The most reliable place I know to take your vehicle for any service or repair. Thank you Erik and Melanie!
Family oriented business and the customer service here is great. Highly recommend this car shop , they take pride in their work. I had a problem with my belt and they fixed it right away my car was making a funny noise , they fixed it then the noise proceed I came back in and they took care of the work after finding out it was something else wrong with it.
Professional service always. A service shop you can trust, which to me is very important.
If you want it done right, this is the place to go!
Very professional and knowledgeable with over the top service. 100% satisfied every time I have them do work for me.
We've been coming to this family owned shop around 20 yrs. & we've never had to worry about being taken advantage of. I've never been able to say that about another shop. We moved about an hour away a couple years ago & we still bring both our cars back to Todd. On my last visit (Jan 2016) I waited with a couple who drove down from Virginia because of a friends recommendation. For us, It's priceless to have someone we trust. They have always told us what they found; what can wait & what can't. We both drive used cars, & they have a lot of miles.

So thanks to swelling on my vocal chords due to a respiratory infection, I've been ordered to cease ALL unnecessary verbal communication! D@mn! This is going to be a rough next few days for me especially since I TALK for a living! Double URGH!!!!!
I still haven't heard back from "the gig" but I hope that's only because one of my references is out of town. Or that God has something else in mind for me. And given that I've got quite a few clients for my tutoring gig, it's not like I'm not staying busy.
What I have NOT been doing is ANY programming thanks to my laptop becoming infected with a virus (and yes I have anti-viral software that ain't worth squat!). So after trying to get that working correctly for 5 days, I finally got most of it together and have given up on the rest. And given that I can work on 3 operating systems, I'm now doing ALL Of my work in Ubuntu, which I blogged about previously. Honestly, this is the BEST OS ever and I should have converted everything over to it a LONG time ago. Unfortunately, while I can convert any of my Mac/iWorks and Windows/Microsoft Office data/information to the LibreOffice the Ubuntu equivalent of those software programs, neither of those "reads" Ubuntu data. But that's cool because I figured out a way around that too, so it's all good!
Other news is that I have a Komen Breast cancer event coming up soon, so I'm excited about that. My Health Informatics class has also been halted indefinitely because THEIR software got infected too (I think that's how my computer became infected!). So I haven't done much "academically" lately but apparently I need to chill out for a minute anyway!

You talk too much!!!
*Image from google images
This is a phrase I've heard pretty much ALL My life, LOL!!! Sometimes it's a good thing and other times......other times it results in me being banned from a certain VERY popular premed website, LOL!!
I thought about this recently after I made a comment on oldpremeds about that certain premed website. Then I remembered that the reason I got banned in the first place was not so much due to my VERY vocal opinions on what I thought was a racist post in the pre-Allopathic section. But was due to long standing "run-ins" with a certain Sam Jackson character from the movie Djanjo acting, former oldpremed member who had moderator powers on that popular premed site. Yeah. And as Janet Hubert said when asked about her fued with Will Smith, "if you want me to blow smoke up your a$$, you need to pay me for it". Now, I'm thinking there must be a way to disagree and have an intelligent debate without folks needing to feel like they should have their a$$e$ kissed in the process because as anyone reading my blog knows by now, I ain't really into that. Otherwise, I'd still gainfully employed in Big Pharma. And YES, I'm CLEAR I'll have to learn to bite my tongue in med school and beyond!
And speaking of jobs, I was VERY pleasantly suprised to see a VERY familiar face at the interview, a woman who had been a PhD student in a lab I did a rotation in for my Pharm degree. And it was the BEST interview I'd had in a LONG time even though we talked a LOT about things that had nothing to do with the job itself, LOL!!! Yeah, I'm thinking that God HAS to has his hands ALL OVER THIS GIG! :)
Now I'll end with a shout out to RUN-DMC and hope to post soon about my start date on my new gig!

Mother-Daughter tag team!
So it turns out that the school I want DD to attend for college just happens to also be the school where I'm applying to the PhD program in Informatics/Epidemiology. And why this just now occurred to me I don't know, but I'm sure DD is on some level, freaked out by the prospect of us being at the same school, LOL!! Oh well! :)
Other news is that the Informatics position I blogged about last week is pretty much a done deal. Okay, I don't know that for sure, but I'm pretty optimistic that that's the case! In the meantime, I've got a TON of papers and courses to review in preparation because I intend to hit a "home run" in this interview for a job which will be a financial high point in my career. And given how bad the economy is for many people, I'm so thoroughly blessed to be in this position!
Speaking of Informatics, I attended a course in GIS at my future PhD school yesterday and like all the other things I'm learning in and around Informatics, it was a LOT of fun! And in an even bigger irony is the fact that a spot opened up for the course 2 hours before it started at a point where I was preparing a resume for gigs in Histology/Pathology, the job area I do NOT want. But when I got that email, I took that as a sign from God that I needed to stay the Informatics/Epidemiology/Data Analysis course (and GIS in the context of disease surveillance is VERY applicable to it) and have faith that God was going to see things through for me. The confirmation came while I was at the GIS training and I was contacted about the Informatics gig for the final in-person interview. And the fact that the new gig is a short 40 minute commute away on the metro (which is 2 minutes from our house) and 1 min to the job on the other end, was simply the icing on the cake! I was DREADING the prospects of commuting every day back and forth for at least 1.5 hours one way, so this revelation was just what I needed to hear!
Now I'm trying to figure how da' heck I'm going to do all the things on my plate now, working full-time, tutoring on the side, AND taking 2 PhD courses!! Oh yeah, and squeezing in some MCAT prep time too! URGH!!! But getting used to juggling is something I'm okay with since I'll have to do this as an MD/PhD student in the future!!!
Saturday, February 2, 2013
No, I haven't secured a full-time gig just yet, but I did get a call this morning about a 6 figure gig, contracting with a federal agency (And people WRONGLY think you can't get paid working with the Gov't, LOL!!). Now this gig will literally mean that my professional life has come full circle since I'll be indirectly working with data from the Pharmaceutical industry. And it's full circle because I originally moved to DC to accept a position with an agency directly involved with the FDA and Big Pharma!
So what's this gig that's pays so well and looks absolutely fabulous from the "outside"? The formal title is Research Informatics Specialist which means that EVERYTHING I'm learning now in Informatics and 90% of my formal education is directly applicable to this job, assuming the job description is correct! And they'll pay for me to take PhD courses in Informatics too! But what I'm most excited about is the prospect of playing dress up for work.
Now I'm trying not to get all geeked up about this gig because that hasn't gotten me ANYWHERE lately, LOL!!! But like I've mentioned before and never really practiced, I'm going to go with the flow so to speak, while staying "prayed up" so that when the time comes, I'll make a good job decision!!!
Speaking of money, here's one of my all time favorite money songs sang by the Ojay's from the 1970's on Soooooooooooooooooooooooooullllll Traaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaain:

Vintage Style Bath Remodel
The upstairs bathroom in this Calgary renovation is shared by the client's two daughters and was poorly laid out and lacked any storage. We reworked the floor plan and eliminated the bathtub in favor of a custom walk-in shower, moved the toilet to tuck in under the eaves and added some beautiful painted custom cabinets. Dual vanity sinks ensure there is plenty of space for each girl to get ready on those hectic morning. The hexagon floor tile and clean white subway tile in the shower were selected to go with the heritage of the home which is a beautiful 1920's stunner in the city's Scarborough community.
Dramatic Powder Room Remodel
We also renovated the powder room in this home. Keeping the original hardwood and trim details, we added some serious drama with a custom made bold red and cherry wood vanity. The quartzite countertop and backsplash pair nicely with the wall mount faucet. And the gold detail in the wallpaper is subtle but shimmers in the light coming from the fabulous wall sconces.

Kopser, Kling, Wolff Campaigns to Continue Veterans Outreach with Blockwalking, VFW Visit
(San Antonio, TX) — This Sunday Joseph Kopser (TX-21), Steven Kling (SD-25), and Judge Nelson Wolff (Bexar County), will continue their joint veterans outreach with a coordinated canvass of veterans and military families and a VFW visit in San Antonio.
The veterans outreach program, as reported in the Houston Chronicle, was created to get military families more engaged in the political process through genuine engagement on the issues, not buzzwords and platitudes that so many campaigns have used. "We're trying to change that dynamic," Judge Wolff told the Chronicle.
Kopser, Kling, and Wolff will meet at 1:00pm for a veterans-focused blockwalk. At 4:00pm, Kling and Kopser will sit down at VFW Post #76 in San Antonio to meet with fellow veterans and hear their concerns. Details for both events are below:

Bernhard (Buddy) Elias, the first cousin and last close relative of teenage Holocaust diarist Anne Frank, has died at age 89.
The Anne Frank Fonds said Wednesday that Elias died peacefully Monday at his home in Basel, Switzerland, surrounded by his family.
Anne Frank became famous for a diary she kept while her family went into hiding from the Nazis in Amsterdam when she was 13. The Jewish teenager died in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in March, 1945.
The son of Anne's aunt, Elias presided over the Basel-based Anne Frank Fonds, which holds the rights to her diary. The book, describing the family's life in hiding, has been read by millions since it was first published in 1947.
Elias was born in 1925 in Frankfurt am Main, Germany and moved to Basel six years later when his father took over the Swiss branch of a German company.
Anne Frank, who was born in 1929 in Frankfurt and moved to Amsterdam in 1933 with her parents and her sister, Margot, paid regular visits to her relatives in Switzerland before the Second World War broke out.
Elias said he played a Punch and Judy show with Anne when in 1938 he saw her for the last time before the Nazis closed in and they had to go into hiding.
"She suggested I should put on that dress in grandmother's wardrobe and imitate her," he told Associated Press in an interview in 2007. "She was very amused by this and laughed a lot."
Elias told AP that after the war he read Anne's diary with astonishment. So did her father, Otto Frank, who unlike his wife and daughters survived the Nazi horrors.
"He read it a few pages per day only. He was overwhelmed by what his child had to say," Elias said. "He used to say, 'I didn't know my daughter until I read her diary.' "
Elias had a career as an actor and ice-skating comedian, which brought him fame beyond Switzerland. As star comedian with the English ice show Holiday on Ice, he toured the world between 1947 and 1961.
Starting in 1996 he presided over the Anne Frank Fonds, created in 1963 by Otto Frank.
The foundation's support for a wide range of charitable activities against any form of discrimination, racism and anti-Semitism was as important to Elias as safeguarding Anne Frank's writings. He was eager to prevent commercial exploitation of her name.
"Many people want to make money with Anne Frank," he told AP.
Elias said he once stopped a company from producing Anne Frank jeans. He also refused to cede rights to the diary for a Spanish musical telling his cousin's story.
The diary, which was translated into about 75 languages, attracts huge interest in the United States, Europe and Japan because it carries a strong message of peace, Elias said.
Elias leaves his wife, two sons and five grandchildren. The foundation said a private funeral would be held.

Q. What services do you provide at the Pemberton Medical Clinic?
A. We are a full service family practice clinic. Some of these services include:
Physical examinations
Pre-natal and post-natal care
Specialist referrals
IUD insertions
Chronic Disease Management
Drivers medicals
Aviation medicals
Minor treatments and surgeries
Uninsured services
All of our doctors also provide a full spectrum of emergency care for our patients 24/7 through the Pemberton Emergency Department.
Pemberton Medical Clinic Policy
The Doctor's of British Columbia believe in a patient's right to access high quality medical care. Medically necessary care should be publicly funded. Unfortunately Medical Services Plan (MSP) cannot afford to pay for every possible type of service provided by doctors. Due to deficiencies in the medical coverage provided by MSP, it has become necessary to modify the way the doctors provide services. Consequently, our clinic must make the following adjustments to the way we run our practice.
Q. What happens if I can't make my appointment?
A. Please cancel your appointment either by calling the office on (604) 894-6454, or by e-mail (link). In a busy practice, missed appointments due to last minute cancellations and 'no shows' are very disruptive. A charge for the missed visit may be requested. Please notify the office as soon as possible should you need to change/cancel an appointment, as another patient will be grateful to have it.
Q. I have an appointment tomorrow but my child is sick, can I bring him/her with me to get seen at the same time?
A. No. This will cause the doctor to run behind schedule. You may however forfeit your appointment and give it to your child, and rebook your appointment for a later date.
Q. What shall I do if I have more than one medical problems or illnesses?
A. Doctors will deal with one medically necessary problem or illness per visit. Please do not expect the doctors to deal with several unrelated medical concerns at one visit. Please tell at the start of your appointment what your concerns are so that the doctor can deal with the most important one at the visit. If you wish to discuss another concern that you have that is not related to the main problem, then please book another appointment.
Q. Can I get my prescriptions over the phone or without an appointment?
A. Prescriptions will not automatically be renewed over the phone. If you wish to avoid the inconvenience of coming in for prescription renewals, and it is safe to do so, the doctor may be able to renew your prescription over the phone. The cost of this service is $35 per phone call. This service is NOT covered by MSP.
Q. I just found out I'm pregnant, what should I do?
A. You can book an appointment with your family doctor to review your options or set up your first prenatal appointment.
Q. How can I get my form signed by my doctor?
A. Please book an appointment. If you need to have a form completed or signed, please give it to our staff before your appointment. A reasonable fee will be charged for all forms and letters.
Q. What do I do if I don't have medical insurance?
A. Our medical practice provides care to our patients, including diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of medical conditions covered by the Medical Services Plan (MSP) of British Columbia. There are many services that the Ministry of Health considers non-essential and are therefore 'uninsured'. Although the Ministry of Health does not pay for these valuable services, we are pleased to provide these services to our patients. 'Uninsured' services that are provided in addition to an 'insured' medical service may be billed directly to patients.
'Uninsured' services are billed at set rates according to the value of the service, which depends on the time, effort and expertise required to complete the requested service. Please be aware that your doctor assumes the responsibility and legal liability for all statements made on any document signed for you, no matter how trivial the document may appear (e.g. sick notes).
Our staff can give you an estimate of the cost involved for most uninsured services. Please refer to the partial list of fees for forms and uninsured services.
We will be happy to issue a receipt to you for insurance or tax purposes. Thank you.

Hacker 'Guccifer' Sentenced to Four Years
ALEXANDRIA, Va. (CN) — Romanian hacker Marcel Lazar aka Guccifer was sentenced Thursday to 52 months in prison for criminal access of private data and aggravated identity theft after admitting to hacking a member of the Bush family.
Lazar, 44, pleaded guilty on May 25 for his unauthorized access to the email and social media accounts of American citizens, including "an immediate family member of two former U.S. presidents, a former member of the U.S. Cabinet, a former member of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff and a former presidential advisor," according to the U.S. Justice Department.
Lazar was also charged with aggravated identify theft for releasing his victims' emails and private records, such as their medial or financial information.
The hacker claimed on a series of interviews broadcast on Fox, CNN and MSNBC that Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton was the victim of his security breaches when he accessed her private server housed at her home in Chappaqua, N.Y.
That claim is unconfirmed and has been denied by FBI Director James Comey.
Lazar's hacks were also reported to have affected former Secretary of State Colin Powell, a family member of former U.S. president George W. Bush and Sidney Blumenthal, a former Clinton aide.
Lazar shared personal photographs he obtained through the hacks, according to the indictment filed in 2014.
Some of his offenses, as it was determined by a grand jury, included a series of messages he posted on the social media pages of a former U.S. Cabinet member, including "You will burn in hell, Bush!" and "Kill the illuminati! Tomorrow's world will be a world free of illuminati or will be no more!"
Lazar was extradited to the U.S. from Romania in May. Court documents revealed that he also went by the aliases Guccifer Seven, Micul Fum and Marcel Lazar Lehel.
The maximum penalty Lazar could have faced for unauthorized access to a protected computer would have been a five-year prison term. For the aggravated identity theft charge alone, the maximum penalty is a two-year jail sentence and a fine up to $250,000.
As part of his sentence, Lazar will also be forced to forfeit all of his assets.

Shunted: Belfast train station no longer 'Central'
Belfast Central Station is to get a makeover and will be renamed "Lanyon Place" from September, Translink has revealed.
The transport operator said the name change is to reflect the transformation of the station's surrounding area into a major hub of activity.
The station is also set for a facelift, with the frontage to be replaced and enhancements made to the ticketing area, retail offerings as well as the installation of a new bike dock.
Last year more than 2.6m passengers used the station.
Chris Conway, Translink Group Chief Executive, said: "The Lanyon Place area has become a major hub of activity, with the 'Lanyon' name being adopted by a range of neighbouring businesses, alongside Belfast City Council's exciting plans for the Lanyon Tunnels.
"We consulted with a range of local stakeholders regarding this name change, and Lanyon Place made sense in order to provide more clarity on where the station is geographically located within the city.
"We plan to phase the new name in over the coming months, with the official name change introduced from September when the works are due to be completed.
"This will also coincide with the introduction of the new Glider service, which will stop in Lanyon Place ensuring greater access, integration and connectivity for passengers.
''We will be working closely with local contractor, Cleary's, to deliver this important project.
"The station will be completely accessible throughout the works and every effort will be made to keep disruption to a minimum during this time. We would ask for the patience and support of our customers as we carry out this improvement work''

PRINCESS ANNE, Md. — After a dress rehearsal last week, the Maryland Eastern Shore Hawks open the curtain on the 2017-18 regular season on Friday night against the University of Valley Forge.
Tip-off is set for 8:00pm EST at the William P. Hytche Athletic Center.
The Hawks picked up an exhibition win last week at home over the visiting Christopher Newport University Captains, 61-58. They needed some late-game heroics from Ahmad Frost, who hit four free throws in the final minute to seal the deal for the home side.
Friday marks the start of the regular season, and the Hawks will look to open the season with a win for the first time since the turn of the millennium. Records go back as far as the 2000-2001 season, and Eastern Shore hasn't won the first game of the season from then until last season.
On Friday, the Hawks will look to change history.
Last season, the Hawks and Valley Forge squared off in January, with the Hawks coming away with a 90-65 win on their home court. They were led by Ryan Andino, who scored 23 points on 6-of-15 shooting from three point range. Forward Tyler Jones chipped in with 19 points of his own off the bench.
Heading into the 2017-18 season, the Hawks will be without several key contributors for a lengthy period of time. Both Dontae Caldwell and Isaac Taylor are expected to miss the entire season due to injury, and Andino will miss extended time with an ailment of his own.
That leaves Logan McIntosh as the only returning starter from last season's team who will start again for the Hawks this year. McIntosh posted 8.8 points and a team-high 4.2 assists per game last season, and will be looked upon to lead the team early on as the newcomers get accustomed to playing at the Division I level.
With the injuries and departures from last season, freshman LeAndre Thomas will see big minutes in the post from the outset of the season. He went for eight points and eight rebounds against the Captains in exhibition play.
Another player who will play a significant role for head coach Bobby Collins this season is guard Ahmad Frost. Playing his first game since January of 2016, Frost scored a team-high 12 points in the Hawks' exhibition win. With injuries in the back court, Frost will be a big factor for the Hawks all season long.
Last season, Valley Forge bounced back from their first non-winning season in over a decade with a 19-10 showing in 2016-17. They were ranked 4th in the NCCAA Division II rankings, and they have finished in the top two in the East Region 11 straight years.
Senior guard Alex Sanchez led the team in scoring last season, and with the next six scorers below him all gone from Valley Forge, he will need to carry the team in 2017-18. Sanchez posted 18.2 points and 1.7 assists per game.
In total, the Hawks have seven newcomers on their 2017-18 roster, with most of them expected to see considerable playing time this season. Friday marks one of three home non-conference games for the Hawks this season.
Following Friday's tilt, the Hawks go on the road for six games before returning to the Hytche Athletic Center on December 2nd.

PurposeGround vibration testing (GVT) results can be used as system parameters for predicting flutter, which is essential for aeroelastic clearance. This paper aims to compute GVT-based flutter in time domain, using unsteady air loads by matrix polynomial approximations.Design/methodology/approachThe experimental parameters, namely, frequencies and mode shapes are interpolated to build an equivalent finite element model. The unsteady aerodynamic forces extracted from MSC NASTRAN are approximated using matrix polynomial approximations. The system matrices are condensed to the required shaker location points to build an aeroelastic reduced order state space model in SIMULINK.FindingsThe computed aerodynamic forces are successfully reduced to few input locations (optimal) for flutter simulation on unknown structural system (where stiffness and mass are not known) through a case study. It is demonstrated that GVT data and the computed unsteady aerodynamic forces of a system are adequate to represent its aeroelastic behaviour.Practical implicationsAirforce of every nation continuously upgrades its fleet with advanced weapon systems (stores), which demands aeroelastic flutter clearance. As the original equipment manufacturers does not provide the design data (stiffness and mass) to its customers, a new methodology to build an aeroelastic system of unknown aircraft is devised.Originality/valueA hybrid approach is proposed, involving GVT data to build an aeroelastic state space system, using rationally approximated air loads (matrix polynomial approximations) computed on a virtual FE model for ground flutter simulation.

I have yet to meet the injured athlete who expected to be injured.
Everyone—pro, high-school kid, or average guy working out in the gym—has the same reaction: I can't believe it. I worked so hard.
My question: Did you just work hard, or did you also work smart?
Not the same thing.
Hard work is good. But smart work is on a whole different level. When you work hard, you're just working. When you work smart, you're working hard on the right things, for specific results.
And no matter what sport you play, no matter at what level you play it, one of those results is not being injured.: Kids play the same sport in multiple leagues from an early age, wearing down their growing bodies before they reach adulthood, without the right kind of training or sufficient recovery time to manage the physical effects. In many cases, by the time they get to the pros, injury is predictable if not inevitable.
Now we're seeing the same thing in baseball: There are currently more than 40 major league pitchers recovering from Tommy John or other arm surgeries, in addition to more than 50 pitchers on the DL with various strains, tears, and inflammations. You can point to many of the same causes: Too many innings for too many years, kids throwing for power without developing arm strength to support the motion. Even with mandatory pitch counts, rest days, and inning restrictions, you still have kids playing in multiple leagues with conflicting rules that allow for all kinds of loopholes. And contribute to all kinds of injuries.
You can sum up all the explanations in just a few words: Hard work is not always smart work.
For a pitcher, if most of your time is spent working on the skill of throwing a ball, with less time spent on developing the physical strength to support that skill, you're not working smart. You can work on your form and technique and strategy and everything that goes into becoming a great pitcher. But unless you build the right machinery under that great-looking hood, you're a Rolls Royce with a Yugo engine. All style, no performance.
"Everyone wants to work on the glamour muscles that get the credit for throwing a ball: shoulders, biceps, triceps," says Dr. Andy Masis, Director of Injury Prevention and Rehabilitation for ATTACK Athletics, and one of the finest physical therapists I've ever worked with. "But if you ignore the surrounding muscles that support the arm—the scapula behind the shoulder blade, the back, the entire core, all the muscles that take the stress off the shoulder itself, you have no stability. And without stability, you cannot have mobility."
Think about constructing a door. It can be built from the strongest, most exquisite materials imaginable, but without a quality frame or durable hinges, it's just a big useless slab. If the frame is weak or crooked, the door collapses. If the hinges aren't attached correctly, the door can't open or close. And what happens when you force a stuck door to move? It usually breaks. Meanwhile, what gets all the attention? The handle: the hardware equivalent of the glamour muscles. All the focus goes to what you can see on the outside, but without correct construction on the inside, your expensive handle is just a hunk of junk.
Ultimately, the way you build that door has everything to do with your chances of avoiding injury and achieving longevity. If you use quality parts, if you build and connect them properly, maintain them correctly, now you have stability and mobility. You cannot effectively have one without the other.
If you really want to know how a pro athlete took care of himself during his career, take a look at him after his career. The way he moves, how he walks, if he can stand up straight. Forget about whether he's put on a few pounds or lost some skill; we're talking about how his body structure survived years of athletic wear and tear, injuries, surgeries, rehabs.
The guys who can move well and still look like they can play a bit, those are the ones who understood that you can't just work on the parts that are injured or weak; those are the guys who worked smart. The body is a physical chain; everything is connected. When one link in the chain is damaged or weakened, the next link takes on some of the stress. Over time it takes on more and more stress, until it weakens as well, and eventually the damage spreads all the way down the chain. So what began as a knee injury often becomes a hip problem or an ankle issue or back trouble.
True for all of us, not just pro athletes: If you don't protect the entire chain, if you return from an injury without building the muscle and connective tissue necessary to support and stabilize the entire body—not just the injured area—you're probably going to get hurt again. And frequently the new injury will be to a different area. Now they call you "injury-prone" and wonder why you can't stay healthy.
Without proper maintenance, you can't sustain performance. Look at it this way: If you're building a high-performance automobile, you'll need a lot of separate parts to maintain it properly, to keep it finely tuned and balanced. Some parts make it stop, go, move forward, backwards, absorb shock, etc. But if just one part is out of alignment or worn out, it's going to cause other parts to break down or malfunction…usually the parts you can't see.
You notice this a lot late in the season, as athletes try to stay healthy for the long haul. They're sore, banged up, tired—the last thing they want to do is work out. They built up a baseline of strength during the off-season, lifting weights, moving the iron. But unless they continue training to overload those muscles during the season, the strength baseline decreases, and now those muscles begin to break down as the workload increases. And the longer the season goes on, the more they break down. You can bring in the world's best specialists, physical therapists, acupuncturists, masseuses, you can do the foam rolling and stim and ultrasound and muscle activation…but all of that has to be in addition to your strength work, not a replacement for it.
Bottom line: If your preparation involves more time on a table than on your feet, you're not training smart. You play on your feet, you train on your feet. That's training smart.

I spent part of the day not contacting a reporter for The Local Daily looking for information on the bicycle commuter ummm...is it an act or a tax? I never made the reportage connection but I'm pretty sure Mr Bite did.
That's a good thing. I think his company is already participating in the new opportunity. My plan if the article works is to pass it on our my HR person and the other fair weather commuter that works where I do.
It will be good to see bicycles in the news yet again - hopefully tomorrow.

Alpha medium (mod. MEM) liquid medium
Alpha Medium is a modified MEM medium, originally developed to grow Chinese Hamster kidney cells in vitro. Modification was done by an increase in the concentration of the amino acids, vitamins, lipoic acid, and pyruvate. Alpha medium supports the growth of bone marrow cells under both mononolayer and suspension culture conditions. The medium is also suitable for amniotic fluid cells in chromosome analysis. Another widely used supplement modification are nucleosides.
This medium is also available as a standard in powder with a minimum order of 500 litres; pack sizes are 10, or 50 litres.

We love to get lost in books around here. I've been hunting for some new ones to read to my whole crew…and I mean my whole crew. We love to cuddle up on couches, on the floor or under the covers with big cups of tea and a great story. It is really the sweetest moments we make together. There are several great read-alouds in our rotation, but we are looking for something new to all of us, not just the younger kids. It got me thinking about how much I would love to know what all your favorite read-alouds have been, so I can run to the library and snag them up and start reading! I'll start by sharing my own fab favorites {so far!} in no particular order of importance:
1. A Wrinkle in Time- I used to imagine myself into this family as a child. Meg and her brother Charles Wallace must search for their father through space and time in order to save him and the Universe from a deep blackness. This book awakens something new in my soul every single time I read it.
2. Mrs. Piggle Wiggle- This sweet lady has a very unorthodox {ahem} remedy for every childhood ill; like whining, not sharing, laziness and bickering. It has been the best way I have found to address bad manners in our home and we never read it without a complete and total giggle fit.
3. Little House on the Prairie- I'm not going to lie, this series bored me to death at first {I know that statement might loose me a few blog readers}, but I became captivated by the daily life and immersion into a childhood on the prairie. This series always makes my children count their blessings, want to bake and imagine just a bit more.
4. The Chronicles of Narnia- I cry every time we read this series. It is of course, an allegory to our entire faith and world view, but it is also literature that awakens the best of our character, our longing for valor and courage to be real in our lives and quite literally opened up a whole new, quite cherished, world to our family.
5. The Railway Children- This was one of the most pleasant books I have ever shared with my children. Three siblings loose their father to a false-imprisionment and head to the English countryside to live a simpler life, finding a sheer love for the railway and all those connected to it in their vicinity and end up solving a mystery too!
6. The Mysterious Benedict Society- Four very gifted and out of the box children are called upon to rescue their town and become under-cover agents for the Mysterious Mr. Benedict. My children are captivated by the adventure in this story and I love the loyalty and comraderie of the characters.
7. The Saturdays- Four siblings in turn of the 20th century New York City determine to pool their allowance and each take a Saturday to do what they have always dreamed of. Each chapter highlights a respective adventure that is beautifully woven into the whole of the story of this family. It is lovely!
8. The Burgess Animal Book- Peter Rabbit discovers his neighbors and gives you a naturalist's education as you read and truly get to know the characters of the forest well. My children ask for this one again and again and even with higher language use, my little ones are in love and learn so much!
9. Mr. Popper's Penguins- This was my favorite as a child and I was so thrilled to read it to my own children. They loved the story of Mr. Popper, the unkempt house painter, his special Antartic penguins, and all their shenanigans, just as much as I did.
10. The Trumpet of the Swan- This is the story of a boy and a swan and the latter's migration and struggle to be reunited with his family, all the while he overcomes an inability to "talk" learning to play the trumpet. This book made us laugh and learn and soak in the seasons all at once.
11. Understood Betsy- Betsy is a frail girl who is sent to live with relatives on a farm in the country. They gently spur her to independence with love, extraordinary faith in who she truly is, and by requiring more of her than she thinks is possible. She soon begins to find her own inner strength and fortitude and leads young readers to do the same.
Ok, now it's your turn! What is one {or more!} of your favorite read alouds? My library basket is waiting.

I fancy a hill fort to go with my Arthurian collection. Unfortunately the commercially available ones don't really accommodate 120x60mm elements very well and are pretty expensive. So I thought I'd have a go at scratch building something.
I had a lot of complex ideas for modular walls but in the end decided to go simple and use an old terrain tile as the basis. The photos show how I arranged 8 infantry elements into a suitable shape the drew around their fronts and backs to mark out the rampart. The rest of the tile was the cut away using an old bread knife, a Stanley knife and a flat blade screwdriver. The resulting dome/doughnut was then roughly sanded and glued to an old piece of hardboard ready for some more advanced modelling later in the week.
Due to my preference for blogging on mobile devices, the absence of an official Blogger app and recent problems with a third-party app I have switched my routine updating to a facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/paintingshedblog/ Copyright © 2014, Stephen Jones All rights reserved.

Reflections on a Semester of Teaching French
This past school year brought a different family season for us as we temporarily left homeschooling and I began teaching French full-time at a local high school because of their last-minute need. This meant a whirlwind of change for my family, but we agreed to try out this season of work and private schooling. For the first time, our older two children are attending school three days per week (in English, not French, unfortunately) but we expect to return to homeschooling after our stay in France next fall.Read More

Officials: Brooklyn man drowns off Long Beach
A Brooklyn man died after rescuers pulled two men from the water in Long Beach, officials say.
A Long Beach city spokesman says they were taken out of the water near Edwards Boulevard around 6:20 p.m. Monday.
A third man made it out of the water on his own.
Two of the men were rushed to the hospital. Police say a 26-year-old Brooklyn man was pronounced dead there. The other is expected to be OK.
Authorities did not immediately identify the victims.
Paul Gillespie, head of the Long Beach Lifeguards, says no one is supposed to be in the water after the guards go off duty at 6 p.m. He also warned that approaching storms from the south and west are making the water particularly rough.
Less than an hour later, a Jet Ski accident under the Long Island Rail Road bridge near Reynolds Channel and Magnolia Boulevard sent two people into the water, according to the fire department.
Officials say both were taken to the Long Beach Emergency Room in critical condition -- one in "respiratory distress" and the other undergoing cardiac arrest.
The Long Beach Fire Department says the Jet Ski struck a cement stanchion at the bridge and sent both passengers overboard. A pair of good Samaritans brought one of them to shore on a separate vehicle, and the fire department used its rescue ski to retrieve the other.

When saving your report you are prompted to select a folder (or folders) where it can be found later.
By default Reporting shows you the following folders:
Click the star to the left of a report's name to mark any report as a favorite to show it in your Favorites folder. Remove reports from the Favorites folder by deselecting the star next to the report name.
Unless you explicitly save (or move) a report to a shared folder, the reports you create will be private and accessible to you in the My Reports folder.
All Reporting users can view, edit and run reports saved into shared folders.
Folders that appear in the Reports Shared with Me section were shared by other users. You can see report definitions, schedule and run any reports they contain. Users with manage permissions can also edit and move reports that were shared by another user.
You can share any of your reports too by either moving a report to a shared folder or by changing a private folder into a shared folder. Refer to the sections below on moving a report and sharing reports.
The Zuora Standard Reports folder contains some of the most frequently requested reports. More Zuora Standard Reports are coming soon. A list of what is available can be found here.
You can search reports by name on the Reporting Home page. Search results include your reports, reports shared with you, and Zuora standard reports.
When searching reports, you must enter at least three characters per word.
Move a report from one folder to another by using the Move option.
Deleting a report will remove it from all folders where it may appear. If you wish to remove a report from a particular folder use the Move option to deselect the folder where you don't want the report to appear.
You cannot move or delete a read-only report unless you created the report.
If you have permission to modify a folder, you can right-click the folder to display a folder actions menu:
There are two ways to add new folders:
Standard users and Administrators can share any report with all Reporting users by saving or moving a copy of it into a folder within the Reports Shared with Me folder or any other folder that is shared.
Users may share a folder by selecting the Share option presented in that folder's contextual menu. Only Standard users and Administrators can do that.
Folders that were marked as shared can also be made private or "unshared" with the same contextual menu option.
When you create shared folders, all of the reports and subfolders that they contain will appear in the Reports Shared with Me area for other users.
When you save a report, you can choose to make the report read-only. Zuora displays a lock symbol next to the report name to indicate that the report is read-only.
If you create a read-only report then share the report, all Reporting users can view the report, run the report, and save a copy of the report. However, only you can edit, move, or delete the report.
To change the read-only setting of a report that you created, either:
Find out what roles and permissions enable users to create new reports and how the ability to create new reports may be restricted. For more information refer to Zuora Reporting Roles and Permissions.

I'm not 100% sure if 2 items sharing a stitch pattern officially makes up a collection but I like to think it does! I've been playing with the stitch pattern in these two new designs on and off for over a year and am so excited to finally see them come to fruition!
The Vintage Silver Shrug is going to be my go-to layer for transitional seasons; when winter turns to spring and the wind is still a bit chilly, this lovely little layering piece over a dress or with jeans will be the perfect answer to Mother Natures indecision. And the socks? Oh boy… don't even get me started on the socks! The stitch pattern is largely ribbed so they're very comfortable to wear. Designed in 6 sizes, these socks are great for all genders!
This little collection is done in collaboration with the wonderful dye talents of House of A La Mode Fiber Goods. Oyster is a marvelous neutral gray with the softest of pink undertones; It pairs perfectly with the warmth of Rose Quartz.

This will be my last paper of the year, worth 20 percent of my mark. I'm arguing for a death/descent to Hell/resurrection motif in "The Rime of the Ancient Mariner". If the essay is good enough, I'll win 500 dollars.

I slowly remember the manzanita and madrone trees.
I recall a night under the stars all alone with a bonfire lit by one match.
I remember the taste of boiled algae cakes and spring water.
I remember swimming naked and hopping on river rocks.
I can remember the tune we sang to the Lord's Prayer.
But, I don't like the way these memories make me feel.

Arachnophobia (1990)
Eight legs, two fangs and an attitude.
Arach·no·pho·bia: the pathological fear or loathing of spiders. Some people would have you believe that it's a fear without basis - and maybe they are right. I mean, it's not every single spider in existence that can cause death or even harm to a human, so the fear of a little tiny creature that springs on you from nowhere and builds nests to trap it's victims and suck them dry is totally irrational, right? If you haven't figured it out, I'm a tad bit arachnophobic - but I've been working at changing that slowly over the years through sheer willpower. Most people have an awesome story about why they have a fear of spiders, and yet mine is both weak and highly entertaining: I was taken to see this movie when I had no business in theaters. In that sense, it demonstrates the power of movies and the lasting ways they can affect us, and in turn I can't think of any other movie that would make more sense to do for my one hundredth review. Stick around and see if this movie is a web of lies, or if it puts the fear or spiders into you.
A photographer arrives to a location late, having been laid up by a fever at his last stop, and the entomologist team is less than enthused about it. The rush to a nearby helicopter and whisk off to the location they are going to, where upon they hope to find some new species of bugs. As they draw near to their destination, their local guide tells them he shall go no further and queues us (the audience) in to something potentially dangerous. After setting up their gear, it's time for some science marvels with a smoke generating gizmo, which in turns causes most of the local bug life to suffocate and fall from the lofty tree they smoked down into their little collection trays. Some interesting butterflies and the likes fill the trays, and the team is suddenly drawn to a loud clang in a nearby tray. Investigation causes the camera to pan dramatically to reveal a seemingly dead (and rather large) spider laying in the dish.
Surprise! That thing wasn't dead! It jumps at the photographer, who in turn (like any decent human) freaks out about the creepy thing jumping at him, throws it to the ground and stomps on it. Obviously, the bug folks aren't too enthused about this, but their sadness quickly turns back to excitement when they find the other spiders they smoked out of the tree are also alive, giving them two more of the thus-far unknown species to examine back home. As they go to leave the location, they aren't out of the woods yet when a particularly thoughtful spider jumps onto the equipment and hides in a backpack. Back at camp, the photographer is feeling under the weather from his fever, and decides to take a nap, a bad choice for him, as that same spider climbs into his tent and decides to give him a different kind of nap - a dirt nap.
The man's body is sent back to his home town, the entomologists assuming he died from his fever and knowing nothing of the devious spider companion that snuck into the coffin box. Now back in civilization, it leaves the morgue and gets nabbed by a crow. The crow doesn't realize that it's newest meal is actually a death-incarnate in spider form, and finds itself dropping dead mid-flight over the recently acquired property of a doctor and his family. The poor town is in for a real shock, as this super-spider decides to hook up with a local spider and make itself a little army of go-getters. Can the new doctor figure out the culprits as townsfolk start dropping dead, and can they quell the eight legged menace before it's too late?
So lets get down to business. Effects on the larger super-spiders are believable, but not enough to fool a guy who's already pretty dang terrified of spiders. Smaller spiders, on the other hand, sent enough shivers down my spine an onlooker might have thought I was having a seizure. Whether or not those are real little spiders just shot close up or juxtaposed over things or not, I have no idea and care not to know - when it comes down to it it's believable enough that it creeps the absolute crap out of me. Locations at the start of the film are also quite beautiful, even if it is partially a spider-infested deathtrap of a jungle.
Actors are a nice spread of good, annoyingly good, and just weird. Although we can assume the town's newer doctor is the hero (as he is the main human character), by the end it's the exterminator who steals the show. The main reason for this is most likely his generic "idiot craftsman" outer experience, and yet the absolute joy he goes about his job in the later sections of the movie (and also some of his lines are just gold). If anything is to fault when it comes to acting, death scenes of humans (particularly the first one) seem sort of super overdone. In all honesty, having not seen a person go into cardiac arrest from super-venom coursing through their veins, it very well could be an accurate description.
Audio comes in clean, and lines are delivered pretty well. Music plays mostly background, and in turn will be mostly forgettable to the general masses - although it does help boost some of the scenes. Pacing is quite well handled, and I admittedly went from "this isn't as bad as I remember" to cowering in my seat by the end of the movie. Jump scares exist, but just how scary this movie is will truthfully depend on the individual. If you have the slightest fear of spiders, it's really going to enhance the amount of terror involved. That being said, the movie comes of more believable than it's slash-happy horror relatives and therefore could also for that reason be deemed more frightening.
When it comes down to it, this is admittedly the first time I have managed to sit through this entire movie in 20 or so years. That isn't to say I enjoyed every minute of it - as a person who feels anywhere from anxious to flat out petrified in the presence of spiders, it did a very effective job of reminding me that I don't like spiders. As a movie, it's pretty well built, solidly handled, and entertaining to watch. As with every movie, it won't be for everyone, but if you want to traumatize your little kids over spiders I don't think there is gonna be a better movie than this. In the meantime, if you're into horror movies or creature flicks, it's not such a bad idea for you to flick it up.

I am happily married and have two wonderful children. This micro universe is the universe that matters the most.
Born in Montréal, QC Canada, I lived in 20 different places. I moved to Québec City in 1982, where I spent 15 years and returned to Montréal in 1996. In 2009, I moved to Massachusetts, my current home. I went on two assignments in Paris, France; one of one (1) year.
My career has been very interesting, having worked in various functions; often without the usual prerequisites or experience. This has provided great opportunity to develop a well rounded experience and set of skills.
I joined the workforce in 1986. My very first (out of school) job was with a start-up game board company (following the Trivial Pursuit trend...a bubble before .com). My entrepreneurial spirit was lit! For two years, during a challenging economy, I experimented, did various jobs (even sold door to door...fire extinguishers and insurance).
In 1988, my first career opportunity in technology; I have been working in High-Tech ever since.
What I believe in
- My family and friends;
- Integrity, discipline, respect, teamwork, people;
- Enable others to succeed;
- Think and Act within context for Effective Decision Making;
- Enable Efficient Operations.
Generic Bio
Working in business and technology (software and services) since 1988, I am recognized for my approach, determination and professional attitude. I focus on team success while never running from responsibility.
Some say I am too detail oriented, others too strategic. I manage within context of a given situation and balance team environment to achieve desired results.
I occupied positions that enabled me to develop a wide range of skills in sales, sales management, project management and general management, in knowledge management and resource management, in Human Resources, and in operations.
These roles brought me to innovate and develop means to enable individuals, teams and businesses to be more effective and efficient, while increasing customer satisfaction. I am a problem solver, recognized team builder, facilitator, organizer and executive coach. I quickly see the solution to problems and anticipate the problem before it becomes one.
My career has helped me acquire experience in small and large business, at local, regional and international levels. I lived in Canada, relocated to the United States (where I now live) and went twice on assignment in France (once for one year). Working in a multi-cultural, multi-lingual environment is second nature. I have travelled professionally around the world.
I am a regular speaker at conferences, have written numerous articles on business transformation and also published two books (Internet: Le Guides des Affaires, Les Édtions Logiques, 1996, and La famille Van Houtte, l'histoire d'un bon café, Les Éditions Logiques, 2001).
Professional Interests
They are varied and very open.
- Football (American) (I need to be explicit because many my family and friends are European)
- Writing - I am currently translating the Van Houtte family book to English. I am also writing practical business guides on effective decision making and efficient operations
- Reading
- Favorite books: The Lord of the Rings, Sun Tzu The Art of War, fictional history, classics
- Favorite authors: Bernard Cornwell, Edward Rutherford, Colleen McCullough to name a few
- History (Before common era Rome, Crusades, and any thing of the genre)
- Smart people: I enjoy asking questions to very smart people and engage, fuel, the discussions (try it with quantum physicists, philosophers, or any deep expert - fascinating)
- Home renovations (anything)
- Salt water aquariums/coral reefs
- Management, Leadership Development, Help Management!
- Project Management, Skills Management, Resource Management, Resource Allocation

Quality, Community & Exploration
Located in the Green Gables neighborhood of Phoenix, the property we now call home at Wren House sat unoccupied and disused for decades. We fell in love with its character, rebuilt the old guest house and garage in the backyard into our brewhouse, and converted the main 1920s bungalow house into our cozy taproom.
In the brewhouse, we focus on quality and explore a wide range of brewing techniques and styles. Led by head brewer Preston Thoeny, our brewers integrate international beer styles with Arizona character to craft beers that satiate and challenge the senses.
We believe in the power of craft beer to bring people together, and our taproom reflects this - we offer a simple space with music but no TV to gather with friends or meet a new neighbor over a beer. While we focus on the beer we encourage you to bring in take-out or have food delivered if you would like to pair a meal with our offerings.

"Wren House Brewing has emerged as one of the best breweries in metro Phoenix, young or old. The 24th Street taproom seems to wipe the stresses from life, leaving you in a space that has a residential vibe, like a cool friend's lake house where people bullshit and share pictures and drink good beer."
"In this episode I sit down with Drew and the ever-elusive Preston from Wren House Brewing Company. I profess my love for their beer and we talk about stuff. Enjoy the show!"
Today, there are over 6,000 craft breweries operating in the U.S. according to the Brewers Association —and many of them offer tours and tasting rooms for visitors. To help you celebrate your right to drink, MONEY partnered with Yelp to identify the best breweries to visit in the U.S., and then dug into our Best in Travel database to find the cost of a weekend getaway.
Looking for the best place to sip on some saucy libations and cut loose on the dance floor? Lucky for you Phoenix has one of the hottest nightlife scenes so you'll never have to experience a boring weekend again! Here are AZFoothills.com readers top picks for nightlife and cocktails in the Valley.
Wren House is a proud participant of the Arizona Pure Water Brew Challenge created by Pima County's Southwest Water Campus. This innovative project helps us all become more comfortable with the amazing technologies that enable recycled water reuse in drinking water applications and ensure a sustainable water supply for the arid southwest. We brewed "Hydrologic Pale Ale" as tribute to this cause and entered into the competition. Come try it while it lasts in the taproom!
From DRAFT Magazine, "Wren House Brewing Co.'s Who Hit John Grand Cru is a tasty beer with an uncommon twist: The 13% ABV imperial porter was aged in barrels that once held a special cuvee version of Berry White..."

This is the first part in a series I'll use to explore retail (likely offline, but could be online) that emphasizes product discovery over - or in ways equal to - immediate sales.
This week in the Bay Area, I visited three stores that are platforms for new consumer electronics:
Target Open House:
While Target sadly shut down its store-of-the-future R&D division, they've kept a store in San Francisco that's dedicated to connected home. The main, most product-oriented area of the store is upfront and features a few rows of tables that display gadgets, each one with a tablet next to it to explain the what and why. While I haven't seen this experience carried into standard Target stores, the product - a smart light bulb or plug-in herb garden - isn't outside the realm of what I'd expect to find in one.
Another part of the store recreates small rooms, such as a kitchen, with just a couple of associated smart items and an introductory screen asking me questions to help guide my experience. In one room, I could choose to explore the "design loving you" or the "sports fan you", for example. It was a bit too slow to engage my shopping partner or me for long.
I wonder about Target's objectives for this footprint give the company's store innovation focus has waned. It's hard to imagine they're using data from this non-microcosm to inform tech or merchandise or shopping methods more broadly. If it's a brand play, it's not a bad one, even if the store was empty when I visited.
This flagship location looks less like a place one would go to ask a question about a wireless bill or just pick up a new iPhone and more like a place one would go to do... I'm not exactly sure what. In particular, the second floor, which an associate encouraged me to check out, was filled with a lot of bistro tables and no people. There was a VR experience to try and a kitchen set-up that looked like it should have a cappuccino machine ready to go, but no luck. The most compelling part of the layout was a well-merchandised music section that featured live headphones - actual items one might want to try and buy - against a backdrop of an eye-catching guitar and accessories.
With a business model that's now well-documented, this start-up is pay-to-play; rather than driving sales in the store, b8ta collects "subscription" fees from brands (typically online-only) who want a presence. This is good news for customer experience in a few related ways.
Notably, b8ta is unlike many department store beauty floors where the space is clearly segregated by each brand and associates only sell the brand that's paying them: people who work in this store clearly are trained and knowledgeable across products. The congruous display for each product means the store has a cohesive feel, unobstructed by large brand signage or fixtures. The drawback, of course, is there's not as visually prominent a way for companies that want to build their brands to do so. And the environment today doesn't seem consistent with bringing in bigger brands that typically demand a louder presence.
Not only is the physical presentation at b8ta consistent throughout, but the digital experience is, as well: A tablet adjacent to each item has the same set-up so, as you move throughout the store, you quickly get used to the tabs for learning, video demos, and more (just as you do when you jump from product page to product page when shopping online).
Overall, I see this as a scalable way for newer brands in various categories to pay for interactive media (because many stores serve as media, after all) in a way that cuts through today's advertising noise. It's also a new way for consumers who are enthusiastic about product discovery to touch and feel what's new. As long as brands who pay enough to be there for b8ta to work see the ROI to keeping doing it.

I ran track and cross country at the Division I level while at UNI for five years. During that time, I won two Missouri Valley Conference indoor titles in the 800 meters and one in the Distance Medley Relay. I qualified for two USA championships and finished 25th in the country in the 800 meters in 2017. My PR's include 2:04 for 800 meters, 4:22 for 1500 meters, 4:46 for the mile, and 17:29 for the 5k. I love sports and have a true passion for track and field!
