Court Supervision: Chris Vaughn Launched For Life
Quadruple-killer Christopher Vaughn getting sent to prison for the rest of his life was just one of the things going on at the Will County Courthouse this week.
Last week was a short one, with Thanksgiving Day and Thanksgiving Day II giving us a bit of a break from the courthouse. But we got right back to it Monday with the attorney for quadruple-killer Christopher Vaughn blaming the guilty verdict on Drew Peterson and Drew Peterson's lawyers, among other things. The judge didn't buy this line of reasoning and declined to call a do-over and hold a whole new trial. Then he slammed Vaughn with four life sentences. That was rough. But at least Vaughn got an early start at serving all that time, as the county packed him off to Stateville Correctional Center the very next day. But that's not all. Let's look at what else was going on down at the courthouse during the week that just ended:

Laser Rangefinders are an extremely useful development. Along with nightvision systems, rangefinders are one of the biggest leaps forward in imaging technology in the past 20 years. Rangefinders use LIDAR, or Light Detection and Ranging, technology to bounce a laser beam off an opaque target. The rangefinder detects the light bounced off the object and can make various measurements of the object based on the returned light. All of this happens virtually instantly at the push of a button. Laser range finders use a wavelength and laser power setting that is eye-safe.
The name digital rangefinder is deceiving. LIDAR devices can typically measure several different variables including distance, speed and angle. Some brands even offer GPS-enabled rangefinders. These measurements have made golf rangefinders, hunting rangefinders and binocular rangefinders a very popular choice for enthusiasts.
Beyond recreational use, a range finder is used in many professional applications as well as by law enforcement and the military. Industrial range finders are used by surveyors and other in the field, while military rangefinders offer a significant tactical advantage in the field whether for shooting, or identifying a target at range.
Stand-alone range finder monoculars are extremely popular with golfers and casual users. Many hunters and serious outdoor enthusiasts choose rangefinder binoculars or rangefinder riflescopes that efficiently combine laser rangefinding features with another optics package. These are popular because it eliminates an extra piece of equipment to carry, is lighter overall, and eliminates the need to take your eyes of your target to get an accurate range reading.
The top optics brands all manufacture rangefinders. Optics Pricer makes is easy to select the features you want and compare prices on Bushnell rangefinders, Leupold range finders, Zeiss rangefinders, Nikon range finders, Steiner rangefinders, Swarovski range finders, Simmons rangefinders and laser range finders from other top brands. Some of the more popular golf rangefinder are the Bushnell Yardage and Pinpro lines, the Leupold RX-600, Zeiss Victory range finders, and the Nikon Prostaff, Monarch and Nikon Rifle Hunter lines.
With so many options and product lines, selecting the right range finder for your budget can be difficult. Optics Pricer has designed our exclusive Range Finder Slider tool to help you quickly and easily compare products. Our price comparisons, merchant reviews and coupons and other discounts ensure you have all of the information you need to get the best deal from a reputable optics specialist.

The Balkans region in southern Europe has been unsettled since the dismantling of Ottoman dominance there in the late nineteenth century. During the twentieth century, ethnic and sectarian tensions not infrequently brought war to the region, most recently during the 1990s amid the breakup of Yugoslavia. The United States played a significant role in bringing peace to Bosnia in 1995 and to Kosovo in 1999, but the region faces continued instability.

Consumer Reviews of York furnaces
It's free, fast and safe
Read more about York furnaces

Location: Canton, MI
Satisfaction Rating:
"I agree, York is a piece of crap"
Had furnace installed just over 2 years ago, woke up yesterday to no heat. Had repairman out and he got it started, said it was a faulty wire. Woke up this morning, no heat again!! Should have read these reviews first.
Location: Calgary, AB Canada
Satisfaction Rating:
"York - High Efficiency - Terrible!!!"
3 visits to try to fix. Will not maintain heat. 1. Have had the limit switch replaced. 2. Have had the control board switched out. 3. Another visit - can't remember what was done during that initial visit. (issues starting from just under year 2) Having issues again this year. Have had the unit 5 years.
Location: Nevada
Satisfaction Rating:
I have had Bryant, Lennox, Rheem furnaces in the past in different houses and everyone of these brands had to have service repair work done at some point. I have now owned a York yp9c modulating gas furnace for about 2 years and had a drain pan replaced under warranty that took 15 minutes for the service guy to replace which was free. Look at every brand and you will find issues if you want to but this York modulating furnace is just awesome. Evenly heats the home and I never know that is is running. Most of the problems that I see with all the new technology furnaces that are out there now is install error. Lots of clueless hacks out there installing. Buying a labor warranty for any of the new furnaces or a/c out there is wise. If the dealer doesn't offer any just run! There is a good reason why they won't offer a labor plan.

"York products are Junk"
This unit is junk. Have had it serviced at least twice a year since it was installed. The blower had to be replaced, the inducer motor had to be replaced twice, 3 pressure switches had to be replaced along with various other parts. Had this unit less than 6 years and will never buy another York product.

"York Gas Furnace"
I had my home built 6 years ago and the builder installed a York furnace. The unit worked fine for the first three years. After than I have had to replace the inducer motor, igniter amd control board twice. Once under warranty (2009) and then again in 2011 at my expense $1600. When I started to run my furnace this year I woke up one cold morning with no heat! The service tech came and informed me that once again the inducer motor was bad and he suspected there was more wrong. I wasn't about to spend more good money on a bad investment. I had them replace the York junk with a Trane. I will never have anything built by York in my home again.
Location: Charlotte,NC

"Terrible Gas Unit"
I had this house built about 7 years ago and this York gas furnace have been nothing but trouble. Just today I had to replace the control board, at a cost of $536.76. Every service technician have told me if I want to ever change out the unit, don't ever buy a York!! I will take their advice!

"Piece of Junk!"
We installed our York Affinity 9.c Series 96% High Efficiency furnace in August of 2008 and have now had it "fixed" three times. It worked for 2 heating seasons but each subsequent fall when we turn the heat back on in October, it doesn't work. Initial problem has been local service men who don't know much about high efficiency furnaces and told us it was the pressure switch, but we just got a York specialist out who told us we needed an "upgrade kit" which improves the electric communication system. This kit costs $1100. So basically there is enough of a problem with this furnace that the company has created a fix but instead of admitting the faulty manufacturing of the unit, they call it an "upgrade" and demand you pay $1000 if you want your 2 year old furnace to do what it's supposed to do. This is insane.

"Worst furnace ever"
My furnace is 5 years old. {builder installed} I bought the extended warranty and am I glad I did. I have had thousands of dollars worth of work done. I have had 2 blowers, the a/c was recalled, new circuit board, new switch, motor mounts and on and on. I live in Minnesota and am a senior citizen so I need my heat. I have it serviced in the fall and spring and had to replace a heating element the first year but nothing ever shows under routine maintenance. I had to go to the hospital and had a sensor put on but lived in fear. I can't take a winter vacation!!! Bad news...never again! My dealer had no emergency service this weekend also.

"Model yp8co80c16mp11 - broke after 2.5 yrs. -lemon"
York owned by Johnson Controls. Heater broke after 2.5 heating seasons. York Will not admit the heater is a lemon and do the right thing - fix it. Central Air conditioner broke after 2 winters. Paid $6100 for both in July2009. Was hoping they would last at least 3 years. Bunch of corporate crooks.

"York HVAC Serial W0G7026460"
Installed Oct 2008, Freon replaced 8/2011 $294. Valves leaking, freon gone May 2012 $844. York doesn't care, no warranty. There is a class action suit forming against york on complaints.com. please sign up if you have paid for repairs that york has ignored. York blames their units problems on the installer, they have no warranty and we need to join up and get back companies who have warranties. We can all get rid of york if we join in together, power of the people!!

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also referred to as "Lou Gehrig's disease," is a progressive motor neuron disease which leads to problems with muscle control and movement.[1][2] There are various types of ALS, which are distinguished by their signs and symptoms and their cause.[2] Early symptoms may include muscle twitching, cramping, stiffness, or weakness, eventually followed by slurred speech and difficulty chewing or swallowing (dysphagia). As the disease progresses, individuals become weaker are are eventually wheelchair-dependent. Death often results from respiratory failure within 2 to 10 years after the onset of symptoms. Most affected individuals have a sporadic (not inherited) form of ALS; about 5-10% have a familial (inherited) form of the condition. Familial ALS may caused by mutations in any one of several genes and the pattern of inheritance varies depending on the gene involved.[2] Treatment is generally supportive.[3]

Performers: Trey Anastasio, Page McConnell, Jon Fishman, Mike Gordon
Notes: This show started with bad sound problems, resulting in the band aborting two attempts at a Chalk Dust Torture opener. After the first Chalk Dust failed, the band said a round of "thank yous" and Fish added "good night, we'll see you next time." Antelope's intro contained a vocal jam and was followed by a Jean Pierre tease from Trey. The YEM vocal jam was partially based on burgers. Before Terrapin, Fishman was introduced as "the late Henrietta," and then commented that he is no longer Henrietta, but has not yet thought of a new name. He and Trey introduced Chris Kuroda (as "Cooter," with a "Charge!" tease) and Colorado fan "Erik the Viking." Terrapin included a brief Whole Lotta Love jam.
This show was part of the "1991 Winter/Spring Tour."

Second purchased. One at grandmother house. This one going to grandchildren house
Our granddaughter LOVED the table we got
By Mim
from Swansea, MA
The table and chairs we bought are wonderful, and such a great addition to our home for when our 2 1/2 yr. old granddaughter visits. She used it a great deal during her visit over Thanksgiving. It's so easy to set up and take down, and takes up minimal space when folded. I wish I knew, though, that the table top is not real wood. We will be able to use this set for many years as we have two new grandchildren born this year.
Kids Folding Wood Table and Chairs
By Doting Grandma
from Winston-Salem, NC
Brought it to use when my grand daughters are visiting (2 yrs old and 8 mos old). The two old loved it. She ate meals on it and we did arts and crafts on it. Would have loved if the table top was a primary color. Chairs really sturdy, though the table is OK, would have loved if it was a bit sturdier. Love that it's foldable, so it can be put away, when not in use.
Great little table.

Gfreat customer service
By Grammy of 4 under 4
from Waco, TX
I wanted a table/chairs for grandchildren for Thanksgiving. When the first table arrived, the edges were split on 2 sides, and corners did not meet. I was going to keep it, but my comments in an email resulted in an immediate phone call and receipt of a replacement table within 1 week. The new table is in perfect condition, and one 2 year-old-grandson has already used the table and chairs. He loves it. Very happy with the customer service.

Nice, but...
By Grandma Beth
from Cincinnati, OH
This table seems very sturdy and sets up in a second. Although some have complained that the legs do not lock in the closed position, the box can easily be saved to store the table when not in use, so the "loose" legs when folded is a non-issue. My complaint is with the laminated table top. Although I just purchased this, I can easily see that the top will wear out. It's not "real wood" like the rest of the table or the matching chairs. I would have paid a bit more if the top were wood, and don't understand the reason for this design. Given the raised edges, if a child spills anything on this tabletop, I imagine it would collect and seep under the laminate, destabilizing it and ultimately causing it to come off and/or buckle (as other reviews have suggested). The tabletop "should" either be real wood and/or there shouldn't be a raised edge that makes it impossible to clean in the corners or absorb a spill that collects in the edge. I'd like to use a plastic tablecloth on it to protect the laminate, but the edge is an issue there, too.
Wonderful Play Table
By Grammie of One
from North Branch, MI
About Me Budget Shopper
I purchased the table to go with the two chairs that were displayed with it, for my 2 year old granddaughter. She absolutely loves it! Once she goes home, I can fold it up and put it out of mind. A win-win purchase!
Excellent table. Sturdy and fun.
By Lucky

My grandson loves this table and the matching chairs too. We use them often. Very sturdy and I can fold them & put away when we're done.

Best quality children's table ever!
By redgarnet54
from Seminole, FL
Bought the set for my home when my grandkids visit. I don't have the space for a permament youth table and chairs, and this fit the bill perfectly. Very well made and safe. Locks when opened and easy enough for adults to fold. My 2-1/2 year old grandson loves having his own place to sit for both eating and playing at. He also loves the bright colors of the seats which are primary colors so easy for little ones to identify and name. To protect the table top from any scratching, etc., I purchased some heavy gauge vinyl in yellow (another primary color) and clear and cut both to fit inside the rimmed table top frame. This way, I can wipe the entire top when ready to fold and put away, and know that the entire top is protected from scratching, paints, crayons, markers, etc. I intend for this table and chair set to last a lifetime so it can be passed down to future generations. The seats are well made and will be very easy to recover if the time ever arises. Overall, love this set. Very sturdy, safe for little ones, folds compactly, locking hinges on both table and chairs, and decorative enough to leave out. I hated those bulky plastic sets. Highly recommend.

Excellent Youth Table
By cgroyal
from saint louis, mo
This table, and some accompanying folding chairs, makes an excellent choice for us as grand parents: just for play or for Holiday seating.
Perfect Table
By Stacey
from New York, NY
We had been looking for a table for our 2 year old for crafts, snacks etc. This table is perfect - it can be folded, chairs too, when not in use but it is always in use! We move it around the house as needed and older kids 10-12 have visited and have sit down and played games etc comfortably. Glad we picked it because we had been undecided - another good find on onestepahead.com.
Table and chair set is a good value
By Granpa and Grammy
from Baltimore, MD
The table and chair set work great for puzzles, tea parties, and as a separate table for meals for the little ones. The furniture is strong and well made. They just need scratch pads on the bottom of their legs.
By Nurse deb
from North Middletown, Ky
Is very well made. was nicer then I excepted.also bought 2 chairs. was worth extra money compared to other toddler table and chair sets

A popular misconception about the practice of feng shui is that its main focus is wealth creation. Put a water feature here, a windchime there and what's to stop a cheque for thousands of dollars plopping into your mail box? But there are many things more valuable than money and one of them is sleep. A good night's sleep means you are rested and fit to face whatever the next day throws at you. It gives your body time to recover and rebuild and it allows us to have wonderful dreams. It's one of the first things I look at when I'm assessing someone's home. Even if we can't easily change where our home is located, most of us have the ability to create the best bedroom in which to sleep.
A well-placed bed is, I think, one of the most important things to address in the home. So what do we need to do? Just as the best building sits against a protective slope, so a bed is best placed with its head against a solid wall. The movement of chi within the home basically follows a path from door to door and from door to window. These are active areas. A bed placed underneath a window means that the flow of chi coming through the bedroom door moves toward the window meaning the energy over that bed is active. This means disturbed sleep patterns. Whereas a bed with its head set against a solid wall is supported by this quiet mountain-like energy. If your bed has to be under a window, think about installing solid shutters to close the wall down (at least at night) and add a solid headboard. For a child's bedroom this is especially important as they are susceptible to strong currents of chi. But for guest bedrooms, don't worry – it means your guests won't overstay their welcome!
Given that chi moves from door to window, that often means that the bed is positioned directly between a door and the bedroom window. Not much you can do about this but it's more important that the head of the bed is against a wall. Adding bedside tables gives additional support. For couples, try to make sure that the bedside tables and lamps are identical to reflect balance in the relationship. I usually advise people to keep the wall above the bed clear of any artwork as this draws energy over the bed (just as your eye is drawn to the artwork). If you must have artwork on that wall, keep it to the wall above each bedside table instead.
The energy of a bedroom should be quiet. Large windows with big views, busy artwork or artwork with aggressive imagery, and too many mirrors can all disturb this feeling of tranquility. For large windows, think of curtains to frame the view and soften the atmosphere at night. Generally keep artwork to a minimum. For couples it's a good idea to have an image of you both together (and looking happy!). Avoid pictures of the kids or other members of the family as this room is for you and your partner, so claim it. For mirrored wardrobes, try opening them at night and if you find you sleep better then think about replacing them with solid doors or covering them with opaque film. I know someone who draws a thin curtain across her wardrobe mirrors at night, which gives a lovely soft atmosphere to the room as well.
Think about the imagery of your bedroom. This is your private sanctuary and it represents the inner you. Don't overload bedside tables with work-related reading. Put something you find beautiful there instead so that it's a gift to you every time you wake up. It goes without saying that the room shouldn't appear disorderly or cluttered to you.
If you're single and looking for a partner, check whether your bedroom is really set up for one or two people. I often see single people living in bedrooms that have only one bedside table, a small bed and imagery of single people – the whole room screams singleness.
Of course bedrooms aren't all about sleep. Add some spice with a touch of red (a cushion, perhaps) and warm lighting. Think of bringing in different textures – velvets, mohair, even a good fake fur – anything that feels good against bare skin.
The list of do's and dont's for bedrooms goes on but ultimately the main thing to get right is the bed placement. After that, the rest is pure pleasure.
As the Italians say, I wish you golden dreams. (And I promise I'm not talking about money).

Bio and Links
I am a North Londoner of Irish Protestant and Anglo-Indian (or, to be more accurate, Hiberno-Caledonian-Anglo-Dutch-Huguenot-Indian) parentage. I was trained as a mathematician but, at the moment, am working only part-time. I have travelled a lot; not only around the British Isles, but also throughout: Europe; Africa; America (North only; I have yet to cross the Rio Grande, never mind the Panama Canal, although I did, once, venture across the Forty-Ninth Parallel for a month, and should like to go back to Canada again, sometime); Asia; and Australia. Unfortunately, most of those voyages were undertaken before the invention of the digital camera, so I can't show you too many of the graves I saw when I was abroad. When I am not travelling or working, or painting or acting, I am learning to play the piano and various woodwind instruments. I try to keep my body fit with cycling and swimming and karate, as well as by never drinking alcohol, or smoking, or eating meat, and I try to keep my mind fit with chess and crosswords and reading.
Please note; I am forever running around this world (as Jefferson Airplane once sang), and seldom check the computer when I am on my wanderings; but, if you write to me, I shall make sure that I answer on my return.

RE: Mary Jane Taylor Crawford
Thanks again, Iain. It's funny, I had baby Esther's dates in my dad's genealogy file but without a name etc., and you found the stone with name but no dates. Now we finally have it documented...
I have many wonderful childhood memories of visiting my grandfather in Lebanon (he worked at AUB for many years, and only left the country in the late 1970s when he could no longer care for himself). Also of touring in Syria and even Iran with family & relatives. The people were always wonderful to us, and the places were wonderful. I too fear that I may never make it back, given how badly things have turned in the area. Very sad.
Do you have any more information on where that cemetery outside Damascus is located? I've tried to find it on Google Earth from your description & the angle of the sun in your photo, but nothing looks like a good candidate. I don't want to geocode or put the precise location on the cemetery record, but I would like to personally know where it is, should I ever return to the country.

Thank you for transferring Mary Jane Taylor Crawford's memorial! I will take care of that duplicate tonight if I can.
Would you be willing to upload your marker picture for the baby's memorial as well, since she's listed thereon too? Or if you prefer I can download it from Mary and upload it for baby. The baby's memorial is:

Hello Iain, I was out of town for 10 days and came home to this great suprise from this site. Thank you so much for looking up my relatives and photographing the area in that thick forested area where they may lie. Interesting! I hope the next time your out there that you will be able to find Mary's location. My Mother was right, in that they didn't have much money and couldn't imagine what circumstances they would be buried in. She grew up with Mary (her grandmother) living in their home till Mary died. Then WWII started, and all she knew was the cemetery in which she was buried. My Mother's health has been slowly failing this year, so this information and photos have come at a good time before she can't understand anymore. Thank you for your time and continuing efforts!!

RE: Greetings from London!
Thank you so much for the Pitt information and photo. I am so excited to see any info about them.. and could not visualize what you had found.. Thank you so much for looking into this. Their daughter was buried at one cemetery and then moved (supposively) -that is why she has two gravesites. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this, I am very grateful.

Nelson Pictures
Greetings. Through family stories, it is believe that Edmund Nelson & his wife Catherine Suckling Nelson are my 5th Great Uncle & Aunt (Edmund's brother Charles Nelson (1728-1795) is my 6th Great Grandfather). May I use the pictures you have shared for Edmund, Catherine & their son Horatio in my personal family tree files? I will gladly note that they are from: Find A Grave Contributor: Iain MacFarlaine #46514200. These are for my own private use and will not be posted anywhere on the internet by me.
Thank you for such beautiful pictures of the All Saints Churchyard Cemetery & the final resting place of Edmund, Catherine & Horatio.

Whether or not you are traveling locally for a couple of days or you're taking a month-long holiday overseas, any number of unpredictable challenges might happen to delay, interrupt or perhaps terminate your holiday. This is exactly why almost 30 % of American tourists at the moment purchase travellers insurance to provide peace of mind, safeguard against unanticipated complications as well as protect their own monetary investments. Continue reading to learn about the many forms of travel insurance and why they are an essential safeguard for your vacation.
Health Insurance
Probably one of many most terrifying and most demanding events that could occur while traveling is a sudden injury or perhaps illness. Far away from your home, more often than not devoid of the comforts of close friends, family members and also familiar doctors, worries about insurance plan and documents will be the last issues you want to be managing. If you are covered and vacationing in the United States, you'll be protected. Nonetheless, many nations overseas do not acknowledge American health care insurance guidelines, and lots of international hospitals will not likely discharge you until you pay in full. Before your journeys, ask about your policy's acceptance in overseas locations. When concerns remain about insurance coverage, acquire travellers insurance to cover any kind of needed healthcare expenses while you are away. This makes sure that you'll have total, quick access to any kind of needed treatments anywhere you go, and you will not be postponed needlessly by medical bills after the treatment is finished.
Medical Evacuation Insurance Coverage
In the unfortunate occasion that you simply become really sick or seriously injured while touring, you'll want to have prepared accessibility to medical evacuation transportation to get back home or to visit necessary experts, particularly when you are visiting an underdeveloped nation. Most medical evacuation insurance policies consist of treatment within a foreign place until you're secure enough to get flown back to the US, at which point your yearly health care plan will once more encompass your needs.
Flight Insurance
Despite the fact that it remains one of the costliest forms of travellers insurance, flight insurance policies take effect if you are hurt or killed in the plane crash event. Most travelers nowadays opt out of purchasing this sort of a plan, but it should be considered in the event you plan to travel with smaller, global airlines with less than stellar histories of security.
Baggage Insurance Coverage
There's, possibly, nothing that raises the ire of travelers more so than the all too common problem of lost, damaged or delayed luggage. Should you be traveling overseas or on the lengthy domestic trip, it's generally essential to check a minimum of one bag and, with one or maybe more anticipated flight changes, it really is fairly easy for your bags to encounter a hardship or two before getting to the intended destination. In order to be covered for losses incurred in getting or replacing needed items, baggage insurance policy is an excellent safety net. When your bags contain valuable items like jewellery, think about picking a baggage insurance plan that accounts for "excess valuation," which means you will get added coverage toward any missing or broken items.
Trip Termination As Well As Interruption Insurance Policy
Life is filled with surprises and everything from extreme climate conditions to an unexpected emergency appendectomy may cause you to end up being late for the scheduled vacation, or to miss it altogether. If you wish to ensure you can get back costs for flights, accommodations, cruises or other bills you've incurred in arranging your vacation, it is important to buy trip termination and interruption insurance coverage. These convenient travellers insurance plans actually protect you in the event that one or more of your vacation vendors goes out of business. If it is a concern, be sure that you get your insurance plan from a third party seller. If you purchase this from a vacation merchant and the firm goes under, your policy is not likely to be recognized.
Terrorism Insurance Plan
Regrettably, many parts of the entire world face distressing periods and also war-like strife nowadays, including those near common tourist destinations within the European countries as well as the Caribbean. It's impossible to forecast the future, but when elevated criminal news or obvious terrorist activity is normal or anticipated within or near your current vacation destination, an exclusive insurance plan covering terrorism might be in order. A large number of the policies will compensate you in the event you cancel your journey due to terrorist activities, and some may help evacuate you from a hot sector in the event that warfare or even civil trouble erupts when you have already arrived at the intended location.
With countless unknowns, travel insurance coverage is a crucial tool in protecting your wellbeing, your possessions as well as your monetary investments during or before travel. Regardless of whether you've got a particular issue regarding your health, or you're intrigued in generous, all round traveler's protection, this important expenditure can save you time and money, and it may even save your life. Ensure your peace of mind by getting travellers insurance before your next vacation.

About ten years ago, my parents made their final pilgrimage to the Jewish Homeland (south Florida) and sold their house in Long Beach, NY. I went up into Yankee territory (actually, it was more Mets territory than Yankees territory, but that's beside the point) to go through the boxes and boxes of stuff I had stored there. Many of the boxes were filled with old notebooks and the like from high school and college. Just about all of it went in the trash, although I did have fun looking at it before pitching it out. My favorites were the calculus notebooks. There, in my very own handwriting, were pages and pages of numbers and symbols and Greek letters. It may as well have all been in Greek for all I remembered. At some point earlier in my life I was able to take derivatives of things and find the volume of an infinitely large cone and get a number like two. I don't even know what those things are any more, much less how to do them. It really brought home how much I have forgotten from my earlier education.
I can only assume that I am not alone in this. Except what we use in our every day lives (or even once a year or so), those of us over thirty have probably forgotten most of what we could answer correctly on a test in high school. This is the only explanation that makes any sense about the fact that, to my personal observation, 98% of all drivers have completely forgotten everything they learned in driver's ed except for which is the gas and which is the brake. So, as a public service, the following is a quick refresher course in the basic rules and courtesies of driving.
1. That triangular red sign with the word "Yield" on it means that, if you are facing it, you must yield. Yield, in layman's terms, means it ain't your turn, and you must wait until everyone else is out of the way before you go.
2. Those white lines in a parking lot indicate the space in which you are supposed to park your car. You are supposed to park BETWEEN the lines, not on top of them, or all scrunched up on one side so that the person who parks next to you has to suck in her stomach, hold her purse and purchases over her head, and stand on tiptoe to get in or out of her car. And yes, there is a special place in hell for people who park across two spots.
3. Relatedly, spots reserved for "compact cars only" are not appropriate places to park one's SUV or dually truck.
4. Signs that indicate the right lane is going to end in 500 yards do not mean "drive really fast 498 yards in the right lane so that you can squeeze in front of the other cars that politely waited their turn and jam up the traffic further." They mean, "Try to get over as soon as possible." If you don't, you are no better than someone who cuts in line at the grocery store.
5. If you are stopped at a light in the right (or only) lane waiting to go straight, and the lane is wide enough that a car can sneak around you to turn right, you have a very strict moral obligation to stop your car towards the left of your lane and far enough forwards so that people turning right can sneak around you and not have to wait for you.
6. When driving on a highway, the left lane is for people who are going faster than the people in the right lane. If you find yourself in the left lane, and the same car has been right next to you in the right lane, you have an obligation to either speed up a little and get in front of that car in the right lane, or slow down for a second and get behind that car. There is no place for pace cars on the highway to set the speed for everyone else.
7. The blinker is specifically designed to let other people know that you are about to turn or change lanes. If you use it, I promise you that your car will continue to operate in the manner to which you have become accustomed.
8. With the one exception of the situation in which someone is sitting at a red light and looking down when it turns green, never ever in the history of the universe has honking at someone ever made someone think, "Oh my! I have driven in a way that has offended someone! Perhaps I should re-evaluate my choices and drive differently in the future. Thanks, kind sir, for notifying me in this way!"
9. If you are going more than ten miles an hour under the speed limit, and it isn't raining extremely hard or snowing, you might want to consider not driving. Ever.
10. If you are coming to a stop at a light and there is a commercial driveway, a street, or a residential driveway with a running car in it (especially ones with hopeful looking people in them trying to get in the flow of traffic somehow, anyhow) along the roadside, do not cluelessly block these streets and driveways. If you do, the concentrated evil eye given by the person who you blocked in (or the collective evil eye given by the twenty cars that have to stop and wait for the car that is turning left into the CVS that can't get through because you blocked the driveway) might very well cause your head to explode and, well, that would just mean more traffic for the rest of us.
These are only the top ten, of course. I hope you found them helpful. If there are any glaring rules that I left out, please feel to describe them in the comment section below.
10:43 pm on Thursday, February 14, 2013
Very good advice. I have noticed that people here like to drive ten to fifteen miles an hour UNDER the speed limit until they hit a school zone. Then they are tailgating,
speeding and trying to pass in an enraged frenzy.

Allison, I do not notice many snowbirds driving at times of school zones, mostly young local looking people, soccer moms and work trucks. These seem to be the biggest offenders
David Binder
12:45 am on Friday, February 15, 2013
Yes, good advice indeed. Most of which should really be more than suggestions. In my 40 or so years of driving it's sad how much of a decline in common sense & courtesy I see. In the past I spent about 12 years in the local courier business. I finally had to get off the road because I got tired of people painting bullseyes on my truck.

Number 5,,boom you nailed it..it really isn't that hard
Chris Callahan
9:03 am on Friday, February 15, 2013
One more: the presence of a law enforcement officer does not mean that you must immediately slow to 10 MPH under the posted limit. Such slowing does NOT compensate for the fact that 500 yards up the road you were going 15 MPH over the posted limit. It's okay to ease up as a warning to your fellow motorists, but slamming on the brakes doesn't really help. Really.
A Decatur Mom
5:30 pm on Saturday, February 16, 2013
Really? Not that I think it's ok to speed. But I've always figured that if I am going 60 mph in a 50 mph zone at X distance from an unnoticed police car that I notice at X/2 distance from the car, then I slow down to 40 mph for the rest of distance X, the police car's radar will register at 50 mph. No?
Lori Duff
11:11 am on Friday, February 15, 2013
Thanks, all! These are great contributions. Keep 'em coming.....if we get just ONE PERSON to see the error of their ways.....And as if on cue, this morning I was waiting patiently to turn right out of the CVS and a guy came up and blocked me in.
Melissa Page
11:55 am on Friday, February 15, 2013
Here's one...if you see an emergency vehicle (police, fire, EMS) behind you with lights and sirens - PULL TO THE RIGHT! Don't slam on brakes or go left. Don't try to outrun them. Don't hit the turning lane. If you can't get over, slow down and turn on your flashers so they can go around.
Karsten Torch
12:05 pm on Friday, February 15, 2013
I try to just drive with the idea that I am a lone island, but so is everybody else, therefore pay attention to them and don't get in their way. Get out of the left lane, pull up and to the left so people can turn right around you, don't fly through or across parking lots (that last one really bugs me), and if somebody has started to move out of a parking space, let them out and don't hit the horn and expect them to pull back into the space. Pretty simple rules, IMO....
But this one bugs me all the time. Two lanes, coming to a red light. Two cars in the right lane, nobody on the left. As I come up, the one in the back will undoubtedly hit the left lane so they are first for the light, and when the light changes - THEY DON'T GO!!! Why the hell did you switch lanes if you weren't going to go faster than the car you went around?????
I just think it should be harder to get a license in this country. You can be a blind retarded quadriplegic and still pass the driving test. And if you for some reason are incapable of passing the test, just keep trying until you can. If it takes you 7 tries, no problem. We'll give you the ability to pilot 4000 pounds of steel and aluminum at 70 mph. Sheesh....

I've just uploaded a 'sharp turn' sign. I turn my signal light on for those signs. I don't know why, just a habit. Does anyone else do that?

@Amy - Yep, force of habit when I am about to turn! :-)

I was in a far right interstate lane on a rainy, very low-visibility, dark morning. An SUV was tailgating me while flashing his/her brights. I suppose that flashing the brights in this situation means requesting me to speed up or for me to get into the lanes where drivers enjoy driving even faster. After 30 seconds, the SUV operator flew into the highway's middle lane. Note to driver: do not tailgate and do not speed on a cold, dark rainy morning. I have seen drivers do highway spin-outs way too many times on these roads. I've also witnessed drivers outrunning trains as well as rescue squads -- all true stories.
5:17 pm on Saturday, February 16, 2013
Despite the texting laws, I see people doing it every day on my one hour commute home from work. I see people reading books that they have placed on their steering wheels while going 75 down Hwy. 78. One woman was actually looking at the pictures in the "Fifty Shades of Gray" book.....Do I mistakes, yes, I did once.....but it wasn't intentional.....I mean I don't think it was intentional....errr...never mind
7:55 pm on Sunday, February 17, 2013
One more comment about turn signals. You don't use your turn signal AS you're changing lanes or AT the corner where you're going to turn...the whole point of a turn signal is to signal your intention WAY BEFORE you change lanes or turn at the corner. It allows everyone to either LET you change lanes or brace themselves for your turn. Turn the signal on way before you're going to do what you're going to do.
Stacy Fox
8:29 am on Monday, February 18, 2013
Sorry, but you're wrong about #4! I agree it doesn't mean to speed up/drive really fast until the lane ends, but a "Lane Ends" sign does NOT mean to merge as soon as possible. It is an alert that the lane will be ending, but you USE THAT LANE until it does. There is nothing more frustrating than people who stop at Yard 2 of said 500 Yards, causing a jam behind them because they're trying to merge over long before is necessary. The road is there to be used, afterall. Drive cautiously and slow down if necessary, but merge when the roads do, not before.
Lori Duff
10:43 am on Tuesday, February 19, 2013
This is interesting, because it was actually a rant on Facebook on this very point that inspired me, and then before I posted it another friend ranted about the same thing, I agree with you, that you shouldn't stop at yard 2 and cause a jam -- I'm not saying that at all. Just don't speed up so you can get in front of everyone. Get over when you can means when you can -- stopping at yard 2 to make your way in is not when you can.
Karsten Torch
7:38 pm on Monday, February 18, 2013
Decatur Mom - no. If they hit you with radar, it's instantaneous. No averages. Jamming on the brakes will do nothing more than get you rear ended. Or honked at, at the very least....
Good Grief Y'all
10:04 am on Tuesday, February 19, 2013
Lori, your take on the subject is funny but sadly real. It's too bad common sense isn't more common.
Brian Crowe
10:00 am on Wednesday, February 20, 2013
The advent of the ubiquitous cellphone has made for much worse driving behavior. Those who claim the bans on texting while driving are unenforceable must never look to their right or left. I could easily write a dozen tickets a day if I had such power.
