selectric II! The sounds it made delivered on all the hype! Not only did it have automatic correction tape, but you could add a limited amount of text to type on command. It sounds pretty tame today, but in those days it saved time spent typing an address, greeting or signature line on each letter in a time when businesses typed letters one at a time.
Looking back, the advances over the last 100 years are amazing for a gal who went to high school (gasp) before the internet, DVD's, CD's, smart phones, Netflix (which I can't live without) and, well… before digital everything. As I sit here typing this post about the future of technology and Kurzweil on my laptop, I'm trying to imagine how I will type without a physical computer. It will certainly make travel easier. What do you think?
What to call my blog
I'm developing a blog where I write about many topics, such as resume's and resume services, but also struggles with deeper issues and even daily issues… I'm toying with names, do you have any suggestions?

Are you in need of large size corrugated boxes? Do you have big items or a large volume to cargo ship, possibly overseas? Look no further than McLeish Corr-A-Box for a wide variety and optimal value in corrugated packaging solutions for all your shipping needs. We've been successfully designing and manufacturing quality boxes for over four decades, and if we don't readily have exactly what you need available on hand, our seasoned design and production teams can effectively facilitate precisely what you require. Big or small, we create boxes for a plethora of products and objects. Give us a call and tell us what you need.
Reliable Structure
Structural reliability is crucial when shipping your goods, particularly when transporting large items or big volume shipments overseas. Our boxes are meticulously constructed to withstand the rigors of shipping, handling and storage. As a well seasoned corrugated box manufacturer, we have experience producing quality boxes and containers for big objects like industrial machinery and components, engines, automotive parts, furniture, appliances, home accessories, large electronics and so on. Our industrial packaging design services ensures that all parts, accessories and components are safely packaged and secured within the corrugated housing unit, which eliminates the need for any additional packing materials, like non-environmentally-friendly plastic air bags or Styrofoam chips.
High Volume
Moving companies in particular, appreciate the structural integrity of our boxes in addition to our competitive pricing and timely delivery. Businesses such as these typically place large volume orders with us, especially if any printing is involved, because they rapidly cycle through big quantities of boxes and cannot afford to be in an out-of-stock position. Volume pricing can be an added incentive, especially on customized orders, so more often than not customers that typically utilize a lot of boxes in their business select to place large run orders with us.
Store It with Us
Some of our customers do not have the warehouse space to facilitate their large inventory of boxes. In cases such as these, we run their high volume orders and store them at our facility to ship out as needed. We employ an innovative warehouse management system that ensures us efficient stock organization and timely customer delivery. We have our own fleet of delivery trucks so our distribution is controlled in-house, and we can even deliver to multiple location points for a single customer order. Having this warehousing and transportation power allows us the ability to rapidly respond to our customers' needs.
Best Structural Design Talent
Large objects that require corrugated housing may call for customized structural design. Thankfully here at McLeish we employ some of the best structural design talent in the industry. Coupled with our technological innovation, our designers create sound construction of corrugated products that ensure the contents reach their destination in tact. We only use the highest quality corrugate and linerboard and our manufacturing practices guarantee quality control, making it easy for us to confidently stand behind every box that comes off our production line.
An Industry Leader
Manufacturing corrugated boxes certainly isn't rocket science, but if we didn't do what we do so well, our customers wouldn't come back to us time and time again. We enjoy a hearty list of satisfied long time customers in Toronto, the GTA or across Ontario, many of whom rely on us as their corrugated solutions provider. Our success depends directly upon our customer satisfaction, and we pride ourselves on our high level of service. When you're in need of corrugated boxes, consider doing business with an industry leader like McLeish Corr-A-Box.

The Luck Uglies (Paperback)
The first in a series with the makings of a modern classic, The Luck Uglies is an irresistible cross between Chris Colfer's Land of Stories series and Kelly Barnhill's The Girl Who Drank the Moon, overflowing with adventure, secrets, friendship, and magic.
Rye O'Chanter has seen a lot of strange things happen in Village Drowning: Children are chased through the streets. Families are fined for breaking laws that don't even exist. Girls aren't allowed to read anymore, and certain books—books that hold secrets about Drowning's past—have been outlawed altogether.
Now a terrifying encounter has eleven-year-old Rye convinced that the monstrous, supposedly extinct Bog Noblins have returned. Before the monsters disappeared, there was only one way to defeat them—the Luck Uglies. But the Luck Uglies have long since been exiled, and there's nobody left who can protect the village.
As Rye dives into Drowning's maze of secrets, rules, and lies, she begins to question everything she's been told about the village's legend of outlaws and beasts . . . and what she'll discover is that it may take a villain to save them from the monsters.
This critically acclaimed debut middle grade novel was named an ALA Notable Book and a New York Public Library Title for Reading and Sharing and won the Cybil Award for Middle Grade Speculative Fiction and a Sunshine State Young Readers Award.
About the Author

May 2003 Feature car:
Steve Sandlin's 1969 Baldwin-Motion Camaro
"Phase III SS427"
|Engine (as arrived at Baldwin Chevrolet):
|L-78 (396/375hp)
|Engine (as it was deliver from Motion)::
|Phase III (427/500hp)
|TH400 automatic
|Rear end:
|3.55 posi
|Interior color:
|Standard black vinyl
|Exterior color:
|Dusk blue
Ever noticed how there often times 2 distinct personalities in the musclecar hobby? On one end, you've got the guys who go after the bare bones cars. You know, the less options the better: manual steering, manual brakes, vinyl mat, and all the deletes (radio, heater, etc.) that you could get...the "less is more" theory. But, on the other end of the spectrum you've got the "options guys": throw in all the power accessories, all the accessory lights, the top of the line carpet, seats, and trim, and keep checking boxes until you run out of ink...then switch pens and check some more. Two very different approaches to the same hobby. Oddly, this car follows BOTH theories, except with a performance "twist".
Ordered in October of 1969, this car didn't make it into the hands of it's original owner, a gentleman from Connecticut, until February of 1970! Why the wait, you ask? Well, this car literally had every speed option imaginable added to it, and it simply took that darn long to bolt all that stuff up! The option list reads like a racers wish book from back in the day: "Superbite" shocks, "ET" traction bars, "Inglewood" wheels, "Sun Super" tach, "Mr. Gasket" air cleaner, "Mallory" coil...throw in an "SS" here and a "Phase III" there, and the list is virtually endless.
Starting life as your "standard" SS396, it rolled out of the facotry with a TH400 tranny and an L-78. But then the car made the trek from Baldwin Chevrolet over to Motion Performance, and it was transformed into the street terror you see before you. The Phase III treatment gave you everything you would need to gain the title as "the car to beat".
Today, the car no longer has to endure the harsh weather of the East coast, but resides in the much "friendlier" climate of Nevada. But, don't even think for a second that this car has lost any of it's edge...it still has all the "goods" it left Motion Performance with way back in 1970, and loads of paperwork to prove it.

- Media Studies 2016-2
"We must prepare young people for living in a world of powerful images, words and sounds"
"Cinema, radio, television, magazines are a school of inattention; people look without seeing, listen without hearing"
Robert Bresson
The media plays a central role in the lives of everyone, young and old. Our communities, our homes, even our bedrooms, are saturated with media. Whether it is the TV show we interact with by voting for our favourite singer, the newspaper we never pay for because we get the same content for free online, the text message we get to tell us that our team has scored, the film trailers we sit through before the film starts or the social network we catch up with the gossip through, the media is inescapable. Our young people are, in many ways the target audiences of many publishers, music promoters, games companies and TV networks. This is why Media Studies at Moulsham provides our students with the tools to un-pack, decode and truly understand the messages and products they encounter every day.
The study of media at Moulsham is rigorous and academic. We learn to decode film and television texts by appreciating cinematography and mise-en-scène, analyse magazines and news papers, and consider the role and impact of digital media. Furthermore, the impressive creativity of our students is nurtured and by the variety of challenging practical tasks including storyboards for film, full-length music videos, complex advertising campaigns, film trailers, websites, marketing packages and feature articles. For examples of the work of our students visit our Creative Arts page, or go direct to our YouTube Channel. You can also follow the department via our Twitter feed.
The Media Studies department has grown rapidly in the last two years and from September 2015 we will offer GCSE, AS and A2 level courses in both Media and Film Studies. Alongside this, Moulsham provides hands-on experience of media production, with a clear focus on gaining industry standard professionalism, in the form of BTEC Level 3 in Creative Media at KS5.
Students who are interested in developing their studies of contemporary media debates at AS and A2 are advised that the following Blog contains posts on contemporary media debates, critical frameworks, past questions and examples of case studies.

As we commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Halifax Explosion, we tend to focus on the stories of the victims and survivors of the disaster.
One survivor is a 104-year-old ship — CSS Acadia — berthed at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic. Acadia served as a hydrographic survey and scientific ship from 1913 to 1969. Like many civilian government vessels, she was pressed into wartime service during the two world wars when she was commissioned in the Royal Canadian Navy as HMCS Acadia.
Acadia was built in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, England in 1913 by Swan, Hunter and Wigham Richardson Ltd. and was the first vessel specifically designed for hydrographic research in Canada's eastern and northern waters. When doing hydrographic surveys, she operated with a ship's crew of 51 and 15 hydrographic staff. The latter conducted the research required to produce modern charts of Canadian waters. By the 1950s, her crew and hydrographic staff called her affectionately "The Grand Old Lady."
In January 1917, she was commissioned as HMCS Acadia and was initially given patrol and escort duties, but in October 1917 was assigned as a guard ship in Halifax at the southeast entrance to Bedford Basin. Her naval crew of patrolmen were responsible for examining foreign-going vessels for contraband or spies.
It was here on Dec. 6 that her crew experienced the brunt of the explosion that was to devastate much of Halifax and Dartmouth, take nearly 2,000 lives and injure another 9,000. A Royal Naval rating, Frank Baker kept a diary about the event. Because they were not expecting any vessels for examination that day, Acadia's crew were washing down the paint work on the ship when, as Baker noted, "... the most awful explosion I ever heard or want to hear again occurred."
"The first thud shook the ship from stem to stern and the second one seemed to spin us all around, landing some under the gun carriage and others flying in all directions all over the deck. Our first impression was that we were being attacked by submarines, and we all rushed for the upper deck, where we saw a veritable mountain of smoke of a yellowish hue and huge pieces of iron were flying all around us."
Damage to Acadia was confined to the shattering of glass in the skylights above the galley and engine room and on the bridge and chart room. After securing their vessel and a tug that was moored alongside and tending to the minor injuries of their crew, Baker and his shipmates were sent ashore where he noted that "... it is beyond me to describe the absolute terror of the situation. For miles around nothing but a flaming inferno, charred bodies being dragged from the debris and those poor devils who were still lingering were piled into motor wagons and were conveyed to one of the improvised hospitals. We returned to our ship at 11 p.m. sick at heart with the appalling misery with which the city abounded."
Acadia continued her naval duties until 1919 when she again took up her hydrographic work. At the outbreak of the Second World War, she served in the RCN as a training, patrol and gunnery training vessel before returning to the Canadian Hydrographic Service. She was retired from active service in 1969 and remained alongside at the Bedford Institute of Oceanography until 1982 when her ownership was transferred to the Province of Nova Scotia for preservation and interpretation at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic.
Over the past 35 years Acadia has hosted thousands of visitors from all over the world who, with the efforts of museum staff interpret the ship's rich legacy as a scientific and naval vessel and as one of Canada's few floating National Historic Sites.
Over the past few years, public access below deck has been discontinued and the vessel is in need of extensive repairs and restoration. It is hoped that she can soon return to her full status as a museum ship celebrating Canada's rich marine heritage. This would be an appropriate recognition of not only the 100th anniversary of the Halifax Explosion but also the 150th birthday of our nation.

Belle Glade, FL Lakeside Medical Center, the Health Care District of Palm Beach County's teaching hospital, has been recognized by Florida Blue with a Blue Distinction® Center for Maternity Care designation as part of the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association's Blue Distinction Specialty Care program. Blue Distinction Centers are nationally designated hospitals that show expertise in delivering improved patient safety and better health outcomes, based on objective measures that were developed with input from the medical community.
Nearly four million babies are born in the U.S. annually, making childbirth the most common cause of hospitalization, and cesarean sections the most common operating room procedure, according to National Centers for Health Statistics and the Agency for Health Care Research & Quality (AHRQ). Reducing early elective delivery is an area of focus for the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). According to Health Affairs, elective inductions result in more cesarean deliveries and a longer maternal hospitalization.
The Blue Distinction Centers for Maternity Care program evaluates hospitals on quality measures for vaginal and cesarean delivery. Quality is key: only those hospitals that first meet Blue Distinction's nationally-established, objective quality measures will be considered for designation as a Blue Distinction Center+.
"We are honored that Lakeside Medical Center was recognized by Florida Blue for meeting the rigorous Blue Distinction Center+ quality and cost selection criteria for maternity care set by the Blue Distinction Specialty Care program," said Darcy J. Davis, Chief Executive Officer of the Health Care District of Palm Beach County. "Our rural, safety net hospital is committed to providing safe, quality patient care and is proud to have served generations of families in the Glades region."
Blue Cross and Blue Shield (BCBS) companies across the nation have recognized more than 1,000 hospitals as Blue Distinction Centers+ for Maternity Care. Hospitals recognized with this designation are assessed using a combination of quality information supplied by hospitals and cost measures derived from BCBS companies' medical claims.
"Lakeside Medical Center is committed to delivering high-quality maternity care and our obstetric nurses have received certification as lactation counselors," said Karen A. Harris, Vice President of Field Operations. Added Stephanie Dardanello, Hospital Administrator, "This national recognition is a testament to the dedication of our physicians and staff to meet the health care needs of our community."
Since 2006, the Blue Distinction Specialty Care program has helped patients find quality specialty care in the areas of bariatric surgery, cancer care, cardiac care, maternity care, knee and hip replacements, spine surgery, and transplants, while encouraging health care professionals to improve the care they deliver. Research shows that, compared to other hospitals, those designated as Blue Distinction Centers demonstrate better quality and improved outcomes for patients.

The film is a personal one for the director, Sanjay Patel, who told the Los Angeles Times, "If I could, I would go back to the 1980s and give my younger self this short. I want to normalize and bring a young brown boy's story to the pop culture zeitgeist." Here's a first look at the short:

Interior Design

Today, one of the biggest topics that people are talking about is cannabis and its legalization. Even the people who are thinking of legalizing it is wondering if there are actual benefits of letting cannabis enter our world legally. Some countries started legalizing it while there are some countries who see cannabis illegal.
As you probably know by now, whether a certain country legalize cannabis or not, they willo still continue to smoke and grow it. The problem in today's society is that not everyone know that there are actually benefits of legalizing cannabis. In fact, Kelsey Moghadaspour will talk about it below:
Whether or not it gets legalized, people are going to continue to smoke, sell and grow it. It might as well be made easier to do, and therefore less dangerous. With legalization of marijuana also comes better answers to the question: is it harmful? While it is still illegal, it is harder to run tests and experiments to try and find exactly how beneficial it can be.
Smoking controlled amounts has also been known to help with health problems such as glaucoma and epileptic seizures. It has also been known to not impair lung functions, but even help improve them, and it also helps decrease the symptoms of Dravet's Syndrome, a severe seizure disorder, and many other medical issues.
Legalizing marijuana would also open up more job and economic opportunities for people in the formal economy instead of the illicit market. Also, if it was legalized and controlled by the government, it would make and save the government quite a sum of money. Money would be saved because law enforcement officials that have been put on cases having to do with marijuana could then have their efforts and skills put towards cases much more important to the community's safety. State and local governments would also have new revenue coming in from taxing and regulating marijuana sales. Read full post here..

About Nikita
I'm a baker. I bake cakes.
Specifically, I bake wedding cakes.
I have my own business baking and decorating wedding cakes and other kinds of special occasion cakes, petit fours, cupcakes, and, basically, whatever my clients want.
The name of my business, and this blog site, is Jumping Brooms. Do you know about that old tradition from someplace and from sometime when newly married couples held hands and jumped over a broom? I really should look up that story because hopefully I'm not remembering some tradition that has nothing to do with weddings. But I think I'm right. So I created the Jumping Brooms name as a fun name for my business (and this blog site).
I used to work in the corporate world but I got really sick of that. I decided to pursue something that always sounded like fun to me—decorating cakes. I started this business about 15 years ago, and it has grown and prospered. Now I have five people that work with me.
I'm pretty hands-on with the decorating though. I have people who bake the cakes and do the base frosting. I have people to deliver the cakes. I have people who manage orders and the website and the social media part of my business.
But I always do the decorating. I have two people who I trust who also do decorating.
As far as the smaller items, the baked cookies and decorated cupcakes, those I'm comfortable delegating to others of my staff to decorate.
I always oversee every project, though. And I always look at every order before it ships out the door. If they aren't exactly right, then they don't go out the door. They have to be redone to my specifications and to my satisfaction. This is how I maintain quality control.
I never want to get bigger than I am now. I think if I got bigger than I am now, I would lose control of my product and quality. So the size that my business is at now is perfect for me. It keeps me busy but I am not one of those people that works 60 or 80 hours per week. I don't ever want to work like that again. I did that in the corporate world and that was enough.
So this is my blog about my company and my business and my products.
I will probably talk about recipes and about different ways of decorating. I will also probably show pictures and have a gallery and invite comments and ideas.
Welcome to Jumping Brooms!

After a chaotic week, Return of the Dead is now available for Kindle at Amazon. All the links on the Home page and the Books page should be updated to take you to the new sales listing. So please, grab a copy and I hope you enjoy the hell out of it!
I could tell you all about the hundreds of hours of work that went into making this sequel happen, but I hope some of that hard work will come through on the pages themselves. I know some of you guys have been waiting awhile for the sequel to Rise of the Dead, so I did my best to make that wait worth it.
Check it out!
The paperbacks are still going through the review process, but should be available later tonight or tomorrow morning. I will post an update as soon as they are live. And I should have some signed copies available to ship within the next week.
I'm going to kick back and enjoy a cold one tonight, and celebrate the birthday of my awesome wife & editor who inspired this story, but I have lots of books planned to get to work on in the coming weeks.
Once again, if you enjoy Return of the Dead and would like to see Revenge of the Dead become a reality this year, please take a moment and leave a review on Amazon and Goodreads. Thanks again to so many of you that have been supportive and patient.

Previously at the ICA - Events
14 Sep 2012
Sound is notably present in contemporary art, whether in the form of voice recordings, music tracks, skilfully constructed interventions or specific sound art pieces. The mixing of the immaterial heritage of sound and its materialisation in an exhibition, is an integral element of curatorial practice of Daniel Muzyczuk. He dicusses this subject in the context of his recent project co-curated with David Crowley Sounding the Body Electric at the Muzeum Sztuki in Lodz.
Mark Peter Wright is an award winning artist working in sound. Primarily concerned with "listening" and "place", his installations, publications and performances often encounter themes relating to nature, industry and site-specific histories of migration and abandonment. He is also the founder of Ear Room, an online resource exploring the use of sound in artistic practice; co-published by Sound & Music.
The discussion will be moderated by the ICA Student Forum members Jacob Meyers-Belkin and Sylwia Serafinowicz.
Supported by the Polish Cultural Institute in London.

As emergency triage and advanced interventions continue to grow more difficult, both in volume and in complexity, the average waiting time in hospital emergency departments continues to escalate. Patient dissatisfaction is only the most visible evidence of the growing crisis. Patients with lesser complaints and better insurance are seeking alternative treatment centers, leaving hospitals to deal with the more critically impaired and/or financially less desirable patients that deplete resources from already financially over-strained hospitals. Fast CAT is provides an enhanced triage environment where consistency, safety and efficiency are intertwined with increased patient satisfaction.
The Computer-Assisted Advanced Triage System delivers the accuracy, flexibility and reproducibility required to accelerate the flow of patients through the ED by initiating treatment earlier and in parallel with clinical assessment. The model of triage most often used today is Experiential: using an ED Nurse to separate patients based on accumulated experience. The most experienced ED Nurses are required to be out of the treatment areas separating the patients. Our Formulaic or formula based model is designed to replace the experiential model with one that surpasses its performance while correcting its major weaknesses. The most experienced nursing resources are kept in the treatment area, caring for patients, while maintaining efficient channeling of new patients in a disciplined, protocol directed, reproducible manner that is neatly integrated with clinical treatment records, documenting their care in detail.
A brief triage encounter may not be adequate to determine if the patient is stable enough for referral away from the ED and into a less acute treatment setting. Therefore, triage as it is traditionally performed should not be confused with the more detailed medical screening examination (MSE) required by the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA)… It should be noted that, with the proper prerequisites in place, our Fast CAT system provides the backbone and documentation for satisfaction of the EMTALA requirement.
Patients are separated at triage into groups that are based on their acuity or severity. The most severely injured or acutely ill patients are taken into the ED as soon as possible and those who are not as sick have to wait until space and resources are available for them. Those patients are often sent for further tests or studies, when they are seen for the first time, after waiting a variable amount of time. When the test and study results are available, the patient is seen again, often to be sent home with a referral and or treatment. This familiar and standard method of care we call a Two Touch Visit. Even in the most efficient EDs, that first wait can be an hour or two and the second wait is usually at least an hour.
In the One Touch Visit that is a natural result of the Fast CAT System, where constructive parallelism is used to reduce the total elapsed time for a particular patient's care utilizing inferential logic and customized intervention sets, patients' tests and studies are processed while they are waiting to be seen. When those secondary patient waits are folded into the patients' initial waits, significant improvements in efficiency and patient satisfaction appear.

The MetaTrader 4 terminal is a perfectly equipped traders' workplace that allows you to trade the financial markets. It provides the necessary tools and resources to analyze price dynamics of financial instruments, execute trade transactions and create & use automated trading programs (Expert Advisors). It represents the all-in-one concept and is the most popular trading terminal in the world.
The MetaTrader 4 terminal offers a number of impressive analytical tools. There are nine chart timeframes available for each financial instrument which permit detailed analysis of quote dynamics. More than 50 built-in indicators and tools help to simplify that analysis, enabling trends to be determined, various shapes and patterns to be identified, entry and exit points to be determined, etc. In addition, one object can be applied over another, which becomes very useful for implementing various trading systems. Need more? Charts of any instrument can also be printed for conducting "on paper" analysis.
The analytical resources offered by the MetaTrader 4 terminal are not limited to these examples. Should you need to use a specialized tool, you will often find it in the free-of-charge Code Base (Custom Indicators), failing which, it may already be available on the Internet or can be created using the in-built MQL4 language.
The Code Base also includes Expert Advisors that can completely automate your analytical and trading processes and/or you can develop your own Expert Advisors and use them in the MetaTrader 4 terminal.
MetaTrader 4 terminal supports all of the trading functions you will need. The terminal supports three types of orders: Stop Orders, Limit Orders and Market Orders, ensuring fully-fledged and flexible trading activities. Traders may use market orders, pending and stop orders, as well as Trailing Stops.
There are several ways to place trades within the terminal, including the ability to trade directly from a chart using the new "one-click" order entry panel.
The embedded tick chart is extremely useful for an accurate determination of entry and exit points. Automatic Alerts on trade positions is another handy tool to help you track all (un)favorable movements. The MetaTrader 4 trading arsenal therefore supports the effective implementation of all your trading strategies.
Security when executing trade instructions is of paramount importance for applications of this kind and MetaTrader 4 embodies the perfect solution. All data exchanged between the client terminal and the platform servers is 128-bit encrypted, which is more than sufficient to ensure the security of trade instructions. In addition to this, you can optionally enable the improved security system based on the algorithm for public-key cryptography (RSA). Information protected in this way is impossible to hack within a reasonable period time.
The MetaTrader 4 terminal comprises a whole range of functions, but it takes just a few minutes to get acquainted with them. Moreover, the terminal is supplied with a built-in 'Help' facility to answer all of your questions. The MetaTrader 4 terminal is both simple and convenient to use so that you can invest your time into your most important work - trading!
Due to the wide range of features and almost unlimited flexibility, MetaTrader 4 is probably the best client terminal available.

Rendering options
This allows you to choose between the EVR, VMR9 and VMR7 renderers that are used to display video in the player. It is recommended that you leave EVR or VMR9 selected, but some older graphics cards (or buggy drivers) may play "blank" video using EVR or VMR9 - in such cases choosing VMR7 may solve this problem. Note that VMR7 may use video overlay if your graphics card supports it.
You can also choose between the windowless or windowed mode of the VMR9 or VMR7. Windowless mode is preferred, but the older windowed mode (also referred to as compatibility mode) is sometimes useful for supporting older graphics cards.
Note that windowed mode may be the only mode which works in virtual machines such as VirtualBox and VMWare Fusion due to the limited capabilities of the virtual graphics drivers. For this reason the use of DVMP Pro on virtual machines is not recommended.
The Force Display Aspect Ratio option can be used to force the video to be displayed in the player as 16:9 or 4:3. You should find that nearly all of the supported video file formats play with the correct display aspect ratio, so we recommend that you leave this option un-checked.

Inside FERC Quotes David Applebaum on Discovery Issue in Enforcement Cases
David Applebaum, a partner in the energy regulation, markets and enforcement practice at Akin Gump, has been quoted by Inside FERC in the article "CFTC, FERC officials assess enforcement path ahead with new leadership." The article reports on a recent Energy Bar Association forum at which officials from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission spoke about the future of enforcement at both agencies.
Also discussed in the article is whether discovery should be allowed in Federal Power Act (FPA) enforcement cases that reach the federal courts. FERC, the article notes, has argued that courts should rely on the extensive administrative record developed at the commission for such cases, but recent decisions have found that the Federal Civil Rules of Procedure along with discovery are warranted.
Applebaum said the scope of discovery is a case-specific inquiry and will play itself out on a case-by-case basis. He added that parties in some of the cases are in the middle of negotiations over what sort of discovery should be permitted.
Due to the newness of these types of FPA cases, in comparison for instance to those pursued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, it is understandable, Applebaum added, that the government and the defendants are in court over how the civil litigation will proceed.
