|In response to Re: Septic smell under floor/in house
: : Hi, I have that problem too. I even crawled under my house, through the mouse turds, perhaps risking hanta virus and did not notice a smell under the house. Ours seems to be strongest right where the drain pipe from our 1st floor bathroom sink goes out through the wall. Some days it is worse. It is an very unpleasant sour, somewhat sewerish smell. PS Our crawl space has excellent ventilation.
: Does anyone know what causes this smell? I've got it, too - it seems to be huddled mostly to the rear of the sink in both bathrooms, which back up onto each other. Should I be worried? How can I get rid of the smell?
This is just to correct my email address - posted incorrectly in the message above (sorry... :-< ).

Happy Friday–we hope you had a wonderful and relaxing Fourth of July! Today we have two fun and simple Learn to Sew patterns from Simplicity to give away to a lucky winner. Both patterns are ideal for beginners, and would also be just right for kids looking to take up a new hobby over the summer. Simplicity 1946 includes both a child- and adult-size robe as well as a comfy pet bed.
Simplicity 2173 includes two child-size aprons and a matching pot holder.
What fun! To enter to win the patterns, answer the following question in the comments section below: Tell us about the very first sewing pattern you ever used.
The first pattern I ever used was for a simple tunic-style top. The top turned out great, but I forgot to pre-wash the fabric so it turned out too small after one load of laundry! Share your first pattern experience in the comments section, and we'll randomly select a winner on Monday. Good luck!

For those of you who follow me on Twitter you'll know that this week I attended The East London Expo in Dagenham. It was a great event but it highlighted a few things for me which I felt were worth blogging about this week. Hopefully if you find yourself getting ready for an exhibition, you can take some of this advice and use it to your advantage.
First things, first – Expo's are not cheap. You have the price of the stand, the cost of travel, the cost of the equipment and printed material and (don't forget this one), the cost of your time. If you're going to invest in this, you need to be sure you're going to make proper use of it.
So rather than tips today I've made a list of thoughts for you
1). Prepare, prepare, prepare – Think out your stand well in advance, work out the dimensions, what you're going to have on there in the way of furniture and plan it properly (we marked ours out with tape first to see what space we had).
2). Watch out for the 'snatch and grab' brigade – Yes, those people who walk round and take every bit of literature going as if it were to be part of a collection or something – placing expensive material near the front of the stand allows this group to do this and guess what, you're not going to get any work from them – don't waste it.
3). Seminars – Many shows I've been to over the years have had seminars running at them. These are usually unpaid speaking gigs but they give you the ability to raise awareness of yourself and your company. I highly recommend putting yourself up for these talks, at which you can of course invite people back to your stand afterwards to chat further.
4). Dress Appropriately – Suit and smart clothing may be best for your business but if you have branded clothing this goes down especially well because you'll be walking about a lot. At the expo this week I even saw someone dressed as a spark plug!
5). You're there to learn, not to sell – POW – you weren't ready for that one were you? I lost count of the times that I walked around shows and people on stands practically accosted me and pulled me into their stand and waffled at me regarding their service or product. Sound familiar? What had these guys done? They'd spent their valuable time telling me about their business (which by the way I wasn't really interested in) while their perfect client walked past, saw they were busy and walked on.
6). Them not you – A quick cursory glance at your stand name and then the inevitable, 'So what do you do then?' Heard that one before? Crikey, I must have heard that 300 times this week. I almost always respond in the same way (this works at networking events aswell by the way) – 'We run a web design and online marketing agency, but hey that's not important, what do YOU do?' Turning the question around on someone allows them to talk about themselves and for you to learn…that way you're far better placed to work out which of your services might be able to help them.
7). The next step – Work out what your next step is for the show. What is the perfect outcome for you? Do you want hundreds of cold lead business cards that will probably take you ages to follow up and get back to or would you like fewer, but more serious appointments or at least phonecalls booked? I know which one we go for.
8). Follow up material – If sending out follow up material is important to your business then make sure it's prepared before the show so all you need to do when you get back is hand over the addresses and away you go.
There are probably hundreds of hints and tips for tradeshows so I could go on but I'll let you guys take the stage and add some more
Now Your Thoughts
- What howlers have you seen occur at these events?
- What's made you smile and think that's innovative?

At the end of last year a very useful discussion was opened up by a number of climate scientists in different parts of the world calling for climate change action to be put onto a war footing.
John Connor, CEO of the Climate Institute, questioned the desirability of pursuing this approach. But how valid was John's critique? And is there a better response to the call from the climate scientists to go onto a war footing?
This is what John said in the Climate Institute's 13 December 2012 newsletter (emphasis added):
If you are not scared or getting scared, you are not paying attention. Yet another rollercoaster year for climate policy and investment is ending as a remarkable chorus of conservative voices from the World Bank, the World Meteorological Organisation, the International Energy Agency and others state that climate change is happening and on track to get much worse in terms of danger and expense. These are realities, not just risks.
That the UN talks in Doha didn't reflect that urgency was frustrating.

A Lancaster mother was arrested Thursday in Rock Hill in connection with the death of her 18-month-old son last week.
Yasika Sherreeka Patterson, 25, of 1999 Pinta Drive, was arrested May 26 for murder/ homicide by child abuse, according to a Lancaster County Sheriff's Office press release.
Patterson was arrested by the Rock Hill Police Department and transported to the Lancaster County Detention Center, the release said.
Under a bright blue sky Wednesday morning, tears streamed down the faces of Cpl. D. Kevin Cusack's family as his name was added to the Lancaster County Law Enforcement Officers Memorial.
Huddled in the front row at the memorial's rededication ceremony, in the shadows of the historic and new county courthouses, Cusack's family listened as a reverberating bell chimed for each name on the monument. There were eight chimes in all.
Homeowners may soon see an increase in county taxes as Lancaster County Council considers new funding for higher education and public-safety projects.
Council voted unanimously Monday to approve second reading of its proposed 2011-12 county budget, which includes two separate millage increases.
This year's proposed budget includes an increase of 1 mill in the county's general fund, a one-tenth of a mill increase in the University of South Carolina Lancaster fund and an increase of $5 in the county road fee.
Growing up, 19-year-old Christanna "Christy" Newton always wanted to be a legend and make a difference.
That's why she wants to be a surgeon.
"They help make things better," she said. "A good doctor...your patients don't forget you."
Those who know Newton say she has already made a difference in at least one life – the life of her daughter, Cavanna.
It's going to be a long time before anyone at Buford High School forgets Newton and what she has accomplished.
As the last two days of school ebbed away Thursday and Friday, the students and staff of A.R. Rucker Middle School celebrated, a not uncommon scenario for most schools this time of year.
But their celebration was of another sort, one much closer to their hearts.
While other schools simply celebrated the end of the school year and the start of summer vacations, A.R. Rucker honored the memory of one of their own, seventh-grader Harley Manus, 13.
Though no cost-of-living or merit raises are included in the draft for next year's budget, a number of city of Lancaster employees may see an increase in their salary.
City Council voted 6-1 Tuesday night in favor of first reading of the $19.98 million budget for 2011-12. Councilwoman Linda Blackmon-Brace dissented.
Several city employees could receive a pay increase as adjustments are being made to either their job duties or title, or both.
Memorial Day program Sunday
The Lancaster veterans organizations and their ladies auxiliary members will hold their 20th annual Memorial Day program at Lancaster Memorial Park at 3 p.m. Sunday. The public is asked to help place flags on the graves in remembrance of veterans.
Lancaster County residents aren't the only ones causing a stink about landfills. Just ask their neighbors to the north.
Hundreds of Mecklenburg County residents have been out in force over the last few weeks protesting the creation of a sanitary landfill at Ballantyne's Foxhole Landfill.
Indian Land Middle School is one of 10 schools in the country honored as a 2011 U-ACT School by the Red Robin Foundation.
The acronym "U-ACT" stands for "Unbridled Acts," or random acts of kindness.
Red Robin's U-ACT program recognizes schools that demonstrate a commitment to promoting kindness and is dedicated to character-building in grades six through eight.
The honor of being designated a U-ACT Merit School entitles ILMS to a $1,200 grant and $250 for a party to reward students.
Lancaster County residents are scratching their heads about the name for a series of public meetings set for a potential countywide rezoning process.
After years of constant complaints from residents about the county's zoning classifications, including what types of buildings can be constructed where, Lancaster County Council approved a plan last fall to review and possibly revise those classifications.

Cute! Just don't let anyone step on them.
"I didn't need shoes, but found a coupon for free shipping and I won a $50 gift card (Thanks, DSW!) and decided to get these in black with them. Considering they were totally free, they're fantastic. But I digressI got a lot of compliments on these shoes. I normally wear clunky combat boots so people definitely noticed when I wore these. My main complaint is that not all of the studs/spikes are super secure. Within an hour, one of the studs fell off and I don't know how. Luckily, I found it and reattached it and I haven't faced that problem again yet and I've owned them for close to 2 weeks. Also not all of the studs are placed symmetrically (on the left shoe, there are 3 studs on the very tip of the shoe and on the right shoe, they're a bit closer to the top, but you don't really notice it unless you're staring at them for awhile). I'm also a bit paranoid when wearing them in a heavy-traffic area because if someone were to step on them or if I accidentally kicked something or tripped, it could potentially ruin them. So these are not an everyday shoe, but when you wear them, they will get noticed. If you don't sit on your heels like I do, don't wear them in a crowded area, and don't treat them horribly, if you like these shoes, definitely go for them. They're pretty sweet. :)"

"The pictures don't do this oxford justice! In person the studs are shinier and a lot more detailed. The shoes are super comfy and I got them in the tan color. They punk up any outfit! Don't wait for these to go on sale get them while you can because the stud trend is never going away and if you are punk like me you won't want it too."

What a find!
"I found these in the clearance and I love them! I bought them in the cognac color and they are adorable. I have worn them for hours and they never hurt my feet! I work in retail and they look great with many outfits. Get ready for lots of compliments in these oxfords! I can't wait for warmer weather so I can wear them with dresses and skirts. They are very true to size."

Coach Heidi Kay knew going into this year that it would be one of learning lessons. She had very few returning starters and a whole new set of teams to face. As the team is over half way through their first season as a 1A school it has been mostly a learning experience. The team lost 64-51 to Green River on Tuesday and then 52-25 to Monticello on Friday.
Against Green River, on Tuesday, PCA was trailing 54-27 as they headed into the final quarter of play. But the team found their rhythm and outscored the Pirates 24-10 to make it a much closer score then it had been most of the game. Haley Spiagrelli was top Panther with 15 points. Monique Hullings followed with 14.
On Friday the number four ranked 1A school in the state came in to Pinnacle to face the Lady Panthers. The Lady Bucks did what they needed to do to keep themselves on top of their game. But PCA played some solid defense to hold them to 52 points. The Panthers also ran some good offense, but just couldn't finish it off and get their shots to drop.
Coach Kay is still adjusting to having teams that won championships in the smaller athletic association to losing at the 1A level.
"We are trying and hopefully learning." she admitted, "But we have a long way to go."
As far as the game against Monticello she added, "We could have played better offense, we still have trouble finishing it. Tonight we just couldn't get out shots to drop I am hoping we can get a win this weekend against Navaho Mountain."
The team has a pair of home games again this week with Navaho Mountain on Friday night and then Monument Valley on Saturday. Games will start at 5:00 followed by the boys at 7:00.

Clyfford STILL
Clyfford Still was born on 30 November 1904 in Grandin, North Dakota. In 1926 he enrolled at The Art Students' League of New York, but withdrew soon afterwards. He studied instead at Spokane University, Washington, from 1926 to 1933, then took up a fellowship at the Trask Foundation, Saratoga Springs, New York. In 1935 he received his master of arts at Washington State University, Pullman, where he taught until 1941. Still's first solo exhibition was held at the San Francisco Museum of Art, California, in 1943. His second was at the Art of This Century Gallery, New York, in 1946, where he showed fully resolved, abstract works.
In New York, Still met the artists of the New York School, including Mark Rothko and Jackson Pollock. Together with Rothko, Robert Motherwell and others, Still founded a teaching group called Subjects of the Artist. In 1952 he contributed work to the exhibition 15 Americans at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, and was represented in the exhibition Modern art in the United States, which was held at the Tate Gallery, London, in 1956. Still was also represented in The new American painting which toured Europe in 1958. In 1959 a retrospective exhibition of his work was held at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, New York. Museum exhibitions of his work were held at the San Francisco Museum of Art, California, in 1976, and at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, in 1979. Still died in New Windsor, Maryland, on 23 June 1980. During the artist's lifetime, only about 150 paintings were sold. In 1961 Still severed any connections to commercial galleries and, after his death, a large number of works was reserved for a permanent art display solely dedicated to his work. After much controversy and many difficulties, the Clyfford Still Museum opened in Denver, Colorado, in 2011.

Ah, Irish soda bread! Comparable only to cornbread in its many variations and allegiances, any Irish soda bread recipe is guaranteed to stir up a little controversy. I present this one for the simple reason that it's my favorite and you can adjust it any which way to suit your needs. Want it a little sweet? Add some sugar. Think it can't be Irish soda bread without currants and caraway? Have at it!
Most people agree on three Irish soda bread ingredients: flour, baking soda, and some kind of soured milk, usually buttermilk. But from there, it can vary widely and often with much debate. Some add sugar, some not. Some keep it all white flour, some add a little whole wheat or rye, and some make it a 100% whole grain bread. Some add a fat such as butter, but some people melt it and some like to cut it in cold. Salt, too, is controversial, as well as the addition of an egg or two. And we haven't even begun to talk about caraway, raisins, or orange peel!
In choosing an Irish soda bread recipe, your first decision will be sweet or savory. The addition of sugar is technically not traditional, but American palates especially seem to like it. I do not include sugar in my main recipe, but suggest an amount in the optional ingredients as I will sometimes add sugar to my Irish soda bread if I know I will be serving it with jam or marmalade.
My recipe also doesn't contain eggs, which to me promotes a cake-like texture, especially if you're also adding sugar. I like to cut in some cold butter to help keep the texture light and flakey. And I also like to add a little whole wheat flour for taste and texture.
Many people like to add dried fruit to their soda bread such as raisins or currants, and I have no problem with that. I also don't mind dried herbs or spices such as caraway or dill. A little grated orange or lemon peel is nice, too. I've included these in the list of optional ingredients since they can swing the bread in a particular direction.
I like to bake my soda bread in a cast iron skillet as it promotes a nice crust but you can certainly use a flat baking sheet. Be sure to score an X into the dough and make it fairly deep -- about 1/2 to 3/4-inch. One of the challenges of a soda bread is being sure that the center is done and the X helps the heat to penetrate the bread. It also creates extra surface area for the crisp, crackling crust.
How To Make Irish Soda Bread
What You Need
A little oil for your skillet or baking sheet
4 tablespoon cold butter
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups buttermilk, plus about 2 tablespoons for brushing the loaf
Optional additions:
2-4 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon caraway, fennel or dill
1 tablespoon freshly grated orange or lemon rind
1/2 - 3/4 cup currants, raisins, or golden raisins, plumped in water and drained
Cast-iron skillet or baking sheet
Mixing bowl
Measuring cups and spoons

1. Prep the ingredients. Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly oil the frying pan or baking sheet (you can also use parchment paper). Cut the butter into small cubes and place on a plate in the freezer to chill. Do not freeze the butter solid or you will have a hard time working it into the flour.
2. Measure and mix the dry ingredients. Measure the flours, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into a mixing bowl. If you are adding sugar, put it in now. Stir with a whisk to combine.
3. Cut in the butter. Add the chilled butter to the bowl with the flour mixture, and using your finger tips, work the butter into the flour by quickly pinching and rubbing the butter and flour together. You can also use a pastry cutter or two knives. The butter should be fully worked in, without any large chunks left.
4. Add the buttermilk plus any extras and form into a ball. Add the buttermilk and any extras such as dried fruit or caraway seeds. Stir with a wooden spoon or spatula to combine. At a certain point, it may seem easier to use your hands to gather the dough into a rough, shaggy mass. Press it into a thick, slightly flattened ball.
5. Score and brush with buttermilk. Place the dough into the oiled skillet. Using a sharp knife, mark a large X into the center of the dough, going all the way from end to end, about 1/2-inch deep. Brush with a little buttermilk.
6. Place in oven and bake. Place in oven. After about 25 minutes, check the bread. If it is getting too brown, tent with a piece of foil. Continue baking, about another 20-30 minutes. You will be able to tell the loaf has finished cooking when the center of the X has lost the wet, shiny look of raw dough. You can also insert a cake tester — it should come out clean. A light thump on the bottom of the loaf should sound hollow.
7. Cool on a rack. Warm soda bread spread with butter is a delicious treat. But don't cut the bread right away or it might turn gummy in the center. Let it rest for about 10 minutes before cutting into slices, or tearing into chunks. Slather lavishly with salted butter - Irish, of course - and enjoy!

The Market Reaction to Corporate Governance Regulation

October 14, 2010
Journal of Financial Economics, Volume 101, Issue 2, August 2011, Pages 431–448
Rock Center for Corporate Governance at Stanford University Working Paper Series No. 82
This paper investigates the market reaction to recent legislative and regulatory actions pertaining to corporate governance. The managerial power view of governance suggests that executive pay, the existing process of proxy access, and various governance provisions (e.g., staggered boards and CEO-chairman duality) are associated with managerial rent extraction. This perspective predicts that broad government actions that reduce executive pay, increase proxy access, and ban such governance provisions are value enhancing. In contrast, another view of governance suggests that observed governance choices are the result of value-maximizing contracts between shareholders and management. This perspective predicts that broad government actions that regulate such governance choices are value destroying. Consistent with the latter view, we find that the abnormal returns to recent events relating to corporate governance regulations are, on average, decreasing in CEO pay, decreasing in the number of large blockholders, decreasing in the ease by which small institutional investors can access the proxy process, and decreasing in presence of a staggered board.

The typical American diet contains too much salt (Sodium Chloride) and too little of the essential nutrient Potassium. Americans also eat a great deal of food that is converted to acidic compounds in the body: meat, processed cereal grains, acidic beverages such as coffee, soda and fruit drinks and distilled products like alcohol. Instead of these, it is preferable to consume alkaline or base substances such as vegetables, whole fruits, legumes, green tea and pure water. Alkalizer Powder by InVite Health helps balance the acid levels in your body with the nutrients Magnesium and Potassium and the amino-acid Beta Alanine. Alkalizer Powder balances the pH in the body to protect the overall human homeostasis, supplementing key minerals required for health. Every time you sweat, urinate and experience a loose stool you deplete electrolytes. The body requires more than water for hydration. Replenish the electrolytes with this hydrating dietary supplement. Alkalizer Powder also protects the bones and teeth by encouraging an adequate level of alkalizing minerals in the blood so that calcium and magnesium are not pulled from the bones.
One daily scoop of InVite's refreshing Alkalizer Powder provides an acid-balancing combination of 200mg Magnesium and 1000mg Potassium. At this ratio, these essential electrolytes can help rebalance the acid-alkaline ratio of body fluids such as saliva and urine, thereby providing a homeostasis protection and reinstating available minerals for the muscles, cells, bones, teeth, circulatory system and kidneys. This formula also contains the amino-acid Beta Alanine (500mg), which has been shown in scientific studies to increase the concentration of Carnosine in the muscles. Alkalizer Powder can also help decrease fatigue in athletes and improve overall muscle capacity in the elderly.
For best results, add one scoop of Alkalizer Powder to water every day to supplement mineral electrolytes, as well as after exercise for hydration and energizing purposes. This product is an excellent source of Magnesium (200mg or 50% DV) and Potassium (1000mg or 29% DV) per scoop, without any food colorants, chemicals or sugar.
Suggested Usage: As a dietary supplement for adults, mix 1 scoop (6.4 grams) with 8 fl oz. of cold water and allow it to effervesce before drinking, or take as directed by a healthcare professional.

What is Alkalizer Powder?
Most Americans consume far too many foods that are later converted into acidic compounds by the body. InVite's Alkalizer Powder formula contains specialized nutrients that help to balance the acid level in your body. Ingredients in this formula include: Magnesium as magnesium carbonate and dimagnesium malate, 200mg or 50% DV; Potassium as potassium citrate, potassium bicarbonate and potassium carbonate, 1000mg or 29% DV; and Beta Alanine, 500mg (DV not established). This blend of beneficial nutrients helps to rebalance the acid-alkaline levels of body fluids such as saliva and urine, reinstating available minerals for the muscles, cells, bones, teeth, circulatory system and kidneys. Alkalizer Powder is most beneficial as a daily dietary supplement and especially after exercise for energizing and hydration purposes. Simply mix one (1) 6.4 gram scoop with 8 fl oz. of cold water and allow it to effervesce before drinking, or take as directed by a healthcare professional.
The typical American diet contains too much salt (Sodium Chloride) and too little of the essential nutrient Potassium.

8th for Dungey in PHX
Red Bull KTM Factory rider Ryan Dungey fought back to 8th position after a last place start at the second round of the Monster Energy Supercross, an FIM World Championship Series held at Chase Field. After two rounds, Dungey now sits 5th in the overall point standings.
Ryan Dungey got off to a poor start in the first 450 SX heat and came around the first corner in 8th position. Shortly into the first lap, another rider crashed and fell into Dungey pushing him off of the track right at the peak of a triple jump. After recovering from the hard crash, Dungey reentered the race in last position. He turned down fast laps but was unable to move up to qualifying position and went back to the pits to prepare for the LCQ.
Dungey found himself in a mid-pack position off the start of the LCQ. By the end of the first lap he had moved into 3rd place and was sitting in 2nd by the halfway point. He remained in 2nd through the end of the race to take the final transfer spot to the main event.
Dungey's qualifying position gave him final gate pick for the main event which put him in the farthest outside gate for the start of the race. When the gate dropped, Dungey got pushed outside and was sent off the track. He came around the first lap of the race in 18th place and quickly tried to recover from his poor start and charge through the pack.
By the halfway point, Dungey had moved into 11th position. Two laps later he had climbed into the top ten. He spent the remaining laps reeling in Kevin Windham and Andrew Short and was able to make the pass on both riders to move up to 8th place at the end of the twenty lap race. Although disappointed in his night, Dungey is more motivated to return to the third round and put his KTM 450 SX-F up front.
Red Bull KTM Factory Team Manager, Roger DeCoster, stated, "Unfortunately, Ryan didn't have great starts tonight which affected his overall results. He came from the rear of the field to finish a solid 8th place and we are grateful to salvage those points. Overall, the bike was running great tonight and once we perfect the starts we should be in the running for a win."

A Celebration of the Arts for Black History Month will remember the most famous African American performers in Wilson County on Feb. 23 in story and song at Baird Chapel at Cumberland University (CU), from blues guitarist extraordinaire Howlin' Wolf and country harmonica wizard DeFord Bailey to accomplished gospel vocalists Maggie Porter and Thomas Rutling of the original Fisk Jubilee Singers.
The Nashville Blues Society, Carlos Bailey, grandson of DeFord Bailey, Micheal Neal and the Eastern Harmonizers and the CU Chorale ensemble will offer musical tributes, which start with the old Negro spirituals from the mid-1800s before the Civil War until the 1960s peace anthems of the Civil Rights Movement.
The black arts heritage is significant in Wilson County, as Maggie Porter and Thomas Rutling were former slaves who appeared in 1873 with the Fisk Jubilee Singers before Queen Victoria in England. By 1927, DeFord Bailey was the first African American to become a radio regular on the Grand Ole Opry.
Howlin' Wolf trained with the U.S. Army on maneuvers in 1943 at what was once Castle Heights Military Academy in Lebanon. Myles Horton, a white activist who graduated in 1928 from CU, influenced folk singer Pete Seeger. The founder of the Highlander Folk School in Monteagle, Tenn., (now the Highlander Research and Education Center in New Market, Tenn.), Horton trained Rosa Parks in nonviolent resistance before the Montgomery (Ala.) Bus Boycott.
Wilson County teachers of the arts in elementary, middle, and high schools will be recognized during the benefit concert. Tickets are $10 for the evening, which begins at 7 p.m. and lasts until 9 p.m. There will also be a silent auction in the lobby, along with a bake sale by CU history students.
A Celebration of the Arts is a fundraiser for the restoration of Pickett Chapel, where masters worshipped together beginning in 1829 on the ground floor and their slaves in the balcony. Freed blacks acquired Pickett Chapel in 1866, from which two congregations, First United Methodist Church and Pickett Rucker United Methodist Church, were derived in Lebanon.
The Wilson County Black History Committee (WCBHC) is hosting the night, which is being emceed by Chief James Hambrick of the Mt. Juliet Police Department. Actors Jim Hungate, Lekisha and Aaron Pickett, and Micheal Neal are portraying the living history characters, and JoAnn Brown and Patricia Bates are serving as the co-chairs of the show this year.
Pickett Chapel will eventually become the new location of the Roy Bailey African American History Center & Museum for the WCBHC, which has already dedicated a Heritage Peace Garden on the grounds at Market Street in Lebanon. On the National Register of Historic Places, it is also a landmark on The Promised Land Trail on the Discover Tennessee Trails & Byways through Middle Tennessee.

Happy Blue Monday
Mileage: 12.6
January mileage: 521.8
Hours: 2:45
Temperature upon departure: 27
Precipitation: 0"
A couple of years ago, I learned a psychologist had proclaimed the third Monday in January to be "The Most Depressing Day of the Year." (Yes, I also know it's Martin Luther King Jr. Day. But the psychologist is British and probably didn't mean to coincide the two.) I like to acknowledge the passage of "Blue Monday," if only because the day is usually anything but. I love mid-January. It's the time of year I'm pushing toward the peak of my training and riding an endorphin high that can't be crushed by even the heaviest office workload. Days are becoming noticeably longer. Winter has settled into its maximum splendor. Spring is on the horizon.
The weather forecast today called for "mostly sunny." So I was more than a little disappointed when I woke up to a thick bank of clouds hovering above the city. I suited up for the possibility of precipitation and set out with plans for a recovery-type ride on the road. But at the last minute, without even thinking much about exactly why I had changed my mind, I grabbed my Pugsley and hit the Dan Moller Trail instead.
I complained enough the other day about all the rain we received, but it left behind the most ideal trail conditions imaginable. The Moller gains ~500 feet of elevation per mile and has always been an uphill hike-a-bike, even in the best of conditions. But today, with packed snow condensed and frozen to gravel-road consistency, the trail had set up beyond the best of conditions. I was able to ride effortlessly - well, I was able to ride huffing and sweating and wrestling off extra layers and averaging about 4.5 mph. But I rode!
I didn't have to gain much elevation before I emerged from the low-lying clouds and realized that it was, in fact, a sunny, beautiful day. The trail took a steep turn up the canyon, and I relished in listening to the rolling crackle of rubber rather than the crunch-crunch of trudging feet. Even when the trail hit a grade that would have been only marginally climbable even on dirt, I continued to spin and spin furiously until the back wheel refused to inch forward. By the time I was finally, actually pushing, I was only one mile from the top of the ski bowl.
I pushed my bike until even pushing became impossible, and the only place left to go was the near-vertical face of the ridgeline. I layed the bike down and continued to climb up the mountain, kicking steps into the snowpack and hoping my gloved fingers worked as an adequate substitute for an ice axe. I clawed over the crest of the ridge and with one final push - a powdery pull-up - I met the first direct sunlight of the day.
Suddenly I was facing the backside of Douglas Island, looking out across Stephens Passage and Admiralty Island. Elevation was about 2,500 feet.
Sea-level was still shrouded in clouds. I stood at the cusp of treeline and open slopes of untouched powder. I longed to carve some curvy lines and decided that someday I would figure out how to carry a snowboard on my bike. Winter multisport-style.
Instead, I slid on my butt back to the bike and set into the screaming descent. Two hours up and a half hour back. I bounded over an unbroken stream of snowmobile moguls with my butt hovering inches over the back rack and tears streaming down my face in the cold wind. With no powder to kick us sideways, Pugsley and I picked up the kind of raw speed that narrows focus to each single moment, locked in silence without anticipation or fear. We rode the wave of blue shadows, snaking through trees and plummeting into the clouds - where it was still Monday, but different somehow.

What I think is really "mostly sunny" is your live. It is a pleassure to travel in my imagination these landscapes.ReplyDelete
Regards from Spain
sunny days here, no rain, no snow, and 17 degrees (centigradee).
Wow....thanks for the 3 minute vacation:-)ReplyDelete
Riding with a snowboard, I did that the other day. New years day to be exact, -10 and windy. I worked my but off just getting to the hill.ReplyDelete
I had no idea you could ride a bike over a mountain... That's pretty courageous... We've had pretty good snow so far, so everybody's out snowmachining, snowshoeing, and skiing, but haven't seen anybody on two wheels yet... Sounds awfully hard... but fun!ReplyDelete
Days like that are the best. You think you're going out to one thing, but it becomes this beautiful, amazing experience. Although our scenery is not what YOU have, it happens often enough.ReplyDelete
Today was one of those sunny days. Schedule didn't permit a ride today and it was KILLING me!
Thanks for the respite,
I never heard of Blue Monday...this year it coincided with my birthday...my 30th at that! But no blues here!! Not when I am moving to Alaska during my 30th year!ReplyDelete
Had a similar experience on Mt. Hood in the snow one June. Thanks for the reminder. Great shots!ReplyDelete

Poor quality
"I'm only giving this bag 2 stars based on the fact that it's really cute and LOOKED very functional. I loved the fact that it has so many pockets! Unfortunately, it fell apart on my second use. All I did was open one of the side pocket zippers and it came off in my hand. Not just the tassel... the entire zipper. Too bad as it was/is a cute bag. Just very poorly made."

The pharmacy's corporate and retail sites were down for several hours today.
Paul Demery
The web sites of drug store chain Rite Aid Corp. went off line for at least several hours today beginning at 2 p.m. Eastern, according to AlertBot, a web site monitoring service of InfoGenius Inc.
Efforts to contact the retailer's headquarters in Camp Hill, PA, were unsuccessful, but a customer service rep said that both the retailer's corporate site at RiteAid.com and its online store at Store.RiteAid.com were temporarily down. The rep didn't provide a reason for the downtime.
Justin Noll, director of client experience at AlertBot, also did not give a specific reason for the site outage. But he says it could be attributed to one of three reasons:
● routine maintenance, which was unlikely during the middle of the day;
● a misconfigured domain name system record, which would prevent a web site's URL or web site address from loading;
● or downtime by the servers hosting the retailer's DNS records, which would also prevent the retailer's URL from loading.
Craig Oldham, vice president of digital engagement at The American Red Cross, will discuss web site performance in the session, "When consumers come, you gotta let 'em in," at the Internet Retailer Conference & Exhibition 2013 in June.

War films and war stories fascinate children, more perhaps than most adults, although adults too show great interest in war stories, some at more sophisticated levels.
This seems to be a human characteristic not traceable to genes. It seems more tribal associated and in more recent times carried on to a type of national emotionalism.
We can observe this hostile characteristic even with political party relationships within countries. Only in few cases do we see political party disagreements result in more that riot-type conditions
National security and military preparations have become one of governments' main policy concerns and even within nations that seem at peace with their neighbors. As an example, although the U.S and China do not have any serious direct hostility situations, we expect at sometime some may arise and that we'll be at war with China.
With China's growing economy we expect that at some point that we will have conflicts and we are watchful as to expansion in various elements of China's military. We suspect that they are watching us in a similar way. Some in this country act as though war with China is inevitable. It's all a matter of when.
It would seem that in today's sophisticated world that we would instead cultivate peaceful long term intensions and programs that would move us in opposite directions than toward war so that we could avoid the type of conflicts that would lead to this "inevitable" war in the future. "Oh! How naive."
We were once in a war with Japan to destroy each other and now we have more peaceful oriented programs with Japan than with some countries we consider as close friends. We could have developed close relationships with Russia and we seem now to have missed our chance.
Human beings seem to find it easier to prepare for war than for peace. We could, it seems, try to reverse that trend. Perhaps a United Nations actively oriented toward programs of peace rather than toward programs where the UN serves as war referee might be a better way to serve these long-term peaceful goals.

Skip to comments.A 2nd Roberts Rescue Needed for ObamaCare? Yes, its possible.
Posted on 11/16/2012 5:36:50 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVetEdited on 11/16/2012 5:40:29 PM PST by Admin Moderator. [history]
I have been reading this Cato Institute legal research paper by Michael Cannon and its making me realize that the GOP governors could really make Obamacare a political liablity for the Democrats by refusing to set up a state run health exchange. It is a fascinating read and I highly recommend it. In summary, it looks like the Obama Adminstration ultimately is going to have to count on a second John Roberts rescue. Heres why. First, from Philip Klein:
With the election over and Obama reelected, repealing the law is not going to happen over the next four years. So 30 Republican governors will have to make a decision about whether they want to help the federal government implement Obamacare, or keep the onus on the Obama administration.
One of the silver linings of the Supreme Court decision is that it gave states the ability to opt out of the Medicaid expansion. Medicaid is one of the programs that is crushing state budgets and if implemented as intended, Obamacare will add 18 million beneficiaries to the programs rolls. Though the federal government lures states with a honey pot in the short term covering all of the expansion through 2016, by 2020 the states will be asked to kick in 10 percent of the cost, amounting to billions of dollars of spending imposed on states nationwide each year. It would be to the long-term benefit of governors to opt (out) of the expansion...
Never surrender and never give up hope. In a few years this monstrosity will be absorbing so much of the federal budget that the only alternative for the left will be to print money and bring on massive monetary inflation. We may have to endure some real hard times to open some folks eyes but that will do the trick.
Is Cloward Piven Strategy Finally Reaching its Sorry Conclusion
The Constitution (not that Roberts reads it) states:
The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;
There are two and only two choices. Either the tax has to be apportioned or it must be uniform. Smaller states would never have allowed the larger states to tax me and not thee.
It is becoming more clear that 0bamacare taxpenalty is neither. Scalia pointed out in his opinion that this is still a pending issue because neither side was given the opportunity to address it in the original case.
But when a federal appeal court rules that banning race from consideration in admission to public universities is unconstitutional, the federal bench as become little for than a sad joke.
And if the penalty is a tax....then every person who is working will pay...including those making less than $250,000...you know....the middle class folks who will NEVER be asked to pay more....cough, cough
Who cares what the Supreme Court says? A courageous governor and his/her state is not bound by them.
The decision will be made when the state's citizens vote out the governor who turned down Federal goodies which were a condition of implementing Zerocare.
Unless Zerocare is so ruinous that they're better off on their own.
They tried to blackmail Petreas. I wonder what they had on Roberts. I also wonder why George Bush didn't know what they had on him. Was he properly vetted or did he do something AFTER he was sworn in.
So I'm directed from FR to 'Minuteman News' to Red State in order to get to a Cato study?
Roberts is the Major Frank Burns of the SCOTUS "4077th" unit.
Yeah, I make millions directing people to three or four sites at a time.
well he has had a couple of well publicized seizures....total speculation but I wonder if its health related
What the Republican governors should do is remove the negotiating rights of state workers and force them into the same type of health insurance and retirement program as private sector workers.
Right now, the SEIU members and teachers believe that their health insurance coverage is sacrosanct, that they will never be forced to into the same rationed care system that they have pushed on the rest of us. We need to make sure that they suffer the same fate as the rest of us and know that it is coming, especially the teachers. Oh, that goes double for politicians.
You do good work posting threads here. Just seemed like a circuitous route to get there.
Yeah, I don't know why they did that. The Red State headline was many miles too long for here, so I decided to post the other, otherwise I'd have gone to the original source.
Check this out.....STATES are the last bulwark against the FEDS.... http://www.wheresthelineamerica.com/SitePages/wheres-the-line-america.aspx

That is a well-written and thoughtful piece. Good score, and worth preserving for future reference.
Roberts has two adopted kids, from Latin America, if I remember correctly.
It would be a damn shame if those birth mothers appeared claiming their kids were stolen, wouldn't it?
Traitor John Roberts File.
And that's exactly what will happen, eventually a Democrat will be elected Governor and that state will take the federal goodies never to give them back.
It is becoming more clear that 0bamacare taxpenalty is neither.
Besides, a tax on inactivity does not fall within the prescribed functions for which taxes may be levied, nor the forms of taxes permitted.
AND the bill originated in the Senate. All revenue bills (i.e., tax bills) must originate in the House.
"Either the tax has to be apportioned or it must be uniform"
Not true, methinks. All indirect taxes must be uniform and almost all direct taxes must be apportioned. The income tax, which is a direct tax, does not need to be apportioned, per the 16th amendment. No doubt the Obamacare mandate taxalty/penatax will be deemed an income tax.
By the way, the correct answer for what is the taxalty is that it is a tax on insurance owning status, and therefore an illegal direct tax. SCOTUS will, if it hasn't already, declare it either an income tax or to not know what the hell it is except that it's legal.
"a tax on inactivity does not fall within the prescribed functions for which taxes may be levied"
It is not so much a tax on nonaction as on the status of not possessing insurance. Which makes it akin to all manner of direct taxes, for instance the tax on having earned so much income in the last year or a tax on ownersio of property.
"nor the forms of taxes permitted."
True. If it us a direct tax, and it is, it must be apportioned. If it is an income tax, which it isn't, it wouldn't need to. But it isn't, so it doesn't.
"All revenue bills (i.e. tax bills) must originate in the House."
All spending bills must, too. So it was illegal on those grounds whether or not it made a new tax.
I read on FR fairly recently that the blackmail on Benedict Roberts re his cute adopted kids is that they are illegal because they came from !Ireland!. ~~~~~~ Makes sense to me.
That is a problem. They have justice Roberts by the short and curlies over the unorthodox adoption of his children. He would do anything to avoid losing his children.
What was it about the adoption of his children, I forget?
Roberts in this picture is beet-red. The younger man also needs a Mediterrean-diet, Omega-3 pills, Niacin, Folic Acid and Plavix.
It's exactly a "tax" on inactivity. (Actually, it's not a tax at all — it's a penalty.)
"It's exactly a 'tax' on inactivity"
Yes and no. Yes in the sense that the income tax, for instance, is a tax is effectively a tax on the activity that earned you income. No in the sense that the income tax, for instance, is a tax on the status of having earned a certain amount of money in a certain period of time.
I see where you're coming from; it's the same place that recognizes the absurdity of regulating inactivity. You can't regulate something that doesn't exist. But taxation is different: you can tax something that doesn't exist by taxing the status resulting from its nonexistence.
"Actually it's not as tax at all — it's a penalty"
Absolutely, but as in many things SCOTUS forces us to play makebelieve.
I believe this is what will happen in 2014. It will take a while for a suit by someone with standing—in this case, a taxpayer—to wend its way upward, and possibly the Obamination will have several wise Latinas in place by then, so it will all be for schloe, but one can hope.

sadly enough, i was super stoked to hear about the Horsemen, but like all other avatars I have bought, they'll eventually become 50% off the gold price so they're not worth buying.. Ive bought all my avatars except a couple at full price and its got me nothing >_<

maybe that is war but war has rules too. don't follow rules = jail. jail is a new hero with no attack and you gotta play him until jail is over.
Soulreaper Alt Avatar = Death
:goldenshield: ?
The biggest problem i have is the name of the fifth horseman. While the original four horsemen were named after suffering of the human condition that ultimately leads to death; i dont see how conquest leads to suffering. As a matter of fact conquest could be a good thing, as it establishes trade routes, fortifies towns, and improves knowledge through trade.
I really wish that the devs put more thought into the name of the fifth horseman. Here are some other ideas for the fifth that i think are better
Faith (both heretics and fanatics)
im curious, for those that buy all 4, they get the 5th free, but since u need 4 expensive alts to do that, will the 5th alt, also have new icons like frost pr and new effects on its skills?
just curious cause that would make and amazing package
Cool idea, but you need to adjust the silver prices. Way too high.
Can we purchase the 5th one without buying the other 4?
( . .)
"While the original four horsemen were named after suffering of the human condition that ultimately leads to death"
Where did you get this idea from?
"And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. "
Anyways if your idea was to create four new and different interpretations of the four horseman sure why not, but if you say that "the original were based on human suffering" sorry that's not the case.
u all complain about how much these heros cost....is silly cause its just like any other game u have to pay for things in it....either buy it or dont...quit complaing about it.....s2 is smart to charge for it .they put the hard work into making the alts so they should reap the rewards

.................................................Thanks for your time!
i'm sure skeletal one will be forsaken archer.. and it has no alt avatar except EA
As for the pricing of avatars there have been written statements when people raised their concern about the increasing gold cost prices that "these are the new things" and "older content will fall in prices" as new things comes out to replace recent new things. However uptil now this have not happened for a single thing in the shop yet since that statement was made.
1 day 50% sale on certain avatars that goes back to their old price again is not the same as reducing costs for older avatars over time, so anyone even think about mentioning that... don't bother.

By Gene Phelps/NEMS Daily Journal
Katie Bates didn't escape Roman Doty's wrath when she played high school basketball for him at Pine Grove, but she did earn his respect with her work ethic.
"Katie was not only one of my best players, she was the hardest worker," said Doty, now a school administrator. "She led by example. She left it on the floor every day at practice and in games.
"It's great to see she's carried that work ethic and those standards over to her coaching career."
Bates, who led Ripley's Lady Tigers to a fifth consecutive 20-win season and a berth in the Class 3A state semifinals, is the 2012-13 Daily Journal Girls Coach of the Year in Northeast Mississippi.
Pontotoc's Bill Russell, New Site's Byron Sparks and North Pontotoc's Shane Montgomery were also considered for the award.
Ripley, which finished 29-5, had victories against former No. 1-ranked 6A state finalist Southaven, 6A Tupelo, 4A state semifinalist North Pontotoc and 2A state finalist New Site.
The Lady Tigers lost by two points to 4A state finalist Pontotoc and lost in their season opener to 2A state semifinalist Potts Camp.
"That (Potts Camp loss) got our attention right off the bat," Bates said. "I'm glad we stumbled at the beginning and took off from there. We played our most challenging schedule this season. It prepared us to get us to where we wanted to be again … in the state tournament."
Ripley entered the season without its inside force, Becca Ruckes, a Delta State signee. Bates also missed four games late in the season for the birth of her son, Bo, and for his illness that required a hospital stay in Memphis.
"The odds were against us," Bates said. "It was tough at times. It affected the girls, not just me. It's a credit to them and my assistant coaches, Regina Chills and Anna Hamilton. They held it together. They never lost sight of where we were going.
"I'm not going to take any credit. They kept it together, and in spite of all that, they won the division tournament."
The win against Southaven during the Hickory Flat Invitational ranks as one of Bates' top career wins in her six years in Ripley.
"That win was big for our program," she said. "Our expectations are to win no matter who we play."

Jake Gardiner, a goals against retrospective, Part I
Cam Charron
September 11 2012 02:28PM
Jake Gardiner was on the ice for 62 even strength goals against last season, and Lord help us if we don't go through each and every one to try and pin the blame on somebody else.
I've been planning this project for a while now, but now that Michal Roszival has decided to sign with the Chicago Blackhawks, it's a tinge more urgent. The Toronto Maple Leafs still have one defenceman that I consider to be good enough to be in an NHL top four, but Gardiner and Carl Gunnarsson both have potential.
Gardiner's first NHL season was a bit of a paradox. He played simultaneously the easiest minutes on the Maple Leafs defence—a 56% offensive zone start rate and a -0.328 Corsi Rel QoC—and the toughest, playing alongside Luke Schenn more than any other Toronto player did.
Now, Schenn finds himself in Philadelphia. Gardiner is back in Toronto, presumably on the second-pairing with Mike Komisarek. Coincidentally, that's who Gardiner is paired with for the first goal he was on the ice for.
Gardiner's "role" if you will, is to protect the left side of the scoring area. This is only the second game of his career, so you can forgive him for that, and also for how slow Toronto's forecheck set up on two occasions, giving Jason Spezza, the division's primary offensive talent, a boatload of time to set up.
Komisarek needs to come in and help out after Gardiner gets spun all kinds of backwards. Gardiner allows a pretty sizeable gap for Colin Greening who gains entry off a pass. Greening has lots of space to dump it back to Sergei Gonchar. Komisarek tries to cover the extra man. Not being an Xs and Os guy, I'm not sure if Gardiner here is supposed to read that and stick on Greening or if Komisarek is supposed to provide ample support. Anyway, both players go for Gonchar, leaving Greening wide open in front.
Here's Goal No. 2. Yes, we will be doing 62 of these over the next couple of weeks, so strap in. This comes right at the end of a Leafs powerplay, and Gardiner is on with Gunnarsson, another leftie:
This one isn't a scoring chance, so we can't really blame the defence for it. It took a lucky hop off of Travis Moen and in.
Also, I'm not exactly sure what my eventual goal with this project is. Whether there's some data to mine or not, it'll be interesting to see whether Gardiner is at fault for much of what happens in his own zone at even strength.
These next two are from the same game. First up is a Scott Hartnell snap shot from the slot:
That shot will beat Leafs goaltending every single time. Gardiner is sort of caught watching the play in the corner and is on his heels for an instant as Hartnell gets to his spot. Joffrey Lupul is also at fault for either not alerting Gardiner to the extra man coming in, or because he doesn't even apply the resistance of a turnstile. Hartnell goes in unchecked, and the pass from Claude Giroux is pretty solid.
This is a breakaway feed for one of the greatest goal scorers in the history of hockey. John-Michael Liles shares the ice here, and he's the guy who initially let Jaromir Jagr free:
A number of different things are going on here. Liles goes in for the most ill-advised forecheck ever, Phil Kessel and Tyler Bozak fail to provide the appropriate support, and the other guy on the ice is Lupul. Hartnell is in the corner, has Jagr wide on the opposite side, while Gardiner, who I guess didn't realize that Liles had gone for a skate, is protecting the near-side boards instead of doing what I would do, which is skating as hard as I can to the bench to avoid the "minus" rating and any record that I participated in this cluster**** of a defensive play.
For future reference, everybody on this shift, Jaromir Jagr has scored 665 career NHL goals, even though he took three years off. Maybe look for him next time?
This one is 4-on-4, and the first of many goals in this package where Luke Schenn is also on the ice:
So Marian Gaborik, one of the prime offensive players in the game, has an awful lot of space to move. Matthew Lombardi does an admirable job at keeping him to the outside as Gardiner does an acceptable job on his man Artem Anisimov in front. Schenn is a step too slow to close the gap, but no harm no foul as Jonas Gustavsson makes a good kick save, and then…
…ugh. Gardiner has a hand in giving up a scoring chance on this play, but not on the goal.
When looking up this last one, I saw "OTT #23 DAUGAVINS(1), Wrist, Off. Zone, 51 ft." on the play-by-play sheet. I think I know what happens here, because Gustavsson was in net:
I guess my question to you, if who is primarily at fault on most of these goals? Without doing the same thing for every Leafs defenceman, it looks unfair to single out Gardiner like this, but I do want a general idea of whether his transgressions are due to him or his teammates. It should become more clear the longer we go into this series and find more goals where Schenn also picks up a minus.
September 11 2012, 04:04PM
Goal 1: Gardiner stops skating and attempts a feeble poke check and gets caught standing still when it failed. Gardiner deserves some blame for this one. This one could be due to inexperience and not being used to the speed of the NHL game.
Goal 2: While Gardiner did lose a puck battle along the boards early in the clip, the goal was a somewhat lucky goal and not really him to blame.
Goal 3: The new rules make it difficult to completely eliminate Hartnell's opportunity, either Lupul or Gardiner could have made Hartnell's deflection attempt more difficult. Also, when Giroux got the puck along the boards both Kessel and Komisarek skated softly in his direction but neither challenged him and in the process neither were in position to see Hartnell coming in from the blue line. Komisarek should have remained in front of the net and Kessel should have put more pressure on Giroux. Team effort, but Gardiner clearly deserves some blame.
Goal 4: Liles left the point, Jagr saw the opening to make a break for it and received a good pass. Hard to blame Gardiner.
Goal 5: Just looking at the goal and not the scoring chance before hand, Gustavsson has to stop that. It's a shot from the boards without much traffic and he is (or at least had time to be) perfectly positioned.
Goal 6: Gustavsson again.
Goal 1 and 3 are the only ones that you could blame Gardiner to any significant extent.

Yep, 1 and 3.
