Recently one of my blog friends mentioned the need for a Latex free eye patch. She has double vision from her myasthenia gravis. She has a Latex allergy. My local stores don't care any latex free eye patches. The elastic has latex, so the readily available ones won't work for her. I bought one of the eye patches (less than $2) to use as a pattern. I don't know her size, but using myself I tried it on and trimmed it until it was "comfortable". This then became my pattern.
I had some Ultrasuede scraps that I used for the patches which I stiffen with a heavy-weight iron-on backing. To protect her from the elastic, I covered the 1/8 in elastic with 1/4 in double folded bias tape.
I am going to mail her the "pattern" and some extra supplies along with the two finished eye patches. She has mentioned a friend near her that sews. So if she wants more, maybe that friend can make them for her. Especially, if these two don't fit properly.
I tried to get Rusty to model the patch, but he didn't like having it over his eye. Bless him, he did allow this photo.
If you don't want to make your own, but would like something other than the basic patch found in most stores try the links found here on the message board of the American Foundation for the Blind.

Does anyone else feel the tax "season" is longer than a traditional holiday season? The commercials for tax prep start before the New Year's Eve ball drops and continue through the Cadbury egg commercials. Then suddenly it's April 15.
Try to avoid the last minute stress of filing your taxes by being prepared. It may be helpful to review information specific to military families and your tax situation. The IRS Tax Information for Members of the U.S. Armed Forces contains online videos and short articles which highlight military specific issues such as combat pay, filing deadline extensions for deployed service members, and tax laws that provide special benefits to service members.
Free tax filing services are available through Military OneSource. The program provides free access to a customized version of the basic H&R Block at Home® online tax filing product. This customized product allows for free federal filing and up to three state returns. Military OneSource also provides tax counselors via telephone at 1.800.342.9647. The counselors cannot prepare tax forms, but can help you make an informed decision about your tax situation.
TurboTax also recently released a Military Edition that, until February 14, is free for junior enlisted military personnel (ranks E1 to E5).
Military installations offer Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) consultants to assist with free tax advice, tax preparation, return filing, and much more. Locate the closest VITA site using the Armed Forces Legal Assistance Services Locator.
We'll highlight additional tax-related resources in the upcoming weeks. What tax filing tips would you share with other military families?

You've had your turn, now it's ours. After hours of debate and dummy-spitting here at Planet Rugby HQ, we've selected our line-up of 2013.
You've had your turn, now it's ours. After hours of debate and dummy-spitting here at Planet Rugby HQ, we've selected our line-up of 2013.
Five players were brought in from the cold by our panel of journalists while the remaining ten you named receive a further pat on the back from us.
So without further ado, here comes our offering – be sure to send in your own 15-1 team line-ups.
Planet Rugby's Team of the Year
15 Leigh Halfpenny (British and Irish Lions/Wales/Cardiff Blues) – It was a two-horse race for our opening spot as Halfpenny faced off with Australia full-back Israel Folau. Folau was outstanding in his debut season in rugby union, both for the Waratahs and Wallabies, but the performances of Halfpenny for region, country and the Lions saw him edge the jersey. Man of the Series, Player of the Six Nations. Outstanding.
14 Ben Smith (New Zealand/Highlanders) – He has always been an outstanding player for Otago and the Highlanders but largely on the cusp of nailing down a place in the All Blacks side because of injuries and other players' form. This year Cory Jane's absence led to Smith finally being on the right side of some luck and boy did he take his shot. Eight tries in the Rugby Championship and excellent Super Rugby form make him an easy pick.
13 Jonathan Davies (British and Irish Lions/Wales/Scarlets) – Outside centre was by some distance the hardest selection we had to make and it was incredibly difficult to leave Conrad Smith out. We were split down the middle with neither side willing to budge but after almost a week of heated debate, we decided that even though Smith hardly put a foot wrong, Davies' contribution for Wales and the British and Irish Lions tipped the scales.
12 Jean de Villiers (South Africa/Stormers) – There is no doubt Wesley Fofana is an outstanding centre for both Clermont and France and will continue to grow as a player in the coming years. De Villiers though has got better by the match in 2013, particularly for his country, with his leadership in the Rugby Championship and November hugely impressive. De Villiers deals with the media and pressure of the Springbok captaincy superbly.
11 George North (British and Irish Lions/Wales/Scarlets/Northampton) – Not since Jonah Lomu have we seen wingers like North and his closest rival to this jersey, Julian Savea. 2013 memories include Folau being carried backwards and that try against Australia to name but two as North has shone for the Scarlets, Northampton, Wales and the Lions. Recently we saw him play at 13 for Saints which shows his versatility. A special talent.
10 Jonny Wilkinson (Toulon) – You might have thought Aaron Cruden was a shoo-in for this position, but it would be wrong to forget about last season's Heineken Cup and Wilkinson's starring role in guiding Toulon to a first ever European title. Wilkinson didn't miss a single kick at goal during the knockout stages, a run that included kicking six penalties against Leicester, seven against Saracens and then finally three against Clermont, not to mention the winning conversion after Delon Armitage's try. That's before mentioning his playmaking skills and leadership. Even at 34, Wilkinson remains an incredibly special player. As he weighs up retirement again at the end of this season, it already feels difficult to watch him go.
9 Aaron Smith (New Zealand/Highlanders) – It was a tough call on Rory Kockott to leave him out of our nine slot after starring in the Top 14 as his Castres side won the French title. He was named Player of the Year in that domestic league but just misses out to New Zealand scrum-half Smith, who has nailed down his position for the All Blacks this past year. Excellent service and solid a partnership with either Dan Carter, Aaron Cruden, Beauden Barrett or Tom Taylor in black means he sneaks in. Tawera Kerr-Barlow and TJ Perenara have a job displacing him.
8 Kieran Read (New Zealand/Crusaders) – Let's hope Kieran Read doesn't get bored of accolades, because he's more or less picked up every one under the sun in 2013. Read is simply everywhere on the field – one of the top tacklers and carriers. With a try every 0.46 games in 2013 as well, you couldn't take your eyes off him.
7 Michael Hooper (Australia/Waratahs) – It's now more or less impossible to label Hooper as David Pocock's understudy. The Waratahs openside has blossomed over the last two seasons and continues to pester top sides at the breakdown with his fine work over the ball. Hooper is also a phenomenal athlete, quick enough to play in the centre which he had to during the first Test against the British and Irish Lions. How the Wallabies use Hooper and Pocock when both are fit and healthy is a conundrum. A hat-tip to Francois Louw, who nearly made the team just on the basis of his offload against the All Blacks at Ellis Park.
6 Liam Messam (New Zealand/Chiefs) – The inspirational co-captain behind the Chiefs sealing back-to-back Super Rugby titles, Messam was the winner of our Super Rugby Player of the Year award for his phenomenal work-rate. Then, if that wasn't enough, he went on to have a brilliant season with the All Blacks – scoring two tries in that Ellis Park thriller and continued his fine form in November. Jerome Kaino might be coming back to the Blues and Steven Luatua looks a top prospect, but good luck to them both displacing Messam.
5 Sam Whitelock (New Zealand/Crusaders) – Has grown in stature and cemented his place in the All Blacks team after being dropped from the world champions' starting XV in 2012. Whitelock's prowess at the line-outs is unmatched and his general play has also been impressive for the Crusaders and New Zealand throughout 2013. The 25-year-old formed a fine partnership with Brodie Retallick and has already played more than 50 Tests for his country despite making his debut just three years ago.
4 Eben Etzebeth (South Africa/Stormers) – The 22-year-old continued where he left off – in Super Rugby and at Test level – last season and has become one of the Springboks' stalwarts in 2013. Etzebeth enjoys the physical nature of the game and has thrived as the Boks' enforcer. Does his core duties well but recently suffered an ankle injury, which will keep him out for most of Super Rugby. His stature has grown to such a level that his absence will be a major setback for Cape Town-based franchise the Stormers.
3 Juan Figallo (Argentina/Montpellier) – We are big fans of Figallo at PR. He proved with his performances for Argentina throughout the Rugby Championship what an effective scrummager he is, especially against the All Blacks, while his absence was sorely felt during the November Internationals. Still only 25, the fact that Figallo saw off Adam Jones and Dan Cole for this award

I really love these probiotics. They are potent, but still very whole food based. I feel an enormous difference in my GI tract when I take them. Also, they're in glass, rather than plastic, which is meaningful to me. Only thing is, I ordered from another company before I ordered them from iHerb, and it took two weeks for my order to get to me. I'll only order them from iHerb, unless I'm buying them right from a store's cooler, because otherwise the lengthy shipping time could affect potency. From iHerb, they arrived at my door in about 36 hours, and I'm in Canada. Amazing. They should be refrigerated, so they're definitely not appropriate for most travel.
Very good product.
Отзыв оставлен Reviewer2798976 июн 18, 2012
I have not had symptoms of yeast infection or candida despite eating more starch and treats lately.I also notice that I have been more regular with this product. I also add Now Foods Candida Clear with this product. Very good probiotic. I will purchase again.
Happy Customer

These helped me get rid of a yeast infection and ease stomach cramps from taking antibiotics. They didn't cause a lot of gas like some probiotics I've taken. Kinda pricy but worth it when you need it.
Отзыв оставлен danielledonohue июн 19, 2012
I love this stuff. I highly recommend Garden Of Life products. I only take one a day to save money, and I still feel like it is really beneficial. It is so potent that you really only need one a day if you have a healthy diet and no stomach problems.
great product but non-US customers be warry of shipping fee
Отзыв оставлен Reviewer3119083 сен 25, 2012
I love this product! It is the best probiotic I've tried. I used to get stomach aches whenever I had to take an antibiotic and this product changed things. It is true that I used it almost continuously for 4 months before I was forced to take antibiotics but I noticed a (good) difference. I intend to take 2 caps a day for 3 months after my last course of prescribed medication. Here comes the WARNING though and it is meant for NON-US CUSTOMERS: YOU ARE FORECD TO PAY SHIPPING FEES AS IF iHerb sent this product in an iced, insulated package to you which DOES NOT HAPPEN! Basically you have the same shipping conditions as for any other product (including the similar in size and weight RAW Enzymes, Women(90 caps) still from Garden of Life). Still the weight used to determine shipping costs (particularly relevant for those using DHL os UPS) is 1.52 kg versus the 0.39 kg weight of RAW Enzymes! I've contacted customer service twice about this issue and I've received a standardised answer that didn't truely address my question. Disappointing!
Отзыв оставлен Reviewer1125475 дек 12, 2011
I LOVE this probiotic, not only is it much better than any other probiotic on the market right now, but it worked for me the very first day I took it. I suffer from chronic BV infections and this has really helped stop it and has also helped me with my digestive issues too, went the bathroom only hours after taking it :) Really works and is RAW. Will be reordering this from now on....love Garden of Life products, they never disappoint me!
Makes a huge difference to my diet :)
Отзыв оставлен Reviewer2457622 май 17, 2011
This product is great. I've been toying with different probiotics but this one tops it all - high amount of cfu & strains all in one. I really felt a difference just with 3 capsules a day - felt tiny lil bubbling in my stomach when I first took it and knew that it WAS working it's magic. I think my body has enough good bacteria and so the bubbling has subsided but bowel movements are pleasing :) Very satisfied and will continue to keep using it.
wonderful probiotic supplement
Отзыв оставлен KimberlyCollins фев 14, 2012
I have tried many different brands and this one works very well for me. I have IBS and diverticulitis and since taking this I have less bloating and very regular
This eliminated my stomach aches
Отзыв оставлен Reviewer1209213 авг 02, 2011
I take one of these with each meal & they eliminate any stomach problems I used to have. I highly recommend these.
Best Quality Probiotics
Отзыв оставлен 5344187286808127036 авг 20, 2012
These are the best probiotics I have used. They are Raw and iherb ships them on ice. I order these over and over again. They really help bloating and digestion as well.

Environmental Citizenship
At Bethel College, good environmental citizenship, which involves responsible stewardship of land and resources and minimizing our harmful impact on the environment around us, grows out of the educational mission of the college and our obligation to the earth's inhabitants and to future generations of people. Read the college's complete environmental mission statement.
Current practices
Bethel's existing environmental commitments and accomplishments include these actions and policies:
- An active campus recycling program
- Student Environmental Action Club programs that have provided discounted compact fluorescent light bulbs to students, placed water and energy conservation stickers throughout the residence halls and organized informational Earth Day events
- Extensive natural areas owned and maintained by the college that include an interpretive walking path (the Sand Creek Trail system) and two native prairies (Sand Prairie Natural History Preserve and Broadie Prairie Preserve)
- Kauffman Museum tallgrass prairie exhibit and Kingsbury Prairie Restoration Studies Project, on the edges of campus
- Currently 12 of the 15 main campus buildings are on the Energy Management System, which manages energy use through time scheduling, night setbacks, modulating valves, motor speed controls, space conditioning in relation to outside air temperature, and lighting management. Efforts are continually underway to refine and expand the schedule of these systems.
- The formation of the current Environmental Citizenship Committee to develop environmental policy, monitor resource use on campus, investigate the feasibility of wind and solar power for our campus, and encourage responsible environmental practices at the college. (Check out the Environmental Stewardship poster.)
- In our groundskeeping and landscaping, we severely limit the use of synthetic chemicals; use low maintenance, highly adapted plants in all flowerbeds; and apply non-toxic calcium chloride salt to icy sidewalks.
- Water usage has been reduced, with the greatest savings in the residence halls. All residence halls have low-volume flush toilets as well as water-saving shower heads.
- All lighting fixtures are being upgraded to newer technology that can save more than 40 percent in electricity usage over older style lighting while producing more light. In some cases, the greater light output allows us to disconnect some adjacent fixtures, resulting in even greater energy savings. Significant upgrades have been made with respect to campus lighting:
- We are converting fluorescent lighting to high-efficient T8 fixtures (78 percent of campus now upgraded).
- All regular incandescent light bulbs have been replaced with compact fluorescent bulbs.
- Occupancy sensors (that turn off lights in empty rooms) are being installed throughout campus.
- Trayless dining, instituted in fall 2009, saves water and energy

- Local contractor helps cure a campus recycling headache
- Good for mind, body and spirit: Sand Creek Trail a classroom and community resource
- Behind the scenes work yields campus energy savings and stewardship

Preview: Game #18 Sabres @ Leafs - The importance of toughness
Cam Charron
February 21 2013 11:54AM
The last time the Toronto Maple Leafs faced off against a Buffalo Sabres' team that didn't employ Lindy Ruff, Toronto got goals from Wendel Clark, Kirk Muller and Larry Murphy in a 6-3 loss to the Dominik Hasek-era Buffalo team. At that point, the Maple Leafs were still in the Western Conference and only played the team twice a year.
The Sabres were a tough team back then—they had to be. Short of Hasek, they had few offensive stars and just a collection of scattered journeymen providing the offence for them. They had no 30-goal scorers, but several 20-goal scorers including international superstars Brian Holzinger, Jason Dawe and team-leading scorer Derek Plante.
They weren't a team that scored a lot of goals. They got world-class goaltending from Hasek in his prime and fought people. The Sabres were third in fighting majors in the 1996-1997 season, led by Rob Ray, Matthew Barnaby and Bob Boughner. All three players fought Leafs that night, or a couple of nights before during the first half of the home-and-home at Maple Leaf Gardens.
Here's Ray against Tie Domi, narrated by legendary Buffalo broadcast voice Rick Jeannerette:
It's interesting since I only remember the Sabres twice being good in my lifetime. The first time was during this era, when people remember the Hasek-era Sabres for Dominik Hasek and not for the fighters. The second time was coming just out of the lockout, when the Sabres had young offensive stars Thomas Vanek, Jason Pominville and Derek Roy interspersed with skilled veterans Chris Drury, Danny Briere and Maxim Afinogenov. They had Brian Campbell, Henrik Tallinder and Tony Lydman on defence and were getting good goaltending from another future all-star and Olympic star in Ryan Miller.
The Sabres have had pieces of those 2006 and 2007 teams that went to consecutive Conference Finals bumping around, most importantly Miller, Pominville and Vanek, but they've been shuffled around. They lost Briere, Drury and Dainius Zubrus in the 2007 offseason and replaced them with Nolan Pratt and Steve Bernier. Their other guys got older and they plugged in some rookies to replace them, draft picks like Drew Stafford, Andrej Sekera, Nathan Gerbe and Tyler Ennis. Good enough to compete, but not good enough to become a consistent playoff threat. Even large defenceman Tyler Myers, winner of a Calder Trophy in 2010, has become a healthy scratch this season.
After being bought two seasons ago by philanthropic billionaire Terry Pegula, the Sabres started spending money on players. They bought up Christian Ehrhoff from the Vancouver Canucks, Ville Leino from the Buffalo Sabres. That wasn't enough to turn the Sabres into a playoff team again, and after Miller was run by Boston's Milan Lucic last summer, evidently there was enough heat on general manager Darcy Regier's seat to force him to do something drastic: he traded for toughness again.
The current Sabres aren't reminiscent of the late-90s Sabres at the start of the Lindy Ruff era, and that's not because they aren't tough enough. The Sabres are plenty tough. They're fifth in fighting majors after adding John Scott and Steve Ott in the offseason. The problem is that the Sabres aren't particularly good—they're a one line team that's been cooling off after some hefty shooting percentages to start the season, and Ryan Miller isn't good enough to cover the damages.
It's a contrast to Toronto. The Maple Leafs didn't add fighters in the offseason, but they started playing the fighters the had in the system and claimed Frazer McLaren off waivers. To some, the fighting and added toughness is what has made the Leafs a winning team. Nowhere is the success of Thomas Vanek, on Thursday morning tied with Sidney Crosby for the league lead in points, attributed to the addition of a couple of fighters. Vanek's centreman Cody Hodgson had difficulty getting minutes in Vancouver, somewhat reminiscent of Nazem Kadri in Toronto, and his scoring success has been generally credited to playing with Vanek than playing with Scott and Ott on the team.
When teams win or teams lose, people look for different reasons. Buffalo just isn't good enough and have made some questionable free agency and offseason calls over the last two seasons. Toronto has gotten better, if anything, since last year, but they've been winning lately, and the credit has been going to places other than the excellent run that their goaltenders have been on. Ben Scrivens and James Reimer aren't late-1990s Dominik Hasek because they haven't proved they can play like this on a sustained run. The Leafs have jumped from 29th to 5th in the league in save percentage and from 29th to 9th in the league in goals against average.
Broadcast Info:
Puck Drop: 7 PM EST
TV: Sportsnet Ontario
Radio: Sportsnet 590
No numbers today, since the team statistics haven't been updated since Monday morning. What you need to know about Buffalo is that they've struggled in most of the defensive aspects of the game. They're 26th in goals against and 29th in shots against, according to NHL.com. At 6-10-1 they find themselves at 27th overall in the National Hockey League.
Sometimes when a team has a poor start you can blame it on unsustainably-low shooting or save percentages, but the Sabres, as of Monday, were shooting at 9.5% and stopping the puck at a .906 rate at even strength. The first figure is high, but its mitigated by how low the save rate figure is: the Sabres are a team that's performing as well as their shot and possession numbers would indicate.
Here's what they had last time around:
Thomas Vanek - Cody Hodgson - Jason Pominville
Marcus Foligno - Tyler Ennis - Drew Stafford
Nathan Gerbe - Steve Ott - Jochen Hecht
John Scott - Cody McCormick - Patrick Kaleta
Christian Ehrhoff - Alexander Sulzer
Mike Weber - TJ Brennan
Robyn Regehr - Tyler Myers
Ryan Miller
Jhonas Enroth
Cody McCormick cleared waivers and was sent down to the Rochester Americans this morning. Rather than inserting 12th overall pick Mikhail Grigorenko into the lineup, interim coach Ron Rolston will presumably play Kevin Porter in his spot, who was just called up from the Amerks.
Rolston has never coached an NHL game before, so we don't know how he'll use his players. This was the usage chart under Lindy Ruff for forwards:
It's not particularly messy, and it shows that most of Ruff's forwards didn't see too much of a disparity in either face-off zones or against competition. For the most part, they huddled up with the same player roles. Steve Ott and Thomas Vanek find themselves at same spots on the graph. In no world should your checking centreman have the same role as the team's top-scoring winger, but that is what led to the downfall in Buffalo. The only major difference in this chart between players is that Marcus Foligno starts way more shifts in the offensive than the defensive zone and Patrick Kaleta the reverse. The other players who see lots of offensive zone time: Gerbe, Grigorenko and Matt Ellis, have played fewer than 150 minutes this season.
What about on defence?
Player charts via @theninjagreg 's excellent Player Usage Chart generator . For more info on Player Usage Charts check this link .
Again, the same sort of problem. Every major defenceman is playing a similar role, but Ehrhoff and Alexander Sulzer are playing it much better than Andrej Sekera and Tyler Myers. John Scott has found himself on the defensive chart, although most sites list him as a left winger, and somehow he's ended up with a positive Relative Corsi thanks to how sparingly he was played under the Ruff Administration, probably for the better.
So there's no rhyme or reason to how Ruff matched up his lines. Rolston said he will be "more analytical" whatever that means, but hopefully that means you won't play an adequate checking forward like Ott the same way you would play a scoring forward like Vanek. That's as crazy as Randy Carlyle playing Colton Orr with Nazem Kadri.
Carlyle though, will set the match ups. Colton Orr is out with a lower-body injury, which means an increased role for Jay McClement and that presumably David Steckel comes into the lineup. Based on what Carlyle has done in the past, this is a possibility:
James van Riemsdyk - Tyler Bozak - Phil Kessel
Clarke MacArthur - Nazem Kadri - Leo Komarov
Nik Kulemin - Mikhail Grabovski - Jay McClement
Frazer McLaren - David Steckel - Mike Brown
Dion Phaneuf - Korbinian Holzer
Carl Gunnarsson - Mike Kostka
Cody Franson - Mark Fraser
Ben Scrivens
Jussi Rynnas
I've taken the liberty of moving the Kadri line up to the "second" spot and Grabovski down to "third" for cosmetic reasons, and because that line has become almost a dedicated checking line (I will discuss the merits of this in a post tomorrow). The reason I think McClement slots in with Grabovski and moves Komarov to the Kadri line is because Carlyle will want a hard match against the Vanek unit tonight: that Buffalo first line saw a tonne of ice against Grabovski in the first game at the Air Canada Centre and McClement has joined them in the past a defensive specialty unit.
So, like the first games these two teams played, it puts the onus on the first two lines to score. Carlyle went with Bozak against Ennis the first time, and Kadri against Ott. Kadri plays some tougher comp these days, with opponents keying on him, but Carlyle up against an inexperienced coach should be able to exploit the situation and get Kadri a lot of minutes against the Sabres' fourth line.
It took an injury to get Colton Orr off of Nazem Kadri's wing, but I'm quite convinced neither McClement or Steckel will be used properly, as defensive checking centremen taking face-offs and being primary penalty-killers. McClement is only used sparingly at even strength and doesn't take important draws. Those are left to Tyler Bozak, who is a good face-off man if nothing else.
Ben Scrivens will get his fourth straight start tonight. He let in a couple of McSofties against the Lightning, the only blemish on the season. His even strength save percentage is an other-worldly .938 after 8 games, identical with Anaheim's Victor Fasth who got a nice contract yesterday. Ryan Miller is at .922, 10th among goalies with 10 or more starts, but it obviously hasn't been enough to turn Buffalo into a competitive team.

By Katherine Grand
Here at Prois we have somewhat of an obsession with unicorns. I can't remember exactly when and how this happened but I can assure you we are all quite happy that unicorns usurped and largely quieted all the gnome related posts and gifts. Let's face it, gnomes are creepy as hell. I like to pretend that this unicorn obsession is largely a joke but if you interviewed a younger Katherine Grand anywhere from the age of 3 until, I don't know, 5 minutes ago, you'll find it's totally genuine. As a little girl I drew unicorns, read about unicorns, had a grey pony I pretended was a unicorn only true believers could see.
Present day I enjoy drawing unicorns, reading about unicorns, and riding unicorns.
I can neither confirm nor deny I purchased a custom made horn from ETSY for my mare and forced my husband to take pictures of me riding her around bareback singing TRALALALALA! Don't judge me. Now that I think of it, although I have added several things to my list of loves as an adult I have not stop loving anything I truly loved as a child. I still love horses, puppies, bugs, birds, ice cream, climbing trees, fishing, . . . . you get the point. Unleash your inner child! Ride a unicorn.

Sigmund Freud had it easy�he was asking an apparently simple question when he uttered, �What does a woman want?�Lenders have it a bit tougher, as their businesses� success can depend on understanding the fine points of servicing their own loans. In the preliminary stages, they may not yet know what they need, much less want.
What do lenders need to service, and why has this become a question after so many decades of routinely selling loans servicing-released and/or using subservicers? The twin factors of ultimate responsibility and profitability are the quickest answers, as the last few years have shown us that servicing-released sales do not release lenders from liability when problems come up later. As new originations ebb and flow, servicing one�s loans is a great way to stabilize and improve income streams.� But in order to make the strategy work, it�s important to be very familiar with the realities of servicing expenses and workflow.
It�s a detail business, first and foremost, with much handling of on-time payments and routine communications. When loans pay more slowly, there is far greater borrower interaction, copious recordkeeping and regulatory oversight to worry about. Old-line servicing shops were full of desks with people shuffling papers and making phone calls. The modern servicing department is a lot different, thanks to technology.
New servicers want to make the process as sure and steady as it can be, while using automation to keep costs and headcount under control. Luckily, this objective is relatively easy to achieve in 2013, as new servicing software is available to replace the old school mainframe-based �big iron� approaches of the past.
Lenders that have become accustomed to the user-friendly and customizable workflow of the best modern loan origination software systems appreciate their low per-loan costs and utility. In the last few years, great strides have been made in the loan servicing software space to mirror LOS functionality. The result is a user experience that is far more intuitive and productive, with the clunky interfaces and workarounds of big iron a thing of the past. These improvements have opened the door for lenders of all sizes to become servicers at low adoption costs not previously possible, while at the same time enjoying better utility.
Training, task automation, workflow functionality, user-oriented interfaces and easy integrations with existing systems are readily seen benefits of the newer, fully featured LSS systems. Cloud delivery, faster and better compliance reporting, single point of contact and reduced entry costs are important aspects, also. But there are a number of less obvious benefits that should be examined in the course of performing due diligence on servicing systems. For example, how well does the servicing system interface with the LOS currently in use? Some systems do a better job at reducing data re-entry steps when migrating closed loans onto servicing platforms, and the hidden costs awaiting the unwary there can sap profits.
Lenders should also consider add on services like the printing and mailing of coupons and statements. For lenders that lack the volume needed to have their own departments, or otherwise cannot take advantage of economies of scale, that aspect can be cumbersome and expensive. Some LSS providers have printing and mailing services built in as available throughputs on their technologies, and it bears investigating.
Though all systems designed for non-mega-lenders will offer reporting capabilities, these need to be explored in depth to make certain compliance needs are met. And even though bare bones compliance concerns may be satisfied, individual lenders may desire a greater reporting ability to provide a comfortable cushion. It�s never a bad thing to anticipate the worst-case scenarios when measuring preparedness.
Additionally, lenders new to servicing will want and need technical support. That support starts with a user oriented design, since intuitive software anticipates questions and provides answers before they are asked. Still, when questions arise, it is critical to have confidence in service and response levels coming from providers. Lenders becoming servicers should speak to current users for their unvarnished impressions as an integral part of the exploration process.
There is much for lenders to know about getting into servicing, but earning an additional 50 basis points or so over the life of the loan is pretty persuasive. Today it is no longer necessary to have huge masses of loans to be able to service profitably and safely�an important legacy of technology innovation.

The Rodemeyers share their tragic story on "Anderson"
Please enter your comments below.
My heart and prayers go out to the Rodemeyer family. I can't imagine what they are going through and will continue to experience because of this. As bad as this is, we need to keep the proper perspective on this. We have, somehow, expanded the meaning of bullying to include all sorts of bad behavior. When I was a kid, bullying normally meant actual physical violence or threats of violence. But even then, kids were told to figure out how to deal with it on their own, which often meant meeting the bully after school for a fight. Now, if one child says hurtful things to another child, whether in person or by way of our social media, that's considered bullying also. Ask anyone who was an overweight kid about things that were said to them during their school years. I was one of those fat kids, and it was horrible. I hated school most of the time because of it, and sometimes cried myself silly when I was alone, but I never considered taking my own life. What needs to be said to our children that I am not hearing, is that suicide, no matter what problems you experience in life, is the wrong solution. I in no way want to disrespect the memory of Jamey Rodemeyer, but the manner in which he is being held up as almost a reverential figure to be respected is wrong. What Jamey did was the ultimate self-centered and selfish act, and that act should not in any way be admired or respected as being acceptable for him because of whatever meanness he was receiving from others or because of the pain or depression he was experiencing due to that meanness. It should be condemned. Jamey, for whatever pain he was experiencing, didn't consider the horror he was leaving for his own family to find. He never bothered to think about his parents and sister who will ache everyday from now on with the pain of his senseless act. This is what we need to teach our children. And we also need to teach them that there will always be jerks in life who will say hurtful things. You just have to cherish those who do love you and the friends you do have. We must teach them that life is a gift from God and not ours to take away; that no matter how bad things might get, as the old proverb goes, "This too shall pass."

Comments: I have been running in Vomeros for the last six years or so and purchased at least 15 pairs in that time. I average 25 to 50 miles per week pushing sub 8 minute miles. I have experimented several times with other brands but have been disappointed or injured by the switch and always come back to the Vomero.
From: Edward, San Antonio, Texas
Comments: Im a neutral runner who runs 10 or more miles a day, and I hates shoes with big heels. I love the vomero 7 compared to the asics gt-2000, which caused foot pain due to stiffness. New Balance zero, although great, lacked forefoot cushioning. I decided to try Vomero 7- it has good flexibility and the cushioning is amazing; in addition it has a lower profile. I have no problems with this shoe, the only thing I would change is to have the next vomero at 4mm drop or zero; the reason is because not only will it improve a person's form, but also decrease injuries due to a low heel.
From: Michael James, Arizona
Comments: Very disappointed in this Vomero series. I loved the Vomero 4,5,6 but this shoes is causing pain in my shins and ankles. Not sure what about the design causes it. But it is what it is for me and I am looking else where for my runners.
From: James, San Antonio, Texas
Comments: Nike is doing their best to ruin a once great shoe, this thing is a monstrosity, it's a beast, it doesn't work.
From: Rick, Potomac, MD, USA
Comments: I agree with many of the other reviewers. I really don't see this shoe as having a "plush" ride as claimed in the description. There is noticeably less cushion compared to the 4, 5, and 6 which I loved. I will be looking elsewhere for a more cushioned shoe.
From: Butch, Goldsboro, NC, USA
Comments: I have owned these now for about 5 months and use them in a series of shoes with other brands mixed in. Recently, I have chosen these as a long distance trainer (10+ miles). I am a neutral runner with slight pronation and the lack of support has caused me major issues. While it's a great shoe for From: Chris, Houston, Texas
Comments: Shoe felt great, as all Vomero's generally do, but I couldn't get past the all white sole. I know it sounds petty, but the shoes really do look like your grandfather's Florida shuffleboard shoes or something. Guess I'll hold out for further color options..
From: Bharat
Comments: I am a long time Vomero runner and I am really disappointed in these. I miss the cushioning, the arch is now to far forward, I don't care for the fit and I don't like the way the look (although, this is least important). I just don't like running in them. For me the vomero dynasty is over, I have purchase several pair a year for each prior version, I returned the 7's.
From: Jeff, Long Island, NY, USA
Comments: Vomero 7 is lighter and less bulky than previous versions. The soft ride is still there although its not as cushioned as previous versions. Nike didn't stiffen the ride, its just the lowered heel toe drop(slightly) which makes it feel a touch less cushioned. I do prefer the pegasus 29 as it reminds me more of the ride of the vomero 4,5,6 than the vomero 7 does.
From: Tim, Juno Beach, FL
Comments: I would just like to add to my comment one thing that I just noticed, the durability of the upper(the mesh) is just bad: under the laces, this mesh just torned easly, it appears on the forefoot upper too, and I have to admit that it is bad for a Vomero and for a NIKE shoe that is freaking expensive! (By the way, I kept the shoe upper safe and clean all the time, just running in them on road or treadmill!)
From: Shahar, Be'er Sheva, Israel
Comments: I've bought the Vomero+ 7, I have to admit, I had high expections from them, and honestly, they are AMAZING, they feel great! I'm a neutral runner that need some support, with medium arch and have a regular width. When I first put them on, they felt great, great lacing system and amazing "Dynamic Fit" feature, the cushion was great as wel as the soft feel(which some will say stiff but I don't think so), the support and protection were there, the only thing I didn't like is the width of the forefoot that was a little wide for me, but other than that its just great. Now to the run, my first run with the shoes was a 6k run, they felt great, I'm a midfoot-heel striker and the cushioning felt great, the weight transition from heel to forefoot was great and the protection was huge. For a Vomero, these shoes are pretty light, and are pretty responsive. I enjoy running in these shoes, and happy that I bought them even though they are a little expensive for running shoes.
From: Shahar, Be'er Sheva, Israel
Comments: A more sporty ride with the lower heel and a great fit. More luxury sport and a smoother transition.
From: Ken, Kingston Upon Thames, UK
Comments: I never cared for the prior Vomero versions but love this one. It has plenty of cush, but a little less than the prior versions, and feels a little more level in the profile. Not quite as pogo-stick like as before yet still very protective. There aren't enough positive words to describe Nike's new Dynamic Fit feature. It's not just marketing hype - it really moves/adjusts to your foot so well in the arch and mid-foot! One of my feet is oddly shaped and flexibility in that area is so nice to have. Still feels supportive at the same time. As for the color, to each their own, but to me not every shoe has to be tiger-striped orange or electric pink. The color combo looks fine, imo.
From: Nate, Des Moines, IA, USA
Comments: Shoe felt great, as all Vomero's generally do, but I couldn't get past the all white sole. I know it sounds petty, but the shoes really do look like your grandfather's Florida shuffleboard shoes or something. Guess I'll hold out for further color options..

Comments: I have run on many shoes while in the Marine Corps and now out of the military, New Balance, Nike, Asics etc. I have not found a more comfortable shoe than this one. Brooks Adrenaline line proves to be the most versatile and comfortable than any other shoe out there on the open market today. Not sure what other reviewers are referring to with blisters since this 2014 version is better than past versions. I replaced a 2011 version which was still in great shape. I would highly recommend this shoe to any runner or cross trainer looking for simple comfort and a lightweight shoe that provides stability and feels good on your foot. Colors looks great too.

I like the way you placed the column of photos and the overlay on the left. Very cute. And such a brave girl!
I love all the graphic extreme teen in action feel in this - the great color gradient on your blended background shot, the super graphic frames down the left, and all the bits of black to anchor it. Teen Cool Dude!
This LO does such a great job of capturing that adolescent sense of invincibility! Lots of energy, determination, fun. I especially like the background blended with her photo.
I like how you did the background and the title. Great colors for a teen layout.
Tammy what a cool layout! I love your blended photo background, your title AND I love the way you framed Bailey's awesome photos! Woohoo GO Bailey!
This is very cool. I love the photo blended with the background and the cool sweep of colors. Neat frames on the little photos.

Recently the British Intelligence shut down an attempted dry practice run by Muslim citizens of England which was correlated with American Intelligence possibly involving Muslim Americans giving financial help to the plan. Which was a dry run using liquid chemicals converting the liquids into explosives. Had the dry run proved to be successful, the plan was to target 12 or more passenger air flights headed towards the United States exploding them all in mid air. A tragedy far more devastating than the World Trade Centers.
We are writing about Muslim citizens living in England and the United States. This was to be an Islamic terror plot which involved British citizens as well as American citizens.
It is about time our knuckle headed Washington delegation stood up to the problem and follow the words of Teddy Roosevelt and insist, no demand, his words be followed through with. President Roosevelt stated, "In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith become an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else." Roosevelt said in 1907, "For it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed or birthplace or origin.
But this is predicated upon a person's becoming in every facet an American and nothing but an American. There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, (Muslim, Islam or African American) isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag. We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language. And we have room, for but one sole loyalty and that is the loyalty to the American people and the United States of America."

So cute but not especially comfy
"I had a couple pairs of Rocket Dog flats, which are the cutest flats ever, generally speaking, but found them painful to walk in. This time, I ordered a half size up thinking they'd be comfortable if larger, but even though they're big enough, the vamps still dig into my phalanges. =(I got the gold Monicas-- very pretty. I normally wear 8.5-9; needed to get 9.5 for these. My feet are on the wide side, which is why these aren't as comfy as they could be."

Sitting Volleyball Team Prepares for World QualifierThis weekend, the Volleydome in Calgary will host the men's and women's National Sitting Volleyball teams as the men prepare for the upcoming World Championship qualifier.
The qualifier for Worlds is the Pan Am Championships, October 9 to 13 in Edmond, Oklahoma, and the next World Championships are in Elbag, Poland, in June 2014. The Canadian men must finish in the top two in Oklahoma to qualify for the Worlds.
This year, the men's team will be led by Austin Hinchey of Edmonton, Alberta, a below-the-knee amputee who plays both sitting and able-bodied volleyball. He is currently in his fifth year of CIS eligibility with the UBC Thunderbirds, but he has been released by the Thunderbirds to be able to train and compete in this event.
The men were 16th at the 2010 World Championships - the first time Canada participated in the Sitting Volleyball World Championships.
The women's program is in the middle of a rebuilding phase, and will be training with a group of new and veteran athletes.
Sitting volleyball is a discipline of disabled volleyball that is played while sitting on the floor. The sport is governed by the same set of rules as the able-bodied game, with a few minor rule modifications.
The sitting volleyball court measures 10m x 6m, divided into two sides of 5m deep by 6m wide. The net height is lower than that of able-bodied or standing volleyball, and is set at a height of 1.15m for men, and 1.05m for women.
For international competition, sitting volleyball is open to athletes with a physical disability who meet the minimum disability requirements for volleyball. An athlete's disability must be permanent (either progressive or non-progressive). Athletes with progressive physical disabilities (i.e., muscular dystrophy, multiple sclerosis, etc.) are given a temporary classification and must be classified at each competition. The sport was introduced into the Paralympic program in 1980.
While many sitting volleyball athletes at the international level are amputees, the sport can be played by athletes with other types of physical disabilities.
Anyone interested in finding out more about either playing or coaching the sport can contact High Performance Director Ian Halliday firstname.lastname@example.com
The public is welcome to view any of the court sessions listed below.

A Poem for Hard Times
In a recent post including my conversation with poet Katie Ford for our Repossessing Virtue series, Ford talked about how in these hard economic times she finds comfort in literature, and more specifically, in the poetry of James Wright. During our talk, she mentioned a poem he had written, and the title was so compelling, I just had to dig around to find it.
"In Terror of Hospital Bills"
I still have some money
To eat with, alone
And frightened, knowing how soon
I will waken a poor man.
It snows freely and freely hardens
On the lawns of my hope, my secret
Hounded and flayed. I wonder
What words to beg money with.
Pardon me, sir, could you?
Which way is St. Paul?
I thirst.
I am a full-blooded Sioux Indian.
Soon I am sure to become so hungry
I will have to leap barefoot through gas-fire veils of shame,
I will have to stalk timid strangers
On the whorsehouse corners.
Oh moon, sow leaves on my hands,
On my seared face, oh I love you.
My throat is open, insane,
Tempting pneumonia.
But my life was never so precious
To me as now.
I will have to beg coins
After dark.
I will learn to scent the police,
And sit or go blind, stay mute, be taken for dead
For your sake, oh my secret,
My life.
Copyright 1971 by James Wright. Reprinted from "Collected Poems" with permission from Wesleyan University Press.
I'm struck by the lines, "It snows freely and freely hardens / On the lawns of my hope," and how the speaker wonders "what words to beg money with" when hospital bills finally bring him to poverty. Yet later, the speaker says "But my life was never so precious / To me as now."
It's a sentiment I feel I'm hearing often in these Repossessing Virtue conversations and in listener comments — that despite the fear and anxiety of this time, this economic collapse has offered us an opportunity to reexamine and refocus our energy on what we really value.
We'd love to hear what you think of this poem, or what other poems and/or poets are you turning to lately. One listener said he's been reading a lot of Mary Oliver and John O'Donohue this past year. What other poets are offering you comfort or insight during these economic times?

It is my great privilege to serve the citizens of Emery, Sanpete and Sevier in the Utah Legislature. I bring a somewhat unique perspective to that body, having served extensively in all three branches of government. I promise continued vigilance and energy in your behalf, and make this brief report on areas of emphasis during my first term in office. I conclude with a personal note and information about my background.
Education: Stood firm in defense of public schools; worked to increase teacher salaries and expand higher education opportunities at SNOW and CEU; sponsored measure to provide minimum capital funding for less affluent and small rural districts.
Land and water: Joined in effort to maintain access to public lands, restore fire damaged areas, eradicate cheat grass and protect water rights against hoarding, speculation and the insatiable appetite of down-stream states.
Local government: Supported allowing municipalities to bank water reasonably necessary for future growth; helped secure fair share and release of mineral lease revenue for impacted counties.
Mining: Served on the Mine Safety Commission and helped steer a conservative course designed to enhance the safety of miners without creating burdensome regulations or additional red tape.
Fiscal responsibility: Supported spending and saving decisions that have resulted in Utah being recognized as the best managed state in the nation.
A personal note: The last few years have seen great advances in our state. Though the present is challenging, I remain optimistic about the future. Our strength remains rooted in the goodness and industry of our people. It is a valued privilege to represent you in the Utah Legislature. I strive to be worthy of your continued trust.
Background: Before being elected to the Utah House, Representative McIff served as a District Court Judge, County Attorney, Chair of a University Board of Trustee and as a member of the Board of Regents governing higher education in Utah. A native of Sanpete County, he now lives in Richfield, with his wife Renee, an educator by profession. The couple has five children and nine grandchildren.
