Okay, maybe it's because I'm fighting off a bit of a fever, but I can't wait for Adora. I literally can't wait. I want to see her now, and get past the freaking out and into the "she ain't so great" and then swing back into the "OMG she's perfect because I love her for who she is, I can't believe this got made, I want to play and take pictures now!!!"
Someone hold my hand. Or give me an Adora. How about an Adora to hold hands with me?

Police: Man killed prostitute, let acquaintance have sex with her body
According to police, the woman was found on Jan. 22 after a fire burned down a detached garage at a San Antonio, Texas, home
According to police, the woman was found on Jan. 22 after a fire burned down a detached garage at a San Antonio, Texas, home
A 29-year-old man was arrested Sunday for allegedly strangling a prostitute and letting an acquaintance have sex with her body before setting her on fire in a Texas garage, according to court documents.
Javier Hernandez allegedly confessed to an unnamed witness that he killed a prostitute by strangling her and burning her body next to his home. Prior to burning her body, an acquaintance of the suspect allegedly had sex with the dead woman's body, according to an arrest affidavit obtained by mySA.com.
Police found her badly burned body on Jan. 22 in a detached garage. An arson-sniffing dog was brought to the scene and detected an accelerant used in the creation of the fire, according to the arrest affidavit.
Her body was so badly burned that the only identifying information police had was a part of her back that was not burned. That portion of her back had a tattoo and a photo of it was shared with the media, according to previous reports.
The woman has yet to be identified, said SAPD spokesman Douglas Greene.
She is described as being Hispanic and between 18 and 35 years old. She appears to have had brown hair and breast implants and a tattoo on her lower back, previous reports said.
Police charged Hernandez with first-degree murder on Sunday.
If convicted, he faces five to 99 years or life in prison.

Five games into their season, the Pittsburgh Steelers we know still haven't shown up.
Pittsburgh's 26-23 loss to the Tennessee Titans on Thursday night in Nashville, dropping the team's road record to 0-3, was a humbling reminder that the Steelers are not the Steelers this season. Not yet.
The Steelers we know wouldn't give up 10 points in the final five minutes against a 1-4 team. The Steelers we know would have been able to run the ball for more than 56 yards against a defense that was giving up more points (by far) than any team in the NFL.
Make no mistake: The Titans were an awful team before Thursday. They lost four games by an average of 24 points. Their one win was the definition of fluky -- including multiple return touchdowns and insane long scores. Tennessee gave great effort Thursday night, but the Ttians don't have a lot of weapons on either side of the ball that scare you.
The Steelers have lost to the Titans, the Oakland Raiders and the Denver Broncos on the road. The combined record of those teams when they aren't facing the Steelers: 2-10.
Injuries continue to be a major problem for Pittsburgh. Rashard Mendenhall and Isaac Redman were lost in the backfield. Offensive linemen Maurkice Pouncey and Marcus Gilbert also were hurt. The offensive line and running game have struggled all season, requiring Ben Roethlisberger to play at a superhuman level.
For four games, Big Ben was up to the challenge. His play sparkled even when the numbers didn't show it. His performance Thursday was more uneven. There were great moments -- like his 82-yard bomb to Mike Wallace -- but there also were a lot of missed throws and short drives against a lackluster opponent. Roethlisberger threw 40 times for 363 yards; ideally, he wouldn't have to throw that much.
Normally in these spots, the Steelers' defense would pick up the slack. But it is lacking difference makers with LaMarr Woodley and Troy Polamalu hurt. Casey Hampton looks like a shell of his former self. James Harrison doesn't look all the way back yet. The pass rush is so-so, and the run defense woke up Chris Johnson for a night. (He had 91 yards on 19 carries.)
The Steelers are a team searching for itself at 2-3. There still is plenty of time to recover, but this Steelers team does not look familiar.Follow Gregg Rosenthal on Twitter @greggrosenthal.

If you are looking for a reliable SEO Expert, my name is Md Tangeer Mehedi, and I am here to help. Book Free Consultation
Post Summary
"Google". The popularity of this phrase in our daily lives is strong evidence that a crucial part of the buyer's journey is not found in the main results of the search engines.
97% of consumers connect online to find local services, and 82% of smartphone users use a search engine when searching for a local business. How do you connect with these consumers? With the local search engine optimization (SEO) of one of the best local SEO companies in the nation.
The phone book is out and the online search engines are on, which means you need local SEO so that local consumers can find your services online. Local SEO helps you find and grow your business in four main ways:
The reason why all companies need local SEO is that search engines, like Google, have realized that many users are looking for specific services and products near them. In fact, more than half of the total Google search queries have a local intent. So how does that affect your business? It means that potential customers are looking for your services within your service area and could find it if you increase your local SEO! With better local rankings, you will see more visits to your website and more potential customers for your company.
Local SEO is the process of making your business visible for geographically relevant searches. Local SEO helps your business improve its online visibility, outperform competition from local competitors, increase organic traffic to your site, and generate more qualified leads for your business.
A successful local SEO campaign is critical to any small business when it comes to increase leads and revenue from neighboring customers. Think local SEO like today's phone book! While the calls you receive from newspaper ads and the yellow pages are dwindling (or do not exist), local search engine optimization can generate more phone calls and online contact forms on your website.
Hiring an SEO company for local SEO services has some special benefits:
How can you tell if you should hire a local SEO company? If your business meets any of the following conditions, you need local SEO.
Your company is unique in every other company, which is why we create customer prices and packages according to your individual needs. We refrain from pricing until we understand your specific needs, as this varies widely. Some local businesses only have a budget of $1,000 and only need basic local SEO services, while others have a budget of $10,000 and need the work. If a local SEO marketing firm offers you package deals, it's a bad sign that your partnership does not get you much customization or customization.
However, we have defined services that are included in each local SEO package:
At RegentSEO, we provide a variety of services to support your company's local search engine optimization campaign. These include:
1. Flooring
2. Interior Utilities
3. Tidy Up, Scrub Out
4. Stamped Concrete
5. Rock Demolition
6. Water Retention Facilities
7. Construction
8. Plumbers
9. Rising Damp
11. Residential Waterproofing
12. Tidy Up, Scrub Out
13. Water Retention Facilities

15. Landscapers
16. Solar Panels
17. Interior And Exterior Walls
18. Window And Door Frames
19. Basement
20. Concrete Cutting
21. And More…
If you are like most business owners, wear many hats. Between running a business, dealing with everyday problems, and trying to find time for your family, there's not much free time at the end of the day. However, as search engines update their local search rank factors, it is important that you educate yourself so that you do not lag behind the competition. We can help!
RegentSEO is an award-winning online marketing company that delivers great results to help customers get more rankings, more traffic, leads and sales from the Internet. Our goal is to make every customer an enthusiastic fan of our work, and we want you to be the next. Read some of our customer stories to see what our current customers think of us!

My biggest gripe was the exclusives. Too many and way overpriced.
This was one of the more fun years of collecting for me, and most expensive. I'm glad we had a year like this, but I hope the remaining years are a bit more mellow, but with product just as easy to find.

Rihanna Charms Jonathan Ross in Revealing Interview, Performs 'Talk That Talk' Live
Rihanna's interview with British television personality Jonathan Ross has gotten a lot of press lately. He managed to get some of the singer's best sound bytes yet! Now you can watch the interview in its entirety.
Since we already covered Rihanna's quips about her dating life and her feelings about Adele, we'll get straight to what the world missed.
RiRi describes the competitive nature of the female pop landscape, especially between the biggest acts: herself, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga and, of course, her girl crush, Adele. "It'll always be a competition," Rihanna admitted of her relationship with her peers. "That's why I feel like women are becoming so dominant in music now. Because we are competitive beings, and we cannot stand to see another woman do better than us. That bothers us a lot you know," she laughed. "As much as guys have egos, our egos are a lot bit bigger," RiRi said. "We're just better at hiding them."
Rihanna also revealed what it's like to be so sexy! "I don't really ever notice it or think of it until I hear the feedback," Rihanna said of her sultry onstage presence. (We find that hard to believe considering she routinely grabs her junk and sings about 'S&M,' but we digress.) "Going back to Carnival in Barbados, I realized that it's a cultural thing," the Bajan beauty said. "It's the way we move." She loves her home country. "Barbados is pretty much perfect. It really is paradise. Barbados — they've been very supportive, and I will always represent them … that is my home, it will always be home."
She also dished on why she takes the subway when she's in England: Logistics! "I hate being stuck in traffic. I hate waking up early, I'm always late," she said. "The tube is 10, 15 minutes!"
Tune in to the interview below as well as her performance of 'Talk That Talk' for more dish on 'Battleship,' her sexpot image and a lesson in Bajan slang — and to see what other singer may be interested in RiRi! (Hint: It ain't Breezy!)

Eating Disorders: Not Just for the Young
Getty Images
By Anne Harding
TUESDAY, June 26, 2012 (Health.com) — Diane Butrym doesn't fit the stereotype of an eating disorder patient. She's a 51-year-old microbiologist and mother of two, not a troubled teen or 20-something, yet for the past decade she has struggled with bulimia.
Butrym's problem began in 2002, which was an eventful year for her. That March she was diagnosed with breast cancer, and in October, after a successful course of treatment, she was struck by a car in a crosswalk on her way home from work, sustaining multiple ankle and knee injuries that required surgery.
She had always been slim and athletic, and exercise was her outlet for stress. Sidelined with her injuries, Butrym began sharply restricting her calorie intake so she wouldn't gain weight, and before long she was binging and purging. The cycle started to feel addictive; it gave her much-needed pleasure and also eased her stress.
Related links:

- Tips for Eating Healthy During Menopause
"I was really angry about what was happening, and I didn't know any other way of getting rid of my anger," says Butrym, who lives in Schenectady, N.Y.
Butrym's case is hardly textbook. Bulimia and anorexia tend to emerge during adolescence, not middle age, and the disorders are more prevalent among young people. Butrym may not be as exceptional as she seems, however.
In recent years, doctors and researchers have begun to look more closely at disordered eating in mid-life. Despite the growing attention, experts say the problem is likely underreported, partly because adult women disguise behaviors such as purging, and partly because eating disorders typically aren't on the radar screen of doctors who care for this age group.
"Eating disorders are still in the closet to a large extent, especially for adult women," says Margo Maine, Ph.D., a clinical psychologist in private practice in West Hartford, Conn., who specializes in treating the disorders. "Adult women have such shame about admitting it."

How eating disorders differ in mid-life
Full-fledged eating disorders are rare at any age, affecting fewer than 3% of teenagers and 1% of adults at any given time, according to government estimates. (An overwhelming majority of cases occur in women.) However, a smattering of data from around the world suggests the behaviors associated with bulimia and anorexia may be more common in mid-life than previously believed.
The most recent evidence comes from a survey of 1,849 women age 50 and up, the results of which were published last week in the International Journal of Eating Disorders. Eight percent of the respondents reported purging in the previous five years, and 7% said their efforts to control their weight led them to exercise so much that it had begun to interfere with their daily functioning.
The survey, which was conducted online, isn't a reliable gauge of how common these behaviors are among adult women in the general population. But the results do provide a glimpse into disordered eating in middle age that rings true with the growing anecdotal evidence, the researchers say.
"My gut says this is pretty on-target," says Cynthia Bulik, Ph.D., the lead researcher of the survey and the director of the eating disorders program at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
What's driving these women to purge or work out excessively? Although the survey didn't examine this question in detail, a majority of the survey respondents said they felt dissatisfied with their bodies—a hallmark of eating disorders across all age groups.
Indeed, previous research suggests that many of the factors that underlie eating disorders in young people may contribute to similar problems in older populations. According to a 2008 study in the Journal of General Psychology, the most common drivers include stress, depression, perfectionism, and social pressure to be thin, in addition to body dissatisfaction.
Butrym's story is unusual in that most middle-aged women with eating disorders do not become ill for the first time as adults, Maine says. But there is some evidence that certain stressful experiences that are more common in middle age—such as divorce, the death of a spouse, or medical scares like Butrym's—may help trigger, or reawaken, an eating disorder.
Weight gain and body changes related to aging likely play a role as well. As menopause approaches, metabolism slows and estrogen production drops, causing shifts in fat distribution that can lead to a thicker middle, even for women who are eating healthy and exercising regularly. Most women gain eight to 10 pounds during the transition through menopause, which could aggravate any predispositions for disordered eating, Maine says.
Next page: An epidemic of body dissatisfaction
An epidemic of body dissatisfaction
Women like Butrym who develop full-blown eating disorders may simply be the most extreme examples of a widespread fixation on body size among middle-aged women, Bulik's survey suggests.
More than 70% of the women in the survey said they were currently trying to lose weight, and 62% said they felt concerns about weight, shape, or eating had a negative impact on their life "occasionally" or "often." Forty-one percent said they scrutinized their body at least once a day—by pinching their waist, for example.
Frustration with menopause-related weight gain, in particular, shone through in the answers to the survey's open-ended questions, Bulik says. "A lot of the women said, 'Who stole my waist? Where did my waist go?'"
Maine and Bulik agree that the pressures adult women face at home, in the workplace, and in society are probably making matters worse. The changes associated with menopause are perfectly natural, but they aren't always easy to reconcile with catchphrases like "50 is the new 30" or the day-to-day demands of modern life.
Many middle-aged women are juggling child rearing and work responsibilities, or caring for aging patients. That can leave little time for planning healthy meals or exercising, at a stage of life when the amount of exercise needed to maintain one's weight—let alone drop a few pounds—goes up.
"As a culture, we live in a very, very stressful time, and for women this is even more so, because our roles have changed so dramatically," says Maine, coauthor of The Body Myth: Adult Women and the Pressure to be Perfect.. "We have little time [and] few avenues with which to cope with the stress, and dieting and exercise abuse and weight loss are ritualistic ways for us to manage our stress."
The preoccupation with body size seen in the new survey can take a psychological toll even when it doesn't develop into an eating disorder. Many women who took the survey reported feeling distracted and preoccupied by their weight and shape as they went about their everyday tasks, Bulik says.
Next page: An often-overlooked problem
An often-overlooked problem
Eating disorders are hard on the body, especially over a long period of time. They can be fatal, and even in less dire cases they can lead to serious heart problems, digestive problems, tooth decay, and osteoporosis, which is already a major concern for postmenopausal women.
"We're actually more concerned about the physical consequences for women as they get older, because their bodies just don't bounce back as well," Bulik says. "All of those systems start not being as robust as we get older. … Add an eating disorder and the risk goes up."
The standard treatment for disordered eating typically includes psychotherapy, as well as counseling about nutrition and eating habits. Women need to be proactive about seeking care, Maine says, since doctors—and especially primary care physicians—often overlook problematic eating behaviors in older women.
"There's really a lot of help available, but women have to find it," Maine says. "It's not going to come to them, unfortunately." A good place to start, she adds, is the National Eating Disorders Association (www.nationaleatingdisorders.org).
Butrym sought treatment in 2003. She recovered, but her life stresses snowballed: She failed to receive workers' compensation for her accident injuries, and she wound up losing her job in a hospital lab. She started purging again, and she has cycled out of inpatient and outpatient treatment since then.
Butrym is currently in recovery, and going back to school to study public health. "I'm excited about having a new career and having a new life," she says. "That's what recovery and therapy is all about, … realizing and seeing that you're more important than that number on the scale, or the number of wrinkles you have. You have more to give people than that superficial life."

Unable to find an acceptable suitor for HIP Health Plan of New Jersey, state officials are liquidating the deeply indebted HMO they seized late last year.
About 144,000 commercial subscribers have until the end of this month to find new coverage. Another 21,000 HIP Medicaid enrollees have been transferred to another HMO, which the state has not named. New Jersey regulators had previously rejected HIP of New York's takeover proposal as "speculative."
Meanwhile, in Texas, a state judge placed 17,000-member WellChoice Health Plan in receivership after it lost nearly $6 million in 1997 and 1998. The state later approved a bid by PacifiCare of Texas to absorb WellChoice's subscribers.

Interpreting CEA Levels
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
I have stage 4 colon cancer. At the beginning of chemotherapy, my CEA number was 180. After two series of chemo, the CEA number is 2.0. I know it doesn't mean that I'm cancer free, but can you tell me what it really means? Does it mean remission? Typically, how long am I likely to stay at that level? (2.0)
James M. Metz, MD, Editor-in-Chief of OncoLink and Assistant Professor of Radiation Oncology at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, responds:
CEA is a type of tumor marker, which is a substance that is produced by the body in response to cancer or produced by cancer itself. These �markers� are not always specific to one cancer and in many cases are present at lower levels without cancer being present or elevated due to other conditions. (Read more about tumor markers.)
When we follow patients after treatment for colon cancer, physicians look at a variety of parameters to determine if someone is free of disease. This includes evaluating any symptoms, performing a complete physical exam, getting regular radiologic scans, colonoscopies and following specific blood work. The CEA in your case is one part of the puzzle. It is not a good screening test, but very helpful in following patients that have undergone treatment when it was initially elevated. It is excellent news that the CEA has decreased from 180 to 2. The CEA is a good marker to follow in your case to determine disease activity. Most importantly we look at trends. The CEA can bounce up and down a little, but an upward trend over time in multiple measurements could mean something is going on that would require additional tests. There is no magic number of how long it is expected to stay at that level. However, we hope it does as long as possible or permanently.

Palin returns to Fox News praising Sen. Cruz
Sarah Palin wants Republicans in Congress to let Sen. Ted Cruz have his say.
In Palin's first appearance back on Fox News on Monday, there was a bit of Tea Party love traded between the former Alaska governor and the freshman Republican as Palin and Cruz said nice things about each other.
"Let someone like a Sen. Cruz have some say in these policies and in this debate," Palin said as she and the Fox & Friends crew interviewed the Texan. "Don't stifle his voice. ... Let him speak."
Over the weekend, Palin told evangelical conservatives at the Faith & Freedom Coalition conference that Congress should be on "cruise control," meaning "Ted Cruz control."
The senator has created a stir in Washington in just a few short months, ticking off Republicans and Democrats with his outspokenness. Cruz and Palin have a deep history: She gave him a crucial endorsement last year in the Republican primary for Senate over Texas Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst, the GOP establishment favorite.
Cruz praised Palin in return on the Fox News show, saying she has set an example for others with the "fearlessness with which you have advocated conservative principles."

Reluctant: Koleszar vs. Goliath Bell
Democrat Steve Koleszar's Achilles heel against the 58th District incumbent may not be Koleszar's modest $50K stash against Rob Bell's massive $300K war chest. It may not be that the 58th is a Republican redistricting dream. It may not even be Koleszar's own description of Bell as "very professional, very polished."
It may be the tie.
Steve Koleszar doesn't strike one as a flashy guy, yet he's wearing a tie festooned with green, red, and yellow hand-holding children over the words "Children First" against a navy background. Rob Bell hasn't sported such an accessory lately.
"I have a vanity about ties," admits Koleszar, who's served on the Albemarle School Board for 10 years. "Whenever I go to conferences, I get education-related ties." His favorite has books. "I like that because my mother was a librarian," he explains.
Perhaps it's that earnestness in the face of conventional wisdom that led Koleszar to challenge Bell. "I was hoping someone else would step up– and no one did," confesses Koleszar. "I didn't want him to run unopposed again."
Koleszar seems quite content on the School Board, and he likes the fact that eight people can work together and see tangible results. That's not the case with the 100 members of the House of Delegates in Richmond. "People say you're stepping up, but it would be a step down," he says.
So why run? That's where necktie obstinancy kicks in. "Delegate Bell voted against Governor Warner's budget– the biggest issue in the past 10 years, and he was on the wrong side," says Koleszar.
Koleszar refuses to see himself as a sacrificial lamb. "I use the analogy David and Goliath," he counters. "A lot of people are afraid of Rob Bell as formidable with so much money. But I have my slingshot–" the people in the district who he says want change.
He might start with the district. It gerrymanders from Scottsville to part of Fluvanna, Orange, and Greene and back to northern Albemarle. "I thought this was just interesting to politicos like me," smiles Koleszar. "In talking to people, they say this doesn't make sense."
Koleszar started his political path as a liberal or "Rockefeller" Republican– until the 1964 convention when ultra-conservative Barry Goldwater clinched the nomination and his supporters booed Nelson Rockefeller as he made his concession speech. "I wrote in my diary, 'I ceased to be a Republican today,'" he reminisces.
Certainly the 58th District candidates offer clear choices. "We're in two different worlds," says Koleszar. "Rob Bell is a prosecutor. As a school board member and businessman, I think about building things." Indeed, one Koleszar sign reads, "Schools, Not Jails."
Koleszar is into raised expectations. "We've raised the expectations of the children who were failing," he says, and by focusing on them, the whole school system benefited.
"I'm expecting voters to rise to my expectations," he says. "Politicians seem to think everybody is an idiot."
Clearly Koleszar does not.

I have made this layout for todays Heritage Challenge on the DD blog. It is all about wheels. Specifically those from your childhood or perhaps your parents childhood or youth. My page shows one of our little boys in 1974 riding this little tractor and pulling the much larger old pedal car. We got the petal car at the base Thrift Store for Michael when he was four and I do believe that all of the children had more fun pulling it and trying to tear it up & fix it up than they did riding in it! We had a travel trailer at the time, so that is what made our boys want to pull things behind their riding toys I suppose. The pronunciation of the words cracked me up . . . I had written them on the back of the photo 38 years ago!
Journaling: Kenny at two & one half years old was something to behold to say the least . . . a free spirit doesnt begin to cover it! Pure joy is on his sweet little face so I just had to pull out my trusty old Yashika camera and snap a few photos. Kens comment when I asked him what he was doing was this . . . my pullin my frailer with my fractor. We were stationed at Fort Monmouth, New Jersey in the great little neighborhood next door to the Radels and their three little boys . . . our three boys were in little boy heaven!

Listen free for 30 days
The Whoopie Pie Affair
Warning: Before you even consider listening to this, understand that this is a story about a guy that is large, feels he is in charge, and is ready to kick some butt. In truth, he is essentially deaf, almost blind, socially handicapped, and has little sense of smell to boot. Add to that his basic disregard for proper attire and you have one humorous, heartfelt, and, at times, moving story. Okay maybe not that heartfelt or moving, but it may all depend on how you look at things. If you can get past the loud Hawaiian shirts, shorts, and glaring white knee socks and sandals, then you can get to the meat and potatoes of what is coming at you.
It is a diverse and respectful viewpoint of life, both in and out of the Amish community, and how the Plain Folk and English view each other.
In the first volume, The Whoopie Affair, listeners will meet G, the erstwhile suburban hit man, and Eli, the Amish blacksmith.
Two totally different men. Two totally different families. Two entirely separate worlds.
One destiny.
What happens when this unlikely dynamic duo go about solving the mystery of the missing whoopie pies? Plenty of mirth, merriment, malevolence, and muck, but above all, good clean family fun. This is a story that can be listened to by anyone of any age, from 9 to 99. So saddle up, get in the SUV or horse and buggy, put on your wrap around shades, tighten up those suspenders, fix your ball cap or straw hat on top of your head, and get your sandals - or boots - on! It is time to roll and party with Eli the blacksmith and G the hit man in an adventure you are not soon to forget.
You will never look at a horse and buggy the same way again.

By this time last summer, three victims were electrocuted at Lake of the Ozarks. This summer has not seen the same kind of fatal incidents, but has had its share of close calls.
By this time last summer, three victims were electrocuted at Lake of the Ozarks. This summer has not seen the same kind of fatal incidents, but has had its share of close calls.
According to Mid County Fire Marshall, Chris Bachman, the lake area has seen at least six close calls since July 4.
One of the most serious incidents occurred in Mid County's district on the evening of July 11. According to officials, eight college-aged girls from Kansas City were staying at a friend's lake home near the 35 mile marker. The girls were enjoying a swim around dusk when one girl felt her arm go completely numb. She described the feeling as "My arm went to sleep" to Mid County personnel.
The girl swam with her other arm out of the area where she was feeling the electricity and warned the other swimmers. Two of the other girls swam to a nearby dock and were shocked as they grabbed the dock frame to get out of the water.
In the meantime, one of the other friends had swam to the dock of the home they were staying at and safely got out of the water. The other girls swam safely to that dock and were able to get out of the water quickly.
Mid County Fire Department was contacted the following day. Bachman arrived at the scene and after investigating the area, realized that the electricity was coming from a neighboring dock. The dock had sent out 72 volts into the water.
"If you are in the water and feel tingling, the safest thing to do is to swim away from the dock," Bachman said.
He added that swimming to a nearby dock is not always the safest option since it is impossible to detect with dock the electricity is coming from without the proper tools. He suggests swimming out to an open area and yelling for help. If possible, have friends pick up the swimmer in a boat.
If the girls would have swam to the dock that was emitting the electricity, Bachman said they would have been electrocuted.
Bachman and other area fire officials have been doing their best to educate residents on dock safety. In the past month, he has spoken at the Camdenton Rotary club and a Chamber of Commerce Eggs and Issues breakfast.
Bachman said that due to education, he feels like many residents are taking dock safety seriously and that many are opting to bring their dock up to code even if it is not a requirement.
Mid County wants to remind residents that routine maintenance needs to be done on their dock yearly to check for items such as pivot points in rough water and making sure bonding wires are attached at all pivot points.
"There is maintenance associated with keeping your dock safe," Bachman said.
The dock associated with the July 11 incident has since been rewired and brought up to code.

Northern Beaches Secondary College, Manly Selective Campus
The criteria for defining the notion of 'home' are influenced by an individual's identity. Hence, by exploring my own Macedonian heritage and existing cultural values, the familiarity of home has been expressed through a metaphorical blueprint. The transitory nature of this 'blue home' reflects my family's change in lifestyle from Macedonia to Australia, and the conglomeration of past memories with present experience imprinted on the 'blueprint' reveals a continually developing but genuine representation of home.

Rangers-Maple Leafs PreviewNHL.com @NHLdotcom
GAME: New York Rangers (34-15-8) at Toronto Maple Leafs (27-24-5).
TIME: Saturday, 6 p.m. EST.
Jaromir Jagr is on a hot streak heading into the Olympic break.
He'll look to lead New York to a home-and-home sweep as the Atlantic Division-leading Rangers visit Air Canada Centre to meet the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Jagr scored two power-play goals less than three minutes apart in the second period and added an assist in New York's 4-2 win over Toronto on Friday - the Rangers' fifth straight win and sixth in seven games.
The first goal moved him past New York Islanders great Mike Bossy into sole possession of 16th place on the NHL career list with 574. He added his league-leading 38th goal and has an NHL-best 86 points.
"Well, it doesn't matter how I feel. Sometimes it's a matter of luck," said Jagr, who has five goals and five assists in his last four games. "Sometimes you have so many chances and you can't score and other times you feel like every shot is going to go in. That's the way I have felt the last couple games."
Jagr, who has 1,395 points and is three behind Jari Kurri for second place among European-born NHL players, will play for the Czech Republic at the Turin Games. Teammate Henrik Lundqvist, who leads rookie goalies with 25 wins, will play for Sweden.
"Jaromir Jagr is on fire right now," said Lundqvist, who is four wins shy of the team record for a rookie held by Johnny Bower and Jim Henry. "It's going to be tough for Sweden next week."
Lundqvist, though, is not expected to start in the back end of the home-and-home. Backup and Toronto native Kevin Weekes has won three of four career decisions against the Maple Leafs in his hometown.
Friday's victory also snapped New York's five-game winless streak against Toronto. The Rangers had been 0-4-1 against the Maple Leafs since a 5-1 win on Jan. 13, 2003. New York, though, has lost four straight in Toronto since a 4-3 victory on Oct. 26, 2002.
"They are going to come out harder (Saturday). I'm sure of it," Rangers coach Tom Renney said. "They could've won tonight. The difference was our specialty teams."
Chad Kilger and Darcy Tucker scored Friday for the Maple Leafs, who have lost three of five. Toronto came in with the third-best power play unit in the league, but was 0-for-4 with the man advantage.
New York, meanwhile, went 3-for-7 on the power play and improved to 27-6-4 when scoring a goal with the man advantage
"Their power play is deadly," Toronto defenseman Bryan McCabe said. "Jagr put on a clinic out there."
STANDINGS: Rangers - 76 points, 1st place, Atlantic Division. Maple Leafs - 59 points, 3rd place (tied), 18 PB, Northeast Division.
TEAM LEADERS: Rangers - Jagr, 38 goals, 48 assists and 86 points; Darius Kasparaitis, 79 PIM. Maple Leafs - Tucker, 23 goals; Jason Allison, 38 assists; McCabe, 51 points and 70 PIM.
SPECIAL TEAMS: Rangers - Power play: 17.6 percent (56 for 318), 18th in NHL. Penalty killing: 85.3 percent (291 for 341), 4th. Maple Leafs - Power play: 20.2 percent (70 for 346), 4th. Penalty killing: 80.3 percent (281 for 350), 23rd.
GOALTENDERS: Rangers - Lundqvist (25-7-6, 2 SO, 2.09 GAA); Weekes (9-8-2, 3.04). Maple Leafs - Ed Belfour (21-19-3, 3.31); Mikael Tellqvist (6-5-2, 1, 2.79).
SEASON SERIES: Tied, 1-1.
LAST MEETING: Friday; Rangers, 4-2. At New York, Jagr had two goals and Tom Poti and Petr Sykora also scored for the Rangers.
ROAD/HOME RECORDS: Rangers - 15-9-3 on the road; Maple Leafs - 17-9-2 at home.

OKLAHOMA CITY – Due to budgetary reductions resulting from a decline in municipal sales tax revenue, the Central Oklahoma Transportation and Parking Authority (COTPA) is proposing to eliminate a contracted transportation service known as LINK.
LINK is a contracted service that operates in a limited-service area on Sundays 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. and from 7 p.m. to midnight Monday through Friday. The proposed elimination would not affect regular fixed-route or paratransit services.
"Anytime we're faced with a budget reduction we strive to protect service levels," said Jason Ferbrache, COTPA Administrator and Director of Public Transportation and Parking for the City of Oklahoma City. "People depend on our public transit options to get to work, school and appointments and we take that very seriously. The reduction we are making will eliminate some duplication in weeknight service that exists between fixed-route and LINK and eliminates LINK service entirely on Sunday. We propose to cut where it would impact the fewest customers."
COTPA will conduct public hearings to describe the proposed elimination and to receive public comments. The meetings are scheduled at the hub of the LINK service area, so that opportunities for public comments are more convenient for patrons.
Staff will reexamine the proposed elimination after receiving public comment and will make their final recommendation to the COTPA Board July 1. If approved, changes would go into effect August 1, 2016.
For more information about the proposed service change, visit embarkok.com.

Meet The Hipster Racist Fox News Guest Attacking Neil deGrasse Tyson
Blog ››› ››› SHAUNA THEEL
A frequent Fox News guest who has contributed to a white nationalist website attacked Neil deGrasse Tyson, an astrophysicist and host of FOX's Cosmos, for speaking out about racial profiling he has experienced.
Gavin McInnes, who co-founded Vice but left the company in 2008, reportedly because he was a "liability," said he "hate[s]" Tyson and complained about Tyson stating that he has been racially profiled in stores on the June 3 edition of Fox News' Red Eye:
MCINNES: I hate this guy [...] White liberal nerds love this guy so much, he could defecate on them like Martin Bashir's fantasies and they would dance in the streets. All he does is, he's drunk with adulation. And he talks about things like "when I was young in New York I would get racially profiled when I'd go into stores." Back then he looked like he was in The Warriors. He had a huge afro and a cutoff shirt and New York was a war zone. Sorry, you fit the profile.
McInnes was apparently referring to a panel discussion at the Center for Inquiry in which Tyson discussed how many adults tried to steer him away from a career as a scientist as a child, and said that he has been racially profiled in stores (starting 1 hour, 1 minute and 30 seconds in):
McInnes used to write for VDARE.com, which the Southern Poverty Law Center identifies as a "White Nationalist" "hate group," and stated in 2011 "I love me some VDARE." In one post for VDARE.com, McInnes compared a Canadian university to a "madrassa" because it wouldn't host Jared Taylor, a white nationalist who advocates for founding all-white towns.
McInnes currrently writes for Taki's Magazine, a "paleoconservative" website that publishes overtly racist articles including ones by neo-confederates. At Taki's, McInnes has referred to Asian-Americans as "slopes" and "riceballs," suggested Muslims are "stupider" and "more violent" due to inbreeding, defended blackface because some minstrel shows were "just mimicking black people" and "fun," backed the racist comments of Duck Dynasty's Phil Robertson, and argued that to yell the n-word at someone is "not racist" but "just very rude." He also owns his own website, StreetCarnage.com, where he defended Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy's racist comments because Bundy was just "wonder[ing]" if African-Americans were better off under slavery. In 2013, 18 Milling Rising gave him a "Lifetime Achievement Award in Hipster Racism," a brand of racism marked by making "ironically" racist "jokes."
He has also compared being a single mother to "child abuse," claimed that women who join the workforce are generally not doing what "they naturally want to do," and said that having short hair is like "rape."
Greg Gutfeld, co-host of The Five and host of Red Eye, is one of McInnes' biggest fans and hosts him often. According to a Nexis search, Fox News' Hannity has also hosted McInnes frequently -- 18 times so far in 2014.

Jim Hoft: Dumbest Man on the Internet?
Blog ››› ››› BEN DIMIERO
With a few exceptions, the upper echelon of the conservative blogosphere is a mess.
Breitbart's "Big" websites traffic in misleading non-scandals and have published people like 9-11 truther Michael Moriarty, racist penis-enlarger/vagina-tightener Kevin Pezzi, and former SNL actress/spouter-of-incomprehensible nonsense Victoria Jackson. NewsBusters and The Media Research Center spend a lot of time finding the liberal bias in television shows that don't treat their gay characters as ostracized sub-humans.
Atlas Shrugs is run by a woman that is haunted at every turn by Islamic crescents, and whose hatred for the president once compelled her to claim that his penchant for "purple" (actually blue) neckties meant that Democrats were "Flying the Gangsta Colors at the White House." Confederate Yankee Bob Owens - who also writes for Breitbart and the Washington Examiner - openly speculates about whether he and an army of "freshly-experienced combat veterans and graying patriots" are going to have to start killing people to combat the "slavery" of health care reform.
But despite all this stiff competition, Jim Hoft (aka Gateway Pundit) stands out as uniquely incompetent. Hoft runs with (or spawns) almost every inane story that bubbles up in the conservative blogosphere, has proven that he has absolutely no vetting process for the sources he cites, and apparently has a hard time with basic reading comprehension.
Hoft -- who has modeled for a John Deere catalogue and "played a cop on 'Unsolved Mysteries' twice" -- has "never had any training in politics or journalism," but now has the "#8 ranked political blog in the United States" that is "frequently mentioned on top national news shows."
Indeed, in spite of the fact that Hoft embarrasses himself on a near-daily basis and has shown time and again that he is either willfully dishonest or staggeringly inept, he has managed to carve out a role as one of the most-read, most respected writers in the conservative blogosphere. And his influence extends beyond the blogs. Hoft's stories are regularly featured on Fox News' Fox Nation website, and he has been cited as a source on-air by Fox News on multiple occasions.
Hoft's ongoing position of influence in the conservative media is evidence that the entire movement is intellectually bankrupt.
Who are you going to believe - Jim Hoft or your lying eyes?
Hoft regularly posts innocuous images that he twists into nonsensical attacks on Democrats and progressives.
When you look at this picture of Obama, what do you see?
If you answered "the president scratching his face" or "Obama holding up two fingers," you are right. But according to Hoft, that is actually a picture of the "child president" "flipping off" House Minority Leader John Boehner. In a July post, Hoft announced in a headline that "Obama Flips Boehner The Bird During Racine Speech," and explained that Obama "just can't help himself." It's unfathomable that it is necessary to explain this to an influential blogger (or any adult, for that matter), but it is not possible to "flip the bird" with multiple fingers extended on the same hand.
How about this one:
This, of course, is Rev. Al Sharpton speaking at a rally, perhaps waving to someone. But in Hoft's world, this is Sharpton giving a "Nazi salute." After Sharpton spoke at an August 28 rally in Washington, D.C., Hoft posted video of the speech - and the above still photo -- under the headline "Heil Al!... Sharpton Gives Nazi Salute at Rally?" Hoft was upset that the "media ignored this" shocking story.
What about this image of the Nuclear Security Summit logo?
While the logo may seem non-controversial to you, Hoft's eagle eyes spotted "an Islamic crest" hidden in the design. This was especially "weird" to Hoft, because "we all know [Obama's] a good Christian." (This particular bit of conservative stupidity, which Fox News and others ran with, was debunked by Jon Stewart, who noted that the "inspiration for the logo is actually the Rutherford-Bohr model of the atom.")
As long as you don't look at his evidence, Hoft's arguments hold up well
Another of Hoft's neat tricks is to make an outlandish argument and then cite evidence that actually refutes the point he's trying to make.
In the heat of the "Ground Zero mosque" controversy, Hoft purported to "fact check" the AP's assertion that there already exists a mosque five blocks from Ground Zero. Hoft claimed that the mosque in question "was evicted years ago according to their website," and excerpted the following statement as evidence:
The only way Hoft's "fact check" held up was if you stopped reading after the first sentence. But as the rest of the statement made clear, the operators of the mosque "did not have to close the Masjid" and found a location "just two doors down" from the original. Hoft either did not bother to read past the first sentence, or he did read it, decided it didn't matter, and assumed his readers to be too stupid or gullible to know the difference.
In July, conservatives spent a week lying about the Obama administration supposedly "supporting" the release of Lockerbie bomber Abdel Baset al-Megrahi. The talking point was completely demolished when the State Department released its correspondence with the Scottish Ministry of Justice, which stated in plain English that the administration was "not prepared to support Megrahi's release on compassionate release or bail." Undeterred, Hoft linked to the State Department letter and declared that the administration "preferred" Megrahi's release.
This up-is-down method of argumentation once led Hoft to accuse Desmond Tutu of being a "Jew-hater." The article that he linked to as evidence of Tutu's supposed anti-Semitism was about the Anti-Defamation League urging a Minnesota university to allow Tutu "to speak just days after it was revealed that he had been disinvited because of fears he might offend Jews." The article quoted the ADL's national director as saying that Tutu "certainly is not an anti-Semite and should not be so characterized and therefore refused a platform."
No filter, no standards, much embarrassment
At this point, you might be thinking, "where does Hoft come up with all of this crap?" With disturbing frequency, the answer to that question seems to be either "he saw it on Free Republic," or "someone emailed it to him and he didn't bother looking into it."
On June 7, Hoft ran an article with the breathless headline, "HEAVY WEAPONS Discovered in Cargo of Mavi Marmara." (The Mavi Marmara was part of a Palestinian aid flotilla that had been raided days earlier by Israeli commandos while en route to Gaza.) He linked to a video that, in his words, "shows the heavy weapons discovered in the Mavi Marmara Gaza Flotilla ship."
After two minutes of research, we discovered that the video in question predated the Mavi Marmara raid by at least one year. By the time we posted, Hoft had offered a rare sort-of correction, crossing out the entire post and adding a note informing readers "This email that is making the rounds today is a HOAX." (Note: the post appears to have since been deleted.)
All that could have been avoided had he done a bare minimum of fact checking before basing an incendiary article on a hoax chain email.
But Hoft's problems with source vetting go much further. In April, Hoft was one of the first blogs to pick up a story about French President Nicolas Sarkozy supposedly saying that Obama "might be insane." Hoft described the story as a "recent report supposedly circulating the Kremlin." The "report" was from the European Union Times, which, as we detailed, is a ragingly anti-Semitic (and 9-11 truther) website with a section devoted to "Jews" (never a good sign) filled with incendiary articles and images, such as the one below:
Hoft provided no explanation or apology for credibly citing an openly anti-Semitic website.
Promoting the work of bigots is actually a specialty of Hoft's. He spent most of last December promoting smears on Department of Education official Kevin Jennings from anti-gay group MassResistance, which the Southern Poverty Law Center has designated as a "hate group."
And, as you might expect from someone who bases stories on chain emails, he also ends up promoting scam artists. In May, Hoft hyped a press release "warning" about "global cooling" from the Space and Science Research Center (SSRC) -- a source he described as "the leading independent research organization in the US on the subject of climate change."
As we discovered thanks to a quick Google search, the SSRC is run by John L Casey, a man with no formal background or experience with climate science who Hoft's fellow climate science deniers have labeled "a scam artist trying to get his hands in your pockets." But Casey's press release reinforced Hoft's already ironclad opposition to climate science, so he ran with it.
That's not journalism; it's hackish stenography, and it's just one of the countless embarrassingly incompetent Jim Hoft posts from this year alone.
If you can think of an absurd right-wing scandal, Hoft promoted it
When he isn't giving a leg up to scam artists and bigots, Hoft can be seen spawning or dutifully promoting almost every absurd "scandal" that bubbles up in conservative media circles.
An abbreviated list:
The hilarious fabrication that Obama wanted to "ban sport fishing":
Andrew Breitbart's smear of then-USDA official Shirley Sherrod:
(Hoft also "broke" the related fabrication - uncritically repeated by Fox & Friends - that NAACP president Ben Jealous was at Sherrod's speech.)
The "ludicrous" report that the U.S. was "giving land back to Mexico":
The smear that Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf "threatened" the U.S.:
Dick Morris' subsequently-retracted fable about Janet Reno attempting to blackmail Bill Clinton over Waco:
The utterly false story that Michelle Obama stocked the White House library with socialist books:
During a March Fox News interview, Obama defended a provision in the Senate version of the health care bill that, in Obama's words, said that "if a state has been affected by a natural catastrophe, that has created a special health care emergency in that state, they should get help." Obama added that the provision "also affects Hawaii, which went through an earthquake." Hoft got the ball rolling on the claim that Obama lied about the earthquake...even though there was an earthquake in Hawaii in 2006. Like many other Hoft scoops, this was uncritically forwarded by Fox News:
Hoft also ran with the absolutely absurd and baseless smear that alleged Times Square bomber Faisal Shahzad was a "registered Democrat" (though he later updated his headline to claim that Shahzad was merely a "Bush hater").
Questionable moral judgments to go with unquestionably awful journalistic integrity
Hoft's disregard for the truth and journalistic integrity is paired with an irrational hatred of all Democrats and progressives (and the policies they espouse), which frequently leads him to make questionable moral judgments.
In June, Secretary of State Clinton announced that for the first time in history, the United States would be included in the annual State Department report detailing human trafficking and the modern day slave trade, which found that "up to 17,500 people are trafficked each year" in the United States. However, the disturbing reality of human trafficking within our national borders was lost on Hoft, who instead attacked Clinton's announcement as "America-hating."
Hoft has shown that there are no depths he won't sink to in order to smear the people that he disagrees with. In May, President Obama honored slain Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl by signing the "Daniel Pearl Freedom of the Press Act." Obama's remarks at the signing made clear that he was honoring Pearl's memory (along with Pearl's widow and son.) Hoft took an out of context video clip of Obama saying Pearl's death "captured the world's imagination" in order to suggest that Obama was celebrating Pearl's murder. Hoft purported to correct Obama's "crazy sick" interpretation of Pearl's death by writing: "No, Barack. It was horrifying."
For this contemptible post, Hoft was rewarded with a prominent link on Fox Nation's website.
All the examples included in this post are from the past year, which is to say that Hoft makes embarrassing, credibility-killing errors on an almost daily basis. If the conservative media had any standards whatsoever, Hoft would be an afterthought in the conservative blogosphere -- a solitary, angry man screaming into the void.
But instead he holds a position of influence. He often drives the conversation not just online, but also on cable news. This is proof positive that the conservative media aren't impressed by "facts" and "reality."
They prefer shameless hacks like Jim Hoft.
It is a testament to Hoft's unending torrent of follies that I neglected to include the time -- last week, in fact -- that he attacked Mike Castle for the time he supposedly "voted to impeach" George W. Bush. Quite obviously, Castle, a Republican, never voted to impeach Bush. Rather, as we noted, he voted to effectively kill an impeachment resolution by Rep. Dennis Kucinich.

Violet Fizz
Well folks, the eve of the new year is upon us. For some it's already here. For everyone I wish you a happy, healthy and prosperous new year. Though, before we get too carried away with the revelry I think there's still time for one last cocktail. I'm going to take a quick look at the Violet Fizz from The Bubbly Bar as I promised earlier in the week.
Violet Fizz (The Bubbly Bar)
4 oz Brut Sekt or Prosecco 1/2 oz Monin Violet Syrup 1 oz Delicate Gin Juice of 1/2 Lemon 1/2 oz Pasteurized Egg White 2 Pieces of Candied Violet for Garnish
1) Pour the prosecco into a cocktail glass 2) Combine other ingredients in a shaker 3) Shake with ice until well chilled 4) Strain into cocktail glass 5) Garnish with Candied Violet
Reading the recipe for this drink in the book it sounded really good. Plus it's a twist on the Ramos Gin Fizz, one of my favorites. Mixing up the drink I ran into a few problems, but nothing that some recipe tweaking can't handle. First, I don't have Monin violet syrup. I do, however, have a bottle of Creme de Violette that would be delightful here. Second, I don't have any prosecco on hand and I'm comfortable enough to admit I've never heard of sekt. After a bit of googling it seems that sekt is the German word for sparkling wine. Now you know. (I'll let you insert the G.I. Joe reference) Not to worry, I'm sure the Gruet Brut I've been mixing with this week will work fine.
Third, I don't think the Creme de Violette adds as much sweetness as the Monin syrup would. In my subsequent attempts I added a bit of simple syrup which sorted that problem out nicely. Finally, my drink didn't come together nearly as well as the one pictured. When I poured the shaken components into the Champagne, I ended up with about six ounces of foam. Not optimal. I switched up the method and mixed it like you would a Ramos Gin Fizz. I mixed the ingredients, poured them into a collins glass and topped it with the Champagne. Same result, way too much foam. I tried reducing the amount of egg white I added to no avail. Simple enough, I just dropped the egg white all together and moved on.
Now that you've patiently read this rambling story I'd like to make a point as to why I wrote it all down. When you're looking at cocktail recipes and you don't have the exact ingredients needed or don't like the results, improvise! Whatever you're mixing should make you happy first and foremost and only after that adhear to classic recipes. Cocktail recipes, as with those for cooking, are just guidelines after all.
Violet Fizz (Cocktail Hacker)
4 oz Brut Champagne 1 oz Gin (Hendricks) 1/2 oz Creme de Violette 1/4 oz Simple Syrup 3/4 oz Lemon Juice Lemon Twist for Garnish
1) Add the Champagne to a cocktail glass 2) Combine other ingredients in a shaker 3) Shake with ice until well chilled 4) Pour gin mixture into the cocktail glass 5) Garnish with a lemon twist
So there you have my recipe. I have to say, I really enjoy this drink. It's reminiscent of an Aviation, another favorite, which is definitely not a bad thing. The color is a light sea green and the Creme de Violette gives the aroma a very delicate floral note. The flavor is really well balanced and harmonious, with each ingredient coming through. Note that I opted for a delicate gin as the original recipe suggested. Good call. Too much punch from the gin would overwhelm the Creme de Violette and Champagne. Finally the effervescence from the Champagne is really refreshing.
Happy New Year all. Enjoy your drinks tonight.
