El Rio Preserve is a 104- acre site that has served a variety of uses for many years. In the 18th century, Juan Bautista de Anza and his followers camped on this site during their journey from Southern Arizona to San Francisco. More recently, the Arizona Department of Transportation used this location as a gravel borrow pit for large infrastructure projects. Over the past several decades, disc golfers have constructed a series of targets throughout the site, and periodically, the flood waters from surrounding neighborhoods have created a seasonal lake, attracting a variety of migratory birds.
Sign-up today to receive project updates for the El Rio Preserve.
Tucked into a pocket of the upper Tucson Mountains, El Rio Preserve functions as a collecting basin for both run-off from the mountain slopes and overflow from the Santa Cruz River. This confluence of geologic features affords spectacular views of granite and gneiss intermixed with the younger volcanic rocks that produce the vibrantly red hues that distinguish these peaks. To the east is a wide open flood plain of the lower Santa Cruz River, which occasionally becomes a turbulent waterway after heavy rains.
Physical Address: 10190 N. Coachline Blvd; Marana, AZ 85743
El Rio Preserve offers the Marana community a number of benefits which must be considered in any site plan.
Rich riparian habitat for nesting and migratory birds. More than 200 species of birds have been observed here.
Stormwater retention basin that prevents flooding of nearby neighborhoods.
El Rio is one of the links in the chain of preserved riparian habitat along the Lower Santa Cruz River, including sites such as Sweetwater Wetlands and Kino Environmental Restoration Project
Natural land features, like mounds and shade trees, that support a variety of land uses and nature viewing.
Site is identified as a regionally important wildlife linkage
Any added features must be compatible with the characteristics of natural habitat and wildlife linkage
The Town is developing alternatives for 25-year storm bank protection or a reinforced berm, which will:
Reduce mosquito problems by reducing flood frequencies and standing, stagnant water
Reduce the amount of trash and invasive weed seeds that flow in during storm events
Reduce concerns of overbank flooding
Create an urban oasis for wildlife and residents
Preserve and enhance an important riparian area
Allow the Town to create an outdoor classroom space for local schools.
Improve the Town's ability to perform routine maintenance at the site
El Rio Project Updates
Updated: September 2018
The Town of Marana has complete engineering and landscaping plans for El Rio Preserve. A request for bids for landscaping along the SW corner of El Rio, near the parking lot, will be advertised in the next 2-3 months (called Phase 1A). This upland area can be revegetated prior to bank protection because it's unlikely to flood. The bid request will include the turnout from Cortaro-Marana Irrigation District to provide water for ponds in the future.
The riparian restoration project has to be phased because it will cost approximately $2M to complete the entire master plan. We just submitted a grant proposal to help fund removal of invasive species and planting natives, with water harvesting basins and a drip irrigation system, (called Phase 1A – see map below) at the southwest corner of the property, near the parking lot.
Much of the work will have to wait until Pima County Flood Control District completes bank protection that will exclude floods of up to 25-year events. Bank protection is needed to avoid heavy flooding, sedimentation, invasive plants, and mosquitos. The bank protection project is estimated to cost about $1.5M. The design will be initiated this fall and will take approximately one year. Then construction will take another 12-18 months. These things take time – to fund, to obtain all of the needed permits, and to construct!
Tucson Audubon Society and the Town of Marana teamed up with volunteers to plant a pollinator garden at the parking lot on Coachline Blvd., using funding from the Partners for Fish and Wildlife Grant. The garden has already been attracting butterflies!
Updated: May 2018
The Town of Marana has 100% construction plans for the southwestern portion of the property and a master plan for the entire site, thanks to the Water Infrastructure Financing Authority grant.
In January 2018, the Town cleaned up the huge pile of trash that washed in during flooding in 2017. They filled four roll-off trash bins.
Pima County has agreed to allow a new disc golf course on their land, adjacent to the southeastern corner of El Rio Preserve property, and design is currently being finalized.
Marana Parks & Recreation Department will be developing an overall El Rio Recreation Master Plan. This plan will encompass the entire El Rio Recreation Area, including the 104 ac. El Rio Preserve, 54 ac. - 18 basket Disc Golf Course, Shared User Path 4 mile section on the Santa Cruz, El Rio Pocket Park, and additional parking area on MUSD site.
The Town is working with the Tucson Audubon Society to create a pollinator garden by the Loop Trail parking lot on Coachline Blvd. Funding is provided by a grant from Partners for Fish and Wildlife. An interpretive sign will be placed near the pollinator garden, explaining the importance of pollinators and the reasons for their decline.
Marana continues to monitor and treat for mosquitos as needed.
Pima County and the Town are working on an intergovernmental agreement to build bank protection along the Santa Cruz River. Design by Pima County Regional Flood Control District will begin later this summer, and construction will begin in early fall of next year (2019). This will help reduce issues with mosquitos, trash, and invasive weed seeds that germinate at El Rio once floodwaters recede.

Natural Talent: Kite Aerial Photography in the USAWritten by Wolfgang Bieck; English translation by Kurt Loeffler
Our aerial picture trip around the world by kite leads us, after a stop-over in the Old World, to the New World. Let us jump over the big pond after we have visited Asia and Europe to look at the third continent in our trip—North America.
A couple of years ago Ralf Beutenagel told me about a young American who amazed "the old timers" of the KAP scene and left them standing there absolutely astonished with their mouths open. During the first international KAP conference in Pacific Grove, California in 2002 (KAPiCA / 02), Scott Haefner demonstrated his aerial photography in the so-called "360° Virtual Reality." And after intensive research on the internet I understood the reason why even experienced aerial photographers had been speechless. At the same time I became truly fond of Haefner's digital aerial picture technique. His pictures outshine almost everything that was technically possible earlier.
Incredible Variety
Scott Haefner is a professional photographer and web designer. A visit to his web site (http://scotthaefner.com/) should be obligatory for every KAP fan. Everyone who takes a look at Scott's breathtaking images will inescapably start daydreaming looking at the blue of the Californian sky and the huge variety of images in the western United States Scott captured within only a few years.
Scott demonstrates the potential of Kite Aerial Photography in its seemingly unlimited variety through his tireless efforts—not only in the San Francisco Bay Region where he lives. With his exceptionally professional photographic view, he not only catches his motives, he re-discovers them using modern techniques. In January 2002, only a bit more than five years ago, Scott began taking aerial pictures using a kite. Despite this relatively short period of time, Scott has a large collection of very informatory aerial photographs. I particularly liked his 360° panorama of the St. Andreas Fault which you can admire on his web site. And which photographic image could emphasize the advantages of the aerial kite photography better than an image like this which documents one of the world-famous geological settings of the global continental drift.
Like most KAP folks, Scott does not try to keep his formula of success only to himself. He mentions and names the equipment he uses to take pictures on his site. All I can say is: it's your own fault if you do not check out his web site!
If you take a closer look and recall the KAP equipment of the past twenty years, you will be able to recognize the influence of many innovative aerial picture photographers on Scott Haefner's picture collection. The transmitter case with belt bears the hallmarks of the imaginative and assiduous Dutchman Peter Bults. His Picavet mount traces back to Wolfgang Bieck's original modifications. It was Sport & Design author Ralf Beutenagel who notably enhanced the opportunities for taking aerial pictures in low wind conditions with his Dopero and Maxi-Dopero kites—an achievement that should not be underestimated and the reason Scott uses the Maxi-Dopero in low wind conditions. Furthermore, he uses a screen modification on his Sutton Flowforms, which was developed by the French engineer Christian Becot to assure a safe KAP session. And like no one else, James Gentles has extrapolated the advantages of micro-electronics for aerial kite photography. Consequently, Scott uses the 18-gram "gentLED Auto" intervalometer for taking 360° panoramas and the 8-gram "gentLED" infrared trigger for activating the shutter on his Nikon coolpix 8400 rig.
Scott Haefner, the natural talent from the USA, exemplifies that like-minded Kite Aerial Photographers can use a worldwide network to explore the world from a bird's eye view.

Myfreecopyright.com will be a big disappointment when you seek copyright protection. Search no copyright protection and don't register your work at Myfreecopyright.com or any of these free service sites at all. For this there are professionals who have knowledge about international copyright laws, such as DMCA.
This is an old publication from DEC 29, 2015. The party in question stopped in 2017. This publication now serves as an educational material. Never hand over your creations to a website to protect your work. Consult your lawyer for legal advice.
The article explain you why I warn you not to make use of the website Myfreecopyright.com, who is behind this scam website and how you can protect your work correctly.
What / Who Is Myfreecopyright.com?
Myfreecopyright.com is a free service where you are able to register your work(and upload creations) i.e. blogs, images, videos etc. that generates a MCN code. Like CBZEG-7QF41-MY14Z. The site claims it automatically scan the Internet on a regular basis to see if your creation is copied.
But according to the U.S. Copyright law your work is under copyright protection the moment it is made and fixed in a tangible form it is perceptible either directly or with the aid of a machine or device. In other words, myfreecopyright.com is unnecessary. The very worst thing is: People give their creations away to myfreecopyright.com. Do you know to whom you give your creation to? No? I can already see you scratching your head.
"People who upload inventions and creations to similar websites transfer title to the website owner(s)"
One thing that the website in question is good at, is hiding contact details. Don't you think that's strange? It would be very nice to whom you entrust your rights and creation. And what if you have a lawsuit? You will knock against the wall, not against the door. Already 899,069 entrust their work to an anonymous party, shocking isn't?
Let's reveal the identity.
Matthew Whittaker from San Francisco Bay Area founded Myfreecopyright.com on May, 2006 and registered the domain myfreecopyright.com on April 14, 2006 at GoDaddy.com. After 6 years and 1 month Matthew sold it to an unknown party. From 2012 the site transformed into a scam site.
July 12, 2012 on twitter, KazeLoon tweets someone has "HACKED INTO MY ACCOUNT AT www.myfreecopyright.com AND DELETED ALL MY COPYRIGHT DATA"
On July 16th, WorldNet NewsWires, from their twitter handle @WNNWs, gets involved by warning people to check their accounts because they may be gone. Soon after, it became apparent that the first tweet was true – MyFreeCopyright had closed out all accounts from before June 2012.
The New Owner of Myfreecopyright.com is Regge Chan
I found out that Regge Chan took over myfreecopyright.com. Because everything has gone so mysterious, I do not believe that this is about his real name. I have also his physical address:
Floor 11 Flat A 19
Bonmah Road
Hong Kong
Phone: +852.853.28842971
Fax +852.6565321170
His name and address was both used as the administrative contact as well as the technical contact, but he quickly hide his contact details. I have also an e-mail address, which is still in use. It's [email protected] Nice to know you entrust your copyrights and work to someone use ASS in his e-mail.
The person who is responsible for deleting accounts those were made before 2012, the person behind the cover name Regge Chan is David Siu.
The city of the profile match with the city of the old who is data of the domain name. No guts, no glory!
How Do I Copyright Protect My Work?
Your work is under copyright protection the moment it is made, when created store your evidence you created it somewhere safe. When i upload a video i screen capture(video) and create a print screen of the creation date (right click the file, properties, details) and upload information data on Youtube(under edit video). Articles and images too. I store it on my Google Drive which leaves also data. I use Open Broadcast Software to screen capture my proof of ownership.
Registration is only required when it comes to protecting ideas and discoveries. Copyright protects original works of authorship, while a patent protects inventions or discoveries. Ideas and discoveries are not protected by the copyright law, although the way in which they are expressed may be. A trademark protects words, phrases, symbols, or designs identifying the source of the goods or services of one party and distinguishing them from those of others.
More info: Copyright.gov
My Experience
Someone republished my work on his channel as his own, and was quickly removed by Youtube upon i've flagged the stolen content. But the thief took revenge and claimed my content as his own. He tried to create evidence by registering my video at myfreecopyright.com as his own. Unfortunately he forgot that the upload date of the original video will always remain older, in this case older than the date he claimed on myfreecopyright.com. This shows that everyone can register other copyright protected work as their own on this scam site.
My last advice, do you have an account on this website? Change your passwords on your social media, e-mails etc. quickly!
No More Victims
After the publication of this article the owner of the myfreecopyright.com decided to take his website down. Case Closed!

PAGE TWENTY-TWO THE PHAROS-TRIBUNE ud LOGANSPORT PRESS, LOGANSPOBT, INDIANA SUNDAY, DECEMBER «, 1S3t Yf ARS Are You Over 50? . . . Here's A Notebook By THOMAS COLLINS Here, as the new year comes on, is a retirement notebook for anyone past 50 years old. It is condensed from the retirement experiences of people over the country in the last 12 months. It's not gospel—very little you read on retirement is. But it's a guide that may be valuable to you. 1. Take with a grain of salt everything told you by a person already retired. A man will retire to Hog Hollow, Ga., tell you it's .wonderful—when he wishes to Heaven he had never seen the place. He will -tell you he's too busy to do everything he wants to—when he's had' nothing to do but sit for four months. He will tell you he's getting along fine—when he 'can't pay the milk bill. And these are nice people, not bad ones. It seems to be an occupational disease of retirement" to color the facts. So use your own good judgment. 2. Be satisfied with 4 to 5 per cent return on any money you have to invest. Go hunting for more and you can lose your pants. 3. There is no good place for retirement. There is no bad place. V/here you are right now is probably as good as anywhere else. People, not climate, determine whether you'll be happy. 0£ course people look prettier under an orange tree than they do in a blizzard, and I don't thintf you can kid yourself about that. Provided you will know somebody under an orange tree who will talk to you. 4. Traveling, which every 64- money, and go to your children for it, you may find—if you're an average parent—that it's like getting gold pieces out of a village pump. Again, it's the order of things in this atomic age. 6. A retired' couple can live in Arizona, California, or Florida on an income of 5200 a month. Not too well, but adequately. In a small, unpublished town an income of $200 a month carries prestige with it. 7. A person, particularly a man, feels a loss of prestige and a loss of financial security when he retires. He also feels 'the loss of a big brother. A company can, and does, throw its weight around for more than a handful of idle retired people who -were happy. I have not seen a single busy retired person who wasn't. 11: Retired people who hold 'to their home, to live in or to rent, fare better . . . Husbands who fail to teach their wives the facts of life about insurance, investments, and Social' Security before they retire are foolish . . . Wives who don't dedicate their major efforts to keeping their retired -husbands healthy are foolish. There are too many widows around.. 12. Why don't you take next week to bring the family Bible up to date . . . with births, deaths, marriages, etc.? And put in a few notes about your honors in business. Some descendant, some future day, will love you for it. (COPYRIGHT 1957, GENERAL FEATURE CORP.) year-old dreams of, is great sport i an employee occasionally.

A species in decline: genetic diversity and conservation of the Victorian eastern barred bandicoot, Perameles gunnii
- 813 Downloads
- Citations
The eastern barred bandicoot, Perameles gunnii, has undergone a dramatic decline in distribution and abundance on the mainland of Australia during the twentieth century. In 1988 a captive breeding program was initiated to reduce the chance of extinction. With the extinction of the last wild mainland population in the early 1990s, reintroductions from captive-bred P. gunnii have met limited success, and currently only two extant populations persist in predator proof enclosures in the State of Victoria. With ~20 years of breeding, there are concerns that the genetic diversity within the breeding program has declined and may inhibit current and future success of the program. We have used ten nuclear microsatellite loci and sequencing of two partial mitochondrial genes (cytochrome oxidase I and ATPase 6) to determine genetic diversity within current Victorian P. gunnii. These diversity estimates are compared with historic samples from the captive breeding program dating back to 1995, historic samples from the last wild mainland population found at Hamilton in 1992 and contemporary Tasmanian wild populations. Results indicate that the captive P. gunnii population in the State of Victoria has lost significant genetic diversity through time. Genetic diversity is also reduced in populations at Hamilton Community Parklands and Mount Rothwell. Samples from the last wild population at Hamilton collected in 1992, along with samples from Tasmanian P. gunnii, had significantly greater genetic diversity than contemporary mainland populations. The results are discussed with reference to management options for maintaining genetic diversity within Victorian P. gunnii, including crossing Victorian and Tasmanian P. gunnii to increase genetic diversity, adaptability and evolutionary potential.

In areas without written historical records, where archaeological and ethnographic data are absent or sparse, language forms the backbone of our understanding of socio-cultural history. This project investigates one such region, in eastern Indonesia. What can languages spoken in the Lesser Sunda Islands today tell us about the histories of its various population groups? Answering this question requires a productive conjunction of contact linguistics, historical linguistics, and language typology studies. Our methodology includes quantitative cross-validation of qualitative research, and careful control of the variables that is uniquely enabled by the situation of the Lesser Sundas.
A fundamental idea in historical and contact linguistics is that similarities between geographically close languages are not accidental, but point to a shared history of their speakers. Either, the speakers descend from a common ancestor, and the similar features were passed down the generations (vertical transmission); or they are, or once were, in mutual contact, and adopted features from one language into the other (horizontal transmission). Classic methods in historical comparative linguistics largely focus on vertical transmission and internally motivated changes, aiming to reconstruct the common ancestor and mutual relationships within groups of related languages. Language contact studies, on the other hand, focus on patterns and constraints in externally motivated changes. Truly unravelling the linguistic history of a region requires an approach which combines the historical comparative method with a constrained theory of language contact (Harrison 2003), investigating both vertical and horizontal transmission.
Studying the past through a linguistic lens also implies that we study change and retention in both the lexical and the grammatical domain, as both are influenced by different dynamics of contact and retention, and show different types of traces. Lexicon is easily borrowed; grammar is not (cf. Thomason 2001: 70-71, 2010). Within the lexicon, items have different borrowability, e.g., nouns are more easily borrowed than verbs. Loan words suggest contact in particular socio-semantic domains like religion, politics, or technology at specific moments in time (e.g. abbey, prince < French; dike, dam < Dutch), datable by their spread through a group of languages and level of integration into individual languages. They reflect cultural systems (e.g., kinship) and social networks.
Changes in sentence grammar can also point to foreign influence, but syntactic changes follow different paths and are induced by different sociolinguistic contexts than changes in the lexicon, typically involving more intimate and long-term contact. For instance, in a situation where speakers are bilingual from childhood, the intensity of contact is much higher and has different outcomes than in language contact through casual trade. In turn, contact through childhood bilingualism differs in intensity from bilingualism where post-adolescents or adults adopt a second language.
Apart from life-stage loci of change and intensity of contact, many other factors determine the linguistic outcomes of contact, including the social status of the languages, the language attitudes of the speakers, the degree of (geographical, social) isolation of the community, and the duration of contact. Given the number and variety of factors that bring about linguistic change through contact, efforts to develop universally valid models for contact-induced changes have been met with skepticism. Thomason claims that: '...deterministic predictive theories of contact-induced change [...] are doomed' (2007:41). Historical linguists have found few if any constraints in language contact: '...any linguistic feature can be transferred from any language to any other language' (Thomason and Kaufman 1988:14). On the other hand, language contact specialists argue that not all types of borrowing are equally likely to happen (e.g., Matras 2007); that contact-induced transfers may be shaped by universal principles of grammaticalization (Heine and Kuteva 2005); and that specific contemporary contact settings constrain transfer in various ways (Sankoff et al. 1988).
In searching for constraints on contact-induced transfer, case studies in this project investigate specific paths of change that occur in the language of multilingual individuals. This provides a bottom-up perspective that is fundamentally different from studies that start from the resulting language situation to retrace the factors that brought it about (cf. Curnow 2001). We will conduct three case studies of ongoing change in individuals in contemporary contact situations, varying in intensity of contact, language status, direction and time-depth, applying the 'scenario' approach (Muysken 2010) adduced with evidence about socio-cultural history and cultural contact. The resulting models will be quantitatively validated. Because the contact situations occur between Papuan and Austronesian languages, the structural typology of the languages is kept constant in the comparison, with social context and types of change as variables.
These studies will provide a clearer picture of ongoing changes in the languages of the Lamaholot-Pantar-Alor (LPA) region. This will show which social circumstances and types of contact lead to which patterns of change - including changes that do not happen. As such, it will refine (probabilistic) constraints on contact-induced transfer. We also expect to gain detailed insight into the types of grammatical change that occur when languages of different typological profiles are in contact. This is of high theoretical relevance, as it will yield a clearer distinction of vertically and horizontally transmitted language features. Thus, it will expand the scope and the reliability of linguistic findings for reconstructing the past of population groups in the region, and produce a methodology that can be utilised elsewhere in the world.
Within the Lesser Sundas, we focus on the region indicated on Figure 1. Covering a latitudinal distance of almost 200 kilometers, it includes east Flores and adjacent islands, Pantar and Alor. These islands are the westernmost place where Austronesian and Papuan languages meet (fn. 1). In the west, the Austronesian languages Lamaholot and Alorese are spoken; in the east, the Papuan languages of Pantar and Alor. Below we refer to this geographical region as the aforesaid "Lamaholot-Pantar-Alor (LPA) region", as distinct from the linguistic grouping "Alor-Pantar (AP) family". The AP family consists of some twenty languages, including Western Pantar, Teiwa, Kaera, Blagar, Adang, and Abui (Fig 1.). It is related to the five Papuan languages spoken on Timor and Kisar (Schapper et al., to appear).

The Austronesians are commonly assumed to have arrived in the area ~3,000 Before Present (BP) (Pawley 2005:100, Spriggs 2011). The origin and age of the AP family, which is located some 1000 kilometers away from the Papuan mainland and surrounded by islands with Austronesian languages, is less clear. One hypothesis holds that they are descendants of immigrants from New Guinea who arrived in the Lesser Sundas 4,500-4,000 BP (Bellwood 1997:123, Ross 2005:42, Pawley 2005). However, recent bottom-up historical comparative research (Robinson and Holton 2012, Holton and Robinson, to appear b) argues that there is no lexical evidence to support an affiliation with the Trans New Guinea languages (cf. Wurm, Voorhoeve, McElhanon 1975, Ross 2005). Another hypothesis holds that the Papuans in the Lesser Sundas descend from arrivals 20,000 BP (Summerhayes 2007). While this possibility cannot be excluded, the level of lexical and grammatical similarity in the AP family does not support an age of more than several millennia, and the reconstructed vocabulary of proto-AP appears to contain Austronesian loan words (e.g., 'betel nut', Holton et. al. 2012). Ancient Austronesian loans found across the AP family following regular sound changes suggest that the AP family split up after being in contact with the Austronesian languages in the area, which would give it a maximum age of ~3,000 years.
Resolving this issue requires independent evidence dating proto-AP relative to Austronesian – which requires detailed information on the linguistic and socio-cultural history of population groups in the LPA region and their interactions. This project will seek to provide such information.
(1) 'Austronesian' is used here as shorthand for the subgroup of Malayo-Polynesian languages spoken in the Lesser Sundas, steering clear from the debate about the internal structure of the MP subgroup (Blust 1993b, Donohue and Grimes 2008, Blust 2009b). 'Papuan' conventionally refers to non-Austronesian languages spoken in New Guinea or its vicinity. Unlike 'Austronesian', 'Papuan' refers to a cluster of unrelated language families.

Continued from Prologue.
The "Send 'Burque to the Bay" reading was sandwiched between daylong sessions at the Ventana Institute's pilot workshop, "First Being Then Doing," at the Academy for the Love of Learning in Santa Fe. The purpose of the Institute is to build the capacity of organizations to "learn, evolve and transform."
I must confess that I had no idea what the workshop was about when I walked into the room and took my place in the circle. I had worked closely with visual artist and Academy faculty member Chrissie Orr on El Otro Lado, the art and storytelling program she developed as a way for individuals and communities to engage the creative process in addressing issues of migration and sense of place. When Chrissie and Ventana Manager Patrick Anderson invited me, I said yes because they are good people doing good work and because I needed and wanted an opportunity to be a learner, a student, rather than a teacher.
"First Being Then Doing" went deep. Saturday, as I said goodbye to the group in order to make the reading on time, facilitator James Bampfield said, "Be careful driving home. This work puts you in an altered state."
I reached that altered state by, among other activities, falling backward from a table top into the waiting arms of eight other participants. They stood in two facing lines, four abreast, each person with crossed forearms, holding the wrists of the person directly across from her.
As a workshop facilitator, teacher and trainer, I have guided writers, artists, students, AmericCorps volunteers, board members, and all sorts of other folks through a battery of trust-building exercises. As a student council member all through high school, a member of the Catholic Student Association in college, and a Jesuit Volunteer immediately after college, I did trust walks in which one person led another, who was blindfolded, along an unfamiliar path. After a few minutes, the partners switched places. When it was all done, we wrote in our journals and talked in a circle about what it was like having to rely on someone else. I have done silent retreats, made a group mobile with two sheets of construction paper, three sticks and a ball of string, and played Barnga to learn that different cultures play by different rules. But the one thing I had always managed to avoid was the trust fall.
My leap off the table was no ordinary trust fall, the kind used in team building to help people who might have different styles and beliefs work well together. Of course, I had to trust that the people standing behind me would catch me. But what mattered more was the thing I was leaving on the table. This fall was all about release, all about letting go of a core belief that stops me from being my most authentic self.
My core belief?
Nothing will ever be good enough.
Next week: Nothing Will Ever Be Good Enough, Part II: The Fall

Blaze the DogThe day Mary Lou buried her husband, she came
home to find his old dog, Blaze, lethargic and despondent. The white blaze on his head was still bright, but his eyes were
dark and dull. He wagged only the white tip of his tail, but did not get up to greet her."He knows," she
thought, "and he's grieving, the poor thing." Then she turned her attention to her children. The next day,
Blaze died. It saddened Mary Lou to lose him, but she wasn't surprised. Blaze had been her husband's dog.
Maybe Blaze had come into their lives to escort him through Bill's years-long battle with the advanced complications
of diabetes. It had not been an easy death. Bill fought many infections, repeated hospitalizations, open ulcers, an amputation,
growing blindness, and confusion along the way. Then their home became hospice for many months. Through it all, Blaze was
by Bill's side.When they first chose the shepherd mix puppy at the Humane Society, they predicted he was going
to be a huge, intelligent dog. However, they could not have predicted what else their lives together might bring. Blaze
was a gift to their two children, but he rapidly attached to Bill. Bill taught him the names of a dozen toys. Bill taught
Blaze to bring the correct toy when he named it. When he told Blaze to put his toys away, he dutifully carried each back to
his bed near the kitchen table. When Bill got sick, Blaze began to monitor Bill's health. After an extended
hospitalization to combat a leg infection, Bill came home to let his leg wound heal. Blaze was careful of the leg
when the two played tug of war, Mary Lou noticed. No longer would Blaze lean against it. Mary Lou was touched.Many
days later, she noticed Blaze delicately sniffing Bill's leg. He seemed to be aware of something not yet visible to
her eye as she changed Bill's dressings. Near the bone of Bill's leg, the infection had recurred. Mary
Lou speculated that Blaze's acute nose had picked up the change long before even the doctor could have known. In coming
months, Blaze served as an early warning system for the repeated infections that eventually forced the leg's amputation.
When Bill became bedridden, Mary Lou was overwhelmed with all the responsibilities of motherhood, a full time job
and another full time job ministering to the many needs of her dieing spouse. Blaze sensed her distress, and offered comfort.
He began to shadow Mary Lou. When she cooked, he lay down behind her heels. When she took out the trash, he walked her to
the curb. His very presence was offered as comfort.After that, Blaze returned to Bill's side many times each
day, but Mary Lou concluded that Blaze now guarded her as well. He followed her everywhere and displayed a fierce face to
strangers. Once introduced, Blaze was his friendly self, but no uninvited stranger would ever cross the family's threshold.
Mary Lou wondered how Blaze had sensed her emotions. They weren't like an infection he could smell.When Mary
Lou's ninety-year-old mother with Alzheimer's came for a visit. She accompanied them on a short vacation to their
lake house. When Bill was comfortably in bed, Mary Lou turned her attention to cleaning and cooking. Her mother wandered down
near the lake. Mary Lou saw her leave the house, and stepped outside to keep an eye on her. To her amazement, she saw Blaze
walking beside the frail woman. Blaze usually ran off to harass the cattle on a neighbor's farm any time he got out.
As they approached the lake, Blaze stepped ahead of her and came to a stop. The woman then settled on a bench by the
lake and Blaze lay down beside her. Over the next few days, Mary Lou watched Blaze decide again and again where he was needed
most. Sometimes he sat with Bill. Sometimes he padded slowly along with Mary Lou's wandering mother. Sometimes he followed
Mary Lou on repeated trips to load the car for the trip back home. When at last Mary Lou settled into bed that night, Blaze
lay down on the floor by her side. The dog was a Godsend in those days.When Blaze was adopted, the couple chose a
shepherd mix for their kids. They expected a playpal for their children. A lifetime proved they got a spiritual family guardian
throughout the seasons of their lives. When at last Bill died, Blaze left to accompany Bill's spirit, Mary Lou decided.The
gifts and the intuition her companion animal sustain her spirits to this day.

text: Are you an avid reader? Don't know what to do with a book after you finish it? Anthony Vitale has the answer. Many of our clients are avid readers but don't really want to keep books when they are finished with them. Some donate them to friends and family, and others have books that just keep piling up. A lot of our clients read while they are having their hair styled. So we decided to ask them to bring books that they have finished reading into the salon so that they could be shared with other clients. That's how our Book Club started. All you have to do is drop off a book in the front area of the salon and pick up another one in exchange. When you are finished with the book, bring it back the next time you have an appointment and pick up another.

Retail Health Clinics Drive Innovation into Primary Care Practices
A myriad of patient dissatisfaction issues stemming from antiquated approaches to primary care access are resulting in the establishment of retail health clinics (RHCs) throughout the country. RHCs are usually located within retail stores or standalone pharmacies and are staffed by nurse practitioners (NPs). They offer treatment for colds, coughs, skin rashes, and ear infections along with offering preventive care and physicals. As disruptive innovations, or innovations that offer services to ignored markets, these clinics are siphoning patient care visits away from primary care physicians because of their attention to quick access, affordable prices, and consumer- friendly approaches.

Our love for this body style started with Grandpa's purchase of a brand new 1972 Chevrolet pickup truck that he needed for the farm. Grandpa's truck is the drawing that you see on all of our literature, and on our home web page. Although Grandpa is now gone, we still have his pickup and all the wonderful memories that go with it.
Turning our passion for these wonderful trucks into a business was an accident. We bought one of these old pickups and placed an ad in our local newspaper to part it out. We were overwhelmed with the amount of calls that our small ad created. Before we realized what was happening, we were developing a base of repeat customers. Not only were our new friends requesting used parts; they were also asking us if we could get them new parts! It wasn't long before we were shipping parts all over the United States, and meeting a lot of friends nationwide.
Today, we have a completely stocked showroom located just outside of Kansas City, Missouri. Please drop by to browse at your leisure, and meet new friends with a common interest in 1967-72 Chevy/GMC trucks. If you cannot come by our showroom, you might meet us at one of the many swap meets we attend every year! If you need parts shipped to you, most orders are shipped out the same day you place the order.
Our goal is to continue supporting our current customers, and to earn your trust as a new customer and friend.

Anyone ever had there amazon seller account put under 30 day review, I only hear bad things about this?
they say this is because my over 700 sales on there does not equate to my feedback of only 132 ratings...
I cannot force people to leave feedback, and I can keep requesting but its rude to keep asking? so now they keep my funds that hold the business together, but they say in the mean time I may keep selling and posting items? how do they expect a business to keep replenishing its stocks?
