For New Orleans Catholic editor Peter Finney, a planned assignment to go to Rome cover his new archbishop — Archbishop Gregory M. Aymond — as he received his pallium June 29 from Pope Benedict XVI turned out to be a frustrating journey that took him only as far as Atlanta and back home again.
In his column in the July 11 issue of the Clarion Herald, newspaper of the New Orleans Archdiocese, Finney describes his frustrating experience with a generous dose of good humor.
"Fifty-six hours and three canceled airplane flights later, I had made it as far as Atlanta 400 miles away, a 7 mph pace that easily could have been matched by a B-list Kenyan runner with tender bunions," he writes.

City's ambiance is based on snow, amenities and most of all, the kindness of the locals
November 16, 2012
After last winter's stingy snow cover, Park City's top-rated ski resorts are leaving nothing to chance. Snowmaking guns and expert groomers have been working their magic on the slopes and legions of employees have been hard at work preparing to welcome what we hope will be an avalanche of visitors.
The hubbub of activity has also enveloped every restaurant, hotel and retail shop from the top of Main Street to Kimball Junction. The anticipation of both the holidays and the tourist season is palpable.
But, of course, the finishing touch on all of those well-rehearsed duties is something less tangible — hospitality. And that is something every citizen at some point in the season will likely be called on to demonstrate.
It seems as though every few months The Park Record receives at least one letter from a grateful tourist who was the recipient of a random act of kindness on the part of an employee or a local resident: a returned wallet, a helping hand in an accident, an extra moment spent reuniting a lost child with family members, or just recommendations about how to enjoy their stay.
The letters make our buttons pop with pride and inspire us to do the same. After all, most of us have traveled to unfamiliar destinations and our lasting impressions are often based not on the glitzy storefronts or even the magnificent grand ballrooms, but on simple kindnesses offered by the natives.
Yes, the ski season can mean longer lines at the grocery store and fewer parking spaces on Main Street, but each year our visitors' excitement infects us with a new appreciation for our surroundings.
Recommended Stories For You
The season is upon us and we are more than ready. Park City Mountain Resort opens today. Canyons rev up their lifts next Friday and Deer Valley is set to open Dec. 8. Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.

As reasons for missing OTAs go, this definitely tops Cary Williams and his sconces.
According to Brian Costello of the New York Post, Jets wide receiver David Nelson missed the first week of OTAs while they made sure he wasn't a public health menace.
Jets coach Rex Ryan termed it an "illness," but it was more serious than that.
During a trip to Haiti to do charity work, Nelson was bitten by a mosquito. His fever spiked to 104 degrees and had strep throat, so the team told him to clear out.
"I was quarantined," Nelson said.
He got back to work this week, though the yellow hazmat suits people wore around him probably made it hard to run routes.
"We've got a really dynamic group," Nelson said of the Jets new-look receiving corps. "We've got guys who can do a little bit of everything. We've got some short, really fast guys, some short jukey guys, some tall, athletic guys that can stretch the field. We've got some possession guys. You name it as far as receiver we have it in that room. Now, the next step is to get everybody to play at that maximum ability and keep everybody healthy."
Presumably, he was talking about knee injuries and the like.
And not malaria.

Krista Espinal, the founding chef of Malcolm's in Schenectady, who helped define the local-seasonal ethos and small-plate fare that earned a rave review from Susie Davidson Powell, was fired in recent days, just four months after Malcolm's opened. The news first appeared as a Trim Areli Stud Vince Tote Leather Camuto Navy Goldtone x8qfnWPInH.
Espinal returned my call this afternoon. She told me that after devoting much of her life to the restaurant since being hired in January, including marathon weeks and even postponing her wedding while the new venture found its footing, Malcolm's owner Nate Germain terminated her after they clashed over what she considered a minor issue. She said did not want to rehash the matter further in a public forum. She does not have immediate plans, she said, beyond caring for her fiance, who had back surgery on Tuesday.
Germain has not replied to my inquiries. More if I hear from him.
Malcolm's opened in early March. It is located at 617 Union St. Call 518-344-4599.
Prior to Malcom's, Espinal was Ric Orlando's chief lieutenant, spending a year as chef de cuisine at New World Bistro Bar in Albany. Powell said in her review of Malcolm's:
ROBERTO Light grey Handbag CAVALLI CLASS ZU0Pn
JOUEURS Black LES PETITS LES Handbag PETITS Take it all in: Krista! Kindles! Open kitchen! Farms! Should you need proof of a rising tide elevating the local dining scene, Malcolm's might be the most refreshing new arrival since Peck's Arcade kick-started Troy. This isn't just a shot in the arm for Schenectady, it's two defibrillator paddles at once.

Many consumers take the holidays as a chance to ditch the clunky old television set, the crash-prone computer or the year-old cellphone now considered outdated.
In the insatiable rush to buy the latest and greatest, it has become habit to throw away old gadgets alongside other household trash.
But think twice before you kick your next stereo system or blender to the curb. New rule changes pending for 2013 require Coloradans to recycle electronic waste separately.
A state bill, SB 12-133, co-sponsored by Rep. Don Coram, R-Montose, and signed by Gov. John Hickenlooper in April, bans landfill disposal for most electronic devices after July 1, 2013.
Commercial businesses and city governments have been prohibited from tossing e-waste since 2003. The new law simply closes the loophole that exempted houses and hotels.
Mary Beth Miles, city of Durangos sustainability coordinator, said Friday that city ordinance prohibits the disposal of electronics and household hazardous waste with garbage.
The city holds two-day electronic collections in the spring and fall for that purpose, Miles said. Nothing has been decided about fining repeat violators, she said.
To process e-waste, the city has contracted with Tulsa, Okla.-based Natural Evolution. It is one of 16 processors in the United States to pass three different environmental certifications under a third-party audit.
Unlike most countries, exporting junked electronics which contain lead and other chemicals is not explicitly illegal in the United States because it has not ratified the 1992 Basel Convention, an international treaty (other outliers include Haiti, Afghanistan, Burma and a host of African states).
The Environmental Protection Agency does require e-waste exporters to obtain the consent of importing countries, and in 2007 cracked down on the export of toxic cathode-ray tubes. But those measures havent stopped many companies from circumventing the rules anyway.
A 2008 Government Accountability Office report concluded the EPA rules were toothless and said used-electronics flow virtually unrestricted, even to countries where they can be mismanaged.
Also in 2008, Englewood-based Executive Recycling was featured on an episode of 60 Minutes. Jim Puckett, founder of watchdog group Basel Action Network, tracked shipping containers filled with computer monitors to a Chinese scrap yard, where workers dismantle e-waste for a pittance under unsafe conditions. Methods for extracting valuable metals can include open-air incinerators and acid baths, which can burn skin, raise risk of lung cancer and damage DNA.
Two top executives from Executive Recycling were indicted in September 2011 on charges of illegal export of hazardous waste. Prosecutors say Brandon Richter and Tor Olson knowingly sent about 300 containers containing more than 100,000 cathode-ray tubes overseas between 2005 and 2009, despite claiming to be a green company. Their cases are being heard by a district court in Denver.
Natural Evolution has been given the Basel Action Networks e-Steward seal of approval, Puckett said.

High 5 Healthy Kids!
I am an exercise specialist with a background in psychology and a sincere interest in childhood obesity prevention. I love working with kids and helping people discover how to live healthier active lifestyles. This website will help me to get more involved and reach more people. Serving as a resource for kids and parents this website describes my 5 step approach to childhood obesity prevention and offers support for parents and kids.
The 5 Step Process to Changing Kids' Lives
The High 5 process looks at the child as a whole and is a comprehensive health centered approach versus a weight centered approach. Through support from parents, friends, teachers etc, and the help of a team of professionals any child can succeed and start building toward a healthier way of living once the begin following the 5 steps.
High 5 Healthy Kids is not only about surrounding yourself with a team of positive support and following a stepwise approach to prevent childhood obesity but it is also a call to action. Support is essential for kids, a simple 'high 5' or pat on the back can go a long way. (This is why the High 5 part definitely needs to be on the logo)
Overweight and Obese Kids ages 5 - 18 (and their parents)
- Bright 'kid friendly' colors. Be creative. Experiment with bright colors, bold colors, primary colors etc.
- Gender neutral
- Not too cartoonish.
- Work in a high five
- No scales or measuring tape
- Positive & upbeat feel.
- If you can, try to involve something healthy (one or more of the 5 main points of this approach - Nutrition/Improve Diet, Regular Checkups/Pediatrician, Exercise/Play, Psychology/Healthy Mind/Behavior Modification) - see attached flow chart for more info.
Thanks, looking forward to seeing your creations!

We live in a time where Facebook is nearly universal; it's difficult for many of our generation to imagine their social lives without social networking websites. Most people only know one or two people who don't have Facebook accounts.
In early December 2012, Facebook traffic dipped by nearly 1.4 million users. Understanding this number requires a little context: Facebook has more than 167 million users in the United States, so, in a relative sense, losing just shy of a million and a half users is nothing to be alarmed about. However, in an absolute sense, it's like losing the entire population of San Diego in users in just one month.
Certainly all of us know at least one person within our various networks and social circles who are actively taking a break from Facebook, or deleting their profiles for a myriad of reasons. As time goes on, I can imagine more individuals entertaining such a break at least once, if even for a limited amount of time. Given Facebook's enormous user base, is it totally unfeasible that 1.4 million users decided to take a break all at once?
These latest numbers stand in stark contrast to Facebook just 3 years ago, when it was experiencing tremendous and consistent upward growth. Two ideas may be contributing the recent decline in Facebook's popularity.
One of those ideas is market saturation. People taking "Facebook hiatuses" is nothing new; certainly Facebook has experienced a level of user turnover or pockets of user inactivity for some time now. A reasonable hypothesis, then, is that turnover or inactivity creates larger impacts because the influx of new users has slowed. An important idea is the possibility that Facebook has finally critically saturated its own market. Some tech experts estimate that Facebook's social media market share may be as high as 80%, or, that 80% of users who would potentially use Facebook are already doing so. When you account for individuals who do not meet Facebook's age restrictions (13 years and younger) and those of our grandparent's generation who aren't too keen on social media (65 years and older) the math ultimately only points in one direction: down.
The second factor could be the pressure to monetize. Despite Facebook offering its core user experience free of charge, as a service it must ultimately somehow generate revenue . Facebook users will have noticed recent changes aimed at generating cash: users can now pay a $7 fee to promote a specific post to more of their friends and un-promoted post visibility has been altered to increase the value of a post promoted with cash. Most recently, Facebook has been experimenting with charging users $100 to send messages directly to people outside of their "friends list." Many Facebook users have been very vocally annoyed at the idea of mandatory usage fees for Facebook; it is not surprising that many also disapprove of the increasing prevalence of offered pay services.
As an off and on Facebook user, I have not been bothered one way or another with the increasing prevalence of ads or pay-for-service features that have been creeping into the Facebook experience. When I take a break from social networking sites it's usually because the interactions those networks facilitate cease to be meaningful to me. In my experience, spending time with friends and family face to face is more enjoyable, more intimate, and ultimately requires you to prioritize your social life. If you're like me, every scroll through the Facebook homepage contains at least one good reminder that everyone you know is not worth the time you would spend associating with them anyway. Given this context, trading the breadth of digital socialization for the depth of face-to-face interaction makes sense on multiple levels.
As far as I'm concerned, inflammatory photo macros or recycled memes are enough to make anyone want take a break for a little while.

Where are South Dakota's Division I College Football Players Coming From?
It's been ten years since NCAA Division I college football came to South Dakota, when South Dakota State made the jump from Division II in 2004.
Since then, the number of D-I schools in the state has doubled, when South Dakota moved up in 2008.
But long before Division I football arrived in the Rushmore State, Division I recruiters were coming and taking South Dakota's best high school football players out of the state.
So where is the current crop of D-I talent coming from?
Mode's Benn Stancil used information from ESPN.com to create an in-depth map to show where the top football recruits are.
In South Dakota, Minnehaha County accounts for more than half (21) of the 41 South Dakotans currently playing in Division I.
In all, 14 of South Dakota's 66 counties (21%) have at least one player at the D-I level.
Nationally, it's not surprising that the vast majority of the recruits are coming from these warmer weather these major metropolitan areas:
Los Angeles
San Diego
According to the data, only two cities in colder climates are considered recruiting 'hotbeds':

Murfreesboro Tennessee May 20th 1863
Dear Parents -- I have just rec'ed your letter of the 24th which finds me well as usual. I rec'ed a letter from Aaron & Irene a day or two since they were in usual health and seemed in good spirits. they had not written to me for a long time and offered as an excuse that they had been very busy all the spring getting in crops. Well I suppose they have. I know when I was on the farm I used to dislike very much to write letters often to my friends, but since I have been in this camp I have deemed it a pleasure to correspond with my friends, as often as I could elicit a response. The weather here is very nice, it has been very hot & dry but yesterday & today we have had thunder showers cooling off the air and making it very pleasant. I went to town yesterday & went ontop of the Comt House where I had a splendid view, could see above every tent in the army, & all the fortifications. Some of the Officers of the Signal corps painted our Pilot Knob on our left 10 miles &

A couple of the comments I've received so far have made reference to the photo of the Stonewall Jackson Manassas monument that graces this site's banner. Later today (hopefully) I'll talk about the monument. This should give me a chance to learn how to insert photos and hyperlinks into a post. The banner photo was taken by me in April 2005 during a visit to the battlefield with friends Dick Weeks and Teej Smith.

Hi Harry.
Good luck with the blog. I too was impressed with the Stonewall imagery. Angle and the specific cropping are very effective. Looking forward to what you've got to say about the monument. Keeping thinking our "A Bull Runs Through It" t-shirt design would look good here as well. ;)
Best regards.
P.S. That "Written with love" gives you such a warm fuzzy demeanor. ;)

Kids waved and toddlers covered their ears as Santa rolled up in a red convertible escorted by about 20 Harleys.
They pulled into the parking lot of Pretend City Children's Museum in Irvine as the final stop on their annual toy drive.
They had just finished picking up thousands of gifts that will be distributed throughout 2013 to patients at Children's Hospital Orange County.
Two-year-old Aiden Heiman pushed his wheelchair as close to the bikes as possible.
"He loves motorcycles," his mother, Hodelia Hayat, said. "He's never seen them this close."
Aiden may end up receiving one of the toys members of the Orange Coast Harley Owners Group collected Friday.
He is frequently a patient at CHOC, where he has been hospitalized about 30 times and undergone 11 surgeries for spina bifida, which leaves him without feeling from his bellybutton down.
He was recently discharged from CHOC and got to see Pretend City for the first time.
"He was rocking the place," Hayat said, "just pushing himself everywhere and checking things out."
Pretend City is just what its name implies, an imaginary, scaled-down city for kids, complete with local landmarks like Irvine's Fire Station 51.
Linda Hunter, its chief organizational officer, is a member of the Harley riders, and three years ago she suggested it become the last stop of the toy pickup.
"Educationally, I want these kids to learn about giving, so we've done the toy drive for that reason, and what kid doesn't love motorcycles," said Hunter, wearing a light-up Rudolph nose with her helmet and leathers. "And Santa happens to be my husband."
Volunteers quickly finished stuffing a truck full of gifts that will be handed out any time a CHOC patient has a birthday or just needs a toy.
Santa's motorcycle-riding reindeer had already made five stops that day, pulling in donations from across Orange County.
"Our third stop is a preschool," said chapter Treasurer Ron Browning. "That whole thing makes it worthwhile right there. The kids sing songs to us. They give us cookies and stuff like that. It steals your heart away."
In past years, as many as 1,000 riders have gathered for the culmination on Christmas Eve when riders deliver the truck to CHOC.
It's been temporarily scaled back to a smaller ride while the hospital is under construction, so riders were happy to see the awestruck face of at least one CHOC patient as Santa handed Aiden a candy cane.
A few of them made sure to high-five Aiden before they roared off.
"It's still as satisfying as it can be," Browning said.

As with any of the previous modules in Varsity, we will again make the same old assumption that you are new to options and therefore know nothing about options.
For this reason we will start from scratch and slowly ramp up as we proceed. Let us start with running through some basic background information. The options market makes up for a significant part of the derivative market, particularly in India. Internationally, the option market has been around for a while now, here is a quick background on the same —.
Clearly the international markets have evolved a great deal since the OTC days. However in India from the time of inception, the options market was facilitated by the exchanges.
The badla system no longer exists, it has become obsolete. Here is a quick recap of the history of the Indian derivative markets —. Though the options market has been around since , the real liquidity in the Indian index options was seen only in !
I remember trading options around that time, the spreads were high and getting fills was a big deal. However in , the Ambani brothers formally split up and their respective companies were listed as separate entities, thereby unlocking the value to the shareholders.
In my opinion this particular corporate event triggered vibrancy in the Indian markets, creating some serious liquidity. However if you were to compare the liquidity in Indian stock options with the international markets, we still have a long way to catch up. There are two types of options — The Call option and the Put option. You can be a buyer or seller of these options. In fact the best way to understand the call option is to first deal with a tangible real world example, once we understand this example we will extrapolate the same to stock markets.
Consider this situation; there are two good friends, Ajay and Venu. Ajay is actively evaluating an opportunity to buy 1 acre of land that Venu owns. The land is valued at Rs. Ajay has been informed that in the next 6 months, a new highway project is likely to be sanctioned near the land that Venu owns. If the highway indeed comes up, the valuation of the land is bound to increase and therefore Ajay would benefit from the investment he would make today.
So what should Ajay do? Clearly this situation has put Ajay in a dilemma as he is uncertain whether to buy the land from Venu or not. While Ajay is muddled in this thought, Venu is quite clear about selling the land if Ajay is willing to buy.
Ajay wants to play it safe, he thinks through the whole situation and finally proposes a special structured arrangement to Venu, which Ajay believes is a win-win for both of them, the details of the arrangement is as follows —.
So what do you think about this special agreement? Who do you think is smarter here — Is it Ajay for proposing such a tricky agreement or Venu for accepting such an agreement? Well, the answer to these questions is not easy to answer, unless you analyze the details of the agreement thoroughly.
I would suggest you read through the example carefully it also forms the basis to understand options — Ajay has plotted an extremely clever deal here! In fact this deal has many faces to it.
Now, after initiating this agreement both Ajay and Venu have to wait for the next 6 months to figure out what would actually happen. However irrespective of what happens to the highway, there are only three possible outcomes —.
Remember as per the agreement, Ajay has the right to call off the deal at the end of 6 months. Now, with the increase in the land price, do you think Ajay will call off the deal? This means Ajay now enjoys the right to buy a piece of land at Rs. Clearly Ajay is making a steal deal here. Venu is obligated to sell him the land at a lesser value, simply because he had accepted Rs. Another way to look at this is — For an initial cash commitment of Rs.
Venu even though very clearly knows that the value of the land is much higher in the open market, is forced to sell it at a much lower price to Ajay. The profit that Ajay makes Rs. It turns out that the highway project was just a rumor, and nothing really is expected to come out of the whole thing. People are disappointed and hence there is a sudden rush to sell out the land.
As a result, the price of the land goes down to Rs. So what do you think Ajay will do now? Clearly it does not make sense to buy the land, hence he would walk away from the deal.
Here is the math that explains why it does not make sense to buy the land —. Remember the sale price is fixed at Rs. Hence if Ajay has to buy the land he has to shell out Rs. Which means he is in effect paying Rs. Clearly this would not make sense to Ajay, since he has the right to call of the deal, he would simply walk away from it and would not buy the land. However do note, as per the agreement Ajay has to let go of Rs.
For whatever reasons after 6 months the price stays at Rs. What do you think Ajay will do? Well, he will obviously walk away from the deal and would not buy the land. Why you may ask, well here is the math —. Clearly it does not make sense to buy a piece of land at Rs. Do note, since Ajay has already committed 1lk, he could still buy the land, but ends up paying Rs 1lk extra in this process.
For this reason Ajay will call off the deal and in the process let go of the agreement fee of Rs. I hope you have understood this transaction clearly, and if you have then it is good news as through the example you already know how the call options work! But let us not hurry to extrapolate this to the stock markets; we will spend some more time with the Ajay-Venu transaction.
I would suggest you be absolutely thorough with this example. If not, please go through it again to understand the dynamics involved. Also, please remember this example, as we will revisit the same on a few occasions in the subsequent chapters.
Do note, I will deliberately skip the nitty-gritty of an option trade at this stage. The idea is to understand the bare bone structure of the call option contract. Assume a stock is trading at Rs. You are given a right today to buy the same one month later, at say Rs. Obviously you would, as this means to say that after 1 month even if the share is trading at 85, you can still get to buy it at Rs. In order to get this right you are required to pay a small amount today, say Rs.
If the share price moves above Rs. If the share price stays at or below Rs. All you lose is Rs. After you get into this agreement, there are only three possibilities that can occur. Case 1 — If the stock price goes up, then it would make sense in exercising your right and buy the stock at Rs.
Case 2 — If the stock price goes down to say Rs. Case 3 — Likewise if the stock stays flat at Rs. This is simple right?
If you have understood this, you have essentially understood the core logic of a call option. What remains unexplained is the finer points, all of which we will learn soon.
At this stage what you really need to understand is this — For reasons we have discussed so far whenever you expect the price of a stock or any asset for that matter to increase, it always makes sense to buy a call option! Now that we are through with the various concepts, let us understand options and their associated terms. Hi Sir, Options is like greek and latin to me.
Thanks for the analogies. No, all derivative contracts are routed via the exchanges. You cannot enter into an OTC arrangement, even if you do, it would not be regulated hence quite dangerous.
What benefit would Ajay get by calling off the deal before the expiry of 6 months? He will instead wait for the whole 6 months for any chance of the highway project.
My first question Karthik is this: The dropdown value on the NSE website does not contain all months expiries — after 18th May we have 25th June followed by 24th Sept and then 31st Dec What happened to the other months? For to only June and Dec contracts are available. What happened to the remaining? Saurabh, glad you noticed it! For all stocks options the expiry is very similar to futures.
Hence we have current month, mid month, and far month contracts. However for Nifty there are several different expiry options. Leaps are good if you have a super long term view on markets. However the problem with leaps in India is that they are not liquid, there are hardly any trading activity here.

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) -- The Oneida Indians on Thursday signed a deal with Gov. Andrew Cuomo's administration and local governments that would guarantee them exclusive territory for their central New York casino in exchange for revenue payments to the state of around $50 million annually.
The broad deal not only helps Cuomo as he seeks to expand casino gambling, it also settles longstanding tax and land claim issues that have cast shadows over the Oneida Indian Nation's relationship with its upstate neighbors.
"This was one of the truly lingering, festering, negative situations in the state," Cuomo, a Democrat, said at a state Capitol signing ceremony. "To finally come to terms and work through all these years of emotion and years of disappointment was extraordinary."
Under the deal, the Oneidas would be assured that no competing casino would be located across a broad swath of land in the middle of the state and the tribe would agree to give to the state 25 percent of the Turning Stone casino's net revenue from slots, expected to be around $50 million annually.
The Oneidas agreed to place no more than 25,000 acres of land into trust, effectively settling the tribe's longstanding land claims. The Oneidas would charge prices for cigarettes comparable with non-Indian merchants, who have complained they can't compete with the Oneida's untaxed goods. The tribe said it already does that with gasoline sales.
Local governments would see income from a number of sources. For instance, the state would distribute a quarter of the revenue it receives from the tribe to Oneida County, where Turning Stone is located. Neighboring Madison County would get a one-time payment of $11 million for past tax claims.
The counties agreed to drop ongoing litigation against the Oneidas over the tribe's application to put land into trust.
"This is a success not just for the Oneida people, it's a win for central New York and a win for the state," Oneida Nation representative Ray Halbritter said.
The Oneida leader announced the deal along with Cuomo, Oneida County Executive Anthony Picente and Madison County Board of Supervisors Chairman John Becker.
Cuomo drove hard for the deal as he works on his proposal to bring three Las Vegas casinos to upstate New York at yet-to-be-identified locations. A public referendum to change New York's constitution to allow non-Indian casinos could be on the ballot as early as November. The deal announced Thursday effectively sidelines the Oneidas as a potential deep-pocketed foe of expansion.
Cuomo said the deal will stand whether or not voters approve expanded gambling, though it still needs approval by state and county legislatures, the Department of the Interior and the state attorney general.
The agreement comes a week after Cuomo said Indian casinos run by the Oneidas, Senecas and Mohawks could face competition in their backyards if talks with tribes fail to yield results.
The governor on Thursday did not indicate any progress in talks with the Seneca Nation of Indians or the St. Regis Mohawks. Those tribes have been withholding casino payments to the state because they claim it violated their compacts by allowing gambling in their exclusive territories.

My absolute favorite image from Tim Holtz's newest release is SPLATTERFLY! It is a cool butterfly that looks like it was splattered onto the page (in an artsy way - not a smashed bug kind of way-hee hee :).
Tim has a great technique where he uses his alcohol inks, stamps and a can of compressed air (like the ones you use to clean your computer)! It is easy to do and has a fantastic effect.
Here is the link to Tim's Demo - CLICK HERE. I love this technique! It kind of reminds me of those Sprial Art things we had as kids where the color was splashed around in circles. I love the bright colors Tim uses in this demo and of course, the stamps. Besides the Splatterfly stamp, he also uses BOTANY. It reminds me of a whimsical plant you would see in a fairy tale.
Both of these images are also available in unmounted rubber versions in the set called FAIRYTALE FRENZY. Be sure to check out the whole line of Tim's wood mounted stamps and unmounted stamp sets available at SimonSaysStamp.com. I think he has really outdone himself this time. The images are spectacular!
Well, I better get back to my stamping! So much to create, so little time! ~TERRA

Production of the Mustang started in Dearborn, Michigan on March 9, 1964 and the automobile was introduced to the general public on April 17, 1964 at the New york city World's Fair. It is Ford's third oldest nameplate presently in production. Initial sales projections predicted less than 100,000 devices for the first year. This mark was exceeded in 3 months from rollout. Another 318,000 would be sold during the model year (a record), and in its very first eighteen months, more than one million Mustangs were developed. Looking for Mustangs for sale in Williamstown WV is easy now. Just use the internet to search for them near you.
Classic Mustangs For Sale
All these were VIN-identified as 1965 designs, but numerous modifications were made at the traditional opening of the new design year (start August 1964), consisting of the addition of back-up lights on some designs, the introduction of alternators to change generators, and an upgrade of the V8 engine from 260 cu into 289 cu in. When it comes to at least some six-cylinder Mustangs fitted with the 101 hp 170 cu in Falcon engine, the rush into production consisted of some unusual peculiarities, such as a horn ring bearing the 'Ford Falcon' logo design underneath a trim ring emblazoned with 'Ford Mustang.' These attributes made sufficient distinction to call for classification of the 121,538 earlier ones as "1964 1/2" model-year Mustangs, a distinction that has actually endured with purists. Buy Classic Mustangs in Williamstown WV and live the muscle car dream.
The 1973 OPEC oil embargo brought with it more stringent contamination laws and the desire for fuel-efficiency. This was likewise the first time in automobile history that the Big 3 were needing to compete with imports. The new Mustang II was smaller than the very first version however, due to the additional devices required to meet brand-new US emission and safety policies, was heavier than the first model. Efficiency was decreased and in the very first year only 385,993 cars were offered. 2nd generation Mustangs were readily available between 1974 and 1978 and available in a coupe and hatchback variation. 1979 the Mustang was upgraded a 3rd time. This time it was based on the larger Fox platform and the interior was truly big enough for four people. The trunk was bigger therefore was the engine bay. The body designs readily available included a coupe, hatchback and in 1983 a convertible. In 1979 the 3rd generation Mustang acted as an Indianapolis 500 speed vehicle and Ford built 10,478 commemorative reproductions. The 3rd generation Mustangs were produced from 1979 to 1982. Now has never been a better time to buy the Ford Mustang Of Your Dreams in Williamstown WV with special collector financing available.
4th generation design was offered from 1994 to 2004. 1994 Brought about the first significant redesign for the Mustang in 15 years. Patrick Schiavone incorporated numerous styling from earlier Mustangs. The base design featured a 3.8 OHV V6 engine from 1994 to 1998, and was mated to a standard 5-speed manual transmission or optional 4-speed automatic.

ARLINGTON, Wash. (AP) � Voices of people crying for help in the wreckage of a deadly Washington state mudslide have stopped, and hopes of finding any more survivors waned as searchers pulled more bodies from the tangled debris field and crews worked through the night into Monday.
At least eight people were killed in the 1-square-mile slide that hit just before 11 a.m. Saturday.
Search and rescue teams took to the air in helicopters and the ground on foot on Sunday looking for anyone who might still be alive. Their spirits had been raised late Saturday night when they heard the cries for help from the flotsam of trees, dirt and wreckage. Dangerous conditions forced them to turn back in the darkness, but they resumed their work at first light Sunday.
"We didn't see or hear any signs of life out there today," Snohomish County Fire District 21 Chief Travis Hots said. "It's very disappointing to all emergency responders on scene."
Snohomish County sheriff's Lt. Rob Palmer said four more bodies were discovered late Sunday. Earlier in the day, authorities said one body had been found on the debris field in a rural area about 55 miles northeast of Seattle. Three people were already confirmed dead on Saturday.
More people remained missing, and authorities said the number was "fluid." Earlier Sunday, they said it was at least 18, but that count came before additional bodies were discovered.
Several people were also critically injured � including an infant � and about 30 homes were destroyed.
Crews were able to get to the soupy, tree-strewn area that was 15-feet deep in places Sunday after geologists flew over in a helicopter and determined it was safe enough for emergency responders and technical rescue personnel to search for possible survivors, Hots said.
He added that they did not search the entire debris field, only drier areas safe to traverse. Hots said crews were still in a "search and rescue mode. It has not gone to a recovery mode at this time."
Before crews could get onto the debris field late Sunday morning, they looked for people by helicopter.
The slide wiped through what neighbors described as a former fishing village of small homes � some nearly 100 years old.
Officials described the mudslide as "a big wall of mud and debris." It blocked about a mile of State Route 530 near the town of Oso, about 55 miles north of Seattle. Both frequent, heavy rainfall and geography make this area of Washington prone to landslides. Less than a decade ago, another significant slide hit in the same general area. Geologists and other experts said the Stillaguamish River likely caused some erosion in the area that was carved by glaciers.
Authorities believe Saturday's slide was caused by ground made unstable by recent heavy rainfall.
Washington Gov. Jay Inslee described the scene as "a square mile of total devastation" after flying over the disaster area midday Sunday. He assured families that everything was being done to find their missing loved ones.
The slide blocked the North Fork of the Stillaguamish River. With the water pooling behind the debris, authorities worried about downstream flooding and issued an evacuation notice Saturday. The water had begun to seep through the blockage Sunday afternoon, alleviating some concerns, and the evacuation notice was lifted.
Shari Ireton, a spokeswoman for the Snohomish County sheriff's office, said Sunday that eight people were injured in the slide.
A 6-month-old boy and an 81-year-old man remained in critical condition Sunday morning at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. Hospital spokeswoman Susan Gregg said two men, ages 37 and 58, were in serious condition, while a 25-year-old woman was upgraded to satisfactory condition.
Bruce Blacker, who lives just west of the slide, doesn't know the whereabouts of six neighbors.
"It's a very close-knit community," Blacker said as he waited at an Arlington roadblock before troopers let him through.
Search-and-rescue help came from around the region, including the Washington State Patrol and the Army Corps of Engineers. More than 100 were at the scene.
Dane Williams, 30, who lives a few miles from the mudslide, spent Saturday night at a Red Cross shelter at the Arlington school.
He said he saw a few "pretty distraught" people at the shelter who didn't know the fate of loved ones who live in the stricken area.
"It makes me want to cry," Williams said.
Hots said searchers would continue their efforts through the difficult debris field.
"There may be people in their cars, there may be people in houses," he said.

A Sentimental Sunday post written by my dad:
Remembering some of my maternal great uncles by Jim Eiswerth
My grandfather (Eugene Jerome Eck) had several brothers that lived close to us when I was growing up. As their first home, my mom and dad rented a small house that was owned by my mom's Uncle Clyde Eck. The house was located on the North side of Uncle Clyde's produce farm which was located within South Williamsport growing residential area. From our back window we could see Uncle Clyde's big red barn, his home and several out buildings. In a larger house on the West side of the same farm, another one of my mom's uncles lived. Their house was maybe a block and a half away from us --- around the corner and up the street. Uncle Wally and his wife Aunt Eleanor along with Aunt Mame, all lived there. When my mom was having her next child, Aunt Mame or Aunt Eleanor spent a lot of time helping out at our house.
Uncle Clyde and his wife Aunt Marg ran the truck (produce) farm. Uncle Clyde was a really sharp business man and everyone always said he could plan and see money coming 10 years out. On his farm they grew all kinds of vegetables, and sold them at the Williamsport Market located on what else but Market Street. In their barn there were 2 milk cows that Uncle Clyde milked twice a day. I'm not positive but I think we got a lot of that milk when we were little kids growing up. When we were a little older, we got to spend more time up on the farm. We would help pick vegetables, and since Uncle Clyde and Aunt Marg didn't have their own kids running around, they would try to teach us different things. Uncle Clyde really liked my brother Wayne, and Wayne followed him around like a puppy dog. Wayne must have paid attention, because his investments over the years all worked out.
Aunt Marg was a big woman who was always happy and talkative. I can still remember her grinding up horseradish for the market while carrying on a conversation with us. Grinding horseradish by hand is not fun. The fumes make your eyes water and your nose run. Aunt Marg would look like she was crying her eyes out, while telling us funny stories and jokes. At Christmas time when we visited them, she was like Mrs. Clause and we would pile up next to her to share her cookies.
Uncle Wally was always pretty quiet. When mom walked us kids over to their house, you almost always found him on the front porch reading the newspaper or something. He would chuckle at us kids, but it was always Aunt Eleanor or Aunt Mame that would fuss over us kids. With 6 kids and a 7th on the way, my mom was always so grateful to Aunt Eleanor and Aunt Mame being close by and for all their help.
I think when we finally moved from South Williamsport to the house that my dad built near our grandparents in the East End of Williamsport, that the farm got a lot quieter. The cows were gone too. During summers in grade school, my dad would drop a couple of us kids off to help Uncle Clyde and Aunt Marg bring in crops, like sweet corn, onions, tomatoes, string beans, … I even got to cry along with Aunt Marg as I turned the grinder while she bottled fresh horseradish.

Sentimental Sunday - Great Uncles and Their Farm
2 comments:
A delightful memory of a special time and place. I wandered the garden, sat in the kitchen, and took in the farm aromas of barn, garden, grass and fresh air. ThanksReplyDelete
What a wonderful memory! No doubt his memory allows him to "see" the uncles and aunts, the cows, the produce, the farm, etc. Please thank your dad for sharing.ReplyDelete

Between preparing healthy food, adhering to strict nutrition standards, navigating student food allergies, and offering service with a smile, Oldham County nutrition professionals have a lot on their plate.
To celebrate their hard work and commitment, the School Nutrition Association organizes School Nutrition Employee Week, this year May 6-10.
To kick off the celebration, SNA has partnered with Jarrett Krosoczka, author of the "Lunch Lady" graphic novel series and Random House Children's Books, to create School Lunch Superhero Day.
The superhero theme will carry through the week and give parents, students and school staff an opportunity to thank those who provide healthy meals to 32 million of America's students each school day.
All across the school district, school nutrition professionals will be honored with thanks, cards, and recognition from students, school staff, parents, and the community. The food services department wants to share their gratitude for the hard work and dedication shown to the students of Oldham County. Cafeteria employees are just about the only school employee to see EVERY student, EVERY day. A simple smile, 'good morning' or 'see you tomorrow!' means so much to a child, no matter what age.
School nutrition employees must balance many roles and follow numerous federal, state and local regulations to ensure safe and healthy meals are available in schools. In fact, federal nutrition standards ensure that every school lunch offers students a well-balanced meal offering low-fat or fat-free milk, fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean protein. School meals also meet limits on calories, sodium and unhealthy fats.
The importance and nutritional value of school meals are well documented. For many children, school lunch is the most important and nutrient-rich meal of their day.
Oldham County nutrition staff feed approximately 6,283 students a day for lunch — and all 10 elementary schools are Healthier US School Challenge award winners. The menus for all levels are certified healthy by the USDA.
Get the details about School Lunch Superhero Day at www.schoollunchsuperheroday.com. To learn more about the school nutrition program for Oldham County, visit http://www.oldham.kyschools.us/nutrition/.
The School Nutrition Association (SNA) is a national, non-profit professional organization representing 55,000 school nutrition professionals across the country. Founded in 1946, SNA and its members are dedicated to making healthy school meals and nutrition education available to all students.

AT&T is reportedly looking to acquire El Segundo-based DirecTV, a marriage that would bring the country's largest wireless carrier and largest satellite-television provider under one roof.
Coming at a time when a declining pay-TV market has stunted subscriber growth for DirecTV, the $48 billion deal would bolster AT&T's digital TV service U-verse, which has less than 6 million subscribers. The satellite TV company has 20 million customers in the United States and another 18 million subscribers in Latin America.
Rumors of the merger, first reported by the Wall Street Journal, led to a 12 percent jump in DirecTV's share price. DirecTV has a market cap of about $44 billion, while AT&T is worth $188 billion.
The acquisition of DirecTV's satellite TV service promises to free up bandwidth for AT&T's more than 11 million Internet subscribers. The wireless giant has 116 million wireless customers. The country's second largest mobile provider, Verizon Wireless, has 103 million subscribers.
Both companies were keeping mum about the reports.
"We're not commenting on it. We don't comment on speculation," said Robert Mercer, senior director of public relations at DirecTV,
Ian Olgeirson, a Denver-based industry analyst at SNL Financial, said customers of the two companies might notice subtle changes if a deal is reached.
The first step would like be a joint marketing effort across both content delivery platforms.
"I don't think that if you are a DirecTV customer for video service you will see huge changes in your service right off the bat," Olgeirson said.
Charlie Ergen, chairman of DirecTV's rival Dish Network, also has expressed interest in the El Segundo company, but its coffers are no match for AT&T's
With 14 million subscribers and billions of dollars in wireless airwave rights, Dish Network is the second-largest satellite TV provider.
The two pay-TV rivals tried to join forces a decade ago but anti-trust regulators prevented the merger. Regulators also stymied AT&T's attempt to acquire T-Mobile in 2011.
News of AT&T's intentions comes as regulators are considering the legality of another blockbuster merger between Comcast and Time Warner Cable, the two largest cable companies in the country. Regulators are expected to approve Comcast's bid to acquire Time Warner Cable despite concerns from lawmakers and consumer advocates that the merger would create a monopoly.
The companies have disputed this claim by pointing out they do not share the same coverage areas, although the deal would place 30 percent of the market in the hands of just one company.
Olgeirson said he is not surprised to hear of AT&T's interest in DirecTV in the aftermath of the Comcast and Time Warner Cable deal.
"I think we have an industry that has matured. They (AT&T and DirecTV) are not able to gain a lot of subscribers on organic growth," he said "And the prospects of Comcast getting bigger makes some of their competitors a little twitchy about how to gain scale."

There probably are members of Congress who show greater deference to America's adversaries than does my representative, Chris Van Hollen, but there aren't many. In his examination of U.N. Ambassador John Bolton during hearings before a House committee (carried on C-SPAN), Van Hollen took the position that we are having trouble getting China and Russia to support tough U.N. action against Iran because the Bush administration cited prior U.N. resolutions when it went to war in Iraq. In espousing this convoluted argument, Van Hollen hit the leftist trifecta, combining "blame America first" syndrome, the left's apologist tradition with respect to Communist and other thugish regimes, and mindless Bush-bashing.
I wonder what evidence Van Hollen would adduce for the notion that, had we not invaded Iraq, China and Russia would be prepared to back tough action against Iran. Only someone too naive for public office, or a cheap shot artist, would suggest that the positions of China and Russia on important foreign policy issues are grounded in our conduct, not their own perceived self-interest.
But Van Hollen took things to a more craven level when he asked Bolton whether the Bush administration would assure the Russians and the Red Chinese that if they backed a U.N. resolution on Iran we would not later cite the resolution as support for military action against Iran. In effect, a member of Congress almost seemed to be acting as a self-appointed intermediary between one or more hostile foreign power and the United States government.
Bolton responded that the U.S. would not give Russia and China a say in our decisions about how to prevent Iran from becoming a nuclear power. Van Hollen claimed that this is not what he wants. But once we start trading assurances for U.N. votes, it's difficult to see how we don't end up with that outcome. And given Van Hollen's deep suspicion of American assertiveness and his corresponding lack of suspicion of the motives of our adversaries, it's difficult to believe that this is not the outcome Van Hollen favors.

Jambalaya Entertainment Inc.
Jambalaya is an internet based company focusing on quality children's educational entertainment. The company is founded on the premise that parental interaction is fundamental to a child's development.
Our product is for children aged five and under and delivered via the Internet; however, the website will only be visited by parents of those children. Since the audience is world wide, symbology that applies across language, race and religion is desirable.
Since it is parents that will be shopping on our web site, the logo should not be too childish and will embody a sense of trust that the product will provide children with a valuable and educational experience.
The logo would ideally leverage the corporate name and tagline "Jambalaya… Food for Thought" although this is not mandatory; nor is it a requirement that the corporate name must appear in the logo. This will be left to the artist's discretion.
The logo will be used across all media so should present well on printed material and on the web. Although the primary logo will be colorful, it should translate well to grey scale.

I am sorry about the delay in postings. My mother is in a rehabilitation facility (physical therapy) and is having several medical issues that are not being addressed properly and without intervention, she could have died. We are still not where we need to be but I met with the Adminstrator today to resolve these. This is proving to be a lot on top of caring for Dear Son. This has been enormously stressful for me. I can honestly say that I have not been this stressed in years. I haven't been able to sleep this week since I have been sick with worry. As a general rule, I am not that type of person but when you know your mother is being neglected and suffering, it's really hard to function. My sister and I are working together on my mother's behalf, which makes it easier.
On a positive note, Dear Son continues to do well. He still has some bad seizures but overall is making some remarkable progress. This week, he was able to raise his chin up when I shaved under his chin. Each time I asked him to lift his chin up, he was able to do it. I was so proud of him and so excited! This has never happened before. In the past, I might ask him to do something and you could see he understood it and wanted to do it but it would take a little while for him to get his body working and then he may only be able to do part of what I asked. Now that he's taking the organic, virgin, coconut oil, he seems to be able to coordinate his mind/body better. I have increased his dose from 1 tsp to 1 tbsp/day and that seems to work better for him.
In addition to moving his chin up, he was able to move his hand out of the way the other day, prior to me lowering the bed rails. Typically, I have to move his hand out of the way, before I lower it. The other day, he moved it out of the way himself. This was huge! I can not explain why this necessarily is working so well for him but only that everything seems to be better. Please note, Dear Son stills sleeps a lot after school and it hasn't changed his diagnosis or anything but he definitely looks better, seems happier and is able to do more things than he has done in the last few years.
