Technology is continuously changing. The stuff we have today is a lot different from what we had 15 or 30 years ago, yesterday's top-of-the-line features becoming entry-level as altogether new technologies spring from obscurity to ubiquitousness. I became interested in these trends back when DVD was replacing VHS in the late 90's and, finding nowhere on the internet to learn about the devices of yesteryear, I started my own. It is interesting to see the evolution among brands and between model years, the relationship between budget, performance, and those in the middle. This database is designed to capture these trends and display them at a glance. Beyond my own interest, I hope this archive is helpful to those looking for information about old product lines and faded technologies.
After a few years offline, the Audio/ Video Component Archive was brought back in 2017. It's no longer part of the main website (linked at bottom of the page) so the design is different. There are huge coverage gaps which will be filled in over time. My goal was for it to span "from Beta to Blu-ray," offering information from the 80's, 90's, and 00's. Now it's just "from whenever to the present." Whenever I find the time to add more listings, anyway.
I don't collect the gear, just the catalogs (in PDF and JPG form, preferably). If you're looking for first-hand advice on a certain piece of equipment, I direct you to an audiophile forum such as AudioKarma or TapeHeads.net. If you'd like to buy or repair a unit I have links to search eBay and DuckDuckGo. This site is not affiliated with any seller. See my Terms of Use at the bottom of the page. Remember that old tape decks, CD players, etc will typically need new belts. And the greedy ones sell the remote seperately.
"How can I help?"
This archive won't be complete for quite a while. There are still gaping holes in its coverage with just little ol' me using bits of free time to close them. But those who wish to help out can get credit in the listings.
If you own a piece of equipment I don't have listed, or don't have much on, I welcome you to e-mail me about it. Include the kind of details you see for similar equipment (click here to view a list of categories, some of them have templates) and by all means take a picture. Ditto for product literature and old catalogs: please scan or take pictures of the pages. Please get my okay before you send a bunch of large images, though.
How to Read the Listings:
Brand/ Model Number: The model number of the component, listed without any dashes or spaces. Sometimes extra characters may be used (such as a "U" at the end of JVC VCRs' numbers, or a "MKII" to indicate "mark 2"). The information will generally reflect models sold in America. If I've come across alternate model numbers they're also listed. The KRC357D and KRC357L were the European and Asian equivalents to the KRC302.
Category/ Subcategory/ Year: The KRC302 was a "Car Cassette Receiver" from Kenwood's 1996 line, within the "CD Changer Control" subcategory. Not all listings have subcategories and the year isn't always known. A "?" after the year indicates an educated guess.
Related Models: The KRC202 was the next lower model from the same year, and the KRC402 the next one up. The KRC301 was its 1995 equivalent and the KRCS300 its replacement in 1997.
Notes: When I looked up the KRC357D and KRC357L versions of this receiver, I noticed some of the features were different.
Features & Specs: The data about the component. Underlined features are what it had added over, in this example, the KRC202. Sometimes features are taken away, these are put underneath in
Photo: If I find an image available, I'll scan/photoshop it and post it. Most images do not belong to me and are posted under Fair Use. A higher quality image, and the permission to use it, may be found among the sources I listed for that model. Pictures I've taken myself say public domain at the bottom of the graphic.
Price When New/ Sources: Price is how much the model cost when it was first sold (in U.S. Dollars). Clicking on the price will convert it to 2019 dollars. Then I list my sources. The source(s) for the photo appear in red text below it.
Link to this/ Show related: Some users link to database entries on other sites (thanks, by the way!). Clicking "Link to this" will take you to an easily linkable page with only the selected model. "Show related" will let you compare it to similar model numbers.

DALLAS – The 7-Eleven company runs a an intensive Robbery-Deterrence Program with one main goal: reduce the amount of money available in any store. This program is very effective in preventing many potential robbers from striking, but not those in need of – condoms.
Last Wednesday afternoon a man in a wheelchair armed with a baseball bat and a knife beat the cash register open but left it untouched. Instead he grabbed 10 boxes of condoms and one energy drink (only ONE energy drink for ten boxes?) before rolling out the door again. The Dallas Police is still looking for the man in the wheelchair at the time of writing.

Wheelchair Lift Eastaboga AL
How Stair Lifts Work
A stair lift is generally a chair that travels along and rail or track that is mounted to a stairway.
There is a motor within the base of the chair that is normally powered by a battery also within the base of the chair. The stair lift motor turns a gear that is meshed into a geared strip on the track or rail. When the gear turns the chair is moved along the geared strip. When the motor turns the gear the chair moves one direction, when the motor's direction is reversed the chair moves the opposite way.
Call/Send switches are used to move the stair lift chair without anybody being on it. This is particularly valuable if two people utilize the lift and the lift is at the opposite end of the track when a user wants to utilize it. the user just calls the lift to come to them utilizing a call/send switch. Another use of call/send switch is to send the lift away after usage. Some people don't like the look of the lift parked in the main living area of the house in Eastaboga and will send it to the opposite end when not in use. They simply call it back when needed.
Stair Lift Components
Although the design and style of stair lifts will vary between producers they all have some fundamental parts common to them all:
Track or Rail – The stair lift track supports the chair, provides a system (typically a geared strip) to move the chair and guides it up and down the stairs just as a train track guides a train.
Track Overruns – Some stair lifts provide the alternative of an overrun at either the top of the track, bottom of the track or both. The function of a stair lift track overrun is to move the user far from the stairway to securely access or dismount the stair lift in an area where, if they fall, they won't fall on the stairs.
Power supply – While many stair lifts are battery operated today all model will require a power supply to either charge the battery or power the unit directly in the case of non-battery powered systems. Non-battery powered stair lifts draw a lot of power and typically require a dedicated circuit.
Call/Send Controls – Call/Send controls are usually installed on the wall near each end of the stair lift track to supply a method for a user to call the chair to them or send it away when not needed. They can be either cordless or wired to the lift depending upon the model.
Seat – The stair lift seat is simply a seat for the user to rest on while using the lift. Depending upon the model it may swivel at the top and/or bottom of the track and will normally fold up out of the way when not in use.
Seat Belt – As in a car the stair lift safety belt is planned to hold the user securely seated on the seat while the lift remains in usage.
Foot Rest – The foot rest of the stair lift is a security function to prevent the the users feet from striking the steps while using the lift and a comfort feature to support the user's feet when resting on the seat. The foot rest will have switches constructed into them to stop the lift should it hit anything on the stairway and will flip up out of the way when the lift is not in use.
Motor – The motor that drives a stair lift chair along the track is found in the base of the seat.
Transmission – Since the motor turns at expensive a speed to securely move the stair lift the track at type of transmission is utilized to minimize the speed while increasing the power available.
Battery Charger – Battery powered stair lifts should have a battery charger of some sort to keep the battery charged. The battery chargers are generally found under the track or near one end of the track. The battery charger works automatically with no action required by the user.
Battery – The batteries used in stair lifts are fairly expensive and found within the base of the seat near the motor. They will have to be replaced at some time however their life expectancy is determined in years and thier replacement should not be a big concern.
Ways To Measure For Your Wheelchair Stair Lift Setup In Eastaboga
Measurement 1: Stand at the top of stairs and extend the tape measure down to the landing, letting it rest on edge of each tread. The tape needs to not droop or bend along the way. Record the distance from the edge of the upper landing to where completion of the measuring tape rests on the landing at the bottom of the stairs.
Measurement 2: Measure from the edge of the upper landing (like Measurement 1) to the edge of the very first stair's tread at the bottom.
Measurement 3: Measure the width of your stair's treads.
Measurement: Measure from the edge of the very first stair at the bottom to the wall (or door), if there is one.
Measurement 5 through 7 Measurements 5-7: These are the tread measurements.
Measurement 8: Measure from the top step to the closest door, wall or other obstruction at the top of the stairs.

An ongoing problem that not a lot of people think about is the amount of trash being produced and left on our Earth. Many of us leave our trashcans on the side of the curb and see that it is empty the next morning and that is all we care about. Well where does that trash go? Trash is becoming a larger and larger problem for us and the environment. America accounts for more than one third of the waste in the world where most of that trash, even if its recyclable or biodegradable, ends up in landfills or in the ocean. Let's look at some facts about trash:

Did Rich Coleman tell the truth about BCLC and Paragon?
Tomorrow, April 9th, is the date city sponsored hearings resume on Paragon's zoning application for a new casino at BC Place Casino. One of the important issues is the process for selection of the casino in PavCo's quick step RFP process. Was the process fair or did the BC Liberal government grease the wheels for Paragon from the start?
A year ago, in the legislature gaming minister Rich Coleman claimed that no work was done by the BC Lottery Corporation in advance of the BC Pavilion Corporation's March 2009 Request for Expressions of Interest.
It's an important claim because any due diligence on the part of PavCo and BCLC would have given Paragon a leg up in what is supposed to be a fair process with the same starting line for all potential proponents.
Here's what Coleman told Gaming critic Shane Simpson in the Legislature April 15, 2010:
"Through the process, the lottery corporation wasn't involved at all. The RFP went out. The proponents would make their submissions. PavCo would then enter into a memorandum of understanding with who they thought the selected proponent was. At that point they would ask the lottery corporation for some confirmation of some financial data or of the proponent, and that's the only involvement they would have.
"They weren't involved in the process to design the RFP, do the RFP, say who could go, what type of business would go there — none of that. "
New documents released by the BC Lottery Corporation to BC Place critic Spencer Chandra Herbert raise serious questions about Coleman's claim. They appear to show BCLC had a much greater interest in the process than Coleman let on, meeting to discuss Paragon right after the city vote on the BC Place redevelopment proposal in November of 2008.
More importantly, that was followed up with a January 30th meeting between BCLC President Michael Graydon and BCLC Vice President responsible for casino development Darryl Schiewe and BC Pavilion Corporation Chair David Podmore and CEO Warren Buckley in the Vancouver Convention Centre Development project boardroom. That's two months before the Request for Expressions of Interest was issued.
BCLC had and still has only two business interests in the City of Vancouver – Paragon and Hastings Racetrack. The racetrack is of no interest to Pavco, so that leaves one topic of discussion at that January 2009 meeting.
Kevin Gass or some other representative of BCLC is likely to be at City Hall Tuesday night. Why not ask him to come clean. Because the minister responsible apparently didn't.
This was first published on Ian Reid's The Real Story blog.

Devastating Wallin audit puts all political parties in the crosshairs
So this is the venerable Senate of Canada, headed towards the Fall of 2013: An ever-exploding, metastasizing mess, rippling outward in concentric rings, tainting everything it touches. With Sen. Pamela Wallin now under RCMP scrutiny alongside her erstwhile colleague, Mike Duffy, and with her reputation too in tatters, savaged by an audit clinical in its detail, it's difficult to see where it ends.
Certainly, any hope the Conservatives had of putting their annus horribilis behind them is now slim to gone. Deloitte's report on Wallin, released Tuesday, immediately pushes Parliamentary spending reform and broader issues of corruption back to the top of the agenda. It begins with the Senate, but won't end there.
As so often seems the case, it's the hurried attempts at rectification that do the most harm. Consider this reference, from section 188.8.131.52 of Deloitte's audit: "Eighty-three calendar entries were identified only residing in the Senator's 2013 calendar which referred to calendar entries. These 83 entries referred to calendar entries (appointments etc.) predating April 26, 2011. As these entries did not exist in offline calendars, it appears they were made sometime in 2013. A last written date was indicated for 77 out of the 83 entries in February, April, May and June 2013."
And this: "Thirty-four calendar entries were identified in the Senator's 2013 live calendar which referred to calendar entries prior to October 28, 2011, where the subject lines of the calendar entries (appointments etc.) had been modified or changed from the entry that existed in the offline calendars."
And finally, this: "Three hundred and ninety one calendar entries appeared both in the 2011 and 2012 offline calendars, however were not located in the Senator's 2013 calendar. We were unable to determine the dates on which these items were deleted from the live calendar, as our analysis was not performed on a forensic image of the calendars. Many of the items that were deleted were in respect of calendar entries for Senator Wallin's activities on various boards of directors."
The auditors may as well have added: The prosecution rests. Monday, Wallin took pains to explain these discrepancies. "I was advised part way through the process that I should only include information relevant to the actual expenses being claimed. So we formatted our calendar accordingly…"
"Re-formatted" would have been a more apt verb. Appended to the audit is a longer apologia. In this letter, dated July 26, Wallin's lawyer Terrence O'Sullivan asserts the changes were made on the advice of Sen. David Tkachuk, then the Conservative chair of the Senate committee on internal economy. "… taking what seemed to be perfectly logical advice from Senator Tkachuk to heart, the decision was made to create spreadsheet calendars for Deloitte which contained as much information on Senate related activities as possible but which did not contain information regarding events unrelated to the Senate…"
Setting aside that Tkachuk denies he gave such advice: Logical? An official faces a forensic examination, intended to determine how much of $532,508 in claimed travel between January, 2009 and September, 2012, was legitimate. The crux, surely, must be a comparison of that which is personal, that which is partisan, that which is business-related but not Senate-related, that which is both partisan and Senate-related, and that which is purely Senate-related and in the broader public interest. How, logically, could deleting "events unrelated to the Senate" facilitate such a comparison?
Tkachuk, who stepped down as head of the committee in June citing poor health, faces new questions of his own. O'Sullivan asserts in his letter that Tkachuk told Sen. Wallin "he would have allowed all the claims (with the possible exception of 1 or 2) but that he had been 'voted down'" by other MPs. In his appended response, Tkachuk flatly denies that. No surprise, there: Wallin's claim is the political equivalent of a drive-by shooting, suggesting that, far from being an outrider, she was adhering to established practice.
And that gets us to the nub of the broader issues now raised. "Senator Wallin indicated … that discussions with Senator Tkachuk early in her tenure regarding various roles she had (such as Chancellor of the University of Guelph) confirmed that travel expenses to such events would be eligible for reimbursement," the audit reads. "In this regard, we note that we have not assessed or reviewed any travel expense claims by other Senators, and therefore cannot comment on whether activities such as those undertaken by Senator Wallin were or were not undertaken by other Senators… "
It's an echo of earlier hints, emerging from the Duffy file, that he'd been led to believe, or allowed to assume, that he had carte blanche with the Senate credit card. Here's what that demands: A broader, deeper examination of Senate spending, and beyond that of the relationship between political parties, fundraising, their use of public resources, and public institutions.
They are all now paddling frantically in this direction, for lack of any better alternative. They can do little but keep paddling, and hope to keep ahead of the wave.

Today we visited the site of the Charleston Naval Yard Historic district. The Navy Yard construction began in 1901 becoming one of the most significant Naval installations at that time containing around 57 structures. Most of the yard is now in private ownership. At one time hundreds of thousands were employed, 256 ships built. It was closed in 1996 due to budget constraints and downsizing.

Besides the Yard there was the hospital district which is mostly in disrepair. There are some buildings being privately used for different businesses. The area consisted of 32 buildings. A prior hospital constructed in 1917 was demolished in 1922 with the existing structure built prior to and during WWII. The hospital continued to serve the base until 1972.
|Hospital Building
We spent most of our time exploring the Officer's Quarters Historic District located at the intersection of Everglades and Navy Way. In 1895 the City purchased lands that were part of the Turnbull and Retreat Plantations and a public park was designed named for the Chicora Indians on the Cooper River. In 1901 the Navy purchased the property and housing for the officers consisting of 28 structures was developed. It seems today that many of these structures are being restored and sold to private citizens. Driving into the park you pass this magnificent home that was once the headquarters and commandant's residence.

Yes, can you believe that I had never been to Paris before this trip? I was anxiously looking forward to our four days in the City of Lights. I had my list of places I would like to go, and things that I wanted to see. I also knew that I wouldn't be able to do it all so I gave myself permission to deviate from the schedule I set up. Of course I had to save some things to see and do for my second trip to Paris.
For our hotel stay I made our reservations at the Radisson Metropolitan in the 16th Arrondissement using my Club Carlson points more than a year before our trip. Previously with Club Carlson if you booked a reward stay, your last night was free. In other words, they didn't even charge you points. Consequently I booked two nights under my name (remember one of those nights was free) and two nights under Blogger Hubby's account. We would spend four nights at the hotel in total but only paying points for two nights.
Before we went to Paris I found out that SPG purchased our hotel and it would be in their luxury collections. I was concerned that they wouldn't honor our reservation but they assured me they would.
A month before we left the United States I had made train reservations and purchased our TGV (fast train) tickets to go from Lyon to Paris. I again turned to The Man in Seat 61 to explain the differences between the trains. He had recommended purchasing our tickets through the Captain train website which I did. The Captain Train website has since been taken over by Train Line but it is the same format and I had no problems purchasing and printing out my tickets. If you plan to go to Europe, for many routes it is much less expensive if you purchase your tickets 60 or 90 days in advance. For other smaller, local trains it didn't seem to matter and we would purchase them at the train station either at the kiosk or at the ticket counter once we knew definitively what our plans were. Track information is not posted until 20 minutes prior to the train's arrival so no sense in asking people which track you'll be departing from. Also, since we departed Lyon from Part-Dieu station there was assistance for those with mobility problem as as was the case with our traveling companions. Her husband went into the office, told them where we were waiting and an attendant came out with a wheel chair and took her to the correct track and helped them on. If you need help and it is available, take full advantage of it.
For those who are unfamiliar with train travel in Europe, once you have your ticket, you need to validate it prior to boarding at the machine on the platform. Conductors will still come by and check your ticket to see if it has been validated and if it hasn't, there is a huge fine to pay.
On the Train Line website, which is in English, you can choose which type of seating you wanted and which class. We traveled first class (wouldn't do it again), sat in the upper deck for better viewing and chose single seats facing each other. Across the aisle were two seats together either facing forward or facing each other like we were. We had a small table between us with a small lamp.
I emailed the concierge at our hotel asking for ways to get to the hotel from the Gard Lyon, the train station that we would be arriving in. Obviously the options were to hire a driver, taxi, subway or bus. He gave us the prices for these options. We chose to take the bus as it would drop us off about 2 blocks from the hotel and would be inexpensive. We bought a book of ten bus/subway passes called a caret. If you plan on using public transportation, I would recommend buying a caret as it will save you time. For us taking a bus was easy as we only had carry-on luggage (me) and a slightly larger case for Blogger Hubby as we allowed room for souvenirs in his suitcase. The ride took a lot longer than I thought, about an hour, but while we were traversing Paris we got a good orientation to the city and I got my first glimpses of the Eiffel Tower. Blogger Hubby is always a little nervous about making sure we know that we are on the correct bus/train, that we are going in the right direction and that we know where to get off. Fortunately I have no qualms about asking people. I found if you have a smile, and ask if they speak "English" people are willing to help you as much as they can. I'll tell you this now – we did not get lost once nor did we get on the wrong train or bus or miss our stop.
We got off the bus and headed for our hotel, now called Le Metropolitan, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel. The hotel is shaped like a triangular between two streets. I knew that European hotels were small but when they took us to our room, I couldn't believe how small it was. Both of us could not be up and walking around at the same time. There was a small chair in the corner but immediately behind it was a floor lamp and if you sat down the back of your head hit the floor lamp. You couldn't pull the chair out because there was only about a foot's length between the chair and the corner of the bed. When we asked if there was another room they told us no and that we should be happy as this was an upgrade.
I did not know how we would be able to spend 4 nights in this room. That night I sent a tweet out to @SPG assist, sent them the pictures and told them how uncomfortable it was. Next morning there was a knock on our door and they moved us across the hallway. This room even had a couch in it – certainly not luxurious but a much nicer room. I would stay away from room 226 and instead ask for room 230.
There is a restaurant on the first floor and it looked nice though we didn't try it. I believe the breakfasts there are about $30 each. Instead we would go to a pastierrie and purchase our freshly made French pastries. Around the corner and down the street from the hotel was a Casino – which is a French supermarket. That's where we purchased our yogurts, sliced meats, cheeses and wine.
For being branded a "luxury hotel" it did not feel very luxurious to us with the awful royal purple rippled carpeting in the hallway, elevators that didn't work half the time, the lounge area that had tables where we played cards sometimes and looks better in these pictures than it did in real life. The lobby is very nice and the staff is friendly and helpful and they met all our needs particularly when we asked for numerous directions, which subway stop to use or how to get to train stations.
As you walk out the door and basically walk straight you will see the Eiffel Tower. I gasped when I saw it all lit up in the evening. This is the view as we were about 50 meters from the hotel.
Nevertheless we are very thankful that we had the points to stay here and that we booked it while we were still able to get one night free through the Club Carlson program.
Next post will be our sightseeing adventures and how we saved some money.

Finally this time, I SING!!!
Because I'm not gifted with an outstanding voice (a decent way of saying I have a terribly unpleasant voice), I have to do more than just singing - backing and harmonizing myself. And to enhance the visual effect, instead of making six windows in a video, I cloned myself and it looks really like there're six me in a room.
Compared to my usual cover videos that have 2 or 3 me, this one is really hardcore.
Thank God they blended nicely in the end.
Leftmost: Low Background Vocal
Left: Low Melody Harmony
Middle top: Bass
Middle bottom: Main Melody
Right: High Melody Harmony
Rightmost: High Background Vocal
Enjoy, and if you feel like judging my voice, just go ahead, I know my voice sucks, but it takes efforts to produce this all by myself.

Oh boy there are a lot of these. Um, how about 'Times my big mouth has gotten me in trouble lately'? Because otherwise we could be here all year.
1) Calling the sales clerks at Bath and Body Works 'Soap Nazis'. They didn't find it nearly as funny as I did. In my defense, I can't walk in there without at least 2 of them swarming me and throwing gobs of lotion and/or soap at me.
2) Running into an aquaintance I don't particularly care for and haven't seen in quite some time. She says "Oh, you had a baby!" To which I reply with "No, actually I just stole him from some lady at Sears. Shhhh, don't tell. Hey, would you like to be my alibi?" Some people have no sense of humor.
3) Suggesting to another customer at Gap Kids that perhaps she should invest in some type of child restraint system for her kids. "Hey I hear they make straight jackets for kids. They're not just for the crazies anymore." I like kids, I really do, I just don't like parents who let their kids run wild because to teach them any manners might harm their fragile little egos. Well, I might harm their fragile little egos if they kick me or throw that damn ball at me one more time. And thanks sales clerk, but that wasn't your fault. I walked by 30 minutes later and those little hellions were swinging from those little security detectors by the doors.
4) In response to the cop asking me if I knew why he pulled me over........
"Because you couldn't catch up with the other guy?"
At least he had a sense of humor and didn't give me a ticket.
Well, that's from this week and look! It's only Monday.
I guess I just don't think before I speak sometimes. Usually when I'm really annoyed. Sometimes it works for me (no speeding ticket!) sometimes it doesn't (I guess it's the body shop for me from now on!).

Well, I guess I am in for a surprise….

MU Extension > Orientation > New employee orientation > Support team
Expand all | Collapse all
We want you to succeed and become a productive member of the MU Extension family. As a new faculty member, you will have a team of professional staff who will provide support to you during the orientation process.
Normally, your support team will be identified and agreed upon by the regional director, program director and orientation coordinator before you arrive on the job. Enjoy the opportunities you have to meet and work with your support team members. They are all interested in seeing you succeed in your new position with MU Extension.
Orientation coordinator
Megan Martin is the orientation coordinator who will meet with you on your first day to welcome you to University of Missouri Extension. She will provide an overview of our organization and share our new faculty orientation notebook. Megan will also show you around campus and take you to lunch to meet with your program leader and/or state specialist mentor so that you can begin to get familiar with the MU Extension program.
Under Megan's guidance, you will also have the opportunity to meet with staff benefits to answer your questions there.
Within the first few months of your employment, a member of the New Faculty Development Team will make an appointment to come to your office to follow up with you, to answer your questions, and to determine how you are progressing in your orientation to University of Missouri Extension.
Regional director
Your regional director is your direct supervisor. Headquartered in regional offices, there are eight regional directors in Missouri. He/she is responsible for your orientation and will schedule to meet with you soon after your arrival in the region.
Program director
University of Missouri Extension has a director for each of its five areas of program emphasis. The program directors oversee system-wide program development and evaluation. Your program director heads up the extension programming for the area in which you specialize. If the schedule allows, he/she will join you for lunch on your first day to welcome you and share his/her perspective on program development in MU Extension.
County program director
Each Missouri county has a county program director who is responsible for working with the county extension council (elected representatives) to oversee the county's extension program, its budget and the everyday workings of MU Extension in the county. The CPD in the county where your office is located is key to helping you get acquainted with the local people, office procedures and culture. He/she will also help you find your way around. Sometimes it can get pretty lonely out there as a new faculty member, so don't hesitate to ask questions. Get to know your co-workers and learn as much as you can about what makes the local area tick. The CPD will also help you get to know one of our most valuable assets, the office secretary. Ask the CPD to take you to a council meeting and visit with the extension council members. Your success may hinge upon the relationships you develop at the local level.
Regional mentor
Mentoring is an important part of your orientation to University of Missouri Extension. Your regional director will appoint a colleague within your region or nearby to help you learn the ropes and to provide the support necessary for you to succeed. You will meet with your mentor within the first couple of weeks of your employment and hopefully maintain an ongoing relationship with that person. Use that person to ask any questions about the job and to learn about the complexities of the MU Extension processes and systems.
If, for some reason, your mentoring relationship does not work out, please contact your regional director or the orientation coordinator. After a few weeks on the job, you may have identified another person whom you relate to better. It is possible, upon request, to assign another mentor.
Program coach(es)
Programming is central to your role as an MU Extension specialist in the field. Therefore, part of your orientation will center around training with other specialists who have similar program responsibilities as yours. Your regional director will identify the co-workers whom you will schedule to visit in their offices. These visits will provide an opportunity for you to see a co-worker in action, to learn how they develop programs, how they interact with clientele, and to share ideas for educational materials, marketing, evaluation, etc. Be sure to make your visit armed with questions about how someone else does a job similar to yours.
State specialist mentor
Your regional director and program leader will identify a state specialist to mentor you from the academic department on campus. Meeting with your state specialist mentor will give you an opportunity to learn about statewide programs, educational material available to support your efforts in the field and campus resources to assist you in your programming. This person can be invaluable in helping you to get off to a good start.

Well, finished another one and I have two more sketches on the way that I just need to finish up. I'm really excited with how fast these sketches have been coming out.
Either way, here's Annie, the Dark Child. I have to say that while I am not in love with Annie's model, I adore her character design. The creepy, evil little girl who can nuke you to death has always been appealing. However, if given the choice I would prefer another mage as Annie, I feel, does not scale well during the game. True, she definitely packs that punch early game but I always try to go for characters that scale better, because when push comes to shove and its that 70 minute game, that's when it counts.
However, I absolutely adore Annie. She's a very good starting character and I always suggest her to a lot of friends starting out, she's a lot of fun in concept and spells, not to mention it allows you to master combos and one of the easiest in the game, as well as timing her stuns and learning how to last hit with her Q. Overall, she's a great character.

I wasn't like every other kid, you know, who dreams about being an astronaut, I was always more interested in what bark was made out of on a tree. Richard Gere's a real hero of mine. Sting. Sting would be another person who's a hero. The music he's created over the years, I don't really listen to it, but the fact that he's making it, I respect that. I care desperately about what I do. Do I know what product I'm selling? No. Do I know what I'm doing today? No. But I'm here, and I'm gonna give it my best shot.
Reverend Knick: Wise Guy & Writer
Being a Holy Man, my job here at TheBostonJam is to offer guidance to you New England fans who may get "lost" in some of the cow shit sports coverage here in the Northeast region. Some of you may think I'm a prick, and want to tie me to the back of a runaway wagon hoping that it eventually goes off of a cliff. And you know what, I'm ok with that. Because at the end of the day, "Goodfellas" is still a better movie than "The Departed", no matter how you slice it. Church!

I eat, sleep, and breathe the Boston Bruins. Well not literally, that would be weird and uncomfortable for everyone. I feel in another life I was on the Bruins, probably an unproductive 3rd liner, but hey, I was there. I enjoy making left turns, making obvious comments about what people are wearing/doing, saying Boom after things I say that I feel the need to say Boom after, and of course trying to push shopping carts into the things in the parking lot that they go in from long distances. I like the Celtics. I enjoy the sound of the shoes on the court. I like the Red Sox. I'd like to see more of them wearing red socks. I like the Patriots, football is sweet. BOOM.
Big Jim Murray: Writer/98.5 The Sports Hub Host
I like bitchin' about stuff. And Kelly's Tartar Sauce. That shit's gold.
Guar: Writer
People always ask me, "Guar what's the greatest accomplishment in sports history?". Many people might say it's Joe Dimaggio's 56 game hit streak, or Ted Williams 406 batting average. Maybe the Celtics 17 championships, or Brett Favre's consecutive game streak. However, the greatest accomplishment in sports history is that the Undertaker has a perfect 21-0 record at Wrestlemania. This record will go down as the greatest streak in all of sports.

Pats, Ranger, Yankees, Michigan Football, and occasional wager maker on various "events". I love Doc Emrick, I think fighting with visors is stupid, Brady over Manning, I look forward to Country fest every year for the entire year and I tweet a lot.

Take a well known and respected, old time Alaska Outfitter throw in a website, add a blog for good measure and do you know what you get? Yep, you got it. A nightmare. Between the experienced Outfitter, website and blog one may think that it would be simple matter to just explain how it all works, how important it is and that would be all there is to it.
Well. You would be mistaken. Seriously mistaken.
Most likely it would take a better person than I can ever hope to be to forget a conversation about the blog post I was trying to write for our 3rd Anniversary online when this particular Outfitter said to me "What's a blog?" After over three years and almost 400 blog posts with at least one each month from the Boss himself, he asks me "What's a blog?"
Another stumbling block we keep tripping over is the fact that this old time Alaska Guide and Outfitter is used to some pretty hands-on, shove it around, twist it and being a fix what's broken type of guy. Technology seems to offend him on a level I have thus far, been unable to reach.
In the spirit of full-disclosure I am forced to admit that I get pretty impatient with his seemingly unnatural and uncalled for mental block towards anything to do even remotely with a computer! (Sigh.) He does like to share his stories and history, thank goodness, and that itself tends to calm me right back down.
There is nothing like listening or reading one of the stories he shares with us all for making you really see and feel how it must have all been before there was anything at all here, except for the creativity and a survival instinct to not only keep things moving but moving forward and growing.
On April 23rd, 2014, my 22nd Anniversary here with Pioneer Outfitters and at the right hand of Master Guide Terry Overly and as familiar, comfortable and easy as I am with this "Living Legend" as my very young son called him once, I am never unaware or blasé of how blessed I truly am at being a part of this life.
I find myself at times, musing the funny twists and turns of fate that brought this simple farm girl all the way from New York to be a part of a world that really has little room for women and little use for the same, outside of the kitchen.
The Outfitter, Website and Blog
On April 23rd I will share with you the most important step I have yet to take with all the meaning and strength of Be Fearless behind it and myself. It will be shared across the website and blog, across all of our Social Media accounts and as far as I can reach with the help and support of all those I can reach and touch with the message that needs to be shared.
There is so much happening! Some like the Fearless Filmmakers Class that will be spending time with us in the up coming summer and the new Fitness Adventure are huge and important steps for our Team here at Pioneer Outfitters. Steps that we believe are being taken in the direction we hope to lead others in; a direction that passes on what we've learned to help others grow in the directions they aim for too.
Some of what 2014 have brought already to us that is continuing to unfold and develop; I blush to say that I cannot share with you yet. (But I will! At the very FIRST opportunity!) I can share this: It is big! Really, really big, folks. Stay tuned. (seriously)
So, stay safe in whatever you are up to in the coming week and know that you are not alone.

Do you need to randomise rows in Excel? I needed to so I thought I would document my process in case anyone else is looking to do the same. I was surprised there is no built in function do to this.. but have no fear there is a work around! There is a video at the bottom of this post if you'd prefer to to watch rather than read.
1. Create a new column to the end of your table
2. Enter to the header text "Randomise"
3. In the first row enter the formula =RAND()
4. Drag this cell down to the last row in your table
5. Select the headers of your table
6. Click data > filter
7. Sort the "Randomise" column by smallest to largest
That's it! You have randomised the rows in your table. If you want to keep randomising the rows just keep click sort column by smallest to largest and it will redo it.

Professional photographers in the media access section may have gotten better face photos than I did at Prinsjesdag 2015, but no where on the web will you find more views of The Netherlands Parade of Hats. Enjoy!
Some of these shots are blurry or edged in by folks who stood in front of me, but even this allows us to learn something. Hats shot from a distance were typically on those associated with the Senate. House members and their guest entered right beside our risers. So who do you think had the better hats?

Developed to contain only 100% plant-based extract, Garcinia Clean XT delivers Hydroxycitric Acid, which appears to suppress appetite, inhibit fat storage and production, and increase serotonin levels to aid in successful weight loss.
What Is Garcinia Clean XT?
Found primarily in India and Southeast Asia, Garcinia Cambogia is derived from a pumpkin shaped fruit. Hydroxycitric Acid (HCA), the active ingredient, is found in the fruit's rind and is linked to increased metabolic processes for improved body composition.
A recent study indicates that Garcinia Cambogia supplementation might reduce overall weight and LDL cholesterol levels, as well as lower triglyceride counts and increase healthy cholesterol levels. HCA appears to decrease appetite by inhibiting Citrate lyase, an enzyme crucial in the process that converts glucose from carbohydrate consumption into fat.
Garcinia Clean XT is a plant-based extract that suppresses appetite, encourages fat burning, and hinders the creation of fat deposits, effectively functioning as an all-natural fat burner when used in conjunction with a healthy lifestyle.
How Does Garcinia Clean XT Work?
Users are directed to ingest 2 capsules approximately 30-60 minutes before a meal. The manufacturer warns that taking this supplement on a full stomach might decrease its effectiveness.
Each serving contains 60% HCA without the addition of any fillers or artificial ingredients. Garcinia Clean XT is made in an FDA registered and GNP certified lab.
Research indicates that this product is most effective when utilized with a healthy diet and exercise program. Those under the age of 18 or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding should not use this product.
HCA is responsible for the fat burning effects of Garcinia Cambogia by halting the production of enzymes involved in fat storage and by facilitating the conversion of excess calories into glycogen, rather than fat. This has the additional advantage of increasing energy, allowing the user to expend more throughout the day, which is key to losing weight.
Similarly, HCA is linked to an increase in serotonin levels, which is the neurotransmitter that makes humans feel happy and stabilizes mood; by contrast, a serotonin deficiency is associated with depression and anxiety. With a boost to serotonin levels, users are less likely to overeat or rely on emotional eating to avoid distressing feelings.
Garcinia Clean XT contains 100% pure extract without additional ingredients or common allergens.
Garcinia Clean XT Pricing
Phenom, the manufacturer, is currently running a promotion that allows interested consumers to claim a free trial bottle of 60 capsules. The only fee is $4.95 for shipping and handling, which turns into a monthly membership subscription 15 days after the initial order for $84.71 per month. Cancellation appears to be relatively easy as long as customers complete the process before their card is charged.
Should You Use Garcinia Clean XT?
Losing weight is difficult for many reasons and while this product is transparent about not functioning as a miracle cure for body fat, research indicates that there is a possibility that it might help. For this reason, coupled with the low-cost trial, Garcinia Clean XT might be useful for those desiring to change body composition and reduce body fat.

Last week we discussed the short case for Herbalife from the perspective of Ackman who has been pounding the table that the company is a giant pyramid scheme. The main concern with his argument is that the data from Herbalife dealers and buyers is not there to support it.
While the case is compelling and he has rallied other investors, raised concerns from certain organizations, and even roused some in government, no definitive evidence has emerged. In fact, Herbalife (NYSE: HLF) stock has rallied since the short case was initially made and investors like Carl Icahn have had great returns on their investments.
Belgian Ruling Positive for the Company
This week, there was some positive news for Herbalife on an investigation into the company as a pyramid scheme. The Belgian Court of Appeal reversed a previous ruling by a lower court that the company's sale model is in compliance with Belgian law. A previous judgment that the company was operating a pyramid scheme was reversed. Management states the company always believed the ruling would be reversed and that it was based on factual errors.
As a result of the ruling, the stock jumped to new highs:
Speculation That Icahn Will Reduce His Position
Also this week, the investment of Icahn has come under increased interest and speculation that he will sell, which could weigh negatively on the shares. Herbalife issued a statement that it is not aware of any plans by Mr. Icahn to reduce his position in Herbalife, which through its mere issuance indicates at least some on Wall Street expect it.
Icahn held 17% of the outstanding shares as of September 30, 2013 and requires a volume-weighted average of $73/share for five consecutive days in order to sell. He also had the ability to sell after February 28, 2014 but the former of these two provisions was met earlier this week. He has over a 200% return on the investment in Herbalife, and many investors would lock in some gains at this point.
The question is: how much will he lock in? To answer that we must look at the prospects for the stock and company over the next 12 months.
Global Expansion Provides Fundamental Case to Buy
The global expansion of Nutrition Clubs have pushed the shares higher in 2013 and will continue to act as the primary driver of fundamental growth. In South America, volumes increased by 32% in Q3 2013. In China and EMEA, volumes were up by 71% and 19%, respectively. The opportunity in the emerging markets is significant according to management. Rising incomes and lifestyles, and a lack of a significant retailer presence for quality nutritional supplements and vitamins, results in an underserved market that fits perfectly into Herbalife's business model.
In addition, the U.S. market continued to grow at 10% despite some negative headlines on the company. The positive U.S. results were driven by the improved recruiting trends. The company's growth rate in the U.S. could accelerate further if the investigations and pyramid accusations are put to bed. This, along with international growth, could deliver revenue growth in the mid-to-upper teens for Herbalife.
Valuation Indicates a 10 to 15% Overhang
Management also guided for 2014 sales growth in the 9 to 11% range and for EPS of $5.45 to $5.65. Current EPS consensus for 2014 is for EPS of $5.73 and EBITDA of $950 million on sales of 5.25 billion dollars. The stock currently trades at 13.3x FY14 consensus earnings.
Tupperware, which also distributes its product in a similar manner, trades at 14.9x FY14 EPS. On an EV/EBITDA basis, Herbalife trades at 9.3x versus Tupperware's 11.7x TTM.
There are some clear warts on Herbalife and its stock, mainly the lack of audited financials that were promised at the end of September and the ongoing SEC investigation that started early this year. There is the potential that both of those are resolved and two more overhangs are removed from the stock. In particular, the audited historical financials are expected from PwC over the next month. However, it is possible that those, and/or the investigation, go against the company, and at least remain headwinds.
There is a discount implicit in the share price of Herbalife behind the pyramid scheme accusations. If these concerns are largely put to rest, there is probably upside to Herbalife shares to the range of $85 to $90 based on the overhang being removed. In addition, it could also help sales growth accelerate in the U.S. with that headwind removed leading to an acceleration in EPS growth and further multiple expansion. On the other hand, if the accusations are even partially confirmed at this point, there is very significant downside risk. The shares could quickly get cut in half.
For investors, this is a stock that requires doing as much homework on sales as possible. That may mean actually talking to some dealers and distributors and getting a feel from them. If through this and other analysis, the pyramid scheme case does not appear to be supported, then buy the shares.
What are your thoughts on the revelations this week in Europe and the potential impact on the investigation? Are you a buyer or seller?

Listening skills is one of the first things taught in counselling skills training. This may sound a little basic but really listening is not that easy. It takes practice to stay with what someone else is saying, to remain present and not to interrupt.
The problem is, most of the time when someone is talking we are not really listening to what they are saying, instead we are thinking about our related experiences and what we are going to say in reply. I imagine you will know what I mean and have experience of talking only to be interrupted or [Read more …]

Patrons are responsible for returning books on time (date and time).
Books must be returned to the library from which they were borrowed. After the library has closed, books can be placed in the drop box outside the library entrance. These books will be returned in the library system when the library reopens on the following day.
Students can see the return dates of library materials they have borrowed in their Reader's Card in the library web catalog.
4 days before the due date, patrons receive e-mail reminders (to the e-mail in their library records) to return the books. This is just a courtesy and does not absolve the patrons from their responsibility to check the due dates of their books.


text: Elaine, a very experienced and mature London escorts, say that she has come across some desires and needs in her personal life which have seemed a bit odd. Sometimes it has happened when she has been on a first date, and she realized that she did not want to be part of that person's fantasy world. That made me think... are our needs and desires part of a fantasy world that we sometimes need to experience. It is almost like we have a need to put our secret desires on display and to make them come true we need to share them with others. But what happens when your desires are really strange? Should you share them with someone, or should you talk to a sex therapist about them? If, your desires are very different, it is important to recognize that they are odd. If, you don't recognize that they are different, they can potentially lead to problems in your future sex life. You may find it difficult to find a sexually competitive partner, and you may even end up having a problem expressing yourself sexually. When desires clash London escorts appreciate that we are all different, and that we all have different desires and needs. But what happens when your partner's needs and desires are so different from yours that you call them freaky? I have never contemplated this issue before, so I decided to have a chat to a group of London escorts to see what they think. London escorts often come across desires that are different and some of them may even have them a little bit worried. So, how does London escorts deal with unusual desires and needs? Freaky Desires It can be difficult to define freaky desires. To some people, freaky desires may involve bondage and many think that this is a very strange desire. On the other hand, you may find that you come across somebody who has an obsession about sex with children. This is very wrong, and if you feel this way, you should seek help straight away. This kind of desire can lead to sex crimes, and you will find that all decent London escorts will tell you to find help straight way. Some people are also into fantasies and desires about animals. Quite how this desire has become part of the human psyche is not clear, and many sex therapists find this a very interesting desire. It may not be immediately harmful but it is not normal, and is another one of those desires that we should seek help with. Not all desires are freaky but if your partner has some freaky desires, you really need to assess them. Are they very strange or can you somehow make room for them within your sex life? Strange but sometimes when we start looking at someone's desires, we often learn a bit more about our own. Sexy desires, dreams and fantasies are good for us, and we all have a certain amount floating around in our own heads. It is perfectly okay to have different desires, and it is part of a sexy health life. However, we have to be careful with how we share our most freaky desires.

Building his career from the streets, one passer-by at a time, Martin Kerr has been able to make a living as an independent musician for the last 10 years. Kerr is no stranger to taking his guitar, along with his busking amp, and setting up his CD store anywhere he could gather an audience. "To connect with people who left the house that morning not expecting to hear live music in the street, for a song to stop them in their tracks on their way get groceries or run to the bank, is a really special thing." says Kerr. It has been these connections that have enabled him to build a fan base of loyal supporters who he refers to as more of a family.
With their support he has been able to achieve things usually out of reach for an independent musician - such as selling out 2 nights at the 1700-seat Winspear Centre, and landing his latest album in the Canadian top 10.
Often compared to James Taylor and more recently Ed Sheeran (although that might have more to do with his ginger hair and charming English accent) Kerr's storytelling is guaranteed to cover the whole spectrum of emotions. His powerful voice and intricate songwriting has earned him praise from the likes of Sarah McLachlan and Bruce Cockburn. "You have to make people laugh before you have a licence to make them cry. To see people experience such a range of feelings with me at my live shows is my favourite thing about being a musician. There's something beautiful about sharing both happiness and sadness and then happiness again with a stranger." Kerr explains. "I always try to send people home with a happy heart"
Kerr's lighter side is something to look forward to in the music of his forthcoming 'You're Amazing' EP. The song 'You're Amazing' has been the soundtrack to a summer packed with festivals and outdoor performances which has seen the audience enthusiastically join in chorus for the line "I'm not bad myself but you're amazing."
"I never thought I would write a song that people would sing along to the first time they heard it, although that has always been my dream," explains Kerr. "At the festivals this summer I could hear people singing that chorus to themselves and to each other as they were walking home which was such a great feeling."
'You're Amazing' was the result of a recent writing and recording session in Sydney, Australia with award winning producer Chris Vallejo. Chris is known for his work with Passenger and their hit "Let Her Go" which recently hit 2 BILLION YouTube views. Martin has also been co-writing with some of Canada's best talent including Darryl James (Strumbellas) and Ryan Stewart (Carly Rae Jepsen, Hedley) to develop material for his next release.

The social enterprise's upcoming phone features game-changing modular architecture for increased longevity and repairability.
Last week, Fairphone released the first images of its new smartphone design, officially marking the much-anticipated launch of the Fairphone 2. This is the second model developed by the company which aims to create a fairer electronics supply chain through the production of its phones.
Established in 2013, Fairphone has already produced and sold 60,000 first edition Fairphones to buyers who believe that their purchases can contribute to a fairer economy. Their commitment allowed Fairphone to start making a positive impact across the consumer electronics value chain in mining, design, manufacturing and life cycle. The company's first step was to prove that social values and profitability can be combined to change business practices for the better. Thanks to these initial sales and the ongoing support of its community, Fairphone is now poised to increase its impact and influence with the creation of its own original design.
Original design takes fairness ambitions one step further
The Fairphone 2 will incorporate and expand upon the initiatives that were started with the first Fairphone, including sourcing conflict-free tin and tantalum from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, investing in a second worker-controlled welfare fund with its new production partner in China and improving the e-waste recycling program it started in Ghana.
In 2014, Fairphone took a major step in its strategy with the decision to invest in an original design, allowing the company to expand upon its ambitions for fairness. This design approach improves Fairphone's oversight of its supply chain and ability to increase transparency and positive social impact. This includes better use, control and traceability of materials, the possibility to select and build stronger relationships with individual (second-tier) suppliers, as well as the opportunity to gain more influence over production processes.
Moreover, designing the new phone from the inside out gives Fairphone the ability to integrate its values into the phone itself, focusing on increasing the product's longevity and sense of ownership among users by employing a game-changing modular architecture.
Designed to last longer and give users more control
The Fairphone 2 features a number of innovations designed to extend the usable life of the phone. In addition to a high-quality Full HD 5-inch display, Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 801 platform and dual SIM capability, the innovative back cover protects the phone without the use of an additional case. Users can easily open the device, remove the battery and explore the different "layers" of the phone. It can also be disassembled to allow owners to repair the most commonly broken parts themselves, including the screen, camera, speaker and receiver.
By combining this unique design with tutorials and the sale of spare parts, Fairphone wants to encourage users to have a deeper relationship with their phones and take more responsibility for keeping them in working condition. In addition, Fairphone plans to collaborate with developers to offer users more choice and control over the operating system.
As part of the product launch, Fairphone has created an interactive page to introduce the first prototype and highlight the elements in the phone that link directly to the company's ambitions for fairness. The page also includes a list of high-level technical specifications, plus reveals information about the suppliers of the key components.
Pre-orders start in summer; first phones expected to ship in autumn
In the coming months, Fairphone will continue to release additional information about the new phone, including a cost breakdown and an expanded list of suppliers. The company will once again use a pre-order model for the initial months of sales, asking customers to pay for their phones in advance to help finance production and ensure Fairphone's independence.
Pre-orders start this summer, with the first phones expected to ship to owners in autumn. The retail price will be €525, including VAT. For the duration of 2015, the phones will only be available in Europe. Those wishing to receive the latest information about the phone and the pre-order process are invited to subscribe to the Fairphone 2 interest list. To date, over 50,000 community members have already signed up to show their interest in the new phone.
