My Dad worked in the motion picture business for 45 years. Behind the scenes as a grip. Dad always said a grip was a jack of all trades, a master of none. That didn't sound quite right to me. Dad was a master at his craft. He built the scenes, he helped create the storms, he moved the boats on the water. He built scaffolding. He worked the dolliess sometimes. He did a little bit of everything. Whenever they had a problem regarding any kind of building on a set, they called on the grips to solve the problem. Anyway us kids spent some time on the sets after hours. Whenever Dad was on a picture and could get us on the set he would. He would sometimes arrange to take certain friends or family onto the lots and we always tagged along. We just took it for granted about visiting the sets. Sometimes Dad would come home and tell us what movie star he was working with or what picture he was working on. I was always interested in who he was working with. I always wanted to meet them but we knew better than to try to get our Dad to get any autographs or pictures of the stars. That was off limits to him. So we had to be content to listening to who he was working with.
Except for one exception: My sister Annette and I found out that Dad was working on a picture with Paul Newman. It was the picture Hud. We happened to be star stuck with Paul and we decided to mount a campaign to get Dad to get us on the set or get us an autographed picture of Paul. That meant he had to do double duty because there was two of us. We were absolutely relentless. We hounded him to death. We took turns thinking up ways to get to him. He got out of having to get us on the set to meet Paul by telling us the set was closed to outsiders. Only people with identification were allowed on the set. They did that some times and we didn't want our Dad to lose his job over us. We never really believed that part but we had to go along with it. So we set about getting the picture. I haven't got enough time to tell you all of the things we did but I remember one time I wrote a note and stuck it in between his lunch sandwich so that when he bit into it he got a note that said, " Dad, we want an autographed picture! If you don't get us one, prepare to pull paper out of your sandwiches forever."
Dad seemed to be a good sport about the whole thing. I suspect that he was secretly enjoying the whole episode. Well after a very lengthy, grueling, time of several weeks, hounding our father, he came through. He brought us home each an autographed picture of Paul Newman with our names on it. I framed mine and put it by my bed for years. I said good morning and good night to Paul.
I think my sister, Annette, wanted to have her's blown up and put on her closet door? I'm not sure if she actually followed through with it but I know she wanted to.
Guess what! I don't know where that picture is today. I wish I had it now. After I got married it got shuffled around and lost. Darn! I'll tell you this, after all these years, Paul Newman still makes my heart go pitter pat and he could put his shoes under my bed any time he wanted too.
Well, that's my world. Until next time, remember what famous person made your heart skip a beat or two. It will keep you feeling young.

The Humminbird 500 Series Sonar units offer outstanding performance and incredible value. These units are sensitive enough to track a lure down to 70 feet and separate fish as close as 2.5" apart, even in heavy cover. You can also choose between actual sonar returns or the Fish ID+ feature.
Single Beam Sonar: Designed to be simple and precise, Single Beam Sonar is optimized for excellent coverage of the bottom. Featuring a 20° beam for precision, the single beam sonar focusess on the bottom and fish in heavy structure on or close to the bottom, and features coverage of an area equal to one third of your depth. (Select models only, see chart below)
Dual Beam Sonar: Features precision, 20° beam that is optimized for excellent bottom detail, and reveals fish hidden in bottom clutter, along with wider, 60° beam provides greater coverage for fish and bait fish. (Select models only, see chart below)
Side Imaging Sonar: Offering amazingly clear, picture-like images of fish, the bottom and structure, it is the ultimate structure-finding tool. Its massive coverage - 480ft from side-to-side (240ft in each direction) - allows you to scan in mere minutes what used to take hours. Its high frequency sonar (not a camera) cuts through murk with crystal clarity. (Select models only - see chart below)
Down Imaging Sonar: Humminbird pointed their Side Imaging technology in a new direction - straight down. Now you can see the detail of what is happening below your boat. Timber, brush, bridge pilings, rocks and any other structure will pop with stunning detail as you patrol the water. Reaches depths of 350-ft at up to 55mph. (Select models only - see chart below)
Sonar Echo Enhancement: Shows fish, bait, and more: even watch your vertical jigging on-screen. This is possible through advanced sonar processing and provides the details you want and need. It's important to know what depth the fish are located and equally important to be able to place your lure at that precise depth.
Fish ID+: Uses advanced sonar processing to interpret sonar returns, and displays a Fish Symbol when very selective requirements are met. When a fish is detected, a fish icon and its depth are displayed above the return that has been classified as being a fish. Three different fish icons represent intensity of the sonar return, and provide an indicator of relative fish size.
The Humminbird 587ci HD Combo & 597ci HD DI Combo units also features a precision internal 50-Channel GPS with built in UniMap cartography, which includes US coasts, lakes and rivers. It is also compatible with optional LakeMaster and Navionics cartography. Providing you with the ability to mark the location of structure anywhere on the sonar graph, it also features a Selectable Trollng Grid and Waypoint Targets.

Customer Reviews
Comments: Purchased the 596c HD DI. Very pleased so far. With very little initial adjustment I am able to make out structure I never knew was there. Also can frequently locate schools of baitfish on the lakes I fish. The Color HD screen is worth the money. I can see the screen clearly even in bright sunlight. The down imaging itself works very well even if I'm running wide open on the lake, makes locating drop offs and topography changes a snap. Pair it with a RAM mount and you are good to go.
From: Casey: Greenville, SC
Comments: With my older Humminbird unit I would only see blurbs on the screen to highlight trees, branches and bottom vegetation. I purchased this unit (596c) primary for the down imaging technology (DI). It really works though not as high contrast as the demo pictures you see on the packaging (somewhat misleading advertising). Please keep in mind the Humminbird DI has higher contrast/resolution than Lowrance Elite down scan for sharper images; thus making the choice easy to go with Humminbird. If the unit is adjusted properly you only need down imaging to locate structure and fish. Once you are on top of the fish it would help to switch to Max View/Max Mode to see real-time bait/fish movement. I didn't buy the next model up since it has the GPS mapping that doesn't really work well at my Lake and requires update/upgrade to get the really cool maps. I don't plan to travel to more than a few lakes within my vicinity so the GPS mapping is overkill for me.

Embracing a ?More Beyond? Attitude
by Doug Dickerson
posted Aug 12 2013 8:48AM
Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude.
– Zig Ziglar
In Valladolid, Spain, where Christopher Columbus died in 1506, stands a monument commemorating the renowned discoverer. Perhaps the most interesting feature of the monument is a statue of a lion destroying one of the Latin words that had been part of Spain's motto for centuries.
Before Columbus made his voyages, the Spaniards thought they had reached the outer limits of earth. Thus their motto was "Ne Plus Ultra," which means "No More Beyond." The word being torn away by the lion is "Ne" or "no," making it read "Plus Ultra." Columbus had proven that there indeed was "more beyond."
Think of how different life would be had it not been for people who pushed beyond what they knew in their day to make way for the things we now enjoy. Findings in a Top 10 (http://bit.ly/15Dkscr) survey of the top inventions of the past 100 years are ranked from 1-10 as follows: the light bulb, the internet, printing press, telephone, automobiles, television, camera, toilet, airplanes, and metal gear solid. Our lives now revolve around the practicality and usefulness of each invention thanks in part to those who dared to believe that there was more beyond.
Embracing a 'more beyond' attitude is essential to your success as a leader. The challenges you face are not unique to others but your attitude is uniquely yours. To transition from "Ne Plus Ultra" to a "Plus Ultra" mindset you must engage a 'more beyond' attitude. Here are four steps to get you started.
Don't let others define you. It is important to be comfortable in your own skin. It is equally important to not be defined by what others say, think, or believe about you. You are a masterpiece and your life's blueprint is an original not a replica of someone else. As you grow in confidence you can shape your future and be the person you were created to be and the leader you can become. The 'more beyond' tip – be yourself.
What hasn't been done is possible. Thomas Edison was one of the inventors from the Top 10 list. Edison understood failure and disappointment. He once said, "I have not failed. I've found 10,000 ways that won't work." He embraced a 'more beyond' attitude and overcame his negative circumstances. Just because something hasn't been done, tried, or has been rejected in the past doesn't mean it's not possible. It simply means that destiny has been waiting on your arrival. The 'more beyond' tip – remove your limitations.
You need courage to blaze new trails. The Spaniards motto for centuries had been set in stone; "Ne Plus Ultra." Blazing new trails and overcoming traditional ways of thinking can be difficult. A 'more beyond' attitude takes the courage of a lion to break away from old views. As Columbus overcame centuries-old beliefs he opened up New Worlds and new possibilities never before known. Courageous leadership is needed today to help others discover new possibilities yet to be fulfilled. Leadership is not for the faint of heart. The 'more beyond' tip – don't be afraid.
You can begin today. Everything worthwhile has a starting point. The inventors had starting points. Great writers begin on page one. Great sculptors have a chisel and stone. Great artist have a canvas and a brush. What is in your hand? What is in your heart? Where does your journey begin that will take you to the place of your dreams? Your 'more beyond' attitude begins with the recognition that you will never achieve your dreams tomorrow unless you take action today. Your destiny awaits- what are you waiting on? The 'more beyond' tip – there is no time like the present.
What do you say?

Milton RESNICK
Rachmiel, later Milton, Resnick was born in Bratslav in what was then Russia, now Ukraine, on 8 January 1917, and migrated with his family to the United States of America in 1922. He briefly studied commercial art at the Pratt Institute, New York, after which he attended the American Artists' School in New York in the mid 1930s, during which time he established a long-lasting friendship with Willem de Kooning. After serving with the US Army during the Second World War, Resnick lived in Paris from 1946 to 1948. He returned to New York where he enrolled in, though rarely attended, the Hans Hofmann School of Fine Arts in the late 1940s, then taught at the Pratt Institute during 1954 and 1955 and at the University of California, Berkeley, from 1955 to 1956. He held a number of temporary teaching posts throughout his career. It was not until 1955, at the age of 38, that the artist held his first solo exhibition in New York, at the Poindexter Gallery, which led some critics and writers to categorise Resnick as a 'second generation' Abstract Expressionist.
Resnick exhibited with a number of galleries during the 1950s and early 1960s, and he was included in many group shows, including Artists of the New York School: Second generation paintings by twenty three artists at The Jewish Museum, New York, in 1957; Action painting 1958 at the Dallas Museum for Contemporary Arts in 1958; and American Abstract Expressionists and Imagists at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, in 1961. He exhibited regularly in the annual exhibitions at the Whitney Museum of American Art, among others. During a period when he acted as a visiting professor at the University of California, Berkeley, 1955–1956, Resnick received his first solo museum show, which was held at the M.H. de Young Memorial Museum, San Francisco, in 1955. It wasn't until 15 years later that his second major museum exhibition was staged, Milton Resnick: Selected large paintings, organised by the Fort Worth Art Center Museum in Texas in 1971. The artist exhibited with the Max Hutchinson Gallery, New York, from 1972 to 1982 and in 1979 established a long association with the Robert Miller Gallery, New York. A major retrospective exhibition Milton Resnick: Paintings 1945–1985 was held at the Contemporary Arts Museum in Houston, Texas, in 1985. Resnick, one of the last remaining members of his generation of American painters, killed himself on 12 March 2004 at his home on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. He was 87.

The Emery County Commission had a discussion on how to handle the grants coming in from NRCS for the Seeley fire clean-up.
There is extensive paperwork involved with the grants. The commission discussed turning future grants over to the Emery Water Conservancy District because they are familiar with the NRCS process. A concern with the grants is the 25 percent match required which can be a substantial amount. The first grant in the amount of $150,000 will be managed by the county's emergency management office. After this grant is administered the county would like to move any future grants to an entity involved directly with water and irrigation.
The commission denied a request from Mike and Cheryl Nelson to reclassify the county road they live on from a D to a B road. Commissioner James Nelson said farmers also use the road as well as XTO. As a class D road, it is maintained from time to time.
The commission denied a request for four ambulance write-offs because no attempt to pay has been made. The commission approved a change order for Superior Security Services for the Emery County jail control upgrades. They will be adding more cameras, seven more doors and cameras in the visiting area. The metal building security will be upgraded. The entire project will come in about $110,000.
An agreement was made with Bar Z Adventures for the creation of the San Rafael Country app for the travel bureau. This app will allow users to access information about Emery County concerning attractions and services.
Jacob Sharp, director for the Castle Valley Special Service District discussed the upcoming annexation of portions of Castle Dale, Clawson, Cleveland, Elmo, Emery, Ferron, Huntington and Orangeville into the Castle Valley Special Service District boundaries. More property has been added than originally thought, due to areas which were being considered for annexation a few years back and the process wasn't completed at that time. Those properties have been added to the new map. A public hearing concerning the annexation will be held on Jan. 22, 2013.
Commissioner Nelson reported he went to Washington DC with Ray Petersen and Randy Johnson to speak to Utah's Washington delegation about the Emery County Public Land Use Management plan. Commissioner Nelson said they were well received and able to speak to everyone. The delegation was encouraging concerning the bill. On the plane ride to Washington they found out about the citizen proposal to Pres. Barak Obama concerning the expansion of the Canyonlands National Monument. This expansion could include 196,000 acres in Emery County. UAC sent a letter opposing such an expansion to the president. Commissioner Nelson wants the county to write their own letter to Pres. Obama opposing such a monument.
The letter will state that Emery County supports a grass roots process and opposes people going to the President and asking for monuments.
Commissioner Laurie Pitchforth suggested the Emery County Public Lands Council also send their own letter opposing the expansion of the Canyonlands monument.
Commissioner Pitchforth encouraged everyone to shop local for the holidays whenever possible. "We have some cute shops here in the county. There is Debbie's gifts, Moments 2 Cherish in Huntington and Patrick Braun just opened a rock shop with some interesting gifts. Look within the county for your purchases."
Commissioner Jeff Horrocks said he along with Commissioner Pitchforth attended UAC for training. There were many different breakout sessions including one on jails, public lands, recreation districts, travel bureau and other topics. The commissioner elect Ethan Migliori was shown around and introduced to other commissioners in the state.
"I am thankful for those who went to Washington to fight for our lands bill. I am thankful for the dedicated employees we have in our county," said Commissioner Horrocks.
Sheriff Greg Funk encouraged everyone to buckle-up and drive safe and sober throughout the holiday season.
The next commission meeting will be on Dec. 18 at 5 p.m. and will include a public hearing and final approval of the 2013 budget.
In the local building authority meeting Commissioner Pitchforth gave an update on the weed and mosquito building. The contracts have been received from the CIB and signed and sent back. Johansen and Tuttle will prepare the bid and the project will be advertised. Work is being completed now at the site in preparation for the new building. The new building will be located on the DesBeeDove Road behind the state buildings. The project will be just under $1 million.

ATLANTA -- There could be crises from here to the Super Bowl, starting with the revelation that Michael Crabtree is being investigated by San Francisco police in connection with an alleged sexual assault.
Crabtree hasn't been charged with anything. He traveled with the team to Atlanta and is expected to play Sunday.
But, without knowing any of the details of this alleged incident, the timing of it had Super Bowl echoes.
Remember Barrett Robbins going AWOL on the Raiders for Super Bowl XXXVII, or Atlanta safety Eugene Robinson's arrest on the eve of Super Bowl XXXIII? Both affected teams lost the game, by the way.
The biggest events sometimes draw the biggest storms, and it's up to the 49ers now to navigate this one.
I think they will -- because I think the 49ers' offensive and defensive lines are built to win big games, because I don't think Atlanta has a complete answer for Kaepernick, and because the 49ers defense should slow down, and eventually shut down, the Falcons.
This is a monumental game with monumental stakes, double-layered with the feel of a mini-Super Bowl and the sense that the 49ers are a potential epic team, just two wins away from fulfilling their destiny.
But if the 49ers lose, it'll be their second consecutive defeat in this round -- just one game away from the Super Bowl.
So it's fair to view this through a 49ers prism: It's their moment, but if they miss their turn, who knows if they'll keep getting shots at this.
Jim Harbaugh's 49ers are a goliath -- installed as comfortable Las Vegas favorites, even on the road, even with Colin Kaepernick, a QB legend-in-the-making who ismaking only his ninth NFL start.
And the Falcons are the plucky home team -- outmanned, almost eliminated last week and led by QB Matt Ryan, who probably won't shed his reputation as a playoff underachiever unless, Atlanta wins Sunday and then again in the Super Bowl.
"He needs these two games to really prove it," 49ers safety Donte Whitner said of Ryan, "and we need these two games to prove that we are who we say we are."
Really, that's the essence of this game: Are the 49ers who they think they are?
Even if Crabtree is a distracted or distressed nonfactor on Sunday and the Falcons devote themselves to hemming in Kaepernick, the 49ers can still spotlight Randy Moss, Vernon Davis, Frank Gore or several other playmakers.
More importantly, the 49ers are built to beat finesse teams like Atlanta -- if the Falcons can't run the ball on the 49ers, I can't see a way Atlanta wins this game.
And I don't think Atlanta will run on the 49ers.
One quick stat: Atlanta has been outgained in its last three games (including last week's playoff victory over Seattle); the 49ers were outgained only three times all season.
So, yes, it's possible that the noise in the Georgia Dome crushes Kaepernick's equilibrium and sends waves of energy radiating through the entirety of the Falcons roster.
But Kaepernick led the 49ers to a victory in New Orleans in his second pro start, a game his teammates point to as the moment they knew he was the real thing.
And maybe star Atlanta defensive end John Abraham has zero limitations on his sore ankle, and maybe Falcons defensive coordinator Mike Nolan -- the former 49ers coach -- puts his players in the right spots to make sure Kaepernick can't turn the corner.
But Abraham, who couldn't finish last week's game, almost certainly will be less than 100 percent on Sunday, and there's no other Falcon defender who can come close to duplicating what he does.
And maybe Ryan will hit a few deep passes to his talented corps of big receivers and put the 49ers defense off-balance for a series or two.
But with Justin Smith back healthy, the 49ers defense is built to play teams straight up; they can put pressure on QBs without blitzing much, they shut down the run and they eat up one-dimensional pass offenses.
So it's possible for several of these things to break against the 49ers, and they will have to account for all of them and more.
There will be little emergencies, there will probably be moments when it looks like the 49ers might lose this game. There will be drama.
You could feel the excitement, the buoyant anticipation Saturday as a multitude of eager folks streamed through the streets around the Georgia Dome. Real, live-wire energy. Big-event fervor.
Except it was for an open audition of "The Voice."
Sunday it will be different. Sunday it will be all about the game. And the 49ers will control the line of scrimmage, control the pace, quiet the crowd, and take one more giant step toward history -- and New Orleans, for Super Bowl XLVII.
Prediction: 49ers 28, Falcons 20.

Skip to comments.[homosexual] University doctor who sexually molested patients sued for wrongful death
Posted on 07/07/2012 3:20:56 PM PDT by kevcol
A former UC Berkeley doctor accused of sexually molesting six male patients is being sued for wrongful death after one of his alleged victims committed suicide.
The body of Elgin Stafford was found floating in a Carson, California, river channel on March 29, nine days after the 23-year-old was reported missing.
The parents of the UC Berkeley and University of Southern California student claim he killed himself after he was 'repeatedly sexually violated and abused' by Dr. Robert Kevess, according to the San Francisco Chronicle.
'He was ashamed, and this thing ate him up,' she told the newspaper. '[Kevess] took advantage of my son. He needs to be brought to justice.'
But Kevess' attorney, Robert Beles, denied the allegations. 'Any of the alleged conduct against Dr. Kevess in relation to this young man in no way proximately caused any of his psychological problems or in any way caused his death,' he told the newspaper.
'We have great sympathy for the Stafford family,' he added.
During a court appearance in April last year, 52-year-old Kevess, of Oakland, pleaded not guilty to 19 felony charges relating to the sexual exploitation of patients since 2006.

Dead people are more likely to win when they sue for wrongful death...
The article does not exlicitly declare that this white doctor accused of sexually molesting a black man (boy?) is a homosexual.
Stafford was 23, not 13. Old enough to know better.
Stafford was 23, not 13. Old enough to know better.
Because it goes without saying? If I correctly understood the article before my security monitor shut it down, the student was 21 when he sought treatment from the doctor for an STD.
At what point could we say a 21-year-old man who's obviously sexually active ought to be able to tell a 50-year-old queen to buzz off? We either need to say all homosexual activity is intolerable, period, or allow that a consensual relationship is the responsibility of the parties involved.
The charges and this attorney's denial make me think there could be a lot of unintended consequences from the Ravi/Clementi case at Rutgers. If Ravi can be held criminally liable for his actions that led to the suicide death of a homosexual, I suspect the reverse case can be made just as easily...that unwanted homo advances that drive somebody to suicide can be criminally prosecuted.
Naahhh! Couldn't be. Registered Democrats never do anything wrong.
This is sad, but, dude was 23 years old. Why didn't he get up off the table and knock the crap out of the pervert doctor? Something is fishy here. It's not like it was an innocent 9 year old child.
Unlike most doctors, this one tried spread his disease rather than try to cure himself.
That poor kid. Imagine his horror. That so-called doctor should get the death penalty if found guilty. How many other lives has he destroyed with his filth?
Our founding fathers gave people like this the death penalty for good reason. They knew what they were. Letting them out of the insane asylums was one of the worst mistakes this country has ever made. These people are not "normal."
At the least, the Doc should lose his license for gross abuse of the Dr. - patient relationship. The article says the homo Doc subjected the patient to BS procedures. A SWAG would be that it brought forth latent or suppressed homosexual tendencies for which the kid felt guilty.
Note to self: no prostate exams from Robert Kevess
This wouldn't be that hard if he got them hooked on some kind of prescription drug. They'd have to come back again and again - against their will - sort of.
Six guys are a lot of victims.
San Fransicko area is indeed sick.. in so many ways..
Who can count them all.. the only crime here is the cowardice of the 23 year old..
What about his other 5 victims?
I think forcible rape should be a death penalty offense, but I am no fan of sticking people with murder charges when somebody commits suicide.
Totally unproveable and subject to abuse. Even if the dead person blames them in a suicide note before they do it, the fact is the dead person could have chosen not to do it.
I'd never vote for a conviction on this.
The victimization wars are being waged here: gays v. blacks. In the media, the gays win, no questions asked.
Currently young men are being unnaturally intimidated to be submissive sexually to homos. Telling them to shut up about their sex is a moral sin of political correctness. Beating them up means you are a homo for rejecting them violently if they touch you while flirting with you. This sexual dominance is enforced in public schools. Even Christian boys who object to being groomed by homos are shouted down as haters and punished.
Liberals are commiting psychological warfare against males and it does not help to condemn the young men for not reacting in a normal way since normality is condemned and punished as hate and criminal. Violence against homos is a hate crime.
What would help is if older men began speaking up and getting some laws in place to protect men from homo verbal sexual harassment and to protect their right to stop and deter homo agression with violence. Since men won't do anything about homos taking over the schools and sexually manipulating boys, they could at least insist that their point of view about the way normal men deal with aggressive homos be taught to young males.
You have no idea how aggressive the anti-heterosexual male environment is today in public schools. Homo activists make feminazis look like pussy cats.
Finally, old queers are aggressively lustful for young pretty homos. This queen used is position as a doctor to manipulate and rape other men who were probably homos. Young homos should know how to deal with these old predators, too. Being introduced to homosexuality as a young man, comes with a boatload of unpleasant surprises in the form of aggressive manipuation, abuse and disease. They don't warn them about all the pain of the homo lifestyle at and they should. The usual mantra 'put a condom on it' is like BJ Clinton telling women to 'put some ice on it.' Young people should not be lied to and misled. They should not be sexually dominated by pervert activists.
we have to stop this cycle....
Keeves molested many young boys then sent a thank you note to Obama.

Skip to comments.Monster.com Few jobs show up in search (Vanity)
Posted on 01/30/2012 9:58:56 AM PST by Politics4US
Is anyone not getting a lot of jobs show up in their search? The past few days this has happened for me on Monster.com.
I had better luck, when I was looking, using indeed.com.
I have found Monter to be useless in an actual job search.
Ditto that.
Indeed.com can have a job show up today, when it was posted a month ago on some other site. A lot of those jobs are old that show up.
monster.com is not what it used to be.
Just do a general search, and look for a different site.
All I ever got from Monster was Spam.
They suck.
Same with several others.
indeed.com and simplyhired.com gave me better results. Actually talked to a few people.
Still not working for a company. In the process of doing something on my own. At least I don't spend as much time on nonsense.
Careerbuilder.com (he said, posting from work)
Bump for good ideas.....
What state are you in? Every state has an online job portal. Ie- employflorida.com in Fl.
Complaint Review: Elance Www.elance.com
New Jersey
I have found that the daily search they email just sends me 6=10 jobs that I have no qualifications for.
Google New Jersey one stop and go to the DOL website.
For what it's worth to you, I get calls and emails every day when I post a resume. But, they stop about 2 weeks afterwards. Then I make an update, and I start getting calls again.
Keywords make a difference. Putting your actual phone number in makes a difference.
You must have more experience than me, because I don't get a lot of phone calls.
The 2 major local newspapers in the area seem to have their job search engines connected to Monster. I usually look on Indeed.com or Craigslist. Craigslist seems to have the most ads for my field, but you rarely get a response when applying to ads there. Some of the ads seem to go to nonexistent jobs.
Use Indeed.com and buy this awesome book called Guerilla Marketing for Job Hunters 3.0, awesome, awesome resource. I have been out of work for three weeks but thanks to the techniques found in this book I have gotten an interview today and have gotten some calls back
also use Indeeds job alert function it delivers daily results to me so I don't have to scour the job boards daily saves me a lot of time and stress.

One of the delights of living in or visiting Hot Springs in October is the annual Hot Springs Documentary Film Festival.
This year the Festival had some challenges from a spring storm that damaged the historic Malco Theatre, where the festival takes place. But the Festival lives on and will be a fun and exciting part of fall in Hot Springs October 12-21.
We are proud to be a sponsor of the festival and would love to have you stay at Lookout Point for the multicultural and intergenerational festival.

The list of films and the full Festival schedule will be posted soon.

Construction work currently underway on State Route 10 between Price and Huntington will result in a road designed to accommodate current and future traffic needs for both north and southbound travelers.
Nielson Construction, the general contractor for the Utah Department of Transportation project, has been at work on the project since late May. The project calls for an additional north and southbound lane along much of the approximately seven-mile project. The project's length goes from Huntington to Poison Springs Bench and will culminate in a four lane road for approximately four miles and the lengthening of the passing lane in the southbound traffic in the area of Poison Springs Bench.
Nielson Construction crews and equipment are currently involved in excavation work that when complete will help alleviate some of the traffic concerns resulting from the increased flow of coal trucks using the road between Huntington and Price. Much of SR-10 from Huntington north to Poison Springs Bench is uphill and the additional passing lanes will allow motorists a safer method of passing coal trucks, according to Jim Chandler, UDOT field engineer for the Price construction crew, who is overseeing the project.
Approximately 30 to 50 heavy equipment operators, truck drivers and laborers from Nielson Construction are currently working on the SR-10 project, which is scheduled to be complete by early summer of 2004. "The project is going really well. Construction crews are moving right along and doing a good job," Chandler said.
The road project will not only benefit the Emery and Carbon county areas with a road designed to meet future traffic demands, but with the majority of the work being accomplished by a local business, it will also help the economies of both counties.
Last year Nielson Construction was selected for a road project on SR-10 between Price and the Hiawatha Junction and on SR-6 between Wellington and the Sunnyside Junction, which allowed the Huntington and Price-based construction company to keep local people working, according to Wayne Nielson, company president.
Nielson Construction crews are also working on a rotomill and asphalt overlay project on State Route 31 in Huntington Canyon. Local crews from the construction company have completed the rotomill portion of the project and are currently involved in asphalt overlay of approximately 14 miles of SR-31 in Huntington Canyon. That project will result with marked improvements on SR-31 and should be complete in the next two weeks.

Game #46 preview: Hawks @ Canucks
Patrick Johnston
April 22 2013 03:20PM
It's amazing how a narrative can be lost in a short season, but perhaps you've forgotten about just where things are betweenthe Chicagos and the Vancouvers...
These teams hate each other. The last time out, Jannik Hansen bashed Marian Hossa in the head. He was jumping to grab the puck but got all noggin instead. Intentional or not, it was reckless. (It also turned the game - Chicago was leading 3-1, Hossa had two goals and five shots.)
Chicago went on to win that game in a shootout, preserving their consecutive-points streak and tying the previous NHL standard of 16 games. They are roaring along again, having won 9 of 11 games.
Hossa and Hansen's encounter was the second meeting. The first game was two weeks before, at the beginning of February, in Vancouver. The Canucks took that tilt 2-1 in a shootout, despite being woefully outclassed in that game too.
Round three goes tonight; the playoffs are just around the corner, will either team go at the other as hard as they did in the previous two encounters?
Puck drop: 7pm PST

The narrative we know; endless efforts to wound each other, two coaches that have known each other for a long time, concussions galore, goals galore, taunting galore.
Somewhere in there, there's a pile of fun.
There are also a pile of other stories...
The Canucks clinched their playoff spot on Saturday night in their defeat of Detroit and with just one point tonight can clinch the division title.
The Blackhawks will wrest the President's Trophy away from the Blue and Green if they defeat the Canucks.
Frank Corrado is making his NHL debut. (And is likely to be asked to play crazy minutes.)
Chris Higgins is back in tonight, skating with Derek Roy and Ryan Kesler. It's a line that will be vital in the possession game; Roy has been a fine addition up the middle and Kesler's return from his fractured foot has been stellar.
Max Lapierre will centre Raymond and Hansen; Andrew Ebbett is bewteen monster wingers Sestito and Kassian.
The Canucks' powerplay seems to be rumbling to life, their penalty kill has been decent but their 5-on-5 play has been poor of late.
This last point is probably most important. Until recently, the Canucks Corsi and Fenwick Close numbers had ranked them in the top 5 of the league, but their recent run of middling form - driven by the absence of Chris Tanev and Kevin Bieksa more than anything - is seeing those crucial numbers slide into the middle of the pack. Alain Vigneault keeps shaking up his line combinations in an effort to find the right mix, but the truth remains, as long as Cam Barker and Andrew Alberts are getting regular minutes, this team is in trouble.
Looking back at the first Hawks/Canucks game on the year, we note how much trouble the Canucks had at 5-on-5. The Canucks were so shoddy in that game, they managed just 3 chances at even strength. And they were all in the first period.
The more recent game, in Chicago on February 19th, was possibly worse. The Canucks were out-chanced 30-10 (!!); Cory Schneider was the total story as he stood on his head, making 40 saves in the game. It was a pasting, featuring a team that was at the very height of its game (Chicago) versus another that was mostly playing (they'd just downed the Blues in a shootout, for instance).
The Canucks have been mostly good of late - they have dropped stinkers to Dallas and Colorado - and their power play has truly found its groove. Seven goals in nine games has calmed things, but they are still leaning heavily on their goaltenders.
Chicago, meanwhile, continues to roar along. They've not lost a game in regulation time since the end of March. They are getting outstanding goaltending from both Corey Crawford and Ray Emery. Patrick Kane comes into the game tonight fifth in the league in both goals (21) and points (51).
Oh and apparently Sophie Tweed-Simmons is singing the anthem tonight.

April 22 2013, 03:56PM
They are 3 scoring lines deep, we just 2. They are playing great, we're struggling. They have a game plan, we don't. If the Canucks cannot raise their game tonight and get a solid performance from their D it will all come down to Schneider. Phenomenal as he has been of late, Chicago deploys some quality shooters so this could get ugly really fast. (And if and when that happens, I'm hoping that it is only limited to the scoreboard and non of that extra-curricular nastiness.)
It's a huge relief to see Lapierre centering a line between Raymond and Hansen, rather than Ebbett at centre. That's a line that might not *completely* get their teeth kicked in against Chicago's second or third line (assuming Roy & Kesler go up against Chicago's first). Lapierre was one of the few Canucks who looked really good in their last game, so here's hoping he can continue his strong play.

Best Uses
It simply comes loose too often. It pushes to the side and I'll find myself reaching back every so often to smack it back in place. Install is easy, but unfortunately, the idea just doesn't work properly because it doesn't do what it's supposed to do.
Best Uses
The added hinges makes the M2 less sturdy than the M1 because the bolts just don't simply have the strength to hold tight on rough ground. This M2 is thinner than the M1 which means you'll still get a soaked butt and legs in wet conditions. The quick release is a novel idea that simply is a bad idea for fenders on bikes. Who in their right mind has the desire to park their bike on the sidewalk, remove their dirty, muddy, and soaked fender, then carry inside with them? I don't know about some folks, but I can say for most people that we do not want our fenders coming off our bikes once they're on. Also,if you bike in the city constantly you may find your fender stolen within the first week of riding. This can be prevented by taping the heck outta the thing, but the cheap plastic parts that hold the fender to the post come loose pretty quickly, and you'll be constantly tinkering with it. Do yourself a favor and buy the cheaper and better Defender M1.

By PHIL FAUVERguest writer
Windy Larsen of Orangeville hosted Sandra Huntington's Pre-School classes recently at her petting zoo. The children were on a pre-school field trip and the students reside in Orangeville, Castle Dale and one child from Huntington. The children are enrolled in Miss Sandra's Pre-School classes at Orangeville. The three different classes arrived at 9 a.m., 9:30 a.m. and 10 a.m. to visit the zoo. Last year Sandra's classes visited three or four places around the area to see and pet animals. This year Windy's petting zoo was one place where they could see all the animals they wanted all at one location.
The children were able to milk a goat, pet the mother goat named Petricia and her baby goat.
Sandra with several mothers and an assistant kept close track of the children as they visited the grooming shop where Windy had baby puppies, baby kittens, a mother sheep named Shadow and a baby lamb in a pen with a small Shetland pony named Starla.
When Windy brought out the Columbia red tailed boa snakes, at first the children were afraid to touch them but soon overcame the fear of handling the snakes. Some children enjoyed carrying the snakes around. She also taught them about snakes shedding their skin, by showing them samples of snake skin. The children were able to carry around baby puppies and kittens. The children's voices were raised in excitement as they handled or petted the animals. Some mothers had to decline the request by their children, who said, "Please mom, let's take home a puppy or kitten".
Windy carried out two, 3 month old baby Nigerian dwarf goats for display. The children were not allowed to hold them. There was a one day old baby goat that they could pet.

sig made by me
Hayato? Ah you mean Kensei? His real name is Isshinsai Ogata. And it seems like he has quite a few disciples on his hands.
sig made by me
I know who's Hayato FM. I thought you were pertaining to Rimi as Hayato's disciple instead of Kensei. And yes that was Kensei, Hayato's former disciple. The one who was on the wheelchair was his other disciple which Kenichi already defeated. He was the first Yomi opponent Kenichi fought. Do you remember that one?
sig made by me
Agreed. Kinda scary that both times they noticed after she finished what she was doing and had left already. Really think Kenichi's old friend will get back in the game within the next 100 chapters with some new surprising abilities. Find it hard to believe that the mangaka would keep reminding us about him but not really use him.

Greater Boston
If you've ever lived in Boston, it's probably one of your favorite places in the world. It's certainly one of the most unique. Ask ten people what they love about Boston and you'll get ten different answers. Boston's quirky; it's the One Man Band guy playing oldies but goodies on Newbury Street and grown men quacking on duck boats. Boston's historic: The Kennedy's! The infamous Boston Tea Party! The Freedom Trail! Boston is sports paradise: if you want to eat, sleep, and breathe sports (warning: it smells like Fenway Franks), this is the place to do it. And of course, Boston's wicked smart; there are over 50 colleges & universities in the Greater Boston area, including Harvard and MIT. It has the art, food, and nightlife of a big city, with the friendliness and heart of a small town. Boston is one of a kind – just ask that One Man Band guy.
