to all who think this is good. If you are between the ages of 55 and 65 do not bother to apply for any of these companies. It doesnt matter how qualified you are they age discrimminate.
8:19 am on Monday, February 27, 2012
I agree with Cindy. Even if your age is not on your resume/application, it is readily available through many sources, including the White Pages on-line phone listings.
No matter how healthy, how capable, how qualified you may be, your age works against you.

Great networkers who have a wide audience of busines professionals willing to be active advocates for them, in companies all over town, have a much better chance of landing a job, no matter their age. Submitting resumes is only HALF of the trick of landing a job. How's your LinkedIn profile? Is it full of accomplishments and connections that say you're a person others want to work with and hire? Are you showing up at luncheons and breakfasts within your industry, meeting new folks, being seen? Are you actively volunteering in a civic group where you'll make a positive impression on board members, staff and other volunteers? Participating in jobseeker clubs like CVJS and Hudson Job Search is a great help. There's no doubt that landing a job over 50 is challenging - but I've seen outgoing, positive and dynamic folks land jobs over and over again.
7:38 pm on Wednesday, February 29, 2012
Right on Cindy. I knew a guy in that age bracket that went to a job interview for a large industrial employer in Canton and the interviewer took one look at him when he walked in the door and said "well you're an old guy". You can not network out self out of this box. There is simply too much labor in this area and all the double dipping going on is not helping matters.
And then there is the oil and gas company's telling the newspapers that they are bringing 1000 jobs to town but not telling the media that they are bringing 995 people from out of state to get them because you have to have 3-5 years or more experience doing exactly that job to get that job.

This isn't a luxury car, and Buick isn't really a luxury brand. It's always slotted above Chevrolet and below Cadillac as a "premium" brand. Nobody wants a $30k microcar, which is what it would be with more feature content, a first-rate i-drive/mmi type interface, and tons of stitched leather. And not all luxury cars have this type of interface anyway. The new Lincoln MKZ and ATS come to mind.
The interior *looks* better than the Fiat, Smart and even Mini. Me thinks you are expecting far too much from what is an entry level car w/ a vaguely premium (i.e. Euro) feel. To tart it up would be silly and akin to trying to make it something it is not. I personally find cars like the "Gucci" edition Fiat a joke, but that's just me.

Who comes to a car enthusiast site expecting to hear sound marketing analysis?!
As a car guy who appreciates all types of cars from various brands and cares very little about badging, I don't care if they bring it here as a Daewoo. I'm not here to discuss the merits of selling it under the Buick nameplate because, wait for it.....I don't give a rats ass.
But please, by all means, continue to get your panties in a wad over nothing.
Au contraire, maybe this is their time to get into a new niche, and get new people in the brand. Dont sell the base model here, and market it more as a mini competitor.
I know it would sell well in Canada, the B class even sells well here! But were 1/10th of the market the US is... and ive only ever been to Vermont and New Hampshire so I have no idea how this would do over there... using the knowledge ive acquired from the internet... id say it has the potential to flop But then again doesnt the 500 sell well down there? (now). Id love to see this (and similar cars) succeed in North America, and personally, I think bringing it here as a Buick is a good idea.
Air Cooled > Air Ride
If it were to come here as a Chevy it would have to be, above all else, very cheap to purchase. I doubt gm would be able to manufacture this in a more cost friendly location any time soon. Now, if they sold it and marketed it as a Bucik, they genuinely have a chance at pulling off the "premium small car" thing. They could import them from Germany and sell them at competitive prices. No one would pay 20k for this if it had a Chevy badge, but as a Buick, I personally think that it could work. It could do good to the brand as well, as I and others have stated, it could broaden the demographic appeal of the Buick brand.
This COULD work... and in my mind, the only way would be to position it as a mini competitor, something that I dont see happening if its badged as a Chevy.
Air Cooled > Air Ride
What a bunch of pathetic wannabe hipsters. They're not even hipsters. Lame.
I have a manual transfer case. Praise be unto Me.
+1, the design is a turn off. Part of the problem for me is that it appears pointy. Also it tends to be too large on the car. It isnt quite in the same class of bad grille designs as the timelessly hilarious Acura eagle-beak or the Lincoln "Sperm Whale" masterpiece, but it needs a redux nonetheless. A nondescript black mesh would look better...

Name it the Buick Mol. And yeah, this grill doesnt work on this car.

I have a Tomtom 140s. It is the smaller type -- 3.5 inches. I had the larger one but it was just too bulky and unnecessary, so I sold that to a friend. The 140s has IQ Routes, spoken street names, Advanced Lane Guidance. The IQ Routes means that it takes into effect traditional traffic patterns in areas, especially cities, to get you to take the fastest possible route.
I have used GPS's for years, almost every brand, and I have to say Tomtoms are the best, IMHO. The ability to do things like remove roads that are no longer there or washed out is invaluable. There's an important bridge near here that is permanently out of service. When I had a Garmin (brand new with the latest maps), I couldn't remove it from the GPS, so you'd have to examine the route to see if the bridge was in the manifest and then click on detour many times to find another route without that bridge. Or guess and start driving in another direction to see if it would reroute around the bridge, but then it may have been better to head in the other direction. Sounds like not a big deal, but it matters. It's just not clean and easy. But with the Tomtom, I simply clicked "revise map" and highlighted the bridge and marked it inaccessible.
And the Tomtom user interface is more logical and easier to use. The Garmin's is kind of muddled and not as intuitive. I've also used Magellans and Rightways and Nextar. None have matched Tomtom. In a job I had for 2 years, I had to do a lot of driving to customer's houses, and 99.9% of the time, the Tomtom got me to their front door. Hardly ever had to look at a map or consult Google Maps.
I had a Tomtom 130 that my company gave us 4 years ago, then I bought a brand new Garmin but was not impressed, so I picked up a 140s 2 years ago. I was out visiting my parents, and they loved the spoken street feature, so I let them keep it, and I took their 130 in exchange, but then I bought another 140s.

Thanks aurora. It feels like Christmas in September! This is a big deal for Lions' fans. My Dad stopped by my work today to tell me the great news!
This was today's lead story on ESPN's ARTH and PTI> wonder what Jay Leno and Jimmy Kimmel will say since the Lions have been the butt of some of their jokes over the years... Katie Courac was preparing for it to be her lead story on the evening news, but some debate controversy popped up
Thanks Kimmie! Mariucci was on NFL radio and took a lot of shots at Millen for being inexperienced and incompetent.
It's probably best that they are going to wait to take time to find a replacement... The Lions' front office will now be led by executive vice president Tom Lewand, who will report to the owner on business issues, and new general manager Martin Mayhew, who will report to the owner on football matters. "These decisions are for the duration of the 2008 season," Ford's statement said. "Once the season is over, we will undergo a thorough and comprehensive evaluation of our entire football operation and put together a plan that we believe will transform this team into a winner."
Knowing the nimrod was here 7 1/2 years is mind-boggling. What was Ford thinking when he re-upped his contract? Though I was ecstatic when I first heard the news this morning, I've come to the sobering reality that the Fords still own the Lions. Knowing the Fords have owned this sad-sack for 40+ years, what credible GM in his right mind would want to take over the reins? I fear the Fords will have no choice but to hire another half-wit, inexperienced dunderhead. Think Cuban's interested in a football franchise? Or maybe BillD? Hall-bound Bill Davidson on all the banners and all the bummers | Freep.com | Detroit Free Press
From what I've heard, by the time WCF is done paying it may be more like $50M...pretty sweet. Maybe Millen isn't so dumb afterall. His wife sounded obnoxiously arrogant in commenting that Matt is now relieved of his "football prison". If WCF isn't steaming right now, he should be.
Yup. Because he was fired, he's due the full amount of his contract, which would bring it to $50 million. The 2 sides could also agree to a buy-out for less. A while back, Matt Millen said that if WCF every wanted him out, all he had to do was say the word and he wouldn't take anymore money. Well, let's see if that happens...
Listen, WCF doesn't give one crap about Detroiters, blue collar workers or Lions fans. This total incompetent, bourgeoisie aristocrat has been sticking it to the working man, absolutely screwing his own employees that are Lions fans for years. He probably laughs his ass off at how stupid people are to keep watching, and paying to follow this team, when he has run it into the ground against all odds for 40 years (NFL Parity). This move just takes the heat off of Ford. He would have to be mentally retarded (I have not ruled this out yet) to not realize that Millen was an epic failure that will be part of NFL legend, and his greater NFL legend of being the worst NFL owner in league history. Either this guy couldn't manage a sandwich out of a lunchbox, or he's screwed Lions fans for years in some sick demented game of "maybe next season". There is no middle ground on this. Whew, that was a long time coming.
If you read some of the history on the Ford family, including Henry, you'll no doubt despise them even more. Not good people, IMO.
Yeah, ignorance and the Ford name have gone hand in hand for a long time. In 1938, after the Nazis rose to power, Ford received a special birthday present from Hitler. The Grand Cross of the Order of the German Eagle (Grosskreuz des Deutschen Adlerordens) was the highest honor the Reich could bestow on a foreigner. On Henry's 75th birthday, two representatives of the German government came to his office in Dearborn, Michigan and presented him the medal. It was accompanied by a personal greeting from Hitler himself. Ford proudly accepted the honor, and never relinquished it. Not after Germany started World War II, not after America was attacked by Japan, not even after the depravities of the Holocaust were revealed. Throughout the war, Jewish groups had unsuccessfully urged Ford to return his medal, as the head of IBM had done. Ford had a better idea. He decided they would have to pry it from his cold, dead, Jew-hating hands.
Bought one a home on Belleville Lake also. If you're ever there, you'll see a turn of the century boat storage building made of brick and stone, right on the water. Same style building is located back at the old Ford house in Dearborn.

"We love crab meat and this is a wonderful crab salad for summer. Easy to make." — Theresa
Watch video tips and tricks
8 slices bacon
1 (10 ounce) package frozen green peas, thawed
1 pound imitation crab meat, flaked
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
I loved this dish and surprisingly, so did my BF. I left out the bacon completely and used light mayo but kept the rest of the recipe exactly the same. I will definitely make this again but next time, I will try FF mayo and maybe a sprinkling of parmesan.
Okay recipe but doesn't keep long.

Great served on Hawaiian bread!
Beautiful as well as delicious! Add a little fresh lemon juice and serve.... thanks for this recipe
Very good. I used real crab instead of imitation and I actually think it would have been better with the imitation as it would have had more "meatiness" to it. But very good!
I used this recipe alongside Lasagna and it was pretty good. I did not make ahead, although discovered that I could have. This salad held up really well and actually tasted great 2 days later. I couldn't get the crab meat to "flake" so I just used a random chop. I doubled the recipe with no trouble at all. Great salad for a buffet!
Far out
This turned out great. Followed recipe exactly and everyone liked it. Has made my recipe box and not the trash can. Thanks for sharing

Monitoring nitrogen farming
Grad student receives equipment to help research
Tuesday, Apr. 24, 2012
PULLMAN, Wash. – Cornelius Adewale, a graduate student in the Washington State University Department of Crop and Soil Sciences, has been awarded Decagon research equipment by the Grant A. Harris Research Instrumentation Fellowship to assist in his research into nitrogen leaching in organic farm management.
In the past nitrogen management has led to groundwater pollution, global warming due to N2O emissions and eutrophication. Using the Decagon Drain Gauge G3, Adewale will be studying the flux of water and nitrogen draining from farm soil. Data from this research may help improve nitrogen management strategies in the future to prevent environmental damage. To learn more about Adewale's research and the other award recepients, visit the 2012 GA Harris Winners page.
The Grant A. Harris Fellowship provides $30,000 worth of Decagon research instruments to graduate students studying any aspect of environmental science or geotechnical science. In 2012, when selecting from the more than 50 applicants, the committee focused on research involving innovative soil and plant monitoring.
The fellowship was created in honor of Grant A. Harris who served as the chairman for the WSU Department of Forestry and Range Management and as chairman of the board for Decagon Devices. To learn more about the fellowship, visit the Decagon website.

I listened to Tarpley for about 90 minutes. Though more entertaining and lucid than most, he's still a delusional paranoid. I don't pay much attention to where these conspiracy cracked-pots sit on the political spectrum. Left or right, they're paranoia or revenge driven zealots who have lost the ability to assimilate reality. When they talk about towers on the moon or statues on Mars, they're entertaining; when they talk about decent people who work in govt being involved in murder they are corrosives eating at the structure that stabilizes the culture. Here they are the incubators for the McViegh, and in the ME, of the Ben Ladens. The Tarpleys plant seeds that mutate badly; another paranoid uber-nationalist freak went on a rampage and killed four in AZ yesterday; these guys are rarely bright enough to formulate their complex delusions on their own. Tarpley, Jones, et al fed them.I also noted GN's repeated attempt to get him to address the mindset of conspiracy freaks...which he side-stepped.
listening to the show ... someone should tell George that the host is not the SUBJECT of the show. he keeps talking about himself. not very interesting. the story about how he locked himself out of his car wasnt terribly interesting. surprisingly George drives a Ford.
Here's my take: Lately, especially this week, George is taking a more art bell style approach to the show, even this mundane story of his car keys was Bell-ish... Just a thought.
George used the Inca interview to plus Ancient Aliens "they interviewed me for a TV show Ancient Aliens." The comment that followed had nothing to do with Ancient Aliens. He is clueless. You can hear the wheels churning and grinding in his head.
George has moving parts in his head? That's a surprise.
I doubt that
Last night's first hour interview of Mark Adams, on Machu Puchu and the Inca, condensed all GN's problems as a host and interviewer; banal, unprepared, ADD-prone, and unclever. He came very close to ruining an interesting segment with a smart, down-to-earth scholar, but Adams knowledge and skill allowed him to keep the focus on the Inca; a great civilization overshadowed by silliness about the Maya or Nazca. I could have listened to Adams for the full program. The submarine UFO schlub was more Noory's speed.Psst...George...it doesn't have to be weird or strange to be a good topic. You don't have to force the subject to lost secret codes and unexplained powers. (BTW...is there any way to get rid of that dopey old poll frame that pastes itself to the top of each new page in the thread?)
I thought Noory would mix up what the guest last night was discussing called USO (Unidentified Submerged Object)Noory would ask him about USO entertainers for the miltary.
... All 'progressive' bullshit propaganda. ...
The term "Progressive Bullshit" is a pleonasm
...GN's problems as a host and interviewer; banal, unprepared, ADD-prone, and unclever. He came very close to ruining an interesting segment with a smart, down-to-earth scholar...
Ya see what that kind of rhetoric attracts, stevesh ??
There are things I don't like about Ian and G. Knapp, but I always feel they are prepared for their shows.
Prepared and at the very least feigning enthusiasm for the upcoming four hours, if not genuinely anticipating the conversation about to unfold. Whereas Snoory always appears to facing some unpleasant task, like taking out the garbage.
What Giorgio Tsoukaloososkdisis put in here.... yea!
Noory later interjected that Billy Mumy of Twilight Zone is a "friend of the show" (C2C) ... Hasn't Noory mentioned Billy Mumy enough? Wow! Noory really knows celebrities.
Noory won't admit he really admires Mumy for his years of moving performances in "Lost in Space".
... Scott mentioned that Barnabas of Dark Shadows (Jonathan Frid) had recently died at the age of 87 due to a fall. Noory had to chime in that his Dad died at 88 also because of a fall....

Portland Wrestling
Sports Arena
Portland, OR
Don Coss and Dutch Savage are in the Crows Nest.
Coss, Welcome to the House of Action! We are coming off an exciting Portland Special and what a night of action it was. Dusty Rhodes is still the World Champion and the Army still holds all the Northwest Titles, but that might change tonight. Well talk about that in a while, but first, we have a man returning to the Northwest, welcome back, Dean Ho.
Ho joins them in the Crows Nest.
Coss, Welcome back Dean, its great to see you again.
Ho, Thank you Don and Dutch, glad to see you again. Im excited to be here and ready to get going.
Savage, Dean, its good to see you again. You had great success before and I expect you to do it again.
Coss, Lets see Dean Ho in action.
Match #1
Dean Ho def. Buck Ramstead, w/abdominal stretch
Playboy Buddy Rose and the Army are in the Crows Nest.
Coss, Mr. Rose, a mixed bag on Tuesday. You and Ed Wiskoski held onto the tag titles, but Rip Oliver did not win the World Title, and he could lose the Northwest Title tonight. And it looks like you are minus one Army member.
Rose, Thats right, Heffernan couldnt get it done, so hes gone! Ed and I still have these title belts and well keep them. Oliver is going to take care of Snuka tonight and the Army will still rule the Northwest.
Coss, Lets talk about the Northwest Tag Team Titles. You have to face Stasiak and Billy Jack, they are the top contenders.
Rose, Lets not get ahead of ourselves. Our lawyers are on this. We have contracts that are signed for matches against top teams, White Cloud and Lightfoot, Della Serra and McGinnis and a lot of others. Stasiak and Billy Jerk have to wait their turn.
Savage, Rose, you want me to get mad, you want me to lose my temper, Im not going to do that. I know your lawyers have found all kinds of loopholes, but theyll miss one, I promise you that.
Rose, Savage, you have been jealous of me for ten years and its just sad.
Coss, Lets address a rumor that has been going around. There is talk of a new man joining the Army. So much so that a match has reportedly been signed for next week, your new man vs. Matt Borne.
Rose, Ill announce it now. The Assassin is coming. He will meet Matt Borne and he will beat that little weasel, you can book it.
Coss, Well see what happens. Lets see the Playboy in action.
Match #2
Playboy Buddy Rose def. Terry Adonis, w/Billy Robinson backbreaker
Stan Stasiak and Billy Jack are in the Crows Nest.
Coss, With me are two men who are chomping at the bit to get the Northwest Tag Titles, but it doesnt look like Rose and Wiskoski want to give you a shot.
BJ, Cowards! Thats what they are! Stan and I have beaten everyone else, and they still wont give us a shot!
Stasiak, Billys right. They are cowards. I know that the Commission will work on it, we may have to wait, but well get our chance.
Savage, I know a lot of fans dont understand it, but the Commission has some power granting title shots, but there has to be an open contract. Rose and his lawyers have tied up all of them, but I know theyll find a loophole. Stasiak and Billy will get a title shot.

Coss, With us is Jimmy Superfly Snuka. Jimmy you meet Rip Oliver in a few minutes, this is the chance of a lifetime.
Sunka, Bruddah, I came here to win a title and Im going to do it. Oliver and Rose get by with cheating, but its not going to be enough! Im taking that title, Oliver, its over for you!
Coss, Later tonight, Snuka vs. Oliver, its going to be fantastic.
Match #4
Doug Somers def. The Masked Gladiator, w/Neckbreaker
Coss, The Main Event is next.
Main Event, Two out of Three Falls
Northwest Championship
Rip Oliver (Champion) w/Playboy Buddy Rose vs. Jimmy Superfly Snuka
First Fall-
Snuka takes the fight to Oliver. Rip is in early trouble. He takes to the floor to confer with Rose, but Snuka follows him. He slams their heads together and tosses Oliver back into the ring. Sunka whips Oliver into the ropes and slaps on the Sleeper. The Champion gets to the ropes and the hold is broken. Oliver mounts a comeback, but its not enough. Snuka slaps on the Fijian Full Nelson! Oliver submits!
Winner-Jimmy Snuka
Matt Borne is in the Crows Nest.
Coss, Wow! Snuka wins the first fall, and with the Fijian Full Nelson! We havent seen that for a long time. Now on to Matt Borne, Matt, you meet the Assassin, Buddy Roses new man, next week. What do you know about him?
Borne, Ive heard of him, they say hes good. If Rose brings him in, hes going to be tough.
Coss, Thats right. If he works for Rose, hes tough and he breaks all the rules.
Borne, Im ready. Steve and I came close to winning the tag titles, but Im not giving up. We all know what Rose is like and I want to shut him up and Ill start with the Assassin.
Coss, Next weeks main event is the Assassin vs. Matt Borne, dont miss it.
Second Fall-
Oliver jumps Snuka before the bell. He works over Jimmy, but makes the mistake of slamming Jimmys head into the turnbuckle. That doesnt faze the Superfly. He goes to work on the Champion and it looks like we will have a new Champion. Sunka rolls up Oliver, but Rip rolls through and grabs the trunks. Referee Sandy Barr counts the fall. Its one all.
Winner-Rip Oliver
Coss and Savage are in the Crows Nest.
Coss, Dutch, I thought Jimmy had it, but he still has a fall to go. Hes so close.
Savage, I still have faith in him, but Oliver has Rose at ringside and thats always a problem.
Coss, The crowd is on the edge of their seats, this third fall will be fantastic. Now lets talk about the coming weeks in the Northwest. This man will be making a tour of the area.
We see a picture of Harley Race.
Coss, Former World Champion, Harley Race, will be here for several weeks. Dutch, thats a big deal.
Savage, Harley Race is one of the toughest men in the game. Hes a World Champion, and many think he will win it again. The fans are in for a treat when Race shows up.
Coss, We will have more on Race next week. Now lets see the third fall.
Third Fall-
There is very little time left in the program. This is a brawl. Both men slug it out, and Rose tries several times to get involved. Neither man is able to take a fall and the time limit runs out.
Result-Time Limit Draw
Coss, What a match, these two must meet in a rematch. Remember next week, the Assassin vs. Matt Borne, dont miss it.

Such a great episode of tv.
The Assassin is an upgrade of Hefferman, so the army just got stronger, and that main event for next week looks to be a doozy.
Snuka came close, and I too hope to see a rematch.
The chase of the tag titles just keeps heating up as Rose is trying everything to keep from facing Stasiak and Haynes. The heat for that match is going to be off the charts when it finally happens.

I really liked the Snuka Oliver match. Your writing style made that great with the Borne storyline thrown in there. That's good writing.
Billy Jack is as raw as hamburger, but the fans were all over him. You are bringing him along just as he should be.
I am still hoping you will trade for Lord Alfred Hayes at some point!
Great work as always Tom and a whole lotta fun to read!

Quick-Clean Centrifugal Screener Maintains Temperatures
A new Insulated, Quick-Clean Centri-Sifter High Capacity Centrifugal Screener from Kason Corporation features an insulated jacket that maintains the temperature of hot or cold materials being sifted, while keeping the machine's exterior skin closer to room temperature for personnel safety.
It also offers a three-bearing shaft that cantilevers for rapid removal of internal components.
External roller bearings are located at the motor end of the shaft and on a sliding cover at the discharge end for maximum support and vibration-free operation. When the end cover is slid open, the shaft becomes a cantilever supported by a third externally-mounted roller bearing located between the motor-end bearing and material feed point, allowing internal components to slide freely from the opposite shaft end.
The unit is equipped with Clean-In-Place Spray Balls for rapid sanitizing using steam or cleaning solution without removal of internal components.
Dry or moist bulk solid material is gravity-fed into the horizontally oriented cylindrical screening chamber fitted with heavy-duty wedgewire screen. A rotating helical paddle assembly accelerates the radial movement of particles against the screen causing on-size particles to pass through apertures in the screens and fall through a cone-shaped discharge chute. Oversize particles are propelled through the open end of the screen cylinder and ejected through a discharge spout.
In addition to sifting and scalping of dry bulk materials, the screener can break up soft agglomerates and/or dewater moist solids or slurries.
The screener is constructed of stainless steel finished to industrial, 3-A, FDA, BISSC, and other sanitary standards.

Newest Research Funded by The Charles E. Holman Foundation Reveals Spirochetes in MD Tissues
AUSTIN, Texas (PRWEB) January 08, 2013
The newest research on the mysterious human illness known as Morgellons disease published in the January 2013 online journal Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology has revealed surprising results.
Previous work by veterinary microbiologist Marianne J. Middelveen from Calgary, Alberta, Canada and internist Raphael B. Stricker from San Francisco, CA, explored the chemical and physical properties of the mysterious filaments / fibers found in the skin of MD patients. The present study, Characterization and evolution of dermal filaments from patients with Morgellons disease (http://www.dovepress.com/characterization-and-evolution-of-dermal-filaments-from-patients-with--peer-reviewed-article-CCID), investigated the immunohistochemical and electron microscopic aspects of MD. An exciting discovery in MD epithelial tissue was the presence of spiral or curved structures consistent in size and shape with spirochetes. Further examination with specific staining techniques is underway to confirm the spirochetal presence. The genetic identification of MD spirochetes remains to be determined.
"This evidence is very provocative and gives direct credibility to an infectious etiology", said internist/dermatologist Peter J. Mayne of Laurieton, NSW, Australia, who is coauthor of the study. The other coauthor is pathologist Douglas G. Kahn of Olive View-UCLA Medical Center in Sylmar, CA.
"Recognizing Morgellons as an emerging infectious disease is paramount" said Dr. Stricker. "It is imperative that responsible action be taken by the medical and scientific communities to meet the very real challenges that MD has created."
The CEHF 6TH Annual Medical-Scientific Conference on Morgellons Disease will be held April 6-7, 2013 in Austin, TX. Key scientists, researchers and leading medical experts will be attending to present and discuss these significant new developments. Further information will be available at the foundation's website at http://www.thecehf.org
The Charles E. Holman Foundation (The CEHF) is a 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization committed to advocacy and philanthropy in the fight against Morgellons disease. The foundation was named for Charles E. Holman, a pioneer in the fight against Morgellons disease. The Charles E. Holman Foundation (The CEHF) is based in Austin, Texas and is led by Executive Director Cindy Casey Holman, R.N.

Three students from South Ripley High School were killed and three others injured after a two-vehicle crash in Ripley County.
Indiana State Police said the crash happened at the intersection of County Road 850 W and Fairgrounds Road just before 10 a.m.
Troopers said six students, all from South Ripley Senior-Junior High School, were in two pickups that collided at the intersection. Three teens were in each pickup, a 1999 Dodge Ram 3500 and a 1996 Ford F-250, troopers said.
Photos: Crash Scene / Raw: Conference on fatal Ripley County crash
As both vehicles approached the four-way stop intersection, preliminary reconstruction findings indicated both vehicles disregarded the stop sign and the Dodge Ram 3500 struck the Ford F-250 broadside, according to Indiana State Police. After impact, both vehicles traveled off the roadway approximately 100 feet into a cornfield in the northeast corner of the intersection.
Three teens were pronounced dead at the scene. Police identified them as Timothy C. Bowman, who was the driver of the Ford F-250, Jacob Vogel, 18, and Samantha Hanson, also 18.
Vogel, of Versailles, was a passenger in the F-250.
Hanson, of Holton, was a passenger in the Dodge Ram 3500.
Three others were injured. Police say the driver of the Dodge, identified as Thomas Crawford, 17, was transported to University of Cincinnati Medical Center with chest injuries.
Caleb M. Cumberworth, 15, of Holton, suffered minor injuries to his hand and was transported to Margaret Mary Hospital in Batesville. Cumberworth was a passenger in the Dodge.

Web edition: August 30, 2012
Print edition: October 6, 2012; Vol.182 #7 (p. 13)
BEIJING — Rocky planets zipping around distant stars might reveal themselves in the chemical elements missing from their host star.
Compared to stars like it, the sun contains fewer planet-building elements such as aluminum, calcium and silicon, Jorge Melendez of the University of Sao Paolo in Brazil said on August 27 at the International Astronomical Union's general assembly meeting. "For some reason, the sun is missing these more heavy elements." So stars like the sun might be a good place to hunt for rocky planets — and Melendez and his colleagues are doing just that.
While astronomers already knew that stars accompanied by giant planets contain more heavy elements, this work suggests that chemistry could also flag the presence of smaller, terrestrial planets.
So far, one candidate shines brighter than the rest: a star called HIP 56948, 200 light-years from Earth, whose light very closely resembles the sun's chemical signature. While no planets have been found orbiting that star yet, Melendez is still looking.
"That happens to be the star that's an almost identical copy of the sun," Melendez said. "In our opinion, it could be a very good target."
To assess the elemental signatures written into the solar twins, Melendez and his colleagues spied on 11 stars using the Magellan telescope in Chile. The scientists found that the sun is different from most of those stars, and suggest that building rocky planets depletes the amount of planet ingredients available to the forming star.
While the idea is compelling, it needs to be verified, said Nader Haghighipour of the University of Hawaii at Manoa. "It's an approach that, considering our solar system, seems to be viable," he says. "Until they find one or two systems with planets, it's hard to say anything."

Spinach Salad for Lunch
This is my 20th day at eating 100% raw low nuts and seeds. This was my lunch today a salad made with avocado, green onions, sea salt, spinach and carrots. It is simple and very tasty and lately has been a staple of mine. I have been eating lara bars lately, I will have one or two per day sometimes so I am still eating some nuts and seeds but the amount has drastically reduced. I have been eating mostly fruit for breakfast lately grapefruit, satsumas, and bananas. Then for lunch I will usually have a nice big salad and then I just kind of snack the rest of the day eating whatever is raw and appeals to me. I feel completely satisfied and full. My agenda this week is to try out making a raw burger, I have some ingredients for it and hope to drag myself into the kitchen soon to try it. In other news I am teaching yoga around 16 classes per week, I just recently started teaching a pilates class which I enjoy because it switches things up a bit. Also, teaching pilates forces me to work out my core even more than doing yoga. I have to be able to talk while I am encouraging my students and so I need to be one step ahead of the game. I am teaching kids tennis, kids ballet and soon will be teaching kids yoga. One thing about working for yourself though is that you spend a lot of time in the car driving from one place to another. I am spending about twice as much money on gas right now with all of my driving around. Anyways, hope you all have a good day and wish me luck as I complete my 30 days 100% raw and then hopefully raw for the rest of the year. Glad for those of you who got some great deals at under the canopy!
Spinach Salad Recipe:
Ingredients: 2 cups of spinach
1 avocado
2 tablespoons of green onion
1 tsp sea salt
1 carrot
Directons: Smash up the avocado, green onion, and sea salt until all mashed togetehr. Mix in the spinach. Peel your carrot into thin strips to garnish your salad. Eat and enjoy!

This was OK. Mine came out a bit dry and I only baked it for 50 minutes. Flavor was good though.I trimmed off the top so the cake was flat then made 3 layers out of it. I filled it with a home-cooked strawberry filling and chocolate whipped cream icing between each layer then frosted it with the chocolate whipped cream. I didn't have any lemons on hand, so I used about 1/4 tsp of lemon extract. I think this cake would work out better in a trifle.

Kansas lawmakers call it the Paycheck Protection Act. Some union members call it a first step in attacking the power of public unions.
Wednesday the Kansas House passed a first vote on a bill banning automatic payroll deductions of public union dues connected to political activity. Political activities include aiding or promoting the endorsement, nomination or defeat of a candidate for public office.
Teachers in the union pay dues. Right now that money can be automatically deducted from a paycheck and teachers say it's an easy way to pay their dues. Many times, that money is used for political purposes like supporting a candidate or lobbying.
The bill being debated in the legislature would only allow payroll deductions to be spent on union operations. If a union member wanted to support a political issue, they would have to write a separate check to the union. The union says in essence, fewer people would write those checks which would mean potentially less money and less power for the union.
"There needs to be separate accounts and the money cannot be co-mingled. One is political activities, the other is for operations of the union for their advocacy of their issues," said Republican Representative Marvin Kleeb.
History teacher Larry Smith says the language of the bill is tricky. "The problem with the bill is that it is so generally defined that practically everything a union does would come under that heading "political activity,"' said Smith.
Rep. Kleeb says it protects union members from pressures to make political contributions. "A bunch of them said I didn't want to be embarrassed, I didn't want to be ostracized. I didn't want to have any retribution. Whether any of that happened? I don't know. Like I said, it's kind of a self-imposed perception that's out there," said Rep. Kleeb.
"This is a right to work state. Nobody is intimidated to join a union," said Smith.
Because Kansas is a right to work state, teachers or other workers don't have to join a union. Members can already opt out of fees connected to political committees. Smith sees the Paycheck Protection Act as an attack on unions.
"This is the first step in destroying unions and so that's what they want to do is take away the funding for that," said Smith.
The final House vote on the bill will be Thursday. Then it goes to the Kansas Senate. If passed, union members can still make political contributions to their union. They can write a check or have automatic deductions taken from their bank accounts instead of their paycheck.

I know there was a post years ago regarding road side milkweed. Not sure where to find it.
I would assume that this milkweed is not a good choice to collect eggs, cat or use as a food source for cats. Am I correct? I am thinking there would be too many automobile contaminants on them.
I am curious about growing milk weed. It seems to be very hardy. Will it grown in sandy conditions. There is a location near my home which I would love to scatter seeds.

Research expertise
I was awarded a PhD from The University of Newcastle over 10 years ago, and since then have been involved in health related research and teaching in my position as an academic within the Faculty of Health. As a biostatistician and methodologist, I have been involved in studies with a wide variety of different content areas, designs and settings. Despite this, common themes include cardiovascular disease, randomised controlled trials and challenging methodological areas such as longitudinal studies and meta-analysis. Other themes include multidisciplinary research and capacity building. I have a wide range of consulting experience, nationally and internationally. As a member of numerous state and national committees, and a consultant for additional government agencies and non government organizations, I have provided important input on quantitative and methodological issues.
In total I have been an investigator on grants to the value of over $17 million and a co-author on almost 100 peer reviewed journal articles, letters, book chapters and commissioned reports. While my role has varied across research projects and publications, I have made a vital contribution to all of these projects. This has involved providing advice on design, conduct, analysis and interpretation, as well as the actual writing of grants, journal articles and reports. In addition I have taken the lead role in various projects. The range of different content and methodological areas of my research is indicative of the importance of and need for high quality biostatistical input in health research. I believe that my input to both research grants and publications had contributed to the quality of these products.
I have successfully supervised or co-supervised to completion six research masters students and six PhD students, with an additional PhD student currently completing corrections required by Examiners. I am supervising several other current PhD students. The topics undertaken by these students cover a range of content areas and study designs, with varying levels of statistical complexity. Students have been enrolled both full time and part time, and include off campus and international students.
In addition, my roles as Deans Representative for Research Higher Degree for the Faculty of Health and Research Development Manager have given me substantial understanding of and experience in the administrative aspects of the research higher degree process, and an insight into the research training environment across the Faculty of Health and wider university.

Teaching expertise
I have approximately 20 years of teaching experience, including the development and delivery of at least 15 courses at both undergraduate and postgraduate level and for on campus, distance learning and international students. I have taught 5 different undergraduate courses at the University of Newcastle, including the public health component of the Bachelor of Medicine Program, and 10 different post-graduate or honours courses within the University of Newcastle (Faculty of Health and Discipline of Statistics) and the University of Queensland. My role in teaching has included the development of new courses for on-campus and distance learning delivery, modification of existing material for distance learning delivery and all aspects of course co-ordination and assessment. In addition I have been program convenor for the Post-graduate programs in Medical Statistics at the University of Newcastle. In 2003 I was the recipient of the Faculty of Health, University of Newcastle, Excellence in Teaching Award.
I have also developed and delivered numerous short courses and workshops, locally and internationally on topics such as critical appraisal, sample size, survey design, meta-analysis, analysis of longitudinal data, multi-level modeling and. data analysis and writing.
My experience in distance learning spans 15 years and includes local and international distance learning through the University of Newcastle, the Biostatistics Collaboration of Australia and the University of Queensland. I have developed courses specifically for Distance Learning as well as modified on-campus courses for delivery in Distance Learning mode.
In my role as Academic Co-ordinator for the Distance Learning Program managed by the Centre for Clinical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, I was responsible for providing academic advice on courses and programs, undertaking various administrative activities associated with running national and international distance learning programs, developing the program for and facilitating Distance Learning Residentials. As part of this co-ordination I was also responsible for managing a cohort of 13 distance learning students in Zimbabwe, as part of a program funded by AusAID, as well as several cohorts of students in Japan.
My teaching philosophy revolves around trying to de-mystify statistics and ensure that students understand basic and important statistical concepts, rather than taking a cookbook approach involving rote learning and memorizing formulae and methods. Statistics can be a difficult to learn, as well as being difficult to teach. My teaching training obtained during my post graduate Diploma in Education provided a good grounding in teaching and learning principals. Key issues for consideration in teaching and assessment are the knowledge and skills which the students should have on completion of the course, and targeting material so that these can be met; and an awareness of the background and expertise of students undertaking the course to ensure that the level of material is appropriate. It is important, where possible to have an understanding of the expectations of the student. I seek to consult with a wide range of staff and potential students as part of curriculum development. Particularly in the early years of a new course, feedback is an essential issue.

When the past tense does not express the past time
When we talk about something that happened in the past, we use the past tense. However, there are also times when we use the past tense to express something else.
a). To express a wish
A wish is not something that happened in the past, but we need to use the past tense.
I wish I had a car. (I do not have a car.)
He wishes he won the lottery.
In the above sentences, the past tense has nothing to do with the past time.
b). In the sentence pattern "It's time …"
When "It's time" followed by a clause, the past tense is used in the clause.
It's time we left.
It's time we took design seriously.
It's time you sold your old car.
Here we are not talking about what happened in the past. If I say "It's time you sold your old car." to you, you still have your car, and you are driving it.
c). To show politeness
Sometimes we use the past tense because we want to be polite. The past tense is more polite than the present tense.
I wonder if you can come to dinner tonight.
I wondered if you could come to dinner tonight.
I was wondering if you could come to dinner tonight.

Easy AdSense.
Please go to the plugin admin page to paste your ad code.
If you are inviting a friend, you use the first sentence. If you are inviting your boss, you probably will use the second or the third sentence. The third, the past progressive tense, is even more polite than the second.
d) In the "if" clause
We use the past tense in the "if" clause, if something is not a fact, or it's unlikely to happen.
If it rained tomorrow, I would not come. (I think it will rain tomorrow.)
If I got a raise, I would throw a party. (I don't believe I will get a raise.)
When we use the simple present tense, it means that we believe it will happen.
If it rains tomorrow, I will not come. (I don't think it will rain tomorrow.)
If I get a raise, I will throw a party. (I think I will get a raise.)
Generally speaking, the past tense is used to express the past time, but there are special uses of the past tense. We need to pay attention to these special uses in learning English.
