Airlines Report Two Tarmac Delays Over Three Hours on Domestic Flights, None Longer Than Four Hours on International Flights in October
Airlines reported two tarmac delays of more than three hours on domestic flights but no tarmac delays of more than four hours on international flights in October, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation's Air Travel Consumer Report released today.
The long domestic tarmac delays took place on October 24 and involved flights departing from Denver, where a snowstorm affected the area that day. Both of the reported tarmac delays are under investigation by the Department.
The larger U.S. airlines have been required to file complete reports on their long tarmac delays for domestic flights since October 2008. Under a rule that took effect Aug. 23, 2011, all U.S. and foreign airlines operating at least one aircraft with 30 or more passenger seats must report lengthy tarmac delays at U.S. airports.
Also beginning Aug. 23, 2011, carriers operating international flights may not allow tarmac delays at U.S. airports to last longer than four hours without giving passengers an opportunity to deplane. There is a separate three-hour limit on tarmac delays involving domestic flights, which went into effect in April 2010. Exceptions to the time limits for both domestic and international flights are allowed only for safety, security, or air traffic control-related reasons. Severe weather could cause or exacerbate such situations.
The consumer report also includes data on on-time performance, cancellations, chronically delayed flights, and the causes of flight delays filed with the Department's Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) by the reporting carriers. Many flights along the East Coast were cancelled or delayed because of Hurricane Sandy at the end of October. In addition, the consumer report contains information on mishandled baggage reports filed by consumers with the carriers, and consumer service, disability, and discrimination complaints received by DOT's Aviation Consumer Protection Division. The consumer report also includes reports of incidents involving the loss, death, or injury of pets traveling by air, as required to be filed by U.S. carriers.
On-Time Performance
The reporting carriers posted an on-time arrival rate of 80.2 percent in October, down from both October 2011's 85.5 percent mark and September 2012's 83.3 percent.
The reporting carriers canceled 2.8 percent of their scheduled domestic flights in October, up from the 0.8 percent cancellation rates posted in both October 2011 and September 2012.
Chronically Delayed Flights
At the end of October, there were six flights that were chronically delayed – more than 30 minutes late more than 50 percent of the time – for three consecutive months. There were an additional 16 flights that were chronically delayed for two consecutive months. There were no chronically delayed flights for four consecutive months or more. A list of flights that were chronically delayed for a single month is available from BTS (www.bts.gov).
Causes of Flight Delays
In October, the carriers filing on-time performance data reported that 5.42 percent of their flights were delayed by aviation system delays, compared to 4.98 percent in September; 6.13 percent by late-arriving aircraft, compared to 5.72 percent in September; 4.97 percent by factors within the airline's control, such as maintenance or crew problems, compared to 4.65 percent in September; 0.25 percent by extreme weather, compared to 0.34 percent in September; and 0.03 percent for security reasons, equal to 0.03 percent in September. Weather is a factor in both the extreme-weather category and the aviation-system category. This includes delays due to the re-routing of flights by DOT's Federal Aviation Administration in consultation with the carriers involved. Weather is also a factor in delays attributed to late-arriving aircraft, although airlines do not report specific causes in that category.
Data collected by BTS also shows the percentage of late flights delayed by weather, including those reported in either the category of extreme weather or included in National Aviation System delays. In October, 28.09 percent of late flights were delayed by weather, down 12.11 percent from October 2011, when 31.96 percent of late flights were delayed by weather, and up 1.55 percent from September when 27.66 percent of late flights were delayed by weather.
Detailed information on flight delays and their causes is available on the BTS site on the World Wide Web at http://www.bts.gov.
Mishandled Baggage
The U.S. carriers reporting flight delays and mishandled baggage data posted a mishandled baggage rate of 2.83 reports per 1,000 passengers in October, up from both October 2011's rate of 2.65 and September 2012's rate of 2.70.
Incidents Involving Pets
In October, carriers reported three incidents involving the loss, death, or injury of pets while traveling by air, equal to the three reports filed in October 2011, but down from the five reports filed in September 2012. October's incidents involved one pet death and two pet injuries.
Complaints About Airline Service
In October, the Department received 1,300 complaints about airline service from consumers, up 50.5 percent from the 864 complaints filed in October 2011, and up 20.9 percent from the 1,075 received in September 2012.
Complaints About Treatment of Disabled Passengers
The report also contains a tabulation of complaints filed with DOT in October against airlines regarding the treatment of passengers with disabilities. The Department received a total of 58 disability-related complaints in October, down from both the total of 61 complaints filed in October 2011 and the total of 73 complaints received in September 2012.
Complaints About Discrimination
In October, the Department received seven complaints alleging discrimination by airlines due to factors other than disability – such as race, religion, national origin or sex – down from the total of 15 recorded in October 2011, but equal to the seven recorded in September 2012.
Consumers may file their complaints in writing with the Aviation Consumer Protection Division, U.S. Department of Transportation, C-75, W96-432, 1200 New Jersey Ave. SE, Washington, DC 20590; by voice mail at (202) 366-2220 or by TTY at (202) 366-0511; or on the web at www.dot.gov/airconsumer.
Consumers who want on-time performance data for specific flights should call their airline's reservation number or their travel agent. This information is available on the computerized reservation systems used by these agents. The information is also available on the appropriate carrier's website.
The Air Travel Consumer Report can be found on DOT's World Wide Web site at http://www.dot.gov/individuals/air-consumer/air-travel-consumer-reports. It is available in "pdf" and Microsoft Word format.

Foxwoods' fiscal year earnings 8 percent below projections
This article has been edited to correct the number of employees at Foxwoods.
Mashantucket - Foxwoods Resort Casino's financial performance in the last fiscal year fell short of management's projections, according to the casino's annual report, the first ever made public.
Foxwoods and MGM Grand at Foxwoods, which together comprise the Mashantucket Pequot Gaming Enterprise, reported net revenues of $1.04 billion in the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, 2013, nearly 6 percent less than the $1.11 billion management projected in an August 2012 bondholders' presentation.
The annual report also indicates that in fiscal 2013, the enterprise's EBITDA - earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization - totaled $204.8 million, more than 8 percent less than the $223 million management had projected. EBITDA is considered the leading indicator of financial performance in the gaming industry.
Foxwoods' EBITDA in fiscal 2013 was down 7.9 percent over fiscal 2012's $222.5 million, according to the annual report.
Scott Butera, Foxwoods' president and chief executive officer, attributed the year-over-year decline to bad weather in early 2013 and disruptions associated with the implementation of a new marketing campaign, ongoing hotel renovations and a makeover of the casino's dining and retail outlets.
"We've got a lot going on in terms of redevelopment," he said.
Aside from what it revealed, the public release of Foxwoods' annual report was notable in itself.
Posted on the website of the Electronic Municipal Markets Access system, or EMMA, the more than 60-page report, dated Dec. 27, contains data from the 2013, 2012 and 2011 fiscal years. It includes much of what such reports typically include, including financial statements, balance sheets and management's analysis of the enterprise's financial condition.
Foxwoods began posting financial information on the EMMA site in 2012 in connection with the Mashantucket Pequot Tribe's restructuring of more than $2.2 billion in debt. Previously, such information had only been available to investors and securities analysts. The restructuring, which reduced the tribe's debt to $1.7 billion, was completed this past summer.
"As part of the restructuring, we wanted to be more transparent," Butera said. "It's a good step to take. It's meant to mirror what an SEC filer would do."
Foxwoods does not report its finances to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Until now, the only financial information it regularly made public were monthly reports of its slot-machine revenues. The casino pays a portion of its slots revenue to the state.
The annual report discusses the forces that have caused gaming revenues to decline throughout the Northeast and beyond, namely the weak economic recovery and growing competition, and the steps Foxwoods has taken to combat the trends.
Last March, Foxwoods implemented a "staff reorganization plan" that resulted in a reduction of about 300 employees, about 80 percent of whom voluntarily accepted severance packages. The move reduced payroll costs by $31.8 million, or 8.4 percent, over the previous year, the report says, and left a workforce of about 7,600 workers.
Other operating expenses were trimmed by $23.2 million on a year-over-year basis. The savings were achieved by cutting marketing and promotional expenses, including advertising, headliner fees and casino bus runs, and discontinuing an employee shuttle service, among other things.

Fans encouraged to donate cell phones at all home games in March
The Buffalo Sabres "Green Team" has again teamed up with the non-profit Cell Phones for Soldiers organization to provide troops serving in the U.S. military with cost-free methods of communication with their loved ones.
The collection drive welcomes donations of gently used mobile phones during all six of Buffalo's March home games at First Niagara Center, beginning with the Sabres vs. Devils game on Saturday, March 2. In addition to all home games throughout March, donations can be made at any time during the promotion at account services, whose normal hours of operation at First Niagara Center are Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and on Saturdays from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m.
Donated cell phones will be sent to Michigan-based ReCellular for recycling. For every donated phone, Cell Phones for Soldiers is able to provide two and a half hours of free talk time for deployed troops.
The Buffalo Sabres are dedicated to the sustainability of the environment in Western New York and Southern Ontario through the "Blue & Gold Make Green Initiative." The organization is committed to creating programming to help its fans reduce their environmental footprint and, at the same time, educate Sabres fans on conservation issues, teaching fans how to be greener, and directing them to additional resources where they can learn more about environmental issues.
The Green Program, presented by National Fuel, is supported by Sabres' "Green Partners" NOCO and Modern Recycling.

Colleges as tax havens
Governor's plan puts tax-free zones on campuses to jolt slow upstate economy
Gov. Andrew Cuomo — calling job creation the state's "number-one mission" — on Wednesday unveiled a plan for dozens of tax-free zones on public college campuses across the state.
The zones would be available to new businesses as well as to businesses that relocate from outside the state, and to those that create net new jobs. In the zones, they would face no business or corporate tax, no sales tax, no property tax, no franchise fee and no state income tax for the owner of the company or its employees. The breaks would last for 10 years.
The move comes amid sluggish economic growth across upstate.
"The unemployment rate is the lowest since 2009," Cuomo said. But, "the overall picture is of an economy that hasn't been doing well overall."
The tax-free zones on SUNY campuses are limited to those outside New York City. The initiative also permits tax-free zones at "designated private colleges," but only those north of Westchester. And 3 million square feet of commercial space at private universities will be available for the zones, as will 20 "strategic state assets," presumably including such properties as the Harriman State Office Campus in Albany and the Saratoga Technology + Energy Park in Malta.
Another 200,000 square feet adjacent to each SUNY campus also would be eligible for tax-free status.
It wasn't immediately clear how the tax-free space would be distributed among private universities, and whether technology parks such as the one Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute operates in North Greenbush would qualify.
Further details on how the initiative would work are expected in coming days.
"Net" new jobs means companies cannot just move jobs to a tax-free zone and call it a new job. A new job must be created as part of the move.
Senate Republican leader Dean Skelos, Sen. Jeff Klein, leader of the Independent Democratic Committee, and Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver joined Cuomo at the event at the new NanoFabX building, which is nearing completion at the UAlbany campus. The governor also visited Buffalo and Syracuse later in the day to announce the initiative.
One of the reasons the NanoCollege was chosen for the first announcement is that the school has been buying up properties across upstate in places like Utica and Rochester to set up research operations. Companies from both within the state and outside have been invited to set up operations in these college-owned labs as a job-creation tool.
Only a few years ago, SUNY prohibited private companies from setting up operations on SUNY campuses, although under reforms by SUNY Chancellor Nancy Zimpher, that restriction was removed. Zimpher also joined Cuomo for Wednesday morning's announcement.
The NanoCollege has had private businesses operating on its campus for more than a decade now, but it created its own private nonprofit called Fuller Road Management Corp. to own its real estate, allowing it get around SUNY's restrictions on private companies at the time.
The NanoCollege also set up other nonprofits to operate in a similar manner at SUNY IT outside of Utica where the NanoCollege has set up one of its satellite labs.
Cuomo's new tax-free zone plan builds upon a previously announced plan to set up smaller tax-free zones at a select number of campuses. Those "hot spots" were more limited in scope.

Where were you?
If you hadn't watched this one live, it'd be hard to believe that a three-run home run in Game 5 of the '05 NLCS could be ranked this high, especially when the Cardinals were eliminated in Game 6. But those who bore witness to Pujols' home run will still be talking about it 50 years from now. The hit was equal parts majesty (it hit near the train tracks atop Minute Maid Park) and devastation (Astros fans were one strike away from getting to celebrate the franchise's first World Series berth at home) and it still causes most fans to curse in amazement upon seeing the replay. The ball traveled so high and far that even the Astros made a joke to Lidge that they could see it outside their plane windows on the flight after the game. Quite simply a Hall of Fame moment for a Hall of Fame player.
Interestingly, the Astros figure in three of the top 10 moments. At #4 is the Podsednik Walk-Off in Game 2 of the 2005 World Series, and Chris Burke rounded out the list at #10 with the 18th-inning home run.
But for me, the most memorable home run in Astros history is the Pujols homer. I was in my lucky stance (in the kitchen, looking at the tv over the sink, hands clasped behind my head, and swaying left-to-right), waiting to celebrate the Astros' first trip to the World Series. Instead, as soon as the ball left Pujols' bat I crumpled to the floor, only to get up and vomit in the sink (true story. Ask La Constabless.) I didn't see the ball land until SportsCenter the next morning, after I had called in sick to work.
So, let's do this. Where were you when Pujols hit The Home Run?
Update: C70 at the Bat is referring to this heartbreaking poem.

Honestly? I never saw it.
Playoffs always make me nervous, and I tend to flip channels when the stress level gets high. But I also think I had to help do something, because I know I didn't know AP was coming up.
I turned it back on minutes later, expecting to see the Astros celebrating, and I vividly remember seeing the camera focused on Pujols--in the field. It took me a moment to realize the Cards were leading and it wasn't long after that when I saw the replays.
Of course, I did get this out of it:

I was pacing my living room when Pujols came up to bat. I looked at my wife and said, "He's about to hit a home run."
I watched that at bat knowing in my heart what the outcome was going to be. So, when it happened, I turned off the TV without another word to my wife. I walked into my bedroom, climbed into bed and went to sleep. I couldn't watch any more. I had nothing left.

My old band, "Rigg", was at Pedernales Studio (owned by willy), recording our first and only album. We were a thrash metal band with a southern tinge.

There have been remarkable technological advances in gastrointestinal endoscopy over recent years. Highly flexible, miniaturised endoscopes can now be gently manoeuvred around the stomach and intestines without causing pain, giving doctors a better idea of what is going on inside the body. This makes both diagnosis and treatment easier, safer and more efficient to carry out.
Professor Hans-Christoph Pape is head of the Department of Orthopaedic Trauma and Reconstructive Surgery at Aachen University Hospital. He and his team of highly skilled, widely acclaimed specialists offer traumatology and reconstructive surgery at a leading university hospital.
The Medical Department and Clinic III at the Carl Gustav Carus University Hospital in Dresden is one of the leading diabetes centres in Germany. It currently has the country's only active islet cell transplantation programme and is home to Europe's first chair for diabetes prevention.
Irradiating tumours using proton beams is a highly advanced form of cancer treatment that offers greater control and minimal damage to surrounding tissue. The Rinecker Proton Therapy Centre (RPTC) was opened in Munich three years ago and is the first and currently the only proton radiation centre in Europe to offer a complete hospital setting. Since it opened, the clinic has treated more than 1,300 patients from over 40 countries. The fact that 75 different types of tumour have already been treated proves the broad range of applications of modern proton therapy.
The Department for Paediatric Oncology at Münster University Hospital offers a wealth of experience in the treatment of cancer in children and adolescents.
The Charité University Medical Centre in Berlin, with its long-established tradition, has experience in diagnostics and therapy built up over a great many years. In the medical fields of trauma surgery and orthopaedics, many hospitals in Germany offer highly specialised treatment methods at a leading international level. The aim is to offer top-flight medical care in tandem with high-quality service for patients of all ages, regardless of their cultural background and whether they come from Germany or abroad.

Suppose he had written this:
"You've asked me, 'What might you be?' Now I answer you: 'I am a lover of freedom.' I mean this spiritually and politically. In saying this I refer less to political orientation than to political ethos, and I take 'freedom-lover' to mean one thing: the opposite of bureaucrat. I am a freedom-lover, personally, down deep, and for good. I am outside the whale, and I got that way through social isolation and self-help. But do you know what a freedom-lover is? It's a kind of spiritual condition. A freedom-lover is not only a man who takes orders from himself. He's also a man who's often in the situation where there are no regulations to fall back upon that he hasn't made up himself. He doesn't like bosses—corporate or political—they are all the same to him. He wants to be, and he wants everyone else to be, his own boss at all times under all conditions and for any purposes they may want to follow up. This kind of spiritual condition, and only this, is the kind of freedom I love."
Would the slight changes in wording make any difference?

The Complete Search 4.0 Marketer
Become A Complete Marketer for Search 4.0
This post stems from something SlightlyShady mentioned in his post about Where SEO and Google Will Be in the Next 5 Years". (On a side note: SlightlyShady has his finger on the pulse and tends to very straightforward, frank conversations about the Search Marketing Industry. Moreover, I'd just like to give him a quick shout-out, say "thanks" and keep the veritas coming.)
So here's what struck my attention in the post:
The only way to get above the map results(definitely a click killer) is to…..pay for a PPC listing. Now, SEOs are not PPC experts(largely).
It's not far from the truth. SEOs are not PPC experts, but they should be and they could be. And, to be frank, it's the only sure-fire way to build solid goal conversions for clients:
SEO in combination with PPC
- SEO is (in most cases) for the long-haul. Most clients come to us without optimization, without knowing what it is or how it's done. While the rules of SEO have changed in the past 2 years (thanks to the advent of social networks and media sites), the standards remain the same:
- On-site optimization of as much content as you can effect.
- Off-site link building campaigns: Paid, Free, Corporate Partners
- New ways to generate fresh, engaging content on the website
- PPC is, in my estimation, an excellent and reliable quick strike tool. It's for the instant impact clients' need to have to build brand awareness and site traffic while the SEO portion builds solid content and backlinks.
- It's my opinion that PPC spends should increase after 3 months. By that time, SEO efforts should be bearing fruit in organically, and you'll have plenty of data to weed out the non-performers and boost the high CTR and conversion-producers. Why increase?
- Because if you do a good job on-site for your best converting keywords and long-tails, you'll increase your Google Quality Score and be able to achieve the same position at a lower cost.
Will This Technique Matter in 3 Years?
The question is, do I really believe this is going to work anymore? For the time being, yes, I do. I think SEOs and Search Marketers have about 2 and half to 3 years before the shift happens. Danny Sullivan wrote a very extensive and informative post on SEL about Search 4.0. I think we've got just about that timeframe before personalized search turns SERPs and SEO on it's head.
How To Compete After Google RE-Invents Search
And, I guess, to echo the sentiment, I think SEO will survive that semi-apocalypse. Because, as we all know, there are companies and sites that really need help, even with the basics. However, I believe it will become about each engine's proprietary/purchased applications. For Google: FeedBurner, Local Business Center, AdWords, Reader, Base, YouTube, FriendFeed (not exactly owned by Google, but probably will be), FriendConnect, etc. I don't expect Google's numbers in search domination to drop anytime in the near future, more than likely never. Just look at the latest numbers (thanks to SEL)
I think the only way for Yahoo to survive is to team-up (read "be bought in a hostile takeover") with Microsoft. And, let's face it, Microsoft needs help with search and Paid Ads solutions. They've always been a "Johnny-Come-Lately" with every application (yes, even Webmaster Center and Local Live). And, while Yahoo also isn't up to snuff on the Paid Ads, their search capability and seeming transparency (Search commands: there is a reason that we all use Yahoo! to find the true number of anything on the web) is something Microsoft needs to latch on to in order to have a snowball's chance in hell against Google.
Right now, I'm advising my whole team to get familiar with every application Google has to offer. Know the ins and outs of each application. And as for AdWords, well, it's taking over. My prediction is that before the year's end, Yahoo will be delivering over 25% of Google Ads. And, two years from now, if they haven't teamed up with Microsoft, they'll be over 75% Google Ads. And in 3 years, Sponsored Search/Panama will be nothing but a sad memory, a failed experiment swallowed by Google.
The new way to compete, and I hate to admit it, will be GRAY SEO. Personalized search is going to force everyone to find the shadow-advantages to be the MOST RELEVANT web page in a particular niche. So that, the woman in New Mexico and the guy in Montana both see your client as the one of the most relevant pages for the search they're conducting. To compete, Search Marketers will have to be savvy in all things, not simply SEO, because SEO as we know it today just won't exist. It's going to be a hybrid, a chimera of each engines' applications.

A viral outbreak has happened upon our base on the newly discovered planet Earth II. There were groups of scientists, military, and civilians. We were here to try and form a new Earth. So the planet was called Earth II. This planet was bigger than Earth I. At least two times it's size. There were more species, even ones we lost on our Earth. It was a strange new world, but also dangerous. That's why we were sent here. We are Earth II's Defense Force. A average size unit of soldiers given the assignment to keep the civilians and scientists safe while also keeping Earth II safe as well. But when this virus came upon us we were forced to quarantine the base and everyone in it. No one escaped, no one made it back to Earth I. For if they did the rest of the human race could be put into jeopardy. Sadly that is what is. I lost contact with my superior officer and the rest of the soldiers a few hours ago. Seeing that I was still fine gave me hope of immunity.

Happy October, Parishioners and Subjects! It's shaping up to be a busy month, and I wanted to give you all a brief rundown of the various Vicarage Newsletter items that you might need to know as we press forward into this month of monsters and madness...
- First of all, Code Red DVD is apparently shutting its doors in 2011, an event all lovers of the mad should mourn. They're going out with a bang though, as they've just released the long-promised and salivated-over 30th Anniversary Edition DVD of mine and the Duke's favorite slasher of the 80s, Joe Giannone's 1982 mmmmmasterpiece MADMAN. We love the movie with a burning fiery passion, so much that we made it the subject our our landmark 100th review (which you can read right here). The crown jewel of the disc's presentation is a 92-minute documentary on all things Madman, which I personally can't wait to digest. You can get your DVD on Amazon today, so what are you waiting for?
- BUT WAIT, THAT'S NOT ALL-- In addition to the aforementioned drool-worthy documentary, included on the Madman 30th Anniversary disc is a featurette that...erm...features many notables and unknowns alike performing their own musical renditions of the haunting "Ballad of Madman Marz."Among those featured--The Vicar of VHS himself! Yes, I'm as excited as a Frenchman who just invented self-removing trousers to have made the cut with my fanboy warblings, and doubtless so are you. As if you needed another reason! NOW HOW MUCH WOULD YOU PAY?
- Any parishioners and other interested parties who will be in the NY area of the United States this weekend should note that they just *might* have the chance to rub shoulders with one-half of the Mad Movie Team, as your ever-lovin' Vicar will be attending the New York Comic Con for the first time. (As a fanboy, not as a panelist...yet.) I'll be hanging with other horror blogging luminaries in the area too famous to name-drop here, and hoping to complete my collection of Coffin Joe Comics at last. So if you're going to be there or somewhere nearby, drop me a line and let me know, either on Facebook or via email at vicarofvhs[at]gmail[dot]com!
- If you didn't read this excellent essay on Carrie and its broader socio-cultural implications by Unkle Lancifer at the always entertaining and humblingly awesome website Kindertrauma, you need to go do that right NOW. Seriously.And tell him the Vicar sent you!
- September 6 was the first post-mortem birthday of this blog's patron saint Paul Naschy, who died in November of 2009 after a battle with pancreatic cancer. October has plenty of stuff going on already, but to mark the great man's passing and the importance of his body of work, the Duke and I are tentatively planning for November our first-ever Paul Naschy Blogathon. If you are a blogger or artist or musician or some other stripe of Naschyfile and would be interested in participating, let me know at the aforementioned contact spots. More details as they become available.

It appears to be done by a family member and was possibly done by Jean-Charles de Büren (1636-1719). I imagine my ancestor with a quill and ink reservoir at a large table diligently writing out the early history of the de Büren family. I am sure it never crossed his mind that one of his descendants would be looking at his work 350 years on.

Ada has been honored by the State of Utah as Folk Artist of the Year and is is skilled in the nearly every artistic medium, and is not afraid to try something new.
Even now, at age 84, she is still experimenting, recently having made her own sagebrush dye, to make a tie-dyed shirt.
She, and her good husband Truman, took large traveling exhibits of her work to many cultural events, including Festival of the American West and Utah Folk Festival.
Primarily recognized as a master paper cutter artist, she is also a proficient quilter, tatter, and painter. The Grayson Country Quilters presented her with a quilt they recently crafted, entitled Ada's Flower Garden.
This year's sampler quilt was won by Dick Guymon.
Dorinne Eberhard is the first place winner in the large quilt division for her Bird Mystery Quilt. Each block was of a different design and technique.
First place in small quilts is "Heart Song", a Bargello table runner done in red, black and white, by Deb Bayles.
Connor Montella is first in the youth division for "Twister" done in bright colors set against a black background.
Other winners include Jeri Montella second place in Large Quilts, Deb Bayles, third place for her Stained Glass quilt.
Second place in small quilts is Grandma's Party made by Jonnie Imel; while third place is Superhero by Morgan Glover.
Gift certificates were from Redds True Value.
One of the surprises of the quilt show was a quilt treasure hunt orchestrated by Jonnie Imel.
Imel made a beautiful twister quilt for newleyweds Suzi Bayles and Chad Nelson. They traversed most of the quilt show before they found it.

Bootylicious Florida Gators Quarterback Jeff Driskel Shows Off Jockstrap On Field
Updated Friday, Dec. 13 at 2 p.m. est
The above vision appears to be a Photoshopped miracle, unfortunately. But it doesn't mean that what Driskel actually brings to the football field is any less impressive.
It's too bad this is likely the last sighting of the gorgeous Jeff Driskel in his jock and football tights we'll see for awhile (he's out the rest of the season on an injury), but at least he knows how to go out with a bang!
Best wishes for a speedy recovery to the reason we've started watching collegiate football!
(Via Boy Culture)
I was genuinely curious. I am always fascinated the interesting ways people, who don't normally speak English, phrase their English. :-) It is fun and cool. I have a German friend and when she writes to me I always get a smile when she messes it up. Usually I can tell what she is saying and sometimes I can't! :-) That's all!

Mech games and I rarely get along. Beyond my old arcade days playing Virtua On, my PlayStation love affair with Front Mission 3, and my time playing Mobile Suit Gundam: Gundam vs. Zeta Gundam with my Chinese cohort, I'm not really much of a mech guy. Not only have I missed out on some of the seminal classics, like Mech Warrior, I've also never been able to muster the patience and dedication necessary to enjoy games like Chromehounds and the granddaddy of them all, Armored Core. Thus, when I was tasked with the job of giving my impressions of today's newly released demo of the latest in the Armored Core franchise, I was a little nervous.
After spending about an hour chugging away at the missions, I'd conclude that either I completely suck at Armored Core 4, or the game is very, very challenging. Finding the proper spec for your mech is a science, and if you're not at least a PhD, you're going to be in for a world of hurt. I spent countless lives trying to adjust myself properly, making small tweaks and tunings, before finally being able to overcome some of the levels.
The demo offers a modest collection of three single-player missions, each with a different feel and objective. The problem with a demo for a game as intricate as AC4, though, is that the true joy of the game comes from the excessive amount of customization available. Naturally, the demo limits just how much room you have to adjust, and so a rental would probably be a better way to explore the game before committing your money.
The biggest obstacle for me in this game, though, was the controls. I've always had a problem with the controls of AC games. Many hardcore AC players customize their control set-ups to best match the type of mech they have built. Unfortunately, I have no such storehouse of knowledge. As a result, I spent a lot of time wrestling with the default control scheme. Despite my troubles, though, I wouldn't hold the control scheme against the game: this is a title not meant for anyone but the hardest of hardcore fans of the series, and for them, the included complete control customization is a requisite feature.
On the plus side, the game looks pretty sharp. Though the environments are a little drab, the level of detail in each of the highly-customizable mechs is uncanny. Coupled with the outstanding particle and lighting effects, AC4 offers a solid presentation, albeit with a helping of the "next-gen" color palette of greys, browns, and yellows.
There really wasn't enough in the demo to truly determine if the game would be a worthwhile investment, but critical reaction to the recently released title doesn't bode well. Again, AC4 is a game for the fans, so I doubt that average Joe gamer is going to really get into this title. Regardless, I may give it a rental just to play around. If you're curious, download the demo and have a look; it's free, after all.

On PHPMaster.com today they've posted their series on "speaking REST" (part one is here), developing a PHP-based RESTful framework.
In the first article of his series, David explained how REST is more than an architectural pattern. It's a set of guiding principles that, if followed, can help you write scalable and robust applications. In the following articles, David will resume the discussion by looking at REST from the client-side of the equation. In this article though I'd like to focus on the server-side. You'll learn how to shift your thinking from the action-focused mindset that's prevalent in web development today to a more RESTful, resource oriented, approach, and see one way to structure your code and route URI requests in PHP.
He talks about the change in mindset it takes to create an effective, resource-focused RESTful service and shows some of the initial steps towards getting it all down in code (based on a simplified "front controller" that routes the request appropriately). The resources are defined as classes (like the "Restaurant" in their example) which then handles the type of request based on the request type (GET, POST, etc).

Item: Crosby Shackle - Standard - Galvanized - Screw Pin Type Chain (for frequent open/close) - Working Load Limit: 13,000 lbs - For Chain Sizes: 7/8 inch
Manufacturer / Country of Origin: Crosby / USA
Application: These Crosby Galvanized Screw Pin Type Chain Shackles are used for general purpose connections of slings, cables, and chains in overhead lifting applications. Outfitted with a screw pin closure, these shackles are used in 'pick and place' applications that require frequent opening and closing. This shackle can be used in applications involving side loading, however this reduces the working load limit. During use, assure that the pin is not allowed to rotate, as this may open the shackle.
Description: Made of galvanized steel construction - Close die forged - Quenched and tempered - Designed with a 6 to 1 design factor (theoretical reserve capability of working load limit - Equipped with a Product Identification Code (PIC) for material traceability - Working Load Limit number is forged into the steel - Approved for use in -40° (degrees) F to 400° (degrees) F
Material: Galvanized steel - Body and pin are powder coated
Quality: All Crosby Screw Pin Chain Shackles meet or exceed the requirements of ASME B30.26 which include identification, durability, design factor, proof load and temperature requirements. These Crosby shackles also go above and beyond these standard safety requirements by including fatigue life, impact properties and material traceability, factors that are not required by ASME B30.26. Meets the Federal specification RR-C-271F, Type: IVB, Grade A, Class 2, except for those provisions required of the contractor. Approval and certification in accordance with ABS 2006 Steel vessel rules 1-1-17.7. NOTE: All shackles 25 tons and above are equipped with RFID - radio frequency I.D.
The Difference: Low quality lifting products can cause injury and damage.

Every day thousands of mothers leave their kids in the hands of nannies. They place trust on women they might not know very well and something going wrong is every parent's nightmare.
A Staten Island mother believed something was wrong and installed a hidden nanny-cam in her home.
On January 28 at 4:20 p.m. nanny Mamura Nasirova, 52, was caught on the camera hitting and shaking a 5-month-old baby.
The video captures Nasirova as she is bottle-feeding the child that's in a baby chair placed on the floor. The nanny removes the bottle and smacks the baby across the face.
The baby then starts crying and refuses the bottle. This leads to the nanny hitting the baby on the legs and shaking the baby chair.
According to the New York Post, the family stalled the hidden camera in a carbon monoxide detector after they grew suspicious of the nanny.

The camera was connected to a feed, which the mother watched while the abuse occurred. The mother confronted the nanny and then alerted police and posted the video online.
Nasirova was arrested on Sunday at the family's home. She was charged with endangering the welfare of a child and resisting arrest, moth misdemeanor charges.
She is being help in jail in lieu of $1,000 cash bail.
According to the Post the baby suffered from redness and swelling as a result of the hits.

Hip replacement (total hip arthroplasty) is surgery to replace a worn out or damaged hip joint. The surgeon replaces the old joint with an artificial joint (prosthesis). This surgery may be a choice after a hip fracture or for severe pain because of arthritis.
Various types of arthritis may affect the hip joint:
The goal of hip replacement surgery is to replace the parts of the hip joint that have been damaged. It also helps relieve hip pain that can't be controlled by other treatments.
A traditional hip replacement involves an incision several inches long over the hip joint. A newer approach uses 1 or 2 smaller incisions to do the surgery. This is called minimally invasive hip replacement. But the minimally invasive procedure is not suited for all people who need hip replacement. Your healthcare provider will figure out the best procedure for you.
Hip replacement surgery is a treatment for pain and disability in the hip. Osteoarthritis is the most common reason for hip replacement surgery.
Osteoarthritis causes loss of joint cartilage in the hip. Damage to the cartilage and bones limits movement and may cause pain. People with severe pain from degenerative joint disease may not be able to do normal activities that involve bending at the hip. These activities include walking and sitting.
Other forms of arthritis such as rheumatoid arthritis and arthritis that results from a hip injury can also damage the hip joint.
Hip replacement may also be used to treat certain hip fractures. A fracture is an injury often from a fall. Pain from a fracture is severe. Walking or even moving the leg causes pain.
If other medical treatments don't control your arthritis pain, your healthcare provider may recommend a hip replacement. Some medical treatments for degenerative joint disease may include:
Your healthcare provider may have other reasons to recommend a hip replacement surgery.
Any surgery can have complications. Some possible complications may include:
You may have other risks depending on your specific health condition. Discuss any concerns with your healthcare provider before the surgery.
Hip replacement usually requires a stay in a hospital. Procedures may vary depending on your condition and your healthcare provider's practices.
Hip replacement surgery is done while you are asleep under general anesthesia or sedated under spinal anesthesia. Your anesthesiologist will discuss this with you before the surgery.
Generally, hip replacement surgery follows this process:
After the surgery you will be taken to the recovery room to be watched. Once your blood pressure, pulse, and breathing are stable and you are alert, you will be taken to your hospital room. Hip replacement surgery usually requires you to stay in the hospital for several days.
It is important to begin moving the new joint after surgery. A physical therapist will meet with you soon after your surgery and plan an exercise rehabilitation program for you. Your pain will be controlled with medicine so that you can participate in the exercise. You will be given an exercise plan to follow both in the hospital and after discharge.
You will be discharged home or to a rehabilitation center. In either case, your healthcare provider will arrange for continuation of physical therapy until you regain muscle strength and good range of motion.
Once you are home, it is important to keep the surgical area clean and dry. Your healthcare provider will give you specific bathing instructions. The stitches or surgical staples will be removed during a follow-up office visit.
Take a pain reliever for soreness as recommended by your healthcare provider. Aspirin or certain other pain medicines may increase the chance of bleeding. Be sure to take only recommended medicines.
Call 911 right away if you have any of the following:
Call your doctor right away if you have any of the following:
Don't drive until your healthcare provider tells you to. You may need to limit other activities. Full recovery from the surgery may take several months.
It is important that you don't fall after your hip replacement surgery. A fall can damage the new joint. Your therapist may recommend an assistive device such as a cane or walker to help you walk until your strength and balance improve.
Making certain changes to your home may help you during your recovery. These changes include:

There is a lot of concern these days about the cornerback position after the Cowboys traded Anthony Henry to Detroit for Jon Kitna. I was thinking back today about how excited I was about Mike Jenkins after the 2008 draft. The YouTube video here reminded me exactly why I was so excited. We need the guy in the video to show up in 2009. Towards the end of 2008 Jenkins was starting to show some flashes of his potential but not consistently like you would hope to see from a first round draft pick.
Jenkins is clearly a gifted athlete and hopefully he will show us more in 2009 than he did in 2008. His strength is matching up man-to-man and the Cowboys turned to more man coverage in the second half of the season after Wade Phillips took over the defensive signal calling duties. He was labeled as soft after avoiding contact late in the week 9 game against the Giants last season. The hit on the video above shows that he is willing to put a hit on someone but, again, we need to see it happen in the NFL.
The Cowboys are going to need him to be a big time player so the defense can be dominant next season. Jenkins will be starting opposite Terrance Newman with Orlando Scandrick handling the slot duties if things go as currently planned. That means that Jenkins will be on the field for nearly every defensive snap. And if the they decide not to risk Felix Jones on kick returns then Jenkins is at least another option to consider. It is time for Mike Jenkins to step up and turn his potential into actual production on the field for the Dallas Cowboys.
