Kraftwerk's "Retrospective 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8," in which the influential electronic group revisits each of its albums one by one over eight nights, began last night with the performance of Autobahn at New York's Museum of Modern Art.
The highly-anticipated concerts were sold out within minutes of the digital box office opening, leaving most people ticketless and cursing at a "captcha." But we've got the story for all of those who couldn't be there.

I think we've said "impossible to >test". That's a big difference. Speaking of "testing" do we mean automated tests, or tests by the author, or user tests, or what? I think we are using the very vague word "test" in a sloppy manner, and at the very least the term when used should be qualified with an adjective. Otherwise our discussions will become even more muddled. I think there are practical matters which cannot be "tested" but in which a "judgment call" must be made. As a trivial example, "appropriate alt text." (We all know that "existence of alt text" is easily testable, but applicability is not a "test", it is a "judgment call.") The suitability of a given judgment call can be tested in practice by suitable user testing but can't really be checked in any other appropriate manner. --Kynn -- Kynn Bartlett <email@example.com> Technical Developer Liaison Reef North America Accessibility - W3C - Integrator Network ________________________________________ BUSINESS IS DYNAMIC.

Hounds Get First Win Behind Sawyer's Hat Trick
May 10, 2014 - Major League Lacrosse (MLL) - Charlotte Hounds News Release
After a two-hour weather delay on Saturday afternoon, the Charlotte Hounds defeated the defending MLL Champion Chesapeake Bayhawks 12-7 for their first win of the 2014 season. The Bayhawks fall to 1-2. Mike Sawyer was named Player of the Game for a three-goal performance, while Ben Rubeor led the way for the Bayhawks with two goals and an assist.
The opening faceoff, originally scheduled for 3:37pm, did not take place until 5:42pm due to severe thunderstorms in the Charlotte area. Tim Fallon won the draw, and just a minute later the Bayhawks' Brian Megill was hit with a holding penalty to set up Sawyer with a power-play goal to give the Hounds an early 1-0 lead. During the Bayhawks' ensuing possession, Mason Poli -- making his first appearance for the Hounds this season -- forced a turnover to set up Dean Gibbons with his first goal of the game. Sawyer followed that up with his second of the night, and an additional goal from John Haus gave the Hounds a 4-0 lead just 4:48 into the game. Drew Westervelt finally snuck a goal in for the Bayhawks with 58 seconds left in the quarter.
The Hounds kept it rolling in the second, as Thomas DeNapoli -- making his first MLL appearance following the completion of his collegiate career at Towon -- scored 1:08 into the quarter. Five minutes later Gibbons tallied his second of the night to push the Hounds in front 6-1. The Bayhawks responded with a goal from Rubeor to make it a 6-2 game. Brett Schmidt was then hit with a costly penalty for an illegal body check, which set the Bayhawks up for a power-play goal from Peet Poillon to close the half with the Hounds ahead just 6-3.
The Bayhawks scored their third unanswered to open the third, as Brendan Mundorf rifled a shot past Pierce Bassett, making it a two-goal game. But while Poli was working in transition, he ripped a shot from long range to score the Hounds' first 2-pointer of the season and give the team an 8-4 lead. The next 5:39 of the game went scoreless, beforeJake Smith scooped up a loose ball, dished it off to Haus, who then passed to Jake Tripucka for the goal to push the Hounds in front 9-4. Sawyer completed his hat trick with 2:46 left in third to give the team a six-goal advantage. But the Bayhawks started a mini-run, as Poillon faked a high shot and released low to beat Bassett. Rubeor then scored as time expired to make it a 10-6 heading into the final quarter.
Matt Abbott scored the Bayhawks' third unanswered to open the fourth and cut the Hounds lead to three. The game started to turn chippy, as Brian Spallina and Matt White both were hit with unsportsmanlike penalties. But the Bayhawks' Dan Burns also was called for interference, which set up a man advantage for the Hounds. Ryan Youngcapitalized off a feed from Tripucka to push the lead back to four goals, 11-7. The next 10 minutes went scoreless, as both Bassett and Kip Turner came up with big saves at their respective ends of the field. Josh Hawkins added an insurance goal with under a minute to play to seal the Hounds' 12-7 victory.
Bassett finished the game with 10 saves on 17 shots, while Turner had 17 saves on 28 shots. The Hounds controlled possession in large part to a 14-21 performance at the X from Fallon, who came out over 50% for the second-straight week after a rough season opener.
The Hounds (1-2) next week travel to Boston to face the Cannons in a 6:00pm game at Harvard Stadium. The Cannons currently are 1-1, with a game against the 2-0 Denver Outlaws to be played this evening.

At the urging of avid BMX racers, Pierce County Parks and Recreation is working to reopen the Riverside Park in Sumner, which has been closed since January's flooding.
Pierce County parks officials originally said they may not reopen the park due to the routine flooding it has endured in recent years.
"It's difficult for us to go back in and dump money into something that keeps getting flooded every 18 months," parks superintendent Kent Baskett said.
But Baskett said Monday that the department has working on an inexpensive plan to reopen the park.
Department officials are holding a meeting to update park users about the plan tonight at 6 p.m.
The meeting will be held at the Pierce County Parks and Recreation Headquarters, located at the Lakewood Community Center at 9112 Lakewood Drive Southwest.
Riverside Park is home to the River Valley BMX Track and the Riverside Disc Gold Course.
Mark Hutko, the track operator at River Valley BMX, said he's been talking to county officials about how they can maintain the BMX track without having to spend loads of money to re-engineer it.
Hutko said that the land, which can't be developed due to its location on the river bed, still works well for BMX racing. BMX racers from throughout the Northwest use the track, he said.
"Maybe nothing can be built there," Lutko said today, "But for us that's perfect. We belong there."
Look for more about the future of Riverside Park and the River Valley BMX track in the paper later this week.

The ridge route is roughly parallel the valley route, and covers a similar distance. There are several pros and cons in comparison with the valley route. The ridge route does involve climbing some gentle peaks on a long ridgeline approach to get to the base of Makushin itself. This might add up to around 1500 more vertical feet or so to your total climb in comparison with the valley route. The valley route involves a lot of bogs and bushwhacking through vegetation of varying heights and thicknesses, as well as insidious swarms of black flies in summer. So it becomes a matter of picking one's poison.
Similar to the transportation required for the valley route, the ridge route begins across the bay from the town of Unalaska. But rather than starting in Broad Bay where the Makushin River drains, you will continue a little farther to the northeast just past the next ridge. There is a large waterfall that marks the small cove, and the cobbly beach there drops off well enough to make landing a skiff easy enough.
Once on the beach, you follow a ridge on your left as you look inland. It's not particularly steep, but does ascend fairly quickly to around 1500 feet before leveling out. Once on the ridge, Makushin itself will come into view in clear weather, and will remain in view to the west for much of the hike. There are some ups and downs, with a particularly low saddle where the drainage on the right feeds into Reis Bay, and there will be a lovely little lake on the broad saddle. After that the route will begin gaining more elevation. You can side hill some of the peaks if you wish to avoid gaining unnecessary elevation, but the last set of peaks before dropping onto the plateau at the base of Makushin will require you to ascend over 2000 feet at the minimum to get around an otherwise impassable gully that drops sharply to the Makushin Valley on the left. After that last climb, you will descend onto the broad plateau that separates Driftwood Bay and the Makushin Valley. This is where the valley approach meets up with the ridge route.
There's nothing technical as far as climbing on this route. In Winter or Spring, it will be snowy, but with very minimal if any avalanche danger as the ridge is broad with generally gentle slopes. You'll want crampons or at least micro spikes, and an ice axe might be needed. A GPS wouldn't be a bad idea to deal with cloud cover which can obscure whole sections of the route at times. If nothing else, a map and compass and good navigation skills should get you through anything but the absolute worst whiteout as long as you know what you are doing.
Gear required for the volcano itself will depend on conditions, but being ready for glacier travel is the most important thing. While the crevasse danger is low to almost non-existent on the main route, there are crevasses that may be wide enough to swallow a person, especially if you get off the main line.

The Unhappy Campers At Itt
For high rollers at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, the hot game is baccarat. For executives at ITT Corp., which owns Caesars, the game seems to be strip poker. After five months of fending off a $10.5 billion hostile takeover by Hilton Hotels Corp., ITT has either sold or is in the process of selling more than $2 billion in assets and could part with another $2 billion or so in the next few months.
The list now seems to extend to what ITT management once pointed to as the company's crown jewels. In early June, ITT admitted that it has entertained offers for some of its most lucrative properties, including The St. Regis in Manhattan and The Phoenician, near Phoenix. Knowledgeable sources say the properties ITT is contemplating selling could fetch $1.3 billion.
SCORCHED EARTH? Now, a small but growing number of key ITT investors is worrying that ITT's wheeling and dealing could seriously reduce the value of the business and drive Hilton away. On June 9, Hilton president and CEO Stephen F. Bollenbach sent a letter to ITT's board warning of just such a possibility. Already one investor, Michael F. Price, who runs Franklin Mutual Advisers and owns one million ITT shares, has hinted he would support a proxy fight at ITT's planned annual meeting in November if ITT's asset sales chase off Hilton. "If ITT really scorches the earth to get rid of [Hilton], it will still have to answer to its shareholders in November," he says. Other investors say that Soros Fund Management, an investment vehicle of superinvestor George Soros, might also support a proxy battle if Hilton gets chased off. A firm spokesman declined comment.
Price has been an activist investor in the past, most notably when he took a stake in Chase Manhattan Corp. before it merged with Chemical Banking Corp. and pressed management to do something to increase shareholder value. But ITT has a number of powerful shareholders. According to recent filings, the 10 biggest control nearly 31% of its stock. That means Hilton would need to sway few minds to elect its proposed slate of 25 directors. And investors have good reason to be frustrated. Hilton's Jan. 27 bid of $55 a share drove ITT's stock from $43 to $58.50, but it has languished since then. On June 11, the stock stood at $58.625.
ITT shareholders were comfortable with the early asset sales. But they got antsy on May 19, when ITT announced a deal to sell five Sheratons to FelCor Suite Hotels Inc. for $200 million. In the deal, ITT's Sheraton unit gets a 20-year contract to manage the hotels. But FelCor can refuse to transfer that contract to any other company. "I'm very upset by that deal," says Gordon Crawford, senior vice-president of Capital Research and Management Co., a major ITT shareholder. "It's a blatant attempt by management to sell off core assets to keep their jobs."
MUM'S THE WORD. ITT says FelCor insisted on the provision to ensure against a change in how their new property is managed. And ITT says it would consider selling its crown jewels only at a steep premium. But investors are worried that potential buyers of properties such as The St. Regis may demand the same protection.
Meanwhile, ITT isn't saying what it intends to do with the $2 billion it has raised so far from asset sales. "They had better do a self-tender or they're going to get strung up by their shareholders," warns Gabelli & Co. Chief Investment Officer Mario J. Gabelli, who controls nearly one million ITT shares.
Bollenbach says Hilton intends to stick around until November. "But that depends on what they do with the assets of this company," he says. "If they sell them off one by one, we sure won't be around." As the clamor from ITT's restive shareholders shows, patience in a takeover battle can disappear as fast as a stack of chips at a Vegas table.

Happy (Insert Holiday Here)!
It's officially wedding season….bbq season…
baby shower season, memorial day…
4th of July…..grill outs….
Summer's coming and all this gorgeous warm weather (Its going to be 90 degrees today in Chicago!) means finding every possible excuse to celebrate cold beer, blue skies, fresh food, and awesome friends!
It also means that Jenny from apartment 201 is probably going to ask you to bring an appetizer to tomorrow night's dinner party.
And what about that phone call from Mom about this weekend's memorial day bbq?…"Ok, so Grandma won't eat fish. Grandpa wants Salmon…what do you mean you're coming at 3?? I said 2! Bring an appetizer…See you at 2.'
You e-mail some girlfriends for a quick Friday night get- together….crap. I need an appetizer.
It's not just outdoor party season ladies and gents, its appetizer season!
And I don't know about you guys, but I want to be ready with the easiest, tastiest, make-ahead recipes I can get my hands on. The best part about random summer get togethers is that they're…. random! No time to rummage through cookbooks and slave away in the kitchen – I just want something I can whip up in 20 minutes and forget about until I get to the party.
And that is why I give you… 15 Minute Avocado, Tomato, and Cucumber Crostini with Creamy Sherry Vinaigrette ! This dish doubles as an appetizer and a side dish! It is absolutely DELICIOUS as crostini, but leave out the toasted baguette and you've got yourself a super yummy side salad!
Dinner party tonight and day time bbq tomorrow? Make a double batch of this and bring it as an appetizer on Friday and use the leftovers as a side dish the next day!
The sherry-dijon vinaigrette is awesome all by itself, but when it mixes with the buttery avocado it emulsifies into this deliciously creamy dressing with just the right amount of zing from the sherry and the right amount of cool from the cucumbers. Yum, Yum… and YUM.
Got 15 minutes?
Just kidding…. Enjoy in one more minute!
I want to send two very big hugs and a huge THANK YOU to C.J. from Food Stories and Kayle from The Cooking Actress for nominating me for the Food Stories Award for Excellence in Storytelling! You too are amazing and I'm sure by now you both know how obsessed I am with both of your blogs, I'm truly flattered you guys thought of me! :)
So the rules of this award are that I need to share one random thing about myself…. I think by this point I have shared too many random things about myself (sorry guys!), but here goes another!
….I LOVE color coordinating my closet.. Like rainbow style. Sometimes it looks super organized and other times it looks like Rainbow Bright exploded all over my room.

Hoyer Statement on Anniversary of the Civil Rights March on Washington
Katie Grant, 202-225-3130
WASHINGTON, DC - House Democratic Whip Steny H. Hoyer (MD) released the following statement today in honor of the anniversary of the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, which was Sunday, August 28th:
"Yesterday marked the 48th anniversary of the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, when more than a quarter million people came to our nation's capital to demand equality for all Americans, regardless of race, and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. gave his landmark 'I Have a Dream' Speech. Armed with the power of nonviolence, their efforts helped end a system of racial discrimination. Let us mark this anniversary by honoring the legacy of these civil rights activists who pursued justice for all Americans and rededicate ourselves to equality and fairness. While we have come a long way in achieving racial equality since the March 48 years ago, disparities in employment and opportunity still exist today. Democrats are committed to closing that gap and promoting equality and opportunity through our Make It In America plan, an effort to create well-paying, middle-class jobs so that every American has the chance to succeed."

The average American consumes almost 3,500 milligrams of sodium every day, much higher than the 1,500 to 2,300 milligrams that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends. Many restaurant dishes and processed convenience foods are high in salt, making it easy for you to get more than what is necessary to keep your body working properly. This puts your health at risk, so learn the signs and symptoms of including too much salt in your diet.
If you're constantly thirsty, you should have your sodium levels checked. The extra salt in your bloodstream causes your cells to lose water, which sends thirst signals to your brain. Your body hangs on to extra fluid to balance out the extra salt, causing swelling, or edema. This is typically most noticeable in your legs, ankles and feet. Other signs and symptoms of edema include muscle aches and pains, shortness of breath and a puffy face.
If you consume too much salt and don't drink additional water, you may start to experience dehydration. Symptoms of mild to moderate dehydration include dry mouth, dizziness, sleepiness, dry skin, constipation and headache. You can typically reverse mild to moderate dehydration by getting more fluids into your body. MayoClinic.com considers severe dehydration a medical emergency; symptoms include irritability and confusion, very dry mouth, minimal sweating and urine output, sunken eyes, shriveled skin, low blood pressure, rapid heartbeat and breathing, fever and delirium.
Kidney Stones
If you frequently suffer from kidney stones, you may want to watch your salt intake. When you eat too much salt, you get rid of extra calcium in your urine. According to the Linus Pauling Institute, too much calcium in your urine puts you at risk for kidney stones. The extra calcium you are losing also increases your chances of developing osteoporosis down the road. (source 3)
High Blood Pressure
High blood pressure is a strong indication you should cut back on the salt. If your blood pressure stays elevated, it can damage your heart, blood vessels and kidneys leading to heart attack and stroke. The good news is that by reducing your salt intake, you'll probably also reduce your blood pressure and risk for related diseases. A 2011 review of 167 studies published in the "Cochrane Database of Systemic Reviews" confirmed a low-sodium diet reduced blood pressure in patients, both with and without high blood pressure.
How to Reduce Sodium Intake
Gradually cut back on your sodium consumption, and pretty soon, you won't even miss it. Eat fresh fruits, vegetables and leans meat and opt for plain rice and pasta instead of the prepackaged seasoned varieties. Season them on your own using dried herbs, spices and citrus zest and juice instead of salt. Steer clear of salty condiments such as ketchup, soy sauce, mustard and dressing, which will quickly cause you to exceed the daily sodium maximum. Read nutrition labels when you're out shopping, and beware of sodium-containing ingredients, which include imonosodium glutamate, baking soda, baking powder, disodium phosphate, sodium alginate and sodium nitrate. MayoClinic.com advises you to steer clear of foods with more than 200 milligrams sodium per serving.

Think Progress » Rep. Trent Franks: African-Americans were better off under slavery.
Why reward robber-barrons who care nothing for the well-being of the Nation while expecting middle and low income earnings to bear the brunt?
Sometimes it looks like the division is between the responsible and irresponsible, or the productive and the dependent, or between the robber barrons and the oppressed masses, but these are just the consequent perceived divisions that result from that core of risk and uncertainty.
The oil barrons would spend all that excess profit to drum them out of office.
Liberals know that the average person equates "progressive" with "the progressive era" when muckrakers exposed the robber barrons and the franchise went out to all.
The president is not going to come out and say it straightforward, we are there to exert pressure over the oil barrons.

Higher education leaders concerned about budget cuts
Dec. 31, 2010 at 6:31 a.m.
Skimpy education budgets are the new-year trend, and higher education institutes are buckling down.
December state cuts already cost Victoria College $170,402 and the University of Houston-Victoria $322,000, and the forecast for January doesn't get brighter.
The two schools already submitted budget requests 10 percent lower than this year's pre-reduced spending plan.
Usually, the trimmed-down plan is only a hypothesis and schools are given more financial wiggle room after actual budget numbers are revealed in January, but this year the skinny budgets could be the reality.
"I think that all of this signals this is a very serious situation," said VC President Tom Butler. "So, we have to take this seriously. We could very well end up where we start off. It could be that bad."
To make the cuts, both schools are buckling down on costs while focusing on increasing enrollment.
"We are doing everything we can to reduce costs," wrote Don Smith, interim UHV president, in an e-mail. "The other side of that is we're working to increase our revenues through growth. Our basic priorities are to continue to fund growth and productivity, and to reduce as necessary funding of activities not immediately related to those goals."
Smith said the school is cutting back on things like travel, professional memberships and sponsorships, but focus won't change for enrollment growth.
"We must maintain our recruitment efforts, and we must provide the instruction and student services necessary to support enrollment growth," he wrote.
Higher enrollment numbers for VC will help the school ride the financial storm, but a detailed plan on what will be trimmed will come later.
"As we get more into the session, we'll have a clearer idea of what's going where and things we would be looking at more closely," he said.
Butler also said community colleges are pushing for the same healthcare benefits for employees.
"We want to make sure community college employees are treated the same as any other employees in terms of healthcare benefits," he said.
Another issue both entities are watching is textbook costs. At least two bills have been filed to try to make books cheaper for students.
House Bill 33 by Rep. Dan Branch, R-Dallas, calls for faculty to let students know different venues where they can get the materials, buyback plans and more. The bill also mandates publishers to detail differences between new editions and the three previous versions.
Smith questions if the bill will be effective if passed because books are a smaller education expense.
"It doesn't make economic sense to shortchange the teaching learning process to save relatively small amounts of money compared to the overall expense of getting an education," he said.
Another bill calls for textbooks to be tax-free for weekends at the beginning of both the fall and spring semesters.
"If there's a good idea out there that's going to lower the costs of books for students, then we're in favor of that," Butler said.

EDITORIAL: Schools, stadium names may face changes
Published 4:00 am, Wednesday, July 29, 2015
If the people of Port Arthur don't want schools named after Dick Dowling and Robert E. Lee anymore, they have every right to change those names. That's the basic concept of local control that should hold sway whenever possible. In our democracy, as much as feasible, people get to choose their local leaders, school mascots and issues like whether their library is open on Saturdays or not. After fair deliberation, the majority should rule.
Thus it should come as no surprise that the majority black population of Port Arthur - and undoubtedly other ethnic groups - are no longer comfortable with elementary schools named after Confederate figures. After all, Lee and Dowling were fighting for the side in the Civil War that wanted to continue slavery.
These kinds of changes may be unsettling to some, but they will happen more and more in our increasingly diverse nation. A key point is the public-private divide. If you want to put a bumper sticker on your car featuring the Confederate flag, you have the right to do that. Spending tax dollars to promote the Confederacy, however, is an entirely different issue. It understandably offends many Americans - again, of all races.
On a similar issue, if a majority of Beaumont residents want to change the name of the Carrol A. "Butch" Thomas Educational Support Center, that change should happen too.
Thomas is no longer held in the same esteem as when he was superintendent of the Beaumont ISD. This is precisely why buildings should not be named after living people. That honor should only come after someone's life's work can be fairly evaluated.
This doesn't have to be a racial issue either. Beaumont has plenty of African American figures worthy of this honor. And by the way, it's a high school football stadium, not an "Educational Support Center."
In our diverse country, it's hard to get unanimous agreement on anything.
But it all comes back to the cornerstone of democracy, which is majority rule. Let the debate begin, and let the majority prevail.

I must admit that I don't fully understand the calling of a street preacher. I'm referring to those people who stand on the corner and spread the gospel of Jesus Christ. I understand that it is a form of evangelism. They are trying to draw souls towards Christ. Nonetheless, there are a large number of street preachers that just flat out make me sick.
There are some people who have a great heart and they go out into the streets and convey God's message with love and compassion. These are not the people that I am talking about. I have a great deal of respect for all of the people who go out and minister in this way.
I am referring to the people who go to college campuses and stand on street corners around the world to preach hate. They say that they are Christians. They tell people that God wants them to change their lives. They tell gays, lesbians, fornicators, alcoholics and drug addicts that God hates them and that is just not true. They even use derogatory terms when referring to these people and Jesus would NEVER do that. The truth is, God may not be happy with a person's actions, but his love for EVERYONE is never ending.
What makes me sad is that for many people, street preachers represent Christians and Christianity. People already have misconceived notions about Christians and now some street preachers help feed into that stereotype. In an effort to win souls, they end up turning people away.
I have even witnessed good hearted Christians approach some street preachers and try to explain to them that there is a better way to reach people. Unfortunately, their good intentioned efforts fall on deaf ears.
If you notice, the majority of the crowds that surround these types of street preachers consist of two types of people. First, there are the people who are against Christianity. The fact that a particular street preacher is using the "God hates" method of evangelism only fuels their dislike for God and Christianity. The second group consists of other misinformed believers. They are not affiliated with the street preacher, but they completely agree with how the message is being delivered. When people try to refute what the street preacher is saying, these believers will come to his/her defense.
We should all pray for street preachers. I believe that in their heart, they truly love the Lord. I believe that they truly want to see others saved. Unfortunately, I don't think they genuinely understand the heart of God. If they did, they would alter their methods of evangelism. If they knew the true heart of God, they would know what to say and how to say it. I don't know about you, but I would not be in a hurry to follow a God that hates me.
God's love is powerful! It has the ability to transform any person or situation. As believers we should focus our energy on telling the world about the love of God.
What is your opinion about street preachers?

Helllllooooooo. I sort of feel like I could strip naked and walk around in this blog without disturbing a sole, because I'm pretty sure the place has been vacated.
I'm still without a computer. It's sucks and at the same time, I don't really have time to be indignant about it. However, it is putting some major stress on my camera. That poor thing needs to unload its contents….or I could get another memory card, but that would mean going to the store and buying one and that's just not gonna happen.
I'm neck-deep in planning graduation stuff for Ellen. It's not overwhelming it's just that I don't really know what I'm doing. I'm making her announcements and the wording seems all funky. I've looked up examples and I still think they all sound weird. Then there's the baccalaureate stuff and the open house that the senior parents are hosting and the photos that I need to get together for her slide show, I seem to be missing photos of her from 6th grade through 9th grade and I don't have many from her toddler years. I also have to make a memory board and a hurkin' lot of food and plan a party at our house. Oh, and Seth is in a play the same week that I'm supposed to be doing something for, but I'm not sure what. Did I mention we're trying to talk to a college coach about high jumping in the off-chance that Ellen might be able to join the team? So, Clay and I are coaching her as best we can, with Clay going to practice and me attending most of the meets. Clay and I have been calling Ellen's senior year The Giant Time Suck. And just in case you forgot, because sometimes I do, there are two small boys in the house that just started boy scouting. Lord, help the parent that signed them up for that……because he's exhausted and his wife refuses to hep with the whole scouting business with the exception of hosting a pack meeting and making two cakes, but that's it, no more help, I mean it, my answer is……maybe I can help you, but it doesn't mean I'll be happy about it, but really I mean NO when I say yes.
I would love to brag about all the kids' accomplishments this year, but ya know…without photos, meh.
In fact here is a photo I found on Clay's computer, you know, the only computer I can use to blog on these days? He's on the roof of a building probably taking measurements for something that needs to be torn down and redesigned or something very architectury….architechtey…archy techy, whatever, he's doing something on top of a building and he has about 50 more photos of this roof.
How exciting is that?!
Okay, what else?
Maybe I should list things real quick, because who knows when I'll post again? And we all know how much I love a list.
1. Seth turned 16. He's now a wee bit over 6'3 and he can't drive without an adult in the car until he's 17. I love Kansas, but these new restrictions on ages are killing my boys' chances of getting a job that doesn't rely on his mother's schedule.
2. I did a huglekulture in our back yard. Google it. It's cool. Except I haven't planted anything on it yet. So, basically I just have two mounds of dirt and sticks in my back yard.
3. I cried my eyeballs out at Ellen's last basketball game and it wasn't because they lost. It was because it was her last basketball game…ever.
4. Also, KU lost. And my town wept, but only after it partied its way to the Final Four and the Championship Game.
5. I think we're going to foster train some Dexter calves. More on that if it happens. And by that I mean, a fence has to happen.
6. Our mower died, which is why we might foster train some cows.
7. Getting a new mower would probably be easier than cows.
8. We never do things the easy way.
9. Speaking of easy, Clay tried to install can lights in our dining room.
10. I say try because now there are two holes in Ellen's floor and only one of the three lights he installed works.
11. What we thought would be an easy project has, of course, turned into a bit of a nightmare.
12. We now have to repair the ceiling in the dining room and the holes in Ellen's floor.
13. I probably won't get around to doing either of those things until I'm done painting the bathroom.
14. I ripped out all the wallpaper from our bathroom over Christmas.
15. I started painting the bathroom over Spring Break.
16. Maybe over July 4th I'll get it finished.
17. Did I mention we're having a big party here for Ellen's graduation?
18. Did I say I wasn't overwhelmed by the whole graduation thing?
19 That was a stupid thing to say.
20. A very stupid thing indeed.

The airwaves were for the sailors their only connection with life,
with family, with their beloved...and now a decision cut like a knife,
this perennial bond and romance of a world that is leaving..
The crew were in grieving...
to them it was a plan case of thieving.
Suddenly and completely unexpectedly,
you might say quite aggressively,
the wireless radio* on our ship went silent forever.
The order was explicit....
[it would not returned to operation ever.
The international agreement,
{in the future, ships will communicate
in another way and somehow decided to excommunicate
"radiotelegraphy", with all the emotional load that exists around it.
Seafarers and wireless for 100 years were tightly knit.
In the next port, our farewell to the Sparks*, *wireless operator
at the same time farewell to the post office,
romanticism and communism.... poor Marx...
In the strange new world of quanta and cyberspace,
unfortunately for us, the romantics, there is no place,
and the solution is, together with our memories to flee...
So let's wander with some flying Dutchman* in the boundless sea....
*Extract from "The Broken Mooring Line", an experiential
poetic work // page c61// e-mail: email@example.com //

* Wireless radio, Wireless telegraphy is the transmission of electric telegraphy signals without wires (wirelessly). It is now used as a historical term for early radio telegraphy systems which communicated with radio waves, although when the term originated in the late 1800s it was also used for a variety of other experimental techniques for communicating telegraphically without wires, such as photoelectric and induction telegraphy.
Wireless telegraphy came to mean Morse code transmitted by radio waves (electromagnetic waves), initially called "Hertzian waves" and by 1910 universally referred to as "radio", and the term has been largely replaced by the more modern term "radiotelegraphy".
Two United Nations-chartered organizations, the International Maritime Organization and the International Telecommunications Union, are responsible for defining and regulating maritime telecommunications systems. The most current system adopted by these two organizations is the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System, or GMDSS. Morse wireless telegraphy, used by ships for distress and safety communications since the beginning of the century, was discontinued by the USCG in 1995, and ceased worldwide on February 1, 1999. Many people owe their lives to this system.
* The Flying Dutchman is a legendary ghost ship that can never make port and is doomed to sail the oceans forever. The myth is likely to have originated from 17th-century nautical folklore. The oldest extant version dates to the late 18th century. Sightings in the 19th and 20th centuries reported the ship to be glowing with ghostly light. If hailed by another ship, the crew of the Flying Dutchman will try to send messages to land, or to people long dead. In ocean lore, the sight of this phantom ship is a portent of doom.

To start out ill give you some history of the vehicle.
2007 H3 W/ adventure package
90,000 miles
very little off-roading done (hence my handle)
Three months ago i go out to my H3 road warrior and it wont start when im trying to get to work. Battery isnt dead. so i just take the negative cable off and hard reset everything. hook it back up and im in business.
A few days after that my wife comes home from driving it and the key is stuck in the ignition. im thinking wtf. i walk out there and pull it right out. i thought she was crazy. next morning it wont start again. i notice there are two lights going off in the panel the engine light and a yellow car and lock symbol. ( passive lock symbol). i strugle with it for a few minutes and try to do a hard reset and when i go to start it up i put the key in the ignition and go to crank it and all the gauges and radio and warning light start going crazy. and it still wont start. i get pissed and slam the door... the freller starts to act right again.
i drive it this way for three months with this problem coming and going. i learn how to relearn a key to the passive lock system ( this works sometimes... Turning the key on and off in 10 sec intervals) i hard reset the rig, and when all else fails i slam the door( this surprisingly works wonders).
One week ago i was driving it home from work the parking brake light, traction control light, error message , TSM service waring, came on and off... then all the gauges reset and the dash light went out. all the while the radio was on wide open. and when i get home it want start.
i did some reading and found a thread on a different site that someone was having a similar issue and it turn out to be the BCM ( body control module)... but i dont think this is my problem because the BCM has nothing to do with the parking brake and traction control lights( i found a image online with a diagram of the BMC wiring)
i am ready to set it on fire
any wrench turner out there with some advice?.... ( should i start the fire from within or put a rag in the gas fill and run...jk)

Ombre is everywhere now - taking my own spin on it, I decided to paint our black frames a gradient of gray.
Our rental has three levels: 1st - garage and entryway, 2nd - bedrooms, 3rd - kitchen and living space. The living room is on the top floor because of the view
I am so grateful to be living by the ocean while we are on the west coast, it is beautiful and you can't beat the weather!
On to the landings ... we have several, so all that white space needs a pick me up! Since I won't be painting the walls (it is a rental after all) ... art is needed.
Here is the space with 3M picture hanging strips in place. These are great because you won't have to fill in lots of holes when you move (or change your mind) and they leave no marks when removed. We also think that they take less time to hang frames than nails.

In a conference with quarterbacks Lamar Jackson, Deshaun Watson, Jerod Evans, Mitch Tribusky, Eric Dungey, Deondre Francois, and Brad Kaaya among others, Georgia Tech's Justin has gotten lost in the shuffle. The senior has been the heart and soul of Georgia Tech football for the last few years. He just never quits, and he's usually at his best when the game is the on line. Remember he was also under center in 2014, when Georgia Tech won 11 games, won the Orange Bowl, and finished in the season in the top 10.
I said this back in early September when Justin Thomas led Georgia Tech to a game winning 4th quarter drive against Boston College.
Here comes QB Justin Thomas who has done this before. He's led critical 4th quarter under 5 minute drives to win or tie games against Georgia Southern, Georgia, Virginia Tech, and Florida State. Thomas made play after play in the decisive drive. He converted a 4th and 19. He converted a 3rd and 10. Georgia Tech got inside the BC and cashed in for the win.
Add another special 4th quarter to the list. Georgia Tech was reeling. At one point up 28-7, the Yellow Jackets defense fell apart. I'm mean completely apart and the Yellow Jackets with 9 minutes left in the game were down 35-31. Justin Thomas took control and led the Yellow Jackets to a go ahead TD. Then Georgia Tech got the ball back and faced a 3rd and 17. If Duke gets the ball back they are probably tying or taking the lead. Georgia Tech's defense was helpless in the 2nd half. Justin Thomas did what he has so many times during his Georgia Tech career, he made a critical play – running the for the first down.
He finished the game with a whopping 459 yards of offense and 4 total TDs. He threw for 264 yards and ran for another 195. He literally carried Georgia Tech to the win, and kept the Yellow Jackets bowl hopes alive as they moved to 5-3.
This isn't a great Georgia Tech team. It really isn't even a good one, but it is better than last year and Justin Thomas is still the quarterback. He gives Georgia Tech a chance in just about every game they play in. Georgia Tech is probably out of the Coastal race, but a bowl game is in sight. It would be great to see the underappreciated Thomas, finish his Georgia Tech with a post-season game and possible win.

Same-sex marriage was brought to us by…
And how did that work out? (more…)
the same people who gave us the Sexual Revolution.
And how did that work out? (more…)
At least at Harvard.
"While approximately 1.8 percent of the general United States population identifies as bisexual, 7.9 percent of Harvard's Class of 2021 says they are bisexual."
"Bisexuals comprised 2.5 percent of Harvard's 2017 class, 2.6 percent in the 2018 class, 4.9 percent in the 2019 class, and 5.7 percent in the 2020 class."
"The percentage of heterosexuals admitted hovered around 90 percent for the classes of 2017 and 2018, but has since fallen to 82.4 percent." (more…)
The same people, or socio-political faction, who gave us the sexual revolution. And how did the sexual revolution work out? What has been its net effect on society?
And why should we trust them this time around?
This is a follow-up to a previous post.
The margins have already begun to creep. The article illustrates points that I've made in comments here and at Millennialstar.org. Especially how the changes start in the younger age cohorts and accelerate with each upcoming age group. (more…)
(Guest post from a correspondent, based on an email exchange that began before the Benedict Option post)
Has there been a discussion of how Mormons might meet the Benedict option? Is it possible to be Benedictines and missionaries? It's a discussion the Mormons on the internet should be having if they have not yet. (more…)
Freedom of conscience for me, but not for thee.
Will this turn-about be considered fair play?
"With Christian or Jewish presuppositions, or indeed Muslim, then if you believe in what it says in Genesis 1 about God making heaven and earth—and the binaries in Genesis are so important—that heaven and earth, and sea and dry land, and so on and so on, and you end up with male and female. It's all about God making complementary pairs which are meant to work together. The last scene in the Bible is the new heaven and the new earth, and the symbol for that is the marriage of Christ and his church. It's not just one or two verses here and there which say this or that. It's an entire narrative which works with this complementarity so that a male-plus-female marriage is a signpost or a signal about the goodness of the original creation and God's intention for the eventual new heavens and new earth."
Scholar NT Wright explains marriage, and gay marriage and scripture
It's here. With a couple different meanings.
[Edited so as not to give link-cred to certain web sites.]
Pat: Gay marriage is a mistake because marriage is about children. Two men or two women can't have children together accidentally or on purpose.
Mike: So if you're infertile, you can't get married?
What ho, what ho, what ho!
As a sagacious and experienced man of the world, I am often called on to render my two bits on the events of the day. In recent years one's interlocutors have been rather pressing on this matter of what is called, if I have the terms right, frolicsome marriage. One isn't au courant on all the details, of course, but begging pardon for any blushes mantling maidenly cheeks, as Jeeves explained it to me the whole caboodle has to do with a matrimony where the conjugal relations suffer from a distinct lack of variety. Rather! It hardly seems likely, but he insists. Buttonhole the fellow if you want more information. (more…)
Gay men are equal to straight men. Same with gay women. That means the day will come when God will help them be everything they need to be so they can have a regular Adam and Eve marriage with children of their own. Gays may be born that way, but God won't make them stay that way.
If they never could get married to the opposite sex, that would mean they weren't equal to us.
Elder Christofferson preached Sunday that the aim of the gospel is to draw down "perfect justice and infinite mercy" from heaven. The phrase stuck with me. Perfect justice and infinite mercy. (more…)
The Tolerance Inquisition has won a significant victory against Card.

Credit cards are useful financial tools that can prove indispensable to consumers navigating their way through the modern economy. Not only do cards free individuals from the need to carry large sums of cash when making a large purchase, they also make it possible to purchase, use and enjoy items not yet fully paid for. Unfortunately, it is possible to use credit cards in ways that can cause long-lasting damage to an individual's financial prospects.
New card users sometimes do not realize that many facets of their spending behavior are being tracked, so that future lenders can evaluate their capacity to pay back borrowed money on time. Financial institutions considering doing business with you will be able to see how many cards you have, how much money you owe on each card, and how many times in the past few years you have skipped payments or submitted them late. Using such information, lenders will decide to accept or decline your application for any kind of loan in the future. This applies to probably the most important loan that anyone ever applies for, namely a mortgage.
Using credit cards wisely
A first step to responsible and informed credit card use is to choose the right card. Consumers may believe that a low interest rate is the only important consideration, but other factors must also be taken into account. A high annual fee may drain more money from a consumer's pocket, for example, than will a free card with a slightly higher monthly interest rate.
Another vital element to consider is the grace period allowed by the card. Some credit cards begin charging interest from the day a purchase is made. Others do not charge interest until almost a full billing cycle has elapsed. This latter situation gives the consumer a chance to pay off purchases before interest begins to accumulate. In the long run, an adequate grace period can represent significant savings for a consumer.
Using credit cards while staying out of debt
Modest fees and a low interest rate can make a card more affordable, but responsible card users also understand that they must be careful to keep their purchases within reasonable limits. It can be quite tempting for new cardholders to go on a spending spree, buying items that seem within their reach for the first time. Such charges may not be sustainable, however, particularly if the consumer overspends month after month.
Cardholders can avoid overspending if they follow two simple rules. The first is to never charge more in a month than you can pay off using money from your bank account. The second is to have the discipline to pay off each credit card obligation in full each month. These rules assure that a revolving balance will not accumulate.
Those individuals that are more comfortable maintaining a card balance may not wish to pay off the amount owing in full each month, but they should be aware that revolving balances accrue interest even on cards with generous grace periods. Over time, the cost of an item may be doubled or even trebled if consumers take a long time to pay it off. Often cards are structured such that the minimum payment due will keep debt active for many years. This is not to a consumer's advantage. Wise credit card users will always pay as much as they can each month in order to retire debt quickly. The "minimum payment" amount should be regarded as a last resort.
Managing credit cards and credit history
Many consumers are surprised to learn that having too many cards is considered a negative factor by lenders since several cards can mean that a consumer has the potential to accumulate a great deal of debt quickly. Financial institutions evaluate loan applicants based largely on the ratio of their income to total potential debt load. Being able to use credit excessively will make an applicant's income appear too low in comparison to possible future debt. This will cause some lenders to offer such "risky" applicants a higher interest rate. Other lenders may simply refuse to issue a mortgage at all.
Consumers should, therefore, shed credit cards that they do not need; one or two cards are sufficient for most people. Another important element to managing credit cards and your credit history is to cancel unwanted cards properly. When a lender sees only that a card has been cancelled, the presumption may be that the card company had reason to distance itself from a given customer. Consumers should therefore avoid cancelling cards over the phone, as this usually produces no useful paper trail. Instead, cancel cards in writing and save copies of all correspondence so that you can demonstrate in future that it was your decision, not the card company's, to end the business relationship.
Credit cards offer consumers convenience, but they also help them to demonstrate their creditworthiness so that mortgages and other essential loans are more likely to be available to them in the future. In order to secure this second advantage, however, consumers must use credit cards with the care that all important financial transactions deserve.

Shaved Ice – Dec. 20
Lots of high school hockey photos posted on our site today.
After we sent the latest edition of MiHockeyMag to the printers, we headed down to the Joe for a day of high school hockey. While we're going to have a very special video coming out soon, we have already posted photo galleries for all three games. Click on the match-up below to see the photos:
Today's Michi-gamer nod goes to Luke Glendening. The Grand Rapids native and former captain of the Wolverines played in his first AHL game with the Griffins last night, and he scored his first goal, on his first shot, on his first shift. Not a bad way to start.
Team USA picked up a 3-2 OT win over Sweden today in a World Juniors tune-up contest.
And, in not-as-exciting news, the Red Wings announced today that all NHL games through Jan. 14. That means that just over half of all NHL games have now been canceled.
Here's the Red Wings TV video of the Cadillac vs. Big Rapids game. The two teams won the DRW contest to have their game covered as if they were playing an NHL game at The Joe.
Finland knocked off Canada 3-2 in a World Juniors tune-up game today. Surprising loss for our neighbors to the north; Canada is expected to only have trouble with the U.S. and Russia.
NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly still thinks we will see an NHL season this year. Hmmm…I struggle to believe him.
Alex Galchenyuk will stay with Team USA for the duration of the World Juniors, even if the NHL comes back.
We've got a contest up and running on both our Twitter and Facebook pages. Here's one of the graphics…
See everybody tomorrow.

Surrey has been the fastest growing city in B.C. for some time, and new numbers show that it's booming again.
In 2015, the value of residential construction — condos, townhouses, houses and high-rises — reached $1.46 billion, almost matching the highest total of $1.49 billion from 2007, right before the global economic crisis hit.
Framer Gary Singh lives the boom every day, with no shortage of work opportunities thanks to the wave of construction projects that have hit Surrey.
"It's been really busy. Like, crazy busy," Singh told CBC News. "You don't even get any time to do anything else."
All the new development also drives a need for new amenities — things like schools, libraries and recreation facilities.
Surrey Mayor Linda Hepner admits it's a challenge to keep up.
"Well, we knew the growth was going to happen and infrastructure is always a struggle, but we have a plan in place." Hepner said.
Overcrowding in some Surrey schools has been an issue for years and the Surrey School District and city continue to lobby the province for more money.
"We're pretty packed," said Surrey School District spokesman Doug Strachan. "We're well over capacity at the two secondary schools in this area, and we have been for some time."
A new $55-million secondary school with a capacity for 1,500 students from Grade 8 to 12 is slated to to be completed in the Clayton North area in 2017.
Surrey's population is expected to surpass Vancouver's within the next decade.

Teen Driver Severely Injured in St. George Crash
Published on June 25, 2014 at 12:43PM
Authorities say they believe alcohol and speed were factors in a St. George crash that severely injured a teenage girl. The 15-year-old driver flipped the Ford Explorer in St. George at about 10 p.m. Monday, hitting a chain-link fence. Four passengers, all teenage boys, went to the hospital with minor injuries. One of the boys was thrown from the vehicle in the crash. Emergency workers pulled the 15-year-old girl form the car. She is reported to be in a Las Vegas hospital with severe head trauma. Police say underage drinking charges could be filed in connection with the accident. St. George police Sgt. Dave Williams tells the Spectrum of St. George an investigation continues.

Protecting the unique plants and animals that live on Madagascar while fueling economic growth has been a priority for the Malagasy state, international donors, and conservation NGOs since the late 1980s. Forest and Labor in Madagascar shows how poor rural workers who must make a living from the forest balance their needs with the desire of the state to earn foreign revenue from ecotourism and forest-based enterprises. Genese Marie Sodikoff examines how the appreciation and protection of Madagascar's biodiversity depend on manual labor. She exposes the moral dilemmas workers face as both conservation representatives and peasant farmers by pointing to the hidden costs of ecological conservation.
