Battle Over Medical Marijuana Headed for the Airwaves
By: Jonathan Athens, KARK 4 News
Updated: October 12, 2012
Pro medical marijuana activists say a new survey shows most Arkansas support their cause while a Christian conservative coalition announced it's launching a grassroots and media campaign to convince voters otherwise.
The Family Council presented Thursday a television spot it's planning to start airing next week, portraying medical marijuana as a back door attempt to legalize the drug across the board.
"This TV spot focuses on the dark and secretive side of the medical marijuana industry," Cox said at a news conference at the Capitol.
Arkansans for Compassionate Care said it's kicking off its television spots on Oct. 18 and announced tv host Montel Williams will speak in Little Rock to rally support for Issue 5.
"This is a conservation you should have with your physician," said David Couch of Arkansans for Compassionate Care.
Couch said his group recently commissioned a survey that states more than half of likely voters support medical marijuana. Pollsters surveyed 600 people. The survey consisted of 40 questions, he said.
If voters approve the issue, Arkansas will become the 18th state in the nation to allow medical marijuana and the first such state in the South.

First off, I had ordered the wrong size and needed a queen after putting it all together. I boxed up the full size bed and returned it with NO problems. Lori at customer service was a joy to deal with. The full size bed came with instructions but no hardware, which I went to our local *** store and bought what I needed. ( See my previous post for the full size review) When I ordered the queen size bed, it was delivered within a week of ordering. Most excellent! When I opened it though, this time we received the hardware and no instructions. O.k I thought, at least we know how to put it together! The hardware I bought, I felt, was a little better than what came with the bed...i.e, the bolts were a little longer as well as the machine screws for the legs. I used most of the hardware I had bought because I felt it was a little more secure. With that said, there was a slight odor when I pulled the bed out of the box. Kind of a plastic/rubber smell. This went away after four days or so. The bed was easy to put together ( even a mom can do it!) and even though you will be able to put it together with just yourself, two people would be a lot easier. My son is loving his new bed and it is a lot better than sleeping on the floor on his mattress he says. It goes with the japanese theme he is doing for his room. All in all, I would say this is a good bed for the price. It does not "squeak" and can hold my son and myself, which equals about 400 lbs. Would definitely purchase another one if needed. One other thing. The instructions are not very clear as to which way to put the slats in. Put them in with the bowed side up and you shouldn't have any issues. Enjoy!
Bed was easy to setup, the pictures made the setup a quick job. I put the bed together in about thirty minutes. Don't tighten the screws on the bed rails until you are sure the bed is square. The kit came with hex wrenches that I found to be awkward so I used my own tools. The legs on the bed were missing the matching holes on the frame so I used self taping screws to put them on. So far everyone who has seen the bed has been surprised of its low cost compared to how it looks and how simple it was to setup. I topped the bed with an 11 inch aloe foam mattress from o.co and together they make a quality set that sleeps as well as it looks!
I was on a budget, but still wanted to use my interior design skills to make my room like somewhat classy, and this bed did the job. Don't spend too much money elsewhere, simply by a nice bed frame, and spend the extra cash you save on a nice comforter and a wide range of pillows. If you are in for a decent quality and classy choice, this is for you!
This bed went together pretty well, according to my husband, who assembled it as a surprise for me while I was at work. He said it wasn't a big deal to assemble at all. As for the infamous slats, yes, they're thin, and yes, they look pretty fragile. However, we've been sleeping on this bed for just over a week now, and they are holding up great. We weigh a combined 475 pounds, and have a heavy 10-inch memory foam mattress on it, and it's stable as a rock. No movement, no creaking, no groaning, no cracking. Slats look great. My husband swears he can feel the curve of the slats on his side of the bed (the slats arch up slightly in the center and then arch down towards the sides in order to flatten out with the mattress weight applied) but I don't feel that all on my side. Really happy with this bed, and if a slat breaks, it will be easy to replace with a piece of wood from a lumberyard or even get a whole replacement slat set from Ikea or wherever.
I bought this bed to go with an 11in memory foam mattress; I wanted to do a bed without a box spring so this was the perfect setup. The bed was relatively simple to put together once I got going and took me less than 2 hours to complete. The only trouble I had was with the 4 corner stands, I have yet to figure out how to get those on because the provided screws aren't long enough. For now I put them under the corners and they're holding up just fine. One minor mishap, on the second day after I put this together, my daughter was jumping on it (a definite no no!) and the entire left side collapsed. I couldn't blame it completely on her, however, because I realized that I didn't tighten any of the screws near tight enough. So I got everything back together, each screw in nice and tight and while there's been no jumping on the bed, there hasn't been a problem! I would definitely recommend this bed to friends!
Love it and enjoying it. It's great for my gust room.
This bed is not for long term use. The lats are not sturdy and bend causing sagging. I've had to secure the base with a plywood platform. I would not recommend it for adults or to sleep more than one person at a time and definitely no extra curricular activities.
Was very nice but missing some small important "put together" items.
Better then expected the right choice for a clean simple look . Looks super nice

(b) Upon recordation of such transfer of ownership, the Owner or Agent will transfer all advance rent paid by You (and other fees owed to third parties not already lawfully disbursed) to the new owner within 30 days, and notify You by mail of such transfer and of the new owner's name and address.
16. Insurance/Mandatory Evacuation. Travel Insurance is NON-REFUNDABLE. You may elect to purchase a policy for Travel Insurance. Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations contained in the policy, the policy provides insurance for trip cancellation, trip interruption and travel delay. Ordinary bad weather is not covered under the policy. The premium for the policy has been added to Your Initial Payment. If You do not wish to purchase this policy, You must initial in the designated area on the lease agreement which states that Travel Insurance is not desired. Please note that the terms of the policy define the coverage. Any conflict in the nature or extent of the coverage between the terms of the policy and this Agreement will be governed by the policy. This Agreement is not intended to serve as a substitute for the policy or to define any of the policy terms or provisions. If State or local authorities order a mandatory evacuation of an area that includes the Premises, You shall comply with the order. Upon compliance, You will be entitled to a refund from the insurance company of the prorated rent for each night that You are unable to occupy the Premises because of the order. However, You will not be entitled to a refund from Agent, Owner or the insurance company if prior to taking possession of the Premises, You refused to purchase the policy. If a mandatory evacuation or any other event results in a cancellation, interruption or delay in Your plans, NO REBATE OR REFUND will be offered by the Agent or Owner. The policy is the only means available through the Agent or Owner to protect You from this type of loss. We urge You to take advantage of this option. All questions concerning a refund should be directed to the insurance company.
17. Expedited Eviction. A material breach of this Agreement by You, which, in the sole determination of the Agent, results in damage to the Premises, personal injury to You or others, a breach of the peace, a nuisance to others, or a violation of criminal law or local code, shall be grounds for termination of Your tenancy. You may be evicted under such procedures if You: (i) hold over in possession after Your tenancy has expired; (ii) commit a material breach of any provision of this Agreement that according to its terms would result in the termination of Your tenancy; (iii) fail to pay rent as required by this Agreement, or (iv) have obtained possession of the Premises by fraud or misrepresentation.
18. Indemnification and Hold Harmless. You agree to indemnify and save harmless the Owner and Agent for any liabilities, theft, damage, cost or expense whatsoever arising from or related to any claim or litigation which may arise out of or in connection with Your use and occupancy of the Premises including but not limited to any claim or liability for personal injury or damage or theft of property which is made, incurred or sustained by You. Neither Agent or Owner are providing any other warranty of any kind, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, whether written or oral, statutory or contractual, express or implied, including, without limitation, THE WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE, which are hereby expressly excluded. The terms "Agent" and "Owner" as used in this Agreement shall include their heirs, successors in interest, assigns, employees, agents, and representatives where the context requires or permits. The terms "Tenant," "You," and "Your" as used in this Agreement shall include Tenant's heirs, successors, assigns, guests, invitees, representatives and other persons on the Premises during Your occupancy (without regard to whether such persons have authority under this Agreement to be upon the Premises), where the context requires or permits.
19. Right of Entry. You agree that Agent may enter the Premises during reasonable hours to inspect the Premises, to make such repairs, alterations or improvements thereto as Agent may deem appropriate, or to show Premises to prospective purchasers or tenants.
20. Assignment. You shall not assign this Agreement or sublet the Premises in whole or part without written permission of Agent.
21. Dog Friendly Homes: Limited to 2 adult house-trained dogs only in pet-friendly homes permitting dogs. No dogs allowed in pool or hot tub. Units not permitting these pets are clearly defined in our marketing material and violation of the NO PET rule will be grounds for immediate eviction without refund. Absolutely no other types of animal but dogs are permitted.
22. Disputes: This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, and shall be treated as though it were executed in the City of Virginia Beach, Commonwealth of Virginia. Any action relating to this Agreement shall be instituted and prosecuted only in the Circuit Court for Virginia Beach, VA. You specifically consent to such jurisdiction and to extraterritorial service of process.

I have decided to catalog my shenanigans in audio tinker land, here on my website and also via facebook. Some of it may be interesting, some not, but I want to share damn it! I am always reading up on various forums (some listed below) and I always get inspiration to play and create. From preamps, compressors, vintage gear, plugins, DAW tutorials and everything else, it'll be posted here. For my first post I'll start by listing a few great websites that I frequent almost daily in search of inspiration and knowledge:
- Gearslutz – Are you a slut for any and all gear? This is the place for you. It is mainly focused on studio gear and ideas, but there are so many reviews and tutorials, as well as opinions and advice from quite a few high profile engineers.
- The Andy Sneap forum - This is a sub-forum of The Ultimate Metal forum which is geared toward recording metal and more aggressive music. There are several high profile engineers, such as Jason Suecof and Joey Sturgis who regularly post on the boards.
- Home Recording forum - This forum is the best source for anything regarding music, recording, marketing and the business in general. It's user-base consists of mainly project and home studio owners, who like swapping tweaks, tricks and tips.
- Sweetwater - This is a great resource for pricing out gear and accessories. Sweetwater has more mid to high end gear, including all of the cheaper stuff you could find at Musicians Friend, Music123 and zZounds. Part of gear acquisition is customer support, and these guys are second to none.
- Amazon – You may be saying "Amazon!? What? That has nothing to do with gear or recording." You are partially correct, but I have included this for one reason: SHIPPING. Amazon has a membership program called Amazon Prime, which is absolutely invaluable for ordering gear, parts and pieces. Prime membership gets you FREE 2 day shipping on items and one day shipping for only 3.99 per item. This is a big deal because if you have ever ordered anything with expedited shipping before, you'll know it costs an arm and a leg. Sign up for the free month trial, and I promise you won't be disappointed.
- Craigslist – I was debating on adding this to the list, but I can't even count the number of times I've found stupid deals on this site. Either people need a little quick cash or don't know what they're selling and you can get it super cheap while also avoiding shipping charges. Enough said..
- Ebay – Most everyone knows what eBay is, but we all need a reminder of how useful it is. Give it a visit when you're bored, you never know what you might find.
So there you have it, my list of absolutely GO TO recording and gear sites. I'll probably be referencing most of these in future posts at some point. Stayed tuned for more updates and thanks for reading!

Very cool orcs mate, what technique are you using to create that sticky blood and gore effect ?
Wow! That was the first thing I thought. This looks really great. Could you make some of "solo" models, so we can see more details?

You're similar size to me and ride very similar boards. Please try the HZ in some 2-3ft average waves and let me know it goes! Thanks.
You're similar size to me and ride very similar boards. Please try the HZ in some 2-3ft average waves and let me know it goes! Thanks.
I will fully elaborate whenever it stops pumping, After paddling and surfing all day I barley have it in me to carry my sorry ass to bed, and than I wake up and have to do it all over again, its really quite terrible. Whenever I take a day off I will write a full review.
PRJ are you speaking 2-3ft normal sizes? or 2-3ft where 3ft actually means 6? I can tell you after my session tonight that if you have the hellrazor in a waist to chest high wave that is bowling and has some punch to it than you can go bezerk, never felt a board feel so at home in such a variety of conditions. Will give more up later, must go stuff my face to regain energy to do it all again tomorrow.

Current Quiver: 5'6 FST Spitfire
Next Board: 5'11 FST Hellrazor
I'm thinking stomach to shoulder high really, and not so much bowly. Maybe bowly stomach high, but any bigger with any punch and my CBD goes mental. I'm looking for something for days where it doesn't all line up and you need something to connect sections and deal with bumps and fat sections a bit easier but that is still going to surf like a shortboard. The quad option would be helpful too. My Sub Scorcher is up for sale, and the Spitfire might end up that way too.
I'm thinking Sweet Potato for thigh to stomach high, the CBD for anything chesthigh with good shape, or overhead regardless of shape, and then I need something to fill the gap between the two. As I said I want to stay as close to a shortboard as possible. The HellRazor looks the part, but I'm not sure if it's going to be too thin and rockered and struggle in the same ways as my CBD.
How's the volume for you also? Baring in mind I'm around 170lbs, plus wetsuit...
6'0" - 77kg - 170lbs
502R FPT - DL front DS rears
506D RVG - Soar Powerbase DL
600Q FTJ/CBD - Soar Powerbase DL
604R FFE - Soar Powerbase DL
Volume floats me perfectly. Granted I am 160 and in boardies 365 days of the year so you will no doubt have some weight on me. Also I dont know what the waves you are surfing are like, and everyone judges waves differently so that comes into play as well.
From what you said your plan is to have the SP for ankle to stomach and the CBD for shoulder and above than I would say just keep the spit and there you go. If you want something more on the shortboard side of things than maybe go with a Hellfire. Its not that the HZ wouldn't work in those conditions, as long as there is some push and you hit the flat section with speed most of the time the HZ will go right over it, and this is as a thruster, Im sure with a quad it would go even better in fat waves. But for what you are looking for I feel like you would get more out of the HF than the HZ. If you would only be using the board up to shoulder high than the HZ would never get a chance to really shine since I feel like as much as the board is at home in chest to shoulder it really comes into its own when its head high +. The amount of speed you get off the drop alone on a head high wave on the HZ is mental, can project right off the bottom and into the lip.
So if you want something to just fill the gap than sell the Sub and keep the spit, if you are looking for something to fill the gap but retain shortboard aspects about it than go with the Hellfire. and If you want a board that will work for the somewhat average days and really blow you mind when its good than go for the HZ. sure it might cut into time spent on the CBD but hey mixing it up is good, riding different shapes makes you a more versatile surfer so why not.
I have had my HZ for about a month now and I have surfed it everyday, even at max high tide when the waves were hardly even breaking and I still had fun, sure the Spitfire might have gone better but brand new boards always get priority. I surfed a long right point yesterday that has been deemed as a "longboard wave" by the majority of the town and on the inside once the wave got a bit smaller I was still doing full on wrapping roundhouses in the pocket on waist to chest high "longboard waves".
So yea, food for thought. Hope this helps a bit.

I did think about the HF but it's basically the same dims as my SR and I don't really want to be on anything so short else I'd just ride the SR or SF. If I went up to the 510 HF it's going to be a lot of board for me and I wanted to stay in the 19.25" max range for width.
I think you're right about the HZ potentially being limited in the conditions I'm looking to use it in.
My CBD flies through flats if it has speed coming into them, but I'm looking for something that's relaxed enough in the rocker with enough volume to get up and go on a flatter section and then still surf like a shortboard when a good section lines up. The HZ is very close I reckon, but I'd probably be looking at a slight bit more thickness through the middle, a little wider in the tail block and a tiny reduction in the entry rocker to get it to what I'm after. As has been mentioned, the HZ can basically replace your shortboard, maybe replacing your groveller is a lot to ask.
If you get to try it as a quad in higher tide, chest high, afternoon Santa Teresa as the onshore dies down I reckon that's going to get as close to home as possible there.
We got a dodgy surf report so the predicted 3-4 foot ended up more like 1.5 to 2.5 foot so my demo day/s didn't work out to plan. In saying that though I can say the HZ still goes pretty well in the smaller stuff, keep in mind this was a clean, little hollow beach break with medium punch.
The board felt great, loved the width for stability and speed, loved the sensitivity of the tail, take off's were super smooth with heaps of rocker, which is what I am chasing from riding a 5'6" Spitfire BUT (sorry for the but) I think for me the board is probably a bit too refined for the regular conditions we get here on the Sunshine Coast, Qld). Plus when it is good, it can deteriorate half way through the session more often than not pretty quick. I don't think it would be a daily driver for me but that's what I am chasing at the moment. If I lived on the Gold Coast, Qld and surfed Duranbah or TOS often, this would be the board for me.
So for me I'm going to invest some more time in a 5'8" Hellfire, I just think I will get more bang for my buck. I like my Spitfire and works well in most conditions here but I just want that little bit more when the surf pumps and is 4-6 foot and hollow but still be able to fill the shoes of the Spitfire when it's not so pumping (especially if it is half way through a session).
Also, size wise I felt like the 5'11" was a bit big for me (I'm 5'9", 165, warm water, 2mm wettie), not sure if it was the dims or the FST, which I haven't used before, it is definitely heavier than the RapidFire construction. If I get a chance I think I will try a 5'9" HZ just to make sure, will make an update if I do.
Hey Chito, thanks for your great reviews so far, do you think I can grab your email to get your feedback on your 5'6" Spitfire vs 5'8" Hellfire? Or have you posted something like that somewhere else?
5'9"/176cm - 75kgs/165lbs - Intermediate - 5'8" Hellfire: SA3 thruster - 5'3" Baked Potato: Elevons quad - 5'4" Potatonator ???
Sorry, prjwebb, the HZ handles the chop well, we had some strong wind roughing up the wave face and it didn't seem to phase the board, maybe the weight of the FST helps for that.
From what you are looking for I'd say the Hellfire might be what you are after to fill your quiver gap. I think I will sell my Spitfire and just go the Potato and Hellfire as my quiver, too many boards seem to mess with my head and feet : )
5'9"/176cm - 75kgs/165lbs - Intermediate - 5'8" Hellfire: SA3 thruster - 5'3" Baked Potato: Elevons quad - 5'4" Potatonator ???
Never expected today to take the horrible turn that it did. First wave and I ended up with a snapped Hellrazor, literally happened like 20 minutes ago. Its high tide and 3 foot, really have no explanation for how or what happened, and no this is not going to turn into a campaign to ruin FW and their name. I still trust in their product and know that it surpasses the industry standard, however, this break I really have no explanation for. I repair surfboard every day so I know the in's and outs of the tech used in these boards, I know what methods to take to avoid serious damage to the surfboard. And when it comes to surfboard maintenance I am about as anal as it gets. Every month I strip the wax off my board, rub it down with a cloth and than go over it with some rubbing alcohol on a rag to get it spotless, when its in that stage I look it over thoroughly for any dings or compression marks where dings may form later to take care of them before they become a bigger issue. Today is the 27th of may, I got my board on the 25th of april, exactly a month and 2 days ago. Literally 2 days ago I took all the wax off and did the procedure mentioned above, there was not a single crack or ding on the board, just the usual pressure marks here and there from my feet and other things, nothing really worth worrying about. Since than I have surfed it at a long mushy right hand point for the last 2 days, it never got over head high and the wave is of 0 consequence ( think Lowers). I took it out today at 8 am, 1 hour after high tide in waves that were waist to shoulder, First wave I took off pumped down the line and it closed out, jumped off the back and when I went to collect my board what I got at the end of my leash was only half of it. Im not going to lie about how I feel, Im F**king pissed off to have worked all summer saving money and coordinating the purchase and shipping of the board to get it here to have it last me a month and 2 days. also the fact that I live in the middle of nowhere really does not help when it comes to customer service so I have no clue if I will be able to get anything done about it, for now Im back to just having my Spitfire which hopefully does not follow suit and well high season is over so no chance of buying another board until at least this time next year.
I would fix it if it were not for the fact that the break is directly in the middle of the board, not even where my front foot goes or anything and it would totally ruin the feel of it, also the break is really violent with a large section where the glass detached from the foam and there are multiple buckles around the actual break so it would be a lot of work and in the end would not be anything close to what the board was before.
I don't really know if there is anything that can be done in the situation that I am in due to my location but if there is I would be very grateful, with no buckles, cracks or soft spots on the board prior to the actual break I really have no explanation for it. I want to say it was faulty but that takes the whole thing into a grey area that I would rather avoid. I do not intend to point fingers and make accusations here so if that is how some may read this I urge you to view this in a different light, the shape itself was magic. All my friends as well as myself can attest to how much better the board was making me surf in just the short period of time I had it and hopefully someday sooner rather than later I can have another 5'11 FST HZ under my arm. I recommend the board to everyone and I hope my personal experience in this case does not makes others view of the product falter, I have been riding FW for the last 5 years and this is the first time I have ever broken one, sure it was the last thing I ever expected to happen to this particular board but shit happens. Just have to deal with it.

That's a crap situation Chito. I'd shoot Chris a mail if I were you. Fingers crossed you can get it looked at or something.
What usually happens after the board is looked at? I know sometimes a free repair will be done but I really could care less about getting it fixed since the location of the break is directly in the middle of the board and it would throw the whole thing off balance and ruin the flex. Might as well be surfing a piece of drywall.

In Sothern California you would expect there would very few Monarch, and you would be right. However my wife bought a small plant with small attractive red and yellow flowers about 2 years ago, you guessed it, a milkweed. Surprized to see a couple beefy colorful caterpillers devouring the plant a couple months later and some research revealed monarch catippilars. I know nothing about monarchs, except for the infamous illustration of he caterpiller on Ortho insecticide, but found them very facinating. Southern California could use some attractive widlife (its full of fuzzy brown animals) so I watched as the next year I had a brood (flock? Swarm? Platoon?) of more catipillers. This has quickly spiralled out of control as I now have five potted milkweeds, and may have to buy more (the little suckers eat more than a teenager on summer vacation). It seems there are so few milkweed that the monarch release more than a few eggs on the plants.
I finally was able to grab about five "cats" as they were running (squirmming? galloping? Girating?) off to make preperation to be a butterfly (note-to-self...buy more plants). They should hatch (explode? birth? Enter?) early November, then I guess they migrate. If you see any Monarchs with a California tan, say hi for me.

Enterprising creativity
Enterprise: from entreprendre to undertake, a project or undertaking that is especially difficult, complicated, or risky; readiness to engage in daring or difficult action; initiative; a unit of economic organization or activity; a systematic purposeful activity.
As we have discussed in previous posts about the creative economy and creative communities, at the center of these phenomena lie partnerships between enterprise and creativity, or at least creative and entrepreneurial agents. Such partnerships are also connections between the work we do and the people we are. Many entrepreneurs are highly creative people and many creatives people are also enterprising. That is, both groups take into their own hands (undertake) work they see in need of completion. These people see needs many of us do not; they are also compelled to jump into these voids, in a spirit of true creativity, in order to meet such needs. They spark conversations with their risk taking, and in doing so, open up new conversations about how we should think and be together. Some are driven by the imagination of individuals, others by familial bonds, but all by a deep passionate commitment to making a part of the world just a little more livable for all of us.
In these late modern times, we are so concerned with the economic dimensions of society that we see entrepreneurial activity in terms of start-up businesses and industrial clusters. Indeed, it does not take much to see all the entrepreneurial sprouts in green technology in Fort Collins. All of them innovative ideas driven by pressing social and economic needs, both here and abroad. These creative enterprises (yes, creative, because they are bringing to life new forms) are highly vulnerable and like most creative enterprises and entrepreneurs of old, dependent on benefactors and sponsors for their continuing production. To keep their creative and economic fires burning, they organize in clusters such as RMI2, Clean Tech, and Bio.
Artists also, no matter of what stripe, seek the same cluster of familiarity in order to support each other in their fragile early careers as we have discussed in terms of the diverse artist groups and collectives that exist in Northern Colorado. For example, in a small arcade on Oak Street, near the Taj Mahal, a new gallery called Leap of Faith Fine Art Gallery features a diverse group of upcoming artists, offering them a chance to display their work for low fees. There is local photography by Mike Murphy, Paul Weber and James Leveillee; original paintings from David Fedeli, Dave Reiter, Don Brown, Bereniche Aguiar and Connie Uroze; as well as ceramic sculpture from Don Campbell, alabaster by Karin Troendle and hand crafted oil candles by Lady D. My son fell in love with a river scene coffee table by Robert Franklin while the work of Georgia Rowswell inspired me. Stop by and check out their work! Leap of Faith is currently running a 'people's choice' contest with different works of art until the end of June. Each artist in the contest submits a piece for $5 and then the public votes on their choice. The winner is awarded the pot of submissions! These contests are held every 2 months, so if you would like to enter, contact the folks at Leap of Faith at 970.493.LEAP or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Finally, there is perhaps a quintessential meeting of enterprising creativity at the French Nest Market, held in the Civic Center Park from 9am to 3 pm every second Saturday between July and October (July 11th, August 8th, September 12th, and October 10th). It's the allure of Paris in the springtime transported to Northern Colorado, featuring an open-air vintage, antique, and artisan market. As Alissa Bush, co-owner puts it, "It's a destination. A place where you can spend the entire morning; a little shopping, a little eating…." So, if you are interested in vintage, antique, new, unique, funky, homemade, handmade, or otherwise made goods and if you're local, eco-friendly, and/or ultra-hip, the French Nest Open-Air Market may be just the place for you! The French Nest group of entrepreneurs will take care of the enterprise part so you can do the creative part and get your work known in Northern Colorado! For more information, email email@example.com.
I hope to see you there!
With thanks to Bob.Fornal and tanakawho for their wonderful images
Here's to enterprising creativity in everyday life!

SAN FRANCISCO – Today the Bay Area Air Quality Management District issued the ninth Spare the Air Alert for smog in 2012.
Air quality in the Bay Area is forecast to be unhealthy Sunday, Sept. 29. There is no free transit and there is no wood burning ban in place. The Air District recommends that residents avoid outdoor activities during the hottest part of the day, when air quality is unhealthiest.
"This late summer hot spell means poor air quality is expected in the Bay Area," said Jack Broadbent, executive officer of the Air District. "Reducing driving alone, especially in the summer months, will go a long way towards eliminating pollution that turns to smog when we have hot weather."
Residents should avoid strenuous outdoor activity in the late afternoon when air quality is expected to be unhealthy.
Spare the Air Alerts are issued when ozone pollution is forecast to reach unhealthy levels. Ozone, or smog, can cause throat irritation, congestion, chest pain, trigger asthma, inflame the lining of the lungs and worsen bronchitis and emphysema. Long-term exposure to ozone can reduce lung function. Ozone pollution is particularly harmful for young children, seniors and those with respiratory and heart conditions. When a Spare the Air Alert is issued, outdoor exercise should be done only in the early morning hours when ozone concentrations are lower.
Smog is formed when volatile organic compounds and nitrogen oxides from motor vehicle exhaust, gasoline vapors, industrial emissions and household chemicals combine with oxygen in the presence of heat and sunlight.
Residents can help Spare the Air by carpooling, taking transit, switching to an electric vehicle, biking or walking. Visit sparetheair.org or 511.org for more information about commute alternatives.
Residents can check for Spare the Air Alerts by:
- Visiting sparetheair.org
- Calling the toll-free hotline 1-800-HELPAIR (435-7247)
- Signing up for email AirAlerts at sparetheair.org
- Downloading the Spare the Air iPhone or Android app
- Connecting with Spare the Air on Facebook, Google+ or Twitter - follow the hashtag #staalert on Twitter to get Spare the Air Alerts
The Bay Area Air Quality Management District (www.baaqmd.gov) is the regional agency responsible for protecting air quality in the nine-county Bay Area. For more information about Spare the Air, visit www.sparetheair.org.

Country Fest has been around more than a century and a number of changes have occurred through the years. But one feature that has come around again is showcasing local, and often undiscovered, talent.
With the help of NorthRidge Foursquare Church, local performers can take the stage reminiscent of days-gone-by, but only after fulfilling the modern entry requirement of a video audition.
Since Country Fest is a family-oriented event, all acts must be of a PG-13 nature, and organizers are looking for all kinds of talent.
Potential contestants are invited to check out the Ridge Meadows Got Talent web page on Facebook at www.facebook.com/RMGotTalent for full details.
Those interested must create a video of their talent, and include a brief bio, then either send the video by link or email to email@example.com and wait to see who is chosen to hit the stage at Country Fest.
Videos must be received by July 20 to be considered in the judging and contestants will be divided into two groups – ages 10 to 18 and ages 19 and older.
All videos will be reviewed by NorthRidge's talent show team and narrowed down to the 10 finalists in each age category.
Finalists will be notified by email and scheduled for an appearance in the third annual talent show on July 29 on the mainstage at Country Fest.
"We have assisted the organizers of Country Fest in any way they required our services," said Peggy Stoltz of NorthRidge who is coordinating this year's talent event. "We are happy to have been asked to participate again this year."
More than just fame and the chance to perform, first, second, and third place winners in both age categories will be given prizes donated from local churches and businesses.
Talent judges include past contestants on Canadian Idol: Matt Kennedy and Sam Romijn, who will also perform the evening of the talent show.
Stoltz said if performing on video or on stage isn't everyone's thing, then consider coming down to cheer on those who take the plunge at Country Fest from approximately 3:45 to 6 p.m. on Sunday, July 29.
Country Fest will be at the Albion Fairgrounds both July 28 and 29. Admission is free. Parking is $2 a day.

This parade was just wonderful, this is our 13th year for this parade and it always a delight to see all the bands, children and seeing Santa and Mrs. Claus. Thank you Hatboro you are a wonderful town.

I am calling a web service asynchronously (task executors), but I cannot figure out how to handle the soap fault messages by using SI.
I want to catch the faults and wrap them so that the faults get treated like every other "hit" when they reach the aggregator that aggregates the results. Like so:
request > ws-outbound gateway > catch fault and wrap > aggregator > result page (shows results and summary of errors)
I have tried with a fault-message-resolver that wraps the error messages and sends them to the error queue, but I am unable to transfer headers like correlationId from the initial request. The aggregator needs the headers to be able to correlate properly.
How can I intercept the faults and transfer the message headers from the initial request?

A protester wears a t shirt with an image of a fishing boat from Hong Kong confronting Japanese coast guard boats off the Sankaku or Diaoyu Islands, during a protest outside the U.S. Consulate in Hong Kong June 17, 2013, against the United States bias on the island disputes. U.S. President Barack Obama urged his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, to "de-escalate" a contentious territorial dispute with Japan and deal with the matter through diplomatic channels, Obama's national security adviser said earlier.

The gate at Tumalo Falls was closed Saturday for the season, according to the Deschutes National Forest.
The road beyond the gate is closed to motorized traffic, although visitors can continue to recreate in the area on foot (or on skis or snowshoes). Visitors are asked not to park in front of the gate once it is closed.
The closure occurs each year and is based on weather conditions, according to the Deschutes National Forest. More snow is expected in the area this weekend.
For more information, call the Bend-Fort Rock Ranger District at 541-383-4000.
