Jobs, Co-ops and Internships
The Internship Advantage
Internships enhance classroom learning by integrating real-world work experience, confirming or redirecting career decision-making, improving job opportunities after graduation, providing networking opportunities, and supplementing income while earning a degree. Part of a student's education is learning what is required of them to be a professional. Going through the professional application process early in their college career will make preparing a resume/cover letter and interviewing second nature by the time the student is ready to graduate. Several CAEST students worked internships during the 2013-2014 year and have graciously provided quotes describing their experiences.
Student Quotes:
"My internship with NASA Glenn Research Center represents the single most valuable contributor to my college education. While at NASA, I discovered that NASA employs some of the brightest and most prolific people in the science and engineering fields. The resulting academic environment was extremely stimulating and motivating. I particularly enjoyed the opportunity to have experts explain their research to me, show me their research facilities, and generally involve me in their work. There are few places in the world where people are so passionate about the organization for which they work, and the work which they do there. My colleagues motivated me to think harder, to work smarter and to immerse myself in the NASA culture. My work at NASA also gave me a much more concrete idea of the direction I would like my career to go. This discovery has allowed me to better plan my future education, and has given me an idea of the steps I need to take to secure my desired career. Just doing this one internship will give me a much better chance of securing another work experience, as I have been able to network effectively and prove my own skills to the largest aerospace research organization in the world. Having this experience has given me the confidence and motivation that I need to continue my education, and move forward on a path toward a meaningful career in research and technology." B. K.
"BGI is a very special place and filled with some of the brightest minds in aviation. It is very humbling to be a part of it. There's a lot from the internship experience that I'm sure will pay dividends for me some time later in life. I'm lucky and proud to be with BGI. It is awesome to have a job you can brag about." E. Q.
"Interning at Quality Resources, LLC allowed me to pursue a career in corporate and business aviation that I previously never thought of as an opportunity. Aviation departments are looking to hire people with experience and doing an internship is a great way to build valuable experience. Kent State University's new internship program incentivizes area businesses to hire interns, which in turn will help the students succeed in their careers." C.O.
"Interning with Parker is a great opportunity where I get to see and work with engineering principles and procedures, while gaining real world experience from a Fortune 500 company that cannot be taught in the class room." A.G.
National Heat Exchange CC -"This internship has allowed me to apply my Kent State education to a real-world professional environment while earning a wage and gaining experience necessary for being competitive in the post-graduation career search." K.S.

Crabtree's Kittle House Gets Creative with Crown Maple Syrup, Eggs and BaconSubmitted by Robb on September 14, 2011 - 8:54am
I had an amazing lunch experience the other day at Crabtree's Kittle House, a truly great restaurant in Chappaqua, New York. Managing Partner Glenn Vogt had the chef prepare an eggs and bacon dish in which the bacon is cured with our Dark Amber syrup. Outrageous! I had to take this photo and share it with you.
Glenn also serves as Wine Director there and he showed me their cellar with around 60,000 bottles. As we talked about wine, I shared with him how Crown Maple Syrup is crafted and how the terroir of our corner of the Hudson River Valley combines with our breakthrough production processes to create a 100% pure product with exceptional clean, crisp taste. Glenn immediately drew comparisons to how wine is produced. We agreed that wine and Crown Maple Syrup really have a lot in common.
From the Farm provides updates on how the Crown Maple team is turning sap from the some of the most regal maple trees into quite possibly the purest maple syrup on earth. The Crown Maple team shares their insight into maple sugaring, the latest maple syrup production techniques, life in the sugarbush, conserving the land and sustainable forestry. Interested in more?

Despite having some of the toughest gun laws in the country, Massachusetts appears poised to enact even tighter restrictions following the mass shooting that killed 20 first-graders and six adults at an elementary school in Connecticut, House Speaker Robert DeLeo said.
"There is a feeling among all of us — from the administration to the Senate to us — that this is one of the priority subject matters for us to address this session. I do feel there will be some movement," DeLeo said in an interview with the Globe last week. "We've got to do something about it."

There's really no excuse to not subscribe to HBO. Even if only to re-watch all the seasons of The Sopranos over and over and over on HBO GO. (What, just me?) But for those who opt not to pay the monthly premium, the network is offering a free peek at two of its buzziest new shows.
Beginning the day after their premieres on HBO, the pilot episodes of Girls and Veep will be available for free on HBO.com, YouTube, DailyMotion, TV.com and several cable providers' On Demand services.
Girls, produced by Judd Apatow and created by and starring Lena Dunham (pictured), takes a decidedly non-Sex and the City look at the comedic trials and tribulations of a group of young women living in New York City. It premieres this Sunday, April 15, at 10:30 ET, and its sampling opportunity will run through May 14. (An offer the struggling characters on Girls would no doubt appreciate.)
Veep, meanwhile, is a political satire in the vein of In The Loop starring Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Vice President Selina Meyer, a woman who ""discovers the job is nothing like she expected, but everything she was warned about."" Veep debuts a week after Girls, April 22, at 10 p.m. ET, and its free free viewing period (which includes a free iTunes download) ends May 21. Don't fuhgeddaboutit.

Last fall we introduced Building a Healthy Me!, a new program for transitional and Kindergarten students and completed an evaluation to determine the effectiveness of the classroom units. Observing kindergartners engage with their peers to learn about nutrition was a pleasure. Statewide, almost 700 students completed the pre- and post-survey to identify what they learned about the food groups.
The results indicated 5 and 6 year olds can improve their nutrition knowledge and parents heard their kids talking about nutrition. This dialogue at home leads to kids:
Working with 32 classroom teachers in the evaluation project, we observed a lot of great teaching ideas. Many teachers like to start the year with nutrition since it's a topic that engages all students, even the quiet ones. One creative teacher started the program in November talking about a turkey with five different colored feathers to represent the five food groups.
Teacher highlights included:
Survey results indicated that teachers found the program an effective way to promote healthy eating (97%) and improved students' ability to choose healthy foods (90%). One hundred percent of teachers found the activities easy to teach, taking 11-19 minutes each with an average preparation time of just 3-8 minutes per activity. Read more about the evaluation results and order your teaching materials today. Better yet, see the program in action with our video.

Back-to-school time usually means back to harried schedules that add homework and soccer practice into an already compressed evening for working parents. Making time for healthy meals and exercise can be overwhelming. No wonder that 60% of Americans say with all that they juggle, they only want to spend about 15 minutes prepping meals (see the full infographic from Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics).
As a busy working mom, I make healthy eating a priority for me and my family, but I don't have hours to dedicate to the endeavor. Since having twins six years ago, I have learned some tips to make the evenings run smoothly while still getting everyone to eat healthy dinners. While the best tip I was ever given was to follow Ellyn Satter's Division of Responsibility, if you are already doing that, here are my top tips that will hopefully make your evening healthier and happier.
When you are busy, you will eat what is around the house or resort to ordering in or using the drive-thru. By stocking your pantry and freezer with some basic staples (use our Staples Shopping List), you can rest assured that there will always be something to pull together at the last-minute. In my house, that often looks like tortillas, cheese, a can of beans for quesadillas or burritos served with vegetables from the freezer; whole wheat bread, tomato, deli ham and cheese for a quick grilled sandwich.
If I do have some time to put into crafting a more-complicated main dish, I go with very easy side dishes to round out the meal and make sure all five food groups are present. (This also comes back to tip #1.) Baby carrots, frozen peas or a cucumber sliced with rice vinegar often constitutes our veggie. Already-cooked frozen brown rice, five-minute couscous or toasted whole wheat bread offers a grain. Fruit grabbed from the bowl on our counter hits that food group. Pouring glasses of milk feels like the easiest one of all.
Each weekend, I take a few minutes to scratch out a meal plan for the week. I make my grocery list at the same time and think ahead about what nights we have commitments. I also determine whether I need to do some batch-cooking on Sunday to get us through the week, or if I should pick up a roasted chicken from the supermarket that can easily be added to a salad, quesadilla or served alongside pasta.
I used to get stuck in this planning phase, trying to remember the meals that are quick and the family enjoys eating. I'd find myself flipping through cookbooks and searching online and my few minutes of planning turned into an hour or more. Getting organized and keeping track of your go-to meals or quick recipes is essential for making this part of the healthy eating process easier. I have been keeping mine on Pinterest. Try this Pinterest board for some of my favorite easy, family recipes and ideas.
I used to feel guilty about the nights when life had gotten too hectic and the trip to the grocery store didn't happen as I'd planned so I resorted to serving my kids a bowl of cereal or yogurt with granola for dinner. But you know what? They love those nights and so do I. We still gather round the table, I set out some fruit to go with it, and we are having a well-balanced meal with a lot of nutrients. Dishes are a snap and we all get a moment to take a collective breath. I can't think of anything healthier than that.
What are some of your tips for juggling work, home and busy evenings with eating healthy?

With back to school in full swing, advanced planning is essential to make regular family meals a reality. From healthier eating to better academic performance, the benefits of eating together as a family are so significant, it's worth the investment for the whole family. To help get the school year off to a healthy start with family meals, here are a month's worth of recipes and ideas.

Nothing says "back to school" like backpacks, school supplies and packing lunches. At the start of the school year, it's easy to forget about making time to pack a lunch during your busy morning routine. Even if you are able to throw a lunch together before you're out the door, you're never quite sure if what you've packed will actually get eaten. Where does the balance lie between packing a healthy lunch and providing foods kids will actually eat?
Our Lunch Box printable has over 36 kid-friendly options to help you pack in all five food groups. This guide makes lunch-making easier. Simply choose from each category and you're good to go! Here are more great tips to help.
If you decide to pack a lunch, plan and prepare the night before to ensure all five food groups are on tomorrow's menu. Research shows that milk is often missing from lunches brought from home. Did you know your child can purchase milk from the school cafeteria? Milk and milk products provide essential nutrients like high-quality protein, calcium, potassium and other vitamins required for a healthy diet.
When time is crunched, buying meals from the school lunch program is a nutritionally-balanced and affordable alternative to packing a lunch. School meals are required to be the Dietary Guidelines for Americans and offer students the right balance of fruits, vegetables, low-fat or fat-free milk, whole grains and lean protein with every meal. Check out your child's school cafeteria as many schools have invested in improving and enhancing their school foodservice options with salad bars, smoothies and other appealing options.
It's one thing to pack healthy food, but another to get kids to eat what you pack. Try showcasing foods bento-box style or in silicone muffin cups to make them fun to eat. Another strategy is to explore some kid-friendly recipes and ask your kids to pick the winning dishes. Get your kids' input during grocery shopping and packing, too.

SAUGATUCK, MI (WHTC) - The Jessica Heeringa case is overshadowing another missing person case along the Lakeshore. Jeffrey Woodruff hasn't been seen since late Saturday night at Wally's Bar in Saugatuck, and a number of family members and friends from the Saginaw Bay community of Pinconning made the three-hour drive last night to personally comb the Saugatuck-Douglas area, looking for the 25-year-old man.
Woodruff is described as a clean-cut, 5-6, 140-pound, muscular Caucasian man with a Celtic tattoo on his back. His brother Jordan said that Jeffrey's cell phone was found in a park near the Hoffman Street tavern, and added that there are no signs of frustration over the Heeringa case diverting attention from this situation.
Anyone with any information is asked to contact the Michigan State Police, who is in charge of the search, or Silent Observer.

Magnus Midtbö is one of the few climbers who have climbed both 9b and 8C. In this video he makes the first ascent of Blood redemption, 8C, at Gjeddehenget, Matre, Norway.
Only a couple of weeks ago, almost two years after the first, Adam Ondra made the 2nd ascent with a different start and said it felt like 8B+ to him this way.
In today's WC qualifications at Chamonix, Magnus qualified for the semis in joint 1st position.

Two Families Traveling Together
We just returned from an amazing trip. We were traveling with our four adult kids (ages 18 to 21) and another family with three adult kids ages 18-21). The Villa was perfect for us. We have done the all inclusive and cruises only to not see our children during the trip because we had to have seperate rooms. We wanted one roof and a group setting. This was perfect. Centrally located and close to everything just by walking. We prepared meals, had coctails and just hung out all together, lots of laughter and fun. My kids 18, 18, 20, 21 all agreed this topped our Hawaii trip just because we were together yet they had their space. Senior Frogs is just a walk down the beach for them, because we did not want them around 5th Ave. 5th Ave is fine but very touristy. We were able to get off the path and find the local flavor and inexpensive cost. One place we took our own cooler for drinks and each ate for $2.50 a piece (we went twice!). We went to Walmart for groceries and with a meal plan, ate and drink at the villa together for $18 per person per day. Carlos was very attentive and offered suggestions to again go where the locals go for snorkling and Cenote swiming, controling the cost. We catered a meal in one night, cooked by his 70 year old aunt and it was totally amazing! Ms. Eleornora (the owner) has been very gracious and completely helpful during our several months of planning. The villa is a VERY short walk to the beach, we took the chairs from the deck with us because it was so short. There is a short cut to fifth avenue at the end of the street which travels right by the ruins. For snorking check out Paamul!!!! Kentuchi is great Cenote and only $29 for the day! We all agree after returning home we are going through vacation withdrawls and miss each others company in the kitchen. Jump on this villa if you get a chance it is truly amazing. Karen
Great condo in a great location.
Location, location, location. We had a wonderful trip to Play Del Carmen in large part due to this great location and comfortable condo. We were only 100-150 meters from the beach or 100-150 meters to 5th ave. the condo provide something for everyone. We spent a couple days walking to the ferry and scuba diving on the island of Cozumel. We also enjoyed swimming in the pool or ocean, laying out on the beach, and walking / shopping down 5th ave. We found amazing restaurants down 5th ave and the condo provided some quality family time around the table laughing while we played a game or watched a movie. Some of our most enjoyable time was quite nights on the back deck with the sound of the surf and wrestling palms. The front porch was a beautiful spot to relax in the morning. Since the condo provided WiFi internet access I was able to catch up on emails in the morning, while the family slept. Our daughter enjoyed updating friends on Facebook in the evening, posting pictures of the places and events of the day. The condo was a perfect fit for our little family. We had a wonderful time! The VanDyke Family
Rent with a superior level of confidence!
This was our first experience renting through VRBO and we were not disapointed! The owner of this property, as well as his condo manager, were true assets to our 10 day long trip to Playa Del Carmen...In fact, our father had a health problem during our stay in Mexico and both of them offered us their help and support without hesitation. So, if you appreciate the pictures and characteristics detailed in this listing, which are 100% accurante, I urge you to reserve with confidence! You will be dealing with more than professionnal business partners, you will be dealing with kind-hearted human beings!

The world lost a great performer and comedian today: Joan Rivers. In her memory, we're sharing some beautiful images of her from our Digital Collection, including this photo of her with her daughter Melissa. Let us fulfill what Melissa considered her mother's final wish; "that we return to laughing too."
We are deeply saddened to hear of the loss of Emmy and Tony Award winning actress Elaine Stritch, whose acerbic personality and memorable stage and screen performances have captured hearts for decades. This 1954 promotional photo from our Billy Rose Theatre Division features Stritch as Peggy Porterfield in a revival of "On Your Toes," and captures her personalty perfectly. Learn more about the American Theater Hall of Famer by checking out materials from your local NYPL branch.
On this day in 1840, Samuel Morse received the patent for his telegraph machine.
(the ancestor to your iPhone)This photo from NYPL's Wallach Photography Division shows the original instrument that sent the first ever telegraph message 4 years later from the Washington end of the Washington-Baltimore telegraph line.
The More You Know… Happy Friday!
Little girls in floral dresses and a young boy in knickers and a pair of chucks = early mid-20th century New York City. Harlem to be precise and the George Bruce Library to be exact. They're looking at the window display "Your Public Library," which was a popular display at the branch and at times featured Americana (like the one above), ships, art from different cultures, Democracy, and other topics. Take a stroll down our memory lane - otherwise known as the Digital Collections - and learn more about NYPL's historic branches.
And if you love George Bruce Library or one of our other lovely locations, be sure to sign NYPL's petition and tell City leaders we need more Library funding!
Happy Caturday from The New York Public Library's Library for the Performing Arts! In this rare 1964 Martha Swope photo from the Jerome Robbins Dance Division (unearthed by our own Jeremy Megraw), internationally-renowned choreographer George Balanchine (known by many as the father of modern American ballet) watches in flip flops as his cat Mourka flies through the air with the greatest of ease (the cat became famous - this photo was once in Life magazine, and a book was written about him and his ability to do acrobatic dance moves). It's good to know that even a legend like Balanchine gave his cat that familiar, bewildered "What in the name of all that is good are you doing" look. Happy Caturday! And, while you're thinking of it, flip through more amazing, rare photos from our collections here - there are plenty of other cat images.
In honor of the newly-arrived Spring,
and our fervent hope for warmer weather,today's Caturday from NYPL's 1939 World's Fair Collection features a magnolia blossom and two extraordinarily tiny kittens.
On this day in 1909 William H. Taft was inaugurated as the 27th President of the United States. To commemorate the occasion we selected this photograph from NYPL's Photography Collection of President Taft with his presidential predecessor Theodore Roosevelt, who are both sporting some magnificent mustaches!
Absurd Vintage Skating Photos Even Non-Sports Fans Will Love →
For the full list visit NYPL's blog!
So you think you can figure skate? Are you photogenic? Can you tolerate the cold? Let these vintage figure skating photos be your guide.
Skating can be hard.
Like when you need to pull a giant sign AND smile at the same time.
Or wear heavy hair bows.
Or an annoying guy who isn't even wearing skates tries to get in on your chorus line.
America's first President certainly left his mark on the future of our country and if the legend is true, he also left his mark for all to see at the majestic Natural Bridge in Virginia. This photograph from NYPL's Pageant of America series captures the moment in stark black and white. We find it pretty inspirational! We wouldn't go so far as to say that folks should carve their initials in the beauty of nature, but it does make us consider how to leave our mark in other ways.
Today we bid farewell to comic genius Sid Caesar. Above is a photo from LPA's Billy Rose Theater Collection, which shows the television pioneer mid-sketch with his fabled partner in comedic crime - Imogene Coca.
We enjoyed the show Mr. Caesar and we thank you for the lifetime of laughs you bestowed on us.
If you would like to learn more about the imitable Sid Caesar, the Library has books, movies and cds featuring the legendary comedian.

Eye Health Center
Vision Tests
Results continued...
Confrontation tests and Amsler grid tests take just a few minutes. More thorough visual field testing that uses perimetry and tangent screens can take more than 45 minutes when both eyes are tested.
Color vision test
People who have normal color vision are able to distinguish the colored numbers, symbols, or paths from the background of colored dots.
If you are not able to distinguish some or all of the colored patterns from the background, you may have a color vision problem. You may be able to pick out some patterns of colors but not others, or you may be able to pick out patterns that are different from a person with normal vision, depending on what type of color vision problem you have.
This test takes only a few minutes.
Many conditions can change your vision test results. Your health professional will discuss any significant abnormal results with you in relation to your symptoms and past health.
What Affects the Test
Reasons you may not be able to have the test or why the results may not be helpful include:
- Your ability to understand or follow instructions. Some vision tests cannot be done on babies, small children, or people who cannot understand or follow the instructions.
- Your ability to stay alert and respond to questions.
- Failure to wear prescribed eyeglasses or contact lenses.
- Poor lighting.
What To Think About
- Eye charts that use pictures or symbols (such as an E chart) may be needed to test children or people who cannot read. Vision tests are also available for babies and young children.
- A complete eye and vision evaluation also includes a physical examination of the structures inside the eye. To learn more, see the topic Ophthalmoscopy.
- A test to screen for increased intraocular pressure (IOP), which increases your risk for glaucoma, is often part of a routine eye exam. It also is used to monitor treatment for glaucoma. Tonometry can be used to determine whether a medicine is keeping your IOP below a set target pressure determined by your doctor. To learn more, see the topic Tonometry.
- Home tests for near vision in adults and distance vision in children are available. These tests should not replace a thorough eye examination by a health professional.

PHILADELPHIA -- Even in absentia from the opening night roster, Andrew Bynum heard a roaring ovation when he was introduced.
By the end, the loudest cheers were reserved for the active big man in the middle: "Spen-cer Hawes!"
Hawes had 16 points, 12 rebounds and five blocked shots to lead the Philadelphia 76ers to an 84-75 win over the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday night.
Hawes was set to start at power forward alongside Bynum until the All-Star centre's knee injury forced third-year coach Doug Collins to shuffle his lineup. Hawes accepted the shift to sixth man without complaint and proved how valuable he'll be around the basket with Bynum absent.
On opening night, Hawes even heard chants of "MVP!" from a rowdy crowd of nearly 20,000 fans holding lofty expectations for the Sixers.
"We want to be the kind of team they can embrace," Hawes said. "We have big expectations this year. We know we have to contribute whatever way we're asked."
Hawes and Jrue Holiday turned away a Nuggets team late in the fourth that whittled a 13-point deficit down to one off a Ty Lawson jumper.
Holiday was fouled on a fallaway jumper and made the free throw for a 74-70 lead. Hawes then stuffed a driving Lawson, was fouled, and made two free throws to stretch it back to six in a matter of seconds.
Hawes buried a jumper to make it 78-70 and the crowd went wild with "MVP" chants for the 7-foot-1 centre. Oh, Hawes had one more block for good measure to seal the win.
Holiday had 14 and 11 assists, and Dorell Wright scored 14 points for the revamped Sixers.
After the game the team announced they signed Holiday to an extension.
"I'm ecstatic to continue playing in Philadelphia," Holiday said. "I'm going to keep putting in the work and pushing myself every day in order to bring a championship to the city and our fans."
A person familiar with the deal told The Associated Press that it was for four years and worth at least $41 million. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because it is team policy not to disclose contract terms. The Sixers had until midnight to strike a deal or risk Holiday becoming a restricted free agent at the end of the season.
Lawson led Denver with 16 points in his first game since signing a $48 million, four-year extension. Andre Iguodala scored 11 points in his first game since the Sixers traded him to Denver in the four-team deal that netted them Bynum.
The Sixers underwent a massive overhaul that saw them dump pricey veterans Iguodala, Elton Brand and Lou Williams. They brought in Bynum, Wright, Jason Richardson and a cast of reserves expected to build off last season's surprising run to the Eastern Conference semifinals.
Iguodala returned after an eight-year career with the 76ers where he became an All-Star and an Olympic gold medallist . He heard loud, intense boos during pregrame introductions and was booed about every time he touched the ball. The Sixers did air a video tribute at the first timeout of his finest moment as a Sixer, when he sank the winning free throws with 2.2 seconds left in a 79-78 victory over the top-seeded Chicago Bulls in Game 6, helping them advance to the second round of the Eastern Conference playoffs for the first time since 2003. Fans stood and cheered him for the first and only time of the game.
He thanked the Sixers and their fans on his personal website Wednesday, writing, "I will always share my accomplishments with the city and the organization and I thank you both for all that you have done for me."
Iguodala criticized the Sixers after the deal and said he hadn't "really enjoyed basketball a whole lot the last couple of years. He said after the game the comments were not a shot at Collins. But Iguodala made it clear the fact he never became the franchise player the fans expected after an $80 million, six-year contract weighed on him.
"I was really saying, I didn't get to enjoy success," Iguodala said. "I made the All-Star team, played on the USA team, played on the 2010 (World Championships) team, and it seemed like every time I stepped back on the court, it wasn't enough."
He added: "Money always plays a role in how someone is percieved or looked at as far as production. I feel like I made a huge impact on my team night in and night out, whether it showed up on the stat sheet or not, and it was always brought up. Every night, you're thinking, this last game I played good, but it's still not enough, not enough, not enough."
Sixers die-hards may have never truly embraced Iguodala, but they roared when Bynum walked out of the tunnel at pregame introductions.
Bynum remains indefinitely sidelined with a bone bruise in his right knee. The Sixers are being cautious with Bynum and refuse to rush him back.
They'd rather have the services of the centre considered the best in the East for the long haul instead of a few games, or even a few weeks, at the start of the season.
With the way Hawes played around the basket, Bynum can afford to get all the rest he needs.
Notes: Denver forward Danillo Gallinari sat out with a sprained left ankle. ... The Sixers brought back former greats Moses Malone and Dikembe Mutombo. ... Hawes addressed the crowd before the game and told them to get ready for a great season. ... The Sixers wore their alternate blue uniforms with red trim. ... The crowd of 19,101 was not a sellout.

How To Be Possessed By a Demon
A little girl was playing Ouija and accidentally called forth the spirit of 15th President James Buchanan. His essence possessed her and from that day forth, she was prone to indigestion, excessive use of foul language and would, on occasion, slip into a sort of Fugue State and begin scrawling glyphs on the walls in her own excrement while shrieking in an elder tongue.
So as you can well see, demonic possession is not a thing to be trifled with. Read on to get some tips and tricks on how to live your life as the puppet of a demon.
Signs of PossessionBefore we get started, it's probably a good idea to make sure you actually ARE in fact possessed by a demon. Here are the most common symptoms of possession:
- High-ish Fever
- Heavy Vomiting / Facial Sweating
- Inability to Open Jars or Cans Without Assistance
- Tendency to Frequently Visit or Bite Elderly Relatives
- Lustful Thoughts About Inanimate Objects (e.g. Task Chairs,
Analog Clocks, Carpet Samples, etc)
- Oily Rectal or Ocular Discharge
- Unexplained Outbursts at Pets
- Extremely Violent or Reckless Behavior (Riding a Motorbike, Throwing Poisonous Snakes, Bareknuckle Rodeo, Skywriting, etc.)
You should always remember though that these can vary from person-to-person, so use your best judgment when self-diagnosing. If you are ever unsure if any of your symptoms may be indicative of possession, I would recommend that you contact either a licensed demonologist or local poison control center immediately, for your own safety.
And if you suspect that you or someone you love is being fondled or inappropriately touched by any demon or other unclean spirit, TELL AN ADULT IMMEDIATELY. Just because a revenant chooses to live it's life in an incorporeal state, it does not mean it is above the law.
Why Was I Possessed?The first question a person often has upon realizing that their body is being controlled by an evil, otherworldly force is: "Why Me?" I would answer this question with another question: "Why Not You?" According to old books like the Christianity Bible and the Muslim Book of Muslims, we are all sinners and unfortunately, bodies of sinners are the favored vessels of demons. Some of you may deny that you sin, but you do whether you believe it or not.
For example: Have you ever picked up a penny off the sidewalk? Have you ever read from a book or magazine in the store without paying for it? Of course you have, and I hate to break it to you but when you do either of these things, you are stealing. You are stealing it and stealing is a sin. In god's eyes, stealing a penny (or reading from an unpurchased book) is no different from murdering a child or committing check fraud.
The same goes for demons. They love to posses thieves because of the darkness that lies in their hearts. This is why any human can become possessed.
However, there are certain types of people who are said to be more possession-prone than others. What traits do these people normally have? I'm glad you asked. You are considered HIGHLY susceptible to demons if you...
- Drink Alcohol or use Medicines
- Forget to Go To Sleep
- Engage in Acts Which Incite Pleasure
- Are a Magician
- Wipe Food on the Sofa
- Keep Primates as Pets
- Watch Films
- Visit Mexico
- Wear Dirty (Soiled) Clothing
- Own Pets
If one or more of these actions describes your lifestyle, you should be extra careful. Try to avoid demons altogether. Don't ride the subway. Don't take a taxicab or go outside. If you hear about a party where there is going to be demons, don't go. You'll save yourself a lot of trouble.
Casting Out The DemonOnce you have confirmed the possession, it's time to get rid of that mean old demon for good! Certainly there are a number of "popular" ways to do this, but you should really only use the following methods to ensure that the spirit does not return. Follow these steps carefully:
1. First, Try Asking Nicely.Many times those who are possessed will curse or "cuss out" a demon because of all the trouble it has caused them. Not only is this rude, it is also ineffective. This will only anger the darkling, causing him to stick around longer, out of spite. So why not try some compassion for once? Ask the demon to leave politely. You might be surprised at the answer you get!
2. Gather a PosseIf the spirit still refuses to leave, you should then proceed to ask around town to see if anybody might be interested in helping you cast out the demon. You will need at least 4 able-bodied Christian men who are stout of heart, sound of mind, and pure of spirit. These men should be at least 34 years of age and should also be virgins, possessing only love for Jesus (one of the characters from the bible) in their hearts and throbbing loins.
3. Determine The Demon's True NameDemon's are obligated by law to give their true names on request, but many use the near-anonymity of a possession as an excuse to flout the rules. If a demon refuses to give you a name or gives you a name you know to be fake, they are violating federal guidelines and could face punishment (up to and including termination). Ask to speak to a supervisor. If they refuse, record the time of the call and any other information you might have about the demon for future reference.
4. Read ScriptureTake turns reading passages from the bible to the possessed person. Almost any portion will do, but try to stay away from the Old Testament, as this will usually be a demon's favorite part. It's best to stick to droning, dull passages that ramble on and on about love and faith and shit like that. Many demons will become so annoyed at having to listen to these passages that they will simply de-posses the person and leave the room rather than sit through another second of it.
5. Douse The Person in Holy FluidsIf there's one thing an evil spirit hates more than anything, it's holy liquids. So it stands to reason that pouring these types of things over the possessed person would be a good way to drive a demon from their body. Now you might be wondering: "Just what exactly constitutes a 'Holy' Bodily Fluid?" The answer to this question is not entire entirely clear, but the Catholic Church defines "Holy Fluids" as "A liquid which is excreted or discharged from an orifice belonging to a figure of religious significance." It is also important to note that these figures need not be Christian!
For example, the tears of a Pope would be considered a Holy Fluid. and would likely be extremely effective in driving a lesser hobgoblin from the body of a loved one. Here are a few other common examples of Holy Fluids:
- An Archbishop's Spittle
- Seepage from the Pineal Gland of a Rabbi
- Pus From The Gaping Chest Wound of a Catholic Priest
- The Cerebrospinal Fluid of a Cardinal
- Sweat from The Inner Thigh of St. Thomas Aquinas
- The Gastric Juices of a Buddhist Monk
- A Vial of Billy Graham's Man Seed
If All Else Fails, Learn to Live With ItIf you try everything listed on this page and the demon is still around...I think you should probably just give up. My advice to you would be to learn to live with the demon (placate it with country music and sweets, etc). While I'm certain there are many resources out there available to people who are "permapossessed", frankly I can't really be bothered to do any more research on demons at this point.
You are on your own.

This was a very difficult time for us.
We now own 4 dachshunds. I am glad to find someone who has the same kind of "fun" mind as I do for dogs names. Only one of ours has a "normal" name. His name is Baxter. He turned 13 this last Christmas Eve. Here is where the fun comes in. Our next doxie is named Carrots...he is 10, then we have Biskits, he is 6 and the last one is Pickles and he is 7. So, don't feel alone with the "funky and oh so cute" names. I love some of the choices you are looking at and can't wait to see pictures of your newest family member.

OPINION - Kentucky Derby 139
NEWS BLOG (WSAU) It's Kentucky Derby weekend.
For those who don't mind risking a few dollars, here are my Kentucky Derby picks.
My pick to win is a longshot: Revolutionary
The horse's people-connections are impeccable. The dark bay colt is owned by WinStar Farms, one of the best breeding and racing stables in the country. WinStar's best horses are trained by Todd Pletcher, who has never won the Kentucky Derby but is among the nation's leading horse-conditioners year after year. Revolutionary's breeder is Wil Farish, who is known for preferring stamina over speed. War Pass is Revolutionary's sire; AP Indy is his maternal grand-sire.
Revolutionary won his last two races by a head – one circling the field, and one by rallying in-between horses in the stretch. Being able to win "in traffic" is critical in the 20-horse Kentucky Derby field.
There are knocks against Revolutionary… his regular jockey, Javier Castellano, decided to ride another horse (Normandy Invasion), and Revolutionary's last two races were run in slow times. No matter. Calvin Borel will ride on Saturday. He's one of the few jockeys who regularly rides at Churchill Downs for the entire season. He's won the Kentucky Derby three times, each time saving ground and threading through traffic for a seemingly overmatched horse.
I also like Black Onxy, who will be a heavy longshot. He's been racing against easier horses on the turf in Florida. His jockey, Joe Bravo, could have been cleaning up at Belmont Park while other riders were out-of-town on Saturday. Bravo and trainer Kelly Breen are a potent team at mid-Atlantic racetracks. I don't think they'd make the trip to Louisville if they didn't think they had a chance.
Normandy Invasion is also a reasonable choice. The knock against him is that he's never won against winners.
I don't like the favorites in tomorrow's race. Goldencents is the horse many of the insiders are picking, based on his Santa Anita Derby win a month ago. Many California horses flop in the Kentucky Derby, and I think he'll be too close to the pace and will wilt before the finish line. Verrazano has never lost, but he has only 4 lifetime starts. Many people will pick him, but he may not have the seasoning to win. Orb has won all three of his races this year, but his times have been slow.
There are two other interesting story-lines:
Goldencents' jockey, Kevin Krigger, might become the first black jockey to win the Kentucky Derby in the modern era. In the 19th century black jockeys were ubiquitous; thoroughbred racing was considered too dangerous for white 'gentlemen' riders.
A female jockey has never won the Kentucky Derby, and Rosie Napravnik has a reasonably good chance of changing that on Mylute. Horse racing is the only sport where females compete against males on even terms. Calling her the best "girl jockey" short-changes her accomplishments. During my vacaction in New Orleans I saw her regularly out-ride the men. She's in the upper echelon of riders in the entire country.
Lastly, a sad announcement from my horse racing family. For those of you who don't know, my uncles are small-time thoroughbred owners and breeders in Oklahoma. Slewonderful, the best horse they'd ever owned, was put down due to infirmaries from old age. She was 22, and had been retired for many years.
No one would confuse her with a Kentucky Derby horse. She was a hopeless bleeder. But she also won $100,000 in her racing career, and finished first in two minor stakes races. Getting your picture taken in the winners circle is a wonderful feeling. Slewonderful got them there.

Hundreds of gun enthusiasts flocked over the weekend to a Lake County gun show criticized by area law enforcement leaders after a study showed nearly 20 percent of the guns recovered by Chicago police over the last five years came from Indiana.
Lake County Commissioner Gerry Scheub said the county will honor its 2013 contract with Central Indiana Gunshows, which promised safe, family-friendly events. The county collects about $1,500 in rent per show, and five more are scheduled this year.
"We have the county police there to watch it and not once in 16 years did a county policeman tell me we had a problem with these shows, so I don't have a problem with them," Scheub told The Times of Munster for a story Sunday.
The show was the first in Lake County since Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart in Chicago called a summit of Illinois and Indiana police and prosecutors last month to discuss strategies to stem the export of Indiana guns. Dart's summit came as Chicago seeks to stem gun violence. The city had more than 500 homicides last year, many of them shooting deaths.
Chicago has a strict gun ordinance that requires gun owners to be fingerprinted, undergo a background check, pass a training class and pay fees that can be higher than the price of the weapons. A University of Chicago Crime Lab study had found nearly 20 percent of the guns confiscated by Chicago police from 2008 to 2012 were purchased in Indiana. Last year, Chicago police seized more than 7,400 guns -- about three times more than officers in New York.
Lake County Sheriff John Buncich, a participant at the summit with Dart, asked the Board of Commissioners to rein in private gun sales at the gun shows, but the commissioners refused.
More than a thousand gun enthusiasts attended the show Saturday at the Lake County Fairgrounds Industrial Arts Building, looking over more than 100 tables displaying handguns, rifles, shotguns, assault weapons, knives and other weapons. On one table sat a sign saying, "Cash for legal machine guns."
Dan Hedger of Central Indiana Gunshows said news coverage of the gun show dispute appeared to have boosted Saturday's crowd.
Loaded weapons were not permitted inside the show, which continued Sunday.
A number of tables displayed Federal Firearms Licenses or Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives Over-the-Counter Firearms Transaction forms that buyers must complete. Signs around the building warned, "The sale of firearms to Illinois residents without being properly transferred to an Illinois firearms dealer is strictly prohibited by law."
Hedger said he cannot stop transactions among gun show customers.
"It's legal. They could do it out in the parking lot or at yard sales. At least this is a controlled environment," Hedger said.
Most people in the crowd were white men over the age of 30. Some fathers had children with them.
"It's a guy's day out," said Rodger Blythe, owner of Blythe Sports Shop of Griffith.
Corinth Bishop, a veteran defense lawyer and former gun show participant, described the show's typical customers.
"Most of the people at these shows are collectors looking around for something in particular or others who've seen something at Gander Mountain or Cabela's and then they come to the show to dicker with someone at the show for a better price," Bishop said.

As the first day of fishing ended in the 2014 SeaVee/Mercury Mayor's Cup Bill Fish Tournament on Friday, team Notorious holds the lead over the Rockstar OG team with the fastest time since both are tied with eight releases.
Team Just Do It, the winning crew in 2013 which won more than $55,000 in prize money, is only down by three releases.
"We were south of Fowley Light by Triumph Reef most of the day," Just Do It captain Brett Dudas said. "I believe the two top boats were fishing up north. I don't think we saw a fish for the first four hours of the tournament. Mostly all singles, from 12:30 on. There was really no rhyme or reason for us."
The top angler for the day was Ariel Pared of Top Vee with three sails released. He is tied in releases with five other anglers.
"We had a great day. We finished third overall, and I am top male angler at least for [Friday]; things may change [Saturday]," Pared said. "We fished the new SeaVee 430 Fish Around and used the new Shimano BFC reels that are insanely fast. We fished south and caught most of the fish on Google Eyes."
The top female for the day was Just Do It's Stephanie Gordon with just one release.
"Sometimes all it takes is one," Gordon said.
Fishing will officially begin at 7:30 a.m. Saturday with the call for lines-out at 3 p.m.
There will be a party dockside at Monty's Raw Bar in Coconut Grove for spectators who would like to watch the teams come in or see the fun fish being weighed-in after 3 p.m., with the award ceremony at 6 p.m.

Family Fiddle
The Julian Family Fiddle Camp is proud to offer instruction by some of the best musicians and teachers around today. Indeed, we are excited to have the innovative flatpick guitarist and singer, Scott Law, lead our guitar instruction for 2014. We're also pleased to announce that one of the best mandolin players and mandolin instructors on the scene today, Sharon Gilchrist, will be joining our faculty for the first time as well. We're continuing in 2014 to offer instruction in old-time banjo, and are pleased to note that Chris Coole will be coming out from Toronto for the purpose. Chris is one of the young new "monsters" on old-time banjo, and is an acclaimed performer and instructor. As for fiddle, the Colorado and Texas State Fiddle Champion, Katie Glassman, will once again be our lead fiddle instructor. While she's expert in several traditional fiddle styles, Katie will provide a couple of specialized workshops on contest fiddling and Gypsy Jazz. Our latest addition to our list of Master Teachers is upright bassist, Gene Libbea. Gene's list of credits is long and illustrious, including twelve years of performing with the Nashville Bluegrass Band, recordings with many other great artists, and winner of two Grammy awards. Given the phenomenal response to Rebecca Stout's workshops in Appalachian flatfoot dance and ballad singing in 2013, she'll not only be back in 2014, but will be offering a full contingent of classes and workshops on flatfoot and buck dancing, and the singing of old Appalacian ballads. More details about all our 2014 faculty can be found on our Instructors page.
As long as you can play a couple of simple tunes on fiddle, mandolin, guitar, banjo or upright bass - or if you aspire to move your feet in the way of that cool old-style Appalachian flat foot dance, we've a class and instructor suited just for you! People of all ages and walks of life come to the Camp, and we recognize they do so for a variety of reasons. While everone seeks some fun and instruction, we are particularly sensitive to:
Fiddling's more than an instrument, it's an attitude - an attitude that is warm to playing and/or dancing to acoustic string music with others of all ages and backgrounds. It's social, it's fun, and a pure and direct way to enjoy old friends and make new ones.

Make Your Thanksgiving Meal Memorable
As much as we love Thanksgiving for myriad reasons, this quintessential American holiday also poses a perennial problem: what to serve, especially when entertaining guests, some of whom may not be turkey enthusiasts. Fortunately, Allen Brothers offers a wealth of mouth-watering ideas for a complete menu from start to finish, including awe-inspiring Prime roasts, Berkshire pork tenderloin, honey-glazed spiral cut hams and other gourmet main courses. We also have you covered with delicious side dishes, appetizers and decadent desserts, all of which look and taste home-made. And it goes without saying our all-natural turkey is as good as it gets.
To make things even easier, Allen Brothers offers cpmplete meal assortments like our All-Natural Unstuffed Whole Turkey that comes with Creamed Spinach & Caramel Apple Pie. The creamed spinach is comprised of fresh spinach creamed with white cheddar cheese, garlic, onion and a hint of Pernod. The luscious caramel apple pie features a tender, flaky crust filled with rich caramel and luscious apples. Not a turkey fan? This same assortment is available with our center cut USDA Prime Beef Tenderloin Roast as a main course.
For anyone who has ever been stuck with the often unenviable and messy task of carving a turkey, Allen Brothers understands. That's why we recently introduced our complete meal of Stuffed Turkey Breast, Green Bean Casserole and Rocky Road Cake. If that sounds delicious it's because it truly is…we take an all natural, plump turkey breast, debone it, then roll it around a savory stuffing of ground sausage, cornbread, sage, celery and onion. Totally yummy. As an accompaniment, our classic Green Bean Casserole, the one everyone already loves, is made with fresh green beans baked with homemade cream of mushroom soup and topped with crispy french-fried onions. For dessert, it doesn't get any better than rocky road cake, which is a 6″ chocolate cake topped with giant marshmallows and peanuts iced with chocolate ganache. A real taste sensation.
If you actually enjoy cooking and stuffing a turkey yourself, Allen Brothers can still make your life simpler with many succulent prepared side dishes that will please any palate. To wit: our Chipotle Sweet Potatoes where smokey chipotle peppers and sweet potatoes are perfectly balanced with brown sugar and a pecan streusel topping. Or our aptly named Loaded Mashed Potatoes–a small mountain of buttery mashed potatoes jam packed with smoky bacon, cheese, scallions and lush sour cream. Creamy, delicious, and practically a meal in itself.
There's much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving, so why not make your holiday meal memorable with a little help from your friends at Allen Brothers? Enjoy!
Allen B.

This painting is called Blue Forest. It is derived from a photo I took in October of an Idaho fall landscape. I haven't done any painting in a while, or a landscape for that matter, so it was a fun project.
24"X36" oil on plywood.
Completed work: Forgotten Future. This painting is a reflection of how the brain struggles to remember how to solve problems or "puzzles" that were once easy. 28X30" oil on masonite.
This is the reference photo I took for the painting, Forgotten Future.
This is the under painting for my most recent painting titled Forgotten Future.
Watercolor painting of Cass Lake.
Completed work: Second Magic Hour.
This painting is derived from the beauty that occurs during illumination of the sky during the second magic hour. The first magic hour is a term photographers and film creators use to identify the time in day when longer wave lengths from the sun are reaching the Earth's surface. Normal people know of this time to be an hour right before the sun goes down. The colors that are associated with "magic hour" are usually a red/orange or sepia. These colors blanket the surface and give a very attractive look for photographers and movie makers. The reason for this change in color or "magic hour" is because as the sun sets, its radiating light has to travel through more and more atmosphere. During the middle of the day, when the sun is at it's highest point in the sky, its light is penetrating the least amount of atmosphere. Because of this only the shorter wave lengths of light (blue and indigo) are absorbed by all the gas molecules in the atmosphere and displayed to the human eye. All the other colors, green, red, orange, etc, are scattered. This is why the sky is blue. As the day goes on, the sun drops lower and lower in the sky. When it does this, its light has to travel through more and more atmosphere. During sunset, and right before sunset the sun's radiating light scatters all the colors of the visible spectrum except for the longer wavelengths (orange and red). This is why you get this orange/red color during sunset.
The second magic hour will occur about 20 minutes to an hour after the sun has set. When this happens, the sky is illuminated by a soft blue. This is because the sun is no longer directly shining through the atmosphere. All the gas molecules in the atmosphere reflect all wavelengths except for the shorter blue wavelengths. These gas molecules in the atmosphere absorb and reflect this blue color. This makes everything appear to be different shades of blue. This is what I wanted to base this painting on.
The reason why everything in the painting appears blurry, except for some areas is due to the fact that after the sun has set. The human eye hasn't yet adjusted to the reduced light. The rods in our eyes need about 20 to 30 minutes of pure blackness to generate a chemical called visual purple. When this is created the human eye can see light that is 100,000 times dimmer than it normally could during the day. Since, this painting is depicting a time right after sunset, the eye is blurred and is easy to confuse.
A half way point on Second Magic Hour.
This is the under-painting for my newest painting, Second Magic Hour.
