This week, Inside AAA features Joslyn Osten. She is AAA's Marketing and Communications Manager.
What is your favorite on-the-job task?
My favorite on-the-job task is collaborating with my colleagues to help strategize the marketing and communication plans of an upcoming project or task. There is a wide variety of communications that go out to members and the public in general, so each project allows for new opportunities.
What is the most rewarding on-the-job moment?
The most rewarding on-the-job moment is working with members to highlight their activities in Members in the News. From op-ed pieces to global headlines, AAA members span the gamut in the public news realm.
What is the most bizarre object in your office?
That would most likely be my "Love Your Liver" magnet. It's from an organ and tissue donation organization. It reminds me that even when I'm having a particularly hectic or stressful moment, that there are so many people facing larger and more serious challenges.
What is your favorite activity outside of work?
I love going on adventures with my family. Some adventures are planned while others are just a spur of the moment. Whether it's a picnic at a park, a local concert or a trip to a far distant land, a memory is always in the making.

Barack Obama Will Visit Puerto Rico, Fortuño Says
For the first time in thirty-five years a sitting U.S. President will step foot in Puerto Rico.
President Barack Obama has accepted an invitation to visit Puerto Rico next month, a trip that would make him the first sitting president to come to the U.S. Commonwealth in decades, the island's governor said Tuesday.
The president, who campaigned in Puerto Rico for the Democratic primary, will visit the island June 14, Gov. Luis Fortuño said, without disclosing details of his itinerary.
"With his visit, the president makes good on the promise he made during the presidential primaries in 2008 that he would return to Puerto Rico as president," Fortuno said in a statement.
The governor's office described the Obama trip as the "the first official presidential visit" since December 1961, when President John F. Kennedy stopped on the island to a formal welcome on his way to Venezuela. But that was not the last time a U.S. president set foot in the territory: President Gerald Ford hosted an economic summit in Puerto Rico in June 1976.
Pedro Pierluisi, the island's nonvoting representative in Congress, said he expects Obama will discuss a recent White House report on the options for changing Puerto Rico's formal relationship to the U.S. mainland. The president may also visit projects that have benefited from the administration's stimulus spending to aid the economy.
Puerto Rico is home to nearly 4 million U.S. citizens but its residents cannot vote in the general presidential election, only in the primaries.
Andres W. López, a member of the Democratic National Committee from the island, said the president's visit may also help him with Puerto Ricans on the mainland, particularly in South Florida, which is home to some 725,000 people of Puerto Rican descent and an important battleground state in the 2012 election.
"I am certain that the 4 million Puerto Ricans who live on the mainland will be bursting with a real sense of 'orgullo Boricua' (Puerto Rican pride) when they see the respect that President Obama has shown to Puerto Rico," López said.

EEOC Settles Suit for Long-Time NFL Trainer Fired Because of Epilepsy
ST. LOUIS -- The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) today announced the settlement of a disability discrimination lawsuit against the St. Louis Rams, the city's National Football League (NFL) team, for $134,000 and important remedial relief on behalf of Ron DuBuque, a long-term employee with a seizure disorder.
Under the terms of the consent decree, filed today for approval in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri (EEOC and DuBuque v. The St. Louis Rams Partnership, The Rams Football Company, Inc. and ITB Football Company, L.L.C., doing business as The St. Louis Rams, 4:08-CV-01503-TIA), the Rams will pay a total of $134,000 to settle the case – including emotional distress damages of $100,000 and a $34,000 contract in which DuBuque will be engaged as a Rehabilitation Specialist for two years. The decree also requires the team to provide training on the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) to managers and supervisors of the Rams.
"As this case and many others show, disability does not mean inability," said EEOC Acting Chairman Stuart J. Ishimaru. "All employers should make workplace decisions based on merit and qualifications to do the job, rather than on myths, fears, or stereotypes associated with a person's disability."
DuBuque, who had been an assistant trainer with the team for 11 years before he was fired, had epilepsy during his entire employment. DuBuque and the EEOC alleged that he had successfully performed his job until the Rams' management, in June 2006, claimed he was a medical liability and posed a threat to his own safety and that of coworkers. DuBuque was diagnosed with trauma-induced epilepsy in 1984, more than a decade before working for the Rams.
"We are pleased that Ron DuBuque and the EEOC were able to reach an agreement with the Rams that will enable us to further Congress' intention that persons with disabilities be treated as the valuable employees they are," said Regional Attorney Barbara A. Seely of the EEOC's St. Louis District Office. "The St. Louis Rams, one of the most well-known and prestigious employers in our city, have a legal obligation under the ADA to provide a workplace free from disability discrimination."
The EEOC enforces federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination. Further information about the Commission is available on its web site at www.eeoc.gov.

World Series of Fighting 2: Arlovski vs. Johnson — The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly
Special thanks to Oliver Chan and photographer Rick Albrecht for the photos.
If there's one thing that I took away from last night's World Series of Fighting card, it was that even a high profile promotion that puts on a night of entertaining fights is going to encounter some hiccups during its second event. Join us as we relive the highs and lows from WSoF 2.
The Good:
Anthony Johnson looked legitimate at heavyweight: Heading into last night's main event, a lot was riding on Anthony "Rumble" Johnson actually fighting like a true heavyweight and not just looking like one. With all of the focus from fans and pundits alike on the "former UFC welterweight" issue, a poor showing from Johnson could have caused many fans to dismiss WSoF as an organization of squash matches and freak show fights. Fortunately for the organization, last night Rumble proved that his fight against Andrei Arlovski didn't deserve freak show status. Johnson was too quick for Arlovski early on, and almost finished the fight before the end of the first round. He may have gassed out early – that'll happen when you take a knee to the juevos during your first fight as a heavyweight – but at least he demonstrated that he's capable of being a competent heavyweight if Ray Sefo needs him to be one again.Read More DIGG THIS

Anola Fellowship Chapel (Anola, Manitoba, Canada)
Anola Fellowship Chapel, a member of the Evangelical Mennonite Conference, began as an outreach of Blumenort Evangelical Mennonite Church. Vacation Bible School was held in Anola, Manitoba from 1958 to 1961, and in 1961 a decision was made to hold Sunday School.
In 1965 church services began to be held on a monthly and then on a twice-monthly basis, with a building erected on the purchased site of the community's former school. Sunday School teachers and ministers continued to visit and serve on a regular basis.
In 1977, David Friesen began serving as Anola Fellowship Chapel's pastor and in 1979 the congregation was granted autonomy with nine charter members. Friesen served until 1985. Several pastors then served on an interim basis: Frank D. Reimer (1986), Harry Neufeld (1986-87), and John K. Reimer (1987-88). In 1988 John (Jack) and Brenda Cosens began serving as Anola's resident pastoral couple (with a break of two years). Cosens was a bivocational minister-carpenter.
In 1985 there were 25 members; in 1995, 30; in 2012, 44. The 2012 yearbook states that the average attendance was 66, though one leader said in 2013 that the average attendance, apart from the summer months, was about 100. The congregation's highest attendance has been about 120.
Anola Fellowship Chapel intentionally serves as a community evangelical church, reaching out to people of a wide range of church and cultural backgrounds. The congregation's building has gone through renovation and extension, most recently in 2000.

The Desk Project is the first-ever fundraiser for Kids of Kathmandu, a non-profit group that supports orphaned children in Nepal. Eleven New York-based architects and designers created one-of-a-kind childrens' desks, currently available for auction. If they reach their goal, each desk sold will support a child for one year.
Kids of Kathmandu was founded by Brooklyn-based furniture maker Andrew Raible and photographer Jami Saunders, who spent last summer volunteering at an orphanage in Nepal. With the hope of providing continued support to the children they cared for, the couple started a non-profit organization that works with designers and artists to raise money. Desks are up for auction online — bids close on May 12 at 11:45 pm.

First off I'd like to thank Adam Kryder for the editing here. Adam and I have been working on a film together for many months now, and he has encouraged me to learn all things video. You can see what we are up to on our new website... http://www.rawwaterproductions.com/.
Also have to thank Davie McPhail (he doesn't know me but I'm a huge fan) for not only influencing my tying, but also inspiring me to use my photo gear to shoot some vids. If you've never browsed his youtube channel, you need to.
Below are instructions for a low water steelhead/salmon fly that I made up one late night at the bench, and it became the day saver on one of the slower winter sessions of the year. I hope you enjoy, and feel free to comment if you'd like more info on the fly, or have suggestions on other videos you'd like to see.
Next time I'll get back on track and finish off the tube fly tutorial...

A day after the expiration of Facebook's initial lock-up period, one analyst said the stock is "very close to being extremely attractive," despite plunging roughly 50 percent since its $38 offering price in May.
The social network's stock — already under intense selling pressure — inaugurated its post-lockup period by plunging to a new all-time low on heavy volume. Some see the rout as overdone, however.
"We believe that the lock-ups caused a bit of a sell-off," said Rick Summer, an analyst at Morningstar, in what he described as somewhat of a self-fulfilling prophesy.

Conference Invitation
Dear Colleagues:
On November 18, 2008, The Franklin H. Williams Judicial Commission on Minorities will host a conference on "Innovative Strategies to Nullify Gang Violence in Our Communities"at the Judicial Institute, 84 North Broadway, White Plains, New York on the campus of Pace University School of Law.
Our keynote speaker is Dr. David Brotherton, Chair of the Sociology Department from John Jay College of Criminal Justice. Bob DeSena, President of the Council for Unity will present an overview of his program and the Riverhead Comprehensive Community Model. In addition, there will be a presentation by District Attorneys from various counties in New York State and breakout sessions where you can discuss particular areas of interest regarding gang activities and solutions in Schools, Corrections, Law Enforcement and Community involvement.
As gang violence threatens the lives and safety of young people in our communities, we are hoping that you will be able to join us at this solution based conference. Also attending will be judges, government agency representatives, school officials and community groups. If we are ever going to stop the intimidation of our citizens by gangs, this problem must be addressed by all the leaders in the community.
We invite you to join us in this dialogue and the development of recommendations to curb Gang Violence in Our Communities.
Hon. Lewis L. Douglass, Chair

Dr. Sima Samar, who had just traveled from Afghanistan, testified before two Subcommittees of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee chaired by Senators Barbara Boxer and Bob Casey this week and warned that Afghan women must be included in the reconciliation and reintegration process. She stated that the "reconciliation and reintegration cannot be successful without women's rights and human rights being guaranteed and women being included in all aspects of the rebuilding of Afghanistan. The process must be transparent in order to gain the public support of the Afghan people."
The Feminist Majority Foundation has initiated a campaign to underscore this demand. "We are alarmed the Afghan government did not include any women at the recent London conference on reconciliation," said Eleanor Smeal, President of the Feminist Majority Foundation.
Dr. Samar and Rachel Reid of Human Rights Watch both emphasized that Afghan women's rights and lives can not be traded away in any "peace" process.
The FMF applauded Senator Boxer's summarizing of the main points of the hearing: for reconciliation to succeed there must be "A commitment that the recently promulgated Afghan Violence Against Women Act will be enforced and that women would be guaranteed access to education, health care, employment, and political participation as well as a guarantee to constitutional rights." Boxer emphasized that "this is the moment" - the critical time - for women-s voices to be heard" as they develop the reconciliation/reintegration process.
"We are very encouraged," said Smeal that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton released right before the hearing an updated Afghanistan and Pakistan Regional Stabilization Strategy. The updated strategy includes "initiatives focused on women's security, women's leadership in the public and private sector; women's access to judicial institutions, education, and health services" as well as employment. The strategy "recognizes women as agents of change and their importance to our civilian stabilization plan."
Melanne Verveer, U.S. Ambassador-at-Large for Global Women's Issues, who presented strong testimony before the subcommittees on the importance of Afghan women and girls, said, "It is a simple fact that no country can get ahead if half of its population is left behind." Moreover she emphasized that "violence against women and girls in Afghanistan cannot be explained away as cultural or private; it is criminal and must be addressed as such."
Rachel Reid, a researcher from Human Rights Watch, who has lived in Afghanistan for the past three years, had also traveled from Afghanistan for the hearing. She presented a report to the subcommittee that included results of a series of interviews with Afghan women in Kabul and in districts where insurgents are strong. She concluded the interviews revealed that Afghan women want peace but "are concerned about the potential consequences of deals with insurgents for their basic rights
even those who are barely able to exercise these rights today." "Most women describe what could be considered 'non-negotiables'. These include access to education access to health care, freedom to work; freedom to participate in political life; and maintaining the constitutional protection of these rights. Many of the women expressed frustration that there is little transparency about the government's reintegration and reconciliation plans. They are well aware that initiatives and policies are currently being drawn up that will have enormous impact on them, but they have not been kept informed, let alone consulted."

Mignonne: Furniture Renovation & More
This past weekend we had a chance to check out Mignonne's new location in Berkeley. The old spot was near our house and with its great selection of home goods, gifts, and furnture it quickly became one of our favorite stores. We were sad to see it move, but with its increased inventory of renovated furniture it makes perfect sense. Johnelle Mancha, the owner of the shop, took some time to show us around.
The store is full of wonderful pieces of furniture that were given a second chance.
As Johnelle's friend described to us, "the furniture is her blank canvas". Johnelle spends many hours in the back of the store renovating amazing finds that have good bones and interesting features. Each one inspires her differently and they all have their own character. We admire how much love and care goes into every single one of her pieces. Many of them go through major repairs, painting and reupholstery. They are all named and stamped during the remodel. The end results are truly beautiful.
Johnelle also does a lot of custom orders. If you have any furniture that is somewhat outdated or/and needs some renovation you should definitely contact Mignonne. Don't throw it away. Refinishing old furniture is not only a green option for decorating your home, but it is also much more original. Their prices are very reasonable and they are fast with their turn around times. Whatever your style might be and if you are just looking for something different for your home, Mignonne doesn't disappoint.
With its focus changing towards furniture Mignonne carries less gifts and art. They still have a great collection of vintage finds, great porcelain sets, interesting art by local artists, and fragrant candles and soaps.

Fall 2012 Ad Campaign
I can only save my ideas for Halloween, which in fact is creeping up on us.
At least, his campaign for Louis Vuitton this fall did not entail a trip to Wonderland, only a ticket on the Orient Express. Quite inspiring.
Note: Most of you fashionistas probably think this campaign is old hat, having seen the Fall runway shows back in the spring. I'm just an ostrich whose head has been buried in the sand for months.

Presenter, Interviewer, Reporter
The career of David Dimbleby, alongside that of his younger brother Jonathan,
has ensured that the Dimbleby dynasty has dominated television current affairs
in Britain for more than half a century. Blessed with the gravitas, journalistic
integrity and consummate professionalism that characterised his father, the
broadcasting giant Richard Dimbleby, he has assumed a similar status as the
BBC's most trusted anchor, presiding over election coverage, state occasions and
political analysis with the same invincible authority.
Born 28 October 1938, he was editor of the student magazine Isis at Oxford,
and joined BBC Bristol after graduating. By 1962 he was working on network news
programmes, and at the end of the decade found himself at the centre of an
unexpected controversy for his comments, made in the context of a visit to
Britain by then US President Richard Nixon, about the less than scrupulous
honesty of political press secretaries. It was a view that would hardly raise
eyebrows in today's spin-doctored politics, but which nevertheless won Dimbleby
a summons to explain himself to the BBC's director of television.
In 1971, he was caught up in another storm following the broadcast of the
documentary 'Yesterday's Men' (tx. 17/6/1971), in the 24 Hours strand (BBC,
1965-72), which satirised a Labour Party defeated in the previous year's general
election and featured an interview with Harold Wilson in which Dimbleby
questioned the ex-prime minister on the profits of his memoirs. Following
objections from Wilson, cuts were made, but the programme still drew strong
charges of anti-Labour bias (the BBC's defence was not helped by the appearance,
in the same slot the following evening, of a considerably friendlier analysis of
the Conservatives, entitled 'Mr Heath's Quiet Revolution'). Since then, Dimbleby
has been a paragon of impartiality, to the extent that even friends and close
colleagues have declared themselves entirely unsure which political party, if
any, might win his vote.
In November 1974 he took over the chair of the BBC's flagship current affairs
show, Panorama (1953-), that had for a decade been occupied by his father. 1979
saw Dimbleby garnering awards for The White Tribe of Africa, a four-part history
of South Africa's Afrikaans community and the rise of Apartheid, while
furthering his reputation as a heavyweight interviewer with the eight-part
Person to Person, in which he interviewed a series of key cultural and political
figures, including Lord Denning, Arthur Scargill, Peter Hall and Mary Whitehouse. The same year saw him co-presenting, with Robin Day, the BBC's general election night coverage.
He has been the BBC's anchor for every British general election since - 2005
was his seventh - as well as most local, European and US presidential elections.
Such occasions stretch the machinery of live television to its limits, with many
hours of airtime and feeds from cameras and reporters scattered across hundreds
of geographically diverse constituencies, and Dimbleby's unflappable composure
is a crucial asset - and a neat counterpoint to the boyish excitability of Peter
As well as the other political specials that fall into his orbit - budget
specials, party conferences - he has become, like his father, the presenter of
choice for state occasions: the state opening of parliament, Trooping the
Colour, Remembrance events at the Cenotaph. He presided over the funeral of
Diana, Princess of Wales, in 1997 (second only to the 1966 World Cup Final in
the list of the most-watched broadcasts in British television history), and
followed that with the Queen Mother's funeral in 2002; he also hosted the
Millennium celebrations, the somewhat shambolic nature of which was no fault of
his. His peerless gravitas and soothing, dignified voice are among the reasons
why the nation continues to turn to the BBC at such times.
Meanwhile, he combined presenting Panorama with similar duties on This Week
Next Week (1984-88). In 1988 he presented the seven-part documentary An Ocean
Apart, examining the history of Anglo-American relations. 1999's Rebellion! took
a similarly forensic approach to the history of Britain's more troubled relations with Rhodesia/Zimbabwe. In 1994 he took over the chair of Question Time (1979-) from Peter Sissons.
Dimbleby has been a loyal Corporation man for more than 40 years (while his
brother has largely shadowed him on ITV - election nights have for some time
offered viewers a choice of Dimblebys), but although he is unchallenged as the
political presenter's presenter, he has so far failed to ascend to the BBC's upper echelons. In 1987 he lost out to Michael Checkland in the race to replace Alistair Milne as Director General, and was beaten to the chairmanship by Gavyn Davies in 2001. He has reason to be grateful for the latter defeat, although he might have presented a less easy target for New Labour's attack on the Corporation in the wake of the Hutton report.
In 2005, he returned to the authored documentary format with an ambitious six-part history of inspirational effect of the British landscape on the country's artists, A Picture of Britain.

A Comment Milestone!
Recently, I realized that I have received 1,000 comments since this little blog was started way back in September 2003. Has it really been that long!? Some of the comments are trackbacks, but overall, it's pretty amazing to think about. Only about 30% of them are people calling me a moron, which is an excellent ratio and well above what I expected. In all seriousness, though, I love getting feedback, and it is a lot of fun to debate techniques and ideas, so please be sure to leave...

SQL is a set-based language, and often we wish to pass sets of data as a parameter to a stored procedure. For example, you might wish to pass a set of Customers to an invoice generating stored procedure, or a set of employees for which you'd like to calculate a particular bonus. SQL Server already has everything you need to do this, and you don't need CSV or XML strings. read more...

Sometimes, it appears that a necessary solution to common SQL problems is to join a table to itself. While self-joins do indeed have their place, and can be very powerful and useful, often times there is a much easier and more efficient way to get the results you need when querying a single table.

SQL Server User-Defined Functions (UDFs) can return either a single value or virtual tables. However, sometimes we might like for a User-Defined Function to simply return more than 1 piece of information, but an entire table is more than what we need.

There's a very interesting way of handling complicated, multi-column dynamic sorts over at john-sheenan.com.
I am not sure about the efficiency of this approach, but in general dynamic sorting tends not to be very efficient anyway (unless you use dynamically-created SQL statements). Overall, it is a very clever use of RANK() and definitely worth a look.
Thanks for the great idea, John!

AB de Villiers reckons Mark Boucher can still play a key role in South Africa's upcoming Test series in England despite a freak injury that forced him into retirement.
De Villiers is preparing to keep wicket in Boucher's place during next week's first Test at The Oval after the Proteas great suffered a severe eye injury after being struck by a flying bail in the tour opener against Somerset at Taunton earlier this week.
That injury prompted the 35-year-old Boucher, whose tally of 555 dismissals in 147 Tests is a world record, to announce his international retirement and so rule him out of a three-match series where any sort of win for South Africa will see them replace England as the world number one in the five-day format.
But de Villiers, who will try to get is glovework going during a three-day game against Kent in Canterbury, south-east of London, starting Friday, said Boucher, with the cricket world wishing him well in his battle to save the sight in his left eye, would prove a powerful source of inspiration.
"He's been an idol in South African cricket for many years; he's been a rock, the guy with the guts," middle-order batsman de Villiers, who has kept in a handful of Tests during Boucher's 15-year career, said Thursday.
And the 28-year-old has particular reasons for wanting to do well in his former team-mate's place.
"He was someone who was there at the start of my career, who looked after me, took me under his wing, helped me a lot with my cricket," de Villiers explained.
Boucher an inspiration for de Villiers
AB de Villiers reckons Mark Boucher can still play a key role in South Africa's upcoming Test series in England despite a freak injury that forced him into retirement.
"I probably wouldn't be here without him. It's probably a big call but it's true -- he's done a lot for my cricket.
"So not to have him here, it's a bit of an emotional thing -- which I've sort of gotten over over the last few days. But yes, they are huge boots to fill."
Proteas vice-captain de Villiers added: "Obviously, he was, if not the best, then one of the best wicketkeepers in the world and I'm a little bit undercooked when it comes to Test cricket wicketkeeping.
"But I'm looking forward to it if the gloves come my way in the Test matches. It's a challenge I'll take with both hands.
"It would be great to win (the series) and to give it up to him.
"I think he's inspired a lot of us over the years, and the whole country as well, so it's definitely a bit of extra motivation.
"With what has happened to Mark, it's an emotional rollercoaster we've all been through."
South Africa have called Thami Tsolekile into their squad but he won't arrive in time for any match practice with the tourists before the first Test.
Meanwhile the competitive Boucher has given de Villiers a few tips on what to say to the England batsmen out in the middle.
"I do have a few things to say to some of the guys that Mark would have said, and he's passed on a few things to say," de Villiers said.
"He said 'Whatever happened to me is okay, but so long as you pass the messages on'. I said I'll do it."

Serving Utensils
Dinnerware, glassware, linens – you have everything you need for your next dinner party, but there is one important but often forgotten detail: serving utensils. From vintage to modern styles and stainless-steel to wood, we offer serving sets to match every taste and theme. Many of our sets also coordinate and complement our Pottery Barn flatware, serveware and other tabletop accessories.
Serving utensils are not just useful. They also make a statement. They make an elegant addition to your table when you entertain, especially when you place your food out on the table family-style. A typical serving set includes a spoon and fork that allows you to transfer your food from the serving platter or bowl to your plate without spilling on the tablecloth or having to use your own silverware in shared dishes. Serving forks work best with sliced meat and poultry, like turkey, ham, chicken or roast beef. For smaller foods and appetizers, choose a serving fork with smaller tines. Serving spoons are appropriate for casseroles, fruit and vegetable dishes and gravy and dressings. The fork and spoon combined can be used to serve salad and fresh greens.
When choosing between our serving sets, you want to pick something that matches the overall style of your other serveware, as well as something that is easy to clean and care for. Made from bright high-grade 18/10 stainless-steel, our Katherine Serving Set with its piped edging is casual enough for family meals yet formal enough for Thanksgiving dinner. The utensils are dishwasher-safe. Our Vintage Wood Serving Set is made from mango wood and inspired by an antique item purchased at a flea market in Napa Valley. Serve up a rustic Italian meal and pair these utensils with your favorite wine glasses.
Choose a serving set that combines acacia wood handles with 18/8 stainless-steel heads to provide you with a versatile set for any event. For a unique look or something contemporary, try a fork and spoon made from 18/8 stainless-steel with a burnt metal finish that will catch the eye of any guest and make an attractive addition to your tableware. This combination is safe enough to use in the dishwasher and durable enough to last for many years to come.
Sometimes, you need something more specific than just a serving spoon and fork. Our soup and gravy ladles are ideal for any sauces, stews, soups, gravies or dips that require dipping and serving a larger volume. If you plan to serve wine and cheese as a pre-dinner appetizer, you may want something like a set of four marble cheese knives. Each piece is carefully crafted for serving a variety of hard and soft cheeses. The knives resemble vintage pieces found in California's wine country and are made from high grade 18/8 stainless-steel and polished gray and white marble. We also offer a sets of wood and copper cheese knives that have more of an organic look.
Take care of any serving need that arises with our 6-piece serving set suitable for catering as well as serving family and holiday meals. It includes two traditional serving spoons, a fork, a gravy ladle, two slotted spoons for draining excess liquid from side dishes and a server for pie and cake. These pieces are crafted from 18/0 stainless-steel and kept best when hand washed. The set also comes with a black velvet bag for safekeeping when your utensils are not in use.

The EPA's decision on E10 versus E15 could come within days, and a national boating organization and many local boat retailers are not supporting it.
"We are very aware of the effects of ethanol fuel. Just the current 10 percent is wreaking havoc on the boat motors," said Tricia Gurr, co-owner of Marine Supply-The Boating Center in Winter Haven. "We service and sell non-ethanol gas at our 717 Sixth St., S.W., location. We recommend 100 percent non-ethanol fuel."
Gurr said that with ethanol being a cleaning agent, fuel bi-products that have attached themselves to the walls of fuel tanks get dispersed throughout the engine, causing failure.
"The manufacturers like Yamaha, Mercury and Evinrude don't want to pay for engine repairs because it's not their fault. It has nothing to do with them," said Gurr "It's a fuel issue. The customer doesn't want to pay for it because they just put gas in it. Then we are in the middle breaking the bad news to them."
The Marine Supply-The Boating Center in Winter Haven does sell non-ethanol fuel for $3.85 per gallon. Although it is not the cheapest alternative, Gurr said it is better than paying for engine repairs.
"We do so much more repairs on engines due to this ethanol problem. As long as they are allowed to still purchase non-ethanol fuel, we'll be fine, but if they do away with non-ethanol fuel, we're in trouble," she said.Read more at http://www.newschief.com/article/20100929/NEWS/9295034/1021/news01?Title=Ethanol-EPA-fuel-anger-among-local-boaters
