When a person thinks of the southeastern part of the state
of Washington,
houseboats don't usually come to mind, but that could be changing. Burbank, Wash. is
uniquely situated where the Snake and Columbia Rivers
converge. In 2010, Ben Harris, a resident of Burbank, saw a great opportunity. He started River
Ranch Houseboats, a rental company near Lake Sacajawea,
with the purpose of expanding the houseboat rental experience in the river
He purchased three houseboats from an Arizona fleet and put $70,000 in renovations
for each boat to repaint, put in new railings, replace the carpet and put in
new appliances. Yet, due to the long renovation process, the 2010 season was
shorter than normal.
"It was kind of a struggle in our first season just because
we didn't get the boats in the water until about June, but we had a lot of good
responses and had some good customers," recalls Harris. "We're ahead of the
game this year in booking. We've booked some rentals during the winter and
spring, which we didn't do last season. But the customers were all impressed
with the boats last year and they gave a lot of great feedback."
Getting out on the water is always a draw, but the
Columbia-Snake junction is unique in that it has the warmest water in Washington and a longer boating season than Lake Roosevelt.
The water is calm and deep, with almost no current, and there are steelhead
runs during the fall. The scenery is relaxing as well.
"You can go up river 40 miles and be among the farms and
orchards, which is nice," explains Harris. "And there is also a boat ramp right
in town, on the Columbia,
where you could park the houseboat and use `big city' amenities. Boaters go to
the local hotels, bars, and restaurants."
Harris feels River Ranch has a unique business opportunity
in the Tri-Cities area, in that there is a population of 250,000 within a
half-hour drive of the marina. The Tri-Cities area features vineyards and
championship golf courses. There is also a large fireworks display on July 4,
and an annual air show during the summer.
Harris says they are gearing up and trying to add some ski
boats to their fleet this season. He also says in the future they hope to
diversify their business plan for the company to include a shared ownership
"We will add to our fleet and turn some of our boats into
fractional ownership boats, where families can actually buy and own equity in a
boat," says Harris. "They will own the boat for a week or weekend, and they'd
get to use it every year that their time comes around. So, instead of renting
from us and our rental fleet, they can own a piece of a boat and use it every
year. They can then trade or sell their piece."
The future is looking bright for River Ranch Houseboats, and
hopefully their growth will spur even more interest in houseboating in the Pacific Northwest. For more information on River Ranch
Houseboats, or to book a rental, visit www.riverranchboats.com or call 877-277-6111.

SQL Tutorial - Learn SQL Query Language
SQL (Structured Query Language) is a computer language aimed to store, manipulate, and query data stored in relational databases. The first incarnation of SQL appeared in 1974, when a group in IBM developed the first prototype of a relational database. The first commercial relational database was released by Relational Software (later becoming Oracle).
Standards for SQL exist. However, the SQL that can be used on each one of the major RDBMS today is in different flavors. This is due to two reasons: 1) the SQL command standard is fairly complex, and it is not practical to implement the entire standard, and 2) each database vendor needs a way to differentiate its product from others. In this tutorial, such differences are noted where appropriate.
This SQL programming help site lists commonly-used SQL statements, and is divided into the following sections:
For each command, the SQL syntax will first be presented and explained, followed by an example. By the end of this tutorial, you should have a good general understanding of the SQL syntax, and be able to write SQL queries using the correct syntax. My experience is that understanding the basics of SQL is much easier than mastering all the intricacies of this database language, and I hope you will reach the same conclusion as well.
Although it is a good idea to go through this tutorial in the above order, it is not required. You are free to go through the site based on how you learn best. Please bookmark this site now and so you can come back to this site whenever you need to remember how a SQL command is used.

DWTS 13: It's a Cinderfella story for Rob and JR
BURBANK, Los Angeles County, CA–Hometown advantage didn't work for Ricki Lake and Derek Hough had won every time he had made the finals until tonight.
Lake seemed like a sure thing. First she was partnered with Derek Hough and some people were voting for him as well as her. Lake and Hough turned in the highest overall average of (26.6). When they made the finals, how could they miss? Hough had also made the finals with Brooke Burke, Nicole Scherzinger, and Jennifer Grey and went on to win the mirrorball.
Yet early on the results show, the bad news came: Lake and Hough were the third place couple.
That meant war vet and soap actor JR Martinez and his partner Karina Smirnoff would be shaking their hips against reality TV celebrity Rob Kardashian and his partner Cheryl Burke in the instant samba dance off.
Martinez, we know, is cool under fire, but not so Smirnoff who seemed to lose her composure during the dress rehearsals from the package shown on Monday night. Martinez was also recovering from a bad sprained ankle from last week. Monday night, his cha cha cha performance got mixed reviews. Still soap opera fans are a loyal bunch and he also likely had the support of some military men as well.
His opponent Kardashian is Los Angeles-born and raised, graduating from USC. He had hometown advantage, but then her also had a handicap. It wasn't his dancing, it was his sister's decision to divorce. There was a national backlash against his sister. Would that result in fewer votes for the Rob Kardashian who was peaking at the right time?
Tuesday night, each finalist performed their favorite routine. Kardashian and Burke received a 26 for his foxtrot to "Fly Me to the Moon."
Martinez and Smirnoff received a 28 for his jive to "Jump, Jive, an' Wail" by The Brian Setzer Orchestra.
Then the two couples faced off on the samba and both earned perfect scores to "Shake Your Bon-Bon" by Ricky Martin.
This is how the two pairs stood point-wise.
JR Martinez and Karina Smirnoff: 112
- Cha Cha Cha = 24 (Monday night)
- Freestyle = 30 (Monday night)
- Jive = 28
- Samba = 30
Rob Kardashian and Cheryl Burke: 113
- Waltz = 27 (Monday night)
- Freestyle = 30 (Monday night)
- Foxtrot = 26
- Samba = 30
Kardashian and Burke were one point ahead with the judges, but had a 25.1 average over the season. Martinez and Smirnoff had a 26.4.
Of course, to fill the time up and to increase the suspense, there were performances by the eliminated celebrity contestants. Didn't you miss Carson Kressley?
A re-do is not Mission: Impossible for Chynna Phillips.
Yet at the end of the night, JR Martinez and Karina Smirnoff won the mirrorball, giving Smirnoff's her first win. Tonight was truly a Cinderfella story for two men: JR Martinez and Rob Kardashian. For them to finish one and two is sort of a fairy tale ending, isn't it?
DWTS 13 FINALS: Rob Kardashian leads
Tonight, Rob Kardashian received his first perfect score for his freestyle performance. J.R. Martinez and his partner Karina Smirnoff also received a 30 for their freestyle, but it was Kardashian and his professional partner's 27 for their waltz that gave them the lead with a score of 57.
- Robert Kardashian & Cheryl Burke : 27+30=57
- J.R. Martinez & Karina Smirnoff : 24+30=54
- Ricki Lake & Derek Hough : 27+27=54
While Martinez and Smirnoff got full points for their freestyle routine, their cha cha cha got mixed reviews. Head judge Len Goodman gave them his lowest score of the night with a 7. Carrie Ann Inaba liked them slightly better with an 8. Bruno Tonioli gave the pair a nine.
Ricki Lake and Derek Hough were good enough to get nines from all the judges for their cha cha cha and also for their freestyle.
Viewers can vote via phone and text message for their favorites ONLY on the night they perform; online voting ends at 11AM ET/8AM PT the day following the performances.
To vote by text message, text the word "VOTE" to your favorite couple's number below from your AT&T phone. Message and data rates may apply.

DWTS 13, Week 9 results: So long Solo
As expected the U.S. Women's Soccer Team Goalkeeper, Hope Solo was the person who left the ballroom. Solo had the lowest score Monday night and also had a sour grape comment.
In reality, Hope Solo had never realized a good dance frame and never seemed comfortable in heels. Her partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy had a verbal altercation with judge Len Goodman earlier in the season as well. Solo and Chmerkovskiy had 49 points for their three dances on Monday night, compared to Ricki Lake and Derek Hough's 67.
Solo and Chmerkovskiy were the best score (with David Arquette and Kym Johnson) for the cha cha cha with 24. The same score tied them with Nancy Grace and Tristan MacManus, Rob Kardashian and Cheryl Burke and Ricki Lake and Derek Hough for the low score in the foxtrot. Solo and Chmerkovskiy were also the low score for the paso doble, tied with Chaz Bono and Lacey Schwimmer and Nancy Grace and Tristan MacManus with 21. Solo and Chmerkovskiy were the low score for the Argentine tango (24) and for the cha cha cha relay (4).
That means the three couples in the finals are:
- Ricki Lake & Derek Hough: 67
- J.R. Martinez & Karina Smirnoff: 56
- Rob Kardashian and Cheryl Burke: 65
DWTS 13, Week 9 (semifinals): So long to Hope Solo?
Last night on "Dancing with the Stars," there were some surprises and some heroics. At the end of the evening, Ricki Lake and Derek Hough were the top scoring team after three dances with 67 points. In second was Robert Kardashian and Cheryl Burke with 65 points.
With the final four, we only two locals: Los Angeles-born reality TV personality Rob Kardashian who attended USC and current Los Angeles resident Ricki Lake.
Lake was born in Hastings-on-Hudson in New York, but after her divorce, she had moved to Los Angeles. In September of 2010, her rented Malibu home burned down although she escaped without injury. In a way, Lake is exactly like the character who made her famous, Tracy Turnblad, a heavyset girl who could dance. She's about 30 pounds lighter now and can she dance!
Lake and Hough scored a perfect 30 for their saucy samba. Kardashian and Burke got a 10 from judge Carrie Ann Inaba who must have been impressed by the butt shaking. Their samba performance tied them with J.R. Martinez and Karina Smirnoff who also scored a 28.
This week in the Argentine tango, they tied for second with J.R. Martinez and Karina Smirnoff. However, Kardashian's routine had more actual dance content. Also DWTS allows lifts in the Argentine tango, at the local Emerald Ball competition, no lifts are allowed in that dance.
Martinez and Smirnoff had little footwork and it was mostly stunts (lifts, dips and other tricks). The judges noted that for a non-dancer to perform such lifts was a real accomplishment, but that isn't really what Argentine tango is about.
Los Angeles professional Argentine tango dancers Sandor and Parissa performed (along with DWTS pros Tony Dovolani, Kym Johnson, Kiki Nyemcheck, Sasha Faber, Oksana Dmytrenko, Anna Trebunskaya), but it was essentially stunt after stunt and didn't give the audience any idea of the more nuanced aspects of the dance. Kardashian's routine had more actual dance content than Martinez's.
Hope Solo might have had difficulty with the higher Latin heel if she was using them, but her Argentine tango routine was also a series of tricks and without smooth transitions. Yet doing lifts and tricks with shoulder pain isn't easy.
Kardashian and Burke were the top team in the cha cha cha relay and were also the last couple to perform.
Hope Solo and Maksim Chmerkovskiy were the lowest scoring team of the night. Solo's frame isn't good–her shoulders are always forward and she still seems uncomfortable in heels. Both J.R. Martinez and Solo have problems with flexed feet but Solo's is one that is more obvious.
Yet one must give credit to both Solo and Martinez. Martinez twisted his ankle badly on Saturday and yet soldiered through three routines without whining. Imagine Chaz Bono doing that. Solo has an old shoulder injury which she feels every time she's holding a dance frame and had to take some pain management shots.
- Ricki Lake & Derek Hough : 30+29+8=67
- Robert Kardashian & Cheryl Burke : 28+27=10=65
- J.R. Martinez & Karina Smirnoff : 23+27+6=56
- Hope Solo & Maksim Chmerkovskiy : 21+24+4=49
Ricki Lake as a winner would also be a triumph for a woman of a certain age and a heavier frame. And we love that fellow USC graduate Kardashian is showing how much confidence dancing can bring.
We hope the two locals, Lake and Kardashian, make it to the finals along with J.R. Martinez.

DWTS 13, Week 8: Nancy Grace leaves the dance floor
After posting the lowest score Monday night on "Dancing with the Stars," TV host and former prosecutor Nancy Grace was eliminated from "Dancing with the Stars." Grace, who danced with new DWTS cast member Tristan MacManus, and lost weight doing it.
Grace was the oldest contestant at 52 during season 13. Donny Osmond with professional dancer Kym Johnson won season 9 of DWTS when he was 51. Jennifer Grey with professional dancer Derek Hough was 50 when she won season 11 of DWTS. Earlier this year, Kirstie Alley at 60 was the oldest contestant to make the finals last season.
This season, Kym Johnson and her partner David Arquette, won't be making the semi-finals, but Derek Hough will. Johnson and her celebrity partner Hines Ward won season 12 (last season).
Of the three new professional dancers, MacManus was the one who lasted the longest. Petra Murgatroyd and her celebrity partner LA Laker Ron Artest (Mega World Peace) were the first couple eliminated. Maksim Chmerkovskiy's brother, Valentin and his celebrity partner model and actress Elisabetta Canalis were the second couple eliminated. MacManus' Irish accent made his pronunciation of third sound like turd to American ears.

DWTS 13, Week 8: JR is a perfect 60
BURBANK, Los Angeles County, CA–Last night, was perfect for J.R. Martinez as he topped the leader board with perfect 30s for both his dances. That means, Martinez and his partner Karina Smirnoff had the first and second perfect scores of DWTS season 13.
The big breakthrough last night was Hope Solo. She finally was able to dance with heels and she received three nines for her quickstep. Solo, more than Lake, has the stamina. Solo and her professional dance partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy ended the night tied for second with Ricki Lake and her partner Derek Hough.
Solo and Chmerkovskiy scored one point better on their instant dance.
The instant dance favors the female celebrities. If they've finally learned how to follow, then their professional partner will lead. All the professional dancers have experience with instant dances because most competitions require heats where the music played isn't chosen beforehand.
For that reason, Smirnoff's strategy and Martinez's accomplishment (receiving a perfect score) are particularly noteworthy. Yet we also want to give Robert Kardashian credit for his efforts to lead. It's not an easy experience for a total novice dancer like Kardashian and Burke has did a good job preparing him for it.
Nancy Grace seems a bit lost. Sure she's older than the other competitors, but she doesn't take the stage or emote. There's a lot of stiffness between moves and she doesn't take advantage of the still moments. We think it's time for Grace to go although we do love her partner Tristan MacManus and we've finally managed to get used to his lovely accent.

Stowaway Sails and Winches, all hydraulically operated, help cruise with limited crew when necessary. Twin Helms on the aft deck combine with the state of the art internal Helm station give the opportunity for the skipper to choose his position depending on the point of sail, along with the prevailing conditions at the time.

Great vision around 360 degrees and excellent natural lighting make this the place to relax during the day. Venturing forward you enter the Piece de Resistance.

Mood lighting sets the scene for intimate dinner party's while generous ports and side windows let the natural light in during the daytime.

I added some free hand art using Sally Hansen Celeb city, a dense metallic silver glitter. I think I was aiming for flowers, but got snowy pine cones instead. I like them regardless. Can never get enough of the blue with silver combo...
UPDATE: I finally located the tutorial from Tartofraises that inspired this manicure. You can find it here.
Blue For You is a dark navy blue with a blue shimmer. In the bottle it has a strong purple shimmer, which didn't translate on the nail at all. Application was decent, although I had a hard time getting it to wrap around the tips. This is two coats plus a top coat...
|Swatch Details
|Brand: Ulta
Line: Professional
Color Name/Number: Blue For You
Number of coats: 2
Top Coat: Yes
Free of Formaldehyde, Toluene, Dibutyl Phthalate (DBP)
I realize I have one too many dark navy blues in my collection. Note to self, stop buying them! :)
Is there a color you gravitate towards buying every time?
Thank for looking!

OKLAHOMA CITY - Thunder coach Scott Brooks was happy to see his team get off to a fast start that made his job easy at the end.
Russell Westbrook shrugged off a sore shoulder to score 19 points and Oklahoma City cruised past the Toronto Raptors 108-88 on Tuesday night.
Serge Ibaka added 17 points for the Thunder, who led by as many as 29 before a sellout crowd of 18,203. They opened the game on a 30-17 run and never looked back.
"I thought the start was a big part of our win tonight," Brooks said. "We've talked about this the last few days. We're just starting to get in a defensive mindset."
Two nights after a nine-point loss to Atlanta, when the Thunder gave up 31 points off 20 turnovers, Oklahoma City controlled the tempo, packed the lane and forced Toronto to try and score from the outside.
"We had good ball pressure and our bigs did a good job," Brooks said. "Any time we can have four hands involved in a pick-and-roll we put ourselves in a position to have some success. I thought our activity and our deflections were good. We moved. We were all over the floor."
Wearing a black padded sleeve to protect his bruised left shoulder, Westbrook held Toronto's leading scorer, Kyle Lowry, to two points on 1-of-4 shooting. Lowry exited with 1:29 left in the second quarter with a right ankle sprain and did not return.
Raptors coach Dwane Casey turned the offence over to seventh-year guard Jose Calderon.
"Jose is a veteran player and he'll be ready to go," said Casey, whose team plays at Dallas on Wednesday night. "That's why I kept his minutes to a minimum tonight. He'll have to play big minutes and John (Lucas III) is a capable point guard, so they'll have to be ready to go. Knowing Kyle, he's a tough guy and he'll get back as soon as he can."
Lowry entered averaging 23.7 points per game. He also led the Raptors with 22 rebounds and 21 assists. His replacement, Calderon, had eight points and four steals in 19 minutes.
Kevin Durant and reserve Kevin Martin each scored 15 points for the Thunder, who never trailed after Durant converted a pair of free throws with 7:44 remaining in the first quarter.
Jonas Valanciunas led the Raptors (1-3) with 18 points and Andrea Bargnani had 16.
Casey said he "didn't recognize" his team Tuesday night.
"We knew they would come out aggressive, focused and we had to meet that type of intensity and we didn't," the coach said. "That was disappointing for our young team, but it was a learning experience."
Brooks was able to rest his starters in the fourth quarter as the Thunder improved to 2-2 with their highest-scoring game of the season. Brooks played 13 of the 14 players on his roster, and Oklahoma City had six players in double figures.
"You need nights like that in the NBA," Martin said. "You're not going to be able to beat teams with three guys, and tonight Serge stepped up and Eric (Maynor) played well. They're going to have nights like that and we're going to need them."
The Thunder shot 50 per cent from the floor in the first half to lead 57-38 at the break and finished the game shooting 47 per cent. Oklahoma City will play at Chicago on Thursday.
NOTES: The Thunder outrebounded Toronto 46-37, including 39-29 on the defensive end. ... Oklahoma City scored 42 points in the paint.

This has been recurring every so often since friday when the Dunkirk event started.
Very annoying since I get no battle results (which means no credit for any kills I have at the time).
2 other people I chat with regularly are also experiencing this constant annoyance.
---I have deleted my cache, run the game verification/repair, restarted my computer, etc etc----yet it continues to happen.

Happy July everyone! It's been said before, but I truly cannot believe how time just whizzes by. I'm excited to bring to you a new feature we have at GingerScraps starting this month: The Designer Spotlight!
Each month we'll be spotlighting a GingerScraps Designer and to kick things off for July, say hello to Rachel, known as Pretty in Green!
Rachel has been a designer at GingerScraps since 2009. In a perfect world, I would have been able to sit down over a cup of tea and chatter away with Rachel about what inspires her as a designer, her family and her hobbies outside of digital scrapping. Instead the Internet brings us together, gotta' love technology!
Today it's all about designing, Rachel as Pretty in Green.
What is your design process?
Once I am inspired I look for just the right colors, or if the colors have inspired me I look at my digi stash and see where I can start, and then I pick out a cardstock overlay and start with solid colors and then patterned papers then the elements, and then sometimes I add just a few more patterned papers.
What software do you use as a designer?
I'm a Photoshop girl.
What motivates and inspires you as a designer?
My kids, my husband, family day to day. I usually create kits that I need to scrap my life, but sometimes colors really speak to me and I go from there, that usually ends up being the really fancy kits. I have found through designing that I'm a girly girl who really likes damask prints, LOL!
Describe your design workplace
My dinning room table, or my living room. During the summer months I sit in the dinning room which is more comfortable. During the winter I move to the living room coffee table because it's warmer in there, but I sit on the floor and that is not so comfortable.
What is your favorite kit you've designed?
Oh man, this is always a hard one, there is something I love about each one of my kits, but if I have to choose, then I'd have to say Courageous because it's a kit inspired by the Pixar's Brave. It's a kit with forest greens and cool blues and touches of warm red, I love the way that kit scraps, it has a lot of ME in it.
Courageous is available in Rachel's GingerScraps store:
It's also currently 30% OFF, BONUS!
Next week, make sure to check back for more about Rachel as we dive into her hobbies outside of digital designing! Until then, hop into the forum and take a look at our new monthly challenge featuring our Spotlight Designer!
Rachel has also generously provided us all with a SUPER coupon during the month of July!
*One time use per customer
Happy scrapping and see you next week!

Saül Binette is not famous.
He is just a father with his little daughter Cécile and his wife Rosa Beauparlant.
This is Saül Binette again with his wife Rosa Beauparlant.
Here Saül is seen with his brother Hormisdas. Hormisdas is on the right in the first row.
That's what I like about Saül. I like to talk about ordinary people on this blog.
Some people search for ancestors who are famous. They go on the Internet and type their names.
I don't.
I mostly work with old pictures like this one…
The man is Honoré Sauvé with his wife Julie Leroux. They are my maternal great-great-grandparents.
Not famous people. They are also Saül Binette's grandparents and now newly found Brenda's great-great-grandparents.
Thank you for sharing! I'm a granddaughter of Saül Binette and I was wondering about my family since I don't have access to the family book anymore (lost it during the parents separation). Again, thank you for sharing!
Brenda Binette
I don't believe Brenda has a copy.
This picture, probably taken in the late 1890s, was part of a bunch of old pictures in two plastic grocery bags that my aunt Evelyne had stashed away in her closet.
I just had to share that bunch of old pictures with everyone.
Share I did since 2009. This article is No. 285!
Now, go on Google and just type Saül Binette. Of course some links are just there to get some traffic.
I don't care much about getting traffic on my blog. I just enjoy genealogy, writing about it and sharing what I found.
I don't like it when bloggers just click on the Like button just to get some traffic on their blogs…

Thanks to the trial of Dr. Conrad Murray, Michael Jackson's name has remained in the headlines. He also, two years after his death, remains the King of Pop.
Forbes has just released their list of the top ten highest-earning dead celebrities, and Jackson tops the list with $170 million. The Jackson estate pulled in the millions through a combination of music sales, Jackson's publishing company, Mijac Music, and their stake in the Sony/ATV music catalog.
The figure also made Jackson the second highest-earning pop act - dead or alive - of the past year, topped only by U2.
U.S. & World
Coming in at #2 is Elvis Presley, whose estate still claimed $55 million even though "The King" passed away in 1977. Marilyn Monroe comes in third, with $27 million over the past year. Monroe's estate was purchased earlier this year by Authentic Brands Group, which markets her likeness.
The rest of the list is made of "Peanuts" creator Charles Schulz ($25 million) at #4, former Beatle John Lennon and Elizabeth Taylor in a tie at #5 ($12 million), scientist Albert Einstein at #6 ($10 million), "Dr. Seuss" creator Theodor Geisel ($9 million) at #8, and a four-way tie at #9 between musician Jimi Hendrix, "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" author Stieg Larsson, actor Steve McQueen, and songwriter Richard Rodgers of Rodgers and Hammerstein fame. ($7 million).
Former Beatle George Harrison, pin-up model Bettie Page, and artist Andy Warhol also made the list.

When my 14-year-old niece Lindsey died last year, my friend Mary took it personally. Although separated by decades, Mary Schnack and Lindsey Stewart shared a common menace: cancer.
Lindsey was diagnosed at age 10 with medulloblastoma, brain cancer. The most common malignant brain tumor in children, it is highly invasive and often fatal. Lindsey died two months short of her 15th birthday.
Mary had been diagnosed at age 40 with endometrial stromal sarcoma. ESS is rare, difficult to treat and often recurs. The typical survival time is three years.
When Mary heard about Lindsey, she reached out. She sent gifts for birthdays, gifts for Christmas, sometimes notes from her travels. When Lindsey's church in Grinnell, Iowa, printed T-shirts emblazoned with "Fight like Lindsey" and "Lindsey's Team," Mary wanted one.
Lindsey had surgery, radiation and chemotherapy, then went into remission. She decided she'd go to medical school.
"She could have done it, too," my brother said. "She was so smart."
Doctors warned that the treatments could impair her intelligence, but Lindsey continued to get straight A's.
A year later, in sixth grade, Lindsey wrote an essay in which she described the day of her diagnosis. She hadn't wanted to go to the hospital, even though her headaches were so severe she often vomited and cried. She knew something was very wrong and she was afraid to find out what. But that Saturday in 2006, she'd started losing her balance, so her parents took her to the ER.
The doctor wanted to do a CAT scan.
"I'm not a betting kind of man," he said, "but I bet you a nickel that the CAT scan will be fine."
After the test, they wheeled Lindsey back to the room and took her parents into the hall. They were gone for what seemed like forever.
Finally, her dad came in alone.
"Where is Mom?" Lindsey asked.
He didn't answer. He just sat at her bedside, clasped his hands and began to cry.
"I knew something was wrong," Lindsey wrote, "because Dad never cries."
Slowly, he started to speak: "They said there is a tumor in the back of your head."
"What does that mean? Am I going to be OK?"
"I kept crying and saying over and over again, 'I can't do this!,'" she wrote in her essay. "At the time, I never thought I could. I calmed down and my mom and I rode in an ambulance all the way to Iowa City…. The whole way down, I kept telling my mom it was going to be OK. Little did I know how much it would affect my whole life."
A year earlier, during treatments, her mother had said, "Lindsey, you know if I had a magic wand I could wave to take this all away, I would do it. You know that, don't you?"
"Oh, Mom, I wouldn't want you to take this away," Lindsey replied. "It's because of this that I know how precious life is. ... I'll never take anything for granted ever again."
Mary, too, knew how precious life is.
She and I graduated from the University of Iowa together. Mary became a journalist, freelance writer, rape-crisis counselor, spokeswoman for a Los Angeles-area hospital, then a media consultant and entrepreneur.
Through her diagnosis and treatments, she continued to work and travel. She created a company that sells crafts made by women from impoverished countries; the idea is to help them earn a living, which helps them gain the power to control their own lives.
She was divorced, and she reared her special-needs daughter, Erika, now 29, virtually alone.
Her initial diagnosis came in 1996 after what had seemed to be a routine hysterectomy. Fibroids, the doctors thought — but they also found cancer.
Mary and her doctors hoped that the surgery had caught all the cancer cells. Chemotherapy isn't particularly effective against ESS, they told her, and they wanted to keep radiation in reserve. She had radiation three years later, when the cancer recurred. It proved ineffective. She was treated with hormone therapy, which seemed to buy her time.
Cancer eventually became part of Mary's routine. She resigned herself to its return every two or three years and built up a prodigious amount of scar tissue from all the surgeries. Yet she kept living, loving, traveling and thriving. She spoke to groups about her cancer and incorporated what she'd learned from it into her business, creating a motivational training program.
And her early surgeries weren't that difficult — her surgeon at Stanford likened removing the cancer to popping a nut out of a shell.
"I've learned this isn't going to kill me," she told me once. But she'd also dreamed that she wouldn't live past 55.
In January 2011, Mary had her seventh surgery. That one was more difficult; the cancer had invaded a vein that fed her left leg. The operation was successful, but it took a toll.
"I don't want to be amazing," she blogged that month. "I don't want to be strong. I don't want to be an inspiration to others. What I want is — I just don't want to do this anymore."
When Lindsey died two months later, on March 4, Mary was devastated. Soon after, she felt something wasn't right in her abdomen. She hoped it was just scar tissue, but doctors confirmed the cancer had returned.
Mary didn't want surgery immediately; she'd just recovered from her seventh operation and she needed to earn money for medical bills. When she had the operation — her eighth — on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, the cancer no longer popped out like a nut. Doctors couldn't remove all of it. They had to take part of her abdominal wall and replace it with mesh, which they warned was prone to infection.
Recovery came haltingly this time. Even morphine didn't seem to help with the pain. Then she got pneumonia. I decided I'd better go see her in the hospital at Stanford in case she never got out.
When I visited Dec. 9, she looked and sounded great. Doctors had told her she probably would be released within days. The typical Mary had resurfaced — optimistic and looking to the future.
The next day, I returned to Los Angeles. I went to a holiday party that night, taking a tiny beaded purse with no room for my cellphone.
When I got home, I found two texts Mary had sent at 10:18 p.m.:
"What a special afternoon. It all went downhill from there. Back into surgery again now. ... They asked this morning for a chaplain contact and this afternoon for me to get support people here. I love you so much."
She had developed sepsis.
Mary didn't expect to survive the surgery — yet she did. She needed several more operations in the next week to clean out the wound, and powerful antibiotics to resolve the infection.
Doctors replaced the mesh with a porcine graft and essentially left the wound open, attached to a vacuum device that suctioned out toxins from a leaky bowel. She'd need a skin graft eventually if she were ever to heal.
I made plans to visit, but she said not to come, that she'd soon get out and come to Southern California.
But on Jan. 2, she had a stroke, which took her sight. On Jan. 4, she had another one, which left her paralyzed on the left side. By the time I saw her, she'd lost most of her ability to speak. Doctors told her that she was terminal, that she wouldn't survive another surgery, and that the cancer was growing again.
Although she could barely string three or four words together, she summoned the will to tell her daughter, "Erika, I love you so much. I'm going to take care of you."
"Mom, we're going to take care of you," Erika replied. "You're the one who's in that hospital bed."
Mary went for hospice care to Sedona, Ariz., where her many friends teamed up to care for her, sit with her, read cards and letters to her. One was from her mother, 90 and too fragile to travel from Iowa to her daughter's bedside.
Sedona's annual film festival in February included a documentary: "When Cancer Returns 8x: The Mary Schnack Story."
The filmmaker, Karen Frye of Phoenix, had begun documenting Mary's struggle in 2010. As the premiere approached, Mary insisted they have a film party.
Erika left the room as the screening began. "I don't want to see it," she said.
But she could hear — and on the film, she heard Mary laugh. Erika came running back into the room, pointed at the screen and said, "That's my mom! That's my mom!"
The next day, Mary slowed down.
"Monday evening found just myself and my husband in the bedroom with Mary," wrote her friend and primary caregiver, Bobbie Surber. "I was holding her hand when all of a sudden for the very first time Mary was not holding my hand in return. I just knew she was leaving us.
"As we both told her how much we loved her, how much she meant to so many around the world and how we would all care for Erika, Mary started to slow her breathing. We said the Lord's Prayer and before we knew it, Mary had passed. … Mary left this world knowing she was deeply loved."
One of Mary's friends left this note on Mary's Facebook page the next night:
"Mary, I just went to the Surbers' house to take them some eggplant parmigiana. No one answered so I let myself in, put the platter in the fridge and went to kiss you goodnight and tell you I'd be there tomorrow night to read to you.
"I had not checked my emails. The bed was empty and Erika courageously told me you were gone. I am writing here to send you my love and that kiss goodnight. … Safe journey back home."
Mary died on Feb. 20, 2012, at 55.
Last Christmas, someone named a star for Lindsey. Her parents wondered who had been so thoughtful. They asked relatives. They asked around town. They asked at the church. We posted a query on Lindsey's memorial Facebook page. No one came forward.
The other night, as I told my brother about Mary's death, I wondered: Did Mary name that star? It was exactly the sort of thing she'd do.
Now I'll never know.
I do know that when I look at the stars, I'll see Lindsey and Mary together.
When my 14-year-old niece Lindsey died last year, my friend Mary took it personally. Although separated by decades, Mary Schnack and Lindsey Stewart shared a common menace: cancer.

A Parent's Prayer for Children
>> Monday, December 14, 2009
Here's a prayer for children which I adapted from Catholic Online, for use by the Sto. Nino group. This is a prayer of parents for their children. As parents, it is essential that we teach our children how to pray so that they may grow to have a deep faith in God.
You can also adapt this according to your preference and use your own words. Allow the Holy Spirit to move you and you have a very beautiful and powerful prayer that is coming from the heart.
O Senor Sto. Nino, we commend our children unto thee,
those who are present here before you namely (state name of children)
and those who are in the comfort of their homes.
Grant Senor Sto. Nino, that they may grow
to serve you, love you and know you.
Protect them always from harm, evil and sickness
and watch over them as they grow.
Strengthen them to overcome the corruptions of the world,
to resist all solicitations to evil,
whether from within or without;
and deliver them from the secret snares of the enemy.
Pour Thy grace into their hearts,
and confirm and multiply in them
the gifts of Your Holy Spirit,
that they may daily grow in grace
and in the knowledge of You;
and so, faithfully serve You here,
and may they come to rejoice in Your presence hereafter.
O Senor Sto. Nino, who has given unto us these children,
and committed them to our charge to bring them up for Thee,
and to prepare them for eternal life:
help us with Thy heavenly grace, that we, as parents,
may be able to fulfill this most sacred duty and stewardship.
Teach us what to give and what to withhold;
when to reprove and when to forbear;
make us to be gentle, yet firm;
considerate and watchful;
and deliver us equally from the weakness of indulgence,
and the excess of severity;
and grant that, both by word and example,
we may be careful to lead them in the ways of wisdom
and true piety, so that at last we may, with them,
be admitted to the unspeakable joys of our true home in heaven,
in the company of the blessed Angels and Saints.

Study concludes that patients in the lower bEos group were not dependent on ICS therapy to achieve adequate control of their asthma
Singapore: Cytos Biotechnology revealed additional results of the phase IIa clinical trial with CYT003, a first-in-class immune modulator in clinical development as a potential new treatment for allergic asthma. A post-hoc analysis of data published in the March issue of The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology were presented at the European Respiratory Society Annual Congress in Barcelona.
The post-hoc analysis looked at TH2 activation assessed by baseline blood eosinophil (bEos) count as predictive marker for a response to the treatment with CYT003 versus placebo. The patients from the Phase IIa study were stratified into the two subgroups based on the median bEos in the overall study population: a lower bEos group was defined with peripheral eosinophils at ≤0.1 cells/nL and a higher bEos group was defined with peripheral eosinophils at >0.1 cells/nL.
The results of the post-hoc analysis suggest that the efficacy of CYT003 measured by asthma control, symptoms and medication use, bronchodilation and inflammation markers, is particularly evident in patients with allergic asthma in the higher bEos group. Patients treated with placebo experienced deterioration on all outcome measures, whereas patients treated with CYT003 remained controlled despite ICS withdrawal. In contrast all patients with low bEos remained controlled in spite of steroid withdrawl.
This observation suggests that patients in the lower bEos group were not dependent on ICS therapy to achieve adequate control of their asthma. Of particular note, the effect on asthma control and FEV1 in CYT003- compared to placebo-treated patients was more pronounced in the higher bEoS patient subgroup than the reported outcome for the full study. These findings add to the evidence supporting the anti-inflammatory effect of CYT003 and its potential clinical benefit in patients with allergic asthma.
Professor Ian Pavord of the department of respiratory medicine, allergy and thoracic surgery, Glenfield Hospital, Leicester, UK, who conducted the post-hoc analysis said, "With this analysis, we identify a level of peripheral blood eosinophil cell counts that identifies the patients who are more dependent on ICS to maintain asthma control. These patients had a better response to CYT003, further supporting the potential clinical benefit of CYT003 in allergic asthma patients."

A crash involving a big-rig carrying 56,000 pounds of wine has snarled traffic on northbound U.S. Highway 101 in Santa Rosa this morning, a California Highway Patrol officer said.
The crash was reported at 7:56 a.m. just north of Highway 12, and involved at least one other vehicle, according to preliminary reports.
It does not appear that any of the wine spilled onto the roadway, but the No. 2 and 3 lanes are expected to be closed until about 9 a.m. as crews work to clear the crash, the CHP officer said.

Cotton Bowl community service project brings Wildcats and Razorbacks together for a cause
MANHATTAN -- Wildcats and Razorbacks can work side by side and give back to the local community during a volunteer project that coincides with the AT&T Cotton Bowl Classic.
The project happens from 9 a.m. to noon Thursday, Jan. 5 -- one day before the Friday bowl game kickoff at 7 p.m. in Arlington, Texas. The project will involve volunteers from both Kansas State University and the University of Arkansas.
It is the first time the university has participated in a service project that coincides with a bowl game.
"K-State has long been regarded as having some of the most loyal and supportive fans in the nation," said Gavin Hargrave, associate director of alumni programs for the K-State Alumni Association. "K-Staters also are known for their compassion and willingness to help others. We are looking forward to this opportunity to work together with volunteers from the University of Arkansas to assist those in need in the Dallas area."
The community service project is open to K-State fans of all ages. Volunteers will help sort clothes, food and furniture for Mission Arlington, which serves more than 1,000 clients in the Arlington community each day. The mission is located at 210 W. South St. in downtown Arlington.
Registration is not necessary for the project. For more information, contact Gavin Hargrave at 785-532-5057 or firstname.lastname@example.com. For more information about Mission Arlington, visit http://www.missionarlington.org.

ERCIS, Turkey, Oct 24 (Reuters) - Rescuers searched the rubble of collapsed buildings on Monday for survivors and victims of a major earthquake that killed at least 279 people and injured more than 1,300 in mainly Kurdish southeast Turkey.
Rescue and relief efforts focused on the city of Van and the town of Ercis, 100 km (60 miles) to the north, but hundreds were also feared dead in remote villages of mud-brick houses after Sunday&${esc.hash}39;s 7.2 magnitude quake, Turkey&${esc.hash}39;s strongest in a decade.
Desperate survivors cried for help beneath heaps of smashed concrete and twisted metal, some using mobile phones to tell friends they were alive, as earth-moving machines and troops raced against time in Van and Ercis.
Thousands of people made homeless by the quake were forced to spend a second night outdoors in the hilly, windswept Van region, enduring near-freezing temperatures. Families huddled round open fires that glowed in the dark. Some stayed in tents put up on soccer pitches, living on handouts from aid agencies.
The U.N. disaster agency said almost 1,000 buildings had collapsed, many of them poorly built. A Red Crescent spokesman said the agency was preparing to provide refuge for as many as 40,000 people, though it was so far impossible to tell how many would need shelter.
Some residents of Van and outlying villages complained of a lack of government assistance, despite the dispatch of troops, mobile kitchens and up to 13,000 tents.
"We have to fit 37 people in one tent," said Giyasettin Celen, a 29-year-old who lost three family members in Dogonu Koyu, a village beside Lake Van where he said 15 people died.
"Our lost ones were carried like animals, on top of each other, in a transport van. Our main source of income here is livestock breeding, but we don&${esc.hash}39;t have anywhere to keep them. We will have to sell them now," he said.
Throughout the day, rescue workers pulled people out alive.
"Be patient, be patient," rescuers in Ercis told a whimpering boy pinned under a concrete slab with the lifeless hand of an adult, a wedding ring on one finger, visible just in front of his face.
A Reuters photographer saw a woman and her daughter being freed from beneath a concrete slab in the wreckage of a six-storey building.
"I&${esc.hash}39;m here, I&${esc.hash}39;m here," the woman, named Fidan, cried out hoarsely. Talking to her regularly while working for more than two hours to find a way through, rescuers cut through the slab, first sighting the daughter&${esc.hash}39;s foot, before freeing them.
In Van, an ancient city of one million on a lake ringed by snow-capped mountains, cranes shifted rubble from a collapsed six-storey apartment block where 70 people were feared trapped.
One woman, standing beside a wrecked four-storey building, told a rescue worker she had spoken to her friend on her mobile phone six hours after the quake trapped her in the wreckage.
"She&${esc.hash}39;s my friend and she called me to say that she&${esc.hash}39;s alive and she&${esc.hash}39;s stuck in the rubble near the stairs of the building," said her friend, a fellow teacher. "She told me she was wearing red pyjamas," she said, standing with distraught relatives begging the rescue workers to hurry.
Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan flew to Van to assess the scale of the disaster. It is a quake-prone area that is a hotbed of activity for Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK) militants.
Erdogan said he feared for the fate of villages with houses made of mud brick, saying: "Almost all buildings in such villages are destroyed."
Deputy Prime Minister Bulent Arinc said the death toll had reached 279, with 1,300 injured, and more were unaccounted for.
The quake brought fresh torment to impoverished southeast Turkey, where PKK militants fighting a decades-long insurgency killed 24 Turkish troops south of Van last week.
The area it struck, near the border with Iran, is remote and mountainous, with long distances between villages and people who live off stock-raising, arable farming and trading.
The hardest-hit town was Ercis, a town of 100,000, where 55 buildings crumpled, including a student dormitory.
At one collapsed four-storey building, firemen from the major southeastern city of Diyarbakir were trying to reach four missing children. Aid workers carried two large black bags, one apparently containing a child&${esc.hash}39;s body, to an ambulance. An old woman wrapped in a headscarf walked alongside sobbing.
A distressed man paced back and forth before running towards the rescue workers on top of the rubble. "That&${esc.hash}39;s my nephew&${esc.hash}39;s house," he sobbed as workers tried to hold him back.
The Red Crescent has delivered 5,000 tents to Ercis alone and a tent city has been set up at Ercis stadium. But residents said tents were being given only to relatives of police and soldiers, a possible source of tension if confirmed.
"The villages have not received any help yet. Instead of making a show, politicians should be visiting them. The Turkish military says they sent soldiers, where are they?" said a municipality official in Van who did not want to be named.
Ibrahim Baydar, a 40-year-old tradesman from Van, accused the government in Ankara of holding back aid. "All the nylon tents are in the black market now. We cannot find any. People are queueing for them. No tents were given to us whatsoever."
Rescue efforts were hampered by power outages after the quake toppled electricity lines to towns and villages.
More than 200 aftershocks have jolted the region since the quake, lasting around 25 seconds, struck at 1041 GMT on Sunday.
"I just felt the whole earth moving and I was petrified. It went on for ages. And the noise, you could hear this loud, loud noise," said Hakan Demirtas, 32, a builder who was working on a construction site in Van at the time.
"My house is ruined," he said, sitting on a low wall after spending the night in the open. "I am still afraid, I&${esc.hash}39;m in shock. I have no future, there is nothing I can do."
The Red Crescent said about 100 experts had reached the earthquake zone to coordinate rescue and relief operations. Sniffer dogs had joined the quest for survivors.
Major geological fault lines cross Turkey, where small tremors occur almost daily. Two large quakes in 1999 killed more than 20,000 people in the northwest.
The quake had no impact on Turkish financial markets when they opened on Monday.
In Van, construction worker Sulhattin Secen, 27, said he had at first mistaken the rumble of the quake for a car crash.
"Then the ground beneath me started moving up and down as if I was standing in water. May God help us. It&${esc.hash}39;s like life has stopped. What are people going to do?"

Today Kathleen's Estie Clinic is discharging two patients.
The Blue Transitional underwent a sac ectomy and sac replacement plus an upgrade to 9550 nib.
The Green J is recovered with a J bar replacement and also underwent a sacectomy and sac replacement.
Both pens are delighted to be released from the clinic, just in time for Christmas! Before being discharged the Green J was requesting Diamine Sherwood Green ink.
Sadly some other patients remain in the clinic languishing in the pre-op tray, several are in pieces having already undergone exploratory examinations). With Christmas so close, no more surgeries will be scheduled until after the first of the year.

Apple's Mac platform has grown at an incredibly rate -- on its own and as compared to the rest of the industry.
Mac now has 5.2 percent of the worldwide market, according to Needham & Co. Apple sold 4.89 million units during the recently closed quarter in September -- a growth rate of 24.6 percent from a year ago. Overall, the rest of the market grew 5.3 percent.
Apple's share of worldwide profits was 14 percent, according to The Next Web.
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
What stood out is the amount of businesses migrating to Apple's Mac platform. Most likely a coattail result of the immense consumer electronic success of Apple products, the company saw a 43.8 percent growth in the recent quarter.
The rest of the market saw ... 4.8 percent growth.
One area Macs fell off was in education, with 2.9 percent growth. The rest of the market saw ... 16.9 percent.
But, given Apple's margins, that enterprise number is huge. It's also being attributed directly to new CEO Tim Cook, who is apparently "easier to work with" than Steve Jobs was.
