Sewing a Mental Illness Recovery Banner
By Mark Ragins, M.D.
Many people are dissatisfied with our current mental health system, and yet, true change is rare. The combined forces of inertia, politics, reimbursement procedures, bureaucracy, liability fears, and hopelessness often seem too formidable to overcome. They can, however, be vanquished if we work under a banner of clearly articulated vision and values. Deinstitutionalization proved that. I believe that banner now should be passed on to recovery.
When I try to explain to others why I work as a psychiatrist with people with serious mental illnesses, I talk about recovery. I talk about people like John, who has recovered in the year and a half since I met him. John has manic–depressive illness with periods of severe psychosis and homelessness and a severe substance abuse disorder. He had repeatedly lost everything in life due to these conditions, but was ready to try again. He had just gotten out of a locked program after about a year and moved into a board and care. Since I've met him, John has stayed on medication, lithium and risperidone (except for an experiment we did together, trying to get him off risperidone). He has worked a strong substance abuse recovery program, going regularly to several meetings a week. He has a sponsor, and is now working step 6. With my assistance, John's conservatorship was dropped, and he moved in with his old girlfriend, also in recovery. He began working as a computer data-entry clerk for us part time, and within several months was doing so well that he felt limited by this job. So he returned to college and took computer classes, in which he earned all As. John now has a full-time job working with computers, making $2,500 a month. He is off Social Security. He is also engaged to be married. In my opinion, John is recovering.
Recovery versus cure.
We often confuse recovery with cure. People can recover. Illnesses can be cured (well, mostly only infections or broken bones, but that's another story). You can, however, recover without any effective treatment for your illness (e.g., recovering from a stroke or a heart attack). Take Christopher Reeve, for example. Before he passed away, he had recovered, even though his spinal cord was still broken.
It is also perfectly possible to recover without having an illness at all. You can recover from a serious divorce, a parent's death, being raped—all kinds of terrible things. We get such tunnel vision with our pervasive medical model and get so busy treating illnesses that we never focus on whether the person is being helped with their recovery. It may therefore be easier for us to conceptualize and define recovery for someone without an illness, like a friend recovering from a divorce.
My present conceptualization is that recovery has four components: (1) hope, or a positive vision for the future; (2) empowerment; (3) self-management; and (4) a meaningful role or niche in life.
Applying this conceptualization to my friend recovering from a divorce, first, I'd help him by trying to give him hope for the future. "Things will work out. You'll get over her; you'll find someone else. Plenty of women would want you." (I was touched when a woman recently told me her 5-year-old son had triggered her recovery from a divorce by saying, "It's all right, Mommy. You and me can make it without Daddy.") Second, I'd empower him by telling him, "You're a good guy. You've got a lot going for you. Plenty of women will want you. You just have to get out and meet them. I think you've really learned from this and grown from this experience." I'd support him doing things to change his emotions and his life. "Come on, you can hang out with me for a while. We can even go out together to meet women. I know someone you might like." If, months later, he's still relying on me to take him out, that's not recovery. That's being taken care of. So third, I'd tell him: "Hey man, you've got to start going out on your own. You can't rely on me for everything. I've seen you with women. You're OK; you can do it." Fourth, he'd have to find a role in life. "Being single is not that bad. You still get to see your kids, and they love you. You're doing well at work. Your life is OK." I would submit that these are all familiar components, because they reflect how we naturally view recovery when it's removed from the medical realm. I think we'd also all agree that if my friend achieved all four steps, he's recovered from his divorce.
Banner to promote change.
These same four components also apply to people recovering from severe mental illnesses. Unfortunately, when these steps are moved back to a medical realm, they begin sounding rather unscientific, difficult to assess, and certainly not reimbursable. Nonetheless, they form a solid value core by which to assess our own practice and techniques, our relationships and our outcomes, and even our program design and system structures. They can be woven together into an effective banner for promoting and evaluating changes in our mental health system.
When I look over many of the things I've written in the past several years, they fall into two categories: (1) papers trying to define and expand upon one of these components and (2) papers applying this recovery value set to a particular aspect of my work (e.g., substance abuse or family issues). The banner is gradually becoming clearer, with important pieces fitting together—often in surprisingly integrated ways.
This banner can be used to promote change in two ways. First, on a personal level, individual mental health workers and people with mental illnesses (and even administrators) can be exposed to stories about each of these components and about specific practices and relationships relevant to them. Often, a presentation structured in this way feels rejuvenating or even inspiring, since it touches on the feelings that led us into this work in the first place and that have kept us going since. Old dying embers can be relit. When I present using this approach, many people tell me I've given voice to the thoughts and feelings they've always had, but had neglected for a long time.
Second, this concept can be used on a program or administrative level to form mission statements, value statements, principles, and purposes for mental health services. Then we can discuss if what we're doing is serving these values or harming them. Some things may be a necessary evil, while others are good targets for efforts at change. One administrator told me that what he really liked about our program was how clearly he could see the application of our values to our practice. Value-driven reforms, especially when supported from above, can have real power.
According to a story about the formation of a village, when the task force on the issue was first created, members of the task force were advised not to just complain and criticize. Instead, they were advised to identify things they liked and things they wanted. "Tell me," the Lieutenant Governor said, "does anything work?" I think we are ready now to answer that recovery works, and explain what it is and how we can promote it. It can be a powerful positive force for change in a way that criticism and complaints never could be. It can be our banner. Let's sew it together.

Google announces an unusual stock split
The company's proposal effectively amounts to a 2-for-1 split, unveiled as quarterly profit and revenue climb higher.
By Scott Rubin, Benzinga Staff Writer
Google (GOOG) beat analyst estimates on income but slightly missed on revenue for its fiscal first quarter, and unveiled Thursday an unusual plan to split its stock to preserve its corporate governance.
In what amounts to a 2-for-1 stock split, Google said it will create a new class of stock, Class C, that won't have any voting power. Anyone who owns a share of Google's existing Class A or Class B stock will automatically receive a share of the new Class C. The new class of shares will trade under a different ticker symbol.
The setup is engineered to preserve the voting power of Google's founders.
The stock proposal was announced as Google reported a first-quarter profit of $2.89 billion, or $8.75 a share, from $1.8 billion, or $5.51 a share, a year earlier.
Excluding one-time charges and other items, Google's profit was $3.33 billion, or $10.08 per share, compared with $2.64 billion, or $8.08 per share, a year earlier. This easily beat Wall Street estimates of $9.65 per share.
Revenue for the quarter came in at $10.65 billion, a 24% increase over $8.58 billion a year earlier. After backing out traffic acquisition costs, revenue amounted $8.14 billion, just missing Wall Street expectations of $8.15 billion. Traffic acquisition costs rose to $2.51 billion from $2.04 billion a year earlier.
Investors didn't seem too troubled by the stock split. Google shares were initially up about 1% in after-hours trading, but fell back later to approach Thursday's close of $651.01.
Google said that its board had unanimously approved the stock split. The move will be up for a shareholder vote at the company's annual meeting in June, but since the founders already control the majority of voting power, it's virtually guaranteed to pass.
In a statement, Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin explained the reasoning behind the move:
These shares will be distributed via a stock dividend to all existing stockholders: the owner of each existing share will receive one new share of the non-voting stock, giving investors twice the number of shares they had before. It's effectively a two-for-one stock split -- something many of our investors have long asked us for. These non-voting shares will be available for corporate uses, like equity-based employee compensation, that might otherwise dilute our governance structure.
We recognize that some people, particularly those who opposed this structure at the start, won't support this change -- and we understand that other companies have been very successful with more traditional governance models. But after careful consideration with our board of directors, we have decided that maintaining this founder-led approach is in the best interests of Google, our shareholders and our users. Having the flexibility to use stock without diluting our structure will help ensure we are set up for success for decades to come.

Rangers: One of the true keys to the Rangers success last season was that they steered clear of losing streaks. Only once did the Blueshirts lose three games in a row without gaining at least a point through an overtime defeat, and that did not happen until Games 65-67 in early March. In their only other three-game skid all season---an 0-1-2 start in the season's first three games---the Rangers still managed to secure two points. So even though Brad Richards is correct in pointing out that this is not last year, there are still things to be learned from 2011-12, and the Blueshirts---currently 0-2-0 to start the 2013 campaign---most definitely want to slam the door shut on their current losing streak because that's what winning teams do, as the club proved in their 51-win, 109-point season a year ago.
Bruins: Chris Bourque, older brother of Rangers prospect Ryan Bourque and son of Hockey Hall of Famer Ryan Bourque, has played in over 450 games at the AHL level since turning pro in 2004-05, but has appeared in only 35 NHL games in that same span. However he may have found a home in Boston, where his father is a Bruins icon having played 21 seasons and accumulated five Norris Trophies as the NHL's best defenseman. Chris Bourque made the Bruins out of the abbreviated training camp this year and after leading the American Hockey League in scoring (27-66-93) a year ago. Perhaps the soon-to-be 27 year-old Bourque has finally found an NHL home, ironically in the same city his Dad is a hockey legend.

Mixed-media artist Andres Gallardo, 25, traveled from New York to Miami with one goal in mind: to hide his works of art throughout the streets of Wynwood.
Gallardo has become popular in the Northeast for creating works of art, hiding them in different parts of a city and organizing what he refers to as "Gem Scavenger Hunts" — searches in which people in the community go out looking for art and are free to take the works home if they find them. He did just that in Miami the weekend of Feb. 8-9.
"I have friends who live in Miami, and they called me telling me, 'It's a great time for art in Miami, you have to come down,' " said Gallardo, who in the past has mailed his art to friends here who organized scavenger hunts on his behalf.
"My friends told me that people had a very positive reaction to the 'gem hunt,' and on Twitter and Instagram I was able to see pictures of people showing off the pieces they had found," he said. " I loved looking at those photos and knowing I had something to do with the smiles on their faces."
Gallardo finally made the trip to Miami to see for himself what all the hype was about. On Saturday, he hid his art throughout the streets of Wynwood during the neighborhood's "Art Walk" that takes place the first Saturday of each month.
"I'm so glad to be in Miami to personally distribute my art. I've done this in different states, but because of my Latino culture, being in Miami and doing this here feels so right, " said Gallardo, admitting that he had fallen in love with the city in just a few days since arriving.
Gallardo, who is Panamanian, painted pieces meant especially for Miami. He chose to paint figures who are well-known in Miami, such as the Miami Heat's LeBron James, as well as salsa music legends Hector Lavoe and Oscar D'León.
Gallardo usually paints on old vinyl records and small pieces of wood and canvas and has been interviewed by several TV stations in Long Island, New York. He was featured in Time magazine when he painted on-the-spot Trayvon Martin pieces at a rally in New York City and gave away his artwork to protestors.
Of the scavenger hunts he orchestrated in Wynwood, Gallardo said: "This is my way of contributing to the burgeoning art movement here. Miami is becoming a mecca for artists, and I came here because I wanted to be a part of that."

- Great Food: nothing WOWEthica9Dined on 9/21/2014Good fresh sushi! Food came out fast, almost quicker than our drinks. Everything was great and trying to figure out why I wasn't wowed. Main reason I believe was limited menu in the sushi section for specialty rolls. They were all excellent as we had a large group and tried most of them. However, they mostly tasted the same.
- Great Food!DollDined on 9/21/2014Outstanding food. We will be back. Loved their drink Pineapple fusion. But cut the price in half or pour it in a bigger glass.Special Features:
- Great FindOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 9/20/2014Had an outstanding dinner with team from work. Great food, service, and a lovely view of the strip from our table.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great place, small portionsOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 9/17/2014Overall excellent. Definitely a foodie scene, but don't go there hungry. The portions are tiny for the price. Welcome to vegas!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- GREAT Sushi in the heart of StripHamptonsPhotographerDined on 9/16/2014We loved the amazing fresh sushi at Sushi Roku. The service was great and everyone was friendly. Owber walked by and greeted all the guests. We got an amazing table in the corner against the window overlooking the strip. Amazing Interior decor, one of the best Ive seen without beeing too overdone or tacky.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great spot and top serviceSandroDined on 9/15/2014We had a great table with nice view on the strip. The service was more than perfect. Sushi is quite pricy!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great sushi!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/15/2014We have never been to Vegas before and we both love sushi! We saw that Sushi Roku was near where we were staying and fairly reasonable with prices. Our server was great and the food was some of the best sushi we had ever had. We are pretty picky when it comes to sushi and we love sushi! The Truffle Butter edamame was AMAZING!!! Thanks for a great dinner in Vegas! It was the best we had while we were there.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Regulars & localsVegasgirlDined on 9/13/2014Arrived & were seated, had to get up after 15 minutes to ask for menus and water, wasn't happy about that. They usually treat us very well, however we usually go for happy hour at the bar area. Decided to dine in the dining room & were very disappointed at the pace of service as well as the order coming out wrong twice. Usually an establishment would try to remedy the issues by offering a complimentary something, but they did not. When the check came, we were also overbilled and had to wait 15 minutes longer for them to fix it. Not sure if that was an accidental error or if she hoped we wouldn't catch it.
- Favorited sushi on west coastBlackmambaDined on 9/13/2014Been to most roku locations. Love them. Samara Monica is the bestSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Grreat Food , Great ServicebdgFSVIPDined on 9/10/2014Our server Frank did a great job in guiding us with the menu and we hit all the highlights .. Seabass was especally great . thanks
- business dinnerGregbDined on 9/10/2014found this on yelp for a business dinner. Booked through Open Table. It was easy to get in, and to add a person to accommodate our group size. Food was excellent, and fairly priced for the quality. why would anyone go to Nobu?Special Features:
- Food was amazing!!!NaynayDined on 9/5/2014My husband and I were celebrating our 5 year anniversary. The food and service was great. The only thing that we found disappointing was the fact that we were told during our confirmation phone call that we would be receiving a complimentary dessert for our anniversary, and nothing ever came of it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Sushi RokuJasminSDDined on 9/5/2014Very good food. Excellent service. Only negative is that it's on the far end of the Forum Shops at Caesar's Palace. But worth it. Would go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- What a gem!Honey815Dined on 9/3/2014My friend and I attended on a Wednesday night, and surprisingly they were not busy. Great service and recommendations from the server. Not only was the food fantastic, but the view was stellar. We were seated with a view overlooking the strip. Also had an excellent specialty cocktail list. Generous portions as well.Special Features:
- Fantastic...again!!!delicioVIPDined on 9/1/2014Sushi Roku has become my "go to" Japanese restaurant in Las Vegas and consistently offers an amazing menu and terrific service. One word of warning...bring your flashlight to read the menu - the lighting in the restaurant is quite dim. It's worth the eye strain though, as Sushi Roku has never disappointed.Special Features:
- Las Vegas Hopping Hot SpotCAfoodie12Dined on 8/30/2014We ordered the appetizer, Asparagus wrapped in filet mignon…it was divine! Seweed salad had a different dressing than typical, but was very yummy. For our main we ordered 4 sushi rolls, which were fresh and delicious. The serving size of the rolls were quite a bit smaller than we are use to, so we had to order more. My suggestion would be to order 2 per person and share! We also enjoyed Mochi ice cream for dessert. The strawberry and mint were my favorite. The chocolate espresso was good, but a bit over powering in flavor. Ambiance was comfortable and decor was unique. If you prefer a quite dinner, I would suggest to have an early dinner. Our reservation was for 7pm and by 8pm the noise level picked up as the restaurant began to fill.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- a take the company to spotDMCGODDESSVIPDined on 8/29/2014I had guests from Florida who loved this place. One is a world traveler who said it was the best Salmon Roll she had ever enjoyed. I had the Soft Shell Crab roll and it was memorable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Must eat/see!NewToOTDined on 8/24/2014There was a group of 3 of us... found this place on Open Table and it certainly did not fail! The food was amazing. We had the most amazing look of the strip lights. And our waitress was the most helpful/friendliest person I have ever had. Highly recommend! A friend of mine had the filet mignon, another the jalapeno roll and I had the baked lobster... AMAZING!Special Features:
- Just OK experience / foodOpenTable Diner Since 2011VIPDined on 8/22/2014I got the Matsu, which is their signature sushi dish. It was just OK. The best thing on the plate was the crab with champagne butter topping. The uni was also very good, if you like uni. Otherwise, the signature toppings were mostly not as good as just fresh wasabi and soy sauce. One thing that affected my appetite greatly was that our server allowed the food runner to run through each of the sushi items on the plate for me. In almost all cases, I want the server to explain the meal to me in order for me to feel as if I am being treated as a respected customer. In this case, the food runner's accent caused him to spit on me and ostensibly my food while he was talking - which left me feeling disgusting for the rest of the meal.
- Wedding Dinnernumbersguy75Dined on 8/22/2014Sushi Roku was a great choice for our wedding dinner. We had an earlier sitting and our table had a fantastic view of the Las Vegas strip. We were in a bit of a hurry because we needed to get to the Bruno Mars concert (slick planning to have Bruno play at "our wedding reception" LOL!) I wish we could've taken a little more time with the menu to more carefully select our meals...not our server's fault. Service was timely. Food quality was very good, but not great considering the price. Our final bill with gratuity was nearly $300 for 3 people. Everyone left satisfied although I'd say the portions were definitely on the smaller side and the presentation was not as good, in my opinion, as Nobu where we had dinner two nights prior.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- High quality sushiAdrieneMDined on 8/21/2014We went to Sushi Roku specifically for the sushi, and we were not disappointed. Everything we ordered was fresh and delicious. The salmon, scallops, and tuna belly were especially big hits.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Yummy YummyOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/20/2014From appetizers to entrees everything was amazing! This is a must try.Special Features:
- Disappointing Menu but Good ServiceTXJBDDined on 8/19/2014I'm not going to complain about the price relative to the quality of the sushi because this is, after all, Las Vegas. What I will complain about is the selection of sushi rolls. There are only about eight to choose from, and we ordered about six of them. Four were good but not great, and the other two were not appealing at all. Stay away from the Crab Dynamite. Even at mediocre sushi restaurants, there are usually at least a few rolls to get excited about. Not here. The sashimi was good. If you come, I'd recommend sticking with nigiri and sashimi sushi and just avoid the rolls altogether. Service was very good. Our group of five had two servers that took great care of us.Special Features:
- MeggieVIPDined on 8/17/2014It's hard to decide which was better, the service or the food. Both were outstanding!Special Features:

Thank you!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Loved itAddasVIPDined on 8/13/2014We almost came here twice on our last trip to Vegas it was so good. We let our waiter make recommendations, and that was the best decision. The items we chose were good, but not as amazing. The kobe beef dumplings were one of the best items I have ever placed in my mouth. The yellowtail sashimi app was also a must try.Special Features:
- great experiencehungrybirdDined on 8/11/2014I'm not a sushi lover but this place will make me come back for their signature sushis.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OutstandingldaschaVIPDined on 8/11/2014Definitely stands up to it's reputation, we enjoyed a wide variety of sushi, and grill dishes. Each was just outstanding to share, and the value was outstanding for the selections and the price. Would definitely return and highly recommend.Special Features:
- Worth the priceOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/9/2014We had dinner at Sushi Roku on a Saturday night. The resturant was very busy but we received excellent service and the food was amazing. We asked our server for recommendations and every dish was exceptional. We definitely will be going back during our next trip to Las Vegas.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

We had seating that was comfortable with a wonderful view of the Las Vegas strip. We were a little early for the dinner crowd, but the bar scene was hopping by the time we left and the bar area is beautiful.Special Features:
- AllaboutthesauceAllaboutthesauceDined on 7/27/2014Service was outstanding. Atmosphere is funky and fun. However, we were disappointed with the food. The highlight was the dessert of beignets. Otherwise, everything was somewhat tasteless and pricey. Would not go back

The service was excellent, they comp'd any dessert on the menu for the birthday and they even served the dish with a sparkling candle. I would highly recommend this restaurant for any occasion/dinner.Special Features:
- Exceptional servicelocalfoodieDined on 7/25/2014Sushi Roku is not only a locals' favorite, it's a place to take out-of-state/country guests out to dinner -- to confidently(!) and proudly show off what's best about Las Vegas!

A very well run establishment in every way.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

by Corey Pronman
The college FA signings will start soon and while I won't be able to cover every signing, on players I am able to cover those notes will be posted here.
Kellan Lain, Center, Vancouver Canucks (Lake Superior):
Lain is an older than usual Junior, a 23 year old who turns 24 in July. His main asset is his physical game, at 6′6′' 222 not only is he tall and strong but tough as well. He's a big center who can win battles and make opposing defensemen aware of his presence on the ice. He also skates at a decent level for a man his size. Lain doesn't have a whole lot of offensive upside, notching 39 points over 108 NCAA games, but he does have some defensive value and I think he can stay at center at the pro level. He actually led Lake Superior in face off % this season, winning 56% of his 571 draws. That's not a great sample, but it is nevertheless intriguing.
Andrej Sustr, Defense, Tampa Bay Lightning (Nebraska-Omaha):
Sustr is a very toolsy prospect with significant upside although with some risk as well. The 22 year old Junior was on the third All-WCHA team this season, notching 25 points in 39 games, putting him top 20 in NCAA scoring for defensemen. His skating is average, but notably above-average for a 6′8′' defenseman. His mobility has seen significant advancements in the last 12-24 months. He's a good puck-mover too, showing nice touch with the puck and the offensive instincts to make unusual offensive plays for a player his size. For Nebraska-Omaha on the man advantage I've seen him be used in front of the net as a screen or a primary quarterback up high. This combo of traits make Sustr a very desirable asset with the potential to be a #3 if not a #2 defenseman. He is not a player without warts though, for one even though he's a huge player with a good wingspan, he isn't all that physical. His decisions in both ends, while not a major issue, could use some work as he can make the odd bad turnover or be off with his positioning.
Danny DeKeyser, Defense, Detroit Red Wings (Western Michigan):
DeKeyser is the top player of this college free agent class and would have been so last year had he not decided to go back to school. DeKeyser is the two-time best defensive defenseman in the CCHA and was named to the CCHA's first All Star team. Some may wonder when you look at his numbers — 49 points in 118 NCAA games, 15 points in 35 games this season — and ask what all the hype is about; and it is because he has such great defensive value. DeKeyser has high-end hockey sense, good if not great mobility and a big frame that he's not afraid to use. Given how well he processes the game, how many defensive stops he makes, the low amount of errors he commits, and where he is in his physical development, it is conceivable the 23 year old DeKeyser could step into the NHL right away upon being signed. He does have average offensive ability as a puck mover, and could potentially play a 2nd power play unit on a non elite team. His potential is that of a good #3 defenseman with a low amount of risk on that projection.

Any pet owner knows that if four-legged friends are left alone long enough, something is going to get chewed up -- but problems can arise when they eat it instead of leaving a mess of shreds.
The reasons dogs chew range from anxiety to diet and simple mischievousness, and though some discoveries can be funny, others can be pretty serious when it comes to pet health.
As much as owners try to let their dogs exercise their demons away and walk out their anxieties, there isn't always a way to stop the chew therapy that helps pups cope with separation anxiety; however, some items that make it down the hatch can be hazardous.
At the University of Minnesota Veterinary Medical Center in St. Paul and at the BluePearl Emergency Vet Clinic in Eden Prairie, veterinarians have seen plenty of pooches that scarfed down something bizarre -- including forks, toys and rocks.
In fact, the eye-catching X-ray outlining a steak knife inside a stomach is all too common. Dogs that may have an inedible object in their digestive tract may take days to show symptoms, but over time, they won't be able to keep anything down and may stop eating altogether.
The only option is surgery, which can cost a pretty penny; however, veterinarians say it's usually a preventable problem since chewing relieves anxiety.
Dogs aren't the only pets that struggle with strange tastes under stress either. Cats often swallow string -- even a curly cord from a landline phone or erasers.
Typically, the cause of stress among domestic animals is that they are left home alone too much, which leaves them operating in a deficit of stimulation and socialization.

CAPE GIRARDEAU, MO (KFVS) - After five months of testing, here are the results of the Flag Saver test.
"This thing's been through rain and wind, sometimes even 40-55 mph winds," said tester Wendell Watkins.
The acrylic Flag Saver piece promises to divert enough wind keep the flag from fraying and lasting longer.
"I'm real pleased with it. I'm surprised at it myself."
After five months of testing, the flag still looks like it's in mint condition. Wendell says he can tell a difference between having the Flag Saver piece on and not. He compared it to his neighbor's flags.
"The flag over at the senior center would be completely out. This one barely. The conditions might be different, but I think this works."
Remember, it's designed to work on poles with a pulley system to clip the flag in place. It will not work on poles where you simply slide the flag over the pole. Wendell and I realize there will still be some "naysayers" who don't believe this piece actually cuts down on some of the wind getting to the flag. He says you just have to try it.
"It'd have to be a hurricane or a tornado to tear it up."
Wendell wishes he would've had something like this years ago, it might have saved him from buying the new flag and his original Old Glory from fading.
"I'd say it works. I'd give it a grade 'A."
After several months of testing, multiple thunderstorms, and high winds we proudly salute the $48 Flag Saver with an 'A' on this Does it Work test. You can only buy the Flag Saver online at www.theflagsaver.com It ranges in price from $48 to $72, depending on the size of the flag.

Greed & Stuff : It's the story of a man named Marty. Once he was a very busy TV sitcom star. Then he kind of burned out and became a washed-up private eye. Now Marty Burns is back on television, playing a P.I. and trying to make rehashed Hawaii Five-O scripts sound convincing. While he's waiting to find out if his show is going to be renewed, Marty stumbles across an enigma involving the classic noir film The Devil on Sunday, a shady remake, and a very real corpse. Greed & Stuff is Jay Russell's strongest novel yet - a fast-moving, wise-cracking L.A. story peopled with fascinating characters, brimming with brio, and driven by a compelling mystery.

High-speed, low-level palletizerVIDEO FROM INTERPACK. The SP-1000 HS palletizer from Sidel uses two Fanuc robots to guide layers alternatively to the right or to the left while optimizing the "return stroke" time that traditionally is an empty, nonproductive moment.
Sidel's SP 1000 HS is a high-speed, low-level palletizer that uses improved machinery and intelligent software to effectively combine two core functions, layer preparation and palletization, to maintain steady pallets while layers are in movement.

N-rays The disastrous affair of the "N-rays" thoroughly embarrassed the French——and the scientific world——back in 1903, when Prosper René Blondlot, a distinguished physicist of the city of Nancy, announced his discovery of strange radiations that he said emanated from every substance——except green wood and pieces of metal that had been "anesthetized" by dipping them into chloroform or ether. The apparent existence of these rays was soon confirmed by dozens of scientists around the world through scientific papers submitted to science journals.
A single physicist, American Robert Wood, was sent in by the British Association of Scientists and reported his results to Nature magazine (then, as now, one of the leading science journals). Wood showed the French scientists that not only were their experimental processes faulty, but their rays were totally imaginary.
The N-rays affair provides the single most effective and important example of scientific error through experimenter bias and expectation, an example which might well be improved upon by the present German fascination with the equally imaginary E-rays.
