"Trane Furnace"
I hate this furnace, Trane Company and the authorized supplier in Northern ca- Speciality . The furnace is two years old. During this time the inducer motor has needed repairs and replacement. Speciality Company in Benecia Ca is a horrible company to have to deal with. I have been without heat since 2/3/09. It is now 2/18/09 and I am still waiting for Speciality to mail out the inducer motor to the furnace company so I can get heat back in my house. They are the only company in CA that sells Trane Supplies so if you live in Northern CA and have a Trane heater, you may be forced to deal with this company. Given that my brand new heater (now 24 months old) has needed the motor serviced and replaced I would recommend that you never buy a Trane Product

"Home owner"
I have had my trane furnace for 10 years and would not recommend someone to buy one. I installed a York in my last house and had good results, decided to put a trane in my next house and have been putting new circuit boards in every other year. It's bad enough with high fuel prices then you have to pay repairmen and parts it kills you. It's one thing if the company stood behind them if they have repeated problems but they don'T. Don't buy a trane.

"XV90 - Flawed logic"
I just purchased a builder's model home that has a Trane xv90 (hybrid gas/electric) model, which is supposed to be super energy-efficient. I called the installer to come and put in a programmable thermostat for me so that I could have the house cool down for sleeping and while I am at work; and warm up for when I am awake/and for weekends. They said that it is not recommended that you use a programmable thermostat with the xv90, but they couldn't tell me why. I then called Trane, who couldn't really explain it to me either. I posed the question as to whether it would harm the unit if I used a programmable thermostat or if there was some other reason. Apparently it was some other reason, and that reason being energy efficiency. Well, to heck with that - I need to be comfortable so that I can sleep! The guy at Trane told me that the furnace is designed to run at 73 degrees f - constantly. This is way too warm for me for nighttime. He said that lowering the temperature by more than one degree may create conditions where it would never be able to warm the house up again until the weather got warmer. What the heck? If this thing ever dies I will replace it with a standard model. My programmable thermostat will more than make up the difference in energy consumption. Good grief! Aside from that, the unit does run quietly most of the time. I can hear it running (it's in the basement) only when I am in the room directly above it. It generates a nice amount of heat. So, if you are going to keep the thermostat at the same temperature for 24/7, then this model is acceptable.

"Trane quality"
I have replaced the igniter on my xe80 furnace twice since owning it. The first one lasted only 2 years. Second one lasted 4 years. So far no need to replace the last one. Overall, am satisfied.

"Humidity Off"
New Home: Purchased a Trane 100,000 btu 92% Two Stage furnace model tux2c100a9482a, the humidity when it was turned on created a humidity level of 27%(which started to pull all the wood appart). We added a top of the line automatic humidifier that generates an average humidity of 34%. I have to run a portable unit to get the humidity to get the humidty up. Still looking for the answere of why the humidity is low after many calls to Andy's Statewide Installers.

"flow through humidifier"
Entire heating system from Trane installed 5 weeks ago. After first day I had to turn the water off to the humidifier after it flooded my basement. Researching has revielled this type of humidifier wastes a lot of water. 25 - 30 gallons per day in my case. My drainage is septic system therefore I am not willing to over saturate my property and waste that much water at the cost of this type of humidifier. I was not advised this when it was sold to me. Trane and the contractor dance circles around the issue. They have even advised me to install a different type of humidifier, one that they do not sell. I also cannot get the humidity in the house above 30%. Trane suggested to have the humistat set at 25%. What is the use in having the humidifier?

"2008 Trane"
I am happy with the overall heating and efficiency. The unit is fairly loud, but the furnace is located in my hallway Furnace closet. After about two weeks of operation in the summer the blower motor went out (Emerson motor, no grease was put in the bearings), the contractor replaced it within 2 days.

"Poor Quality/No Support"
Constant repair for this furnace. 3 blower motors, 2 transformers, 4 exterior thermostats(finally just removed), replaced orifices, switches, and on and on. Found a pinched wire installers had ran between duct work and floor joist...plenty of room on either side of the joist....?? No help from the company that installed...only another bill. We are again without heat this morning...it is the last week of December after all...expected :) We now understand the logo..."Can't stop a Trane"...because you can't get one to start :)

"New Trane Furnace/Humidifier will not work"
I have a new Trane xr-80 gas Furnace and Humidifier installed July '08. Did not turn on until October. The thermostat is set on #5, which should provide 45% humidity. It will not go above 30%. The dealer's service Tec's have been here three times. The last time the rewired the Humidifier so that it would run when the fan only was on and advised to run continuously. I ran for 12 hours and the drain line was outputting 4 gallons per hour, the humidity remained at 30%.The tech verified that my humidity gauge was correct!

"Not impressed, but lots of potential"
All I can say is that I hope the new owners remodel/clean up. It took a full minute of holding down the handle for the toilet to flush, it took 10 minutes to get hot water to the shower the first time we used it, the heat/ac unit did not work and the window did not open, so it was very warm in our room. Plus, there was a little field mouse in our room […] the first night. The ceiling tiles were rotting in the hallways and our room had a musty smell. This looks like a place that used to be "grand" but has been left to rot. I can say the breakfast was really delicious with a wide variety of food. This hotel has tons of potential, I just hope the new owners embrace it and make it a really great place to stay. Další informaceAutentické hodnocení od zákazníka Hotels.com
The hotel is Not handicap accessible and I had to carry very heavy luggage up stairs.The rooms are hit or miss. I've stayed in multiple rooms at this hotel over the past month, and that's where I stand. The staff is kins, polite and helpful, its some of the rooms' conditions that's the problem. Some of the ceiling tile squares would just fly out of […] place when the door is open, the plumbing in the shower didn't drain properly at all in one of my rooms. The remote just stopped working in another. There was a nail clipping on one of my towels when I took it off the bathroom towel rack, and some of the towels were stained and/or raggy looking. Stuff like that. The rate was so low on-line and the people were very kind so I stayed for the length of my time in New York. I probably Won't return.

"Needs repairs"
I go to this hotel because it's convenient and the rates are reasonable. But the hotel is in serious need of some repairs. There are water leaks in the hallway that have ruined the ceiling and carpeting, and the rooms are always very cold when you walk (in in the winter). Both the heat and the hot water take forever to come up. But, the rooms are clean […] and the bed is comfortable, so for what I need, it suffices. I've never tried their breakfast, so I can't comment on that. Typically, I've only dealt with the front-desk staff, and they've always been pleasant and courteous. I'm very familiar with this area, so I know this building has been around for many, many years and it's been owned by several different hotel chains. It's in a good location, convenient to everything, easy to get to...if the present owners would put some money into sprucing it up and making the needed repairs, I think they would draw more guests and garner higher ratings.

"Hotel in terrible condition"
The hotel is currently in terrible condition (April 2013). Water damaged ceilings, water damaged carpets, freezing cold hallways..our short visit was a damp, dank, depressing experience. We were booked for five nights but did not even stay one. I was embarrassed to have brought my wife there, and we are not particularly picky! this hotel has some serious […] issues that need to be addressed. I did get a full refund from hotels.com so that is good, but this hotel should NOT have a three star rating. BEWARE!!!!! Další informaceAutentické hodnocení od zákazníka Hotels.com

"Very disappointed"
The hotel itself wasn't horrible, but far from great. Our room was never cleaned the first day and there were only two other people staying there so there was no excuse. We were told the cleaning staff was there and we requested cleaning at 9:30am when they arrive. We were out of the room all morning and most if the afternoon and came back to a unclean […] room. The free breakfast the 2nd day was leftover from day 1 and no bread. The evening restaurant menu was great but then had very few choices because most of the items weren't available. It just wasn't what they advertise it to be. It has great potential with the right management. Další informaceAutentické hodnocení od zákazníka Hotels.com
Hotel chosen because was listed as "Pet Frindly" On check in they seemed surprised that we had our small dog and told us whenever we left room he needeed to accompany us. Reservation also confirmed a king size bed but were told we had to take two double beds because they had no king size bed rooms for people with pets. Breakfast was good and everything […] else in order but was decidedly not pet friendly place Další informaceAutentické hodnocení od zákazníka Hotels.com
"Decent hotel"
This is a reasonably nice hotel. Although some of the fixtures in the bathroom look like they could use an update and it takes forever for the water to heat up, our room was generally comfortable and clean. I was a bit surprised that there was no top sheet on the bed, just the comforter/duvet that serves as the bedspread. Since cleanliness in a room […] is my number one priority, I found this a little disturbing since I can't help but wonder whether they change/wash this bedspread every time they clean the room. Maybe I'm just a germaphobe, but when I get into a hotel bed, I don't want anything touching me that touched the previous occupant(s) of the room. I will note that they gave me the same exact room as my stay a month ago and during that visit, I saw a small brown stain on that bedspread, and it wasn't there on this visit, so maybe they do change/wash the covers with each room cleaning, but I would still prefer a top sheet be added.

"Not bad for a quick stay"
The hotel has nice decor and the room was generally ok, although there was small brown stain on the white duvet on the bed that made me wonder "what is THAT?" Fortunately, the sheets appeared to be clean. The room was quite cold when we entered, and it took awhile to warm up--the heating unit didn't seem to blow very hot air, even though we turned it […] all the way up. That kept the floor/carpeting feeling cold--so cold, I actually thought it was damp. We left for about an hour and a half, and it felt comfortably warm by the time we returned. Also, it took forever for the hot water to finally come out of the faucets--it was icy cold for several minutes, to the point where we almost called the front desk because we thought there was something wrong with it. The front desk person wasn't overly friendly, but she got us checked in without issue. She also accommodated our request to check in early, which was very nice. I can't comment on the included breakfast as I didn't eat there. The rate was reasonable. Overall, it's an ok hotel, not as nice as some others in the area, but not bad.

"Never again"
Had to wait 5 minutes for the desk clerk to finish a phone call when I was checking in. There was a dirty already used damp wash cloth on the desk of the room. The fridge was not only loud but the paint was chipping off all over the outside and the inside looked equally unsanitary. The faucet/heat regulator thing on the tub was separating into three […] different components so hard to use. There was no fitness center and the one down the street we were supposed to have access to was no longer in business. The halls of the hotel looked like they had not been vacuumed for days - bits of paper, food and dirt very evident. On the plus side, the bed was comfy and the room was quiet. And, it was affordable.

It was nice to have ceramic coffee cups in the room, but they both had encrusted coffee stuck to the bottom of the cups and the toilet would only flush completely if you did it 3 or more times. The room was drab and old fashion. The heater worked well and the shower was nice and the bathroom was clean. The hotel in general was deteriorating. The hot […] breakfast was good and the breakfast staff very good and attentive. Front desk staff not too friendly and did not ask how our stay was.

"Not what is pictured!!!!"
Let me first say, that this is only my second review of a hotel. And not all reviews are negative. I recently stayed at a hotel Maryland and was beyond satisfied. However, I was not at all satisfied with my stay at this hotel. After entering, there was a musty,mildewy smell in the air. The decor was quite old, and so was the dust on them. The first […] room we were given had a bad, musty odor.....verging on mildewish. The air conditioner made a grinding noise and was loud. We were given another room, and the odor, musty smell was there too. Upon leaving for the afternoon, you could see that they recently had a flood on the first floor. The rug was stained and they had air fresheners plugged into the wall. The overall feel of the hotel was scary, smelly and not at all worth the price they were asking. Our 2-night stay, turned into a 1-night stay. Honestly, avoid this hotel if you can. Also, the surrounding area didn't look entirely safe. Don't walk alone. Also, the hotel bar....served one, the bartender doing her crossword puzzle. Další informaceAutentické hodnocení od zákazníka Hotels.com
"If no better options, this place will make do"
The beds are really uncomfortable and the shower has a mind of its own when it comes to temperature, it switches from normal temperatures to super hot and cold. The staff did not seem particularly friendly, but one maid we spoke to was nice. The decor is nothing to write home about either. On the bright side, there was nothing particularly alarming […] about the place. So if there are limited options available or you are trying to save some money (though still overpriced for what it is), this place will serve, but this is not a place to stay if you want something nice.

The carpet and bedspreads were very dated, and the room didn't feel very clean. The tub was stained and the bathroom sink leaked all over the floor.

The fridge did not even cool for us to use, so we just kept […] our items in our travel cooler. The staff just placed the microwave right on the carpet floor so that was not too appealing to use.

"very happy with this hotel"
I am a light sleeper -- the rooms in the back look over a lake -- absolutely quiet, though now that I have stayed there I can see the noise in the front wasn't much at all. I had called in advance and asked if they could hold a room on the quietest side of their hotel. I know from experience that is a 'request' that hotels say they will do their best […] to honor, but can't guarantee. But they DID block off a room for me in the back. I overslept an hour past checkout on Sunday (DND on my door) and they didn't bang on the door to get me out -- they let me sleep, which was kind of them because I really needed it. Both nights I got in very late (am a musician) and the front desk clerk was very nice. Yes, I'd stay here again in a heartbeat. Also lots of feather pillows. Very comfortable.

Why did Justin Upton veto a trade to the Seattle Mariners?
Originally published: Jan 11, 2013 - 8:45 pm
After three long offseasons of persisting trade rumors, the question has to be asked: Why would Upton veto a trade that would have finally sent him out of town?
1. Rain
On average, Seattle has more than 150 days of precipitation per year. The Emerald city also averages 35.9 inches of rain per year. Phoenix by comparison has less than a month of precipitation days per year and 7.8 inches of rain.
2. Safeco Field
Without question, Safeco Field is a beautiful place to take in a ball game. With that said, the 54,000-seat stadium is by no means a hitter's park. According to ESPN.com, since the stadium opened in 2000, the Mariners have scored the fewest runs and have the worst batting average of any American League team during that span.
In 2012, Safeco Field averaged just 1.43 home runs per game. By comparison, Chase Field had 2.15 fly out of the yard per game (58 more over the course of the season).
3. Home/road splits
During his five-year MLB career, Upton has taken full advantage of Chase Field's hitter-friendly dimensions.
Over the past three seasons, Upton has batted .253 with 26 home runs and 93 RBI away from Chase field. However at home, the former No. 1 overall pick is considerably better, batting .311 with 39 home runs and 131 RBI. His OPS is also .189 higher in games played in the Valley.
And there's this reason, provided by Arizona Sports 620's Paul Calvisi on Friday:
Would a player veto a trade to SEA because he's building a house? Sources tell me Justin Upton is in middle of building a dream house in PV
— Paul Calvisi (@PaulCalvisi) January 12, 2013
Either way, Upton remains a D-back for now. Whether that's still true heading into spring training, well, that remains to be seen.

Home » KidsHealth
Kids who wear glasses may be eager to switch to contact lenses, but usually they're not recommended for kids younger than 12. The reason is that contacts are small, delicate items that must be properly inserted in the eye and removed as directed. Contact lenses must be cleaned and properly cared for.
By the time most kids are 12, they will be ready to handle this extra responsibility. Some contact lenses are disposable after one use and this may be an option for younger kids who want contacts. But if a kid prefers to keep things simple and wear only glasses, that's fine, too.

Cape Town's street art – a gallery for all
Every day I pass a large mural on a dilapidated building on Albert Road in Woodstock. It is a painting of two Zimbabwean men, Juma and Willard, with the quote, "Inspire ourselves to inspire each other." I read this message every day and in return, it inspires me. Street art is for everyone without the pretence of a gallery – it belongs to everyone and no one.

Who knocked on Coleridge's door and made him lose his train of thought while writing Kubla Khan? That was John Mayer, bein' a douche. Why are Johnny, Joey and Dee Dee dead? The universe just couldn't bring itself to force them to live on the same planet as a douche like John Mayer. Will the circle be unbroken? No, John Meyer is going to come along and break it just cuz he's a douche.

Adrenal crisis is a life-threatening condition. The anterior pituitary gland does not make enough adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). ACTH is responsible for regulating the adrenal gland. The adrenal gland makes hormones that regulate many important bodily functions.
Adrenal crisis is very serious. People with adrenal crisis require immediate treatment.
Adrenal crisis may be caused by:
- Rapid withdrawal from steroid therapy
- Sepsis (bloodstream infection)
- Surgical stress
- Adrenal apoplexy—bleeding into the adrenal glands
- Pituitary necrosis (damage to pituitary tissue)
- Thyroid hormone replacement in someone with adrenal insufficiency
Risk Factors
Factors that increase your chances of developing adrenal crisis include:
- Septic shock
- Adrenal insufficiency
- Use of steroid medications
Adrenal Crisis may cause:
- Weakness
- Feeling tired all the time
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Loss of appetite
- Weight loss
- Low blood pressure
- Abdominal pain
- Fever
- Confusion or coma
- Diarrhea
- Bluish skin color
- Dehydration
- Shock
If you suspect an adrenal crisis, seek medical care immediately.
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. Blood tests will be done to:
- Measure hormone levels (ACTH, cortisol)
- Examine red blood cells
- Measure glucose electrolytes levels
- Look for autoimmune or endocrine disorders
Images of the glands or other structures may be needed. They may be taken with:
An ACTH stimulation test may be done. This test measures ACTH after stimulation. It will help to confirm the diagnosis of adrenal insufficiency.
Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Treatment options include the following:
Fluid Replacement
Almost all patients with adrenal crisis are dehydrated. Large amount of fluids containing sodium and sugar will be needed.
Steroid and antibiotic medications are needed in an adrenal crisis. If you are vomiting or unconscious, these medications will be given by injection or through an IV.
To help reduce your chances of having adrenal crisis, take the following steps:
- See your doctor if you are always tired, feel weak, or have had unexplained weight loss. Your doctor can test for a shortage of adrenal hormones. Early treatment may prevent a crisis.
- If you take hydrocortisone, prednisone, or dexamethasone, learn how to increase your dose if you become ill.
- If you have adrenal gland problems and become ill (eg, nausea, vomiting), seek emergency medical care immediately.
- If you have adrenal gland problems, make sure you have a dexamethasone injection with you at all times. Ensure that you and those around you know how to give the injection.
- If you have adrenal insufficiency, carry a medical ID card. Wear a bracelet that tells emergency workers about your problem.

Pidgin protocols plugin for Conversations and Contacts v0.7
Votes: 60
Free & Open Source license
AIM, GaduGadu, Groupwise, ICQ, MSN, QQ, Sametime & Yahoo
A plugin for configuring accounts supported by libpurple, the same library Pidgin uses. The plugin adds support for the following protocols: AIM, GaduGadu, ICQ, MSN, QQ, Sametime, and Yahoo.
Authors | Jonny Lamb, Jon Zhang |
One of those plug-ins that you forget you installed.
This works great. I used ICQ, Yahoo and MSN Haze through this plugin initially, but have since disabled ICQ as I no longer need it, and have replaced MSN Haze with MSN Pecan
I am currently running this plugin alongside Skype, Facebook (Jabber), Gtalk and MSN Pecan with no problems.
Facebook IM contacts cannot be merged with existing contacts. :-/
Tried the Facebook and MSN plugins. Otherwise they work fine, but IM contacts cannot be merged with existing contacts. (They will reappear after merging.) This is extremely annoying. Now I'm using MSN Pecan instead.
AIM and MSN work, but for ICQ and Yahoo I cannot create an account. I have filed a bug here:
Does anyone know if the issue is solved in the version in extras-testing (0.8)?
Is this plugin still being maintained? I filed bug like over a week ago https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26330 and I am yet to get a response from the maintainers. Bugzilla is not the easiest of tools to use, and when a user takes his time to report a bug the least thing the developer can do is take a look at the report and get back to the user (fixed, wont fix, pending, incomplete, invalid anything) so the user knows that at least someone listened. I filed the same bug against the msn-pecan plugin (which uses the same library as this plugin) The maintainer not only got back to me, he accepted the bug, tagged it high and got it fixed in less than a week of filling. Am not expecting the same speed from this app but at least acknowledge that my effort was not in vain. Maybe all you guys want to hear is positive feedbacks? In anycase if you dont attend to bug reports perhaps you should take out the "Report a bug against this application. " link so users can safe their time cheer leading
Connected up with MSN and works a treat. Tried Yahoo but nothing happened after trying to sign in (at account setup).
Phonebook and messaging integration in Maemo is definitely a killer! This really makes N900 a converged product.
I don't know why this site is claiming it can do Facebook chat, only 0.8 can do that. I cannot remove the mentioning of Facebook either, which sucks.
If you want FB chat in extras faster, vote for it here: http://maemo.org/packages/package_instance/view/fremantle_extras-testing_free_armel/account-plugin-haze/0.8/
I'm using Sametime but it's not integrated into existing contacts. The sametime contacts are empty (not even a sametime entry) and because of this they are sorted to the top of the contacts list alphabetically (since they don't have a name). If the sametime account could be an entry in the normal contacts (like gtalk, sip, etc is) it would be more user-friendly...
I have the FB account option. I'm trying right now as I type this to set it up. It doesn't look like it's trying to log in though. No deny, or login. Just sits there. It still needs some work.
I seem to have everything listed as an option expcept Facebook (the only reason I installed this, lol). What gives?
hey! where is facebook?! the only protocol I was waiting for :(
I don't have the facebook chat option, which I had with the v0.8 in extras-testing :( I rebooted but nothing
works fine :-)
1 bug to fix:
Enable the option to connect from more then one account with MSN protocol.
Any chance the pluggin would support network proxy. Libpurple has good proxy support so that shouldnt be impossible to implement. Already msn-pecan plugin for conversation gained which also uses libpurple now has proxy support.
Very Cool! Now i have my msn contacts integrated with my phone contacts! Ty!
Very Cool! Know i have my msn contacts integrated with my phone contacts! Ty!
I am unable to get this to work. I go to settings -> VoIP andIM accounts -> New and see no other options than the default ones.

PDT Staff Writer
"We were on the farm. We had been to church on Sunday morning," Bob Estepp said as he reminisced. "And they came down to our place because we had basketball, softball, baseball, football, you name it. We were playing touch football when my brother came out of the house and said the (Japanese) had attacked Pearl Harbor." That began the military career of just one of four South Webster veterans of World War II who get together from time to time to share their common experience.
In addition to Estepp, 88; Art Lewis, 88; Ray Mullen, 87; and Ray Kemper, 87, sat down for lunch last week at The Party Room on Ohio 140 and opened up about their proud South Webster heritage and what it was like to be part of what Tom Brokaw has dubbed "the Greatest Generation." All either enlisted or were drafted into military service for their country.
"I said, 'Where is Pearl Harbor,'" Estepp continued. "We had never heard of Pearl Harbor. That's how we found out the Japanese had attacked."
Like many young American men, it was that message that launched their military service. Each graduated from South Webster High School in 1942, and Estepp and Lewis were actually attending Rio Grande College at the time. Estepp went into the U.S. Navy, where he was subsequently commissioned in 1944. Lewis was drafted into the U.S. Army in February 1943 and went to Ft. Belvoir, Virginia. Mullen entered the Army and was stationed at Camp Hood, Texas, while Kemper was sent to Paris Island as a Marine.
"I went to Pearl Harbor. From Pearl Harbor to Guam, and then to the invasion of Iwo Jima," Estepp said.
Shortly before 2 a.m. on Feb. 19, 1945, the Navy's big guns opened up on Iwo Jima, signaling the beginning of D-Day. After an hour of punishment, the fire was lifted, leaving the island smoking as if it were on fire. Both Americans aboard their transports and the Japanese in their caves looked to the skies. One-hundred-ten bombers screamed out of the sky to drop more bombs. After the planes left, the big guns of the Navy opened up again. At 8:30am, the order, "Land the Landing Force," sent in the first wave of Marines. Once ashore, the Marines were bedeviled by the loose volcanic ash. Unable to dig foxholes, they were sitting ducks for the hidden Japanese gunners. The U.S. eventually won the battle, but at a high cost in lives.
From Iwo Jima, Estepp went to Saipan in June 1945. "We were waiting for the invasion of Japan, which never occurred," Estepp said. "We were at Saipan and they sent six of us back to Iwo Jima. I was the skipper of an LCT (Landing Craft Tank). I had 10 enlisted personnel and I was the oldest guy at 20. We were up to Iwo Jima until they decommissioned us and I got back to the States probably in March or April of 1946.
Lewis went overseas to England and was in Southampton on June 6, 1944. After the U.S., British and other Allies landed on the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944, they began the Liberation of Western Europe. He ended up in Normandy, Belgium, Holland and Germany, and remembers, "I was in Germany when the war was over."
Mullen has emotional memories of the invasion of Omaha Beach.
"The 741st Tank Battalion was supposed to float in like an infantry boat," Mullen said. "And the waves were so rough they sank. Our people had told them it wouldn't work. (Gen. Dwight) Eisenhower bought into it. So they didn't make it and we were supposed to be third and we became first. We were in the first American tanks on Omaha Beach. I actually drove a supply truck so we trailed behind. After the tanks got up on top of the cliff, that's when we went up."
He saw action at St. Lo, Normandy, with the 1st Infantry Division. There, Mullen saw something he will never forget.
"I saw American bombers bomb their own men," Mullen said. "I could see the bomb bay doors open and the bombs coming down. And they just kept coming and kept coming. They don't tell that story too much. It was supposed to be pinpoint bombing."
Mullen went on to meet the Russians at the Elbe River on April 25, 1945
"I was headed for Borneo and we were all ready to go when they dropped 'the bomb,'" Mullen said about the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima, Japan, which led to the end of the war.
Ray Kemper, a radio gunner with the U.S. Marines, remembers going up into China at the end of the war to get Japanese prisoners, and he remembers their demeanor after they had been defeated. "Those Japanese guys were just as meek as could be," Kemper said. "All they wanted to do was go home, just like us. We even gave them weapons to guard the ammo. They were really loyal to us because they just wanted to get out. There were 300,000 of them."
That was not the end of the action for Kemper or Estepp.
"In 1950, I went back in during the Korean War," Kemper said.
Eventually, he was sent to Portsmouth to open a recruiting office.
Three of the four, Estepp, Lewis and Mullen, all went back to college and got master's degrees — Estepp and Lewis from Marshall University, and Mullen from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville. They all went into education, where they were teachers and administrators. Kemper worked for several companies, even owning his own company, the Ray-Bob Bargain Center in Wheelersburg. For a number of years, as he moved around the country, he remained in the Reserves.
All four said they were proud of their military service, and that it was the springboard for their careers. One more thread runs through them all. Estepp lives at Rosemount, Lewis in Lucasville, Kemper in Sciotoville, and Mullen, South Webster. While Mullen is the only one who remains in South Webster, each believes the type of upbringing they experienced in that community prepared them for their military as well as their civilian lives. Jeeps they were then and Jeeps they remain in their hearts today.

Aviation authorities around the world ordered airlines to stop flying their Boeing 787 Dreamliners over fire risk associated with battery failures aboard the highly touted aircraft.
Groundings that extended globally on Thursday stemmed from a U.S. Federal Aviation Administration directive on Wednesday night that planes should not fly until the problems are resolved.
The action resulted from recent mechanical and other glitches culminating with a severe battery related fire aboard an empty Dreamliner in Boston 10 days ago and an emergency landing in Japan this week prompted by an alarm indicating smoke in an electrical compartment.
"The battery failures resulted in release of flammable electrolytes, heat damage, and smoke on two Model 787 airplanes," the FAA said in a statement.
"The root cause of these failures is currently under investigation. These conditions, if not corrected, could result in damage to critical systems and structures, and the potential for fire in the electrical compartment," the FAA said.
In all, authorities in Europe, Japan and India have grounded the planes while the battery problem is investigated. Carriers in Chile and Ethiopia also set down their 787s until further notice.
United Airlines is the only U.S. carrier to operate the Dreamliner. The carrier said it would work with the FAA on its directive. It inspected its fleet of six 787s after the Boston fire.
The marquee and technologically advanced 787 is widely viewed as crucial to the future of the world's biggest aircraft manufacturer.
The Dreamliner order book is very strong even though the plane had years of embarrassing setbacks and cost overruns during development.
The first commercial Dreamliner flight took off in October 2011, flying from Tokyo to Hong Kong, and the planes flew without major problems for months.

Current Exhibits
"Family Album"Photographs of Pierre Tartoue
Through July 2013Pierre Tartoue (1885-1976) was born in the harbor town of Saint-Nazaire on the western shores of France, and in his lifetime made his way across most of the continental United States. From the late 1930s to early 1950s he spent most of his time in Oklahoma painting and producing photographs that witnessed tremendous renaissance in American Indian communities, including the emergence of large intertribal expositions and powwows.
Tartoue photographed events such as the Anadarko Indian Exposition with the idea that he would somehow capture the essence of a "vanishing race." This was a popular idea among many of his contemporaries, such as Edward Curtis. Yet, the project as Tartoue envisioned was doomed from the start. What he produced was a family album of sorts. His photographs observe young mothers with their newborns, grandparents sharing their culture with the new generation, and watch many of these children grow up and take on leadership within their tribes and intertribal communities. Their vibrant energy tells a story of survival and triumph in the dark shadow of the Great Depression and World War II. These images remind future generations of not only how far we have come, but how to have strength and resilience to keep moving forward.
This exhibit features 25 contemporary silver gelatin prints from original Pierre Tartoue negatives from the Oklahoma Historical Society Research Division photo archives. Please note this exhibit is on display in the Chesapeake Event Center; this room is also used for meetings and special events. Visitors are encouraged to call in advance to confirm the room will be open to the public on the day of their visit.
Reigns Supreme: The Little Black Dress
With the introduction of the little black dress by Coco Chanel in 1926, women have turned to this fashion staple ever since.

Crumbo Spirit Talk
"Half of my life passed in striving to complete the pictorial record of Indian history." -Woody Crumbo
"Crumbo Spirit Talk," a new exhibit featuring the art of Woody Crumbo and his children is now on exhibit at the Oklahoma History Center.
Crumbo was born January 31, 1912, on his mother's allotment near Lexington, Oklahoma. A Citizen Potawatomi tribal member, he dedicated his life and talent to the sincere portrayal of American Indian thought and culture through his art. His prolific work included major advances in oil, silkscreen, tempera, pencil and watercolor. Crumbo's career spanned nearly six decades and his paintings are found in numerous museums and private collections around the world including that of the Queen of England.
Crumbo's legacy was realized in the continuing artwork of his daughter, Minisa Crumbo Halsey, and son, Woody Max Crumbo. Minisa Crumbo Halsey is a talented artist whose work has been shown throughout Europe and the Russian Federation. This exhibit features a retrospective of her work from the 1970s and 1980s. Woody Max Crumbo is a gifted silversmith; the exhibit also features several of his pieces including a concho belt and gorget necklace. The legacy of Woody Crumbo's art continues to impact current and future generations.
The exhibit will run from June 28, 2012 thru the end of 2013. It is located in the E. L. & Thelma Gaylord Special Exhibits Gallery on the first floor of the Oklahoma History Center. The exhibit is co-sponsored by Minisa Crumbo Halsey and the Oklahoma Historical Society. For more information please contact Tara Damron at (405) 522-0784 or by email at email@example.com.

Oklahoma & The Day That Will Live In Infamy
December 7 of 2011 was a pivotal anniversary. It was the 70th anniversary of when the United States entered into World War II with the simultaneous attacks on Wake Island, Guam, the Philippines, & Hawaii.
Why is it a "pivotal" anniversary? This current generation will bridge the gap between the living veterans of these events and the literal memory of what happened to these men and women. Or...the literal memory of what they experienced.
Although there were not any Japanese planes that attacked the state of Oklahoma, many Oklahomans experienced the devastation those planes unleashed on that part of the world. We want to tell these important stories so that succeeding generations will remember tyranny and its effects in the hope that it will not be repeated.
This exhibit is currently on display in the Sam Noble gallery.
Caddo Leadership and Community
Within the OneOK Gallery of the Oklahoma History Center there is an area set aside to provide exhibit space for each tribe to interpret their own history to the public. Each of these small venues is a cooperative effort between the tribe and the Oklahoma Museum of History. The initial tribes featured in this area were the Pawnee, Osage, Choctaw, and Kiowa peoples. In 2008 the Chickasaw Nation replaced the Kiowa Tribe in this area.
This exhibit is the end result of a year-long cooperative effort between the Caddo Nation Museum and the Oklahoma Museum of History. The Caddo Nation Museum provided the interpretation, graphics, design ideas, and artifacts for the area. The staff of the Oklahoma Museum of History provided tools, material, and technical expertise for the installation and creation of graphic panels.
The title of the exhibit is "Caddo Leadership and Community." Within this exhibit visitors will be presented with information regarding Caddo history, the Caddo Turkey Dance, and artifacts from their traditional homelands. These artifacts are a core piece of the interpretation of the geographic expanse that the Caddo confederacy once covered. These are a pot from Craig Mound at Spiro, two chert points from a village site in Louisiana, a pipe from Battle Mound in Arkansas, and a replica of a shell gorget from a village site in Texas. The original Texas gorget is too fragile to move from its current storage location. Also on display is a cast replica of an effigy pipe from Spiro Mounds. This pipe, commonly referred to as 'Big Boy' or the 'Resting Warrior', features the carved figure of a kneeling man wearing heads for earrings.

A NYC weekend
On Saturday, we rode bikes across the Brooklyn Bridge (this was the view from my bike seat!)...
We headed to the glorious Brooklyn Bridge Park in Dumbo. You can see the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan Bridges jutting out from each side, and hear the subways rattling noisily across them every ten minutes. (Our friends got married in this park a few years ago, and they had to pause their ceremony whenever the subways clattered overhead:)
We chilled in the grass (and I showed off my newly orange toes:), while Toby ate raisins and gazed at the enormous historic carousel that opened last summer...
So, we decided to buy tickets (the attendants' T-shirts say "Pony Up $2!") and take a spin on the carousel.
As we climbed on, Toby suddenly got freaked out by the horses (he cried at first!) so we sat together on the sleigh. (Note the other freaked out baby sitting behind us:)
Look at the rad backdrops in these photos!
We met up with our friends and headed to a nearby playground to hang out...
Dumbo is such a spectacular neighborhood. (This was just a random view we had when we walked to the deli to buy a snack!)
The next day, we headed to the Transit Museum in Brooklyn Heights, which is chock full of vintage subway cars. Toby's head almost exploded.
Taking photos was tricky because he was so excited and giddy that he literally ran everywhere. Just ran!! A little boy's dream come true:)
Oh, New York, sometimes we forget how great you are in the winter, but then summer comes, and we feel guilty for ever complaining. We love you! xoxo

your son is so cute! love these pictures of him just strolling in the city! :P
xo, Tina
WWW.TINACIOUS.MEamy, thanks so much for your note! when we travel with toby, we just try to go by "clock time" as soon as we arrive -- so, for example, if we're going from NY to CA, we'll just try to keep him up late at night and try to keep him quiet in his crib in the morning for as long as possible....and his nap is at 12:30pm clock-time, too....he usually manages to adjust in the first couple days. hope that helps!!!! good luck!!!
ReplyDeleteWe spent the week "touring" our state. I had two rules: 1} Day trip only- we often overlook the towns nearest us. 2} It had to cost less than $100 for the entire week- this forced us to see the simplest sites. My kids were fascinated by all that the neighboring towns we usually only see while driving to more glamourous destinations had to offer. Wow, talk about dangling participles...
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice weekend! It inspires me how you always seem to make time to connect with friends, even for a short while. Hubby was just saying yesterday how we need to make more of an effort with our friends as we are both real homebodies. Now that our kids are getting older (4 & 6) we need to make the effort so they grow up without being socially awkward! ... hahaha.... yes hubby and myself are computer nerds.
ReplyDeleteYour toes are lookin' good! So fun to meet you at the nail place on Saturday, Joanna. You were so sweet to chat with us! You're right - what a perfect NYC weekend - we biked from the west village up to harlem and my brothers favorite "Dinosaur bbq," the back down through central park. Ahhh what a great day! Hope to see you around the neighborhood again:)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun NY adventure! It's funny though, I feel so different. I love the city in the winter. Although, when I was doing my alternate side parking dance today, it was really nice to roll the windows down and let the sun in while I waited for the street sweeper. Welcome, Spring!
www.ArtsandDafts.comWhat great photos! And Toby looks like such a little *man* all of a sudden! It's really heartwarming that you and your family seem to really put your hearts into having good weekend adventures. I've always felt that people would have more joy and good health in their lives if they spent more time going out and *doing* thing!
ReplyDelete- melissab4:27 PM
super photos!
hee hee! having had little boys once, i totally relate to the "head explosion" description. living in rurals-ville (ie. no big buildings/subway, etc), our guys had to be satisfied with chasing the one train that came to town once a week. chasing a train? yes! in a car with their dad driving. they'd hear the train's whistle and be off. most of the conductors waved and knew exactly what was going on.
take care :-)
