Columbus Chief Financial Officer Milton Rawle, standing, appears before the city council Tuesday evening at the Muncipal Complex. The council suspended Rawle for 16 working days, without pay, for failing to provide city officials a clear picture of the city's financial status in a timely manner.

December 5, 2018 10:47:39 AM
Columbus Chief Financial Officer Milton Rawle has been suspended for 16 working days, without pay, for failing to comply with job performance standards.
City councilmen voted 5-1 Tuesday evening to suspend Rawle. It came two weeks after he surprised them with a report showing the city had operated at an $881,000 deficit in Fiscal Year 2018, which ended Sept. 30. The council in its Nov. 20 meeting amended that year's budget to reflect the deficit -- created by a roughly $467,000 revenue shortage and more than $413,000 in excess expenditures.
A source familiar with the situation, who asked not to be named, said councilmen criticized Rawle for not being forthcoming with information about the city's financial standing sooner, especially when the council approved a Fiscal Year 2019 budget in September based on what they believed to be a balanced 2018 budget.
Rawle presents monthly financial statements to the mayor and council, and councilmen approve a claims docket -- a list of city expenditures -- at each of their bi-monthly meetings. Still, several councilmen claim those documents didn't give a clear picture of the city's cash flow.
The 16-working-day suspension will equate to four calendar weeks, since city administration operates on a four-day work week.
As executive sessions are not held in public, the public record for which councilman opposed Rawle's suspension will not be available for at least 30 days.
Rawle declined to comment after the meeting, as did his immediate supervisor, Mayor Robert Smith.
However, in an interview with The Dispatch last week, Rawle indicated the year-end deficit was somewhat of a surprise to him, too.
He said the city entered August showing a surplus that turned to a steep deficit in the last six weeks of the fiscal year -- during which time city councilmen were considering the FY 2019 budget.
While Rawle did suggest the council raise the property tax millage for general operations to offset future expenses -- which it did not -- he failed to indicate the 2018 budget had slipped into the red until two months after the new budget was approved.
Instead of trying to revamp the 2019 budget before it was approved, Rawle said he decided to take a "wait-and-see" approach.
"A lot of people see that big deficit number, but what they don't realize is if a couple of things go the other way, the number is a lot lower," Rawle said. "I took the attitude of looking in January or February -- when we had a clearer picture of how (2019) was going -- and see if the new budget needed amending."
On the revenue side, city sales and property tax collections lagged behind budgeted projections. Also, Columbus didn't receive $200,000 it thought it would receive from Lowndes County for its parks department as part of an agreement the two entities made when the Columbus-Lowndes Recreation Authority split into separate parks departments in October 2017.
Expense-wise, the city police, fire and public works departments exceeded their budgets by roughly $475,000 combined. Most of that came from excess overtime, Rawle reported.
The deficit dropped the city's cash on-hand -- which includes a cash balance in its general fund accrued from previous years' surpluses and a $900,000 dedicated reserve fund -- to about $2.3 million.
Last week, Rawle defended his budgeting practices to The Dispatch.
"It's a crap shoot because there's no way you can know exactly what's going to happen," he said. "It's not an exact science. You set the budget, and you hope. ... The good news is it's a new fiscal year, and we have time to make adjustments as necessary."
Four councilmen -- including Ward 2's Joseph Mickens, Ward 3's Charlie Box, Ward 5's Stephen Jones and Ward 6's Bill Gavin -- have confirmed to The Dispatch those adjustments will include immediate spending freezes of some kind. All four mentioned city travel, while some also mentioned hiring freezes and curtailing departmental overtime.

New Music Makers (NMM) is an integral part of Red Note Ensemble's mission to create equality of opportunity for all to engage with innovative and experimental new music-making at the highest levels of excellence. It functions with the belief that music pupils are not the composers of the future; they are composers now and addresses two key issues – 1) how to inspire and support composing/inventing with young people in schools and 2) how a professional ensemble working in partnership with a school can create a genuine, practical legacy, supporting a school to take the work forward independently.
The project, working with Nat 5 – Advanced Higher Music pupils and their teachers, is a series of workshops that introduce pupils to composing, through our 10-minute challenge, then develops their compositions before they are performed and recorded informally for their exam portfolios. The aim is that by the end of the project, the school team will have been supported and equipped with the tools to re-stage the project themselves in future; and that in families/friends who attend the informal performances, we begin to reach new audiences for new music.
How did the project come about?
Many high school teachers will readily identify that delivering the composing element of the curriculum is the area in which they feel least confident. Many will resort to teaching quite formulaic processes which will deliver work suitable to gain the necessary pass mark for the exam; but leave less room for pupils to genuinely explore and find their own creative voice. It's a tricky balance.
In September 2013 we were invited by the city of Glasgow to undertake schools' workshops in the manner of our long-running emerging-composer-development series Noisy Nights.
For the schools' version we partnered with King's Park Secondary School in Glasgow – a very ordinary high school, working with students who were taking their Higher Music exams in the following spring. The key element which we introduced to the school workshops was a version of the 10-minute Composing Challenge. This is something that we started at the adult Noisy Nights and has proved hugely popular. Essentially, it involves handing out music manuscript paper to members of the audience in the interval and asking whoever wants to, to write a piece for the ensemble in 10 minutes. In the adult version a selection are then performed at the beginning of the second half. Typically, there are upwards of 30 submissions to each adult Noisy Nightproject, and many people have had their very first compositions performed in this way.
The initial schools project went very well. All of the resulting pieces were played at a public recital in Glasgow City Halls, and two were performed live on Radio Scotland. There was a great deal of interest from government and national education bodies. From here, a process of consultation, collaboration, and practice led to the project in the form we have it today.
What made this project special?
NMM has two fundamental principles at its heart. One – the belief that young people in school are not the 'composers of the future' – they are composers now. Maybe less experienced and still exploring how to use different sound sources and communicate their intentions, but still composers; and Red Note takes very seriously its remit to support the creative development of all people making new music. Two – that a project should do more than just deliver in the moment; it needs to leave a genuine, tangible legacy. By running the 'tandem' method of project delivery, school music teachers are genuinely supported to develop the confidence to re-stage the project themselves.
What other projects do you have on the go at the moment?
Red Note continues to extend the reach of the NMM project across new local authorities. In addition, we are developing a longer-term partnership with Oakwood Primary School in Easterhouse (an area living with multiple deprivations), with the aim of properly embedding ourselves and our music in the local community, and supporting the growth of creating music-making in the school. The next strand of that project will involve each class in the school with creating a songbook, aided and abetted by composer Brian Irvine.
We are beginning to roll out a 'bottom line' commitment to our AEP work which will see every Red Note performance project have at least one session of outreach work (or some form) attached to it – we believe we are the first ensemble in Scotland (and possibly the UK) to embed the two strands of our work so inextricably.
We continue to develop our relationship with Artlink and Cherry Road resource centre, Red Note's upcoming Spring tour will involve AEP sessions in the community of each venue and we have plans to embed our AEP work so deeply in our performance programme that one will inform the other in terms of where we play, to whom and how so watch this space!
Who are the up and coming Scottish composers to keep an eye on?
There was a wee guy in Primary one at Lochend School in Easterhouse who impressed us a lot, and there are some super young composers coming out of Glasgow Uni, Edinburgh Uni, Aberdeen and RCS.
What would your ideal project be? The dream project (with a dream budget!)…
This is tricky – the longer I think about it, the more bells and whistles get added. This had better be a big budget! A total town takeover - Red Note (plus students of the Red Note Advanced Academy) takes over a whole town. And equally, the whole town takes over Red Note. For at least three years, so there's time to get to know each other. Work alongside – and learn from - musician of all genres and none. There'd be side-by-side opportunities, composing with/for/by everyone age 0+, the chance to get messy with new sounds I the way we all used to get messy with paint when we were two years old. There'd be inspiration for making new music from science, other art forms, and the local environment; and responses to new music using all of these. There'd be making music with and for people who are too often excluded from mainstream culture (whatever that is); the very young, the very old, people with disabilities, new Scots, people who feel their face doesn't fit. For people who love new music and people who loathe it. And a mass-engagement Red Note/community performance to finish. This would involve scorchingly exciting and entrancingly beautiful new music. And also Red Note musicians alongside impossible numbers of people from the local community, plus…outdoor lighting rigs, huge community-made puppets, fireworks, screens (because there'd be local film-making involved). And there'd have to be a circus big top in there somewhere too. (No reason really, I just really like a big top). And we'd involve people from other communities across Scotland via video link-ups which actually work and have no latency issues. And when it was time for us to move on, the Red Note Advanced Academy would be able to stay on and continue the collaborations really long term. And then we'd make it an exchange programme and take Red Note and our community collaborators maybe over to the continent to share/exchange new music with other communities… And…and… (How's that dream budget looking…?)

the rest of the story
I am in love with Mexican medicine.
And, because it is love, not all of my affections are rational. But this one is.
I forgot to tell you about the best part of my dental visit to Dr. Pimienta on Friday (moving to mexico -- fixing the teeth). After he had cemented my old tooth into my Cumberland Gap, I asked him if I should avoid eating anything hard with that tooth.
After all, I am a son of the north. I am accustomed to hearing the usual medical recitation of "dont's" that any Pentecostal would admire. Don't eat anything hard. Nothing hot. Nothing cold. Nothing chewy. Avoid wearing blue with brown. Never withdraw funds early from an IRA.
You have all heard the drill. A person dons a white coat and starts believing he is my mother.
So, I was nonplussed when Dr. Pimienta started the list. Nothing hard. Chew only on the left side.
He then broke out in a smile. "Do you really want a list of things you cannot do? Why not just enjoy life? If it falls out, we can put it back in."
And there it is in a nutshell. The cultural difference between Up North and Mexico.
I am not certain when it happened, but some time between the 1950s (when life seemed to be a parade of wonders) and the 1990s, northern culture decided to set up housekeeping on Neurotic Lane -- where no fear or slight goes unnoticed. If you have ever sat next to the formerly fat woman at a dinner party who now wears a size 1, exercises every other half hour, and can recite her "numbers" faster than the names of her children, you know exactly what I mean.
Northerners have created their own "don't" society. Peanuts. Filet mignon. Pâté de foie gras. Veal. President Grant. What were once the center of a good life are now signs of barbarity.
Not here. If you want veal, you can have your fill until you run out of pesos. If you want music, crank it up full. If you are concerned about your weight, order another taco and forget about it. No one is going to chide you.
Mexico has its drawbacks. But medical care and a practical view of life are not amongst them.
And I love it. Just make certain the "numbers"-citing dinner party guest stays on the north side of the Rio Bravo.

I did some analysis so as to be able to reply these questions. After reading several lists of the traits of an educated person—together with Harvard and Princeton College's lists -I came up with the a listing of the 50 characteristics of an educated particular person. Provisional Degree I Certificates may be successively reissued upon satisfactory completion of not lower than six (6) semester hours of credit score towards commonplace certification including the basic Commerce and Industrial Education courses throughout the one yr time period of validity. Credit are to be chosen from these on the applicants Plan of Examine and are to be earned via courses taken; credit score by examination for superior standing, whereas acceptable for advancing towards the candidates degree, don't meet the standard for renewing a Certificate. A request by the using superintendent, a advice from the State Program Administrator, and an official transcript from the establishment of upper education with which the applicant has filed a plan of examine, are required.
As a heavy" manufacturing industry, the metallurgical industry is concerned with refining, alloying and fabrication of metals. Of these, the iron and steel industry is the most important, since many tasks require a number of thousand tons of iron and metal as uncooked materials. Other metallurgical industries that are prominent in manufacturing embody people who smelt, refine and course of metals excluding iron.
Forty-5 years later, many of the polluting companies no longer exist. The mills along the river, manufactured from picturesque, red brick, have been largely turned into housing and office area that has been the foundation of a newly vibrant neighborhood whose economy is predicated on companies, info and entrepreneurial actions. The cleanup compelled infrastructure to be turned to its greatest and highest use. This transformation was the byproduct of the river's remediation. This is an example of how we can flip waste into useful merchandise. On this case the product was a re-born river group.
Others require college students to already have a bachelor's diploma in a subject area, and certification and licensure courses are supplied by way of numerous distance education methodologies. As well as, some instructor teams, such because the American Federation of Academics (2000), have voiced issues about college students being provided distance education as the one approach to obtain a degree. They advocate close, personal interplay, even in distance courses.
The constructive effects of this course of are clear. Firstly, the stream of funding rapidly transferring round as a result of individuals now understand each other each well and that's simpler for them to work together. At the similar time, they become extra tolerant of basic differences in belief, customs and even the nationwide traits which encourage the worldwide cooperation. On a world scale, the outdated prospects are steadily changing into erased while individuals now are closer in entertainment decisions, science and environmental safety.


text: "The Independent Amiga Rejuvenation Survey" IARS? The Amiga Community is known for for its fanatic dedication to the Amiga platform, and that has led to several quarrels with PC and Mac users over the years. Our dedication has maybe been strengthened by the fact that the Amiga has never gotten any real chance to prove its advantages over the major platforms, perhaps mostly due to mismanagement by its holders. The last years has been an endless waiting for answers. Who owns the Amiga?, who will own the Amiga?, what will become of the Amiga? etc. This has, to say the least, been very frustrating for those of us who strongly believe that there still is a future and room on the market for our beloved Amiga. However, one side effect of the waiting is that tons of ideas have evolved in the minds of the Amiga Community, a community which indeed is rather superior in its technological skills compared to the PC- and Mac-users. The vast number of high quality shareware programs on the Aminet proves this fact. The problem is, as always, to make the manufacturers/developers of Amiga hardware and software listen to the opinions and ideas of the Amiga Community, or rather benefit from them. One major reason may be the fact that the Amiga Community is rather disorganized, no common views have ever been presented. Of course one can't expect that everyone should agree upon a certain topic, but it would indeed help our cause and put a lot more wieght behind out arguments if we could at least be rather agree upon some major topics. I strongly believe that if the highly skilled and devoted Amiga-users around the world could agree upon a common document regarding the rejuvenation of the Amiga, we will make an impact. The Independent Amiga Rejuvenation Survey (IARS) is meant to serve as the basis of such a common document. In addition to this it will also serve as a constant receiver and resource of ideas from the Amiga Community. It must be emphasized that this survey is not in any way meant to be anti-VIScorp or anti-anyoneelse for that matter, it only meant to be pro-Amigan. The result of the survey could in fact indeed be pro-VIScorp in the sense that we're just trying to be a development resource. This is how it will be done: 1. Initially I will receive documents (maybe even images, html documents are welcome) - by e-mail - where you express your views and ideas concerning the future of the Amiga. Topics could for instance be: The hardware specifications (CPU, what kind of bus, expandability etc.) The casing (pictures are welcome) The OS (Libs, Devs, CLI, GUI etc.) Internet (TCP, Software etc.) Software (Bundles, killer apps etc.) Marketing (Advertising, strategy etc.) Education (Selling to schools, programming courses etc.) Programming (Bundles, preferred languages etc.) etc. I would also like to have your views upon: What was it that initially made the Amiga successful? Whas it that it inspired a new generation of programmers? Whas it the hardware? Whas it....? You tell me. What are the benefits of Windows and MacOS, apart from the obvious ones (availability, dominance etc.), i.e what's good about them? What should we copy? Is it important that this future computer everyone's raving about really is an Amiga, i.e do we care whether it's called Amiga or not? ...and anything else that comes to mind. 2. After the deadline (10 dec 1996) the documents will be compiled into one, where no views or opinions are left out. However, I will of course shorten it a bit, maybe using sentences like "The motivations for using the PowerPC were:..........,........" . (Mails received after the deadline are not neglected, the ideas and documents may still be included in the final document, however that may not serve as basis for the survey questions.) 3. The compiled document will then be mailed to every contributor, and of course it will also be available on this web-page. Every contributor's document will also be available as such, if nothing else is specified by you. 4. Based upon the document, a form-based survey will be presented here, were everyone who's interested in the future of the Amiga should participate. Every question in the survey will have reference links to descriptive pages so that you can really make up your mind, and maybe even learn something along the way. 5. The results of the survey will then be compiled into the final document, project name: "The Independent Amiga Rejuvenation White Book", which will not only be released here on this page, but also available in printed form. This printed document will be sent to VIScorp, Phase5, PIOS, Soft-Logik, Almathera etc.. You will of course have the possibility to mail your opinions regarding the final document before its printed. The web-version of the document will also contain full versions of the submitted documents, be it pure text documents or html-documents. The future Hopefully, the page may serve as a constant collection of the ideas that the Amiga Community come up with, i.e it will be constantly updated, even after the first publication of the document. In conjunction with e.g chat possibilities this could be the ultimate Amiga Forum. Maybe this kind of user survey could be used even after a successful Amiga relaunch, and would then serve as the users instrument to influence the further development of the Amiga platform. It would not neccesarily be administered by me, the important thing is that we keep trying to influece the future of the Amiga. Start mailing! Deadline for the survey basing documents is the 10th of December, 1996.. However, submissions after this date are just as welcome. Here's the address: firstname.lastname@example.com Gunnar Liljas, 1996.

Can We Bring Back the Clark Drive-In? Please?
As I blog this, the sun is shining and the weather is perfect. Makes me think of summer. I ran into one of my old friends from my hometown of Pittsfield the other day and we got on the subject of the Clark Outdoor Theater just outside of Summer Hill, Illinois.
Now you may never have been to an outdoor theater but spring and summer are coming and this would be the perfect time of year to go watch a movie outdoors. I hope some day that we can go back to the "Clark" and relive some of the old time memories where a soda was five cents and a hot dog was 10 cents. It will never happen but I do know that the man who checks on things at the drive-in says he would love to bring it back. And he says all we need is money.
Maybe some day that will happen and we can go back to the old days at least once more.

Warning! Hoarding is encouraged in this post. If your one of those "capsule wardrobe" kind of people, you will proberly break out into a nervous sweat reading this…However if like me, you love to keep things till you have no room left and are forced to clear out, than we can have a circle of happiness together! Hoarders Unite!
Ask yourself this question….
If you keep an item of clothing for long enough, does it come back in fashion?
I think yes…eventually….sometimes. I'm still waiting for chicks to start walking around in full on corseted dresses like the 1800's but probably not in this lifetime right….or wrong..who knows, because "fashion" right!
So my point is, do you keep every item of clothing you own or not?
I have compiled a list of pros and cons for you, and this time instead of telling you what to do, I'm going to let you all make your own mind up, because you don't need some chick from Australia telling you to throw out your favourite jumper or keep every item of clothing you've owned since you were 15!
To keep or not to keep…that is the question…
And before we ponder it together, check out this cute outfit made up of items I've hoarded or intend to hoard for years myself.
- Most items come back in fashion again eventually.
- You will always be able to change your style at a moments notice. Lots of clothes, lots of options!
- Who cares about "fashion" anyway, if you still like it, you should still wear it.
- You can repurpose old things and make them fashionable again. (Distress your old jeans or chuck a skirt over a baggy t-shirt)
- If it doesn't look good on you, see if anyone else you know might want it. Spread kindness! Although technically, this isn't "keeping".
- When new trends come out, you will most likely have something in your wardrobe to suit it.
- It's like an opshop, but in YOUR HOUSE! So exciting!
Cons of keeping.
- You will run out of room! Trust me!
- You may change size and never wear some of the things you own. Something that looked good on you as a size 10, might look horrible as a size 14, or vice versa.
- Clothing starts to look ratty after a while, it just doesn't last forever.
- Some items may have just been a passing phase and as you grow older they may never appeal to you again. (Can I get an amen!)
- You can always go thrifting to find "new" clothes that are on trend again.
- You will always be losing things in your closet because they are hiding behind all the other things!
- Someone else might love the things you don't anymore.
So what do you think?
Like I said, I will let you decide. You can most likely guess that I'm more of a keeper than a thrower but I'm really interested in what your decision is, so please comment down below on which side you think wins the war on clothing hoarding.
Till next time…
Go Forth and….
Clean out your closet….or don't….you decide!

text: I am thinking about having an HPWC installed at my office condo. The area is fine, but it has been subject to vandalism from time to time. For example, copper has been stolen from parking lot lights and the occasional kid spray painting their name on a wall. Since the expense of the charger and install will be all mine, I am wondering if anyone out there has come up with a good solution to protect the charger and charging cord from vandalism. The electrical room is with in feet of my parking stall. I have the ability to actually mount the HPWC inside the room and run the cord through the wall and into a secured box. (not even sure if that would be up to code) OR Mount the charger and cord in a secured box on the exterior of the electrical room with a reel (like you see at the self serve air at gas stations). I don't want to re create the wheel if someone has come up with a good solution. I'm all ears, so let me hear your suggestions. Thanks All.

Our report, Industrial Restructuring and the Continuing Impact on Youth Employment in Illinois was released Monday at a press conference at Innovation High School of Arts Integration. Below are our comments from the press conference:
Amidst the remnants of an "old economy" are the many marginalized workers who continue to feel the impacts of industrial restructuring and whose avenues into the "new economy" are either blocked or limited.
This report exposes conditions of chronic and concentrated joblessness remain entrenched, particularly for African Americans and that there are parts of Illinois that are worse than in Chicago and Cook County.
This report finds that:
In every age group and every geography, African Americans had the highest rates of joblessness and out of school and out work young people.
There are regions within Illinois where, since 1980, there is an increase in poverty and full time low wage employment and for young people throughout Illinois, the impacts of chronic joblessness remain a deep-rooted issue.
Middle class occupations are leaving medium-sized cities and rural areas as income inequalities grow.
Economies of mid-sized cities and rural areas are not incorporating young people into the workforce
This report also examined four counties in Illinois as case studies including Peoria, Tazewell, Kankakee, and Sangamon. In each of these counties, for the total population, poverty levels increased. In Peoria individuals below the poverty level went from 9.9% in 1980 to 17.6%; In Tazewell, it went from 5.5% to 8.0%; Kankakee showed an increase in poverty from 12.9% to 15.4%; and in Sangamon from 9% to 15%
In the ratios of household income to poverty, the data for these same counties, shows a shrinking middle class and an increasing gap between the lowest and highest incomes.
In our case study counties, there is an increase in the proportion of full time employees in low wage industries
For young people, 20-24, for the 2012-2016 five-year estimates, there are parts of Illinois that showed higher rates of joblessness than did Chicago or Cook County. Joblessness and Out of School and Out of Work rates were comparatively worse in areas of south, west, and Central Illinois compared to Cook County.
For Blacks, the out of school and out of work rates for 20 to 24-year old in Chicago, Cook County, the U.S. and Illinois as a whole improved substantially, though still an issue. However, there are parts of south, west and central Illinois that remain high and have out of school and out of work rates as high as 63.6%.
For Latinos in Chicago and Cook County, out of school and out of work rates increased, especially for females.
Teen employment in mid-sized cities and rural areas declined substantially.
In an economy which is susceptible to fluctuations, there are certain marginalized groups and geographic locations, that are particularly vulnerable to structural shifts in the economy, requiring, therefore, focused efforts to pursue policies that create opportunities for more people in more places to participate in the economy as it evolves.
We hope that this report is yet another clarion call for a broad-based attack on poverty and racial disparities in access to economic and educational opportunities.
Speaking at the press event hosted by Alternative Schools Network besides GCI Director, were Congressman Danny Davis, Democratic Congressional Candidate and Cook County Commissioner Jesus Garcia, along with Alma Anaya, Democratic Candidate for Cook County Commissioner. Also attending were directors of organizations that have been co-sponsors for these employment reports produced by GCI for Alternative Schools Network, including Chicago Area Project, Westside Health Authority, Instituto del Progreso Latino. There were also young people from Innovation High School.
We had the opportunity to answer questions from the press and used the opportunity to emphasize job training, small business incubators, and preparation for opportunities in advanced manufacturing. Given how creative young people are and given the character of the evolving economy, we also emphasized the importance of providing the conditions for innovation to spawn.
We also had a question about who we wanted the report to reach – who we wanted to take action. Our response: everybody – including policy makers at the federal, state and local levels and the corporate sector. We also emphasized that we thought it was important for more resources to be directed to those on the ground who, for years, have been working with young people to be connected, e.g. including helping them to get job ready. As one director said to us, "Help the folks that know what they are doing to connect people to jobs."

This next watercolour is by Gay Corran and is dated 1982.
This very flower, Allamander Cathartica, appears in her book Hawaii Flowers which is still available at the princely sum of £47.50 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hawaii-Flowers-Gay-Corran/dp/B0007ASFKU/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1376046790&sr=1-1
Here is an illustration from the book, which you must agree, pretty well matches the watercolour above.
It seems Gay grew up in Hawaii but I think she lives in Devon now. Quite a few of her illustrations appear on various web sites, particularly in the US.
We paid £2.99 for this and it should find a loving home with someone who likes flowers or Hawaii or both (apparently it is as common as a weed over there!). It failed to find a new home when we were In Bath but perhaps it will at our next sale in Chipping Norton
Yes folks, Chipping Norton on the 17th August. What will they make of us there?

text: Model and Semantics Team, First, for personal reasons, I must leave our telecon today (2/24) at 4:30PM Central Time. This is a situation I didn't foresee at our telecon on 2/21. Hopefully, we can cut to the chase on printer-state and printer-state-reasons at 4:00PM sharp Central Time so I can at least participate for 30 minutes. Now, here are my comments on printer-state and printer-state-reasons based on version 1.3.1 of the spec and Tom's document "comments on printer-state and printer-state-reasons attributes" dated 2/19/97 (printer-state-comments-tnh.pdf): 1. I agree with Tom's comments 1-6. 2. On comment 7, the attribute "printer-is-accepting-jobs" documented in the 1.3 spec already covers the condition described for "warning-not-accepting-jobs". 3. I agree with comment 8 in that each value for "printer-state-reasons" should have a "severityLevel", a "subunit" and a "reason". I believe "traingLevel" is overkill for IPP 1.0. 4. I agree with "processing/idle" value for printer-state. 5. In my opinion, a Printer should inform an IPP application of "printer-state-reason" for each output device connected to the Printer. Here are 2 examples. Example 1. A Printer supports 3 network-attached printers NETPRT1-3 connected to a print server using network ports NETPORT1-3 respectively. NETPRT1 has a paper jam, NETPRT2 has run out of paper in its input tray and NETPRT3 is idle. "printer-state" is "mixed". "printer-state-reasons" are "NETPORT1:critical-jammed, NETPORT2:critical-input-tray-empty, NETPORT3:idle". With this approach, an IPP application that sees a "printer-state" of "mixed" can read the state of each output device. The application may: display the state of each device to the end-user (who may be the operator); display the most critical error(s) that require action; make a decision to submit a job if at least one of the devices is "idle" or "processing"; or display "printer-state-as-text" (i.e. rely on the Printer's summary of its printer state). Example 2. PRT, IPP1 and IPP2 represent URLs for Printers. A Printer, PRT, uses 2 Printers IPP1-2 as its output devices. IPP1 and IPP2 each support multiple output devices. One of the devices in IPP1 has a paper jam and the other device is idle. One of the devices in IPP2 is idle and ther other is processing jobs. For PRT, "printer-state" is "mixed". For PRT, "printer-state-reasons" are "IPP1:mixed, IPP2:idle/processing". An application may: display the state reasons from PRT for IPP1-2 (i.e. "mixed" and "processing/idle"); display "printer-state-as-text" from PRT; or issue a Get-Attributes operation on IPP1 and process the printer-state and printer-state-reasons as described in Example 1. I believe that Example 1 is the typical fan-out scenario in the PC LAN world. The current model for IPP 1.0 requires an end-user to either submit a Job to a Printer to receive notifications of printer state events or to poll a Printer for its state using the Get-Attributes or Get-Jobs operation. I am working on a proposed extension to the model so end-users can receive real time printer events without polling or submitting jobs to a Printer. A person with whom I must discuss this proposal won't return to the office until 2/26 so look for a proposal on 2/27 in time for our telecon on 2/28. If I determine that this proposal is too complex for IPP 1.0, then I'll state so and we can table this matter until IPP 2.0. Have a super day, Keith

Globally, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is known to be the fourth most common mental disorder. This week, we take a look at treatment options for OCD in India
Shoaib Ismail (35), a Jeddah-based civil engineer has been an Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) patient for the last five years. Although he was diagnosed with the disorder in 2010, it was only in December 2014 that he started his treatment in Mumbai's Saifee Hospital. Only when his obsession for perfection started affecting his work and personal life, he was forced to seek medical help.
Shoaib's doctor said the delay in starting treatment led to an aggravation of the symptoms of OCD which flared up and manifested as gastric problems and other behavioural issues including self-doubt, anxiety and stress. So much so that he turned into an introvert.
Doctors say that many OCD patients like Shoaib do not think of getting treated for the disorder unless it starts affecting their normal life. While the exact prevalence rate of OCD is not known, psychiatrists say it is the fourth most common mental illness in the world, following phobias, substance abuse and major depression.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) in its 2001 mental report stated that OCD was found to be among the top 20 causes of illnessrelated disability. "OCD can interfere with a person's daily life. It can affect children and adults irrespective of gender, race and ethnicity. Although worrying and being plagued by doubts are common symptoms in OCD patients, the brain gets stuck on a particular thought or urge. The person finds it difficult to get out of it," said Dr Anju Dhawan, psychiatrist at AIIMS, Delhi. According to doctors, OCD is rising in individuals between the age group of 15 to 44.
Symptoms and diagnosis
The most common symptom of OCD is a person worrying constantly about catching a disease or spreading germs. They are also constantly obsessed about dirty hands and can wash their hands up to a hundred times a day. "A person with OCD suffers from aggressive impulses, fear of contamination and persistent thoughts of harming oneself or others. They are also constantly cross-checking or counting things, repeatedly cleaning objects around them or washing their hands very often," said Dr Harish Shetty, psychiatrist at Dr LH Hiranandani Hospital.
Doctors say an OCD patient is anxious and emotional and can display non- OCD symptoms such as extreme tension, excessive worry and depression. "OCD can have shortterm and long-term effects on the patient and his/her family. Therefore, if you suspect that someone has OCD, medical help should be sought," said Dr Shetty. (Check BOX for types of OCD) Diagnosis of OCD involves self-assessment followed by psychological evaluation by a trained psychiatrist.
Treating OCD
While OCD has no permanent cure, psychiatrists say that a combination of psychotherapy and medication can be effective to a large extent "In some cases, the OCD patient is treated via psychotherapy and in others with medication. Medical researchers say that a combination of psychotherapy and medication works better," said Dr Parul Tank, psychiatrist at Fortis Group of Hospitals.
In psychotherapy, the patient is gradually exposed to an object he/she fears or something he/she is obsessed about. "During psychotherapy sessions, the patient's obsession/fear is evaluated. He/she is then gradually inducted into a regimen of facing the fear/ obsession (systematic desensitisation and flooding). The patient is aided with relaxation techniques to cope with his/her anxiety too," said Dr Tank.
Psychotherapy also involves therapy sessions with the family. "A family's role in psychotherapy is crucial. We also have group sessions where experiences of other OCD people are shared," informed Dr Tank.
Dr Seema Hingoranny, a well-known psychologist in Mumbai said that anti-depressants are the first line of treatment tried by doctors to treat OCD patients. "There are certain drugs such as clomipramine, fluvoxamine, fluoxetine, paroxetine and sertraline that are used in OCD treatment," said Dr Hingoranny.
She also added that experimenting with several medications to treat OCD is not unusual. "Doctors do experiment with medicines to find out which one actually works better. In some cases, doctors combine anti-depressants with antipsychotic drugs for effective management of OCD symptoms," said Dr Hingoranny.
Doctors emphasise that medications should not be stopped without consulting a doctor first, as it may lead to a relapse of OCD symptoms. "Many OCD patients take the treatment lightly. As soon as the symptoms disappear, they stop medication. This often leads to a relapse. One should therefore consult the doctor for a gradual tapering of the medication," said Dr Tank.
OCD is also treated via a specific therapy approach called EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing). "It is known to be effective for many people with OCD. It is a complex therapeutic intervention that includes a number of elements common to a number of cognitive behavioural approaches," said Dr Hingoranny.
Treating OCD with surgery
Surgery is also an optional treatment for severe OCD. At Jaslok hospital, Mumbai, the neuro-surgery team is known to perform a deep brain stimulation procedure to treat psychiatric disorders like OCD and depression.
"Patients, who do not respond to traditional treatment, can consider surgery. We successfully performed DBS on an Australian citizen, who was suffering from severe depression. OCD can also be treated similarly if there is medical indication for the surgery," said Dr Paresh Doshi, neurosurgeon at Jaslok Hospital.
Elaborating on the surgery, Dr Doshi said that DBS targets a small brain structure known as Area 25, the "ringleader" for the brain circuits that control our moods. "The surgery involves implanting a small stimulating electrode into the Subgenual Cingulate Gyrus (SCG) area of the brain. The electrodes are powered by a battery-powered device that generates the stimulation," he said.
Dr Sanjay Mongia, neurosurgeon at Lilavati Hospital, Mumbai uses gamma knife surgery to treat OCD. "Gamma knife surgery is recognised worldwide. It is a non-invasive cerebral surgery," said Dr Mongia.
Why India…
India is popular for its internationally- trained psychiatrists who can diagnose and treat all types of psychiatric disorders, including OCD.
A large number of patients with mental disorders come to India as the centres here have exclusive multi-speciality care options for better management of the emotional and social well-being of the patient and his/her family.
Indian corporate hospitals also provide surgical treatment options for OCD patients. "Psycho-surgery is a subset of neuro-surgery. It is intended to modulate the performance of the brain. Neurosurgeons are now concentrating on treating disorders like OCD with modern neurosurgery like DBS and minimally invasive techniques like the gamma knife radiation," said Dr Mongia.
Common symptoms of OCD
- Compulsion – urge to frequently wash hands or shower.
- Overzealous cleaning – repeating cleaning routines until it feels 'perfect'.
- Checking – excessive double checking of locks, stoves, light switches etc.
- Organising – arranging, re-arranging or aligning things (according to one's level of perfection).
- Hoarding – collecting and hoarding useless junk.
- Trichotillomania — the recurrent urge to pull out scalp hair, eyelashes, eyebrows or other body hair.
- Body Dysmorphic Disorder — imagining exaggerated defects in one's physical appearance.
- Eating disorders – such as bulimia or anorexia nervosa.
- Substance Hypochondriasis — having an unfounded fear of suffering from a serious disease.

I don't remember when I've needed a drink this bad – I don't care what it is as long as it goes down easy and makes me sleep. Dad never drinks anything but Jim Beam – ugh – but there's got to be something in this liquor cabinet that hasn't been guzzled down by my brother. Let's see … some cheap port, chartreuse (gag me) Angostura bitters (that stuff lasts forever), peach schnapps, amaretto … oh, wait, there's a little bit of vodka left in this bottle – Jamie must have missed it stuck all the way in the back. Mom sure loved her vodka gimlets … what I'm mixing up is nowhere near as genteel …
To create a Disaster:
Combine in a rocks glass over ice
2 oz. vodka
1 oz. each peach brandy and amaretto
3 shakes Angostura bitters
Stir, then fill the glass the rest of the way with Mountain Dew

News from Nashville and Charlotte
The Executive Committee of the Southern Baptist Convention meets three times each year to transact business for the convention between annual meetings. This week the group met in Nashville, Tenn., in the middle of a winter storm that crippled the city. As you see in this story, they met the standards for a quorum and took significant actions. They approved motions to amend the ministry assignment of the North American Mission Board, to give a new name to one of our six seminaries and to approve electronic voting at the annual convention. Read this story and watch for a follow-up story on the meeting.
The Charlotte City Council is taking dangerous steps against moral decency. Most North Carolinians have heard about the council's plan to vote on a new "anti-discrimination" policy. The opposition is growing, but the council seems to be intent on doing the wrong thing.
On Thursday, Pastor Mark Harris is hosting a forum at First Baptist Church in Charlotte to help educate pastors about the dangers of "SOGI" ordinances. Pastors and other concerned leaders in or near Charlotte are encouraged to attend the forum at 10 a.m., Thurs., Feb. 19, at First Baptist Church Charlotte, 301 S. Davidson Street. Please RSVP at (704) 375-1446. Attendees will learn about the legal impact of the proposed non-discrimination ordinance for churches, businesses and citizens of Charlotte, and to learn what pastors and churches can do to stop it.
Watch for an editorial by Tami Fitzgerald that will be posted Wednesday on BRnow.org. She is an attorney and the executive director of the N.C. Values Coalition. Her insights will be very valuable to your understanding of the issue.
FINAL CALL: The 'One Story' conference is this Monday, February 23! I am excited to see how God will use this meeting to change lives for eternity!

The fundamental philosophy of UNIX, which Linux continues to follow, is to give the user many small and specialized commands, along with the plumbing necessary to connect these commands. By plumbing, I mean the way in which one command's output functions as a second command's input. Bash, the default shell in Linux, provides this plumbing in the form of I/O redirection and pipes. Bash also includes features such as the if statement, which runs commands only when a specific condition is true, and the for statement, which repeats commands a specified number of times. You can use these features of Bash when writing interpreted programs called shell scripts.
This chapter shows you how to write simple shell scripts: a collection of shell commands stored in a file. Shell scripts are used to automate various tasks. For example, when your Red Hat Linux boots, many shell scripts stored in various subdirectories in the /etc directory (for example, /etc/init.d) perform many initialization tasks.
When it comes to writing scripts, the Perl language is also popular among UNIX system administrators. Because you probably are the system administrator of your Linux system, this chapter also introduces you to Perl scripting.

Chapter 25 covers Tcl/Tk, another popular scripting language you can use to build applications with a graphical interface.

Here is my take on pad thai. I hardly make Asian food (…why not?? SO good), but I wanted to try the brown rice noodles and Trader Joe's Soyaki sauce I've had for a while. Of course, since I am on a roasted veggie kick, I HAD to incorporate a bunch! Full of veggies and protein, and that Soyaki sauce is ah. Maze. Ing.
Roasted Veggie Pad Thai with Chicken
Makes two servings.
1 large zucchini
1 red bell pepper
1 head of broccoli
1 cup sliced mushrooms
2 TB extra virgin olive oil
Garlic powder
Trader Joe's Soyaki Sauce (you can also use teriyaki and/or soy sauce)
Sriracha Sauce (optional….I like things SPICY!)
6 oz brown rice noodles, fettucine-style (or other long noodle pasta)
2 small cooked, shredded chicken breasts
1/2 red onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
Sea salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup broccoli sprouts
Cilantro for garnish (optional)
Set oven to 400°. Slice zucchini, pepper, and broccoli. Place these and mushrooms on a cookie sheet and drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, cracked black pepper, and sea salt. Roast for ten minutes, flip/stir, and roast for ten more. Perfect veggies, every time!
In a bowl, mix some Soyaki sauce in with the shredded chicken breasts. Sit aside to marinate in the sauce as you wait for the veggies and pasta to finish.
Cook pasta according to directions. Drain, rinse with cold water, and then put back into the pot you cooked it in, along with the shredded chicken and some more Soyaki sauce, just enough to coat. If you like sriracha (a Thai hot pepper sauce), add it now. A little goes a long way! Also mix in diced onions and minced garlic. Cook for two minutes.
Add in the roasted veggies. Stir for a minute or two to heat throughout. Stir in the sprouts, plate, and add cilantro for garnish, if you choose.

Turkey's Afrin Campaign Heightens Tensions With US
- Author: Jon Douglas Jan 26, 2018,
Jan 26, 2018, 1:44
President Tayyip Erdogan warned Wednesday that Turkey would expand its military offensive to the Syrian town of Manbij, where the Pentagon maintains Special Operations troops who are partnered with Kurdish forces that dominate the city.
Asked by Kurdish journalists about the Turkish operation in Afrin, Zakharova said Russia's position in this regard is clear and accurate.
United States President Donald Trump urged his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan to limit military operations in Syria's Afrin to avoid clashes with the US forces in the northern part of the country.
However, White House readout available at its website says "President Trump relayed concerns that escalating violence in Afrin, Syria, risks undercutting our shared goals in Syria".
Within a week after the announcement, Ankara launched an offensive in Syria's Kurdish enclave of Afrin code-named Olive Branch and aimed at eliminating terrorists in the region.
Turkey is targeting the YPG, a Kurdish militia, who control much of north east Syria.
"We carefully track those weapons that are provided to them, we ensure that they, to the maximum extent possible, don't fall into the wrong hands and we're continuing discussions with the Turks on this issue", Lieutenant General Kenneth McKenzie, joint staff director, told reporters.
Disagreements over the status and future of Syria's Kurds have strained relations between Ankara and Washington. The latter is designated as a terrorist group in Turkey, which has been fighting it for decades.

Meanwhile, al-Watan cited a Kurdish source in the YPG as saying that his group is undertaking the guerrilla warfare style in confronting the Turkish incursion, noting that "what we are losing in the morning due to the intensified shelling and airstrikes, we are restoring in the evening because the YPG knows the geography of the area there very well".
The US and Turkey are North Atlantic Treaty Organisation allies but they have diverging interests in the Syrian civil war.
A civilian holding a Turkish flag arrives on January 22 to encourage the troops at a Turkish Army staging area in the outskirts of the village of Sugedigi, Turkey, on the border with Syria.
A senior USA official said that as of Tuesday the Turks had not been ready to engage in detail on such a proposal.
The group said that 28 civilians, including eight children, were among those killed. Earlier this week, a Syrian refugee was killed by a similar strike. One military official said United States troops in the Manbij area had come under fire from Turkish-backed rebels "within the last week", returning fire in self-defense. Despite the Turkish claims, Islamic State fighters are not known to be in the areas Turkey is attacking.
Erdogan also reiterated Ankara's request from Washington to stop providing arms to the PYD/YPG terrorists in Syria.
Tillerson has been moving to de-escalate the situation and improve relations after the United States' announcement of a 30,000 strong border force with the Kurds upset its key North Atlantic Treaty Organisation ally.
The official also denied that Trump had "expressed concern about destructive and false rhetoric coming from Turkey", as mentioned in the White House readout, saying Trump instead stressed that open criticism of the USA in Ankara was raising concerns in Washington.

Design Optimization Engineer Ross Foulkes delivered Introduction to Design Optimization training via webinar to 14 South African partners as part of Franklin's training program. Representatives from Pragmaworld, SAMD and IPM were in attendance.
The training aims to help Franklin Fueling Systems' partners understand the concepts of design optimization, so that they can deliver the same reduction in the total cost of ownership that has made Franklin an industry leader.
The optimization process helps to reduce material costs and labor costs by making site layouts as efficient as possible. Additionally, this can reduce the amount of on-site labor which helps make installations safer.
In the example used during training, the optimization process resulted in significant savings:
• 36% decrease in pipe length
• 62% parts decrease in mid-pipe joins
• Approximately 14.5 hour savings in exposure on site
"I found this very interesting and informative, especially look forward to learning more about the new electrical solution that we will implement as soon as it is available." - Albert Ahlers of SAMD

The Black Death was one of the deadliest pandemics in human history, peaking in Europe between 1347 C.E. and 1351 C.E, reducing the population of Europe by nearly half, and resulting in widespread socio-economic and other changes. Medieval people referred to this catastrophe as the "Great Pestilence", "Great Plague?, or ?Great Mortality?. The term "Black Death" first appears in 1833, derived from a striking late-stage sign of the disease, in which the sufferer's skin would blacken due to sub epidermal hemorrhages.
Medieval Europe enjoyed centuries of comparative warmth when the temperatures remained higher than normal. This warm period ended by the close of the thirteenth century, and the drop in temperatures and heavy rainfall that accompanied this change resulted in cold, wet and harsher winters and reduced harvests, manifesting in the Great Famine that struck much of North-West Europe in 1315 C.E and lasted for seven years. Even without the famine, the lack of technology to clear new fields for harvest meant that wheat, oats, hay, and consequently livestock were all in continuous short supply. This food scarcity resulted in malnutrition and consequently wakened immunity, making the populace more susceptible to infections. The malnutrition and diseases reduced the productivity of workers, creating even more food shortage and a vicious cycle of depression. Kings such as Edward III of England (1327 C.E. to 1377 CE.) and Philip VI of France (1328 C.E. to 1350 C.E.) finding their revenues decline as a result of this depression raised the fines and rents of their tenants, resulting in an even more deterioration of the standards of living. To compound the miseries, a pestilence of unknown origin, identified as anthrax, targeted the animals of Europe, notably sheep and cattle by 1318 C.E., further reducing the food supply and income of the peasantry
[...] Impact on Religion The sick affected by the Black Death sought refuge in monasteries and this led to virtually the entire clergy succumbing to the disease. This resulted in a mass influx of hastily trained and inexperienced clergy members, many of whom knew little of the discipline and rigor of the veterans they replaced. The seeds of the later Reformation movements thus owe their germination to the devastation wrought about to the medieval monasteries by the Black Death. The Black Death led to the emergence of new religious groups such as the flagellants who advocated that the plague was God's wrath on account of the sins committed by mankind. [...]
[...] The woefully inadequate sanitation made medieval urban Europe so disease- ridden that the mortality rate was already high even before the advent of the Black Death and no city could maintain its population without a constant influx of immigrants from the countryside. In 1798 C.E. Thomas Malthus, through his essay ?Essay on the Principle of Population? propounded a theory that when humans reproduce greatly to the extent that they go beyond the limits of food supplies, some sort of "reckoning" was inevitable.

Toronto Sun crime reporter Chris Doucette believes that being a jack-of-all-trades is a must for today's journalists.
"Right from the very beginning I realized that it's important not to just learn to write but also to learn photography skills," he said. "I learned everything that I could learn," said Doucette during a speaking engagement Tuesday at Toronto's Centennial College.
Doucette returned to his alma mater to address a group of young journalists. Doucette, 38, who learned his trade at Centennial College, spoke to the class about getting his start in journalism and the changes the industry has gone through over the past few years.
During his tenure at the Sun, Doucette has witnessed firsthand the rise of the Internet and other communication technologies. Although he notes that some of the older staff resist technological advancements, Doucette believes that technology has changed journalism for the better. He claims that the Internet has brought parity, as small newspapers can now post news online as quickly as bigger, established papers.
"When I started out we still went to the library, we didn't go online," he said. "My job now includes writing for the web. I take pictures, I shoot video. When I get to the scene I can file updates to the web right away. And that's changed things. [News reporting] is competitive again."
Doucette stumbled into the world of journalism after returning to Toronto following a period in the armed forces. A high school dropout with a family to support, Doucette quit his job as a trucker and returned to school, enrolling himself in Centennial College's three year journalism program in 1999. Soon afterwards he was working as an intern at the Toronto Sun, where he was eventually hired as a full time staff reporter in 2004. For the past five years Doucette has been working at the police desk, spending a great deal of his time covering murders and gun violence.
"Probably of the homicides in the last five years – I figure we've had 70 homicides a year on average – I've probably worked on at least 25 to 30 of those each year," Doucette said.
While working on the crime beat, Doucette has learned to cope with tragedy and report on deadly shootings and accidents with care and respect. Interacting with families of murder victims can be difficult according to Doucette, but he believes that his military training has properly equipped him to relate to people in delicate situations. On the other hand, Doucette, a large man with earrings and tattoos, admits that some people may open up to him because they mistake him for a police officer.
"In a given week I probably deal with three or four families who have lost someone in some tragic way, like falling down an elevator or being hit by a car," Doucette said.
Although he acknowledges that covering crime can take an emotional toll, Doucette says he is satisfied because of his belief that he is ultimately performing a public service. Doucette ended his speech with a ringing endorsement for journalism: "It's better than being a truck driver."

The San Francisco 49ers were embarrassed in Week 7
Youth Marquise Goodwin jersey , losing 39-10 to the Los Angeles Rams in a turnover-fueled beatdown. The team turned the ball over four times, and with no takeaways of their own coupled with seven sacks by the Rams defense, this game was never close.C.J. Beathard struggled much of the day, finishing 15 of 27 for 170 yards. He threw a touchdown to George Kittle, but had two interceptions, lost a fumble, and almost lost a second one. He struggled to get on track most of the day, and the first half turnovers in particular were devastating. The Rams turned them into 17 points, although if you add in the punt block, you could say all of their first 22 points came as a result of turnovers.Naturally, there is a call by a lot of people for the team to make a change at the quarterback position. Nick Mullens is the backup, and has been working with Kyle Shanahan for the past two years. The team signed Tom Savage earlier this week, but released him to make room for promoting Tyvis Powell off the practice squad.On Sunday, Shanahan said he will not be making a change at the quarterback position. He said Beathard deserved blame for his performance in the game, but Shanahan also thinks blame can be spread to plenty of people for that performance. Shanahan acknowledged the turnover issues and the generally bad play, but would not lay it all on Beathard.When asked what is stopping the 49ers from considering a move to Mullens, Shanahan said, because CJs the best quarterback we have in our building.Beathard has been up and down through four starts. They had chances to beat the Los Angeles Chargers and Green Bay Packers, but turnovers crushed them against the Arizona Cardinals and Los Angeles Rams. The 49ers travel to face Arizona next Sunday, and well get to see if Beathard and the offense can bounce back http://www.49ersauthorizedshops.com/...-kittle-jersey , or if the turnover bug continues to bite them. It's a good thing Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes prefers takeout to dining in these days, because the first-year starter would be recognized in any restaurant in Kansas City.Not just because of his Mohawk, either.Mahomes is off to a record-setting start to the season, and he has the Chiefs at 2-0 heading into their home opener Sunday against San Francisco.And that has just about everyone buzzing, from busboys to restaurant owners, about the possibility of another AFC West title and some postseason success."I can only imagine it's going to be pretty interesting to be Patrick Mahomes around town," Chiefs center Mitch Morse said with a sly smile.Morse doesn't have as much trouble when he dines out, of course. Nor do the rest of the Chiefs' offensive linemen, even though they're a big reason Mahomes has had so much success.A group that returned largely intact from last season, when it helped Kareem Hunt win the NFL rushing title, has proven it can keep Mahomes clean as well.The line has allowed just two sacks despite going on the road to face the Chargers and Steelers, two fairly salty defenses, and that has translated into offensive numbers that rank near the top of the league.Most importantly? The Chiefs are averaging 40 points per game."I think jelling is a great word," Morse said. "It's four years for some of us together, and with offensive line continuity is the biggest thing. The more we play together helps."The Chiefs have certainly invested in their offensive line.Their first draft pick of the Andy Reid era was Eric Fisher, who was selected first overall in 2013 and has played well enough to sign a $63 million, six-year deal.Morse was a second-round pick in 2015, and right guard Laurent Duvernay-Tardif was a sixth-round flyer who panned out so well he also signed a long-term contract to the tune of $42.36 million over five years.Kansas City solidified the right tackle position by signing Mitchell Schwartz to a $33 million, five-year deal a couple of years ago, and shored up the only remaining spot on the offensive line when former first-round pick Cam Erving was acquired in a trade with the Cleveland Browns.He's played so well that the Chiefs signed him to a $15.75 million extension last offseason.It's easier to tie up money in the offensive line when the quarterback Earl Mitchell jersey , often the most expensive position on the roster, happens to be on a rookie deal.But it also shows how much value the Chiefs put in protecting Mahomes, and how much confidence they have in the group they've assembled."They've worked very hard at coming together and working," Reid said."We have a ton of things we can improve on. As defensive coordinators study and see these things, they will throw different wrinkles at you and you have to rise up every week."That's not a simple part of this. In this business it's not so much about what you did the week before, it's about what you do today."We have to keep answering these different challenges," Reid said. "We did OK last week, now we will prepare ourselves for this week."Indeed, the challenge presented by the Steelers was unique. Their defense tends to disguise blitz packages better than most, and that could have created problems for an inexperienced quarterback.But beyond keeping Mahomes upright, the offensive also was instrumental in helping him diagnose what the Steelers were doing. It was a true team effort in calling out the blitzes.Now the challenge is San Francisco, led by sack specialist DeForest Buckner."It's the same type of scheme that the Chargers ran and originated in Seattle. They have a lot of good players," Mahomes said."It's going to be a great challenge for us, especially being our first home game. We have to stay in process. Keep doing what we do well, keep getting better, fixing our mistakes and hopefully come out with the win."Notes: Safety Eric Berry (Achilles tendon) remained out of practice Thursday, making it unlikely he will make his season debut against San Francisco. He's been out since early in training camp. ... DT Chris Jones returned to practice after missing Wednesday's workout with a groin injury. ... FS Armani Watts was excused from practice for personal reasons.

What To Do If Your Phone Accidentally Gets Wet
At one time or another, you are bound to get your phone wet. It could be the sweat around your temple after talking under the heat for long, it could be due to a spilled cup of coffee on your desk, it could be that your phone fell into the toilet – the possibilities are many and diverse. But the only thing that matters when this happens is to save your phone from suffering permanent damaged. So we've put together a short simple guide of how you can go about doing that. Check it out.
Get it out of the water
In most cases, phones fall into the water, be it in the sink, toilet, bucket, etc. Whatever the case, get your phone out of the wet environment it's in. The longer it stays there – the more irrecoverable the damage. Every second counts here. So use your special powers to swoop in and get your phone out of there.
Take it apart
Once your phone is out of the water or wet environment, take it apart quickly and gently. Be careful not to yank on anything lest you break parts. Normally you should take out the back cover, then the battery, the SIM cards (where applicable), and then the memory card. Doing so allows you to get rid of any water/moisture that has seeped inside the phone. If your phone cannot be taken apart, simply proceed to the next step.
Wipe away all visible moisture
Use a dry cloth, preferably something highly absorbent such as cotton, to wipe away all the visible water. Start with the inner parts of the phone and then proceed to the battery, SIM card, memory card, and then the outer parts. This is the most recommended mode of approach due to the priority of the phone's components. If you're using an iPhone or any other type of phone that can't be dismantled, simply wipe the outer areas and proceed as explained below.
Use desiccants to extract internal moisture
In most cases, you're not going to be able to dry all the water on the phone no matter how well you wipe your device – not unless it only got a light amount of moisture on the surface level. In all other cases, your phone will still have moisture inside it, even if you can't see it. To extract that moisture, use desiccants such as silica gel. You can use any desiccants lying inside opened packaging around the house or you can buy some from stores. Put your phone in a bag full of desiccants and give it about 24hrs to dry. In the case of iPhones where the unit can't be taken apart, leave the phone to dry for longer (say 48-72 hrs).
Other ways to dry your phone
- Put the phone outdoors to dry but not under direct sunlight to avoid damage
- Improvise with uncooked rice (yes, rice!). Rice is a great desiccant, and one that you're bound to have lying around the house.
Take it to a phone repair specialist as soon as possible
If all else fails, take your phone to a certified repair specialist as a last result. At this point they may or may not be able to recover your unit. This will depend on how much water damage it suffered, how long it's been since then, and what you did after the incident.
Be sure to check our other blog post discussing what NOT to do if your phone has gotten wet.

I checked out a few stores today and it seems like everyone has Easter on clearance for 75% to 90% off! I was semi tempted on getting some plastic eggs for crafts. We have so many though so I don't think we really need anymore.
I still have about two shopping bags full of them in storage in Ohio. I also have about a trash bag full of them from when I bought them for my brothers kids Easter egg hunts.
So I am sure there will be plenty to have another Easter egg hunt next year and to decorate the house.
I did pick up a ton of candy at 90% off. It was a nice desert and snack for our family card game night. I think the chocolate helped break my sisters and my losing streak. We won in playing hand and foot tonight!
